Harvey York had no intention of causing trouble.Even if the sects planned to go against him, he would not do anything before they acted.Since Stinger planned to use Mandy Zimmer to further his martial arts…Then, he naturally would not let that go.“What? Are you threatening me and Stinger?”Welt York took a deep breath, forcing to compose himself.“Do you want me to give you an explanation?“I’ll give you that right now!”Welt pulled out his firearm before taking the safety off, ready to point it at Harvey’s head.Bam!Harvey swept his hand on the table when a pegwood flew straight into Welt’s wrist.“Aaagh!”A scream of pain was heard. Welt’s hand was so painful that it felt like it was cut off.The firearm in his hand dropped to the ground before it misfired.The bullet grazed his scalp. His face was showing utter shock.“Come! Kill him off!” he exclaimed, pointing at Harvey with his other hand.“I’ll take full responsibility!”The monks looked at each other befor
“You talk too much.“If you’re that impressive, then come at me already.Harvey York tilted his head.“You have eight other monks. You’re a God of War yourself.“If you fight me seriously, you might just hurt me and reclaim your pride.“I’ll even let you make the first move.”Welt York was completely infuriated after hearing those words.“Stinger!“That bastard doesn’t even respect you!“Kill him!“Attack simultaneously! If eight monks aren’t enough to help you, then we’ll get all thirty-six!“That arrogant bastard will surely die!”Stinger glared at Welt.“You’re a disciple of Adenar Temple. How are you this naive?” he replied coldly.“Master York has control over half of the outskirts!“Do you think a prominent figure like him will be taken down that easily?“If you go against him, you go against the four great tribes and the Wolven Tribe.“What will you do when all those forces decide to come at you?”Stinger took a deep breath before showing an unbelievably calm s
“Stinger, right?” asked Harvey York coldly while wiping his hand.“You talk a lot about your young master and your sect…“You even brought up my identity and promised me a lot of benefits…“Straight up, you’re telling me to kneel in front of Amos and be his lackey, right?“And if I don’t, you people wouldn’t hesitate to take me out either.“What? Do you think I’m scared?“You people attacked first! I only came to the rescue!“Yet you decide to twist the truth!“You even implied I’m using my identity to suppress you!“If that’s how you do things around here, then I’m happy to play along!Harvey crossed his arms while disdainfully glaring at Stinger.“I order you to kneel and slap yourself as an apology to Mandy.“You don’t have to do it, but I’ll use my identity as the representative to suppress your sects with the country’s sacred martial arts training grounds!“I’ll even promise them I’d resign after they support me! They’d be free from all restrictions after that!“We’l
Stinger showed an indifferent expression with an unspeakably gloomy gaze.Along with the change in his aura, the air immediately became colder, as if someone had turned on the air conditioner, making everyone instinctively shiver.Ledger York’s eyes twitched when he was filled with regret.No matter how strong the York family was, it had no right to be involved in a conflict of this caliber.The family simply was not worthy to go against Harvey York or the sects.The family was just too powerless.Playing both sides to reap all rewards would probably cause untimely destruction.Harvey calmly looked at Stinger. No matter how horrible Stinger’s face looked, he only faintly smiled when he pulled his hand up.“You have five seconds.“I do hope that you’ll cherish the time.”“You…Stinger briefly glared at Harvey before showing a furious and gloomy smile.“Good! Very good!“I’ve been roaming the underworld for many years now! I’ve killed countless Gods of War and Kings of Arms
Ledger York trembled.“This is a misunderstanding! That’s it!“I’ve always been honest with you!“Welt doesn’t know what’s good for him! He’s siding with Adenar Temple to go against you!“I’ll give you an explanation for this!”Bam!Harvey York kicked Ledger to the side before coming to Mandy Zimmer’s side and giving her water.At the same time, he placed his hand on Mandy’s wrist to circulate her blood.“What happened here, Mandy?” he whispered when Mandy was mostly recovered.“Weren’t you supposed to head back to Wolsing?“How did you get yourself in this situation?”Mandy thought of what had happened. She had been cautious already but did not expect her bodyguards to be completely outmatched either.She was cursed without even realizing that.“I was naive.”Mandy took a deep breath before describing the situation.“Welt asked to see me.“He said there’s a way for me to obtain the Eyed Bead I sought for.“Then again, he wanted to strike a deal with me.“After seeing
“Other than being Young Master Amos’ right-hand man…“He’s also the Great Wall of Adenar Temple! His strength is on par with a God of War!“Adenar Temple’s been discreet all these years, but it’s definitely stronger than Aenar Temple!“Everything Stinger said about himself is also true!“It’d be easy for him to slay Gods of War, let alone Kings of Arms.“I’m afraid you’re in big trouble now, Sir York.”Harvey York stepped forward before tapping on Ledger York’s face, putting more force on his palm every time.“So, you sold me out because the sects are powerful, and Stinger’s strong…“Since I went against the sects, then it’s only natural that I have ways to put them to the ground.“I won’t kill you today, but I want you to relay something for me.“It doesn’t matter if you tell Amos or Stinger…“They better make sure they know what’s good for themselves.“If not, I wouldn’t mind turning every single sect into a graveyard.”-“Who does that bastard think he is?!“How dare
“I don’t have a way to cause Harvey trouble directly…“But Ledger, that old bastard, decided to go against you too!“I’ll take down the York family!“The family will become Young Master Amos’ lackey!“Consider that as repayment for you and Young Master Amos.“I wouldn’t be able to live with myself if I didn’t do that!“After all, I…”Crack!Before he could finish his sentence, Stinger reached out to grab Welt York’s neck while slowly applying more force over time.“Guh!“What are you doing, Stinger…?”Welt’s face was as pale as a ghost. He desperately tried to struggle but could only make noises from his mouth.“Do you really think I’m just a gullible child?“I know exactly how to deal with the situation and get an explanation back! I don’t need you to teach me how to do things!“You introduced Mandy to me…“Your master even got Harvey all the way here.“You think that I’d treat this as just a coincidence?“For the sake of your loyalty toward the young master, I ignore
About an hour later, Harvey York’s phone vibrated when a surge of texts came through.Harvey glanced before entering the lobby’s tea room using the presidential suite elevator.Dutch Cobb had already come with a stack of documents. As soon as he saw Harvey’s face, he respectfully bowed before him.Harvey chuckled before telling the staff to prepare two cups of tea. The two then had a joyful chatter.“How’s the investigation going?”Dutch showed a strange expression.“The sects have more than a thousand years’ history, Sir York. Information about them is extremely complicated. Separating the truths and lies in the documents would be hard.“Another thing, I’m afraid that you need to be more specific about which sect you’re trying to investigate so I can gather more information.”Harvey shrugged.“The York family got me to meet Stinger.“We didn’t have a pleasant time together.“Not only did I make Stinger kneel as an apology, I also made him slap himself many times.“It doesn
