Louis’s eyes twitched frantically. He was a very persistent man, but he still felt powerless when facing Harvey.“Are you really not scared of dying?!” he exclaimed, his tone grim.“Of course I am. Who isn’t?”“But I’m just some nobody. What about you?” Harvey said calmly.“You’re one of Four Masters of Hong Kong, the invincible fighter who roams the Dark Island. You have a bright future ahead of you!”“If we die together, I’d have nothing to lose.”“When I die, everyone will forget about me.”“But they’ll remember you for being a clown who died for the sake of vain pride!”The two were talking casually, but Helena and the others behind them had their eyes twitching frantically.One madman was already scary enough.But two of them were simply terrifying!They were on the verge of leaking their pants at this very moment.Louis sighed and tried to relent.“I have to admit, Kid. You’re bold! You’re strong! I admire you!”“I’ll admit defeat for this!”“I apologize!”“I was
Ding, ding, ding!The grenade fell onto the ground and rolled a few times, but it didn’t explode. Instead, it remained swaying in one spot.The crowd was drenched in cold sweat, shivering in fear.“Ah. It didn’t explode?”“Sorry. This one must’ve been broken.”Harvey showed a look of surprise before casually pulling out another grenade on Louis’s chest and taking off the safety pin.“I’ll let her go! I’ll give her back right now!”Before Louis could react, Kaitlyn immediately jumped out of hiding and screamed her surrender.Nobody wanted to die. Kaitlyn even less so, especially after having such a close shave with death.Her life had been smooth sailing. Of course she wouldn’t want to die a dog’s death here!Louis took a deep breath, his face horribly twisted. At the same time, he could smell the foul stench emitting from his body.He wanted to slam his head on the ground so badly.He never thought he would be this scared in his entire life.With a phone call from Kaitly
Louis’s face had almost sunk to the ground at this moment. Sensing the murderous intent on Harvey, he gritted his teeth and forced himself to choke out the words, “I’m sorry.”Harvey smiled after hearing those words. Slowly, he raised his leg and released Louis. Louis didn’t get up instantly, either.He knelt, his back straight as he leveled Harvey with a scornful look. He looked just like an untamed beast.“Harvey? So you’re that Harvey?!”“Good! I’ll remember everything today!”“You should know that there are always people stronger than you, Harvey!”“I’ll definitely settle scores with you for what happened tonight!”Harvey chuckled.“Do you know what I hate the most? People who talk big!”Harvey immediately grabbed Louis’s neck.Without hesitation, he shoved the grenade without a safety pin right into Louis’s mouth!“Since you talk so big, you better keep this in.”“If you talk again, you shouldn’t blame me if this baby explodes!”Harvey reached out and tapped Louis’s
Lexie wasn’t focused on any of this at all. She pondered over the situation before asking, “Is he that bold? He threw the grenade on the ground?”“The safety pin’s off, right? Why didn't it explode?”Vince sipped his tea before replying.“Someone checked the grenade after the whole thing passed. Turns out, it was broken. The explosives inside were in truth faulty.”“I don’t know if that brat’s lucky enough to get a broken grenade, or if he already knew about it…”“But his actions took the crowd by surprise.”Vince then played a video on his phone and watched it with Lexie.The two could see how the entire thing played out.After rewatching the video about three times, both of them let out quiet sights.It didn’t matter how Harvey did it, but he had total control over the situation as soon as he stepped inside Emerald Club.Lexie sighed again as she glanced at the screen, looking forlorn.“This guy has such good luck with women…”“Yoana, Leslie, and now Irene…”“All three h
#Edwin seemed slightly different compared to before.His previous frivolous, rich playboy attitude was replaced by stern severity. Never had he looked so serious in his life.Harvey was relieved. It seemed the lesson that night was worth it, after all.“You’ve been pushed around the entire night. Why don’t you take some rest?” he suggested.He then poured himself a cup of tea before taking a sip.Edwin trembled when he saw Harvey.“I found some more info to tell you about, Sir York,” he began, sounding quite hesitant.“But since you were resting, I didn’t want to bother you.”“Thanks for your hard work,” Harvey said.“It’s nothing.”Edwin shook his head, waving off the praise.“I couldn’t sleep, anyway.Harvey chuckled.“Can’t sleep? Are you still angry? Or are you vengeful now?”“Neither.”Edwin shook his head again.“While I was still with the Sword Camp, you said that I needed to face my own heart to have real courage. That way, I’d be able to climb the ranks and ris
At this moment, everyone from the Johnson family was sitting in the brightly lit living room with grim looks. They seemed to be waiting for something.Nobody mentioned anything about welcoming Irene home.Bang!In the midst of their unease, a loud sound could be heard from the front door.Immediately after, several black vans appeared. Disciples of the Longmen’s Law Enforcement stepped out of the cars, armed and dangerous. They looked ready to kill. The Longmen disciples who were in charge of guarding the Johnson Residence looked quite startled, not daring to make any sudden moves.The disciples of Longmen’s Law Enforcement scoffed derisively before surrounding the entire place.Carrie emerged, her face filled with valiant righteousness. She strode forward haughtily, followed by her equally arrogant subordinates. “What are you doing?” Irene demanded instinctively.Slap!Carrie ignored her and sent her flying with a slap on the face.She then took out her phone and sized
“What are you trying to do here?!” Irene’s father was filled with rage.Their family had never encountered such humiliation, even after governing Longmen’s Hong Kong and Las Vegas branch for so many years. Morgan’s whereabouts were unknown, and now, his own daughter was forcefully dragged away.What were these people trying to do?“What’re we trying to do?” Carrie said calmly.“It’s simple. We’re looking for testimonies and evidence. I’m sure you can provide this for us, judging from the success of your family.”“I’ll give you half an hour to find evidence of your family conspiring with outsiders.”“If not, don’t blame me for prying the evidence out of your family!”The entire Johnson family’s expressions worsened after hearing Carrie’s words.Clearly, this woman was planning to frame them.“All of you will surely be punished for doing something like this on your own!” Irene’s father exclaimed.Slap!Carrie sent him flying with another slap on the face.“Punished?!”“G
“Let me tell you! If I say that your family is guilty of a crime, then that’s the only truth!”“You dare go against my will?”“Who do you think you are?!”“Even God won’t be able to save your family now!”“For supporting Harvey, you’re all dead!”At these words, more disciples stepped forward with wretched smiles.They had suffered great losses against Harvey previously, but now, they were brimming full of vigor. Their only thought was to redeem their pride by destroying the Johnsons.Boom!Right as the disciples were about to take action, the door was immediately kicked open.The ancient bronze door flew out, smashing to the ground. A man emerged, his arms crossed over his chest in a gesture of dominance.“I heard that Longmen’s Law Enforcement charged me for conspiring with outsiders while I’m gone.”“You even tried to get the Johnsons to frame me.”“Was the lesson I taught you all before not enough for you?”“Do you have a death wish?”Right after the door was broken,
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
"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
