“Is Akio here?” Harvey asked, his tone calm.“If he is, get his *ss out of here right now.”“How dare you call out the master’s name as you please?!”The robed man’s face changed once he took a good look at Harvey.“You’re Harvey York?!”“Go! Kill him now!”The man gave an order immediately upon recognizing Harvey.A shame it was just too late.Harvey shook his body slightly before pouncing forward.Eight Kings of Arms wailed in pain; they weren’t even able to pull their swords out before they were sent flying. Their orifices were bleeding profusely when they landed on the ground again, all composure lost.The robed man’s expression changed into horror. He tried to get away, but he was just too slow.Harvey appeared right in front of him, and swung the back of his palm across his face.The sound of a loud clap rang, and the man slammed right into the ground before losing consciousness in an instant.Julian’s face was grim upon seeing what had happened. Before he could say
“Enough tricks!”Harvey bellowed, narrowing his eyes.He grabbed Julian’s firearm, took off the safety, and then pulled the trigger on the enemies’ heads.Bang, bang, bang!Bullets flew all over the place. Then a ninja appeared on the ceiling, looking bewildered. There was a red dot on his forehead when he slammed onto the ground.As blood spilled all over the place, Harvey swiftly pulled the trigger behind him.Another ninja who was trying to sneak up on him fell flat to the ground.Before the rest of the ninjas could even react, Harvey kept pulling the trigger without pause, killing every single ninja coming his way.Bang!The ninjas looked at him with faces of shock and disbelief before getting gunned down.All of them were instantly killed without Harvey even breaking a sweat.Harvey casually handed over the firearm back to Julian before taking a step forward.Bang!An extremely extravagant-looking gate inside the temple was sent flying with a single kick.Swish!The
Harvey could clearly feel a cold chill swerving in his vision.The slash was filled with murderous intent, as if a demon from Hell was the one dealing the blow.The Sword Saint of the Shindan Way wasn’t a title just for show. Akio truly did possess the strength of a God of War.In just a single moment, the slash was already heading right toward Harvey.Harvey flicked his finger while instinctively moving backwards.Clang!A loud sound echoed throughout the place when both sides clashed. Waves of air surged forward, pushing Harvey a few steps back.Even though Harvey wasn’t underestimating Akio at all, he never expected Akio’s strength to be a lot fiercer compared to before.Akio must’ve trained himself even harder after his previous defeat.He must have reached greater heights.Without hesitating, Harvey picked up a sword from the ground and shook his head.“You trained hard, Akio, but that doesn’t mean anything to me.”“Even a peak God of War wouldn’t be able to do much ag
“You talk too much. Experts wouldn’t run their mouths.”Harvey took a step forward and swung his sword in an instant.His swing was lightning fast, giving Akio no time at all to even react.Harvey’s swordsmanship was a lot different compared to Akio. His attacks were swift and deadly.The next moment, Akio could feel the slash.Akio, who was extremely confident before, grew panicked. He could tell just how much power was contained within Harvey’s attacks.Cold sweat dripped down Akio’s body and he let out a furious howl, and forced himself to pull his blade and block Harvey’s attack.Clang!Harvey’s sword pierced right through like a bright light.A huge blast surged toward Akio; he had no chance protecting himself against a seemingly predictable attack.He never thought that Harvey’s simple slash would be so spectacularly deadly.Akio was shocked. He quickly realized Harvey’s show of strength back in Hong Kong was just the tip of the iceberg.Harvey was so close to uniting
“What?! You’re Rin?”Julian froze. A wretched look appeared on his face.“You’re the sovereign of the Shindan Way and one of the Island Nations’ greatest Sword Saints!”“How are you the leader of Misfortune?!”Akio chuckled bitterly.“If I wasn’t Rin, why would I even know why you’re here?”Harvey frowned. He had predicted it somewhat, but he still found it a little unbelievable even after Akio revealed his identity.“Fine. If you’re really Rin, I’ll have you answer a few of my questions.”With a cold expression, Julian then asked, “Were you the one who killed Lord York’s son?”Akio’s eyes twitched frantically.“Julian York, correct?”“What would you like to hear? Yes or no?”Bang!Julian pulled the trigger on Akio’s hand without any hesitation.Blood splattered all over the ground. Akio only grunted, but not a scream could be heard from him.He could naturally dodge the bullet, but there would be no point.Harvey didn’t take action, but he had his eyes locked on Akio.
Julian froze at Akio’s words.“You b*stard! How can you not know who your employer is?!” he hollered.“How can you not know if you’re Rin?!”“You…”Slap!Before Julian could lash out, Harvey immediately swung his palm across Akio’s head, knocking Akio unconscious.Harvey then wiped his hand with some tissues.“Now’s not the time to question him.”“We’ll have lots of time when we get back to Hong Kong.”“He’s just trying to stall us.”“Come on!”Julian regained his calm upon hearing Harvey’s words.When the elites of the Shindan Way had the place completely surrounded, Harvey and Julian were already retreating toward the back of the mountain together with the Sentries of York.At the same time, the traps Yoana and her men placed beforehand were about to be put to good use.The moment Harvey and the others got away, the explosives were detonated instantly.When the Shindan Way gathered around the cliff, Harvey and the others were already gone.…Seven o’clock in the morn
Julian’s eyes lit up. Then, he raised his head.“Sir York, what if I told you that I can ensure Hong Kong and Las Vegas’s stability if I become the lord?”“I’ll guarantee nobody will be able to touch this place! The Empire and the Island Nations are no exception!”“Do I have a chance to rise if that’s the case?”Harvey was quite curious after seeing Julian’s enthusiastic look.“What gave you the courage to say that? What makes you think you have what it takes?”“Even Vince might not be able to do such a thing.”Julian frowned.“I’m different!”“Vince likes to plan ahead.”“He wants everything to be under his total control. That’s why he needs help from outside forces!”“Anybody who raises their voice against him will be easily silenced through those forces.”“His rise will cause the Yorks of Hong Kong to fall together with both Hong Kong and Las Vegas!”“Borrowed goods will always have to be returned someday.”“But I’m not like that”“If I were to take his position, I wo
The smile on Julian’s face froze in an instant. Instinctively, he turned around.“Vince?!” he exclaimed, his voice cracking. Yoana glanced over behind Harvey as well.“Yes, that’s him right there.”“What’s he doing here?”Harvey grinned.“It doesn’t matter. Since you’re planning to take his place…”“Why not do it now?”“Let me see your courage.”“If you tell him he’s not worthy to be the lord of the family…”“I might just consider helping you.”Julian’s courageous expression took a drastic turn. He clenched his teeth. “Welcome, Young Lord York! Please, come here!” He wasted no time being a sycophant.Upon hearing Julian’s words, disdain flitted over Harvey’s face.The former was acting so domineering and determined just a second ago, going about how he would snatch Vincent’s position, and that he was more than able to take control of the family…Yet, Vince’s name had already been etched deeply inside the hearts of the younger generation of the family.Even when Julia
"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
