Chapter 5686
Everyone instinctively looked at Stefan. They wanted to see what the well-known consul would do in this situation.Stefan raised his head to look at Harvey without much of an expression. However, he couldn’t help but apply a little more force when grabbing Miley’s leg.After taking a deep breath, he spoke up again.“Two hundred and thirty million!”Many froze after hearing the number. Was Stefan planning to go crazy like Harvey? Judging from his discreet behavior, he wasn’t one to use that much money. Maybe he was enraged by what he was seeing. Maybe he lost his cool because of it.Miley’s eyes twitched; she wanted to stop Stefan, but she remained silent.The auctioneer showed an odd expression, but then quickly knocked his gavel.“Mr. Stefan with two hundred and thirty million! Will anyone go past that? If not, then…”“Three hundred million,” Harvey said with a calm expression.Everyone present were all from the outskirts’ elite social circle, but their hearts skipped a be

Bam!Stefan couldn’t stop himself from standing. He broke the table in front of him with a single kick, then slowly stepped forward.“I don’t know where you came from, kid…” he said while squinting at Harvey. “But do you even have that kind of money?”Harvey waved his Black Card around with a smile.“I can afford way more than that. Why, are you angry about it?”Harvey loathed Stefan the moment he talked about getting closer to Aria.“Of course not. I won’t compete against you, either.”Stefan glared coldly at Harvey. His usually gentle expression was completely gone.“I’d like to see how you’re planning to take the bead out of here, though…“You’ll arouse jealousy walking around with that, won’t you? You of all people should know about that, right?“I believe the bead will only give you bad luck. You might just get buried six feet under without knowing why! There’s a lot of soil in the outskirts, after all!”Stefan’s words were filled with nothing but threats.The auctione

The crowd was praising Harvey’s generous behavior. However, they soon looked at him with playful disdain. So what if Harvey was rich?In the end, he’d just turn into someone else’s storage. An outsider like him wouldn’t be able to go against Stefan’s army in the outskirts.‘He’s probably not getting out of here later…’Stefan went back to his seat, casually sitting down once more.Miley stretched her legs out for him to play with. Then, she brought out her phone to make a few calls. It was clear that she was calling for support.The air grew tense. Those who were cheering for Harvey started feeling disappointed.‘Men should have money, but also self-awareness!’‘What is he trying to do for going against someone he can’t?’‘He’s just trying to die at this point!’‘Who knows if he just likes to play with money and his life?’‘I guess I’ll visit his grave next year, to honor his courage…’Aria hesitated for a moment, but ultimately decided to keep her mouth shut. She knew H

The Nine-Eyed Beads had significant meaning that had already surpassed their value. If the One-Eyed Bead was snapped in half, history would be broken.The sacred treasure would be lost forever.Harvey was simply insane for suggesting something like that!Stefan appeared nonchalant at first, but…“What did you say?!” he exclaimed, springing out of his seat.“I said, I’m snapping it in half to protect myself.” Harvey smiled casually. “1.3 billion dollars to protect me from a disaster that would cost me ten times that amount… That seems worth it, no?”Harvey twirled the One-Eyed Bead around.Many stood up and started to pant. Even without Harvey doing anything, everything would be finished if the bead dropped to the ground!‘He’s insane! He’s definitely insane!‘Stefan has no morals, but Harvey’s on a different level!‘By doing this, he’s about to go against everyone!’Miley couldn’t help but stand, her face cold.“Is this man insane, Aria?! He wants to snap the bead in half?

Stefan felt his heart clog after hearing Harvey’s words.‘This bastard’s crossing the line! He’s going this far just because he has reason on his side?!‘He’s using the sects’ reputation, and he’s even threatening me! And he wants me to protect him as well?!’Stefan didn’t know where Harvey got his courage from. His breathing grew rapid; he didn’t know what to do after seeing all this. “How dare you threaten him, you bastard?!”Before Stefan could make a decision, Miley came from the back and shot Harvey a deathly glare.She couldn’t stand Harvey’s prideful expression. She was already humiliated back in the Surrey family’s residence…She didn’t think he’d dare humiliate Stefan too!He was clearly looking to die!This was simply unforgivable!Harvey looked like he was on the same side as Aria. If that was the case, Aria could probably trample all over Stefan as well.Realizing that, Miley wanted to rip Harvey to shreds.“I’m not threatening Stefan, Ms. Miley. I just want to

A monk behind Stefan was showing murderous intent in his eyes.Stefan’s breathing almost stopped at the same time.Harvey’s actions were no different from killing him.For the sake of all the sects, nothing could happen to the legendary Nine-Eyed Beads. If not, even the Aenar Temple wouldn’t be able to give him an explanation, let alone Stefan.Not just Evermore, even the sects here knew that everlasting life could be achieved with the nine beads combined.The One-Eyed Bead had been hidden for a long time. Now that it did appear, there was a possibility to witness the legend.And yet, the One-Eyed Bead was about to be destroyed because of Harvey’s recklessness!If that actually happened, the Aenar Temple wouldn’t hesitate to take out Stefan.“The legends will end here, everyone…”Harvey smiled.“Nobody will be able to witness all Nine-Eyed Beads in the same place anymore. People sure like tragedies!”Harvey applied more force to his thumbs.Everyone gasped. Aria couldn’t ev

Miley froze after hearing Harvey’s words.“Who do you think you are? You want him to kneel?“Even if you’re six feet under, Mr. Stefan will never kneel! Who do you think he is?“Only God can make him do such a thing! At least look in the mirror first before saying something like that!”Harvey chuckled.“Well now, you’re going to have to grovel.”Miley’s eyes were ice-cold. “You’ll suffer a horrible death speaking to him like that! Let me tell you something! You…”Slap!Before Miley finished talking, Stefan had already slapped her to the ground.“Shut up! Shut up right now!”“Mr. Stefan! Why?!” Miley covered her face, filled with disbelief. She didn’t think she’d end up like this after speaking up for Stefan.Slap!Stefan swung the back of his palm forward again, sending Miley flying. He couldn’t care less about holding back at this point.After kicking Miley in the face a few times, he coldly spoke up.“If you keep yapping, I’ll kill you myself!”Because of her, he had

After a moment, Harvey kept the One-Eyed Bea.“I can feel his sincerity now.“Since the bead’s mine, I’ll naturally take good care of it.“However, I heard there’ll be a ceremony for the Aenar Temple not long after this. Maybe I’ll give it out when that happens.“Hopefully you’ll treat me to some tea by then, Mr. Stefan.”Harvey then turned around and left.Everyone was dead silent.‘Where did he come from? He’s terrifying!‘He managed to get someone like Stefan to suffer this badly!’Stefan slowly stood up before glaring at Harvey. Nobody knew exactly what he was feeling. However, his hand was clearly shivering in anger.He would’ve thrown hands if he didn’t hold himself back.It was only natural for him to be this angry, though.He came to acquire the One-Eyed Bead for the Aenar Temple. Not only would it become a great story, he’d be able to rise in the ranks in the Aenar Temple. His position would be completely solidified.Harvey’s appearance not only screwed with his p
