“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.
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
