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
Harvey's eyes were calm, as if he was saying something ordinary. However, his words seemed to exert a faint pressure, and Frederick could not help but shudder when he noticed it.There were mixed emotions on Frederick's face, but after some time, he gritted his teeth and knelt on the ground."I, Frederick Robbin, acknowledge and greet you, Mr. Harvey. From today onward, I will obey your every command. I am your dog and will bare my fangs at whoever you want!" It was evident that Frederick had considered things through.Now that he had lost an arm, forget about remaining one of the four kings. It would be great if he had even half of his power before he lost his arm. Even if Harvey did not do him in, plenty of those within the Alliance would use him to climb the ladder. In other words, unless he wanted to die, the only other alternative was to survive and become Harvey's lapdog.Frederick clearly knew from the power Harvey had shown that the two of the other four kings could not do
"I will get it done in three days," said Frederick, instantly putting his brain to work."I will spread the news that my arm has been severed. That way, the other two will truly believe that I have been crippled. Then, I will gather those two with the excuse that I have discovered your weakness. All I need to do then is to draw them into my trap; that way we can deal with them permanently. Unlike you, I don't believe they can ignore hundreds of Rainstorm Needles pointed at them."Harvey blinked. "You have plenty of them?"Then, Frederick said in an embarrassed tone, "To be honest with you, my relationship with the Judd family from Kaneridge City is quite good, so I have stocked up a lot of Rainstorm Needles. Let me know if you need them, and I'll do my best to meet your needs."Harvey shook his head. "It's fine. Save them for your own use. Head to the hospital now. I hope you can give me some good news the next time we meet."Harvey turned around and left. He did not threaten Fred
"That's right," Harvey nodded.The woman briefly gave Harvey a good look, and a meaningful glint appeared in her eyes. After that, she gestured to a direction with her left hand and said, "This way, please."The two of them quickly arrived at an office renovated from a residential manor.The office was not that big, measuring about 1075 square feet. However, not only was it filled with vibes from the classical era, but some antiques were also used as decorations. While it looked simplistic, it made the entire office luxurious and opulent.Pottery from the 10th century, a horse statue from the 13th century, fabric from the 16th century… Plenty of antiques were being placed here, just the starters.One was a perfectly preserved vase from the 10th century, and it alone was worth a fortune.Harvey glanced at them before following the woman to an upholstered sofa made from the finest pear wood. An old man wearing a traditional garb was taking a sip from his teacup as he sat on the sof
