Harvey didn't react too much when he saw the man wearing the gray robe. However, Rachel was on high alert and stood next to Harvey with a frown. When Harvey noted what she was doing, he asked interestedly, "You know who this man is?""From the information I've gathered last night, this man is one of the persons in charge of Grand City's Peacekeeping Agency, Joven Greene. He's responsible for keeping the peace between the seven families. He's not that strong, but he represents the will of the seven families."When he handles the disputes between those from the Grand City and outsiders, he's usually very decisive. It's said that his relationship with the Islanders is quite good. Not only have they offered him several women, but they have also given him plenty of money and resources."The Island Nation must have pressured him regarding the matter of the cloth. It's normal to use such a relationship at a critical time…"After hearing what Rachel had to say about Joven, Harvey had s
"Don't you know what laws you have broken?" Joven snorted coldly, his face filled with arrogance. "Harvey, there's no need for you to act this way."Harvey's expression was cold. "I'm new to Grand City so I don't understand much about your so-called laws, but I'm also not interested in knowing them. But since you said I broke the law, as the Chief of the Peacekeeping Agency, you need to explain it to me, right?"Before Joven could say anything, the short-haired woman cut in coldly, "Harvey York. You intentionally targeted Sky Plane, a fine neighbor to Grand City. You intentionally used something as shameless as calling the Islanders weaklings to start a conflict between Country H and the Island Nation."You wanted to start a war between the two nations because of your personal vendetta. This is your crime…and an unpardonable one! Does it feel good when you put on the banner calling the Islanders weaklings? Do you think you're brilliant because you managed to defeat the practitioners
"You're the one that needs calcium! Our backbone is fine, thank you very much!" The short-haired woman was enraged. "Do you think someone narrow-minded like you can get cocky just because of a small victory? Do you know how powerful Sky Plane is? Do you know how weak you are? You're so narrow-minded! Forget about the strongest Origin Fist student, Mark, you can't even beat me! I'm telling you right now, you better…"Before she could even finish, Harvey frowned and immediately slapped her away. She was too noisy, and she wasted everyone's time!There was only silence when they saw Harvey slap the woman away.The Peacekeeping Agency in Grand City was in a unique position. They stood outside the normal hierarchy. Not only did they represent the will of the seven families, but they also represented the authority within Grand City.While many criticized Joven for becoming the spokesperson for Sky Plane, many would still fervently support him no matter where he went. Other than havin
"Treason! This is treason!" Joven roared as he immediately assigned a crime to Harvey. "It's true the Country H Martial Arts Alliance's Representative is always the mayor of Grand City, but they must first go through all the necessary procedures first as well as obtaining the support of the Seven Families!"At most, you're just a candidate. You're not really the mayor of the Grand City! You're already calling yourself the mayor of this city before you have even become one, and you're even challenging the Peacekeeping Agency's authority! If you're really going to do this by the book, I can assure you that the Peacekeeping Agency will not vote you in!"And now, I will arrest you for treason!"Joven waved his hand, and the uniformed officers from the agency pulled out their repeating crossbows. From how aggressive they were, it was obvious that they were going to take Harvey down—even kill him."If I want to become the mayor of Grand City, I don't need anyone's agreement, and I don't
"What?!" Besides Harvey, Vaida, and Rachel, everyone else who heard the name Mark Duane shuddered.The short-haired woman was filled with terror. "Mark is here to hold us accountable? What… What should we do? What the hell should we do now?!"All the other members of the Peacekeeping Agency had anxious expressions. Joven looked at Harvey icily and said, "Originally, I wanted to keep you alive and give you a chance to change. But look at what you did. Did you value the opportunity I gave you? I'm telling you right now that even I have no choice but to show respect to Mark. Before him, you don't even have the right to stand."Now that he's here to find you, I no longer have the right to do anything to you. Because it's obvious he's here for you!"The short-haired woman covered her mouth and viciously cackled when she heard what Joven had to say. Obviously, she believed Harvey was going to die now… And he was most likely going to die a horrible death.Harvey did not care about Joven,
But to Mark, only if Harvey was strong enough would he be worthy of his time. That was why he did not mind much and simply pursued Harvey into the inner courtyard. His fist instantly extended toward where Harvey was. His attack was extremely sharp and powerful.Each of Mark's attacks gave an indescribable overwhelming presence. If any of his attacks landed, it might actually severely injure Harvey.When the two women next to Joven saw this attack, they clapped their hands and cheered for Mark, unable to hide their excitement. They would probably even wave flags to cheer for him if it was not because they were still mindful of what would happen.Harvey showed a calm expression and simply took a few steps back. Every step he took, he would avoid one of Mark's attacks. But as everyone else saw it, Mark was making advances while Harvey was retreating, as if he was at a disadvantage.Whoosh!When Mark saw that all his attacks had missed, his expression became even colder, and his attac
"Mr. Mark! I know you care about the relationship between Grand City and Sky Plane! I know you're showing Harvey mercy despite being capable of killing him on the spot for Grand City's sake!" exclaimed Joven."I will inform the Seven Families about this! We all understand what it means to repay your kindness, so don't worry! Once you're done with Harvey, we will explain to Sky Plane! I swear in the name of the Peacekeeping Agency, from now on, no one in Grand City will dare to show disrespect to the great Sky Plane!"All the members of the Peacekeeping Agency looked at Joven, as if that was the truth of what had happened. Especially the two sexy women. Initially, they were quite shocked. But now, the only expression on their faces was disdain.In the beginning, they thought Harvey had some talents. But from the looks of it, Harvey was simply all bark and no bite. He had no power at all, but he merely pretended to be beyond reproach. Did he not know how to gauge his own power? If it
However, as more time passed, Joven managed to figure out what had happened in the end since he had some talents. It was not Mark showing Harvey mercy; but Harvey was simply too fast. He managed to dodge Mark's decisive attacks every time."What's the meaning of this, Harvey? You're the representative of the Country H Martial Arts Alliance! But all you do is run around when you fight with others. You've completely humiliated us!" scolded Joven as he was instantly angered."I'm warning you! When you face someone like Mark, you should face him directly and not depend on such tricks! Everything you do right now is a humiliation to martial arts! Not only are you wasting everyone's time, but most importantly, you're dishonoring the entire Country H Martial Arts Alliance!"In other words, you are not allowed to dodge! You must fight him head-on!"Joven was furious at this time. In his understanding, Mark should have slapped Harvey away in one strike because only that would be able to sho
