In under a minute, all thirty-four gold level personnel stayed.As for whether they yearned for Dragon Palace’s status and salary, or they actually thought that Yoana Mendoza was not going to remain in position for long, was still unknown.Yoana squinted at those people before issuing a new rule for the branch, indifferently.According to law, insurgents would be killed without warning.In Yoana’s eyes, there would be no attachments between people here. Next, she would improve the rules and regulations in Dragon Palace’s Hong Kong and Las Vegas branches. Anyone who crossed the line would be looking for their deaths.The gold level personnel felt immense pressure then. In their eyes, Yoana was really hard to deal with…But they still believed that without all of Dragon Palace’s support, the branch would not survive for long on its own.They figured that Yoana would probably beg Dragon Palace to reclaim the place back in a month’s time…Yoana wasted no time transferring the human
Harvey York’s indifferent reply made Yoana Mendoza take a deep breath.She knew full well of the consequences of her taking position.Other than offending the whole of Dragon Palace, she basically declared war against the number one top talent of Hong Kong and Las Vegas.She would have to pay a great price if she planned to keep her position.Without this opportunity, Yoana would have kept going down her original path…If that were the case, she would have no chance to rise as a distinguished character in the upper social circle in Hong Kong and Las Vegas. The Mendoza family would have stayed as an ordinary first-rate family.When a person or a family wants something, there will always be a price to pay…After seeing a slight change in Yoana’s expression, Harvey thought about the situation and said, “Of course, the Dragon Palace’s branch and the Mendoza family alone wouldn’t be enough to topple the foundations of Hong Kong and Las Vegas.“I’ll figure out a way to get the King o
Harvey York squinted slightly after hearing the name. He felt that it might be someone’s scheme.Yoana Mendoza coldly replied, “Why’d you even look for me for such a small matter?“There are so many people in Dragon Palace’s branch. There’s gold level personnel in charge of this sort of thing. Just get them to do the job!”The woman was anxious.“I can’t, Helm Mendoza! Those Islanders have extraordinary status. They’re from the Shinkage Way…“Shinkage Way is one of the Six Schools of Martial Arts in the Island Nations. They’re equally renowned compared to the Shindan Way!“With our current strength, we’re no match for the Shinkage Way!“We can’t afford to offend them. That’s why we need your help to see if they’re willing to pay us some respect, Helm Mendoza.”The woman observed Yoana’s actions as she frantically spoke, as if she wanted to see Yoana’s reactions.Harvey chuckled wordlessly. He wanted to see how Yoana would deal with the situation.If he guessed correctly, this
“Filth!”Yoana Mendoza let out a cold scoff before pulling out an exquisite firearm from her long boots and walking inside the Kyoto Box.“Fool!“Who’s there?! How dare you come close?!“Don’t you know that our master’s playing with a beautiful young woman?!”“Well, this woman’s quite the beauty too. Wanna play with us?”The Island swordsmen raised their heads to look at Yoana. They were filled with rage at first, but glee took over soon after, as if Yoana’s beautiful face enchanted them.Bang bang bang!Yoana could not be bothered to talk any longer and immediately pulled the trigger. The Islander swordsmen, who were showing wretched smiles on their faces, fell flat on the ground while covering the wounds on their legs.The crowd was frantically twitching their eyes.People from the Dragon Palace’s branch, the Yorks from Hong Kong, the Briewood Gang, and even Hong Kong and Las Vegas Police Station.All of them showed up here to see how Yoana would handle the situation.But
Even though words of approval came out of his mouth, the look on his face was filled with disdain and disgust as he mentioned the name of the helm.After all, the Dragon Palace’s branch without any support from Dragon Palace itself seemed extremely impractical and unrealistic to the eyes of many people. They felt that the branch might collapse at any second.The so-called helm also did not have much authority.Harvey York squinted at the Islander indifferently.An old man was standing not far behind the Islander. The old man seemed like an extremely plain skinny person who was showing male pattern baldness…But when Harvey saw him, his eyes could not help but squint.“It’s you, Aki Kitagawa.”Yoana Mendoza squinted after she saw the Islander’s face.“I wondered who’s making a fuss in the territory of Dragon Palace’s branch, taking advantage of some kind woman like that.“It was you all along, young lord of the Kitagawa Clan, disciple of the Shinkage Way…“But if I remember co
Bang!Aki Kitagawa stood up after hearing those words and kicked down the low table in front of him. Then, he picked up a cup of sake and casually took a sip.“A fair statement?” he asked with interest.“Helm Mendoza, how are you supposed to give us a fair statement?”“I am the young lord of the Kitagawa Clan and the disciple of the Shinkage Way. I’m having fun with women from Country H because I respect you people.“Are you braindead? How dare you even ask for a fair statement?!“Besides, the Dragon Palace’s branch is just water without a source. Do you really think you’re still the same invincible Dragon Palace from outside the borders?“A mere Dragon Palace’s branch dares to demand me for a fair statement?“Who gave you the courage to do so?“The gun in your hand?“Or your first-rate family? The government of Las Vegas’ first-in-command?“Shoot me if you dare!”Aki pointed at his forehead while showing an extremely arrogant look on his face.All his friends burst out la
Aki Kitagawa scoffed.“So what if I am?“If it were the previous helm of Dragon Palace’s branch, I’d at least pay some respect!“But you have no right for that sort of thing!“You don’t even have the right to kneel and speak right now, let alone be on equal footing with me! Do you understand?!”Yoana Mendoza took a step forward while showing a cold expression on her face, ready to pull the trigger.Harvey York swiftly held her back, signaling her to back off. He then calmly walked forward and sized up Aki.“Some mere Islanders dare to show off this much in Country H’s territory?”He didn’t want to stand out before, but since the Shinkage Way was one of the Island Nation’s Six Schools of Martial Arts, the Mendoza family would not be able to handle the situation judging from their background.That was why Harvey felt like he had to deal with the situation himself.Aki sized up Harvey and coldly chuckled after seeing his frail and pallid body.“What? The master can’t handle me,
“Alright. Enough talk. Go! Get him!”Aki Kitagawa was looking down on Harvey York. He did not expect that Harvey would have anything to show.“Hyah!”Kinoshita immediately swung the side of his hand toward Harvey’s wrist. He was obviously planning to cripple Harvey.Slap!Harvey swung his palm forward without even dodging and landed his hit first.No martial art is unbreakable, and speed is the only way to victory. With the sound of a loud slap, Kinoshita’s eyes blacked out. He was immediately sent flying after he suddenly felt a sharp pain on his face.Bang!His body smashed right into the corner of the room, with his face completely deformed.‘How’s this possible?!’Aki and the others were utterly dumbfounded.Kinoshita was an expert of the Shinkage Way! Even though he was not a God of War, he was at the pinnacle of all Kings of Arms!The top King of Arms of the generation was sent flying by a single slap?!What sort of strength was this?!While Aki was frozen solid,
"While Country H is said to have existed for so many years, the people can be quite narrow-minded. They'll act all arrogant because they have a bit of talent. Not only that, but they also refuse to accept the rest of the civilized world. There's no need to get angry with these people," Juliana said to Hawk's men, her tone filled with concern."All of them say they love their country, but the truth is that they'll leave for greener pastures as soon as opportunities present themselves. Despite agreeing with your values, I'm still part of this country. I wish I could really be part of you!" Juliana said, envy and disappointment on her face.Hawk and the others smiled when they saw Juliana's attitude. If most of the people from Country H acted like this, their cultural victory would be assured. At this point, all of them smiled widely and abandoned whatever upset feelings they had from just now.-About ten minutes later, Harvey took Alexei back to the Dragon Gate Training Hall. Va
When Juliana and the others saw Harvey and Alexei leave, all of them could only grit their teeth in anger despite being genuinely surprised. They didn't expect Harvey's call to be enough to remove Hawk's status as a Knight Templar with one call. His quick action had humiliated Hawk and his men.Normally speaking, they would never believe that Harvey would be able to do such a thing. They didn't expect that reality could be so cruel to the point that it was choking them. Harvey was so influential that they found themselves struggling to breathe."Calm down, Hawk. Don't feel down. I don't think that what happened is real," Juliana said as she subconsciously consoled Hawk. "His reputation is built on boasts. He doesn't understand just how powerful your culture is! There's no way he can affect the powerful Knights Templar."I suspect he's working with someone else and got a fake number, so that he could intimidate and trick you! In other words, you can't let this confuse you! Even i
Harvey narrowed his eyes and said calmly to Hawk, "If you're really that powerful, you won't be wearing that expression when you see me."The so-called top from their side would not only treat him with respect, but they would also get the hell out of there as fast as possible.However, Hawk didn't understand what Harvey was trying to convey. He smiled coldly and said, "You don't understand what the Knight Templars mean, do you? Before this name, even dragons and beasts must fall! And when it comes to someone like you… The moment I showed you my identity, you won't even have the privilege to bend your knee!"Harvey refuted calmly, "If you're really that influential, won't it humiliate you completely if I can make you bend your knee with one call?"Hawk's expression turned brutal. "Oh? You're going to make a move? Come on, then! Show me just how good you really are!"Harvey nodded and pulled out his phone as he looked at Hawk. "Since you asked for it, I guess I have no choice but
Harvey scoffed. He couldn't be bothered by wasting his breath speaking to someone like Juliana, who obviously had been hit on the head. Instead, he turned to Alexei. "I'm leaving now. You either leave with me, or you can stay here and be a simp. But remember—if you stay as her simp, don't appear in front of me again. A man who has no pride and a backbone doesn't have the right to stand in front of me."Hearing that, there was a hint of hesitation on Alexei's face.When Juliana saw that Harvey didn't agree to her demand and even changed the subject, she smiled coldly. "If you have a death wish, then I'll grant it to you. I won't pull my punches from here on out. And you, Alexei. You can try and leave with him… As long as you can bear the consequences of that!"Alexei's expression was filled with even more hesitation. In the end, he gritted his teeth and left together with Harvey.Juliana's smile turned icy when she saw what had happened. "Good, Alexei! You'll regret this! From n
"I'm sorry! It's all my fault! My entire fault! I shouldn't have forced you!" Alexei said, lowering his head dejectedly. Seeing this, Juliana walked over and extended her hand, raising Alexei's chin. She said coldly, "It's good that you know you're making a mistake. Now, Hawk and I will need to get some rest at the hotel. We'll also be going to a charity ball later. Since we're very busy, we don't have the time to pay for our meal. Remember to pay for it and our presidential suite as well. Understand?"While Juliana looked down at Alexei, she didn't mind making Alexei pay for everything. From her perspective, it was a matter of course.When Alexei heard it, he still nodded despite the dark expression on his face.He wanted to take his wallet out, but Harvey quickly stopped Alexei and took his wallet instead. "If you have the money for a woman, why don't you come with me and eat something at the nearby stall? Don't waste your life and time on a woman like this."Harvey dragged A
After Alexei heard what Harvey had to say, his expression was filled with hesitation. It was obvious that he did have feelings for Juliana. However, there was also fear. He didn't know what he should do.He was afraid that Juliana might really abandon him. At the same time, he was really afraid that Juliana was cheating. Alexei felt like he was stuck between a rock and a hard place."Alexei? Why are you here?" At this time, a cold and arrogant voice could be heard. "Are you here to ambush me? So that you can annoy me?"Harvey instinctively turned around and saw Juliana and Hawk walking out from the restaurant hand-in-hand like a wealthy couple. Behind them were their secretaries, lawyers, and bodyguards. They looked like important people; on the other hand, Alexei looked like a beggar by the street.Alexei quickly ran over, forcing himself to smile despite being upset. "I heard you're back, Juliana, so I came over to pick you up. You must be tired now. I've arranged for a pre
"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
