Leona seemed like she was starting to recover, but her body suddenly trembled.She looked a little cold, but she didn’t say a word about it.Castiel was pleased with the results. He quickly puffed up his chest, as if he was about to do something grand.“Alright! Here goes my final move!”“This is the most important part of my teachings!”“Get out of here already, whoever you are! Don’t look at my secrets!”“This belongs to Aeon Hall only!”“It’ll be bad if someone with ulterior motives managed to learn this!”He crossed his arms with a prideful look.It was as if he wouldn’t save Leona unless Harvey left immediately.“Aeon Hall?”Harvey chuckled coldly after hearing those words.“Did Rodney tell you that?”“How dare you call my grandfather by his name, you b*stard?!”“Besides, what does it have to do with you?” Castiel showed utter disdain as he challenged Harvey.“In any case, I don’t want to see you here!”“If you’re not leaving, then I’m not saving Leona!”Harley
Rodney shot his grandson a bitter and infuriated expression.He slapped Castiel around a few dozen more times to the point the latter’s face was completely swollen.He then dragged Castiel by the collar and threw the boy in front of Harvey.“I’m sorry about this, Teacher!” Rodney exclaimed, after kneeling himself.“I didn’t teach this b*stard well enough!”“I even taught him your techniques!”“I didn’t think he’d offend you like this, despite his lack of experience!”“Please forgive him!”“Give him a chance!”“T-Teacher?!”Reece and Castiel were completely shocked to hear the title, and to see Rodney kneeling in front of Harvey. They were filled with utter disbelief.Harley quickly covered her mouth, trying her hardest not to scream.Nobody expected that Golden Sands’ top geomancy expert with immense status in the business would call someone like Harvey his teacher!The entire city would be in an uproar if word about this were to spread.“Let me tell you right now, you b*
Harley was completely shocked. Her eyes frantically twitched, and she was filled with disbelief.‘A live-in son-in-law is this powerful?’The man she supported was kneeling in front of Harvey, getting slapped around all the while.‘This…’Harley couldn’t help but mutter to herself.“Impossible! This is impossible!”“Stand. Ignorance isn’t a crime.”After seeing Castiel and Rodney’s attitudes, Harvey quickly lifted up Castiel.“Just remember: geomancy arts aren't for showing off.”If it wasn’t for Harvey, Castiel would’ve gotten Leona killed.Castiel nodded without pause.“I understand! Thank you for your teaching!”“I’ll remember that!”Harvey then glanced at Rodney.“My technique can be used to clean up the evil energy inside Leona, but…”“This can only get her body recovered, and not her eyes.”“Just like a small boat, if you want it to travel steadily, you need both the sea to be calm and the quality of the boat to be good enough for it to go far.”Harvey took a dee
Swoosh!Ten minutes later, the evil energy that had come out of Leona’s body dissipated immediately.Harvey snapped his fingers, and walked away before blowing out the fog in his mouth at a safe distance.When everything disappeared in thin air, he smiled.“It’s all done. Just rest for a few minutes and Ms. Foley’s sight and energy will be recovered.”Bam!Harley quickly pushed Harvey away and rushed toward Leona, planning to wipe the cinnabar off her face.“No! You can’t!”Slap!Kairi had long been prepared; she instantly swung the back of her palm across Harley’s face, stopping the latter.Harley screamed in pain, and fell to the ground.She stood up again quickly, covering her face.“This is bad! This is really bad!”“You need to wipe off the cinnabar mark!”Slap!This time, Reece stepped forward and slapped Harley in the face.Harley instantly fell to the ground once more.“Why did you hit me, Uncle?!”Harley was filled with resentment.“I’m doing this for my cou
Reece glared coldly at Harley, whose face had lost all color completely.“Let me tell you one more thing…”“Don’t even think of getting the house at this point!”“I’m giving it to Sir York instead.”“No! You can’t…!”Harley couldn’t accept such a loss.“How could you do this?!”“I’m your relative!”“Harvey’s just an outsider! Why would you give it to someone like him?”“This isn’t right!”“That’s what you think!”Reece scoffed coldly.“I’ll give it to whoever I damn well please!”“You can’t! Harvey doesn’t even know anything about geomancy!” Harley screamed her lungs out.“He can’t save Leona! He just can’t…”Before she could finish her words, her eyes widened with utter shock and disbelief.Leona was standing up slowly, her blank eyes finally moving.“I can see…!”“I can really see!”Leona cried in happiness, her voice trembling.She thought she would have to spend the rest of her life in darkness…However, Harvey came to give her another chance at life.“Don’t u
Harvey didn’t know what to feel after hearing those words.He came here to buy a shop…Not to get more students.Safe to say, the old man was pretty sly!…After that, Harvey was quite busy.Reece transferred the house to Harvey’s name and refused to take his money.He kept calling Harvey his teacher, all the while declining the payment.Harvey was completely helpless. He sighed before finally accepting Reece as his student and teaching him everything he knew about the Book of Changes.Reece felt as if he struck gold. He decided not to treat any more people until he mastered Harvey’s teachings.Rodney took the opportunity to stay in the Fortune Hall as well. After getting more pointers from Harvey, he happily shut himself away from the world again.Just like that, the two geomancy masters were gone in a single night. Many customers in Golden Sands couldn’t find a single person to help them with their situations.Some time later, Leona fully recovered. Her skills and talent
“Your approval?”Harvey chuckled.“You’re only selling building supplies, yet you act like you belong in the government! This is way beyond your authority, is it not?”“How dare you?!” Mari screeched.“Don’t you know the rules here?”“Every single renovation and transportation business here belongs to Robbins Supplies!”“Everyone has to report to us before anything!”“We’ll punish anyone who buys their own materials and renovates on their own!”“Do you understand me?!”Mari slammed the table with a righteous look.“Of course I don’t. What does my renovation have to do with you?” Harvey replied.Mari chuckled coldly.“Do you really not understand? Or are you just pretending?”“I’m being as clear as I can!”“If you’re renovating on our turf…”“Either you buy our building materials and earn our approval before you start working…”“Or you pay a hundred and fifty-thousand-dollar fine!”“You choose!”Mari gestured for a subordinate to hand a price list for building material
Harvey smiled.“That’s fine. I’m not that experienced, anyway…”“I’d like to see who’ll smash up my place later.”“I’ll show you!”Mari chuckled coldly; she had no intention to force Harvey to make a choice.The roar of engines were soon heard outside.An arrogant voice filled the air.“Which one of you b*stards is taking advantage of my cousin?”“A lot of people want to die in this day and age, huh?”Someone kicked open the car door.“Speak! Who are you?”“I never go against people without any background!”A young man in sunglasses strutted out, followed by around eight people behind him.“Do you know who I am?” the man asked with a cold laugh.“I belong to the Newgate Chamber of Commerce!”“My big brother’s Kellan Ruiz!”“You’ll suffer a horrible death if you go against him!”“Hopefully the name scares you. If not, then get ready to die!”After hearing those words, Mari glared at Harvey and laughed wickedly.“You’re finished! You’re definitely finished!”“Kellan?
