Nia Howell’s surgerized face had been beaten badly, all twisted up.Kane Brooke walked toward her and took a quick glance. Rage started to build up inside him.He wanted to have fun at Jamie Brooke’s house that night. Who would’ve thought that Nia would turn out like this? Kane’s mood was ruined.Kane’s sight landed on Jamie, who was also incapacitated.“What happened?” Kane coldly asked.“We’re finished! We’re finished! That’s Kane Brooke from the Brooke family!”“Harvey’s a fool! Now he can’t even get away!”“Kane had always been the perverted one. Not only Harvey will be facing the consequences, Mandy and the girls will be defiled too…”The group of students were shaking like leaves on a tree branch. Kane Brooke from the Brooke family was a ruthless man. His name was well known, just uttering it was enough to frighten most people to death. Not to mention, he was standing here at this very moment, full of rage.“Sigh, this is why people need to understand what they are capab
“Boss Liam, I paid the money due this month. What are you…”Kane Brooke was frightened. He was not afraid of boasting in front of Harvey York, but in front of Liam Stone, he was nothing but a wimp.Liam’s eyes were as cold as ice, even more intimidating than Kane. Liam said nothing, and kicked Kane down to the ground.“Boss Liam, what are you…”Kane was shocked. He opened his mouth, not knowing that this action would be the death of him.“You two are going to get me killed today!”Liam roared, and then went for Jamie Brooke to give him a beating. Jamie rolled all over the ground, crying non-stop.Nia Howell froze. She hurried in front of Jamie and shielded him.“Boss Liam, have you got the wrong people? We’re not the ones that beat up your men…”Liam paused, and then yanked Nia’s hair. Using his other hand, he began slapping her face repeatedly for a couple dozen times.“You nosy woman! Showing off my name everywhere, while hitting on some lowlife from the Brooke family with
Liam Stone was now Tyson Woods’ younger brother. Honestly speaking, he did not even have the right to be Harvey York’s younger brother. It was not easy for him to stay alive. He knew what he was supposed to do and what he was not supposed to do at this moment. Harvey did not expose his identity, so he naturally did not dare to do so as well. He clearly knew how he was supposed to deal with the Brooke family. If he did not satisfy Harvey’s demands that day, he could not begin to imagine the kind of death he would need to face… “W-What’s going on? Liam, are you giving up on the Brooke family?”“That’s impossible! Liam has been protecting the Brooke family for so many years. We have a solid relationship with each other. How could he mysteriously give up on us?”“Could it be that Harvey is an accomplished person?”“No way, he’s a worthless piece of trash. How could he be accomplished? I have a feeling that Liam’s switched sides to the Zimmer family…”“The Zimmer family is the only
Mandy Zimmer was slightly confused to see Liam Stone behaving so respectfully in front of her. She could not figure out why Liam would treat her with such high regard. Could this be because of Harvey York?The problem was that Liam was not treating Harvey in any special way. She thought that she was just overthinking.Liam must be acting this way because of the Zimmer family.While Mandy was still mulling over the situation, Harvey had spoken coldly, “Someone had beaten up my wife earlier and thought of wreaking havoc with my wife and her girlfriends. This person even wanted me to kneel and crawl out of here…”Murmurs were heard amongst the crowd.Harvey said this in a plain and nonchalant manner. Liam was about to kneel himself but did not dare to do so when he saw the warning flashed across Harvey’s eyes. He remembered Tyson Woods’ orders for him. Harvey was an extremely low-profile person. If he dared to expose Harvey’s identity, he would be inviting death himself.After drawi
“This is…?” Mandy Zimmer looked at Ella Graves’ expression and could not hold back to ask in a lowered voice.“That’s right, both of you have not met yet.” Harvey York patted on his head for his forgetfulness and did the introductions. “This is Doctor Graves from the emergency department. We’ve met once before.”“Doctor Graves, this is my wife. I need to trouble you to help me out.”Although both women’s expressions seemed amiss, Harvey was more concerned about Mandy’s injuries and did not give much thought to the situation.When Ella heard the word ‘wife’, she was shocked into a daze. In the next moment, she regained her senses and smiled slightly. “Mr. York, you’re indeed both young and capable. Even your wife’s stunningly beautiful. Don’t you worry, I promise that she will not have a single scar left behind with me around.”“Great, I’m very much comforted to hear that from you.” Harvey heaved a sigh of relief. He was at ease with Ella’s medical skills and ethics. Since Ella had
Angel Quinn’s complexion turned pallid when she saw the scene unfold before her. She looked at Mandy Zimmer’s expression and instinctively tried to smooth things over. “Cecilia, I think that’s quite enough. It may not be as it seems. Doctor Graves did seriously treat our wounds earlier. She should be a good lady.”“Angel, how could you speak up for an outsider?” Cecilia Zachary laughed coldly. “All she did was apply some medicine on us and you’ve forgotten that we were almost seriously hurt because of this worthless piece of trash? Harvey, I’m warning you. Don’t think that we’ll turn a blind eye just because you’ve sent us to the hospital.”“If only you had some competence, even as just a normal person, we would not have been beaten up by that b*tch, Nia Howell. I advise you to get a divorce with Mandy as soon as possible! Her marrying any random cats or dogs from the streets would still be a hundred times better than being married to a worthless piece of trash like you!”She had al
The whole emergency department fell into dead silence with his bellow. Mandy Zimmer was slightly stunned. Harvey York would never yell out this way no matter how Cecilia Zachary and Angel Quinn gave him the cold shoulder. Yet, he was showing this attitude. Was his guilty conscience eating at him?Mandy could only keep mum while being deep in her thoughts. She did not understand the feeling in her heart.She could not tell if she was furious, envious, or broken-hearted.Her reasoning told her that it was normal for Harvey to have another woman outside since she never allowed him to touch even her finger after three years of marriage.However, when the situation had happened, her heart was rife with complicated feelings.“Cecilia, let’s not continue.” Mandy drew in a deep breath. “I’ll send you both home.”She then stretched out her hand and took the keys from Harvey’s hands and left with Cecilia and Angel.Mandy did not understand why she would be angry. She should not have any
“I can’t believe it. Am I dreaming? Is that Doctor Graves in casual clothes?”“Did you see that too? I thought that there’s something wrong with my eyes.”“Is Ella Graves out of her mind? She refuses to sit in so many sports cars and now she’s sitting in the passenger seat of an electric bike? It’s a shared one at that! Those that only cost two dollars an hour!”“It’s like what they used to say. One would rather sit in an electric bike and be happy rather than sit in a luxury car and cry…”“If only we knew that Doctor Graves liked eunuchs like him, we would not have bought cars in the first place…”From that day on, the male staff of the hospital had all changed to use electric bikes and stopped driving to work. The initial problem of lack of parking spaces in the hospital car park was inevitably solved. It was an unexpected turn of events.***While on the road, Harvey York had a lack of self-awareness. When Ella said that she wanted to eat the most famous Western cuisine in Ni
"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."
