“Everything seems to be fine after I went to Las Vegas and Hong Kong, but now, we’ve gathered one important piece of information…”“These people would come for my close ones just to kill me.”“Right now, Mandy’s their best target.”“I need to give them the wrong impression. They need to know that I’m scared.”“They’ll start to think that I was forced to divorce Mandy. They’ll even think that there’s a huge gap between us after what happened in Las Vegas and Hong Kong. I’m sure everyone who’s targeting me will be very happy to hear this, no?”“Only then will the cracks in Las Vegas and Hong Kong start to show…”Tyson froze.“I get it now. But, about Mordu…” Tyson began quietly.“Give Ethan a call. Tell me that he’s in charge of the Zimmer family’s safety.”“He’s a God of War. He should be able to deal with something this small,” Harvey explained.“Another thing. Get me a visiting card.”“I’ll go see Las Vegas’ first-in-command, Paul Mendoza himself, tomorrow.”…Twelve at m
The square-faced man tapped Lilian’s face lightly, grinning. “Interesting. We thought you were just some brain-dead woman, but it looks like you do have some insight after all. At least, I’m a little moved by your words.”“It’s a shame that neither you nor I get to decide whether you live or die...”Lilian’s body trembled in fright.“Please, sir! Be the bigger person and let me go!”“H-how about this? I have another few hundred million dollars worth of private money. I’ll split half of it with you!”The man with a square face didn’t respond. He stood up and chuckled coldly, and then dialed a number on his phone.“We found Lilian, Master York. She’s still alive.”“Looks like the Briewood Gang kept her alive for ransom.”“What should we do next? According to my intel, that man’s already interrogated Sister Thirteen overnight. He’ll be here soon.”“Why don’t we set things up here and give him a big surprise?”“Kill her.”A frosty tone sounded from the other side of the phone.
‘Is he even human?!’‘He’s already this good of a fighter at such a young age. It’s terrifying!’The square-faced man found himself terrified to the bones.No wonder his superior wanted him to be careful when going against Harvey York! If he missed his chance, he would’ve had no way out of the situation.Everything right now was too terrifying for him!This was The square-faced man’s evaluation of Harvey.But before he could say anything, Harvey kicked down another man who had rushed toward him.Other than Lilian, there were only four men left standing behind the square-faced man.“You’re pretty impressive, Harvey!” he said, sizing up Harvey.“I’ll admit that I’m not your opponent.”“But your end is already set in stone!”The square-faced man took a few steps back, then pulled Lilian up before removing her blindfold.“Break your arms and leave, Sir York! If not, I’ll end her life right now!” he exclaimed furiously.Lilian immediately came to her senses after her blindfold
“If anything happens to me, I’ll chase you down even if I turn into a damn ghost!”“You have to divorce Mandy no matter what! I won’t let her keep you ever again!” Lilian continued to screech.“I think you should just do as you’re told and chop off your arms already, Harvey.”The square-faced man grinned, as if he had realized something.“If you don’t, how are you supposed to live up to your wife and mother-in-law’s expectations?”“You of all people should know that we’re doing so much just to cripple you.”“Your mother-in-law’s just a means to get there. It doesn’t matter if she lives or dies!”“I swear to God that if you chop off both your arms, I’ll let your mother-in-law go this instant!”“If I break my promise, then I’ll die without a burial spot!”Naturally, the square-faced man understood that he was no match for Harvey after witnessing Harvey’s fighting skills first hand.His only hope as of now was to use Lilian to suppress Harvey.If Harvey were to cripple himself,
Harvey laughed.“I’m here to make sure she’s dead. I planned for her to die in your hands, too.”“Only then will the Zimmer family let me off the hook.”“Of course, when she’s dead, I’ll destroy you all as well. That way, no one will know what happened here.”“Everyone will call me a hero for getting revenge for my mother-in-law!”“Mandy would be so happy with me, she might even sleep with me!”“Hurry up already! I can’t wait!”Harvey pretended to look exhilarated, as if he wanted Lilian dead then and there.The square-faced man froze.“Do you really think I’d believe you, Harvey York?!” he said, though he did show some hesitation. “I’ve seen your files! You…”“Bastard! You bastard! You filthy kept man! You deserve to die!!!” Lilian suddenly yelled furiously, not giving the other two time to talk.“I was blind to have let my daughter marry such an ungrateful prick!”“Let me tell you something! I won’t let you go even if I turn into a ghost!”“I swear to God, I’ll make yo
He knew that his only way of survival was to control Harvey through Lilian.Without that, he would die without a doubt!Harvey’s skills were utterly terrifying. Ordinary people wouldn’t even begin to comprehend that sort of power.The square-faced man was about to put more pressure on his knife, wanting to slit Lilian’s windpipe in one go.Swish!Harvey’s face changed at that moment. He leaned his body forward, appearing right in front of Lilian as he thrust the blade in his hands.Bang!There was a deafening sound, and the entire place seemed to freeze.Harvey’s right hand was placed against Lilian’s stomach, and the knife was planted deeply in her abdomen.The square-faced man behind her couldn’t cut right into Lilian’s throat any longer; and the knife stabbed right into his heart.He couldn’t believe that Harvey would kill him like this.Harvey had Lilian as a meat shield, after all!Did he really not care about Lilian’s survival?Bang!Right as the square-faced man br
Soon, two doctors that were already prepared by Matthew rushed forward to give Lilian first aid before putting her onto the stretcher.Mandy looked at Harvey with a gaze filled with despair. She wanted to say something, but she couldn’t.Not only did she have to worry about her mother, but she also needed to fix the problems regarding the Casino-Palace and the Jean family’s ninth branch.She didn’t think that this would be the first thing she would see when she reunited with her mother.She couldn’t accept it!Harvey took a deep breath.“Listen to me, Mandy,” he began quietly.“I did this to save Mom. She’s my mother-in-law, no matter what happens.”“Just now…”Before Harvey could finish his sentence, Matthew walked forward with a grin. “You must be shameless, Prince York!”“Madam Yates got kidnapped because of you! It’s bad enough that you didn’t give your best to save her…”“But you even tried to kill her during all that?!”“If we didn’t come here in time, Madam Yates wou
“That’s because my daughter’s fast! If she’s a little late, I would’ve been dead!”Lilian started to make threatening gestures.“Right, where’s my bag?! I have the divorce papers there! Quick! Get this murderer to sign it!”“These are my last words here! Even if I die, I won’t let you two stay together!”Matthew made a gesture while Lilian was screaming up a storm. His subordinates found a Hermes bag in the corner and took out a wrinkly set of papers for Mandy.Mandy held the papers tightly, a pained look on her face. She signed her name on it, trembling.She gritted her teeth before handing the divorce papers to Harvey.“Sign it, Harvey!”Harvey sighed.“Do you really not trust me?”“Have you never once thought about what he’s thinking to bring you here at such perfect timing?”“He took you all the way here from Las Vegas, right on time to see me kill Lilian.”“Do you honestly think this is all just a coincidence?”“Or are you saying that you don’t even trust me?!”“I th
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
