Ansel was in shock, but Colton remained expressionless; nobody knew exactly how he was feeling.He then walked over before tapping Harvey on the shoulder.Harvey stood still, just as expressionless. “I told you Harvey was impressive, Father. Do you believe me now?”Ansel smiled faintly.“Can Sir York have a look at your injury now?”Before Colton spoke up, a voice echoed from outside.“Uncle Torres! Where are you?”“Let’s go to the hall.”Colton clapped his hands.“Sienna’s here.”“She told me she’d find me a well-known doctor a few days ago.”“She was planning to get me fixed.”“Sir York. Sienna’s from the Wright family,” Ansel whispered in Harvey’s ear.“Her father is my father’s good friend. That’s why both our families have a good relationship.”“I didn’t know she was going to come with a doctor. I’m really sorry about that.”“The Wright family?”Harvey smiled after hearing Ansel’s words.“The head of the top ten families in Country H?”“Is Sienna the legendary
Rudolph’s title wasn’t just for show.It was said that he had studied ancient medical skills from both India and the Island Nations, as well as western and eastern medicine. His skills were considered unparalleled.He was also able to filter out most of the useless information and keep only the essence of said medical skills, further pushing him to more lengths.It’s said that even the royal families of Northern Europe would occasionally hire him to treat them, prolonging their lives in the process.However, Rudolph’s price was extremely high; he would charge at least millions of dollars every time.If he had to operate on anyone, it would cost exponentially more.Despite that, his business was still flourishing.Ansel had already heard of the legendary Deathbuster before. Even though the Torres family was quite well-known throughout Flutwell, they were still not good enough to get someone like Rudolph here.If it weren’t for Sienna, Rudolph probably wouldn’t have shown up here
Seeing Rudolph’s disdainful expression…Harvey calmly said, “I’m no doctor.”“And you’re the legendary Deathbuster.”“If you really are that impressive, why couldn’t you fix your own sickness?”“Every time you feel like doing it, you have no strength to actually go through with it. You feel miserable about it, don’t you?”Rudolph’s prideful look froze in an instant.He looked at Harvey, filled with disbelief.He didn’t think that Harvey knew about his unspeakable secret!His reputation would be tarnished if the word about this were to spread!Rudolph furiously changed his expression.“You investigated me?!”Colton and Ansel looked at Rudolph with a strange gaze upon noticing the change in his expression.They naturally knew what Harvey was talking about.Sienna was a little dumbfounded, but then she realized what the conversation was about. She couldn’t help but swallow her spit, her face bright-red.“Why would I? Do you think you’re some hotshot that I’m interested in?”
Rudolph crossed his arms as his assistants pulled out all sorts of precision instruments.“You’ve never seen all these things, have you?”“Let me tell you something: these are special equipment only found in Switzerland! You’d have to work your entire damn life just to have one of these!”“The doctors in my country use real medical skills to save their patients!”“I’ll show you just how good I am right now!”Harvey glanced curiously at the equipment for a short while.“Elder Torres isn’t even sick, but you’ll probably misdiagnose him as having heart failure.”“I’m no doctor, but I can already tell.”“Don’t tell me that you’re going to use all this equipment just to do exactly what I predicted.”Sienna was confused.“You can tell what’s wrong with Uncle Torres?”“You’re not just spouting nonsense, are you?”Harvey chuckled without giving a reply.Rudolph coldly scoffed; he felt utterly embarrassed after all the humiliation from before.He put up a front, and started prepar
Colton chuckled.“Life and death, poor and rich, it’s all destined to be.”“Since there’s not a good chance that I’ll survive, let’s just drop this.”“It’s hard for Mr. Rudolph to come all this way here. Write him a 1.5 million dollar check.”Naturally, Colton didn’t want to take his last breath on the sick bed.Rudolph flashed him a bitter smile.“Thank you for that, Elder Torres…”“But I’m afraid I cannot accept it.”Sienna wasn’t planning to give up just yet.“You’re the youngest director of the International Medical Federation, Mr. Rudolph! You’re a talented man! You’re the Deathbuster! Do you really have no other way of helping Uncle Torres?”“There’s no other way!”Rudolph took a deep breath.“We either take the chance, or we let him die after three months.”“Not just me, even the chairman of the federation won’t be able to help!”Sienna went silent after hearing Rudolph’s words.Harvey smiled calmly and tapped Rudolph’s shoulder.“You have impressive skills, Rudo
Rudolph believed that his medical skills were unparalleled. He had been treating people from the royal family or the nobility in Northern Europe for many years.Together with his title as a director of the International Medical Federation, it was safe to say that he was quite influential in the medical world.Nobody else could save a patient that he himself couldn’t help!He was already quite unhappy with Harvey exposing his secret…Naturally, he was a lot angrier after Harvey showed utter disrespect for him in the field that he was well-versed in.The assistants and nurses beside Rudolph were glaring disdainfully at Harvey.They thought that Harvey was just too arrogant.‘Just because he figured out Mr. Rudolph’s secret, doesn’t mean he gets to show off like that!’‘He can’t perform that way, but his medical skills are unparalleled!’“Would you like to try, Elder Torres?”Harvey completely ignored Rudolph’s insults, and instead looked calmly at Colton.“As I said, I’m no do
Sienna frowned. There was nothing she could say if Colton wanted Harvey to treat him.Only Ansel was excited, as if his father was about to be cured.“Ready, Elder Torres?”Harvey ignored everyone’s gaze and raised his right index and middle finger, as if it was a knife.“Go ahead.”Colton smiled, but even a calm man like him would feel a little anxious. His muscles had gone a little tight.Swoosh!Harvey took a step forward and swung his left palm right across Colton’s face.Slap!Colton was instantly enraged after taking the slap.“Sir York!”Ansel’s expression changed immediately.“How dare you?!”Sienna’s face turned cold.“What do you think you’re doing?!”Rudolph was getting angry as well!If Harvey could save someone like this, Rudolph’s experiences in medical school would’ve been in vain.Right as everyone was infuriated…Harvey thrust his fingers right toward Colton’s heart.He poked his fingers at that spot around seven times.Before he took a step back, h
Rudolph didn’t believe that anyone in the world could possess such amazing medical skills. After all, Harvey only slapped Colton in the face and poked the latter in the chest a few times.Yet, that alone was somehow able to save Colton from imminent death…This was incredible!It was a miracle!“What happened?!”“Why did you want Elder Torres tied up?”“Why did you slap him in the face?!”“You have to tell me!”Rudolph was basically begging Harvey to tell him what Harvey had done.He refused to die without knowing such important knowledge.Sienna, the assistants, and the nurses froze after seeing the frenzied look on Rudolph’s face.Naturally, it was their first time seeing him act this way. He was always high and mighty, after all.“It’s simple, really.”Harvey intended to explain how it worked for Ansel, so he didn’t plan to hide anything.“Elder Torres was struck on his heart when he fought someone.”“There was no physical pain from that particular attack, but a gust
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
