“Right! Right! Why did a kid like him get the last chance because of a recommendation?!”“What? Are all of us here useless compared to him?!”“He’s probably not as good as you think he is anyway! What are we supposed to do if he does something terrible to the old lady?“Who does he think he is?! He looks like he can cure everyone he wants to!”“Ms. Paislee is a true descendant of Mount Lynx! She’s a top talent of her sect, yet she wouldn’t do anything even after calculating her plan for so long!“Why would we care about a random nobody if that were the case?!”To those people, Harvey York was just someone who appeared out of nowhere to steal the limelight.More importantly, according to Veer Hunt’s statement, this would be the last chance anyone would get to treat her mother.Everyone would be satisfied if someone like Paislee Foster were to be the one to use the chance.But someone like Harvey would never be able to satisfy the crowd.While the crowd doubted Harvey, Veer jus
That said, it was only natural for those people to be enraged.After all, most of them had already brought their sects’ secret techniques and medicine just to curry favor with the Hunt family.Many were even prepared to go bankrupt just to get an opportunity here.And yet, what happened?Some empty-handed nobody came here to rob everyone of their chance.None of them would be happy if that was the case.A few beautiful women held their whisks while disdainfully glaring at Harvey York.In their eyes, ignorant men like him were just scumbags.Veer Hunt and the butler looked at each other before agreeing.They were being courteous towards Harvey only because of the Honey Pill.They only allowed him to perform to see if he could surprise them somehow.As for whether Harvey had the Honey Pill or not, they were unsure.Paislee Foster and the others standing up against Harvey would suit Veer’s interests better.This was why he remained silent for the longest time.Many times, si
“Not only do I know what you learned and think right now, but I also know that you’re condemning the old lady to her doom if you proceed with your plan!”Harvey York stepped forward before squinting at Paislee Foster.“We don’t know what’s going on with the old lady right now, but we know one thing for sure. Elderly people have weak bodies.“Once you infuse a sliver of your technique into her body…“Even if you manage to deal with the source of her problem, her body would also be ruined!“If I were you, I’d ask for the Lycan Pill to handle the situation instead! Maybe that’ll work better than your technique!“Oh! If I guess correctly, you probably have the pill here already.“Then again, those pills are expensive. The House of Priests doesn’t have many left, and making a new batch in this day and age would be almost impossible.“That was why you decided to use your Helianthus Technique first.“You’d have a guaranteed way to reverse the process if you screw up, right?Harvey s
“If that works, the Hunt family would’ve just looked for a masseuse. What are you even doing here for?”The monk’s face darkened instantly. He had no way to refute Harvey’s words. He desperately wanted to speak up but simply could not get himself to do so.Then, Harvey pointed at an elderly man wearing a goatee with a sage-like aura.“Don’t think I can’t tell you’re from the School of Humanitas just because you’re not wearing a robe.“You must have the Talisman of Tranquil up your sleeve.“It’s pretty effective against nightmares and people affected with aphasia.“But I guarantee you that it won’t be helpful this time.“Not only are your teachings completely useless, but the cinnabar you used to draw the talisman was also bought online.“You’re hoping it will work when you’re using fake ingredients? What a joke.The man pointed at Harvey when he constantly stuttered, unable to string proper words.“And you…”Harvey pointed at a man who seemed like he was from Seed Frontier.
The simple words were enough to freeze Veer Hunt and the others before showing anger in their eyes.‘You’re just tricking us all at this point!’‘Who doesn’t know that the Honey Pill can save the old lady?!’‘What’s the point of reiterating what we already know?!’Paislee Foster’s eyes lit up. Nobody knew what she was thinking then.“Then again…Harvey continued before anyone else could voice their doubts.“I’m pretty confident that I can save the old lady.“Though, I need time to prepare.”Paislee could no longer hold back her feelings. She naturally needed to reclaim her dignity after being constantly disrespected.“Just say that you can’t do anything already!“What do you mean you need to prepare?!“Do you think the old lady’s life is a joke?!”Paislee glared coldly.“Since you’re acting like you actually know what you’re doing, then you should tell us what you’re planning!”Harvey glared at Paislee before writing a formula on a piece of paper.Then, he glanced at Ve
The butler quickly wrote a few numbers on the check before disdainfully setting it in front of Harvey York.Harvey had no intention of taking it.Paislee Foster’s impression of Harvey worsened.“It’s already a lot of money after you failed to fool anyone here!“If it weren’t for the Hunt family’s successful business, you wouldn’t even get the money in the first place!“Now leave!“Do you want to get thrown out after they break your legs?!”Harvey glanced at Veer, whose expression remained unchanged.“Since you’re still being courteous with me, and the fact that Ethan and I are brothers…“I’ll tell you one more thing.“The old lady’s infected with Corpse Poison!“The Honey Pill would deal with the old lady’s problem in its entirety….“But the Lycan Pill is used to invigorate life.“She might come back, but her condition would worsen under three days.“If you’re not careful, she might just die because of this too.”Harvey shook his head before turning around, prepared to l
“You’re being rude, Sir York.”Veer Hunt’s face slightly darkened despite his good temper.He angrily squinted at Harvey York when he heard someone cursing his mother.‘The priests finally decided to give their pill, and yet he’s still running his mouth here?‘If it weren’t for the fact that Ethan’s a subordinate to the Head Coach…‘I would’ve gotten people to break every single one of his limbs by now.”Harvey shook his head.“I’m telling the truth. If you do let the old lady have the Lycan Pill, she will be awake soon after.“She’d be able to eat and drink like the average person.“But seventy-two hours later, she’d be unconscious again.“When that happens, she might be able to survive as long as you release the blood in her heart.“But if you miss that timing, even God won’t be able to save her after that.”Harvey calmly shook his head.He wanted to save the old lady, but what was the point if nobody believed that?At this point, only Ethan Hunt could make this happen.
Harvey York heaved a sigh after hearing the news. It seemed like his efforts were futile after all. He was only being painted as the villain, as usual.“She won’t die immediately.Harvey briefly thought about the situation.“I know you have people in the family.“Tell them to draw some blood when the old lady falls unconscious within half an hour. She might survive for the next twenty-four hours after that.“I’ll have time to save her after that.“That said, she’d be wheelchair-bound the rest of her life.”“And what if her blood isn’t released in half an hour?” asked Ethan Hunt tremblingly.Harvey sighed.“Then, that’ll be it for her.”Ethan went dead silent.Harvey knew what he wanted to say.“I know that you have a different identity now. Then again, you have an awkward position in your family since you’re still just a bastard to them.“I understand your concerns, but it’d be better to teach them a lesson, if anything.“I’m confident your old lady will return to normal,
"While Country H is said to have existed for so many years, the people can be quite narrow-minded. They'll act all arrogant because they have a bit of talent. Not only that, but they also refuse to accept the rest of the civilized world. There's no need to get angry with these people," Juliana said to Hawk's men, her tone filled with concern."All of them say they love their country, but the truth is that they'll leave for greener pastures as soon as opportunities present themselves. Despite agreeing with your values, I'm still part of this country. I wish I could really be part of you!" Juliana said, envy and disappointment on her face.Hawk and the others smiled when they saw Juliana's attitude. If most of the people from Country H acted like this, their cultural victory would be assured. At this point, all of them smiled widely and abandoned whatever upset feelings they had from just now.-About ten minutes later, Harvey took Alexei back to the Dragon Gate Training Hall. Va
When Juliana and the others saw Harvey and Alexei leave, all of them could only grit their teeth in anger despite being genuinely surprised. They didn't expect Harvey's call to be enough to remove Hawk's status as a Knight Templar with one call. His quick action had humiliated Hawk and his men.Normally speaking, they would never believe that Harvey would be able to do such a thing. They didn't expect that reality could be so cruel to the point that it was choking them. Harvey was so influential that they found themselves struggling to breathe."Calm down, Hawk. Don't feel down. I don't think that what happened is real," Juliana said as she subconsciously consoled Hawk. "His reputation is built on boasts. He doesn't understand just how powerful your culture is! There's no way he can affect the powerful Knights Templar."I suspect he's working with someone else and got a fake number, so that he could intimidate and trick you! In other words, you can't let this confuse you! Even i
Harvey narrowed his eyes and said calmly to Hawk, "If you're really that powerful, you won't be wearing that expression when you see me."The so-called top from their side would not only treat him with respect, but they would also get the hell out of there as fast as possible.However, Hawk didn't understand what Harvey was trying to convey. He smiled coldly and said, "You don't understand what the Knight Templars mean, do you? Before this name, even dragons and beasts must fall! And when it comes to someone like you… The moment I showed you my identity, you won't even have the privilege to bend your knee!"Harvey refuted calmly, "If you're really that influential, won't it humiliate you completely if I can make you bend your knee with one call?"Hawk's expression turned brutal. "Oh? You're going to make a move? Come on, then! Show me just how good you really are!"Harvey nodded and pulled out his phone as he looked at Hawk. "Since you asked for it, I guess I have no choice but
Harvey scoffed. He couldn't be bothered by wasting his breath speaking to someone like Juliana, who obviously had been hit on the head. Instead, he turned to Alexei. "I'm leaving now. You either leave with me, or you can stay here and be a simp. But remember—if you stay as her simp, don't appear in front of me again. A man who has no pride and a backbone doesn't have the right to stand in front of me."Hearing that, there was a hint of hesitation on Alexei's face.When Juliana saw that Harvey didn't agree to her demand and even changed the subject, she smiled coldly. "If you have a death wish, then I'll grant it to you. I won't pull my punches from here on out. And you, Alexei. You can try and leave with him… As long as you can bear the consequences of that!"Alexei's expression was filled with even more hesitation. In the end, he gritted his teeth and left together with Harvey.Juliana's smile turned icy when she saw what had happened. "Good, Alexei! You'll regret this! From n
"I'm sorry! It's all my fault! My entire fault! I shouldn't have forced you!" Alexei said, lowering his head dejectedly. Seeing this, Juliana walked over and extended her hand, raising Alexei's chin. She said coldly, "It's good that you know you're making a mistake. Now, Hawk and I will need to get some rest at the hotel. We'll also be going to a charity ball later. Since we're very busy, we don't have the time to pay for our meal. Remember to pay for it and our presidential suite as well. Understand?"While Juliana looked down at Alexei, she didn't mind making Alexei pay for everything. From her perspective, it was a matter of course.When Alexei heard it, he still nodded despite the dark expression on his face.He wanted to take his wallet out, but Harvey quickly stopped Alexei and took his wallet instead. "If you have the money for a woman, why don't you come with me and eat something at the nearby stall? Don't waste your life and time on a woman like this."Harvey dragged A
After Alexei heard what Harvey had to say, his expression was filled with hesitation. It was obvious that he did have feelings for Juliana. However, there was also fear. He didn't know what he should do.He was afraid that Juliana might really abandon him. At the same time, he was really afraid that Juliana was cheating. Alexei felt like he was stuck between a rock and a hard place."Alexei? Why are you here?" At this time, a cold and arrogant voice could be heard. "Are you here to ambush me? So that you can annoy me?"Harvey instinctively turned around and saw Juliana and Hawk walking out from the restaurant hand-in-hand like a wealthy couple. Behind them were their secretaries, lawyers, and bodyguards. They looked like important people; on the other hand, Alexei looked like a beggar by the street.Alexei quickly ran over, forcing himself to smile despite being upset. "I heard you're back, Juliana, so I came over to pick you up. You must be tired now. I've arranged for a pre
"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
