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
When Alexei saw this person, he was shocked. "It's… It's him? Why is he here? He…"Harvey slightly frowned. He thought that the man looked somewhat familiar. He immediately walked over and wiped his face clean. Then, Harvey mumbled, "Clarion Parker?"Dan's right-hand man and one of the three scions of Parkerville.Harvey already guessed that this probably had something to do with Dan. It was perhaps to lure him or Vaida into the trap. But he probably never expected that not only was Vaida and he were fine, but Clarion would be the one dying. When the thought crossed his mind, Harvey instinctively checked for Clarion's pulse and injuries.Harvey noticed that while his injury was severe, but because he practiced Parkerville's Unceasing Fist, a stream of energy was still protecting his heart. And that was enough to make him hold out until now to get help. After that, Harvey looked at Clarion's forehead. There was also a thin, bloody line. But compared to everyone else, it was much lig
"But the issue here is that even if we're not fully allied, we won't make such a devastating attack! The attack here is clear: whoever's behind this means war!" said Alexei to Harvey as he analyzed the situation.Harvey nodded before coming up with his conclusion. "Clarion's the one most likely behind you losing your betrothal contract, and the reason he's here is also because he's waiting for you to bring me or Vaida here. He probably didn't expect to have the time to do anything to us before he himself was ambushed from the darkness. Most importantly, we're quite lucky. If we're any earlier, the murderers might still be around… Then we might have to fight them."Alexei smiled when he heard that. "Which means it's lucky we didn't take the helicopter. Otherwise, we'll be too obvious. They won't spare us either.""What should we do now, big bro? Should we run or lodge a report?" asked Alexei.Harvey picked up Clarion, who was barely alive, and put him on his shoulder before standing
It was obvious that the ones attacking knew they could not hurt Harvey. However, their objective was to prevent those who knew of their identity from leaving this place alive. Harvey's expression was cold as he immediately threw Clarion to Alexei behind him.Whoosh!Dozens of throwing daggers were instantly hurled out. Then, several figures rushed out from the grass next to the helipad. All of them wore dark outfits, and they pulled out the Islander longswords behind them, pointing at Harvey even when they were still some distance away. When Alexei saw the ambushers, the fear on his face was palpable. "Who are you? You dare to ambush my big bro! Do you have a death wish or something?!"Harvey gave Alexei a look and calmly said, "Take Clarion with you and hide. These people aren't that easy to dispatch."After that, his gaze fell on the men with the longsword in their hands. Then, he asked curiously, "We don't have anything against each other, right? What do you want by picking on m
"I can save some time by killing you all," declared Harvey as his eyes narrowed, and the murderous intent from him immediately began to flow outward. It did not matter to Harvey if it was the Island Nation or Sky Plane; they were simply invaders who never gave up their ambition. He would not feel bad by killing them here, not to mention each of them here had their hands stained with blood.In short, they all deserved to die!"What? Do you want to kill all of us here alone?" The leading man said in shock before letting out a cruel smile. "Do you think you can? We know that you're a True Warrior. We know that you have great power. We also know that you easily crushed Mark! But I'm warning you… Just because the Origin Fists couldn't stand up against you, it doesn't mean that we from the Origin Sword Style are weak! We won't fight against you fairly!"If you don't value your life, then we will all simultaneously attack you! You will die without leaving a single trace here! Sky Plane nev
The man leading the ambush called for retreat as he immediately withdrew, but he was still too slow. The moment he had reached mid-air, Harvey had already tapped his finger at his energy nexus.Bang!There was a loud explosion, and the man's lower spine instantly broke into pieces as blood spilled.At the same time, eight other Island Nation swordsmen flew out and slammed onto the ground. Blood trickled from their mouth and noses, as they instantly lost all their vital signs. There was nothing more terrifying than this."Impossible… Demi-Union… How is it possible that you're at this power level…?" The man leading them shuddered. Other than the terror in their eyes, there was only despair. He could not fathom just how powerful Harvey could be. He also could not brain why he would fall into such a point that Harvey crippled him with one strike.The ambush was utterly useless against Harvey despite their confidence!Compared to their total failure, this kind of despair was the most
