“Let me tell you something, Fabian. Do me justice if you have the balls! If you don’t, then stop yapping and get out of here!”“That b*stard broke my arm a few days ago!”“He went further by slapping me in the face just now! I won’t let him go for this, no matter what!”“You may be the King of Gambling, but you’re still a servant for the Yorks of Hong Kong!”“Don’t you forget! The top families of Hong Kong mean absolutely nothing to us!”“We can make you the King of Beggars in a single day if we want to!”“Now get the f*ck out of here!”Jax and the rest had awful expressions when they heard Elijah’s rude insults toward Fabian and his family.They were fully prepared to take action and retaliate.However, Fabian smiled at them and calmly waved them off.He narrowed his eyes at Elijah. His smile was now strained. “Indeed, the Yorks of Hong Kong are the masters of Hong Kong and Las Vegasd. Us top rated families rely on them to survive.”“Of course the Hamiltons aren’t worthy
Fabian was calm and composed as he revealed the truth.Elijah was clearly trying to frame Harvey. There was solid proof for that, too.Under these circumstances, no matter how biased and unreasonable Grandma York was, it was impossible for her to not know how to differentiate right from wrong.If that was the case, then the birthday banquet would’ve been a big joke.The people who were watching the show came to their senses. After getting a closer look, they realized what Elijah was actually doing.No wonder Harvey had been calm the entire time. He had figured out a way to deal with the situation.“Fine! Thanks for your kind words, Fabian! If the Yorks of Hong Kong won’t pay you back for this, the Council of Myth surely will!”Elijah gnashed his teeth in anger, resentment clouding his eyes.He touched his own face before pointing furiously at Harvey.“For Fabian’s sake, I’ll let you off the hook today, you b*stard!”He then turned around and went back inside his car.“We’re
Harvey opened the gift box instantly. There was supposed to be a framed calligraphy painting inside.Much to his shock, there was an old sword hiding behind the painting.Harvey froze when he laid eyes on the sword.“The Head Coach’s sword?”“Wasn’t this stolen?”“Why did it show up here?”When the Three Seasons Hotel was holding an auction, Murphy and the others used a lot of money to win this specific item.After that, it’s said that the sword got stolen after they left. Why did it show up here?Fabian’s face darkened in an instant.“We’ve been tricked, Sir York!”“Elijah didn’t put up the show just to get people to pity him! He was trying to steer our attention away so he could frame us for this!”“And since this is the Head Coach’s sword, it’s an extremely symbolic relic!”“After it was stolen, there were no leads regarding its whereabouts!”“If you didn’t realize this in time and the gift appears in Grandma York’s hands…”“There won’t be anything you can do to clear
Queenie watched his actions with great shock. Harvey casually rolled down the car window and waved his hand, letting the dust fly out.For others, the sword had significant meaning. It was a priceless artifact that could be treated as a family heirloom.But for Harvey, the sword meant nothing to him.He cast the sword aside after it broke in the middle of war, but someone managed to pick it back up and use it to frame him.What a joke.After seeing Harvey’s calm look, Queenie let out a sigh of relief. She knew full well that they had already won since the sword was destroyed.The two then looked calmly outside the window.Fabian stood in front of Murphy and the others.“What’s the meaning of this, Murphy?”“I told you! This is my car.”“You’re telling me you’re going to search my car? This is just disrespectful!”“When did you people have the right to go against me?!”Murphy grinned deviously as he watched Fabian’s frosty expression.“We’re both from here, Fabian. We can’t
Right when Fabian was about to give himself up…Harvey rolled down the car window and said, “We’re all good citizens here. We’ve been awarded for that too.”“Since the police are here to search us, we should just let them. We have a clear conscience, anyway.”“As good citizens, it’s only natural for us to cooperate with the police.”Fabian froze when he saw Harvey’s face from the window. He didn’t think that Harvey would be willing to be searched.But he trusted Harvey; he knew Harvey wouldn’t just do something like this for no reason. Thus, he nodded lightly and didn’t say another word.“But if you’re going to search us, I’ll have to warn you first.”“What statement will you give us if the so-called Head Coach’s sword isn’t here?”Harvey walked out of the car while crossing his arms with a calm expression.“After all, I’m the important guest of the Yorks of Hong Kong. I represent Lord York himself here.”“If you’re searching my car, that means that you’re searching Lord York
The Rolls Royce was torn apart in a matter of minutes.The excited looks on the inspectors’ faces turned into utter horror.The leading inspector then came back soon after.“Young Master Evans, we… We didn’t find anything!”Murphy’s face changed before he yelled, “Impossible!”He rushed forward and grabbed Harvey’s calligraphy painting.After scrounging around for a while, Murphy screamed at Harvey with all his might, “Where’s the sword?!”“Where is it?!”“We can’t lose it like this!”The Head Coach’s sword was just too important. There were still other uses to it after Murphy was done framing Harvey with it.If the sword was lost, Murphy wouldn’t be able to pay it off even with his life.“I told you. I know nothing about the sword, nor am I interested in it.”“Do you really think I’m hiding it with the calligraphy painting? What kind of joke are you trying to make here? Huh?”Harvey stared at Murphy, poker-faced.“I bought this at the antique store this morning. Do you t
“Stop right there, you b*stard!”Right as Harvey was about to walk on the red carpet inside, Lexie appeared in glamorous clothes.She brought a group of people with her to block Harvey’s path.“Let’s not talk about old grudges, Harvey.”“However, today’s Grandma York’s birthday.”“As a guest, forget being careful, you’re even causing so much trouble in our territory!”“People who know clearly understand you’re here for the banquet…”“But the people who don’t might think you’re just here to cause a big ruckus!”“I don’t care why and how you attain the right to be here today, nor do I care why you took action against the others.”“But since you don’t have any respect toward the family, we don’t need to show respect to you either!”“You’re blacklisted! Get out of here!”“The Yorks of Hong Kong don’t welcome you!”Lexie shot Harvey a scornful expression. Those from the head house and the second house who stood behind her glared icily at Harvey.These people didn’t care about r
Right just as a fight was about to break out, Queenie stepped forward with a smile on her face.“I’m afraid you won’t be able to stop him, Auntie.”“From now on, he’ll be the son-in-law of the family and become the new young lord.”Everyone froze in an instant. Nobody could come to their senses.“Son-in-law of the family?! The new young lord?!”Lexie’s eyes twitched frantically. The world around her started to warp.She never thought Marcel would even do something like this on the day of Grandma York’s birthday!Marcel even had a long talk with the head house about Vince’s succession the night before!The head house thought Marcel would give in if he was given enough benefits.But then…Vince and Elijah, whose faces were awful after what Harvey did to them before, felt an unspeakable sense of danger after hearing Queenie’s declaration.Julian, Quinton, Matthew, and the others froze. They stared at Harvey, their eyes filled with disbelief.Only Marcel remained expressionless
None of the elites from Earth Hall had a problem with Wenzel's words. They all kneeled on the ground and said, "We understand the gravity of our crimes. We accept our punishment!"Meanwhile, Silvan's eye twitched as he forced a smile. "You're mistaken, Mayor! You've been away and didn't return in the past decade. You probably don't know what's happening in Grand City. Please listen to my explanation. I'm sure you'll be happy with it."Silvan was no fool. He knew very well that tonight, he might be made an example of if he wasn't careful. He had no choice but to choose to surrender so that he wouldn't be killed with one slap.Harvey said nothing but simply looked at what was happening without much interest. The others might be afraid of Wenzel, but he didn't feel anything."Grand City's current situation? Isn't it just someone wanting to hijack my authority while I'm away?" Wenzel said softly, but his words were frightening. "If I return any later, would you have a new mayor already
Rumble…The gigantic helicopter slowly landed on a platform right outside the entrance of the Foster Residence. The door slid open, and dozens of men in white robes walked out. Their faces were cold, as if they were machines or puppets. When they walked out, it was difficult to tell if they were even humans.Among the group, several men and women wearing masks could be seen among the men. While they weren't that eye-catching, they seemed to be surrounded by a formless, subtle aura of awe.Harvey gave them a look, and he could tell these men and women were extremely powerful. They were all elites at the level of True Warriors. All he could say was that Grand City was indeed very well established.A woman wearing Givenchy's exclusive collection and frameless glasses slowly walked out before standing aside, making way for a middle-aged man wearing a traditional garb. The man had a powerful figure and a handsome face. The outfit he was wearing was quite old, with a few patches here and
"Forget being on your knees and begging me, you're even threatening me," Harvey patted Silvan's face with the Absolute Decree. "Do you really think I wouldn't dare to kill you?""If you do, you wouldn't be wasting your breath now!" Silvan said with a cold smile, his expression brutal. "I'm warning you… You had better return the Absolute Decree to me in one piece, then kneel and beg for forgiveness and offer Tina to me. Then, maybe things will end here. Otherwise, you're going to pay for your mistake your entire life! At that time, not only you… Even those who stand with you will have to pay a price you can't even imagine!"Silvan had been given an order to take Tina away no matter what. That was his first aim.Of course, he couldn't simply let the part where he was humiliated be. He would get his revenge one way or another.Harvey smiled. "Really, now. Since you sound so confident, just bring it on. Let's see if your face is harder, or the Absolute Decree is harder…"When Silvan s
"That's for me to know and for you to find out. If you're not going to make a choice soon, I'm going to do that for you." Harvey extended his hand and patted Silvan's face with the Absolute Decree.Silvan's eyes narrowed. Only at this time did he realize why Dan had forced him to make his move even if he had to spend that precious one chance. The way Harvey did things was simply too overbearing and couldn't be prepared for."Put down the Absolute Decree!""What you're doing is forbidden in Grand City!""This is outrageous!"All the Earth Hall elites yelled, furious.Alexei used this chance to get closer to Harvey and whispered, "Big bro, you should pay more respect to the Absolute Decree. If you keep this up, you might anger all Seven Predecessors if you're not careful."Silvan smiled coldly. "You hear that, Harvey? You humiliated Grand City by stealing the Absolute Decree. You're in big trouble now."Harvey smiled. "You don't have to worry whether I'm in trouble or not. You
"No one can say that I won't be the future mayor of Grand City. As long as I have the possibility of becoming the mayor, what you do know is insubordination!" Harvey sneered. "Are you brave enough to touch me?""Really now?" Silvan snapped, his face frosty. "Do you think I haven't prepared anything before coming here?"Silvan took out a badge made of a special material, flashing it in front of Harvey. "The Absolute Decree! While it can only be used once, it will allow anyone to enter any place within Grand City! I think this is the perfect place to use this. Forget about the fact that you're not even the scion of Grand City just yet. Even if you are, you need to obey the Absolute Decree!"He waved his hand and commanded, "Alright! Go and get our target!"Whoosh!Before anyone from Earth Hall could move, Harvey took a step and immediately appeared right in front of Silvan. Before Silvan could react, Harvey slapped his face. Slap!The slap was loud, and it was powerful enough t
A simple sentence seemed to contain an endless amount of murderous intention, putting all the elites from the Earth Hall on their guard. Silvan's face became terrifyingly dark."I know you're powerful, Harvey. You crushed the Origin Fist's Mark and even defeated all the Island Nation's six schools in the past. There's no mistake that you're a true warrior. But think through this clearly. There are so many of us here, can you defeat us? Even if you can, what if the three halls combined forces? What if all 100,000 of Grand City's elites attacked?"I'm advising you here right now because I have some respect for your role as the Representative of Country H Martial Arts Alliance. But if you still refuse to listen and want to force your way, we don't mind doing it until the end. You can try and attack any of us here. Let's see if the thousands of elites from the three halls will attack, and how many of us can you actually kill!" Silvan's handsome face turned brutal.If it was someone
However, Silvan couldn't simply leave like this or surrender. He gritted his teeth and instantly pulled out a gun from his waist. After disengaging the safety, he pointed at Harvey and said coldly, "I'm not here to waste my breath with you, Harvey. Take Tina here. I'll give you one minute. Otherwise, don't blame me for being callous! While you are indeed quite powerful, I trust that you know the people around you aren't that powerful!"36 men in black robes took a step forward. The weapons in their hands were not only aimed at Harvey, but also on Alexei and the rest.Harvey narrowed his eyes and smiled. "I do have the Tina that you're looking for, but I saved her out of the generosity of my heart as she was being pursued. However, something interesting about me is that when I save someone, I'll make sure to go all the way. Since she's now with me, I naturally need to ensure her safety."You can take her away. You can even put her in your prison. However, I need you to provide me w
Harvey played with the umbrella in his hand and said curiously, "You're with Dan?"When Silvan heard that, he said coldly, "Mr. Representative, do I need to repeat myself? I am Silvan of the Earth Hall. Now that I'm here, I am the warrant from Earth Hall as well as Grand City's law. And when I act, all will obey my orders. Even the Seven Families will cooperate with me without delay. Understand?"Harvey smiled. "And if I can't understand?"Silvan simply raised his hands.Clack! Clack!All 36 men in the black robes took out unique firearms and disengaged the safety, aiming in Harvey's direction."These weapons are specialized firearms Country A created against martial arts elites. Their bullets are created from toxins that could deal with True Warriors that Grand City has perfected. The ones with weapons are trained elites who with god-like accuracy and an iron will. If all 36 of them pull the trigger at the same time, even a living legend who has reached the level of uniting Man
Grand City looked quite mysterious under the cover of the night. The skies above were covered in dark clouds, with flashes of lightning visible occasionally—it was dazzling.Just when the butler of the Foster Residence was about to tell the staff to secure the gates for the night, sounds of car engines could be heard approaching from afar. Bright headlights swept over, and the staff instinctively narrowed their eyes. Eighteen Land Rover Defenders headed straight to the residence, surrounded by an unspeakable force. Thanks to the rain, one couldn't clearly see the figures within.However, each of the cars had red car plates, which was quite shocking to those in the know.It was Grand City's Purgatory Hall!The three halls of Grand City were the three institutions created for the city. The Heaven Hall was responsible for defense, the Earth Hall covered law enforcement, while the Purgatory Hall had dominion over execution.It could be said that among the Three Halls, while the Eart
