Harvey York smiled and said indifferently after looking at Lucas Jean’s brazen expression, “I believe that you truly aren’t afraid of death. I also think that torturing you will have no effect.“But I’m much more aware that your heart is full of reluctance.After listening to this, Lucas’s eyelids twitched, and his expression turned awful.It was just as Harvey said. His heart was full of reluctance.He was one of the Six Princes of Mordu. Moreover, he still had many connections and many hidden cards that he could use.He truly believed that the odds were even with his arrangement if he went head-to-head with Harvey. The winner was still yet to be known.However, he came after Kait Walker today. Thus, he did not bring many people with him.Furthermore, he had arranged most of his men at the branch of Longmen. He initially planned to go all out in helping Justin Walker to take over the position of the branch leader today.All this also led to the lack of defense on his side, cou
“Prince Jean, I have to admit that your luck is pretty good.”Harvey York took the revolver and chuckled. Then, he fired another shot at his temple with his right hand.A blank.However, Lucas Jean’s expression instantly changed once again.Harvey gave a puff on the revolver. He then smiled and said nonchalantly, “It seems that my luck is also very good.”Lucas’ pupils contracted when Harvey handed over the revolver to him this time.The hand he used to pick up the revolver again was trembling slightly.The person who invented the revolver back then might have never expected that someone would actually use it to play such a terrible game.Such a game was a real test for a person’s self-confidence, tolerance, and character.Only fearless people would dare to pull the trigger casually.At least, from Lucas’ point of view, he certainly lost to Harvey in this regard.Harvey could pull the trigger casually, even more pulling it twice. However, he could not do it.He certainly di
Clack!The last shot resounded. It was still a blank. Harvey York remained unscathed. However, Lucas Jean’s right hand shook violently, and the muscles on his face kept twitching.“You!“How dare you fool me?!“B*stard!“You are toying with me!”Lucas was furious at this moment. He instantly understood that there were no bullets in the firearm.This was a game that Harvey set up from beginning to end. A game that allowed him to see his incompetence and fear clearly.Harvey looked indifferent. He then stretched out his right hand and snatched Lucas’ neck with a faint smile on his face.“Prince Jean, it’s too bad.“Whether you pull the last trigger at yourself or kneel to beg me for mercy, I won’t kill you.“But you disappointed me too much.“You also let me know clearly that people like you don’t care about the rules of the game.“If I don’t kill you today, then what awaits me tomorrow would be your bloody revenge.“So, I shall end you now, Prince Jean.“From today onward
There was ample open space inside the gate, and a huge ring was located in the middle.The ring was surrounded by seats, making this place look like a small gymnasium.Hundreds of people were present from both sides, adding up to a thousand people. It was very rowdy, plus both sides were enemies, which made this place like a powder keg that might explode at any time.There were a lot of bloodstains in the middle of the ring at this moment. Both sides should have been fighting several rounds.Two people were fighting each other in the ring right now.One party was using a sword, whereas the other party was using a long sword. Sparks were flickering when the two confronted each other using their swords.Harvey squinted over and saw that Tyson Woods was the person in the ring.This king of the streets of South Light, who had always been dawdling, was smoking and swinging his sword at the same time.His swordsmanship had the essence of the Sword Camp, without any fancy skills, but
Harvey York instantly understood that his men must have efficiently cleaned up the mess in the Walker Mansion as soon as he thought of this.Thus, many people still did not know that Lucas Jean was dead at this moment.Angelina John also noticed him. She walked over with her long legs and said with a half-smile, “Isn’t this Young Master York?”“I heard that you went to the Walker Mansion and made a fuss there this morning and was asked to stay behind by Prince Jean. I didn’t expect you to be alive. Congratulations.”Angelina stared at Harvey’s face carefully when she said this, trying to find out if anything was strange with him.She knew it was difficult to deal with Harvey after confronting him several times.Lucas was supposed to have killed him today. However, he showed up unscathed on this occasion at this moment. This actually raised a lot of questions.Harvey looked at this woman with great interest.This morning, he left in a hurry and did not have time to bother about
Harvey York coldly glanced over at Angelina John and her female companions.“Are you done yapping?”“If you’re done, then step aside.”Kait Walker did not know what Harvey was about to do, but she did not stop him.Angelina then gave Harvey an odd look, then quietly exclaimed, “Stop fooling around, Sir York. This isn’t a place for you to be involved.“So what if you know about my secret?“The secret doesn’t even pose a threat to Justin Walker!“You’re dreaming if you still want to stop him from rising to power!Angelina knew Justin too well.Justin was determined to take the position as the new branch leader.That was why he would certainly get what he wanted that day. If anyone were to stop him from doing so, he would not stop until he killed them off.Harvey focused his gaze toward Justin’s direction. The man, who killed his own wife to remove himself from temptations, was squinting while looking at the ring. Nothing else seemed to have moved him.Harvey faintly smiled af
On the ring.Along with the swing of Tyson Woods’ sword followed by a bright light, the chest of the Longmen disciple in front of him spurt out a splash of blood, then immediately fell to the ground paralyzed.They were fighting in the ring, not playing pretend. Their victory or defeat would naturally mean life or death.So far, Justin Walker had lost five matches in a row.He had one remaining member fighting for him.But Justin was not showing any hint of discouragement at that moment. He sized up Tyson while his interest piqued, then lightly waved his hand after a moment. Swooooosh!A man, who was about six foot five, slowly appeared from the passageway and jumped on the ring.“Next match, Tyson Woods versus Eugene Bowie!”The crowd went wild after hearing Eugene’s name.Eugene, Justin’s top Great General, was also the greatest disciple within Mordu’s Longmen branch!A man like him had an extremely high reputation within Mordu’s Longmen branch.He was hidden away in the
“Die!”Eugene Bowie let out a trembling cry as if it were a lion’s legendary roar.Eugene’s cry replaced the clamor amongst the crowd. The host even coughed out a mouthful of blood and almost passed out.Angelina John and her companions turned pale out of sheer fear. Some could not even control their bowels.Rachel Hardy and Aiden Bauer looked at each other and saw the shock in each other’s eyes.They knew that Eugene was strong, but they did not expect he was this strong.On the other hand, Justin Walker was smiling from cheek to cheek. The more shocking Eugene’s entrance was, the more it showed that Justin had countless others just like Eugene under his wing. Justin would be considered the best pick as the branch leader.Eugene cut off Tyson’s readiness. His body slightly trembled, seeming somewhat distraught.Fwoooosh!Eugene was decisive, swinging his axe down in an instant as soon as he had the advantage. He walked forward with an aura filled with murderous intent, natura
Just when Harvey did not know how to respond, Vaida suddenly walked into the cockpit from behind. First, she glared at Harvey, then responded with Ellena's solemn voice. "It's done."When the person heard this voice, it was obvious that the man heaved a sigh of relief. "Land the plane on the last runway near the edge, then retreat immediately. Remember, don't leave any unfinished business behind. Our conversation is over." Then, the tone became engaged before it was completely cut off.Meanwhile, Harvey quickly took control of the plane's yoke and landed the plane successfully on the runway. The plane landed successfully. However, with one look outside, he suddenly frowned and said, "Something's not right. Go!"Then, Harvey dragged Vaida along with him and ran to the plane's emergency door. He opened the door and immediately jumped out.At this time, all the passengers in the first-class cabin finally got hold of themselves and started screaming and yelling. Instantaneously, the en
All the other passengers could only watch the sudden turn of events with mouths agape. It was as if they could not believe just how terrifying Vaida was. Even Harvey narrowed his eyes. He already knew that Vaida was a powerful martial artist and one that was close to losing control. But only now did he realize that the woman was trained in the legendary Basilisk Palm.It was a unique martial art from the tribes. While it was not exceptionally powerful, it was extremely venomous. Just one strike could make an elite like Ellena from Servitas lose power and control of her body, explaining just how terrifying this technique was.Before Harvey could say anything, Vaida had already picked up the revolver on the ground and immediately fired at her arms and legs. Then, she dislocated Ellena's jaw, making sure that Ellena could not kill herself no matter what.Vaida's directness made Ellena's eyes filled with rage. She could not believe that she still lost despite being in a situation wher
Ellena's expression was one of enjoyment and glee when she saw Vaida kicked Harvey, and even took a few slaps from her.Ellena finally felt she had her revenge after the humiliation she suffered at the Fosters a few days ago. The worse Harvey's condition, the happier she was.Harvey finally managed to get a hold of himself and stopped Vaida, saying in a cold voice. "Are you stupid? The person you should be dealing with is the criminal that's trying to kill you and not me, a victim!""Victim? To all of us, you're the real criminal!" Vaida roared. "I'm just heading home to visit family! Why do I have to be on the same flight as you? You're going to get us all killed! You're some representative, right? Aren't you supposed to fight for the people? Why don't you just die already? If you don't, how can you face us?"Vaida was looking at Harvey, gritting her teeth. It was obvious that if looks could kill, Harvey would have already died countless times. All the passengers were also riled u
"All you need to do is to sever your own tendons right before me and then jump off the plane. I guarantee that I will get all these people landed safely," answered Ellena with a sneer. "If you can't do it, it's fine. One hour will slowly pass by. Let's waste each other's time. You can taste your regrets, I suppose. Regretting the fact that you instigated me in the first place…"Ellena's words at this point sounded so calm, as if she had truly accepted her inevitable death. All the passengers' expressions turned pale when they saw her speak with such expression. Vaida's face was so pale that she looked like a ghost."Please, no, ma'am! We did nothing to you! Why must you kill us too?""That's right! We can give you anything we have! Do you want money? Do you want properties? We have them all! But please spare us!""It's not that simple trying to kill him with a revolver. It only looks easy," Ellena said with a sigh. "This is the representative of the Country H Martial Arts Alliance.
Harvey nodded at Ellena. "True. That's my mistake. But I'm curious: why are you all so obsessed with trying to kill me? Is it because I'm here to take over the Three Halls? Or is it because I'm the representative? Or is it because I humiliated Grand City at the Forbidden Wasteland? Or maybe it's because I'm going to help Sienna break her engagement?"Then, Ellena replied coldly, "Why are you so curious? Does it even benefit you? I don't want you to die knowing why. When you die, the more clueless you are, the happier it will make me."Harvey nodded. "I can understand that you want to kill me. But the problem is, so many innocent people are involved. Why must you involve them as well? Not to mention, if you do this, it'll not bring you any praise. It will most likely sully your reputation instead. Do you want yourself to be remembered with a tarnished reputation that much?"After hearing Harvey's words, Ellena looked at all the passengers and said, "Whether my reputation is good or b
Ellena smiled when she saw she had the entire cabin under her control. "This is connected to my heart. Whether my heart stopped or the timer reached zero, it would explode. That's why I believe you should be able to chat with me while remaining calm, right?"All the passengers in the first-class cabin felt that they would faint soon after hearing what Ellena said. Vaida, who was the calmest among them, also narrowed her eyes. They were on a plane. And then, there was a timed bomb that was connected to her heart. This was a puzzle with no clear answer.Not to mention, Ellena was armed with a revolver and maintained a safe distance between Vaida and Harvey. It was as if she could pull the trigger at any time.Fortunately, there was enough distance between the first-class and economy-class cabins. Otherwise, just the gun alone was enough to make all the passengers in the plane lose their minds.Harvey sighed. He knew Ellena was using the hundreds of innocent lives on this plane to bla
"I'm sorry, but it really wasn't intentional…" Harvey apologized to Vaida. Just as he was going to explain himself, he heard a creak. The door leading to the cockpit that was supposed to be shut tight was left open, with the scent of blood coming from inside.Before Harvey and Vaida could react, a woman in a pilot uniform walked over with a calm expression. Although her uniform was dotted with blood spatters, her aura and haughtiness in her eyes remained intense.Then, she removed her face mask and smirked at Harvey. "Good morning, Mr. Representative. We meet again…"Harvey's eyes narrowed; he seemed mildly surprised.It was Ellena.Speak of the Devil…At the same time, Harvey also gave Ellena a better evaluation. Although it took her a lot of effort to escape by leaving behind a decoy, she was now right in front of him and greeting him out in the open. This not only proved how mad she was but also strengthened her confidence in cornering Harvey.Harvey looked at Ellena nonchala
Originally, Harvey thought that since they met each other thanks to Fate, he wanted to give some pointers to Vaida. However, from her attitude, Harvey could ascertain that she would not believe him no matter what he said. If that was the case, he didn't want to waste his time on someone who wasn't appreciative.The flight continued for about two hours. Their journey was only half done. Harvey stretched his back and sipped his sparkling water a few times. Then, he took out his tablet, connected to the plane's Wi-Fi, and checked his emails.Instantly, several emails were sent to his private email.Yvonne had already handled all kinds of business at Sky Corporation. She also mentioned receiving news that Sienna seemed to have gone to Grand City last night, but she could not confirm the veracity of that news.That piece of news was enough to make Harvey slightly frown.Another news story was that Rachel, whom Harvey had made arrangements for, had already arrived at Hyperborea. She was
Next morning.Harvey packed out a few outfits and then took a flight to Hyperborea. "I didn't expect the entrance to Grand City would be located on the peak of Hyperborea. From Wolsing, it would take around four hours, which meant I would arrive around noon. If everything goes well with the entry pass, I should be able to enter Grand City by two o'clock."Then, I will have to spend the whole afternoon taking over the three halls. After that, I need to help Sienna break her engagement… Wait, why did I even agree to help Sienna with the engagement? That way, doesn't it look like both of us have some secret relationship? Especially to the outsiders?" Harvey was speechless as he sat in his first-class flight seat.Typically speaking, he should not have gone to Grand City when there were so many unsettled things. But he had no choice but to come over when so many things were happening simultaneously.That being said, Harvey felt confident that Yvonne would handle all the matters in Wols
