It was obvious that Lanny had no choice but to say that. Since if she did not do that, not only would she ruin the Bennett family's reputation, but the entire Grand City's reputation would also be tarnished.""Oh, right. You're called Lanny? And you're threatening me with your predecessor? Are you from White Peak by any chance?" Samuel asked curiously.Lanny gritted her teeth and replied, "That's right. I'm from White Peak, one of the Seven Families of Grand City."Samuel smirked and said, "I have dueled Ares Bennett three times, and he lost to me three times. If I wanted to, I could have slain him immediately the last time if I wanted to. That's why Ares has to call me Mr. Samuel whenever he sees me on the street and listens to me. You're just a greenhorn from White Peak… And you're pretending to be something special before me?"Samuel did not bother showing Lanny any respect. "Not to mention, everyone here has a good head on their shoulders. What really happened and what the trut
"Enough. There's no point staying here. This place is cold and lifeless. Let's return to Wolsing. We can have something hot together. I also have something I want to talk with you about," Samuel said as he patted Harvey's shoulder. Then, Samuel wanted to take Harvey with him."Nah," Harvey suddenly said. "I need to send Mandy back home first. Maybe over a cup of tea with milk to warm her body and stop her from shaking. We can go out another time."Everyone was stunned after they heard what Harvey had just said. How could Harvey reject an invitation from someone important like Samuel? Just… Who was he?But before they could even recover, Neve suddenly grabbed a hand crossbow from one of her followers and pointed it toward Harvey. It was clear that she was still upset. The madness on her face was tinged by vengefulness and pain as she shouted, "I know you're more important than any of us, Mr. Samuel! I know someone like you can ignore all the laws in this world! But where's justice in
Samuel's expression darkened. But just before his face was going to turn red in rage, Harvey stopped and waved his hand, signaling to Samuel there was no need to respond. Then, he calmly said, "Never. Are you saying that if I want to prove my innocence, I should go through the procedure and follow the rules and laws?"Neve smiled coldly. "That's right. Are you bold enough to do it? If you're not, then we…""Of course I do. Why not?" Harvey immediately cut Neve off. "However, not everything has to go through your laws and regulations. If we're going to do this, then we'll make it completely open and fair. Other than Grand City, all the Four Pillars will be there too. Dragon Gate, Dragon Palace, Dragon Cell, Dragon Guards… I want to be judged by all five sides."Do you dare accept this? If the verdict is that I'm guilty, then I'll kill myself on the spot without any hesitation. But if I'm innocent, then I will use my power as Country H's Martial Arts Alliance's representative to take
Janus quickly hopped off the Jeep Wrangler, his face full of excitement. "Boss, news from the front! The Dragon Gate's leader went to save Harvey, but because Lanny and her clique forced Harvey and the others, Harvey personally said he would accept a joint trial from five factions. Other than Grand City, all Four Pillars would be there. Whether he was guilty or not would depend on this trial!"When Emery heard that, he calmly asked, "Then, why are you so excited?"Janus walked over with his hand next to him. "Boss, he had been going against us for so long. Isn't it great if he's dead? Not only Grand City, but other than Dragon Gate, who sided with him, do you think the other three pillars would stand by him? The moment that he asked for a joint trial, his fate had already been sealed.""Oh, you…" Emery sighed as he could not help but squint his eyes. "Then, what's the reason for your presence here?""To give the Dragon Guards the orders!" Janus swiftly replied. "Everyone knows you'
The Xaviers. Wolsing.Nashon was playing chess by himself. Sitting across him was Jesse with a grim expression. "I'll represent Dragon Cell to go to the Forbidden Wasteland this time. What are your orders?"Nashon's hand lifting a chess piece was stopped momentarily before saying, "What do you mean by orders? Dragon Cell represents justice in our country. Since we're attending it as part of the joint trial, of course, we need to be just and fair. Not only must we do this, but we also can't turn this into our weakness. Our relationship with Harvey is quite close. If there are any doubts in the verdict, not only will it be bad for us, but it will also be bad for Harvey."Jesse's expression was dark before he replied, "Is it possible for Harvey to actually kill Durandal?"Nashion calmly asked, "What are your thoughts?"At the same time, at the Yorks of HL Casino in HK City. Lexie had just finished bathing and putting cream on her body to exfoliate the dead skin. At this time, an old-
"Dan! There's no need for you to be so pretentious and act like you're innocent!" Besides the sternness in Sienna's voice, her tone was sharp, as if she wanted to turn Dan into minced meat.Dan pretended to think about it a little before smiling, "Oh, don't tell me you're here for that Harvey? I believe an outsider wouldn't affect our relationship, would it?"Sienna coldly replied, "I can understand your fury when someone from Grand City died, and that person is your cousin. That's why I didn't stop you… I even supported you when you said you wanted to take Harvey away for an investigation. Because I believe that, as the Young Master of Parkerville, you will naturally learn everything you can about this."But I didn't expect that your sight could be so narrow… It is so narrow that it defies my expectations. You haven't even started the investigation yet and have already set up a trap for him? And you even drew the attention of the Sword Camp and the leader of Dragon Cell? You're rea
At this time, Lanny was standing at the highest spot in the Forbidden Wasteland with her hands behind her back, but her mind was filled with helplessness.They were in huge trouble now!If only they invoked the Grand City's laws and rules, then they had a 100% chance of giving Harvey the guilty verdict. And if she managed to invite everyone on her list and everyone from the Four Pillars were their own, then she could still somewhat manipulate the outcome.But when Lanny was making her calls, she noticed that everyone important she managed to contact either immediately hung up on her or totally ignored her calls.Someone like her had always been able to catch the drift. And from these details, she could tell that while the Four Pillars might not stand with Harvey, they would be completely neutral when it came to dealing with this.If things develop that way, then the chances of convicting Harvey was a 50% chance.Lanny wanted to leave and get reinforcements from Grand City. But sh
Harvey glanced at Lexie and spoke calmly, "Lexie, you're here to represent Dragon Palace, not HL Casino. When you're representing the casino, you can do whatever you want. But if you still act so willfully when representing Dragon Palace, what do you think will happen?"After hearing Harvey's words, Lexie responded, "Since I'm the wife of the leader of Dragon Palace, my husband will be able to shield me from whatever I caused. Just because he can't give me anything else, he can at least give me the right to do what I want, no?"Harvey smiled. "Then, I hope you can be as confident as ever."Lexie's figure quickly disappeared into the underground city. Jesse approached Harvey and nodded at him. "We meet again. But I'm not here to speak with you, so I'll make it short. I'll maintain the fairness of the law here. If you're innocent, then the person who framed you will be paying an unimaginable price. But if you're guilty, then I'll kill you before you suffer from too much pain before yo
