“You? Are you sure about that?”Ernie’s voice went deeper.“Don’t think that you can do whatever you please just because you’re a King of Arms! In my eyes, you have no right!”“Oh? You know that much?”Creed smiled.“Since that’s the case, you should convince Kali to not go against me. You people are nothing to me anyway!”Ernie’s face was dark, and he was about to talk back. However, Kali glared at him before signaling for him to shut up.“Do you really think that nobody from the outskirts’ branch can stand up against you?” she asked.Creed grinned. “I don’t think so. I know so!”Kali took a deep breath before making a gesture.“It’s up to you now, Isaac!”A figure slowly came out of the shadow. Everyone squinted, and saw a man in his forties. He seemed quite slim, but exuded a fierce aura.He nodded at Kali and walked to the middle of the room, then calmly stared right at Creed.“Isaac is my father’s long-time servant. After following my father for more than twenty year
Kali’s face darkened after hearing Creed’s words.Bryar glared coldly at Creed. He was one of the outskirts’ top ten talents, and also a disciple of the Carrion Palace… More importantly, he was into Kali as well.And yet, Creed had done nothing but demand her obedience.This was simply unforgivable to him!Bam!Bryar slammed his hand on the wooden table before standing up. A clear palm print was seen denting the table.“Alright!” Ernie stood, cheering in joy. The simple move was enough to show just how powerful Bryar was. Bryar wasn’t in a hurry, either. Everyone watched in excitement as he walked to the middle of the room, his arms crossed.“I am one of the outskirts’ top ten talents, Bryar Flynn. I’m also an outer disciple of the Carrion Palace. If you give up right now, I can consider keeping you alive!”“The Carrion Palace is impressive, but what’s an outer disciple going to do here?” Creed smirked. “At least I’d respect you a little if you told me you were a core discipl
Everyone looked over, their heads numb. Their hearts went cold, and their legs were on the verge of giving up.The top outer disciple of the Carrion Palace, one of the top talents of the outskirts, Bryar, was taken out.Creed’s face had slightly lost color, but his strength clearly wasn’t affected at all as he stood with his arms crossed.Bryar was filled with fear and anger for a long time, then chuckled bitterly.“If given time, you would’ve been close to a God of War after another decade of training! Impressive! I underestimated you!”“Close to a God of War? That’s not even my goal!” Creed exclaimed. “I’m here to replace the South Sea God of War! My goal is to be the only God of War left there!”Creed squinted, as if he were lecturing Bryar.“The outskirts is a land for savages; the place is completely uncivilized.“You people wouldn’t understand how vast the world actually is!“Even my master is already considered a hero in Chinatown!“Experts who are more impressive than
Kali squinted at Creed for a long time, before finally taking a deep breath.“If Uncle Henrik’s still this stubborn about my father breaking his arm back then, I’m willing to break mine as compensation.“However, only the capable can have the position of branch leader.“Uncle Henrik had already harbored ill intentions back then. He conspired with enemies of the outskirts and used Longmen’s authority to seize control over the place! This was why my father decided against his rise to power!“This has remained the same even now.“If you want to kill your way back here, then so be it! Longmen’s outskirts branch will not falter, even if there’s only one person left here!“As for our arranged marriage?”Kali’s expression was as cold as ice.“Over my dead body!”“Heh! I love stubborn women like you the most!”Creed smiled cruelly. He then raised Kali’s chin, licking his lips.“Do you think you have a chance to even die if I decide to break your limbs and lock you in a cage like a b
Creed had already shown that he was invincible.Normally speaking, anyone would kneel in front of him. And yet, someone still stood up to question him.Either that person was definitely capable of doing that, or he was simply delusional.No matter how Harvey appeared, he didn’t seem crazy at all. Creed couldn’t help but ask him the question after looking at him.Harvey glanced at Kali, completely ignoring Creed in the process.“Did you hear me, Ms. Kali? “As long as you can prove what you said was true… If you can show me that your father did that out of justice… I can send this monkey flying with a single slap.”Kali froze instantly; she couldn’t come to her senses to even give a reply.She hoped someone would be able to save the damsel in distress…But she understood clearly.Unless the monks of the three great temples come, nobody would be able to save her. She would probably drag Harvey into the situation if she decided to speak up.“Heh! Send me flying?! It’s been a wh
Under everyone’s shocked gaze, Harvey hooked his finger in front of Creed.“Is that so? I’ll let you hit me first, then.”Creed’s face darkened instantly.‘This kid crossed the line! How dare he let a King of Arms make the first move? Does he want to die?!’Creed couldn’t be bothered to talk anymore. He took a step forward, pouncing right at Harvey.His speed was fast—a lot faster than when he fought Bryar. His goal was clear: to take out Harvey in a single hit!Slap!A loud sound was heard.Without giving the crowd a chance to react, a figure flew straight into the wall.“Guh!”Blood spurted out everywhere.‘One slap? One slap was enough?!’Everyone instantly froze after seeing it. The person slapped away was none other than the high and mighty expert—Creed himself!Nobody could tell how exactly he lost. Harvey casually removed his gloves, before casually sitting down and sipping his tea again.The smooth process was no less than horrifying to the others.“He took out a
Harvey rolled his eyes; he needed to be discreet. Everyone would know about his arrival if Kali reported the incident to headquarters.“You’re too kind, Ms. Kali,” Harvey smiled.“Every person has responsibility. This is the philosophy of a martial artist. Since America’s involved with the outskirts’ trouble, I have obligation to take responsibility.“That said, things won’t end here. You should interrogate him. See if you can find out more.“However, I wouldn’t want anyone else to know that I was here.”Harvey then calmly left with his arms crossed.Ernie and Bryar were shocked.‘This is the look of a true expert! He didn’t ask for a reward, nor was he prideful about it…’Kali froze as she looked at Harvey’s back; she seemed a little sluggish.-The next day.Harvey went to university as usual. He seemed completely invisible, even though he had already come for two days. Nobody bothered to talk to him, either.Billie, Judith, Aliza, and the others weren’t there, either.H
“You’ve got guts, kid!”Teo chuckled coldly, grinning coldly. “Let me tell you something! It’s my first time seeing someone this arrogant here. Hopefully you can still do the same when your legs get snapped in half!”Harvey shook his head, and walked out of the classroom. He couldn’t be bothered to even give a reply. If it wasn’t for the fact that he needed to put up a front, he wouldn’t have been wasting his time here anyway.The other students of the class were showing odd looks when they saw Harvey being so nonchalant.Teo was a well-known bully before even attending university. It’s said that nobody dared to go against him. After entering Oaklands University, he was willing to become Lorel’s lackey after falling in love with her at first sight.Since Harvey offended Lorel, Teo wouldn’t just let this go that easily.“What’s a man from a big city showing off in the outskirts?”“He’ll know what it means to suffer when Teo deals with him!”“He doesn’t know that power means ev
"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
