Category: Harvey York’s Rise to Power

Chapter 3801

Chapter 3801

“More importantly, that old b*stard, Dane Benett, has been saying that I’m the one stalling after getting the support of the four great Martial Arts Alliance!

“He told me to accept the conditions as soon as possible, or else the four great Martial Arts Alliances would add more!”

Colton Torres slammed the table again.

“That b*stard! Sometimes I really want just to quit!”

That said, Colton never did that.

He knew that with Dane’s narrow mind and short vision, he would probably accept such humiliating conditions.

Country H’s reputation would be tarnished entirely if that were to happen.

Colton would be hated by history itself.

Harvey York smiled after hearing those words.

“The four great Martial Arts Alliances didn’t do this. Clyde Osborne did.

Harvey explained the entire situation.

Clyde was completely embarrassed by Samuel, yet he would not dare to take revenge. Other than going against Country H’s Martial Arts Alliance, there was no other way to go against Samuel.

“The prince of the Osborne family.

“The successor of India’s royal family.

“He does have the power and means to execute something like this.”

Colton heaved a sigh.

“This b*stard is pretty damn despicable too!

“He was the one who instigated this, yet he’s pretending to be the country’s savior!

“He’s playing both sides!

“The people who don’t understand the entire situation are even looking at him as their last hope…

“While people like us are being ruthlessly insulted!

“Also, the deadline for the negotiation is coming up the day after tomorrow!

“The four great Martial Arts Alliances didn’t mention specifics, but the citizens of Country H from abroad would probably be targeted on a bigger scale if we don’t give them our statement!

“When that happens, the people will tear the entire building down out of rage.

“You and I will have to bear this responsibility even after the day we die!”

Colton let out another sigh.

“I’m an experienced man. I’m used to all the fire and flames but completely useless against such shameless people.

“I’m even thinking about letting Ansel Torres take out every single representative of the four great Martial Arts Alliances just to show them what we’re capable of.

Harvey cracked a smile.

“There’s no need for that. Why do something this direct when we can just stab them in the back instead?

“Since they want to play, we’ll just play along.

“Don’t worry. Leave this to me.

“Hang on for the next two days for me. Everything will be fixed after I make a few phone calls and meet up with a few people. 1

“I can guarantee that the Far East and South Sea Martial Arts Alliances will proudly stand behind us!”

“A few phone calls?

Colton froze before letting out a sigh.

“It’s not that I don’t believe you, Sir York. Even the Big Boss probably wouldn’t be able to do anything with just a few phone calls!

“This is a problem for the underworld! Other than threatening them, how would the Martial Arts Alliances even let us off the hook?”

Harvey smiled and patted Colton’s shoulder before leaving the office.

Soon after, he made a phone call.

“George Zabel, I need you to do something for me.”

Chapter 3800

Chapter 3800

On the next day, while Clyde Osborne was still filled with utter resentment…

Harvey York called a cab to the Martial Arts Alliance’s office building.

Other than seeing what sort of trouble Colton Torres was dealing with, he wanted to talk to him about what had happened the previous night.

After all, judging from Clyde’s personality, Harvey believed that the prideful man would not just sit and do nothing after suffering such a big loss.

Samuel Bauer’s actions seemed quite reckless, but he was actually forcing Clyde to pull out his trump card.

When the enemy is not fully prepared, it will be easier to take them out.

As soon as Harvey entered the office, Colton Torres furiously slammed his hand on the table.

“B*stards! Cowards!

“Are those vice leaders completely useless?!

“Or are those people from the sacred martial arts training grounds think that they’re above others? Don’t they care about their own country’s glory?

“It’s already bad enough that they’re not standing on my side at such a crucial moment…

“They’re even pestering me to accept the conditions as soon as possible!

“Don’t they know I’ll be branded a traitor to the country if I actually agree to those terms on behalf of Country H’s Martial Arts Alliance?

“Tell them that I’ll deal with this myself!

“If they’re unhappy about it, then just tell them to remove me from my position!”

Colton waved his hand, gesturing his workers to leave the office.

“What’s all this commotion about, Elder Torres?

“Just tell your subordinates to deal with this.

Harvey knocked on the door before heading into the office. Then he poured a cup of tea for Colton.

“I heard those so-called vice leaders who came from sacred martial arts training grounds are just elders of their respective outer circles.

“They only have the right to represent themselves at this point.

“If the actual leaders of the sacred martial arts training grounds caught wind about this, they’d definitely stand with you.”

Colton was a lot more furious after hearing Harvey’s words.

“These old b*stards only know how to train their hearts out! They wouldn’t care about what

happens in the outside world!” he exclaimed after sighing.

“Because of this, some of the scum from the inside have been flaunting their authority and ruining the reputation of the sacred martial arts training grounds.

“Just like you said, we both know they don’t actually represent the sacred martial arts training grounds…

“But the people outside don’t know that!”

Colton heaved another sigh. This was just extremely taxing for him.

After pouring himself a cup of Black Tea, Harvey casually leaned on the couch with a faint smile.

“I heard the four great Martial Arts Alliances added more conditions again.

“Now, they’re targeting more Country H citizens from abroad. Even some of the bigger cities are getting involved…”

“That’s right.

Colton massaged his temples.

“I saw the news online.

“That b*stard, Clyde even called me saying that he negotiated with the Martial Arts Alliances for us, but instead, they decided to add another condition!

“They want you to apologize at the four great Martial Arts Alliances’ headquarters! They want everyone to know the kind of criminal they’re dealing with this time!

“Where did that b*stard learn to do something like this?!

“He’s trying to get everyone against you!”

Chapter 3799

Chapter 3799

Clyde Osborne’s eyes frantically twitched after hearing the Chief Instructor’s name.

As a citizen of Country H, he knew exactly what that name represented.He had never seen the Chief Instructor in person…

But he could already tell how powerful he actually was judging from the strength of Flutwell Police Station’s first-in-command, Ansel Torres himself.

Vermillion’s voice became softer after seeing Clyde’s look on his face.

“Besides, Prince Osborne…

“You’re a treasure. Why even bother going against a dying man?

“A man will never stand behind a collapsing wall.

“We have a strong force right now. You also have most of your family’s forces under your command…

“Safe to say that you’re one of the few top talents in all of Country H.

“But even so, there’s no point in fighting Longmen for such a trivial matter.

“After all, this will badly affect your grand schemes!

“We should wait until we’re done crushing Country H’s Martial Arts Alliance and Harvey York. When we return to India, then we can send people after Samuel Bauer.

“When that happens, everyone will know the consequences of going against you!”

Vermillion showed a respectful look, as if she was completely charmed by Clyde.

In reality, she already had a grasp of his personality after having a few heart-to-heart conversations.

She knew that Clyde would not actually take out Samuel…

But after enduring such humiliation, he would not be able to bear with himself if he did not express his dominance.

“Vermillion’s right, Prince Osborne! We have the advantage right now! Country H’s Martial Arts Alliance is forced into a corner!

“We have a plan!

“We shouldn’t be pointing our weapons at anyone right now!

“Country H will definitely take advantage of the situation if we lash out!

“They have no way out after all. They wouldn’t mind being a little reckless!

“But there’s no need for us to do that!

“We can use the power of the four great Martial Arts Alliances to escalate the situation further!

“We’ll make Country H’s Martial Arts Alliance bow in front of us! They have no other choice!

“We can even spread rumors. We can say that Samuel and Harvey had been constantly humiliating Prince Osborne, who had been trying to serve his country, causing both sides to not come to an agreement!

“The people’s hatred and resentment will all be directed at them!

“At that point, they might have to end their own lives just to satisfy the citizens!”

Ebony was trying to depict the bright future he had in mind.

“Prince Osborne, you can make them suffer just by talking! Why even do anything else if that were the case?

“There’s just no point!”

Clyde took a deep breath to calm himself down after hearing Vermillion and Ebony’s words.

He grabbed a glass of wine that Vermillion had brought over before saying, “Since Samuel’s a tough nut to crack, we’ll have to wait a bit longer before we take our revenge.

“That said, I’ll never let go of that opportunistic b*stard, Harvey!

“I want him to suffer. I want him to know that he had made the worse mistake by going against me!

“This b*stard should’ve been dead already for crossing me repeatedly!

“Give the representatives of the four great Martial Arts Alliances a call!”

Chapter 3798

Chapter 3798

“Victory is right before our eyes!

“Other than agreeing to our conditions, they can’t do anything else!

“What are we still scared of at this point?!

Clyde Osborne took a deep breath before he gulped his wine down.

“Send over India’s experts right now.

“Find a chance to take that old b*stard out!”

“Prince Osborne!

Ebony stood up while showing an anxious expression.

“The people who’ve infiltrated Country H are all experts Julio Garcia brought up himself!

“There aren’t many, and their identities were officially recognized.

“These people have been hiding in the country for ages. It isn’t worth exposing their identities because of the situation…

“Especially against Samuel Bauer. No matter the case, he’s still the master of Longmen.

“If he finds out about this, he might just have an excuse to wipe us all out.

“When that happens, every single plan we have lined up will crumble in pieces!

“Please listen to me, Prince Osborne! It’s never too late to take revenge!”

Bam!

Clyde stood up and kicked Ebony to the ground with an icy cold expression.

“Are you lecturing me right now?!

“Don’t forget. The blood of India’s most noble Brahmins runs in my veins! You’re just a servant!

“If it weren’t for your loyalty, I would’ve crushed you by now!”

Ebony was sent flying for thirty feet…

But he would not dare lash out. He covered his stomach while he remained silent on the side.

“Prince Osborne, Ebony might sound a little pretentious, but now’s really not a good time to go against Samuel!

After seeing Clyde’s anger dissipate, Vermillion walked forward before tenderly leaning toward him.

Then, she let Clyde place his hands all around her body while she whispered into his ear.

“Not only is that old dog formidable, but his status is also too extraordinary.

“It’s said that he’s also friends with the Big Boss himself.

“All Hell will break loose if anything happens to him.

“More importantly, Country H’s royal court would probably use this as an excuse to drive the four great Martial Arts Alliances away.

“This would really throw a wrench in the works!

“Don’t forget. There’s still a living legend of Country H, the Chief Instructor of Sword Camp himself.

“It’s been years since he showed himself to the public, but someone got a glimpse of him while he was in Buckwood.

“It’s said that he also has a good relationship with Samuel.

“It’d be bad if the Chief Instructor gets involved too….

“When that happens, even Julio wouldn’t be able to stop him…”

Vermillion tried to articulate her words delicately.

After all, judging from her speculation, the Indians would be crushed entirely if they went against Samuel at this moment. Their plans would crumble instantly if that were the case.

It would most likely lead to a disaster as well.

If the legendary Chief Instructor himself were to kill his way to India just to fix the whole situation, nobody would be able to stop him. 1

Chapter 3797

Chapter 3797

Harvey York could not help but glance at Samuel Bauer after seeing Clyde Osborne leave with such resentment. As expected from the master of Longmen himself.

Even after failing his training to connect himself with nature, he was still as dominant as usual despite his strength being halved.

His title as the master of the country’s cornerstone was not just for show.

Clyde must have had a death wish for going against Samuel himself.

It was good that he knew when to quit.

If not, he would have been dead already.

He would also be accused of attempted assassination against the master of Longmen. “You see that, Sir York?

“No matter how cunning the enemies are, they’re still no match against pure strength.”

Samuel showed a pitiful look as he watched Clyde walk away.

Harvey merely smiled.

“This was a pretty good lesson…

“It was a shame that it’s not bold enough. It’s not quite ruthless either.

“I would’ve remembered your teachings if it was…”

Samuel sighed.

“I can’t help it. I’m too old now. I don’t have as many tricks as I used to. I’m also not as bold as before.

“There are too many things in my family that I need to worry about now.

“If this were before, you would’ve been satisfied with the lesson.”

Then, Harvey glanced at Harold Bauer.

If this were before, Samuel would have been extremely ruthless with the three young masters of his family around.

After all, he could have used the situation to test their strength…

But since Harold was the only young master left standing in the family, it was only natural for Samuel to fear Harold being taken out. If that were the case, the Bauer family’s legacy would have ended then and there.

Without a second thought, Harvey could not help but be impressed.

Even prominent figures like Samuel had weaknesses, let alone other people.

Bam!

“That old b*stard!

“How dare he?!

“How dare he hit me in public?!”

Inside the Osborne family’s courtyard hall, Clyde kicked a table down while smashing a few porcelain ornaments to pieces.

Even so, Clyde’s rage was still unable to be quenched.

He was supposed to trample on Harvey at the nursing home after receiving word that he would be there…

But he did not expect that he would bump into Samuel. Not only was he constantly slapped around, but he also had to pay a hundred and fifty thousand dollars for it.

Money was not a big deal for Clyde, but he had a strong urge to assemble his men to ambush Samuel and rip him to shreds after being reminded of his derisive and playful gaze.

“Don’t be rash, Prince Osborne!

After seeing Clyde lashing out of anger….

Ebony quickly rushed forward before speaking up.

“You can’t be this rash!

“Patience is a virtue!

“Most of our plans against Country H have failed so far….

“Using the four great Martial Arts Alliance is our only hope!

“We need to make sure that this succeeds!

“Anything else is insignificant right now!

“You can deal with an old dog when everything’s set in stone!

“Besides, the deal between the Golden Palace and us is getting a little vague. We should be careful about this…

“Think of the bigger picture!”

Naturally, Ebony was afraid of causing more problems.

Slap!

Clyde immediately slapped Ebony down with the back of his palm.

“Shut your mouth!

“Do you think you have the right to say that?!”

Chapter 3796

Chapter 3796

“You…”

Clyde Osborne was panting in anger…

But as soon as he was about to take action, he forced himself back.

He figured Samuel Bauer would probably have another trick up his sleeve since he dared to act.

If Clyde kept forcing his hand, Samuel would probably find an excuse to take him out then and there.

This would be the best way for him to solve the situation entirely.

Without a second thought, Clyde forced himself to calm down before he squeezed out a smile.

“I was just kidding, Master Bauer!

“I was just being ignorant!

“Please forgive me for being so rude.

“I won’t make the same mistake again!”

Slap!

Samuel swung the back of his palm across Clyde’s face again, causing him to stumble.

“What? Do you think you’re a hot shot?

“You figured out that Master Bauer made a hole for you to jump in…

“That’s why you’re scared?

“Aren’t you fearless?

“Aren’t you the prince of the Osborne family?

“Aren’t you the successor of India’s royal family?

“What? You’re giving up because you’re scared of dying?

“I can tell you this. If you even try anything on me, I can end your life right now and brand you as an assassin!

“After all, we can do whatever we want as long as it’s within reason, right?”

Samuel’s words were extremely blunt and domineering.

Clyde’s eyes kept twitching. He figured that Samuel was an easy target because of his serious injuries.

He finally understood that he was utterly powerless in front of the all-powerful master of Longmen.

He still had a bright future and a lot of plans to carry out. He would not just give up his life here for no reason!

Clyde glanced at Samuel before shifting his gaze toward Harvey York and Harold Bauer.

“Fine! Fine!” exclaimed Clyde coldly.

“I admit defeat!

“I’ll get out of here right now!

“That said, you can’t keep Harvey safe forever!

“I do want to see who else will protect him!”

Samuel scoffed derisively.

“You’re still trying to talk your way out of this, young man?

“I was planning to let you go already…

“But I changed my mind!

“You’re going to slap yourself in the face twice and pay up for my mental loss fees!

“If not, don’t blame me for what happens next!

“Of course, you don’t have to follow my order anyway! You’ll have to bear the responsibility yourself!”

“You…”

Clyde was boiling with anger.

He wanted to lash out, but, in the end, he could only hold himself back.

He finally took a deep breath before he said, “Fine! Fine! I lost!

“I’ll admit defeat!

“That said, someone’s going to pay for this!”

Then, Samuel showed a calm expression on his face.

“Ten.”

“What?”

Clyde froze. He could not come to his senses at this moment.

“Ten slaps. I’ll keep adding them if you keep on running your mouth,” exclaimed Samuel annoyedly.

“You…”

Clyde choked instantly. He wanted to respond but could only take a deep breath while gritting his teeth.

“Fine! I’ll heed your orders!”

He slapped himself around a dozen times before leaving a hundred-and-fifty-thousand-dollar check. Later, he walked away with his people following suit…

Chapter 3795

“Is that so?”

Harvey smiled faintly.

“I’ll do it for him, then.”

“Ha! You think you’re invincible just because you won a few matches in the ring?”

Clyde was snarling after hearing Harvey’s words.

He was about to swallow a pill to boost his strength; he was ready to give Harvey a lesson the latter wouldn’t forget

But at this moment, Samuel spoke up.

“Since this b*stard said I wouldn’t dare touch him, I have to prove him wrong.”

“If not, my reputation will be completely tarnished.”

Samuel stood up from his wheelchair. He slowly stepped forward, although his face was oddly red.

“Oh? Are you sure you want to go against me, Master Bauer?”

“Can you even stand up straight?”

“You touch me again, and I’ll make sure to slam you to the ground.”

“It’ll be bad if you decide to blackmail with this in the future.”

“You’re old! Why don’t you stop showing off already?”

“Nobody can save you if anything happens!”

To Clyde, Samuel was nothing to be scared of since the latter was heavily injured.

The only reason Clyde got slapped in the face was because he didn’t have time to react.

He believed the same thing wouldn’t happen after preparing himself for the attack.

He even assumed Samuel wouldn’t win if they actually fought seriously.

Slap!

Before Clyde was even done talking, Samuel swung the back of his palm across Clyde’s face. Clyde stumbled backward, a bright red palm print clear on his face.

Clyde was completely infuriated.

“Do you think I’m an easy target, Master Bauer?!”

“As a citizen of Country H, the blood of the country flows in you. The country gave you everything, yet your heart belongs to India!”

“How did the Osborne family raise such a b*stard like you?!” Samuel yelled harshly.

“Forget working for the country’s interests, you’re actually conspiring with the enemy against your own people! How can you take pride in that?! How dare you show off in front of my face like this!”

“You better get this straight, Master Bauer! Other than being the prince of the Osborne family, I’m also the rightful successor of India’s royal family!”

“You’ll pay for treating me this way!” Clyde exclaimed furiously.

“Is that so?”

Slap, slap, slap!

Samuel glared coldly and slapped Clyde around again, causing the latter to stumble. By then, his face was covered in blood.

“How will I pay for slapping a conspiring b*stard like you?”

“Let me tell you something. If it weren’t for the doctor telling me not to move too much so I can recover faster…”

“I would’ve snapped your neck in half by now!”

Samuel had a disdainful look on his face.

“Not just you… I won’t pay any respect even if the master of your family comes!”

“If you don’t believe me, just ask him.”

Clyde’s face was icy. He instinctively considered making a gesture to get his people to pull out their firearms and shoot Samuel.

“What’s that? You want to kill me here?”

Samuel looked at him mockingly.

“How many people are you willing to sacrifice? Are you using guns or explosions?”

“Come on! Do it!”

“You’re just a coward if you don’t!”

Chapter 3794

Chapter 3794

“Prince Osborne!”

Samuel instantly sent Clyde flying without even giving the latter any time to react.

Several people hurried toward Clyde to lift him back up.

The beautiful women behind him were shocked.

They didn’t expect a random old man to easily slap Clyde in the face all of a sudden.

Harvey stood on the side, poker–faced.

Samuel was still the master of Country H’s cornerstone, Longmen.

Even the masters of the five hidden families were only on par with him at most.

Clyde must’ve had a death wish to actually show off in front of Samuel, especially before he was even in power.

“How dare you touch me, you b*stard!”

Clyde was blinded by rage; he didn’t even care who Samuel actually was at this point.

He was being supported by India’s royal family and the Osborne family, and was ordered to use the four great Martial Arts Alliances against Country H.

How could such an impressive man as him stand being sent flying by a mere old man?

Clyde was a prideful man, after all.

If he didn’t fight for his dignity, how else was he supposed to flaunt his strength in Flutwell?

After hearing Clyde’s orders, several fighters quickly stepped in front, screaming about taking down Samuel for Clyde’s sake.

“Go!”

They were experts from the Osborne family.

Their attacks were vicious, and their expressions fierce; it was apparent they were used to blood on their hands.

Since they decided to take action, they were naturally prepared to deal a killing blow!

Harold was ready to step forward…

However, Harvey calmly stepped out and stomped on foot on the ground.

Crack!

The marble tiles shattered into pieces, flying right toward the Osborne family’s fighters.

They lay on the ground paralyzed, clutching their injured limbs.

Clyde’s pupils shrunk at the sight.

He roared furiously, and then punched a shard that was flying toward him.

Bam!

The shard didn’t break and instead flew right back at Harvey at lightning speed.

Naturally, Clyde was under the impression that he could deal with Harvey with ease.

That said, Harvey didn’t even need to do anything.

One of Samuel’s followers took a step forward and waved his hand, taking the shard into his sleeve.

The people Samuel had were naturally all experts from Longmen.

Looking at their might, Clyde finally calmed down.

He took a deep breath, and then stood up with an icy laugh.

“Samuel Bauer, are you and your family actually going to stand with Harvey?”

“Don’t you understand the consequences of doing such a thing?”

His gaze fell on Harvey.

“As you can clearly see, that old man is basically done for.”

“If he was as powerful as before, he would’ve killed me for disrespecting him like this by now.”

“I’m still standing here. Do you know what that means?”

“He wouldn’t even do anything to me!”

“He can humiliate me and slap me around, but that’s all he can do!”

Chapter 3793

Chapter 3793

Harvey thought that while he could still try to play his role as the young master…

Samuel would still remain as the master in charge of everything within Longmen.

Harvey believed he would be completely unaffected with just an honorary title.

Yet, with just a few words, all the responsibility was instantly shifted toward him!

Samuel chuckled upon seeing Harvey completely speechless.

“Since we had a deal, you can’t go back on your word anymore, Harvey.”

“This time, you’re going against the four great Martial Arts Alliances!”

“Since this is an underworld affair, Longmen has immense power!”

“From now on, every single resource and connection of the organization will be yours to control.”

“You don’t represent just yourself anymore.”

“You need to fight for Longmen’s reputation!”

Harvey sighed.

“Enough, old man. Stop provoking me. It’s just a few clowns that I have to deal with, anyway.”

There were some connections Harvey didn’t want to use before, and there were calls he didn’t want to make…

In the end, it seemed this was unavoidable.

Samuel smiled after hearing those words.

“Right. I’ll just wait for the moment you calm the four great Martial Arts Alliance.”

“Oh my! Isn’t this Young Master York?!”

“What’s that? You’re asking for a dying man’s help, now that you can’t do anything yourself?”

“Don’t you know that Samuel’s already half a cripple? He can’t even stand on his own two feet!”

“How do you think he’s going to help?”

“You think he can get you through this or something?!”

A faint yet disdainful voice could be heard not far away.

Not only did the speaker keep insulting Harvey, but he had no respect for Samuel either.

Harvey instinctively turned around. He saw Clyde strutting over, accompanied by a dozen people.

He was looking at Harvey with a disdainful glare.

Destiny would always make enemies meet, after all.

Harvey was completely calm. He wasn’t at all surprised about Clyde’s visit.

“It’s useless, Sir York.“.

“In Flutwell, or rather the entire country, nobody else can save you other than me!”

“Nobody can find you an escape, either!”

Clyde ignored Samuel, who was sitting in a wheelchair, and Harold, who was crossing his arms. and had a horrible look on his face.

Murderous intent could be seen clearly in his eyes.

“If you kneel and accept the four great Martial Arts Alliances‘ conditions…”

“Maybe I’ll even think of letting you go.”

“If not, you won’t even begin to imagine just how horrible you’ll end up!”

“How about this? If you’re too shy to kneel in front of India’s royal family, you can just grovel here and apologize.”

“If you do, I’ll think about asking the Martial Arts Alliances to go easy on you a little.”

Clyde had a prideful smile, as if he already had Harvey under control.

Several beautiful women behind him were cackling like stupid chickens.

‘Trampling on people with Prince Osborne feels great!‘

Slap!

Samuel suddenly stood up. The next second, he swung the back of his palm across Clyde’s face.

“Do you actually think I’m a cripple just because I’ve been keeping quiet this entire time?”

Chapter 3792

Chapter 3792

” Refuse,” Harvey replied after a moment of silence.

“I would’ve been in that position already if I wanted to. Why would I wait till now?”

“Besides, you already know how I operate. I’m not interested in fame and money.”

Samuel wasn’t too surprised after hearing Harvey’s blatant rejection.

“If that’s the case, I can only send word back to the Big Boss and Gavin,” he replied.

“I’m sure they’ll be disappointed.”

Harvey smiled, but he didn’t say another word.

Samuel sighed and changed the subject.

“How are you planning to deal with the situation, then?”

“After all, it’s not our style to be thrown around by a bunch of people from India and the Island Nations.”

“We’ll deal with it the same way they’re planning to deal with me,” Harvey replied calmly.

“They’ve put so much effort to band the Martial Arts Alliances togethers.”

“Since they’re confident they can take me out this way…”

“I wouldn’t mind toying with them for a bit.”

Samuel burst out laughing.

“If you’re going to play with them, you’ll have to be an official young master of the family first.”

“After all, everything will fall apart if your position isn’t solidified.”

Samuel then handed Harvey a badge with “Young Master” written on it.

“You wouldn’t reject this now, would you?”

Harvey looked at Samuel with a small smile.

“You told me all about the nine strongest military forces because you’re scared of me rejecting you?”

“Don’t worry, I’m already in the same boat as you. Another problem wouldn’t be too much to handle.”

“I’ll gladly take the badge.”

“Good!”

Samuel waved his hand before Harvey could even second–guess his decision.

After that, Harold and a few subordinates quickly walked over.

Samuel took a deep breath before giving his order.

“Send word!”

“From now on, Harvey will be granted the title of Longmen’s young master as well as the head of Law Enforcement!”

“He’ll be in charge of every single affair, including the Eight Inner and Outer Halls and the thirty–six branch leaders.”

“He will have permission to take action before reporting back!”

“If I die or retire, Harvey will become the next master of Longmen!”

Young Master?!‘

‘The next master?!‘

Even Harold couldn’t guess that Samuel would drop such a big bomb after getting Harvey here.

The rest of Samuel’s subordinates were completely shocked as well.

They knew Samuel had always looked up to Harvey, the man who joined Longmen halfway. They also knew Harvey had the right to take the position as the young master after winning the Longmen’s Summit.

However, they were still shocked when Samuel announced Harvey as Longmen’s young master.

Harold forced a smile when he looked at Harvey.

“Sir York–no, Young Master! Congratulations!”

Harvey was frozen as well.

He thought he’d only have an honorary title at best…

‘Great…‘

‘Now I’m in charge of every single thing, and I’ll become the new master of Longmen if he croaks!‘

‘What the f*ck?!‘

‘This old man got me!‘
