“According to the information we have, Faceless is still secluding himself abroad.“Apparently, he’s still trying to become a God of War and hasn’t come back because of that.“He did call three of the Celestial Temple’s Rakshasa Monks to Golden Sands. Not only are they Kshatriyas of India, but they also studied under one of the Three Great Monks, Julio Garcia.“After he defeated Dean Cobb, the South Sea’s God of War, his name spread far and wide. His disciples are naturally no pushovers while they’re riding his momentum.“I suspect that these Rakshasa Monks are leagues above the top fighters of the Island Nations’s younger generation, too. “These people stayed in Nameless’s manor as soon as they arrived. They might have received a price on their deal by now.“Other than that, the Abito Way has been taking action as well. Some of Matsuda’s associates from the same school have terrifying strength and skill. “Their swordsmanship is nothing short of immaculate.“These people have
Harvey shook his head.“You don’t have to. You’re in a deeper mess than I am. I can take care of myself.”Kairi smiled.“My dear Sir York, this isn’t about needing to do things. This is about our attitude.“Our enemies will naturally wait and see our reaction after leaking such information.“Do you think they’d come for you that easily if we didn’t send anyone for your protection?“They’ll only take action if they’re confident in completing the mission, despite the difficulty we set up.“If they see that it’s too easy to get to you, they might think we’re setting up a trap. If that’s the case, they might not proceed with their plan.”Harvey was completely speechless.“You’re just trying to use me as bait at the end of the day, right?”Kairi blinked.“What are you saying, Sir York?” she asked gently.“I’m sending my trusted subordinates to you for your sake!“The Patel family asked Heaven’s Gate to bring up a group of expert fighters, too.“We spent a lot of money to get g
The next day, everything went on as usual. A hundred number plates were handed out to the customers.With Harvey’s lead, work went on at a steady pace.When it was dinnertime, Leona got off from work and prepared a meal for Harvey.She was cooking roasted chicken, using a recipe that recently blew up on the internet. Aside from the freshness of the meat, the taste felt quite like an old home.For someone like Leona, who grew up in a city since childhood, making this was a rare experience.Harvey had experienced quite a bit; he had already tasted all sorts of things in his life. While he was leaning on his chair with a smile, he’d occasionally give pointers for Leona to improve.Kellan, Cliff, and the others went somewhere else to have their meal, as if they were giving Harvey and Leona space. Even Julian was dragged out of the place.Harvey could only smiled bitterly against such a plan.The others must’ve known about his divorce. That was why they were trying to help.Even so
The gentleman froze before he let out a cold chuckle.“Not bad, kid. You’re pretty smart.“Then again, you should know that smart people usually die quickly…“You know too much. You have no other choice but to die.”The gentleman squinted around him.He thought Harvey York had already set up an ambush, but he was only sitting still while waiting for his demise.Thank goodness for him.“I know quite a bit…“But I’ve never been one to seek death.Harvey steadily wrote something on the piece of paper…“Through all the ups and downs, the sun will still rise nonetheless.”Those words were filled with a hint of malice and endless dignity. A single glance would stupefy any ordinary person.“Keep pretending!The gentleman was filled with disdain after seeing Harvey’s actions.“There’s only one thing left for you to write, your damn will!“How will you write it?“I should remind you! You should just donate your stuff to an orphanage!“Young Master Nameless will come for your en
“Call the cops?!The gentleman sized up Leona Foley before letting out a cold chuckle.“You’re just a little b*tch who can do nothing but seduce the men around you!“Call the cops then if you want!“I’ll chop my head off just for you if the cops even do your bidding!“Do you think I’d just show up without preparing myself?!“Beautiful women like you really are stupid, huh?!“Useless filth!”The gentleman started cackling.Leona showed a horrible expression when she turned on her phone while gritting her teeth.She realized there was no signal around the place.Naturally, those people had already jammed the signal before showing up.They had made every single preparation they could.After seeing Leona’s despaired look, the gentleman spotted a smile as he waved his hand.“We don’t have that much time!“Send them their way!”Almost a hundred men slowly unsheathed their swords simultaneously.They took small steps as they inched closer, mustering their energy while showing
The gentleman frowned at the sight.“It’s just an illusion! Don’t be scared! Go!“Kill them! They’re finished!”A few men leaped in the air while gritting their teeth.Leona Foley frowned when she flicked the cinnabar in the air.Fwoom!The air lit up in flames. The men who pounced forward were horrified by the sight before they were completely blinded. They were wailing in pain nonstop when they crashed onto the ground.Before the others reacted, Leona quickly became accustomed to the situation. She quickly waved her cinnabar in the air again, conjuring a flame wall.“Aaagh!”A dozen men were trapped by the wall. They were rolling on the ground while screaming, hoping to extinguish the fire caught on them.In just a few seconds, the place was a giant mess.Bam!The gentleman’s expression instantly changed when he saw a piece of paper flying right toward his face. He retreated as quickly as he could before falling flat on his face.What a miserable sight.There were only
The others also quickly pulled out their hunting firearms with fierce gazes.Naturally, they did not want to use such weapons if they could…But they would not mind filling Harvey York with holes since he wanted to die so badly!“Do it!”The gentleman waved his hand and gave the order. He could not be bothered to spout any more nonsense.The look on his face was as pompous as it could have gotten.Swoosh swoosh swoosh!Howling winds were heard outside at this very moment.The men’s throats, hearts, and other spots on the men were blood red.They all fell to the ground, with resentment on their faces.Some of them were struggling on the ground but to no avail.The men were all incapacitated!In under a minute, the killers that the gentleman brought were all done for!The gentleman’s eyes were twitching constantly. He instinctively looked back, trying to figure out what happened.Dozens of figures could be seen standing on the walls.A twenty-seven-year-old woman with a pr
Then, Aliya Patel shifted her gaze of disgust at Harvey York and Leona Foley.The two managed to deal with a lot of the men…But in her mind, using underhanded tactics was utterly unacceptable.A true expert would crush their opponents with sheer might!After all, tricks and schemes are nothing compared to that!The moment Harvey even did something like that, Aliya’s mind had already settled.She clicked her tongue. Her intention was clear.If it were not for Kairi Patel, Harvey would not have the right to be protected by her.That said, Harvey did not mind at all after seeing the look on her face.After all, Kairi already said that this was just to set up bait.It was good that Aliya acted this way because of it.At the same time, Harvey curiously looked at the roof of the place. A hint of murderous intent was neatly hidden in that direction, but it still could not escape him.He casually started to write again without saying a word.Leona quickly came to her senses befor
"Enough. There's no point staying here. This place is cold and lifeless. Let's return to Wolsing. We can have something hot together. I also have something I want to talk with you about," Samuel said as he patted Harvey's shoulder. Then, Samuel wanted to take Harvey with him."Nah," Harvey suddenly said. "I need to send Mandy back home first. Maybe over a cup of tea with milk to warm her body and stop her from shaking. We can go out another time."Everyone was stunned after they heard what Harvey had just said. How could Harvey reject an invitation from someone important like Samuel? Just… Who was he?But before they could even recover, Neve suddenly grabbed a hand crossbow from one of her followers and pointed it toward Harvey. It was clear that she was still upset. The madness on her face was tinged by vengefulness and pain as she shouted, "I know you're more important than any of us, Mr. Samuel! I know someone like you can ignore all the laws in this world! But where's justice in
It was obvious that Lanny had no choice but to say that. Since if she did not do that, not only would she ruin the Bennett family's reputation, but the entire Grand City's reputation would also be tarnished.""Oh, right. You're called Lanny? And you're threatening me with your predecessor? Are you from White Peak by any chance?" Samuel asked curiously.Lanny gritted her teeth and replied, "That's right. I'm from White Peak, one of the Seven Families of Grand City."Samuel smirked and said, "I have dueled Ares Bennett three times, and he lost to me three times. If I wanted to, I could have slain him immediately the last time if I wanted to. That's why Ares has to call me Mr. Samuel whenever he sees me on the street and listens to me. You're just a greenhorn from White Peak… And you're pretending to be something special before me?"Samuel did not bother showing Lanny any respect. "Not to mention, everyone here has a good head on their shoulders. What really happened and what the trut
"It's all a misunderstanding, Mr. Samuel!" said Lanny with a darkened expression."But just now, I heard something about fighting to the last man, and there were so many weapons being used here that were targeted against martial artists. Are you telling me there's a misunderstanding? Do I look like a fool?" Samuel gave a cold smile and waved his hand.A formless wave of energy instantly rolled against Lanny's men. Lanny and the others were shocked and used everything they could to block this attack, which took them by surprise.But it was useless.In just an instant, all the Grand City's youths did everything they could, but all of them had to take three steps back as they coughed out a mouthful of blood.Some distance away, some men with longbows and crossbows also grunted as they fell to the ground.In just a simple attack, the Forbidden Wasteland's defenses instantly crumbled.Perhaps this was what they meant by invincibility.No one from Grand City dared stand beside Harvey
The man who came wore a white robe with a cold expression. He looked around and spoke clearly, "I heard someone say my young master has committed murder. I'm here to see if any evidence and witnesses are saying so. If I find any of them are fake, I'll slay those and their families who claim so!"He said it casually, like an old man making a comment while sweeping the streets. However, everyone here could feel their heart skipping a beat.There was only silence.Even Ethan's gaze froze for a moment. That was because he sensed an aura from the old man, which was extremely close to the chief instructor.He was an elite!As for the rest of those from Grand City, they were all stunned. The old man was able to hover in the air. This could only be done when one had become one with nature! Could it be that other elites who were not from the Grand City had reached the same level?Even Lanny, who boasted that a great power supported her, could not help but watch, her expression pale and in
"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
