“Enough of this nonsense!”“Do you think I care about stupid details like right or wrong?”“Nothing is greater than my reputation!”Koen was clearly annoyed.“Since you’re from Golden Palace as well, I’ll give you a chance.”Koen was already informed of what had happened.“Number one: give my cousin the money she wants!”“Number two: get those three little b*stards to work for her for free! What’s more, they have to do that for three whole years.”“Number three: make them kneel on the spot!”“You’ll come with me after that! I’ll let it slide when all of the conditions are met!”“If not, then don’t blame me for what happens next.”“You’re the ones in the wrong! You can’t do this!” Layne exclaimed in a trembling voice.“What? You’re going to talk reason with me?!” Koen instantly lashed out.“You think I’m scared to go against you people?!”“Even after I destroy this place and cripple the little b*stards, you’ll still have to do everything as I say!”“Golden Palace is eve
“I’m not the same as you.”Harvey looked calmly at Koen.“I stomp on countless young masters with malicious intent all the damn time. This is getting really annoying for me.”“That said, I wouldn’t mind dealing with another if you have a death wish.”“Golden Palace can’t help you here.”Harvey pointed at the mean woman, his face cold.“Besides, I changed my mind.”“I want that woman to grovel in front of my friends as an apology. I want her to beg for their mercy.”“If she doesn’t do that, I’ll cripple her myself. You have my word!”“Even God can’t get her out of this!”“Oh?”Koen chuckled, filled with unbridled rage.“You’ve got guts, young man!”“You’re saying that you’ll go against me?!”“I understand having a little bit of ego because of your accomplishments…”“But there aren’t a lot of people as cocky as you!”“I can turn you into a damn porcupine if I want to! Don’t believe me?!”Koen waved his hand, and the people behind him fiercely pointed their crossbows at H
“Interesting. Really interesting…”Koen clapped, his face cold.“Not bad. Not bad at all.”“It’s my first time seeing someone insulting me and slapping my men away in Flutwell!”“Impressive!”“Enough yapping. Are you making her kneel or not?” Harvey said, not wasting a single second.“Or would you rather me teach her how to do things instead?”“What the f*ck?! I can’t believe you’re cockier than I am!”Koen was cackling out of pure rage; his expression was completely twisted as he laughed out loud.“Let me tell you something, kid! My people will not apologize!”“On the contrary, you’ll have to kneel in front of her house for three whole days!”“If not, I’ll make sure to come for you sooner or later!”“You have no chance no matter how strong your support is!”“I’m giving you thirty seconds to think about it. Kneel and crawl out of the entrance, then keep kneeling there!”“If you don’t, I’ll break every single limb you have!”“And if you resist, I’ll kill you on the spot!”
“They’re the young talents who are challenging the Indians on behalf of Longmen?” Koen said with a parched mouth as if he realized something.“What? They’re going against the Indians?”“These young masters are here on a mission?”“Someone from Golden Palace is forcing these people to be private instructors for their own gain?”The crowd started to show more doubt.The disciples of Golden Palace felt extremely sluggish as they gripped their crossbows.As the only sacred martial arts training ground in Flutwell, Golden Palace naturally knew that the Indians brought their own top talents to challenge Longmen.They knew Longmen had three top talents out to fight back as well.These were the children who were constantly pampered by the people around them!They were tasked to fight the Indians on behalf of Longmen!This was war!If anyone dared to touch these children before that, not just the outer disciples of Golden Palace, even the lord would have to pay!Koen trembled before
Koen’s eyes and mouth couldn’t stop twitching.He didn’t know what to say in front of Harvey.He’d be challenging Longmen’s authority if he said that he didn’t respect the organization in the first place; this was not something a mere outer disciple of Golden Palace could do.That said, he would be disrespecting himself if he acknowledged Longmen and the identities of the people in front of him.Thus, Koen wouldn’t dare say a single word; he could only look down in silence, his face awful.Many times, silence was also a form of agreement.Koen’s reaction shocked the entire crowd.They didn’t expect Harvey to completely dominate Koen by just showing his identity.The other disciples of Golden Palace looked at each other with awkward glances; they were completely forced into a corner.“Looks like Longmen still has some uses after all.”After seeing Koen remain silent, Harvey chuckled before looking back at the three young talents, who were in complete shock.“Did you learn any
“Oh?”“You’re threatening me?”“Pull the trigger if you dare!”“If I even blink, I’ll lick your damn boots!” Harvey exclaimed.The follower’s eyes twitched frantically, and cold sweat dripped down his back.He never imagined Harvey would be this headstrong.He knew exactly what he would get himself into if he did pull the trigger.Not only would he be cursed by the people, but Longmen and Golden Palace would most likely go to war because of this as well.No matter how angry he was, he couldn’t afford to pull the trigger.“What? You can’t?!”“What a wuss!”Harvey slapped the disciple away.He stepped forward calmly before going at the rest of the followers.Sounds of slapping could be heard all over the place.In just a single moment, the arrogant and domineering disciples of Golden Palace were all slapped to the ground; they wouldn’t even dare say a single word as they covered their faces.If this was any other day, they wouldn’t be afraid of Harvey’s identity…However,
Bam, bam, bam!Before Harvey could say anything else, the arrogant people immediately slammed their knees to the ground.Amber and the others straightened their backs at the sight; they felt extremely refreshed.…“B*stard! That goddamn b*stard!”After a long while, the people who had been kneeling till their legs were giving out crawled back into their cars.The mean woman sat in front of Koen with a twisted expression.“We can’t just let this go his way, Young Master Bierstadt!”“Our reputation will be completely tarnished!”“If we don’t do anything to stop Harvey from becoming the master of Longmen, we won’t have another chance to take revenge!”Clearly, these people weren’t grateful for Harvey’s mercy; they didn’t even care to reflect on themselves the slightest.As soon as they left, they were already thinking about revenge.Koen took a deep breath and spoke up after a long while.“Don’t worry. I won’t let it end like this!”“He thinks he can become the new master of
“Who told you that I couldn’t fight?!“I don’t need to consume anything just to become stronger!Harvey York was utterly at a loss for words as he rubbed his temples.“First of all, I didn’t fight because there were too many people around me!“If enemies were hiding amongst the crowd, Longmen and the Golden Palace would actually be at war when they decide to provoke us!“Second of all, I’m trying to make you understand something!“It’s not all about fighting! Relationships matter too!“Before people start fighting in the movies, why do you think the main character would always ask for someone’s name first?“It’s simple. They want to know if they can actually afford to go against their opponents!“If the opponent has an immense background and support, it wouldn’t matter if the main characters can win!“Think about this. Main characters would always come from well-known organizations! They’re all respected by everyone!“We can’t always use our fists to talk for us, right?“Th
Harvey narrowed his eyes. "Early?"Yvonne nodded. "Correct. According to our sources, he went to a rest stop about 10 miles away from Wolsing to pick up someone."Harvey was quite curious. "Who can make Linus so passionate to welcome? Who is this person?"Yvonne massaged her forehead. "Speaking of which, this man can be considered your subordinate in a way. Unfortunately, it's fate that he won't be under your control."Harvey narrowed his eyes. "Someone from the Sacred Martial Arts Training Grounds?""That's right. The scion of the Sacred Martial Arts Training Grounds in Parkerville, Dan Parker. Previously, he requested to marry someone from the Wright family, and the Wright family had officially responded. He'll soon be the son-in-law of the Wright family," Yvonne explained sternly.Harvey was slightly stunned. "The son-in-law of the Wright family? Which means…Sienna's fiancé?"Meanwhile, at the rest stop 10 miles away… The rest stop which was usually quite plain was lavishly
Harvey had been freed, but there was still some paperwork that needed to be done.Harvey was patient, as if he really wanted the key to the city and prevent Country A from trying to stir up another storm with him. He was very cooperative throughout the entire process.Only once all the paperwork was done did Soren sigh in relief. "Leave the rest to us, Harvey. In the next few days, stay discreet so no one will get you into any problem.""What? I've already proven that I'm innocent. What kind of problems will there be?" Harvey said curiously.Soren didn't want to hide anything from Harvey and said with a bitter smile, "I won't lie to you. While the people who died were from Country H, they had already obtained permanent residency in Country A, which meant that they were a part of Country A as well. Just today, Country A's side had already given us pressure through their embassy."Logically speaking, we have to find the culprit as soon as possible. However, all the evidence we've co
Ten minutes later, Soren personally asked Harvey to join him in the director's office. After a pot of hot tea had been brewed and poured, he sighed and said, "I'm so sorry for today. It's my subordinates' blunders. He did whatever he wanted already despite just being promoted. I'll be sure to make up to you."Harvey smiled. "I can understand that with your family's size, you'll inadvertently end up with a few people with questionable behavior. You better keep an eye on things and don't let one person ruin everything for you and your family. Wolsing is different from Golden Sands. You have to be extremely careful when you're here."Harvey's words were cold, but it was enough to make Soren think about it. Meanwhile, Garrick, who was standing there with his arms next to him, almost fell on his knees as he felt his legs lose strength. Since simple words from Harvey had already ended his future."Of course… It's best if someone can correct themselves after knowing the errors of their
"Ha! What an idiot! Who does he think he is? If he really is someone important, why is he even here?" Snowe sneered.The only emotion Snowe had for Harvey was disdain. She despised men who have no capabilities at all the most.Garrick and the others went to the main hall of the precinct. Everyone from Country A had been told to go home. At this moment, a row of cars with flags drove toward the entrance of the precinct. Judging from the car plates and the flags on the car, it was obvious the person inside the car was someone important within the police force. Very quickly, the door was opened. Garrick and the others saw the most important and newly promoted man within the police force in Wolsing—Soren Braff, ranked two within the Braff family.There were several high-level members of the police force with him in white uniforms, and all of them exuded an incredibly powerful presence. The moment Garrick and the others saw Soren appearing, they quickly greeted him with a smile."Wh
Hearing Harvey's conversation, the beautiful female officer said in disdain, "What? Are you pretending to contact someone from the Braff family? Do you think that's enough to scare the director? Our director is someone important within the family! If you really know the people from the Braff family, why wouldn't he know you?"I'm telling you right now. If you really did call someone from the Braff family, I, Snowe Leo, will eat this phone right in front of everyone!"In the beginning, Garrick was taken aback as well. But after he quickly glanced at the number on the screen, he smiled coldly. "You probably didn't know this, but aside from the number of my family's patriarch, I've saved the number of everyone important in the family. Do you want to trick me using just a random number? You're quite bold!""Really, now?" Harvey said with a smile. "At the very least, you know that you don't have the right to know his number. In that case, I'll help you delete that number. It won't be g
"Ha… I'm the director of the precinct in the Third Ring, and I'm not worth your time?" Garrick was so angry that he was laughing. "You made yourself sound like you're someone very capable. Come on, show me just how capable you are right now!"Garrick immediately grabbed his phone and tossed it at Harvey. "Come on, make a call! If you can find someone who can overpower me, I'll bend my knee right now."The other two officers also looked at Harvey as if they were looking like a fool. "Forget the fact that you're just an ex-live-in son-in-law… Even if you really did become a CEO through your own abilities, what is there to be proud of?" the female officer said with a smirk. In her eyes, Harvey was just a loser. If a man like him wanted to pursue her, he would have already kicked him to the rub.Harvey didn't waste his breath and immediately picked up the phone, giving Eliel Braff a call. Very quickly, the call came through and a stern voice came from the other side. "Who is thi
"Your deduction is quite interesting. Sounds like a detective show, to be honest," Harvey said calmly. "Unfortunately, I have a clear conscience. Why should I admit to a crime I never committed?""Not you?" The female officer slammed the table again. "If you didn't do it, why are you so willing to cooperate with us? You're telling me it isn't because you're feeling guilty? Harvey York, you have to understand that the crime you committed is very serious, especially when the person you killed is from Country A!"If the Embassy sends a specialist to interfere with this investigation, you're going to be in trouble. You better confess when the precinct can still help you. Otherwise, I'm afraid there's nothing you can change no matter how much you regret it in the future."Their phones would buzz every once in a while, which meant new information coming in. From the new information, not only was Harvey the live-in son-in-law of the Jeans of Mordu, one of the top ten families, but he was a
"A lawyer?" Garrick scoffed. "Forget about a lawyer, it's pointless even if you find a wizard! I've already read your information. The CEO of Sky Corporation? Maybe in other cities, the CEO of a public company deserves some respect, but don't forget that this is Wolsing, the country's seat of power! There are plenty of CEOs walking around here!"When you're in Wolsing, it doesn't matter who you are, or what kind of special identity you have. Those who commit crimes here will be punished! You won't be given any special treatment!"Garrick then looked at Harvey as if he had an advantage over him. "Confess the crimes you've committed! That way, I can grant you some leeway. Otherwise, you'll suffer a terrible death!"Harvey merely looked at Garrick briefly and said, "You didn't interrogate me, and you didn't show me any evidence. All you do is to tell me to confess. I must say, you're quite tough. But aren't you afraid of accidentally offending the wrong people here in Wolsing, especial
Yvonne frowned slightly when she realized what Garrick meant. "Director, my boss isn't a suspect. He's only here…""Whether he's a suspect or not isn't up to you or me. It's up to the law and the evidence," Garrick said, glaring at Yvonne. His gaze became somewhat sleazy, and he began to scheme how he could use this scenario to throw this beautiful woman into his bed.He continued to say righteously, "Ma'am, I'm warning you. You better not interrupt our investigation. Of course, if you have something to say, you can always lodge a complaint to the office."After that, he waved his hand, and the two officers behind him led Harvey into the interrogation room. Seeing what had happened, Yvonne hesitated a little before sending out a message quickly on her phone.This was something quite serious. If Harvey went in because of this, it would be quite troublesome for the Xavier family as well. Unfortunately, it wouldn't be convenient for the Xaviers to do anything…Meanwhile, Harvey w
