Bam!The person in a black shirt slammed to the ground before blood spurted out of his mouth. It was an extremely miserable sight.Smoke and dust completely filled the entire place. The men surrounding the car were showing horrible looks. All of them were coughing up a storm while they kept stepping back.The man on the ground finally came to his senses, but he just could not muster the strength to stand back up.“You… You b*stard…” he said while vengefully glaring at Harvey.He was the vice head of the Skeleton Gang. His name would be able to stop children from crying in the middle of the night.More importantly, he was also a King of Arms. He was an immensely powerful man.That said, he was on the verge of death after being slammed to the ground.He did not die on the spot, but he was completely incapacitated. He was so furious to the point where tears were beading from his eyes.Harvey felt speechless when he saw the sight.‘It’s not like I meant to do it…‘I just used th
“Are you really that useless?Harvey York showed a confused expression while staring at the man on the ground.‘Judging from the attitude, he’s probably a prominent figure of the Skeleton Gang…‘And then what happened?‘He’s out for the count after I kick him a few times.‘Isn’t this the Skeleton Gang Kellan Ruiz warned me about?‘Maybe he’s just trying to scare me off…’Before Harvey could even say anything, a few men screamed in rage before they pounced forward while gritting their teeth.They were carrying daggers, firearms, and crossbows with murderous intent exuding from their bodies!“Harvey! Look out!” Kairi Patel exclaimed after coming out from the back of the car.She was about to pull the trigger on one of the charging men…But she ran out of bullets.“Vice Head!”After seeing the man who passed out on the ground, the others were boiling with anger.“You b*stard! How dare you do this to the vice head?!”“We’ll kill you!”A man with a skull tattoo on his face g
Slap slap slap!While the man was sent flying, Harvey York rushed right into the crowd of men.The men immediately trembled before instinctively taking a few steps back…But Harvey was faster. His palm immediately made contact with every single one of their faces.His movements were as quick as lightning.While Kairi Patel and the elderly man were completely stunned by the sight, Harvey fiercely swung his palm around without hesitation.Men in black shirts were flying all over the place before the last one collapsed.He quickly groveled on the ground without pause.“I was wrong! Please! Spare me!”He had a chance to pull the trigger but could not muster the strength to do it.Harvey wasted no time sending this person flying with a kick. Nobody knew whether he was alive or not when he slammed onto the ground again.“We have rules in the underworld, friend. We don’t kill people who surrender.”The man in a grey robe frowned after seeing the sight.The young people behind him
“Oh? Is that so?“So, you’re the kind of man who seeks gratitude?Kairi Patel chuckled before lifting Harvey York’s chin with a finger.“How about this? I can give you my body for the rest of my life.”Harvey’s face turned bright red before letting out a cough.“That’s a pretty unconventional offer!“Normally, you should be doing my bidding for the rest of my life instead!”Kairi let out a scoff.“That’s for people who aren’t as good-looking. Of course, I’d have to give my body to someone as handsome as you.”Harvey smiled sheepishly.“I’ll have to respectfully decline your offer.“I’m just doing my duty, after all.”Kairi frowned after hearing Harvey’s words.“Are you calling me ugly?” Harvey chuckled.“Maybe I’m just a man with some decency!”Kairi was so angry that she almost broke a tooth gritting her teeth.‘People are lining up straight to Wolsing just to pursue me!‘And yet this b*stard won’t even choose me?!’Harvey let out another cough after seeing Kairi’s
“Your savior?”Ari Foster was confused. She could not understand what Kairi Patel meant.Kairi pointed at Harvey York.“There! That’s him! Harvey!“He was the one who saved me on the plane too.“That means he already saved me twice already.“Twice?Ari showed an odd expression as she glanced at Harvey.“Him?“He’s your savior?”Kairi merely smiled.“That’s right! I was planning to give him my body as well!“Though, it’s a shame that he didn’t want me…”Ari’s expression turned glacial before she glared at Harvey.“Go! Take this man down!“Kill him if he even tries to resist!”Kairi’s expression changed.“What is the meaning of this?”Ari let out a cold chuckle.“A young man like him actually managed to take out a King of Arms from one of the sacred martial arts training grounds…“He must be one of them!“Go!”Ari’s subordinates pulled out their firearms with cold glares, prepared to pull the trigger if Harvey even attempted anything.Harvey casually put away his p
Ari Foster showed a cold smirk when she squinted at Harvey York.The man furiously screamed at Harvey.“How dare you do this to me?! Do you have a death wish or something?!”Bam!Harvey instantly kicked the man and sent him flying before slamming onto the ground unconscious.Harvey’s decisiveness completely shocked the entire crowd.After all, he was also highly skillful.“Who the Hell are you, you b*stard?!” Ari exclaimed.Harvey could not be bothered to give any sort of reply. He immediately pointed his firearm in another direction before pulling the trigger.Bang!Sounds of overlapping gunshots and screams were heard. All the people surrounding Harvey were lying on the ground while holding their legs the next moment.Gaspian Patel and the others quickly changed their expressions when they saw the sight.Naturally, they did not expect Harvey would even do this.Ari was completely enraged after seeing the sight.“How dare you lay your hands on one of my men?! Do you have
After saving Kairi Patel, Harvey York left the scene for her to clean up.He believed that she would handle everything properly, judging from her abilities.Then, he called Thomas Burton for him to drive them both to a place to eat.Harvey wanted to go to a roadside stall, but Thomas insisted on treating him to a good meal. The two then went to the Golden Sands Hotel.Thomas was extremely quiet while he was on the road. He did not say a single word after seeing the bloodshed in front of him just now. He did not ask Harvey about the details, as if nothing had happened.Harvey felt impressed by Thomas’ attitude. Safe to say that he was a man who would achieve great things but was only hindered by luck for the moment.Soon after, the car was parked in front of the Golden Sands Hotel. Thomas quickly pulled out a bank card and gave it to Harvey when he remembered something.“Here’s 7.3 million dollars, Sir York. This is all I have for now.“Give this to Mandy Zimmer. Tell her that t
After hearing Thomas Burton’s sigh, Harvey York could clearly feel the weariness of a man.Harvey frowned.“Who’s been causing you trouble?“Even your past competitors wouldn’t do something like this to waste their own energy, right?”Thomas let out a bitter chuckle.“One of them was my good friend, and the other was the woman I loved…“Not only did they get together after my downfall, but they also kept trampling all over me!“Then, I found out that my friend had been siphoning money from me for the past few years…“That woman had been colluding with him too…“I’m a fool. I didn’t even realize that I was already betrayed.“They won’t let me rise again, no matter what.“They know that I’ll crush them the moment I do.“That’s why I quit doing business. I have a car with me here. Maybe I’ll try chauffeuring…“Those people will be at ease and I’ll be relieved as well.“When I’m done dealing with my matters, I’ll finally retire and return to my hometown.”Thomas seemed quite
Harvey smiled. "Aren't you afraid that it'll cause discord once your words reach back to Grand City if you praise me this much? I'm going to Grand City eventually."Geoffrey's eyes slightly narrowed when he heard it, and then he smiled. "It makes sense if you're going to the city. Since you're the representative of the Martial Arts Alliance, which makes you the mayor of Grand City, it's logical if you want to go there. But there's something you need to be mindful of. The Seven Families publicly acknowledged Dan as the scion of Grand City, and everyone thought he would become the representative."If you go to Grand City, everyone will see you as trying to usurp power whether you want it or not. When that happens, the two of you will never have peace until one of you is dead…""Dead?" Harvey smirked. "What makes him think he has the right to call himself Grand City's scion? If he wants to become the owner of Grand City, he has to reclaim his status and become a representative and not
Meanwhile, Sol moved a chair over for Harvey and made a cup of tea for him. Harvey drank the flower tea that had just been freshly brewed. After a drink, he said with a smile, "Thank you, Mr. Geoffrey.""You saved me, so it's nothing strange for me to show you some appreciation," replied Geoffrey with a smile as he waved his hand. Then, Sol and Lune closed and covered all the windows and doors leading to the studies. Later, he said, "Harvey, I've prepared everything I need to. It's all in your hands now."In the next few days, he had already written down his own comprehension of his martial arts and those that he believed needed to be recorded, then passed them to Sol and Lune for safekeeping. Geoffrey was prepared for the consequences of his treatment."Alright. Since you have made the decision, then I won't delay this any further. But I suggest that we should make a video recording. That way, you will not only know what changes occur to your body but also what I did." Harvey sugge
"You heard it too, didn't you? I gave Victoria a call," Harvey said openly. "Victoria is the eldest princess of the Empire. She owed me one, so I asked her a favor. To her, something like this is easily within her powers."Yvonne was shocked. "You're actually familiar with the Empire's eldest princess?"Harvey smiled. "It's all in the past. Not to mention that this time, it involves the lives of many of your relatives. It's more convenient if the Empire is the one that makes the move."Yvonne gave it a thought and mumbled, "Sir, you probably need to repay her for a favor this huge, right? If you need anything, just let me know, and I'll have the Xaviers prepare them.""Well… There's no need to," Harvey said as he glanced at his phone screen with a message written in the Empire's script. "I guess this is all over once I find some time to treat her to a meal."When she heard it, Yvonne's expression instantly turned strange. But she was a smart woman; she knew there were things she s
"That's because the Empire produces most of the firearms we Second Caste used. Once they stop their services, we will lose access to those firearms in the short term. The First Case will use this chance to retaliate. If we ever reach that stage, the Second Caste is doomed. That's why we have no choice but to execute the Empire's orders."That's not the worst part. Unless we can completely go without the weapons produced by the Empire from within our army, otherwise… Harvey basically owns the Second Caste from now on. Crossing him is suicidal. In our current condition, the Second Caste doesn't have the resources to change the firearms from within our army. That's why, whether we like it or not, he basically owns us," said Bart, heaving a sigh. His expression darkened."Darn it… I told them I would rather cross the people from Country A than the people from Country H. Why didn't they believe me? They only regretted it after they had been thoroughly humiliated."When Zoe heard it, she
"Let's go!" Bart's expression darkened when he saw things had reached this stage. With a wave of his hand, he was going to leave with his underlings. He was filled with dissatisfaction.Today was supposed to be his day of glory. He was supposed to crush the Xaviers right under his boots. He was even prepared to have some fun with the women from the Xaviers. But he never expected one call from Harvey to be enough to turn his dreams into nothing. He was extremely dissatisfied.Zoe shuddered and was also about to leave. She wished Harvey could forgive her existence at this moment."Did I tell you that you can leave?" Harvey glanced at the group as they reached the entrance. "Don't forget, all of you have to give me an explanation that I'm happy with."Then, Harvey glanced at Zoe and said, "And you, Maiden. Don't forget your words so soon?"Zoe's expression darkened as she shuddered.Meanwhile, Bart immediately bent the knee on the floor with a loud thud. Then, he said in a bitter vo
Bart was completely stunned. "Sir, that's not what you said earlier! You gave explicit orders that…""What orders?" The voice coming from the other side was grim. "Do you understand what I'm telling you? Do as I tell you right now. Other than letting them know, I don't care whether you must cry or beg; you must gain the Xaviers' forgiveness. "Remember. If you fail, I'll kill all your family! This is not just my personal order but the collective will of the entire Second Caste. You must gain their forgiveness even if you were to sacrifice your own life!"After Mr. Garcia roared back at Bart, he angrily hung up. Obviously, there was pent-up anger in him, making him very furious and agitated. Unfortunately, it seemed that he could not resist it. That was why, even if he did not want to, all he could do was follow Mr. Garcia's orders.What happened?Bart, Zoe, and the others could not react as their eyes were fixed on the phone on the table. Their expressions were completely frozen.
"Tsk. Didn't you say you just gave a call to the Empire? That's our suzerain! If there's really someone on top of the pyramid speaking on your behalf, we all had to obey!" Bart said, his words were spiteful once more."Maybe you should give her a call again? Tell her that the Second Caste is very scared, waiting for her to come and punish us. Or maybe, your phone is out of credit? Do you need more money to pay for your credits?" Bart then pulled out a 20-dollar bill and threw it at Harvey. What Bart just did made all the people from Country I laugh even more arrogantly.Zoe could not be bothered to waste her time anymore. Instead, she extended her foot before Harvey, signaling Harvey to kneel and lick the sole of her heel quickly. Otherwise, someone from the Xaviers would have to die again if time was up.Buzz…As the mockery climaxed, Bart's phone started to vibrate. Everyone instantly looked at him. Bart was also stunned and glanced at the screen of his phone. Then, he gave Harve
"What? Don't tell me the Victoria you called just now was actually Princess Victoria from the Empire? I suppose you must have gotten what you wanted if you could talk to her directly. I wonder what kind of orders she gave us? Did she tell us to be on our knees right now or tomorrow?" A smirk appeared on Zoe's face the moment Harvey hung up. She looked at Harvey as if she was looking at a clown running a circus."Oh, right, I need to remind you. In one hour, we will kill another member of the Xavier family. If she only contacts us after a long time, then the Xaviers will all die," said Zoe as she folded her arms in front of her chest and slowly approached Harvey. Then, she leaned closer to Harvey and said, "And here I'm looking forward to falling on my knees and calling you Daddy. So please, you better give me this chance."At this time, Zoe acted so seductively. If it were not because everyone here knew that Zoe and Harvey were enemies, some might even think that Harvey and Zoe might
"Seems like you didn't change at all, Maiden. You still wouldn't give up until your final moments," Harvey stepped forward and glanced at Zoe. She might look stern on the outside, but she was already shaken inside."You know full well that if I could give you the money all this time, it would mean that I have the evidence. Maybe the Second Caste didn't care about the betrayal and continued to use you because you have some value. But the moment I show all this evidence on the internet, a sinner like you will make everyone remember everything."Perhaps the First Caste, who is at a disadvantage right now, could use this as an initiative and retaliate. That's why if I were you, I would immediately turn tail and leave, then think of a way to convince the Second Caste to stop instead of wasting your breath here."Zoe smiled coldly. "You can stop threatening me now, Harvey. I confessed everything to my higher-ups a long time ago. So what if you can reveal all the evidence you have? It mean
