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
Shay wouldn’t dare say anything more, since Harvey had already made up his mind.She sent her father a text when Harvey wasn’t looking, telling him to prepare himself. There was about to be a lot of trouble.Half an hour later, the car parked outside the entrance of a lakeside villa. The villa was surrounded by mountains and water. It was a place for Heaven’s Gate’s branch to attend to their important guests.To receive such grand treatment was testament to the Corpse Walkers’ ability.After getting out of the car, Harvey looked around the place calmly. Many mahogany coffins and funeral cars could be seen. It was a gloomy sight.The smell of formalin was in the air. Undoubtedly, the place had already been converted into the Corpse Walker’s domain.Many people in Kurbus clothing showed up quickly, as if they had sensed Harvey’s arrival. They looked at him with vengeful glares.From the crowd, a man in a wheelchair appeared. He was the same man with the golden-rimmed glasses who
Shay’s expression darkened. She knew the Corpse Walkers were shameless, but she didn’t know that it was to this extent.Not only were they causing Harvey trouble, but they wanted to force him to his death.More importantly, if they had reason to send more men here, Harvey’s death would definitely be in vain. Even the Gibson family wouldn’t get an excuse to fight back.At Talon’s screams, more people in Kurbus clothing showed up. Their skins were slightly dark, and their heads were raised up high, as if they were brimming with light.Even ordinary people could tell that they were expert martial artists.Seeing their arrival, Talon chuckled wretchedly.“The people of Heaven’s Gate are immoral!“We’re here to spar and exchange martial arts, but this bastard slapped me in the face because he doesn’t like us!“He thinks he’s the head of Heaven’s Gate just because he has the badge!“How dare he take advantage of us?!”Talon bit his tongue and spat out blood, acting as if Harvey had
“Silence!“Don’t you know that Young Master Cedric’s having a nap right now?“Do you people want to die?!”Another group appeared; they had slightly darker skin as well, but they were wearing ordinary clothes.The person in front was a middle-aged woman with a vengeful expression. She was one of the four top experts of the Corpse Walkers’ younger generation, Paloma Lopez.Paloma quickly went to the front of the crowd. As soon as she saw her junior with blood covering his mouth and a palm print on his face, her expression worsened.“What’s the matter, Talon?“You coughed up blood? Someone slapped you? “Who would dare do something like this?!”Paloma was furious; not only was Talon her junior, but he was also the one she cared for the most. After seeing him injured, it was only natural that she’d burst in anger.“You’re finally here, Paloma!“I thought the world’s completely lawless at this point!”Talon made sure to stay in character the entire time. He jumped into Paloma’s
“Heh! You think you’re impressive just because you have the badge?“I’ve seen arrogant people in my life, but not to this extent!“Even Quill has to respect the Corpse Walkers, let alone a child like you!“Take him out! At least break his legs, so he’d kneel in front of Talon…”The Corpse Walkers were screaming furiously at Harvey. A lot of them had already rolled up their sleeves, ready to take action.Talon looked smugly at Harvey.‘You think you can go against me now because you got me before?!‘You’re dead for going against the Corpse Walkers, you bastard!’Harvey wasn’t angry at all; he stopped Shay from calling anyone, and just watched the show calmly.For some reason, Talon found Harvey’s expression a little cold and terrifying. He couldn’t help but shiver, but quickly laughed coldly to bolster his courage.‘Where does he think he is? Why would I be scared of him now?’Paloma was infuriated when she saw Harvey’s expression remain the same the entire time.She took a
Shay kept trying to speak reason.“Look closely!“The shape and angle of the palm print on Talon’s face don’t belong to anyone else.“He did it himself, so he can frame Sir York!“Whatever he said was fake!”Talon’s expression changed after hearing Shay’s accusations.Everyone instinctively looked over, and finally understood the situation. No matter how anyone looked, Talon did the damage to himself. It was painfully obvious.The Corpse Walkers would definitely be in the wrong if things were to escalate.Harvey looked curiously at Shay; he didn’t expect that she’d figure out something like that to solve the situation.This was enough to prove that she had a keen eye and a careful heart. With enough nurturing, she’d be able to turn into a person with great character.After seeing the horrible looks on the Corpse Walkers’ faces, Shay took a step forward.“All of you should know what happened by now.“Stop looking for trouble already!“Step aside, okay?”Slap!Paloma stepp
