Mandy Zimmer frowned the moment she stood up.“Who are you people? Who said that you can come in?” she coldly exclaimed.“You need to pay for the damages, you know.Ensley Johnson waved her hand while completely ignoring Mandy.The bodyguards and Ronins quickly spread out.They stood in front of the entrances and exits before kicking the doors down.The entire house was a mess, but nobody else was around.Mandy was utterly enraged after seeing the sight.“What do you want?!“Do you know that you destroyed an ancient porcelain vase and kiln?!“Those things are priceless!“Who gave you the right to do such a thing?!”“You’re Mandy, right?”Ensley squinted with her long and narrow eyes. A cold expression was obviously showing on her face.“Call Harvey York! Tell him to come!” she exclaimed.“Right now!”Mandy’s expression instantly turned dark.“Who are you to him?“What do you want him for?!”Ensley showed a disdainful glare as she sized up Mandy.“That’s none of your
“I’m calling the cops! You’ll be thrown behind bars!”Mandy Zimmer pulled out her phone, planning to make a call.“Heh! You’re doing that in front of me?!“You really want to suffer, don’t you?!”Ensley Johnson coldly chuckled before pointing at Mandy.“Come! Teach her a lesson! Let her know who she’s talking to!”Along with Ensley’s order, two Islander women grabbed Mandy’s hands before someone else snatched the phone from her hand.“What are you doing?!”Mandy kept struggling, but she was not strong enough to go against the group of people.Her head and hands were held completely still.She was pressed onto the couch, stopping her from moving a single inch.In their eyes, Mandy was just a prisoner.She had no chance to break free.The women were clearly expert martial artists. Mandy was simply powerless against them.She could only grit her teeth as she coldly exclaimed, “You people are barbaric!“This is Country H, this is a lawful country!“You’ll pay for all this!”
“No need to hold back. Continue.”The Islanders excitedly beat up Mandy Zimmer after hearing Ensley Johnson’s order.After all, without status, women would be looked down on by statusless men of the same level.They suffered a lot to get to this point. Now that they could show off, they unhesitatingly took the chance.Mandy’s hands and head were held still. She had no means to fight back. She had no choice but to watch as the women slapped her around without pause.Mandy’s entire body was trembling in pain. Judging from her attitude, she was completely infuriated but would never give in.She would never bow down to those people.Bam!Before long, Mandy’s consciousness started to fade. Mandy’s whole body swayed before she slammed to the ground.***It was already noon when Harvey York quickly came to the People’s Hospital.He saw Lilian Yates, Simon Zimmer, and Xynthia Zimmer panicking like cats on hot bricks.The lights of the emergency room had been on the entire time. It
Lilian Yates suddenly realized that Mandy Zimmer was still being rescued in the emergency room after hearing Simon Zimmer’s words. It would be bad if the commotion affected Mandy’s treatment.Without a second thought, she swallowed her rage and disdainfully glared at Harvey York.Obviously, she would have strangled Harvey to death if it were not for the wrong occasion.“How’s Mandy?”Harvey could not be bothered to entertain Lilian since he knew how she would act. Besides, he was also partly responsible for what had happened.“We only reached here, but the security said that Mandy’s face and stomach were covered in bruises. Her hands were also cuffed behind her back.”Rage was written all over Simon’s face.“My daughter’s the head of the ninth branch! Aren’t those people afraid of us taking revenge?!”Simon’s expression had a mix of anger and worry. A sense of resentment and powerlessness could also be felt from him.Lilian felt utterly dejected. She looked down on Harvey, but
“That said, we managed to treat her injuries for the time being. We’ll have to wait till tomorrow to figure out when the patient will wake up again.“She’ll be warded in the hospital for further observation. I’ll arrange the best room and nurses for her.“Don’t be too worried.”Naturally, Maren Failes was doing this for Harvey York’s sake.If not, ordinary people would not be taking the best rooms. After all, there would be a lot of patients every single day.Simon Zimmer and the others kept bowing after hearing those words.“Thank you! Thank you, Director Failes!”Harvey glanced at Maren.“You’re too kind, Director Failes. If you need Senior Armstrong’s help, just give me a call.”Mandy Zimmer could only rest in the hospital since she was heavily injured externally.Afraid of bothering her sleep, Harvey idly chatted with Xynthia Zimmer briefly before leaving the place.Other than arranging people to protect Mandy, he also had some scores to settle.Later, Xynthia followed
Harvey York returned to Fortune Hall after leaving the hospital.He briefly thought about the situation before sending Prince Gibson a text.The Newgate Chamber of Commerce was not enough to protect the Zimmer family anymore. Instead, the Golden Sands’ branch of Heaven’s Gate had to take action.He believed that with expert martial artists, the family would not get into further trouble.At the same time, his phone vibrated before a surge of texts popped up. They were from Prince.The texts pointed out Chiba Nobita’s background and the people he met upon arriving in Country H.Harvey showed a profound gaze when he saw the list of names.The lights were dimmed out in his study when he stood crossed arms before the window, blankly staring in Wolsing’s direction.At three o’clock in the morning, Harvey’s ears twitched when he heard the sounds of car engines while cooking himself a snack. Judging from the sound, it was probably a pickup truck.Harvey’s eyes twitched before he insti
“The enemy’s got some good moves. Then again, the person who found such a scapegoat must be a local here.“Did we find out who had met with the driver?”Kellan Ruiz thought about the situation for a moment.“I found footage showing someone pushing the drunk into the truck.“The drunk was completely blindfolded. The license plate was covered as well.“He had golden threads on his suit. The person in the passenger’s seat also seemed like an Islander…”Harvey clapped his hands.“The John family. Interesting.“The fact that Chiba Nobita got someone from the John family to do it seems a lot more interesting…”Harvey seemed indifferent. It was clear that Chiba and the others were the culprits.After all, only they would use such a desperate move.The rich and powerful from Country H would always go against each other, but at least they had dignity.It was Harvey’s first time seeing someone attempting murder with gasoline.He did not expect that the John family would be involved
Even without Ramon Lee saying anything, the people on the couches stood up before glaring gloomily at Prince Gibson.The bodyguards showed murderous intent, ready to take action at any moment.Prince’s men spread out before glaring back. With one wrong word, both sides would break out into a fight.Prince completely ignored the people around him as he casually strutted toward Chiba.“Chiba Nobita!” he exclaimed coldly.“You should be giving me a fair statement, don’t you think?!”Chiba showed a shocked expression while pinching his cigar.“Well!“I was wondering who the idiot is!“I didn’t think that it was Prince Gibson in the flesh!“I heard that your leg got broken while you were gone!“Aren’t you mopping the floors of the person who also did that to you?“You’re Prince!“The renowned young master of the Gibson family! How did you end up like this?“Just beg for help if you think that you have no power to take revenge for yourself! I’ll definitely lend you a hand! How
"You are really quite impressive, Ethan. But do you dare to go against the Ministry of Defense's orders openly? I suggest you better give your great elder a call. Or maybe wait for him to call you!" Lanny said as if she had gotten an ace in a hole."I'm worried that you'll accidentally cause a chain effect and lose everything," Ethan coldly replied as he stared at Lanny with a similar coldness in his eyes. To him, none of his leaders could compare with the importance of the chief instructor. But the problem was, he could not inform the great elder why he did this. That was why even someone resolute like Ethan could not help but frown.However, his expression quickly returned calm. "Looks like Grand City isn't as powerful. Not only can you do nothing to me, but you even have to use your favors and connections from the past to stop me. And now, I'm even more convinced that Mr. Harvey is innocent! So, my apologies, but tonight, I don't care who calls me… I'm not going to stop!"Then, E
"You have reasons?" There was fury in Lanny's eyes. "Then tell me, what reasons are they?"Ethan seemed disdainful. "With your status? You don't have the right to know what the reasons are."He did not make that up, though. Lanny really did not have the authority to know Harvey's actual status. "Alright, let's not waste our time. Tell your people to put down your weapons, raise their hands, and squat over there. All my friends here are very impatient. If both sides went into conflict and accidentally killed a few people…"Well. It's going to be categorized as a training exercise accident. We don't have to bear any responsibility for it."Ethan's words were calm, as if everything he said made total and natural sense."Ethan!" Lanny shuddered in anger. "Grand City and the Ministry of Defense have always kept a respectful distance from each other. Are you going to make Grand City your enemy just for this man over here? Have you considered the consequences and whether it was worth it?
Grand City was outside the usual system within Country H. However, the truth was that it was a place where all the Sacred Training Grounds congregated together. Whether it was Country H in its current form or when all the other dynasties ruled it, it had always been an untouchable faction.Not to mention that they were protected by the Seven Families as well as the other Sacred Training Grounds. If they decided to fight, the power Grand City could call upon could far surpass what others could have imagined.That was why Lanny believed they had a fighting chance even when they faced the legendary Sword Camp."Grand City's reputation really does precede itself. And you're really quite impressive yourself," Ethan said as he clapped his hands. "If it's someone else, they would be kneeling on the ground shuddering, right? Unfortunately, you forgot that we survived on real battlefields. We do not fear death. Besides the Chief Instructor, every soldier in this camp is a King of Arms! Even
Harvey slightly frowned. He was shocked that Ethan had arrived. He even brought 500 soldiers from the Sword Camp. Was he attempting to destroy the entire Forbidden Wasteland?The 500 soldiers immediately encircled the entire Forbidden Wasteland as Harvey calmly watched how things developed. All of them had a sword by their waist, and their right hand was at the hilt. While they had not pulled out their swords yet, they were exuding a malevolent aura around them.Harvey had trained each of them, and they had all gone to war with him in the past. When they saw that Harvey was completely unharmed, they were both filled with excitement and relief. However, because of their orders, none of them went to salute him."So, this is the famous Forbidden Wasteland of World City. It was said that the people who were imprisoned here could never leave. I wonder if the Sword Camp can leave this place in one piece?"Ethan, who was in his military uniform, jumped off from the helicopter in mid-air.
Harvey narrowed his eyes as he looked at Lanny. There was only disdain in his eyes. "You said that you're doing everything by your law… But in truth, you simply want to make things worse. Despite looking like an agent of justice right now, what is happening right now is what you wanted the most."I'm the representative of Country H Martial Arts Alliance, which makes me the mayor of Grand City in name. Whether you want to interrogate or set me up, all of you must consider the consequences of your actions. But what if I was the one that did it first? That would give you a reason to attack me, right?"I have to admit that it indeed worked in your favor, Lanny. But it also showed me the truth about Grand City! Rules and laws that have existed since ancient times? All of them were jokes and excuses!"Blade listened to Harvey with a dark expression, as if his beliefs were challenged. Meanwhile, Lanny remained calm. She breathed deeply and gave a cold reply, "Stop wasting your breath, Ha
All of Clarion's men exchanged looks. They did not want to but had no choice but to retreat. It was obvious that they could not simply watch Neve die like that. Harvey quickly motioned to Mandy, signaling for her to exit with her.Shortly after, they arrived at an empty space on the surface. An armed helicopter was waiting there. They had moved it here from somewhere, and it was also warmed up. Harvey took Neve hostage and was going to bring Mandy up into the helicopter.But before they could get any closer, hundreds of men and women in uniform appeared and surrounded them. They were all armed with weapons such as Rainstorm Needles and Royal Flushes, specially designed against martial arts masters. If they were used, the damage they could cause would be devastating."Do you really think you can escape, Harvey?" Lanny walked out from behind the crowd."I've indeed prepared a helicopter for you, but do you dare to go up? If you do, we have plenty of weapons to take it down so you can
Blade's expression turned extremely dark when he heard what Harvey had said. For someone like him, who had obeyed the laws of Grand City all his life, what Harvey had said was a hard pill to swallow. The point was that Harvey was right.While what happened looked like a coincidence, it resulted from Lanny's deliberate neglect. Was it not a joke for them to want Harvey to follow the rules when they themselves broke the rule first?However, Neve did not seem like she was threatened at all. She was already in a state of crazed fury, and she smiled. "You killed my fiance and then slapped me? Do you think you can leave just like this? Dream on! Even if I had to die today, I'll drag you down into the grave with me!"Crack!Harvey tightened his grip and snapped Neve's right arm. Then, he took the Rainstorm Needles and aimed them at Neve's head again. This simple action showed Harvey's determination.Neve almost let out a scream of pain as she could not stop shuddering from the pain of he
Neve, Lanny, and the others figured that once they captured Mandy, they would have it in the bag. They could do whatever they wanted to Harvey. However, they did not expect Harvey to respond with such fierceness."How dare you, Harvey!" After a moment of silence, Clarion finally reacted to what had happened. And as he waved his hand, everyone around him immediately rushed over. All of them raised the Rainstorm Needles in their hands, aiming at Harvey. It was as if they would turn Harvey into a beehive if he dared to make another move."How dare you touch me? Even my dad never hit me! You have a death wish! You're just a powerless representative! Even if you do have power, your demise is already determined after what you did openly just now!" Neve's face became twisted with anger."I might not be able to do anything to you if you don't touch me, but now that you did, no one in this world can protect you!" There was a crazed look on Neve's face. Obviously, she believed that Harvey wou
After Neve made her orders, all the men and women beside her revealed what was under their sleeves. They were all wearing the martial art weapons, the Rainstorm Needles. This was something ten times better than guns when targeting martial artists.However, Harvey ignored all of them and continued moving forward. He exclaimed coldly, "Stop! If any of you are going to continue to attack Mandy, I'm going to cripple you!"Neve gave an icy smirk. There was only disdain on her face as she narrowed her eyes at Harvey. "Who do you think you are, Harvey? Do you think you're in a position to make me stop just by telling me? Are you having heartaches for her? I'm going to hurt her right before you now!"Neve kicked Mandy to the ground and then stomped on her stomach. "You witch! Witch! Let's see who can stop you tonight! Durandal is already dead, and I don't want to live anymore! I'm not going to stop until you're dead!"Then, Neve revealed the Rainstorm Needles under her sleeves and put them
