“Aaah!”“No!”The security guards screamed in fear.They could already see the image of a beautiful young woman turning into ground meat.Swoosh!Harvey York’s body moved instantaneously!He quickly stomped on the ground before he launched himself forward like an arrow!An afterimage could almost be seen. It looked like a special effect that could only be seen in movies!Right when Ellen Moreno was about to close her eyes and accept her fate, a firm grip immediately held her still, keeping her on the ground.Everything happened so fast. The security guards’ jaws immediately dropped. They could not even utter a single word because of all the shock they had to take in.Ellen instantly trembled after experiencing the life-and-death situation. She was wide awake at that point.She looked behind her with a horrified expression before turning back toward Harvey.“Thank you, Harvey!”She was not stupid. She knew she would be dead meat if not for Harvey’s help.Harvey slowly lift
In Harvey York’s mind, he wanted to buy off the store at market price to prevent any other trouble from brewing.But Ellen Moreno kept saying that her things were Harvey’s to own and that she wanted to repay him for saving her life.Along with the fact that she was Katy Cobb’s friend and they were going against the Cobb family, it was only natural for her to take action.This was when Harvey discovered that Eden Cobb was actually Ellen’s ex.While Harvey was surprised by the small world he was living in, he sat back while everything was taking its course.The basic outline of the store was quickly built. As long as the production of the medicine could keep up, the store would be up and running in no time.The Cobb family’s business was on the other side of the street. From the looks of it, it seemed like the store was about to celebrate its anniversary.If the renovation of Ellen’s store were quick enough, Katy’s business would be able to catch up to that.Word spread as soon a
“I heard that Harvey York got bailed out of the police station because of her as well.“She must be doing all this to take revenge against me.”Eden Cobb then showed a few pictures of his friend group on his phone.He pointed at the picture Ellen Moreno took intentionally to prove that he was right.“I see.Grandma Cobb felt slightly relieved.“It’s not that I like to pester you about this, Eden…“That brat is just an illegitimate child, but she’s still from the Moreno family!“Once she’s on Harvey’s side, we’ll be in a lot of trouble if they help that ungrateful granddaughter of mine go against us!“We can’t let our guard down!“If Ellen’s on their side, we’ll have to deal with another mess if their store gets popular!“The simplest way to do it is to deal with them before they become stronger!”Grandma Cobb showed an icy cold expression.Eden thought about the situation.“Are you saying…”Grandma Cobb squinted at Eden.“I know that b*stard has no right to be with you,
“Thank you for this, Ellen.Harvey York handed cigarettes to the workers before smiling at Ellen Moreno, who was excitedly taking charge as the temporary supervisor, wearing a small vest.“The store wouldn’t be up so quickly without you, Ellen,” said Harvey while handing a bottle of soda.“At least you know that. Should you treat me to a few meals then?Ellen raised her head before looking at the flagship store.“If you make me happy, I’ll get a few billboards just for you! The store will definitely blow up soon enough!”Harvey let out a chuckle.“Of course, I’d have to treat you to a meal.“That said, I can handle advertising on my own!”Harvey basically understood Ellen’s grudge against Eden.It was natural for a young master from the Cobb family and a lady from the Moreno family to be together.Harvey had no comments about Eden’s character, but it was Ellen’s freedom to choose who her man was.Brrr brrr brrr!Ellen’s phone suddenly rang.After picking up the phone for
After taking a closer look, Harvey York saw Noemi Moreno standing in the middle of those fashionable people.She was wearing an exquisite dress that showed off her pale and slender legs. It was an extremely eye-catching sight, to say the least.Along with the distinct and colorful fashionable people gathered together like ripe peaches…The men could not help but glue their eyes to the sight.It was a shame nobody dared to step up.After all, the second lady of the Moreno family was quite a prominent figure.Ordinary men would not be able to get ahold of her. Even some of the princes and young masters would be daunted by the sight.The woman was just like a rose…She seemed extremely attractive, but her thorns would start showing if anyone got a little too close to her.Without having absolute confidence, who would even dare do something like that?“Mother!”Ellen Moreno hopped her way toward her.“Hello, everyone,” she greeted respectfully.“You’re here.”Noemi pointed at
Ellen Moreno was a little worried. She knew that her mother despised people like Harvey York…But she was the one who dragged him here in the first place.It was extremely disrespectful of Noemi Moreno to leave Harvey like this.That said, Ellen had no way to speak up on an occasion like this.After ten minutes or so, the conversation finally ended.Noemi showed a faint smile when she glanced at Harvey. After looking at the Cartier Balloon Bleu watch on her wrist, she squinted at Harvey with a playful look.A few others glanced at him with disdainful and arrogant gazes as well.“I managed to figure out my body’s problem because of you last time.“I’ll properly thank you for that,” thanked Noemi calmly.She was acting as if her lungs failing was not that big of a problem in the first place.This was only natural. With her family’s status, it would not be hard for her to be properly treated as long as she did not stress herself.She thought that Harvey only got lucky. She also
After looking at Noemi Moreno’s faint smile, the card with a hint of fragrance, and the people around showing playful expressions…Harvey York merely chuckled.He was only brought here to be broken up with Ellen Moreno.That said, he had no intention of being together with her.The two only became friends out of pure coincidence.He only came here to thank Ellen for everything she had done for the past few days.Harvey was planning to thank Noemi in person. He was just about to tell Ray Hart to treat her nicely as well…But after seeing such a horrible attitude, he could not help but frown.In reality, Harvey did not mind Noemi’s words at all. After all, he and Ellen were not couples in the first place. All he needed to do was to explain the entire situation.That said, he was in a bad mood when she saw Noemi’s expression, as if she was trying to tell off some kept man.Right when he turned around, Ellen immediately got angry!She stood up and tenderly held Harvey’s hand.“
“You need to listen, Ellen!”“Even if you do your best to pull someone like this into our circle…”“He’s still completely out of place! The smell of medicine on him will only make everyone stay away!”“Your mother, along with the entire family, will become the South Sea’s biggest joke because of your recklessness!”“Even if you don’t care about your family, at least think of your mother!”“She already has a hard time within the family. You’re making it harder for her if you do something like this, aren’t you?”After seeing Ellen Moreno’s helpless look, a third person jumped in before coldly glaring at Harvey York.“I’m sure you know yourself enough, kid.“We can pay you some respect and support your business. We’ll buy fifteen thousand dollars worth of your goods for our dogs to use…“But don’t even think you can be in our league just by selling some medicine!“There are some things that you own since birth!“And there are things you can never have your entire life!“Do you
As the gigantic fireball flew straight toward Harvey, he could feel that even the humidity in the air had completely evaporated. The scent of scorching heat permeated the air. Harvey retreated again and again. With every step he took, he would kick a few pieces of rocks right at the fireball, trying to make the fireball collapse on itself.Thud! Thud! Thud!The ball of fire that was rolling toward Harvey exploded before it could get close to him in the end due to the surging of the air currents. However, all the surrounding plant life had been scorched into dust by the powerful heatwave, as if someone had detonated an explosion in the scene.Harvey's eyes narrowed when he saw what had happened. This technique had already surpassed what one would normally call martial arts. It was bordering close to fantasy. It was the first time Harvey saw a killing technique like this.And so, Harvey retreated once more and maintained a safe distance between himself and Ghostface before looking cu
Clang!The dagger instantly shattered into pieces and shot out in all directions. Some even sliced century-old trees in half. After shattering the dagger, Harvey's fist did not stop. It continued to crash forward inevitably, surrounded with aura.Ghostface's expression immediately changed, and a ghost mask instantly appeared on his face, his aura once again strengthening.Crack!But before his aura could reach his height, a crack appeared on the ghost mask, which was cut into two. With Harvey suppressing Ghostface's aura, his ace in the hole was completely useless and meaningless."Impossible…" Ghostface muttered as he could feel the cold sweat on his skin and the hairs on his arm standing up. He continuously hurled all kinds of weapons with his hands. Daggers and darts were thrown repeatedly, and his figure kept retreating backward, wanting to stop the attack with everything at his disposal.Clang!The sounds of metal being shattered rang again. His resistance was futile. In th
Whoosh!As one of the most outstanding elites among the Origin Ninjas, Ghostface had always been extremely decisive in his actions. Before he had even finished speaking with Harvey, a dagger had already appeared in his hand. His figure flickered, and the dagger went straight for Harvey.Harvey whipped his right hand out, as if he was already expecting Ghostface would ambush him, and a branch from a tree that he took parried Ghostface's dagger.Clang!As their weapons clashed with each other, a loud clang rang. Harvey's figure wavered a little bit while Ghostface's figure was flung into the air, and he landed where he started.Ghostface was shocked that Harvey could deflect his ambush with just a tree branch. With a cold smile on his face, the aura around him became even more intense. While Harvey was quite powerful, he himself was not that weak either. Those who had reached this stage had an indomitable fighting spirit.Harvey was also quite surprised when he saw Ghostface's batt
This moment caused Djinn's expression to twist in shock as he instinctively took half a step backward. The dread on his face was obvious. Who could expect that the attack he put all his might… An attack that was so terrifying did nothing at all.Before Djinn could regain his footing, the Swarm Queen's figure moved again, and the blade in her hand slashed.Djinn's figure paused as his footsteps froze, and fear spread in his eyes. That was because the Swarm Queen's blue blade had already pierced into his chest.Spurt!Fresh blood spurt out from his wound. However, the blood was not scarlet red, but a brilliant blue…"You…" Djinn's expression twisted when he saw what happened. He was not suffering… He could not even feel the pain. Then, his body slowly began to sway before crumpling on the ground. His life was slowly being drained away.Djinn seemed to remember something.He blew his final breath and said, "You… You're Belladonna Cult's Guardian… The cult's most powerful ace…"-
In Djinn's understanding, Neve was just your usual run-of-the-mill blue blood in Grand City. How did she know so much? How could she learn that they were coming and made preparations for them?Neve coldly answered, "Of course, I can't foretell what will happen. But what if someone wanted to do me a favor and told me to pay more attention? What do you think of the possibility of this person being the same person as the one who told you to come here?""Told me to come here?" Djinn's expression changed. "That damn fool Da…"Then, he suddenly realized what was happening. "You tricked me, woman?!""Tricked you?" Neve spoke with a smile. "I'm not tricking you. But, the person behind me has already foreseen everything.""The person behind you?" Djinn's eyes twitched again. "Just who is this person behind you? Is it her?""No. Sis Vaida is here just to protect me. Oh, right. Her name is the Swarm Queen."When hearing this name, Djinn's eyes grew wide. As one of the elites of Sky Plane,
To the Islanders, whether it was killed or be killed, it did not matter much. During the Warring States, their entire civilization almost became extinct.This was nothing at all.However, all the elites who accompanied Djinn were elites from Sky Plane. To think that they died terribly… How could it not make him fearful? Djinn thought that while it would not be a walk in the park to complete this mission, he still needed to put in some effort.But he never expected that all the people he took with him had all crumpled on the ground, dead. They were Kings of Arms elites. Whether it was the swordsmen from the Origin Sword Style or the ninjas from the Origin Ninjustu, they were all the backbone of their respective schools. Each one of them required a lot of time and effort to train.He did not expect them to all die in such a terrifying manner. All he had left to say was this woman in white was simply too frightening.But when faced with his question, the woman in white did not say an
This changed Djinn's expression. Then, he finally saw the name of the drama. There was only one word shown. Ambush.The moment Djinn saw that word, his expression turned extremely dark."Something's wrong! Hear my orders, everyone! Take your drugs and attack with full force! Kill Neve Foster!" Djinn was also someone quite decisive. Once he noticed something was amiss with the current situation, he did not retreat and even quickly gave his orders.At this point, they were no longer in a position to retreat. As he made his orders, all the ninjas and swordsmen pulled out the longsword by their waists. All of them were ready to pounce at their target.But no matter how strong they were, they could not stop themselves from making war cries, as if they did not care about their own lives. However, the expected battle to the deaths did not occur at all. When the Island Nation elites cried out, the white figure in the living room reappeared in a flash.At this time, the Island Nation elite
Shortly, a ninja in black garb appeared not far away in front of them. He was the scout sent to investigate ahead. The scout's figure appeared right before Djinn. He bowed and said, "Lord Djinn."Djinn coldly asked, "How's the situation ahead?"The scout whispered, "I've confirmed that Geoffrey has joined the Grand City's Seven Families Joint Meeting. Three-fourths of the Universal Sect's elites had gone to the meeting. I have also confirmed that the place Neve stayed in, a courtyard at the back, isn't that strictly guarded. Our people have already hacked the security cameras in our route. We can immediately enter."Then, the scout quickly took out his tablet and showed Djinn some videos and pictures. Djinn looked at them and could not help but exclaim, "Good. Very good. Then let's do this together. Everyone, remember that we must finish this as quickly as possible. Our objective is to kill Neve and ignore everyone else. Understand?"Djinn's tone was low and serious."Yes!" All th
"That should work," said Coco after considering it. "I never liked Neve for the longest time. If we can pin her death on Vaida and Harvey, there's no harm to me at all. But we can't use anyone from Parkerville, so I'll need to make some arrangements…""No need for that," Dan said. "No matter how weak the Fosters are, they're still one of the Seven Families of Grand City. No one can touch them if one doesn't give them their all. It's best to get Sverker or Ghostface to kill her. I've been sealing all the entrances so far and not letting the people from Sky Plane enter. I believe they're very willing to cooperate if I simply ask for a favor."Dan gave it a deep thought after a while. Then, he smiled and said, "Right, I'll personally inform Clarion about this. Telling him that his beloved is in danger. I wonder, will it be Harvey's fault again if Clarion went to save her without making any preparations and ended up dying?"Coco's expression was merciless when she heard Dan's plans, thi
