Transmigrated Scoundrel's Exchange System

As the ceremony came to an end, Han Cai was now an official member of the Shadow Lotus organization, and with this new affiliation came great responsibility and opportunity. Not that he planned to take any responsibility. He did plan to use the opportunities.

Following the initiation ceremony, everyone in the room took their seats. The leader, Yun Qinghong, sat in the main center chair, with the other council members seated on both sides. There were only four council members and one leader.

Han Cai sat on the third chair on the left, as he was the fifth council member.

Yun Qinghong began addressing the group, "Today is a great day for our organization and us, as we have a new member and a new nation to support us with resources. However, this also brings new challenges. As you all know, the Crimson Serpents used to control resources in Yin, but now that resource is cut off, they won't sit back. They will come at us heavily. But there is also an opportunity here. Ever since Xue Zhenwu of the Aurelian Dragons advanced and became a Law Immortal, they have been causing trouble for the Crimson Serpents. Because of this, Zhu Tianming has been busy trying to regain control over the situation. But the moment the Crimson Serpents contain the Aurelian Dragons or come to some peace deal with them, we will have to face their challenge. We need a method by which the Crimson Serpents and Aurelian Dragons cannot coexist peacefully."

The council members went into deep thought, considering how to address this issue.

The third council member suggested, "Why don't we use our spies in both organizations to stir up trouble and create problems between the two?"

Han Cai mused, "No Shit, Sherlock."

The second council member responded, "None of our spies hold high-ranking positions in either organization. We would have used that method to solve this problem if they did."

They remained silent for a while, pondering their options. Finally, the first council member said, "I heard that the Aurelian Dragons and Crimson Serpents are competing aggressively for the Mystic Sky Country. They are both trying to gain control over the royal family, but neither has succeeded yet, as the royal family's patriarch himself is a Spirit Harmony Immortal. So, they both have sent strong cultivators to this country. I heard this country has the richest resources when it comes to cultivation materials like Medium-grade Spirit Stones, Eternal Jade, and Spirit Nectar. It can provide more resources than the two countries that the Crimson Serpent owns combined. If we want to try something, we should try there."

Han Cai was surprised to hear this, as the first council member had done his homework. Han Cai coughed and said, "His name is Azure Messenger."

All the council members and the leader looked at Han Cai curiously. The first council member felt irritated for being interrupted. There was a rule among council members that when a higher-ranking member spoke, lower-ranking members should listen and not interrupt.

But since Han Cai was new and did not know these rules, he let it slide and asked, "What do you mean?"

Han Cai answered, "In Mystic Sky Country, the Aurelian Dragons plan to send someone called Azure Messenger. He is the most important man of the Silver King, the leader of the Aurelian Dragons. The Silver King plans to show off his fangs, so he has directly planned to send Azure Messenger. In this Mystic Sky Country, the Crimson Serpents might not stand a chance. All their resources are tied up, and their two Spirit Harmony Immortals are busy protecting the two countries that they own. Chances are, Azure Messenger will come in full force and make the Crimson Serpents give up on Mystic Sky Country. Since they don't have anyone powerful coming there, the Crimson Serpents will have to compromise."

The first council member inquired, "How do you know about this?"

Han Cai bragged, "I believe you already might have my details from Liang Zhen. I am very resourceful."

Indeed, they already knew how Han Cai had single-handedly taken over an entire country, destroying the most powerful sect in Yin. Liang Zhen had given a detailed report on how Yin was captured, and this was the first country Shadow Lotus was able to take control of, so they took Han Cai's words seriously.

The leader of Shadow Lotus asked, "Han Cai, what is your suggestion on what we should do?"

Han Cai answered, "We don't need to create problems for the Aurelian Dragons or the Crimson Serpents. What we need to do is support the royal family of Mystic Sky Country."

The second council member questioned, "Why should we do that?"

Han Cai explained, "The battle that is going to happen in that country once Azure Messenger arrives will be at the level of a Spirit Harmony Immortal. The royal family's Spirit Harmony Immortal can fight him off, but the royal family cannot take attacks from both the Aurelian Dragons and the Crimson Serpents alone once they decide to make a compromise and divide the country between themselves. We need to give them some support so that the struggle between the Aurelian Dragons and Crimson Serpents continues. But there is a problem."

The first council member asked, "What's the problem?"

Han Cai replied, "Don't take this the wrong way, but except for the leader or myself, anyone from the Council who goes to the country will end up dead. Azure Messenger is ruthless, and his cultivation is at the Spirit Harmony level. Except for the leader and myself, no one will be able to escape him."

The third council member questioned, "If we cannot escape him, how are you sure that you can escape him?"

Suddenly, a voice came from behind the leader, "Because I can."

They turned to look at the source of the voice and found it was Han Cai, standing behind the leader. They turned to look at the fifth chair and saw Han Cai was no longer there. Everyone was shocked. This was Han Cai's favorite technique when it came to showcasing his strength.
