“Bastard! Who are you?!”Darby finally came to his senses. He stumbled off the ground, looking shocked.At the same time, he waved his hand to stop the bodyguards from doing anything. He stared deep into Harvey’s eye.He found Harvey domineering, but…He was a smart man as well!He knew there were only two kinds of people who would dare lay their fingers on him.Either they be prominent figures…Or someone with loose screws.He needed to make sure which one Harvey was before he could take action.“Who am I?” Harvey said with his arms crossed.“I’m a geomancy expert. I own Fortune Hall.“So what if I slap you?“As the owner of an underground casino, not only are you unwilling to admit defeat, but you’re even accusing your customers of cheating! How dare you talk back after getting slapped in the face?”‘A geomancy expert?!’Everyone looked at each other after hearing those words.‘Someone like that dares to go against Darby?‘What a joke!’Darby froze, then chuckled wre
Darby’s eyes were red.He slowly reached out for a beer bottle under the table.“How dare you?!“How dare you hit my face when you’re just a damn geomancy expert?!“I’ll be sure to make you suffer!”Harvey laughed. “You think you can do that?”Darby chuckled angrily after hearing Harvey’s words. He was completely infuriated. The entire situation was plain hilarious to him!‘What age are we living in?‘What day is this?‘It’s crazy enough to have a random geomancy expert slapping me around…‘What’s more, he’s doubting my strength!‘If I don’t crush him, my family’s name will be tarnished!‘I’d be betraying Young Master John’s trust!‘My reputation in the underworld will go down the drain!‘My pride matters!’The customers and beautiful dealers were horrified to see Darby’s fierce expression. They were also scared of the insane man who dared to challenge Darby’s authority.Harvey would probably get everyone else dragged into the mud if he did anything out of hand.“Since
Darby glared at Harvey, then dialed a number on his phone.“You need me to call people, Sir York?” Kade asked sternly.He managed to take advantage of the situation with his firearm… But his reputation was still close to nothing. As the young master of the Xavier family, he was by no means an easy opponent to deal with.“Enough, Harvey!” Simon urged quietly. “Let’s get out of here already!”Mandy tried to drag Harvey out of the place as well.“Nobody gets to leave! This is my order!”A figure showed up at the entrance.He took a step forward and appeared in front of Kade; immediately, he threw a punch at lightning speed.It was a fearsome move; Kade instinctively raised his firearm, but he was too late.Pffft!Blood gushed out of Kade’s mouth, and he stumbled a few steps back.Everyone finally managed to see the figure clearly. It was a man in a robe and a small mustache. He stood bare-footed, and gave everyone quite the fierce impression.It was clear that he was an Island
Darby naturally hoped he’d be able to take down Harvey and have Mandy for himself, but…He simply had no power.Since Blaine had grown impatient enough to show up personally, Darby decided to let him handle the situation instead.After all, the pieces were all ready; it shouldn’t be hard for Blaine to finish the job.After hearing Darby’s complaints, Blaine looked deeply into Harvey’s eyes. Then, he looked curiously at Mandy.He took a seat, and Kensley made him some tea.After taking a sip of tea with an ancient-looking cup, he sighed tragically, as if he pitied the swift passing of life.Harvey clicked his tongue; so far, Blaine was definitely the best at showing off.After finishing his tea, Blaine smiled calmly at Harvey and Mandy.“We’ve dated before, Mandy. We basically know each other.“I’ve been looking into you as well, Harvey.“It’s an honor to meet you two here.“That said, I have to explain something.“Both Young Master Darby and I have shares in the undergroun
Darby froze after hearing Mandy’s words.He only thought that Mandy came from an ordinary wealthy family, but after hearing that Blaine had a date with her before…He didn’t expect her to be from the top ten families as well.Blaine was shocked by how blunt Mandy was. Then, he shot her a playful expression.“Are you saying that I set you up?” he asked.“Just cut to the chase! You’re not trying to deny that now, are you?” Mandy replied.Blaine smiled.“Interesting. I’m more into you now.“How about this? Since we’re at this point…“I can let this situation off the hook, but on one condition—”“I refuse!” Mandy yelled.She decisively went against Blaine before he could finish his sentence.“We’re incompatible. I’ll never accept you. Besides, with your status, you have heaps of women flocking to you anyway. Why waste time on me? It’s just not worth it!”Blaine chuckled coldly.“Even my own father wouldn’t lecture me.“Are you teaching me a lesson?“Let me tell you somethin
Harvey had already taken Kade’s firearm and took off its safety. He pointed it at Blaine’s head, ignoring the rest.The air tensed up in an instant.“Are you insane?!“How dare you point a firearm at Young Master John? This is a sin!“You’re asking for your entire family to be destroyed!“Let him go, or we’ll kill you first!“When we’re done with you, we’ll go for your family! Even your ancestors buried six feet under!”Everyone screamed in rage, shaking up the entire place. They wanted to slap Harvey to death so badly. His actions were incomprehensible. ‘How dare he point a firearm at Blaine?‘Does he not realize how big of a situation this is?‘The entire Golden Sands would be in an uproar if the public knew about this!’Harvey swung the firearm at Blaine’s forehead.“You’re not dead yet, are you? Say something.“Where are your manners? You haven’t answered my question yet.“Did you not hear me after getting slammed on the table?“I’ll ask you again…“Are you happy w
Blaine didn’t feel a hint of fear at all.“Hurry it up already. Stop wasting more time.”Blaine was confident, Harvey wouldn’t dare pull the trigger. At most, Harvey was just trying to scare him.After all, if Harvey did shoot him, there would be dire consequences.The John family would do anything to take revenge if they lost their successor. Harvey or Mandy wouldn’t be able to handle that.“The world doesn’t revolve around you, Young Master John,” Harvey said with a faint smile.“Just because you think one way, doesn’t mean that everyone else think the same.“You have a pretty good chance of losing your life. Don’t you realize that?”Harvey slowly pulled the trigger, but he did feel quite impressed by Blaine.‘As expected from the John family’s young master…‘He’s quite tricky to deal with.‘Compared to the others that I’ve dealt with, he’s a league above the rest, to say the least!’“I was about to say the exact same thing.”Blaine’s face was icy. “You wouldn’t be ru
Blaine was the young master of the John family!A wealthy man like him would never expose himself to danger!He wouldn’t want to die in the hands of a small fry, just for the sake of pride!He wanted to give up, but he couldn’t utter a single word.Harvey smiled.Blaine liked to crush people’s spirits…But he, Harvey, was the true master at the craft.Compared to taking out Blaine entirely, it was worth more to make the arrogant young master kneel instead.Darby could clearly see Blaine’s fierce expression.“Harvey!” he exclaimed instinctively“You better not do anything stupid!“You didn’t suffer just because you got lucky!“If not, you would’ve been gunned down by now!“Because of your recklessness, your friends, family, and even your ancestors will get involved!”Harvey chuckled.“That’s no good.“Young Master John told me already…“Tonight, I’d have to explain myself no matter what.“Who do you think he is? With his status, his words are weighed in gold!“I’ll ha
"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
