The Higgs family instinctively stood up.Twenty years ago, Henrik was an extremely well-known figure in the outskirts.Back then, Henrik and his junior, Dorian Howell, had a terrifying fight for the position of Longmen’s outskirts branch leader.Henrik barely lost, but Dorian was badly injured as well.After that, Henrik left overseas, where he met a lot of people from American financial groups.During then, he combined the martial arts of Country H and genetic science. For the past twenty years, he had been completely invincible.As Henrik’s disciple, Salem would naturally be taught everything.“Legends say that Henrik’s disciple is the top talent of America’s younger generation! Is that him?!”The people who studied overseas instantly changed their expressions.“The top talent is rumored to challenge three different special forces in America! Even Gods of War in military forces are inferior compared to him! It’s said that Aegis, an organization from America, tried to recruit
Everyone was filled with shock when they saw it; nobody thought that Salem was able to ruin Kyren’s spirit with just his words.How terrifying!“You really are the outskirts’ strongest, Salem!”Conrad stood up, and burst out laughing. With Salem here, he could surely make the strongest comeback possible.Not just the Surrey family… The four great tribes and the Wolven Tribe would have no choice but to kneel in front of him!Everyone was showing a bitter expression.They thought this would only be a simple competition… And yet, some outsider managed to destroy every single fighter here completely! The outskirts might just have a change of power soon enough!“Salem! Salem! He must be Creed’s brother, right?“He’s not just here for the Wolven Tribe and the four great tribes, then!“The outskirts’ Longmen branch is also a part of their goal!Ernie instinctively shivered; he wanted to say something, but in the end, only gibberish could be heard. He couldn’t describe the horror he
Many people sighed, their expressions odd.“That man’s quite close to the Surreys. He would’ve been here by now if he planned to come. He must’ve run away after hearing Salem coming to take his revenge!”“That title must be fake after all! How dare he get the rest of us to take responsibility after causing this much trouble?!”Ernie was filled with despair after hearing all the gossip.‘Did Harvey actually run away?’Salem crossed his arms, his face calm. As time passed, nobody spoke up, nor did anyone stand out.Conrad instinctively glared at Ernie, and moved his thumb across his neck.Ernie raised his head to the sky, a drop of tear in the corner of his eye. ‘Am I going to die here as well…?’Kyren chuckled bitterly; he was quite interested in Master York, since he had heard about the rumors as well.And yet…“Is Master York just a show-off after all?“Did he get that title just by flaunting his strength?“It’s only normal. Even I’m no match against that man.“Nobody her
Everyone was filled with disbelief, as if they were looking at an idiot…Meanwhile, Harvey slowly walked to the ring with his arms crossed. Everyone quickly stumbled out of the way; nobody dared to stand in his path. They didn’t know if he was insane or stupid to call himself “Master York.” However, nobody would stop him from his death anyway.Salem was prepared to kill a hundred people if he couldn’t face Master York. What a joyous thing to have someone step up as a scapegoat!Harvey ignored everyone as he stepped into the ring. He wasn’t showing off like the previous fighters. In everyone’s eyes, he was just an ordinary man who didn’t know anything.Kyren was a little excited; he thought Harvey had something up his sleeve to be talking this big…However, Harvey only walked up and was showing absolutely nothing.Enraged, Kyren laughed. He knew to clear his frustrations, since Harvey had done a lot for his daughter. He didn’t like Harvey, but he wouldn’t just send Harvey to hi
Salem crossed his arms, looking calmly at Harvey.He had a keen eye; he could instantly tell that the young man in front of him trained in martial arts. After all, could Harvey be this casual in front of him if that wasn’t the case?Even the consuls of the three great temples, who prided on their ability to connect themselves to a higher power, wouldn’t dare act this way.However, Salem still didn’t believe that Harvey was the one who defeated Creed and inadvertently caused his death.After all, Creed was still a King of Arms despite his shortcomings. A young man like Harvey simply wouldn’t be able to take out someone like that easily.“Forget it. You must be sent out here to test me. You people want to see if I’d actually dare kill someone! If you people want to see, then be my guest!”Salem’s eyes were filled with murderous intent as he glared at Harvey.The people from the high towers looked around them oddly. Conrad looked at Ernie, confused. Ernie was leaning on his chair
The place instantly got a lot colder; many were starting to shiver.Despite that, Harvey wasn’t phased by the murderous intent at all.“If you want to find the one who defeated Creed, then that’ll be me. If you want the one who took down Takai, then that’s still me. The one who made Stefan and Julie kneel is also me.”Harvey shrugged.“What? Still don’t believe me?”Everyone gasped after hearing Harvey’s confident words.“What? He’s Master York? How is that possible?!“Why is he talking about those achievements like it’s actually true? Ordinary people wouldn’t know about those things!”The people on the high towers froze; they didn’t know how to feel about Harvey’s words at all.Conrad recalled something. ‘That bastard! He was the one who sent me to jail after I went to the Surreys’ residence!’“Looks like you really want to die, huh?”Salem’s face darkened. It didn’t matter if Harvey was speaking the truth or not; he needed to kill Harvey immediately.“I do, but nobody’s b
“Since you’re telling me that you’re Master York… Then it doesn’t matter if it’s true or not!“For my master’s pride, and my brother’s revenge… I’d have to kill you no matter what!”Salem stomped on the ground, and his aura surged out. Nothing was happening in the eyes of ordinary people, but experts could tell that he was gathering all of his aura into his hand.At the same time, faint sparks could be seen traveling in between his fingers with a low hum.It was clear Salem was going all out.Harvey could die if the attack were to land.“What? Is that the legendary Electric Fist?!” Kyren was completely shocked.“Only a few people could achieve that since ancient times!“It’s said that after one takes in a lightning strike during a thunderstorm on top of a mountain, there is a chance to learn the move!“Salem managed that?!”“Is that…? Is that actually the Electric Fist?!” Raul was filled with disbelief.For martial artists, training one’s aura was a lot more important than
“What?! Even Raiden?!”Baylee was filled with shock.To show off their combat strength, America filmed a series of Hollywood movies for that. Raiden was one of the featured people in them.In that movie, Raiden was capable of achieving anything. He was probably not as good in reality, but his name was simply too influential!From this alone, it was enough to show just how terrifying Salem was.“This means…he’s finished?”Baylee covered her small mouth with a horrible expression.“Judging from Salem’s strength as a God of War, Harvey would never be able to go against him, even without the Electric Fist.”Raul sighed.“Harvey said Salem’s strength came from genetic enhancements… But martial arts is all about the end result, and not the process. Who would care how anyone got to this point?“The kid’s got moves…but he doesn’t realize that there will always be someone better. That’s how the world works, after all!”Raul, who was a skillful man, looked down on Harvey completely; h
Harvey narrowed his eyes. "Early?"Yvonne nodded. "Correct. According to our sources, he went to a rest stop about 10 miles away from Wolsing to pick up someone."Harvey was quite curious. "Who can make Linus so passionate to welcome? Who is this person?"Yvonne massaged her forehead. "Speaking of which, this man can be considered your subordinate in a way. Unfortunately, it's fate that he won't be under your control."Harvey narrowed his eyes. "Someone from the Sacred Martial Arts Training Grounds?""That's right. The scion of the Sacred Martial Arts Training Grounds in Parkerville, Dan Parker. Previously, he requested to marry someone from the Wright family, and the Wright family had officially responded. He'll soon be the son-in-law of the Wright family," Yvonne explained sternly.Harvey was slightly stunned. "The son-in-law of the Wright family? Which means…Sienna's fiancé?"Meanwhile, at the rest stop 10 miles away… The rest stop which was usually quite plain was lavishly
Harvey had been freed, but there was still some paperwork that needed to be done.Harvey was patient, as if he really wanted the key to the city and prevent Country A from trying to stir up another storm with him. He was very cooperative throughout the entire process.Only once all the paperwork was done did Soren sigh in relief. "Leave the rest to us, Harvey. In the next few days, stay discreet so no one will get you into any problem.""What? I've already proven that I'm innocent. What kind of problems will there be?" Harvey said curiously.Soren didn't want to hide anything from Harvey and said with a bitter smile, "I won't lie to you. While the people who died were from Country H, they had already obtained permanent residency in Country A, which meant that they were a part of Country A as well. Just today, Country A's side had already given us pressure through their embassy."Logically speaking, we have to find the culprit as soon as possible. However, all the evidence we've co
Ten minutes later, Soren personally asked Harvey to join him in the director's office. After a pot of hot tea had been brewed and poured, he sighed and said, "I'm so sorry for today. It's my subordinates' blunders. He did whatever he wanted already despite just being promoted. I'll be sure to make up to you."Harvey smiled. "I can understand that with your family's size, you'll inadvertently end up with a few people with questionable behavior. You better keep an eye on things and don't let one person ruin everything for you and your family. Wolsing is different from Golden Sands. You have to be extremely careful when you're here."Harvey's words were cold, but it was enough to make Soren think about it. Meanwhile, Garrick, who was standing there with his arms next to him, almost fell on his knees as he felt his legs lose strength. Since simple words from Harvey had already ended his future."Of course… It's best if someone can correct themselves after knowing the errors of their
"Ha! What an idiot! Who does he think he is? If he really is someone important, why is he even here?" Snowe sneered.The only emotion Snowe had for Harvey was disdain. She despised men who have no capabilities at all the most.Garrick and the others went to the main hall of the precinct. Everyone from Country A had been told to go home. At this moment, a row of cars with flags drove toward the entrance of the precinct. Judging from the car plates and the flags on the car, it was obvious the person inside the car was someone important within the police force. Very quickly, the door was opened. Garrick and the others saw the most important and newly promoted man within the police force in Wolsing—Soren Braff, ranked two within the Braff family.There were several high-level members of the police force with him in white uniforms, and all of them exuded an incredibly powerful presence. The moment Garrick and the others saw Soren appearing, they quickly greeted him with a smile."Wh
Hearing Harvey's conversation, the beautiful female officer said in disdain, "What? Are you pretending to contact someone from the Braff family? Do you think that's enough to scare the director? Our director is someone important within the family! If you really know the people from the Braff family, why wouldn't he know you?"I'm telling you right now. If you really did call someone from the Braff family, I, Snowe Leo, will eat this phone right in front of everyone!"In the beginning, Garrick was taken aback as well. But after he quickly glanced at the number on the screen, he smiled coldly. "You probably didn't know this, but aside from the number of my family's patriarch, I've saved the number of everyone important in the family. Do you want to trick me using just a random number? You're quite bold!""Really, now?" Harvey said with a smile. "At the very least, you know that you don't have the right to know his number. In that case, I'll help you delete that number. It won't be g
"Ha… I'm the director of the precinct in the Third Ring, and I'm not worth your time?" Garrick was so angry that he was laughing. "You made yourself sound like you're someone very capable. Come on, show me just how capable you are right now!"Garrick immediately grabbed his phone and tossed it at Harvey. "Come on, make a call! If you can find someone who can overpower me, I'll bend my knee right now."The other two officers also looked at Harvey as if they were looking like a fool. "Forget the fact that you're just an ex-live-in son-in-law… Even if you really did become a CEO through your own abilities, what is there to be proud of?" the female officer said with a smirk. In her eyes, Harvey was just a loser. If a man like him wanted to pursue her, he would have already kicked him to the rub.Harvey didn't waste his breath and immediately picked up the phone, giving Eliel Braff a call. Very quickly, the call came through and a stern voice came from the other side. "Who is thi
"Your deduction is quite interesting. Sounds like a detective show, to be honest," Harvey said calmly. "Unfortunately, I have a clear conscience. Why should I admit to a crime I never committed?""Not you?" The female officer slammed the table again. "If you didn't do it, why are you so willing to cooperate with us? You're telling me it isn't because you're feeling guilty? Harvey York, you have to understand that the crime you committed is very serious, especially when the person you killed is from Country A!"If the Embassy sends a specialist to interfere with this investigation, you're going to be in trouble. You better confess when the precinct can still help you. Otherwise, I'm afraid there's nothing you can change no matter how much you regret it in the future."Their phones would buzz every once in a while, which meant new information coming in. From the new information, not only was Harvey the live-in son-in-law of the Jeans of Mordu, one of the top ten families, but he was a
"A lawyer?" Garrick scoffed. "Forget about a lawyer, it's pointless even if you find a wizard! I've already read your information. The CEO of Sky Corporation? Maybe in other cities, the CEO of a public company deserves some respect, but don't forget that this is Wolsing, the country's seat of power! There are plenty of CEOs walking around here!"When you're in Wolsing, it doesn't matter who you are, or what kind of special identity you have. Those who commit crimes here will be punished! You won't be given any special treatment!"Garrick then looked at Harvey as if he had an advantage over him. "Confess the crimes you've committed! That way, I can grant you some leeway. Otherwise, you'll suffer a terrible death!"Harvey merely looked at Garrick briefly and said, "You didn't interrogate me, and you didn't show me any evidence. All you do is to tell me to confess. I must say, you're quite tough. But aren't you afraid of accidentally offending the wrong people here in Wolsing, especial
Yvonne frowned slightly when she realized what Garrick meant. "Director, my boss isn't a suspect. He's only here…""Whether he's a suspect or not isn't up to you or me. It's up to the law and the evidence," Garrick said, glaring at Yvonne. His gaze became somewhat sleazy, and he began to scheme how he could use this scenario to throw this beautiful woman into his bed.He continued to say righteously, "Ma'am, I'm warning you. You better not interrupt our investigation. Of course, if you have something to say, you can always lodge a complaint to the office."After that, he waved his hand, and the two officers behind him led Harvey into the interrogation room. Seeing what had happened, Yvonne hesitated a little before sending out a message quickly on her phone.This was something quite serious. If Harvey went in because of this, it would be quite troublesome for the Xavier family as well. Unfortunately, it wouldn't be convenient for the Xaviers to do anything…Meanwhile, Harvey w
