Emily glared fiercely at Harvey.“Don’t think you can boss us around just because you have the footage!”“Don’t think that these people will side with you, either!”“Let me tell you something! They’re all related to me!”“No matter what we do, they’ll never stand on your side! Rather, they’d forget everything that ever happened!”Emily looked around her with a cold gaze.“Come on! Tell this young man what you saw and heard!”Naturally, Emily wanted to test Golden Palace’s authority and status in Flutwell.The guests exchanged glances before shaking their heads.“Nothing! We don’t know anything!”Emily's face darkened in an instant.“How could you not?! You saw this man here hurting everyone, didn’t you?!”“He even conspired with the enemy to poison Amber and the other young talents right in front of our faces!”“We need to take revenge for them!”The guests nodded in unison upon hearing those words.They weren’t idiots; more importantly, they had an extremely good relati
“Another thing: I’ll give you one day to bring me the antidote of the Life Elixir.”“If I still don’t see the antidote by then, I’ll make sure that you burn!”“Of course, you don’t have to believe me. You can try resisting, if you like.”“But if you do, you won’t get anything good out of it…”“Even if you’re from Golden Palace.”Harvey shot them a cold glare before walking out slowly of the door with his arms crossed.Koen gritted his teeth when he saw Harvey acting so arrogantly.“You think you’re impressive, Harvey?!”“You’re making us kneel on Flutwell’s Peak and bring the antidote?!”“You threaten Golden Palace too?!”“Who do you think you are?!”“Do you even have the right to do that?!”“Let me warn you! You’re dead when I report this to my brother Adrian!”“You’ll be the one ripped to shreds—not us!” Emily yelled, her face fierce.“You think Golden Palace is just bluffing?!”“It’s already too late for you to kneel!”“But we don’t have to deal with you right now…”
“First things first,” Harvey said calmly.“I’m the one who reported the incident. Amber and the others were poisoned.”Ansel chuckled bitterly.“Judging from what you told me, the tea they drank must’ve been digested for quite a while already.”“We’ll get Mr. Rudolph and his team to extract their gastric juices for testing.”“But even if we have proof, this is just physical evidence; we’re lacking any testimonies.”“We’ve already sent our men to talk to Koen and Emily.”“However, every single one of them was chased out of Golden Palace!”“At the same time, they’re accusing you of hurting people!”“Because of this, the incident was reported to the highest order; a few elders of the royal court sent word, saying that the country’s reputation is involved and that they want this incident solved as soon as possible.”“If Koen and Emily did poison Amber and the others and conspire with the enemy, they’ll be heavily punished!”“Golden Palace would be dealt with accordingly for cove
“With you here, Sir York, those people have no chance!”“That said, they’re extremely cunning so you should be careful.”After reminding Harvey of the danger, Ansel changed the subject.“Right, Princess Wright knows about the situation as well. She’s furious about it too.”“She was angry about the young talents of Country H being in such a sorry state.”“It’s a shame that she has an extraordinary identity; she isn’t allowed to interfere.”“That was why she asked me to tell you something: if you need any help, as long as it’s within her power, she’ll do everything to lend you a hand.”As the Big Boss’s daughter, Sienna’s identity was quite extraordinary.If she was involved in such a controversial war, not only would she cause a huge uproar, but the Indians would probably find another excuse to blame on.But since Sienna asked someone else to send word, this was enough to show her feelings for her country and its people.“Thank the princess for me. Tell her that I can handle t
At six o’clock in the following morning, at the Flutwell Hospital.A harsh wind was blowing in the air.The tallest floor of the inpatient department was filled with the smell of alcohol and blood.Experts of Golden Palace’s outer circle were all lying on the sickbeds, covered in blood.They weren’t dead, but they were completely crippled.Some had a chance to recover after a few weeks, but most of them were fated to be ordinary people for the rest of their lives.Koen, Emily, and Smoke had gone through an entire night of surgery.One of Smoke’s hands was permanently gone.Koen and Emily’s legs couldn’t function any longer.Simply put, the three were crippled for life.“This is bullsh*t! There’s no way!”After waking up, Emily gritted her teeth in anger before she started bawling her eyes out.She was still a beautiful young woman the day before, but she had turned into a cripple in a blink of an eye.Who would be able to take in such a reality?Koen’s face was completely
“What happened, Koen?”Adrian lit up his cigar and blew out a puff of smoke, his expression horrible.“Who hurt you this badly? He even managed to cripple Smoke!”Naturally, he didn’t know anything aside from the fact that Koen and his fiance were crippled.“It’s Harvey York! The guy who owns Martial Hall!”“He had a strong bodyguard with him! Layne was with him too, that traitor!”“The bodyguard was just too powerful! Even Smoke couldn’t take a single hit against her!”Koen explained the entire situation soon.That said, he never said why Harvey showed up; he only emphasized Harvey’s arrogance and the tricks Harvey pulled.“Harvey? He’s the provincial champion of the Longmen Summit, is he not?”“How dare he go against the Golden Palace, on top of disrespecting the Indians?!”“We have a traitor to deal with as well…”“Interesting! Very interesting!”Dane revealed a cold smile, his eyes filled with murderous intent; he’d chase down every single person who laid even a single
Early in the morning the next day, Harvey arrived at Flutwell’s Peak.Bryce, Fisher, Damian, and a lot of other people were already there.There was a woman in the crowd who made Harvey take a few more glances.She seemed like she was twenty-eight at most; she had a slender body and long hair fluttering in the air. Added with her exquisite makeup, nobody would ever forget such an appearance.She radiated a feminine aura that compelled any man to glue their eyes on her.Anyone would desperately try to either conquer such a woman, or kneel in front of her and call her “queen.”That said, Bryce and the others didn’t look at the woman at all; they were showing horrible expressions, as if they were being greatly pressured.“Vice Master, Elder Steele. What’s the matter?” Harvey asked after taking a sip of the coffee that Rachel brought.“Are you worried about the fight?”“It’s fine. With me here, they can’t do anything .”“I was planning to take them out by myself in the first plac
“More importantly, I’m Flutwell’s provincial champion.”“I never lost against the Indians either.”“At least give me a reason as to why you don’t want me to fight.”Harvey raised his doubts; he didn’t want Longmen to be made fun of without any reason.Rhea squinted at Harvey, and then chuckled coldly.“We all know you’re the provincial champion. We know you’re a strong fighter too. We were looking forward to seeing you in the ring…”“But we just don’t trust you anymore.”“And since we wouldn’t want to use someone we don’t trust, we’d rather give the chance to somebody else.”“Everyone can rest assured if that’s the case.”“You don’t trust me?”Harvey narrowed his eyes.“Why don’t you make it clearer for me instead?”Rhea scoffed.“How do you still not understand?”“I really don’t. If you can actually convince me, I’ll resign on my own volition.”Harvey replied with a cold glare.“But if you can’t, you’ll have to leave immediately.”“You don’t have a say in Longmen’s ma
