"Come… I'm still waiting for you to show me your disrespect," Geoffrey casually said as he gently patted Kuro's collars."I… I am sorry…" Kuro was so scared that he could not help but reply in the Island Nation language."It's… It's our fault for not being able to see who you really are! All fault lies with me! I'm a fool! The biggest here! I'm an animal! So please be merciful and don't hold this against us! There's no need to sully your hands… We'll leave now! Right now!"Kuro simply wanted to crawl and leave. All he wanted to do was to escape this place. He thought that after taking the forbidden medicine and injecting himself with the serums, he could destroy countless warriors and become invincible. But now, he deeply understood that there was still a gap between him and Geoffrey.This gap was so huge that it was impossible to close. It was something he could never surpass in this life. It was not something that some drugs could make him surpass Geoffrey."I gave you the chanc
Joven and the others could only feel the chill down their spine when they saw Kuro crawling out of the entrance. That was how tyrannical the Seven Predecessors could be, and they had the power to back it up. Compared to them, Joven was indeed just a servant."Go back and inform Sky Plane," Geoffrey said coldly. "Grand City now has a master. From today onward. Do what's expected of you. Pay your tribute when it's due… If you miss it even once, I will wipe out your entire people!"Kuro immediately crawled out of the entrance and then left. He did not dare to stay in Grand City at all. Because he believed that even if Geoffrey did not kill him, Harvey would kill him anyway. Not to mention, he still needed to report what had happened. If Geoffrey dared to say something like that, it meant that he trusted Harvey greatly.After the Islanders had left, a group of students from the Universal Sect rushed in from outside. Some of them moved the corpses, some cleaned up the training hall, and
Joven shuddered. He did not expect Geoffrey to pin such a terrible accusation on him without any hesitation…"Not only did you not uplift our country's morale, but you also humiliated our representative repeatedly! What you do right now makes you unworthy of the status you have. Do you think any one of the seven families will let you stay? It's making a mockery if we let someone like you remain the director of the Peacekeeping Agency," said Geoffrey nonchalantly. Despite his calm demeanor, he said it with absolute certainty.Joven's expression darkened as he shuddered. "Mr. Geoffrey, everything I did right now is for the bigger picture. Grand City is currently without a leader. We will be at a disadvantage if we fight against Sky Plane right now! I don't need to suffer such humiliation if it isn't because of our city. We're not as strong as Sky Plane, so the only logical choice is to keep our head down…""Not as strong as them?" Geoffrey sneered. "Mark was quite strong, wasn't he? B
What was on Dan's screen was the chart for the fluctuations in the international cryptocurrency market. Typically, someone like him should not care about meager things like finances. But the truth was that nothing in this world could avoid money.While Grand City was called a city beyond the mortal realm, they still needed money to fund their assets and trading. With the relationship between Dan and the leading traders in the cryptocurrency industry, he could easily earn no matter if he buy or sell. In his eyes, everyone in the market was his to take advantage of.When Dan saw Clarion appear on the sun deck, Dan slightly raised his head and gestured to Clarion to sit next to him. The two sexy ladies who poured drinks and seated next to Dan left, giving some time and space for the two Parkers.Clarion sat down nervously and spoke with a dark expression on his face. "I've just received some bad news. Firstly, Harvey managed to crush Sky Plane's Origin Fist practitioners. This spreads
Clarion slightly frowned for a long time before whispering, "There were already rumors about Vaida's man of destiny from the day she was born. All the Sacred Lands have their own theories about this man all these years. But from our understanding, all of the so-called men of destiny from the other Sacred Lands aren't the ones we know of from our legends."It will be best for us if Vaida can marry one of them and get the hell out of Grand City. She has been switching between madness and clarity all these years, as if there are two personalities inside of her. If she could maintain her clarity, then the situation in Grand City would be different. If you ask me, this man of destiny shouldn't exist. However, from the intel we received from the Foster estate, Vaida really treated Harvey like her man of destiny."Not only is she treating him well, she even started to cook for him like he is his wife. This is something I can't see through… Can it be that Harvey really is her man of destiny?
Clarion chuckled. "We've cleaned them up properly. No matter how skilled someone is, they won't be able to find out if it has anything to do with us.""Good," Dan nodded. "Joven is going to leave Grand City soon. Have you arranged his departure?"Clarion hesitated for a while and whispered, "I've already arranged a great place for him. The ones we asked to give him his send-off won't say anything either. But Sky Plane has a lot to complain about this… Someone from the Origin Sword Style also sent someone to Grand City and is currently waiting for us at the third secret entrance. They want to see you personally and demand an explanation."Dan calmly said, "Since when can anyone from Sky Plane come and see me just because they want to. Who do they think I am? Tell them what happened to Joven and Mark has nothing to do with us. While we will do as promised, Geoffrey's interception has caused everything to lose control. That is not something within our promise!"Tell him to get the hel
At Zimmer’s Villa in Niumhi. It was beaming with lights. That night was Senior Zimmer’s seventieth birthday party, and it was filled with numerous guests. All of his children and grandchildren presented him with gifts and said in unison, “We wish that Senior Zimmer is always blessed with good health and long life.” Senior Zimmer appeared quite rosy and energetic as he sat on his chair. He replied, “Good. All of you are indeed quite obedient. I’m very happy today, so I’ll grant each and everyone of you a wish! Just tell me what you want.” “Grandpa, I want an apartment near the ocean. It’s not expensive and it’s only over a million dollars…” “Grandpa, I want a Chanel limited edition bag…” “Grandpa, I want a BMW sports car…” “Grandpa, I want a Rolex watch…” “...” “Fine. I’ll grant every one of your wishes!” Senior Zimmer gave them his promise without any hesitation. The young children who asked for the gifts were overjoyed. They nearly kneeled down on the floor in gratitude. Lo
“It’s a message from the Yorks.” Harvey frowned slightly. The Yorks was the most influential family in South Light. At first, Harvey had been the rightful heir. But three years ago, somebody in the family wrongly accused him and claimed that he had embezzled the company’s funds. Therefore, his identity as their heir was eliminated.The entire York family had the same opinion and Harvey was disowned instantly. Furthermore, his parents were directly sent abroad and he had never met them since. “Bullsh*t! The truth is I have nothing but only twenty dollars in my pocket. The family needs financial support. What's the point of looking for me?”As he was thinking about that, he received another message on his phone. “Sir, I’m begging you now. Please help us! Didn’t you purchase some stocks of a gold mine three years ago? Recently, someone found that there’s a great amount of gold in that gold mine. Now, the stock price of that gold mine has increased tremendously!”“Now, the company’s fu
