While Marcel York and Selena Judd were admiring their potential future son-in-law, Harvey York quickly slipped away.He could run for the time being, but there was no escaping from the two.For his own safety, he had to stay in the garden villa for the next couple of days.The next day, early in the morning, the air outside felt refreshing after the rain last night.While taking a short walk, Harvey bumped into Queenie York, who was getting ready for her morning exercise. He then got on her four-wheeled scooter before they arrived at a private golf course not too far behind the garden villa.Queenie was wearing her golf shirt with a short skirt, along with sunglasses and knee socks, making her seem extremely attractive.When she brought Harvey to the golf course, a breath of fresh air blew right past them.Harvey picked up a golf club with a faint smile on his face.“I’m already in the front lines at this point, yet you’re still bringing me here for golf? Aren’t you afraid of g
Clap clap clap!“As expected from an expert like you, Sir York.“No wonder you’d dare defy Grandma York herself.“I just don’t know if you’re actually a formidable young man or just plain stupid.”A derisive tone could be heard.A few people were seen walking out of the forest.Those people were all wearing green long sleeve shirts while showing expressions as cold as ice.A skinny old man was standing in the very middle.The man had a pallid and clean-shaven face. He was playing with his fidget walnuts as he was squinting at Harvey, full of disdain.An arrogant and dominant aura could be clearly felt on him!“Manager York?!”Queenie’s expression changed slightly after seeing the man.“Who?” asked Harvey. He did not expect someone in Hong Kong would still dare act this domineering before him.That was why this person piqued his interest.A frown could be seen on Queenie’s beautiful face.“This is the servant of the previous lord of the family. He’s been serving under him
“You b*stard!“How dare you speak to Manager York like that?!”A man in a green shirt walked forward with a cold smirk on his face.“I’ll smack your mouth wide open!“I’m not worthy, you say?”Manager York took a step forward and calmly waved his hand, signaling his men to step back.Then, he crossed his arms as he glared at Harvey York.“I’m the manager of the Yorks of Hong Kong,” said Manager York slowly.“I’m the previous lord and Grandma York’s most trusted subordinate!”Harvey let out a chuckle. “I didn’t expect a mere servant could be this arrogant…” said Harvey, smiling warmly.“Though, I do want to ask!“What did I do for you to demand me to kneel?”Queenie York wanted to say something after seeing Harvey go against Manager York like that, but she immediately gave up after seeing his attitude…She understood her brother very well.Harvey was miffed.“What did you do?“Don’t you understand?”Manager York furiously stomped on the ground!Cracks were forming al
Harvey York calmly looked at Manager York and the others before he said, “I might have the same surname, but that doesn’t mean I’m a part of you people.“Your higher-ups mean nothing to me.“As for Grandma York…“Her words are absolute to you…“But, they don’t mean sh*t to me.“If you want to play pretend, just do it within the family.“Stop embarrassing yourself in public!”“Ignorant kid!” a man in a green shirt yelled while pointing at Harvey.“How dare you insult Grandma York?!“You’re finished!“God can’t save you now!“I’ll break your f*cking limbs!“I’ll make you understand what happens when you defy Grandma York!“You…”Slap!Before the man could even finish his words, Harvey already took a step forward and sent him flying off with a slap.Everyone went dead silent after seeing such a horrifying sight.The stewards under Manager York’s command had immense statuses in both Hong Kong and Las Vegas…They represented the authority of the Yorks of Hong Kong and the
Harvey York showed a calm look on his face while he spoke in a playful tone.Then, he brought out some tissues and started wiping his hands arrogantly.Manager York’s eyes were frantically twitching at this very moment.When he finally came to his senses, he furiously stomped his feet to the ground and yelled, “How dare you?!“Harvey York!“You arrogant b*stard!“You have the guts to hit the stewards of the family?!“These are Grandma York’s men here!“Do you even care about the Yorks of Hong Kong?!“Does Grandma York even matter to you?!”Harvey merely let out a chuckle.“Are you blind?“Didn’t you see them come at me first?“Disrespecting superiors is a sin for the Yorks of Hong Kong!“As the lord’s eminent guest, my status is absolute!“You can’t even figure that out as the manager of the family, and yet you’re here rambling to me about rules?”His gaze was as cold as ice then.“Or are you saying that you made up all those rules?“When it’s good for you, you’ll tal
“If it weren’t for Dean Cobb himself, what could you even do against Miyata Shinosuke?!“If it weren’t for the Sentries of York, what could you even do against Akio Yashiro?!“You thought you were strong, but you only got lucky!“You don’t seem to know the true extent of my power either!“And yet you dare challenge me?!“Didn’t you know that I was trained by Andy York himself?!“You think I’m just an old man showing off with these people here?“You’re wrong!“Dead wrong!”Manager York took a step forward before releasing his aura.A gust of wind blew all over the place, picking up countless fallen leaves in the process. Serious looks could be seen on everyone’s faces when they saw the sight.They could clearly feel just how strong Manager York was.“I’m giving you one last chance, Harvey York!“Kneel!“Accept your punishment!“Grovel in front of Grandma York and plead guilty!“When you’re done, get your *ss out of Hong Kong and never come back!“If you don’t, I’ll brea
Harvey York completely ignored the man while curiously looking at the mountain path.Right as Manager York passed out, a Toyota Century, that had been parked there for some time, had its rear door opened all of a sudden.A petite skinny old man could be seen coming out of the car.His hair was casually flowing behind him when he wore a discolored robe.He was emotionless as he steadily trod forward.“Master Jacknife!”The men in green shirts instantly slammed their knees on the ground after seeing the old man.He was Grandma York’s best expert, after all.‘Jacknife!’Harvey took a good look at the man while his interest piqued.Legends said that Jacknife was a God of War himself. Judging from the man’s attitude, he did seem quite terrifying already.Jacknife’s gaze locked onto Harvey when he slowly walked closer without a change in expression. It was as if he was just taking a stroll outside.Queenie York, who was standing behind Harvey, instinctively stepped in front while
“Excuse me.”Harvey York smiled before we casually picked up a sword on the ground.“Jacknife, right?“My knees are a little stiff. I can’t kneel like this.“And I don’t think I’m an ant either.“So, why don’t I send you off instead?”“Send me off?”A playful look was showing on Jacknife’s face.“I have to admit. This is my first time seeing someone this arrogant in front of me after so many years.“Anyway, it’s only natural. After all, you don’t even care about Grandma York in the first place.Jacknife then slowly pulled out the sword on his waist.“Three minutes.“Judging from your strength, three minutes should be enough for me to deal with you.“When I’m done with you…“I’ll have to ask for Grandma York’s forgiveness.“After all, you lived for another twelve hours.“This is my fault!”“Three minutes? That’s too long.Harvey chuckled.“Make it one.“I’ll have my morning tea after that.”“You ignorant fool!”Jacknife’s expression was as cold as ice after hearing
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
