“Come here.”Harvey hooked his finger at Colson.Colson dared not stand up, and wriggled his way over to Harvey.Harvey wiped his fingers again, then swung the back of his palm across Colson’s face.Slap!A crisp slap could be heard as Colson’s body swayed. Seconds later, a bright red palm print appeared on his face.“You came here to stand up for your cousin?” Harvey demanded. Colson’s eyes twitched, but he didn’t say a single word.Slap!Harvey slapped him in the face again.“You didn’t even ask who he was working for before you came here?” Harvey went on.Colson hung his head low.Slap!He took another painful slap.“As a member of the top ten families and the country’s top-rated circle, why are you standing up for the Islanders’ lackey?“Do you have no shame?“Your brother and sister died, but you can’t keep your head down?”Colson didn’t dare to utter a single word of complaint. Harvey tapped hid face.“Since you’re of the same country as me, and because you d
Ramon started to go crazy.He couldn’t wrap his head around why his cousin, who had the strength to stand against the Islanders, completely lost his pride and dignity in front of a live-in son-in-law.‘Is this man really that impressive?’Ramon couldn’t believe it!“Is there something you’re mistaken about, Colson?!” he snarled, gritting his teeth.“He’s just a kept man!“A live-in son-in-law!“Why are you scared of him?“Why should we be scared of him?!“With the lift of your finger, he’ll—”Slap!Colson slapped Ramon without hesitation.“Who asked you to harass Sir York’s family?!” Colson yelled.Slap!“Who gave you the courage to blow up Fortune Hall?”Slap!“Who told you to provoke Sir York?”Slap!“Who do you think you are?”Slap!“Kneel and apologize already!”Ramon stumbled backward after getting slapped around repeatedly.A mouthful of blood came out of his mouth soon after. It was a wretched sight. At the end of the slaps, his entire face had become compl
Ramon covered his face, and pointed fiercely at Harvey. He was filled with unbridled rage.“I don’t know what you have on Colson, kid!“But let me tell you something! I’m a real man! I’ll have a chance to be accepted into the Island Nations in the future!“I will never kneel!“Aside from the Emperor, I will never kneel to any other man!”Chiba chuckled coldly.“That’s right!“We have our own pride! Why should we kneel?“We’d rather kill ourselves than do that!”The Islanders there came to their senses, then started screaming in unison. After all, this was the only way to demonstrate their skill.‘What a bunch of idiots!’Colson was completely speechless. He slapped Ramon to keep the latter alive. He hoped that Harvey would be the better man and let these people go…Yet, not only was Ramon oblivious about that fact, he even fanned the flames by saying all those things. He definitely dug his grave! “Fine! Have it your way.”Colson took a deep breath; he decided to break of
Everyone gasped in shock.However, Harvey crossed his arms and approached Chiba calmly. “Your grandfather?“Is a traitor of a man that impressive?“If he comes here, I’ll deal with him too. Do you believe me?”Chiba sized up Harvey again, then burst out laughing.“Hahaha! You’ll deal with my grandfather?“Who do you think you are?“You want to go against my grandfather?“You’ll be dead the moment he blows air on you! You understand?“I strongly suggest you kneel when you see him later!“If you’re too slow, you might not even get a chance to do that!”Chiba scoffed disdainfully at Harvey.He had seen a lot of ignorant people in his life… But it was his first time seeing someone this arrogant and cocky.“We should get Helm Gibson here, Sir York. Maybe get Mr. Bolton here, too,” Shay suggested, her face grim. “Not only does Jakai have a high position, but his strength is also extraordinary.“He’s said to be close to being a God of War.“Even Helm Gibson or Mr. Bolton mi
Everyone was shocked; as expected for Chiba to be this impressive!A single phone call was enough to bring such a prominent figure here.This alone showed how much Jakai looked up to Chiba, and that Harvey was dead for sure.Colson’s face darkened instantly, thinking that he was destined to suffer that day. The moment he decided to side with Harvey, his enemy brought out such a powerful man.He was done for!The women with Chiba were showing their burning passion. They looked down on people from Country H completely, but they admired the strong—especially ones who were into the culture of the Island Nations.That was why they were interested in Jakai.In a place like Golden Sands, Quill and Azrael would have no choice but to step aside once Jakai showed up; let alone Harvey—the fraud of a kept man.Surely he’d suffer a horrible death soon enough!The Islanders were exhilarated. Before, Harvey had thoroughly humiliated them. Since they finally got a chance to repay the favor,
To Jakai, his dear grandson should be the one taking advantage of others. He could do whatever he wanted, especially after coming to Country H.Yet, he got beaten up completely…This was simply unforgivable!“Powerful people? Who?” Jakai demanded, glaring coldly.Chiba chuckled coldly, then pointed at Colson, who shivered and stumbled backward.“Him!” Chiba said. Slap!Jakai moved his body and slapped Colson to the ground before the latter could even speak. A few outer disciples quickly stepped forward as well, and immediately beat him up.The place turned into a complete mess in mere moments. The outer disciples were so ruthless, nobody could bear to watch them.Colson was an expert martial artist and a spy for Evermore, but he didn’t dare fight back at all.He knew that with Jakai’s prestige and skills, the man could crush him at any given moment! Other than stumbling away to preserve his own life, he had no other way out of the mess.His face became as swollen as a pig’s
Seeing his grandfather stand up to him, Chiba decided to fan the flames.“He also said he’d crush you as soon as you came here!” he said.Ramon and the others nodded repeatedly.“That’s right! This bastard’s too cocky!“He said you don’t qualify to face him!”“He said he’d crush me?” Jakai chuckled coldly.“What an ignorant kid!“I’d let my fifty years’ worth of martial arts down if I don’t teach you a lesson here!”Harvey sized up Jakai.“Yet, you decided to be a traitor to your own country after all that?“Are you really going to be this unreasonable?“You’re a senior of the underworld and an expert martial artist, but you decided to take advantage of people at large like this? You’ll even stand up for the Islanders?”“Heh, heh, heh!”Jakai laughed.“No need to put all the blame on me, kid!“Let me tell you something! This is my dear grandson; no matter how much you run your mouth, I’ll still side with him.“Here, power means everything!“The Islanders are a symbol o
“Well? Are you scared? Are you finally regretting your decision now?”Chiba strutted forward haughtily, looking perfectly smug. “Weren’t you impressive before?“You were looking down at me, weren’t you?“What’s this? You decided to keep quiet now?“You’re terrified, aren’t you?”Chiba reached out to tap Harvey’s face.“Kneel, then!“Watch me play with your wife and sister-in-law later!“If I’m happy after that…“You’ll have a chance to survive!“If not, I’ll have you buried six feet under!”The Islanders grinned wickedly after hearing Chiba’s word. They figured that Harvey was scared, and that a big show was about to happen soon enough.After Chiba got bored with the women, they’d probably be able to get seconds!Harvey had no right to go against a prominent figure like Jakai, no matter how powerful he was…Unless he had a death wish, of course!Slap!But before Chiba’s hand could even reach Harvey, Harvey had already swung the back of his palm forward under the crow
"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
