It was an utterly shocking sight.Elan, who was smoking his cigar, looked utterly bewildered. His junior slid down the windshield right in front of his eyes, covered in injuries.After seeing what happened, he was completely infuriated.“You b*stard! How dare you lay your hands on my junior? Have you thought of the consequences of doing such a thing?!’Elan screamed in rage, preparing to strike a devastating blow.But before he could even move, Harvey’s slap had already landed on his face.He was immediately sent flying, and crashed right into the trunk.By then, he could only see Harvey’s emotionless face before him.“You’re no good, but you talk a lot.”Harvey calmly wiped his fingers with some tissue.Elan didn’t think that he’d be defeated before he even made a move.Meanwhile, Aella was on the verge of coughing up blood upon seeing her superior defeated; she no longer had the strength to even stand up.Harvey calmly took out his phone before dialing a number.“Clean
After greeting Mandy, Aunt Anderson turned her gaze back toward Lilian.“I had no other choice, Lilian! That was why I came,” she said with an annoyed expression.“You know me. I’m a prideful woman!”“I wouldn’t lower my head like this if it wasn’t serious!”“Nova’s into jewelry design, but she couldn’t find a suitable job for the longest time.”“Businesses nowadays have absolutely no standards!”“I called every single one of them, saying that my daughter’s a genius! A talented woman like her would need at least three thousand dollars per month, along with a five-star dormitory and a private car.”“And then what happened? Those businesses only gave her four hundred and fifty dollars and a public dorm!”“They’re clearly looking down at my daughter!”Aunt Anderson was shedding crocodile tears while beating her chest repeatedly.Nova, on the other hand, casually swiped her phone without even responding; as if she had nothing to do with the situation.Lilian pondered the situati
“Of course I know that it’ll be hard to get in! That’s why we’re here begging for your help!”Aunt Anderson had a righteous look on her face.“To say nothing of Lilian…”“But Mandy’s the head of the Jean family’s ninth branch!”“That branch’s going bankrupt, but it’s way better than nothing.”“With Mandy’s help, it’d be as easy as pie for Nova to get into the company!”Aunt Anderson flashed them a sinister smile.“Of course, if you’re not willing to help, or if you’re scared that I’ll owe you a favor…”“Just tell it to us straight!”“We’ll make sure to announce this to our entire family!”Lilian and Simon looked at each other.Aside from being utterly greedy, Lilian was also an extremely prideful woman.After getting a new bag, she’d post pictures of it in many different friend groups. If Aunt Anderson told everyone about how unhelpful she was, how would she show off again in the future?That said, it was almost impossible for her to help.It wasn’t that she didn’t want t
“Simon, Lilian, Mandy. I think you should do this for us!”“After all, you’ve been showing off in all those friend groups and flaunting your connections with big characters all over the place.”“If you’re unwilling to help, what would happen to me and my child?”Aunt Anderson’s expression worsened after seeing the bitter looks on Lilian and the others’ faces.“Are you just going to watch my dear child turn into useless filth because she has no job?”“Can you bear that?”Nova reluctantly put down her phone that had just run out of battery, and scoffed coldly.“I don’t think Aunty and Uncle are powerless at all, Mother.”“Now that they’re all rich, they must be looking down on us poor relatives.”“They think they’re impressive just because they have a bit more money than us!”“Stop showing off in friend groups, then!”Harvey smiled after hearing Nova’s words.‘Whatever she said was so dumb that it was cute?’Mandy sighed.“It’s not that we don’t want to help, Aunty. We real
“Ha! You haven’t even tried anything, and yet you’re telling us that you’re doing your best?”“Is this what your help is supposed to look like?”Aunt Anderson laughed coldly.“If we weren’t relatives in the first place, do you think you have the right to help Nova?”“Besides, I’m from the government!”“I’m already begging you the best I can. I showed you respect, but you people just won’t accept it!”“You’re shameless!”Lilian froze; this was her first time meeting someone more unreasonable than her.She was completely furious, and gritted her teeth.“You wench! You’re saying that we should be honored to help you?!”“Father, Mother…”Mandy couldn’t help but rub her forehead after seeing that a fight was about to break out.“Maybe you should just help Aunt Anderson, Harvey,” she said after instinctively looking at Harvey.She remembered that Harvey brought out Wes’s personal card at the bank just now.This meant that he had connections with Wes.Judging from Harvey’s atti
Lilian didn’t know where Harvey picked the card up from…She instinctively took a glance, and was immediately shocked.“That’s right! That’s Wes’s card! Only people he’s friends with can have that!”“Heh, heh! Wes’s card?”Aunt Anderson got even more furious after hearing those words.“If your live-in son-in-law can get Wes’s card, then I should be able to get the Golden Sands’ first-in-command’s card!”“You people have connections with the Jean family—you’re basically rich for being the head of the ninth branch! How did you get so shameless after that?”“Not only do you keep spouting nonsense, but you’re even using such a lame reason to sugarcoat everything!”“You disappoint me!”“If you hate us, just spit it out! We won’t show up ever again! Are you happy?!”Aunt Anderson was seething with rage, and recalled the gift she had brought from a stall.She felt that she needed to take the purple teapot on the table away to recuperate from her loss.Lilian and Simon’s bodies wer
Nova felt very proud of herself. After all, Archa Corporation was being ridiculously generous to give her such a high salary!Judging from the salary, it wouldn’t be hard for her to get fifty thousand dollars per year!Aunt Anderson was still in disbelief.“Is that call really from Archa Corporation? There’s no mistake, right?”“Mmm. I’m sure of it! I met the manager before, too. She sounds exactly the same!”Nova’s pompous expression was blatant.“Those people really do have a good eye after all!”Mandy glanced at Harvey, a profound expression on her face.She didn’t think that Harvey had such a good relationship with Archa Corporation.A simple call was enough to deal with the entire situation.‘It’s not because of Kairi, is it?’She could barely hear the voice of a woman on Harvey’s phone before. There were only so many who had the company’s respect in Golden Sands, after all.Harvey chuckled bitterly upon sensing a spark of jealousy in the air.He couldn’t just say t
“You belong to the ninth branch! Wes has no respect for you people!”“What can a live-in son-in-law even do at this point? What kind of respect can he get?”“You don’t even know how to bluff!”Naturally, Aunt Anderson didn’t believe that Harvey actually helped with the situation.“You…”Lilian was shaking with rage upon seeing Aunt Anderson turn her back as soon as she got what she wanted.She didn’t actually believe that Harvey actually did this, but she couldn’t help but speak up.“Harvey! Tell her that you did it!”Naturally, she knew Nova had no right to be in Zimmer Enterprise with her meager abilities, let alone a place like Archa Corporation.That was why she thought that maybe Harvey and Wes knew each other.With everything that had happened in Flutwell, Lilian was sure Harvey managed to get support from some prominent figure.She disdained Harvey, but she didn’t want Aunt Anderson to take all the credit and trample all over her either.After seeing Mandy’s horrible
"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
