Aria Surrey froze. She did not expect Harvey to have such character.Miley Surrey’s eyes twitched as she stared at him strangely.Normally speaking, con men would instantly refute their incredibility instead of leaving.Harvey’s decisiveness made Miley think he was actually capable of something.But even so, he was just looking for death for being arrogant!Even before Miley could do anything, Lennon Surrey blew on his mustache before screaming in rage.“Did you not hear what I just said?!”Miley resentfully bit her thin lip before finally apologizing.“I’m sorry, Master York!”“Don’t bother if you’re not actually apologetic,” replied Harvey without looking back.“You’d make yourself look hypocritical.”Miley froze. She did not expect Harvey to be this straightforward.A dozen fierce men beside her instantly glared at Harvey fiercely.‘How dare he disrespect the Fourth Lady like that?! He deserves to die!’Miley waved her hand, stopping the men from doing anything before
“Master Aryan! This is Harvey. He’s young, but his skills are extraordinary!“You two should get acquainted with each other!”Aryan Augustus smiled as if he did want to get to know Harvey York.Harvey politely extended his hand.“A master of the Aenar Temple.“I heard that your temple has a long history. Not only is the Aenar Temple one of the three great temples of the outskirts, but it also has the teachings of the original founder of the sect!“I’ll be sure to visit if I get a chance.”A hint of pride showed in Aryan’s eyes before he shook Harvey’s hand.“Hello, Mr. York.”Aryan no longer intended to talk to Harvey when he turned to look at Lennon.“I looked into your injury, Mr. Lennon,” he said sternly.“The best way to treat you is to do away with your training! As long as you forgo your training, you’ll be able to prosper for a long time! A few dozen years more wouldn’t be a problem!”Then, Aryan looked at Miley Surrey.“Mr. Lennon would seem disabled after that. Th
“It’s just a friendly reminder.”“What do you mean by that, Mr. York?A hint of rage could be seen on Aryan Augustus’s face.“The Aenar Temple allows everyone to eat whatever they want and bear children, but we still strive to improve our morals each day!“Since I said I can save Mr. Lennon this way, this is simply just that!“Ask Mr. Lennon! See if he believes me!“I came here many times already! I managed to relieve him of his pain every single time!“I wouldn’t suggest this unless there’s no other way!“You’re disrespecting me and the Aenar Temple for questioning the method!”Aryan was filled with anger.The Aenar Temple’s reputation was immense on the outskirts.Questioning the Aenar Temple meant death!“It’s not the first time I’ve seen Master Aryan, Harvey.“He’s also been using multiple methods to treat my body.“Then again, we could only use the methods once before losing effect.Lennon Surrey briefly hesitated before finally continuing to speak.“He’s probably
Lennon Surrey’s expression slightly darkened after hearing those words.“This is an important matter, Grandfather. We should fully prepare ourselves before making such a decision. If not, we’ll be food for everyone eyeing on us.Miley Surrey scoffed.“I know you’re a coward, but don’t get Grandfather into this too!“You, of all people, know what’s going on with him! Every breath he takes might just be his last!“When that happens, who will take responsibility for the family not having a leader?!“If it’s up to me, I’d decide as soon as possible!“With the Aenar Temple, who would even dare disrespect us?!”Wildcat wanted to say something but decided to keep quiet in the end. It was not his place, after all.Harvey York casually sipped his tea with a pondering look.Lennon squinted for a moment before finally speaking.“Master Aryan, I believe your judgment, but the cost of forgoing my practice is simply too much.“I’d like to try something else instead.”“Grandfather, you…
Lennon Surrey showed a profound expression after hearing Harvey York’s words.He stared deeply into Harvey’s eyes for a moment before he smiled.“I’m sorry, Harvey. I’m just overthinking.“Please don’t mind me.“How about we talk about your methods of treating me instead?”Harvey gave a slight nod.“Show me how you regulate energy—your energy regulation technique.”In reality, Harvey could already tell how Lennon was injured, but he did not want to surprise him too much by saying that.Aria Surrey brought a thin book before handing it to Harvey.Harvey casually flipped through the pages…While he did, Aryan Augustus had already gotten inside his Land Rover, completely ignoring Miley Surrey while at that.Aryan rolled up the privacy glass to isolate himself from the driver before dialing a number.“Things are getting a little hairy.“Lennon found himself a brat who came out of nowhere.“He chose to let the brat treat him instead of us.”A long moment of silence before a c
Aria Surrey seemed angered after seeing the sight.“What is the meaning of this?“This is the Surrey family’s heirloom! This…”Before Aria was done speaking, Lennon Surrey’s body shuddered before he pounced right at the book to read it.He seemed normal when he read it at first…But after a short while, he was showing an expression of utter disbelief.His jaw was gaping at the end.“Grandfather? Grandfather?”Aria shook Lennon, thinking that something might have happened to him.Lennon closed his eyes without saying a word, then slowly let out a breath of air.Then, he stood up and deeply bowed before Harvey York.“This is simply impressive!“The family will never forget what you did for us!”Harvey just smiled.“This is nothing. The energy regulation technique still originated from the Surrey family.“I only filled in and corrected some of the missing stuff.”Aria was utterly shocked.‘This young man in front of me did all that?’Lennon shook his head.“You’re being
Half an hour later, Harvey York left the Surrey family residence.Aria Surrey drove him back to the urban area.She gave him an access card. It was for one of the villas at Eden Mountain.Harvey had no intention of accepting the card when Lennon Surrey presented it. Still, he reluctantly decided otherwise after thinking the Surrey family would only be at ease this way.At the same time, Aria even came along to apologize in person.She knew that without Harvey’s generosity, Ernie Surrey would have been either dead or completely crippled.-Half an hour later, Aria frowned while looking at her grandfather.“Why aren’t you thinking of ways to keep Master York here?“If he’s willing to be the family’s servant, even just in name, we wouldn’t be at a disadvantage when we go against the other tribes in the future.”Lennon let out a sigh.“He was able to see the family’s threat without much effort. Do you think a man like that would be satisfied being the family’s lowly servant?“W
At night, Harvey York had gotten a few phone calls in his villa.Other than Yvonne Xavier’s daily reports and Kairi Patel’s flirting, Ethan Hunt also called.According to what he said, he could not get in touch with some soldiers of the Sword Camp.Then, he sent all the information of those soldiers to Harvey’s phone.Harvey glanced at it before showing an odd expression.The soldiers seemed to have been studying under the Aenar Temple. Nobody knew whether it was just a coincidence.After staying in the outskirts for a while, Harvey started to get an understanding of the place as well.Out of the three great temples of the outskirts, the Aenar Temple had the most presence.Not only did it have a lot of disciples, but it had been accepting donations since ancient times to the point where it was a massive force in the outskirts.The Aenar Temple had also been recruiting all sorts of talents.Miley Surrey and some soldiers of the Sword Camp were just a part of it.Miley aside,
