In the distance, another tree bears a gruesome sight: a body suspended with its head ced grotesquely in a different position.<fn40bb> Find the newest release on FιndNovel</fn40bb>


    The head had been violently torn away, and the lifeless body dangled from a sturdy branch, bound by the victim’s own leather strap wrapped around both ankles.


    Blood continued to spurt from the corpse’s neck, mingling with the falling rain and creating a crimson stream that trickled down to the ground.


    This unfortunate soul was the taxi driver who had just dropped off Ou Bojun.


    Interestingly, Ou Bojun had initially contemtedmitting murder on the ne.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Yet, he quickly realized that such an act would be impractical; any panic among the crew could potentially lead to a disastrous air crash.


    Thus, he shifted his focus to the taxi driver.


    The driver had obediently halted at the roadside as requested, but tragically lost his life in the process. In a fit of rage, Ou Bojun dragged the body into the woods and brutally dismembered it to release his pent-up frustration.


    Once the taxi driver was dead, Ou Bojun finally regained hisposure. He disregarded the still-dripping corpse behind him, concentrating instead on the copper mine thaty just ahead.


    Thanks to his mastery of aura, Ou Bojun’s senses had been significantly heightened, allowing him to spot the hidden sentry stationed inside the copper mine from several hundred meters away.


    There were numerous concealed sentries within the mine, which didn’t astonish Ou Bojun; after all, such a crucial guard station held immense importance for the Broken Qing Society, built with considerable expense, manpower, and resources, making security a top priority.


    Fortunately, these Primus guards were not exceptionally strong, theirbinedbat abilities ranging only between five to eight-star martial artists. This left a considerable gap between them and Ou Bojun, instilling him with confidence that he could easily infiltrate without detection.


    Unlike Charlie, who had asionally essed the “Nine Xuan Heavenly Scriptures” and achieved mastery of the aura directly, Ou Bojun had progressed methodically through the ranks, evolving from a Bright Realm martial artist to the Dark Realm, Transformation Realm, and finally the Patriarch Realm, with each step taken deliberately and solidly.


    It was only upon reaching the Patriarch realm that he truly mastered his aura. Therefore, despite his aura being an introductory mastery, his practicalbat skills and experience were formidable.


    A martial artist capable of breaking through to the Patriarch realm through perseverance is undoubtedly an extraordinary talent in the martial arts world. Such individuals have dedicated years to their craft, their pursuit of martial arts far surpassing that of the average person, often leading to an innate arrogance and a detachment from modern technology.


    Standing before the copper mine, surrounded by sectarians, Primus guards, and dead soldiers, Ou Bojun felt a sense of superiority, as if he were a king surveying his domain. He dismissed the strongest sectarian present, Bick, as merely a Dark Realm martial artist—unworthy even to carry his shoes—leading him to believe that taking risks here would be unnecessary.


    What he remained oblivious to was that Charlie had already devised a strategy to confront martial arts prodigies like him. Abandoning traditional martial arts techniques, Charlie had prepared three close-defense cannons, loaded and electrified, ready to deliver a lethal strike at any moment.


    Ou Bojun crouched down, meticulously scanning his surroundings for any other individuals like himself who might also be covertly observing the copper mine.


    After a careful ten-minute observation, he concluded that he was the only one lingering near the mine’s periphery.


    This indicated that the copper mine was not under external surveince.


    The likely issuey within the mine itself.


    With this realization, Ou Bojun decided it was time to infiltrate.


    Before proceeding, he retrieved his mobile phone and sent a message to Wu Shutong, the governor of the Right Army in the capital: “Old brother, no abnormalities detected around the copper mine. I am preparing to infiltrate and will issue a secret order to Bick in ten minutes.”


    Not long after, he received a simple response from Wu Shutong: “Yes, old brother!”
