At this very moment, Bowen was seething with anger.His impatience and love for his daughter had him completely infuriated.Right as Harvey was about to step out, Bowen let out a hollow laugh. “Every single one of you is a top talent of the Longmen Summit!”“Yet, none of you can do anything about this?!”“You’re all trash in my eyes!”“You won’t even know how you’d die if I send you all to the underworld!”“If you can’t even deal with such a simple problem, then why don’t you just die?!”The examinees’ expressions worsened after hearing Bowen’s words.They all came from extraordinary families, and they wanted to retaliate after Bowen called them trash…But after reminding themselves of Bowen’s identity, they had no choice but to sit back down and keep silent.On the one hand, they were intimidated by Bowen’s power and status…On the other hand, they had no power to save Larisa.Fisher wanted to say something, but he couldn’t utter a single word after seeing Bowen’s infuri
“Leave! You have no right to do anything to Larisa!”Harvey stared calmly at Bowen. Then, he nodded. “Fine. I won’t save her if you don’t let me.”“That said, I still need to take the test. Give me something else to do.”Bowen scoffed coldly.“You want another test?”“There’s no need for that!”“Every single one of you is useless, anyway! There’s no chance any of you will pass!”“From now on, every examinee of this batch will be disqualified!”“Leave! Every single one of you!”“Leave, and never come back!”Harvey’s gaze turned as cold as ice after hearing Bowen being this unreasonable.Gossip could be heard all over the place.Nobody could hear the conversation between Harvey and Bowen, but they heard Bowen loud and clear when he said that he was going to disqualify every single examinee in the hall.Fisher couldn’t hold his feelings back any longer. He stepped out.“It’s inappropriate for you to just disqualify Harvey like that, Branch Leader Lee.”“Besides, he seems
“Since Branch Leader Lee’s already made his decision, you should just leave!”“You’re already disqualified, anyway! Stop being so persistent!”“You’ll only waste everyone’s time!”The examiners started to up after hearing Bowen’s words.They looked as if they were trying to teach a young man a lesson.“Fine. If that’s the case…”“I’ll quit on my own volition!”Harvey’s gaze turned as cold as ice as soon as he saw the arrogance on Bowen and everyone else’s faces.“That said, Bowen…”“Let me tell you something.”“Her body is filled with evil energy because she entered a haunted house.”“And because she was shot by a prop firearm, she is now in deep shock, causing the evil energy to flow straight into her soul.”“Ordinary means won’t be able to save her.”“There are only three people in Country H who can save her.”“And in Flutwell, only I can do that.”“If not saved, she’ll have to live the rest of her life this way.”Harvey wiped his fingers with some tissues. Then, he t
Ansel was an experienced man—he knew there was no way to cure his subordinate through normal means.Thus, he went to Longmen’s Flutwell branch for help, hoping that they would save his subordinate.Bowen was experienced as well, but he couldn’t do anything about the man’s state since he wasn’t well-versed in the Art of Killing.Ansel had been asking so-called experts of Flutwell the entire night, but to no avail.Bowen thought that Ansel had shown up to ask for his help. Who knew that Ansel immediately walked past him and the crowd, and made a beeline straight to Harvey?Before anyone could even react to the situation, Ansel apologized to Harvey. “I didn’t mean to disturb you today, Sir York.”“But my subordinate’s in a terrible state!”“I’ve thought about it for a long time. At this point, in all of Flutwell, only you can help him!”“That’s why I came here!”“While we were trying to go after a group of grave robbers, my subordinate became like this after getting struck by
Harvey reached out and checked the man’s pulse. Then, he poked the man’s chest.“How dare you, you b*stard?!”Bowen was boiling with anger upon seeing this. “Don’t you know that the acupoints of the heart are off limits?!”“How dare you?!”“You’ll hurt him!”Bowen reached out, trying to grab Harvey’s hand.Naturally, he didn’t want Harvey to save the man.He wanted to cause trouble.Slap!Ansel was infuriated; he instantly slapped Bowen to the ground without hesitation.“B*stard!”“Don’t get in Sir York’s way! He’s trying to save my subordinate!”“Aaargh!”The crowd gasped upon seeing Bowen slapped aside.After all, he was the branch leader of Flutwell’s Longmen branch. He clearly had a lot of support.Even though Ansel was the director of the Flutwell Police Station, his reputation within the government was well-maintained—there was never any bad news about him.The sight of him beating someone down was something no one had ever imagined. The slap was a lot more d
Ansel glared coldly at Bowen; he couldn’t be bothered to talk to someone like Bowen.He then looked back at Harvey.“Can my subordinate still be saved?”Naturally, Ansel trusted Harvey the most.But because of their huge gap in status, he wouldn’t dare ask for Harvey’s help unless he had no other choice.Bowen’s eyes twitched frantically after seeing Ansel’s respectful attitude toward Harvey, but he had no other choice after reminding himself of the consequences of Harvey saving the man.“I know you still don’t believe me, Director Torres!” he exclaimed through gritted teeth.“But I know you’re worried for your subordinate!”“I wish for his speedy recovery as well!”“But you shouldn’t be reckless!”“I’m the branch leader of Flutwell’s Longmen branch. Since I’m able to stay in this position, it means I have nothing to fear! I wouldn’t cause trouble for no reason whatsoever!”“It’s not that I don’t want your subordinate to recover. I just don’t want some nobody accidentally ki
“You’re one of Longmen’s branch leaders, Bowen.”“How can you be so shameless?”“You think everyone will call you righteous just because you said all that?”“Do you really think people can’t see through your pettiness?”Vivian exposed Bowen’s plans without any hesitation.“If you want to play dirty tricks, don’t do it here!”“You have no right to fool the police!”“You’ll pay a heavy price if you do!”Vivian turned to Harvey with a hopeful look.“Ignore him, Sir York. Just focus on saving our colleague.”“Director Torres will definitely find a way to get you into the Longmen Summit.”Bowen was the person who had the right to qualify anyone he wanted. If he decided not to qualify anyone at all, it would be quite troublesome for Harvey, who was trying to participate in the Longmen Summit.However, Vivian believed that there was still justice in this world—she believed there would always be a solution to this conundrum.“No need to bother with such a small matter.”“Since Br
If Bowen lost the bet, he would lose all of his credibility and wealth. Yet at the very least, he would regain his daughter…But if he won, then not only would he have the opportunity to cripple the ignorant b*stard in front of him, but his good name would also spread far and wide!More importantly, he would get a hundred and fifty million dollars! He would be able to double his wealth in an instant!What a great deal!Bowen was starting to pray for his daughter to remain in this sorry state for the rest of her life. That way, she wouldn’t be able to stop him from making more money!“You’re not a doctor, Harvey! You’re just a martial artist!” Fisher exclaimed instinctively.“These two might not be able to be cured even through the means of the underworld!”“One is already hard enough, but two…”Fisher didn’t continue his words. Naturally, he knew just how difficult it was to save both people.He didn’t want a top talent like Harvey to be crippled because of such a trivial matt
Gah!Souichiro, who was in mid-air, coughed out a mouthful of blood. He was thrown away like a ragdoll and slammed right into a wall, the shape of his figure etched on it. Blood trickled out of his eyes, nose, and mouth; a flurry of expressions crossed his face.Shock, confusion, and disbelief.Souichiro couldn't believe that he was defeated so cleanly. Regret, pain, and helplessness filled him. He never expected that despite going all out with Demonbane, the ancestral armor, and the exoskeletal frame, he would still lose to Harvey in one hit.At this time, Souichiro suddenly realized something. His father most probably didn't die in an ambush—the man really did lose to Harvey… "Harvey, you…"Souichiro still wanted to say something."So noisy!" Harvey slapped Souichiro with an indifferent expression, sending the man flying through the air. There was a loud sound, and Souichiro's head spun to the side. Black blood trickled out of his mouth, and he was at death's door…He defeat
"Harvey, I'm different from my father! He's a real knight, and he likes to duel others fair and square. He always gives others the benefit of the doubt. That's why he was killed after being ambushed by you!" Souichiro started to whitewash his father, although one might wonder what was the point of doing that now."But I'm different. As the new Battle Demon of Shindan Way, I will use everything I can to win. If you think you can win against me just because you defeated my father using an ambush, then all I can say is that you're too naïve!"Now, kneel and guard my father's tomb for a decade! Tell everyone that Country H's martial arts aren't as good as the Island Nation's martial arts and that Country H isn't as good as the Island Nation! Then, I can consider not killing you."Harvey signaled Yvonne to go to the corner and then looked at the sky. "The sky's getting dark. No wonder some people started dreaming.""You… You talk too much!" Seeing that Harvey refused to surrender, Sou
All the Shindan Way's elites didn't feel ashamed about it at all. To them, everything would be fine as long as Souichiro had enough power whether it was gained through an external means or otherwise.In the Island Nation's martial arts community, power was everything. No one cared how you got that power. The end justified the means.At this time, they were all expecting that Souichiro could avenge Akio.When Leighton heard what the Shindan Way's higher-ups had to say, his eyes widened in realization. "I see! It's similar to one of our sayings, where a cat is a good cat regardless of its colors as long as it can catch rats! In this world, power is everything!"The rest of the Islanders agreed with that expression. Since Souichiro wanted to have his revenge, it wouldn't be strange if he was willing to use everything he had at his disposal. As long as he could win, as long as he could kill Harvey… As long as he could succeed, it didn't matter what methods he used.Many Islanders st
"If that's the case, step aside and kneel! You have no right to stand here!" Harvey pointed at the drainage at the side, disdainful. All the Islanders present felt embarrassed after hearing that. They were furious, wishing they could kill him right there and then.Leighton and the other traitors could only watch with widened eyes. They still couldn't understand where Harvey got the courage to threaten the people of an entire country on his own. Did he know no fear?Yvonne looked at Harvey with admiration in her eyes.This was Harvey York—someone who could stand above the rest even when he was on his own. The Islanders were nothing before him."Fool! You're a huge fool!"Before Shingen could react, the Battle Demon of the Shindan Way, Souichiro Yashiro, stepped forward and walked to the edge of the stage. There was a longsword and shortsword on his belt. He glared at Harvey and said darkly, "I know you, Harvey. Back in Mordu, you ambushed my father and destroyed the Shindan Way
"If it isn't because I still have a wedding and didn't want my hands to be soaked in blood, I can kill you instantly with my thumb," Shingen said to Harvey. To see what else Harvey could do, Shingen didn't want to attack Harvey directly right now and was hoping someone else would. However, his words were full of contempt."You now have one last chance. Tell that woman next to you to serve me willingly, and you can watch the wedding on the side while kneeling. Do that, and I'll let you go. Otherwise, just a signal from me and you'll die by a million cuts!"All the Islanders weren't sure how to react when they heard what Shingen had to say.Harvey remained calm. When the elites from the Six Martial Arts Schools and Five Royal Families saw that he didn't react, all of them took a step forward. They were no match for Harvey alone, but they didn't mind it if they could all attack together.They acted as if they would kill Harvey immediately if he refused to submit."Oh? Are you going
Aya Fujiwara was from the branch family of the Island Nation's royal family. She couldn't be compared to anyone, whether it was in terms of her potential or the resources she had access to.While her name wasn't well-known when she came to celebrate Shingen's wedding, her martial arts inheritance came directly from the Island Nation's royal family, and she was quite powerful. When even someone like her felt that Harvey was extremely powerful, there was a problem.As for Shouta, who had failed earlier, he could feel his face start to pulse in pain again. He felt lucky that Harvey didn't throw the coffin at him. Otherwise, he would end up worse than Nobita.All the other elites from the other Island Nation schools of martial arts could only watch in disbelief.They knew Harvey was very powerful and could fight with a sword saint for hundreds of rounds. However, they thought Harvey had only won after using a sneak attack. Nobita was one of the three primary disciples of the Shinto
"You…little…bastard…" Leighton finally felt terrified. Someone like him knew little shame—so what if he was called a few names? He could still continue to act like a public figure and judge on the internet, and earn money from all the tragedies.However, if Harvey recorded everything he said just now and put it on the internet, he would become a publicly hated traitor. And then, he would lose all value. Even the Islanders wouldn't want to use him anymore.The moment that thought entered his mind, Leighton pointed at Harvey and roared, "Take… Take him down, Mr. Shingen! You can't let him leave here alive!""Shingen," Harvey said, not wanting to give Leighton any more attention. "I didn't expect a dog you keep can order you around. As the scion of the Shinto Way, you aren't respected at all. Since you've lost your honor, are you going to do what your tradition demands of you and kill yourself?"Shingen narrowed his eyes when he heard those words. Rather than losing himself to anger
"Ha… You want to accuse Mr. Shingen of using this as evidence? A video you got from gods know where?" Leighton scoffed.As expected of someone of his age and experience. Leighton narrowed his eyes, already thinking of a way to deal with this mess. "Someone like Mr. Shingen wouldn't have logically done something like this. It simply proves that you have plotted to crash this wedding for a long time! "While I don't want to acknowledge that the people from my country like to scheme this way, after seeing what you've offered today, I have no choice but to apologize to the world on behalf of all our countrymen. Our country is truly a country of fakes! I'm ashamed that all of you gotta see this. I am so sorry!"After saying those words unapologetically, Leighton glared at Harvey and continued coldly, "Harvey, stop humiliating yourself! Just acknowledge your shameful actions and that you want to crash this wedding. "Is it really that difficult? I know you're jealous of someone as succ
Everyone present at the wedding was stunned when they heard Yvonne's words. They didn't expect the marriage to have such a heinous secret.Crack!When Shingen heard those words from Yvonne, his face instantly darkened. The teacup in his hand broke into pieces.He didn't expect someone to save Sheldon.Didn't the Xaviers promise him that they were going to use Sheldon to force Yvonne to comply? Once Yvonne had married him, wouldn't they kill Sheldon? To make sure that things were done as promised, he even sent dozens of Shinto Way's elites to keep an eye on Sheldon.If Sheldon was saved and his henchmen didn't have any reaction at all…When that thought crossed Shingen's mind, he quickly took out his phone and dialed a few numbers. But then, he quickly crushed his phone. There was no exception. None of the calls went through—which meant something had happened to all the elites he had sent.He had lost even more!What was more, since Yvonne had openly revealed this, it didn't m
