Dragon Tamer

Chapter 208: Chapter 209: Throwing a Stone to Ask the Way

Translator: 549690339

“Is this the fate of a slave?”

Fang Niannian couldn’t help feeling frightened.

If the Ancestral Dragon City failed to defend its territory, would all the people of Phoenix Embankment Town, those she knew, end up the same way?

Locked in iron cages, wearing heavy shackles, the terrifying unknown of who might buy them, to say nothing of being slaughtered like livestock if nobody purchased them at all.

Although the four city-states of the Ancestral Dragon City were at peace, other city-states existed on the Li Chuan Continent, and their fates were strikingly different from the people of the Ancestral Dragon City.

In the end, one must become strong!

Wasn’t it because Ancestral Dragon City was strong enough that the Supreme Court Empire offered them protection? Otherwise, they would have been crushed by Rui Country directly.

“At the On Guard Altar, we saw a group of blood flukes devouring each other, using this blood and evil qi to transform into dragons ”

“And that Stele Furnace Pool, existing for who knows how many years, like a netherworld basin, has gathered countless evil spirits. The leech dragons born from it are probably Blood Fluke Evil Dragons already.”

What the Prophet Li Xinghua truly saw as the disaster was the Slave Altar inside Monument City!

Zhu Minglang had explained the situation to the elders of both Miao Mountain Sword Sect and Yaoshan Sword Sect. The woman swordsman Bai Qin’an, who always wore a veiled hat, showed some disgust.

“Such demoniac and toxic teachings should be eradicated!” Swordsman Bai Qin’an said.

“They’re very cunning, killing only the slaves. This way, we cannot find a legitimate reason to kill them directly,” Wu Feng said.

The lives of slaves are not protected in the slightest by the Supreme Court Empire.

Their life and death are entirely up to the Slave Owner.

Which means, even if they wantonly slaughter living people and throw them into the furnace pool, it wouldn’t be considered a violation of the empire’s laws in the Supreme Court Empire.

Moreover, everyone in Monument City who deals in this business knows that the unsold slaves are killed. It seems that the city’s rulers turn a blind eye to this

“Well, if we act directly, the people from the Sect of Sightless are unlikely to show themselves.”

While everyone was discussing how to eradicate this group of demonic scum, a woman clad in tight black armor approached. Her long black hair, matched with the body-hugging armor, gave off a striking and enigmatic charm.

The woman entered the courtyard, her gaze sweeping around, finally resting on Zhu Minglang.

Zhu Minglang recognized her but was puzzled about why she was here.

Fang Niannian and Nan Yuso also noticed this woman bore a resemblance to Qin Yang, except she looked a bit older.

“Young Master ” The woman in black armor hesitated for a moment.

“Speak your mind,” Zhu Minglang said.

“King An, Zhao Yin Ge, and Nie Chong have assembled a group of death servants lead by Hao Xingsheng, who have been tracking your whereabouts. Unless there’s an accident, they intend to capture you to force Pei Country ” The woman in black armor didn’t finish her sentence.

Zhu Minglang understood what she meant to say next.

In Pei Country, the Zhu Heavenly Officer controlled an elite army that was so powerful it could flatten any force outside of the Four Great Sects and the Six Great Clans.

Of course, the Royal Family wouldn’t allow such a powerful force to exist.

But this Black Armor Army was scattered across different city-states of Pei Country. Unless there was some great upheaval, the Black Armor Army would never assemble together and pose a threat substantial enough for the Royal Family to feel alarmed.

King An seemed to be aware of the existence of the Black Armor Army and either wanted to stir up trouble using it or wished to take it over.

“The Hao family, always the scapegoats. Those death servants are unidentifiable, with no marks, no clues, and if anything goes wrong en route, it is Hao Xingsheng and the Hao family that will have to bear the consequences while King An, Zhao Yin Ge, and Nie Chong continue to hide behind the scenes,” Zhu Minglang sneered.

“Young Master, there’s no need to worry; those death servants won’t live to see tomorrow’s light,” said the woman in black armor.

Qin Luan’s words did indeed make Zhu Minglang’s eyes brighten.

If Commander Hao Xingsheng and his group of death servants were killed, wouldn’t that also expose Qin Luan’s existence?

Zhu Minglang wasn’t quite sure how many Hidden Guards Zhu Gate had, but Qin Luan was definitely an important part of them. It would be a pity if they were discovered by King An and Zhao Yin Ge because of such a trivial matter.

“Have you figured out who leaked the news of my leaving the city gate in advance?” Zhu Minglang asked.

“We have, it was a steward serving several Miao Mountain Sword Sect Disciples in the Royal Family courtyard,” Qin Luan said.

Wen Mengru and her two junior sisters looked at each other in confusion.

They had no idea about this matter.

“Indeed, we mentioned that day’s event in front of that steward,” Little Sister Little Lu said.

“The person has been dealt with,” Qin Luan said.

“Find someone to set them up, and tell them I will be alone inside the Stele Wall tomorrow night,” Zhu Minglang said.

“Using a borrowed knife to kill?” Wu Feng’s eyes lit up immediately, and he patted Zhu Minglang on the shoulder with a sly smile.

Wu Feng liked this tactic.

No need to spend a lot of time collecting evidence, nor to bear the infamy of a reputable sect killing a minor force at will.

Let King An, Zhao Yin Ge, and Hao Xingsheng meet the Eyeless Sect for themselves and see what unspeakable things the Eyeless Sect is still hiding!

“Yes, your subordinate will follow the orders,” Qin Luan nodded.

This disposal was indeed better than a direct assassination; perhaps they might even catch a bigger fish because of it.

Qin Luan left, without a trace.

But Fang Niannian grew curious and asked Zhu Minglang, “How come I’ve never seen this older sister before?”

“I haven’t really seen her much either,” Zhu Minglang said, scratching his head.

Qin Yang and Qin Luan were orphans adopted by Zhu Gate. Zhu Heavenly Officer initially trained them to become two Hidden Guards to protect himself, believing Zhu Minglang would inherit the family business and become an incomparable Casting Master.

The Casting Master wouldn’t engage in battles and killings, so naturally, he would need extremely skilled protectors by his side.

But after Zhu Minglang joined the Yaoshan Sword Sect, those Hidden Guards originally prepared for him were already withdrawn, since he himself was a powerful God and Mortal who needed no one else’s protection.

Qin Luan was very strong; even the rarely praising Zhu Xuehen was interested in taking her as a disciple.

Just now, Zhu Minglang had sized up her Cultivation Base, but he couldn’t figure it out.

“So all along this journey, we’ve had someone protecting us?” Fang Niannian was quite surprised.

“Once we left the boundary of the Imperial Dynasty, no more,” Zhu Minglang said.

Testing the waters with a thrown stone was the most effective approach.

No matter what Hao Xingsheng could find out, the people from the Miao Mountain Sword Sect, Yaoshan Sword Sect, and Zhu Minglang’s Dragon Shepherd Team would all be waiting behind the wall.

It was another matter whether they could eradicate the Eyeless Sect or not, but that Blood Leech Evil Dragon absolutely couldn’t be left alive.

Such an Evil Dragon,

Relying solely on the lives of slaves that couldn’t be sold to survive? Zhu Minglang would never believe it!
