“You’re the one who gave these photos so you can screw with me, right?!”Harvey York chuckled.“That’s right. How are the angles? You like them?”“You’re naive! Even if the scandal’s exposed, you’ll only tarnish my name at most!“There’s nothing you can even do to hurt me!“You’re an adult, Harvey! You’re an upperclassman! Don’t you think you’re being a little ridiculous doing something like this?”The fourth princess coldly chuckled.Harvey seemed powerless to her at this moment. She already took action against his wife…But, not only did he not take his revenge, all he did was release some stupid scandal!This was just shameless!“Hurt you? Why should I? Are you even worthy?”Harvey calmly smiled.“Besides, what’s the point of killing you off anyway?“I might just go against The Empire’s entire royal family if I do something like that.“Victoria will probably come for me to settle the score.“That’s why I have no intention to touch you.“But, I feel pretty agitated if
The fourth princess immediately calmed down after seeing Marquis Dunkirk leave.She knew full well…That she had no choice other than to kill off Vince York.If not, Harvey York would definitely not let her off the hook.She had no choice other than to accept her fate.Without a second thought, the fourth princess took a deep breath and waved her hand at the secretary, who was slapped in the face.“Send word to Harvey. Tell him to let Jason Leo and the others go.“I’ll give him a fair statement.“I do hope to God that he keeps his word…”***Las Vegas, at the Mordu Casino-Palace.Harvey was in the study, looking at the mess sitting on the table.Queenie York walked in with a warm smile at this moment.“The fourth princess sent word, telling us to let go of the people you’re holding hostage and the elites my father took down.“She said she’s going to do as you said.“And that she hopes that you keep your end of the bargain.”Harvey chuckled.“Looks like our dear fourth
“Did that b*stard really say that?“He won’t let them go?!”The fourth princess held her porcelain teacup tightly, trying her best not to smash it on the ground.“That’s right,” said the secretary cautiously.“What should we do now, Fourth Princess? Should we round up our forces?“It’s already way past lunchtime. We’ll be in trouble if we don’t make arrangements now.”The fourth princess took a deep breath.“Maybe we should use Jason Leo’s plan B now,” she whispered.The secretary froze.“Plan B’s been constantly refined. If we need to, we can use it whenever we want.”“But that plan’s for Hong Kong and Las Vegas’ upper social circle in case they try to fight back. It might be a bit of an overkill if we use it now.”“You know nothing.“If we can’t deal with the situation right now, it’ll be useless even if we make plans A to Z.”The fourth princess took a deep breath before dialing a number on her phone.“Hello? Young Lord York?“I’d like to talk to you about Jason’s res
A cheerful laugh could be heard from the other side of the phone.“I have to admit. Those are pretty good conditions.“I’m almost moved!“But to be honest, these aren’t all that practical to me.“I don’t need you to rise to power.“No one would dare oppose me once I’m the head of my family.“Your so-called benefits are just cherries on top. They don’t help me in any way, shape or form.“I don’t need them.“That’s why I’m not all that interested.”The fourth princess took a deep breath.“I can introduce you to a princess of the royal family. She has a better chance of rising to power compared to me.“She’s never been married nor slept with anyone.“I think she’ll be the best candidate to be the lady of your family.”After pondering about the condition for a while, Vince York burst out laughing.“Right!“That’s settled then!“How do we save your men? Where are they right now? Tell me about the plan when you’re ready.“I’ll do everything in my power to help.“Just don’t
Vrooooom!Loud crackles could be heard in the gloomy sky…Fifteen minutes later, eight Land Cruisers zoomed right to the entrance of the abandoned villa.Gangsters with colorful hair, piercings, and tattoos all over were roaming around the courtyard.Those usually arrogant gangsters all trembled in their boots after seeing a few dozen strong men in black suits before they stumbled out of the place.There was no other choice!They knew that the men were clearly owned by a powerful master, so why would they even go against them in the first place?Let alone the loaded firearms in their hands…Before three minutes had passed, the men had already taken control of the whole place.After knowing where the men came from, the gangsters who owned the place could only smile while standing on the side.The young lord of the Yorks of Hong Kong had business here. Surely the gangsters would not even dare go against him.Hong Kong and Las Vegas were either governed by the Briewood Gang or
Clack!The moment Vince York kicked the door down, a smell of gunpowder wafted in the air.“B*stard!”Vince’s face had lost all color. He did not even have time to warn anyone before he used all his strength as a God of War to bust right out of the glass window, stumbling his way out of the villa.Booooom!Almost at the same time, an intense rumble could be felt from the basement. The huge villa collapsed in an instant.Massive explosions came one after another. Countless hidden explosives all blew up at the same time.It was an extremely shocking sight.Vince’s trusted subordinates were sent rolling on the ground. Most of them were already dead.The entire building was reduced to rubble. If Vince were not quick enough, he would have been dead already.But even so, he did not manage to evade all the debris flying toward him. Along with his past injuries, his speed was only half of what he could actually muster in his prime.In the midst of chaos, the God of War was covered i
Before the men around him even realized anything, a bullet flew right through.The man behind Vince York could feel a sharp pain in his chest as he was sent flying. He was already dead when he landed on the ground again.“Sniper!”The men in suits were all elites of the Yorks of Hong Kong and also Vince’s personal bodyguards. Naturally, they reacted quickly during times like this.Vince, who was on the ground, did not even have time to get angry then. He instinctively rolled behind cover in no time.The spot he laid on had a hole as big as a fist. If he were any slower, he would have been dead already.“Protect Young Lord York!”The elites frantically changed their expression before surrounding Vince while constantly screaming.They did not care about anyone else other than Vince at that moment.Pfffft!Another bullet flew right toward them, this time blowing off the head of one of the elite standing in front.Blood and dust mixed in the air.The elites were furious while t
It was Vince York’s first time facing such dire pressure in his entire life.There was no one to protect him. For the next five minutes, he only had himself to rely on.Bang bang bang!Right when Vince was hesitating whether to climb out from the sewer or not, a barrage of gunshots could be heard.The cement board in the sewer violently shook before it cracked…Vince laid low while showing a horrible look on his face. He had never needed to hide in such a disgusting place before!This was his biggest humiliation!Vince frowned while gritting his teeth. He was confused. Why would the sniper even do such a useless thing?Vince was sitting in a blind spot. The sniper knew where he was, but there was no way Vince could be shot for the time being.Typically speaking, the cement board was his life raft. He could use it to block the next attack…Vince’s face darkened instantly. He realized that the cement board was starting to sway after being shaken by a barrage of gunshots.“Not
"I'll give you ten minutes to walk out of there without your clothes on! If you do that, I won't kill anymore of your bodyguards. If you're still not here in ten minutes, then I'm sorry, but the flames will consume you. I'll remember to visit you at your grave next year!" Sora laughed strangely after that.Everyone who heard his laughter could only feel a chill in their bones as they felt disgusted. Mandy's expression became even darker. She did not refuse him immediately, though. While she knew he was playing a game of cat and mouse, those ten minutes might just be enough to save them.-At the same time. Outside of the manor. Sora and his group of confidantes had already arrived at the entrance of the manor. He narrowed his eyes and looked at the terrace. After he waved his hands, his confidante spread out and sealed the remaining entrances.Next to Sora was a swordsman with a mustache. His eyes were full of spirit. It was obvious that he was an elite, the kind who could crush al
"Watch out!" It was at this time when Seven suddenly pulled Mandy over to the side, as his expression darkened. At the same time, one of the pieces of ballistic glass shook and fell on the floor. Then, bolts that seemed like rain stormed into the terrace, falling right where Mandy was standing.If it was not because of Seven's quick actions, Mandy might have already become a human pincushion. She was immediately covered in cold sweat. While she had personally grown and become a successful businesswoman, she had never been in many of these kinds of life and death situations.Whoosh!It was as if the people outside had noticed an opening, they continuously fired the Repeating Crossbow. As they did that, one of the bodyguards who could not dodge in time collapsed on the ground as he held his thigh. A bolt pierced through his thigh, and he immediately lost his ability to fight.Mandy quickly said, "Quick! Drag him over! It's too dangerous over there!"The two bodyguards trembled, and
"Ms. Mandy, you should run now! Run from the back! I can still hold them up for about 15 minutes!" Seven said in a bitter voice as he peeked outside from the door's gap from inside the manor. "If you don't, we won't be able to escape once they rush in. We're almost out of ammo. If we don't fight our way out, we'll all end up dead!"Mandy hesitated a little when she saw how Seven was becoming somewhat concerned and said, "Sure. We'll leave from the back door. But they're here for me. I can't escape. All of you should go and I'll cover you!"Mandy's expression was resolute. Seven was slightly stunned before saying, "Don't joke about something like that, Ms. Mandy. While I'm not one of your followers, but as a bodyguard of the Jeans of Mor'du, there's no way I can escape before you have safely retreated. If I do that, not only will I be unable to face the family, but I also won't be able to face myself and stay in this world!"All the bodyguards exchanged looks and said, "That's right,
The young man in the white suit was not that old. He was at least in his mid-twenties. However, his cheeks were somewhat red. It was obvious that years of excessive drinking and womanizing have left him too depleted for anything to be able to help him. But even then, he still looked in front with greed and obsession, as if wanting to push the woman in the manor to the ground and tear her apart.It was obvious that this man was the scion of the Origin Sword Style, Sora Yamamoto.Sora did not think much about the death of the Origin Sword Style elites. He did not even feel much about their death, as if their death had nothing to do with him."Sir, it's not that the woman is strong. It's the simple fact that no one expected her to have the Royal Flush with her… And she has plenty of it too. From the results of us testing her, the woman isn't saving the Royal Flush for something else when she had her bodyguards use them. I suspect that she had an unlimited supply of it.""You idiot!" S
"Too weak," Harvey sighed. In the next instant, he lifted his right foot and planted it on a broken piece of rock. Instantly, the rock shot out and headed straight to Sverker's throat. It was obvious that Harvey did not wish to leave the Origin Sword Style's number one elite alive."You fool…!" Sverker's entire soul was shuddering as he could feel Death coming for him. He let out a roar and all the energy within his body started to flow, wanting to use that to stop Harvey's attack. However, his thoughts were faster than he could act.The moment he wanted to fight back, he could feel the taste of blood in his mouth. The small rock had already pierced through his throat. In that instant, Sverker's thoughts instantly stopped as he lost the strength to struggle. Then, he collapsed on the ground just like that.There was anger, despair, and even doubt in his eyes.He could not believe that as an elite of the Origin Sword Style, as one of the few most powerful men in Sky Plane, how he en
When the palm strike was going to reach Sverker, Harvey changed his palm strike into a finger strike. He flicked his finger at the edge of the blade.Clank!"Gah!"Sverker seemed shocked as his body shook. There was even blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. He was in a terrible state as he took a few steps back."Mr. Sverker!" All the women cried out at the same time, with shocked expressions. They could not believe that not only did Harvey manage to easily block the legendary Three Slashes, but most importantly he was able to force Sverker some distance back with just the flick of his finger!He was beyond terrifying!"Damn you, kid! Do you think this is my full power?" Sverker's temper was at boiling point after the continuous failures as he gritted his teeth. "I will send you to Hell with all three slashes fused into one!""I better be the one sending you to Hell. I'm already bored with your sword technique," replied Harvey casually. Before Sverker could even attack,
"Your life is worth so little and you want to drag us along to hell? Who do you think you are? All of you are just the same! Selfish to the core!" the woman yelled at Harvey. It was clear that no matter what Harvey did, she wouldn't like it.Harvey glanced at her and said, "We can forget a moment about how your Mr. Sverker is the one who wanted to die alongside me out of shame and anger, let's talk about you. Who else can you blame but yourself by wasting time here instead of running? Not to mention, he can't do anything to me even if he can slash time and the universe."You have overestimated Sverker. He's nothing but trash. I simply wanted to see how powerful the Sword Style Origin's technique is." Harvey then gave Sverker a look. "But at this level, I can easily dispel it with just one strike.""You…" Sverker was so angry that he shuddered. He wasn't going to waste any more time. He gritted his teeth and once again slashed at where Harvey was standing."Timely Slash!"A
"Is that right?" Harvey asked the woman.He looked at Sverker's dark expression."Oh, he's being that nice? Why not give me a few more concessions? Why don't you go easy on me and miss all three slashes?""Damn you! Damn you all!" Sverker's expression turned dark by Harvey's snickering. He pounced forward again. In just an instant, he already appeared before Harvey. His body suddenly swayed and separated into eight afterimages; all of them instantly slashed from all eight directions."Earthly Slash!"Whoosh!As Sverker made that attack, a screeching sound filled the entire marsh. Sverker attacked Harvey like a flash of lightning. The moment the blade almost reached Harvey, a dreadful aura expanded from it, as if a black light was covering the surface of the blade.The attack seemed to have come from the depths of Hell itself, carrying the wrath of countless ghosts.Harvey's expression was cold as his fist turned into a palm strike, and he attacked straight ahead. His attack w
"Idiot!" Sverker smiled coldly as his figure flashed as he pounced forth like a bolt of lightning. The sword in his hand was immediately pulled out from its sheath, like a shooting star across the sky.Compared to the attack just now, this attack was simply and much more direct. There wasn't even much strength behind it. However, those in the know would know that an attack like this was the most powerful.Sverker believed he could easily kill Harvey on the spot."So what if you defeated all the six schools? So what if you defeated all the prodigies from Country I? So what if you defeated Mark?" Sverker smiled coldly as he attacked. "All the so-called True Warriors were joking to me… Because I am the one who kills True Warriors!" Sverker smiled coldly as he unleashed his first strike."Heavenly Slash!" A scarlet light suddenly flashed through Sverker's blade. Harvey raised his head; the attack that was going to split the sky had arrived. Before the blade even reached h
