"Poison?" the youth muttered lightly, his face turning slightly white at the thought. "Impossible, how could I have missed such a thing? You're lying," the youth cried out in slight panic.
"You'll find out if I'm lying or not soon enough," Iris replied calmly, as if her opponent was already in her clutches.
Normally when a cultivator used poison on their weapons, it was readily apparent to the opponent. Poison users would normally only be able to get one or two good attacks in during a fight, as their use of poison indicated they were most likely weaker combat prowess wise. As such, they would need to use a large enough amount of poison on their blades to overwhelm their opponent with just a strike or two.
From the side, John raised an eyebrow at Iris's words, as even he did not notice the poison at first. However, he was not fighting Iris, and so had no reason to carefully inspect her blades at the time.
