“I-I’ll come with you!”Matthew gave up struggling, and then glanced at his injured bodyguards.“But they’re all innocent. Please send them to the hospital so they get the treatment they need.”“Don’t worry. We won’t wrong any innocents. We won’t let any bad people go, either.”“If your bodyguards don’t do anything stupid, they’ll survive.”Matthew nodded before shooting a meaningful look at his bodyguards. Under these circumstances, he would need the senior of his family to take action.…While Harrison and Matthew were both taken away for Dragon Palace’s investigation…Harvey was inside the interrogation room of Las Vegas Police Station.Yoana was sitting in front of him. After they were done with the recording, they chatted casually.Yoana had already understood everything that Harvey went through. She tossed a phone to Harvey and said, “Another thing. The important person you speak of, Freya, is dead.”“She was hit by a buckshot during the chaos. The bullet pierced right
Yoana sent Harvey in, warning him to be careful. Then, she left the place.Only Harvey remained.Harvey looked around the place, but saw no one. However, he could sense dread looming behind him.Harvey knew in an instant that at least ten people had their eyes on him. They were all pretty skilled as well.“Dragon Palace, one of the cornerstones of Country H.”Harvey was interested.Among the cornerstones of Country H, Dragon Guards were in charge of protection; Dragon Cell focused on punishments; Longmen governed the underworld. Dragon Palace would handle everything outside the borders of the country.According to the current situation, Dragon Cell would be the one to show up for such a thing.But since both Las Vegas and Hong Kong were outside Country H’s borders, it would be natural for them to take action instead.While Harvey was still pondering about the situation, a man clad in a special uniform appeared from afar.He nodded at Harvey, and gestured at Harvey to head ins
Though it initially seemed like a simple questioning session, the whole thing took up an entire night.White Horse asked Harvey a few important questions in dozens of ways, all the while wearing a simple smile. The questions seemed outright simple and procedural, but somehow, Harvey felt that something was slightly amiss.The way White Horse questioned Harvey seemed as though he was trying to frame Harvey.If it were anybody else, they would’ve played right into the trap.When the same question was asked for the thirty-first time, it was already noon the next day.However, the three Dragon Palace members remained expressionless, as if they were already used to this.Harvey finished his tenth cup of coffee, and finally stood up to leave. “Alright, White Horse. It’s been the thirty-first time you asked this question. I answered you truthfully for the last thirty times,” Harvey said calmly.“I can’t be bothered to answer you again.”“If there’s anything else, feel free to cont
Harvey’s actions were quite casual. His face held no expression, and his tone was dripping with sarcasm. Queenie slapped Harvey’s hand away and backed away in an instant.“Break his hand right now!” she exclaimed.Clack, clack!Her subordinates behind her took off the safeties of their firearms and aimed at Harvey’s limbs.Murderous intent could also be felt from outside the room, directed straight at Harvey.These people would not hesitate to pull the trigger if Queenie gave the order.Feeling danger, Harvey calmly forwarded a text on his phone. Then, he shrugged and pointed at his right shoulder.“Do it, then. See if you can cripple me,” he challenged, though his tone was calm.“If you can’t do it, I’ll make sure you get crippled instead.”“I do want to see if a mere vice helm of Dragon Palace’s branch would dare to cripple one of Longmen’s branch leaders without any solid proof.”Harvey remained emotionless all throughout. While he looked down on his position as branch
Harvey glanced at Queenie, smiling faintly. “Alright. Enough talk,” he finally said.“Since you’ve detained me, you should at least let me see some proof, right?”“Someone had footage on what happened yesterday. Faye was the one who planted the bomb yesterday,” Queenie replied slowly, glaring at Harvey.“Before she detonated the bomb, you stood up and broke the glass next to you. That’s how you got away from the explosion.”“Judging from this, we have reason to believe that you were the one who gave the order.”“When we were extracting evidence from the Las Vegas Police Station, we found out that Yoana deleted this part of the footage since it reflects badly on you. From this alone, we have proof that you’re involved in this accident!”“The entire thing is connected to you, Harvey.”“You must take responsibility for what happened!”Queenie brought out a single piece of evidence, throwing Harvey under the bus without any hesitation.Harvey, however, continued looking calmly a
Harvey kept mum, his face blank and devoid of any emotion.He had already made arrangements before he entered Dragon Palace’s branch.He figured out that the series of events was most likely Vince’s plan, whom he never even met before…Since that was the case, Harvey wouldn’t mind dealing with this ignorant man.Soon, Harvey was taken to a bigger room by the Dragon Palace members.The room resembled a court during ancient times, with a podium at the front. Two men in uniforms stood beside it, firearms in hand.On the walls next to Harvey hung old paintings and calligraphy.“For the country and its people!”“Incorruptible spirit!”“Carve history with one’s own name!”Wait…Harvey would occasionally make loud exclamations of delight while admiring the paintings. His actions would make others mistake him for a visitor or a supervisor.When he was almost done with his sightseeing, rapid footsteps could be heard from outside.The door opened, and in walked several members of Dr
However, the Dragon Palace members acted as if they didn’t see or hear anything. Instead they watched on coldly, as if they were delighting in their revenge.Yoana ran forward to protect his brother.“Stop! Stop fighting!” she screamed.Grab!Before Yoana could finish talking, Tyrell grabbed her by the neck and swung his palm across her face.“You b*tch! Who gave you the right to yell at me?!”“Did you know that my family lost billions of dollars because of your stupidity?!”“People like you should be our servants! You have to do whatever we tell you to!”“If my second brother wants to sleep with you, you let him!”“If you resist, you die!”Tyrell slapped Yoana a few more times until she groaned in pain. Bright red palm prints stained her once pretty face.“Stop!”Harvey’s face turned ugly when he saw Tyrell’s vicious tyranny. Slap!However, Tyrell ignored him and slapped Yoana again.“When I’m done with these damn bastards, I’ll come for you, Harvey!” Tyrell coldly ex
Bang!Harvey didn’t waste any time. As he held Tyrell by the neck, he took the gun from Tyrell’s waist…And pulled the trigger right on Tyrell’s left knee.A loud bang echoed throughout the hall.Everyone was looking at Harvey with disbelieving eyes, shocked beyond anything.Even Queenie stood still, frozen. She was at loss for words. In a place like this, under these circumstances, Harvey actually took action and pulled the trigger without an ounce of hesitation!Was he insane? Or perhaps, he really had the power to act that way?That said, Harvey really was brave. Everyone had to admit that fact.Those who entered the Dragon Palace’s building were usually scared witless. They wouldn’t waste a second to kneel if they were forced to.But Harvey was in his own world. He was calm, yet ruthless at the same time.Edwin let out a faint grin. He knew that nobody could keep Harvey down, even if Harvey was in Hong Kong or Las Vegas.Yoana froze completely. She wanted to say someth
Once Harvey was at the Dragon Gate training hall, he narrowed his eyes.A huge crowd was right outside the entrance of the training hall. He counted at least a thousand of them with just a glance.They were all either martial arts elites or mutants. None of them were normal human beings.Of course, these people were mostly here to watch the show.There were also plenty of Islander men and women in their traditional summer garbs. All of them looked quite eager. Harvey could tell from first glance that they were either from Sky Plane or had the right to enter Grand City due to being at the top of the social pyramid in the Island Nation. All of them were filled with anger and resentment after Harvey chided them as weaklings. They were here to try and reclaim their dignity.When Harvey appeared, all of them instantly turned around. The anger within their eyes is apparent."Harvey York! Are you sure you want to go your own way? You're quite brave to challenge the entire Island Natio
"Dominating the Veiled Sanctuary?" Harvey asked Alexei curiously.Alexei scoffed. "Many years ago, a prodigy was born in the Veiled Sanctuary. He was said to be just a servant born into a small family. However, his powers grew exponentially after he accidentally learned martial arts."He became a King of Arms when he was 18, and then a True Warrior at 22. After that, he secretly stole the martial arts techniques from all the schools and mastered them. Finally, when he was 30 years old, he created his own martial art technique that had never appeared in the Veiled Sanctuary—the Technique of Elephants and Dragons."It's said that those trained in this technique can possess the power of ten elephants and ten dragons. They can forcefully tear apart space itself and step into the void, reaching unity between Man and Nature. Unfortunately, he has too little influence in Veiled Sanctuary. He stole too many secrets from the different schools, causing him to offend the higher-ups."In the
"Of course, only people from Grand City are supporting him. Whether it was Sky Plane, Sky Garden, Lost City, or the other locations, everyone criticized Harvey. They believed that we should have peace with all the other Sacred Lands. Harvey's existence would only cause fights between all of us."But the so-called peace from these Sacred Lands were only maintained because they were able to benefit from Grand City. Once Harvey's here and becomes mayor, the other Sacred Lands won't be able to get used to it," Geoffrey said.He was obviously quite pleased with this.For a long time, Grand City needed someone who could take control of the big picture. One of the reasons the E-A Battlefield occurred in the past was because the mayor went missing, and all the other Sacred Lands believed they could take advantage of this situation. That was why the five nations had worked together at the time.Luckily, the Chief Instructor was there at the time. He helped them defeat all their enemies and
When Harvey remembered that Vaida was schizophrenic, he suppressed the discomfort inside of him and smiled. "Ms. Vaida, why didn't you go back to rest? Isn't it boring to be at my place?"Vaida opened the door leading to the dining room. "I don't feel bored at all. I've been cooking for you the entire day. Since you're the man of my destiny, I'm simply doing what I'm supposed to, aren't I?"Cough!Harvey couldn't stop himself from coughing before saying, "Thanks, then.""That won't do, Senior Vaida! We grew up together and have known each other for almost two decades. You've never cooked for me. What's this, then? Do I really have no place in your heart?" Alexei said, almost to the point of crying and rolling on the ground.Vaida shot him a disappointed look. "Oh, you! Look at yourself. Are you acting like a man? I'm not expecting you to become an important person, but even if you're set on being someone spoiled rotten, can you at least be like a proper one? I heard that when I
With just a simple move, the Islander swordsman screamed in pain and crashed to the ground. He didn't even have the chance to spar with Harvey.An Islander wrestler immediately rushed out of the crowd. "I dare you to try me, Harvey!" Harvey calmly kicked a chair at the wrestler, who didn't even manage to enter the door before collapsing on the ground."Fool!""Die!"One by one, the Island Nation's elites attacked, but none of them could pass through the entrance into the training hall before collapsing.Harvey's technique was indeed very terrifying. What Harvey did without exerting much effort turned all the Islanders' excitement into despair. All the Islanders that had collapsed had some reputation in Grand City. But now, they were nothing before Harvey.Meanwhile, those from Country H were overjoyed. Many of them started to go around and spread the good news throughout Grand City.Harvey's reputation had spread in Grand City. A lot of people knew that the representative of
"All you Islanders are always acting so arrogantly in our territory. You'll sneer at us, calling us weaklings every now and then. Now, we simply stated the fact that you're weaklings too—and you find it hard to accept? Don't you understand that you should treat others how you like to be treated? If you're not weaklings before him, what are you then? Feces?"Hale shouted at the Islanders fearlessly, feeling refreshed as he did it. He seemed to have suffered a lot at the hands of Sky Plane, so he didn't hold back when he started his speech. It was enough to make the Islanders hear it go mad.However, Hale wasn't scared at all. Instead, he pointed at the Islanders and went on, "Yapping of sore losers."The Islander with the mustache almost went crazy. "Do you know what you're doing? You're trying to start a war! Can you bear this responsibility?"The other Islanders also joined in; all of them called for war, as if that would be enough to threaten Harvey. However, Hale didn't even b
Harvey couldn't tell what Hale was up to by borrowing his influence, but he knew very well that what he needed to do right now was to liven Grand City up. It would be best if he could cause a wave. Only then would he have the opportunity to achieve his goals.That was why he didn't stop Hale, despite not knowing what Hale was up to. Instead, Harvey let Hale do as he wanted.Hale took a deep breath. His eyes carried a meaningful gaze as he looked at Harvey, and he said with a dry smile, "What I'm going to do is to be quite intense, but I believe you can take it."Harvey chuckled. "Is it the kind that I prefer?""I don't know if you'll like it, but I believe you won't hate it," Hale said.Harvey clapped. "Sure. Let me see just how much of a ruckus your method that I won't hate will cause in Grand City!"Hale didn't waste his breath and grabbed a white piece of cloth and started painting something. Then, he immediately put it at the entrance of the training hall. As soon as the clot
There was cheer from the crowd when they saw how Harvey could easily defeat those from the Sky Plane and win back the pride of Grand City and the people from Country H.At this time, a middle-aged man, somewhat short and plump, approached Harvey with admiration on his face. "The way you fight is brilliant, friend. Most importantly, you managed to defeat the haughty Islanders without any trouble. Simply brilliant! You've won all our admiration!""That's right!" The people in the crowd all nodded, the admiration on their faces clear.It was said that amateurs watch the show for excitement, while the experts grasp the details. However, the people who formed the crowd this time were mostly martial arts elites. They understood just how powerful Harvey was from how he easily defeated Kuro, Mikan, and the other Islanders."It doesn't matter whether I earn your admiration or not," Harvey said with a faint smile as he entered the training hall. "Since you're not my training hall's student
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
