“He’s Master York of the Fortune Hall?!”“All of Golden Sands know about this man! What? Does he have a grudge against the Faceless Group or something?”“There’s no way! Everyone knows that Master York’s a kind man!”“He has too much confidence!”“He thinks he can disrespect the Faceless Group with the little connection he garnered out of his customers?”“That’s impossible! The Faceless Group has authority in both the government and the underworld! Ordinary people wouldn’t be able to go against such a force!”The crowd of guests were gossiping up a storm.They were shocked after recognizing Harvey York, but they could not fathom a mere geomancy expert would be able to threaten Nameless.More importantly, Harvey was probably nowhere to be found when the Faceless Group was creating their empire.Safe to say that the two were like night and day!The guests backed off to where they thought it was safe to watch the show, determined to see it through to the end.A few young and be
“Oh! Master York!“Bold words!A woman beside Nameless walked forward with her arms crossed before disdainfully pointing at Harvey York with her nose.“Don’t you see how naive you are saying something like this before Young Master Nameless?“The Faceless Group is a billion-dollar corporation!“If Young Master Nameless wants to, he can crush you with a single finger!“Do you want to raze the Faceless Group to the ground? With what? Your mouth?“Or are you going to curse the people to death instead?“You’re just a geomancy expert! What’s the point of pretending anymore?The woman let out a chuckle.“Let me give you some advice, con man! Stop embarrassing yourself in a high-class venue like this! Go fool people somewhere else!“You have no right to go against Young Master Nameless after all!“I don’t know what happened, but you should just offer your woman now that he’s interested in her! Do you understand me?!“People like us don’t even have a chance to serve him!“Now, kne
Nameless showed a calm expression, as if he could take on the entire world.The people around were completely infatuated by the handsomeness. Even top-rated prominent figures like Maisie Xavier and Kensley Quinlan could not help but steal a few glances at him.After all, they did not like Nameless’ rogue attitude and aura, but his manliness was just off the charts at that very moment.“Harvey,” said Nameless while squinting with a smile.“You come all the way here to cause trouble. You beat up my security team and even harmed the guests I invited.“Do you understand what you just did?“Are you sure you can bear the consequences for doing something like that?”A lot of people were looking at Harvey with faint smiles.Sure, Harvey seemed like a fierce man, slapping people around without a care for the world…But the Faceless Group was not just an ordinary corporation. The title alone could break the backbones of countless people, based on their background and strength.No matte
Nameless wiped his face and froze momentarily before showing a stern smile.“You hit me?“You bastard!“Are you out of your mind?!“How dare you hit me?!“Who gave you the nerve?!”Slap!Harvey York swung the back of his palm forward without wasting any time.“Are you a child or an amateur, Nameless?“So what if I hit you?“You, of all people, should know what you’ve done.“If you have time to yap, you should be figuring out how to make it up to me instead.“It’s already been thirty seconds.”Harvey had no patience to toy with Nameless whenever Mandy Zimmer was involved.The Hermit Families and the Patel family had been doing their best to look for Mandy, but Harvey was still worried.He needed to make sure that Mandy was safe.His slap was no different compared to the previous dozen.Not only did he want to trample on Nameless’ pride and dignity, but he also wanted the Faceless Group to suffer the same fate.The wretched and hateful look on Nameless could not be hidd
Ryohei Kubota seemed arrogant when he spoke.“With the Abito Way’s swordsmanship, I will never sheathe my sword until it tastes blood!“Countless so-called experts from Country H have fallen to my blade!“I wouldn’t even unsheathe for someone like you!“Kneel!“Stop struggling!”Ryohei felt prideful. He had always been crushing his opponents, making him feel like he was actually invincible.Even with Harvey York’s show of strength, Ryohei felt confident enough to defeat anyone as long as Julian York was not around.“Is that so?Harvey smiled.“Who’s Shuji Kubota to you?”“He’s my brother! We are the most outstanding disciples of the Abito Way! We…” he pridefully replied.“You’re even more useless than him.”Harvey stomped on the ground, immediately cutting off Ryohei’s reply.Crack!A tile flew out in a flash. Ryohei’s expression changed. He instinctively tried to unsheathe his longsword.But the moment he did, his pupils expanded when he stood frozen in place.In his
“Hate?”Kensley Quinlan smiled.“Do you think he has the right for me to do that?“I just think that everything he does is just too ingenuous!“It doesn’t matter if Nameless kidnapped his wife or not! He’s not even showing the right attitude to beg!“Look at his arrogant face! People who are uninformed might just think that he’s the king of the city!“Even the Patel family wouldn’t act this high and mighty!“Only the John family is allowed to act like this!”Blaine John smiled faintly.“Don’t say that, Kensley. The John family has always been discreet.“Us being kings of Golden Sands are just hearsay.”Blaine could not help but show a playful gaze when looking at Harvey.“You’re pretty impressive, kid!Nameless finally got out of his shock when he squinted at Harvey with a hint of playfulness.“I thought that you only dared to show off in front of me because of Julian York’s support!“Looks like you’re at least on par with him after all!“You’re probably his support, ri
Legend said that in order to train in the Abito Way’s secret sword art, the Phantom Blade Kenshi had been secluding himself in the Death Forest for ten whole years.The moment he came out, his blade could split a waterfall in half.Strength like that couldn’t be obtained by any ordinary person.It was also said that he was the most outstanding candidate from the younger generation to become a God of War. People like him were extremely rare!If the Abito Way wasn’t humiliated by Country H, and if Faceless didn’t spend a lot of effort to bring him here…He wouldn’t have shown his face to the public until he became a God of War.Blaine would always respect a person of that caliber. He held his glass at Kenshi from afar, as a toast for the latter.Kenshi gave Blaine a curt nod before looking at Harvey again. He naturally knew Blaine’s position in the top-rated circle.“End your own life. For the sake of our countries, I’ll give you one last chance to save your dignity. If you wai
Swoosh!Kenshi pressed his long sword. He lunged toward Harvey, swinging at right at the latter. His blade moved quickly, like a phantom. The crowd cheered in shock and awe at Kenshi’s swordsmanship.Even Blaine and his cohorts stared at Kenshi’s back respectfully, their expressions no longer playful or mocking. The strong would always garner respect wherever they went.Seeing Kenshi charge at him, Harvey calmly flicked his finger. Clang!His finger landed on Kenshi’s blade. At that moment, thunder seemed to strike. Kenshi backed up as quickly as he came.His entire body shook after Harvey flicked his blade. He quickly skidded backward; his feet leaving two trails on the ground.He looked at Harvey, filled with disbelief.He had only used thirty percent of his power, but he was certain that even with that amount, Harvey wouldn’t be able to defend against his attack.And yet, the exact opposite happened—Harvey blocked his attack so casually.Kenshi’s understanding of th
Durandal and his men froze when they saw what happened, and their expressions darkened. While that long-haired man was frivolous, he was also a martial arts master.Before they could even react, Harvey had already snapped off the man's finger and fed it to the dog. That action was enough to stop Durandal and the others in their tracks, and even managed to silence the angry crowd.No one expected a man called a pretty face to be so brutal and decisive. At that moment, the men from Parkerville could feel the coldness radiating from Harvey. They couldn't stop the fear spreading in their heart."Darn it! How dare you hurt him?!""Do you have a death wish?""We're going to destroy your underground arena!"Everyone from Parkerville was filled with fury, wanting to retaliate. However, Harvey's calm expression was enough to scare them into silence. Durandal, the only person who knew Harvey's real identity, raised his hand to stop them. Then, he shot Harvey a cold look."What is the
"I believe someone outside the ring informed the young boxer. In short, this is no longer a one-versus-one battle! This is two versus one… No, perhaps even more! This isn't fair!"And then, Durandal raised his arm and shouted, "Tell me, friends! Is it against the rule for someone to use a high-tech method to instruct the young fighter in the middle of the match? Should they pay for all our losses?"While no one knew how Durandal could be so sure there was cheating involved, many saw that there was a chance for them to recover their losses. They knew who to support. All of them stood up and started yelling."Cheating! You're cheating!""Pay us! Pay us back!"Durandal continued to raise his arm. "We've already won this battle! However, the underground boxing ring was unable to accept their loss! Other than making them admit it, shouldn't we ask them to pay three times the money?!"All the spectators were excited and chorused brainlessly, "Three times! Three times!"They didn't car
As the Boxing Champion coughed out a mouthful of blood, it seemed to have caused a chain reaction. The blood vessels in his body began to bulge and explode, and blood began to flow out from his body. It was quite terrifying to watch, but from his bloodshot eyes, he seemed to have recovered some sort of clarity.He glared at the young fighter in front of him and collapsed on the ring, his eyes filled with disbelief."Ha… Didn't even break a sweat." The young fighter raised his hand, disdain on his face. His expression was calm, but everyone could see his arrogance."How is that possible?!" At that moment, there was only silence. No one expected the situation would change so quickly. The Boxing Champion had been defeated so quickly, many weren't sure what had happened. This had surpassed everyone's understanding.No matter if the audience was furious or in disbelief, the Boxing Champion had already fallen and the young fighter stood in the middle of the ring with a calm express
Everyone was still filled with mixed expressions as both sides clashed. To the Boxing Champion, he had already won countless fights. There was no need for him to be afraid of a young man.Meanwhile, the young fighter had great confidence. Nothing could shake him.The moment both sides clashed, dust and dirt burst from the floor. Everyone was shocked by their murderous intent.Their fists met. At that instant, they fought in the most brutal and primal way. They kept crashing into each other as they battled. The muted sounds of their attacks could be heard from outside the ring. The ring, though made of solid wood, began to crack open from the impact of their attacks. Everyone watched with bated breath, excitement etched on their faces. No one expected that the young man who looked like he was going to get beaten down in one punch would have so much endurance.It was way too thrilling! Too exciting!The two moved faster and faster. Very quickly, normal people couldn't even see h
When Harvey heard Mandy's agreement to his plan to close down the place, he immediately snapped his finger. A young man smaller and leaner than the Boxing Champion slowly walked out from the back.He wasn't surrounded by a malevolent aura like the Boxing Champion, and he didn't beat his chest like a drum either. He simply waved his hand around in a dull way, like he was only doing this as part of his job. When the spectators saw this, all of them booed.When some of the spectators who were hoping for a chance to turn their luck around saw this, they couldn't help but start to curse.What was the Ninth Branch doing?Why did they pull out a kid like this?Were they getting him killed?Meanwhile, Durandal and the others all glanced at each other before cackling madly. They were all from the Sacred Training Grounds, so they could see the young man was indeed someone special. But no matter how special he was, the difference in power couldn't be so easily overcome.There was only one
One hour later, Harvey once again appeared at the VIP seats. Durandal and the others had been waiting for them. When they saw Harvey appear, they grinned. "One hour is over, pretty boy. Can we start the battle now? Looking at how confident you are, maybe you should consider fighting yourself. If you're willing, I can tell the Boxing Champion to just use one arm."It was obvious that not only did Durandal want to use this chance to test Harvey's power, but he also wanted to get him killed.Harvey smiled. "There's no need for overwhelming firepower. Even your father couldn't make me fight him, let alone your underling."Durandal's eyes turned incredibly cold when he heard that. Just as the atmosphere in the VIP seats was becoming fired up, the atmosphere around the ring was also becoming more tense.They hadn't even fought yet, but both sides were already staring down at each other apprehensively. It would be quite intense once the fight really began.Very quickly, Durandal took a
Harvey ignored all of them, but simply looked at all the fighters. In the end, Harvey's eyes fell on a young man of about eighteen years old. It was obvious he had just come of age, and he had trained his body well. From his physique, Harvey could tell that his martial arts abilities were quite good too.Harvey could tell immediately that the young man probably had an extraordinary upbringing to have such power at such an age. He might be a core student who came out from a Sacred Training Ground to train.Most importantly, the other fighters either looked at Harvey warily or in envy. Only he looked at Harvey peacefully, as if everyone in this world were ordinary people.Harvey gave Maya a look, and Maya quickly introduced him. "Sir, this is a servant that a member of the Ninth Branch picked up from under the bridge. He's mute, but he's extremely loyal. When we realized he has great talent in martial arts, we decided to turn him into a fighter."Harvey narrowed his eyes. What kind
Maya was slightly stunned. However, she had always been very trusting of Harvey. She didn't say anything and quickly prepared the contract.When Durandal saw what was happening, he smiled coldly and immediately signed his name.Just as Harvey was going to sign his name, Mandy's expression turned dark and said, "Harvey, why don't we bet my hand? This is a Ninth Branch affair. It didn't have much to do with you in the first place."Harvey could sense Mandy cared about him and smiled. "Don't worry, I'll be fine. Not to mention, certain things are unavoidable. You and the Ninth Branch are simply taking hits on my behalf. Trust me, I can manage this."Mandy hesitated a little and wanted to say something, but before she could, Durandal already said coldly, "Enough with the mushy nonsense. If you can't take a wager like this, I'm more than happy to let you both lick my boots a hundred times. After that, we'll call it even!"Harvey patted Mandy's shoulder and picked up the pen to sign his
"Your underlings are either Boxing Champions or Sword Champions. While they all sounded terrifying and their names quite stylish, and sound like they can defeat everyone that stands before them…" Harvey began coolly."Everything you did is so you can take all of the Ninth Branch's money, isn't it? If that's the case, why waste everyone's time? Let's do it decisively. We'll settle everything in one go. Of course, if you're scared, you can tell me too. I won't force you."Harvey shook his head and looked at Mandy. "This is boring, Mandy. Let's go, he's just a coward. I wonder where this spoiled brat comes from? He's scared of getting smacked by his own hand if he loses a few pennies. There's no need to waste time with people like this."When Mandy heard it, she said, "That's right. There's no need to waste time with rubbish."Durandal smiled coldly when he heard how they were mocking him. "No need for such sarcasm. I'm telling you right now, I'm not afraid of playing a game like th
