"He's been on a case lately, and because it's top secret, he wouldn't spill the beans on the details," she explained.Howard gave a slight nod in understanding.The Shadow Sect's rule was ironclad. No one said a word about an ongoing investigation, not even to family."Is your Wadsworth family mixed up in this mess?" Howard asked, eyeing Baxter."Who do you think you are, talking to Mr. Baxter Wadsworth like that?" A tough-looking guy with a scar across his face stepped forward, jabbing a finger at Howard. "Beat it, now!"Before he could finish his threat, a sudden gust knocked the scar-faced man off his feet, sending him flying into a table. His head cracked open, gushing blood."Aahh!" he wailed in agony.Baxter's brow furrowed in annoyance. "You looking for trouble, kid?"Howard did not back down. "Tell me, does the Wadsworth family have anything to do with Cilix's predicament?"Baxter's anger boiled over. "You're asking for it, kid! Let's do this—break their arms and legs,

"The Dark Essence Sect?" A chill flickered in Howard's gaze. "They're back from the dead?"The Dark Essence Sect was notorious, a cult that practiced dual cultivation and wreaked havoc, sparing no one in their path of destruction.Over a decade ago, they were taken down by the leader of the Shadow Sect. The records showed that a thousand of their followers met their end. Since then, they vanished without a trace, silent for nearly ten years.Then, out of the blue, they have resurfaced."It's got to be the leftovers from ten years back stirring up trouble!" Lukas agreed."Cilix could be in danger. Track his phone right now, see where he's at," Howard commanded."In danger?" Lukas was taken aback.He had tried to reach Cilix after getting a message from Howard, but could not get through.He had brushed it off, thinking Cilix might just be in a dead zone in the mountains.However, Howard's words sent a shiver down his spine.Pulling out his phone, Lukas worked it for a moment.

"They're absolute scoundrels!" Sapphira exclaimed with fury. "Can you believe it? This whole year, the core members of Sullivan's other families have been picked off one by one, and it was all their handiwork!""The Wadsworths are really playing with fire!" Mystical Chubby said, his brow creased in concern."Cilix got a distress call from Sullivan's authorities a month back, asking for the Shadow Sect to step in and handle the investigation," Lukas added."Back then, we had no clue it was the Dark Essence Sect's leftovers stirring up trouble, so I didn't really sweat it."He must've dug up some solid leads lately, which is why they targeted him.""Mhm," Howard murmured, nodding slightly. "Where's he now?""Baxter's not too sure, but he thinks they've probably snatched him back to their hideout," Lukas replied."Alright, let's go pay these leftovers a visit!" Howard said, nodding decisively before continuing. "Also, pass the word to our guys to put the Wadsworth place on lockdown

He could never have fathomed that the storied Master Howard would show up in the flesh.Then he knew why Howard was unaffected by the poisoned tea. A man of his stature would not be taken down by some ordinary herbal poison.He felt a pang of sorrow for the doomed sect members up the mountain. By the end of the night, the Dark Essence Sect would likely be history.Three silver needles shot from Howard's hand, striking the man and sealing away his cultivation base."Lead the way!" Howard ordered."Yes...right away..."Shaking with fear, the man scrambled to his feet and headed for the door.The Dark Essence Sect's survivors had hidden themselves well, and it took the group an hour of nocturnal trekking to arrive at their hidden destination.Nestled in a secret dip on the mountainside was a modest estate, its wooden structures all painted to merge seamlessly with the surroundings.The estate was encircled by mountains, with towering trees on all sides. Without the man's guidance

The woman's laughter was uncontrollable, shaking like a blossom in the breeze. "Thanks!"Finishing her thanks, she playfully licked the man's cheek."Can they really do that?"Mystical Chubby watched the siblings with a sense of revulsion.Sapphira felt nauseous once more.The woman, after a suggestive lick of her lips, turned her gaze to Sapphira and said, "My dear, you must be Cilix's betrothed, am I right?""Perfect timing. Tonight, you and your sweetheart will join us siblings for a little 'practice'.""Scoundrels!" Sapphira yelled furiously. "Let Cilix go this instant!""Don't rush, sweetheart. After your 'practice' session with us, he might not even want to leave," the woman replied with a sly chuckle."You kidnapped Cilix to make him one of you?" Howard's gaze sharpened as he stared at the man.10 years after the Dark Essence Sect was wiped out by the Shadow Sect, they have resurfaced, fueled by a thirst for vengeance.They could have easily finished off Cilix but cho
