Last Man Standing Chapter 273
"So, you must know who was behind it, right?" Yoel pressed on."Clueless," the Judge responded with a shake of his head. "That's probably something only Black Blade would know.""What's that supposed to mean?" Yoel asked, a hint of surprise in his voice. "Isn't his dossier still with the Shadow Sect? No leads?"The Judge shook his head. "That dossier's been doctored—nothing in it's legit.""Huh?" Yoel blinked in surprise. "Are you suggesting there's a traitor in the Shadow Sect?""Exactly," the Judge confirmed with a grave nod."The Shadow Sect wasn't like the Blood Shadow Force. The Blood Shadow Force was the brainchild of the enigmatic Sir, each member handpicked for their exceptional skills. They were the elite of the elite."However, the warriors' devotion to Sir bordered on fanaticism. With hundreds of thousands of them, the idea of an outsider slipping through their ranks was next to impossible."The Shadow Sect, on the other hand, had a checkered past. Over the years, it

"Really?" Howard chuckled and glanced at Talia. "What's your take on it, Talia?""No way, I don't want it!" Talia shook her head with determination. "These cars start at a whopping a hundred forty thousand bucks. I just need something to get to work and back, not some fancy, pricey ride!""We don't have to buy—just looking is free!" Howard grinned, scooping up Riley in one arm and taking Talia's hand with the other as they strolled into the showroom."Good day, folks! How can we help you today?" A group of saleswomen approached, one stepping forward to greet them.That booth was a tad quieter than the more budget-friendly ones, and the staff seemed less harried."Can you tell us about that red car over there?" Howard inquired, nodding toward 911."Absolutely!" The saleswoman beamed, gesturing for them to follow. "Right this way, please!""Before we go, could you tell me how much it's going for?" Talia asked, eyeing the saleswoman."Well, it varies with the options, but the base

The other women nearby were equally taken aback by the swift decision."Honey!" Talia's voice rose in alarm. "No, it's too pricey, I...""Sweetheart, it's not a big deal. Think of it as a present for landing that new job," Howard said, cutting her off with a warm smile before turning back to Jessica. "Besides this showroom model, do you guys have any new ones in stock?""Well, we do have one more in inventory," Jessica replied, momentarily startled before regaining her composure. "Wait... Sir, are you serious about buying this?""You doubt I can pay for it?" Howard said with a playful grin."No, of course not, that's not what I meant..." Jessica stammered, shaking her head, "Just give me a second, I'll see what kind of deal I can work out for you!""Don't bother, just ring it up. I've got to hit up a few other booths to pick up some more cars, so time is ticking," Howard said cheerfully."Huh?" Jessica was thrown for a loop. She had just encountered a high roller.The other sal

"Is that a promise? Don't you dare lie to me!" Cidrich's eyes sparkled with mischief at her words. The tantalizing thought of the two sisters sharing one man had been on his mind for far too long."Deceive you? I wouldn't dream of it, my dear," the woman assured him with an emphatic nod.Cidrich chuckled heartily. "Excellent!" He turned to the slick man sporting a gold necklace. "Mr. Redgate, Willa's clearly smitten with this car. Let's make it ours.""Absolutely!" The man agreed swiftly.Then, he fixed his gaze on Shonda. "Why are you just standing there?"Shonda, caught off-guard, quickly bowed in response. "Right away, sir! I'll take care of it this instant!"She had been wallowing in regret over Howard's situation, but fortune had smiled upon her once again, filling her with elation."Sorry to interrupt, miss, but aside from this display model, our company only has one car ready for immediate sale," Jessica interjected, approaching the young woman."That car's been reserved

Then, the aftermath of that day's events weighed heavily on Cidrich—the man in the cap had killed all his followers, and he blamed Howard for the loss.He had been out of town and had just returned to Mendorra, with no time yet to address the incident. To his surprise, the past had caught up with him that day."Wow, got yourself a new wife already? What happened to your worn-out old lady?" Yoel sneered after a quick look at the young woman."Boy, are you asking for trouble?" Cidrich's voice dropped an octave. "We haven't settled our last encounter, and you'd be wise not to test me!""Mr. Wadham, you know these guys? Who the heck are they?" The man with the gold necklace, picking himself up off the ground, glared at Yoel with a vengeful scowl."Just a couple of reckless kids!" Cidrich growled back."Good!" The man with the gold necklace, reassured by Cidrich's words, then pointed at Yoel with a threatening gesture."You've got some nerve, kid, messing with me. I promise you, you'

"Babe, he's probably gone to get back up. Maybe we should head out?" Talia suggested as they regrouped at the booth."Don't sweat it, Talia," Howard reassured her with a grin, pulling out his bank card for Jessica. "Swipe this for me, will you? The PIN's all sixes.""Sure... Sure..." Jessica quickly agreed, catching on.With the car paperwork wrapped up in ten minutes, Jessica took down Talia's address. She sorted out the details like the interior and plates and got the car delivered."Thank you, love!" Talia beamed at Howard as they left the booth."Come on, honey, you know we're family. No need for all that," Howard chuckled, then turned to Holden."Mom, Dad, have you seen any cars you like?""Howard, we're fine, really!" Kaylee protested. "Your dad's got the company car, and I hardly ever drive...""Mom, with Talia working and me getting busier, you'll be on Riley duty. Plus, it's just easier getting around with your own wheels," Howard cut in, making his case.The Holdens

"You just wait!" the middle-aged man barked after landing another kick. He then hurried over to Howard, bowed deeply, and stammered, "I... I'm so sorry, Master...""You know me?" Howard cut him off.He had pieced together who that guy might be from the way Cidrich had addressed him. Anyone who went by 'inspector' was either with the Shadow Sect or the Special Patrol.Howard's mind raced. His cover could be blown if this guy let slip who he really was."I remember you... from the War Department's training facility," Morgan Larson said, nodding with fervor.It was ridiculous of Cidrich, that no-good-for-nothing, to make him nab Howard for a thorough interrogation. If his bosses got wind of that, he could say goodbye to his career!The memory of Howard effortlessly obliterating a martial general heavy hitter from The Dark World with a mere palm strike made him shake like a leaf."You work for Hardin, right?" Howard's insight into Morgan's allegiance was spot on."Yes, that's right

"What is it?" Howard asked, turning to Yoel.In the blink of an eye, Howard's pupils narrowed, and he swiftly turned to Talia, his voice grave. "Honey, get everyone into the car, now!"His mind had been fixed on Morgan and Cidrich, oblivious to the surroundings. However, Yoel's warning jolted him, and he instantly felt the rush of several formidable presences closing in fast."Huh?" Talia paused, taken aback but wasted no time. She called out to the Holdens, "Dad, Mom, hurry, get in!"She scooped up Riley, yanked the car door open, and climbed in.She might be clueless as to what was happening, but the urgency in Howard's voice was unmistakable."Take them and get out of here!" Howard barked at Yoel."Got it!" Yoel responded, making a beeline for the vehicle."Morgan, get your crew out of here, now!" Howard then turned to Morgan, gesturing to Cidrich on the ground. "And take him with you. Move it!"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!As his last word dropped, the air was sliced by a chor

"And look at that bracelet, it's stunning! Oh, and the compact has such a unique charm! Should we get one of each to decorate our homes?""Yuffie, you're still in school. How can you afford all this?" Talia chided gently. "You have a hundred fifty-dollar budget. Spend more, and it's coming out of your allowance.""What? Only a hundred fifty dollars? You're being too tight-fisted, sis!" Yuffie's complaint was lighthearted as she playfully turned to Howard. "Howard...""Don't even think about it. His wallet is in my hands!" Talia cut her off, fully aware of her little sister's ploy."Fine..." Yuffie's pout was all in good fun."Haha! It's not every day we get to do this, honey. If Yuffie finds something she loves, let's get it for her. Who knows if it'll be here next time?" Howard chuckled."Yay! You're the best, bro-in-law!" Yuffie cheered, her face lighting up with joy."You're just making her more spoiled!" Talia gave Howard a playful eye roll and turned her attention away from

Howard's willingness to visit the antique market was not solely to assist the sisters in their quest for a legendary blade. Such weapons were treasures often stumbled upon by chance, rarely found by those who sought them.His real intent was to immerse the sisters in the rich culture of the martial arts clans they were then a part of. More exposure to the ways of the warrior guilds could only benefit them on their chosen path.The following morning, Howard's group of five set off in the direction of Nathanael. Talia and Yuffie buzzed with excitement throughout the journey, their minds alive with wonder.Nathanael, nestled in the mountains to the northeast of Mendorra and a couple hundred kilometers away, awaited them.By 10 a.m., they arrived, parking at the gates of a sprawling estate on the city's outskirts—the site of the famed market.Stepping out, they were greeted by a lively throng at the estate's entrance, many adorned in traditional robes, weapons hanging from their belts

"And that's not all. They might even be a bona fide king-level warrior." Howard's brow furrowed with uncertainty."It looks like The Dark World is a whole lot more tangled than we thought," Yoel mused aloud.Then, turning back to Howard, he inquired, "Sir, did the old man ever share anything with you about The Dark World?""Not a word," Howard replied, shaking his head."Sir, do you think our mystery person could be from one of the elite families or sects, maybe just there on some errand?" Mystical Chubby chimed in.His speculation was not unfounded. Most of the king-level warriors from Rackaham were known to hail from the secretive clans and sects."It's unlikely." Howard dismissed the idea with another shake of his head. "From what Sabertooth described, our guy seems to know The Dark World like the back of his hand.""Who's that supposed to be?" Mystical Chubby scrunched his brow in confusion."Let it go for now. We'll head back to The Dark World in a little while," said Howa

"Um..." Blood Rakshasa nodded, the woman's earlier words still ringing in her head."Sir... Sir, was what you said earlier true?" Blood Rakshasa asked Sabertooth, her voice barely above a whisper."What did I say?" Sabertooth looked puzzled for a moment."You said... You said next time, we'd go back home together to get married..." Blood Rakshasa's cheeks turned a soft pink."Hehe, absolutely," Sabertooth chuckled, his smile warm and genuine. "The boss gave me the order, and I've given my word."Blood Rakshasa's smile was shy but filled with joy.Soon after, Qemal strode in."Sabertooth, I've tracked down the hideout of the Slaying Heaven Palace," Qemal announced upon arrival."Is that so?" Sabertooth's eyes sparkled with anticipation. "Tell the crew to take a two-hour breather, then we move out!"The Slaying Heaven Palace's goons had nearly wiped out them today. Payback was due.With the Palace's top fighters gone, the rest were hardly a threat. It was time to cross the Slay

"Shadow Demon Shrine?" The woman's brow creased for a moment, but she quickly dropped the subject.She then turned to Sabertooth and observed, "You and your group have the vibe of soldiers. You're not originally from The Dark World, are you?""Speaking to our savior," Sabertooth gave a respectful nod, "we were part of the Rackaham Western Region's military before we came here."He was open with the woman who had saved over a hundred of his comrades."The Western Region's military?" The woman paused, a hint of recognition in her voice, "You're with the Blood Shadow Force?""That's us," Sabertooth confirmed with another bow."Is your leader the King of the West, Master Howard?" she inquired further."You know my boss?" Sabertooth looked surprised."Not personally, but I've heard the name," the woman replied with a shake of her head. "What's he got you doing in The Dark World?""Over the past couple of years, the world's heavy hitters have been funneling their muscle and resource

"You'll live to regret this, Dark Demon Lord!" Blood Rakshasa declared, locking eyes with her adversary. "Kill us, and Master Howard will avenge us by wiping out every last one of you in your cursed palace...""Ha! That Master Howard of yours better think twice before stepping into The Dark World again, or it'll be his grave!" The Dark Demon Lord mocked with an icy laugh."You're the fool!" Sabertooth growled. "No one in The Dark World has been born who can take down our boss. Your time's coming!""Is that so?" The Dark Demon Lord sneered with disdain. "You're clueless, all of you. You have no idea how powerful the Shadow Demon Shrine truly is!""Enough babbling. Time to end this. I'll send you both to join your boss," he declared, his presence intensifying as he prepared to strike them down."I love you," Blood Rakshasa whispered, her eyes closing."No, don't!" Qemal and others shouted in despair.Then there was a thunderous boom.However, the expected tragedy did not unfold.
Last Man Standing Chapter 673
Sabertooth sneered, watching the man's futile efforts. "You're such a fool!"He then declared solemnly, "Blood Shadow Technique, second form, Sky Slash!"With those words, he summoned all his strength, his saber carving a fierce arc of light through the air, striking like thunder at his foe.The Blood Shadow Technique was known for turning the tides against stronger adversaries.The white-haired elder's eyes narrowed in alarm. Caught mid-leap, he desperately wanted to dodge but could not. The saber's light bore down on him, a chilling aura of death shrouding him completely.In that instant, a wave of energy crashed through the air like a tidal wave, bringing a howling gale with it.Crash!Suddenly, Sabertooth was hurled away like a shell fired from a gun, blood spraying from his mouth as he flew, before he slammed into the earth, leaving a huge crater and falling silent."Sabertooth!" Blood Rakshasa's shout pierced the chaos as she spun and dashed to his side.She barely made

The man in black was sent hurtling through the air, slamming into the ground with such force that he lay there motionlessly, struggling to rise. A gaping wound, carved by the relentless sword, oozed blood profusely from his abdomen."What in the world is that sword technique?" he gasped after a torturous effort to stand, his face ashen.He had underestimated Blood Rakshasa's swordplay. Since her breakthrough to a higher echelon of mastery, her blade's might had surged, utterly dominating her seasoned adversary."The Sword Without a Name," Blood Rakshasa declared icily.Without wasting another second, she launched another assault. Sabertooth was in dire straits, and she was determined to aid him.Her blade danced again, weaving a web of sword energy that shot toward the white-haired elder, ensnaring him in an instant.The old man's eyes narrowed in a flash of panic, realizing he was trapped with no way out."This is it!" he snarled, brandishing his blade and lunging forward.How

With a thunderous explosion of energy, Blood Rakshasa's power surged, forcing the old man before her to stagger back in disbelief."Impossible! Have you broken through?" he gasped, steadying himself, his face a mask of astonishment."You bet I have!" Blood Rakshasa's face lit up with triumph.She had done it, just as the old man had surmised. Amid her swordplay, she felt a dormant core energy within her erupt, catapulting her to the zenith of martial knight at peak mastery stage.Master Howard's words rang in her head. The core energy left in her by a once-mighty warrior was too much to absorb at once. Back in that cave, she only managed a minor mastery in martial knight. However, Howard had predicted further advancements, and he was right."Let's see if you can handle a few more of my strikes!" Blood Rakshasa challenged, her spirit soaring not just from her newfound strength but also from a deeper connection to her swordsmanship."Bring it on!" the old man bellowed, his blade re
