“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
Naturally, Colton had already looked up Harvey’s name beforehand. He wouldn’t say such a thing if that wasn’t the case.“You can’t do things properly, but you sure are pretty arrogant, kid!”Colton took a step forward, as if he was trying to suppress Harvey with his aura. He wasn’t enraged because of Harvey’s words, though.“Be efficient while keeping a low profile. This is my principle,” Harvey replied.“I understand what you’re saying…”“But we should always look at the bigger picture!”“If there’s a way to put things right once and for all, why even waste energy in the first place?”“Luring the target before eliminating the entire group…”“That’s the best way to do things, don’t you think?”“That’s what you think! Those are just your own principles!” Colton snapped coldly.“But to me, you’re just being indecisive! In the end, your hesitance caused you more problems!”Ansel was at a complete loss, but he managed to catch up to the conversation.His father and Harvey were
Ansel was in shock, but Colton remained expressionless; nobody knew exactly how he was feeling.He then walked over before tapping Harvey on the shoulder.Harvey stood still, just as expressionless. “I told you Harvey was impressive, Father. Do you believe me now?”Ansel smiled faintly.“Can Sir York have a look at your injury now?”Before Colton spoke up, a voice echoed from outside.“Uncle Torres! Where are you?”“Let’s go to the hall.”Colton clapped his hands.“Sienna’s here.”“She told me she’d find me a well-known doctor a few days ago.”“She was planning to get me fixed.”“Sir York. Sienna’s from the Wright family,” Ansel whispered in Harvey’s ear.“Her father is my father’s good friend. That’s why both our families have a good relationship.”“I didn’t know she was going to come with a doctor. I’m really sorry about that.”“The Wright family?”Harvey smiled after hearing Ansel’s words.“The head of the top ten families in Country H?”“Is Sienna the legendary
Rudolph’s title wasn’t just for show.It was said that he had studied ancient medical skills from both India and the Island Nations, as well as western and eastern medicine. His skills were considered unparalleled.He was also able to filter out most of the useless information and keep only the essence of said medical skills, further pushing him to more lengths.It’s said that even the royal families of Northern Europe would occasionally hire him to treat them, prolonging their lives in the process.However, Rudolph’s price was extremely high; he would charge at least millions of dollars every time.If he had to operate on anyone, it would cost exponentially more.Despite that, his business was still flourishing.Ansel had already heard of the legendary Deathbuster before. Even though the Torres family was quite well-known throughout Flutwell, they were still not good enough to get someone like Rudolph here.If it weren’t for Sienna, Rudolph probably wouldn’t have shown up here
Seeing Rudolph’s disdainful expression…Harvey calmly said, “I’m no doctor.”“And you’re the legendary Deathbuster.”“If you really are that impressive, why couldn’t you fix your own sickness?”“Every time you feel like doing it, you have no strength to actually go through with it. You feel miserable about it, don’t you?”Rudolph’s prideful look froze in an instant.He looked at Harvey, filled with disbelief.He didn’t think that Harvey knew about his unspeakable secret!His reputation would be tarnished if the word about this were to spread!Rudolph furiously changed his expression.“You investigated me?!”Colton and Ansel looked at Rudolph with a strange gaze upon noticing the change in his expression.They naturally knew what Harvey was talking about.Sienna was a little dumbfounded, but then she realized what the conversation was about. She couldn’t help but swallow her spit, her face bright-red.“Why would I? Do you think you’re some hotshot that I’m interested in?”
Rudolph crossed his arms as his assistants pulled out all sorts of precision instruments.“You’ve never seen all these things, have you?”“Let me tell you something: these are special equipment only found in Switzerland! You’d have to work your entire damn life just to have one of these!”“The doctors in my country use real medical skills to save their patients!”“I’ll show you just how good I am right now!”Harvey glanced curiously at the equipment for a short while.“Elder Torres isn’t even sick, but you’ll probably misdiagnose him as having heart failure.”“I’m no doctor, but I can already tell.”“Don’t tell me that you’re going to use all this equipment just to do exactly what I predicted.”Sienna was confused.“You can tell what’s wrong with Uncle Torres?”“You’re not just spouting nonsense, are you?”Harvey chuckled without giving a reply.Rudolph coldly scoffed; he felt utterly embarrassed after all the humiliation from before.He put up a front, and started prepar
Colton chuckled.“Life and death, poor and rich, it’s all destined to be.”“Since there’s not a good chance that I’ll survive, let’s just drop this.”“It’s hard for Mr. Rudolph to come all this way here. Write him a 1.5 million dollar check.”Naturally, Colton didn’t want to take his last breath on the sick bed.Rudolph flashed him a bitter smile.“Thank you for that, Elder Torres…”“But I’m afraid I cannot accept it.”Sienna wasn’t planning to give up just yet.“You’re the youngest director of the International Medical Federation, Mr. Rudolph! You’re a talented man! You’re the Deathbuster! Do you really have no other way of helping Uncle Torres?”“There’s no other way!”Rudolph took a deep breath.“We either take the chance, or we let him die after three months.”“Not just me, even the chairman of the federation won’t be able to help!”Sienna went silent after hearing Rudolph’s words.Harvey smiled calmly and tapped Rudolph’s shoulder.“You have impressive skills, Rudo
"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
Mandy was a little startled, then looked at Harvey with a strange look. "You're in such a rush to get rid of me? Don't tell me you really want to be the mayor's son-in-law? I've been here less than a day, and there are already plenty of people warning me about you becoming one."Harvey rolled his eyes. "Don't listen to their nonsense. If I really wanted to be his son-in-law, I wouldn't have gone to save you.""Then why are you in such a rush to send me away?"Harvey sighed. "There are really some things that are beyond my abilities. Let's use what happened this time with Clarion as an example. It's true that I let him take the glory, but after doing that, Dan now considers me an enemy and a thorn in his side. "As a member of the Top Ten Families, you have some understanding of him, don't you? Since he can't deal with me effectively, he'll definitely start with you. The reason I'm asking you to leave is for your own safety."Mandy clicked her tongue. "If Dan really wants to do
Emery slowly flipped and opened the Chapter of Ascension. The Chapter itself was old, written with small letters. Accompanied the original texts were notes and some insights.Emery only believed a portion of the rumors regarding the Chapter of Ascension. After reading through the notes and personal reflections, he could ascertain that the Chapter of Ascension was genuine.What was written inside the Chapter of Ascension was indeed capable of completely changing a martial artist's way of thinking.As he read through it, Emery was already subconsciously trying to test and start training by following what was recorded within the Chapter of Ascension. He had just started to let the energy inside of him flow, but had already noticed that his power, that reached a bottleneck for some time, started to have a breakthrough.In just an instant, Emery could already feel somewhat stronger. It was only a small amount, but it was enough to excite him. It meant that the Chapter of Ascension w
The Wright residence, Wolsing.When Janus got out of a Rolls-Royce Cullinan, it was around midnight. He looked around carefully before quickly entering a courtyard within the residence, holding a wooden box.He walked through the corridors with full familiarity and entered a study.Emery, the Number One Young Master of Wolsing, was quietly holding a piece of gemstone, brushing it against his thumb.Janus didn't run in. Instead, he waited until Emery was done looking at the gemstone before entering. "Good evening, sir."Emery raised his head and glanced at Janus. "So? Did you get it?"Janus smiled. "Is there anything in this world you want that we can't get for you?"He carefully put the small box on the coffee table and smiled."While Harvey and that idiot Hale are all quite good," he said, "they're all pawns playing to your tune. This time, with Daichi working for us and Sky Plane suffering such a huge loss, we finally have it in our hands. If those monsters from Sky Plane kne
Night fell by the time Harvey and the others returned to Grand City.Kenta had already left midway. It was obvious that he knew following Harvey and the others was pointless now.In the meantime, before returning to Grand City, Harvey had already instructed Clarion to spread the news of Origin Sword Style's extermination back to Grand City and how Earth Hall was instrumental in its destruction.By the time Clarion returned to Grand City, he was immediately enthusiastically welcomed back home. Initially, many people had an issue with him suddenly becoming the leader of Earth Hall. However, they did not expect Clarion to be able to single-handedly handle one of the main pillars of Sky Plane, the Origin Sword Style school shortly after he led the Earth Hall.While many did not know what actually transpired, Clarion and his team brought Isoroku's body back to Grand City. Taking Isoroku's body back was a great achievement on its own as it also means that Sky Plane's overall power would
Isoroku immediately crumpled on the ground. The arrogant master of the Origin Sword Style suddenly surrendered and killed himself. There was only bitterness and regret on his face, as if regretting why he did not simply stay and train in isolation. That way, he would not meet the person before him… Harvey.However, no matter how much regret he had, he needed to commit suicide.That was because he knew very well that Harvey had revealed to him his true identity. If he refused to die, Harvey would turn around and completely wipe out the Origin Sword Style. Now that he decisively made such a decision, Harvey would not return to Sky Plane.Harvey looked at Isoroku's body. With a smirk, he said, "That's why I don't like others to find out who I really am." Then, Harvey planted his foot on Isoroku's longsword. There was a loud clang, and the longsword instantly shattered. Its fragments fired in all directions.All the Origin Sword Style elites had been eradicated completely.A few minut
Isoroku's blade slashed downward. It was so fast that it was barely visible to the naked eye. However, before it could even touch Harvey's body, Isoroku suddenly saw him raise his right hand and flicked, hitting the blade when it was just starting to get close.Clang!It was an extremely simple move. However, Harvey's flick reached the blade first, and he immediately parried the attack. Isoroku's entire body shuddered, and his heart skipped a beat. He thought he was already victorious, but he was left with a shocked expression.He raised his blade and wanted to attempt another attack, but he could not do anything for a long while. Harvey was simply standing there with a calm expression. The two of them were close to each other, and Harvey looked like he was completely exposed. However, for someone like Isoroku, when someone was completely exposed, it also meant that he was not exposed at all. If he was not exposed, his blade could not slash downward at him anymore."You… You must h
