Bam!Before Harvey even finished his words, Yousef suddenly slammed his knees to the ground.“The Hunt family did not forget what you said, Sir York!” he exclaimed while gritting his teeth, ignoring everyone else around him.“The master wanted to be the one to beg for your help…“But he simply couldn’t leave the old lady!“He said that as long as you’re willing to lend aid, the family will owe you a favor no matter if you succeed or not!“The family will all kneel to greet you as well…”-Half an hour later, Harvey arrived at the Hunt family’s manor.Before coming here, he made it clear that he didn’t want the family to kneel as a greeting. After all, the people had already humbled themselves enough.Besides, Harvey wasn’t confident enough to deal with the old lady’s current situation anyway.Yousef quickly took Harvey inside the manor; he was on a call while he explained the situation to Harvey.“Something happened when I went to fetch you, Sir York.“The old lady suddenl
Veer was the current person in charge of the Hunt family.And yet, he still kneeled in front of such a young man. The prideful members of the family didn’t know how they should react to the sight.The people here were all direct descendants of the family. A mere relative like Kylan was simply inferior compared to them.These direct descendants were elites respected by others.And yet, even someone like Veer kneeled. It was clear the sight had made a huge impact to their minds.“Please.”Harvey quickly lifted Veer.“All things aside, your kindness alone is enough for me to help. Besides, Ethan’s my brother as well!”Veer hesitated for a moment.“If you can save my mother, I will swear in my name… That Ethan will surely rise to power in the family!”“You’re too kind.”Harvey smiled calmly. “But don’t forget: he’s a God of War. If he’s willing to take charge… The family would be the one benefitting; not him.”Veer froze before showing a profound gaze.As Harvey said, if Eth
The old lady froze in place.Paislee slowly regained her calm. She felt a little proud, and looked around her.Marlee stumbled off the ground. “What happened to the old lady, Ms. Paislee?”Paislee’s face darkened.“I suspect that your old lady’s been possessed. Normally speaking, the Lycan Pill should be able to deal with any problem!“Other than being possessed, there isn’t any other explanation!“But don’t worry! The House of Priests specializes in exorcism.“Take a look! Approach in battle, march in formation!”Paislee made a different gesture as she slammed her palm on the old lady’s heart, looking as if she was instantly planning to crush the evil spirit.“Heh!”The old lady chuckled oddly, then swung her hand furiously.Paislee was slapped in the face. She was sent flying, and blood came right out of her mouth; she couldn’t even muster her strength to get back up as she landed.The people of the House of Priests looked at each other; they wouldn’t dare set foot in fro
Veer came to his senses soon after. He instantly went to his mother, and put his fingers on her wrist.“She’s not dead! My mother’s not dead!” he exclaimed in a trembling voice. “Sir York! If you can calm her down, you can save her too! Please!”Harvey threw his knife aside before squinting at the old lady.“Prepare a quiet room. Let me take a look there.”Paislee and the others snapped out of their confusion when people were about to bring the old lady to her bedroom.Suppressing the old lady with ease was enough to tell just how impressive Harvey was.“We can’t bring her back to her bedroom. She can’t stay here either,” he said, waving his hand. “Let’s switch places.”The people looked at each other, and the old lady was then lifted into the security room.Harvey quickly got someone to bring him a set of needles, and poked the old lady’s fingers with them.Under everyone’s gaze, black smoke with an extremely foul stench seeped out of her fingers. The old lady’s face finally
Veer quickly approached Harvey, and held his hand.“Harvey! From now on, the Hunt family is in your debt! If there’s something that you want, then there’s no need to hold back! Just know, the family will always repay the favor.”Harvey nodded.“You’re too kind. This is nothing.“That said…“Your mother’s saved, but the underlying danger of your family is still here. If we don’t deal with it immediately, there’ll be more trouble soon enough.”Veer froze as he stared at Harvey. “You’re saying…?”Harvey squinted at the building in front of him.Veer showed a curious gaze, then looked over in the direction of Harvey’s gaze.“Is there something wrong with that place, Harvey? I lived there before. I let my mother stay there instead when she came back.”“You lived there?”Harvey’s gaze turned severe. “Looks like your mother protected you from your doom this time. Someone came for you. If you believe me, you should empty out the building as soon as you can.”Veer froze.“Why’s t
After dealing with the Hunt family’s incident, Harvey went back to the five-star hotel.Aside from asking Yvonne to send him information about the Country H Commercial Group, he also asked for detailed documents about the coming martial arts tournament as well.Normally speaking, Harvey would be notified first about such a massive event, but he didn’t know about it until recently. It didn’t seem like anyone planned to contact him in the first place.He wanted to see what the Martial Arts Alliance was doing.After reading all the documents, Harvey smiled faintly. The tournament wasn’t as simple as he thought.Other than choosing the champion of the younger generation’s martial artists, there was a more important reason.They wanted to get a different representative!To the Martial Arts Alliance, Harvey was simply an outsider.Because of his immense reputation before, the higher-ups of the Martial Arts Alliance and the sacred martial arts training grounds had no choice but to a
Four o’clock in the afternoon.A Porsche Panamera was parked in front of the five-star hotel. That said, a car of that caliber wasn’t all that impressive either compared to the hotel.The window rolled down. A young woman in her twenties was seen in the car with casual clothes and a pair of sunglasses.A lot of her face was covered by the big sunglasses, but her figure and temperament were quite extraordinary. Along with the nice car, she had attracted quite a lot of attention around her.The woman casually raised a banner with Harvey’s name on it.Harvey didn’t like such a high-profile way of doing things, but he only let out a single sigh to voice his discontent.“Hello.”The woman took off her sunglasses, revealing the shock on her beautiful face. She sized up Harvey for a moment, then glanced at the Rolex on his wrist.“You’re Harvey? The youngest member of the council?”“That’s me.” Harvey nodded. “You’re my personal secretary—Zhuri Vaus?”Harvey figured out the secretar
The car was dead silent the entire trip. The Porche came to a quiet path approximately an hour after driving down the viaduct.A manor thousands of acres big was found at the end of the path.Every single luxury car could be seen with gorgeous-looking people.This was the city suburbs, but every single corner was perfectly decorated with luxury and wealth in mind.Harvey York squinted momentarily before figuring something out. Other than being a simple restaurant and a banquet venue…This was also a resort that was established for people from the upper social circle.After all, ordinary people would not require a racecourse and golf courts.It was safe to say that only the top-rated people in Wolsing could spend their money here.After seeing Harvey squinting at the sight before him, Zhuri Vaus thought Harvey was just a country bumpkin who was severely culture shocked.She scoffed before speaking in a very prideful tone.“This is the Royal Manor, an extremely high-class estab
Shortly, a ninja in black garb appeared not far away in front of them. He was the scout sent to investigate ahead. The scout's figure appeared right before Djinn. He bowed and said, "Lord Djinn."Djinn coldly asked, "How's the situation ahead?"The scout whispered, "I've confirmed that Geoffrey has joined the Grand City's Seven Families Joint Meeting. Three-fourths of the Universal Sect's elites had gone to the meeting. I have also confirmed that the place Neve stayed in, a courtyard at the back, isn't that strictly guarded. Our people have already hacked the security cameras in our route. We can immediately enter."Then, the scout quickly took out his tablet and showed Djinn some videos and pictures. Djinn looked at them and could not help but exclaim, "Good. Very good. Then let's do this together. Everyone, remember that we must finish this as quickly as possible. Our objective is to kill Neve and ignore everyone else. Understand?"Djinn's tone was low and serious."Yes!" All th
"That should work," said Coco after considering it. "I never liked Neve for the longest time. If we can pin her death on Vaida and Harvey, there's no harm to me at all. But we can't use anyone from Parkerville, so I'll need to make some arrangements…""No need for that," Dan said. "No matter how weak the Fosters are, they're still one of the Seven Families of Grand City. No one can touch them if one doesn't give them their all. It's best to get Sverker or Ghostface to kill her. I've been sealing all the entrances so far and not letting the people from Sky Plane enter. I believe they're very willing to cooperate if I simply ask for a favor."Dan gave it a deep thought after a while. Then, he smiled and said, "Right, I'll personally inform Clarion about this. Telling him that his beloved is in danger. I wonder, will it be Harvey's fault again if Clarion went to save her without making any preparations and ended up dying?"Coco's expression was merciless when she heard Dan's plans, thi
When Coco heard what Dan had to say, she gave him an expectant look. "Dan, when you finally become mayor, I'll be more than just the princess of Parkerville. I will be the princess of the entire Grand City! Let's see who dares to cross me then!"Then, Dan smiled gently at Coco. "It's good that you finally understand this.""But, the problem is that I still can't let this go! Vaida and Harvey have crossed a line! How could they slap a face as pretty as mine? How ridiculous!" Coco held her still-swollen face, looking vicious."Not to mention, Vaida even wanted me to reimburse her for all the profit I had already taken from the restaurant! But am I supposed to give that up? I can't bear the loss of face!" Coco said as a cold glint appeared in her eyes. It was obvious that she was never going to let it slide."Do you really want to get revenge?" Dan asked after giving it a thought. "The only person who could officially keep the Seven Families under control was the Hierophant. You can t
"He might look like a simple man, but every time he benefits from something, it's always because of good luck. But when someone is always this lucky, then the luck becomes part of his power. In the past, I also believed that I could easily crush him. But the result? Just how much have we lost in Grand City? "Clarion, Durandal… Other than these two, how many more must we sacrifice? How many people must we lose? That's why when we're targeting him, whether we choose peace or war, we must think things through and consider the consequences. Otherwise, we might be in huge trouble if we're careless…"Obviously, Dan was learning from his past mistakes. After failing multiple times, he had a deep understanding of Harvey. Even if her most beloved sister was utterly humiliated, even if Parkerville was humiliated entirely, Dan still believed that he needed to be careful about this. Since no one could tell who would come up on top if this continued."Fine. Since we can't secretly attack or get
Just when Harvey and Alexei were shocked at the truth Vaida had revealed, Coco was back in her home. Not only was Coco still awake, but she was also pacing around Dan's room with an angered expression."Of course, I know he's the representative of the Martial Arts Alliance and also know that he's Vaida's so-called man of destiny. He even humiliated Sky Plane at the training hall earlier. And then, he even made that traitor Clarion turn on you after what happened at the casino."But are we supposed to be scared of him because of all this? Kill him! Kill him now! I believe with your power, you have all the means to make him suffer and die in Grand City! What right does an outsider have to show off like that in Grand City? Are you kidding me?!"Coco no longer had the charm and grace when she was outside. All that was on her beautiful face was a vengeful expression. She wished she could stomp on Harvey right now and kill him using her high heels.Dan ignored her and simply drank the ho
When Coco heard what Harvey had said, her face twisted in anger. She wished she could pounce at him and tear his flesh with her teeth. But the last of her conscience made her suppress her anger.All these years, she called herself the princess of Grand City and openly said she could one-up all the women in this city, becoming the so-called number one lady. As for Vaida, the former number one? Coco did not pay her much attention and simply treated her as a mental patient who was not even worth her time.But now, she needed to apologize to Vaida?At that moment, all Coco could feel was her utter suffocation. But if she refused to apologize, Harvey would not let her be. He might even slap her again.Meanwhile, if she called reinforcements from Dan and Parkerville, it might not be enough to suppress this fool. Not to mention, this might make her the laughingstock of Grand City.When those thoughts crossed her mind, Coco decided to suppress her anger and end this situation. Once this w
"Have you forgotten your promises to my older brother? Are you going to turn back on your promises?" Coco reminded Zoltan since he had already chosen a side, there were things that he had to do no matter what he thought about it.However, Zoltan had completely ignored Coco. His expression changed a few times before he finally bowed and said, "My apologies, Mr. Harvey. I didn't recognize you for who you are."The moment Coco opened her mouth, Zoltan was 100 percent sure Harvey was indeed who he claimed he was. The Representative of Country H Martial Arts Alliance, the Chairman of Country H Commercial Group, the Scion of Dragon Gate, Prince of South Light… But most importantly, he had utterly defeated Mark of Origin Fist and even the Second Branch owed him a great debt.All of this was enough for him to show respect toward Harvey.Most importantly, he was part of the Second Branch. He could choose to stand with Dan, but he could never go against the family's will. Otherwise, there wa
Crack!Zoltan heard a loud crack before he could even pull the Repeating Crossbow's trigger. Harvey had already snapped the Repeating Crossbow in half using just one hand after touching it.Harvey did not care about the disbelief on Zoltan's face. He raised his leg and immediately kicked him in his stomach. The attack was very powerful. While Zoltan was also a martial arts elite, he stumbled backward despite trying his best to keep himself under control.Coco, Tina, and the others all looked at this moment in surprise. While everything Harvey did so far had been arrogant, it was still quite challenging for them to believe he was still being so haughty before the person in charge of the Peacekeeping Agency.Typically, no one would have done something like this, even if they wanted to die. Harvey would pay an unimaginable price for all his arrogant actions thus far.Zoltan, who had just taken office, would not stop until Harvey was dead to protect his power and status. And just as e
Coco felt like she finally had someone to cling to when she saw Zoltan walking in with a stern expression, accompanied by his men with metallic weapons and Martial Arts Weapons on them.The fear on her face had disappeared entirely, leaving behind coldness and pride.She glanced at Harvey and said, "Zoltan, you're just in time. Belladonna Cult's Princess Vaida is sick again. Please send her to the mental health institute. Her sugar baby most likely took some sort of drugs… He even managed to injure Hereward and the others."Don't worry about this. Tell all your people to attack simultaneously and punish him according to our city's law. Remember, our city is a city of fairness. Punish them according to our laws. You can't show him leniency just because of Vaida!"Coco stood in the middle of the chamber with her hands folded in front of her chest. She stood there giving out commands, coming off as overbearing and egotistical. It was as if everything within Grand City was hers to comm
