Chen Zhou naturally didn't want this either, but in order to avoid a major conflict with them, he had no choice but to resort to this tactic.
"Wasn't the Hidden Dragon Sect in seclusion? I thought I wouldn't be able to enter the Hidden Dragon Sect during this inspection," Chen Zhou said, feigning regret.
At this moment, Qianwei suddenly became more talkative, immediately following Chen Zhou's steps, and said enthusiastically, "Our Qianlong Sect has always kept it closed to the outside world, but it has always been open to the inside world. Only the Sulong Sect and the Wolong Sect know this. It is precisely because the Qianlong Sect maintains neutrality and has no grudges with the two sects that neither sect will spread this secret. So, all along, only the people of our three Wolong sects have known the inside story of the Qianlong Sect."
Chen Zhou nodded slowly and continued, "I have a general understanding of the situation of the Su Long Sect. What about the Qian Long Sect?"
Chen Zhou's words were unintentional. He had just mentioned that his purpose was to probe the strengths and weaknesses of the three Wolong sects, so he asked the question casually to make himself seem more convincing. Otherwise, Chen Zhou would never have asked such a question.
Moreover, now that he had a purpose, he could no longer rush on his journey. He had to force himself to enter the Hidden Dragon Sect, otherwise he would definitely arouse the suspicion of the three of them.
To make his performance more realistic, Chen Zhou needed to seriously delve into the Hidden Dragon Sect and thoroughly analyze its current situation. He already had a general understanding of the Su Dragon Sect's situation.
"To be honest, although the Hidden Dragon Sect is in seclusion, its strength is currently the weakest among the three sects." Qian Wei's enthusiasm slowly faded, replaced by a sense of sorrow.
"It is precisely because the strength of our Hidden Dragon Sect has declined significantly that our Xianbei had no choice but to order the Hidden Dragon Sect to close off from the outside world. Otherwise, once this news spread, the Western Blood Clan would know that the strength of the three Hidden Dragon Sects has been greatly reduced, and they would definitely organize a second war. If such a war were to occur again, I dare say that the three Hidden Dragon Sects would never be as impregnable as they were last time."
Qian Wei said slowly. Chen Zhou noticed this fact as soon as he saw Qian Wei, because Qian Wei looked to be about the same age as Su Feng, but Qian Wei's strength was only at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage! Su Feng had already reached the Fusion stage. The difference between them was not small.
Why is there such a big difference?
Chen Zhou couldn't understand it. Su Feng's talent didn't rely on the dragon bloodline, so even if the Qianlong Sect and Su Feng Sect had the same thin dragon bloodline, their strength shouldn't have declined so quickly, right?
"Why has the Hidden Dragon Sect become like this?" Chen Zhou asked curiously.
"My lord, are you unaware? After the last great battle, everyone in my Hidden Dragon Sect was poisoned by a deadly poison from the vampires. Now, almost everyone in the Hidden Dragon Sect is infected. Only a handful of people haven't been infected, but their talents are too poor. Now, this poison not only slows down our cultivation speed but also makes it very difficult to use our true energy under the sun, practically rendering it unusable," Qian Wei continued, his tone gradually becoming dejected.
Chen Zhou never expected that the reason the Hidden Dragon Sect went into seclusion was because the sect's strength had declined significantly.
This is all because of the poison given by the vampires.
"I see. Your master sent me here mainly to confirm this matter," Chen Zhou said, a sudden inspiration striking him.
At this moment, Elder Ren also did not understand Chen Zhou's move, but he did not ask any questions. Instead, he quietly watched what Chen Zhou was going to do.
"Is this true? Your master also wanted to cure our predecessors, but he couldn't. The poison of the vampires is something we humans can never cure." Qian Wei shook his head and said regretfully. This poison is like something that grows in the body and can be passed on to offspring. This is the main reason why the Qianlong Sect has become what it is today.
Because it is passed down to the next generation, from generation to generation, by the time it reached Qianwei's generation, almost the entire clan was infected with this deadly poison, and they were completely helpless against it, only able to watch it appear in each and every infant. Every member of the Qianlong Sect was shrouded in a thin layer of black aura. This was caused by the Blood Demon's deadly poison.
"Your master sent me to cure you of this deadly poison," Chen Zhou said slowly.
As soon as Chen Zhou finished speaking, the three of them suddenly stopped and looked at Chen Zhou with surprise.
They were all certain they hadn't misheard—the poison had been neutralized! These four seemingly simple cases had plagued the Hidden Dragon Sect for over a decade, and now Xi Xiangchen had dispatched his disciple once again to save them! To cure them of the poison!
"What?! Detoxification?!" Qianwei exclaimed, too excited to contain himself. He repeatedly checked in his mind whether he had heard correctly!
If this is true, then the disciples trained by Xi Xiangchen may very well be able to solve the problem that has plagued them for more than a decade!
"Are you really capable of curing that deadly poison?" Wo Yuan's tone softened considerably, though a hint of disbelief lingered in it. So what if he was Xi Xiangchen's disciple? Xi Xiangchen wasn't some kind of doctor; how could he possibly teach his apprentice how to cure poison?
“My lord, you can’t say such things so casually! Even though you are Lord Xi Xiangchen’s disciple, our Qianlong Sect has been researching this poison for decades, but we still haven’t been able to find a cure.” Qianwei said, still thinking carefully.
They had studied the deadly poison for over a decade, and he didn't believe a mere youth could break through it.
He suddenly felt a bit more suspicious of Chen Zhou.
However, Qianwei didn't say it out loud, after all, this was also a token of Xi Xiangchen's good intentions, and he absolutely couldn't let Xi Xiangchen down.
