Swooosh!The blade with a blue glow was swung forward without any hesitation.The Zephyr Slash was pulled off once again!It was a simple and straightforward cut but packed with massive damage!“Your swordsmanship has already been perfected, Mr. Akano. If you manage to kill this man, you shall be crowned as the Shindan Way’s Sword Saint!” Sakura Miyamoto calmly said while admiring the battle.Taro Akano’s courage increased exponentially. The blade in his hand was filled with a menacing aura.Harvey York calmly dodged to the rear. He did not try to block the attack this time.But doing so had made Taro completely fearless. He leaped forward in an instant as he kept swinging his sword at terrifying speeds.Swish swish swish!Cross Slash!The sword in Taro’s hand was vibrating violently. A cross was formed mid-air, blocking Harvey’s escape route.At the same time, Taro pounced forward as if he were a savage monster, suppressing Harvey with the threatening glow of his blade.Sa
Harvey York dodged backward while mentally counting time.Boom!The cut landed right on the exquisite piano behind Harvey, splitting it in half.“Bastard!”Taro Akano’s expression completely worsened after seeing that none of his attacks even scraped Harvey.Right at this moment, Harvey’s phone rang. He took a glance at his phone with a nonchalant expression, then calmly said, “Game over, Taro.“I’ll give you a chance. Give me the medicine and kneel, then start talking.”“Kneel, then start talking?”Taro was utterly enraged.“Do you really think that you’re still the invincible Chief Instructor, Harvey?” exclaimed Taro while coldly chuckling.“In my eyes, you’re just an arrow at the end of your flight!“Besides, us Island Nation Swordsmen don’t allow ourselves to be humiliated!“Now, let me show you my true killer move!”Taro unsheathed his short sword with his left hand and pounced forward.Both swords were swung forward, effectively blocking Harvey’s escape path.Slap!
Harvey York was only using his slaps at the moment.Taro Akano would've conceded if Harvey used any other killer move against him.After all, his opponent was the legendary Chief Instructor.Every time Harvey landed his slap on Taro’s face, he felt more and more disgraced for the swordsmanship that he took pride in.At this moment, Taro had a strong urge to slam his head on the ground and end his life.But he couldn’t even block a single hit from Harvey, nor could he dodge out of the way.Slap!Taro spun in the air after getting hit by another slap before landing back down again. He had an extremely wretched look on his face at the time.With a swing of Harvey’s leg, Taro was kicked down to the ground rolling.Harvey crouched down in front of Taro and patted his face.“Come, the finest sword of Mordu’s Shindan Way,” said Harvey calmly.“The Shindan Way’s top talent.“Tell me. What do you mean by you won’t allow me to humiliate you?“You think you can just quote scriptures
Harvey York dialed a number on his phone.Before long, Yona Lynch had already arrived with her most trusted men and a few private doctors of the Lynch family.Harvey briefly explained the situation and told Yona to send Xynthia Zimmer and Mandy Zimmer to the Mordu International Airport since Oskar Armstrong was about to arrive.Harvey would only be at ease after Oskar gives the two sisters a thorough check-up.Aiden Bauer called after Yona took Mandy and Xynthia away.“Branch Leader, we confirmed the position of the cruise ship. The Longmen disciples have found Ms. Walker.“We arrived early. Fortunately, Ms. Walker’s fine.“But Ms. Miyamoto already escaped! My apologies for being incapable.”After hearing that Kait Walker was fine, Harvey let out a huge sigh of relief.“It’s fine as long as she’s in one piece.“Send Kait to the airport. Let Oskar check on her.”After Harvey hung up the call, he walked toward Taro Akano while showing no emotion on his face.“Where’s Sakura?”
On the top floor of the Pothole Hotel, inside a presidential suite.Sakura Miyamoto still had no color on her face after a new change of clothes.Even after taking a warm shower, her body was still trembling to no end.She could clearly feel Harvey York’s murderous intent even when she literally was on the other side of the screen.“Aya Miyamoto, you must remember today’s shame!“Harvey, the legendary Chief Instructor, is the one who forced the Shindan Way to such lengths!“When the opportunity arises in the future, I’ll turn his bones to dust!”“We will make Country H kneel before us! Only then will our shame be washed away!”Sakura was constantly shivering, but her words were filled with utter hatred.It was good that she and Aya immediately left Kait Walker and escaped.They would’ve ended up with Longmen just like their subordinates if they didn't.It was safe to say that one wrong move had completely ruined years of their business.It was a shame that there was no medi
When Aya Miyamoto was slightly relaxed, she thought of something else. She looked at the traffic light outside and spoke with a worried tone, “Sister, I thought of something!“With Harvey York’s status and power, he should be able to find out that we’re here!“Is he going to kill his way in?!“Should we just slip away by boat?!”“You’re just too young!” Sakura Miyamoto replied with a quiet voice.“Don’t you forget, Harvey has another identity as Mordu’s Longmen branch leader!“If he wills it, we’ll have a hard time getting away even if we tried that!“The best plan right now is to stay in the Thompson family’s hotel and board the first flight tomorrow morning!“Don’t you worry, Young Master Thompson has already prepared new identities for us.“The most important thing is that he’s one of the Four Young Masters of Wolsing. His cousin has even more of a strong background, and she’s backed up by the people of Dragon Palace!“With these extraordinary backgrounds, influence, and p
At around the same time, a dozen Toyota Prados showed up in front of the Pothole Hotel, completely blocking off the hotel’s welcome avenue.Harvey York calmly got out of the car. Tyson Woods and Rachel Hardy followed closely behind.Harvey’s imposing aura could be felt from a mile away. When he walked, no one would even dare to look at him.The hotel's security guards were all resting their hands on their firearms after seeing the sight with stern looks on their faces.“Today’s the opening ceremony of the Pothole Hotel, everyone!“Invited guests only!“If you do not have invitations, please leave immediately!”The guard leading the group was about to pull out his firearm in the middle of his speech.Slap!Tyson did not even give those people a chance to pull out their firearms. He instantly slapped the guards to the ground with his backhand.Every single step Tyson took, he slapped a guard down with his palm. Soon enough, the guards were all sent flying before crashing back t
Bang!A deafening noise rang amidst all the pomp and glitter under the bright lights. There was a sudden huge noise from the golden-silk phoebe wood gate, as if someone had kicked it away.At that instant, the music and laughter from the crowd came to an immediate halt. Harvey walked in indifferently with his hands folded neatly behind his back, accompanied by a group of people indifferently.More precisely, these newcomers broke into the place.The stunned crowd stared at them in astonishment. Everyone looked at the passage outside the door. Limping on the ground around it were several armed guards from the Thompson family. None of them were able to get up at all.The scene bewildered everyone.The crowd couldn’t decide if the man leading the group that had just appeared was a powerful figure, or a simple-minded fool. After all, this was a five-star hotel under the ownership of Wolsing’s Thompson family.Yet, someone had the guts to stir chaos during Pothole Hotel’s grand
"I'll give you ten minutes to walk out of there without your clothes on! If you do that, I won't kill anymore of your bodyguards. If you're still not here in ten minutes, then I'm sorry, but the flames will consume you. I'll remember to visit you at your grave next year!" Sora laughed strangely after that.Everyone who heard his laughter could only feel a chill in their bones as they felt disgusted. Mandy's expression became even darker. She did not refuse him immediately, though. While she knew he was playing a game of cat and mouse, those ten minutes might just be enough to save them.-At the same time. Outside of the manor. Sora and his group of confidantes had already arrived at the entrance of the manor. He narrowed his eyes and looked at the terrace. After he waved his hands, his confidante spread out and sealed the remaining entrances.Next to Sora was a swordsman with a mustache. His eyes were full of spirit. It was obvious that he was an elite, the kind who could crush al
"Watch out!" It was at this time when Seven suddenly pulled Mandy over to the side, as his expression darkened. At the same time, one of the pieces of ballistic glass shook and fell on the floor. Then, bolts that seemed like rain stormed into the terrace, falling right where Mandy was standing.If it was not because of Seven's quick actions, Mandy might have already become a human pincushion. She was immediately covered in cold sweat. While she had personally grown and become a successful businesswoman, she had never been in many of these kinds of life and death situations.Whoosh!It was as if the people outside had noticed an opening, they continuously fired the Repeating Crossbow. As they did that, one of the bodyguards who could not dodge in time collapsed on the ground as he held his thigh. A bolt pierced through his thigh, and he immediately lost his ability to fight.Mandy quickly said, "Quick! Drag him over! It's too dangerous over there!"The two bodyguards trembled, and
"Ms. Mandy, you should run now! Run from the back! I can still hold them up for about 15 minutes!" Seven said in a bitter voice as he peeked outside from the door's gap from inside the manor. "If you don't, we won't be able to escape once they rush in. We're almost out of ammo. If we don't fight our way out, we'll all end up dead!"Mandy hesitated a little when she saw how Seven was becoming somewhat concerned and said, "Sure. We'll leave from the back door. But they're here for me. I can't escape. All of you should go and I'll cover you!"Mandy's expression was resolute. Seven was slightly stunned before saying, "Don't joke about something like that, Ms. Mandy. While I'm not one of your followers, but as a bodyguard of the Jeans of Mor'du, there's no way I can escape before you have safely retreated. If I do that, not only will I be unable to face the family, but I also won't be able to face myself and stay in this world!"All the bodyguards exchanged looks and said, "That's right,
The young man in the white suit was not that old. He was at least in his mid-twenties. However, his cheeks were somewhat red. It was obvious that years of excessive drinking and womanizing have left him too depleted for anything to be able to help him. But even then, he still looked in front with greed and obsession, as if wanting to push the woman in the manor to the ground and tear her apart.It was obvious that this man was the scion of the Origin Sword Style, Sora Yamamoto.Sora did not think much about the death of the Origin Sword Style elites. He did not even feel much about their death, as if their death had nothing to do with him."Sir, it's not that the woman is strong. It's the simple fact that no one expected her to have the Royal Flush with her… And she has plenty of it too. From the results of us testing her, the woman isn't saving the Royal Flush for something else when she had her bodyguards use them. I suspect that she had an unlimited supply of it.""You idiot!" S
"Too weak," Harvey sighed. In the next instant, he lifted his right foot and planted it on a broken piece of rock. Instantly, the rock shot out and headed straight to Sverker's throat. It was obvious that Harvey did not wish to leave the Origin Sword Style's number one elite alive."You fool…!" Sverker's entire soul was shuddering as he could feel Death coming for him. He let out a roar and all the energy within his body started to flow, wanting to use that to stop Harvey's attack. However, his thoughts were faster than he could act.The moment he wanted to fight back, he could feel the taste of blood in his mouth. The small rock had already pierced through his throat. In that instant, Sverker's thoughts instantly stopped as he lost the strength to struggle. Then, he collapsed on the ground just like that.There was anger, despair, and even doubt in his eyes.He could not believe that as an elite of the Origin Sword Style, as one of the few most powerful men in Sky Plane, how he en
When the palm strike was going to reach Sverker, Harvey changed his palm strike into a finger strike. He flicked his finger at the edge of the blade.Clank!"Gah!"Sverker seemed shocked as his body shook. There was even blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. He was in a terrible state as he took a few steps back."Mr. Sverker!" All the women cried out at the same time, with shocked expressions. They could not believe that not only did Harvey manage to easily block the legendary Three Slashes, but most importantly he was able to force Sverker some distance back with just the flick of his finger!He was beyond terrifying!"Damn you, kid! Do you think this is my full power?" Sverker's temper was at boiling point after the continuous failures as he gritted his teeth. "I will send you to Hell with all three slashes fused into one!""I better be the one sending you to Hell. I'm already bored with your sword technique," replied Harvey casually. Before Sverker could even attack,
"Your life is worth so little and you want to drag us along to hell? Who do you think you are? All of you are just the same! Selfish to the core!" the woman yelled at Harvey. It was clear that no matter what Harvey did, she wouldn't like it.Harvey glanced at her and said, "We can forget a moment about how your Mr. Sverker is the one who wanted to die alongside me out of shame and anger, let's talk about you. Who else can you blame but yourself by wasting time here instead of running? Not to mention, he can't do anything to me even if he can slash time and the universe."You have overestimated Sverker. He's nothing but trash. I simply wanted to see how powerful the Sword Style Origin's technique is." Harvey then gave Sverker a look. "But at this level, I can easily dispel it with just one strike.""You…" Sverker was so angry that he shuddered. He wasn't going to waste any more time. He gritted his teeth and once again slashed at where Harvey was standing."Timely Slash!"A
"Is that right?" Harvey asked the woman.He looked at Sverker's dark expression."Oh, he's being that nice? Why not give me a few more concessions? Why don't you go easy on me and miss all three slashes?""Damn you! Damn you all!" Sverker's expression turned dark by Harvey's snickering. He pounced forward again. In just an instant, he already appeared before Harvey. His body suddenly swayed and separated into eight afterimages; all of them instantly slashed from all eight directions."Earthly Slash!"Whoosh!As Sverker made that attack, a screeching sound filled the entire marsh. Sverker attacked Harvey like a flash of lightning. The moment the blade almost reached Harvey, a dreadful aura expanded from it, as if a black light was covering the surface of the blade.The attack seemed to have come from the depths of Hell itself, carrying the wrath of countless ghosts.Harvey's expression was cold as his fist turned into a palm strike, and he attacked straight ahead. His attack w
"Idiot!" Sverker smiled coldly as his figure flashed as he pounced forth like a bolt of lightning. The sword in his hand was immediately pulled out from its sheath, like a shooting star across the sky.Compared to the attack just now, this attack was simply and much more direct. There wasn't even much strength behind it. However, those in the know would know that an attack like this was the most powerful.Sverker believed he could easily kill Harvey on the spot."So what if you defeated all the six schools? So what if you defeated all the prodigies from Country I? So what if you defeated Mark?" Sverker smiled coldly as he attacked. "All the so-called True Warriors were joking to me… Because I am the one who kills True Warriors!" Sverker smiled coldly as he unleashed his first strike."Heavenly Slash!" A scarlet light suddenly flashed through Sverker's blade. Harvey raised his head; the attack that was going to split the sky had arrived. Before the blade even reached h
