“Is that so?“Why are you so sure I’ll let you go after this, anyway?”Harvey sent her a profound smile.“You… You’d dare?! If anything happens to me, Young Master John and Young Master Wright will never let you go!” Ensley roared before turning around.She felt a little frightened; Harvey’s eyes made her realize that he was more than capable of taking her out.When she arrived at the parking lot, she quickly pulled out her phone, planning to report the incident to Blaine.She was holding her phone as she drove. Reaching a crossroad a mile away from the parking lot, a truck filled with gas canisters suddenly charged forward, crashing right into her car.Boom!The canisters blew up—disbelief was written all over Ensley’s face as flames engulfed her.…Ensley wasn’t dead.However, she was unconscious and heavily injured when she was sent to the hospital.She was lucky—she managed to get out of danger, but she was destined to be a vegetable for the rest of her life.And yet,
“Besides…“You just crippled Jakai! Actually, I’d applaud you if you kill him!“That old fox had been doing whatever he pleases because of his status as an outer elder, and the number of disciples he has.“Not only did he let his daughter marry an Islander, but he even turned his back on the country for them.“The sacred martial arts training grounds find him utterly shameful.“If it weren’t for all those stupid rules we have, I would’ve crippled him myself already!”Quill didn’t have a good impression of Jakai at all. He chuckled coldly, as if the situation didn’t matter to him.“I should be thanking you instead.“That old b*stard only came to take my authority away.“There are too many Islanders here. There are a lot of benefits to side with them, too. That was why Jakai planned to support the Island Nations using the Golden Sands’s Heaven’s Gate branch.“Simply put, I would’ve been killed if you didn’t cripple him!“Judging from this, I owe you!”Harvey froze, then smile
“Should we just give him a chance to plot against us?“You must be joking, Harvey!“He’s a peak King of Arms! You’re already showing a lot of respect by keeping that man alive!“You don’t need to worry about this at all.“You should just focus on not getting killed by his disciples.“As for the so-called pressure, I can handle it easily.”It was a big incident, yet Quill wrote it off without a care in the world. It looked as if he could deal with the situation with ease if he really wanted to.“I’ll leave it up to you, then. Thank you for that.“That said, I have to tell you something.“If you get hurt because of this…“I’ll destroy Heaven’s Gate myself.”Harvey smiled; his casual words were filled with murderous intent. Quill froze, then looked deep into Harvey’s eyes.“You reassured me, telling me I wasn’t being hasty to pick a side.“Well, the situation won’t get to that point!“Don’t you worry!”Quill laughed while clapping his hands.“Come, now! Let’s not talk abou
Ding!At this moment, Darwin’s phone suddenly rang.The ear-piercing ringtone broke the silence of the night, startling Darwin and the higher-ups.Darwin haphazardly answered the call, and placed the phone beside his ear. His eyes twitched, and the phone soon fell to the ground.Quill glanced calmly at him. “What’s the matter?”Darwin’s face turned slightly pale. “Jakai’s dead…” he replied, trembling. ‘Dead?!’A few simple words were enough to silence everyone. Everyone held their breath—the whole place was emerged in pin-drop silence. The higher-ups suddenly looked as if they had been rotting in the ground for three whole days.Quill, on the other hand, casually held his cup, his arms crossed. “Chaos is coming to the Golden Sands…”…Early the next morning, Harvey glanced at his phone as soon as he woke up. He saw dozens of phone calls on his screen.Harvey calmly called a few of them back, and soon found out about Jakai’s death.He then called Soren to make sense
Soren was speechless.Jakai was a prominent figure. Heaven’s Gate supporting him was no easy opponent to deal with, either. More importantly, he had deep connections with the Island Nations. The Islanders would surely use this opportunity to cause an uproar.Simply put, Golden Sands was in deep trouble.Soren and the entire Braff family would definitely suffer a lot of pressure soon enough.He had received a phone call from Wolsing this morning, telling him to solve the case as soon as possible so the people from the Island Nations or Heaven’s Gate wouldn’t get a chance to take action.“I looked into the situation, Sir York. This old bastard had quite a lot of enemies!“Some of them are peak Kings of Arms, too. They’re fully capable of killing Jakai with one hit.“That said, they all have alibis to prove that they had no time to assassinate him in the first place.“Besides, they aren’t so quick as to be able to do this immediately after hearing about Jakai getting crippled.“I
“They also know about my relationship with Quill.“I’d get in trouble if Jakai died, and Quill would surely stand up for me.“With his protection, the six Hermit Families would probably be dragged into the situation too, since they’re always together.“With that, all of Golden Sands’s forces would have no choice but to go against the Heaven’s Gate and the Island Nations.“The culprit’s mission would be complete after that.”Harvey looked thoughtful. “The culprit’s goal isn’t to kill Jakai or me.“They’re planning to enter the game.“With a strong impact, of course.“There can only be one person with such methods and timing…”Darwin and Soren locked eyes; they didn’t think that Harvey had already figured out this much.“Who is it?” Soren asked after a short moment.“Faceless of Evermore,” Harvey replied.Darwin and Soren shivered, and their faces turned dark. It was only a speculation and there was no solid proof, but it was highly probable that Faceless was actually behin
“If that wasn’t the case, a thousand of you would be no match against my father!”Monica’s face was frost. “Alright, enough talk!“Kneel and break every single one of your limbs, then castrate yourself!“After that, stay with my father’s grave for a whole week!“I’ll decide how to deal with you when my husband’s back!”Monica had an arrogant expression, as if she was convinced Harvey had no choice but to obey her every single order.Her companions were all screaming fiercely at Harvey, desperately wanting to tear him apart.The Nobita family, with their aristocratic titles, would usually act high and mighty. When had they given in before?When did anyone dare go against them?And yet, a mere man from Country H crippled their young master, then killed their mistress’s father!What a joke!Harvey waved his hand to stop Soren and Darwin, then glanced at Monica with a small smile.“You’d rather become traitors of your own country than be an honest person? You want me to bre
Monica was infuriated to see Harvey’s dismissive attitude.Her beautiful eyes narrowed as she glared at Harvey.“You’ve angered me, Harvey!” she exclaimed furiously. “You’ll end up horribly for this!”Monica took a step forward and put her hand on her long sword, ready to unsheathe it at any moment.“Don’t do anything reckless, Monica!”Shay stepped up, looking awful. “We don’t even know how Jakai died yet! Can you take responsibility for causing Sir York this much trouble? Do you even have proof?!”“Proof?”Monica chuckled coldly; she didn’t care to show Shay any face at all.“When did you people get the right to talk back to me?“Let me tell you something!“Nobody can keep Harvey safe today!“He’s destined to be crippled!”Naturally, Monica believed that she had already given Harvey a chance to atone by breaking his own limbs. Had he done so, he could least survive a few more days.Not only did Harvey not cherish the opportunity, but he also disobeyed her completely. A
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
