Everyone’s sights all fell on Harvey York. Once again, he had become the center of attention.Harvey York pointed at the mudball that was thrown to the ground by the host with a righteous face.The crowd glared at him with disdain after seeing his actions.‘This live-in son-in-law is shameless!’‘How dare he still speak at this point!’‘He clearly gave some sort of trash. How dare he say that his gift was the original pallet after he heard Keith Yates talk about it?!’‘That thing is South Light’s first-rated family, the Naiswell Patriarch, Shane Naiswell’s precious little baby!’‘It was said that the first-in-command of the military force in South Light asked for one before, but to no avail.’‘He’d give this to a live-in son-in-law like Harvey York? Why would he?’‘Is it because he's filth?!’“Harvey! What are you doing?! Stop playing around!”Mandy was on the verge of tears.‘Can’t he see what’s happening right now? Why is he still causing a ruckus?’‘Does he still think
The crowd who saw everything wanted to come up and slap Harvey York to death.‘What’s going on here?’‘Why is this man so disgusting? He’s doing it intentionally!’Simon and Lilian, who had seen the whole thing, wanted nothing more than to hide under a table.Embarrassing!Too embarrassing!Things were already fine before, things had already passed.But then this bastard actually claimed that the trash in his hand was actually the Authentic Lung Tonic!Wasn’t he afraid of being exposed?Right now, Simon wanted to strangle Harvey dead.Zack rose from his place and exclaimed,“Grandma Yates, I’ll represent the Zimmers to make a stance!”“This man, Harvey York, is the live-in son-in-law from my family!”“However, all of his actions have nothing to do with us whatsoever!”Listening to Zack, the rest of the guests confirmed that the disgusting-looking pallet was not the Authentic Lung Tonic.Babbles burst out in unison from the entire crowd.“Patriarch Yates, why are you still
Finn Yates couldn’t help but ask, “Grandma, is this the so-called Authentic Lung Tonic?“This is impossible!“That thing is practically equivalent to Master Naiswell’s life, he would never offer it just to anyone. What’s more, he’s just a mere live-in son-in-law!”The others also voiced out in agreement.“Grandma Yates, you must look at it carefully! There are a lot of con men these days. If one is not careful enough he or she will certainly fall for it!”“Yeah! This is medicine and not something to joke about. If it’s a fake one, not only you won’t get any benefits out of it, you might even get poisoned!”“Grandma Yates, this guy doesn’t look like someone who could own the Authentic Lung Tonic!”Keith Yates knitted his eyebrows together and said, “Mom, the Authentic Lung Tonic owned by Shane Naiswell it’s not something even the army’s first-in-command could get, so what about other people?“Please do think straight about this!”Keith was anxious about this matter, if his old
Mandy Zimmer was trembling hopelessly as well.She could accept the fact that her own husband was boastful and unaccomplished.But she would never accept that her husband was a thief!At that moment, even Keith Yates’ face darkened as he spoke, “Harvey York, now both the second-in-command of the South Light General Police Station and the first-in-command of the Buckwood Police Station are here!“At a time like this, you better clarify the matter!“It still won’t be too late to repeal for your mistake!”This wasn’t because of how understanding Keith was toward Harvey, it was only because if a matter such as something is stolen appeared in Grandma Yates’ birthday ceremony, the Yates family’s reputation would go down the drain!So now the best thing to do was to make Harvey return the thing while hoping Shane Naiswell to accept his apology.Only by then, the negative repercussions arising from this incident would be diminished as far as possible.Out of everyone’s expectation, Ha
Harvey York spoke seriously, “If Shane Naiswell has more of this, for sure he would give them to me if I ask for it…”He wasn’t just putting on airs. With his current status, Shane would definitely show some respect if he requested it.“Alright, alright, Harvey, I understand how filial you are already!”Grandma Yates thought Harvey still wanted to boast more as she cut him off, “No matter what, I’m grateful for your intention!”Then, Grandma Yates even gestured towards Simon Zimmer, Lilian Yates, and Mandy Zimmer and said, “What are you guys still standing there for? Come and sit before me now!”What good news!Simon and the other two were still in a daze as they walked up to sit at the table where Grandma Yates was at.Grandma Yates smiled and said, “Now that everyone’s here, I’ll announce something now!“From today onwards, my eldest daughter, Lilian, and her family are officially back as a part of the family!“With the name of Yates family, I hope that everyone would show t
Grandma Yates grinned widely and said, “Keith, you’re incredible, you even managed to invite both Sheldon Xavier from the South Lights and Mr. Kyle Quinlan!“What an honor for an old lady like me!”The other Yateses all turned their eyes onto Keith Yates excitedly and exclaimed, “Chief Yates, you’re amazing! Someone, as distinguished as them, is actually coming over to celebrate Grandma’s birthday!”“How did you do that?!”“It seems that it wouldn’t be long before the Yates family gets to become another top-class family already!”At that moment, all of the Yates family felt proud of themselves.This was such an honorable thing!The guests all had looks of envy and admiration on their faces as well.Not long ago, it was said that only Kyle Quinlan, the South Light’s second-in-command was there at Grandma York’s birthday banquet, who left in a rush after attending.And now at Grandma Yates’ birthday ceremony, the first and second-in-command would both be here. This indicated tha
“So now what should we do?” Kyle Quinlan felt a bit awkward, they’re here to sort out some matter and didn’t even think of bringing any presents.Now even Grandma Yates was out welcoming them, it would be weird if they stayed in the car right?The two glanced at each other for a moment and smiled helplessly before stepping out of the car.Sheldon Xavier then congratulated ahead and said, “Grandma Yates, I’ve come uninvited so I wish you good fortune and bliss!”Kyle added, “I wish Grandma for eternal health!”Grandma Yates was so excited that she exclaimed “Great!” so many times.The Yates family were descendants of state officials so they understood the two men’s statutes very well. Which wasn’t something the Yates family could compare themselves to as the gap was simply too big.They’re making the family feel so honored by sending their wishes.Even if they’re not intending to give any birthday presents at all, Grandma Yates didn’t even mind.Their presence was the most hono
In the rear of the Audi A6, there were two highly respected figures sitting in it at that moment.Both of them unconsciously wanted to stand up seeing Harvey York pulling open the car door, but they were stopped by him.“Just simply find a place.”Harvey waved his hand.Although he said it casually, Sheldon Xavier still let the driver drive the car into the South Light government office. They then went to a side room suitable for private meetings.The place was not luxurious, but rather old. However, the tea served by the staff was top-notch.Harvey took a sip casually and said, “Elder Xavier, why did you need to find me urgently?”As for Kyle Quinlan, Harvey just nodded to him casually. It was considered a greeting.Kyle smiled and said, “Prince York, I heard that Melissa Leo and others have left South Light, and now all the assets of the Yorks have been transferred to Sky Corporation.“So, Yonathan York is now the person in charge of the Yorks?”Harvey replied indifferently
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
