Just as Tang Qinghe's master had said, everyone had been poisoned, and it was a highly sophisticated poison that no one had ever heard of.
This poison seemed to suppress true energy, rendering even Great Perfection cultivators barely stronger than ordinary people. Moreover, the poison was extremely covert; if one didn't deliberately gather their true energy, it would go undetected.
Trusting Zhao Zichen's character, everyone from the Cuiyan Sect, including Ye Fei, had also been poisoned.
The only ones unaffected were Ye Fei and Wang Yueryao, who didn't cultivate true energy. However, despite having dual-cultivated with her grandson for so long, Wang Yueryao's current strength, unsupported by the Earthly Force, was only equivalent to the early Soul Infant stage.
Among the many cultivators present, she could be considered utterly combat-ineffective.
