Harvey pursed his lips, annoyed. Unfortunately, he could only swallow his frustration and open the car door for the two.“Aunty Lowe, please enter the car.”The opened door revealed a luxurious interior.Lucie and Nicolas’ eyes brightened at the sight, as though they were looking at an extravagant garden.The moment they entered the car, they whipped out their phones and clicked away, taking dozens of snapshots to show off in their friend groups. They were also sly enough to block Lilian and her family members from seeing their posts.Through the corner of his eye, Harvey saw Nicolas’ texts. The contents left him speechless. “The harder you work, the luckier you get. My first Toyota Alphard. Two hundred and thirty thousand dollars well spent.”As soon as Nicolas uploaded the pictures to his friend group, likes immediately flooded in.Not long after, he received a voicemail from someone with a profile picture depicting a young woman whose beautiful voice was obviously a result
Lucie joined in and shouted at Harvey alongside her son.“Exactly! Why’s a driver like you nagging at my boy?!”“Are you the one in charge of the car?”“You didn’t buy it anyway! What’s wrong with letting my son play with it for a while?!”“Besides, you’re only allowed to drive a car like this because of us!”“Without us, people like you are destined to ride on bicycles your whole life!”“Enough yapping! Stop the car!”Lucie and Nicolas were very confident in their argument, unaware of how ridiculous they sounded. To them, they were being perfectly reasonable.Harvey was losing his patience. He was ready to throw the two fools out of the car when a loud explosion not far ahead grabbed his attention. He spun around to look. All around him, people were panicking.Harvey rolled down the car window and stuck his head. He saw a Lamborghini stuck on the bridge’s railing and was hanging precariously from it. It could fall into the river at any time.“Miss! Miss! Are you alright?!”
Harvey ignored the mother and son and rushed to the front of the crowd. He squinted as he studied his surroundings, particularly the hanging Lamborghini.The Lamborghini’s engine was already beginning to burn up. Those who stood around the car dared not take even one step further. Even the woman’s butler and bodyguards did not have the courage to act.Forget saving their mistress, they might even lose their lives in the process.Harvey analyzed the situation, trying to come up with a plan. He deduced that the woman could only be saved after prying the car door open and taking off the seat belt, though all these had to be done in the shortest amount of time possible.In fact, the entire process had to be done within at most three seconds. If not, the person trying to help would get dragged into the river as well. In the worst case scenario, the Lamborghini would explode immediately after crashing into the river. Under such circumstances, there would be zero chance of the woman sur
Daniel soon came to his senses. He pondered for a while before saying, “Butler Thompson, I think you can clearly tell what’s going on in front of you.”“I assure you, Butler Thompson. There is only one solution. We must push the car into the river to stop it from exploding.” “Even so, doing that carries an extremely high risk. If your lady happened to be very unlucky, the car might explode the moment it enters the river, or if it suddenly suffers a hydraulic shock. Both circumstances can be deadly for her!”“That’s why you, as her butler, must decide if we’re going to save her or otherwise!”Daniel was keen enough to take advantage of the situation. Knowing that he would be in hot water should anything wrong happen, he quickly shifted the responsibility to Butler Thompson.If Daniel was victorious in saving the esteemed lady, then he could hog all the credit and glory. On the contrary, if he failed and the lady ended up dying in the process, the responsibility would fall on But
“I don’t know what kind of expert you are, but don’t you know that what you’re doing is extremely risky?” Harvey challenged, trying to control his temper. Daniel’s plan was nothing short of outrageous! “The only way is to pry open the car door right now and take off the seat belt as quick as possible, and then get Ms. Thompson out.”“But all that must be done in a span of three seconds!”“If the rescuer fails, he’ll get dragged into the river along with her!”“If you really are the expert you claim to be, you should be able to tell that this is the only way!”“The only way?”Listening to Harvey’s explanation, Daniel knew that Harvey’s way had some chance of succeeding, even if it may be a slim one.But a true man would not stand behind a collapsing wall. Daniel knew that this rescue attempt would affect his reputation. He refused to carry out Harvey’s plan. “From how I see it, your so-called ‘only way’ doesn’t even have a chance of succeeding unless you give up your life!”
To make things worse, they saw Harvey as someone who tried to gamble on a woman’s life for his own benefit!‘There’s actually someone who dares to toy with Ms. Thompson’s life! He must have a death wish!’Several beautiful women present were unable to hide their disgust. They glared daggers at Harvey, their faces twisted in scorn and contempt.‘This liar’s really overestimating himself! He’s actually trying to steal the limelight from a safety management expert!’“Even if you do follow his plan, he shouldn’t simply push the car bare-handed. Humans have static electricity in their bodies. There’s a possibility that he might ignite the tank once he touches the car…”Harvey reminded kindly, determined to press on. He really did not want to see the woman dying in vain.“Stop nagging, young man!” Before Harvey could even finish, Butler Thompson immediately cut him off and stopped him.“If you keep stopping us from saving Ms. Thompson, we’ll have to force our hand!”Upon Butler Tho
The crowd was in an uproar, and everyone was losing their heads from sheer terror.Nobody imagined that things would escalate to this point.To say the situation was dire would be an understatement. Ms. Thompson could die at any minute!On top of it all, she had just woken up. To see herself falling to her death was nothing short of pure torment. “Think of something already!” Butler Thompson yelled desperately, grabbing Daniel’s collar forcefully.Daniel, however, was drenched in his own tears. The proud man from before was reduced to a pathetic crying wreck.“It’s hopeless! There’s no saving her!”“Call the firefighters! Hurry! Call them now!”“She’s going to die! You have to hurry!”Daniel almost passed out, crushed by the pressure. Because Butler Thompson was ready to take responsibility if he failed, he felt that he could shift the blame to the old man. Unfortunately for Daniel, nothing went as planned. The Thompson family from Wolsing was one of the top ten families
“Get out of the way! The car might explode again!”“Stay away from the car! Don’t get caught in the explosion!”It took only ten seconds for Harvey to emerge from the crowd. He stood before everyone as he yelled several warnings. “Someone lend me a pair of gloves!”A person from the crowd threw a pair of rubber gloves to the ground. Harvey did not hesitate and grabbed them quickly. He put them on both hands and dashed to the exploding Lamborghini.The crowd watched him and breathed a collective sigh of relief. Compared to Daniel, who was just showing off, they could tell that Harvey really was trying to save Ms. Thompson. Even in the most dire of situations, he did not panic and kept a cool head.“He’s not scared at all when facing danger. Now that’s a true professional—a true expert!”“Be careful, Mr. Expert!”“Stop trying to fawn on him already! Think of a way to move your cars away! The fire brigade’s about to be here!”“...”Harvey completely ignored the crowd, uncarin
In that instant, all the elites from Origin Fist could only gasp. They didn't know how to react when they saw what happened. Normally, once Harvey gave Kuro the chance to turn the table around, Kuro should have the advantage.But the result?Kuro was being stepped on, and he didn't even have the power to resist. Before Harvey's strength, he was just too weak."Not only can't you fight, but you're also making me very disappointed," Harvey said as he squatted and patted Kuro's face. It was a simple action, but it was enough to humiliate Kuro completely."Stop wasting time here, kid. I acknowledge that I've been careless, and I acknowledge that I'm not as skilled as you. I surrender!" The expression on Kuro's face was one of stubbornness. "If you can, kill me! I'm telling you, even if I die, the Origin Fist will never let you go! No matter who you are, you'll die in the hands of Origin Fist! If I die, your whole family will die with you!""How naïve," Harvey said with a smile. In t
"Your level of power is insufficient as well. Your so-called Black Hands is somewhat interesting, but you can't even unleash half of its power. Which means that the Sky Plane's martial arts aren't good, and so are you," Harvey said as he kept on slapping Kuro.Kuro couldn't even move away from getting slapped. His face was full of blood, and its contour had completely changed. All the Origin Fist elites could only watch this in shock.Kuro was the cream of the crop of Origin Fist. Not only was he a True Warrior, but he had even mastered the Black Hands. Why couldn't he escape the weak slaps from Harvey? How could Kuro not defeat Harvey, especially in a place like Grand City?This was the same as the Origin Fist's dignity being completely soiled!But another question appeared. Were the weak-looking slaps really that powerful?"You fool! How dare you slap me!" Kuro snarled, fury and doubt on his face. He was shocked at Harvey's power. He didn't think Harvey could slap him that e
"You fool!" Kuro was completely infuriated.He immediately appeared in mid-air in front of Harvey, his palms striking down. The black miasma surrounding his hands turned into gigantic palms, carrying a powerful aura. They seemed to be expanding without limits. At that instant, they seemed to be covering the entire sky.Everyone gasped.What was going on? Was this the legendary Black Hands?They couldn't believe it! Then they saw how Harvey seemed like he was stunned by the terrifying Black Hands. He simply stood there, unmoved, as if he was frozen.Alexei's expression changed. He wanted to call out to Harvey, but he noticed that he couldn't say anything as his throat had gone dry. He couldn't even move.He wasn't the only one. Even the bodyguards from the Foster family were all full of despair. They never expected the elites from Sky Plane could be so strong—it shook them to the core. Even among the seven families from Grand City, only the few most talented people would hav
Harvey frowned and looked at Alexei. "Alexei, do all the people from Sky Plane have some emotional issues? Why are they all so self-centered?""Well…" Alexei was speechless. 'Bro… Big bro…' While Harvey had the strength to ignore the people from Sky Plane, Alexei didn't! Not only did he want to live, but he wanted to live a good life too!When Kuro heard Harvey's words, he smiled coldly. "You have quite the confidence, Mr. Representative. You probably don't understand what the words True Warriors meant. Today, allow me to help you understand just how terrifying the True Warriors from Sky Plane are!"As Kuro said that, he extended his right hand. A black miasma appeared around his fingers. Very quickly, it began to surround both his palms, looking extremely eerie.Mikan instinctively asked, "You're going to use the Origin Fist's ultimate attack, the Black Hands?"The so-called Black Hands was the ultimate technique of the Origin Fist. It was said that every use of it will make
To someone like Mikan, who thought of herself as someone at the top of the social hierarchy, what happened to her was humiliating and infuriated her deeply.She gritted her teeth and stared at Harvey. After a long while, she yelled, "Shameless… You shameless man! How dare you ambush me?!"Slap!Harvey sent Mikan flying again with another slap. This time, she slammed right into a giant stone pillar in the courtyard, and was instantly in a wounded state."Ambush? Do I even need to ambush rubbish like you?" Harvey's expression was full of disdain. "Who do you think you are? What makes you think you're worth ambushing?"Harvey fired a few more slaps at Mikan. There was no way for her to escape, and her entire face was now full of dirt. In the end, she was thrown out of the entrance. She rolled on the ground, and Harvey even kicked her on the buttocks.When all the spectators saw what had happened, their eyes grew wide, their faces filled with disbelief. They never expected that thing
Sky Plane and Grand City were similar. Their status in the Island Nation was also very high. Some of the Islanders even treat the Sky Plane as where the gods resided and would worship them.Since the ruling Royal Family and the Six Schools couldn't limit the Sky Plane, it made everyone who came from the Sky Plane incredibly arrogant. They believed they were the best of all. They believed that as long as they announced they were from the Sky Plane, no one could do anything to them.Mikan's attitude made everyone hold their breaths in anticipation. Some of those who still had compassion within them shook their heads.While it was nothing to them if they offended ordinary Islanders, members of the Six Schools and even those from the ruling Royal Family, crossing Sky Plane was a death wish.No one other than the direct descendent of the Grand City could attract Sky Plane's wrath.Just when all of them thought that Harvey was going to surrender, Harvey simply smirked and said, "As expe
"Since you're all coming for me, then there's no need to hide your intentions. Why don't you just directly tell me what your aim is?" Harvey said coldly. The attack on him smelled like a plot. However, the Islanders were making this too obvious… Only fools couldn't see through it."I'm Mikan Inoue, and this is my older brother Kuro Inoue. We are practitioners of the Origin Fists from Sky Plane," the Islander woman said with a commanding tone as she played with her martial arts robe, showing the size of her chest."When we're at the Sky Plane, we heard that the representative of Country H's Martial Arts had completely demolished all the Six Schools of the Island Nation. While they were simply servants of the Sky Plane, you still have to consider who their masters are. If you dare to hit our servants, then it's only natural for you to pay the price, correct?"Kuro Inoue also said with a smile, "Kneel and beg us to spare you. Then, we won't make a move. But the condition is that you
When Harvey saw what happened, his eyes became even colder. Even Alexei, someone who didn't know much about Harvey, could sense the murderous aura coming from him. He shuddered. Then, he mustered the courage he needed to yell, "Hey! You islanders! How dare you throw Dragon Gate into chaos! Do you have a death wish?!"When the elites from the Island Nation walked out of the inner courtyard and heard that, they hurled the injured trainers on the ground. Then, all of them tilted their heads as they looked at Harvey with a sneer.The leader among the Islanders' elites stepped forward and said in a nonchalant tone, "You're the Dragon Gate's scion as well as the representative of the Country H Martial Arts Alliance? You're only here after waiting for you for so long… Don't tell me you're scared?" He spoke the language of Country H very well, but if one were to listen, it was clear that his fluency was still quite lacking. A woman was walking next to him, playing with the sleeve of he
Alexei's eyes narrowed when he saw the man in the Island Nation's martial arts robe. "Big bro, are you really the scion of Dragon Gate? If you are, then this is going to be troublesome. The man who's challenging the training hall is one of the representatives the Island Nation's Sky Plane sent here. He's supposed to be an elite trained in the Origin Fist."Harvey's curiosity was piqued. "Origin Fist?"Alexei nodded. "You probably don't know this. While the so-called Six Schools sound great in the Island Nation, when it comes to the Origin martial arts from the Sky Plane, they are nothing! Even if we don't talk about the rest and just the Origin Fist, everyone who's trained in it is legendary. It's said that they can split mountains with their bare fists alone, and it's even more powerful than our country's Eagle Claw technique!"Alexei's expression was one of fear as he pointed at the wounds on all those trainers. If one were to look closely, all ad signs of being clawed upon. T
