The beautiful women felt extremely haughty again.They crossed their arms while glaring at Harvey York disdainfully.Harvey would never be able to cross someone as prominent as Ezra Bauer.Only Aiden Bauer was playfully looking at those fools in front of him.‘These people are joking, right?’Harvey seemed indifferent. He also could not be bothered to explain anything to them.Though, he did not expect that there would be a surprise waiting for him that day.He was planning to deal with Longmen’s Law Enforcement sooner or later.Since the vice head was coming anyway…Harvey decided to settle the matter once and for all.Vroom!A few minutes later, a few Lexus LX570s drove right into the crowd before parking in front of Dylan Bowie and the others.When the car doors opened, thirty-six strong men in robes could be seen walking out.Stern and fierce looks were shown on their faces. Their movements were vigorous as they held their heads up high. At first glance, it was clear t
Ezra Bauer crossed his arms when he stepped forward.He was planning to head to Joseph Bauer’s place for some business, but he was suddenly called here.No matter what, Dylan Bowie was still considered a relative of the Bauer family. He was an outstanding student who also gave heaps of excellent gifts. It was only natural for Ezra to take care of the situation for him.After seeing the intense look on Ezra’s face, Dylan pointed at Harvey York while showing a miserable expression.“He took advantage of me, Teacher!“He thinks he can come at me just because he has some skill and strength in numbers!“B*stard!”Ezra’s face darkened instantly after seeing Dylan’s swollen face filled with palm prints.His student had been the one who took advantage of other people, and not the other way around!This was intolerable!“This useless filth which I called my uncle stood up against me too! He even demanded me to kneel in front of the damn outsider!”Dylan was furious. Those couple of s
“I’m not going to ask, nor do I need to know.Ezra Bauer crossed his arms and stepped forward, showing a gaze as cold as ice.“All I need to know is that you beat up my student.“You beat up one of my men from Longmen’s Law Enforcement!”“Teacher! This b*stard even said he’d kill you if you crossed him!” exclaimed Dylan Bowie with an odd tone.“Yeah! He did say that!” yelled the followers.“This b*stard doesn’t even respect you, Master Bauer!”“He doesn’t care about you!”“Don’t hold back! Kill him!”“Oh? Do you want to kill me?“In Flutwell?Ezra let out a cold scoff.“You little b*stard… Looks like you won’t know your limits unless I beat the s*it out of you today!”“Just how unreasonable can you be?” asked Harvey calmly.“Unreasonable?”Ezra laughed.“Power is everything in Flutwell!“Useless filth can only grovel no matter if they’re in the right!“Why don’t you ask this one here if he dares to speak up against me?Next, Ezra pointed at Logan with a proud express
When everyone thought that everything was all set and done for…An unspeakable turn of events happened!HarveyYork calmly swung his palm forward.Slap!Dylan Bowie was caught off guard and again sent flying by the slap.“Who are you even?“You think you have the right to make me grovel?”Harvey stared at Dylan with a disdainful smirk.“Teacher!”Dylan slammed right into the ground while covering his face before spitting out a mouthful of blood along with a few broken teeth.He was completely infuriated.He never expected that Harvey would actually be this insane!The crowd was at a loss. They were looking at Harvey with their jaws dropped. They could not even react to the situation.Nobody could accept what just happened.Ezra Bauer was there!But Harvey still dared to take action even with many martial art experts around the place.Did he have a death wish?Ezra was surprised. He was speechless after seeing such a sight. He was completely dumbfounded.In his eyes, pe
Ezra Bauer completely ignored Dylan Bowie. He returned to his senses after a long while before walking up to Harvey York.“You damn b*stard!” exclaimed Ezra while coldly glaring at Harvey.“Where did you get this badge from?!“Why do you have it?!”“You still don’t get it?” replied Harvey calmly.“Enough games! Where did you get it from?!Ezra could only think of one possibility, but he refused to believe it, no matter what.“I’ll have you killed if you don’t talk this instant!”“Some filth crossed me while I was in Hong Kong and Las Vegas. So, I slapped him to death.“This thing ended up with me after that,” replied Harvey nonchalantly.“It’s said that I can use this to take control of Longmen’s Law Enforcement. Who knows if that’s really the case.”Ezra’s face darkened in an instant. He finally understood what had happened!Hong Kong and Las Vegas, the badge, the young man before him…There was only one explanation with all those clues combined.The man in front of him
“Hoh! It looks like the badge does do something after all!”Harvey York chuckled before he stepped forward.He swung his palms around when he walked past the rest of the disciples. In just a moment, they were all slapped to the ground.Some had palm prints clearly showing on their faces, while others had their teeth fly out of their mouths. They wanted to destroy Harvey so badly at this point.They even believed they could end Harvey’s life with just a single punch if they wanted to…But they would not dare to go against him after he showed the Law Enforcement Badge.After all, the badge itself represented the status of the head of the organization itself.The badge was the symbol of the highest order!Dylan Bowie’s followers were completely shocked. They did not expect that they would see something like this in this day and age…The badge was clearly an ancient relic of the past, but it somehow suppressed the disciples of Longmen’s Law Enforcement.Dylan’s eyes frantically t
Before the crowd could react…Another shocking thing happened.Harvey took a step forward and ruthlessly slapped Ezra around.Slap!“This one’s for you tarnishing Longmen’s name!”Slap!“This one’s for you being unable to tell right from wrong!”Slap!“This one’s for you taking advantage of the weak!”“As the vice head of Longmen’s Law Enforcement…”“Not only are you not doing your job properly, but you’re acting as you please without restraint!”“If you won’t abide by the rules, then who in Longmen will?!”“Longmen has been governing Country H’s underworld for many years, and has achieved a lot of great things…”“But because of b*stards like you, all those accomplishments are reduced into nothing!”Harvey slapped Ezra’s face over and over again, to the point his face became as swollen as a pig’s.Ezra was an experienced fighter, but he wasn’t able to dodge the slaps. His body swayed all over the place as he endured all those slaps in the face.Everyone could tell just
After Harvey exposed his thoughts, Ezra gritted his teeth.“I am! I really am!” he exclaimed after a long while.“You say that, but you actually feel resentful, don’t you?”“You’re planning to find out my identity before coming for my entire family, aren’t you?”“You’d even dig up my ancestors from their graves and turn them to ash too, right?”Harvey smiled as he pointed out exactly what Ezra was thinking. Then, he kicked right at Ezra’s stomach.Ezra was about to react to the attack, but he was a bit slow since he was kneeling.His entire body felt weighed down, as if he was hit by a sledgehammer. Decades worth of strength and hard work was destroyed in an instant.His spirits were crushed along with it.He felt extremely powerless; his entire body collapsed onto the ground as he trembled uncontrollably.Ezra gritted his teeth, boiling with anger.“What did you do to me, you b*stard?!”“Nothing much. I only ruined all your training,” Harvey explained calmly.“People like
Soon, Harvey and Alexei walked into the auction hall discreetly with their heads low.The auction hall was incredibly spacious. It resembled a grand stadium, with individual seats placed all over. In the middle of the stadium was a tall auction platformThere was still some time before the start of the auction, but most of the guests were already there. Everyone nodded toward each other and started chatting. Not only was this an auction, but a lot of people also treated this as a place where they could socialize.Harvey and Alexei had been brought to seats at the corner by the staff. Harvey didn't mind this location. He picked up a tablet in front of him and started to swipe it. The content was mostly about the items up for auction."Hello, everyone! It is good to see all the familiar faces in Grand City's Charity Auction once more," said an old man with a cool expression in traditional garb as he appeared on the platform. His voice wasn't loud, but it was crystal clear.There w
Harvey frowned. "Isn't that a little too far-fetched? An Oracle Text that can predict the future?"Alexei shook his head. "Don't underestimate the Hierophant, Big bro. Few people throughout history could decipher the Book of Changes so thoroughly. "It was said that there was a prince from some oil-producing country who managed to get an Oracle Text that showed the word Chaos."It was predicting that his country would fall into chaos. That prince made early preparations. Half a year later, that country fell into chaos, but the prince managed to prepare for it and suppressed the chaos. He even gained a lot of benefits from it. "After that, the Hierophant's Oracle Text became extremely popular!"Alexei spoke as if he were explaining to Harvey some ancient secrets. He glanced around sneakily, like he was worried that someone would hear him gossiping about the Hierophant.After Harvey heard it, he became curious. "Looks like this Hierophant really has something unique about him. No
Around ten in the evening, Alexei took Harvey to the Grand City's Charitable Auction. The auction was organized by the priesthood. Every time they had an auction, they would invite the socialites to attend.To the socialites, the mysterious Grand City would only show a little bit of itself around this time. In this auction, everyone used H dollars. Of course, there were times when bartering was possible, with the preface that both sides found the trade agreeable.Harvey had also learned about the details of the auction before coming. The mayor was at the top of the social hierarchy, followed by the Seven Families. However, because Wenzel had been missing for all these years, the Hierophant had been leading the Seven Families. That was why the Priesthood's social standing was far higher than before, despite being just a non-essential body in the past.For example, the one who chaired this auction this evening was the so-called Priestess. Harvey had heard plenty of rumors about
"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
