"You? Beat me up? Ha!" Shingen's expression was full of disdain. He once again sprinted forward like a bolt of lightning. The air whistled as his right hand formed a claw and swiped at Harvey's chest.Harvey launched out his palm strike at the same time. Every time, he would counter Shingen's attack directly.Pfft!After about a dozen exchanges, Shingen suddenly changed his attacks and immediately tore Harvey's other sleeve. Harvey instinctively stepped to the side, as if he was scared of Shingen. "This is you being invincible? How laughable!" Shingen attacked relentlessly the moment he saw he was at an advantage. All his attacks were wide-area attacks, making sure that Harvey couldn't dodge or retreat. His hands were trained in a special technique, and after being genetically modified, they were as tough as steel. Bang! Bang! Bang!Harvey pushed back against all Shingen's attacks with his bare fists, without any intention of withdrawing. He would take all of Shingen's atta
"Die!" Shingen yelled.The longsword in his hand called upon an endless sweep of cold wind as the onlookers watched. The winds all smashed into Harvey from all directions.Harvey, who was in the eye of the storm, was like an unprotected flower in the middle of a tempest. He could fall at any time.All the Islanders were filled with glee. To them, it was obvious the attack was invincible. It was unblockable. In other words, Harvey's ending had already been decided.Only Aya was frowning.Clang!As the storms finally crashed, Harvey extended his right hand as if he found this boring, and clawed at the storms and snow. At that instant, everything froze.Aya and other martial arts elites saw it clearly. Harvey raised his hand and caught Shingen's blade with his middle and index finger. "Interesting! This is so interesting! Even among the True Warriors, you must be one of the best! Only you have the right to make me use my full power!" Shingen said. While he seemed full of astonish
Harvey and Shingen traded dozens or so blows as the people watched.Shingen started to get angry again when he realized that not only was he unable to stand on top of the battle, but he seemed to be suppressed by Harvey too.He clenched the hilt of the longsword and took a step back, his body floating in mid-air, then drew a circle. At this moment, murderous intent poured through from the sword; it was so dense it could reach the heaven above.Everyone could see that Shingen had been angered and was going to use his ultimate attack.Aya shook her head. "Harvey's doomed. This is Shinto Way's ultimate attack, the Nine Divine Slash. In our legends, even the gods that reside in the Island Nation had to take a step back when faced with the Nine Divine Slash, not to mention a mere man."All the elites from the Island Nation were shocked after hearing Aya's words. An elite from the Shinkage Way slapped his head. "That's right! The tomes in Shinkage Way have records of the Nine Divine S
Clang! Clang! Clang!Shingen laughed maddeningly after his two attacks worked; he kept on attacking again and again, each strike more powerful than the last. Just simple slashes were enough to make the winds blow within the venue, his strikes reaching heaven and earth.Facing such terrible attacks, Harvey had already given up on the small blade in his hand. He simply took one step back after another to avoid Shingen's attack.Shingen's every attack felt like he wanted to kill Harvey on the spot. But no matter how he attacked, no matter how powerful it was, he wasn't able to touch Harvey at all.Whoosh!It was another attack, but Shingen was faster. Harvey had already been forced to the edge of the stage. There was nowhere for him to run or dodge. Shingen's eyes were filled with murderous intent, as if he had already foreseen how he would cut Harvey in half.Clang!At this final moment, Harvey suddenly sighed, disinterested. He raised his right hand and blocked Shingen's attack.
Shingen's entire body froze at this moment in time. He could not understand why. He had already surrendered and was going to kneel. Why would Harvey be on guard? He had always used this scheme and ambushed plenty of elites.Why did it fail when used on Harvey?Shingen's throat was making some gurgling sound. He could not say anything, but he could not accept it."Do you know why I know you'll want to ambush?" Harvey wanted to crush Shingen's spirit. "That's because you have always been despicable. Whoever believes you… he's going to get it."Gah!After hearing Harvey's words, Shingen coughed one last mouthful of blood in regret, before falling to the ground. He would not make the same choices if he could relive his life. He could instigate anyone, but just not Harvey!Yvonne let out a sigh of relief after watching this scene.The worry in her heart had finally dissipated. All the Islanders still could not react to what had happened. They lost! How did Shingen, who had been on th
Clang!The next moment, a Shinto Way elite loosened his grip, and the sword he held fell to the ground. And then, he knelt on the ground as his body started to shake.He really wanted to defend the honor of the Islanders and his own honor. Of course, he also wanted to avenge Shingen. But… He wanted to live, too.When faced with the option of either death or kneeling, what other choices did he have other than to kneel?After the first one, there was a second one. In no time, all the Shinto Way elites threw their swords on the ground and knelt. When all the islanders saw what had happened, they all felt they were witnessing a funeral.They knelt.The Shinto Way, the leader of the Six Schools of Martial Arts, all knelt. The Island Nation's martial arts community knelt. The faces of those from the other schools or the Five Royal Families all became pale.They wanted to yell at the elites who were kneeling. How could they not give up on their lives instead? But once the words reached
Whoosh!Aya gave it her all, but Harvey simply swung his sword. But Harvey's seemingly underwhelming attack defended against Aya's explosive offensive. Aya did not choose to retreat after her attack failed. Her princess pride did not allow her to retreat simply.She took a deep breath and gave her 120%. Her power and speed were much faster when she attacked again. However, the moment the attack was going to fall, Aya shuddered. Because she noticed that Harvey's eyes had always been so cold from the very beginning…It was as if he had seen through life and death…It was as if he had seen through her life and death…Unspeakable despair grew in Aya's heart, and she felt that her sight began to be covered in darkness. A cold aura seemed to cover her from all directions, making it hard for her to breathe.Clang!At this moment, Harvey's swing clashed with Aya's full-powered strike. However, Aya could simply feel her hand shaking and her right hand numbed. And then, the blade of her s
Third ring of Wolsing, ten in the evening.Compared to the dilapidated Island Nation embassy in the outer ring, the Xavier residence in the third ring of Wolsing looked mysterious and solemn. Not long after leaving the embassy, he did not waste his breath and immediately told Jesse to lead the way and bring him and Yvonne back to the Xavier of Wolsing.He had to explain certain things even if it was to the top ten families of Country H. Otherwise, this would not be a complete scheme. Jesse said nothing and simply led the way in silence.The three swiftly walked through winding paths past corridors, lakes, and artificial hills. In the end, they arrived at an old building in the middle of the residence.While this place looked empty and deserted, the reality was that this place was filled with lethal dangers. Those who came here without informing the people here ahead would not even know how they died.The candle in the old candle holder was burning within the building. While it was
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
While Hyperborea was a small city, as it was located on the nape of Snowdrake Mountain, it was also one of the most famous tourist cities in the country. Around 30 million travelers came to Hyperborea throughout the year, enriching their economies. However, it was somewhat difficult to manage the city.More than 90 percent of the population here came from other cities. So, it was going to be difficult to find anything about anyone.Besides being a tourist city, Hyperborea was also a location where people from all walks of life congregate.Harvey glanced around as he sat in the corner. He noticed that other than travelers, most of the people here were foreigners who spoke with foreign accents. Many of them carried firearms in secret, and some were obviously trained in martial arts. This place was destined to be different from other cities.While it was a tourist city on the surface, this place hid an entire underworld.'No wonder Grand City set its entrance in a place like this. It
After what Vaida had said, Harvey had no choice but to unlock the door. However, when Vaida glanced at the rear-view mirror, she said, "You get down!"Harvey had no choice but to shrug when being aimed with the repeating crossbow and got out of the driver's seat. Vaida quickly drove on the mechanic's truck and left like the wind. Shortly, several Toyota Prados appeared once more and headed straight toward the truck.Harvey looked at the scene and narrowed his eyes, seeming to be in deep thought. Then, he pulled out his mobile and dialed Geoffrey's personal number.When Geoffrey answered the call, he curiously asked, "What is it, friend?"Harvey replied with a smile. "Hello, Geoffrey. I'm supposed to be the mayor of Grand City, but the second I've arrived in Hyperborea, assassins are already here to kill me. And the person who wants to kill you and me is the same person.""You're in Hyperborea?" Geoffrey's voice became tense. "Who's the one who wants to kill you?""Ellena," stated
But just because Harvey was knowledgeable, it did not help. Several other plateless Toyota Prados drove in. All the windows from the passenger's side had been rolled down, showing individuals wearing military uniforms with heavy weapons in their hands.Harvey cursed as he immediately scouted around, thinking what he could use at a time like this.Vaida gave Harvey a look and showed off the repeating crossbow in her hand, then she quickly aimed and pulled the trigger.Whoosh!Silver bolts of light were fired at the cars, immediately piercing the Toyota Prados drivers. Then, there was an explosion. The Prados instantly turned into balls of fire as the vehicles were blown up.Harvey clicked his tongue. "These must be the legendary Thunderblasts. These are nice… They are more powerful than your usual weapons."Vaida coldly exclaimed, "Stop wasting your breath and start driving!"Harvey smiled and immediately hopped into the mechanic's truck and rammed through the chain fence surroun
Just when Harvey did not know how to respond, Vaida suddenly walked into the cockpit from behind. First, she glared at Harvey, then responded with Ellena's solemn voice. "It's done."When the person heard this voice, it was obvious that the man heaved a sigh of relief. "Land the plane on the last runway near the edge, then retreat immediately. Remember, don't leave any unfinished business behind. Our conversation is over." Then, the tone became engaged before it was completely cut off.Meanwhile, Harvey quickly took control of the plane's yoke and landed the plane successfully on the runway. The plane landed successfully. However, with one look outside, he suddenly frowned and said, "Something's not right. Go!"Then, Harvey dragged Vaida along with him and ran to the plane's emergency door. He opened the door and immediately jumped out.At this time, all the passengers in the first-class cabin finally got hold of themselves and started screaming and yelling. Instantaneously, the en
All the other passengers could only watch the sudden turn of events with mouths agape. It was as if they could not believe just how terrifying Vaida was. Even Harvey narrowed his eyes. He already knew that Vaida was a powerful martial artist and one that was close to losing control. But only now did he realize that the woman was trained in the legendary Basilisk Palm.It was a unique martial art from the tribes. While it was not exceptionally powerful, it was extremely venomous. Just one strike could make an elite like Ellena from Servitas lose power and control of her body, explaining just how terrifying this technique was.Before Harvey could say anything, Vaida had already picked up the revolver on the ground and immediately fired at her arms and legs. Then, she dislocated Ellena's jaw, making sure that Ellena could not kill herself no matter what.Vaida's directness made Ellena's eyes filled with rage. She could not believe that she still lost despite being in a situation wher
