“Joseph can just get his men to carry the coffins out of the place, right?”Mandy was confused.“He wouldn’t dare,” Harvey calmly replied.“The noble Kshatriyas are the ones sleeping there. Every single one of them died in Flutwell for no reason.”“Now that a kind-hearted person gave them such a high-class funeral, the Indians would definitely thank the person no matter what they truly think.”“If Joseph decides to move the coffins away, he’ll completely turn against the Indians and the Celestial Temple.”“Judging from Joseph’s behavior, he wouldn’t do something that would make him suffer any loss.”“He’ll think of another way to deal with this.”“That said, this isn’t what we should be worrying about right now.”“After losing the capital return of the new district, Joseph and the business alliance’s control in Flutwell’s business world will plummet.”“If you want to stand your ground here…”“You should definitely make arrangements as soon as you can. Make sure to take advan
Harvey revealed a calm smile.“I don’t know if Jeff will actually return the money…”“But I do know one thing: it’s only natural for people to give back what’s been owed.”“If you want absolute authority within Hearthstone Corporation and use this opportunity to build a career…”“Taking the money back is a good start.”Harvey chuckled.“While your mother’s gone, I can go with you to the Whitebane Center if you’re feeling well.”“I can get the money back for you.”Mandy shook her head, and flashed Harvey a warm smile. “It’s fine. I've already found someone to do it for me.”“She’ll be able to get the money back. All I need to do is to give her something in return.”Upon seeing the confidence on Mandy’s face, Harvey smiled and said nothing.She had been struggling in the business world for the longest time. Surely, she would have ideas of her own at this point.And so, Harvey patiently waited for Mandy to deal with the situation.…“Brother-In-Law! What a coincidence!”R
“Huh?”The woman’s name was Larisa Lee; upon hearing Harvey’s words, she froze, her pale face going bright red.She instinctively stepped toward Xynthia and whispered, “Is your brother-in-law crazy or something?”“How can he talk to a woman like this?”“Is he still a pervert who’s never touched your sister for three whole years, just like you said?”Naturally, Xynthia must’ve said those things back then. Thus, Larisa was showing an odd look as she glared at Harvey.Xynthia felt awkward.“You’re mistaken, Larisa…”Xynthia quickly thought of a way to relieve the awkwardness.“My brother-in-law’s pretty talented, Larisa.”“He wouldn’t ask you this for no reason.”“Are you actually losing sleep?”Larisa nodded, still looking weirded out. “Xynthia, your brother-in-law isn’t some conman, is he?”“I heard there are people who can see what’s wrong with everyone’s bodies, and use that to scam others…”Xynthia was at a complete loss—she had no idea how to explain the situation.
Harvey shook his head helplessly after seeing Larisa strut away.Xynthia was infuriated.“Honestly! Doesn’t she know how talented you are?!”“She just doesn’t believe you!”Xynthia hesitated for a moment after she was done complaining.“Brother-In-Law, is everything you said true?” she asked while looking at Harvey.“Is Larisa going to be in trouble?”Harvey nodded.“Of course. She’ll be in a life-threatening situation soon.”“Right. You’ll be affected by her evil energy as well. It’s better if you take precautions.”Harvey put a few drops of blood on a new piece of tissue before handing it to Xynthia.“Keep this with you.”“Okay.”Xynthia cleverly nodded her head before happily putting the tissue in her pocket.“Right!”After keeping the tissue, Xynthia slapped her head and said, “I just told Larisa we’d play Script Murder with some of my other university friends.”“Do you want to come?”“Script Murder?”Harvey froze upon hearing the name.“What’s that?”“It’s just
Larisa wasn’t injured very badly—she wasn’t in danger…However, she was in complete shock.She kept twitching on the ground as she covered her wound, and wouldn’t respond to anyone calling her name.Xynthia was so scared that she started shivering.She was the one who pulled the trigger. She didn’t think that the firearm would actually shoot out a live bullet.If it weren’t for the recoil, Larisa would’ve been dead!Xynthia's heart kept racing. She knew she had to call Harvey after something this big happened.After understanding the situation, Harvey drove here as quickly as he could.Flutwell’s Film City was a brightly-lit place filled with food and entertainment.Xynthia kept shivering as she sat slumped on a bench. She was holding a bottle of water, but she didn’t even take a sip of it.The local police force were already involved with the situation. The owner of the Script Murder place was apprehended instantly.Xynthia’s university friends and everyone else had to stay
“Larisa!”“Are you alright?!”“My baby girl!”A middle-aged woman in traditional clothing arrived on the scene with several companions.She approached Larisa anxiously, before throwing a large fit.Senior Miller immediately stood up and bowed in front of the woman, calling her Mrs. Lee.Xynthia wasn’t from Flutwell, so she didn’t know who Mrs. Lee was.The university students began to mumble to each other.“That’s Larisa’s mother!”“I heard she’s from Flutwell’s business alliance! She’s involved with the development of Flutwell’s new district! She’s filthy rich!”“Her father’s even better! I think he’s a prominent figure from Longmen!”“Her family’s so rich! Larisa said she was going to pay for the Script Murder, but who knew that this would happen?”The students were showing admiration; Larisa’s family was simply too extraordinary. She wouldn’t need to ask for a single thing her entire life; she already had everything.The students were born in normal families. Even some
Mrs. Lee glared vengefully at Xynthia.“How do you not understand why I’m hitting you right now?!”“I know everything, you b*tch!”“You were the one who shot my daughter!”“You were jealous of her! That was why you wanted to scare her!”“You knew the gun was going to go off!”“So what if I hit you?! I’m doing this for my daughter!”Mrs. Lee swung her palm again.Slap!This time, however,Xynthia was prepared to block the slap.“Be reasonable, ma’am!”“We came here to play!”“Larisa picked the role herself!”“I was just following the script!”“I’m sorry that this happened…”“But this isn’t my fault! I’m a victim as well!”Xynthia had a helpless look on her face.“Why would I pull the trigger if I knew that there was a bullet?”“I feel guilty about it, but you can’t put all the blame on me!”“Be a little more reasonable! It doesn’t matter if you’re angry!”Xynthia tried her best to explain her situation.Mrs. Lee’s expression turned as cold as ice.“You still can’t c
A few students wanted to stop the fight before they saw Mrs. Lee’s wretched expression on her face. They had no other choice than to watch Xynthia Zimmer being tortured.“You little b*tch! My daughter must’ve bought all these for you, right?!“You take everything from my daughter, yet you’re still trying to kill her out of jealousy?!“People like you deserve to die!”Mrs. Lee was getting tired after slapping Xynthia a dozen more times. She snatched Xynthia’s Hermes handbag with a cold look after that.She thought that a person like Xynthia did not deserve such a thing.The handbag would cost a few thousand dollars just for the shipping!Mrs. Lee believed that Xynthia probably got this from Larisa Lee.She became a lot more furious after that.She took everything out of Xynthia’s handbag and tossed it to the people passing by.“This laptop’s yours now!“Here’s a wallet!“I’m doing a favor for this b*tch!”Mrs. Lee gave everything Xynthia had before keeping the Hermes handba
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
"The joy's of youth," said Isoroku with a sigh of admiration. "To be young means to be fearless. It also means that there is no respect, and there is ignorance just how difficult it is for something to be overcome. When I'm in a good and chatty mood, you're attempting to anger me. You think that it's your power that makes me pause when I'm the one who's bestowing you this opportunity. You're simply too naive."Harvey calmly replied, "So you want to use your age to force me to respect you. Don't you understand that it's always out with the old and in with the new? If you don't, you'll really get thrown out one day."While the two of them were calmly exchanging words, the truth was from the moment they met each other, they were already clashing against each other. "Looks like there's nothing more to say."Isoroku sighed and slowly pointed the edge of his blade at Harvey. "I will now kill everyone close to you first before slicing your limbs. I'll make you die as you scream in pain."
Harvey was already making quite a concession. When he left with Sora, he was already prepared to kill him once he had arrived at his destination. But since Isoroku came knocking, he did not mind giving Sora up since he was not that important anyway."You're so confident, Harvey. So full of vigor. However, you forgot that in this condition, you're not in a place to negotiate," said Isoroku coldly. "Even if someone's going to come up with the conditions, that person will be me."Let's see now… Release that disappointing son of mine, and then leave your woman behind. Then, you will personally maim the limbs of your own men and then yourself. Only then will I allow you to leave on your knees. How does that sound?" It was clear Isoroku thought little of Harvey in the end."I'm not in the business of making life difficult for unimportant people like you. But since the Origin Sword Style has lost so many people, I need to get something back for them as their Predecessor, correct?"Then, H
"I've already heard your name even before you step foot in Grand City. That's because the Six Schools are all connected to the Origin Sword Style. By defeating all Six Schools alone, you have disrespected me," explained Isoroku, as if he was in the mood for a chat."What's more, you even killed my beloved student Sverker and even took down my worthless son? If it isn't because my source is very well trusted, I couldn't even believe it. For you to reach this level of power at this age, it's beyond amazing. Perhaps it's true when they say that the youths should never be underestimated!" Isoroku said with a sigh of admiration.Dozens of elites stepped out from the other military helicopters. They were probably Isoroku's personal students. All of them looked at Harvey with suspicion and shock. All of them knew how powerful Sverker was, that was why they found it even harder to believe that Harvey could defeat Sverker.Even if they put Sverker's defeat on one side, Sora was accompanied b
The opposing force got out of the helicopters after they landed, armed with weapons. Some were melee weapons, some were firearms, and they looked high and mighty all the way.Kenta had no choice but to step up. He raised his hand and yelled, "I'm from Fujihara…"But before he could even finish, someone from the other side had already pulled the trigger. A bullet streaked through Kenta's hair, and he finally broke a sweat when he realized what had just happened.Harvey knew very clearly that they were coming for him after seeing what happened. That was why he decided not to stay still anymore and stepped forward. He coldly said, "You're here for me, aren't you? Tell Isoroku to come talk to me."I have to say you are quite brave, Harvey. Calling me by name without any honorifics," A stern and cold voice came from a helicopter right before them. The door opened, and an islander slowly walked out. It was a man with white hair and beard.His figure was thin and even looked sickly, defi
"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
