The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection

Chapter 77

"Please save her, Mr. Zeller."

Chain Asura knew who Felix truly was. Naturally, Felix was the most suitable one to treat

Xena at that moment.

Yet, Felix simply shook his head. "He didn't intend to kill her that blow was to just make her pass out. Her convulsions are due to her own physical state. She'll be fine after a while."

Chain Asura was shocked. Felix clearly learned his medical skills from the miracle doctor, Gerald. How remarkable of him to know what was going on at just a glance. But why did Inferno leave Xena alive? "Also, someone's coming."

Upon hearing this, Chain Asura quickly turned toward Xena. Sure enough, an emergency call button was flashing, signaling for the Phoenix Legion to send support. It seemed that the button was triggered right after Xena had been struck.

Felix didn't plan to leave since this was his home. Xena's condition was something he had discovered during her previous treatment. It wasn't dangerous as of now, but it could pose

a threat in the future.

Of course, he didn't plan to meddle until the prenuptial agreement was finalized. Besides, even if he told Xena about it, she wouldn't believe him.

Just then, a large number of troops from the Phoenix Legion arrived at the scene, including Belle and Jordan.

"Milady!"

"Xena!"

The two of them rushed over to Xena hurriedly as she was still convulsing.

"Belle, leave it to me!" Jordan said.

Although Belle was anxious, she knew she couldn't be of much help. She nodded to him and approached Chain Asura. "Lord Asura, is this that Inferno you all spoke of?" ""Yes. He's dead now."

Belle heaved a sigh of relief. This was her first time seeing Xena injured so badly-she had blood at the corners of her mouth, and she was convulsing continuously all while being

unconscious.

"Felix, why are you here?"

He met Belle's gaze and chuckled in amusement. "Interesting-this is my house, and

you're asking why I'm here?"

Belle frowned. "It's your house, alright. But didn't I show you the regulatory permit? Do you know you're violating the military orders?"

She thought that Felix was extremely lucky. If weren't for Chain Asura killing Inferno, just the shockwaves from the fight alone could have killed him on the spot. After all, he was just a mere martial artist. "Belle, I've temporarily treated Xena with acupuncture. We'd still need to bring her back for further treatment-we can't just do it here Jordan said.

Fortunately, he had spoken up. Belle didn't want to continue dealing with Felix and started giving orders.

Chain Asura said, "Thank you so much for today, Mr. Zeller. I'll report back now."

After everyone left, Felix entered his villa and turned on the lights. He was finally able to stay in his own house freely.

As a new day dawned, Xena woke up.

"How are you feeling, milady?"

Seeing that Belle and Jordan were present, Xena nodded. "I feel great. There's not much of a problem."

Suddenly, her expression changed. "Inferno! Wait. Why am I here?"

Gently pressing on Xena's arm, Belle said softly, "You don't have to worry, milady.

Inferno's dead! You were unconscious when we arrived. Thankfully, you have the foresight to have Jordan on standby with us."

Inferno was already dead? Xena didn't even bother to thank Jordan for saving her once again. Shocked, she asked, "How did he die? Who killed him?" "You and Chain Asura."

At that moment, Belle was extremely confused. She gave Jordan a look, silently asking if Xena's injury wasn't fully healed yet.
