As time passed, the guests took their seats, awaiting the start of the ceremony. The Walsh family had opted for two wedding ceremonies. This was a grand one, meant for a bigger crowd, including friends and business associates. An intimate ceremony was planned for three days later, inviting only their close family members. It was a testament to the family's penchant for elaborate customs.At the front tables, Christie sat on the left and Vivian on the right, commanding everyone's attention. Sharing the table with them was none other than Nala, a clear indicator of her elevated status within this gathering. "What should we do? We still can't find Mr. Zeller, but surely he's heard the news by now. He can't act rashly!" Ryan mumbled anxiously, still feeling guilty about lying during the Eastern Mountain incident."Mr. Gibson, what's the point of worrying? Can we really influence his decisions?" George glanced at Vivian's table with a bitter smile, knowing she could be the wild card i

The moment Vivian spoke, all eyes turned to her, each gaze filled with shock and disbelief. The thought that she might be supporting Felix seemed unbelievable at first, but as she moved to stand beside him, reality sank in. "Milady, w-what does this mean?" Dominic stammered, confused. He was under the impression that Vivian was here as their honored wedding guest."Today, Dragon Alliance will fully support Felix," Vivian declared firmly.A collective gasp swept through the crowd. If there had been any doubt about Vivian's stance before, it was now crystal clear—she had not come for the Walsh family's wedding at all, but to back Felix.At this moment, everyone wondered who Felix was and what he had done to command such an unwavering alliance from the Dragon Lord herself. After all, it was clear from her statement that there would be no compromise."Yvonne, come here," Felix called out.Yvonne stood frozen, hands covering her mouth in disbelief. Even though she knew of Felix's c

Felix turned to face Nala, who met his gaze with fierce determination. Just when everyone thought the conflict was over, Nala's intervention brought a deafening silence to the room. Everyone knew Nala's significance—not just for her mysteriously powerful family background, but for her own commanding presence. Her willingness to challenge both Moonshadow and Dragon Alliances spoke volumes about her authority.Felix retorted, "I've been more than reasonable today. Yvonne is safe, and your deal with the Walsh family stands. Don't push your luck, Lady Nala!"The crowd gasped. In all of Dragonia, Felix was the first to dare speak to Nala so brazenly in public. Even Nala, known for her composure, could not hide the icy anger in her glare. Felix continued, "Yvonne remains yours. I only want to ensure you'll never treat her as a mere tool again. Is that so difficult? Answer me!" Nala was about to respond, but Felix stepped closer. Even though he had lost his martial abilities, his

Felix was surprised by the extraordinary changes in his body after absorbing the first ancient dragon's spine. The Dragons Destroyer technique began to operate at an unprecedented speed, finally reaching its intended path.He could now sense the spiritual energy Gerald had mentioned—a power far more profound than the internal energy other warriors possessed. Felix guessed he must have reached the Innate Realm by now.He remembered when he had faced Vilebane Vernon. At death's door, he broke through to become a Martial Saint—a legendary achievement for most warriors, let alone reaching the mythical Innate Realm. Yet here he was, skyrocketing to new heights simply by using Dragons Destroyer to absorb a single ancient dragon's spine—a feat so incredible that no one would believe it. Moreover, Dragons Destroyer was now rapidly drawing in the essence of the surrounding environment, allowing his power to surge even without active training. …At sunrise, in a picturesque courtyard

Jaden fled in panic on the mountain where Crimson Sage Sect was located, pushing his speed to the limit as he darted through the forest. Having heard Cecil's final, furious roar, he knew the outcome was already sealed."Mr. Black, I swear I'll avenge you! Damn it! How did Felix become so powerful in such a short time?" Jaden wondered in disbelief. Crimson Sage Sect was a major sect filled with powerful martial artists, yet Felix had single-handedly defeated them all. Jaden would not have believed it if he had not witnessed it himself.Suddenly, Jaden stopped, noticing a crater in the ground. He glared at the figure before him and hissed through gritted teeth, "Felix."It was terrifying how quickly Felix had caught up, leaving no time for even a glimmer of escape. "When you kidnapped me, did you ever imagine this day would come?" Felix asked coldly. Jaden swallowed hard, knowing he stood no chance against someone who had just killed Cecil and countless other elite fighters—his
