Harvey York did not mind at all.“Brayan Foster’s a powerful man from the top ten families after all…“It’s only natural for him to look down on a small fry like me.“This has nothing to do with you.“More importantly, I’m sure they’ll beg for my help soon enough.”Harvey showed utter confidence in his calm words.Other than his experiences preventing him from getting angry at such a trivial matter, he believed his words would come true sooner or later.Mandy Zimmer heaved a sigh after seeing Harvey unperturbed.“Maybe I should treat you to a meal tonight…”Harvey smiled faintly.“What? Don’t you hate eating with me?“Why the sudden change? Are you trying to hook up with me or something?”Mandy was infuriated. She wanted to kick Harvey, but there was no way since the two were in the car.Right when the two were fooling around, the villa gate slid open again.A short-haired woman in business attire walked out with eight bodyguards with loaded firearms.The woman was Amora
The bodyguards immediately placed their hands on their firearms, ready to pull the trigger if the conversation went wrong.“Let’s go, Mandy.”Harvey York smiled before patting Mandy Zimmer, frozen in place, for her to drive. Then, the car slowly turned toward the direction of the Ostrane One.The assistant frowned when she looked at where the Ferrari was going.“That’s the legendary Ostrane One, you two.“A mysterious prominent figure lives there.“It’s best that you don’t get too close. If not…“You might suffer the consequences.”The assistant showed a playful expression.In her eyes, the country bumpkins before her were just showing off in their Ferrari. Nobody knew whether the car was theirs or just rented…They would probably take pictures with the Ostrane One for a few hours after finally getting into the Ostrane Bay’s villa area.According to the assistant’s knowledge, Darius Jackson gifted the Ostrane One to a mysterious man.He also ordered nobody else to get close
“It’s nothing. I just figured it wouldn’t seem like a big deal for Darius Jackson to give you a villa judging from your talents.“After all, you’re not even humbling yourself in front of people like Brayan Foster. It’s only natural for Darius to respect you anyway.“That was why I decided.“The villa might just turn into that mistress’ present after all…”Mandy Zimmer smiled faintly.Harvey bitterly chuckled.“What mistress…?”“Kairi Patel, Yvonne Xavier, Queenie York, Kait Walker, Katy Cobb, Leslie Clark, Irene Johnson…Mandy kept counting her fingers as she mentioned the names.“Impressive, Harvey!“I could barely count them all with my fingers!”Harvey cleared his throat.“They’re just friends. It’s inappropriate for you to call them mistresses now, isn’t it…?”“What are you saying? They’re either your secretary, lackey, or besties, right?” Mandy retorted.“Don’t worry. I won’t get jealous because of this. I just think I’ll get angry if you get stolen because I didn’t
When Harvey York returned to Fortune Hall, a Toyota Alphard was parked on an old pier near the Rio River.A few people were comfortably leaning on the seats inside with wine in hand. That said, their expressions were peculiar.The most eye-catching person of them all was Kairi Patel, with one of her trusted subordinates, Dariel Jackson.He once had a huge conflict with Harvey at the Golden Sands Food Market. He was willingly working for Harvey then, but the look of a lackey on him was already long gone.He was constantly perusing the documents showing on his laptop.Kairi looked at her phone for a short while before finally speaking.“How’s everything?”“A little troublesome.”Dariel frowned while holding his laptop.“First off, Quill Gibson had already gone to the Heaven’s Gate because of Jakai Vaus’ death. He was detained by Heaven’s Gate’s law enforcement to investigate the situation further before he could be released.“In that period, the Vaus family isn’t allowed to be
It was natural that a great war was about to happen in the city.That said, Harvey York did not pay much mind about that. As usual, he continued his job as a geomancy expert in the Fortune Hall.For Mandy Zimmer’s safety, Harvey thought about the situation before he texted Queenie York for her to send out Julian York.It was said that ever since Julian suffered great losses, he returned to Hong Kong to train in seclusion. He even kneeled outside Grandma York’s room, begging for an ancient scripture from the family.Harvey wanted to see if Julian had actually grown from the last time and was beneficial in the situation.On the next day, early in the morning. Julian had not arrived, but Harvey received word that Soren Braff found vital evidence at the hospital and was asked to take a look.Harvey asked Thomas Burton to send him there before heading to the VIP sick room.The place was a crime scene. Along with Jakai Vaus’ special identity, the police had been guarding the room to e
Bam bam bam!Towering men started kicking the door. Every single kick was utterly horrifying, as if the door would seemingly topple.Simon Zimmer took a few steps back with an anxious expression. He haphazardly pulled out his phone, thinking of calling the cops, until he realized there was no signal. His face lost all color immediately after.Harvey York felt completely speechless.“What’s going on, Dad?”“I was just trying to be nice!“I came here to deal with Mandy’s discharge procedures…“But when I came across the hallway, I saw a young girl swaying around while walking near the guard rail.“I instinctively went up to get her, but she fell onto the grass downstairs before I could.“We were only two floors up, but she still passed out after the fall.“I called for emergency rescue, but nobody responded.“Her parents seem rich. After seeing the sight, they took their men and started chasing me down without even hearing me out!“I would’ve been dead if I wasn’t quick enoug
Maybe it was because of fear. Perhaps it was because of Harvey York’s calmness.In any case, Harvey’s actions made everyone calm down.They instinctively looked at Harvey, as if they were hoping for something to happen.“What are you trying to do, Harvey?!“You’re not a doctor!“You’re just a geomancy expert! What are you thinking?!”Simon Zimmer trembled. It seemed like Harvey was about to escalate the situation.Toying with a child’s body would probably make things a lot worse.Harvey could not be bothered to reply to Simon. He quickly signaled the man to let go of his daughter before speaking.“Enough of this. Your daughter’s not dead.“Give me time. I’ll bring her back.”The young girl was not breathing anymore. Her heartbeat was completely gone, but her soul was still lingering. Her survival instincts were intact.With enough speed, the girl could be saved using the knowledge from the Book of Changes.That said, Harvey needed to be swift.“What? She’s not even breath
Harvey York could not be bothered to respond to Amora Foster. He quickly dipped his finger in cinnabar and started drawing on a piece of paper. Then, he burned the paper before dropping it in a cup.He poured some water into the cup and fed it to the young girl, but she did not wake up like he expected.He frowned after seeing the sight.“She’s not awake…?“Her soul’s still intact though…”Amora showed more disdain after hearing Harvey muttering to himself.“I told you! He’s just a con man!“He thinks he can revive the dead just because he’s a geomancy expert!“At the end of the day, he’s only trying to get the crowd on his side!“If he’s really that skillful, he would’ve been very well-known in the city already!“You should make him stop right now!“The child will be rolling in her grave if you don’t!“Send him to the police in case he decides to scam people again!”Naturally, Amora did not restrain herself from embarrassing Harvey.She did not mind taking him out by say
"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
