“We did pretty well together when we collaborated a few times.”“As long as you give me back my properties and apologize, I’ll at least consider forgiving you, right?”Harvey York showed a bitter expression on his face.“Why would you bother making a mess out of the whole thing?“I gave a thought about your suggestion.”Jeff Bauer looked as if he wanted to have a heart-to-heart talk with Harvey.“It’s a shame that you forgot something…“I’m also in a tough spot too!“Even though I’m the top young master of the Bauer family, even though I’m supported by half of Longmen’s higher-ups…“You forget that Grandma Bauer despises me!“All she ever wanted is for Harold Bauer to rise to power!“Under these circumstances, I can’t just let someone else have the properties of Flutwell’s business alliance now, can I?“I’ll be ruining my future by doing this! Grandma Bauer will have an excuse to take me out!“People like me are destined to rise! If I lose that chance, I might as well just
Slap!Harvey York calmly swung the back of his palm across the expert’s face in front of him.The expert felt a sharp pain before he blacked out as he was sent flying.The expert crashed into the crowd, simultaneously knocking out a few others.Then, Harvey casually slammed his hand on the table. A few plates immediately shattered into pieces before flying everywhere.“Aaagh!”Screams of pain could be heard, but it was not enough to stop the experts.Whenever someone would fall, others would replace them. Those people were fearless. They were like moths to the flame, swarming Harvey relentlessly.Harvey still remained as calm as a cat. Sometimes, he would throw more utensils. Other times, he would just slap the experts in the face.The mistresses who were hiding in the dark to watch the show could not believe what they were seeing.It was their first time seeing someone this calm while going against this many experts.Elanor Stanton, backed up to the door with a horrified lo
“Die! Die! Die!”Arya Johnson was screaming relentlessly as her movements were getting faster.The sword in her hand was slashing from different angles. She really wanted to rip Harvey York to pieces.Harvey showed a calm look when he evaded Arya’s attacks with ease.The experts from the Bauer family were utterly shocked.After all, everyone knew just how powerful Arya was…But even she was not able to lay a scratch on Harvey.Jeff Bauer, who seemed confident the entire time, showed a horrible expression when he saw the sight.He already thought highly of Harvey. He had used almost all of his resources just for this event.There would be a lot of trouble if Harvey managed to leave this place alive!While Jeff was frowning, Arya’s body turned into an afterimage when the gleam of her blade completely surrounded Harvey.Slap!Right when everyone thought that Arya was about to win, a resounding slap could be heard.The dazzling gleam was gone. Even the afterimages also disappe
“What? Are you going to give up? Or are you planning to see how far you can go?”Jeff’s face was gloomy. “You should know, I have enough people to deal with you! They’ll tire you out if they have to!”“Not bad. You have a lot of strong people with you.”Harvey smiled calmly.“But since I knew you were planning to do this to me in the first place, why would you assume I’d come here alone?”Jeff froze. Then, he glared furiously at Elanor.“You useless wench!”Bam!Almost at the same time, the door of Eclipse Building was kicked open. A hundred people in robes and face masks swarmed in immediately.They were all holding swords, looking very calm.Rachel was standing in the middle of them.They quickly scattered around Harvey, ready to confront the experts of the Bauer family.“Longmen’s Law Enforcement?”“Rachel?”Jeff chuckled coldly.“Are you all insane?!”“Did you forget who I am?”“How dare you cause trouble with your men here! Who do you think you are?”“I didn’t
Harvey stood up. Rachel instinctively took a step backwards; she wouldn’t dare stand next to Harvey.Jeff froze at the sight.Elanor was confused as well.An impossible thought came to their minds right then and there.Harvey calmly smiled.“I am the head of Law Enforcement.”The disciples of Law Enforcement all saluted with stern expressions and swords in hand.“At your service, Head York!”“All hail Head York!”The sound echoed throughout the entire place.Jeff froze instantly; his mistresses became completely slack with shock as well.“Head York?!”Elanor was completely shocked; she figured out from Jeff that Harvey was probably supported by the head of Longmen’s Law Enforcement…But she never once thought that Harvey was the head himself!“Head York?”“People have been saying that the newly-appointed head of Law Enforcement is a God of War—a top talent with terrifying strength that the master of Longmen trusts. There’s no way he’s the man, right?”“How is it possibl
Before long, frantic footsteps could be heard from outside.It was clear there were a lot more people outside, more than Jeff’s experts.Blood would fill up the entire building if the situation wasn’t handled properly!After hearing Harvey’s words, Jeff’s trusted subordinate stepped forward. The man screamed, “Even if you’re the head of Law Enforcement, what gives you the right to bark at Young Master Bauer?!”“Longmen and the Bauer family are two different things! You think you can just get involved with the family’s affairs so easily?!”People were completely moved by the subordinates’ words. They started screaming in unison.They were all claiming that the head of Law Enforcement had no right to take down Jeff.At the same time, a few other subordinates saw people with crossbows and sniper rifles peeking their heads out on the high ground, waiting for the moment to pull the trigger.“True, Longmen does not have the right to govern the Bauer family…”Harvey’s words made the
Swoosh!Harvey took the initiative and stepped forward.His movement didn’t seem fast to the naked eye, but it was quicker than anyone’s imagination.In a blink of an eye, he was already standing in front of Jeff.Jeff’s trusted subordinates couldn’t even react to the situation.Slap!Jeff, who was screaming to fight back, was instantly sent flying by a hard slap across his face; blood splattered everywhere as he slammed right into a pillar behind him.Before he could get back off the ground, a cold hand was already grabbing him by the neck.Slap!Harvey swung the back of his palm across Jeff’s face, waking up Jeff right as he was about to pass out.“You’re pretty boring, Young Master Bauer.”“Why do you always have to be such a glutton for punishment? I get so exhausted just by talking to you.”“I’m asking you this one last time…”“How will you choose?”The crowd was dead silent.‘How?!’‘How is this possible?!’Jeff was a martial arts expert!Even though he was no G
Out of the three young masters of the family, Jeff was a conceited man and Joseph had remained distant.Even so, the two were prominent figures who enjoyed being the center of attention.Harold was different; he had been loved by Grandma Bauer since he was a child. He had always been discreet and rarely showed himself to the public.The world knew that there were three young masters, but not a lot of people knew what Harold looked like or what he was capable of.After so many years, Harold quietly took control of everything Grandma Bauer handed to him.He was an extremely patient man as well; other than sending a few people to test Joseph after his failure…He didn’t attack Flutwell’s business alliance, nor did he try to take the properties all to himself.He was a ghost without a shadow.But when he showed up at this moment, everyone could tell just how powerful he was—his immense authority within the Bauer family was on clear display.His presence and attention alone had alr
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
