The two slept, fully dressed. None of them crossed the line.Suddenly, at two o’clock in the morning, the ringing of a phone startled them awake.Harvey was shocked. He came back to his senses when he realized that it was not his phone.Mandy hurriedly answered the phone. Her expression instantly changed in the next moment. “What? Lady Snake and her subordinates are all dead?!”When he heard her, Harvey’s expression changed just as abruptly.He didn’t kill Lady Snake because he wanted Mandy to have a way out.Unexpectedly, Lady Snake still ended up dead.It was a scenario all too similar to Oliver Bauer’s death.There was almost no need to infer the cause. Harvey was certain that the other party was coming after him.Unfortunately, Mandy was dragged along in this mess.***Half an hour later, Harvey, Mandy, and her family went to the funeral home.There, many police cars and several luxury vehicles were present. The supposedly quiet funeral home was bursting with noise. M
“If it wasn;t because you couldn’t handle your unfilial daughter, I wouldn’t have needed to send Lady Snake out to execute the family law!”“If not for that, then she wouldn’t have gone to your house and there wouldn’t have been any accidents!”“I don’t know if you killed her or not. But you are certainly related to her untimely death!”“Lady Snake is the deity of the Jean family in Mordu!”“Now, she’s dead! You owe me an explanation!”Senior Zimmer was going a little rough on them. Simon and Lilian were afraid to avoid his blows, and they ended up badly beaten. “Grandfather, why beat people without clarifying things?!”Mandy and Xynthia couldn’t bear watching their parents being beaten. They rushed to protect Simon and Lilian.“Go to hell!”Seeing Mandy, a trace of fury flashed in Senior Zimmer’s eyes. He instantly brought his crutch toward Mandy.But just as the crutch was about to hit Mandy’s forehead…Bang!Harvey, who was standing in the back, stepped forward. He grab
“What I said doesn’t count?!”“Even the words of the head of the Jean family in Mordu doesn’t count?!”Senior Zimmer looked at Harvey with a sneer. “York! Do you really think that you have the right to act arrogantly in front of me when you’re just some prince from a fallen family?”“Do you think I’m the same as I was before?”“Since I’ve become the head, I’m not someone a nobody like you can offend!”“Come! Take Harvey down for me! Cut off his head and use it as a blood sacrifice to Lady Snake!”Senior Zimmer barked out an order, incredulous from anger.Several bodyguards flanked Harvey in an instant. They were powerful men specifically arranged to protect Senior Zimmer by Lucas himself. Not only did they possess amazing skills, but they also acted decisively and only obeyed Senior Zimmer’s orders.In a blink of an eye, they pulled out their guns and pointed them at Harvey.“Don’t!”Mandy immediately pushed Harvey to the ground.Swish!Five rays of lights locked on Harve
Harvey grabbed Mandy and Xynthia and went to Simon and Lilian. He then picked up the firearms from the ground and threw them over to the four so that they could defend themselves.Harvey then stepped forward and walked to the center of the field after doing that.No matter what the purpose of the Ninja House from Island Nation was, they were certainly coming for him.Thus, staying with him at this moment would be dangerous.Harvey didn’t know why the Ninja House wanted to take action against him, but he was sure of one thing.Oliver and Lady Snake’s deaths were the work of the Ninja House.“Idiot! Harvey, I’ll give you three seconds. Quickly come over and kneel immediately!”The so-called inspector yelled, glaring at Harvey.“Otherwise, I’ll kill this old man!”He kicked Quinn to the ground and stomped on her with his foot at the same time.Harvey’s pupils shrank, but he didn’t say a word in protest.The noisy room gradually became quiet. Everyone present was focusing their
Senior Zimmer was in so much pain, his breathing was all over the place. He could only take in big breaths, unable to speak so much as a word.He wanted to yell angrily at Harvey, but he didn’t have the strength.The Zimmers took in the scene, stupefied. They never imagined that the islanders could be so cruel and refused to give either side any chances of mitigation.Normally, one wouldn’t act so rashly.A painful expression appeared on Harvey’s face. He looked at Quinn, slightly worried about her. However, his worried look instantly disappeared right after. He said boldly, “I can come over, but you have to let Quinn go. She has nothing to do with this matter!”Quinn was startled.Crack!Without a word, the fake inspector then broke Quinn’s left hand with one foot.“Ah!”Quinn screamed. It was true that recently, she had been practicing martial arts and did have some abilities. However, she wanted to take advantage of the situation to kill Harvey and Mandy, so she didn’t figh
The rest of the Zimmers, as well as the bodyguards present, froze in shock.Not only was Lady Snake dead, Quinn had even followed suit. And now, Senior Zimmer was also dead.It could be said that all the arrangements the Jeans of Mordu had set up in Buckwood and South Light had all crumbled into nothing.The fake inspector approached Mandy swiftly.Bang!Harvey had long predicted the fake inspector’s actions. He moved forward and aimed a punch at the man.Bang!The fake inspector backed away, spitting blood as he retreated backwards. However, he still managed to kill three to five bodyguards who had pulled out their firearms against him.“Kill!”The rest of the bodyguards could only draw their swords as they rushed towards the man.Senior Zimmer was dead. Quinn was dead. If they didn’t kill that man, they’d be dead meat!They rushed forward with raised power in their steps, and the sounds of weapons clashing followed suit. Despite facing a deadly duel against the frantical
Young Master Ward’s eyes were icy. After a while he hissed, “Did you take note of your whereabouts when you came back?”“Have you been followed?”The fake inspector shook his head. “Don’t worry, Young Master Ward. We, the Ninja House have always been cautious in handling things. Since we’ve failed this time, I will ask my superiors to send another master to remedy the situation. We won’t fail you a second time!”“Fine, you may leave. Take this money to heal your injuries. Remember not to let Harvey York discover your hideout.”Young Master Ward took out a bank card and threw it on the ground.The fake inspector nodded and bowed. He then reached out for the bank card.At this instance, Young Master Ward’s eyes glowed with a sinister light. A firearm appeared in the sleeve of his shirt, which he instantly pressed against the fake inspector’s forehead.“Young Master Ward, why…?”Bang!Without giving the fake inspector any opportunity to speak, Young Master Ward immediately pulled
Slap, slap, slap!In just a few seconds, a dozen subordinates flew from the impact of Harvey’s attacks. They fell to the ground, blood gushing out of their mouths. All their bones were broken.“B*stard! You dare?!”Wyler’s face was icy. He pointed an angry finger at Harvey. “Do you know who I am?”“Do you know the Ward family’s status in Mordu?”“Don’t you dare hurt me!”“Then I’ll try it!” Harvey sneered, giving out another slap. Wyler instantly flew away.Harvey stepped forward and slammed his foot on Wyler’s ribs.Crack!Wyler’s ribs broke, and he rolled on the ground in agony.After that, Harvey turned around indifferently and said, “Go back and tell Samuel that I’ll give him one day to give me an explanation. Otherwise, I’ll destroy all of Longmen!”***Harvey didn’t kill Wyler as he wasn’t in a hurry.That, and he wanted to ascertain the true mastermind behind this incident.Wyler looked cruel and was an off-putting character, but Harvey instantly understood as soon
Durandal and his men froze when they saw what happened, and their expressions darkened. While that long-haired man was frivolous, he was also a martial arts master.Before they could even react, Harvey had already snapped off the man's finger and fed it to the dog. That action was enough to stop Durandal and the others in their tracks, and even managed to silence the angry crowd.No one expected a man called a pretty face to be so brutal and decisive. At that moment, the men from Parkerville could feel the coldness radiating from Harvey. They couldn't stop the fear spreading in their heart."Darn it! How dare you hurt him?!""Do you have a death wish?""We're going to destroy your underground arena!"Everyone from Parkerville was filled with fury, wanting to retaliate. However, Harvey's calm expression was enough to scare them into silence. Durandal, the only person who knew Harvey's real identity, raised his hand to stop them. Then, he shot Harvey a cold look."What is the
"I believe someone outside the ring informed the young boxer. In short, this is no longer a one-versus-one battle! This is two versus one… No, perhaps even more! This isn't fair!"And then, Durandal raised his arm and shouted, "Tell me, friends! Is it against the rule for someone to use a high-tech method to instruct the young fighter in the middle of the match? Should they pay for all our losses?"While no one knew how Durandal could be so sure there was cheating involved, many saw that there was a chance for them to recover their losses. They knew who to support. All of them stood up and started yelling."Cheating! You're cheating!""Pay us! Pay us back!"Durandal continued to raise his arm. "We've already won this battle! However, the underground boxing ring was unable to accept their loss! Other than making them admit it, shouldn't we ask them to pay three times the money?!"All the spectators were excited and chorused brainlessly, "Three times! Three times!"They didn't car
As the Boxing Champion coughed out a mouthful of blood, it seemed to have caused a chain reaction. The blood vessels in his body began to bulge and explode, and blood began to flow out from his body. It was quite terrifying to watch, but from his bloodshot eyes, he seemed to have recovered some sort of clarity.He glared at the young fighter in front of him and collapsed on the ring, his eyes filled with disbelief."Ha… Didn't even break a sweat." The young fighter raised his hand, disdain on his face. His expression was calm, but everyone could see his arrogance."How is that possible?!" At that moment, there was only silence. No one expected the situation would change so quickly. The Boxing Champion had been defeated so quickly, many weren't sure what had happened. This had surpassed everyone's understanding.No matter if the audience was furious or in disbelief, the Boxing Champion had already fallen and the young fighter stood in the middle of the ring with a calm express
Everyone was still filled with mixed expressions as both sides clashed. To the Boxing Champion, he had already won countless fights. There was no need for him to be afraid of a young man.Meanwhile, the young fighter had great confidence. Nothing could shake him.The moment both sides clashed, dust and dirt burst from the floor. Everyone was shocked by their murderous intent.Their fists met. At that instant, they fought in the most brutal and primal way. They kept crashing into each other as they battled. The muted sounds of their attacks could be heard from outside the ring. The ring, though made of solid wood, began to crack open from the impact of their attacks. Everyone watched with bated breath, excitement etched on their faces. No one expected that the young man who looked like he was going to get beaten down in one punch would have so much endurance.It was way too thrilling! Too exciting!The two moved faster and faster. Very quickly, normal people couldn't even see h
When Harvey heard Mandy's agreement to his plan to close down the place, he immediately snapped his finger. A young man smaller and leaner than the Boxing Champion slowly walked out from the back.He wasn't surrounded by a malevolent aura like the Boxing Champion, and he didn't beat his chest like a drum either. He simply waved his hand around in a dull way, like he was only doing this as part of his job. When the spectators saw this, all of them booed.When some of the spectators who were hoping for a chance to turn their luck around saw this, they couldn't help but start to curse.What was the Ninth Branch doing?Why did they pull out a kid like this?Were they getting him killed?Meanwhile, Durandal and the others all glanced at each other before cackling madly. They were all from the Sacred Training Grounds, so they could see the young man was indeed someone special. But no matter how special he was, the difference in power couldn't be so easily overcome.There was only one
One hour later, Harvey once again appeared at the VIP seats. Durandal and the others had been waiting for them. When they saw Harvey appear, they grinned. "One hour is over, pretty boy. Can we start the battle now? Looking at how confident you are, maybe you should consider fighting yourself. If you're willing, I can tell the Boxing Champion to just use one arm."It was obvious that not only did Durandal want to use this chance to test Harvey's power, but he also wanted to get him killed.Harvey smiled. "There's no need for overwhelming firepower. Even your father couldn't make me fight him, let alone your underling."Durandal's eyes turned incredibly cold when he heard that. Just as the atmosphere in the VIP seats was becoming fired up, the atmosphere around the ring was also becoming more tense.They hadn't even fought yet, but both sides were already staring down at each other apprehensively. It would be quite intense once the fight really began.Very quickly, Durandal took a
Harvey ignored all of them, but simply looked at all the fighters. In the end, Harvey's eyes fell on a young man of about eighteen years old. It was obvious he had just come of age, and he had trained his body well. From his physique, Harvey could tell that his martial arts abilities were quite good too.Harvey could tell immediately that the young man probably had an extraordinary upbringing to have such power at such an age. He might be a core student who came out from a Sacred Training Ground to train.Most importantly, the other fighters either looked at Harvey warily or in envy. Only he looked at Harvey peacefully, as if everyone in this world were ordinary people.Harvey gave Maya a look, and Maya quickly introduced him. "Sir, this is a servant that a member of the Ninth Branch picked up from under the bridge. He's mute, but he's extremely loyal. When we realized he has great talent in martial arts, we decided to turn him into a fighter."Harvey narrowed his eyes. What kind
Maya was slightly stunned. However, she had always been very trusting of Harvey. She didn't say anything and quickly prepared the contract.When Durandal saw what was happening, he smiled coldly and immediately signed his name.Just as Harvey was going to sign his name, Mandy's expression turned dark and said, "Harvey, why don't we bet my hand? This is a Ninth Branch affair. It didn't have much to do with you in the first place."Harvey could sense Mandy cared about him and smiled. "Don't worry, I'll be fine. Not to mention, certain things are unavoidable. You and the Ninth Branch are simply taking hits on my behalf. Trust me, I can manage this."Mandy hesitated a little and wanted to say something, but before she could, Durandal already said coldly, "Enough with the mushy nonsense. If you can't take a wager like this, I'm more than happy to let you both lick my boots a hundred times. After that, we'll call it even!"Harvey patted Mandy's shoulder and picked up the pen to sign his
"Your underlings are either Boxing Champions or Sword Champions. While they all sounded terrifying and their names quite stylish, and sound like they can defeat everyone that stands before them…" Harvey began coolly."Everything you did is so you can take all of the Ninth Branch's money, isn't it? If that's the case, why waste everyone's time? Let's do it decisively. We'll settle everything in one go. Of course, if you're scared, you can tell me too. I won't force you."Harvey shook his head and looked at Mandy. "This is boring, Mandy. Let's go, he's just a coward. I wonder where this spoiled brat comes from? He's scared of getting smacked by his own hand if he loses a few pennies. There's no need to waste time with people like this."When Mandy heard it, she said, "That's right. There's no need to waste time with rubbish."Durandal smiled coldly when he heard how they were mocking him. "No need for such sarcasm. I'm telling you right now, I'm not afraid of playing a game like th
