Who knows what curse that Qian Dafu brought upon his helper. The threads that burst out were so resilient that even Third Senior Brother, who had awakened Nascent Fire and was at the half-step Nascent Soul stage, could not break free.
If I hadn't used the second form of the "Thunder Sword Skills" three times in a row to severely injure that Nascent Soul stage user of the black banner, I wouldn't be so weak now.
Even more unexpected was that Qian Dafu survived my "Silver Dragon Hand," seemingly using some Life Replacement Talisman.
I was careless, not inspecting in time. Otherwise, how could such a scoundrel succeed?
Although he's afraid of death and pain, seeing Third Senior Brother trapped and unable to escape, his instinct drove him to block that sword without hesitation.
Damn that scoundrel for extracting the Golden Core.
Thank goodness I had a backup, or my life would have been ruined.
