Romina Klein gritted her teeth for a long while.“I don’t know the full detail…“But you should know who did all this to you.“The Klein family owed this person a huge favor.“He wanted us to fabricate a lie so that you’d stay locked up forever.“He was also the one who provided us with the evidence.“From a certain perspective, we were just doing as told.“He convinced us to do it mainly because we’re the wealthiest family in the outskirts. The police wouldn’t doubt us because of this.“That’s why our evidence is irrefutable.”“Who were the people who carried this out in the family?”“Asher Klein, a direct family descendant,” replied Romina quietly.“Good.”Harvey stood before patting Romina’s face.“Bring your men and come with me.“We’ll ask Asher about this too.“If both confessions are the same, you’ll be safe.“But if I find out that you even made a single lie about this, you’re dead.“Are you coming or not?”Harvey smiled while looking at Romina.She did not h
The next day.In a courtyard halfway up Scuva Mountains.This place was provided by Aenar Temple for people to practice an ascetic life.The place was called Mandrake Residence.Asher Klein sat near the edge of a cliff while looking out the window. He could not help but feel energized when seeing the billowing clouds.Beside him, a beautiful woman was making some tea.“Why would you come this early, Mr. Asher?“Don’t you despise this place the most?”The woman was from the Island Nations. She was an exchange student of Oaklands University and the university’s vice president, Nanako Kawashima.Asher briefly pondered about the situation before he frowned.“You don’t have to follow me here, you know.”Nanako smiled.“I think it’s only natural that I do after seeing you have something on your mind.“Besides, you should know that my uncle, the Kawashima monk who doesn’t teach, is currently exchanging interacting with the Aenar Temple.“I’m planning to introduce him to you soon
Knock knock knock!As Asher Klein was pondering if he should pounce on Nanako Kawashima, someone suddenly knocked on the door.“Come in.”Asher held himself back before quickly composing himself.A steward of the Klein family quickly came inside before whispering into his ear.“What?!“Eve Clubhouse was burned down?!“And Romina’s nowhere to be found?!”Asher quickly lost all color on his face.Romina Klein was in charge of the Klein family’s underground businesses.Not only did she have a huge amount of evidence of the family’s crimes, but she also had a group of powerful and loyal sacrificial soldiers.More importantly, she was the one who knew what happened to Harvey York from start to finish.One of the biggest reasons that Asher went into hiding was Harvey.Since one of the crucial people involved with him disappeared, this was no less than terrifying.“Did the family say anything about this?”The steward quickly changed his expression.“The eldest young master sen
Asher Klein froze.“What do you mean by that?”“As long as you marry me, the Kawashima family will use everything we have on the outskirts, the entire country, just for you to rise to power.“We have the money and the manpower.“The Klein family wouldn’t be able to oppose you as long as we have your back.“And when you rise to power, it’s only a matter of time before you destroy the Wolven Tribe, the three great tribes, and be included in one of the three great temples.”With Nanako’s words, Asher still had a bright future ahead of him.“And what do I have to pay for that?“This is a lot of help from the family…“What’s the price for that?”Nanako merely smiled.“There is none.“Not just that, we’ll even ask the Emperor to include you as one of the newest members of the royal family. Not only will you have your own land in the Island Nations in the future, but our child will also get the glory of inheriting the honor!”Asher’s eyes lit up. In reality, Nanako proposed that
“The Aenar Temple’s background, Aryan’s power, and Stefan’s connections…“Everything tells the world that this is a sacred place that cannot be desecrated!“The person I went up against is named Harvey York.“Even if he does find out that I’m the main perpetrator, he wouldn’t dare chase me all the way here!“As long as I don’t leave this place, I will never lose!“That bastard even provoked Stefan, of all people!“Even without that, Aryan wouldn’t let anyone touch me for the sake of the Aenar Temple!”Asher showed a confident look as if he had already won.He quietly swallowed a blue pill with some tea before showing a faint smile.“If he can’t even keep an important guest like me alive…“How is Aenar Temple supposed to survive in the future?”Nanako Kawashima smiled after hearing those words.“You really are competent, Asher!“Your intelligence knows no bounds!“I believe with the Kawashima family’s support…“The outskirts will definitely become one of the Island Nation
Billie Higgs hung up the call before seeming a little down.Whitley Cobb leaned on the chair in a dress. It was an alluring sight.Her long legs, covered by a pair of stockings, were quite seductive under the dim lights.Billie frowned while looking at her mother’s beautiful face.“Why did you ask me to call him in the first place, Mom?”Whitley swirled her glass of wine around.“There’s something you must know! I just got word…“Your fiance’s in great trouble!“Eve Clubhouse is burned to the ground and Romina’s nowhere to be found!“The Klein family announced that Asher has nothing to do with them!“Don’t you know what this means?”Billie was stunned.“What?”“Harvey might just be from the legendary York family!“Only people from that family would be this powerful!“Not only did he raze the Klein family’s clubhouse to the ground, he even made them cast away one of their powerful figures!”Billie frowned.“If that were the case, shouldn’t we distance ourselves from Ash
Whitley Cobb showed an arrogant look.She misjudged Harvey York’s character before…However, the Higgs family did him a huge favor. The arranged marriage between him and Billie Higgs was also legit.Since that was the case, so what if she fought for the opportunity?Was he just going to cling to Harlan Higgs for the rest of his life?In Whitley’s eyes, if Harvey was really the young master of the York family making a comeback…She would even give her own body to him, let alone her daughter!After all, the family needed to share the responsibility!“Even the Wolven Tribe and the four great tribes look up to the ancient family!“The three great temples also have no choice but to pay their respects!“Oh, Billie! As long as we can confirm Harvey’s identity…“We’ll become top-rated figures of the outskirts in the near future!”Whitley put all of her grievances of marrying the wrong person into Billie at this very moment.She believed this was the only way to fulfill her dreams.
The security guard ahead quickly changed his expression.“I don’t know who you’re looking for!“But we will never sell out…”Crack!Romina Klein stepped forward before instantly breaking the security guard’s leg.The security guard was trembling in pain when he finally spoke.“They’re in the main hall!“They’re all praying in the main hall…”Then, Romina glanced at Harvey York.“The Mandrake Residence’s main hall is a shrine. I’m afraid…”Harvey calmly walked forward with his arms crossed.He did not care if he was facing against God.Let alone causing trouble in a mere shrine…-Inside the main hall.A faint scent wafted throughout the hazy place, immediately invigorating the people inside.Every corner was decorated with items that were bright yellow.Hundreds of futons were placed inside the shrine.Then again, nobody was praying just yet. The ceremony had yet to start.Those people were formed into smaller groups, happily chatting with each other. No matter the p
"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
