Chapter 878

Author: A Potato-Loving Wolf
Adam Xavier smiled when he saw Yvonne Xavier.

“Yvonne, just in time! Everyone was talking about you, too.”

“Finally, a young grown woman in the family!”

“This has been the fifth time that a handsome young man proposed to you!”

As he spoke, Adam took out a few photographs and set them on the tea table.

“Come, come, come. Take a look! This is the prince of the Leo family, Chris Leo. This is the prince of the Surrey family, Luke Surrey. Here’s the prince of the Robbins family, Oscar Robbins. This one here is the prince of the Cloude family, Declan Cloude. And this here is Prince Finn Yates…”

“All of them are handsome and capable young men. Whoever you pick, it’d be good for the family.”

However, Yvonne didn’t even bat her eyes at the photos.

Instead she headed to Sheldon and said quietly, “Grandfather, you should know that I won’t marry anyone.”

Sheldon sighed. “How can I not understand how you feel? It’s just that, so many families came to propose. Even someone like me can’t rej

    “But so what?”“Prince York doesn’t even look at you! You followed him for so many years, but you still haven’t made a name for yourself!”“Things are different now. Since Prince Leo took pity and turned his attention to you, you should cherish this opportunity!”“You should thank the heavens that he didn’t see you as some sort of vixen. How dare you still reject his proposal?!”“Are you that shameless?!”At Ivan’s words, the rest of the Xaviers nodded in approval.They looked at Yvonne Xavier as if she was a gold mine.If she agreed to marry Chris Leo, the benefits the Xaivers would enjoy would be far beyond anyone’s imagination.“Oh, Yvonne. It’s not that I have anything against you, but women need to take care of themselves…”“Let’s talk about Prince York who never left your mind. Didn’t he get rejected in front of a huge crowd while proposing to a stupid woman?”“But even when he was rejected, he never did consider you.”“Yvonne. Even if you don’t think anything of the f

    Buckwood High School.Xynthia Zimmer’s head was hung low as she made hurried steps, as if she was fleeing from something.When she got to the entrance of the school, a few girls stood there, blocking her path.“Why are you running, Xynthia? You’re fast! You didn’t hook up with an old man for money now, did you?”“I couldn’t tell! You usually seemed like an obedient little girl, and you wouldn’t accept anyone’s confession. To make money this way, I can’t believe you’re such a loose girl!”“You can just tell us if you’re short on cash. We can relieve you of your stress. There’s no need to degrade yourself to this point!”These girls had a terrible relationship with Xynthia.Xynthia never paid any attention to the boys in her class, especially after the KTV affair. Only her brother-in-law was in her mind. It was the reason why she rejected quite a few boys that could be considered exceptional.Because of this, quite a few girls became terribly jealous of Xynthia.If they had a ch

    Xynthia was not an idiot. She knew full well that once the recording spread, the rumors and slanders would never stop.“We have nothing against each other. Why are you doing this to me?!”Xynthia was perplexed.“Don’t you know that girls like you are no better than filthy street rats? Everyone should condemn you!”“Since you have a rich old man supporting you, you’re tarnishing the reputation the whole school! I’ll punish you in place of the school authorities. What other reason do I need?”Yelena Surrey shot Xynthia a look of disdain. She would not reveal her true intentions.However, it couldn’t be denied that she was enjoying the whole thing.Xynthia’s face darkened. She had no one to help her, and she couldn’t snatch the phone out of Selena’s hands.Agreeing to Yelena Surrey’s conditions was the equivalent of having a new leverage against herself.Once the recording was exposed, Xynthia would end up lonelier than before.What should she do?Xynthia subconsciously grabbed

    Harvey did not start the engine when he and Xynthia entered the car. Instead he frowned at her.“Xynthia, tell me what’s going on. Why were the girls picking on you?”His question made Xynthia feel wronged.“Brother-In-Law, do you remember the KTV situation? I don’t really hang out with my classmates anymore after that.”“But this Zane guy keeps chasing after me. He confessed to me publicly quite a few times already, but I rejected him every single time.”“Yelena started to hate me because of that. I heard rumors saying she likes Zane.”Harvey massaged his eyebrows, speechless after listening to everything.It took him a while to recall who Zane Shaw was.‘Isn’t he the kid that I bumped into when I was taking Xynthia home from KTV?’‘And this Yelena kid…’ ‘What is this?’‘A soap opera between classmates?’“How did something so simple escalate to this point?”Harvey fell in deep thought. From what he saw Yelena did today, these highschoolers’ little drama did not have to g

    The class teacher wore a firm expression. She knew that although Xynthia was a transfer student, Xynthia was an extremely hardworking and diligent pupil. She whole-heartedly opposed the idea of expelling Xynthia.“Principal! The situation was only a misunderstanding between the pupils. You mustn’t expel a good student because of something so minor!”Listening to the class teacher’s exclamation, Zane Shaw’s mother stood up furiously.“A misunderstanding? How could you call this a misunderstanding?!”“Zane is an outstanding student! I raised him with my own sweat and tears!”“It’s an honor both for him and us to have Lady Surrey look up to him!”“Even the parents can tell he’s fit for her!”“But then this wretched little tramp, Xynthia Zimmer, wanted to take all of the Shaw family’s money to climb up the social hierarchy!”“That’s why she wanted to destroy the two’s relationship!”“Bad students like her should be expelled!”Her logic was obviously skewed.A petty affair betwee

    The accusation of Zane’s mother pushed the enchanting and alluring Miss Yuna into shivering with anger.Because of her beautiful eyes and sensual body along, with her kind heart, there had been gossip everywhere about her.But Miss Yuna was someone with good moral integrity. How could a woman like that be bought when she hadn’t even fallen in love yet?Miss Yuna could not hold in her anger anymore.“Mrs. Shaw, please watch your language!”“Stop spouting nonsense!”“If you don’t have any proof, I’ll sue you for slander!”“Sue me? Do it, then!”Zane’s mother was behaving incredibly shamelessly.“If you weren’t a loose woman, then why are you protecting that tramp Xynthia Zimmer?”“It’s all because of unclean teachers like you that students like my son would even have a chance to be born!”“How dare you sue me? Have you no shame?!”Miss Yuna was furious. She could pinpoint what mostly happened.The whole thing was just jealousy between students, no harm done.But Zane’s moth

    “Who’s the president here?!”Harvey glared coldly at Zane’s vixen of a mother. He had seen too many women of her ilk, and could not be bothered by her kind.“I am! Who are you to barge in the school’s meeting room like this?!”The principal stood up and gowered at Harvey, full of discontent.“Have you at least investigated the situation thoroughly before you decided to expel Xynthia?” Harvey York demanded icily.“This situation only concerns the school staff. It has nothing to do with you!”The principal barked back disdainfully.‘Where did this young man come from? How dare he question me? What a joke!’“I’m a relative of hers. Of course it has something to do with me if she’s going to be expelled.”“Whoever slanders her in front of me will perish.”Harvey’s expression was as cold as the arctic. He did not appreciate a mere principal acting so pridefully in front of him.“Kid!”At this moment, Zane’s father stood. His body stank of seafood.He threw Harvey a contemptuous

    Of course, the headmaster didn’t know who Harvey York was.But he knew full well that not only did Zane Shaw make significant donations to the school. He was also closely acquainted with the chairman of the school.Plus, the chairman was from the Surrey family, so the conclusion to how this matter would be settled was set early on. It would be impossible to change it.At that moment, the headmaster spoke up coldly, “I don’t care who you are, but today’s result won’t be changed in any way.“Xynthia Zimmer is expelled out of our school, and regarding the issue of you trespassing the school, I have the power to seek legal responsibility from you!“And you shall settle the financial problem yourself with Zane Shaw.”Harvey’s face turned cold as he scanned through the faces of other members of the school’s board of directors. “So, do you all here think the same way as he does?”“You punk, do you really think you can change our decision by trespassing our meeting room here?”“You sho

    The opposing force got out of the helicopters after they landed, armed with weapons. Some were melee weapons, some were firearms, and they looked high and mighty all the way.Kenta had no choice but to step up. He raised his hand and yelled, "I'm from Fujihara…"But before he could even finish, someone from the other side had already pulled the trigger. A bullet streaked through Kenta's hair, and he finally broke a sweat when he realized what had just happened.Harvey knew very clearly that they were coming for him after seeing what happened. That was why he decided not to stay still anymore and stepped forward. He coldly said, "You're here for me, aren't you? Tell Isoroku to come talk to me."I have to say you are quite brave, Harvey. Calling me by name without any honorifics," A stern and cold voice came from a helicopter right before them. The door opened, and an islander slowly walked out. It was a man with white hair and beard.His figure was thin and even looked sickly, defi

    "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
