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
Axel Garcia was showing a deathly glare and a terrifying sense of dignity.The Indians who were there instinctively lowered their heads. They would not even dare to lock eyes with him.“Are none of you going to answer me?“Or are you saying that you’re not confident at all?“This wasn’t the case when you challenged those provincial champions,” said Axel in a deep and dry tone.“You said that Country H has nobody to compete against us, and India could crush their younger generation without our top talents doing anything.”“What? You’re giving up now?”The Indians all looked at each other before they stood up with their heads hanging low.“We’re just too weak, Master!”Axel scoffed coldly.“I don’t need you people to tell me that.“Did you not hear what I asked?“How confident are you in taking out the three young talents?!”“Not at all!” replied a man with a gloomy look.“But since this is war, we’ll fight with everything we’ve got, even if we’re no match against them! We’
After hearing Danny Burton’s words, Ryland Burlowe spoke up beside him.“Master Garcia, judging from the footage, Amber Levine and the others seem to be really knowledgeable at this point! They must be on par with a King of Arms as well…“And not just a beginner King of Arms either. They’re probably just one step away from becoming Gods of War.“The people here are exceptional. They’re in an entirely different league compared to the others of the same age, but they’re only Kings of Arms at best!“They have no chance of winning against Amber and the others!“Even if the three young talents have no experience in the outside world, their skills alone are definitely enough to make up for that!“The people here will surely lose if they go up against those three!”Zoe Garcia showed a faint smile.“Master Garcia, why force these people to embarrass themselves when they’re apparently out-skilled?” said Zoe with an apathetic tone.“What we need to show the world right now is our streng
“That said, you mentioned this to us when we were summoned!“You told us that we came to take revenge for Cody Garcia!“Not only are we trying to reclaim our fame, but we’re also going to crush the b*stard who tarnished our reputation and humiliated us!“We’ll force him to bear the shame for the rest of history!“But you haven’t even mentioned him once!“Isn’t he going to join the next fight?“I heard that he was calling us to the peak of Flutwell a week later. He claimed he was going to beat us all by himself, didn’t he?”Ryland Burlowe and Zoe Garcia were showing serious expressions on their faces after hearing about Harvey York.After all, that was the man who managed to defeat one of the Three Demon Monks.Even though people were spreading rumors, saying that Harvey won with underhanded tactics…Those three top talents knew that a win was still a win. This alone was enough to prove Harvey’s skill.Compared to Amber Levine and the others, they were more cautious toward Ha
A couple of days had swiftly gone by.Not only was Mandy Zimmer discharged from the hospital, but she was also back to work.Harvey York wanted to visit, but Lilian Yates was completely infuriated after recovering from her injuries.Harvey decided not to go after thinking that Lilian would definitely affect his mood.After telling Kayden Balmer to take care of the Hearthstone Corporation’s business, Harvey quietly waited inside the Martial Hall for his time to fight the Indians.While this was happening, Amber Levine, Philip Steele, and Albus Robbins had been asking him all sorts of questions.In their eyes, Harvey was just a rookie. They really believed they had no choice but to deal with the experts all on their own.Harvey did not say a word to clarify the misunderstanding.It would be good if the three young ones could deal with the Indians.After all, there would only be new talents if the younger generation surpassed the older ones.All of Flutwell was dead silent. It w
Reginald was already lying on the ground. But even when he was shaking, he yelled sternly, "Be gentler! My wife isn't getting any younger. What will I do if something happens to her?!"It was obvious that Reginald and his wife had a great relationship. Otherwise, he would not be so nervous.Meanwhile, Veer felt constrained as he was commanding the security guards. On one hand, he had to ensure the ropes were strong enough to keep his mother under control. On the other hand, he had to ensure the only security guards left would not touch her and collapse.If that happened, the Judd family would be history.When Marlee saw the chaos, she rushed in and quickly yelled, "Dad! I've brought Master Harvey here!""Master Harvey!" Veer hollered, as if he had seen his savior. "I've made the wrong decision earlier, but please forgive me and don't use it against me. Please, do something and help my family!"Even Reginald asked Harvey for help with a gentler tone. "Please, Master Harvey. I've m
The night was especially dark tonight.Harvey knitted his eyebrows when he arrived at the Judd family residence.The entire residence was covered in darkness, seemingly dilapidated. As the wind howled, he almost thought this was a haunted location and all manners of ghosts and spirits would show themselves."Master Harvey! You're finally here!" When Harvey was at the entrance, Marlee crawled out of the residence, her hair disheveled. She did not care about manners at all and simply dragged Harvey to the back of the residence immediately without any care.Harvey saw many members of the Judd family inside, but their faces were all panic-stricken and pale. All of them were shaking; some had even collapsed on the ground, convulsing. Some even had white foam coming out from their mouths.What was happening in the residence seemed apocalyptic."Harvey… No… Master Harvey… After you left, Eridan set up and began his ritual. Everything went well initially, but as soon as the six hours you
Vaughn blinked when he heard what Rachel had just said.Oh, damn!Even the women who served Harvey could be so full of pride? Just one move?Vaughn wanted to see how one move would be enough to take so many people down, especially when all of them were armed with dangerous weapons. Even if they were all to kneel and wait for Rachel to give them a slap, one move would not be enough, right?Harvey did not answer Vaughn as he looked at his confused look. Instead, Harvey simply signaled to him to watch. They simply looked at Rachel strolling toward the so-called fighters from the School of Astronomers. In the next instant, she closed her eyes. Her right hand pressed against the hilt of the blade on her waist. She instantly pulled the blade out in a flash, revealing a glint of silver light.And in a moment, all that could be heard within the courtyard was screams of pain as Vaughn looked in shock. All the fighters from the School of Astronomers had blood trails on their wrists or nec
Harvey blinked, stupefied. "They managed to expand the business of geology into something like that? I wonder what the founders of the School of Astronomers would think if they found out about this. Will they crawl out from their graves? Don't any of the top families know about this? Why do all of you still treat them as master geomancers?"Vaughn curled his lips. "Of course we know. But the School of Astronomers still held a lot of influence. No one was willing to reveal them for who they really are. Not to mention that they possess some great skills, and Eridan wasn't really someone without skills. That was how he managed to get the reputation of being the top geomancer in Wolsing…"Harvey nodded and glared at the leading man. "Looks like Eridan is very upset with me today for him to seek me out like this."However, almost six hours had passed, and the hour that Harvey spoke of was quickly arriving. To think that Eridan did not put his whole effort into preparing for it and instea
When Harvey, Vaughn, Tyson, and the others sat to have some coffee and prepared to order some food deliveries for a quick meal, a loud engine roar could be heard from outside the estate.Then, the door into the estate was kicked open and dozens of men in black walked in. All of them had vicious looks. It was obvious that they were not there to make friends.They all marched over when they saw Harvey and the others having coffee in the courtyard. Next, a slender man walked over with a machete and scanned the surroundings. He coldly asked, "Which one of you is Harvey York?"Show yourself so we can kill you. Don't make us hurt the innocents. I'll give you one minute. If you don't show up, don't blame me if I kill everyone here!"Then, the man holding a machete signaled and waved his hand. All the men in black behind him even pointed bolts hidden under their sleeves at Harvey and the others. Some even whipped out their firearms and showed their licenses, trying to demonstrate just how
Once Harvey was back in his estate, he did not dwell on what happened at the Judd family residence today. Instead, he reflected on what had happened in the past few days.Firstly, Vaughn was ready to take over the Thompsons of Wolsing with the support of Tyson and the others. Everything needed to be done before the end of Hector's mourning period, or at the very least on the day itself.Secondly, nothing could have been done with the Country H Commercial Group. Elric would not easily give up the post of the next chairman. Not only was this for his own benefit, but the fact that Emery wanted it was enough to make Elric do everything in his power to.Thirdly, it was about the Country H Martial Arts Alliance. He had already crippled one of the so-called Four Kings of the Alliance and took him as his own. No one would trouble him for the time being. The only thing he needed to do was to wait for the full moon's night, and he could finish everything in one swoop by crippling those from t
"That's enough, Veronica!" Marlee's face hardened. "No matter how good Master Eridan is, that's not a reason to treat Master Harvey like this. Not only did he heal Grandma in the first place, but we also have to respect him because he's willing to come to our family this time. We…""Enough!" Reginald was getting slightly annoyed, so he immediately made the decision. "It looks like I have no say in this despite being your grandfather, Marlee? Since you have so much to talk about, you can leave too. Otherwise, you'll take full responsibility if your grandmother's rest is interrupted!"Someone like Reginald knew how to humiliate someone without even pointing his finger at them. While he was scolding Marlee, he was actually humiliating Harvey. Since someone of his age hated the youths, who were so energetic and thought highly of their capabilities.Perhaps he did have some talent, but how could his talents compare to a true expert? It was as if he was the only one who could deal with th
"How dare you!" Eridan bellowed, his body shaking with anger. "You have a sharp tongue and like to make things up! I'm willing to bet on the reputation of the School of Astrologers that she will be fine for six days and nights!"I will use the Cleansing Technique in the arts of Geomancy to cleanse the evil spirits within her one more time. Then, I will slightly change the configuration before demolishing that mountain shrine! Everything will be solved then!"Then, Eridan pointed his finger at Harvey's face and said, "Stop criticizing my expertise when you do nothing, boy!""That's right. Stop being so proud over nothing," Veronica said to Harvey, having no liking for him at all. "Don't think I don't know just what kind of personality plebeians like you have. Do you think you can do anything you want, and will your status rise once you're acquainted with my family?"In the end, you're just making nonsense that won't be able to solve the problem and make it even worse. Only a piece o
"I'm willing to swear upon my School's name, Ms. Marlee, that I’m the only one who has the power to help the Judds of Wolsing," vowed Eridan with a puff at Marlee."Of course, if someone within your family doesn't trust me, it's fine. Have someone else deal with this, and I shall immediately take my leave. From now on, our school will never step into the Judd family residence, so you better think twice!" said Eridan coldly.It was apparent to all that Eridan was forcing the Judds of Wolsing to make a choice. If there were anyone who believed in Harvey, he would leave. The School of Astronomers had its pride to consider! His reputation as the best Geomancer in Wolsing was not something that was made up either. Whoever dared to question him was to challenge his entire school."Tell your daughter to leave with that charlatan!" Reginald stared at Veer without letting Veer have a chance to say anything. "Otherwise, everything will be too late if Master Eridan leaves because of his bad mo
