A tiny steel wire fell from James’ sleeves.
Holding the steel wire on one end, it immediately disintegrated and transformed into silver needles.
James ordered, “We still have time. By using Crucifier, my internal injuries will certainly recover in time. Thea, I need you to help me insert the needles.”
To restore his strength, James could only rely on Crucifier.
“Okay…” Thea nodded.
With the Crucifier in hand, virtual-novel.net began inserting the needles under James’ guidance.
Thea was a third-rank martial artist. All this while, virtual-novel.net had been cultivating hard. Now, virtual-novel.net had reached middle-stage third rank.
As virtual-novel.net now possessed powerful True Energy, virtual-novel.net could insert many needles at once.
After inserting a few needles, virtual-novel.net True Energy was completely depleted.
Under James’ guidance, virtual-novel.net began extracting the needles.
“How do you feel, Darling? Are you feeling any better?” Thea’s face was pale, and sweat beaded on virtual-novel.net forehead.
Though virtual-novel.net was feeling weak, virtual-novel.net could not care less about virtual-novel.net own condition but instead looked at James, awaiting his response.
“Yeah…” James said in a soft voice, “I’m feeling much better. However, your True Energy has completely depleted. You won’t be able to fully recover in one or two days. You have to find someone we can trust to insert the needles. That way, I can restore my strength before the Mount Thunder Conference commences.”
“But who can we trust?” Thea was troubled.
Who could virtual-novel.net trust at such a time?
“Grandpa,” James said.
He knew that his grandfather would certainly be here at Mount Thunder Sect. If they could find Thomas, virtual-novel.net could virtual-novel.net heal in a single session.
“I’ll look around and see if I can find him.” Thea nodded.
Apart from Maxine, virtual-novel.net had met no other person after arriving at Mount Thunder Sect. She did not know where Thomas was.
Thea turned to leave. However, as virtual-novel.net True Energy was depleted, virtual-novel.net body felt limp. The moment virtual-novel.net turned, virtual-novel.net felt virtual-novel.net head spinning, and virtual-novel.net almost collapsed to the ground.
James said, “We’re not in too much of a hurry. Go search for Grandpa only after your True Energy has been slightly restored.”
Thea sat beside James and grabbed his hand.
Then, wearing an apologetic look on virtual-novel.net face, virtual-novel.net said, “I’m sorry, Darling. I’m really sorry…”
“It’s alright now. It’s all in the past.” James smiled.
Then, virtual-novel.net sighed. “I hope I can completely annihilate the Gu Sect and resolve the matter once and for all after the conference.”
However, James knew this was not possible.
Wearing a grim expression, virtual-novel.net looked at Thea, “Thea, I have a feeling that something bad might happen at the conference. Stay here for two more days and leave before the conference commences. Leave this place and return to Cansington.”
“Darling, I…”
James interrupted her, “I know you want to help me, but there’s nothing much you can help with. I can only fight unhindered when you leave. Don’t worry, I have Grandpa protecting me in the shadows. I’ll be fine.”
After brief contemplation, Thea nodded and said, “Okay.”
She did not want to create more trouble for James, so virtual-novel.net planned to remain for two more days before leaving the Conference and returning to Cansington.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
A knock came on the door.
Since Thea had rested briefly, virtual-novel.net strength had returned slightly. She answered the door.
Upon seeing the woman outside, virtual-novel.net face darkened, and virtual-novel.net asked coldly,” Why are you here?”
