“Presumptuous!”“Son of a b*tch!”“How dare you speak so rudely to Young Master York! Do you want to die?!”Several men and women in Chinese outfits behind Harvey glared at him fiercely.Sure, Harvey’s skills were terrifying. He even managed to kill Lion King with only one slap…But for these big shots from the upper circle of Hong Kong and Las Vegas, it didn’t matter how good Harvey was. In the end, he was just a violent thug.Before their noble background and influence, he was no better than garbage!No matter how good Harvey was, could he fight the government’s wrath?This wasn’t the era where one could wander around with just a sword.Combat skills were indeed very rare in this era, but still, it was nothing special.Vince waved his hand to stop the crowd from turning hostile. He leveled Harvey with a thoughtful look and said, “Do you want to take me down with you?”Harvey smiled. “What are you talking about, Young Lord York? What do you mean, taking you down with me?”
Ten minutes later, a large group of inspectors with live ammunition rushed in and instantly controlled the entire crowd.More than ten media reporters arrived as well, like sharks that had sensed blood in the water.The Yorks of Hong Kong and Las Vegas, Briewood, Shinkage Way and others were involved in the night’s big news.Any of the labels Harvey said were enough to make the news a major headline. Not to mention, there were many elements involved. The Hong Kong and Las Vegas Police Station didn’t dare to bend the law for personal gain, and knew that they must handle this matter impartially.Even Vince York, who had an extremely high status in Hong Kong and Las Vegas, couldn’t escape and was taken away for questioning.The inspectors of the Hong Kong and Las Vegas Police Station didn’t dare harbor any bad intentions. All of them ensured that everything was done impartially under the supervision of the media.Nearly a hundred of the people present were sent to Kowloon City Pol
Yoana covered her mouth, chuckling over Harvey’s words.If they only reported to the police without any evidence, they would only raise questions and baseless conspiracies among the people.Now that everything was exposed to the whole world, this matter would certainly be dealt with impartially.Step, step, step.As soon as the two finished speaking, an inspector in uniform walked in.It was a cool and short-haired female inspector, a mixed-race beauty with a high nose and deep eye sockets. Her entire appearance screams exotic.‘Leslie Clarke’ was written on the name tag pinned to her chest.Leslie took a deep look at Harvey at this moment before glancing at Yoana. In a cold voice, she said haughtily, “Ms. Mendoza, you can bail this man out if you so wished.”“However, he won’t be able to leave Hong Kong for about two weeks. He must be here at any time to listen to the summons from the police station.”Yoana flashed Leslie a small smile. “Don’t worry, Ms. Clarke. Harvey’s the
Harvey walked out of the Kowloon City Police Station ten minutes later. As he did so, he cast a mocking glance at several Briewood gangsters staring at him not far away.Grinning, he then looked back at the police station not far away. “The first-in-command of Hong Kong is quite interesting.”“He didn’t take it personally, and also didn’t bend the law for the Yorks of Hong Kong and Las Vegas. Not bad.”Yoana laughed. “True. But since he handled the case impartially, he offended the Yorks of Hong Kong and Las Vegas, the Shinkage Way of Island Nation, and Briewood.”“Not to mention… Whether he can still secure the position of the first-in-command in the future or otherwise, he’s going to face a lot of trouble.”Harvey smiled. “Hong Kong isn’t like Las Vegas. It’s very complicated. What’s the name of that first-in-command of Hong Kong again?”Yoana said, “Toby Clarke.”“Since Toby’s the first-in-command of Hong Kong, then it indicates that he’s quite powerful. Someone needs him to
As Zina was about to pester Harvey to go for breakfast, a graceful figure walked out from the Kowloon City Police Station not far away.It was Leslie Clarke.She narrowed her eyes at Harvey, and then looked at Zina, who was joking around with Harvey. Then, she snorted coldly.“What garbage!”Leslie bit her lip after that scornful outburst, and then went her way. Yoana and Zina’s eyes fell on Leslie at the same time. They couldn’t understand why the daughter of the first-in-command suddenly came out again.Could the police be regretting their decision and wanted to arrest Harvey?Harvey stared curiously at Leslie, keen to see how she would act. If he must, he wouldn’t mind going to the police station again.After all, the one suffering a big headache from this whole situation was certainly not him.Leslie leveled a deep, penetrating stare at Harvey. Then, she said in a low voice, “Young Master York, may I have a word in private?”Harvey smiled. “They’re all my people. If you
Woosh, woosh, woosh!The sound of the branches penetrating the wind rang.Leslie seemed to have anticipated this and remained composed, indifferent to everything. She turned to look sarcastically at Harvey, keen to see him panicking over the sudden hectic situation.However, Harvey let her down.Harvey stood indifferently, his hands behind his back as he let the branches fly past him before landing behind him.Harvey narrowed his eyes as he looked at Toby, who wasn’t far away. This seemingly random test showcased Toby’s unknown prowess!What a character!While Harvey was thinking of this, Toby had already taken off the sunglasses and handed it over to his wife, Lady Clarke.He then took out a towel and wiped his palm. His speech carried a small hint of Hong Kong and Taiwan accent. “Not bad! Not bad!”“You’re so composed!”“With such a sturdy mentality despite your youth, it’s no wonder you could make me suffer a huge loss last night.”“Now, it seems that I really deserve it.
Toby felt resentful. He kept using more strength to the point where he used ninety percent of his power…But he soon realized that his power had no effect whatsoever. It started to hurt in between his fingers, as if something was being torn apart.“Not bad. Not bad at all.”Toby stopped testing Harvey’s strength immediately after.After sizing Harvey up, he said, “Not only are you extremely clever, but your skills and mentality are also one above the rest. You’ve completely bested me this time!”Toby made a gesture after that. His servants quickly moved two chairs and a table to their side.After making a gesture for Harvey to sit, Toby then poured a cup of tea for him before exquisite Hong Kong-styled pastries were served.Leslie was slightly confused. She didn’t think that her father would treat Harvey this well.This breakfast meeting should’ve been a trap for Harvey, but it turned into a long-awaited gathering all of a sudden.Toby sipped his aged black tea while glancing
“Secondly, rumors have been spreading outside about the Yorks of Hong Kong and the Briewood Gang constantly pressuring Governor Clarke. Right now, everyone’s watching the show. If there are any signs of you falling off your position, these people will surely find a way to bring you down. Hence, you’re using this meal to tell everyone that not only are you still in position, but you’re also going to be here for a very long time.“Finally, you’re looking for an ally. After all, not only did I deal with Dragon Palace’s branch after coming to Hong Kong and Las Vegas, but I also forced Vince’s hand a few times. That’s why you want to see how far I’ve gotten, and if I’m worth joining forces with you.”Leslie was slightly surprised after hearing Harvey’s explanation.She didn’t think that her father was under this much pressure last night to the point where he would need an outsider to explain the situation.At the same time, she was utterly shocked by Harvey’s intelligence and insight to
"Treason! This is treason!" Joven roared as he immediately assigned a crime to Harvey. "It's true the Country H Martial Arts Alliance's Representative is always the mayor of Grand City, but they must first go through all the necessary procedures first as well as obtaining the support of the Seven Families!"At most, you're just a candidate. You're not really the mayor of the Grand City! You're already calling yourself the mayor of this city before you have even become one, and you're even challenging the Peacekeeping Agency's authority! If you're really going to do this by the book, I can assure you that the Peacekeeping Agency will not vote you in!"And now, I will arrest you for treason!"Joven waved his hand, and the uniformed officers from the agency pulled out their repeating crossbows. From how aggressive they were, it was obvious that they were going to take Harvey down—even kill him."If I want to become the mayor of Grand City, I don't need anyone's agreement, and I don't
"You're the one that needs calcium! Our backbone is fine, thank you very much!" The short-haired woman was enraged. "Do you think someone narrow-minded like you can get cocky just because of a small victory? Do you know how powerful Sky Plane is? Do you know how weak you are? You're so narrow-minded! Forget about the strongest Origin Fist student, Mark, you can't even beat me! I'm telling you right now, you better…"Before she could even finish, Harvey frowned and immediately slapped her away. She was too noisy, and she wasted everyone's time!There was only silence when they saw Harvey slap the woman away.The Peacekeeping Agency in Grand City was in a unique position. They stood outside the normal hierarchy. Not only did they represent the will of the seven families, but they also represented the authority within Grand City.While many criticized Joven for becoming the spokesperson for Sky Plane, many would still fervently support him no matter where he went. Other than havin
"Don't you know what laws you have broken?" Joven snorted coldly, his face filled with arrogance. "Harvey, there's no need for you to act this way."Harvey's expression was cold. "I'm new to Grand City so I don't understand much about your so-called laws, but I'm also not interested in knowing them. But since you said I broke the law, as the Chief of the Peacekeeping Agency, you need to explain it to me, right?"Before Joven could say anything, the short-haired woman cut in coldly, "Harvey York. You intentionally targeted Sky Plane, a fine neighbor to Grand City. You intentionally used something as shameless as calling the Islanders weaklings to start a conflict between Country H and the Island Nation."You wanted to start a war between the two nations because of your personal vendetta. This is your crime…and an unpardonable one! Does it feel good when you put on the banner calling the Islanders weaklings? Do you think you're brilliant because you managed to defeat the practitioners
Harvey didn't react too much when he saw the man wearing the gray robe. However, Rachel was on high alert and stood next to Harvey with a frown. When Harvey noted what she was doing, he asked interestedly, "You know who this man is?""From the information I've gathered last night, this man is one of the persons in charge of Grand City's Peacekeeping Agency, Joven Greene. He's responsible for keeping the peace between the seven families. He's not that strong, but he represents the will of the seven families."When he handles the disputes between those from the Grand City and outsiders, he's usually very decisive. It's said that his relationship with the Islanders is quite good. Not only have they offered him several women, but they have also given him plenty of money and resources."The Island Nation must have pressured him regarding the matter of the cloth. It's normal to use such a relationship at a critical time…"After hearing what Rachel had to say about Joven, Harvey had s
After what had happened, the Dragon Gate training hall once again became Grand City's topic of conversation. The Islanders, other than gaining the title of being weaklings, also gained the reputation of being shameless.In just a few short hours, news of everything disgusting the Islanders did today quickly spread throughout Grand City. Anyone in Grand City with a conscience knew who to protect at a time like this.The Islanders, known for their haughtiness, became extremely unwelcome in Grand City. They didn't have any standards at all when taking actions and didn't even care about their reputation.Meanwhile, the Peacekeeping Agency was getting a headache as well. They had no choice but to increase their manpower and stop the Islanders from doing whatever they wanted after causing such a huge commotion. At the same time, they also asked Harvey to take the cloth down.Harvey didn't mind it much. The cloth in front of the training hall could be easily removed, but the resentment th
Everyone's eyes were on Harvey, wanting to see how he would solve this problem. The boy even gave Harvey a middle finger before hooking it, provoking him.Harvey simply looked at the boy curiously while enjoying his coffee, as if the boy was a clown. He could tell that the boy had trained in the Empty Hands Technique for a bit…and he really meant a little bit.If Harvey really did make his move, the boy would die instantly. Should that happen, things would become even more complicated. This was a truly despicable scheme. The Islanders' plots were just as appalling as ever.Harvey felt fortunate that he already knew that the Islanders' schemes could be quite vicious, so he had already made the necessary preparations.When the Islander with the mustache saw that Harvey didn't plan to attack nor kneel to surrender, he scoffed. "Are you scared? Or are you surrendering? Say something! Otherwise, attack! Do you think you're an ostrich and you can just hide your head in the sand? You ar
As he said that, the Islander switched on his phone and started streaming the event. It was obvious he wanted to see how Harvey was going to react to this.If Harvey agreed to fight ten warriors in one go, then the people he had arranged would swarm him and kill Harvey.If Harvey refused, then he would verbally humiliate Harvey.In other words, he had made full preparations for today.Harvey calmly drank a cup of tea and clapped. Rachel, who was fully prepared, walked from the back of the crowd. She turned on her phone and played a video clip on the TV screen. In the clip, it was obvious that Hale was the one who claimed Harvey could fight ten to one, not Harvey."What? Since when must our representative bear responsibility for something he has never said? If someone said he can fight 100 to 1 suddenly, should he fight a hundred men at the same time?" Rachel said.While fighting ten to one was something simple to Harvey, he wasn't interested in being involved in a plot the Island
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
