Harvey stood up. Rachel instinctively took a step backwards; she wouldn’t dare stand next to Harvey.Jeff froze at the sight.Elanor was confused as well.An impossible thought came to their minds right then and there.Harvey calmly smiled.“I am the head of Law Enforcement.”The disciples of Law Enforcement all saluted with stern expressions and swords in hand.“At your service, Head York!”“All hail Head York!”The sound echoed throughout the entire place.Jeff froze instantly; his mistresses became completely slack with shock as well.“Head York?!”Elanor was completely shocked; she figured out from Jeff that Harvey was probably supported by the head of Longmen’s Law Enforcement…But she never once thought that Harvey was the head himself!“Head York?”“People have been saying that the newly-appointed head of Law Enforcement is a God of War—a top talent with terrifying strength that the master of Longmen trusts. There’s no way he’s the man, right?”“How is it possibl
Before long, frantic footsteps could be heard from outside.It was clear there were a lot more people outside, more than Jeff’s experts.Blood would fill up the entire building if the situation wasn’t handled properly!After hearing Harvey’s words, Jeff’s trusted subordinate stepped forward. The man screamed, “Even if you’re the head of Law Enforcement, what gives you the right to bark at Young Master Bauer?!”“Longmen and the Bauer family are two different things! You think you can just get involved with the family’s affairs so easily?!”People were completely moved by the subordinates’ words. They started screaming in unison.They were all claiming that the head of Law Enforcement had no right to take down Jeff.At the same time, a few other subordinates saw people with crossbows and sniper rifles peeking their heads out on the high ground, waiting for the moment to pull the trigger.“True, Longmen does not have the right to govern the Bauer family…”Harvey’s words made the
Swoosh!Harvey took the initiative and stepped forward.His movement didn’t seem fast to the naked eye, but it was quicker than anyone’s imagination.In a blink of an eye, he was already standing in front of Jeff.Jeff’s trusted subordinates couldn’t even react to the situation.Slap!Jeff, who was screaming to fight back, was instantly sent flying by a hard slap across his face; blood splattered everywhere as he slammed right into a pillar behind him.Before he could get back off the ground, a cold hand was already grabbing him by the neck.Slap!Harvey swung the back of his palm across Jeff’s face, waking up Jeff right as he was about to pass out.“You’re pretty boring, Young Master Bauer.”“Why do you always have to be such a glutton for punishment? I get so exhausted just by talking to you.”“I’m asking you this one last time…”“How will you choose?”The crowd was dead silent.‘How?!’‘How is this possible?!’Jeff was a martial arts expert!Even though he was no G
Out of the three young masters of the family, Jeff was a conceited man and Joseph had remained distant.Even so, the two were prominent figures who enjoyed being the center of attention.Harold was different; he had been loved by Grandma Bauer since he was a child. He had always been discreet and rarely showed himself to the public.The world knew that there were three young masters, but not a lot of people knew what Harold looked like or what he was capable of.After so many years, Harold quietly took control of everything Grandma Bauer handed to him.He was an extremely patient man as well; other than sending a few people to test Joseph after his failure…He didn’t attack Flutwell’s business alliance, nor did he try to take the properties all to himself.He was a ghost without a shadow.But when he showed up at this moment, everyone could tell just how powerful he was—his immense authority within the Bauer family was on clear display.His presence and attention alone had alr
“Of course, if you have to put it your way, I wouldn’t mind it.”“That said, I believe you’re a smart man.”“Why go against the Bauer family when you already have what you want?”“After all, there’s no grudge between us!”“Besides, the Bauer family and Longmen are different entities. However, the master of both had always been the same since ancient times.”“Even if you don’t respect me, at least think of that person as well.”“Can you only be satisfied by going against the Bauer family?”Harold showed a faint smile; an unspeakably grim yet insulting look could be seen on his face.Unlike Jeff and Joseph, Harold seemed more like the wolf in sheep’s clothing.Not only was he hard to deal with, but he was also quite the cunning and sinister man.Harvey narrowed his eyes at him for a while before revealing a faint smile.“You’re right about that.”“I can hand Jeff to you…”“But I have a few conditions.”“I’ll do everything I can, as long as it's in my power!” Harold replied
Rachel, who had a strong heart, couldn’t help but gasp upon hearing Harvey’s words.The Longmen Summit was only an event of the underworld, but top talents from Longmen, the Bauer family, and various martial arts backgrounds were involved with it.Safe to say that the champions of the provincial qualifiers were one of the best out of the younger generation…But before they could even participate in the actual Longmen Summit, they were already defeated by the experts from India!This was the equivalent of disrespecting all thirty-five branch leaders of Longmen! Rachel and the others were completely shocked by this.“You’re not joking, right?” Rachel asked.“How can I even joke about this?”Harvey took a deep breath and explained the entire situation.In recent days, Axel, one of India’s three Demon Monks who was as popular as Cody, led a group of experts to Country H.Out of fear for Harvey, he decided to challenge the provincial champions of the Longmen Summit first.Not only
“Everyone’s looking up about this right now!”“All of Country H is in an uproar!”“Some accused the Indians of being heinous, hiding their identities to challenge the champions so they’d let their guard down!”“Some were furious with the champions for challenging the Indians before they figured out their identities!”“Of course, there are people calling out Country H’s martial arts world to be filled with useless people, saying that Longmen is filled with a bunch of posers!”“The Longmen Summit has become the country’s disgrace!”“And it’s all because the thirty-five so-called provincial champions weren’t able to defeat a bunch of Indians!”“I heard that the vice master of Longmen, the person in charge of Longmen’s daily affairs, is holding an emergency meeting to figure out how to de-escalate the situation.”“The vice master?”Harvey frowned.“The master of Longmen isn’t taking action when this is going on? Is he really on his last breath at this point?”“Do we have any inf
Rachel chuckled bitterly.“Of course I know that, Sir York…”“But have you thought this through?”“You’re the only one left!”“How are you going to fight them? They’ll tire you out before you can even do anything!”“Even if Longmen gets thirty-six more young top talents to fight…”“What if they all lose again?”“Who’s going to take responsibility?”“The Indians are fully prepared for this. They said those things to the media because they’re confident in themselves.”“They were probably picked based on the weaknesses of the Longmen experts, too.”“If that wasn’t the case, they wouldn’t dare challenge the provincial champions after knowing that you participated in the Longmen Summit.”“If the Indians lose again, they’ll become the biggest joke of the entire world.”“The allies they gathered in the surrounding areas will flock toward Country H if they lose.”“This is definitely a big gamble for them.”“Not only are they trying to reclaim their pride, but they’re also plannin
"Of course, you can. You're the leader of the Judd family!" Veronica said to Veer in a sarcastic tone. "However, to think that you've mistreated our mother… Aren't you supposed to resign already?"Veer coldly replied, "Don't worry. Even if I do resign, you won't be the next leader. So you can stop dreaming about it already."The corner of Veronica's lips twitched. She had wanted to say something else when an old man with white hair came out from the inner chamber at that moment. With a cold voice, he rebuked them, "Enough! Your mother is still unconscious in bed right now, but all of you argue amongst yourselves here. Where are your manners?"I have not been managing things for many years, but do I no longer have any influence within the family?"Veer narrowed his eyes a little when he saw the old man. Then, he stepped forward and bowed his head. "I understand, father."After seeing Veer's attitude, he turned his attention to Veronica and the others. "It's the same for all of you.
"It's your choice whether to believe it or not," said Harvey casually."Oh, come on," laughed Veer. "Since we've invited you all the way here, of course we believe you. Let's see… Please come this way."Then, Veer gestured and led him deeper into the estate. Harvey did not refuse and narrowed his eyes as he looked into the sky. He could already see a dark cloud gathering on top of the estate.In another courtyard, there was a huge lawn where a helicopter had landed. It was enough to show just how much wealth the Judd family had. But when Veer saw the helicopter, he was slightly surprised and asked, "Why is he back home?""He?" Harvey was quite curious. Veer was the leader of the Judd family. Could it be that someone else scared him within the family?When Veer saw Harvey's expression, he explained, "You probably didn't know this, but despite being the leader of the Judds of Wolsing, my father still has authority over me. However, he has been training in isolation all these years i
After a brief hesitation, Veer slowly spoke to Harvey. "Well… Let's start after you helped us deal with the problem haunting my mother. After that, all the seniors of the Judd family believed that there were some issues with the geomancy of this place. So, we were thinking of finding a new place to call home."However, the Judds are a big family. We have to make arrangements for many things. If we simply moved to another place, some might think that the Judd family is starting to fall. That's why we had to give up on moving, which meant the only other option left for us was to adjust the geomancy of this place."If you had asked me then, I would have asked you to help us with this since we shouldn't ask two persons to deal with the same problem. However, many elders rejected my proposal, saying you're too young and inexperienced."Ultimately, we asked Wolsing's top geomancer, Master Eridan, who has long stopped seeing any guests, to help us. Initially, everything went well. But afte
Veer cleared his throat and said, "Firstly, allow me to apologize on behalf of my nephew. He already informed me about Nelly and is now kneeling inside our estate's chapel. As he said, he will repent for three days and nights. Since he can't leave at the moment, he asked me to send you his apologies. "Other than apologizing for my nephew, please allow me to apologize to you on behalf of the Judds of Wolsing. The reason for all of this is because we aren't strict enough with our education and discipline. I swear in my family's name that things like this won't ever happen again in the future. We will also take full responsibility for cleaning up all the despicable acts that happen in the entertainment industry within Judd Entertainment."Veer was unsure how to feel when he said something like that. How could he not know that the sons of the Judd family had other women outside? But the problem was, it was fine for them to keep other women. But why did they allow those women to provoke
Harvey squinted his eyes and whispered to Marlee, "I don't know who your family has invited to change the geographical features of your estate, but the worst thing he did was to move away the two statues at the gate."If I'm right, your grandmother's condition has already stabilized initially. After changing the geological features, she should be pretty energetic as well. However, she is starting to feel a little numb after the two statues have been moved. "In the beginning, all of you thought it was just because she was getting older. You also started to feel something was wrong during these few days, right?"Marlee was a little shocked. "Why does it feel like you've witnessed the entire thing?"Then, Harvey explained, "Everything leaves a trace, and it's the same for geomancy. Don't tell me you think I won't be able to see something has changed when you move the two statues that protect the fortune of your entire family?"If you ask me, the geomancer you've hired is either not
Nelly fell on her knees without delay and started to slap herself dozens of times. Finally, she muttered an apology to Xynthia before turning tail and fled.It was obvious that after what had happened, she was no longer the queen bee of the advertising department. What Sawyer had said also meant that she would become a non-person in the entertainment industry. Someone like her would not have a good ending.However, Harvey was unaffected despite knowing how Nelly's life would end. Instead, he thought she deserved it. It was already quite lenient for her to end up like this for a woman who did not know her place and wanted to bully her juniors.-After it was all done, Marlee invited Harvey to a three-story office building that was only a couple hundred feet away.Xynthia and Journi followed them there. The two were similarly quite surprised when they saw Marlee's change of attitude toward Harvey.Marlee did not know who Xynthia was, but she was acquainted with Journi. They just di
"Tell him to give me his name!" Sawyer said. "I don't care if he is in Wolsing or anywhere in Country H. I'll make sure he regrets ever coming to this world!"Sawyer sounded extremely domineering, and his tone was very arrogant. It was as if the entire world was his to destroy whenever he wanted to. Not to mention, one could hear from his tone that he did not care about Marlee at all.Marlee's expression darkened, and she wanted to speak.However, Harvey waved his hand and said, "Sawyer Judd, is it? Allow me to introduce myself. I'm Harvey York. If you still don't know who I am, you can ask your leader or your grandmother. You can speak to me once you know who I am."Also, your woman has harassed my younger sister and that upsets me a lot. You better be able to give me an explanation. It would be best if you could give me one. If you can't, I'll give you one instead."Harvey calmly replied, but his words were even more domineering than Sawyer's from the other side.What the hell?
"Mr. York, why did you suddenly visit Judd Entertainment? Do you have any order for me?" asked Marlee Harvey in a serious tone."Not exactly," Harvey pointed at Xynthia with his right hand. "That's my younger sister over there, but we're not biologically related. She's currently working at Judd Entertainment. But what happened? Your advertising department's superstar is forcing her to sleep with an old man, otherwise she'll ruin her career."I'm here to question you on behalf of my younger sister. Is this a company rule?"When Marlee heard what Harvey had to say, her eye twitched, and she quickly turned around and slapped Nelly, who was caught completely unprepared.Nelly cried out in pain as she held her face and landed on the ground, looking at Marlee in disbelief. "Don't you worry, Mr. York. I'll give you a satisfying explanation about this."Harvey calmly said, "This is not the first time we met each other, Marlee. So, I know this has nothing much to do with you. That's why
Harvey had ignored Nelly's taunts and continued with the countdown. "Three minutes."At this time, Journi approached them from the back. Journi gave Xynthia a strange look and then said to the woman from upper management, "Here's my advice. You should give Ms. Marlee a call right now. Otherwise… I don't think you'll be able to shoulder the consequences."Compared to Harvey, who was wearing something quite plain, the outfit Journi was wearing, while still minimalistic, was all from luxury brands and could only be bought through reservations.She was wearing the Lady Arpels Pont des Amoureux watch, worth hundreds of thousands.What Journi was wearing gave immense pressure to the woman and, after a moment of hesitation, she pulled out her phone and started to dial a number."Oh ho! So, you're a sugar baby!" Nelly said derisively as she instinctively grew hostile to Journi when she saw her. "A sugar baby saving a damsel in distress, becoming the white knight of another woman… How can
