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
Harvey did not agree to help him directly, but he frowned. "What exactly happened? I need you to explain to me clearly."Alexei sobbed and said, "Big bro, you know I can't stay sitting still, so I have some little hobbies like going to Hyperborea and playing a few hands in the casino. I understand that it's fine to play with what you're willing to part with, and any more than that will hurt me, so my bets are always small. I even managed to earn a little profit lately!"I was thinking that once I made more profit, I could buy a few manors by the Grand Lake! After our meal and when you all went home, I felt lucky and played a few hands. I didn't expect my luck to be so bad today that I lost everything I won a few days ago and even lost 70 million dollars!" said Alexei with a strange expression.Harvey calmly said, "I see. That's how gambling goes. You win some; you lose some. No one can keep on winning in a casino. If you can't settle your 70 million dollars debt, I can pay it for yo
Harvey was speechless when he heard what Alexei had to say. "Usually, no one would be stupid enough to bet using a betrothal contract, right?"There were no tears, even when Alexei was sobbing. "But I lost so much that I was getting agitated. It felt like if I didn't win, not only would I lose everything, but I wouldn't be able to explain it to Senior Vaida. Then, someone reminded me of the betrothal contract and made a suggestion, then I pulled mine out without thinking twice…"There's no point saying any of this! You have to help me think of something! Help me think of a way! If the news of this spread, I'm dead meat! The type that's going into the grinder! And I heard that my fiancee, Juliana Abner, will return soon. If she finds out I used our betrothal contract as a wager, not only will I become Grand City's biggest laughingstock, but she'll most likely mow me down!"Harvey narrowed his eyes. After considering it, he said, "It's one thing for being cut down. Most importantly, V
It was 12 midnight when Harvey and Alexei appeared in a valley within the border of Hyperborea. Both sides of the valley were lined with steep cliffs, with only a small pathway that allowed a single person to pass. According to Alexei, this small path was only used by the staff. Usually, everyone would use a helicopter to reach this place.He also had a helicopter initially, but he lost it too. So, he had no choice but to bring Harvey here using a motorcycle. However, Harvey did not mind since he was there to help Alexei get his revenge, not to show off.In no time, the two of them had passed through the 15-mile long paths and arrived at the end of the valley. Protected by steep cliffs from three directions, there was a medieval castle located here. The castle looked like a gigantic beast that seemed intent on devouring them all as it lay at the end of the valley. There was a clearing in front of the castle, where dozens of helicopters had been parked. Among them was even a military
Harvey squinted his eyes before saying, "This really is blood…""What?" Alexei was not sure how to react to that comment. "What blood?""Are you really that clueless or just pretending to be one?" Harvey said as he knocked Alexei on his head. "Not only did no one question us, we didn't see any security guards or attendants. Most importantly, we're already in this place but didn't hear any voices. Don't you feel that it's weird? Not to mention you're a martial artist… Even if you never killed anyone, you've seen blood, yes? And you can't recognize it?"Then, Harvey pointed at the blood on the floor.Alexei was instantly stunned as his agitated expression finally calmed down. He quickly looked around, and he shuddered. Obviously, he finally realized that this place just looked different when compared to when he was here earlier. It was strange… Extremely strange… In the past, plenty of attendants would bow to him and call him before he even arrived here.But what was happening right
However, the intense pressure from being executed by the School of Divine Sword made Alexei lead Harvey to an office by the side despite his bone-chilling fear. There was a huge safe in the office. While it would be tough for ordinary people to break, it would not be difficult for them to do so. "I remember putting my betrothal contract in here as collateral for the 140 million dollars!" Alexei explained as he forced the safe to open. While he did find his betrothal contract, which was sealed within an envelope inside the safe, he also found a few checks inside. All of them were signed by Alexei. It was obvious that all the money Alexei had lost was inside.After hesitating for a moment, he did not take the check. Instead, he simply hid the betrothal contract in his pocket. Harvey was quite surprised to see this. He thought Alexei would clear the entire safe since things were already this bad. That was enough to impress Harvey."Let's go, big bro!" Alexei dragged Harvey away after
