"That's enough, Veronica!" Marlee's face hardened. "No matter how good Master Eridan is, that's not a reason to treat Master Harvey like this. Not only did he heal Grandma in the first place, but we also have to respect him because he's willing to come to our family this time. We…""Enough!" Reginald was getting slightly annoyed, so he immediately made the decision. "It looks like I have no say in this despite being your grandfather, Marlee? Since you have so much to talk about, you can leave too. Otherwise, you'll take full responsibility if your grandmother's rest is interrupted!"Someone like Reginald knew how to humiliate someone without even pointing his finger at them. While he was scolding Marlee, he was actually humiliating Harvey. Since someone of his age hated the youths, who were so energetic and thought highly of their capabilities.Perhaps he did have some talent, but how could his talents compare to a true expert? It was as if he was the only one who could deal with th
Once Harvey was back in his estate, he did not dwell on what happened at the Judd family residence today. Instead, he reflected on what had happened in the past few days.Firstly, Vaughn was ready to take over the Thompsons of Wolsing with the support of Tyson and the others. Everything needed to be done before the end of Hector's mourning period, or at the very least on the day itself.Secondly, nothing could have been done with the Country H Commercial Group. Elric would not easily give up the post of the next chairman. Not only was this for his own benefit, but the fact that Emery wanted it was enough to make Elric do everything in his power to.Thirdly, it was about the Country H Martial Arts Alliance. He had already crippled one of the so-called Four Kings of the Alliance and took him as his own. No one would trouble him for the time being. The only thing he needed to do was to wait for the full moon's night, and he could finish everything in one swoop by crippling those from t
When Harvey, Vaughn, Tyson, and the others sat to have some coffee and prepared to order some food deliveries for a quick meal, a loud engine roar could be heard from outside the estate.Then, the door into the estate was kicked open and dozens of men in black walked in. All of them had vicious looks. It was obvious that they were not there to make friends.They all marched over when they saw Harvey and the others having coffee in the courtyard. Next, a slender man walked over with a machete and scanned the surroundings. He coldly asked, "Which one of you is Harvey York?"Show yourself so we can kill you. Don't make us hurt the innocents. I'll give you one minute. If you don't show up, don't blame me if I kill everyone here!"Then, the man holding a machete signaled and waved his hand. All the men in black behind him even pointed bolts hidden under their sleeves at Harvey and the others. Some even whipped out their firearms and showed their licenses, trying to demonstrate just how
Harvey blinked, stupefied. "They managed to expand the business of geology into something like that? I wonder what the founders of the School of Astronomers would think if they found out about this. Will they crawl out from their graves? Don't any of the top families know about this? Why do all of you still treat them as master geomancers?"Vaughn curled his lips. "Of course we know. But the School of Astronomers still held a lot of influence. No one was willing to reveal them for who they really are. Not to mention that they possess some great skills, and Eridan wasn't really someone without skills. That was how he managed to get the reputation of being the top geomancer in Wolsing…"Harvey nodded and glared at the leading man. "Looks like Eridan is very upset with me today for him to seek me out like this."However, almost six hours had passed, and the hour that Harvey spoke of was quickly arriving. To think that Eridan did not put his whole effort into preparing for it and instea
Vaughn blinked when he heard what Rachel had just said.Oh, damn!Even the women who served Harvey could be so full of pride? Just one move?Vaughn wanted to see how one move would be enough to take so many people down, especially when all of them were armed with dangerous weapons. Even if they were all to kneel and wait for Rachel to give them a slap, one move would not be enough, right?Harvey did not answer Vaughn as he looked at his confused look. Instead, Harvey simply signaled to him to watch. They simply looked at Rachel strolling toward the so-called fighters from the School of Astronomers. In the next instant, she closed her eyes. Her right hand pressed against the hilt of the blade on her waist. She instantly pulled the blade out in a flash, revealing a glint of silver light.And in a moment, all that could be heard within the courtyard was screams of pain as Vaughn looked in shock. All the fighters from the School of Astronomers had blood trails on their wrists or nec
The night was especially dark tonight.Harvey knitted his eyebrows when he arrived at the Judd family residence.The entire residence was covered in darkness, seemingly dilapidated. As the wind howled, he almost thought this was a haunted location and all manners of ghosts and spirits would show themselves."Master Harvey! You're finally here!" When Harvey was at the entrance, Marlee crawled out of the residence, her hair disheveled. She did not care about manners at all and simply dragged Harvey to the back of the residence immediately without any care.Harvey saw many members of the Judd family inside, but their faces were all panic-stricken and pale. All of them were shaking; some had even collapsed on the ground, convulsing. Some even had white foam coming out from their mouths.What was happening in the residence seemed apocalyptic."Harvey… No… Master Harvey… After you left, Eridan set up and began his ritual. Everything went well initially, but as soon as the six hours you
Reginald was already lying on the ground. But even when he was shaking, he yelled sternly, "Be gentler! My wife isn't getting any younger. What will I do if something happens to her?!"It was obvious that Reginald and his wife had a great relationship. Otherwise, he would not be so nervous.Meanwhile, Veer felt constrained as he was commanding the security guards. On one hand, he had to ensure the ropes were strong enough to keep his mother under control. On the other hand, he had to ensure the only security guards left would not touch her and collapse.If that happened, the Judd family would be history.When Marlee saw the chaos, she rushed in and quickly yelled, "Dad! I've brought Master Harvey here!""Master Harvey!" Veer hollered, as if he had seen his savior. "I've made the wrong decision earlier, but please forgive me and don't use it against me. Please, do something and help my family!"Even Reginald asked Harvey for help with a gentler tone. "Please, Master Harvey. I've m
Harvey put his hands behind his back as he signaled Marlee to lead the way, ignoring the pale faces of those who heard what Reginald had just said.In no time, Harvey met Marlee's grandmother, who seemed to have fallen into a frenzy. Compared to last time, her condition was even worse. She was wearing pajamas, but her eyes were completely white as black blood trickled down from her ears, nose, mouth, and even eyes.While the security guards were using the ropes to pin her down, she seemed to have gained great strength. Even a single move was enough to make the security guards struggle. Meanwhile, the security guards were also worried about getting touched by her, which made them limit their actions.Just when Harvey was about to make his move, Marlee's grandmother suddenly roared furiously and dragged one of the security guards beside her. The security guard could only watch in fear as she swiped her hand at him.The security guard screamed as he collapsed on the ground, debilitate
