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,
That said, Harvey York did not pay much attention to the Hunt family’s affairs.Ethan Hunt had not made his comeback, not because he was afraid of the Hunt family. He already had an immense identity and status at this point.Of course, if the family were to cause Harvey trouble…He would not mind teaching them a lesson either.-After a long road of silence, the car reached a private nursing home.Harvey frowned. He did not understand why Mandy Zimmer was here in the first place.After pondering the situation momentarily, he decided to make the call.Mandy rejected the call, but she quickly sent a room number.Harvey asked the front desk for the number before reaching the front of the villa.Lights were brimming throughout the place. Some guards were also posted at the entrance.Mandy’s secretary, Maya Lee, had been waiting for a while. She made a welcoming gesture to invite Harvey inside after his arrival.Harvey saw that the elegantly renovated hall had signs of destructi
Mandy Zimmer and Lilian Yates looked over simultaneously.Mandy lightly nodded. She knew Harvey York was coming.Lilian felt instantly sluggish before she screamed at Harvey.“You little bastard! How dare you come back here?! You…”“Don’t you want the Honey Pill?” replied Harvey calmly.Lilian was instantly stunned after hearing Harvey’s words.“Stop pretending, Harvey!“Mandy told me the Hunt family saved the old lady!“What’s the point of the Honey Pill now?!“It can’t even give me the money and the villa anymore!”“The money’s just a tiny problem. The villa can also be bought with money!“Let me tell you something! The old lady’s awake right now…“But she’ll fall unconscious after three days!“When that happens, the Honey Pill’s value would skyrocket!“Maybe then, it’d be 1.5 billion with ten whole villas for you to have.”Lilian showed an odd gaze after hearing Harvey’s words. She wanted to lash out but had no choice but to force a smile.“Harvey—no! My dear son-in-
“Huh?”Lilian Yates froze.“You’re joking, right? Are you angry?“I can’t take jokes like this, you know? I’m an old lady!”Harvey York chuckled in secret after seeing Lilian forcing her feelings back.“The old lady might not need the Honey Pill either.“It doesn’t matter to me either way.“That said…”Before Harvey was done speaking, Mandy Zimmer’s phone suddenly vibrated while she was having her coffee.She handed Harvey a cup of coffee while she was getting the call.“What?” she said with a horrible expression.“My pre-sale license got rejected again?“Didn’t we hand over all the documents according to procedure?“What? We don’t have enough money in the account?“Right, I’ll head there immediately.”“I need to go back to the office, Harvey,” she said while completely ignoring Lilian.Harvey glanced at Lilian, who seemed a little sluggish.“I’ll come with; maybe I can help with something.”Mandy glared fiercely at Lilian before dragging Harvey to the company car wit
At two o’clock in the afternoon, Mandy Zimmer’s car arrived at an office building in the suburbs.The driver frantically drove the car to a corner before parking it there.As soon as Mandy was about to question him, he quickly made a gesture.Everyone inside instinctively looked through the window before seeing a huge crowd gathering in front of the building.Those people were raising flags and banners while screaming their lungs out.“You heinous people! Give us back our hard-earned money!”“Give it back! Give it back!”“We want guaranteed delivery of housing! We’ll protect our own interests!”Mandy and the others were showing horrible expressions.Harvey York also frowned.“You didn’t get the license yet, right?“What’s going on here?”Mandy sighed. She was speechless.Maya Lee hesitated for a while.“Sir York, several properties were already sold before the ninth branch took control.“Of course, it’s most likely because of some scumbag in the family who sold them all
"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
