Yvonne Xavier frowned as she strode toward the hall, then stopped when she was about forty feet away from those people with white shirts.After shifting her gaze toward the young man holding a portrait, Yvonne frowned.“This is the Smith family’s household, Mister. My grandfather, the richest man in Gangnam, is hosting his birthday banquet tonight.“It’s completely unreasonable for you to wear mourning clothes and cause such a huge ruckus while carrying someone’s portrait here, is it not?!”Yvonne made a gesture while she was speaking. Guards of the Smith family all appeared out of nowhere and completely surrounded the entire place, coldly glaring at the people.The man handed the portrait to his subordinate beside him, then walked forward while crossing his arms. After lighting up a thin and long cigar and taking a puff from it, he then coldly exclaimed, “Ms. Xavier, correct?“Let me introduce myself. My name is Alec Cloude, and the person in the portrait is my father.“I came
“Alec Cloude. Young Master Cloude, correct?”Harvey York stood up and walked toward the crowd at this moment, shielding Yvonne Xavier behind him.“I have no interest in your grudge against the Smith family, nor do I care to know.“But no matter what you’re going to do, don’t you think that it’s a little too rude to be causing such huge trouble on Senior Smith’s big day?“I don’t care if you’re seeking revenge or if you’re just here causing trouble. Just show up on your own if that’s the case.“What’s the point of making such a grand entrance?“Do you really think that the Smith family is that easily suppressed?“I don’t care how you deal with the Smith family.“But, if you as much as even lay a finger on Yvonne, don’t blame me for killing off every single one of you.”Harvey showed no emotion, but his words were terrifyingly savage.Many people were shocked while looking at Harvey after hearing those words.His opponents were people from the Little Dwelling, after all. They
“You should get out of here. If you don’t, I’ll be the one destroying the Little Dwelling,” Harvey York exclaimed calmly.“Destroy the Little Dwelling? Do you even have what it takes?”An unscrupulous and disapproving expression was showing on Alec Cloude’s face.“Try me if you can!”In Alec’s eyes, Harvey was only able to survive the last encounter because mercenaries were deployed.The foreign fools all gathered together and were completely wiped out.On the other hand, Alec’s mother suffered significant losses because of the filth, Fletcher, dragging her down.But Alec believed that he had at least a hundred ways to make Harvey’s life a living hell.“We’ll keep your gift for now, Mr. Cloude. As for who’s going to lie in it, I’ll have a talk with you about that after.”Without waiting for Harvey, Yvonne Xavier walked forward and snuck in some ruthless words.Naturally, Yvonne wouldn’t want Harvey to have any conflict with the Little Dwelling.“No matter what kind of grudge
“How dare you?!”Yvonne Xavier’s expression was as cold as ice while watching the sight.Even though she knew that there would be no peace that night, she didn’t expect that people from the Little Dwelling would come and cause trouble either.Even without the time to think, Yvonne waved her hands and gestured to the guards to charge forward.The burly man’s skin was quite dark as if he was made of black steel.He took a step forward and charged ahead, completely ignoring Harvey York at the moment. Crash!Along with the sound of a loud crash, he charged right into the crowd like a cannonball!A dozen guards of the Smith family were immediately sent flying. Some had broken limbs, and some had collapsed lungs. Every single one of them was lying paralyzed on the ground while coughing up blood, and they could not even muster the strength to stand back up.What power!What terrifying power!The dark-skinned burly man did not intend to stop there either. With a stomp of his foot,
Garry Duncan thought that it was just as he expected. Harvey York was just a kept man.He used Yona Lynch to suppress Garry before.But after causing such a big trouble, he still needed Rachel Hardy’s help to mediate the situation.Harvey would’ve been slapped to death judging from his thin arms and legs if not for Rachel.The shock on Hazel Malone’s pretty face had turned into utter disgust. She never thought that Harvey would do something like this.Apparently, one woman wasn’t enough for him, so he got kept in by another.Calling Harvey the king of kept men wouldn’t be an exaggeration at all.Yona, Chief Leonard Bray, Aiden Bauer, and the others were calmly watching the sight.They were familiar with Rachel’s strength, and all this was just a small test for her.Yvonne Xavier coldly glared at Alec and quietly exclaimed, “You’ve crossed the line, Mr. Cloude!”She then made a gesture soon after. Dozens of shooters carrying sniper rifles appeared from the second and third flo
Harvey York’s words completely enlightened Rachel Hardy in an instant. She quickly blocked the attacks with her right hand.Bang bang bang bang!Fists were constantly colliding, sending shockwaves all over the place.Even though Rachel’s skills were inferior to Yin and Yang, under Harvey’s guidance, her hands moved around like a shadow and blocked every one of their killer moves.Alec Cloude’s interest peaked while watching the fight. He wanted to toy with Rachel more as if it were a cat and mouse game. He did not want his subordinates to fight with all they got at all.Bang bang bang!Both sides were speeding up quite a bit. Rachel’s hits connected with the enemy more than a dozen times already.It was safe to admit that Yin and Yang were quite the professionals.Rachel wanted to defeat them both, but it would prove to be quite the challenge at the moment.“They’re on par with Kings of Arms…”Harvey had a judgment soon after. The power of those two people was clearly on par
“What?!”Hazel Malone and the others present gasped after seeing the sight.They didn’t expect that Rachel Hardy’s skill would be this terrifying.And what was going on with Harvey York?It was as if he was giving Rachel instructions every time he spoke!Rachel was the top talent within Mordu’s Longmen branch, so how was he able to instruct her?But the truth was there.It was clear as day that Yin and Yang were both terrifying opponents.But with Harvey’s guidance, Rachel was able to deal with them smoothly.The two slaps in the end were especially exhilarating.“He just got lucky!“Does he think he’s a God of War or something? Why is he still pretending to give out instructions now?”A derisive look was showing on Garry Duncan’s face.Did Harvey even have the right to instruct Rachel?He would’ve already been the best out of the younger generation if he did. He would’ve been invincible!No matter how Garry looked at it, he thought that Harvey was just using the opportu
“Besides, the last fight was just us playing with you.“I only needed to buy some time…”Fierce footsteps echoed from outside at this moment!Murderous intent was seeping inside!About a hundred men with firearms flooded in, completely surrounding the hall skillfully.Benjamin Lynch, Zeke Smith, Otis Kye, and other government officials were forced outside.Even Benjamin’s expression changed slightly after seeing such a sight.Nobody thought that there would be such a turn of events that day.The shooters had utterly suppressed the entire place!Numbers like this were simply terrifying!“How dare you?!”As the government of Mordu’s second-in-command and a member of the Smith family, Zeke could not just stand idly by and watch the show.He took a step forward and furiously glared at Alec Cloude.“What does the Little Dwelling want with us, Alec?!” exclaimed Zeke coldly.An evil smile leaked out of the corners of Alec’s mouth.“I have brought Yin and Yang, thirty killers, a
Blade frowned and said nothing when he heard Harvey's teasing. Not far away came the sound of spotlights being turned on. Giant spotlights immediately focused on their location from all around them, turning the place as bright as day. The Enforcer Division who just got out of the car narrowed their eyes, trying to adjust to the light."You're smart, and you're quite perceptive as well." At this time, one of the doors on the giant stone gate from not far away slid open, and dozens of figures appeared. The one leading them was a woman wearing a traditional garb, a fan in her hand.She looked like a seductress. Her eyes were filled with charm, and even just a glance from her was quite seductive. All the men and women behind her were wearing uniforms, bearing a stern expression. "Unfortunately, smart people normally don't last long here," the woman continued with a smile. Harvey shrugged. "I haven't asked you what this place is yet."The woman kept smiling. "Our place was quite
The atmosphere within the car fell into absolute silence. Blade extended his head and opened the sunroof, allowing the fresh air to enter the car. He took in the fresh air, but no one could tell his thoughts.Harvey smiled as he once again closed his eyes and rested. To him, the destination for this journey meant nothing.Very quickly, the car drove until night. During this journey, the car stopped three times. They would always rest, have a meal, and get a toilet break at a temporary supply base that had been established beforehand. Blade had maintained his silence and said nothing.As for Harvey, it was life as usual for him. He would eat when he was supposed to and sleep when he had time to. It was so that everyone could maintain their energy.Harvey even took a hot shower in one of the supply bases and got to wash his clothes. The members of the Enforcement Division that kept watch over him looked at him strangely. It was obvious it was their first time meeting a criminal lik
Blade was slightly stunned when he heard it and took in a deep breath, as if he was suppressing something he was feeling. Then, he said slowly, "The Grand City is also called the Grand City that Didn't Belong to the World. Those from the Grand City had been called many names. Wizards, alchemists, immortals… In a place like ours, we have rules and laws coming from bygone eras. After existing for so long, people from our city understand that only by following these rules and laws will we be able to protect the Grand City."Harvey smiled. "So, to you, even if you know the order you're going to execute is wrong, you'll still do it no matter the cost, right?""It's easy for one person to make a mistake," Blade said. "It's even easier for someone to make a mistake when one speculates. This is an order that was made based on the rules and regulations. The chances of it being a mistake are very low…"Even if I have some thoughts, I'd rather do as I'm ordered by Grand City. As for whether
Half an hour later, Harvey got into the back seat of a Range Rover after he packed a few sets of clothes. During this time, not only did he have to console Yvonne not to do something rash, but he also had to arrange for something else. He even had the time to order some pasta through delivery.While he still didn't know what Grand City had prepared for him, he knew that he should get ready. He had to give it his all this time. Grand City was not an opponent he could simply ignore.Once he was in the Range Rover, Harvey took the best seat that once belonged to Blade. He even adjusted the seat so he could sleep for a while.The next morning, Harvey woke up and downed a mouthful of carbonated water. He rubbed his eyes and looked around him from the car window. The car was already driving through an ancient forest. But because the car's performance was just that excellent, he felt like he had been driving on flat land.After taking a look, Harvey looked at Blade next to him. Blade's
"It's alright, Yvonne. Don't get mad. If you get angry because of something like this, then you've lost," Harvey said as he shook his head. He stopped Yvonne, who was on the verge of exploding."The people from Grand City have a way of doing things due to how they believe that they're better than everyone else. Not following their laws would ruin their reputation, so I'll go with them," Harvey said as he narrowed his eyes.He knew very well that this was a plot against him. It wasn't just about Durandal's death, it was also because he had offended Dan. The day Harvey became the representative, someone had already plotted against him. For everyone's sake, Harvey decided to make a move.While he wasn't afraid of Grand City, it didn't mean that everyone else wasn't fearless of Grand City either."Don't be rash…" Yvonne said, shivering. Harvey patted her hand a while and then looked at Blade's cold expression with great interest. "I can tell that you're not someone who lies and y
"Firearms?" Blade smiled coldly when he saw this, and looked at Yvonne with a sneer. "There's something you probably didn't know, girl. All of my followers here are martial arts elites, and they're wearing the silk armor that Grand City produced. This armor makes them untouchable by blades or the elements. If you don't do anything rash, it's fine. But if you do, your men will die. Here's my advice. Don't get all of them killed just because of one person."And then, he commanded coldly, "Do it."Eighteen elites from the Enforcement Division took a step forward when they heard his command, looking calm."I don't believe that you're not afraid of a gun!" Yvonne grabbed a gun and pointed it at Blade.However, Blade didn't react even when faced with Yvonne's madness. He simply walked over to her, held the gun in her hand, and then pointed it at his forehead. "Come on. If you don't believe it, give it a try. Pull the trigger and see if you can kill me."Yvonne's eyes widened when
"You are as well-spoken as they claim, Mr. Representative," Blade said coldly. "I wish he didn't die, since I watched him grow up. However, the fact is, he's dead. We have enough evidence to prove that you caused it. So, let's not waste our time and come with us. This is better for all of us."Yvonne's expression darkened. "Blade, is it? I don't care who you are, but my boss never lies. If he said that he didn't kill that man, then this has nothing to do with him. Don't pin the blame on someone innocent!"Blade looked at Harvey icily. "We wish that he could be innocent too. If that's the case, that's an even better reason for you to come with us. Since he's being suspected, he should come to prove his innocence at the very least."Yvonne snapped, "You think very highly of yourself! You can make anyone the suspect because you say so? You can take anyone with you because you want to? Do you know that he's also the representative of the Country H Martial Arts Alliance? In some way, he'
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
