The two men were wearing suits, but the suits didn’t seem to fit them at all. Their heads were raised up high, and their glares were blinding. No matter how anyone looked, they were clearly experts.Despite that, Harvey’s glare was enough to send a cold shiver down their spine, as if they had taken a cold shower during winter.They instinctively stepped back, but Harvey moved a lot faster. The moment they were about to do something, Harvey instantly appeared in front of them.Harvey didn’t hold back, since they were planning to take advantage of Aria; he instantly grabbed their heads before smashing them onto the marble table. The two experts lay paralyzed on the ground, with no strength left to struggle.It was a shocking sight; the other men in suits stopped in their tracks, looking cautiously at Harvey.Slap!Welt proudly slapped Aria on the butt before turning around to size up Harvey with a smile.“You took out my subordinates just like that… Impressive. Truly impressive.

Welt York finally understood something.If he did not yield then, Harvey York would actually kill him.He took a few steps forward, gritting his teeth before lowering his head.“I’m sorry, Ms. Aria!“I was being ignorant!“Please! Be the bigger person and forgive me!”He apologized in a respectful tone while gazing vengefully.He had to cut his losses!He would have many more chances to take revenge if he survived!“Do my words mean nothing to you?Harvey smiled faintly.“You need to show your sincerity. Kneel and then break your damn arm.“I’ll only let you off the hook if you do.”Harvey had no intention of letting Welt go. Harvey planned to teach him an unforgettable lesson.That was why he clearly brought up his conditions.After all, someone like Welt would probably do the same thing to other people if they were not taught properly.“You want me to kneel and break my arm as an apology?Welt glared coldly.He was a young master. He could admit defeat but would nev

Three hours later, the bell was finally pressed.Romina Klein casually opened the front door.She pretended she did not see Welt York, on the verge of passing out after kneeling outside for so long.“Hello. May I ask who you are?” asked Ledger York while showing a slightly horrible expression.“This is private property. The owner doesn’t welcome strangers here, either.“If there’s no important business, I must ask you to leave.”“How dare you?!A person who seemed like the butler could not help but speak after hearing Romina’s words.‘My master’s the Underground Monarch of the outskirts!‘How dare a mere woman from the villa act this arrogantly?!‘Don’t these people know the master’s been standing outside for three hours?!’Ledger quickly waved his hand.“Enough!“Watch your attitude!“We’re here to meet Sir York, not to cause trouble.”Then, Ledger smiled at Romina.“Good afternoon, Ms. Romina.“Maybe you don’t know me, or you’re just pretending you don’t.“It doesn’

“You’re exaggerating, Master York.”Harvey York smiled.“The Yorks of Hong Kong will always be theirs. I have the same surname but do not intend to get involved.“Besides, if I were to take over, the previous master of the family wouldn’t just sit back and watch either, would he?”Ledger York pulled out a half-smoked cigar before lighting it, smiling profoundly.“You might not be interested…“But, things don’t just happen because of your interests either.“They’re involuntary.“You have responsibility.“If you do end up rising to power, I do hope you remember that the outskirts’ York family also come from the Yorks of Hong Kong.Harvey set his utensils down before casually making some tea. When a faint fragrance wafted, Harvey picked up his cup again before speaking.“What do you mean by that?“You’re trying to push me?”Ledger shook his head.“That depends on the situation, time, and destiny. A mere master of the family like me can’t influence things like that.“I’m jus

“Directed toward me?” asked Harvey York right away.“I’ve done nothing to Adenar Temple.“Why would they go out of their way doing something like that?”Ledger York looked stern.“This is about Adenar Temple. Or rather, this is about an ancient myth of all the sects.“It’s said the founder of the most ancient sect had died.“But if the sects could flourish again and regain the glory they once had…“The founder would reincarnate.“Someone like that could only reincarnate inside the sects!“The three great temples brought up consuls and maidens for this exact purpose.“Then again, the sects suspected the person might come from outside the sects.“They naturally wanted to eliminate the person no matter the case.“If the Nine Eyed Beads were to end up with that person, it’d be the world’s end! Faith itself would be completely destroyed!“That’s why they don’t want to see the beads end up in your hands.”Harvey burst into laughter.“You’re saying that to Adenar Temple, or rat
