Neil and Yasmin Osborne rushed to the people’s hospital immediately after getting word.Yasmin understood the situation better through her daughter, Kali Howell.Quincy Osborne grew up in the outskirts. Her love for martial arts outweighed anything that girls would typically love. She had been training in martial arts behind Neil’s back for the longest time.And after going to Wolsing, she felt even more in place.She sought well-known masters and learned all sorts of things.Other people would focus on a specific martial art before coming up with styles of their own…However, her energy was completely cluttered because she trained herself through multiple methods.That said, the so-called experts would usually go easy on her since she was from the Osborne family.Quincy felt as if she was unrivaled amongst the younger generation.After returning to Flutwell, she excitedly went to the Longmen Budokan to take down everyone there.Since Kali and Yasmin Osborne were away, nobody
“How’s my daughter, Director Courtney?” asked Neil Osborne after nodding at her in acknowledgment.“Is there a way to cure her?“As long as you bring her back to normal by any means, I’ll agree to any of your conditions.”Yasmin Osborne briefly thought about the situation.“You can take away her energy as well.“If it helps with her injuries, then I can lend a hand too.”Neil frowned before lightly nodding.He knew that his daughter’s training was important to her.That said, nothing was more important than preserving her life.“No!Courtney took a deep breath before showing a stern expression.“I’m not an expert martial artist, but I also have some knowledge of martial arts.“Mrs. Yasmin, Quincy’s situation is indeed caused by the cluttered energy inside her…“But the same energy is the only thing keeping her alive.“If we take it away, there’s a big chance that it’ll kill her.“We can’t just do nothing either. If this keeps up, she’ll only have three days to live.“Sh
“There’ll be a new plan the day after tomorrow!“Maybe we’ll finally save Quincy by then!“Then again, there’s no guarantee about that either.”Courtney Lloyd frowned.“A new plan?“Maybe?“You’re saying there’s no guarantee?Neil Osborne showed a stern expression.“Stop trying to fool me with the story you use to trick others!“No need to set me up either!“I want results!“If my daughter dies, I’ll make sure that the hospital gets investigated thoroughly!“All the bad apples will pay for this!”Neil looked fierce.If a fair and just man like him were to be reckless, his authority would be unimaginable.Everyone would do everything in their power to get his favor.If that were to happen, many people working at the people’s hospital would be sent to jail.Courtney and the other medical staff could not help but shudder. They naturally knew about this as well.She took a deep breath before she glanced at Yasmin Osborne.“We’ll do our best.“But this is a hospital!“W
Neil Osborne sipped his tea before speaking.“What do you mean?”Yasmin Osborne stared at the ceiling for a long while.“Since a martial artist caused the problem in the first place, all we need to do is find someone from the same field…“Quincy’s biggest problem is her cluttered energy. Her heart might be crushed because of this.“Not just Courtney, the other doctors also probably can’t do anything about this.“Even the ones well-known for their medical skills and martial arts wouldn’t change anything…“Instead, we can stop wasting time and look at it from another perspective.”“What are you trying to say?”“I’m saying you can just get an expert martial artist to deal with this.“I know who can help us! I swear on my life!“Harvey York!” exclaimed Yasmin with a stern expression.“Based on my understanding, he doesn’t have any medical skill, but he’s an expert martial artist who understands the art of killing.“He even opened a Budokan back in Flutwell and saved many peopl
Midnight.Courtney Lloyd held her laptop while taking a deep breath before pushing the VIP lounge door.Neil Osborne was resting his eyes while his hands were on his knees.His usually well-kempt hair was in a complete mess.He raised his head while glancing around with his bloodshot eyes after hearing footsteps coming his way.“Can my daughter be saved?” he asked with a deep voice.Courtney showed a horrible expression.“We’ve tried everything we can, Mr. Neil.“That said, the three plans we formulated don’t even have a thirty percent success rate!“We wouldn’t dare take any action!“We suggest that you find an expert well-versed in both medical skill and martial arts to help.”“Aren’t you people doing just that?” Neil asked coldly.Courtney bitterly chuckled.“We did, but those people decided not to show up after hearing about your daughter’s condition.“They said they’re not confident in saving her.“Instead of wasting our time, they’d rather refuse to help.”“So, ar
Around ten minutes later, Harvey York sat in the backseat of Yasmin Osborne’s Toyota Alphard.Yasmin quickly filled Harvey in with everything that happened, including her relationship with Neil Osborne and how Quincy Osborne got hurt in the first place.Harvey had never met Quincy before, but he could tell the Smalt Sect was behind all this.Naturally, evidence was needed to determine whether this was Amos Augustus trying to sell a favor or Stefan Augustus was simply showing his dominance.Quincy’s situation had nothing to do with Harvey, but he had to show some respect to Yasmin anyway.The car was speedy. Harvey arrived at the people’s hospital after around ten minutes.Yasmin led Harvey to the ICU instead of meeting Neil at the lounge to prevent conflict.Harvey peered at the beautiful woman with a pale face through a large window.“I know this has nothing to do with you, Sir York.“It’s safe to say that my brother is not fond of you either.“That’s the way he is! Please,
Courtney Lloyd suddenly waved her hand, stopping Yasmin Osborne from talking before strutting forward in high heels.“What’s the chance of success, kid?” she asked coldly, her arms crossed.“A hundred percent.”“Tch! Young people nowadays…“Every single one of you only knows how to show off without doing any honest work!Courtney’s face was disdainful when she pointed at Harvey with her nose.“The people’s hospital already did the research. We need expert martial artists with medical skills to have a chance at curing Quincy!“I already contacted many expert martial artists, but they wouldn’t even dare come after hearing about the situation! They’re afraid of embarrassing themselves!“And yet a child like you is talking this big!“Do you really think we’d be fooled by some random nobody?“You would’ve been well-known in the martial arts world already if you’re actually as impressive as you claim you are! Everyone in Country H would’ve recognized you by now!“Then again, I don
Yasmin Osborne could not help but speak after hearing those words.“Courtney!“You’re just a doctor!“Do you even know martial arts?!“You should stop pretending!”“I don’t know martial arts, but I’m a good judge of character!“He’s a conman no matter how you look at him!”“Trust me, Neil! Sir York…”“Enough!”Neil Osborne looked stern when he made his final verdict.“I know I shouldn’t let someone like Harvey help. I don’t need you to remind me, Director Courtney.“I simply don’t believe a young man like him to be capable!“I would never trust a random nobody with my daughter’s life either.”After thinking of the previous incident with Harvey…If he could save Neil’s daughter, their relationship would be muddied even further.“I don’t know how you managed to get my sister’s trust, kid…” said Neil, coldly glaring at Harvey.“But I’m telling you this right now!“I don’t want anything to do with you!“We have nothing to do with each other, nor will we have anything to d
"I'll give you ten minutes to walk out of there without your clothes on! If you do that, I won't kill anymore of your bodyguards. If you're still not here in ten minutes, then I'm sorry, but the flames will consume you. I'll remember to visit you at your grave next year!" Sora laughed strangely after that.Everyone who heard his laughter could only feel a chill in their bones as they felt disgusted. Mandy's expression became even darker. She did not refuse him immediately, though. While she knew he was playing a game of cat and mouse, those ten minutes might just be enough to save them.-At the same time. Outside of the manor. Sora and his group of confidantes had already arrived at the entrance of the manor. He narrowed his eyes and looked at the terrace. After he waved his hands, his confidante spread out and sealed the remaining entrances.Next to Sora was a swordsman with a mustache. His eyes were full of spirit. It was obvious that he was an elite, the kind who could crush al
"Watch out!" It was at this time when Seven suddenly pulled Mandy over to the side, as his expression darkened. At the same time, one of the pieces of ballistic glass shook and fell on the floor. Then, bolts that seemed like rain stormed into the terrace, falling right where Mandy was standing.If it was not because of Seven's quick actions, Mandy might have already become a human pincushion. She was immediately covered in cold sweat. While she had personally grown and become a successful businesswoman, she had never been in many of these kinds of life and death situations.Whoosh!It was as if the people outside had noticed an opening, they continuously fired the Repeating Crossbow. As they did that, one of the bodyguards who could not dodge in time collapsed on the ground as he held his thigh. A bolt pierced through his thigh, and he immediately lost his ability to fight.Mandy quickly said, "Quick! Drag him over! It's too dangerous over there!"The two bodyguards trembled, and
"Ms. Mandy, you should run now! Run from the back! I can still hold them up for about 15 minutes!" Seven said in a bitter voice as he peeked outside from the door's gap from inside the manor. "If you don't, we won't be able to escape once they rush in. We're almost out of ammo. If we don't fight our way out, we'll all end up dead!"Mandy hesitated a little when she saw how Seven was becoming somewhat concerned and said, "Sure. We'll leave from the back door. But they're here for me. I can't escape. All of you should go and I'll cover you!"Mandy's expression was resolute. Seven was slightly stunned before saying, "Don't joke about something like that, Ms. Mandy. While I'm not one of your followers, but as a bodyguard of the Jeans of Mor'du, there's no way I can escape before you have safely retreated. If I do that, not only will I be unable to face the family, but I also won't be able to face myself and stay in this world!"All the bodyguards exchanged looks and said, "That's right,
The young man in the white suit was not that old. He was at least in his mid-twenties. However, his cheeks were somewhat red. It was obvious that years of excessive drinking and womanizing have left him too depleted for anything to be able to help him. But even then, he still looked in front with greed and obsession, as if wanting to push the woman in the manor to the ground and tear her apart.It was obvious that this man was the scion of the Origin Sword Style, Sora Yamamoto.Sora did not think much about the death of the Origin Sword Style elites. He did not even feel much about their death, as if their death had nothing to do with him."Sir, it's not that the woman is strong. It's the simple fact that no one expected her to have the Royal Flush with her… And she has plenty of it too. From the results of us testing her, the woman isn't saving the Royal Flush for something else when she had her bodyguards use them. I suspect that she had an unlimited supply of it.""You idiot!" S
"Too weak," Harvey sighed. In the next instant, he lifted his right foot and planted it on a broken piece of rock. Instantly, the rock shot out and headed straight to Sverker's throat. It was obvious that Harvey did not wish to leave the Origin Sword Style's number one elite alive."You fool…!" Sverker's entire soul was shuddering as he could feel Death coming for him. He let out a roar and all the energy within his body started to flow, wanting to use that to stop Harvey's attack. However, his thoughts were faster than he could act.The moment he wanted to fight back, he could feel the taste of blood in his mouth. The small rock had already pierced through his throat. In that instant, Sverker's thoughts instantly stopped as he lost the strength to struggle. Then, he collapsed on the ground just like that.There was anger, despair, and even doubt in his eyes.He could not believe that as an elite of the Origin Sword Style, as one of the few most powerful men in Sky Plane, how he en
When the palm strike was going to reach Sverker, Harvey changed his palm strike into a finger strike. He flicked his finger at the edge of the blade.Clank!"Gah!"Sverker seemed shocked as his body shook. There was even blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. He was in a terrible state as he took a few steps back."Mr. Sverker!" All the women cried out at the same time, with shocked expressions. They could not believe that not only did Harvey manage to easily block the legendary Three Slashes, but most importantly he was able to force Sverker some distance back with just the flick of his finger!He was beyond terrifying!"Damn you, kid! Do you think this is my full power?" Sverker's temper was at boiling point after the continuous failures as he gritted his teeth. "I will send you to Hell with all three slashes fused into one!""I better be the one sending you to Hell. I'm already bored with your sword technique," replied Harvey casually. Before Sverker could even attack,
"Your life is worth so little and you want to drag us along to hell? Who do you think you are? All of you are just the same! Selfish to the core!" the woman yelled at Harvey. It was clear that no matter what Harvey did, she wouldn't like it.Harvey glanced at her and said, "We can forget a moment about how your Mr. Sverker is the one who wanted to die alongside me out of shame and anger, let's talk about you. Who else can you blame but yourself by wasting time here instead of running? Not to mention, he can't do anything to me even if he can slash time and the universe."You have overestimated Sverker. He's nothing but trash. I simply wanted to see how powerful the Sword Style Origin's technique is." Harvey then gave Sverker a look. "But at this level, I can easily dispel it with just one strike.""You…" Sverker was so angry that he shuddered. He wasn't going to waste any more time. He gritted his teeth and once again slashed at where Harvey was standing."Timely Slash!"A
"Is that right?" Harvey asked the woman.He looked at Sverker's dark expression."Oh, he's being that nice? Why not give me a few more concessions? Why don't you go easy on me and miss all three slashes?""Damn you! Damn you all!" Sverker's expression turned dark by Harvey's snickering. He pounced forward again. In just an instant, he already appeared before Harvey. His body suddenly swayed and separated into eight afterimages; all of them instantly slashed from all eight directions."Earthly Slash!"Whoosh!As Sverker made that attack, a screeching sound filled the entire marsh. Sverker attacked Harvey like a flash of lightning. The moment the blade almost reached Harvey, a dreadful aura expanded from it, as if a black light was covering the surface of the blade.The attack seemed to have come from the depths of Hell itself, carrying the wrath of countless ghosts.Harvey's expression was cold as his fist turned into a palm strike, and he attacked straight ahead. His attack w
"Idiot!" Sverker smiled coldly as his figure flashed as he pounced forth like a bolt of lightning. The sword in his hand was immediately pulled out from its sheath, like a shooting star across the sky.Compared to the attack just now, this attack was simply and much more direct. There wasn't even much strength behind it. However, those in the know would know that an attack like this was the most powerful.Sverker believed he could easily kill Harvey on the spot."So what if you defeated all the six schools? So what if you defeated all the prodigies from Country I? So what if you defeated Mark?" Sverker smiled coldly as he attacked. "All the so-called True Warriors were joking to me… Because I am the one who kills True Warriors!" Sverker smiled coldly as he unleashed his first strike."Heavenly Slash!" A scarlet light suddenly flashed through Sverker's blade. Harvey raised his head; the attack that was going to split the sky had arrived. Before the blade even reached h
