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
Harvey was lightning fast.Speed was the only way to long success.The Corpse Walkers didn’t understand that fact, but that changed immediately after seeing him move so quickly. His speed was beyond their wildest imaginations.They couldn’t even see him clearly, let alone block his attacks.Talon’s throat went dry, and his body turned completely cold.“What are you going to do, Harvey…?”Paloma instinctively shivered.“What do you want?! Do you know the consequences you’ll have to bear for touching my junior? Let him go right now!” she screamed.“Do it, or we’ll kill you!” the experts yelled. “Young Master Cedric is here! You’ll pay a huge price for being this reckless!“You deserve death for humiliating the Corpse Walkers!”The Corpse Walkers laughed coldly as they kept threatening Harvey. They clearly didn’t understand the situation they were in.Talon took a deep breath, and flashed Harvey a cold smile.“You dare kill me? You wouldn’t do that even with all the courage
“Look out, Sir York!” Shay yelled, her face pale.Slap!Harvey calmly stepped forward, and swung his palm forward.In just a moment, Harvey’s palm was infinitely expanding in front of everyone’s eyes. Upon seeing it, they were all in utter disbelief when they saw the sight.“Aaagh!”The experts screamed in pain as they were all sent flying. They coughed up blood as they fell to the ground, their faces twisted into ugly expressions.The Iron Corpses were instantly kicked aside before they could come out of the coffins.Pfft!The people controlling the Iron Corpses spat blood out of their mouths, barely breathing.Paloma was shocked to see it.Not only did Talon die because of Harvey, but Harvey also beat up and disrespected the Corpse Walkers!They never experienced a time when they were immediately defeated before the Iron Corpses even came out!“Go! All of you! Right now!” Paloma screamed without a second thought. “Kill this bastard already!”A few more experts raised the
After seeing his best disciple killed, the second elder gritted his teeth in anger.He knew that Paloma was here to take out Harvey, so Quill could be forced into a bad spot. If that happened, The Corpse Walker would have a chance to be accepted into Golden Sands.But before she could even take advantage of the situation, she was already killed.The second elder felt sorrow, and also felt his pride tarnished in that very moment.“I’ll kill you! I’ll kill you myself!”The second elder moved right toward Harvey, and threw his palm forward. It emanated a foul stench of a corpse and a cold aura.It was the Corpse Walkers’ killer move, the Twisted Palm!Right as the second elder attacked, Harvey’s palm had already made contact with his face.Slap!The second elder flew out and slammed right into the ground like a dead dog. Blood immediately came out of his mouth soon after.“You bastard! How dare you slap me?!”The second elder was furious; he swallowed a pill with a foul stench,
“A geomancy expert?!’The second elder showed a horrible expression, as if he had taken a bite out of a bitter gourd.‘What kind of geomancy expert would have talent like this?!’Before he could scream, Harvey took action—Harvey had no intention of giving him a chance.Harvey stepped forward again, and slapped the second elder around. Under the crowd’s shocked gaze, the man kept stumbling backward each time he received a hard slap.Slap!“So what if I ruin your young master’s date?”Slap!“So what if I destroyed the Iron Corpses?”Slap!“You want me dead for killing your people?“Am I not allowed to fight back if you’re the ones coming for me?“Are you worthy?“Do you think you have the right to do something like that?”Harvey’s face was calm as he lectured the second elder with every single slap.Not only did he feel pain in his face, but his heart was also wrenched by the humiliation.“What? You think you’re actually invincible, just because you’ve been doing whatever
Harvey calmly raised his head before glancing in the direction of the voice.“Did I tell you to speak?”The righteous-looking elder immediately stopped talking, his expression ugly. Naturally, he believed that he was here to uphold justice…But he didn’t think that he’d be this intimidated with just a single glance.“Impressive!“You’ve got guts!“What a show!”A faint chuckle was heard from inside the courtyard the moment Harvey stepped in.Harvey and Shay looked over; they saw Cedric in a Givenchy suit, smoking a thin and long cigar with a group of people behind him.A woman could be seen wrapping herself around his arm.‘Elodie!’Harvey frowned; he didn’t understand why she would be with Cedric in the first place.In reality, after his failed date, Cedric was already with Elodie. She came to him herself. One was greedy for beauty, and the other for riches; the two were a match made in heaven.“Young Master Cedric! Ms. Elodie!”The Corpse Walkers stumbled off the grou
Cedric gave the order calmly.If this was Kurbus, he was certain he wouldn’t need to do so much to kill a person.Harvey was the representative of the Patel family and the six Hermit Families, as well as the acting head of Heaven’s Gate. It was only natural for Cedric to call for backup.After Harvey killed and hurt so many people, he would need to pay the price!Not only would Cedric be able to take out Harvey, but he could also use the opportunity to attack Penny’s pride and get a chance to be with her.Upon hearing Cedric’s command, experts in Kurbus clothing appeared from everywhere. Some were standing on walls and trees. Others were hidden in the shadows of the building. They all bore grim expressions, as if they could kill a person at any moment.Aside from them, there were also many security guards with firearms blocking Harvey and Shay’s path, all of them looking fierce.Sounds of coffins being opened were heard as well. The Corpse Walkers were planning to use their grea
Cedric and the others’ expressions changed slightly.Nobody thought Harvey would be this disrespectful toward Elodie.‘She’s trying to help him!‘Why is he being so ignorant?‘Does he have a death wish?’A few expert Corpse Walkers cracked their necks as they stepped forward. They were a lot more powerful than the previous Corpse Walkers. They felt confident enough to take out Harvey.“Hold on, Young Master Cedric. No matter the case, he’s still the Jean family’s live-in son-in-law! Give me a chance, I’ll convince him!” Elodie said, as soon as the experts stepped out.In reality, she wanted to trample on Harvey even more.Cedric nodded with a faint smile, and watched with curiosity. Elodie took a step forward with a righteous expression.“I know you’ve already given up on yourself, Harvey!“You’re challenging Young Master Cedric just to show off your worth!“You’re desperately trying to get Mandy to stay with you!“But you need to know that no matter how impressive you ac
Janus ignored the handprint on his face, and said loudly, "You're right, Mr. Emery! Someone like me who can't even succeed on his tasks deserves to be hit!"Emery sighed. "Janus, since when have I punished you for failing your tasks? Have you ever slacked off when I told you to do something?"Janus replied decisively, "I've always given it my all when I perform my duties!"Emery said, "Since you did your best, it doesn't matter whether you succeed or fail. You will always be one of mine. Humans make plans and the gods laugh, after all. If I can't even take something as small as this, what kind of a leader am I?"However, it's also true that you have failed. It won't be just if I don't punish you for your failure. Those who succeed will be rewarded, while those who fail will be punished. Let's see… I own an estate in the Summer Isles, located in the P Ocean. No one has managed it for a long time now."My punishment for you and your men is that you must all head to the Summer Isles
"I am disloyal for not being able to bear my master's burden when I am a retainer. I am unjust for not being able to alleviate my master's misery when I am a follower. And I have simply made even more mistakes when I accidentally let news of this slip out, and all the media have come to witness this when I'm begging for forgiveness…"In other words, everything that has happened right now is because of me! I've come to beg for forgiveness when I'm scared of accepting my punishment because I've failed! And what I did right now has caused Mr. Emery even more problems!"I have sinned!" Janus yelled; his face was filled with sincerity, and each word he uttered was laced with pain. If Harvey hadn't known that Tyson and his men had left Janus and co there, he would have thought everything Janus said was genuine.When even Harvey could be deceived by such an act, everyone else believed everything that Janus had said. At this time, everyone who was kneeling yelled, "All of us have erred!
"Really? Is Janus that loyal to me?" Emery laughed. "If that's true, I won't let those loyal to me weep or bleed. Unfortunately, he'll need to suffer a little more. Some things just won't work as well until a bit of time passes. Go and hint at Janus that he and I will be a king and retinue…"…A short while after Harvey had met up with Vaughn, George sent Harvey a message. It included a picture of Janus and his men lying in front of the Wright residence, as well as many reporters appearing.George only wanted to report this to Harvey, but after Harvey had seen what was happening, he immediately made his way to the Wright residence. He looked at the chaos slowly unfolding in front of him with great interest.Moments after he had arrived, black vans appeared not that far away. Many powerfully built men in black suits got out of the vans with sorrowful expressions. They kneeled on one knee in front of the residence.Janus and his men had all been helped up after their injuries ha
While Harvey and Vaughn forged their alliance, Betty's phone started to vibrate as she was at the Wright Manor. Once she picked up the call and listened to the report, she couldn't care less about the rules and rushed into Emery's study immediately. "We have a situation, Mr. Wright! It's Janus and his men! Janus and the core members from his branch have all been crippled! While I have no proof that it's Harvey, I highly suspect that it's him or his men."The worst part is, someone left Janus and his branch in front of your estate! Many have noticed this, and some of the reporters are already heading this way. We need your orders, Mr. Emery!"Betty looked distraught. Emery's right-hand man had been crippled and left right in front of his residence. It wasn't a simple humiliation tactic—it was a psychological challenge aimed at him. Betty knew just how cold Emery was. She was worried he would make the wrong choice, which could lead to undesirable consequences.Emery, who was in
Even though Vaughn was making a fuss, Harvey paid the former no mind. He picked up the last piece of mini tart from the stand and stuffed it into his mouth. He burped and then narrowed his eyes at Vaughn, smiling. "Vaughn, why can't you understand something so simple when you're now one of the scions with the highest chance to lead your family?"You need to stay calm when something important happens. If you keep on yelling in front of me, other than showing me just how anxious and indecisive you are, it's completely useless," he said, picking up his cup of coffee."You have some understanding about me, so I'm going to be straight with you. I don't care what Hector did in the past, but ever since I was in Wolsing, he kept plotting against my ex-wife and even planned to pin the blame on me. I believe killing him is a fitting retaliation."I'm very busy right now. It gets very annoying when a fly is buzzing around me all the time. Of course, the official records stated that Hector at
Gate Pavilion, Wolsing.A tiered stand displaying an assortment of pastries stood in front of Vaughn accompanied by a pot of hot coffee, its strong fragrance permeating the air. However, Vaugn had no appetite at all despite the tasty snacks in front of him. Harvey, who was sitting in front of him, had his full attention.Harvey sat opposite Vaughn, enjoying the pastries and coffee. "The food here is quite nice, Vaughn. I wouldn't have come here myself. Normally, I prefer to get something from the streets. If it isn't because I'm expecting a guest like you, I wouldn't have booked this private room that needs a minimum spending of 1,000 dollars."The corner of Vaughn's eye twitched. He then said coldly, "Enough with the chatter. You should know that if I tell the Thompsons that you're here in Gare Pavilion, hundreds of men would appear to try and kill you."Harvey… Just how brazen can you be? How dare you kill Hector! Don't tell me you really think that as one of the top ten fami
The Thompson family manor used black and white as the main decorative colors.All the Thompsons, as well as those in charge of huge corporations and companies, arrived at Wolsong from around the world.They were astonished by Hector's death. However, it also opened opportunities for many ambitious family members. Originally, the one who would oversee the Thompson family had already been decided. All everyone needed to do was to become obedient followers. Now that an opportunity had presented itself, everyone wanted to find a way to rise.The Thompson family manor was located within an estate in the countryside. At this moment, Vaughn from the main branch got out of a Bentley sports car. Just as he was about to go through the entrance of the estate, a black Toyota Alphard slowly approached him and flashed its light at him.Vaughn frowned. He looked at the car plate silently.Very quickly, the Toyota Alphard stopped right next to him. An indistinct man, one who couldn't be recog
Harvey looked at the short-haired woman."Do I need to repeat myself? Emery's name means nothing to me. Alright, now that I'm done with Janus, it's your turn right now. Are you going to do it yourself? Or should I have my men do it instead?"Harvey then pulled out his phone and dialed a number. Very quickly, Tyson led his men inside and started to clean up the estate. After giving Harvey a salute, he then took Janus and the others away.Harvey could tell that Tyson and his men were becoming more and more professional."Sir, I've just received news that Emery had left Pamela's home half an hour ago. He's probably the one who arranged for Janus to be here, but according to his personality, he didn't care much about the details—only the results. And the result he will get this time is going to disappoint him very much," George said."Also, Hector's funeral is confirmed to be three days later," he added. He had entered the estate shortly after Tyson and his men left to report his fi
The bullet was going to hit Harvey right in the forehead, but Harvey couldn't even be bothered to look at it and simply raised his left hand. His index and ring finger came together. There was a screech as he caught the bullet with his fingers, smoke still surrounding them.He simply stood there, his expression still the same as before. Meanwhile, Janus' expression darkened."This is nice. Unfortunately, you can't bring out its full power," Harvey said as he looked at the bullet between his fingers. Then, he threw the bullet in Janus' direction.The bullet made a whistling sound as it glided in the air like a bolt of lightning. It was surrounded by an aura so powerful that it was able to consume the very heavens.The short-haired woman subconsciously cried, "Run, boss!"Janus had a very dark expression on his face. As an elite warrior, he knew very clearly there was no place for him to run in a condition like this. If he would get hit no matter where he went, then the only chanc
