Liam Stone waved his hands. One of his men who was carrying a steel rod behind him spoke. “Boss, there was once someone who came to our boxing gym with a streak of ten consecutive wins. He thought he had earned a huge sum of money, but he didn’t understand one basic principle. That principle was, it’s difficult to use two hands to defeat four hands. That so-called victor could not handle all of us and got beaten to a pulp. He knew then how ‘awesome’ he really was!”“You heard that? I admit, you’re pretty skilled to be able to force Dario Moore to retreat. You’re also pretty great since you could make Tyson Woods stand behind you.” Liam snickered coldly. “Problem is, you’re both on my turf now. Is this the time to act cocky?” Harvey York couldn’t be bothered to beat around the bush and asked directly, “I heard that you’re backing the Brooke family and are making life difficult for us?”Liam furrowed his brows. He chuckled, “Brother, do you need to start a big war just for the sake o
Liam Stone clapped. The TV in the match hall switched on and displayed Shane and Rosalie Naiswell, both tied firmly to their chairs. Shane’s voice was inaudible, and his head was bleeding profusely. It seemed he had been hit by the steel pipes Liam’s underlings were carrying.“Mr. Naiswell is the senior of the Naiswell family. You dare touch him?” Harvey looked at the TV in disbelief. Wasn’t Liam acting too outrageously? Didn’t he know what kind of man Shane was? If he offended Shane, the entire Naiswell family could swoop in and kill him with ease.“Why wouldn’t I? Not only am I going to kill him, I’m also going to take that woman to my bed. When I’ve had enough of her, I’ll get my men to dump her in an alley somewhere. Who’d know that I’m the culprit?” Liam laughed coldly. “I’m giving you a choice. If you want them to stay alive, surrender. If you don’t, I’ll make you watch them die. That woman is your lover, isn’t she?”Liam continued to laugh, feeling deeply confident.Harvey d
“Sir, maybe he wants to make you a live-in son-in-law too. I heard his sister-in-law is stunningly beautiful.” One of Liam’s underlings remarked, laughing. “She’s still in middle school, too!” Liam Stone’s face crumpled in mock fear. “That won’t do, will it? I’ve been a thug for so many years. If I follow this worthless piece of trash and be a live-in son-in-law like him, I’ll lose my reputation for sure!”“Boss, I heard that he even helps to prepare water for his mother-in-law to wash her feet.” Another underling said. “He hasn’t even touched his wife’s hands in the three years of his marriage!” “Tsk, tsk, tsk. How marvelous. I admit, I’m shaking in my boots!” Liam clicked his tongue in astonishment. “I want to ask you a serious question, Harvey York. Do you still call yourself a man? Why don’t you pull down your pants and check if your junior is still there? You’re trash! Is there still any meaning to your life?” Harvey was too lazy to offer any rebuttal. He jumped down from t
“E-Everything’s fine…” Rosalie Naiswell saw that the man who charged in was none other than Harvey York. Surprise and delight filled her. However, she quickly regained her composure. With red-rimmed eyes, she stammered, “I’m fine, but Grandpa, he…”Harvey fled to Shane Naiswell’s side and placed his finger under Shane’s nose. His face crumpled. “Quick, we have to bring him to a hospital. He should be able to make it…”Harvey carried Shane in his arms and dashed out. Rosalie, panicked, trailed after him from behind.“Tyson Woods. From this day on, there is no Liam Stone in Niumhi. Don’t disappoint me…”Harvey ordered before he left.Tyson’s whole body shuddered at the order. He had just made a call earlier, and he understood clearly what Harvey meant. It seemed tonight would bring a big change to the streets of Niumhi. From this day forth, Liam Stone would cease to exist.Tyson entered the VIP room, respect written all over his face. Liam Stone, initially an arrogant and dominee
A man making a huge ruckus when he should be asking the hospital for help. This was the first time everyone had seen a sight like this.At this moment, everyone looked at Harvey York like he was a madman. “What are you doing?! Guards! Call the guards, this man is causing a lot of trouble. Force him out!”The nurse was obviously afraid. But after looking closer at the shabby clothing that Harvey was wearing, she glared at him full of disdain. ‘What is a man wearing stall bought clothes even doing here? Who is he trying to scare?’“Yeah! Do you think a hospital is a place where you can just shout whenever you want?!”“We know you’re in a rush, if you’re hurrying then go register at the counter! And what’s wrong with your family anyway, only you showed up for a matter this big. Are you willing to take responsibility if anything bad were to happen?”“We save lives and help the weak, yes of course but who isn’t panicking in the emergency room? First thing comes first and payment co
Pow!In a moment, not even giving Taylor Stone the chance to spout nonsense, Harvey York furiously kicked him over to the ground. He turns around, staring at the nurse coldly.“Are you saving the person or not?”“Did you just… hit another person?”The nurse was shocked yet again.‘Does this man not know who Liam Stone is? How dare he even hit his brother like that? They’ll be wanting his head on a pike soon after.’“What’s the matter?”A gentle voice of a woman echoed here during this moment.Harvey unconsciously turned his head around looking at this enchanting woman that wore a white coat, standing there gracefully. She was not wearing any makeup, but even then she still looked heavenly.She had a real good figure too. She could not hide it despite wearing a large white coat.The woman noticeably had never witnessed such a violent scene as she was slightly astonished after seeing what had just happened. “Director Graves, you came in at just the right time. This man has be
“If you have no money to see a doctor then don’t come here to make a scene!”“Right! All you people are the same. Coming in here just to screw with Director Graves!”“Everyone knows that Director Graves has a parental heart, she will prioritize to save lives no matter what. All of you are just taking advantage of that!”“Ahhhh, it is said that Director Graves did not pay for salaries for half a year because of people like you. If you don’t have the money, why are you out here robbing ours?!”Ella Graves was about to walk into the emergency operating room when she heard about the talk that everyone was having. She looked back and smiled.“Please, stop aimlessly accusing anyone. People’s lives matter and a doctor’s duty is always to save lives and help the wounded whenever needed. And besides, I do trust this gentleman.”Despite Ella’s pure and kind-hearted nature, she still thought that Harvey York was a trustworthy man with a quick glance. This kind of trust felt like an intuitio
The vice president remained still after seeing this poor man with an Amex Black Card and the medical staff visibly confused by the sight.‘What is even happening right now?’Yulian’s look on his face changed immediately and cold sweat dripped down his face. His gaze landed on Harvey York again moments after and chuckled coldly.Yulian was a person with knowledge. There were only five Amex Black Cards in all of Niumhi. The people that own them were nothing less than prominent with servants everywhere they go and vast collections of luxurious cars.‘A poor fool like this having an Amex Black Card? Who is he trying to fool?’“You think you can deceive people with a fake Amex Black Card that you bought online?”Yulian coldly smiled as if he had seen the truth.Yulian rushed toward a nurse on the side and said, “Take this to the reception counter and see if you can actually use the card.”After the nurse had left, Yulian had ordered Taylor Stone and his men to surround Harvey York.
"You're someone who has experience, too. You know that you'll need at least three hours to prepare to get this many military helicopters deployed. It's not something that you can do in an instant. It means that while you're still fighting with Sora and his men, Isoroku has been standing by in this place."Not to mention that we Fujiharas will never work with them before getting what we want. Which means that the Origin Sword Style elites already knew that you will most likely survive even if you're at a disadvantage. That's why they've been staying here for a long time."While everyone knew that Kenta was probably just spewing nonsense, Clarion was still partially convinced when he heard how Kenta made his argument sound plausible. Could it be that Kenta was not the one pulling the strings here?Harvey narrowed his eyes and waved his hand. "At the very least, Kenta's right about his social standing being insufficient to work with Isoroku. Not to mention that now that they have obtai
At this time, the helicopter was passing through rows of mountains and valleys. This area was uninhabited. After passing through this uninhabited area, one would arrive at the Golden Triangle. Once one passed through the Golden Triangle, one would reach Hyperborea and finally Grand City.It was around this time that Harvey could feel a burst of murderous intent."Crap! Everyone, brace yourselves!" Clarion suddenly yelled as he looked in front of him from the front seats. He even took out a cigarette, lit it up, and took a deep huff to increase his mental focus as his expression darkened.Harvey quickly walked over to the front and narrowed his eyes. Then, he saw a swarm of helicopters flying in mid-air in a tight formation. Harvey looked at the flag on the helicopters with a smirk and gave Kenta a glance. "This is your so-called guarantee?"Kenta's expression also darkened as he looked in front in disbelief. After a while, he finally spoke in a shaky voice, "Forget about the helico
Daichi had already checked the Chapter of Ascension earlier back in Grand City, but he could not leave with it. Only after Harvey gave his green light would Rachel pass the Chapter of Ascension to Daichi.Harvey gave Kenta a look and then pulled out his phone and dialed a number. "Pass him the thing and escort him out."Harvey was straight-faced when he said that. While he had read it through, he did not believe that the Chapter of Ascension would really allow one to reach Unity between Nature and Man. It was not that Harvey was underestimating Hale, but as a martial art elite himself, he knew very well that there were many things required an epiphany to comprehend, and not just some so-called Chapter of Ascension.If that thing was really as effective as people said, Hale would not be hunted for more than a decade. In no time, a few hours went by. Kenta picked up his phone and after listening to the other side, he smiled. "You really are an honest man. Working with you is a very pl
Kenta continued to speak to Harvey in a chatty manner. "Everyone here can see how powerful you are. Unless we can kill you without any doubt, we won't be able to survive your revenge later on. That's why… You can trust me."Harvey looked at Kenta coldly. "Of course you won't be able to kill me. However, I need to make sure Mandy and my men are safe. That's why there's no need to waste your breath here."All you need to do is to give me an answer. Will you come with us? Before we leave, someone will let Daichi examine the Chapter of Ascension. Once we've left Sky Plane for about an hour, that person will then pass the Chapter of Ascension to Daichi. Don't worry. I'm a man of my word."Kenta smiled. "We'll believe you if you're willing to personally guarantee it. It's decided then. I believe we can work well together. Now, let's go."As soon as Kenta finished saying that, he waved his hand. All the Islander elites stepped aside despite the weapons in their hands. This was also a way
Slap!Harvey gave another slap at Jun's face."So what if I did? I'll kill you if you waste anymore of my time!" Before Jun could even finish, Harvey had already grabbed him by his neck. Onmyojis are physically weaker than most, so Jun could not fight back at all while being held like that."You fool! Release Mr. Jun!""Mr. Jun is one of the best among the onmyojis in Sky Plane!""Don't show any disrespect!"All the Islanders roared when they saw Harvey disrespected Jun so much. They quickly drew their long swords and pointed them at Harvey. Dozens of people also started to approach Mandy. Clarion and the others also reacted quickly, protecting Mandy behind them. The atmosphere between both sides became extremely tense in just one moment.Harvey's hand never released Jun's throat as he calmly turned to Kenta and said, "Alright, Kenta. Let's continue the discussion of our three conditions. The first condition is that you must escort us out of Sky Plane and guarantee our safety. A
"You really are very impressive, Kenta. It's quite rare for someone like you to exist within the Fujihara family," commented Harvey after he took a deep breath and loosened his fists. "I have a feeling that someone like you will eventually climb up the ladder. Who knows, you might be the next Island Nation's Emperor."All the Islanders around them had strange looks after they heard what Harvey had just said. Even Kenta's eyes twitched before he replied helplessly, "You're joking, Mr. Harvey. I'm just someone from the branch family. The emperor's throne has always belonged to the main branch and the main branch alone."Then, Kenta changed the subject after that. "Since it sounds like you have a change of mind, does it mean you're willing to fulfill your part of the promise?"Harvey calmly said, "Not exactly. This is just a simple trade, and so is the trade's content. I'll give you the Chapter of Ascension, and you promise three things. That's reasonable…"At this point, the mysterio
Looking at Kenta's expression, Harvey's eyes narrowed. The Islanders could become fanatical most of the time, and he knew that very well from how Kenta was presenting himself. Their people believed in collectivism to the point of radicalism. One single word from their superiors was enough to make them sacrifice themselves and fight to the bitter end, not to mention if they were convinced if it was for the greater good.In short, if he really refused to give them the Chapter of Ascension, then Kenta would really give up on this pretentious act and detonate the Emerald Jewel. However, while the Emerald Jewel could injure him, he knew it could not kill him. But, Mandy and the others were another case entirely. If the Emerald Jewel was detonated, none of them could escape.Harvey frowned, realizing that the situation was getting more complicated."Mr. Harvey, you understand that the Chapter of Ascension isn't worth the lives of the people here. Not to mention if you do manage to obtain
"Firstly, this is Sky Plane. This is the Sacred Martial Art Training Ground for the Island Nation. Based on the promise made between each of the Sacred Training Grounds, we can consider one as hostile if they enter without an invitation. That's why when you barged into this place without invitation and were suspected of murdering the citizens of Sky Plane, we have the right to stop you from leaving the place and investigate."Secondly, Mr. Sora is a citizen of Sky Plane. It is within reason for us to protect his safety. Thirdly, Grand City will need to give us a reasonable explanation for this."And finally, if any of you refuse to cooperate, then according to the laws of Sky Plane's Admin Board, we have the right to kill all the intruders!" said Kenta with a wide grin."I know you're extremely strong, Mr. Harvey. So strong that you're the best here. But the question is, what's the use if you have personal strength in this situation? Even if you can defeat a hundred, can you defeat
"Mr. Harvey, I know how powerful you are and how invincible you can be. I also have a lot of respect toward you and wouldn't dare show you any insolence," explained Kenta with a harmonious smile. "However, I need to negotiate with you as it's part of my duties. I hope you can calm down so we can talk."First of all, Ms. Mandy is alright. While it looks like you have to come and save her, you need to trust me when I said if it's not for our effort, the men from Origin Sword Style wouldn't have waited until today. With their powers, if we didn't try and stop them with everything we can, Ms. Mandy would be a corpse now. You have to give credit where credit is due, don't you think? I believe someone of your caliber won't deny it, right?"Secondly, I can swear by the name of the Ruling Royal Family that everything that happened today had nothing to do with us. Since we have decided to make a trade with you, we won't stab you in the back. Our conscience is clear when it's regarding this."
