“No matter how impressive Colson is, he’s still just the second young master!“In the younger generation of the John family, Blaine is the only one who holds weight.Harvey York had no intention of hiding anything.“Not only is he a direct descendant of the family, he’s an extremely talented person with exceptional martial arts.“More importantly, I suspect he’s the most important figure of Golden Sands related to Evermore.“It’s a little troubling to deal with him because of that.“I let go of Colson and show him my cards for one reason.“I wanted him to know that there aren’t many people in the younger generation who could go against someone like Blaine.“But I’m definitely one of them!“If Colson wants to rise to power, he’ll surely provide me with enough information!“As soon as he calms down, he’ll understand I’m the best person to suppress Blaine.Harvey smiled faintly.“From this perspective, not only would Colson not betray me, but he’d also do everything in his pow
After hearing about the Jackson family’s good relations with the Braff family, Harvey York immediately understood.This was the only Hermit Family that he had not encountered so far.It was fate for him to be meeting one of them here.Harvey smiled before speaking.“That’s fine. Since an expert from the West is here, we should all have a look.“I heard that astrology arts are also pretty impressive.“Maybe the expert could fix the house.“Not bad. Not bad at all.”Eliel Braff patted Harvey’s shoulder once again. He was quite satisfied with Harvey’s attitude and tolerance.The three walked out of the courtyard before seeing a dozen men and women come forward.The group leader was a gentle-looking woman with an extremely reserved attitude.She wore a dress with dark blue patterns, making her seem relatively modest.She would occasionally take huffs of her bong before blowing out puffs of sweet-scented smoke.A westerner in a robe was seen beside her.He was a tall and stron
That said, Mr. Davis was a talented man despite his fees.It was said that he managed to suppress werewolves from Russia, river deities from the Island Nations, and other beings. He was quite a powerful man.For his protection, many Western royal families would use a large sum of gold to hire him annually as a consultant.The world’s top wealthy families would also ask him to determine their luck.Western arts like this have entirely different theories and systems than Country H’s geomancy arts, but Watson Braff felt a lot more confident after seeing Mr. Davis’ appearance.“I met Mr. Davis while I was still studying in the West.“That was why I asked him to come take a look.“That said, he came with his team without questioning a single word!“Many royal families wouldn’t even get his support even after wearing out their mouths!“The bishops of the Divine Prison aren’t just pushovers, after all!”Eliel Braff did not seem to be that surprised.“You’re too kind,” he said, smil
Harvey York’s calm words completely froze Penny Jackson in place.She stared with disbelief. She did not expect Harvey to see through her trouble immediately.She instantly changed expression before showing a fierce glare.“You b*stard!” she exclaimed.“Have you been following me?!”Harvey let out a chuckle.“I’m not interested in a woman like you.“I’ve never even met you before today.“Where would I even follow you?“What would I follow you with?”Penny froze before letting out a cold scoff.“I admit, you do have some talent, but you’re definitely not on Mr. Davis’ level!“Geomancy arts are no match against astrology arts anyway!“With the bit of skill you have, you’re completely inferior!”Harvey calmly smiled.“Enough of this nonsense. Get your bishop to do his job already!”Eliel Braff and Watson Braff curiously looked at the sight. After all, it was quite interesting pitting geomancy arts against astrology arts.Besides, Penny had always been a princess figure of
“What?!”Penny Jackson gasped in disbelief.On the one hand, she did not expect the Braff family to have such a huge problem.On the other hand, she did not think that Harvey York could tell the problem with just a glance.Even Eliel Braff curiously looked at Harvey. Naturally, he had taken an interest in Harvey’s methods and prowess.Watson Braff’s eyes twitched after hearing those statements.“How is this possible?!“The family will be in dire straits in three months?!“Is this a joke?!”Eliel waved his hand.“This is my fault.“I should’ve left the place by now, but I wanted to preserve the property out of my feelings for home…“I didn’t think I’d get everyone else involved because of this…“This is my mistake!”Then, Eliel looked at Mr. Davis.“Do it then, Mr. Davis.“Blow up the house if you have to. Bury me alive if you must.“But I have one request: please don’t let my children get involved in this when everything’s done.”Naturally, Eliel had already said the
Naturally, Watson Braff would not be able to accept that fact.The Braff family was the head of the Hermit Families. They had lasted six hundred years throughout history, yet they only had three months left to live…This was simply unbelievable!Eliel Braff was unnerved by the news.“Alright. Enough of this. We won’t need many people to help with the house anymore.“Watson, Mr. Davis went out of his way just to come here.“Give him twenty ounces of gold to show our sincerity.”Naturally, time is of the essence for Eliel. The Braff family needed to use their remaining three months to prepare themselves.If not, they would be doomed without knowing what were to happen.Judging from the current situation, turning the Braff family into an ordinary family was their only way out.Eliel understood this. He did not want to fight against the current anymore.Mr. Davis was smart. He obviously knew what was on Eliel’s mind.“Thank you, Mr. Braff!” he said with a bitter chuckle.“That
“A hundred percent?!“You’re that confident?!Penny Jackson immediately lashed out.“Can you stop bluffing already?!“You keep doing this; pigs will actually start to fly!“How dare you say you’re that confident?!“You think this is a damn movie or something?!”After hearing Harvey York’s words, Watson Braff instinctively stepped forward.“I believe in Sir York!”He knew Harvey was a calm and resolute man.Since he said that he was confident, then that was nothing but the truth!“Not bad, young man!“At least I wasn’t this bold to trick people like this when I was around your age!Mr. Davis showed a disdainful glare as he stared at Harvey.“That said, you’d still have to show your strength no matter the case.“Pulling the crowd here will do you no good!“I’ll make it clear right now!“If you even manage to solve the problem, I’ll kneel and call you my master!”Naturally, Mr. Davis had a smooth sailing life for the longest time. His title as bishop of the Divine Prison
Harvey York lightly nodded.“That’s right.”“Good!”Eliel Braff burst out laughing, as if he had already decided.“Since you’re that confident, I’m willing to put the family’s fate in your hands!“Do as you wish, Harvey.”In Eliel’s eyes, he was more curious about Harvey, who seemed extremely confident in helping the family.Penny Jackson could not hold her feelings back when she realized Harvey managed to gain Eliel’s trust.“Grandpa Eliel…”Mr. Davis’ handsome face turned dark before he waved both his hands.“You can’t, Mr. Braff! You can’t!“You’ll be in deep trouble if you actually trust his conman!“Even I wouldn’t be able to deal with the mess when that happens!”“It’s already settled.Eliel smiled while crossing his arms.“How are you planning to deal with this, Harvey?“Are you going to tear this place down as well?”Penny coldly glared at Harvey.“If anything happens to the family, I’ll drag you down!“I’ll make your friends and family join you too!”Harvey
"While Country H is said to have existed for so many years, the people can be quite narrow-minded. They'll act all arrogant because they have a bit of talent. Not only that, but they also refuse to accept the rest of the civilized world. There's no need to get angry with these people," Juliana said to Hawk's men, her tone filled with concern."All of them say they love their country, but the truth is that they'll leave for greener pastures as soon as opportunities present themselves. Despite agreeing with your values, I'm still part of this country. I wish I could really be part of you!" Juliana said, envy and disappointment on her face.Hawk and the others smiled when they saw Juliana's attitude. If most of the people from Country H acted like this, their cultural victory would be assured. At this point, all of them smiled widely and abandoned whatever upset feelings they had from just now.-About ten minutes later, Harvey took Alexei back to the Dragon Gate Training Hall. Va
When Juliana and the others saw Harvey and Alexei leave, all of them could only grit their teeth in anger despite being genuinely surprised. They didn't expect Harvey's call to be enough to remove Hawk's status as a Knight Templar with one call. His quick action had humiliated Hawk and his men.Normally speaking, they would never believe that Harvey would be able to do such a thing. They didn't expect that reality could be so cruel to the point that it was choking them. Harvey was so influential that they found themselves struggling to breathe."Calm down, Hawk. Don't feel down. I don't think that what happened is real," Juliana said as she subconsciously consoled Hawk. "His reputation is built on boasts. He doesn't understand just how powerful your culture is! There's no way he can affect the powerful Knights Templar."I suspect he's working with someone else and got a fake number, so that he could intimidate and trick you! In other words, you can't let this confuse you! Even i
Harvey narrowed his eyes and said calmly to Hawk, "If you're really that powerful, you won't be wearing that expression when you see me."The so-called top from their side would not only treat him with respect, but they would also get the hell out of there as fast as possible.However, Hawk didn't understand what Harvey was trying to convey. He smiled coldly and said, "You don't understand what the Knight Templars mean, do you? Before this name, even dragons and beasts must fall! And when it comes to someone like you… The moment I showed you my identity, you won't even have the privilege to bend your knee!"Harvey refuted calmly, "If you're really that influential, won't it humiliate you completely if I can make you bend your knee with one call?"Hawk's expression turned brutal. "Oh? You're going to make a move? Come on, then! Show me just how good you really are!"Harvey nodded and pulled out his phone as he looked at Hawk. "Since you asked for it, I guess I have no choice but
Harvey scoffed. He couldn't be bothered by wasting his breath speaking to someone like Juliana, who obviously had been hit on the head. Instead, he turned to Alexei. "I'm leaving now. You either leave with me, or you can stay here and be a simp. But remember—if you stay as her simp, don't appear in front of me again. A man who has no pride and a backbone doesn't have the right to stand in front of me."Hearing that, there was a hint of hesitation on Alexei's face.When Juliana saw that Harvey didn't agree to her demand and even changed the subject, she smiled coldly. "If you have a death wish, then I'll grant it to you. I won't pull my punches from here on out. And you, Alexei. You can try and leave with him… As long as you can bear the consequences of that!"Alexei's expression was filled with even more hesitation. In the end, he gritted his teeth and left together with Harvey.Juliana's smile turned icy when she saw what had happened. "Good, Alexei! You'll regret this! From n
"I'm sorry! It's all my fault! My entire fault! I shouldn't have forced you!" Alexei said, lowering his head dejectedly. Seeing this, Juliana walked over and extended her hand, raising Alexei's chin. She said coldly, "It's good that you know you're making a mistake. Now, Hawk and I will need to get some rest at the hotel. We'll also be going to a charity ball later. Since we're very busy, we don't have the time to pay for our meal. Remember to pay for it and our presidential suite as well. Understand?"While Juliana looked down at Alexei, she didn't mind making Alexei pay for everything. From her perspective, it was a matter of course.When Alexei heard it, he still nodded despite the dark expression on his face.He wanted to take his wallet out, but Harvey quickly stopped Alexei and took his wallet instead. "If you have the money for a woman, why don't you come with me and eat something at the nearby stall? Don't waste your life and time on a woman like this."Harvey dragged A
After Alexei heard what Harvey had to say, his expression was filled with hesitation. It was obvious that he did have feelings for Juliana. However, there was also fear. He didn't know what he should do.He was afraid that Juliana might really abandon him. At the same time, he was really afraid that Juliana was cheating. Alexei felt like he was stuck between a rock and a hard place."Alexei? Why are you here?" At this time, a cold and arrogant voice could be heard. "Are you here to ambush me? So that you can annoy me?"Harvey instinctively turned around and saw Juliana and Hawk walking out from the restaurant hand-in-hand like a wealthy couple. Behind them were their secretaries, lawyers, and bodyguards. They looked like important people; on the other hand, Alexei looked like a beggar by the street.Alexei quickly ran over, forcing himself to smile despite being upset. "I heard you're back, Juliana, so I came over to pick you up. You must be tired now. I've arranged for a pre
"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
