"Wait, wait, I already told you. This is the little fox spirit. It has transformed into a dragon!" Zhu Minglang said. "You're still trying to argue.
The chances of this young spirit transforming into a dragon are extremely low. The chances of it transforming into a Nine-Tailed Dragon are even lower … Fine, even if I believe you and you're lucky that it transformed into a dragon, how could it transform from an infant to an adult in just a month? The transformation of a Nine-Tailed Dragon takes at least three years. Even if you fed it some elixir or divine root, it's impossible for it to transform in such a short period of time! "The supervisor angrily threw the document in front of Zhu Minglang.
"Little brother, come with us. If you admit your guilt and repent, we can give you a lighter sentence," said the attendant at the side.
"Do you rely on its appearance to determine if it's an adopted young spirit?" Zhu Minglang questioned. "Of course, there's a mark on it.
"Of course there's a mark, but you'll need to apply to our headmaster to identify the mark. The headmaster is a god, and she's always busy. Your crime is obvious, so there's no need to alarm her. Besides, the headmaster is very protective of young spirits. If she finds out that you've done something like this, do you think you can withstand her wrath?" the servant said.
"I can go with you, but you have to identify the mark on my Nine-Tailed Dragon. I didn't commit this crime, so I hope you can enforce the law impartially," said Zhu Minglang.
"You really won't shed tears until you see the coffin. Then we'll do as you say. Divine punishment isn't an ordinary punishment!" said the supervisor.
"If I committed the crime you're talking about, I'm willing to accept divine punishment," said Zhu Minglang.
"Then let's go!"
… …
The Infant Spiritual Academy in the Li Province's Fairy's Capital was imposing.
The entire Drum Mountain was in the middle of several bustling cities. It was equivalent to a very influential sect.
Zhu Minglang entered the Infant Spiritual Academy and found that it was somewhat similar to the Dragon Tamer College. The Infant Spiritual Academy was dominated by students and teachers.
They arrived at an extremely shallow lake. There were many floating steps on the lake, carved in the shape of lotus flowers. There were also many pavilions in the lake. These pavilions faced a black pavilion in the center.
"Chang Xu, you've bribed young Spirit Cultivators and cheated young Spirit Cultivators with potential from our various Infant Spirit Academies. Then, you've sold them on the market. Your actions have made us extremely angry …" The Black Village Constable said.
"Wouldn't it be fine if I found an owner for them? Although I'd be able to earn a small profit from it, it's still better than letting them be buried in the Infant Spiritual Academy." The merchant by the name of Chang Xu said.
"Hmph, you're still trying to quibble. You're selling young spirits that no one wants to buy at the price of livestock to the slaughterhouse. Even the gods are enraged by your actions!" scolded the Black Village Constable.
"Isn't your Infant Spiritual Academy a bit too saintly? Some of the infant spirits that are similar to the Ox Beasts eat a lot of food every day. The staff members are always complaining that their daily rations are enough to feed some of the infant spirits for half a month. Since they can't transform into dragons, isn't it normal to sell them to the slaughterhouse in the end? According to your words, selling livestock is a crime. Then, wouldn't all the herders of the Rising Mountain Tribe be arrested? If they can't transform into dragons, they're just livestock. Livestock. What's wrong with selling them as meat! "said Chang Xu.
"Preposterous, preposterous. You've committed such a heinous crime, yet you're not remorseful at all!" The Black Village Constable was so angry that he slammed the table.
"If you want me to confess, you need to give me a suitable reason. You can't just say whatever the Infant Spiritual Academy says!" said Chang Xu.
For a moment, the Black Village Constable didn't know how to refute his words.
"Village Constable, why don't we interrogate the next one? The Dean will be here in a moment." The White Village Constable at the side said.
"Alright, take him to the side." The Black Village Constable waved his hand.
The suspect wasn't sent away, and was made to stand on the lotus flower steps. The lotus flower steps were divided into black and white. Black meant that the crime was confirmed, while white meant that the crime was still pending.
"Bring the next suspect." The Black Village Constable still shouted with anger.
Zhu Minglang was brought up by the attendants, while the supervisor went up and sat beside the Black Village Constable. He then passed Zhu Minglang's document and evidence of his crime to the Black Village Constable for him to take a look.
"Abandoned young spirit?" The Black Village Constable saw that it was such a case, and was instead a little impatient. "For such a small matter, why don't you just directly deal with it? Why must you send it to me?"
"The other party doesn't confess. Furthermore, he requested for the imprint of his Nine Tailed Dragon to be identified." said Supervisor Liu.
"Ridiculous. If my God works for such a trivial matter day and night, how can our Infant Spiritual Academy establish itself in the Great Sky Continent? Beat him up a few times and make him scram." The Black Village Constable said snappily. "You, pull the curtains. Don't you feel that the sunlight is too glaring?"
"You should take a look at the document." said Supervisor Liu.
The Black Village Constable drank a mouthful of tea and spat out the tea. He carefully looked at the document, then his gaze landed on Zhu Minglang.
"Your Nine Tailed Dragon is in the Growth Stage?" The Black Village Constable questioned.
"Yes." Zhu Minglang nodded his head.
"You said that this Nine Tailed Dragon in the Growth Stage was transformed from the little fox spirit that you adopted from the Shaking Mountain City's Infant Spiritual Academy a month ago. You deny that you abandoned the little fox spirit?" The Black Village Constable continued to ask.
"Yes." Zhu Minglang nodded his head again.
"Hahaha, I thought that I was pretty good at bullsh * tting. I never thought that you would be even better at bullsh * tting!" At this moment, the peddler Chang Xu on the lotus steps suddenly laughed.
"Shut up. Don't think that you can walk out of the Infant Spiritual Academy unscathed!" scolded the Black Village Constable.
The Black Village Constable stood up from his seat and walked towards Zhu Minglang.
He carefully looked at the Nine Tailed Dragon. After confirming that it was a Dragon Fox with a very high bloodline, he looked at the document again.
"I'll give you a chance to explain. How did you turn a fox spirit into a Nine Tailed Dragon in a month's time?" said the Black Village Constable.
"Yes, it transformed into a dragon. Don't tell me that your Infant Spiritual Academy has no confidence in the young spirits that you're raising?" Zhu Minglang asked back.
"Then how did it grow and transform? Even if it transformed into a dragon, it should still be in the Infant Stage!" The Black Village Constable had the same doubts as the supervisor.
"You can't do it, but that doesn't mean that I can't do it. I'm good at creating miracles. In addition, there's a problem with your trial. If you want to convict me of abandoning a young spirit, you must first have a witness who witnessed me abandoning the adopted young spirit. Secondly, you need to find the fox spirit that I abandoned. With the witness and pet certificate, you can make me unable to refute and plead guilty. You don't have either of these. Furthermore, I've already said that it's a little fox spirit. I can swear to the gods and accept the imprint of the gods in the Infant Spiritual Academy. "Zhu Minglang said.
After hearing these words, the Black Village Constable was so angry that he almost smashed his teacup.
If it was a normal criminal that was escorted here, they would have been so scared that their legs would go soft.
But today, they actually met two people with a glib tongue!
