Chapter 3231

Author: A Potato-Loving Wolf
“What text?”

August instinctively looked over.

The journalists curiously glanced at the contents as well.

Everyone gasped soon after.

“Fifteen million dollars has been returned to the payer.”

“Fifteen million?!”

“From all the families?!”

“What the hell?!”

“What’s going on here?!”

“August gave these families fifteen million dollars each?!”

“And now he’s taking it all back?!”

A reporter who had an idea of how finances worked immediately understood what was going on.

August made an appointment to transfer the money. Logically speaking, everything would be transferred after twenty-four hours.

But after he canceled the appointment, the transfer would naturally become invalid.

While the crowd was gossiping up a storm, August’s expression changed instantly.

“What?! I didn’t ask for a return!”

“This wasn’t me!”

“Then give the money back already!” someone exclaimed with a furious look.

“We agreed that you’d hand over the money if we put on a show!”

“We gave our lives for this

    “We would’ve been fooled if we didn’t turn on our notifications!”“I’m warning you! You better give us the money, or we’ll come for you sooner or later!”“We’ll tell everyone that everything we said to Harvey was just a damn script you wrote for us!”“You got us here to slander him because you wanted him behind bars!”“We have seventy-six thousand dollars that you happily paid us beforehand! Here’s the record!”“In the first place, we wouldn’t even trust you if it weren’t for this!”“We can’t just put up a show for nothing, August! We shed blood for this!”August’s face darkened slightly; he didn’t know how he managed to slip up…But he knew that there was no chance for him to keep up the facade.After seeing a huge group of people trying to get to the bottom of the situation, August’s expression changed slightly. Then, he stood up together with his followers.“We’re leaving!”“You’re leaving?!”“You’re not going anywhere if you don’t hand over the damn money!”Seeing Augu

    Everything happened just as Harvey predicted.August was finished!The victims’ families were out of their minds for all that money.Not only were they going all out against August, they even exposed every single one of his schemes.August contacted them and bought them off a few days ago so they could cause trouble at any time.Someone pointed out that August said that he even managed to fake the entire surveillance footage, and that it would be easy to get a bunch of fake witnesses.Not only were August’s crimes exposed, Harvey was also proven innocent in the process.The journalists were all too happy to take advantage of August’s misfortune. Why would they even give him a chance to save himself?Everyone reported the news as soon as they could. Simply put, August was done for!…Flutwell. Inside Longmen’s Budokan.Ozzy had a horrible expression when he reported the situation to Joseph.“Young Master, August is done for.”“He lost everything.”“Our well-laid plans have

    Joseph narrowed his eyes for a moment.“A few days later, the second phase of my property’s launch will be held in Flutwell’s new district.”“If all three thousand properties can be sold, we’ll have most of our funds back.”“For now, let’s just focus on that.”“As for Harvey, we’ll let August handle it.”“Tell him to use force if playing dirty doesn’t work. I treated him well for this day.”“If Harvey doesn’t die, August dies!”…“Cheers!”“For Brother-In-Law’s innocence!”“I told you he’ll be fine!”Six o’clock in the evening. In the Flutwell Hotel, Harvey and the others were sitting under the bustling lights of a box.Xynthia used her own money to treat everyone to a meal.Aside from Mandy and her family, Rachel, Kayden, and the others were invited as well.Unlike the rest, Lilian had a horrible expression.She didn’t think that Harvey would be able to get out of the situation completely unscathed and still be together with her daughter. She couldn’t help but grit her

    Ten o’clock at night. In the Hatchet Gang’s base camp.Harvey was casually making himself some tea in the garden.A slender figure could be seen walking from afar not long after.“Your wife won’t get jealous of me for this, right, Sir York?” Rachel said with a smile before taking a seat in front of Harvey.She was wearing a gown made of silk. Together with her wavy hair, her exquisite feminine look was quite apparent.Harvey admired her beauty before flashing her a warm smile.“Are you going to tell me that I’ll anger Mandy just by drinking tea and watching the moon with you?”Rachel smiled back.“Of course. I’m different from the others. I only care about you, after all…”Harvey chuckled. He didn’t think Rachel would crack jokes like this, especially considering her serious demeanor.He poured a cup of tea for Rachel before changing the subject.“Alright. Enough jokes.”“Let’s talk business.”“Let Mandy take care of the company starting tomorrow.”“You deal with Longmen’

    During the chaos at the police station last time, August had bodyguards of the Bauer family with him. Unfortunately, there were simply too many journalists chasing after him.The bodyguards wouldn’t dare strike back, while the victims’ families had no restraint.August had no way to defend himself against the crowd rushing toward him.Many people pulled out their weapons to attack him. If it weren’t for August being well-versed in martial arts, his limbs would’ve long been gone.Yet, he was still bruised everywhere. There were even dark circles around his eyes.August didn’t bear a grudge against those people. There was no point to that.However, he knew that Harvey was to be blamed for all this!“How dare he keep going against me?!”“He’ll pay!”Though August was shocked to realize that Harvey kept thinking of ways to break through his well-laid plans, he was more startled that Harvey actually had the guts to fight back. In fact, the man constantly put Joseph and everyone els

    “If we can’t ask for the thirteenth young master’s help, we’ll end up horribly if we’re forced to go against Harvey.”“Shut up!”“Are you lecturing me right now?!”August was infuriated.“Let me think! How are we supposed to survive in Flutwell if we can’t even deal with a damn outsider?”August swiftly pulled out his phone and scrolled through his contacts.His eyes lit up when his finger stopped at an overseas number. A faint smile appeared on his face soon after.“The thirteenth young master won’t do it, but someone will.”“If I can’t deal with Harvey, someone else can!”“Go! Go to Bharata Hall! Ask Young Master Garcia out for golf tomorrow…”“Tell him that I haven’t thanked him for the expert with the Art of Disguise yet.”…On the next day, early in the morning.Harvey took Mandy to Hearthstone Corporation to deal with the company’s procedures.Mandy took the position as the company’s CEO soon after.Harvey’s decision was enough to seal Lilian’s mouth, even if the l

    “That’s why I’m asking you for help…”Harvey froze when he heard about the Torres family’s history. A bitter smile reached his lips.“Don’t forget: I may be the Head Coach, but I’m no doctor.”“That’s true, but you know the Art of Killing.”“The Lifestealing Finger is one of those techniques.”“Only you have a chance to save my father now.”“I really wouldn’t ask for your help if that wasn’t the case.”Naturally, Ansel knew that Harvey wouldn’t take action that easily. That was why he kept quiet for the longest time.But after seeing his father in pain, his face showing no color, Ansel decided to take the risk and ask for Harvey’s help regardless.“No need to be this formal, Ansel,” Harvey replied.“I can’t guarantee I’ll heal your father and bring him back to normal, but I’ll do my best.”“Don’t worry. You’re all brothers in my eyes.”Ansel was utterly grateful.“We can die happy with those words of yours, Sir York!”He then gestured for the driver to head back home.“R

    Legends said that the manor was built during the country’s rise for Flutwell’s first-in-command.For almost a hundred years, the manors here had been constantly torn apart and rebuilt, leaving only ten properties around the place.The owners of the manors were no small feat, either.They were either previous first-in-commands of Flutwell, or they had contributed to the city’s development immensely.People without such achievements would have no right to live in these houses.Harvey didn’t care much about the place, but he still understood its importance.The car parked in front of the Number One Manor a few minutes later.Harvey and Ansel then walked out of the car.Harvey looked around curiously and saw exquisite blue bricks and red tiles, perfect for the aesthetics of elderly people.Armed men in uniforms were posted all around the place as well. This was enough to explain a lot of things.“Please, Sir York!”Ansel brought out all sorts of credentials for a man in uniform

    "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."
