Harvey didn’t care about the ruckus, nor did he pay attention to the screaming crowd. He calmly sent a text before finally speaking up.“You’re an interesting bunch.”“You didn’t even bat an eye at Aston and you’re already screaming at me, claiming that he’s already dead.”“Shouldn’t you be calling an ambulance instead?”“Besides, he’s only been dead for five minutes. Nobody has contacted anyone yet, and you people are already here with steel bats?”“You must’ve known he was going to die, right?”Castiel’s phone vibrated. After seeing the text on his screen, he left without making a sound.“Bullsh*t!”The middle-aged woman had no intention to speak reason with Harvey. She looked furious.“You killed him, and now you’re putting the blame on us?!”“Are you still human?”The others revealed righteous expressions and started screaming as well.“That’s right! Everyone saw him dying after you fed him something!”“How dare you push the blame after all that?”“More importantly, h
The middle-aged woman raised her head and looked around her arrogantly.Harvey kept smiling.“I don’t like the conditions, though.”“How about this? I’ll resurrect your dad right now.”The woman froze when she heard those words.“What do you mean by that?”The other customers were stunned as well.Castiel pinched his nose, a bowl in hand. A rancid smell wafted in the air as soon as he walked inside the hall.The woman’s face turned ugly. “What are you doing?”“Your dad’s dead. I have a concoction that I made myself for resurrections.”Harvey pinched his nose as he spoke.“I swear in my name…”“That once he drinks this, he’ll revive faster than the speed of light!”“If not, I’ll shut this place down and give you your money—no, 1.5 million just isn’t enough! I’ll pay you fifteen million!”Harvey took a few steps back.“Feed him, Castiel.”Castiel was speechless. He grit his teeth and he took off the lid from the bowl.A foul smell filled in the air.Nobody knew where
“Blargh!”Right as the medicine entered Aston’s mouth, his body shook. He opened his eyes in panic, struggling to spit everything out of his mouth.“What?!”The people around him screamed in fear and stumbled back. They all looked as if they had seen a ghost.None of them thought that a dead person could actually be revived this way.Cliff and the others looked puzzled. “This is life-saving stuff here, old man! You need to drink it all up to prevent yourself from getting cursed again,” Harvey said. He pressed his foot on Anton, stopping Anton from struggling. He watched as the foul medicine went right into Anton’s mouth.The people were disgusted. They wanted to scream, but they couldn’t. Even the middle-aged woman and her men couldn’t do anything about the situation.Soon, Anton swallowed all the medicine. Harvey moved his leg away.“Go wash up now, Castiel,” he said. “You’re disgusting.”“Get Maren to clean up here too.”“Don’t forget, this costs fifteen dollars.”Cast
Aston and the others’ expressions were horrible.They were in disbelief; they didn’t think Harvey could tell they were using a talisman to fake Aston’s death.The best way to counter that talisman was something filthy. Pig swill was naturally the best medicine.Cliff and the others waved their hands, smirking coldly. Many workers rushed forward, clutching steel bats.Before, they felt guilty because they thought they had killed someone. Now that they had regained their moral high ground, they wanted to retaliate.The rest of the customers finally understood the situation.Aston and his relatives were here to make trouble!Not only did Harvey see through their geomancy arts, but he humiliated them in public as well. After realizing they had been completely fooled by these shameless people, the customers stood on the benches with a righteous look.“You think you can just cause trouble in the Fortune Hall, you b*stards?”“You scared the sh*t out of me! Do you think you can leav
“Look into this. See if Aston visited Volton Hall before. If he did, find a way to bail him out,” Harvey said.Cliff appeared again when Harvey finished his third pot of tea.“Sir York, he did go to Volton Hall before coming to our place. When he came out of there, he seemed to have become a different person.”“I bought off one of the workers there, and I’ve confirmed that the actors were all from the same place.”“The Volton Hall is involved!”“After they failed to cause us trouble last time, they embarrassed themselves and ran out of business. They had no choice but to rely on free services to attract customers.”“They were hoping to shut down Fortune Hall for good this time.”“What a shame. You’ve outmatched them! Volton Hall will definitely suffer.”Castiel bit into an apple, his face filled with admiration.“We shouldn’t have gone easy on them last time, Master York!”“Who’s the owner of Volton Hall?” Harvey asked. “A man from the underworld. His name is Waylon Sacket,
“Master York?”“Repay the favor?”The middle-aged man squinted at Harvey, smirking coldly. “You’re not even old enough, and you’re here to challenge our master?”“Who gave you the courage?”Harvey sized up the man, and saw something black on his forehead.“Interesting,” he said curiously. “What kind of business do you people do here? Why is a graverobber like you serving customers?”The man’s expression changed instantly; he was scared witless after hearing those words.“Wh…What do you mean by that?”“I’m warning you, kid! You better not spout nonsense!”“I’ll sue you if you do!”The man talked big, but he looked awful. Naturally, Harvey managed to touch a nerve.“If I’m guessing correctly, you found a huge tomb of a landlord from the Whip Dynasty. You planned to dig everything up and sell them for money.”“But evil energy filled the air as soon as you did. You got scared and ran out of the place.”“Your luck has been very bad recently. You tried to solve it yourself, bu
“August 16th is a blessed date, suitable for marriages,” she continued. “This…”Her expression changed, and she quickly made a few calls.Then, she looked admiringly at Harvey. “You’re the true geomancy expert here, Master York!”“I asked a few other people. They all said the same thing you did!”Her son’s wedding was very important to her. At first, she planned to ask a few geomancy experts about it.Yet, she was recommended such a horrible date on her first meeting.Hearing those words, the customers glared disdainfully at the young man.‘This guy’s just a con man…’‘Doesn’t he know that experienced people will question the dates?’“Thank you, Master York! I didn’t bring a lot of money, but please take this.”The woman was clearly wealthy. She quickly pulled out two fat stacks of cash and handed it to Harvey before kicking the young man to the ground.The young man didn’t have the courage to crawl up or scream in pain; he wanted to hide himself in a hole so badly.“How
The customers nodded after hearing Harvey’s words. It was impressive how he pointed out the geomancy expert’s problems with just a single glance.“It’d be easy for Waylon to deal with your problem,” Harvey said.“But do you know why he didn’t tell you?”“He’s waiting for you to enter a forbidden relationship with him.”Everyone burst out laughing when they heard that. Harvey was probably right.Waylon’s actions made it clear that he was a heinous man.The geomancy expert thought of something, and shivered.“Can I really fix my problem after I deal with my mole, Master York?” she asked after a moment’s hesitation.“Not just that, you’ll find your true love the next time,” Harvey replied calmly.The geomancy expert bowed gratefully. Then, she threw her robe to the ground and walked out of Volton Hall. She was finally reborn.The disciples of Volton Hall exchanged glances.‘This was disrespectful!’‘This was insane!’Not only did Harvey casually defeat the disciples, but he
The young man, who Linus addressed as Mr. Parker, ignored Ray and immediately set his eyes on Sia. For someone like him who came out of the mountains, fashionable young women from the mountains were women he rarely had a chance to interact with.And then, he glanced at Harvey. He did not bother hiding the disdain in his eyes. It was as if a fly had landed on his delicious cake, and he could not help but feel disgusted. When the image crossed his mind, he said, "Mr. Linus, I don't like people who interfere with our business.""I understand," Linus said coldly. "Let me deal with it."Then, Linus waved his hand, and dozens of mutants from Country A cracked their necks as they moved forward."You're thinking of dealing with who?" A calm voice came from in front of Linus. Then, he saw Harvey was already standing up, as he had already finished helping Sia regulate the energy inside of her. Then, he grabbed the ashtray nearby and hurled it."Ah!" The ashtray landed right on Linus's head,
Sia was Yvonne's younger cousin, and the two of them had met once. She even called Harvey brother-in-law. However, he did not expect the two of them to meet again in these circumstances.Harvey quickly pushed open the car door, walked out, and immediately checked Sia's pulse and asked, "Sia, what's going on here?"Sia instinctively wanted to struggle when a man touched her. However, when she saw Harvey's face clearly, she calmed down and stopped being on her guard."Why are you here?""Stop talking. Your condition right now is quite unusual. Let me give you a hand," said Harvey with a frown. While he could tell that Sia had been drugged, he did not realize it would be so powerful. The person who drugged Sia also did not think about the consequences and used about ten times more than the standard dosage.Most importantly, this was not some typical poison. It was a kind of insect poison that could awaken one's primal desire. And this situation was quite difficult to deal with. With
One moment later, Janus approached Emery with a dark expression. Meanwhile, Emery was brewing tea.Emery had just added some tea to the teapot and relaxedly filtered the first pot of water. Then, he took out his antique cup and poured himself a cup of tea.Only once he was almost done did Emery glance at Janus. "What happened?"Janus had a strange expression before he spoke sternly: "Boss, Ms. Isis of Sherril Corp had just been humiliated. Drake, who had just returned from the Northern Land, had also been wasted. They had even knelt and vowed not to harass Ms. Journi again…Emery's hand held his teacup still as he listened. A glint of strange light illuminated his eyes before he calmly said, "Don't tell me Harvey did this."Janus nodded. "I really can't figure it out until today. Just where did Harvey come from? He didn't care who he offended at all. Here, he had just killed Hector and foiled the Island Nation's plans, and the next he did was hurt Drake and humiliate Country A."
Isis took a deep breath as she gritted her teeth, "If you dare hurt Drake, both the Wards of the Northern Land and the Sherril Corp won't show you any mercy!""Oh? Then, I really want to see how you plan not to show me mercy.After he said that, Harvey placed the revolver he held on Drake's shoulder and pulled it.Bang!There was a huge sound, and Drake trembled. His shoulder had been shot, and blood instantly started to flow. If every shout before this was simply trying to scare him, then this shot was clean enough to the point of scaring them. All of them felt Harvey was a murderer.At this point, they finally understood that Harvey was not a risk-taker. He was even crazier than Drake.There was only silence at the scene. It was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop, as everyone was still stunned. They were truly stunned by how fast Harvey did it, and the entire club's atmosphere instantly plummeted. Many were shaking and trembling.While they believed they were more importa
Isis's expression instantly darkened. Harvey's earlier decisiveness had already made her understand that Harvey would pull the trigger."Bend the knee, apologize, and make your vow," Harvey ordered calmly. "I'm growing impatient. Three, two, one…"Without giving Drake a chance to speak, Harvey pulled the trigger again.Clack!The fourth time. It was still a dry fire.Isis's mind was completely blank, and she was blinded momentarily. While she always looked like someone high-and-mighty, she felt like she was nothing in front of everything Harvey had been doing. She thought that she could easily lose her life.Drake was so scared that he was shuddering.While it was still a dry fire, the next time he pulled the trigger, there was a 50% chance of it being a bullet. No matter who Harvey pointed the gun at, that person would have a 50% chance of going to hell."My, they always said that those who are kind live short lives while those who are problematic live a very long life. I didn
"You're threatening me?" Harvey patted Drake's cheek. "I know you must be very haughty, but the problem is that you're right in my hands tonight. Do you think threatening me like that is going to help you? Do you actually think I wouldn't dare to pull that trigger after you threatened me?"I've killed people like you for a dime a dozen. Nothing happened to me anyway. Why am I still standing perfectly fine here? At the root of it, it's because people like you are useless!"Harvey continued in high spirits, "Hey, Drake. Do you want to make a bet? Let's bet that no matter how headstrong you are, you're going to kneel on the ground and beg me to spare your life."Drake coldly replied, "And what's the wager? Your life?"Harvey blurted out a laugh. "No, you're not nearly valuable enough to make me wager my life. But, if you don't beg me until the very end, I can agree to any of your conditions.""Fine. At the time, I'll make you kill yourself!" Drake said as he gritted his teeth. "We'll
"You're that lucky?" Harvey said, his shock palpable on his face. "Alright, one more time."This time, Drake raised his left hand to block the gun's muzzle using all his strength. He believed that if this continued, even if he would not die from a bullet, he would die from the fear alone. "You're scared?" Harvey looked at Drake curiously. "Aren't you the Madman? Aren't you the third in Wolsing out of all the Young Masters? Why are you so afraid of dying? You're so arrogant while harassing my girlfriend. Why are you such a piece of trash now, huh?" Harvey patted Drake's face disdainfully.In that instant, there was only silence. No one expected this man who called himself Journi's boyfriend to be so big-headed. Not only did he dare to threaten Drake, he really wanted to kill Drake. Was he not afraid the Wards of the Northern Land would show him no mercy?But of course, to someone like Journi, while she was surprised, she was mainly touched. She was certain someone like Harvey would
And then, Harvey waved his left hand. The moment when Drake was stunned, the revolver then dropped into Harvey's hand.Once Harvey had obtained the revolver, he spun the cylinder, unlocked the safety, and pointed the revolver around. All the people who were so smug earlier started to scream and tried to find places to hide after being shocked.Harvey's play with the revolver made it obvious that he would discharge it accidentally.Even Isis, who had always been so high-and-mighty, had her expression darkened for a while and hid behind a marble column subconsciously. He who has nothing to lose has nothing to fear. Harvey looked like he had nothing to lose at all.That was why the foreigners all believed that if they were killed by Harvey, even if Harvey was willing to die for his mistake, it was still something they could not accept. After forcing the group away, Harvey then pointed the revolver at Drake's head.Drake's eyes turned cold. "Who are you, kid? Do you think this is som
In the end, Journi took a deep breath and buried all her helplessness and fury deeper into her heart. Then, she slowly said, "You must be joking, Ms. Isis. You are the daughter of the Sherril Corp from Country A. No matter how bold I am, I wouldn't dare to cross you. However, I simply wish for you to show some mercy…"To thank you, I'm willing to give you some of the assets in Country A I owe you for free as my gift. I believe you won't make it difficult for me, right?"Journi thought she had already lowered herself to the point that she was practically begging Isis to show her mercy. At this point, she even felt that she was giving up. She even forgot that she had Harvey pretend to be her boyfriend.Harvey was pleased, however. Instead of using an excuse like having a boyfriend, she was willing to accept other conditions in exchange for her freedom. This was a sign that she was maturing."Tsk… Assets from Country A? The few mansions you bought on the West Coast?" Isis lit a cigare
