Katy’s face was completely swollen after she was slapped around a bunch of times.The Cobb family were gossiping up a storm at the sight.“Katy’s such a troublemaker! She’s already hurt us once by hiding herself in Hong Kong and Las Vegas just because she didn’t want to marry someone!”“And then this happens! Does she want the entire family dead?!”“Senior Padlow’s really angry because of this! If he breaks off every single collaboration of the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance with us, we’ll be losing hundreds and millions of dollars at minimum!”“Can Katy even bear the responsibility at this point?”“We all call her the master of the head house, but this is how she repays us!”The crowd kept shaking their heads.A few elders of the houses bore cold expressions; they were naturally disappointed in Katy’s actions.Katy took a deep breath.“I’ll deal with the supply rights, Eden. Now let them go…”“You’re dealing with it?”“With what? With your damn face or body?”Eden h
“Accept the deal already!”Valery kept whipping Katy; the former’s eyes were filled with resentment and rage.Ever since she was a kid, she harbored extreme jealousy toward Katy, who was always prettier and more outstanding than her.Now that she had a chance to dish out some damage, she would naturally take the opportunity.“Hurry up already!”Katy stumbled back after taking another round of whipping; she almost fell to the ground from the impact.“I’ll never marry Young Master Padlow…” she repeated, her tone steady.She then shot a worried look at the backyard.Since Dean was resting there, it’d be bad if his rest were to be disturbed by these people.“What? Are you worried about the old man? Why don’t you worry about yourself first?”Valery chuckled coldly when she looked at Katy’s eyes.She walked beside Katy and whispered slyly, “Don’t you worry. There’ll be someone taking care of that old man soon enough.”“When he’s dead, we’ll put all the blame on you! Hahahaha!”V
“B*stard!”After seeing his sister getting slapped, Eden screamed in rage and pounced forward angrily.Harvey calmly grabbed Eden’s neck and the latter’s head on the stone table.Bam!There was a loud bang, and the tea set on the table broke into pieces from the frightening impact.Blood covered Eden’s face completely. Harvey pulled Eden aside; Eden’s head was constantly spinning from the attack. Harvey then sent the latter flying with a single kick.The Cobb family froze; a second later, they charged at Harvey with stone chairs.Harvey instantly slapped them aside without even sparing them a glance.He kept slapping every single person Eden brought to the ground.In just under a minute, dozens of people from the Cobb family had fallen to the ground; they were all covering their faces as their bodies twitched in pain.“I don’t care where you come from or what you can do, kid…”“But this is the Cobb family’s territory!”“We’re one of the great families of the South Sea!”
After comforting Katy, Harvey turned to Eden and the others with a calm gaze.He finally knew why Katy wanted him to leave.She understood just how headstrong her family was, and was afraid that Harvey would be put in danger because of her.“Where did this man come from? How dare you hit us like this?!”Valery came to her senses.She stumbled off the ground while covering her injured face.“I’ll kill you!”“I want you two locked behind bars for the rest of your lives! You’ll wish you were dead when that happens!”“You’re Katy’s man, aren’t you?!”Eden crawled up from the ground, his face covered in blood. He gritted his teeth.“You two are a match made in heaven for being so shameless and arrogant!”Eden wanted to fight back, but he could only glare at Harvey in anger. He was terrified of Harvey’s dominant and fierce attitude, so a glare was the only thing he could manage.“Enough! Stop talking to this b*stards and call the cops!”Valery was screaming like a madman, and fl
Harvey glanced at Katy; he didn’t think she’d accept such a horrible condition.Katy sighed.“They used my grandfather’s life against me. I was forced.”Harvey nodded; then, he glared coldly at Eden and the others.He didn’t think the Cobb family would be this shameless.If Harvey boarded the plane and left, Katy would’ve been bossed around however they wanted.Eden’s eyes twitched after seeing the icy look on Harvey’s face.“W-What? She made our family suffer! It’s only natural for her to pay the price!”“Eden and the others were a little out of hand, but it was all Katy’s fault in the first place!” the elderly person with a goatee exclaimed desperately.“The Cobb family isn’t the same as it was before!”“We finally managed to work together with the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance. And then, she came back and ruined everything!”“I even pitied her while she was getting beaten up!”“And then what happened? You showed up out of nowhere before beating up our people!”“H
Half an hour later, Harvey and the others went to the Cobb family’s meeting hall inside the villa.The entire place was built around mountains and rivers; the entire building had a vintage feel to it.Different types of culture were perfectly blended into one; the builders’ ambition could clearly be seen through the immaculate designs.It was a shame the Cobb family was on the verge of falling apart.The meeting hall was about three thousand and two hundred feet wide. An expensive chair was set right in the middle of the hall.Rows of wooden chairs were placed on both sides; it was an extremely lavish sight.Harvey and the others stood still as footsteps could be heard from the back.Six people showed up from behind the hall. After a while, an old lady with white hair stepped out.She was a little small; her back was slightly arched, and she had a cane in her hand. She seemed quite scrawny, but her gaze was very sharp.She had a cold look on her face as she glared at Harvey; h
“This will negatively affect our core interests. My brother and I are terribly anxious about it!”“That was why we went to Katy’s home, hoping she’d give us a proper explanation or apologize to the Blackburn City Martial Arts Alliance…”“But throughout the entire process, we were a little reckless as we couldn’t control our emotions properly while we were teaching Katy a lesson.”“That said, we did everything for the sake of the entire family!”“And then what happened?! Her savage partner beat us all up just because he can fight!”“More importantly, he even slapped our elders down without hesitation! He’s completely disrespecting us!”The two elders with swollen faces stood up to show everyone what Harvey had done.Katy stepped up after hearing those words.“Things didn’t happen this way, Grandma Cobb…”“You b*stard!”Grandma Cobb didn’t even give Katy a chance to explain herself and swung her cane at Katy’s leg.“It’s been so many years, yet you still don’t care one bit abo
“As for the rules…”“No matter how powerful your family actually is, you can’t just outrule the law now, can you?”Harvey was giving Grandma Cobb no respect whatsoever.“I’m only telling you this once…”“I was the one who hit Gael. I was the one who broke his arms as well.”“Katy had nothing to do with anything.”“Eden took the opportunity to threaten a marriage between Katy and Gael. He wanted to rise within the family so he could kick Katy out!”Harvey then glared at Eden.“You can’t tell me you didn’t do everything for this exact reason.”Eden’s face darkened instantly.“What do you mean by that?!”“Do you think Grandma Cobb would believe such a lie from a man like you?”“I did everything for the sake of the Cobb family!”He screamed in righteous fury, desperately trying to hide his true intentions.“I have no ulterior motive!”“If I did, I'd be struck by lightning!”Eden started to panic. He did all this to Katy for two reasons.Number one: Katy’s presence threaten
After Harvey managed to deduce Dan's aim and plan, he then started to think about saving Tina. It was not because Tina was important, but it was simply because after saving her, it would immediately destroy Dan and Coco's perfect plan and disgust them.Harvey believed that if he kept on destroying Dan's plans, no matter how tough he was, he would eventually break down. That was why Harvey had already asked Alexei to send people to keep an eye on Tina, resulting in that scene just now.Most importantly, only after Tina managed to get her life back after suffering a near-death experience would she be willing to fully cooperate with her interrogation.Harvey opened the door and walked over to Tina.Tina was already lying on the ground, face down. The blood she lost made her shudder; even her breathing was becoming so weak that people could hardly hear her. Harvey narrowed his eyes and gave her a good look before saying to Alexei, "Get the first aid kit from the car and then call an am
"Oh, Tina. If the princess wants you dead, no one will spare you. Isn't it better to just die peacefully?" sighed Willy as he looked at Tina in her terrible state. Then, he pulled out his silver pistol and aimed at Tina's forehead from afar inside his Land Cruiser. He was going to pull the trigger.Boom!At the critical moment, a Range Rover suddenly appeared from the side and rammed into the Land Cruiser. The Land Cruiser's chassis shook and almost flipped over.Willy, who was aiming at Tina with his pistol, instantly lost his aim.Very quickly, they crawled out from their Land Cruiser. While they were still holding on to their weapons, they had already lost their prideful demeanor. Willy, especially. As an heir in Grand City, he had never received this level of injury before. At that moment, his body shuddered in anger."Which fool did this to me?! I will… Crap!" Before Willy could even finish cursing, he already saw Alexei give him a smile from the driver's seat in his Range
Unfortunately, while the voice messages were sent out, the opposite side refused to accept them. Tina could only scream when she looked at the red exclamation marks. The pursuers in the cars behind her had also opened their cars' sunroofs and taken out their crossbows. When the bolts they launched hit the road, they immediately created holes in the road from the explosions.Thunderblasts!They were the Martial Arts Weapons, Thunderblasts!When Tina saw what they were using, Tina knew that Coco had given them strict orders. They would not stop until they killed her. If she wanted to survive, she had to find someone else to help her.When that thought crossed her mind, Tina immediately turned into a corner on the highway, heading straight toward the Foster Residence's direction. Willy's expression also turned cold when he saw Tina's car change direction as he sat in a Land Cruiser behind her.As one of Dan's right-hand men, he would definitely do his best despite Coco only asking hi
Tina was no fool. The moment she saw the sleeping drugs, she saw through everything. What Coco's secretary asked her to write was not some complaints but her farewell note. With that note and her death, it would be enough to drag Harvey and Vaida into the mud.Tina knew very clearly about this because she had done something similar, treating others as pawns. However, she would never willingly become someone else's pawn, especially when she had to sacrifice her life for someone else's hand on this game board.When she was writing the complaint halfway, Tina made an excuse about her needing to go to the bathroom to compose herself. But at the window, she already saw some people outside planting some evidence while removing their traces.She shuddered. She could sense the cold hand of Death around her throat. She immediately escaped through the window and immediately ran to her own car, leaving without looking back.However, Coco's secretary made his preparations as well. The moment T
"Let's not talk about whether they fail or succeed," said Harvey with a sigh. "From what happened last night, Dan was going to fight me until the end. Next, he was going to manipulate another group to try and kill me again. Unless I leave Grand City, give up on the Three Halls, and my identity as the representative of Country H Martial Arts Alliance, all this is never going to stop…"Vaida gave Harvey a thought and asked, "Then, what are you going to do next? If you want to leave, I can send you away."Harvey shook his head. "I haven't completed my objective for coming to Grand City yet. No need to rush. Not to mention, Dan is quite petty, which means that he isn't suitable to become the mayor of Grand City. This city is very important to Country H. While I'm not interested in becoming mayor, I wish the person who becomes the mayor is someone who can serve the country and its people."Hearing Harvey's words, there was a strange glint in Viada's eyes before she said with a smile, "If
The moment the name appeared in Sverker's mind, he opened his mouth with a hoarse voice. "You're… you're the Ministry of Defense's… living legend… The Chief Instructor?!"When Ghostface heard that name, he shuddered with an expression of total disbelief.Impossible!How was it possible!He was the scariest nightmare for the Island Nation and even Sky Plane itself!Harvey sighed and no longer looked at Sverker. Instead, he turned to look at Ghostface and narrowed his eyes. He smiled and said, "Ghostface, let me ask you a question. What is one plus one equal to?"Ghostface instinctively replied, "Two…'"Ha…" Harvey let out a long sigh with a face of regret. "You and Sverker are the same. Both of you have the same problem. You know too much…"In the next moment, the longsword in his hand instantly shattered into fragments and shot in two different directions. A simple action managed to clear the location of any murderous intentions as Ghostface and Sverker both held their throat a
"It's almost my turn, right?" After Harvey parried Sverker's attack easily, Harvey made his move and jumped into the air. The longsword in his hand swung down.The most powerful martial arts in this world were the ones that were the fastest.This attack was not complex at all, but just one look was enough to strike fear into one's heart. Especially Ghostface. When he saw Harvey's attack, there was an indescribable fear within him. He had a feeling that, if Harvey wanted, he could easily kill him on the spot.And then, he also understood that when Harvey was fighting him, he probably did not even use 70% of his full power."Will of the Blade!" When Harvey saw the attack, Sverker's expression also turned into shock. He had practiced the use of a sword for many years, but he never awakened to the Will of the Blade. He did not expect that Harvey would have awakened to it despite his young age!Whoosh!Sverker did not dare to face such a simple but terrifying attack head-on. All he co
Sverker smiled at Harvey, as if he had sensed Harvey staring at him. Then, he turned to look at Ghostface once more. "If you want me to do something about this, there won't be any problems. But remember. After this, I will lead all the operations in Grand City. The Origin Ninjas will be my subordinates."Ghostface's expression darkened a little, but he promptly replied, "That's fine. I agree on everyone's behalf.""Good. Remember your promise."After that, Sverker took another step forward. He immediately landed and stood on the hilt of one of the longswords impaled into the ground. His hands were behind him, looking like a peerless grandmaster.He proudly looked at Harvey before chuckling and asked, "You're the representative of the Country H Martial Arts Alliance, Harvey, am I correct? I heard you're the most powerful man in the alliance. But now that I get to see you in person, you look quite ordinary. Even if you're strong, you probably don't have the brain power since you walk
After giving it a few more looks, Harvey ignored the surroundings, and his gaze fell on Ghostface's figure ahead.When Ghostface had reached about a few hundred feet into the forest, he suddenly raised his hand, and a small repeating crossbow appeared in his hand. He did not even turn around and immediately pulled the trigger at where Harvey would be.Whoosh!Harvey's expression was calm. When he saw the bolts flying toward him, he simply stomped his foot on the ground. The rocks fired upward and instantly deflected all the bolts.Ghostface's expression changed once more when his attack was deflected, and he quickly retreated. Ghostface was escaping increasingly faster because it was obvious that he knew he would die a terrible death if he ended up in Harvey's hands.Harvey narrowed his eyes as he followed Ghostface without rushing. That was because Ghostface's actions were too intentional, as if he was worried that Harvey would not follow him at all. That was why, despite Harvey
