The medicine barrel was poisoned.
This slow-acting poison was difficult to detect. But as luck would have it, Yang Chan knew exactly how to concoct it and was naturally familiar with the properties, effects, and even the medicinal qi of the Soul-Chasing Three-Day Powder.
When he concocted poisons himself, he always chose classic examples, like the instantly lethal Five Poison Powder or the paralytic Qianji Yin. A slow-acting poison like Soul-Chasing Three-Day Powder, on the other hand, was never among his choices.
For Yang Chan, it simply took too long to take effect, and its results weren't that impressive.
He knew the No-Life Evil Cult had used many poisons in Tan City, like the infamous Profound Yin Poison.
However, the No-Life Evil Cult had never used a slow-acting poison like Soul-Chasing Three-Day Powder before. Clearly, they were deploying a new poison to deal with the people of the Cyan Yuan Sect.
