Chapter 1673: Backlas.h.!.+
“Humph, idiot.” The sleazy man sneered, “He should’ve taken it out long ago.”
The spiritual weapon wouldn’t block the curse’s movement. From such a close distance, the curse could definitely go through the spiritual weapon barrier and enter the little girl’s conscious pool directly!
At that time…
Certain victory burned in the sleazy man’s eyes.
Yet this person’s eyeb.a.l.l.s practically popped out in the next second. He froze beside Che Ruman, petrified, before slowly raising his hand.
He clutched at his chest abruptly…
Soon afterwards, fresh blood spurted from his mouth.
The sleazy man cursed in his mind from shock. This situation was?
A backlas.h.!.+
Not only was the puppet curse he created ineffective on the little girl, he even suffered a backlas.h.!.+
Ah! How was this possible! The sleazy man teetered in stupefaction and practically slumped onto the ground on his b.u.t.t.
Qiao Mu’s eyes, like ice beads, had already pinpointed his hiding place.
The curse that this fellow threw emitted a uniquely sinister aura.
Qiao Mu concluded in an instant that this curse Li Qian was holding was—
A puppet curse!
Meanwhile, the sleazy man, Tan Fa, was also greatly astounded.
If talking about curse pract.i.tioners, this sleazy man actually had rather great talent.
At least compared to his fellow disciples, his talent in curses was outstanding.
In contrast to his Martial Uncles who only got as far as becoming advanced-level curse pract.i.tioners even though they had studied with Martial Grandfather from a young age, the sleazy man evidently had much greater talent.
Curse pract.i.tioners were different from talisman pract.i.tioners. Unlike talisman pract.i.tioner’s orthodox inheritance, these banned curse techniques had pretty much become extinct with the pa.s.sage of time.
At least there was no systematic and traditional way to learn them like with talismans.
Curses were pa.s.sed down by word of mouth. You also had to study it secretly because once the common people found out that you were a curse pract.i.tioner, you were at risk of being burned at the stake.
The sleazy man Tan Fa was finally able to step into the ranks of great yellow-level curse pract.i.tioners with such a demanding learning environment.
He was confident that compared to a talisman pract.i.tioner at the same level, his strength would definitely surpa.s.s the latter by a great deal.
But Tan Fa was confused too right now. Why was he suffering a backlash from the puppet curse?
His conscious pool was throbbing painfully right now, and his reason told him that he needed to leave immediately. Otherwise, he might suffer an even more severe blow.
Therefore, while gripping his temples, he pressed down on Che Ruman’s left shoulder in front of Zhu Bozong and Peng Guang’s eyes.
Suddenly, he waved his left hand, and a transfer talisman matrix formed from 24 jade slips appeared beneath his feet.
“Ruman!” Zhu Bozong and Peng Guang paled in shock as they shouted.
In the blink of an eye, they saw that sleazy man Tan Fa grab onto Che Ruman and vanish within the transfer talisman matrix.
What the two people last saw was Che Ruman’s ghastly pale face.
In that instant, Che Ruman discovered that she was simply unable to fight back!
The instant this person, who only looked to be a level-13 great mystic cultivator, pressed down on her left shoulder…
Che Ruman felt like all the strength in her body had promptly been sucked away. She wasn’t even able to muster the slightest bit of mystic energy.
Che Ruman stared in horror at her companions before vanis.h.i.+ng within the transfer talisman matrix.
The transfer talisman matrix appeared suddenly and also disappeared just as quickly.
By the time Qiao Mu darted over…
