Fourth Master Yates froze over slightly after hearing those words, then asked, “What did the Elder mean? Why would he give such an order suddenly?”Theo then smiled.“Congratulations, Fourth Master!”“The few of us in the government had gotten to one conclusion after analyzing the news we had acquired!”“The circumstances globally are quite unusual right now. The higher-ups would not want to go against America because of it!”“That’s why they’re prepared to turn a blind eye to everything that we do. They’re letting us do whatever we want!”A faint smile with a tinge of madness leaked out of his face. He then reached out and knocked his backhand.“It seems like the government of Buckwood and South Light would not even want to protect Harvey York and Sky Corporation this time!”“Since that’s the case, we’ll continue according to plan!”“Understood!”All the big characters of the Yates family bowed swiftly.“Spread my order. Every powerhouse and representative of big families i
Fourth Master Yates was standing in the middle of the mourning hall. A terrifying aura was shrouding his body.It was as if a tiger that had been long in slumber was about to bare its fangs once again.The awakening of the tiger would surely pile up bones like a mountain and blood flowing like a river.Not far away from Fourth Master Yates, Evander was wearing a white shirt. He seemed lonely and depressed, but the people that knew who he was were still trembling in their boots.He was prepared to kill because he wore white!It was said that Evander would even kill gods whenever he wore white!This was not just some rumor. There were countless wars to prove this.Besides that, there were many celebrities from the upper social circle of Buckwood standing disorderly in an empty space in front of the mourning hall.A big part of them were not even people from Buckwood. They were all from big families and representatives for authorities in Buckwood. They were there to attend the inv
Fourth Master Yates raised his hand slightly to gesture at everyone to silence, and he then spoke slowly, “I’ve been in isolation for four whole years. My favorite pastime was to recite scriptures in the mountains!“But never have I thought that some oblivious fool would just slaughter my people over and over again!“The Yates from America only wanted to do business here in Buckwood. We didn’t want to cause any conflict!“But we have no fear toward others as well!“Since someone wanted to go against us, I’ll be here representing the Yates family from America!“We will not stop until Sky Corporation is destroyed!“We will not stop until Prince York is dead!“We will not stop until Harvey York is dead!”Fourth Master Yates’ speech echoed everywhere.“An eye for an eye!”“Blood for blood!”All fifteen thousand gangsters were shouting in unison. Murderous intent was soaring through the skies.Display of power like this had made everyone present tremble in utter fear.Who would
“Well then, two esteemed guests. I sincerely wish that you have the glory of today for every single day of your life, Fourth Master Yates!”“This…”The crowd gasped after hearing those words. They could not even utter a single word.Those words were too shocking!Did the man just cursed Fourth Master Yates to have his children die every year by saying that at a funeral?!“Fourth Master! These two are too arrogant! No need to wait for them. We’ll rip Sky Corporation to shreds right now!”Gus Yates’ gaze was cold and scornful.They were looking for their deaths, provoking the Yates family from America like that!All the collateral relatives of the family were showing cold gazes in their eyes at this moment as well.Those people were taking pride as the collateral relatives of the Yates family from America. Still, someone would actually dare to insult the most influential person in the family, Fourth Master Yates!Who wouldn’t be boiling with anger?!“Damn him! Damn Prince York
Fourth Master Yates coldly looked at the sight, then calmly said, “Continue the funeral, send my son away!”“First bow!”“Second bow!”“Third bow!”“Greet the family!”***Countless people were handing over bouquets in an orderly fashion at this moment. A sight like this was utterly shocking.Burials of kings in the past might not even have the right to do so.“Fourth Master, should we commence with the burial?” Leyton Luv asked quietly.“There’s no need to rush. I want every single higher-up in Sky Corporation to carry the coffins!“I want Prince York and Harvey York buried under the coffin too!“Now go. Since somebody wants to play, we’ll play with them!“Get to Sky Corporation!“Catch Prince York alive!”The fifteen thousand people present were roaring furiously, all of them boiling in anger.All of Buckwood’s celebrities gave a phone call after seeing the sight, asking their family to close shop and their families to stay home.Fourth Master Yates was ready to form
Harvey York looked at the ancient coffin and then smiled.“Now that you know my true identity, why don’t you crawl into the coffin yourself, Fourth Master?“We can both save our strength this way!”“Heh heh heh…”Fourth Master Yates let out a cold chuckle.“I prepared another coffin for you too. But now I know that Consultant York is Prince York himself. This one should suffice!”“But you and I are different. I wouldn’t let you crawl in it yourself. I’ll throw you in myself!”Harvey laughed.“Sorry, I’m still young, unlike you. You’re already knee-deep in the dirt!“Besides, I think it would be better for me to live if we were to fight to the death.“The world needs me to keep the peace after all!”Harvey was grinning cheekily, even though he was stating the truth.“You…”Fourth Master Yates was boiling with anger. He was no opponent to banter against Harvey, after all.He took a deep breath at this moment and forced himself to calm down. “Let me ask you, Prince York. W
Shocking!Fourth Master Yates and the others all gasped at this moment. They were utterly shocked!This man was strong!Everyone knew that to be the mob boss of the northeast, the person would have to be extremely powerful.The people under him, the Safflower Fighters, would be considered to be near invincible.But nobody thought that they would all be dealt with after three whole seconds.Fourth Master Yates understood then that Harvey York had such a powerful man by his side. That was why all three of the Kings of Arms were slaughtered.The man in front Fourth Master Yates was mighty!Fourth Master Yates even thought that the man must have been worthy of the title of God of War.But the thought had only crossed Fourth Master Yates’ head for a short moment.There was no turning back between the two parties, let alone Ethan Hunt’s worth in the eyes of Fourth Master Yates.Even if he were to know that Ethan was an actual God of War, he would not stop.“I know that you’re str
Those gangsters on the streets had never seen anything like this before.All of them were looking at the men while showing grim expressions on their faces.They were too mysterious. They were abnormal no matter how anyone saw it.“Special forces? So what?” Fourth Master Yates exclaimed coldly.“Did you forget that I was also from the special forces?“Even if these people are Kings of Arms, you are still going to kill every single one of them!“Are there fifteen thousand or only twenty of you?! Go!”All the gangsters looked at each other, then let out cold chuckles on their faces the next moment.‘Fourth Master Yates is right. It’s just twenty of them. What can they even do to all of us?’“Go!”The gangsters all rushed forward.All twenty of the Dragon Guards moved in unison. Ancient steel and state-of-the-art firearms were aimed at the enemy at the same time.Boom boom boom!Loud bangs were all over the cemetery. The gangsters who wanted to get close to Harvey York were al
Sky Plane's countryside, Clover Hotel.In the Clover Hotel's VIP area, a mansion at the edge of the hotel, Mandy was looking outside with a deep frown. At this time, someone gently knocked at her door from the outside."Come in," Mandy said.The leader of the security team, Seven Jean of the Jeans of Mordu, came in. He bowed to Mandy with respect before saying calmly, "Ms. Mandy, according to the information I've received, the women you've saved have been sent out of Sky Plane. I've also confirmed the people we came into conflict with. He's Yamamoto Sora, scion of the Origin Sword Style."The school's status is very high in Sky Plane. While we managed to get some protection for the time being, I believe we won't be able to make this disappear so quickly. Our visa only has an effective duration of seven days. Once the time is up, Sky Plane will have an excuse to remove all the security here. We'll be in danger when that happens."I think we should leave Sky Plane immediately whil
Mandy reacted very quickly, as if she understood something. She quickly said to Harvey through the phone, "I'm on the sixth floor of a hotel! I…"Before she could even finish, Daichi had already hung up the call with a tap. He then gave Harvey a meaningful look. "There are some rules you should keep, Mr. Harvey. Otherwise, if the people from Sky Plane's side have a misunderstanding, I can't tell what will happen next."Alright. Let's get into the main topic. Ms. Mandy is very safe right now, but I believe that her safety can only be maintained for two to three days. My men can't continue protecting her without a good reason, right? "Once it has been confirmed that there's nothing here that I want, my people who maintain her protection will be pulled back immediately. No one can tell what will happen after that."Daichi gave Harvey a dry smile. "That's why you'll be in control of Ms. Mandy's life and death. We are people who keep our side of the deals. We hope you can maintai
Harvey's expression was calm as he said coldly to Daichi, "No matter how good and logical you make it sound, the truth is, you're threatening me. Rather than being threatened by the Sky Plane, why don't you stick around and be my hostage for an exchange?"As soon as Harvey had finished saying that, he slammed his hand on the table. A piece of wood immediately fired out from the table and pierced into the chair's backrest, just next to Daichi's ear.However, Harvey was in for a surprise. Even in a situation like this, Daichi was still able to maintain his calmness as he continued to enjoy his meal. It was as if the one about to die here wasn't him.Once Daichi had chewed his food slowly and swallowed it, only then did he smile at Harvey. "Mr. Harvey, or Mr. Representative. Do you really think fighting can solve everything? It's true I'm from the branch family of the Ruling Royal Family and the blood of royalty flows in my veins, but there are too many like me. So many that I am eas
"Most importantly, this matter with Ms. Mandy happened in Sky Plane—which means outsiders can't enter quietly and save her," Daichi said to Harvey with a smile. "But don't worry, Harvey. We know Ms. Mandy is yours, so we'll find a way to keep protecting her. How to protect her and for how long would depend on your sincerity, though."Harvey's expression was cold as he said slowly, "And here I thought you'd tell me you'd do everything to protect Mandy, making a show despite how shameless you are. I didn't expect you to be so direct—in threatening me! If I refuse your request, Mandy will immediately fall into Sora's hand, right?"Daichi smiled faintly. "You're indeed a perceptive and decisive man. It makes things easier for me to work with someone like you. I will tell you what you need to do—or perhaps, it's easier for me to say what price you need to pay for Mandy's return."Daichi took a final bite of his fish and said with a smug smile, "It's simple. Give me the Chapter of Ascensi
Daichi smiled faintly and said, "I know very well that in the eyes of people like you, Islanders like us are detestable. Speaking with us, working with us, and even eating a meal with us is quite disgusting, right?"However, we must all learn to be patient. It has already happened for quite some time. Is there a point in rushing through these few minutes? It's better for us to share a good meal and have a chat afterward."Daichi slowly partook in the meal, putting a piece of fish into his mouth and chewing slowly. At the same time, he narrowed his eyes as he looked at Harvey, his eyes filled with subtle amusement.Daichi found the meal before him quite enjoyable. He also found himself quite satisfied looking at Harvey showing a hint of irritation."Looks like you really think that you have me under control," Harvey said coldly. "But I can tell you that by just sitting here, my patience is already at its limit. I have a habit, too. Rather than being threatened by someone, I prefer t
Harvey looked at Daichi coldly. "I don't think there's anything between you and me that we need to talk about."However, Daichi said passionately, "But I believe we do. This is not a place for us to speak of such things, though. I have prepared a table for us at the best restaurant serving Island Nation cuisine in Grand City. I invite you to dine with us. How does that sound?"Not only can we talk about what's happening at the Island Nation, Sky Plane's scenery, the Seven Families of Grand City…as well as what's currently going on with Ms. Mandy of the Jeans of Mordu!"Clack!Harvey immediately grabbed Daichi by the throat. "I dare you to say it one more time. Are you threatening me?"Daichi smiled faintly. "Threaten? You must be joking! Someone like me doesn't threaten anyone. However, Sky Plane does have a deal with the Jeans of Mordu. They will be sending out a representative, who turns out to be Ms. Mandy."However, Ms. Mandy doesn't know much about the situation in Sky Plane
Hearing the conversation between Harvey and Clarion, Hale wasn't sure what to say. He let out a long sigh and said, "Thank you, Mr. Harvey, Mr. Clarion. I won't waste my breath, then. Since you're willing to protect a cripple like me, I'll be in your care from now on."He took out a paper and pen from the bedside table and quickly drew a picture, then put it in front of him. "Mr. Harvey, this is the real location of the Chapter of Ascension. I know you're sincere in helping me. I can't repay you, so I can only offer you this. Please don't refuse it. This thing will only get me killed if I have it with me."However, if it's with you, you should be able to put it to good use. Consider it my goodwill. I… I hope you can accept this and give me a chance to repay your kindness."Hale then made a gesture and swore, "I swear, this is the real location where the Chapter of Ascension is hidden. This is not a death trap. Please trust me. Other than the Chapter of Ascension, there's also some
It was obvious that Hale's anger and sorrow had pushed him to the limit. He was already blaming Sky Plane for everything. Sky Plane had just earned him as a mortal enemy."My condolences, Hale." Harvey extended his hand and tapped Hale's shoulder. "The dead can't be brought back, so the most important thing now is to recover. Sky Plane is a difficult enemy."Clarion nodded as well. "Now that Susan is dead, Sky Plane will not let this slide. However, we'll need to get you a new identity after you recover. Only when you're safe and when you can live for yourself will you have the chance to have your revenge."I've just received news that everyone in Grand City knows who you are. All the other Sacred Lands will find out very quickly. In a short while, there will be countless people looking for you, for us. That's why you need to get ready. We're running out of time."When Clarion said that, the frigid light in his eyes glinted. He didn't need to send anyone to find out what was go
"No matter what happened, she treated me well all these years. Even if I were to kill her, I want her to die with some dignity. As for the trouble from Sky Plan and her… I'll give you an explanation you'll be happy with. Please permit me," Hale said, not caring for the wounds on his body even when he was kneeling on the floor.Clarion looked stern. If he were to bring in a spy like Susan, it would help him immensely in his career. If they got her into the interrogation room and asked her proper questions, they could get valuable answers from her. That was the only value she had left.However, Clarion also knew why Hale framed it that way. She was still his wife, even when she had already betrayed him. Rather than letting someone like Clarion take her away right now and live a torturous life that she wouldn't be able to tell day by night, he'd prefer to kill her right now. That way, Susan would be able to die peacefully.But how should he choose? Clarion was having a headache rig
