Harvey and Kairi looked at each other after hearing Ayaka’s words. Harvey was completely speechless.“Are you that stupid?“You want Country H out of the World Civilization Department? You want the counties to sanction us as well?“Are you still dreaming?“Let’s not even decide if the matter’s even worth escalating to that point.“Even if it was…“Did you forget something? Country H also has the right to vote.“You want to kick the country out? Are you insane?“As for Nobuyuki, you people know exactly what happened too.“If you’re going to escalate things, then be my guest. Hopefully, you’ll be able to deal with the consequences after this!”Harvey couldn’t be bothered to talk to Ayaka anymore. He signaled Elias to take the Islanders’ phones and delete everything inside before throwing them out.-When everyone was out of the hospital, Kairi looked at Harvey. “Are we really going to let them go like this?”“They clearly came prepared,” Harvey replied. “If we detained or hu
Sounds of a keyboard clacking could be heard on Kairi’s side. She shook her head.“No. Nothing at all. It’s as if everything Ayaka said yesterday was fake.“Also, there was another news.”Harvey narrowed his eyes. “What is it?”“One of the members of the Five Royal Families, Ibuki Masato, the young master of the Tsuchimikado family, has arrived in Golden Sands. If my guess is correct, Ayaka must’ve stopped her arrangements for the time being because of him.”Harvey frowned. “Ibuki Masato?”“That’s right. He came with another identity as well—the envoy of the Island Nations Embassy. He could represent the emperor of the Island Nations while in Country H.”Harvey’s eyes lit up, and he smiled. “Looks like someone’s desperately trying to put Golden Sands in more trouble…”-At this moment, the Golden Sands International Airport was filled with people. It was barely morning, but a lot of tourists were flooding the gateways.Compared to the ordinary gateways, the ones designated fo
Ibuki’s arrival and Nobuyuki’s corpse snatched away…The two instances seemed irrelevant, but Harvey knew that wasn’t the case at all. From his understanding of the Islanders, he knew the enemy wouldn’t let everything go without a fight.However, he had no intention of causing trouble since Ibuki hadn’t done anything out of line yet.Harvey thought about the situation for a moment before giving Watson—whom he hadn’t been in contact with for a while—a call.Ibuki’s official identity was essentially his safety umbrella in Golden Sands. Thus, Harvey was sure there were things to discuss with an experienced government official like Watson.After Quill’s burial, Harvey didn’t talk to Watson often.Watson immediately accepted Harvey’s invitation as soon as he got the call. The two decided to meet up at the Syca Clubhouse on the outskirts of the city.At four o’clock in the evening, Harvey arrived at the designated venue. He could feel a few judgmental gazes, but then they all disappea
“I see him on the news all the time! How can I not know him? He doesn’t know me, though,” Harvey said.Watson burst out laughing.“You sure are good at scaring people with just words. If I’m in a bad state, my heart would’ve jumped out of my throat by now!”Harvey chuckled.“I’m just kidding with you.“Still, you should just see what happens next. Country H has been at peace since he was put to power. Some powerful people in the past were also suppressed by him.“Safe to say, the country only started flourishing because of him.“At the same time, Big Boss has empathy. He knows that unity of knowledge and practice will carry him through.“People like that are almost no different compared to a saint. Surely he wouldn’t have ulterior motives. You don’t need to be too worried.”Watson trembled, then smiled. “Spectators always have a clearer view of the game, after all… I didn’t think you’d see the picture so clearly, when I’m the one working for the government for so long.“I’v
Bam!Harvey’s expression changed after hearing Watson’s words. Just then, a loud bang was heard.The front door of the place was knocked down.A beautiful figure with a faint fragrance stumbled inside. Her entire body was flushed and covered in sweat; she desperately tried to get back up, but she couldn’t muster the strength to do so. At the same time, her bra and stockings were ripped apart, as if she had been forced to undress.Harvey instinctively looked over, and his expression worsened.‘Arlet? Why is she here?’“Move! Stop disturbing Young Master Yamato’s fun! Anyone who does… I’ll make sure that they die a horrible death!”An arrogant tone could be heard outside.Harvey quickly rushed forward and lifted Arlet. “Why are you here? What happened?”He put his fingers on Arlet’s wrist to check her pulse. He deduced that Arlet was drugged; the effects were strong, and it was just about to go off.He didn’t even have time to figure out how she could get drugged despite her
Watson stumbled backward, unable to react to Ayaka’s slap.After all, not a lot of people would dare raise their voices at him because of his high status, let alone hit him. His guards weren’t there to protect him, either.“What? Can’t you hear what I’m saying?!” Ayaka yelled. She decided to lash out after holding in her anger for two whole days; she instantly slapped Watson across the face again.“Leave! You people are nothing but trash! I feel like puking as soon as I see you people around! Now, scram!”Yamato wasn’t interested in Ayaka slapping Watson around. Instead, his eyes lit up when he saw Arlet beside Harvey. He had seen a lot of women back in the Island Nations, but his urge to conquer a stubborn woman from Country H like Arlet was immediately ignited.He could feel his breathing getting heavier after taking his blue pills.“Hurry up already,” he said with an annoyed look.Ayaka kicked Watson to the ground after hearing those words. “You hear that? Get out of here a
“You bastard! You…”Ayaka wiped everything off her face. She stumbled off the ground; she was about to give the order to kill Harvey right there and then when she saw his face.She instinctively shivered.It was clear she still remembered the humiliation she suffered back in the hospital. Her pretty face had a red palm print because of him, after all.‘He burned my face with hot tea?! He deserves to die!’Harvey glanced calmly at Ayaka.“What? Was yesterday not enough for you as a lesson? Are you still trying to take advantage of people? Do you think you can actually do whatever you want because you have some cheap paperwork?”“You bastard!”Ayaka took a deep breath.“Get the cops here right now! Call Golden Sands Police Station!“Say that someone’s been hurting us mighty Islanders! I’d like to see how they’ll justify this to us!”Ayaka believed she could crush Harvey with ease because of her and Yamato’s identities. She thought she could throw Harvey behind bars this way, t
“Do you want to see something more impressive?” Harvey asked.Yamato chuckled coldly, then stepped forward.“I do, actually,” he replied darkly as he leaned in towards Harvey.“What? Are you going to slap me?“Even if I let you, would you even dare? You’re just a man from Country H.“You’re not stupid. You should know the consequences for doing such a thing!”Yamato’s words were filled with ridicule. He wanted everyone to know that he was blatantly insulting Harvey for saying all this.Everyone believed Harvey wouldn’t do anything to Yamato, anyway.Slap!Harvey suddenly took a step forward, and slapped Yamato to the ground. He then wiped his fingers with some tissues before looking at Yamato.“Only people like you would ask for something this heinous. Are you happy now that your wish is fulfilled?”“What?!”Everyone was baffled to see everything Harvey did and said.Ayaka and the other Islanders couldn’t even come to their senses.After all, Yamato was the second young m
"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
