Harvey York coldly glared at Ruby Murray.“You seem pretty calm. I’m curious: Are you willing to do everything it takes for Joseph Bauer’s sake?“Or are you expecting someone to save you right now?”Ruby let out a cold chuckle.“Neither. I know that you wouldn’t kill me.“Not just that, you wouldn’t even dare to cripple me!“After all, I belong to Young Master Bauer!“Not only will you suffer, but your friends and family will also suffer with you if you even lay a finger on me!“You think you have the upper hand, but that’s only because Young Master Bauer isn’t going all out on you yet!“When that happens, you won’t even be able to deal with his wrath!The distant look on her face completely replaced Ruby’s smile.“I suggest you don’t force our hand!“You better stop while you still can!”Harvey showed a faint smile.“It’s a shame that I don’t treat kindly to such threats. Besides, I’m always open to discussions.“If you beg nicely, maybe I’ll let you off the hook.“But
Harvey York smiled calmly.“Your big brother wouldn’t even dare threaten me like this, even though he’s so powerful. Who gave you the nerve to do this?“Make the call and release her!”Joseph Bauer’s face darkened in an instant.After the stock market battle, he had completely lost all patience to toy with Harvey any longer.Before he came here, he took an elixir from India that Clyde Osborne gave him so his strength would skyrocket.Then, Joseph took a step forward.A powerful wave of pressure instantly enveloped Harvey.Right at this moment, Harvey exerted more force on his foot.Along with the sound of a loud crack, Ruby Murray’s spine snapped.Even if she could be saved, she would still be crippled for life.Before Ruby passed out, her eyes were protruding while she was filled with disbelief.Joseph, who had always remained extremely discreet, finally showed his trump card…But Harvey still could not be bothered. Ruby could not believe that fact.At that very moment,
Joseph Bauer’s attack was extremely ferocious.He was using a lot of his force to throw the punch. He did manage to reach the threshold as a God of War…That said, he was initially just a King of Arms. Even after taking drugs, he could only maintain his strength for a short time.Harvey York had no interest in dealing with this.He held Mandy Zimmer close while casually swinging his palm forward.Slap!Along with a resounding slap, Joseph’s body trembled before he flew almost three hundred feet away before he landed on the ground again. Then, he stepped back another ten feet after that.A bright red palm print could be seen on his face.He covered his face in disbelief.“Who are you…?“How are you this terrifying?!”Naturally, Joseph was shocked that Harvey was not only good at scheming but also stronger than Joseph had ever imagined.Joseph was already using seventy percent of his strength for his attack…But not only did he not defeat Harvey, but he was also slapped asid
After all, this was Joseph Bauer himself!One of the top young masters of the Bauer family!The family’s future successor!How did he get crippled just like that?!How did he lose so easily?!Everyone was at a loss for words. All of them knew just how strong Joseph was…His strength drastically increased after taking the drug! He was on par with a God of War…But he still lost just like that!Everyone was in disbelief, but the cold hard truth was showing right in front of them.Joseph was disabled!He was finished!At this very moment, no excitement could be felt. Nobody was trying to take revenge for anyone either…Only faces filled with shock and despair could be seen.The men in suits would usually be fearless, but they were filled with utter fear after seeing someone cripple Joseph just like that.The beautiful women could not help but tremble after opening their eyes again…‘How is he this strong?’The men in suits looked at each other. Even though they still had t
Vroom!Right as Harvey York was taking Mandy Zimmer away, ten G-Wagons furiously rammed right past the fence into the villa.Murderous intent instantly spread out.Soon, dozens of men in robes jumped out of the cars.They all had their heads raised high with their eyes brimming with light. It was obvious that they were experts.The experts instantly surrounded Harvey and Mandy.The men in suits did not even make a single sound when they saw the experts.Even Joseph Bauer froze while he was still twitching on the ground.Then, he wretchedly smiled in front of Harvey, as if he had already won.Harvey squinted at the experts before him…But even before he could say anything, a dozen armed helicopters could be seen in the sky.The helicopters stopped mid-air. Heavy crossbows and modern firearms were poking out of it as soon as the cabin doors opened.Murderous intent filled the air.A glint of fear could be seen in Joseph’s eyes…But even at this point, Harvey was still as ca
“What?! How dare you threaten our young master?!“You should know that Young Master Bauer is most likely to become the new successor of the family!“You’re challenging the family’s dignity for humiliating Young Master Bauer!Lucca Bauer showed a horrible expression when he unsheathed his longsword and pointed it toward Harvey York’s head.“Surrender now, or don’t blame me for what happens next!”Lucca did not belong to Joseph Bauer, nor was he siding with Jeff Bauer.Rather, he belonged to the most discreet young master of the family, Harold Bauer himself.Harold did not know whether Harvey’s alliance with Jeff was real…But for the sake of his interests, he could not just standby and watch as Jeff trampled on Joseph.As long as Joseph did not die, the Bauer family would remain at a standstill.But if Joseph died, Harold would have to go against Jeff.Since he was not ready yet, he decided to put on this show.Joseph knew this. As soon as he saw Lucca show up, he knew there
“I’m the one being wronged here!Harvey York showed an innocent expression on his face.“My wife and I were only passing by here!“Though, I did see Joseph Bauer beating up Ruby Murray when we came here.“I think Ruby was also fighting back…“They were screaming all over the place too! It was a pretty good fight!“The others went to stop them after that before everything turned out this way.“This is the truth. It doesn’t matter if you believe me or not…“If there’s nothing else, then I’ll be going now.“My wife passed out when she saw such a bloody scene. I need to get her to a hospital…”Then, Harvey lifted Mandy onto the backseat of the Toyota Prado.Right when he was about to hop on the driver’s seat, Lucca Bauer immediately came to his senses before kicking the door shut.“Do you think I’m stupid or something?!“Ruby is Young Master Bauer’s most trusted subordinate! Even if she died, it wouldn’t be Young Master Bauer who did it!“At least find a better excuse to blam
The card had a gold stamp on it, labeling the name “Samuel Bauer”!Everyone immediately looked over after seeing such flamboyant calligraphy on the card.Joseph Bauer’s expression instantly worsened.Samuel Bauer was both the master of the Bauer family and Longmen.He rarely stayed with the family, so Grandma Bauer would usually be the one taking control.The card was handwritten to show Samuel’s trust in the person holding it. This was proof that Harvey York was Samuel’s important guest!After all, the card had the same authority as the man himself!Not just Joseph, everyone who belonged in the Bauer family was also showing horrendous looks.They could not fathom the fact that the card was with Harvey.In reality, Samuel had already given this to Harvey a long while ago, but he had never had the chance to use it.He did not expect that he would finally pull this out after so long.After seeing Lucca Bauer’s sluggish expression, Harvey reached out and patted his face.“What
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
