"Do you know what I'm afflicted with?" Fang Ruyan asked calmly.
What she was afflicted with was a curse, not poison.
Poison is tangible and traceable.
But a curse is elusive, a vicious secret technique that gathers a person's entire lifespan and essence blood, at the cost of sacrificing one's soul, with extremely stringent conditions for casting.
This curse now clings to Fang Ruyan's divine soul, leeching her soul power like a water leech, emitting a bone-chilling cold, gradually freezing her spiritual energy and blood.
Unless her divine soul is completely extinguished, this curse cannot be lifted.
Fang Ruyan indeed underestimated the foundation of the Fang Family and had little understanding of their power in the Upper Realm in the past.
It wasn't until she became the Fang Clan Leader that she realized the vast influence of the Fang Family in the Upper Realm.
The Fang Family in the Earth Spiritual Realm is their root; it need not be powerful but must exist.
