Seeing Senior Miller’s arrogant look on his face, the beautiful women surrounding Ai covered their mouths slyly and smirked.‘God knows what that b*stard did to humiliate Mrs. Lee..’‘But this means that Ai’s reputation is at stake!’‘As the leader of the Capital Gang, he won’t allow anybody to disrespect him, even at the cost of his life!’‘He’d always reclaim his pride wherever he lost it!’Simply put, the women were sure that Harvey was a dead man.Ai held onto his cigar as he leaned on the couch with his legs crossed.He didn’t stop Senior Miller from acting all high and mighty; there were some things he couldn’t do, considering his identity.That said, a lackey like Senior Miller flaunting his strength was quite effective for his cause.Xynthia quickly stepped back, as if she was scared witless.“I’m so sorry! It’s my fault for not bringing you expensive tea…”“How are you people so rude?!”“This young lady is filled with scars and bruises, yet you had to ruin her tea
Creak!The emergency exit was pushed open. Harvey showed up.He quickly walked over after seeing Xynthia in the distance.“So you actually showed up, Harvey!”Senior Miller took a step forward while touching his aching face. He sized up Harvey before flashing Harvey a wretched smile.“I thought you’d hide forever, you b*stard! I was sure you’d never show up again!”“Now that you’re here, let me tell you something!”“You’ll pay us back tenfold for what happened at Film City and Mrs. Lee’s birthday banquet!”“If you don’t, I’ll kill you once and for all!”Naturally, Senior Miller knew that Ai asked for support before showing up here.That was why Senior Miller was extremely confident in himself. He had never been this arrogant before his entire life.The beautiful women crossed their arms as they studied Harvey.They thought that Harvey was either a wealthy man or an experienced fighter since he dared to slap Senior Miller in the face, utterly disrespect Mrs. Lee, and dared n
Harvey let out a small chuckle. Ai crossed his legs and took a puff of his cigar. “I didn’t think we’d meet again so soon.”“I was a little busy, so I wasn’t able to settle scores with you just yet.”“I didn’t think you’d send yourself to me all of a sudden.”“Have you been living too comfortably? Don’t you want to live anymore?”“Are you here for excitement? Or are you here to die?”Ai froze. Then, he waved his hand to stop Senior Miller and the others from lashing out.“You’re pretty cocky, young man,” he exclaimed coldly while glaring at Harvey.“Since you’ve disrespected Mrs. Lee, that means that you at least have some talent, strength, and the background for that.”“That said, you should know that you’re in Flutwell right now!”“This is the biggest city of Country H’s southwest region! Mordu, the Golden Sands, and Buckwood are on par with it!”“Other than the Golden Palace, the top ten families, and the four cornerstones, there are many other people that you should lea
“Don’t be too stubborn, Harvey York!“You’re still young! There are things that you still can’t handle!Ai Kamino blew out a puff of smoke before he sat up straight.“I admit that I have underestimated you.“But even if you have the Torres family with you, you have no right to do as you please!“For instance, you should be respecting me right now.“After all, you have no right to go against the person behind me.”Then, Ai snapped his fingers before his secretary walked over with a case.Ai opened the case and took out a business card before setting it right on Harvey’s coffee table.Clyde Osborne!There was nothing else on the card besides wild scribbles of the name!The calligraphy felt powerful yet elegant. An aura of invincibility and dominance could be felt just by merely looking at the card!“Clyde Osborne?”Harvey frowned. He was not familiar with the name.Ai showed a profound look on his face.“That’s right. Prince Osborne himself.“I visited his place before co
“Seems like you’re no ordinary person either. At least you have some experience.“You wouldn’t be able to guess that Prince Osborne is from one of the five hidden families if that weren’t the case.Ai Kamino nodded with pride and confidence, blatantly showing on his face.“Since you know what sort of person Prince Osborne is, I’m sure we’ll have a great talk.”Ai then took out a list before throwing it right before Harvey York.Other than Mrs. Lee’s compensation, Film City’s losses for the past few days were also written on the list, along with Senior Miller’s medical fees among other things. Every single thing was written in detail.“You’ll have to compensate for the amount listed here tenfold. Do you understand me?” said Ai while squinting at Harvey.Harvey merely shrugged before showing a smile on his face.“If I wasn’t looking closely, I really thought you were the one compensating my sister-in-law’s losses.“Heh!”Ai disdained Harvey’s sharp tongue. At this moment, he lo
At that moment, a dozen Longmen disciples were following Bowen Lee. It was a truly dominant and spectacular sight.Ai Kamino instinctively stood up as soon as he saw Bowen.He respectfully nodded before smiling coldly at Harvey York.“Speak of the devil.“You’re finished, kid.“Looks like Branch Leader Lee’s in a bad mood…“I don’t think I can help you at this point.“You’re on your own.”After hearing Ai’s words and Bowen’s gloomy expression, Senior Miller and the beautiful women were all looking at Harvey gleefully.‘All this guy does is show off!’‘Who knew that karma would bite back this quick?!’‘Not only is he going against Mr. Kamino, even Branch Leader Lee is here to trample all over him!’Under Ai’s exhilarated gaze, Bowen walked briskly toward Harvey before slamming his knees on the ground.The people behind him kneeled in unison with horrified expressions on their faces.Ai froze before instinctively gasping.“What are you doing, Branch Leader Lee?”Bowen com
Harvey York walked up and patted Ai Kamino’s face before he sighed.“Even Joseph Bauer couldn’t protect Mrs. Lee…“Even Longmen couldn’t keep Bowen Lee safe.“Then, what makes you think Clyde Osborne can enable you to flaunt your strength here?“I didn’t want to deal with you anymore, but I’ll indulge you if you insist on butting in.”Harvey then slowly tore the business card to pieces.The beautiful women were heartbroken, as if Harvey had committed a heinous crime.Ai’s expression also frantically changed.“How dare you tear Prince Osborne’s card, you b*stard?!“You have a death wish or something?!”Slap!Harvey swung the back of his palm across Ai’s face.“I’m not so sure about that…“But I know that you’re looking for yours right now.“Come.“Call the cops.Harvey’s word was enough to seal Ai’s face.“Ai Kamino tried to blackmail me for a hundred and fifty million dollars! Punish him according to the law!”***In just half an hour, Vivian Hall and her team took A
Ai Kamino immediately trotted toward Clyde Osborne before respectfully bowing.“Prince Osborne.”Clyde rinsed his mouth with the seventy-six thousand dollar Red Robe Tea before he said, “Do you think this is a scenic spot, Ai?”Those calm words were enough to astound Ai.He came here on the same morning, but then he showed up once again.This could only mean that Ai did not deal with the arrogant young man he had previously talked about.Not only that, but he also probably lost his reputation in the process.If not, he would not have shown up that quickly.Cold sweat was dripping down Ai’s entire body.“I’m sorry, Prince Osborne. I have tarnished your name. I couldn’t carry out my job properly,” he apologized quietly with his arms on the side.“I wanted to reclaim your reputation for what happened before. That was why I asked for your business card.“But that man tore the card apart and even sent all of us to jail.Ai would not dare lie to Clyde about a single thing.“Righ
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
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
