After hearing what Harvey had to say, everyone exchanged glances. Lune and Sol were very experienced, and they quickly zoomed into the video recording and started to check the details. After carefully scanning it, everyone noticed Neve's action was extremely mechanical, and her eyes were completely blank. Even her actions activating the Rainstorm Needles were extremely puppetlike.When Neve saw this, she was shocked. "How can I fall under someone else's control like this? I'm trained in Servitas' school of martial arts, and it demands extremely high mental mastery. How can I fall into someone's control so easily? Not to mention that one doesn't have to use the Six-Paths Fragrance to control me, right? But most importantly… I've never fallen for someone's mind control until Harvey appeared… Could it be that it's you who are controlling me?" Neve immediately turned to look at Harvey, looking vigilant.Harvey rolled his eyes. "What's the point of me doing that?""So you can get my gran
There was a moment of deep thought on Geoffrey's face. After a moment, he asked Neve, "Neve, tell me about a few verses regarding your training technique that involves mental strength. I'll give it a look."Neve hesitated momentarily, leaned closer to Geoffrey's ear, and whispered a few sentences. Geoffrey's expression changed as he listened to those words. He closed his eyes and simulated it carefully in his mind.After a long while, Geoffrey opened his eyes and coldly said, "From today onward, stop practicing Servitas' mental cultivation technique. You have to give up all of it. Also, seal the remaining Six-Paths Fragrance and send them to Dragon Cell for analysis. See if there's anything inside that is hallucinogenic…"Then, Geoffrey remembered something else. "Did your teacher personally teach you all the mental cultivation techniques?" A hint of tension flashed through Geoffrey's eyes when he asked the question. If Servitas really did intentionally teach Neve a technique with s
Ten minutes later, Harvey and Tyson left the estate's gate. After that, Tyson stepped on the gas and they quickly headed to a hotel in the countryside of Wolsing.Harvey even made a few calls during the journey. George quickly sent in new information he had gathered."Sir, people from Country A hold the shares of the Geraldton Hotel in the countryside. This hotel benefits from some kind of extraterritoriality. Those who came to this place were either the wealthy or the powerful. You might have some recollection about the person who has the majority of shares in this hotel. It was the Yates of Country A."After what happened in South City earlier, they stayed silent for a while before extending their influence in our country again. The Geraldton Hotel is their family's stronghold in our country. Your ex-sister-in-law, Xynthia, is related to the Yates. This time, the Yates used their relationship with your ex-mother-in-law Lilian to invite Xynthia to their talent show in this region.
"Of course, I know you don't want to be a woman like them," the man with the slicked-back hair said as he played with a lighter in his left hand, with a confident expression. "That's why, after giving it some thought, I'm willing to give you another way out. It's the same condition as before. If you're willing to come with me, not only will I give you your dignity and endless wealth, I can make you enjoy the joys of being a woman. See? Even your mother sold you. There's no harm for you to come with me!"The man, who was called Royce Yates, revealed a malicious smile. Although a man like him had toyed with plenty of women, he never really had the chance to be with a beauty who shared a deep connection with him.It did not make him feel disgusted at all. The blood relation they shared made him feel excited. To someone like him, the more taboo something was, the more excited they would be.The bodyguards standing behind Royce revealed a relishing smile when they heard it. The only thin
"Do you think your own sister won't abandon you?" Royce said sadistically as he attempted to provoke Xynthia. "My dear Xynthia, that's not 15 dollars—that's 150 million dollars! A lot of people are willing to sell their countries and families for that much. All I'm asking them is to give you up to me…and that's nothing."I've watched so many things like this happen in the past years. If you ask me, you should just give up. I'm someone with limited patience. Once I've lost interest in you, I'll simply throw you out of the stage. And then, you'll know what awaits you after that…" Royce leaned over toward Xynthia and extended his right hand, wanting to raise her chin."No! Don't touch me!" Xynthia yelled with a dark expression. "My sister will definitely send the money! Do you think I don't know what my sister is like?""What deep sisterly love!" Royce said as he clapped. "Fine—seeing how deep your love for your sister is, I'll give you ten minutes. But remember! If your sister isn't
The scions and the politically powerful within the restaurant thought they had drunk too much and were hallucinating. The bodyguards behind Royce even slapped themselves a few times, just to make sure they weren't dreaming.It was obvious that they couldn't believe that Harvey had walked into the revolving restaurant on top of the Geraldton Hotel without a care in the world and even slapped the secret owner of the hotel to the floor.That was Royce, the scion of the Yates of Country A! How dare Harvey? How could he do that?"Just who are you?" Royce demanded. Royce finally realized what was happening. He crawled back up as he held his face, stopping his bodyguards that were going to attack. While he was used to being arrogant, he had learned from his experience in Country A. He knew that no matter how prideful he was, someone would always try to use him as a stepping stone.Someone like that… It was either a madman or a scion with a powerful background.No matter how Royce loo
Royce let out a cry as his body shuddered. He held the other side of his face, which had swelled. There was only disbelief on his face; he couldn't help but take a few steps back.He couldn't believe that Harvey dared to give him a second slap! Everyone who saw it was speechless, as if they had seen something horrifying. Many of the scions and influential people quickly withdrew along with the beauties in their arms. None of them wanted to get caught in this.One who dared to slap Royce again and again was either truly talented or had a death wish. But no matter which kind of person he was, there was no way this would end peacefully today.Even someone ordinary, maybe with a bit of influence, would fight to the death against another who slapped him twice."Brother-in-law…" Xynthia looked at Harvey with admiration. She knew Harvey was good, but she didn't expect he would act so rashly for her. After a while, Royce finally managed to recover. He held his face, the muscles on it
Harvey ignored the arrogant Royce and immediately took Xynthia's hand, attempting to turn and leave. Though he wanted to floor Royce and grind that scumbag's face against the floor, he decided to end everything here. Considering that Xynthia was still present, he was worried it might scare her.But when Royce saw Harvey taking Xynthia and heading to the exit, he thought Harvey was scared. He scoffed coldly and waved his hand; without wasting another breath, he ordered, "Get him!"The foreign bodyguards didn't even waste any more time and obeyed his command, roaring as they charged toward Harvey. Electric sparks appeared around them as their muscles turned green, and steel claws emerged from their fists. It was obvious now that they weren't normal people, but rather mutants from Country A.Many were stunned when they saw this scene and grew pale, and instinctively stepped backward to avoid them.The mutants hadn't even reached Harvey when Tyson, who had been standing aside quietly
