Kaiser shivered; if he wasn’t being forced to stand straight, he would’ve probably been kneeling on the ground or passed out already.While everyone was shocked by the Great Protector’s presence, Harvey only shrugged.“The Great Protector? Sounds impressive.“I wonder how much stronger you are compared to Kaysen.”The Great Protector squinted at Harvey.“You’re pretty cocky, kid!” he snarled.“Not only did you barge into a place like this to save a bunch of heinous criminals, but you even took advantage of the Heaven’s Gate’s higher-ups!“And now, you’re even ridiculing me!“Looks like you really don’t know just how powerful Heaven’s Gate really is, do you? Do you have any idea what the sacred martial arts training grounds represent?!”“They told me that already,” Harvey replied. “They’re kneeling right now. Are you doing the same or not?”“Kneel?” The Great Protector laughed, as if he heard the world’s greatest joke.“You have no chance for that anymore.“I gave you a chan
The Great Protector wanted to switch moves, but he was all too late.He had no choice but to commit, when at the next moment…Slap!The Great Protector felt a sharp pain on his face, and was sent flying. He slammed right into the steel door at the back.He quickly stumbled off the ground, pointing at Harvey; he wanted to say something, when blood gushed out of his mouth.The Great Protector was in despair; he felt nothing but sorrow. At this very moment, he felt a strong surge of energy sweeping around his body. He had to use his entire strength just to resist.Bam!He slammed his knees to the ground.He never thought that the young man in front of him was so terrifying. He trained for decades at hand, and yet, he was injured that easily.If Harvey had used a killer move, the Great Protector would’ve admitted defeat. The fact was, he only used a simple slap across the face.The Great Protector had no intention of fighting back at all at this very moment.The entire crowd w
At the Heaven’s Gate People Hospital…Harvey quickly sent Darwin and the others here instead of home.Shinsuke and the others were waiting there, but as long as they didn’t accomplish their goal, the Gibson family would be safe. Harvey didn’t have to worry because of that.However, Darwin and Prince’s injuries were all too heavy. Even if Harvey managed to keep their hearts and lungs, they still needed surgery to get better.Shay was fine enough; she’d be safe as soon as the drugs to weaken her body wore off.The hospital was still bustling even this late at night. As Heaven’s Gate’s dedicated hospital, the doctors hired here were all professionals. Not only were they proficient with physical injuries, but internal ones as well.Oddly, nobody came to treat Darwin and Prince even after ten minutes of Harvey bringing them here. The two nurses who were on standby were happily chatting with each other, as if nothing happened.Seeing that, Rachel couldn’t help but step forward.“Can
Darwin and Prince needed emergency rescue since they were badly injured; Shay on the other hand was mostly fine.Harvey got Shay a can of soda, then told Rachel and the disciples to keep an eye on the emergency room.“What happened when you came all the way here, Shay? Why did you three fall to the Law Enforcement Hall that easily?”Harvey believed that with Darwin’s personality, he’d definitely bring experts beside him. Even so, they all suffered a lot of losses before being locked up.If it wasn’t for Harvey, they would’ve died without even knowing why.Shay took a deep breath.“We had thirteen assassinations on us the moment we left Golden Sands. The hundred experts we had were already missing when we arrived at headquarters.“We ran into Heaven’s Gate’s Forbidden Army at the front gate.“They said that they knew what happened to us, so they wanted to save us and provide us protection… “We knew something was wrong, but we couldn’t just go against the Forbidden Army, eithe
The next day…After staying in the emergency room for an entire night, Darwin and Prince finally managed to wake up. However, they still needed to rest here for the time being.Harvey gave hundreds of thousands more to move them to the hospital’s biggest VIP ward, and arranged a few Longmen disciples to keep the two safe.It was already past ten when everything was settled.Harvey felt a little tired after staying up the entire night.The rest returned to the Gibson family’s residence.Quill’s funeral was already being arranged by Shinsuke.Seeing the fake smile on Shinsuke’s face, Harvey didn’t speak up about him telling Kaiser to help. Of course, he only wanted to make sure that Shinsuke didn’t do anything out of line. Plus, he didn’t trust Kaiser that much.It’d be best for the two to go against each other.Alani frowned when she saw how Harvey did everything; she was afraid he’d end up reaping the spoils. She went to a corner, and sent out a text she had already made befor
In the past, the Gibson family was powerful. With Quill’s protection, the family gained authority in Heaven’s Gate.But now…Devon chuckled.‘How ignorant can this family get?‘The Gibson family’s done for! Why can’t they see that?‘How dare they get an outsider to barge into the Imperial Prison!‘They got Darwin and Prince out, too!‘They’re lawless!‘That’s fine. The Forbidden Army had no excuse to search the Gibson family’s residence for the mental cultivation technique before…‘But now, we can do whatever we want!’Without a second thought, Devon showed a stern expression before he pointed at Lance and Clover.“You two! Give us the culprit who barged into the Forbidden Place!“If not, you’ll be charged for hiding criminals too!“That alone is enough of a reason for me to kill off your entire family!”Devon chuckled wretchedly.“Go! Question and capture anyone necessary! Kill anyone who tries to resist!“This is my order! Nobody else can change that!”Before the F
Devon was shivering in anger after hearing those words.“You want to die, you bastard?!”He only came here after receiving a secret report. A disciple of Quill outside of the family managed to take Darwin and the others away.That disciple also had the mental cultivation technique.It was why Devon came with his men as soon as possible. Not only was he planning to crush the Gibson family, but he was also planning to obtain the technique and become a God of War.He wouldn’t just leave because a nobody came out to insult him.What a joke that would be!“Go! Take them all away! Kill everyone who resists!”Devon changed his expression, and furiously waved his hand.The Gibson family went pale, and they all felt like screaming at Harvey. But before they could, Rachel took a step in front of Harvey, ready to go against the Forbidden Army.Bang, bang, bang!Loud gunshots were heard; Rachel took action without holding back. The Forbidden Army couldn’t even react as she grabbed two f
‘What the hell?‘The Great Protector?‘The head of the Law Enforcement Hall?‘And the warden of the Imperial Prison?‘They’re all prominent figures of Heaven’s Gate!‘Why would they show up here now?‘Why are they being so respectful?‘Even Quill wasn’t able to get these people to act this way!’Devon’s eyes twitched, and he instinctively let go of his sword.His men weren’t idiots, either; they knew they were going against someone way stronger than them. They quickly stumbled out of the way before hiding in the corner.“Not bad. You’re pretty early,” Harvey said, looking at the Great Protector and the others.“I’ll remove your restrictions for a while, but they won’t disappear easily. “You’d need me to remove it every year.“If not, you’ll turn into cripples.”Harvey stepped up, and patted the four. “I hope you know how to do chores.”The surging energy in their bodies shrunk, and they could barely feel it.While the Great Protector and the others were relieved, and
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
"If you're sober, bend your knee to the ladies and apologize, or I'll kill you!" Harvey snarled.The long-haired man was arrogant, but it was obvious for all that Harvey was even more so. All the spectators were shocked. It was the first time they saw someone acting so arrogant.The long-haired man finally realized what had happened; he held his face and yelled, "You idiot! How dare you touch me?"Harvey gave him another slap. "So what if I do? Can't I afford to? Do you want me to hit you a dozen times?"The long-haired young man didn't expect Harvey to make a move despite the current circumstances, and was completely stunned. He held his completely swollen face and screamed, "How dare you touch me! Kill him! I want him ground to dust!"Clang!Just as the men and women wanted to stand and attack Harvey, Durandal put down the teacup in his hand with a clang. He waved his right hand and said, "All of you… Are you blind? Can't you see that this is Ms. Mandy Zimmer, the leader of t
"150 million isn't enough?""1.5 billion?"Everyone gasped the moment they heard what Harvey had to say. At the same time, many people turned and looked at him at the same time. Aside from shock and disbelief, they looked like they were looking at a fool.Everyone could see that Durandal had already completely decimated this underground fighting pit. The Ninth Branch had lost hundreds of millions of dollars by now. No matter how sharp Maya's tongue was, it couldn't hide the fact that they had lost a lot of money.So when Harvey took the initiative and said something like that, many simply thought it was for their pride. Everyone knew that at this time, one should surrender and not scream in defiance. The men and women around Durandal all stared at Harvey. They didn't feel scared or excited, simply scornful.Mandy wanted to say something, but after hearing Harvey, she decided to keep silent and let him take control of everything. She believed that he could help her."Madam! Sir
Maya looked horrified. She was the one organizing things for the Ninth Branch. This fighter was already the most powerful the Ninth Branch had, but she didn't expect him to act like a complete newbie.As for Durandal, he picked up his teacup and sipped it. His phone screen was showing a game. It was obvious the fight in front of him had already been decided…and he was bored. A mobile game was even a better time killer than this.In some way, this was truly a way of showing how high and mighty he was.Meanwhile, a woman wearing a coat next to Durandal looked at the fight with scorn. It was obvious that the fight in front of her wasn't that interesting.After exchanging blows, the fighter from the Ninth Branch had completely lost his advantage. The Boxing Champion spun and broke his right arm in one strike.Crack!Before he could even scream, the Boxing King swooped right in front of him, then grabbed his head before punching him with all his might.Pfft…Blood immediately came o
"It was clear that this so-called champion had won countless matches. Otherwise, the spectators wouldn't be so excited when they saw him. Some of the women roared and screamed as if they were on cloud nine. The air was full of passion and excitement, as if this champion could really defeat everyone under the sun.Mandy frowned as she looked at the scene, and said slowly, "That's the elite fighter Durandal brought here. From the way he fought, he was indeed someone who had been fighting in underground fighting rings like ours for a long time. He calls himself the Boxing Champion, and has already won five bouts today. He has won at least 75 million dollars from us.""I see… He's a money printer…" Harvey looked at him and nodded. "From the surface, he's a peak King of Arms. If he let himself go, I believe he might be able to fight against those close to True Warrior."Mandy nodded before continuing, "He's just one of the elites Durandal brought with him. Other than him, there's the K
