“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
Swish, swish, swish!Harvey ignored the crowd as he carefully drew on the talismans.He had learned this trick from an old priest on the battlefield back in the day.The priest said the blood of a God of War could dispel almost anything.That said, one had to learn how to use the blood first.For example, evil energy within a person’s body could only be banished through paper talismans that could generate energy opposite from that.Harvey learned all sorts of drawings from the priest.After finishing a complicated drawing, Harvey swung his hand and threw the talisman on the unconscious inspector’s head.Pffft!The talisman went up in flames; as the fire danced in the air, the talisman gradually sucked the darkness on the inspector’s face until it was all gone.Soon after, the talisman turned to ashes before dispersing into the wind.Everyone was shocked. The whole thing felt like a dream.Everyone knew there were all sorts of mystical arts hidden within the underworld, but
"Not to mention, these are weapons that Grand City's top brass directly controls. If it isn't because I've taken control over Earth Hall recently, I wouldn't have been able to take these out," Clarion said with a sigh.Harvey nodded. "Looks like letting you control Earth Hall is one of my correct decisions after coming to Grand City."Then, Harvey narrowed his eyes and looked ahead. "Clarion. Take your men and attack from the outer ring. Do your best to reach the destination and save our people."Clarion blinked. "And you?"Harvey said, "Always go for the head. A truly powerful elite must be keeping an eye on everything. If we don't eliminate him, our rescue will be destined to fail."Harvey slammed his foot on the ground before jumping into the air, his figure quickly disappearing into the horizon. He noticed that there were plenty of elites converging. This was Sky Plane's territory. No matter how many he killed, his enemies would most likely swarm him.If that was the case,
While Clarion and Harvey were talking, the Origin Sword Style elites were already slowly coming closer.600 feet. 300 feet. 150 feet!As they drew closer, everyone could see their murderous expression. Their firearms already had their safety off. One could also see there were no longer any gaps in their encirclement.With how things were going, the only two options for Harvey and his men were to either get killed or to simply surrender.As they drew closer, not only was Clarion sweating, but all his bodyguards also had cold sweat on their foreheads.Only Harvey wasn't doing anything. He simply narrowed his eyes as if he was quietly calculating something. When there were only 60 feet left, he suddenly said, "You have two seconds."Harvey suddenly slammed his foot on the ground.Boom!A powerful shockwave extended outward, and all the Origin Sword Style elites surrounding them were subconsciously stunned. The shield they were holding momentarily left the ground."Warsong! Fire
At Clarion's order, all his bodyguards immediately dragged out several black suitcases. Within were black holes with blue bullets. It was obvious these bullets were created to be used on Martial Arts elites. The damage they could deal was beyond anyone's imagination.The bodyguards stood in front of Harvey and Clarion with the suitcases, ready to fight their enemies to the bitter end.When the Origin Sword Style elites saw how Harvey and the others reacted, they took out a shield and placed it in front of them. It was obvious they were prepared.Or perhaps, it was easier to say that the Origin Sword Style elites already knew what they had prepared.Clarion's expression darkened. "How did these fools manage to guess we're here with the Warsongs?"Harvey narrowed his eyes. "Is there a possibility that they didn't make a guess, but instead already received news about how many people we brought and what kind of weapons, so they could make preparations for us?"Clarion was stunned. "W
Boom! Boom! Boom!There was a string of explosions in mid-air. The bolts had also been engulfed by the explosion. Even after Harvey had managed to negate the attacks, he didn't stop. He grabbed the rocks from the ground with his hand.Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!Several elites hidden in the shadows instantly lost their fighting skills."He really is a True Warrior," Clarion muttered when he saw what happened. He wasn't even sure what to say.He thought he should be able to put himself to some use this time, hence why he asked to come with Harvey. He didn't expect Harvey to be so powerful that he needed others at all.Very quickly, all the attackers gathered. It was obvious they knew they couldn't do anything to Harvey anymore."These people are from the Origin Sword Style!" Clarion said seriously after he looked at what the attackers were wearing. "They're quite troublesome. While they look like they're over-the-top, they're most likely sacrificial soldiers. But the problem is t
"Of course, if we can maintain absolute discretion, we can escape without alerting anyone once we find Ms. Mandy," Clarion said, remaining positive. "That way, we don't have to fight and draw the attention of those who hold power in Sky Plane."Harvey was sitting in the van. He frowned and looked at the buildings with clear Island Nation influence. "Since Daichi is blackmailing me using Mandy, that means they're confident we won't be able to take her away. I believe we'll have to fight with those from the Origin Sword Style today."Harvey gave it a thought for a while and said, "And don't you think that the information Vaida gave us is too accurate? As if someone left behind an opening for us."Clarion's eyes widened. "Don't tell me this is a trap just for us?"Harvey shook his head. "Not only for us, but also for Grand City. If we're really stuck here… It doesn't matter if we're killed or captured alive, we'll become the excuse for them to attack Grand City. This time, we must…"
Sky Plane's countryside, Clover Hotel.In the Clover Hotel's VIP area, a mansion at the edge of the hotel, Mandy was looking outside with a deep frown. At this time, someone gently knocked at her door from the outside."Come in," Mandy said.The leader of the security team, Seven Jean of the Jeans of Mordu, came in. He bowed to Mandy with respect before saying calmly, "Ms. Mandy, according to the information I've received, the women you've saved have been sent out of Sky Plane. I've also confirmed the people we came into conflict with. He's Yamamoto Sora, scion of the Origin Sword Style."The school's status is very high in Sky Plane. While we managed to get some protection for the time being, I believe we won't be able to make this disappear so quickly. Our visa only has an effective duration of seven days. Once the time is up, Sky Plane will have an excuse to remove all the security here. We'll be in danger when that happens."I think we should leave Sky Plane immediately whil
Mandy reacted very quickly, as if she understood something. She quickly said to Harvey through the phone, "I'm on the sixth floor of a hotel! I…"Before she could even finish, Daichi had already hung up the call with a tap. He then gave Harvey a meaningful look. "There are some rules you should keep, Mr. Harvey. Otherwise, if the people from Sky Plane's side have a misunderstanding, I can't tell what will happen next."Alright. Let's get into the main topic. Ms. Mandy is very safe right now, but I believe that her safety can only be maintained for two to three days. My men can't continue protecting her without a good reason, right? "Once it has been confirmed that there's nothing here that I want, my people who maintain her protection will be pulled back immediately. No one can tell what will happen after that."Daichi gave Harvey a dry smile. "That's why you'll be in control of Ms. Mandy's life and death. We are people who keep our side of the deals. We hope you can maintai
Harvey's expression was calm as he said coldly to Daichi, "No matter how good and logical you make it sound, the truth is, you're threatening me. Rather than being threatened by the Sky Plane, why don't you stick around and be my hostage for an exchange?"As soon as Harvey had finished saying that, he slammed his hand on the table. A piece of wood immediately fired out from the table and pierced into the chair's backrest, just next to Daichi's ear.However, Harvey was in for a surprise. Even in a situation like this, Daichi was still able to maintain his calmness as he continued to enjoy his meal. It was as if the one about to die here wasn't him.Once Daichi had chewed his food slowly and swallowed it, only then did he smile at Harvey. "Mr. Harvey, or Mr. Representative. Do you really think fighting can solve everything? It's true I'm from the branch family of the Ruling Royal Family and the blood of royalty flows in my veins, but there are too many like me. So many that I am eas
"Most importantly, this matter with Ms. Mandy happened in Sky Plane—which means outsiders can't enter quietly and save her," Daichi said to Harvey with a smile. "But don't worry, Harvey. We know Ms. Mandy is yours, so we'll find a way to keep protecting her. How to protect her and for how long would depend on your sincerity, though."Harvey's expression was cold as he said slowly, "And here I thought you'd tell me you'd do everything to protect Mandy, making a show despite how shameless you are. I didn't expect you to be so direct—in threatening me! If I refuse your request, Mandy will immediately fall into Sora's hand, right?"Daichi smiled faintly. "You're indeed a perceptive and decisive man. It makes things easier for me to work with someone like you. I will tell you what you need to do—or perhaps, it's easier for me to say what price you need to pay for Mandy's return."Daichi took a final bite of his fish and said with a smug smile, "It's simple. Give me the Chapter of Ascensi
