Pffft!Gepard spat out blood and slammed to the ground, his body twitching. He mustered his strength to get back up, but to no avail.His expression changed, and he screamed in anger, “What did you do to me, you bastard? What did you do?!”Harvey wiped his fingers with some tissues, not even raising his head.“You’re a martial artist yourself. Can’t you tell? You’re a cripple now. Live the rest of your life in a wheelchair.”“What?!”Gepard’s expression changed instantly. He desperately tried to stand up to fight Harvey to the death. Just as he was about to stand, he fell to the ground again. His body ached all over.Not only did Harvey cripple his martial arts, but he also severed Gepard’s connections to his veins. From then onward, he wouldn’t be able to lift even a single finger.“How dare you cripple Mr. Gepard, you bastard?”The Corpse Walkers were enraged; they pointed their firearms and crossbows right in Harvey’s direction.“Do you know what you just did, Harvey? Do y
Harvey smiled. He had already figured that Blaine was involved in the situation, but he had no proof.Now that Kensley had shown up, there was no need for that any longer.She was the biggest proof there was.“Ms. Kensley, Vaughn won’t be here to protect you anymore,” Harvey said calmly as he looked at Kensley’s fierce expression.“If I break your limbs on accident…“You won’t get another chance to be with your dear young master. You’ll be staying with Vaughn instead.“Have you thought of the consequences of coming here?”Kensley’s face darkened.The elder of the Corpse Walkers coldly chuckled.“Do you see how arrogant that bastard is, Ms. Kensley?“Not only did he disrespect us, but he even crippled Mr. Gepard!“The Corpse Walkers were invited by Young Master John. We only considered developing and investing in the Golden Sands because he asked us to!“And now, this nobody came all the way here just to trample all over us!“At this point, we need to reconsider the deal we
Kensley laughed coldly.“I don’t care what Young Master Cedric did, Harvey!“Even if he committed murder and arson…“He’s still Young Master John’s important guest!“No matter what he did, he doesn’t need to answer to you!“In any case…“You can report this to the authorities or the John family!“But who gave you the right and courage to do whatever you please in the John family’s territory?“You already hurt Young Master Cedric’s men! I’m sorry, but I’ll have to take you down!”Harvey chuckled.“Even your young master might not say things like that to me…“And yet, you think you have the right to that?”Kensley smiled coldly.“Don’t forget. You only have this authority because of the Heaven’s Gate’s badge!“It’s not because you’re actually the acting head!“Even if you are, you have no choice but to kneel in front of the Country H Martial Arts Alliance!“I have another identity recently, too!“I’m Golden Sands’ representative of the Martial Arts Alliance!”Kensley ap
Harvey held his phone up with a small smile.“Of course there is.“These people here wouldn’t lay a single finger on me.“Your fake power will be stripped away soon enough!”Kensley laughed coldly.“Stop pretending, Harvey!“Your own ignorance is making you naive!“What’s that? You’re going to remove me from power?“Are you even worthy?”Harvey chuckled. “Seeing you acting this impressive, I wonder if you’ll stay the same later…”“Keep pretending!” Kensley scoffed. “Do you think you can do anything to me? Let me tell you something! If you could actually do something like that, I’ll even strip just for you!”Harvey smiled. “I’m sorry, but I’m not interested in you at all.”“You…” Kensley was shivering in anger.Harvey calmly dialed a number, then turned on speaker mode. An old yet dignified voice could soon be heard from the other side.“This is the Martial Arts Alliance’s office. What seems to be the problem?”“I don’t care who you are, but I’m Harvey…” Harvey began. “I
“That’s right!”Cedric clapped, a smile on his face.“The Corpse Walkers sincerely came here to look into investments, yet this nobody trampled all over us!“We need someone like Ms. Kensley to protect us and uphold justice!“Don’t worry! We’ll visit the Martial Arts Alliance ourselves later.“The Corpse Walkers are a family of martial artists! Surely, they’ll show their respect to us!“Nobody can remove Ms. Kensley from her position!”Naturally, it’d be best for Cedric if Kensley took out Harvey on her own.Not only would the problem be solved permanently, but Cedric’s relationship with Blaine would also deepen.“Harvey…”Kensley took a deep breath, and hung up the call. She glared coldly at Harvey.“Forget the representative of the Gangnam Martial Arts Alliance, I won’t give in even the leader calls!“Since you dare hurt the Corpse Walkers and ruin the city’s interests, you’ll have to pay the price!“Besides, I have a good relationship with Longmen as well!“Let me tell
“Goddaughter? Kensley?”Justin’s eyes twitched.“I would never do that to you, Sir York! You know me!“I’ll agree to let my own daughter be your mistress if that’s what you want!”Harvey’s expression darkened. “Enough of that nonsense!”Justin coughed.“Kensley calls herself a direct descendant of the Quinlan family, but she’s just a bastard!“She doesn’t have much status in the family. If she does, she wouldn’t be siding with Blaine!“Blaine was the one who got her to be my goddaughter in the first place.“Don’t worry! If that bitch uses my title or Longmen’s name to take advantage of people outside, I’ll make sure she gives you a fair statement!”Justin hung up on the call. Right after that, Kensley’s phone started ringing.Kensley looked at the screen, and her face completely lost all color.Naturally, her dear godfather called.The call alone was enough to show that her relationship with Longmen was severed.Harvey looked at Kensley with a small smile.“As expected f
Kensley gritted her teeth.“What do you want, Harvey?” she asked coldly.“Judging from your face, you wouldn’t give me a proper explanation. In that case, I’ll just do it myself!”Harvey took a step forward, and swung the back of his palm across Kensley’s face.Kensley stumbled back, a bright red palm print now seen on her face.She looked at Harvey in disbelief, but she wouldn’t dare say a single word, as if she was scared of getting slapped again.“This one’s for taking advantage of people using the Martial Arts Alliance’s name!”Slap!Harvey stepped forward and slapped Kensley in the face again.“This one’s for using Longmen’s reputation to do whatever you please!”Slap!“This last one’s for you siding with evil without any regard!”When he was done slapping her around, Harvey then kicked Kensley to the ground.“Leave!” he roared.“You…”Kensley was covering her face. She wanted to talk back at Harvey, but she instinctively shivered when she saw his calm expression. S
After getting justice for Mandy, Harvey immediately went to Darwin and the others. He told them to send experts for Mandy and her family’s protection twenty-four-seven.There was no solid proof, but Blaine’s involvement in this was heavily implied. The man’s methods and patience couldn’t be compared to any ordinary man. He’d most likely try to take out Harvey again.However, with the experts of Golden Sands’ branch of Heaven’s Gate, Harvey believed that Blaine wouldn’t be as blatant as he was before.And so, the next few days were quite peaceful.When Harvey went to fetch Mandy out of the hospital, he explained the situation to Lilian as well.Surprisingly, Lilian didn’t scream at Harvey’s face this time. Naturally, she had already received word about the situation.Elodie and her mother must’ve looked for Lilian for trouble the same night.When Harvey was pondering whether he should go to the John family himself, Watson called. He told Harvey that the Brarff family’s ancestra
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
