“What? You’re not planning to refuse, are you?”Xyla squinted at Miley, the smile on her face becoming colder and colder.“You should know what’ll happen to the Surrey family if you do refuse.”Xyla was sure Miley would know her place as soon as she pointed that out.Harvey chuckled, and poured himself another cup of tea.“I’m sorry. Not just the Surrey family…“The Wolven Tribe and the four great tribes are working under me right now. You want to lay your hands on the Surrey family? I’m afraid you’ll have to go through me first.”“They’re working under you?”Xyla showed a look of understanding.“You’re Harvey York. The man who won the competition in the oasis… The expert from America, Salem, lost against you too. Am I right?”Xyla didn’t mention anything about Stinger at all; she only said all that just for Emil to hear. As expected, Emil’s expression changed slightly when he was initially ready to watch the show. He sized up Harvey with a horrible expression before finall
Xyla chuckled after hearing Emil’s words.“Give up, Harvey. You can’t protect Miley. She has nothing to do with you, no matter how we look at it.“This is the sect’s business! If you’re still going to get involved, then don’t blame us if you actually die for it!”Harvey sighed. “So after the Smalt Sect starts working together with Evermore… You people think you’re very impressive, huh?“Well, I have a question… Emil’s clearly from America. His father’s not actually Roue of the Twelve Earthly Branches, right?”“You know Roue?” Emil frowned, then looked at Harvey fiercely. “Looks like you’re no ordinary man either, kid…but it’s a shame, you forgot something.”Harvey smiled. “And what’s that?”“People who know too much die quicker.”Emil licked his lips.“I only wanted to cripple you at first. Since you know I’m from Evermore and who Roue actually is… I have no choice but to kill you now!”The Americans behind Emil slowly stepped forward.Harvey was confused. “You actually
Everyone instinctively looked at Emil.‘He can’t get it up with a single blue pill? He’s not taking drugs anymore! He’s playing with his life!’Xyla showed an odd gaze; she tried to control herself, but she couldn’t help but smirk.‘If that’s the case, then he should just cut it off at this point!’Emil glared at Harvey, confused, ignoring everyone else’s gaze. Harvey’s deductions were spot on.He took a deep breath before finally speaking up. “How did you know?”Harvey was just an ant he could crush easily…but now, his value was priceless.Harvey said he had no medical skill…but seeing through Emil’s sickness was enough to prove his strength.“I can see it with my own eyes. This only happened because you went berserk; you wanted to increase your strength by skipping steps.“The martial art you trained in must be suitable for people with a colder temperature. That’s why you’ve been suffering a cold for a long time. “I don’t know what genius told you to deal with the problem
“Enough!” Emil said to Xyla, and her expression changed. He then stepped in front of Harvey.“I was ignorant, Sir York. Please forgive me!“As long as you’re willing to help me… You can ask for anything you want! I guarantee nobody will come for you for what happened today!”Emil was filled with hope as he subtly threatened Harvey.Harvey smiled, and sipped his tea.“You wanted me dead and buried in the desert… And now, you want me to save you? Are you joking with me, Emil? What’s with the attitude? Is this how you ask for help?”Emil’s expression changed, and he gritted his teeth. “What would you like me to do, then?”Harvey pointed at Xyla. “I don’t like her. Kill her. A life for a life.”“How dare you?!” Xyla screamed. She gritted her teeth.“You want me dead? Do you think Young Master Emil would believe you just because you said so? This is a greedy bastard, Young Master Emil! You know this!“He can’t save you! That’s why he wants you to go against me! He wants to see c
Xyla instinctively looked at Harvey. “What did you do?!”Everyone gasped; they all knew that Harvey didn’t even get close to Emil, let alone touch him… Despite that, Emil still fell to the ground.‘This is insane! If Harvey managed to kill someone like this, then who can go against him?!‘Only legends of the Island Nations and the South Sea have assassination tactics similar to this!‘People of Country H are fair and honest! Talks of people being killed this way have never been mentioned!’“I didn’t do anything.” Harvey shrugged. “The cold in his body just invaded his heart. Medicine won’t help him.”“You…”Just then, Xyla thought of something.When Harvey told Emil to press his rib, there must have been some trick involved. Harvey must’ve fooled Emil into crippling himself.Why would Harvey choose to save Emil when the two were standing on opposite sides?And despite that, Emil chose to trust Harvey.What a joke!Xyla desperately wanted to slap Harvey to death.But if Har
Xyla and the others froze, and finally understood.Talking to Harvey was just a waste of time.It’d be way easier to cripple him instead. His life would be in their hands. He’d have no choice but to obey!“Fuck!”The man chuckled coldly; he naturally knew who Welt was.He stood up; as soon as he did that, his muscles started to bulge and his white coat instantly exploded. His well-defined muscles instantly turned green. His eyes were bloodshot eyes, and he looked as if he had lost his rationale.He charged right toward Harvey, and the simple move was enough to shake the entire earth.This was a Giant—a type of Mutant from America.Harvey watched him curiously; changing one’s muscles through genetic science resembled divine power. Genetic science was a little stronger than what Harvey initially thought.Even so, he had no intention of taking action; all he did was show a little interest.Romina’s expression changed, and she waved her hand; she and a dozen sacrificial soldiers
Bam, bam, bam!A single glance was enough for the man to stumble back.He created quite a lot of distance from Harvey, too.Everyone could tell that the seemingly invincible being was scared witless, as if he had met his arch-nemesis.Xyla and the others were dumbfounded; they didn’t know what was going on.Normally speaking, this man would never be scared of anything. After all, Giants were made with Northern European Berserkers as inspiration. They were mindless killing machines with no sense of fear.And yet, this man seemed horrified.‘What’s going on? Harvey didn’t do anything, did he?‘He only gave a single glance! What’s there to be scared about?‘What a joke!’An unbelievable thought came to Xyla’s mind.She knew Harvey was a capable man…but no matter how strong he was, one’s strength could only be determined after getting into a fight.Harvey only looked at the Giant, and the Giant stumbled back.This didn’t make sense!“Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!”The man came to his se
Not only did a mere fork penetrate the defenses he prided himself in, he was also left in a life-or-death situation.Instantly, his face went pale. He fell into a corner, panting for air. No matter how resentful he was, he had no other choice but to remain still.Everyone was shocked to see it.‘A fork?! All he used was a fork!‘That was enough to take down a Mutant? That man’s completely invincible!‘That’s… That’s just insane!’Welt’s entire body was shivering in fear as soon as he saw this.He knew Harvey was scary, but not to this extent. Judging from what happened, it’d be all too easy for Harvey to take him out.He instantly retreated to the back of the crowd without saying a single word.Harvey probably didn’t care about him at first… But if Harvey decided to kill him on a whim, he wouldn’t get a chance to survive.“How dare you cripple our important guest?! You have no laws!”Xyla quickly calmed herself down after her initial shock.Having seen everything, she could
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
