“Not just Golden Sands, even people from Mordu and Wolsing have to pay their respects to someone of this status.“I have to admit, you are quite capable. It’s hard for an ordinary man to achieve all this in such a short time.”Mandy Zimmer froze. She did not expect Harvey York had already made so much progress after coming to the city.Aunt Witby and Elodie Jean looked at each other. They completely looked down on Harvey, but Harvey seemed extremely impressive based on Blaine’s compliments alone…Or at least, he was better than the average person.Lilian Yates showed an odd expression. She had an idea as to how capable Harvey was.Then again, she did not expect he would be this resourceful after coming to the Golden Sands.Since Lilian naturally disdained Harvey, she still could not help but feel disgusted after hearing Blaine complimenting him.“A man like Harvey has no right to be compared to you, Young Master John!“His connections are nothing! You were born into a top-rate
Harvey York kept sipping his tea without replying.He was about to leave after he was done.What was there to talk about when Blaine John had only been boasting about his strength the entire time?He could not be bothered to listen any longer.Elodie Jean, on the other hand, felt curious.“Who are those people, Young Master John?”The others were interested as well. They wanted to know what kind of people would let such a prominent figure be this humble.“The first man had single-handedly defeated the five strongest countries, creating the legendary Sword Camp at a very young age!“Then, he established billion-dollar corporations abroad, raising the country to the world’s peak himself!“More importantly, he disappeared during his peak, leaving only a legend behind!“It’s said that he’d definitely become the next elder of the military force if he didn’t!“He’d have the right to compete against Young Master Wright and the Big Boss for the highest position many years later!”B
“He took the crown with his own hands!“He’s a hero!”Blaine John showed peerless admiration.“I wonder which one out of the three you know, Master York?”Aunt Witby and Elodie Jean disdainfully glared at Harvey York with their arms crossed.‘That’s right! You must’ve never heard of those people before, have you?’Lilian Yates, Mandy Zimmer, and Simon Zimmer looked at each other with odd expressions. They wanted to say something, but they simply could not…If they remembered correctly…Prince York…Blaine showed a faint smile when they looked at Harvey.“I wonder if you have opinions about the people I’m talking about.“Right. Two out of these three have the same surname as you.“I wonder why there’s this much of a gap between you and them…”Blaine picked a glass on the table.In his eyes, Harvey had no right to be on the same level as him.“What a conversation, Young Master John! I’ve learned a lot!Harvey smiled.“But I’m curious. What’s the point of you talking abou
“You know? What do you know?” Mandy replied angrily.“Blaine’s the young master of the John family!“He’s also Emery’s sworn brother! They’re really close!“Do you know who that is?“That’s the big boss’s son! If we’re in ancient times, then he’s a literal prince!“You’re going against someone like that, and you tell me that you know?!”Harvey shot her a playful smile. “The Braided Dynasty’s been dead for hundreds of years by now. That man’s no prince.”“Even if we don’t talk about that, don’t you know that the John family’s the only top-rated family in the entire city?”Mandy was infuriated.“Even your Kairi had difficulty dealing with the John family! You don’t actually think that you can go against them, can you?”Harvey smiled; right as he was about to say something, a horn could be heard not far away.The horn had always been the symbol of starting a war. The horrifying sound would make anyone freeze in fear.Harvey instinctively turned around.A group of people was s
The man with the horn froze upon realizing that the truth of the corpses was exposed. He started playing the horn faster.The corpses pounced right at Harvey.“The same trick won’t work twice.”Harvey stepped on a tile on the ground.Crack!It shattered into pieces, flying all over the place. The shards lodged right into the corpses’ throats.Small worms, invisible to the naked eye, started exploding.At the same time, the roaring corpses instantly went limp before falling to the ground, as if they had lost all strength.Harvey glared coldly at the man with the horn.Looking closely, he was the robed man with golden-rimmed glasses who followed around Cedric, constantly ridiculing Harvey.The man looked at the corpses lying all over the ground, his face a horrible expression.“Bastard! How dare you take out Young Master Cedric’s Iron Corpses?! Do you have a death wish?”The man twisted the bell of the horn, and a flurry of blue needles flew right at Harvey.Harvey narrowed
An hour later, at Golden Sands People’s Hospital.Harvey paced outside the emergency room with a stern expression, occasionally looking at the bright light at the entrance. He didn’t say a single word, nor did he try to rush anyone.Corpse Poison from the Seed Frontier was vicious. Harvey managed to seal Mandy’s arteries while also forcing most of the poison out of her body, but…Since she was just an ordinary person who took too much shock, she needed to be treated in the hospital.Mandy was probably safe, but he was still worried.He knew that if this wasn’t handled properly, there was a chance that Mandy would be crippled the rest of her life.“What happened here, you bastard?!“She was sent into the emergency room as soon as you took her away!“What did you do to her?!”Around half an hour later, Lilian and the rest of the Zimmers rushed all the way there.Before she tried to understand the big picture, Lilian was already blatantly insulting Harvey as soon as she saw him.
“That’s impossible,” Harvey replied.“I can assure you, Blaine’s involved. Your dear son-in-law’s trying to kill your daughter.”Lilian frowned, as if she was thinking of the possibility…But Aunt Witby burst in anger after hearing those words.“You’re trash! You’re insulting all the good people you’ve done heinous things to?!“Who do you think you are? How dare you slander Young Master John’s name!“Do you know who he is?“He’s the young master of the country’s top-rated circle! He’s a gentle and personable man who loves doing charity!“Have you no shame to slander such a man?!”Aunt Witby was infuriated.“This is Golden Sands! Do you know just how much trouble you’ll get yourself into for saying things like that?”“I don’t know about that,” Harvey replied. “I only know that everyone who did this to Mandy will pay!”Harvey suspected that Cedric did this out of jealousy, but…He could tell that the man with the golden-rimmed glasses had never laid hands on Mandy.This mea
Harvey went to Fortune Hall after leaving the hospital.Right as he entered, Darwin, Prince, and Shay rushed to the main hall with anxious expressions.Harvey frowned. Logically speaking, they were also from Heaven’s Gate and the Gibson family. Even the John family would have to show them respect.Something must’ve gone wrong.‘Did something happen to Quill?’“Is Quill fine?” Harvey asked without hesitation.Darwin quickly walked over.“He’s fine. It’s something else, actually.“The Lopez family, the Corpse Walkers, are here to challenge our branch!“Without the head, nobody’s here to take charge!“This is bad!“Rumors say that they sent an expert who’s halfway into becoming a God of War.“If we’re not careful, not only will the family’s name be tarnished, but so will Heaven’s Gate! It’ll be troublesome for Helm Gibson.“Sir York, should we accept the challenge or not?”—In the evening, on the road to the lakeside villa of Golden Sands’ branch of Heaven’s Gate.Harvey
