Dragon Tamer-Chapter 301 - 302: Refusing to be a Decent Person
Chapter 301: Chapter 302: Refusing to be a Decent Person
One week!
That was the deadline the Orderer gave to Runyu City.
There were still a few days left until Runyu City would officially be declared the City of Sin, which is to say, the people here were still subjects of the Empire of the Supreme Court Courtyard Continent. Yet, they were already being treated like livestock!
Such events were happening on a grand scale.
Yao Junshi was recording one by one, meticulously documenting their experiences, but the more he wrote, the more his hand trembled.
Hundreds of such encounters had occurred and, with the deadline approaching, they were happening even more frequently!
The problem was that a portion of the inhabitants of Runyu City relied on it to live. If they left Runyu City, they could hardly survive in this chaotic world. Even if they chose to leave because of the final verdict on Runyu City, the outcome wouldn’t be much better.
At the marketplace, there was a team of armed escorts who had left Runyu City on the day the announcement was posted.
By the third day, they were forcibly expelled by other cities.
No other city would accept the migrants from Runyu City!
Once the City of Sin was judged, the residents of this city were essentially on a path to death!
They could either abandon everything to wander, living a life with no fixed abode, and without a legitimate identity, or they could rot within this City of Sin!
Indeed, Runyu City had few residents from the beginning.
But few does not mean none!
When Zhu Minglang saw that bloody cart bringing Old Huang before him, he felt like a block of ice. It wasn’t that he was indifferent or numb to it, but rather this coldness was the ultimate expression of his rage!!
“Yao Junshi, record this down,” Zhu Minglang inhaled deeply and said to Yao Junshi.
“My lord, the Fake Dragons with eagle claws should be the trained beasts of the Bei Family Manor. They specialize in raising some beastly Fake Dragons to supply to the elite armies of various countries. They are well known as beast tamers, referred to as Young Master Bei, who is likely the manor’s young master Bei Yanshang,” Yao Junshi conscientiously recorded the information and detailed the identities of those who persecuted Old Huang and other hunters.
At that moment, the leader of the Azure Wolf Cavalry, Yu Gaojie, came over. He glanced at the terrible scene and couldn’t help but sigh deeply.
“Master Zhu, it might seem like hindsight to say certain things at this moment. When I was cleaning house, my corrupt subordinates confessed before they died, telling me a large portion of the protection money went to the Godly Mortal Academy. The waters run deep in Runyu City; it’s not only the plaything of various countries but also the money tree of the Godly Mortal Academy. The most significant dark force enveloping Runyu City, as Master Zhu may have realized by now, is indeed not our Azure Wolf Cavalry. We are merely minor players,” the Azure Wolf Cavalry leader Gao Yujie said. freeweɓnøvel.com
Zhu Minglang glanced at Yu Gaojie.
He didn’t hold any dissatisfaction with him for deliberately withholding this matter.
Gao Yujie and his Azure Wolf Cavalry were also just trying to survive in the cracks between major powers and warlords.
Just as he said, the supreme dark force controlling Runyu City was not these local snakes on the turf but the Godly Mortal Academy!
They had driven away the Slaughter Country Army.
They had purged the dark strength of Runyu City, stabilizing the ambitious gentry.
Now the real dark ringleaders had surfaced.
The Godly Mortal Academy!
They were the true culprits behind Runyu City’s perpetual state of half-ruin!
Runyu City…
It was just a city, from the moment Zhu Minglang got the deed to the city, he never cared much about it.
But when the Godly Mortal Academy used such despicable means to snatch Runyu City from his hands and even incited people to brutally harm the old residents of the city, how could Zhu Minglang not be furious!
“Big brother, big brother, all our brothers who were escorting the caravan have been captured!” At this moment, a little leader of the Azure Wolf Cavalry rushed over, his face filled with panic.
Gao Yujie furrowed his brow.
So even he, a local snake, had been affected?
“Are they still alive?” Gao Yujie asked.
“Alive, they want us to pay a ransom, four thousand gold per person,” said the little leader of the Azure Wolf Cavalry, his face dark.
“Give it to them.”
“But…”
“What’s more important, life or money? Go raise the funds!” Gao Yujie said without hesitation.
“Yao Think Tank, take note of this,” Zhu Minglang pointed at the little leader of the Azure Wolf Cavalry and ordered.
“Master Zhu, you already have enough matters to deal with. We, the Azure Wolf Cavalry, can handle our own issues…” Gao Yujie gave a bow.
“Since I am the City Lord, if you are persecuted, I should also seek justice for you. Give them the money first to save the lives of your men. I will get it back from them later,” Zhu Minglang said.
“Master Zhu, we appreciate your kindness, but we never expected justice. Moreover, in the eyes of others, we, who are barely surviving in Runyu City, and about to become criminals, deserve to be wiped out—that would be justice,” Yu Gaojie said, clasping his fists before turning to leave.
“Master Zhu, just forget it. You should leave this place quickly, too. This city has always been like this. When the army comes, they trample it once. When new rulers come, they ravage it yet again. Now that it has become the City of Sin, we, who covet the houses here, the fields, the cattle and sheep, and refuse to leave, are just reaping what we sowed…” an old man said.
“Yes, although there are still three days before Runyu City officially becomes the City of Sin, the people outside have already heard this news. Even if they do something outrageous now, no one will hold them accountable, and after three days, no one will have the right to hold them accountable either,” Chao Ruijin of the Copper Knife Army said.
“How could no one be held accountable?” Zhu Minglang said with a cold smile.
Even if there were only three days left, even if there were only one ‘Time’ left, Zhu Minglang would definitely not let go of those people listed by Yao Think Tank!
“Little martial uncle, I’ll handle this. Before nightfall, I’ll surely bring the criminal to you!” Hao Ye pointed at the herb gatherer who had been subjected to dragging punishment.
This herb gatherer had been tied to the back of a horse and dragged across the ground for several miles.

Hao Ye hated such bullying the most.
“Alright,” Zhu Minglang nodded and handed the lawsuit record prepared by Yao Think Tank over to Hao Ye.
“Yao Think Tank, do you know how to get to Bei Family Manor? Let’s start with the most heinous case…” Zhu Minglang asked.
Pulling people into the air and then throwing them down.
Just for the thrill of a bet, taking the lives of several innocent hunters for amusement.
He had seen many cruel people, but rarely had he encountered such vile, brutal, and inhumane beings. Zhu Minglang was determined to personally bring back this Young Master Bei from Bei Family Manor!
A good human choosing not to be, but instead behaving like a beast.
Upon hearing that they wouldn’t face any consequences, did they all stop being human?
In that case, Zhu Minglang would have to treat them as he would beasts!
