“He’s here!”Felix suddenly exclaimed, grinning all over.Harvey was walking past the entrance of the private club with his hands folded behind his back. He was calm and indifferent.A powerful, indescribable surrounded him as he strode over.The sensation was momentary, but it still puzzled the executives present.“Felix…is this the loser you were talking about?”One of them, who was a little uncertain, asked hesitantly.He found this man somewhat familiar, but he couldn’t remember where he had seen such a person.In truth, back then they were all nobodies. They never had the chance to meet Harvey in person.However, they might have seen Harvey’s figure from a distance during some occasions. So, they had a small impression of him.Nonetheless, it was just a tiny amount.Felix grinned. “Yes, it’s him! Do as you please.” He then stepped forward to greet Harvey. “Harvey! Come, let me introduce you to everyone.”“This is Harvey York, the live-in son-in-law of the Zimmer fami
The executives regained their bearings when they heard Felix’s words.All of them burst into laughter, clutching their stomachs. They had never met anyone who could brag to such an extent before.Rosanne Barr was the first to crack a smile. “Do you know who Prince York is? He’s the number one person in South Light right now!”“Even the first-in-command in South Light must be respectful in front of him!”“How could a man like him become a live-in son-in-law?!”“How could he appear here, of all places?!”“Can you please stop being so funny?”Brody Jenner also taunted Harvey. “During our time in the hundred-billion group, we have already been working under York Enterprise. Later when the Famous Four of the Yorks took over, we were also in high positions. So now, Prince York has to take us seriously too!”“Do you think that knowledgeable and experienced people like us would be fooled by you?”“Nowadays, even trash dares to pretend to be a CEO?”“Our Prince York is too low-key. He
Felix Howard reached out his hand and patted Harvey on the shoulders. Smirking, he said, “Trash, do you understand now?”“Not only you, but Mandy Zimmer and the entire Zimmer family’s lives are in our hands!”“That’s right, Harvey. You must listen to us. You have to do whatever we want you to!”“If you don’t, then from this second onward, there’s no place for you and Mandy in Buckwood!”Brody Jenner guffawed arrogantly.They hadn’t encountered such a fun toy in a long time.Others would either let them continue being bullies, or kneel and beg for mercy.Too few would choose to resist like Harvey. It excited them tremendously. “So, does this mean that you’re threatening me?”Right now, Harvey wanted to laugh.Originally, he never paid any attention to these nobodies.He didn’t want to care, even if they were turncoats. Such people were everywhere.However, the main problem was that these people actually threatened him tonight.Harvey felt a little helpless.He had seen ma
Seeing how Harvey was behaving, Brody yelled again, “Trash, didn’t you hear me?”“Or are you a moron who can’t understand people?”“Manager Jenner, forget it. Letting him lick the soles of your shoes isn’t exciting enough. I think it’s better to let him kneel and bark like a dog!”Rosanne cut in, grinning. sThe words coming from her beautiful mouth were vicious.“Harvey, I’ll do Manager Howard a favor. As long as you kneel and bark like a dog, I promise you that I’ll never give Mandy and the entire Zimmer family a hard time in the future. How about it?”Everyone’s eyes lit up at Rosanne’s words. This was much more fun than letting Harvey lick the soles of their shoes.At the moment, everyone took out their phones, wanting to record the video.“Hurry up! Hurry up and go down on your knees!”“Since you’re a lower-class person, it’s normal for you to bark in front of us like a dog!”“Many wanted to be our lackeys, but we didn’t care for them!”“Harvey, you should be honored!”
Everyone was delighted. They looked at Felix with admiration.Manager Howard really knows how to play. His future was limitless!Soon, they walked out with their hands slung over each other’s shoulders.Only Felix was left in the room. He stared at Harvey condescendingly, his eyes full of arrogance.Harvey surveyed the scene of him. He then raised his head and glanced at Felix, his expression unchanging.“Bringing a group of people to insult me, is this your purpose tonight?”Felix lit a cigarette and replied with a smile, “Of course not, what’s the use of insulting you?”“I just want to tell you that you’re trash through tangible actions. You’re not worthy of Mandy at all.”“Not only your existence is useless to her, but it might also kill her.”“So, Harvey, I’m giving you another chance.”“Divorce Mandy Zimmer tomorrow. Leave Buckwood and start a new life in a place where no one knows you.”As he talked, Felix took out a bank card and threw it at Harvey’s face.“There’s o
“Chief instructor! Damn these wretched people!”The man who arrived was Ray Hart, and this private club was also his. Thus, he knew about the whole incident. The only thing was, he didn’t dare going in without Harvey’s order.“No. Go to Buckwood tonight and find Yvonne. I’ll send a message to her about some personnel adjustments in the company. You will assist her in that matter.”Harvey replied indifferently.He initially did not plan to deal with matters like this so soon. Instead, he wanted to wait until all of the company assets were properly integrated before proceeding.However, what happened tonight made him quicken his pace.“Yes!”Ray did not dare to disobey Harvey’s order. Harvey was famous for his tough-minded professionalism. All he could do was to carry out Harvey’s order in full force.***While Harvey was being humiliated…In Buckwood, in the Zimmer mansion.At this moment, the entire Zimmer mansion was brightly lit. Loud voices filled the place.Many senior
Mandy was waiting for Harvey at the entrance. When he returned, she quickly handed him a big towel. Her face was full of concern. Felix had spread the footage of Harvey being humiliated to the Yates family’s group chat. All of them were busy upvoting the video, too. Grandma Yates even praised Felix highly for it. She found his actions incredibly exceptional. Mandy wanted Felix to remove the video as soon as it was sent, but the Yates’ family members all lashed out at her for it.They also said that the filth of a man had lost all dignity for the Yates family. If Mandy still saw herself as a granddaughter of the Yates family, she should just kick him out of her family.At her so-called family’s attitude, Mandy boiled with anger.She quickly realized that the so-called gathering between their two families was just a set-up from the very beginning.One party wanted Harvey to be kicked out of the family.The other wanted to force her to kick him out.“Harvey, I know you’re will
Quinn narrowed her eyes as she looked at Mandy, and then broke into a smile. “Oh, Mandy! Perfect timing! Come, try the formal outfits that I prepared for you all and see if they fit.”As she talked, a servant pushed out a clothes stand.Mandy and her family subconsciously shifted their gaze toward the servant.The next second, utter disdain was written all over their faces. The outfits Quinn referred to were indeed formal, but for butlers and maids.Quinn actually brought out the outfits meant for servants for Mandy and Mandy’s family. What was she plotting?Noticing Mandy’s changing expression, Quinn said calmly, “Oh, Mandy. I heard that when big families go out, they need a few dedicated servants to come with them. If they don’t, they’d be disgracing the entire family!”“From now on, the Zimmers will be stepping into the threshold of a first-rated family.”“That’s why some things need to be given careful attention!”“The servants of this family are too low quality, so I
"You're someone who has experience, too. You know that you'll need at least three hours to prepare to get this many military helicopters deployed. It's not something that you can do in an instant. It means that while you're still fighting with Sora and his men, Isoroku has been standing by in this place."Not to mention that we Fujiharas will never work with them before getting what we want. Which means that the Origin Sword Style elites already knew that you will most likely survive even if you're at a disadvantage. That's why they've been staying here for a long time."While everyone knew that Kenta was probably just spewing nonsense, Clarion was still partially convinced when he heard how Kenta made his argument sound plausible. Could it be that Kenta was not the one pulling the strings here?Harvey narrowed his eyes and waved his hand. "At the very least, Kenta's right about his social standing being insufficient to work with Isoroku. Not to mention that now that they have obtai
At this time, the helicopter was passing through rows of mountains and valleys. This area was uninhabited. After passing through this uninhabited area, one would arrive at the Golden Triangle. Once one passed through the Golden Triangle, one would reach Hyperborea and finally Grand City.It was around this time that Harvey could feel a burst of murderous intent."Crap! Everyone, brace yourselves!" Clarion suddenly yelled as he looked in front of him from the front seats. He even took out a cigarette, lit it up, and took a deep huff to increase his mental focus as his expression darkened.Harvey quickly walked over to the front and narrowed his eyes. Then, he saw a swarm of helicopters flying in mid-air in a tight formation. Harvey looked at the flag on the helicopters with a smirk and gave Kenta a glance. "This is your so-called guarantee?"Kenta's expression also darkened as he looked in front in disbelief. After a while, he finally spoke in a shaky voice, "Forget about the helico
Daichi had already checked the Chapter of Ascension earlier back in Grand City, but he could not leave with it. Only after Harvey gave his green light would Rachel pass the Chapter of Ascension to Daichi.Harvey gave Kenta a look and then pulled out his phone and dialed a number. "Pass him the thing and escort him out."Harvey was straight-faced when he said that. While he had read it through, he did not believe that the Chapter of Ascension would really allow one to reach Unity between Nature and Man. It was not that Harvey was underestimating Hale, but as a martial art elite himself, he knew very well that there were many things required an epiphany to comprehend, and not just some so-called Chapter of Ascension.If that thing was really as effective as people said, Hale would not be hunted for more than a decade. In no time, a few hours went by. Kenta picked up his phone and after listening to the other side, he smiled. "You really are an honest man. Working with you is a very pl
Kenta continued to speak to Harvey in a chatty manner. "Everyone here can see how powerful you are. Unless we can kill you without any doubt, we won't be able to survive your revenge later on. That's why… You can trust me."Harvey looked at Kenta coldly. "Of course you won't be able to kill me. However, I need to make sure Mandy and my men are safe. That's why there's no need to waste your breath here."All you need to do is to give me an answer. Will you come with us? Before we leave, someone will let Daichi examine the Chapter of Ascension. Once we've left Sky Plane for about an hour, that person will then pass the Chapter of Ascension to Daichi. Don't worry. I'm a man of my word."Kenta smiled. "We'll believe you if you're willing to personally guarantee it. It's decided then. I believe we can work well together. Now, let's go."As soon as Kenta finished saying that, he waved his hand. All the Islander elites stepped aside despite the weapons in their hands. This was also a way
Slap!Harvey gave another slap at Jun's face."So what if I did? I'll kill you if you waste anymore of my time!" Before Jun could even finish, Harvey had already grabbed him by his neck. Onmyojis are physically weaker than most, so Jun could not fight back at all while being held like that."You fool! Release Mr. Jun!""Mr. Jun is one of the best among the onmyojis in Sky Plane!""Don't show any disrespect!"All the Islanders roared when they saw Harvey disrespected Jun so much. They quickly drew their long swords and pointed them at Harvey. Dozens of people also started to approach Mandy. Clarion and the others also reacted quickly, protecting Mandy behind them. The atmosphere between both sides became extremely tense in just one moment.Harvey's hand never released Jun's throat as he calmly turned to Kenta and said, "Alright, Kenta. Let's continue the discussion of our three conditions. The first condition is that you must escort us out of Sky Plane and guarantee our safety. A
"You really are very impressive, Kenta. It's quite rare for someone like you to exist within the Fujihara family," commented Harvey after he took a deep breath and loosened his fists. "I have a feeling that someone like you will eventually climb up the ladder. Who knows, you might be the next Island Nation's Emperor."All the Islanders around them had strange looks after they heard what Harvey had just said. Even Kenta's eyes twitched before he replied helplessly, "You're joking, Mr. Harvey. I'm just someone from the branch family. The emperor's throne has always belonged to the main branch and the main branch alone."Then, Kenta changed the subject after that. "Since it sounds like you have a change of mind, does it mean you're willing to fulfill your part of the promise?"Harvey calmly said, "Not exactly. This is just a simple trade, and so is the trade's content. I'll give you the Chapter of Ascension, and you promise three things. That's reasonable…"At this point, the mysterio
Looking at Kenta's expression, Harvey's eyes narrowed. The Islanders could become fanatical most of the time, and he knew that very well from how Kenta was presenting himself. Their people believed in collectivism to the point of radicalism. One single word from their superiors was enough to make them sacrifice themselves and fight to the bitter end, not to mention if they were convinced if it was for the greater good.In short, if he really refused to give them the Chapter of Ascension, then Kenta would really give up on this pretentious act and detonate the Emerald Jewel. However, while the Emerald Jewel could injure him, he knew it could not kill him. But, Mandy and the others were another case entirely. If the Emerald Jewel was detonated, none of them could escape.Harvey frowned, realizing that the situation was getting more complicated."Mr. Harvey, you understand that the Chapter of Ascension isn't worth the lives of the people here. Not to mention if you do manage to obtain
"Firstly, this is Sky Plane. This is the Sacred Martial Art Training Ground for the Island Nation. Based on the promise made between each of the Sacred Training Grounds, we can consider one as hostile if they enter without an invitation. That's why when you barged into this place without invitation and were suspected of murdering the citizens of Sky Plane, we have the right to stop you from leaving the place and investigate."Secondly, Mr. Sora is a citizen of Sky Plane. It is within reason for us to protect his safety. Thirdly, Grand City will need to give us a reasonable explanation for this."And finally, if any of you refuse to cooperate, then according to the laws of Sky Plane's Admin Board, we have the right to kill all the intruders!" said Kenta with a wide grin."I know you're extremely strong, Mr. Harvey. So strong that you're the best here. But the question is, what's the use if you have personal strength in this situation? Even if you can defeat a hundred, can you defeat
"Mr. Harvey, I know how powerful you are and how invincible you can be. I also have a lot of respect toward you and wouldn't dare show you any insolence," explained Kenta with a harmonious smile. "However, I need to negotiate with you as it's part of my duties. I hope you can calm down so we can talk."First of all, Ms. Mandy is alright. While it looks like you have to come and save her, you need to trust me when I said if it's not for our effort, the men from Origin Sword Style wouldn't have waited until today. With their powers, if we didn't try and stop them with everything we can, Ms. Mandy would be a corpse now. You have to give credit where credit is due, don't you think? I believe someone of your caliber won't deny it, right?"Secondly, I can swear by the name of the Ruling Royal Family that everything that happened today had nothing to do with us. Since we have decided to make a trade with you, we won't stab you in the back. Our conscience is clear when it's regarding this."
