The men of the Northsea Tigers gave wretched smiles.“I don’t care who you are, but you have no right to meddle in the John family’s affairs!”Ansel calmly took a step forward before swinging his sword.The swing wasn’t fast, but a glare resembling moonlight could be seen.The expression of the man who spoke changed immediately.He could feel that he was being targeted by Ansel’s attack.The slash seemed very slow in his eyes, almost to the point where he felt he could just block it.But somehow, he felt that he was slower than the slash…What did this mean?The attack was already way faster than any human could comprehend!Simply put, there was no way he could defend himself against it!Even so, he didn’t just sit there and take it.He gritted his teeth and quickly waved his hand, shooting his hidden arrows.Everyone could finally see Ansel’s hit landing.They thought that the entire place would be shattered into pieces, but the man only fell to the ground, paralyzed. Hi
“State my name?”“You say that as if you can exact your revenge if I tell you who I am.”“If it wasn’t for my identity, I could’ve killed you a hundred times over by now.”Ansel shot her a frosty look. The remaining people who left standing were frantically twitching their eyes.They immediately took off the safeties of their firearms, but their weapons felt so unusually cold and heavy at that very moment.Harvey looked at what was happening, curious. When he had chosen to retire a long time ago, Ansel did the same. Ansel wasn’t a God of War yet back then.Even so, Ansel had been training nonstop ever since. He would be able to break through and become a new God of War if the opportunity were to show itself!Harvey was pleasantly surprised by Ansel’s skill.There was no need for him to fight as much, after all.“I was wondering who it was! You’re Director Torres!”Butler John finally recognized Ansel as everyone was frozen in place.“The well-renowned Director Torres posse
An hour later. In the side hall of the John family’s manor, a handsome-looking man in a suit kicked Butler John ruthlessly to the ground.“Did Ansel really say that?”“Who gave him the courage?!”“Does he think he can do whatever he wants here just because he can fight?”“Did he forget that my uncle crippled his father with just a single move?!”“Does he think he can control the John family just because he’s the director of the Flutwell Police Station?!”“Ignorant fool!”The handsome man revealed an extremely cold expression.He was none other than the young master of the family, Elliot John!Dahlia was his sister.After hearing about the incident last night, Elliot had already planned to deal with the situation for his sister and reclaim the family’s dignity in the process. He didn’t care who was in the wrong at all.And so, he ordered the Northsea Tigers to take action. With Butler John, who had always done his job flawlessly accompanying them, Elliot thought it would be e
An elderly man in his fifties walked forward with crossed arms.The man was the head of the John family, Gavin John.He was Elliot’s father, and also the brother of the Golden Palace’s top talent.“Ansel means nothing.”“Even if he’s a God of War, he’s still no match for the Golden Palace.”“However, the Head Coach is not to be trifled with!”“We won’t talk about the Euro-American battle, but the one after—the first world war in the middle east.”“Because of the Head Coach, the Gods of War from other countries didn’t dare to step inside the borders of Country H. This alone should be enough to prove just how scary that man is.”“Before making sure of the Torres family’s relationship with that man…”“It won’t be wise to go against them right now.”“Let Ansel protect Harvey as he pleases.”“Why go against a man with such great support for someone you don’t even know?”Gavin looked bitterly at Elliot.“Next time, use your head instead of your emotions. Stop saying these stupid
Elliot John was enraged when he thought about an outsider completely disrespecting the John family.After all, he was on par with the three young masters from the Bauer family.He would rather die than be disrespected like this!That was why he was filled with rage after hearing about the incident.Gavin Bauer chuckled before patting Elliot’s shoulder.“Calm down.“Since Ansel Torres said he wanted to protect Harvey York, we’ll have to pay him some respect along with the people supporting him.“We won’t lay a finger on Harvey.“But that doesn’t mean other people won’t do it!“Harvey turned Freddy Garcia into a vegetable. He was the Celestial Temple’s top talent!“Tell me, if he was actually dead instead…“Will the Indians, who had constantly been suffering against Harvey, be able just to sit still?”Gavin showed a playful look as he explained the situation to Elliot.True upperclassmen should not just chase for what’s right ahead of them.They need to see it from a broade
Nine o’clock at night, at Flutwell People’s Hospital.Harvey York brought some fruits that he had picked before visiting Mandy Zimmer.After all, it was his own wife that had gotten injured. It was only natural for him to be this diligent.Lilian Yates could not stand Harvey, but he understood just how she would behave. Whenever he visited Mandy, he would always bring a huge check just to seal Lilian’s mouth shut. Lilian was a merciless woman, but it was good that she could let anything slide in the name of money. Harvey was able to keep his sanity during his visits because of this.After having a small chat with Mandy, Harvey left the fruits and walked away since he did not want to disturb Mandy’s rest.Because of the epidemic, Harvey carefully put on a face mask and reminded Mandy and Lilian not to leave the sick room so they would not get infected.When Harvey was going downstairs, the dedicated elevator opened.A doctor with a white coat and a face mask came out with a car
The doctor cracked a smile when the Indians started questioning him.“Don’t panic, everyone. I have my identification right here.“Please have a look.”The doctor brought out a laptop and handed it over to the Indians.The Indians let out sighs of relief after seeing the doctor’s actions. They were fully convinced that the doctor was legitimate.But the moment the Indians let their guard down, the doctor waved his hands, dropping every single can and bottle from the cart.A pungent smell slowly wafted after a small explosion was heard.The few Indians in front had no time to react to the situation. As soon as they inhaled the gas, they immediately fell to the ground while white foam came out of their mouths.The rest of the Indians changed their expressions before pulling their firearms out.“Don’t move!”“Who the hell are you?!”The doctor kept a straight face while hearing the threat. He waved his hands before scalpels flew right out from his sleeves.“Aaagh!”Screams of
But as soon as the doctor sat in the driver’s seat, his body froze.A scalpel was placed on his throat all of a sudden.“Good evening…”Harvey York poked his head out before showing a faint smile.When the doctor saw Harvey’s face, he could not react to the situation. He did not expect that he would meet the actual person.He quickly tried to reach inside his armrest for his firearm, but his body froze again after Harvey put some force into the scalpel.“That’s no good…Harvey smiled.“If you’re going to imitate me, at least try a little harder. I wouldn’t pull out a firearm that hastily.”The doctor showed a cold gaze in his eyes.“I didn’t want to kill you…“But now that you’re here…“I have no choice but to send you off.”“Send me off?” asked Harvey with a smile.“I’m the one with the upper hand here.“I don’t care about you killing Freddy…“But it’d be bad if you’re making me take the blame.”Harvey saw the entire operation but did not try to stop it. After all, he
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
