“Enough!“Stop it with this nonsense!”Prince Gibson stood up, then kicked down the desk in front of Harvey.“Are you planning to break your own legs? Or do you want me to do it for you?” he snarled, pointing at Harvey.“If I do it for you, you won’t get another chance to stand for the rest of your life!”At that moment, sounds of engines could be heard from afar.A few Toyota Prados parked right in front of Fortune Hall.Eighteen men in robes walked out, each bearing stern expressions. Their heads were raised up high—it was clear they were all experts.A seemingly miserable-looking man with a terrifying aura stepped forward.His presence was a lot more intimidating than Prince Gibson’s. He had the aura of an elite, and his eyes shone with murderous intent.He was none other than Darwin, one of Quill’s right-hand men.Prince Gibson froze when he saw Darwin. Then, he smiled. “Why’d you come here, Uncle?”To Prince Gibson, Darwin was here to support him.Darwin had come he
Darwin slammed his head to the ground, not caring about what Prince Gibson said.“Master York! Please! Please be the better person, and save me!”Seeing this, Prince Gibson seethed with rage. ‘What right does a geomancy expert have to make someone like Darwin kneel to him? What kind of sick joke is this?!’The beautiful and distant-looking women covered their mouths as they shrieked.The air tensed up immediately.Nobody expected it. To think that Darwin came all the way here not to support Prince Gibson, but to beg for Harvey’s help instead.“Uncle! Did you forget? You’re my father’s right-hand man! You belong to Heaven’s Gate! What on earth are you doing?!”Prince Gibson stepped forward with a bitter expression.“Why are you kneeling? Does my father know that you’re giving in to a conman like this?!”Slap!Hearing those words, Darwin swung the back of his palm across Prince Gibson’s face.“Filth?!”“Call him that again!“If you even dare, I’ll cripple you right now!”
Prince Gibson and the others instinctively gasped after hearing Darwin’s words.They didn’t think that Harvey could actually convince Darwin this way.They didn’t believe that Shay was crippled by the same man!More importantly, Darwin wouldn’t even dare hate Harvey for it—he only chose to bury the hatchet!A lot of people quietly stepped back without hesitation.Only Prince Gibson was left standing, looking dumbfounded. Even the beautiful women behind him stumbled their way out of the place.Any sane person could tell that he was about to suffer soon enough.Standing beside him would mean having a death wish!Nobody was actually that stupid!Harvey calmly put his teacup down, then wiped his fingers with some tissues.“I’ve disrespected you completely—I forced you to kneel and beg for mercy. Don’t you hate me for that?”“No! I have no right to!”Darwin sighed.“I wouldn’t dare, even if you decide not to do anything! I’d be insane if I did!”Naturally, he knew that his l
“Aaagh!”Screams of pain could be heard.In just a moment, the entire Fortune Hall was in utter chaos.The martial arts experts who came had their limbs broken, and then thrown out of the entrance.Even Prince Gibson was crawling on the ground, looking miserable. One could sense his unspeakable fear, too.Not far away, inside a dark red Porsche 911, Ensley froze when she saw the miserable sight.Seeing Prince Gibson’s horrible state, she was at a loss for words.She didn’t understand how a mere live-in son-in-law kept exceeding her expectations every single time.‘How is it so hard to deal with someone like that?’Someone called an ambulance. Soon, the injured people were all lifted out of the place. It was a shocking sight.After that, Harvey didn’t waste any time removing the evil energy within Darwin’s body. That said, he still kept a trick up his sleeve.He told Darwin to visit every single month to go through the same procedure. Darwin’s problem would go away if he pers
At this very moment, Mandy radiated a fierce aura.She was distant and unapproachable.Because of this, the men who wanted to get closer to her hesitated.“You’re here, Mandy!”Alma, who was dressed in a denim shirt and jeans, emerged from the bustling crowd with a smile.“You’re late again.”Mandy frowned, not bothering to look at her. “Why can’t we just talk at home? What’s the point of coming here?”After what had happened, Harvey’s departure annoyed her very much.After Xynthia returned, she managed to make Mandy see everything in a clear light. Mandy understood that to get Harvey back, she needed to make up for all the wrongs she had done to him.After realizing that she had misunderstood Harvey because Silas tried taking his credit so many times, Mandy no longer had a good impression of Silas.She stopped being friends with Silas immediately, and even canceled every single contract she had with him.Lilian explained to her that Silas did all this because he loved her
Mandy seemed a little gloomy after saying those words.Her greed drove her into getting more contracts and get closer to Silas, causing her to misunderstand Harvey even more.If that wasn’t the case, the two could’ve been remarried by now.Regret surged in Mandy’s heart.She was worried Harvey would have feelings for Kairi because of this. What was she going to do if that were to happen?“You still hate my brother?!”Alma looked bitter.“Not only did you cancel every single one of the contracts you had with him, but you also kept avoiding me whenever I invited you out! You’re clearly disrespecting me!“Do you hate me, too?!”Alma signaled the waiter to bring a cocktail that was prepared beforehand.Mandy hesitated for a moment when she looked at Alma’s sincere expression. “Trust me, I don’t think less of you because of your brother,” Mandy said, taking the cocktail.“You and your brother are two different people.“Let’s just end this here. Tell Young Master John that I do
At this very moment, a Maybach appeared quietly from the side.The window of the driver’s seat rolled down, revealing Silas’s handsome face.Alma said, “Looks like you’ll never be able to get Mandy on your side, Silas.“I don’t know what happened to her recently, but she probably won’t be in touch with you ever again.“There’s only one way you can use to make Harvey regret.“I heard he never touched his wife since they got married three years ago.“You should just send a video of you popping Mandy’s cherry. I’m sure that’ll be enough torture for him.”Alma pulled the door open, and pushed Mandy into the car. At that moment, Mandy lost all consciousness.Seeing Mandy’s sleepy look, Silas grinned. “Don’t you worry! I’m still pissed after everything that Harvey did to me!“Since my plan’s already failed…“I’ll have to crush his heart this way, no matter what!“I’ll take revenge for what happened on the cruise!”Silas’s expression was filled with nothing but malice and hate.
At the White Swan Hotel, inside the presidential suite.Mandy was paralyzed as she lay on the high-class bed.She still had some consciousness intact, but her body wasn’t in a state to resist at all. This was more painful than death itself.She knew exactly what was going to happen.Regret and fear came rushing to her mind at this very moment.She was on the verge of tears.She regretted trusting Alma and being so soft-hearted.At the same time, she hoped Harvey would come swooping in like her guardian angel. She swore to never leave his side again.Silas slowly leaned over, as if he could feel the change in Mandy’s emotions. However, he didn’t lay a finger on her just yet.“There’s no rush, Mandy,” he said, burping. It reeked of alcohol.“I’ll change you into a white gown and give you the biggest diamond ring. We’ll have our sweet time together after that! Be patient!”Silas burst out laughing, then walked into the changing room on the side. When he came out again, he was w
"Not to mention, these are weapons that Grand City's top brass directly controls. If it isn't because I've taken control over Earth Hall recently, I wouldn't have been able to take these out," Clarion said with a sigh.Harvey nodded. "Looks like letting you control Earth Hall is one of my correct decisions after coming to Grand City."Then, Harvey narrowed his eyes and looked ahead. "Clarion. Take your men and attack from the outer ring. Do your best to reach the destination and save our people."Clarion blinked. "And you?"Harvey said, "Always go for the head. A truly powerful elite must be keeping an eye on everything. If we don't eliminate him, our rescue will be destined to fail."Harvey slammed his foot on the ground before jumping into the air, his figure quickly disappearing into the horizon. He noticed that there were plenty of elites converging. This was Sky Plane's territory. No matter how many he killed, his enemies would most likely swarm him.If that was the case,
While Clarion and Harvey were talking, the Origin Sword Style elites were already slowly coming closer.600 feet. 300 feet. 150 feet!As they drew closer, everyone could see their murderous expression. Their firearms already had their safety off. One could also see there were no longer any gaps in their encirclement.With how things were going, the only two options for Harvey and his men were to either get killed or to simply surrender.As they drew closer, not only was Clarion sweating, but all his bodyguards also had cold sweat on their foreheads.Only Harvey wasn't doing anything. He simply narrowed his eyes as if he was quietly calculating something. When there were only 60 feet left, he suddenly said, "You have two seconds."Harvey suddenly slammed his foot on the ground.Boom!A powerful shockwave extended outward, and all the Origin Sword Style elites surrounding them were subconsciously stunned. The shield they were holding momentarily left the ground."Warsong! Fire
At Clarion's order, all his bodyguards immediately dragged out several black suitcases. Within were black holes with blue bullets. It was obvious these bullets were created to be used on Martial Arts elites. The damage they could deal was beyond anyone's imagination.The bodyguards stood in front of Harvey and Clarion with the suitcases, ready to fight their enemies to the bitter end.When the Origin Sword Style elites saw how Harvey and the others reacted, they took out a shield and placed it in front of them. It was obvious they were prepared.Or perhaps, it was easier to say that the Origin Sword Style elites already knew what they had prepared.Clarion's expression darkened. "How did these fools manage to guess we're here with the Warsongs?"Harvey narrowed his eyes. "Is there a possibility that they didn't make a guess, but instead already received news about how many people we brought and what kind of weapons, so they could make preparations for us?"Clarion was stunned. "W
Boom! Boom! Boom!There was a string of explosions in mid-air. The bolts had also been engulfed by the explosion. Even after Harvey had managed to negate the attacks, he didn't stop. He grabbed the rocks from the ground with his hand.Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!Several elites hidden in the shadows instantly lost their fighting skills."He really is a True Warrior," Clarion muttered when he saw what happened. He wasn't even sure what to say.He thought he should be able to put himself to some use this time, hence why he asked to come with Harvey. He didn't expect Harvey to be so powerful that he needed others at all.Very quickly, all the attackers gathered. It was obvious they knew they couldn't do anything to Harvey anymore."These people are from the Origin Sword Style!" Clarion said seriously after he looked at what the attackers were wearing. "They're quite troublesome. While they look like they're over-the-top, they're most likely sacrificial soldiers. But the problem is t
"Of course, if we can maintain absolute discretion, we can escape without alerting anyone once we find Ms. Mandy," Clarion said, remaining positive. "That way, we don't have to fight and draw the attention of those who hold power in Sky Plane."Harvey was sitting in the van. He frowned and looked at the buildings with clear Island Nation influence. "Since Daichi is blackmailing me using Mandy, that means they're confident we won't be able to take her away. I believe we'll have to fight with those from the Origin Sword Style today."Harvey gave it a thought for a while and said, "And don't you think that the information Vaida gave us is too accurate? As if someone left behind an opening for us."Clarion's eyes widened. "Don't tell me this is a trap just for us?"Harvey shook his head. "Not only for us, but also for Grand City. If we're really stuck here… It doesn't matter if we're killed or captured alive, we'll become the excuse for them to attack Grand City. This time, we must…"
Sky Plane's countryside, Clover Hotel.In the Clover Hotel's VIP area, a mansion at the edge of the hotel, Mandy was looking outside with a deep frown. At this time, someone gently knocked at her door from the outside."Come in," Mandy said.The leader of the security team, Seven Jean of the Jeans of Mordu, came in. He bowed to Mandy with respect before saying calmly, "Ms. Mandy, according to the information I've received, the women you've saved have been sent out of Sky Plane. I've also confirmed the people we came into conflict with. He's Yamamoto Sora, scion of the Origin Sword Style."The school's status is very high in Sky Plane. While we managed to get some protection for the time being, I believe we won't be able to make this disappear so quickly. Our visa only has an effective duration of seven days. Once the time is up, Sky Plane will have an excuse to remove all the security here. We'll be in danger when that happens."I think we should leave Sky Plane immediately whil
Mandy reacted very quickly, as if she understood something. She quickly said to Harvey through the phone, "I'm on the sixth floor of a hotel! I…"Before she could even finish, Daichi had already hung up the call with a tap. He then gave Harvey a meaningful look. "There are some rules you should keep, Mr. Harvey. Otherwise, if the people from Sky Plane's side have a misunderstanding, I can't tell what will happen next."Alright. Let's get into the main topic. Ms. Mandy is very safe right now, but I believe that her safety can only be maintained for two to three days. My men can't continue protecting her without a good reason, right? "Once it has been confirmed that there's nothing here that I want, my people who maintain her protection will be pulled back immediately. No one can tell what will happen after that."Daichi gave Harvey a dry smile. "That's why you'll be in control of Ms. Mandy's life and death. We are people who keep our side of the deals. We hope you can maintai
Harvey's expression was calm as he said coldly to Daichi, "No matter how good and logical you make it sound, the truth is, you're threatening me. Rather than being threatened by the Sky Plane, why don't you stick around and be my hostage for an exchange?"As soon as Harvey had finished saying that, he slammed his hand on the table. A piece of wood immediately fired out from the table and pierced into the chair's backrest, just next to Daichi's ear.However, Harvey was in for a surprise. Even in a situation like this, Daichi was still able to maintain his calmness as he continued to enjoy his meal. It was as if the one about to die here wasn't him.Once Daichi had chewed his food slowly and swallowed it, only then did he smile at Harvey. "Mr. Harvey, or Mr. Representative. Do you really think fighting can solve everything? It's true I'm from the branch family of the Ruling Royal Family and the blood of royalty flows in my veins, but there are too many like me. So many that I am eas
"Most importantly, this matter with Ms. Mandy happened in Sky Plane—which means outsiders can't enter quietly and save her," Daichi said to Harvey with a smile. "But don't worry, Harvey. We know Ms. Mandy is yours, so we'll find a way to keep protecting her. How to protect her and for how long would depend on your sincerity, though."Harvey's expression was cold as he said slowly, "And here I thought you'd tell me you'd do everything to protect Mandy, making a show despite how shameless you are. I didn't expect you to be so direct—in threatening me! If I refuse your request, Mandy will immediately fall into Sora's hand, right?"Daichi smiled faintly. "You're indeed a perceptive and decisive man. It makes things easier for me to work with someone like you. I will tell you what you need to do—or perhaps, it's easier for me to say what price you need to pay for Mandy's return."Daichi took a final bite of his fish and said with a smug smile, "It's simple. Give me the Chapter of Ascensi
