"Enough with the noise!" Howard said calmly. "Do you even know what he's accused of?""And who might you be? Do you have any say in this matter?" Yale shot back, turning to face Howard.A chorus of coughs filled the hall.If he was not entitled to speak, then nobody there should have said a word."If I'm not wrong, this man here is none other than the famed King of the West, Master Howard, correct?" Citrakuta Lord Warfield Viator stepped forward, raising his voice."Hmm?" Yale's eyes narrowed. "You're Master Howard?"Their group had come to Rackaham, supposedly to confront the Eastern defense forces, but their true target was the King of the Western Region!They could not confront the King of the West directly, but by putting pressure on Rackaham, they hoped to see Master Howard punished, perhaps even stripped of his title.That would leave Citrakuta free to act without fear of reprisal.Naturally, that was just their hopeful delusion."You still haven't answered my question.

Yale lunged at Yoel and Nevaeh as his threat echoed."Halt!" barked Citrakuta's Lord Warfield Viator with authority."Lord Warfield, they've slain my brother. Their blood will answer for him!" Yale halted, his anger seething through clenched teeth."Stand down!" Viator inhaled deeply before addressing Howard with a stern tone, "Master Howard, isn't there something off about this?""What's off?" Howard asked calmly, "Do tell.""Hank was one of our envoys. If he's done wrong, it's our place to handle it, not yours to judge!" Viator retorted, his brow furrowed with concern. "Besides, his misdeed doesn't merit death. This is nothing but senseless killing!""How amusing you are!" Howard remarked dryly, sipping his coffee before his voice dropped with seriousness."First off, it's not your place to say whether his crime is a capital offense. That judgment is reserved for the Shadow Sect alone."Besides, he tricked one of our Rackaham women, hurt our people, and trespassed on our land

"Now that we're not expecting any more interruptions, Mr. Babson, please proceed," Howard said, prompting the conversation to continue."Master Howard, the Citrakuta delegation's visit is primarily to discuss some proposals concerning the Fabia incident," Mr. Babson said, taking a deep breath before diving into his explanation.He laid out their four demands, one after the other.Finishing his spiel, he wiped the sweat from his brow. He was well aware that Howard was not the type to rough up a Central Authority envoy, but he could not help feeling on edge.Internally, he cursed Citrakuta and his gang in his heart a long time ago. That was just asking for trouble! How dare they propose such shameless conditions!"Thank you, Mr. Babson," Howard said, acknowledging the man's effort with a nod and a casual sip of his coffee.The room plunged into a deep hush, the kind of silence that felt heavy and full."So, these are the terms Citrakuta is putting on the table?" Howard finally bro

"That's crossing the line!"Right then, a furious shortcut through the Citrakuta camp.In an instant, two titanic presences exploded like a flash flood, sweeping through the hall and leaving many gasping for air.Two person in the late-stage martial ancesto were making their move!In a flash, the two old masters sprang into action, their forms shadowy as they charged at Howard, their fists unleashing a barrage as mighty as an avalanche.They came out swinging with lethal intent, clearly gunning for Howard's life."So, you've shown your hand at last!"Howard's eyes narrowed, a predator anticipating the strike.Truth be told, he was waiting for just that moment.The two adversaries had tried to mask their cultivation base, believing they were undetectable, but they could not slip past Howard's keen senses.He had pegged their true cultivation base the second they stepped into the grand hall.His earlier tactics were a ploy to draw them out. Without it, he would have no just ca

With such a mess on his hands, how was he going to explain that to the higher-ups?If Master Howard had not recovered from his injuries, today could have been a victory for their foes.The thought of what might have been was too terrifying to contemplate!As an insider at the Central Authority, he knew far better than most the critical role Rackaham played for the King of the West, Master Howard.A once-in-a-thousand-years prodigy, whose untimely death could spell disaster on a world-ending scale!"Bring them in!" After a deep breath, Mr. Babson turned to the entrance of the hall. "Arrest the Citrakuta delegates—they've attempted to murder my top war advisor!""Understood!" A man's voice echoed from the doorway.A squad of stern-faced soldiers marched in, their presence commanding and intense."Please, have mercy!" Yale's earlier bravado vanished as he fully grasped the gravity of his predicament.However, his pleas were far too late.Within five minutes, the Citrakuta repres

"Really?" Howard's lips curled into a slight smile as he rose to greet the newcomer at the door."Haha! King of the West, I hope my uninvited arrival isn't an inconvenience?"Makson Racino's robust laughter filled the air as he strode in with confidence."Mr. Racino, your visit is an honor! I couldn't be more pleased to have you here," Howard said, his smile broadening. "Come in, make yourself at home!""Hello, Mr. Racino!" Nevaeh's smile was radiant as she dipped into a graceful curtsy."Nevaeh, impressive as always. You've made quite the leap forward since our last meeting," Makson chuckled."Thanks for the praise, Mr. Racino!" Nevaeh's smile lingered as she turned to Howard. "Sir, I'll leave you two to talk. Just call if you need me."With a polite nod to Makson, she excused herself."You've handled things well," Makson commented, settling into his chair with a satisfied grin."Just a small matter," Howard replied, knowing full well that Makson was alluding to the Citrakuta

The two men chatted a bit longer before Makson excused himself.…The following morning, Howard and Nevaeh were deep in discussion in the council hall."Sir, I'm back!" In came Mystical Chubby, full of energy."Back already?" Howard chuckled. "Mr. Snyder and Anis, all patched up?""You bet! Who do you think took care of it?" Mystical Chubby flashed a wide grin. "Mr. Snyder and Anissa are here with me."The echo of footsteps followed his boast, and soon Marciano and Anissa, leading a small entourage, stood at the threshold.They were transformed. Marciano, impeccably dressed, radiated confidence and vitality, an unmistakable air of authority about him.Anissa was a vision in a pale green dress and a soft beige coat, her lustrous black hair cascading over her shoulders.Thanks to Mystical Chubby's handiwork, her skin had regained its porcelain smoothness, her complexion so delicate it seemed a mere puff could mar it. Her smile was subtle, her features exquisite, her figure elega

The group's laughter and playful chatter continued for a bit longer.Howard then took Marciano aside to a quiet sitting room, there were things he needed to get to the bottom of."I can't thank you enough for your generosity, young master," Marciano said as he entered, bowing deeply to Howard."Mr. Snyder, there's no need for such formality, it was my actions that brought you and Anis into this," Howard replied, steadying Marciano. "Please, have a seat. Let's talk.""Sure," Marciano agreed, settling into a plush sofa.After a moment's silence, he turned to Howard and asked, "Young master, have you ever thought of going back to the Wale family?""No," Howard replied firmly. "Once I left, I never intended to return."Marciano inhaled deeply. "Young master, the lord and lady may be gone, but I'm sure they're looking down from heaven, proud of all you've achieved.""I just hope I've lived up to their hopes," Howard said quietly, his gaze fixed in the distance.

In the ensuing scuffle, Howard accidentally sent his cousin tumbling down a cliff, leaving the boy crippled for life.Furious, Howard's uncle stripped Howard of his cultivation base and banished him from the Wale family.Barely a teenager, powerless, broke, and battered, Howard nearly died on the streets more than once.Two months of hardship later, he was taken in by a good Samaritan, Mendorra, head of the Ziegler family, who made him his foster son.Howard took on a new name and a new life in Mendorra.Without his foster father, survival would have been a mere fantasy. How could he not seek vengeance for the wrongs done to his adoptive family?"Mr. Snyder, do you have any idea what's at stake with this jade pendant?" Howard asked, pulling out the pendant his mother had given him."Sorry, young master, I'm in the dark as much as you are!" Marciano replied with a shake of his head. "I only learned about the pendant you carry after the fact."A few years after you left the fold,

Chapter 600

"My dear!"As the midday sun reached its zenith, Howard stepped out of the airport and immediately caught sight of a dazzling figure striding toward him—it was Talia. Before he had boarded his flight, Howard had called to see if Talia was still in Sullivan, only to find out she had been back in Mendorra for three days. She knew he was returning and insisted on picking him up herself, sparing The Judge the trouble."Thanks for going out of your way, sweetheart!" Howard greeted her with a warm smile, slipping his arm around her slim waist as they made their way to the car."Coming all this way just for me, huh? Missed me that much?" he teased."Get over yourself. I'm just making sure you haven't been gallivanting with any pretty ladies!" Talia snuggled into his embrace, her tone playful yet affectionate. "Really, you worry too much," Howard chuckled, planting a gentle kiss on her forehead."I have every right to be concerned, don't I?" she shot back playfully."Absolutely," he la
