"Oh, right. To be honest, I managed to become a True Warrior all thanks to you, Mr. Harvey," said Mitsuki as she remembered something and wanted to taunt Harvey."Originally, all the youths like us would take decades before we could become true warriors, no matter how talented we were or how many resources we had. But what can we do when the Island Nation suddenly makes a powerful enemy? He alone almost destroyed the entire Six Schools!"That enemy of ours even became the representative of Country H Martial Arts Alliance and even made it into one of the Five Great Directors of the World Martial Arts Alliance! Everything he did made the martial arts community in our nation tremble in their boots."Especially when you say something about having a summit in our beloved Mount Hearth when spring comes and the flowers bloom. Everyone knows that if you manage to climb Mount Hearth, you will obliterate our current generation and create a generation gap. We have worked so hard for decades be
"What if I say I won't?" said Harvey to Mitsuki. After talking so much, she finally showed her true colors."You won't?" Mitsuki revealed a faint smile."If you refuse to accept our kind offer, then I suppose we'll have to fight at the Apex of the Forbidden City. But before that, we will first pay someone a visit. People like Mandy and Xynthia Zimmer, Kait Walker, Queenie York, Kairi Patel…"The smile on Mitsuki's lips deepened more and more after every name she mentioned.Harvey's eyes turned cold, and he immediately threw the coffee cup in his right hand straight toward Mitsuki's forehead. Typically speaking, he would not have attacked Mitsuki in a place like this. However, she crossed the line.The reason she came here was to force Harvey to surrender. From another perspective, it also showed how the Islanders were fearful of Harvey. Otherwise, they would not have done that when they already had four True Warriors on their side.When Mitsuki saw Harvey attacked, she smiled gen
"However, Shingen belongs only to me. But for his great work, I have no choice but to stop myself for now. But once he gets what he wants, I will personally kill that woman so she can see you in Hell. Even if you two can't sleep together, it's pretty romantic to be buried together!" said Mitsuki as she winked at Harvey and got inside her Toyota Century."Darn it! No need for you to lift a finger, Sir. I'll kill them myself!" Tyson was the one to open his mouth and was about to charge the Islanders.Harvey simply waved his hand and said, "No rush. The main reason she's here is to stir me up. If I fight her in this place, I'll be in trouble no matter if I win or lose."Tyson was stunned. "What do you mean?"Harvey then explained, "I've only realized it just now. Mitsuki kept taunting me from when she appeared to the final moment she left. It seems like she wants me to fight her when I'm angry. The kind where someone has to die."But I've already promised to fight them at the Forbidd
When Harvey said that, the slender young man simultaneously flicked his right hand. Something resembling a pail appeared right on top of Harvey. However, it immediately released thousands of strands, and they descended right on top of him. Whatever that thing was, it was swift and carried the faint scent of blood.That was the Sanguine Droplet the Iron Blood Emperor from the Whip Dynasty had created.According to legends, during the Iron Blood Emperor's reign, wherever he went, he could use the Sanguine Droplet to suppress the Sacred Martial Arts Training Ground completely.However, even when facing a weapon as terrifying as the Sanguine Droplet, Harvey had a calm expression as he stomped on the ground, causing a blast. The tiles on the ground immediately cracked, and pieces of tiles and rock shot up into the air like lightning.The Sanguine Droplet crashed into the rocks and tiles, making terrible sounds echoing in the alley with sparks flying in the air.The first round between
"Well, if I'm being honest with you, you really should tell them to stop," said Harvey smilingly. "Dying alone is much better than getting everyone killed, right? That way, no one's going to attend your funeral after this. That's not good. Not to mention that you can challenge me thanks to the approval from the Elder Group."However, they never got the approval, did they? If that's the case, according to the rules of the alliance, those who attacked me are showing disrespect to their direct superior. They're going to get punished for this, you know?"Frederick sneered back at him. "You're lecturing us about the rules? Of course, we know about the rules. Unfortunately, no one from the enforcers is here, so no one can help you. That said, if you're that skilled, you can just beat us all up. Then, all of us will be under your control, right?""You said so much but in the end, you don't even dare to face me on your own," Harvey said with a sigh. "A lone woman from the Shinto Way is cour
When the assassins saw how easily Harvey managed to dispatch them despite their numbers, they all felt a chill down their spine. They instinctively took steps back, worried they would become living targets.When the assassins realized they were simultaneously stepping away, their expressions darkened. It was the first time they had met someone so hard to deal with since they had joined the underworld.Even Frederick, who knew how terrifying Harvey could be, did not expect Harvey would actually be this frightening.He finally realized why Madden from the Elder Group hinted to him that he could do whatever he wanted when he made his move. That was because if he were to challenge Harvey openly, Frederick believed he was no match against Harvey.50 moves… No, he would already lose in 10 moves at most."How unfortunate you're not someone from the Sacred Martial Arts Training Ground. Otherwise, with you leading us, the Martial Arts Alliance would no doubt reach its pinnacle soon," said
"Becoming an immortal once one reaches the end of the path?" It was the first time that Harvey had heard something like that, but he quickly recomposed himself."Whether there are immortals or not is irrelevant since they only exist in legend. What if they do exist? When I'm around, no one can beat me if he's not an immortal. Even if he is immortal, I can confidently say I can trade my life for his."As for you, Frederick. You're in no position to lecture me. Let's see, I want to thank you for telling me this secret. If you grovel before me, I can let you leave this place alive.""Never!" Frederick was quite surprised at Harvey's boldness but could not surrender when things had already reached this point. He waved his hand again, and all those assassins gritted their teeth as they charged toward Harvey together.Harvey sighed and let go of the repeating crossbow in his hand. Then, he went inside the crowd, instantly throwing a few slaps.As the smacking sounds echoed, several figu
To Frederick, Harvey had to be at his limit already. Otherwise, would it not be a waste for him to make so many preparations and expend so much manpower and resources?Harvey shrugged. "The more you try to buy time, the more uneasy you become. You simply want to test if I'm at my limit. If you think I'm already at my limit, why don't you attack? Are you really that scared of me?"As if Frederick was enraged by Harvey's words, Frederick flicked his right hand and the Sanguine Droplet in his hand flew straight toward Harvey.The moment he hurled the Sanguine Droplet, it seemed to chant in vicious curses and blood-curdling screams.Harvey frowned, and he kicked a weapon up from the ground and picked it up. It was a machete. Then, he took a step forward and slashed the Sanguine droplet.There was a harsh clang as the blade of the machete hit the Sanguine Droplet, deflecting it away.At the same time, Harvey advanced once more and appeared right before Frederick. He was so fast that h
Half an hour later, in a lounge in the Foster estate.Harvey held Vaida's wrist with his right hand. After some time, he said, "Geoffrey, what's wrong with her? When I met her on the plane, while she was on the brink of going berserk, she could still control it. But now, the energy cycle within her was chaotic, and an outsider's energy couldn't easily enter."It's as if she's been losing control for many years. What's going on here? And how can you lie to her saying that I'm the man of her destiny? If I became her obsession or even her inner demon, it wouldn't do her any good to her martial arts training," Harvey said as he could not help but let out a sigh.Regardless of what happened, Vaida still fought with him on the plane. Harvey could not ignore what happened to her because of that.Geoffrey sighed. "There's something you don't know. Not only is Vaida the daughter of the previous mayor of Grand City, but the Hierophant also prophesied her to be the reincarnation of Grand City
"That's right!" exclaimed Geoffrey. "You should come down now or let him get closer to check up on you!""Geoffrey, Neve. We have known each other for so many years. I know you don't want me to leave," replied Vaida, sighing. "But, do you think I'll believe you when you look for a random man to be my man of destiny? If a fake can replace the one I seek, I won't be trying to find him for three lifetimes, right?"Please, just ignore me and let me go in peace. Even if you can save me now, can you save me forever?"Obviously, while Vaida had a mental breakdown, she no longer recognized Harvey and forgot what had happened between them, but she was still a wise woman. She could tell that Geoffrey and Neve dragged Harvey here so that she would not die."Vaida! Don't forget that you're the daughter of the previous mayor! In my heart, you’re the real princess of Grand City!" Geoffrey roared. "I swore to him all those years ago that I would find the man of your destiny. I won't lie about som
"No! There is! Not only are you fated to cross paths, but such a fate is inevitable!" Geoffrey suddenly cried out. "Vaida, I managed to do as promised and found the man who is your destiny when I went to Wolsing last time! That's him! He's the man of your destiny! I won't have any objection even if you want to make your marriage official!"Geoffrey immediately rushed over to Harvey and pushed Harvey to Vaida. Harvey was stunned when he heard it, his eye twitching.What?Something about being the man of her destiny?Geoffrey did not give Harvey any time to react and winked at Harvey. "Mr. Representative, why don't you go speak with Vaida? The two of you promised to be together for three lifetimes before the Rock of Fate! You shouldn't miss each other now that you've been reunited!"When Harvey heard what Geoffrey had said, he was full of questions. Although he could understand every word, he did not understand what Geoffrey meant by that. Even Neve was so shocked that she subconsci
After Geoffrey had left, Harvey then walked into the courtyard. He looked around. Once he was sure there were no hidden cameras, he got into the bathroom and showered. Then, he changed into a new outfit.Too many things happened while he was on his way here, and he had to review everything. Only then would he be able to see the big picture of what had happened today.After that, he found the beverages meant for him. Then, he walked to the courtyard's edge, looking at the faraway scenery. The courtyard was built by the hills and a water source. In addition to the bridges and streams, he could see the plains in the mountains. He could even see the grass swaying as the wind blew.At the edge of the grassy plains were steep cliffs. The Fosters had built several gazebo-like structures there, which were quite terrifying. Harvey was curious and gave these cliffs a better look. That should be the edge of Grand City. He could see an endless ocean with crashing waves from here.Harvey could
Harvey saw Geoffrey already waiting there when he alighted the car. When Geoffrey saw Harvey, he was apologetic about the entire matter. Harvey did not need to say anything, and Geoffrey walked over, saying, "Friend… No, Mr. Representative. We will give you an explanation that you'll be happy with."Feel free to stay in the Foster family's estate. If anything happens again, you do not need to say anything. Our family will take full responsibility for this!"Harvey sighed. "There's no need for this, Geoffrey. My visit to Grand City will affect plenty of people's interests. It's normal for them to try and stop me from coming no matter what.""It's not that you're affecting many people's interests. Most importantly, you have affected one faction's interests," Geoffrey said as he gestured and led Harvey into the estate. As he guided Harvey in, he said, "The entire Grand City now knows your reason for coming to Grand City is to take on the Three Halls. What you're doing is taking away
Harvey smiled. "It's fine. But you do have to give me an explanation. Of course, if you can't, I'll get one myself."After that, Harvey could not be bothered with the same topic. He looked at the stone door and asked, "Why don't you introduce this to me?"Neve was slightly taken aback but still answered, "You know that Grand City does not belong in this world. In short, it exists in its own pocket dimension. It was said that Grand City's creator created this pocket dimension after he had achieved unison with Nature and before he stepped into the void."This is one of the few entrances into the Grand City, but it's the only entrance that everyone from the city can use. If you have the city's entry pass, then you can freely travel in and out. Of course, if your ancestry is rooted in Grand City, you can also use it."Harvey nodded. He was quite curious… When one reached the end of the path of martial arts and reached unity between man and nature, would one have this kind of power? Cou
No matter how Harvey looked at Vaida, he could tell she was no ordinary warrior. Her decisiveness and style proved to him that she was highly experienced in battles. He could even see some signs of her being in the military.Harvey was even more curious about Vaida's identity when he thought of that.But he knew it was not the time to think about such things. Harvey picked up a gun from the ground amidst the chaos and started to aim and shoot in front of him.If Vaida's attacks were all about affecting a wide area, then Harvey's attacks were all about accuracy. While he looked casual, whenever he pulled the trigger, an enemy would flop in a crumpled mess after each shot. The long-haired man could only watch with a dark expression.Despite bringing along an army of assassins with heavy firepower, his forces were being decimated."Darn it…!" The long-haired man let out a roar. "Deploy the heavy weapons!"Before he could finish yelling, he shuddered. There was disbelief in his eyes.
After eliminating Ruins and Ashes, Harvey did not waste another second, slammed his foot into a table, and sent it flying with a smile. Contrary to everyone's expectation, he did not leave the fire escape. Instead, he jumped out of a window and immediately ruined the long-haired man's plans.However, it was obvious that there were guards outside the window as well. As soon as they saw Harvey appear, the armed men were only slightly stunned before they aimed their guns at Harvey and pulled their triggers.Harvey immediately side-stepped, grabbed the fire extinguisher the cafe prepared for an emergency, and started spraying it all around him. Half the street was instantly covered in white as the bullets missed their marks, but several tourists who did not manage to escape in time were hit. The tourists cried, and it simply made the assassins even more aggressive.In just a short while, all these people would lose their lives.Harvey's eyes turned cold when he realized how nonchalant
However, before the Islander woman could swing her sword down, she could feel a sharp pain on her throat as a red dot appeared. Then, she could even feel all her strength disappear. She collapsed to the ground in disbelief, unable to make a sound. It was obvious that this woman could not understand how she was killed even moments before she died.The waiters and tourists only realized what was happening when they saw this moment. They screamed as they quickly ran toward the exits, throwing the entire Lucky Café into chaos. Harvey ignored all the chaos, picked up the sword from the woman's hand, and continued walking with a calm expression. At this time, a long-robed man and woman walked toward him among the crowds. Both of them looked quite strange. The man was missing an ear, while the woman was missing an eye. However, their energy signatures were terrifying, and they seemed very powerful."It's the Golden Triangle's assassin duo, Ruins and Ashes!""I heard the two could even de
