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?
The fighters of the Newgate Chamber of Commerce ran fiercely toward the restroom.Mari and the others were completely baffled.They couldn’t accept that the fighters were useless against Harvey.“Not bad. You got me some free workers here.”Harvey chuckled.“Anyone else you want to call over?”“I need a lot more people here!”Mari and the others weren’t stupid. Judging from the situation, they knew that Harvey had an extraordinary identity.They were all gritting their teeth, pretending not to hear what Harvey had said.After looking into Harvey’s eyes, Mari gritted her teeth and waved her hand.“We’re leaving!”The others turned around, preparing to step out.“What’s this?”“What do you think this place is?”“You come here to threaten me and delay my work, then you leave just like that?”“Do you think you can just do whatever you want here?”Harvey smiled calmly.“What is it that you want?”Mari clenched her teeth.“Go over there and dig out all the poop for three
Harvey was a lot freer after letting Castiel handle the front desk. As such, he started planning on how to lure in Evermore.While he was taking a few sips of his tea, Thomas approached him with two other people in tow.At a closer look, the two were actually Saul and Lola—the two people who should’ve been trying for a baby at home.Harvey invited the three to sit in Leona’s favorite gazebo.After pouring them each a cup of tea, he smiled at them.“Why the long faces? Did something happen?”Saul quickly slammed his knees to the ground, kneeling. “I’m sorry, Sir York,” he began in a trembling voice.Harvey quickly lifted him up, frowning. “What’s going on? Why are all three of you here?”Harvey felt it strange to see such an odd group together.“This isn’t about Thomas. I got the wrong person on my side…”The usually graceful Lola let out a bitter chuckle.“After Golden Estate fired Thomas’ ex-girlfriend, that woman sold every single detail about the company to our compet
Harvey frowned and reorganized all the information he just got.“To put it simply, the geomancy expert picked out the lands for us to buy, and that information is strictly confidential.”“And after Sydney leaked all that, competitors like Blazer Estate are trying to raise the prices of those lands and make things harder for us.”“Under these circumstances, the expansion of our company will be at a full stop. Is that what you’re saying?”“Yes!”Saul nodded, his eyes cold.“I sorted out the whole process before getting here.”“Ronnie and us had exchanged blows quite a lot of times before, but this is just completely shameless.”“He’ll skin us alive if we make a wrong move.”Harvey nodded.“Ronnie Lee…”Lola looked at Harvey with an apologetic look.“I heard rumors that Golden Estate’s competitors are banding together under Ronnie’s lead.”“They’re trying to scalp the lands we’re buying while also forcing us to sell our lands for half the price.”“If they actually do all thi
“Everything’s out of the bag at this point. Since Ronnie raised the price of the lands we were supposed to buy, the government wouldn’t just lower it back for no reason.”Harvey poured himself a cup of tea and took a sip.“I need to know one thing: how do we solve the entire situation with Ronnie and the others at a complete loss?”Golden Sands was given to Harvey, but this was still his first business in the city.He decided to put in a little more effort. It’d be bad if people talked about his first business here being a flop.“First, we need Ronnie and the others to give up on attacking Golden Estate. When the government turns a blind eye to the increasing prices, everything will be back to square one.”Lola gripped her cup, but she couldn’t take a sip of her tea at all.“That’s impossible. People like Ronnie won’t give up so easily after finding such a good opportunity.”“Second, we must quickly find better land and change our ways to market our products, giving us a better
Harvey pondered for a moment before pointing at the junkyard.“Here.”“As long as we have that land, our real estate business will flourish, We’ll become tycoons of Golden Sands in an instant!”Saul chuckled helplessly.He knew that Harvey was well-versed in geomancy, but he didn’t think that Harvey was all that good at appraising land.Many geomancy experts had already been to the land. Everything was completely ruined because of all the trash surrounding the place.Harvey would turn into the joke of the city if he chose that place impulsively.That said, Saul wouldn’t dare speak his mind since he owed Harvey a huge favor. It’d be too disrespectful if he said anything.“What do you mean by that?” he asked after pondering for a moment.“Simply put, after this, we’ll be the only ones who can sell houses,” Harvey replied.‘What did he just say?’Upon hearing those words, Saul chuckled inwardly, feeling bitter.He quietly cursed Harvey for choosing a land like that so irrespon
In that instant, all the elites from Origin Fist could only gasp. They didn't know how to react when they saw what happened. Normally, once Harvey gave Kuro the chance to turn the table around, Kuro should have the advantage.But the result?Kuro was being stepped on, and he didn't even have the power to resist. Before Harvey's strength, he was just too weak."Not only can't you fight, but you're also making me very disappointed," Harvey said as he squatted and patted Kuro's face. It was a simple action, but it was enough to humiliate Kuro completely."Stop wasting time here, kid. I acknowledge that I've been careless, and I acknowledge that I'm not as skilled as you. I surrender!" The expression on Kuro's face was one of stubbornness. "If you can, kill me! I'm telling you, even if I die, the Origin Fist will never let you go! No matter who you are, you'll die in the hands of Origin Fist! If I die, your whole family will die with you!""How naïve," Harvey said with a smile. In t
"Your level of power is insufficient as well. Your so-called Black Hands is somewhat interesting, but you can't even unleash half of its power. Which means that the Sky Plane's martial arts aren't good, and so are you," Harvey said as he kept on slapping Kuro.Kuro couldn't even move away from getting slapped. His face was full of blood, and its contour had completely changed. All the Origin Fist elites could only watch this in shock.Kuro was the cream of the crop of Origin Fist. Not only was he a True Warrior, but he had even mastered the Black Hands. Why couldn't he escape the weak slaps from Harvey? How could Kuro not defeat Harvey, especially in a place like Grand City?This was the same as the Origin Fist's dignity being completely soiled!But another question appeared. Were the weak-looking slaps really that powerful?"You fool! How dare you slap me!" Kuro snarled, fury and doubt on his face. He was shocked at Harvey's power. He didn't think Harvey could slap him that e
"You fool!" Kuro was completely infuriated.He immediately appeared in mid-air in front of Harvey, his palms striking down. The black miasma surrounding his hands turned into gigantic palms, carrying a powerful aura. They seemed to be expanding without limits. At that instant, they seemed to be covering the entire sky.Everyone gasped.What was going on? Was this the legendary Black Hands?They couldn't believe it! Then they saw how Harvey seemed like he was stunned by the terrifying Black Hands. He simply stood there, unmoved, as if he was frozen.Alexei's expression changed. He wanted to call out to Harvey, but he noticed that he couldn't say anything as his throat had gone dry. He couldn't even move.He wasn't the only one. Even the bodyguards from the Foster family were all full of despair. They never expected the elites from Sky Plane could be so strong—it shook them to the core. Even among the seven families from Grand City, only the few most talented people would hav
Harvey frowned and looked at Alexei. "Alexei, do all the people from Sky Plane have some emotional issues? Why are they all so self-centered?""Well…" Alexei was speechless. 'Bro… Big bro…' While Harvey had the strength to ignore the people from Sky Plane, Alexei didn't! Not only did he want to live, but he wanted to live a good life too!When Kuro heard Harvey's words, he smiled coldly. "You have quite the confidence, Mr. Representative. You probably don't understand what the words True Warriors meant. Today, allow me to help you understand just how terrifying the True Warriors from Sky Plane are!"As Kuro said that, he extended his right hand. A black miasma appeared around his fingers. Very quickly, it began to surround both his palms, looking extremely eerie.Mikan instinctively asked, "You're going to use the Origin Fist's ultimate attack, the Black Hands?"The so-called Black Hands was the ultimate technique of the Origin Fist. It was said that every use of it will make
To someone like Mikan, who thought of herself as someone at the top of the social hierarchy, what happened to her was humiliating and infuriated her deeply.She gritted her teeth and stared at Harvey. After a long while, she yelled, "Shameless… You shameless man! How dare you ambush me?!"Slap!Harvey sent Mikan flying again with another slap. This time, she slammed right into a giant stone pillar in the courtyard, and was instantly in a wounded state."Ambush? Do I even need to ambush rubbish like you?" Harvey's expression was full of disdain. "Who do you think you are? What makes you think you're worth ambushing?"Harvey fired a few more slaps at Mikan. There was no way for her to escape, and her entire face was now full of dirt. In the end, she was thrown out of the entrance. She rolled on the ground, and Harvey even kicked her on the buttocks.When all the spectators saw what had happened, their eyes grew wide, their faces filled with disbelief. They never expected that thing
Sky Plane and Grand City were similar. Their status in the Island Nation was also very high. Some of the Islanders even treat the Sky Plane as where the gods resided and would worship them.Since the ruling Royal Family and the Six Schools couldn't limit the Sky Plane, it made everyone who came from the Sky Plane incredibly arrogant. They believed they were the best of all. They believed that as long as they announced they were from the Sky Plane, no one could do anything to them.Mikan's attitude made everyone hold their breaths in anticipation. Some of those who still had compassion within them shook their heads.While it was nothing to them if they offended ordinary Islanders, members of the Six Schools and even those from the ruling Royal Family, crossing Sky Plane was a death wish.No one other than the direct descendent of the Grand City could attract Sky Plane's wrath.Just when all of them thought that Harvey was going to surrender, Harvey simply smirked and said, "As expe
"Since you're all coming for me, then there's no need to hide your intentions. Why don't you just directly tell me what your aim is?" Harvey said coldly. The attack on him smelled like a plot. However, the Islanders were making this too obvious… Only fools couldn't see through it."I'm Mikan Inoue, and this is my older brother Kuro Inoue. We are practitioners of the Origin Fists from Sky Plane," the Islander woman said with a commanding tone as she played with her martial arts robe, showing the size of her chest."When we're at the Sky Plane, we heard that the representative of Country H's Martial Arts had completely demolished all the Six Schools of the Island Nation. While they were simply servants of the Sky Plane, you still have to consider who their masters are. If you dare to hit our servants, then it's only natural for you to pay the price, correct?"Kuro Inoue also said with a smile, "Kneel and beg us to spare you. Then, we won't make a move. But the condition is that you
When Harvey saw what happened, his eyes became even colder. Even Alexei, someone who didn't know much about Harvey, could sense the murderous aura coming from him. He shuddered. Then, he mustered the courage he needed to yell, "Hey! You islanders! How dare you throw Dragon Gate into chaos! Do you have a death wish?!"When the elites from the Island Nation walked out of the inner courtyard and heard that, they hurled the injured trainers on the ground. Then, all of them tilted their heads as they looked at Harvey with a sneer.The leader among the Islanders' elites stepped forward and said in a nonchalant tone, "You're the Dragon Gate's scion as well as the representative of the Country H Martial Arts Alliance? You're only here after waiting for you for so long… Don't tell me you're scared?" He spoke the language of Country H very well, but if one were to listen, it was clear that his fluency was still quite lacking. A woman was walking next to him, playing with the sleeve of he
Alexei's eyes narrowed when he saw the man in the Island Nation's martial arts robe. "Big bro, are you really the scion of Dragon Gate? If you are, then this is going to be troublesome. The man who's challenging the training hall is one of the representatives the Island Nation's Sky Plane sent here. He's supposed to be an elite trained in the Origin Fist."Harvey's curiosity was piqued. "Origin Fist?"Alexei nodded. "You probably don't know this. While the so-called Six Schools sound great in the Island Nation, when it comes to the Origin martial arts from the Sky Plane, they are nothing! Even if we don't talk about the rest and just the Origin Fist, everyone who's trained in it is legendary. It's said that they can split mountains with their bare fists alone, and it's even more powerful than our country's Eagle Claw technique!"Alexei's expression was one of fear as he pointed at the wounds on all those trainers. If one were to look closely, all ad signs of being clawed upon. T
