After a moment, sounds of high heels clacking could be heard from the corridor.They came at a steady pace. However, the rhythm gave off an unspeakable sense of evil. Those with less courage would’ve fallen to the ground and on their knees by now.Miley’s face instantly went deathly pale as soon as she heard the footsteps. Romina’s expression changed as well; she could tell that the person making that sound was clearly extraordinary.Harvey, on the other hand, was casually making some more tea.Soon after, the door was pushed open soon after.Xyla and Emil showed up at the same time. They were both swirling their glass, sipping their wine calmly in the process. The smell of alcohol wafted in the air.Behind them, the disciples of the Smalt Sect and a group of American experts watched on with cold expressions.The air tensed up in an instant. It was the kind of thing that could stop children from crying at night.The people glanced around, then spotted the badge on the ground wi
“Me? Die?”Xyla froze, then narrowed her eyes. Her lips curved into a beautiful smirk.“Interesting. Truly interesting.“I haven’t started threatening you, but you’re already doing just that? It’s my first time seeing an arrogant man like you after being in the world for this long. Heh, heh, heh!“Have you thought about it yet? Do you really think you can handle the consequences for doing such a thing?“I forgot to tell you. I’ve already called a few people just now. The disciples of the Smalt Sect from the urban district are mostly here! There must be hundreds of them, I think.“How do you suppose I’d die at this point? Are you going to kill me with that sharp tongue of yours?”Xyla sized up Harvey with a profound gaze. She was convinced that people who dared to go against her this way would undoubtedly die.The disciples behind her smirked coldly too. ‘The Smalt Sect has been pretending to be innocent and sweet for so many years, but someone actually thinks we’re completely
“What? You’re not planning to refuse, are you?”Xyla squinted at Miley, the smile on her face becoming colder and colder.“You should know what’ll happen to the Surrey family if you do refuse.”Xyla was sure Miley would know her place as soon as she pointed that out.Harvey chuckled, and poured himself another cup of tea.“I’m sorry. Not just the Surrey family…“The Wolven Tribe and the four great tribes are working under me right now. You want to lay your hands on the Surrey family? I’m afraid you’ll have to go through me first.”“They’re working under you?”Xyla showed a look of understanding.“You’re Harvey York. The man who won the competition in the oasis… The expert from America, Salem, lost against you too. Am I right?”Xyla didn’t mention anything about Stinger at all; she only said all that just for Emil to hear. As expected, Emil’s expression changed slightly when he was initially ready to watch the show. He sized up Harvey with a horrible expression before finall
Xyla chuckled after hearing Emil’s words.“Give up, Harvey. You can’t protect Miley. She has nothing to do with you, no matter how we look at it.“This is the sect’s business! If you’re still going to get involved, then don’t blame us if you actually die for it!”Harvey sighed. “So after the Smalt Sect starts working together with Evermore… You people think you’re very impressive, huh?“Well, I have a question… Emil’s clearly from America. His father’s not actually Roue of the Twelve Earthly Branches, right?”“You know Roue?” Emil frowned, then looked at Harvey fiercely. “Looks like you’re no ordinary man either, kid…but it’s a shame, you forgot something.”Harvey smiled. “And what’s that?”“People who know too much die quicker.”Emil licked his lips.“I only wanted to cripple you at first. Since you know I’m from Evermore and who Roue actually is… I have no choice but to kill you now!”The Americans behind Emil slowly stepped forward.Harvey was confused. “You actually
Everyone instinctively looked at Emil.‘He can’t get it up with a single blue pill? He’s not taking drugs anymore! He’s playing with his life!’Xyla showed an odd gaze; she tried to control herself, but she couldn’t help but smirk.‘If that’s the case, then he should just cut it off at this point!’Emil glared at Harvey, confused, ignoring everyone else’s gaze. Harvey’s deductions were spot on.He took a deep breath before finally speaking up. “How did you know?”Harvey was just an ant he could crush easily…but now, his value was priceless.Harvey said he had no medical skill…but seeing through Emil’s sickness was enough to prove his strength.“I can see it with my own eyes. This only happened because you went berserk; you wanted to increase your strength by skipping steps.“The martial art you trained in must be suitable for people with a colder temperature. That’s why you’ve been suffering a cold for a long time. “I don’t know what genius told you to deal with the problem
“Enough!” Emil said to Xyla, and her expression changed. He then stepped in front of Harvey.“I was ignorant, Sir York. Please forgive me!“As long as you’re willing to help me… You can ask for anything you want! I guarantee nobody will come for you for what happened today!”Emil was filled with hope as he subtly threatened Harvey.Harvey smiled, and sipped his tea.“You wanted me dead and buried in the desert… And now, you want me to save you? Are you joking with me, Emil? What’s with the attitude? Is this how you ask for help?”Emil’s expression changed, and he gritted his teeth. “What would you like me to do, then?”Harvey pointed at Xyla. “I don’t like her. Kill her. A life for a life.”“How dare you?!” Xyla screamed. She gritted her teeth.“You want me dead? Do you think Young Master Emil would believe you just because you said so? This is a greedy bastard, Young Master Emil! You know this!“He can’t save you! That’s why he wants you to go against me! He wants to see c
Xyla instinctively looked at Harvey. “What did you do?!”Everyone gasped; they all knew that Harvey didn’t even get close to Emil, let alone touch him… Despite that, Emil still fell to the ground.‘This is insane! If Harvey managed to kill someone like this, then who can go against him?!‘Only legends of the Island Nations and the South Sea have assassination tactics similar to this!‘People of Country H are fair and honest! Talks of people being killed this way have never been mentioned!’“I didn’t do anything.” Harvey shrugged. “The cold in his body just invaded his heart. Medicine won’t help him.”“You…”Just then, Xyla thought of something.When Harvey told Emil to press his rib, there must have been some trick involved. Harvey must’ve fooled Emil into crippling himself.Why would Harvey choose to save Emil when the two were standing on opposite sides?And despite that, Emil chose to trust Harvey.What a joke!Xyla desperately wanted to slap Harvey to death.But if Har
Xyla and the others froze, and finally understood.Talking to Harvey was just a waste of time.It’d be way easier to cripple him instead. His life would be in their hands. He’d have no choice but to obey!“Fuck!”The man chuckled coldly; he naturally knew who Welt was.He stood up; as soon as he did that, his muscles started to bulge and his white coat instantly exploded. His well-defined muscles instantly turned green. His eyes were bloodshot eyes, and he looked as if he had lost his rationale.He charged right toward Harvey, and the simple move was enough to shake the entire earth.This was a Giant—a type of Mutant from America.Harvey watched him curiously; changing one’s muscles through genetic science resembled divine power. Genetic science was a little stronger than what Harvey initially thought.Even so, he had no intention of taking action; all he did was show a little interest.Romina’s expression changed, and she waved her hand; she and a dozen sacrificial soldiers
