The elites already had their firearms with safeties off beforehand. Red dots shone on Rozak and his men before they realized what was happening.At least four dots could be seen on every single knight.The fierce knights were now so scared, they didn’t dare budge even a single inch.They knew full well what those red dots were.If they did anything stupid, they would no doubt perish once someone pulled the trigger.One of the knights, however, didn’t believe that the York elites would actually take action.He rolled to the front and pounced at Selena, ready to capture her alive.Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!Countless bullets quietly rained on the knight; bullet holes could be seen all over his body.Cold sweat drenched Rozak’s back. A member of the Knights Templar was turned into mush right before his very eyes!The smell of blood filled the air, making the place completely dense. Rozak and his men’s intention of fighting their way out was immediately squashed as well.“I just bo
“I have to admit! Even though that fourth princess of yours is just an outcast, she’s still pretty ruthless!”“The moment she got word that she lost Jason, she didn’t even hesitate to launch an attack.”“It’s a shame that she’s going up against Harvey.”Selena felt quite a bit of admiration toward Harvey as she spoke of him. Naturally, she was more and more content with her future son-in-law.Rozak’s face turned horrible after hearing Selena’s words.He took action only half an hour ago. Everything had been decided on the spot. It was clearly a stroke of genius…Yet, Harvey managed to see through the entire plan.That man even deliberately set up a trap just for Rozak!A hint of fear pulsated in Rozak’s chest; the same fear he felt on the Euro-American battlefield.Rozak was so terrified by the ancient eastern country, he couldn’t even hold his firearm…“Drop your weapons,” Selena said calmly.“I’m getting old. I don’t like killing.”“That said, it doesn’t mean I won’t kill
“Kneel and beg for it,” Harvey replied, calm.“If you do, I’ll give you a chance to save them.”‘Kneel?!’‘Beg?!’Everyone was shocked to hear those words. Even Fabian, Morgan, and the others, who were having breakfast with Harvey, couldn’t stop their jaws from dropping.‘What’s going on?!’‘Did he just say he wanted the fourth princess to kneel?!’For a long time, The Empire was the strongest country of them all.Even though the fourth successor of the throne probably had no chance sitting on the throne, her status was still immensely powerful.When the fourth princess traveled on behalf of The Empire, she would still be treated like the leader of a nation.The citizens and even royalty would pay their respects to her.Some would even write an entire speech a month prior, just to say a few words in front of her.Everyone would be terrified to offend the fourth princess and The Empire.Yet, Harvey demanded her to kneel and apologize.This was no longer a challenge.This
Everyone was baffled over the turn of events.When Hong Kong was once ruled by The Empire, even the governor would have to kneel on the side of the street just to welcome the princesses…Yet now, Harvey was the one demanding The Empire’s fourth princess to kneel!To top it off, he looked as if this was just par for the course. He hadn’t shown not even an ounce of respect to the fourth princess!Not only was her pampered ego being rightfully bashed, but The Empire’s royal family was also being ridiculed.At this very moment, the fourth princess was boiling with anger.At the same time, she knew full well that Harvey was forcing her into a corner.If she knelt, she would end up in Harvey’s hands sooner or later.And if everyone were to catch wind of what happened, her reputation within The Empire would be completely tarnished.“How dare you insult me, you b*stard?!”The fourth princess was utterly enraged.She let out a cold shrill laugh before kicking Harvey’s dining table.
“Let’s not talk about stuff that far ahead…”“After you tried to assassinate Lady Judd with your men last night, I should just end your life with a single slap right now.”“And I guarantee you that The Empire won’t even dare make a single sound after you die!”“Do you want to try?”Harvey’s expression was as cold as ice.The noble status of The Empire’s royal family meant nothing to him.“For the sake of Princess Victoria, I’ll give you one more chance.”“You either kneel, or you get out.”“Choose yourself.”“You’re beyond arrogant!”A blonde member of the Knights Templar screamed, unable to hold back his anger anymore.His companions were already sent flying, but after seeing his princess being humiliated, he gritted his teeth and stomped forward without hesitation.The Knights Templar were sworn to protect their princess. They would never sit and watch as their princess was being put down.“Roosevelt! Stand down!”The fourth princess, however, immediately stopped her su
This was humiliation!Utter humiliation!At this very moment, Roosevelt’s face was twisted into a horrible expression.He tried to get back up, but the strength in his knees disappeared after just a glance at Harvey’s calm gaze.His entire body was warning him that he would only die if he forced himself up.Harvey completely ignored the knight kneeling on the ground, and shifted his gaze toward the fourth princess.“Fourth Princess. Looks like your knight knows how to read the room better than you.”“You have three seconds…”“B*stard!”“You’ve crossed the line!”Several knights pounced forward while shouting furiously at Harvey.But before they could do anything, Edwin immediately showed up with a group of guards to stop them.“One second…” Harvey said casually, continuing to count. It was as if he didn’t see everything that had happened.“If you’re still not choosing, then I’m sorry, but I’ll have to do it for you…”“Damn you! Damn you!”The fourth princess was shiverin
Harvey wiped his hands before giving her a calm reply. “Business isn’t done this way, princess.”“Before we talk about letting the people go, shouldn’t we first decide whether Jason’s going to die or not?”“Don’t forget! According to the contract, his life is mine. He’s my servant. He bites whoever I tell him to.”“If you want him to live, then kill Vince in exchange.”“If he dies, Jason lives. The deal’s still on. I have no intention to call it off.”The fourth princess took a deep breath.“I know you’re trying to turn Hong Kong and Las Vegas’s wealthy families against The Empire, Harvey.”“That way, The Empire would have no way to meddle in the affairs here.”“Your plan to end Vince’s life using Jason is pretty cunning, I admit.”“That said, you’re overestimating me.”“I don’t represent The Empire’s royal family.”“Even if I go against everyone here, it doesn’t mean that they’re turning against The Empire.”“The Empire’s connection with Hong Kong and Las Vegas is really d
“Do you not understand me, Harvey?!”The fourth princess’s tone had become slightly colder.“Didn’t I just tell you?”“Number one: there’s no point in killing Vince!”“Number two: I don't even have enough power to take him down!”“You can name any other request!”“As long as it’s not out of my reach, I’ll satisfy you!”The fourth princess slightly gritted her teeth, as if she had come to a conclusion.“Even if you want to do strange things with me, I’ll fulfill your wishes!”The fourth princess revealed her pale shoulder to show her sincerity.“Sorry. You’re not worthy.”Harvey chuckled calmly.“I have no interest in being a third wheel.”“Also, you have no say in whether there’s a point in killing Vince. I call the shots here.”“Even if I can’t break off The Empire’s connection to Hong Kong’s wealthy families, as long as I’m happy, you’ll have to find a way to deal with him.”“If you can’t even kill Vince, how am I supposed to trust you?”“I’ll believe you when Vince i
In Djinn's understanding, Neve was just your usual run-of-the-mill blue blood in Grand City. How did she know so much? How could she learn that they were coming and made preparations for them?Neve coldly answered, "Of course, I can't foretell what will happen. But what if someone wanted to do me a favor and told me to pay more attention? What do you think of the possibility of this person being the same person as the one who told you to come here?""Told me to come here?" Djinn's expression changed. "That damn fool Da…"Then, he suddenly realized what was happening. "You tricked me, woman?!""Tricked you?" Neve spoke with a smile. "I'm not tricking you. But, the person behind me has already foreseen everything.""The person behind you?" Djinn's eyes twitched again. "Just who is this person behind you? Is it her?""No. Sis Vaida is here just to protect me. Oh, right. Her name is the Swarm Queen."When hearing this name, Djinn's eyes grew wide. As one of the elites of Sky Plane,
To the Islanders, whether it was killed or be killed, it did not matter much. During the Warring States, their entire civilization almost became extinct.This was nothing at all.However, all the elites who accompanied Djinn were elites from Sky Plane. To think that they died terribly… How could it not make him fearful? Djinn thought that while it would not be a walk in the park to complete this mission, he still needed to put in some effort.But he never expected that all the people he took with him had all crumpled on the ground, dead. They were Kings of Arms elites. Whether it was the swordsmen from the Origin Sword Style or the ninjas from the Origin Ninjustu, they were all the backbone of their respective schools. Each one of them required a lot of time and effort to train.He did not expect them to all die in such a terrifying manner. All he had left to say was this woman in white was simply too frightening.But when faced with his question, the woman in white did not say an
This changed Djinn's expression. Then, he finally saw the name of the drama. There was only one word shown. Ambush.The moment Djinn saw that word, his expression turned extremely dark."Something's wrong! Hear my orders, everyone! Take your drugs and attack with full force! Kill Neve Foster!" Djinn was also someone quite decisive. Once he noticed something was amiss with the current situation, he did not retreat and even quickly gave his orders.At this point, they were no longer in a position to retreat. As he made his orders, all the ninjas and swordsmen pulled out the longsword by their waists. All of them were ready to pounce at their target.But no matter how strong they were, they could not stop themselves from making war cries, as if they did not care about their own lives. However, the expected battle to the deaths did not occur at all. When the Island Nation elites cried out, the white figure in the living room reappeared in a flash.At this time, the Island Nation elite
Shortly, a ninja in black garb appeared not far away in front of them. He was the scout sent to investigate ahead. The scout's figure appeared right before Djinn. He bowed and said, "Lord Djinn."Djinn coldly asked, "How's the situation ahead?"The scout whispered, "I've confirmed that Geoffrey has joined the Grand City's Seven Families Joint Meeting. Three-fourths of the Universal Sect's elites had gone to the meeting. I have also confirmed that the place Neve stayed in, a courtyard at the back, isn't that strictly guarded. Our people have already hacked the security cameras in our route. We can immediately enter."Then, the scout quickly took out his tablet and showed Djinn some videos and pictures. Djinn looked at them and could not help but exclaim, "Good. Very good. Then let's do this together. Everyone, remember that we must finish this as quickly as possible. Our objective is to kill Neve and ignore everyone else. Understand?"Djinn's tone was low and serious."Yes!" All th
"That should work," said Coco after considering it. "I never liked Neve for the longest time. If we can pin her death on Vaida and Harvey, there's no harm to me at all. But we can't use anyone from Parkerville, so I'll need to make some arrangements…""No need for that," Dan said. "No matter how weak the Fosters are, they're still one of the Seven Families of Grand City. No one can touch them if one doesn't give them their all. It's best to get Sverker or Ghostface to kill her. I've been sealing all the entrances so far and not letting the people from Sky Plane enter. I believe they're very willing to cooperate if I simply ask for a favor."Dan gave it a deep thought after a while. Then, he smiled and said, "Right, I'll personally inform Clarion about this. Telling him that his beloved is in danger. I wonder, will it be Harvey's fault again if Clarion went to save her without making any preparations and ended up dying?"Coco's expression was merciless when she heard Dan's plans, thi
When Coco heard what Dan had to say, she gave him an expectant look. "Dan, when you finally become mayor, I'll be more than just the princess of Parkerville. I will be the princess of the entire Grand City! Let's see who dares to cross me then!"Then, Dan smiled gently at Coco. "It's good that you finally understand this.""But, the problem is that I still can't let this go! Vaida and Harvey have crossed a line! How could they slap a face as pretty as mine? How ridiculous!" Coco held her still-swollen face, looking vicious."Not to mention, Vaida even wanted me to reimburse her for all the profit I had already taken from the restaurant! But am I supposed to give that up? I can't bear the loss of face!" Coco said as a cold glint appeared in her eyes. It was obvious that she was never going to let it slide."Do you really want to get revenge?" Dan asked after giving it a thought. "The only person who could officially keep the Seven Families under control was the Hierophant. You can t
"He might look like a simple man, but every time he benefits from something, it's always because of good luck. But when someone is always this lucky, then the luck becomes part of his power. In the past, I also believed that I could easily crush him. But the result? Just how much have we lost in Grand City? "Clarion, Durandal… Other than these two, how many more must we sacrifice? How many people must we lose? That's why when we're targeting him, whether we choose peace or war, we must think things through and consider the consequences. Otherwise, we might be in huge trouble if we're careless…"Obviously, Dan was learning from his past mistakes. After failing multiple times, he had a deep understanding of Harvey. Even if her most beloved sister was utterly humiliated, even if Parkerville was humiliated entirely, Dan still believed that he needed to be careful about this. Since no one could tell who would come up on top if this continued."Fine. Since we can't secretly attack or get
Just when Harvey and Alexei were shocked at the truth Vaida had revealed, Coco was back in her home. Not only was Coco still awake, but she was also pacing around Dan's room with an angered expression."Of course, I know he's the representative of the Martial Arts Alliance and also know that he's Vaida's so-called man of destiny. He even humiliated Sky Plane at the training hall earlier. And then, he even made that traitor Clarion turn on you after what happened at the casino."But are we supposed to be scared of him because of all this? Kill him! Kill him now! I believe with your power, you have all the means to make him suffer and die in Grand City! What right does an outsider have to show off like that in Grand City? Are you kidding me?!"Coco no longer had the charm and grace when she was outside. All that was on her beautiful face was a vengeful expression. She wished she could stomp on Harvey right now and kill him using her high heels.Dan ignored her and simply drank the ho
When Coco heard what Harvey had said, her face twisted in anger. She wished she could pounce at him and tear his flesh with her teeth. But the last of her conscience made her suppress her anger.All these years, she called herself the princess of Grand City and openly said she could one-up all the women in this city, becoming the so-called number one lady. As for Vaida, the former number one? Coco did not pay her much attention and simply treated her as a mental patient who was not even worth her time.But now, she needed to apologize to Vaida?At that moment, all Coco could feel was her utter suffocation. But if she refused to apologize, Harvey would not let her be. He might even slap her again.Meanwhile, if she called reinforcements from Dan and Parkerville, it might not be enough to suppress this fool. Not to mention, this might make her the laughingstock of Grand City.When those thoughts crossed her mind, Coco decided to suppress her anger and end this situation. Once this w
