Watson Braff looked at Harvey York, hoping he would pay Eliel Braff respect.Harvey showed a smile before stepping forward.“Mr. Watson…”Before Harvey was done speaking, Eliel indifferently glared at him.“Your geomancy arts isn’t as good as I thought, kid…”Harvey froze.“Me?”He was impressed by Eliel. After all, that was the exact truth.He was well-versed in the art of killing and not geomancy arts.Watson jumped in shock.“You can’t say that, Father! Harvey’s geomancy arts is best in the city…”“You do everything indecisively. You get scared of every tiny detail. You care about showing off, yet you’re afraid of causing trouble for yourself after that…“You don’t even know how to gauge your enemies’ luck. You can’t even tell if you can afford to go against the people you challenge or not…“And yet you tell me that you’re a geomancy expert?Eliel showed a dignified look when he casually glanced at Harvey.“So, what right does a person like you even have to help the f
“No matter how impressive Colson is, he’s still just the second young master!“In the younger generation of the John family, Blaine is the only one who holds weight.Harvey York had no intention of hiding anything.“Not only is he a direct descendant of the family, he’s an extremely talented person with exceptional martial arts.“More importantly, I suspect he’s the most important figure of Golden Sands related to Evermore.“It’s a little troubling to deal with him because of that.“I let go of Colson and show him my cards for one reason.“I wanted him to know that there aren’t many people in the younger generation who could go against someone like Blaine.“But I’m definitely one of them!“If Colson wants to rise to power, he’ll surely provide me with enough information!“As soon as he calms down, he’ll understand I’m the best person to suppress Blaine.Harvey smiled faintly.“From this perspective, not only would Colson not betray me, but he’d also do everything in his pow
After hearing about the Jackson family’s good relations with the Braff family, Harvey York immediately understood.This was the only Hermit Family that he had not encountered so far.It was fate for him to be meeting one of them here.Harvey smiled before speaking.“That’s fine. Since an expert from the West is here, we should all have a look.“I heard that astrology arts are also pretty impressive.“Maybe the expert could fix the house.“Not bad. Not bad at all.”Eliel Braff patted Harvey’s shoulder once again. He was quite satisfied with Harvey’s attitude and tolerance.The three walked out of the courtyard before seeing a dozen men and women come forward.The group leader was a gentle-looking woman with an extremely reserved attitude.She wore a dress with dark blue patterns, making her seem relatively modest.She would occasionally take huffs of her bong before blowing out puffs of sweet-scented smoke.A westerner in a robe was seen beside her.He was a tall and stron
That said, Mr. Davis was a talented man despite his fees.It was said that he managed to suppress werewolves from Russia, river deities from the Island Nations, and other beings. He was quite a powerful man.For his protection, many Western royal families would use a large sum of gold to hire him annually as a consultant.The world’s top wealthy families would also ask him to determine their luck.Western arts like this have entirely different theories and systems than Country H’s geomancy arts, but Watson Braff felt a lot more confident after seeing Mr. Davis’ appearance.“I met Mr. Davis while I was still studying in the West.“That was why I asked him to come take a look.“That said, he came with his team without questioning a single word!“Many royal families wouldn’t even get his support even after wearing out their mouths!“The bishops of the Divine Prison aren’t just pushovers, after all!”Eliel Braff did not seem to be that surprised.“You’re too kind,” he said, smil
Harvey York’s calm words completely froze Penny Jackson in place.She stared with disbelief. She did not expect Harvey to see through her trouble immediately.She instantly changed expression before showing a fierce glare.“You b*stard!” she exclaimed.“Have you been following me?!”Harvey let out a chuckle.“I’m not interested in a woman like you.“I’ve never even met you before today.“Where would I even follow you?“What would I follow you with?”Penny froze before letting out a cold scoff.“I admit, you do have some talent, but you’re definitely not on Mr. Davis’ level!“Geomancy arts are no match against astrology arts anyway!“With the bit of skill you have, you’re completely inferior!”Harvey calmly smiled.“Enough of this nonsense. Get your bishop to do his job already!”Eliel Braff and Watson Braff curiously looked at the sight. After all, it was quite interesting pitting geomancy arts against astrology arts.Besides, Penny had always been a princess figure of
“What?!”Penny Jackson gasped in disbelief.On the one hand, she did not expect the Braff family to have such a huge problem.On the other hand, she did not think that Harvey York could tell the problem with just a glance.Even Eliel Braff curiously looked at Harvey. Naturally, he had taken an interest in Harvey’s methods and prowess.Watson Braff’s eyes twitched after hearing those statements.“How is this possible?!“The family will be in dire straits in three months?!“Is this a joke?!”Eliel waved his hand.“This is my fault.“I should’ve left the place by now, but I wanted to preserve the property out of my feelings for home…“I didn’t think I’d get everyone else involved because of this…“This is my mistake!”Then, Eliel looked at Mr. Davis.“Do it then, Mr. Davis.“Blow up the house if you have to. Bury me alive if you must.“But I have one request: please don’t let my children get involved in this when everything’s done.”Naturally, Eliel had already said the
Naturally, Watson Braff would not be able to accept that fact.The Braff family was the head of the Hermit Families. They had lasted six hundred years throughout history, yet they only had three months left to live…This was simply unbelievable!Eliel Braff was unnerved by the news.“Alright. Enough of this. We won’t need many people to help with the house anymore.“Watson, Mr. Davis went out of his way just to come here.“Give him twenty ounces of gold to show our sincerity.”Naturally, time is of the essence for Eliel. The Braff family needed to use their remaining three months to prepare themselves.If not, they would be doomed without knowing what were to happen.Judging from the current situation, turning the Braff family into an ordinary family was their only way out.Eliel understood this. He did not want to fight against the current anymore.Mr. Davis was smart. He obviously knew what was on Eliel’s mind.“Thank you, Mr. Braff!” he said with a bitter chuckle.“That
“A hundred percent?!“You’re that confident?!Penny Jackson immediately lashed out.“Can you stop bluffing already?!“You keep doing this; pigs will actually start to fly!“How dare you say you’re that confident?!“You think this is a damn movie or something?!”After hearing Harvey York’s words, Watson Braff instinctively stepped forward.“I believe in Sir York!”He knew Harvey was a calm and resolute man.Since he said that he was confident, then that was nothing but the truth!“Not bad, young man!“At least I wasn’t this bold to trick people like this when I was around your age!Mr. Davis showed a disdainful glare as he stared at Harvey.“That said, you’d still have to show your strength no matter the case.“Pulling the crowd here will do you no good!“I’ll make it clear right now!“If you even manage to solve the problem, I’ll kneel and call you my master!”Naturally, Mr. Davis had a smooth sailing life for the longest time. His title as bishop of the Divine Prison
"Have you forgotten your promises to my older brother? Are you going to turn back on your promises?" Coco reminded Zoltan since he had already chosen a side, there were things that he had to do no matter what he thought about it.However, Zoltan had completely ignored Coco. His expression changed a few times before he finally bowed and said, "My apologies, Mr. Harvey. I didn't recognize you for who you are."The moment Coco opened her mouth, Zoltan was 100 percent sure Harvey was indeed who he claimed he was. The Representative of Country H Martial Arts Alliance, the Chairman of Country H Commercial Group, the Scion of Dragon Gate, Prince of South Light… But most importantly, he had utterly defeated Mark of Origin Fist and even the Second Branch owed him a great debt.All of this was enough for him to show respect toward Harvey.Most importantly, he was part of the Second Branch. He could choose to stand with Dan, but he could never go against the family's will. Otherwise, there wa
Crack!Zoltan heard a loud crack before he could even pull the Repeating Crossbow's trigger. Harvey had already snapped the Repeating Crossbow in half using just one hand after touching it.Harvey did not care about the disbelief on Zoltan's face. He raised his leg and immediately kicked him in his stomach. The attack was very powerful. While Zoltan was also a martial arts elite, he stumbled backward despite trying his best to keep himself under control.Coco, Tina, and the others all looked at this moment in surprise. While everything Harvey did so far had been arrogant, it was still quite challenging for them to believe he was still being so haughty before the person in charge of the Peacekeeping Agency.Typically, no one would have done something like this, even if they wanted to die. Harvey would pay an unimaginable price for all his arrogant actions thus far.Zoltan, who had just taken office, would not stop until Harvey was dead to protect his power and status. And just as e
Coco felt like she finally had someone to cling to when she saw Zoltan walking in with a stern expression, accompanied by his men with metallic weapons and Martial Arts Weapons on them.The fear on her face had disappeared entirely, leaving behind coldness and pride.She glanced at Harvey and said, "Zoltan, you're just in time. Belladonna Cult's Princess Vaida is sick again. Please send her to the mental health institute. Her sugar baby most likely took some sort of drugs… He even managed to injure Hereward and the others."Don't worry about this. Tell all your people to attack simultaneously and punish him according to our city's law. Remember, our city is a city of fairness. Punish them according to our laws. You can't show him leniency just because of Vaida!"Coco stood in the middle of the chamber with her hands folded in front of her chest. She stood there giving out commands, coming off as overbearing and egotistical. It was as if everything within Grand City was hers to comm
"You…" Vaida slightly frowned at Coco.Harvey smiled instead. "Vaida, now that things have reached this juncture, we can't end this right here. That way, we'll simply allow them to make their moves. Maybe they'll even think we've chosen to withdraw. That's why my principle has always been to stay put or make a bombastic move. If we don't completely crush their pride this time, they might even think they have some skills."Harvey had already decided that things had gone out of hand, and then he would have to make this end right here and now. This was called fixing the situation in one go and not wasting time."You're still going to act tough at this critical point, pretty boy?" Coco laughed angrily when she saw that Harvey still did not take her seriously. "I'm telling you this right now. I will get my revenge no matter the cost, even if my older brother will punish me because of what will happen. I will make you understand that you can't simply humiliate the Parkers and Parkerville!
After Coco gave out her order, all the elites beside her took out their Rainstorm Needles and immediately pounced at Harvey's location. While these weapons were quite rare outside, they were common in Grand City.Harvey frowned slightly. He was not worried about his own safety, but he did not want Alexei and Vaida to be caught in the crossfire. He immediately glanced at Alexei and said, "Take care of Vaida, and don't come close."And then, Harvey charged into the crowd immediately.He first grabbed an elite by the neck, picked him up like a sandbag, and then brutally hurled him away.Bang!After that loud noise, around seven elites had to retreat as they started coughing blood. As for the Rainstorm Needles in their hands, Harvey had all crushed them under his foot before they could even use it. In less than ten seconds, the so-called elites had all fallen to the ground.In short, the bodyguards that circled Coco meant nothing to Harvey. After finishing with them, Harvey glared at
"Hereward Parker! Get your arse here and kill him! Kill him quickly!" Coco was overwhelmed with fury at this moment. The air of superiority around her was gone, her expression replaced by feral rage. Then, she pointed at Harvey as she gritted her teeth, her voice sounding demonlike.Whoosh!The moment she finished saying that, a figure jumped in from outside the window of the Supreme Chamber. He was so quick that he appeared right before Harvey in the blink of an eye. He did not waste any time and simply raised his hand, punching his fist toward Harvey's face.Unceasing Gate Style, Unshackled Fist.While the attack looked like it had no power behind it, there was an indescribable sharpness behind that attack.When Alexei saw what happened, his expression changed. "Hereward? That martial arts fanatic? Be careful, big bro! You shouldn't underestimate his power!"Tina smirked when she heard what Alexei said. "Since you know who Hereward is, then you should know how powerful he is. H
Harvey didn't let Coco get off scot-free. Instead, he walked up to her with a blank expression and slapped her directly across the face.Slap!Coco let out a painful cry; she immediately flew backward, slamming into a wall opposite the door with a loud bang.Harvey then took out a wet paper towel to wipe his fingers and said calmly, "Why don't you guess if I'm bold enough to kill you?"Coco held her face as she stumbled to her feet, staring at Harvey with wide eyes. The pain on her face aside, she was filled with disbelief and indescribable fury. She couldn't believe there was someone in Grand City not afraid to move against her and even dared to assault her directly.There was no difference between this and having a death wish!She was the princess of Parkerville! In her own family and among the Seven Families of Grand City, she was already standing at the top of the hierarchy. How could Harvey stand up to her? What leverage did he have against her?"What?!"Tina and the othe
"I'm warning you! You better grovel at her feet right now and slap yourself a hundred times so that this is over! Otherwise, you're going to die a horrible death!" Tina yelled as she bared her teeth at Harvey, as if wanting to shred him into pieces.It was clear that to Tina, since she couldn't do anything to Vaida, she could at least take it out on Harvey, right? She was very familiar with the heirs of the powerful families within Grand City. Harvey was very unfamiliar to her and didn't look like someone important at all.Even Coco was sizing Harvey up from head to toe. "You should know your place," she said coldly. "There's a hierarchy in this world, and there are rules you shouldn't touch. There are also people you shouldn't offend so easily. In other words, when you want to step in for someone else, you should also see just how much strength you have. Otherwise, you might lose your head before you can even do anything."Both sides had completely turned against each other tod
Despite his fear, Alexei finally stood up and yelled at Coco and her entourage. "Senior Vaida is fine! You can't do whatever you want! Do you really think you can act as you please with the Belladonna Cult?!"Harvey shot him a surprised glance. He wasn't expecting Alexei to be courageous enough to speak out like that. Vaida remained silent; she only looked at Coco coldly, as if wanting to see what Coco was going to do next."Who do you think you are, Alexei? Since when do you have any power to decide whether Vaida is sick? Only the doctors are qualified to do that," Coco sneered. "And only the doctors who work for the Parker family, at that. Now, take Vaida to the mental health institution. Stop wasting our time!" Coco presented herself assertively, as if she was going to use this excuse to admit Vaida into the institution.What of the consequences?With Parkerville's influence in Grand City currently, they didn't have to care about the consequences. Before Coco's men could
