“What do you mean by that?!”Justin’s face was getting darker; he had a bad feeling about the situation.Harvey calmly replied, “It seems you’ve already forgotten about our little bet since you’re so busy.”“I have reason to remind you of it.”“According to our bet, if Kait gets Star Chaebol’s power of attorney in Mordu…”“You’ll have to step down from your position.”“Speaking of which, Chairman Walker…oh, it’s not appropriate to call you that anymore.”“Right, Mr. Walker. Thank goodness I have a good memory and reminded you in the nick of time.”“If not, you might’ve lost your reputation in the business world!”“After all, you’re the man who’s vying for the position of Mordu’s Longmen branch leader.”“You can’t lose everyone’s trust for you when you’re at the crux of rising to power, right?”The people present were shocked to hear Harvey’s words.A few beautiful higher ups covered the lips, disbelief written all over their faces.Harvey was forcing Justin to resign!Eve
Before Harvey could say anything, Kait spoke up. There was hesitation in her voice.“Harvey, my father just woke up at the hospital. After he woke up, he told me to head to the Walker family’s residence tomorrow.”“He said he’ll explain everything to me in front of the entire family.”“That’s why I think…”“You shouldn’t go tomorrow.”“This is a family scandal, after all.”Kait seemed quite heartbroken.Harvey froze, then realized something.Most likely, Kait had known the truth and didn’t want Harvey to know about it.Her last bit of dignity was on the line. Judging by Kait’s personality, she wouldn’t be able to accept it if Harvey was exposed to the truth about the situation.Without a second thought, Harvey nodded.“Right, you go on your own then. I’ll let Brennan accompany you. If there’s anything wrong, contact me as soon as possible.”“Okay.”Kait nodded.“One more thing. Father had already lost all his power in Walker Corporation. He’s already had a hard enough tim
Someone walked out steadily from the shadows of the hall.He wasn’t too tall, and was only about five foot two. He was slightly bald, and his face looked like it belonged to a monkey.A long and short Island Nation sword was hanging on the sides of his waist. Every step he took emanated a terrifying aura.“An Island Nation Swordsman?!”Justin frowned.“That’s right. Kuroda Taro is an expert of the Shindan Way. His swordsmanship is almost unparalleled within Mordu.”“No matter how strong Rachel is, she probably won’t be able to block a hit from him.”“Sir Walker. With him around, why would you be scared of Rachel?” Lucas said, narrowing his eyes thoughtfully. This was one of his killer trump cards. If this couldn’t help him achieve his goals, then he wouldn’t have called Kuroda out.After all, it would be troublesome for him if outsiders found out that he was working with Island Nation citizens.After sizing up Kuroda for a long while, Justin said slowly, “Prince Jean, surely y
Her beauty could capture all hearts.Any man would’ve been dazzled by the sight and would entertain sinful thoughts about her.Even though there was only one man named Genghis Khan, quite a few others would happily share his interests.But Harvey only took one single glance before he spoke.“Looks like you’ve recovered quite well, Lady Walker. You’re finally in the mood to wear makeup.”Angelina quietly stretched her slender legs and crossed them together, revealing a quick peek of her panties. She smiled and said, “It’s all thanks to your admirable skills, Sir York.”“If it weren’t for you, I could’ve been a vegetable by now.”“How should I express my gratitude for you to feel my sincerity, Sir York?”Harvey replied calmly, “It’s just a business deal, Lady Walker. Don’t talk like we actually have feelings for each other.”“You should know that I would’ve been quite excited to see you as a vegetable if it weren’t for Kait.”“That’s why we should just end this process quickly.
Harvey replied calmly, “What do you think?”Angelina giggled.“I think you’re quite the character, Sir York. You wouldn’t do something this petty.”Harvey said slowly, “Since we made a deal, I’ll always keep my promise. You promised to give Kait a statement, so I’ll help you deal with the chest pain you had since you started training in ancient martial arts.”“Anyway, this isn’t too much trouble.”There was something that Harvey did not say. When Angelina trained in martial arts before, there was another side effect other than the chest pain.But because both her symptoms were completely suppressed, there were no other symptoms that showed up.The moment the two symptoms went away would be the moment where other symptoms would show up one after another.Of course, if Angelina stopped playing petty tricks against him, Harvey wouldn’t mind dealing with all her problems completely without her knowing.Harvey picked up a scalpel as he spoke, and made a light cut on Angelina’s back
Pfft!The moment the blood came in contact with his head, Harvey fell into a trance. He turned into an absent-minded state.Angelina laughed when she saw Harvey in this state.She caressed Harvey’s face with her right hand and whispered quietly, “What a good boy.”“Come. I’ll be asking you a few questions, so make sure you answer them honestly. Okay?”“Tell me, did Kait give you half of her shares she owns in Walker Corporation?”“Yes.”Harvey nodded, seemingly dazed.“So why are you still helping her?”“Because she’s pretty.”A silly smile leaked out of Harvey’s face.“Am I pretty?” Angelina chuckled while asking.“You are. You’re prettier than Kait.”Harvey nodded constantly, showing a yearning look on his face.His appearance made Angelina quite scornful. She used her index finger to lift Harvey’s chin up and chuckled lightly.“So sign this contract for me. If you do, I’ll kiss you on the lips.”“Come on, baby boy.”Angelina took out the contract from under her pill
“You’re not affected by the technique?!”Angelina quickly returned to her senses.‘Not only was Harvey unaffected by my Lost Soul Beetle, but he even managed to record our whole conversation?!’Angelina went on the defensive in just a blink of an eye.“Indeed, the Beetle Possession Technique is quite miraculous. It’s a shame you screwed up during your training and only learned this much.”“Besides, you’ve only just recovered. Do you really think you’ll succeed when you’re setting me up in such a rush?”Harvey flashed her a playful look.“Besides, there’s no such thing as free lunch in this world. You wouldn’t act this nice toward me unless you want something in return!”“I’m the man who threw your dignity to the ground and trampled on it. But you don’t hate me, and instead you’re welcoming me with open arms. Unless I’m a complete idiot, I’ll definitely know that you’re up to something.”“The only thing I don’t understand is that the high and mighty lady of the John family actu
Facing Harvey’s calm gaze, Angelina’s expression changed frantically. Finally, she let out a helpless sigh and waved her right hand.Harvey sensed that the snipers left immediately. The rifle that was aimed directly at him disappeared as well.Angelina put her clothes on properly, then sat in front of Harvey. She looked perplexed.“Sir York, can you tell me who you actually are?”Harvey replied calmly, “Is there even a point for you to know?”Angelina froze, then burst out laughing.“That’s true, there’s no point at all.”“Let me answer your first question: Angelina did die by my hands.”“But Kait’s mother was already a vegetable before I got into the Walker family.”“I don’t know what happened either, but I’m guessing that Justin was the one who did that.”“Justin?”Harvey frowned.“Why would he do that?”“Kait’s mother was a professional in ancient martial arts and also his wife. Why would he do something like that?”Angelina flashed him a playful look.“Sir York. You’
"That's her, Big bro! According to my spy, he said Juliana is no longer hiding it and cheats openly! I didn't want to believe it, but from the looks of it, she's been cheating all this time!" Alexei said to Harvey. He was so upset that he almost cried.Harvey frowned. "That's all you know? What else do you have?"Alexei quickly took out his phone. "My spy has just sent me all the information. Juliana went to Lost City for further studies, and she studied well. Originally, according to the promise made, she should already be back about half a month ago so we could get married. However, she got to know this man called Hawk John at her graduation party. The two became fast friends. She even announced that they're best friends forever!"I thought they were just ordinary friends, but from the looks of it… That isn't it at all! Forget hiding it, Juliana's directly taking him back! I hate this!" Alexei slammed his chest, as if he were in a lot of pain.Harvey was speechless. "Seriou
Harvey's eyes started to twitch as he immediately gave Alexei a look. It was a call for help.Alexei shrugged. There was nothing he could do. However, it was exactly at this time that his phone suddenly started to vibrate. He gave it a weird look and picked it up. Then, he was stunned… He was practically frozen. No longer caring about anything, Alexei immediately ran over to Harvey and hugged his legs tightly. "Bro! Big bro! You have to help me! You must!"Alexei instantly started crying.Harvey promptly bent down and held Alexei's shoulder. As if he had found a way out, he said solemnly, "Don't worry, Alexei. I've always treated you like my own little brother. Your problem is also my problem. Even if the world is collapsing, I will protect you. So, stop worrying!"Alexei was so touched that he couldn't stop himself from weeping. "You're treating me so well, Big bro, even after I sold you out to my Senior…"Harvey's eyes twitched again. "We're family! What can I say? Let's
Harvey's eyes instinctively twitched. "It belongs to me, so why can't I stay here?"Vaida said worriedly, "Now that Grand City is so chaotic and the Sacred Lands are on the verge of getting into a fight, it's really dangerous if you stay outside. Both my father and I are worried about you. So… Shouldn't you move back?"Harvey led Vaida into the living room and said with a smile, "Don't overthink things, Vaida. It's exactly because things are getting unruly that I should stay in Dragon Gate Training Hall to be a stabilizing presence as their scion, right? Not to mention, I've bothered all of you too much all this time. I have too much going on. If I stay there, it will only bother the mayor, Mr. Wenzel, and Mr. Geoffrey. So, it's better if I stay at my own place."However, Harvey paused when he reached this part of the conversation. "Of course, if there's a need, all you need to do is to give me a call and I'll be there."Vaida nodded. "Harvey, other than the reason you've given us
Mandy was a little startled, then looked at Harvey with a strange look. "You're in such a rush to get rid of me? Don't tell me you really want to be the mayor's son-in-law? I've been here less than a day, and there are already plenty of people warning me about you becoming one."Harvey rolled his eyes. "Don't listen to their nonsense. If I really wanted to be his son-in-law, I wouldn't have gone to save you.""Then why are you in such a rush to send me away?"Harvey sighed. "There are really some things that are beyond my abilities. Let's use what happened this time with Clarion as an example. It's true that I let him take the glory, but after doing that, Dan now considers me an enemy and a thorn in his side. "As a member of the Top Ten Families, you have some understanding of him, don't you? Since he can't deal with me effectively, he'll definitely start with you. The reason I'm asking you to leave is for your own safety."Mandy clicked her tongue. "If Dan really wants to do
Emery slowly flipped and opened the Chapter of Ascension. The Chapter itself was old, written with small letters. Accompanied the original texts were notes and some insights.Emery only believed a portion of the rumors regarding the Chapter of Ascension. After reading through the notes and personal reflections, he could ascertain that the Chapter of Ascension was genuine.What was written inside the Chapter of Ascension was indeed capable of completely changing a martial artist's way of thinking.As he read through it, Emery was already subconsciously trying to test and start training by following what was recorded within the Chapter of Ascension. He had just started to let the energy inside of him flow, but had already noticed that his power, that reached a bottleneck for some time, started to have a breakthrough.In just an instant, Emery could already feel somewhat stronger. It was only a small amount, but it was enough to excite him. It meant that the Chapter of Ascension w
The Wright residence, Wolsing.When Janus got out of a Rolls-Royce Cullinan, it was around midnight. He looked around carefully before quickly entering a courtyard within the residence, holding a wooden box.He walked through the corridors with full familiarity and entered a study.Emery, the Number One Young Master of Wolsing, was quietly holding a piece of gemstone, brushing it against his thumb.Janus didn't run in. Instead, he waited until Emery was done looking at the gemstone before entering. "Good evening, sir."Emery raised his head and glanced at Janus. "So? Did you get it?"Janus smiled. "Is there anything in this world you want that we can't get for you?"He carefully put the small box on the coffee table and smiled."While Harvey and that idiot Hale are all quite good," he said, "they're all pawns playing to your tune. This time, with Daichi working for us and Sky Plane suffering such a huge loss, we finally have it in our hands. If those monsters from Sky Plane kne
Night fell by the time Harvey and the others returned to Grand City.Kenta had already left midway. It was obvious that he knew following Harvey and the others was pointless now.In the meantime, before returning to Grand City, Harvey had already instructed Clarion to spread the news of Origin Sword Style's extermination back to Grand City and how Earth Hall was instrumental in its destruction.By the time Clarion returned to Grand City, he was immediately enthusiastically welcomed back home. Initially, many people had an issue with him suddenly becoming the leader of Earth Hall. However, they did not expect Clarion to be able to single-handedly handle one of the main pillars of Sky Plane, the Origin Sword Style school shortly after he led the Earth Hall.While many did not know what actually transpired, Clarion and his team brought Isoroku's body back to Grand City. Taking Isoroku's body back was a great achievement on its own as it also means that Sky Plane's overall power would
Isoroku immediately crumpled on the ground. The arrogant master of the Origin Sword Style suddenly surrendered and killed himself. There was only bitterness and regret on his face, as if regretting why he did not simply stay and train in isolation. That way, he would not meet the person before him… Harvey.However, no matter how much regret he had, he needed to commit suicide.That was because he knew very well that Harvey had revealed to him his true identity. If he refused to die, Harvey would turn around and completely wipe out the Origin Sword Style. Now that he decisively made such a decision, Harvey would not return to Sky Plane.Harvey looked at Isoroku's body. With a smirk, he said, "That's why I don't like others to find out who I really am." Then, Harvey planted his foot on Isoroku's longsword. There was a loud clang, and the longsword instantly shattered. Its fragments fired in all directions.All the Origin Sword Style elites had been eradicated completely.A few minut
Isoroku's blade slashed downward. It was so fast that it was barely visible to the naked eye. However, before it could even touch Harvey's body, Isoroku suddenly saw him raise his right hand and flicked, hitting the blade when it was just starting to get close.Clang!It was an extremely simple move. However, Harvey's flick reached the blade first, and he immediately parried the attack. Isoroku's entire body shuddered, and his heart skipped a beat. He thought he was already victorious, but he was left with a shocked expression.He raised his blade and wanted to attempt another attack, but he could not do anything for a long while. Harvey was simply standing there with a calm expression. The two of them were close to each other, and Harvey looked like he was completely exposed. However, for someone like Isoroku, when someone was completely exposed, it also meant that he was not exposed at all. If he was not exposed, his blade could not slash downward at him anymore."You… You must h
