Chapter 5007

Author: A Potato-Loving Wolf
“You little bitch! How dare you slander Elder Reuben’s name?!

“Do you want to die or something?!”

Elodie Jean was screaming in righteous fury.

Reuben Jean, who had been watching the show, showed a gloomy expression.

“Slap her!”

Slap!

With Reuben’s support, Elodie was as confident as she could get.

She stepped forward before swinging the back of her palm across Xynthia Zimmer’s face. Xynthia stumbled back, almost falling to the ground.

“How dare you, Elodie?!” she exclaimed.

Elodie coldly chuckled.

“Am I not supposed to?”

Elodie swung the back of her palm forward once again.

Xynthia instinctively blocked with her hand…

But at this very moment, Reuben suddenly stepped forward before slapping Xynthia.

A loud, crisp sound was heard.

Xynthia covered her face while stumbling a few steps back before showing utter disbelief.

“Elder Reuben, you…”

In her mind, a man like Reuben would not do something as he pleased.

And yet, it did happen.

Xynthia looked stubbornly as if she wa

    Lilian Yates’ eyes twitched. If Mandy Zimmer were to be taken out and robbed of her position, she would end up horribly.“This was our fault, Elder Reuben!” exclaimed Lilian with a pampering look.“We’ll do whatever you say!“We won’t complain! We won’t hold a grudge either!“Come! You should slap me first to console yourself!”“You must be tired after coming all the way here! You should have some rest! I’ll arrange a meal for you immediately!” added Simon Zimmer.“You’ll definitely be satisfied!”Simon did not mention anything about his daughters kneeling.Xynthia was a little dissatisfied but kept her mouth shut after Lilian fiercely glared at her.Reuben Jean shifted his gaze towards Harvey York’s casual expression with a hint of gloom.“Aren’t you the live-in son-in-law?“What’s the matter with you? Why are you just standing there?“You take everything from the family, yet you wouldn’t even kneel to greet Elder Reuben?!”Elodie Jean saved no breath to ridicule Harvey a

    “You little bastard!“How dare you speak to me this way?!”Reuben Jean was utterly enraged.“What is wrong with your family, Simon?!“As the head family of the ninth branch, you couldn’t even teach a damn live-in son-in-law properly!“You disappoint me!“At this point, I should probably hold a meeting with the Elder Group. Maybe we need a different branch head instead!“Letting ignorant and disrespectful people in positions of power wouldn’t benefit us anyway!”Elodie Jean and Aunt Witby’s eyes lit up.“That’s right! It’s about time we have a different branch head!” the two exclaimed.“Someone might just take advantage of others with all that arrogance!”Lilian Yates’ eyes twitched before glaring at Harvey York.“Elder Reuben is a prominent figure, Harvey! If you’re going to challenge him like that, at least leave Mandy out of this!”“Don’t worry. He’s just an arrogant and unreasonable man with some skill,” replied Harvey.“People like that can’t go against Mandy, let alo

    Lilian Yates’ eyes twitched after hearing Harvey York’s words.Harvey emphasized that he was already divorced from Mandy Zimmer and was not a part of the Zimmer family anymore…But Reuben Jean would not see it that way!“Shut up already, Harvey!” Lilian exclaimed.“I’ll rip your mouth if you keep yapping!”“Heh heh heh heh! It looks like many people have forgotten how I do things after being secluded for so long…“I didn’t expect someone would dare disrespect me in front of my face…”Reuben squinted while smiling faintly at Harvey. He was not angry at all then.“I do hope that you’re at least a little capable, kid!“If not, I must teach you to respect your elders!”Reuben casually waved his hand.Two towering bodyguards stepped in front, prepared to take action against Harvey.Slap slap!Harvey immediately slapped the bodyguards down.Then, he came in front of Reuben before tapping on his face.“What are you doing, you little bastard?!” Reuben exclaimed. He was unable to

    Reuben Jean stepped up before chuckling coldly at Mandy Zimmer.“Harvey York doesn’t know this, but I came with the Elder Group’s special privilege!“I’m invoking that privilege now!“I think you’re no longer suited to be the head of the ninth branch!“From now on, you must remove yourself from the position and let Elodie Jean take over!“You must cooperate with the asset transfer as well!“If not, you’ll have to suffer the consequences!”Lilian Yates shuddered after hearing Reuben’s words.“Harvey was the one who provoked you, Elder Reuben! That has nothing to do with us!“We don’t mind you doing whatever you want to him!“Don’t take your anger out on us!“More importantly, Mandy’s being supported by all the higher-ups!“You can’t just remove her unannounced!”Lilian knew that Reuben probably came to support Elodie’s rise to power.He was just making excuses for his actions.That said, Lilian had to fight back since she did not want her money tree to fall.Simon Zimmer

    Lilian Yates froze after seeing the sight. She wanted to scold Mandy Zimmer but knew there was no way to alleviate the situation.After all, she was simply powerless.Reuben Jean was using the authority granted to him once every year!Elodie Jean’s rise was as good as done at this point.Mandy sighed before leaving without saying a word.Xynthia Zimmer wanted to say something but quickly followed Mandy while she kept silent.Lilian and Simon Zimmer hesitated momentarily before bowing in front of Reuben and left.That said, their expressions were as horrible as could be.After getting inside the car, Lilian could no longer hold her feelings.“That bastard! It’s all Harvey York’s fault!“You already divorced him, yet he’s still here causing trouble!“If only he indulged Elder Reuben a bit more, none of this would’ve happened!“Mandy will still be the head of the ninth branch!“It’s all because of him!“He’s still trying to be the family’s live-in son-in-law?! Bastard!“Thi

    Harvey York froze.“Reuben Jean ousted Mandy Zimmer from her position?“Is he not afraid to make a mess of the entire situation?”Amora Foster quickly explained everything she knew.“Last night, Reuben used his special privilege, available once every year, for Elodie Jean to take charge instead of Mandy.“Today, he used his connections to try and keep the hundred-and-fifty-million dollar contract going.“Simply put, he’s doing everything he can to keep Elodie in charge.”“Did you agree to it then?” Harvey asked.Amora smiled.“Of course not.“Then again, Reuben was a once prominent figure with many connections. He managed to get a few of the elders from the Foster family to talk to me about this.“After telling them that you specifically requested this, they kept their mouth shut soon after!“But even though we already declined Reuben, he’d still find other ways to compensate for the losses caused by Elodie’s rise.”“It’s not that simple now, is it?“Mandy and I signed th

    “But no matter the case, the branch made a big accomplishment by shutting down the casino and apprehending the suspects.“From a righteous perspective, not only did the director do nothing wrong, he’d probably be rewarded for this.“No matter how unhappy Soren Braff was, he had no choice but to endure.“He even awarded the director a medal himself to calm the branch’s police force.”Harvey York frowned for a moment before chuckling.“That’s not good.“Blaine John and Darby Xavier will think we’re trying to crush their spirits!“Not only do they already hate me, the Braff family would probably get involved as well.”Amora Foster lightly nodded.“You should take care of yourself, Sir York.“The Braff family belongs to the government. Even though the situation affects both the John family and the Xavier family’s interests, they didn’t do anything wrong from the side of justice.“You’re different.“You’re completely alone. It’d be easier for them to go against you…”Harvey lig

    Kairi Patel lightly chuckled.“You’re falling a little behind, Sir York.“First off, an elder like Reuben Jean can never order a branch director like that around. After all, he knew full well just how he’d end up doing something like this.“The John family, the Xavier family, and the Braff family are involved. There’s no way that he’d be able to survive after this.“Then again, he still did this despite everything. This means that he’s extremely confident. He isn’t intimidated at all.“I also discovered that he has ten million dollars in his private account in Switzerland…”Harvey sighed.“That’s quite a lot of money…“A branch director wouldn’t be able to earn that amount his entire life.“Did you find out who gave that to him?”“Not yet, but I don’t have to anyway,” replied Kairi.“I have other information that might be of use to you…“The day before yesterday, the head of the Jean family came to Golden Sands. Mandy Zimmer met him, pleading for him to resolve the conflict

    "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.

    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.

    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
