Right when everyone was seated, something awkward happened.The seats were full, but Harvey had no place for him.“Oh, if it isn’t Harvey York! The hero that made great achievements for the company!”“I couldn’t even recognize you if you weren’t standing there!”Steven chuckled, not moving a muscle.“But are you supposed to be here, Harvey? I don’t think we invited you at all. We didn’t get you a seat, either.”“Why don’t you get out of here for now, and stop bothering everyone?”The internet-famous beauties smirked coldly at Steven’s words.‘Doesn’t this bodyguard know what he’s capable of?’‘He’s not supposed to be in a high class place like Paramount, anyway.’‘He doesn’t know when to get out even after knowing that there aren’t any seats for him. Why is he just standing there? Does he think he’s a model or something?’Yvonne frowned and replied, “Young Master Walker, right? Harvey’s here to protect me. If he doesn’t have a seat here, I’ll be leaving as well.”“Oh? You’r
Thinking about the situation, Harvey said, “Young Master Walker, that Islander isn’t just an ordinary man.” “I think we should gather at another place.” “Tonight’s a banquet to treat Young Master Duncan. Let’s not cause more trouble.”“Not an ordinary man? What exactly do you mean by that?”Steven was a bit scared at first, but Harvey’s words were akin to a caffeine injection directly into his bloodstream.“He’s just an Islander pig! What can he do?”“My uncle’s the vice branch leader of Mordu’s Longmen!”“Disciples of Longmen will come to my aid with just a single call, so don’t worry about it!”“Even if there’s no one else, I’m also a disciple of Longmen myself!”“We no longer live in olden times anymore, Harvey. It’s not like the era when we used to kneel to our invaders!”“You have to stand up for yourself!”“You’re just a country bumpkin, anyway. I understand if you’re afraid of powerful people.”“But the Islanders…”“Let’s not talk way far back. Didn’t they get bea
“Ignore that filth, Yvonne. Come here and sit beside Young Master Duncan.”“He’s here to protect you, no matter whatever happens next!”As everyone was busy insulting Harvey, Hazel took the chance to drag Yvonne to sit next to Garry. “Look at you, always being protected by Young Master Duncan.”“As a host, aren’t you supposed to down a drink for him?”“Finish the beer and sing a song!”“Let me tell you right now, Young Master Duncan is an expert at this! His singing’s way better than a bunch of newbies!”“I don’t think there’s a lot of opportunities for anyone to hear him sing! You’re pretty lucky, Yvonne.”Hazel tried her hardest to get Yvonne and Garry closer. Naturally, she didn’t want Harvey to have such an outstanding woman.“You’re being too kind, Ms. Malone. I should be the one giving Ms. Xavier a toast.”“After all, she’s the one who gave me the chance to earn some more money and to fight a true professional. That’s what I wanted my entire life. That’s why I should b
In the next moment, a dozen men in karate robes walked in.Although they were not tall, all of them looked very strong, and they had unique tattoos that only people from the streets of Island Nation had on their bodies.Harvey York glanced around and could see that those people were all masters of the Island Nation.There was an Islander who was badly beaten behind them, which was Kubomura Akane, who had just been chased away.“Boss, these Chinese, they are the ones who beat me up!“They don’t have honor!”Kubomura pointed at Steven Walker and the others while speaking with a bitter expression on his face.Immediately afterward, an Islander man with a feminine face and cold temperament slowly walked forward.His height was close to 1.7 meters, which was considered tall among Islanders.Moreover, he exuded an aura that only the nobles of the Island Nation would have. Meanwhile, he held a sake cup in his hand and carefully stared at Steven while drinking. He then sneered, “Inter
A crisp sound came out. The Islander man was unable to dodge and was slapped by Garry Duncan and backed away a few steps. Moreover, he felt dizzy, and his head buzzed.Garry then slapped him again with his backhand even before the Islander man could react.Slap!This slap made the Islander man’s teeth fly out.After giving the two slaps, Garry casually took the tissue paper on the table and wiped his hand. He then said coldly, “I have provoked you now. So?”The Islander man covered his face and was stunned for a while.He had a fairly high status in the Shindan Way Dojo. When had he been insulted like this?He then looked at Garry with an incredulous expression on his face at this moment. He snarled, “B*stard!“How dare you hit me?“Do you know who I am?“Come! Help me kill this b*stard!”More than a dozen Islander men around him in karate robes moved simultaneously and attacked Garry following his order.Bang, bang, bang!Even if Garry acted pretentiously, his reputation
“It’s just that before asking them to come, you’d better tell them that the Mixed Martial Arts Champion is here. We’ll see if they even dare to show up!”Garry Duncan was in high spirits, standing with his hands on his back at this moment, like an undefeated God of War with an invincible demeanor.Jiro Akano sneered and then spoke through the phone, “Brother, I got beaten up!“The location is…”Seeing the other party has started rallying people, Hazel Malone became nervous at this moment. “Young Master Duncan, will this make things worse? After all, they are powerful people…”Yvonne Xavier, who was on the side, also slightly frowned and said, “Let’s stay out of trouble. Let’s go.”Harvey York looked indifferent. He just watched this scene with great interest.He was very interested in the so-called finest sword of Shindan Way.He wanted to see where the confidence of those Islanders came from, daring to do however they pleased in Mordu.“Miss Malone, Miss Xavier, do we need to
Jiro Akano was extremely arrogant at this moment. He then stepped forward, pointed to Garry Duncan’s nose, and yelled, “How dare you hit me? You definitely don’t know where you stand. If I don’t kill you today, I’ll write my name, Jiro Akano, upside down!“For the man, break all his limbs. As for the girls, tie them up and send them to my house!“Beautiful ladies are great!“I want to see how arrogant this group of swine would act in front of the sacred Islanders today!”Jiro Akano pointed to Garry and gritted his yellow teeth. “Especially this b*stard, I’m going to send you deep down the river and let you know the consequences of provoking me!”Jiro Akano was very confident at this moment. He instantly vented his anger after being punched in the face.“What happened?”Meanwhile, several people came out from behind the crowd.The leading one was an Islander with a physique close to 1.75 meters. He was wearing a white suit and was surrounded by a group of people, with a stern lo
Hazel Malone’s eloquent gesture was as if her identity as an influencer really made her look like she was a member of the upper circle.Most importantly, she was actually terrified at that moment.Although Garry Duncan was highly skilled, there were so many opponents, and all of them were masters.Hazel thought it would be better to spend thousands of dollars just to settle the matter.“Hazel Malone? Influencer?”Ryo Akano gave a derisive look.“A person who acted coquettishly on the internet, do you think you deserve my respect?“Moreover, it has nothing to do with pride. There is only right and wrong in this matter.“Anyone who has done something wrong must admit their mistakes!“Those who hit me will have to pay the price.“Just kneel and apologize now while I’m in a good mood. I may consider doing things a little more lenient.”“Kneel and apologize?” Garry suddenly stood up straight at this moment. Then, he raised his head and squinted at Ryo Akano, “The finest sword of
The security guards at the entrance finally reacted to what was happening. They started to call for reinforcements when they saw Yvonne's sportscar was stopped.The range rovers' doors were kicked open, and dozens of men and women clad in traditional Country H's garbs got out. The one leading them was a square-jawed man with a deep scar on his face. It was obvious he had survived a terrible battle against death once.He ignored all the security guards and quickly approached Harvey and Yvonne."Stop them!" Yvonne called out. She pushed the door open and got out of the car. "Who are you? What do you want?"The security guards from Sky Corporation quickly ran over. Dozens of people had started to gather around Harvey. In terms of numbers, they were finally able at an equal level.In truth, anyone from the other side should be able to easily defeat the bodyguards from Sky Corporation. Harvey, who knew this very clearly, also opened the door and walked to Yvonne's side. He looked at th
After Harvey was done with the Ninth Branch and sent Mandy home, he left. Mandy had shown him that she cared, but there were a lot of problems between them. They didn't even have to look for it—Lilian's existence alone was a constant thorn in their eyes. Unless Lilian chose to stop being a problem, Harvey had no interest in becoming the Zimmer family's son-in-law again. After leaving the Zimmer family, Harvey wasn't in a rush to go home. Instead, he went to Sky Corporation's HQ. He was surprised to see that the light in the CEO's office was still lit.Harvey arrived at the door and saw a beautiful woman still working quietly at the desk. He had just wanted to go in before hearing Yvonne's voice. It sounded like she was on a call. "Investigate it. We have to investigate this no matter what! Even if he's not going to ask about it right now, we still have to do it. What will happen if Mr. York wants to blame someone?"After that, Yvonne hung up."What happened?" Harvey asked as h
Durandal raised his eyebrow when he heard Harvey's provocation. He was quite shocked that Harvey was able to see through everything with such ease, but he didn't show much of it. He simply said coldly, "No one can order me around. I simply didn't like you. So? Go on! Kill me if you're really as powerful as you make it sound."Harvey sighed. "I'm trying to talk some sense into you, but you refuse to listen to reason. I never said I wanted your life. All I want is your hand. Since you refused to choose the option I'm giving you, I suppose I'm going to take what's mine."Harvey took a step forward, grabbed Durandal's right hand, and then twisted it.Snap!There was a snap, and Durandal's right arm was twisted into an irregular shape. Durandal suppressed the pain inside of him, but he was also quite shocked. He never expected that, despite being a superior martial artist, he would be completely useless when facing Harvey. The moment Harvey attacked, forget resisting—he didn't even
Durandal and his men's faces changed when they saw how calm Harvey was. They looked at Harvey with shock. It was obvious they didn't realize that Harvey had already made all sorts of preparations. He was ready to set them up all along—all he needed was for them to be in position.Meanwhile, Mandy and the rest of the Ninth Branch's senior members looked enlightened. They finally realized why Harvey was so confident. He had already found out the Boxing Champion's weakness!Meanwhile, the young fighter was also very prideful. Once he knew his opponent's weakness, he would do everything he could to become victorious.In short, this was not just a mere match. Before both sides began fighting, both sides had already planned and executed their strategies.Durandal's eyes narrowed. He didn't continue to verbally defend himself, and simply glared at Harvey. "I didn't expect that you've got quite the brain…"Harvey smiled. "I love it when others underestimate me. Because, that way, I can
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
