After Mandy’s bodyguards escorted her out of the box, Harvey turned to Hugh and co. with a cold tone. “Hugh Baker, aren’t you afraid that you’ll die in Buckwood for what you said to me?”“Die in Buckwood?”Hugh burst out laughing, his gaze full of disdain. “Do you know who I am?”“Even if you didn’t look up my identity as the second master of the Baker family from San Francisco, aren’t you scared of my godfather? Aren’t you scared of Longmen?”“You should know that your support, Yoel Graham, is on par with a mere dog in Longmen!”Longmen was an underground organization within Country H.Legends said that the man who owned Longmen was a major figure from Wolsing. His identity was terrifying, and he was one of the Elders back then.After retiring, he then established Longmen.Longmen had branches in every big city. The branch leader in Mordu, for example, was none other than Oliver Bauer himself.From this perspective, Hugh’s identity did seem quite terrifying.“Longmen?”Ha
At this moment, Tristan Quinlan finally reacted and yelled, “Kill him!”A group of subordinates and bodyguards rushed over at the same time to surround Harvey York.Tyson Woods, who had never spoken, moved sideways, stepped forward, and instantaneously, Tristan’s neck was snatched.Bang!Tristan was then smashed to the ground. Then, Tyson stepped on his face and said coldly, “CEO York is doing things, who dares to stop him!“Whoever dares to take one more step forward, I’ll trample him to death!”Tyson was the king of the streets, after all. He was very respectful in front of Harvey.However, when he really made a move, he regained his character of a man from the streets.At this moment, Tyson’s fierceness instantly caused those subordinates and bodyguards to hesitate, not knowing whether they want to step forward or not.After all, Tristan’s origin was also extraordinary. What if he was trampled to death?Meanwhile, Harvey had already grabbed the second bottle of beer and sm
On the other hand, Hugh Baker was trembling all over at this moment. He then shouted, “Call my godfather and ask him to send everyone who can to come here!”“Tristan, call your cousin here!”At this moment, someone whispered, “Second Young Master, do you want to call the Young Master here?”“Why would you want to call him? Do you want me to be a disgrace in front of him?”Bang! Hugh kicked the subordinate aside.“Whoever dares to tell him about this is against me!”Hugh’s face was distorted. Although he came to Buckwood this time because of a call from Sam Baker…However, he and Sam had never been on good terms in the Baker family of San Francisco. Both of them were competing for the succession of the Baker family.If he asked Sam for help at this moment, he might as well die!Nonetheless, he was not afraid. Not to mention that Tristan Quinlan was from the Quinlan family, who was quite influential in South Light.Just his godfather, Oliver Bauer, the branch leader of Longmen,
“York, I can show some mercy and give you one last chance!“Kneel, grovel and admit your mistakes. Cut off one of your hands and one of your legs. Send your wife and your sister-in-law to my bed. Then I’ll let you go!”Harvey York said nonchalantly, “I’m now more than determined to break your limbs.”“York, I’m warning you…”Hugh Baker then pointed at Harvey.“Stop pretending in front of me. The backer that you’re so full of couldn’t protect you!”Tyson Woods looked at Hugh with a foolish expression. Couldn’t this guy see that a person like the Chief Instructor did not need any backer at all?Or it should be said that Harvey, himself, was the most powerful backer.“If it’s only these few people and these little energies…“Hugh, you’re destined to be a beggar without limbs for the rest of your life.”Harvey looked at the crowd indifferently.“Presumptuous!”“You’re such a pain!”Hugh was not angry at this moment. Instead, he smiled, “York, you will soon know what it takes t
When Hugh Baker saw Karl Quinlan, he was very confident at the moment.Although they did not work in the same place, they were both somewhat famous people in the circles of the great Country H.They had long admired each other’s names.Hugh obviously knew of Karl’s ability. Hence, he was very touched when he saw Karl still came over to help him even if he was injured!At the same time, he was also feeling very confident since Karl was from the Quinlan family of Georgia. Kyle Quinlan from that particular family was the second-in-command of South Light!They could easily trample anyone to death with a backer that had such a background.Those female companions were looking at Karl with dazzling eyes.Although Karl was no different from a disabled person…However, he had that arrogance!Even if he were lying on a hospital bed, he would still exude such an aura.How could a live-in son-in-law compare to him?!All those beauties were looking at Harvey York sarcastically as soon as
Tristan Quinlan was also taken aback by Harvey York’s tone.However, there was ecstasy in his heart. The more arrogant this guy Harvey was, the more miserable he would die in a while!At this moment, he jumped up, pointed at Harvey, and said, “Cousin, that’s him! He is Harvey!“Not only did he hurt me, but he also hit Young Master Baker!“Now he even insults you!“You must make his life a living hell!”Karl Quinlan had a bandage on his face. Thus, Tristan did not see the fear on his face.Harvey said indifferently at this moment. “Yes, I did it all. Karl Quinlan, do you have a problem with it?”Arrogant!Everyone sneered again and again after hearing Harvey’s tone.York was too arrogant and had no sense of decency!Hugh Baker also sneered repeatedly. The sillier Harvey was, the happier he was.He would die more miserably because of this.“York, hurry up and kneel!”Tristan continued to shout!“Are you trying to make my cousin angry?!“The consequences are serious if my
Tristan Quinlan looked aggrieved.However, Karl Quinlan’s expression was repulsive, and it could even be out of panic.At this moment, he could not wait to choke Tristan to death.Why did he have to provoke Harvey York, of all people?!Moreover, getting him involved by asking him to come here. This was certainly sending him to his demise!It was crucial to understand that Karl managed to stay alive last time and only got one hand and one foot cut off.He never thought he would meet Harvey again, and his injury had not properly healed. This certainly made him unable even to squeeze out a tear.Under the gaze of the group of people, Harvey walked to the edge of the trash can and threw the tissue away. He then calmly walked back to Karl and said indifferently, “Young Master Quinlan, let’s continue.“I’m asking you a question. Do you have a problem with that?”Karl trembled all over and said, “No, I don’t dare!”How would he even dare to have a problem with that?!He had a lot o
“Understand, understand!”Karl Quinlan only nodded and bowed after Harvey York had finished speaking and began to wipe his palms.He was acting like a grandson in front of this person.There was dead silence in the crowd as if you could even hear a needle drop. No one could accept this scene.Hugh Baker and Tristan Quinlan were both in a trance, almost thinking they had hysteria.Harvey’s gaze fell indifferently on Tristan. He said coldly, “I already told you that even if Karl Quinlan is here, he won’t be able to stand upright in front of me.“Now, try asking him if he dares to stand up.”Tristan stuttered and did not know how to answer. He only knew that he was a real shame today.Harvey stood with his hands on his back. He stopped making moves and said nonchalantly, “I’ll do the Quinlan family from Georgia a favor, but you have to give me an explanation on this matter today.“This brat wanted to drug my sister-in-law…”Karl trembled after listening to Harvey’s words.Why d
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
