Transmigrated Scoundrel's Exchange Systemchapter 201: cycle of poisoning

Han Cai's heart ached, not because of his first mother's story but because he didn't have popcorn for such an amazing story. Such an unfair world this was! Hearing about a drama without any popcorn that's just pure suffering for Han Cai.

Yongnian continued, "When she married in Yan family, she did because her family wanted her to. She's not much more than their pawn. The day before yesterday, she came to deliver soup. That day with the soup, she also brought this poison, which she stealthily put in the herbs that were going to be cooked for you in the future."

Han Cai sighed, thinking his father was busy making babies while considering himself the top dog. It turned out his father was cuckolded in this one. Poor man.

Han Cai asked, "Death or cultivation? What was she after."

Yongnian answered, "Death."

Han Cai sighed, "Fair enough. These people have no idea how diabolical I am, do they? She should know better than to poison the piper."

The next day, when food for Han Cai's first brother was about to be delivered, a black cat appeared out of nowhere from the shadows. The cat raised its paws, and a pouch appeared in the air. The pouch slowly opened, and red powder trickled down from it into the food. After that, the cat with the pouch disappeared.

Han Cai went back to his cultivation life as if nothing had happened.

Thirty days later, crying noises could be heard coming from Han Cai's father Yan Huan's household. The household physician of Yan Bo's house verified that Han Cai's first brother was poisoned by Hushroot Blossom poison. His brother, an Earth-grade talent, lost his cultivation.

When Yan Rui heard about Hushroot Blossom again, he flew to the Qiao and Liren households, thinking that since they couldn't target Han Cai, they were now targeting his brother. Yan Rui created a big ruckus, and the patriarch had to interfere. Both elders were brought before the treasure. This time, they said they had no hand in it, and only then did Yan Rui calm down. However, he became concerned that someone else was targeting his family using the methods of these two old bastards.

Han Cai felt a little bad for his naïve grandfather.

But he was not gonna go easy on anyone who would try to harm him. This was his first rule.

A few days later, someone tried to poison Han Cai again.

Han Cai asked, "Who was it this time?"

Yongnian replied, "Yan Wenchang, his father is core elder Yan Minghui. He handles the resources of many courtyards of the Yan family."

Han Cai asked, "Which family got to him?"

Yongnian replied, "Xie family."

Han Cai nodded and said, "Blacky, go make them pay the piper."

Thirty days later, Yan Minghui was flying around furiously. Hushroot Blossom had poisoned a young one in his family; the child was the grandson of Yan Wenchang.

A few months passed, and there was another poison attempt on Han Cai. This time it was not from an outside force but from inside jealousy. Lady Yan Huiying was the mother of a ten-year-old Earth-ranked talent who was the most promising talent in the family after Han Cai and Yan Yue.

Han Cai asked Yongnian for the reason, and Yongnian told him, "Since all the talents are getting poisoned, she wanted to use the opportunity to poison you so her son will receive more resources. At the same time, she is from the core elder Shaoqing's household. Now that your great-grandfather Rui's household has taken over the core businesses of the Qiao and Liren households, the resources of Yan Yue have been reduced a lot, so the only hurdle is you. Also, the Rui household is becoming equally influential as the Shaoqing household, maybe more, because the Rui household has a Heaven-grade talent. So wanted to solve the problem for her son and Shaoqing household at the same time."

Han Cai nodded and said, "When will these people learn? Welp, they should pay the piper."

Thirty days later, Yan Shaoqing was flying around furiously, cursing and trying to find out who poisoned his Earth-grade talent great-grandkid.

After Yan Shaoqing's great-grandson was poisoned, the number of poison attempts on Han Cai surprisingly went up. No one knew who was really behind these poisonings, so many people thought an outsider was trying to hurt the Yan family's future. Anyone who had a bone to pick with Rui household used this chance to target Han Cai, who was the most talented young seed in the family.

But Han Cai wasn't the only one being targeted. Other talented young people in the family also faced poison attempts. Yan Yue was even poisoned once. Luckily the poison was not hushroot blossom, which made her great-grandfather go to Verdant City quickly to get an antidote. The family's leaders were very worried because one or two young people were poisoned every month.

This chaos made the Yan family very suspicious and confused, and every family elder tried to protect their own talented young seeds.

Enemies of the different families used this chance to target those they had problems with, making things even worse. The family was now stuck in a cycle of poison attempts, and they were trying hard to find out who the real culprits were so they could bring peace and trust back to the family.

"

The patriarch and core elders didn't know what to do, as they had no suspects to question. Finally, they made a drastic decision: the patriarch went to Verdant City and returned with a few hundred high-grade Poison Purging Pills. These special pills were very expensive and high quality. Once consumed, they would protect the young seeds from poison for a year. If any poison entered their bodies, the pill would purge it if it wasn't too potent. If the poison was too strong, the pill would make the user feel sick, alerting them to the poisoning so they could get help as soon as possible.

All the Earth-grade talents and above were given the pill and asked to eat them immediately. If i they felt sick, they were to inform the core elders of their family immediately.
