“Wyler? What happened to you?!”“Move, step aside!”The members of the Ward family within Longmen showed up. A beautiful woman in an exquisite dress was leading the group, an anxious expression on her face. She appeared to be extremely distressed.She was none other than Wyler’s own mother, Josie Lopez.But Longmen’s branch leader from Mordu, Josh, seemed quite calm. He did not even show up.Josie rushed toward the scene of the incident. She saw Wyler, who was covered in blood, next to Harvey, who was standing calmly. Her expression instantly darkened.“Wyler, what happened to you?”“Why are you bleeding from your head?”“Why are there palm prints on your face?!”Josie jumped up in anger.“Whoever dared to hit my son, show yourself! I’ll kill you!”“Mother, save me! Save me!”A sly look flashed on Wyler’s face for a split second the moment his mother showed up, as if his plan was a success.“Harvey did this to me!”“He was the one who broke my rib cage last night!”“He c
The Ward family had seen arrogant people before during their time back in Mordu, but even then, they had never seen arrogance to this extent!“He’s so full of himself! He doesn’t even care about the law!”“Even Sheldon Xavier wouldn’t be this conceited!”“Looks like he’s not here to apologize today. He’s here to fight us to the death!”“We must ask the master of Longmen to serve justice!”“We should make people like him regret being born in this world!”Wyler grinned maliciously as he listened to the crowd’s constant insults against Harvey.“Harvey York, you’re too young to test me!”Harvey remained indifferent, never giving a clear reply. Tyson wanted to reply in his stead, but he simply smiled and stopped the latter, as if he was busy enjoying a monkey play.Wyler felt a shiver up his spine when he saw Harvey’s faint smile. A gust of cold immediately rushed toward his head.Josie could not hold back her feelings any longer at Harvey’s infuriatingly calm demeanor. She pointe
The Wards had already planned for this to happen.Why would they allow Tyson’s words, that held no weight, to affect the bigger picture?“Alright! Enough of this nonsense!”Josie glared at Harvey and snarled, “Harvey York! You must pay the price of daring to lay a finger on my precious son. You have no choice but to admit what you did, even if you refuse to!”“I have no choice?”Harvey chuckled.“Lady Lopez, is your family alright? You have so many people here making such a big scene just to frame me for slapping Wyler and insulting the Ward family?”“Aren’t you all just a little too narrow-minded?”The crowd all froze. They couldn’t understand the implication behind Harvey’s words.“Why don’t I help you out on this? Let’s cause a bigger scene! Then, you’ll understand what it means to look at the broader picture!”“Listen, Tyson. I’ll give you another lesson today. Against bastards like them, it’s useless to be reasonable.” After Harvey was done talking, he moved his body a
“Wyler!”“My dear Wyler!”Josie came to her senses and started screaming her lungs out.“Damn you, Harvey York! Damn you!”“Kill him! Kill him now! I want him buried with my son!”At this point, Josie had lost all rationale. She immediately gave the order to the Ward family’s professionals.The crowd that had gathered there to watch a spectacle swiftly fled at the sound of her order. None of them wanted to be dragged into the situation, should it escalate into anything much worse.Several high authorities of the Ward family exchanged glances before pulling out their weapons and immediately rushing toward Harvey.Their blades glinted maliciously in the light as their murderous intent suffocated the air. They were prepared to cut Harvey down then and there.Schwing, schwing, schwing!The roar of the blades were everywhere. The speed of the Longmen disciples was inhuman.Tyson was unable to get closer to Harvey. “CEO York, look out!”Tyson took out his blade from the sheath on
Josh was filled with fury and sowwor. He desired Harvey’s blood to relieve his anger!But Harvey was as indifferent as always, and he didn’t bother to give Josh a proper reply. “Then, I’ll send you to your grave!”Two Great Generals rushed out from both sides toward Harvey, aiming for the kill.But as they appeared before Harvey, his sword gleamed brightly.An instance later, they fell unconscious to the ground, clutching their throats.Harvey stepped forward with ease and slashed downward.Josh pulled out a dagger from his sleeve. He brandished the dagger and rushed toward Harvey.Clang!Josh and Harvey clashed violently. Harvey remained standing still, but Josh ended up coughing out a mouthful of blood before he was sent flying a good distance away.The sight dumbfounded the crowd.‘How is this possible?!’‘Josh Ward, who claimed to have extraordinary strength, can’t even block a single hit from Harvey?’Josh’s face displayed an utterly horrible expression. He was in disb
Harvey moved his body and reappeared at the centre of the crowd consisting of Ward family members.This time, he did not use his sword. He would only use his palm.Soon, a string of slaps could be heard. The remaining members of the Ward family were sent flying, along with the Four Great Generals. When they landed on the ground, they choked out more air than they could breathe it.The entire Ward family was no match against Harvey.“Useless.”Harvey’s expression was as calm as ever.“If the entirety of Longmen is without any talent other than showing off and bullying citizens, like this, it’s better if all of them are destroyed.”“You…!”Josh could hear not only Harvey disrespecting the Ward family, but also the entirety of Longmen. As a proud disciple of Longmen, he was so infuriated what remaining blood he had started to flow upstream.Blood started gushing out of his throat the next moment. His head fell sideways, and he breathed his last. The place fell into dead silenc
Samuel raised his head slowly. After sizing up Harvey, he smiled.“I wonder if you brought such a big gift today to ask for my crimes, or if you’re prepared to give me a fair statement.”The aides next to Samuel shook in fear and awe at his words.Naturally, they did not think that such a domineering and headstrong man like Samuel would be this casual in front of Harvey.Harvey was the man who killed an entire family of three outside, after all!He had dishonored Samuel! He was trampling on the dignity of the entirety of Longmen!Harvey remained nonchalant about the situation. He did not bother giving Samuel a proper answer.“A fair statement? The Ward family joined forces with the Island Nations Ninja House to frame and assassinate me. Aren’t you going to give me a fair statement about this, master of Longmen?”Samuel replied calmly, “I’ve already warned you a few days ago, CEO York. Mordu’s in a complicated situation right now, and someone from the Island Nations is lending a
“An Island Nation swordsman?”Harvey frowned.Samuel grinned. “This man here is indeed an Island Nation swordsman. He owns a kendo hall in Mordu. He teaches kendo in public, but in secret, he’s been doing heinous things nobody was privy to.”“Did Josh hire him?”“That’s right. Look at it as two birds with one stone. He planned to have this swordsman challenge you to a duel to the death if I didn’t kill you.”“If you lose, you die. If you win, you’ll cause more trouble for yourself and attract other Island Nation swordsmen.”Harvey narrowed his eyes without saying a word.Five disciples of Longmen emerged from the shadows, all of them brandishing long swords.The Island Nation swordsman touched the long blade strapped on his waist. The next moment., a bright light shone.The disciples trembled. Seconds later they fell to the ground, clutching their throats.Their faces showed resentment and disbelief, as they never imagined this man could be so powerful.“Island Nation Kendo.
"That's right!" exclaimed Geoffrey. "You should come down now or let him get closer to check up on you!""Geoffrey, Neve. We have known each other for so many years. I know you don't want me to leave," replied Vaida, sighing. "But, do you think I'll believe you when you look for a random man to be my man of destiny? If a fake can replace the one I seek, I won't be trying to find him for three lifetimes, right?"Please, just ignore me and let me go in peace. Even if you can save me now, can you save me forever?"Obviously, while Vaida had a mental breakdown, she no longer recognized Harvey and forgot what had happened between them, but she was still a wise woman. She could tell that Geoffrey and Neve dragged Harvey here so that she would not die."Vaida! Don't forget that you're the daughter of the previous mayor! In my heart, you’re the real princess of Grand City!" Geoffrey roared. "I swore to him all those years ago that I would find the man of your destiny. I won't lie about som
"No! There is! Not only are you fated to cross paths, but such a fate is inevitable!" Geoffrey suddenly cried out. "Vaida, I managed to do as promised and found the man who is your destiny when I went to Wolsing last time! That's him! He's the man of your destiny! I won't have any objection even if you want to make your marriage official!"Geoffrey immediately rushed over to Harvey and pushed Harvey to Vaida. Harvey was stunned when he heard it, his eye twitching.What?Something about being the man of her destiny?Geoffrey did not give Harvey any time to react and winked at Harvey. "Mr. Representative, why don't you go speak with Vaida? The two of you promised to be together for three lifetimes before the Rock of Fate! You shouldn't miss each other now that you've been reunited!"When Harvey heard what Geoffrey had said, he was full of questions. Although he could understand every word, he did not understand what Geoffrey meant by that. Even Neve was so shocked that she subconsci
After Geoffrey had left, Harvey then walked into the courtyard. He looked around. Once he was sure there were no hidden cameras, he got into the bathroom and showered. Then, he changed into a new outfit.Too many things happened while he was on his way here, and he had to review everything. Only then would he be able to see the big picture of what had happened today.After that, he found the beverages meant for him. Then, he walked to the courtyard's edge, looking at the faraway scenery. The courtyard was built by the hills and a water source. In addition to the bridges and streams, he could see the plains in the mountains. He could even see the grass swaying as the wind blew.At the edge of the grassy plains were steep cliffs. The Fosters had built several gazebo-like structures there, which were quite terrifying. Harvey was curious and gave these cliffs a better look. That should be the edge of Grand City. He could see an endless ocean with crashing waves from here.Harvey could
Harvey saw Geoffrey already waiting there when he alighted the car. When Geoffrey saw Harvey, he was apologetic about the entire matter. Harvey did not need to say anything, and Geoffrey walked over, saying, "Friend… No, Mr. Representative. We will give you an explanation that you'll be happy with."Feel free to stay in the Foster family's estate. If anything happens again, you do not need to say anything. Our family will take full responsibility for this!"Harvey sighed. "There's no need for this, Geoffrey. My visit to Grand City will affect plenty of people's interests. It's normal for them to try and stop me from coming no matter what.""It's not that you're affecting many people's interests. Most importantly, you have affected one faction's interests," Geoffrey said as he gestured and led Harvey into the estate. As he guided Harvey in, he said, "The entire Grand City now knows your reason for coming to Grand City is to take on the Three Halls. What you're doing is taking away
Harvey smiled. "It's fine. But you do have to give me an explanation. Of course, if you can't, I'll get one myself."After that, Harvey could not be bothered with the same topic. He looked at the stone door and asked, "Why don't you introduce this to me?"Neve was slightly taken aback but still answered, "You know that Grand City does not belong in this world. In short, it exists in its own pocket dimension. It was said that Grand City's creator created this pocket dimension after he had achieved unison with Nature and before he stepped into the void."This is one of the few entrances into the Grand City, but it's the only entrance that everyone from the city can use. If you have the city's entry pass, then you can freely travel in and out. Of course, if your ancestry is rooted in Grand City, you can also use it."Harvey nodded. He was quite curious… When one reached the end of the path of martial arts and reached unity between man and nature, would one have this kind of power? Cou
No matter how Harvey looked at Vaida, he could tell she was no ordinary warrior. Her decisiveness and style proved to him that she was highly experienced in battles. He could even see some signs of her being in the military.Harvey was even more curious about Vaida's identity when he thought of that.But he knew it was not the time to think about such things. Harvey picked up a gun from the ground amidst the chaos and started to aim and shoot in front of him.If Vaida's attacks were all about affecting a wide area, then Harvey's attacks were all about accuracy. While he looked casual, whenever he pulled the trigger, an enemy would flop in a crumpled mess after each shot. The long-haired man could only watch with a dark expression.Despite bringing along an army of assassins with heavy firepower, his forces were being decimated."Darn it…!" The long-haired man let out a roar. "Deploy the heavy weapons!"Before he could finish yelling, he shuddered. There was disbelief in his eyes.
After eliminating Ruins and Ashes, Harvey did not waste another second, slammed his foot into a table, and sent it flying with a smile. Contrary to everyone's expectation, he did not leave the fire escape. Instead, he jumped out of a window and immediately ruined the long-haired man's plans.However, it was obvious that there were guards outside the window as well. As soon as they saw Harvey appear, the armed men were only slightly stunned before they aimed their guns at Harvey and pulled their triggers.Harvey immediately side-stepped, grabbed the fire extinguisher the cafe prepared for an emergency, and started spraying it all around him. Half the street was instantly covered in white as the bullets missed their marks, but several tourists who did not manage to escape in time were hit. The tourists cried, and it simply made the assassins even more aggressive.In just a short while, all these people would lose their lives.Harvey's eyes turned cold when he realized how nonchalant
However, before the Islander woman could swing her sword down, she could feel a sharp pain on her throat as a red dot appeared. Then, she could even feel all her strength disappear. She collapsed to the ground in disbelief, unable to make a sound. It was obvious that this woman could not understand how she was killed even moments before she died.The waiters and tourists only realized what was happening when they saw this moment. They screamed as they quickly ran toward the exits, throwing the entire Lucky Café into chaos. Harvey ignored all the chaos, picked up the sword from the woman's hand, and continued walking with a calm expression. At this time, a long-robed man and woman walked toward him among the crowds. Both of them looked quite strange. The man was missing an ear, while the woman was missing an eye. However, their energy signatures were terrifying, and they seemed very powerful."It's the Golden Triangle's assassin duo, Ruins and Ashes!""I heard the two could even de
While Hyperborea was a small city, as it was located on the nape of Snowdrake Mountain, it was also one of the most famous tourist cities in the country. Around 30 million travelers came to Hyperborea throughout the year, enriching their economies. However, it was somewhat difficult to manage the city.More than 90 percent of the population here came from other cities. So, it was going to be difficult to find anything about anyone.Besides being a tourist city, Hyperborea was also a location where people from all walks of life congregate.Harvey glanced around as he sat in the corner. He noticed that other than travelers, most of the people here were foreigners who spoke with foreign accents. Many of them carried firearms in secret, and some were obviously trained in martial arts. This place was destined to be different from other cities.While it was a tourist city on the surface, this place hid an entire underworld.'No wonder Grand City set its entrance in a place like this. It
