Previously, because the Five Rats were relatively lenient and demanded less money, the rchants didn't have to set harsh prices, and their average net profits were about 10%-15%. But now, with the Wild Wolf Gang extorting so ruthlessly, it led to the rchants not only making no profit but actually losing money! The more successful the business, the greater the loss!
All of a sudden, all the rchants were furious. They had thought the Wild Wolf Gang was the sa as the forr Five Rats and gathered together to confront them, declaring that they would no longer pay any taxes.
Unfortunately, the Wild Wolf Gang, being a gang with a brutal nature, imdiately broke the legs of several leaders and then threw them into the street, proclaiming that no one was allowed to touch them. They were to crawl back ho on their own, and anyone who dared to help them would end up with the sa fate. The Wild Wolf Gang wouldn't mind breaking their legs too.
So really didn't believe in this evil, and actually went over, trying to carry the individuals away, but as soon as they picked them up, a bunch of the Wild Wolf Gang charged out. Without a word, they broke the legs of several individuals, repeating the sa warning that no one was allowed to help them, they could either die there or crawl back.
Moreover, the Wild Wolf Gang declared that because they were new to the area and everyone was unfamiliar with them, if there was a next ti, they would exterminate the entire family of the offender! And nobody should doubt it; everyone was free to try.
Under the gaze of all the citizens, the few leaders dragged their broken legs and inched back to their hos... But as long-ti residents, how could the people swallow this insult!
In their anger, the next morning, the rchants and citizens gathered a hundred people, preparing to arm themselves and confront the gang. Unfortunately, the Wild Wolf Gang clearly had experience with this, for as they were gathering, more than thirty mbers of the Wild Wolf Gang appeared on their Giant Dragons, enclosing the small plaza where everyone was eting, making it completely impassable.
Facing those terrifying Giant Dragons, all the rchants imdiately turned pale. At a glance, it was clear that all of them were at least Gold-level experts, and the strongest among them had even reached the Crystal tier! Such power was not sothing ordinary citizens could contend with; even if they all worked together, they would hardly be able to resist.
However, even so, the rchants still refused to submit. In their view, since these guys wanted to make money from them, they naturally wouldn't dare to go too far. Supported by this idea, a dozen rchants who possessed so martial strength summoned their Giant Dragons, actually attempting to confront the opposition!
Confronted with the Dragons that took to the sky, the Wild Wolf Gang didn't waste any words. More than thirty Giant Dragons launched their attacks at once, and in the blink of an eye, the dozen rchants who had so martial power were instantly blasted to pieces, with chunks of their flesh splattering everywhere and even landing in courtyards and on rooftops thousands of ters away.
Facing such brutal tactics from the other side, all the rchants were stunned. Right then, the leader of the Wild Wolf Gang — Wild Wolf — finally appeared, coldly looking down at the hundreds of rchants below and coolly announced a series of regulations.
According to the world's common rules, unless rchants forcefully resisted, gangs were absolutely forbidden from harming anyone in the city. This rule was universal; if any gang indiscriminately slaughtered the townspeople, they would face joint retribution from all the gangs. In such a case... even the Nine Great Experts being present would be useless.
The reason for such rules was that gang mbers also ca from various cities. Imagine, if one's own parents or children could be killed at will, how could anyone feel at ease wandering outside?
Therefore, all gangs had to follow one rule: unless faced with ard resistance, even a gang could not kill anyone at will! Even if soone didn't pay their taxes, they could be beaten or detained, but not arbitrarily killed, otherwise, in this vast world, there would be no place for that gang, and the entire world would unite against them.
For example, although the young gang leader had his eyes on Ming Xuan's mother's beauty, he couldn't just take her away. He needed an excuse, such as declaring that Xuan's mother hadn't paid taxes; otherwise, he couldn't simply take her.
As for the subsequent fight, it also happened because Ming Xuan struck first. Since he dared to resist with force, it ant that even if they killed Ming Xuan on the spot, no one would have anything to say; that was the rule!
Now, these rchants clearly didn't understand this and dared to summon Dragons, which was a major taboo. In any city guarded by a gang, no one was allowed to fly at will; otherwise, it would be viewed as a provocation!
Although those few rchants hadn't attacked, the re fact of summoning Dragons and taking to the skies ant that the gang could deal with them as they pleased, whether it was killing or flaying, no one could fault them for it.
Wild Wolf didn't say much. He simply told everyone not to challenge the authority of the Wild Wolf Gang. From now on, the shops of the rchants who just died would be confiscated and operated by the Wild Wolf Gang! Finally... Wild Wolf also warned everyone that if anyone felt they had enough of buying and selling, they were welco to challenge the Wild Wolf.
Wild Wolf was very much looking forward to monopolizing all comrce in Wave Valley City!
After Wild Wolf Gang's explanation, clarification, and warnings, all the rchants finally understood what had happened. Resistance was futile. The Wild Wolf Gang would love for them to resist every day, giving them the perfect excuse to seize all the rchants' assets. As Martial Artists, they had no qualms about killing!
