Aur began training again, using the killer move: Nature Harmony, to conceal his presence.
Time passed in the blink of an eye, and two days had already gone by.
At this moment, three people stood outside the village. One was a robust merchant, and the other two were a tall woman and a boy, both with sharp eyebrows that gave them a heroic look.
"Alright, we will be leaving now," Maurice said reluctantly.
"Yes," the second master nodded expressionlessly.
"I had hoped that the divine investigator could have stayed a little longer..."
Hearing these, Maurice had a hesitating expression.
At that moment, Thelma's voice rang out, "We have work to do. The sect has called us to catch the thousand-hand demonic lord, so we cannot stay here for long."
Shaun, the second master, raised his brows slightly upon hearing this.
"That demonic lord?" his voice contained some trepidation as if he had remembered something that made him shudder.
"Yes, that demonic wizard has slaughtered thousands of children to create his famous tier four spell. He simply cannot be allowed to live, so our Divine Order Sect has ordered all of us to assemble and kill him together."
"That demon cannot be allowed to live. Those poor innocents must have truly suffered. He is a sinner of all humanity. You must not allow him to live. I am sorry for doubting the divine investigator," Shaun roared righteously.
Thelma just nodded indifferently and walked out.
"Let's go, Maurice."
"Uh, yes, master," Maurice followed her with some hesitation.
"Aren't you satisfied? We have basically found the murderer; the only thing left is evidence."
"I understand, teacher. It's just that my heart feels uneasy when I find out that this demon is actually running free. He might even become a demonic wizard in the future with the alchemy of his talent. He might even become a lord."
Thelma's eyes narrowed slightly. "It's not easy to become a lord for tier four wizards. Besides, we will come back soon, and we can take care of that person while we are returning."
"Thank you, teacher."
Just then, Aur, who was sitting cross-legged, snapped open his eyes.
He looked at the badge that was vibrating on the table.
"Is it finally time?" Aur muttered in a strange tone, feeling the strength coursing through his veins.
Even though Aur couldn't materialise the blood and Qi outside his body, internally it formed an armour-shaped structure that tightly protected him, and his muscles all became very strong, changing into an armour shape just like the blood and Qi.
Not only that, Aur felt that his bones were as strong as a tier three lethal artefact, with his perception reaching a height of fifty kilometres around him.
Of course, various other abilities were also enhanced.
"Muscle system."

She immediately went towards him with a smile on her face.
"Aur, please save me. I can do anything you want me to do as long as you can save me," Anne shouted at the top of her lungs.
Aur, however, only glanced at her and looked at the wizard who was chasing after her.
"You can continue," he said in an extremely cold voice as he showed his badge to them.
The wizards were stunned when they saw the badge, but upon hearing the instruction, their expressions became malevolent as they ruthlessly attacked her without mercy, killing her right there.
Anne still had a stunned expression on her face, filled with confusion and despair, as she slowly closed her eyes.
"Why would I save someone who plotted against me and is so weak?" Aur thought with a puzzled expression.
Maybe the girl thought he coveted her beauty or something, so she might have had hope...
Either way, she was dead now.
Aur's speed quickly increased as he headed directly to one of the familiar buildings.
The treasure pavilion—this pagoda-style building that Aur had long been envious of.
Not only did this place have top-grade magic, but it also contained lethal artefacts and other treasures. It wasn't called the treasure house for no reason.
Aur quickly arrived there, but his expression changed slightly upon seeing all the corpses on the ground. The scene was not much less grotesque than what was happening outside.
He remembered them as the guards who had immediately pointed their lethal artefacts at him the moment he appeared in their sight.
But now they had died such miserable deaths. He wanted to use the thieving hand to quickly steal spells, but his thoughts were too naive.
This was a magic he had gotten from here, and although it was very hard to master, there were still some spells left that could steal the spells of others.
Aur found that all these corpses' mental spaces had collapsed, most likely because of the thieving hand spell.
Otherwise, the collapse of a wizard's mental space is very slow and could take years, depending on how strong they are.
"The First Elder's faction has already occupied these places?" Aur thought with a frown on his face, but his eyes were determined.
Since there would be an explosion soon, and even if there wasn't, he had the confidence to survive even in front of two tier-three wizards, so he wasn't scared to take action.
His crimson gaze flashed with murderous intent as he walked forward, crossing the miserable corpses and entering the pagoda-shaped building.
"Aur?" a surprised voice sounded the moment he entered the place.
Aur calmly looked at Earl, who was soaked in blood.
"What are you doing here?" Earl asked. In response, Aur just remained silent.
Suddenly, Earl felt a bad premonition that made his body tremble uncontrollably.
Boom!
The only thing he heard was the wind being torn and the void collapsing before he felt a searing pain that made his world go blank.
Aur calmly retracted his fist.
"Who are you? How dare you kill the young leader," one of them shouted, his face contorted with rage. His body trembled in anger.
His job was to protect the son of the south village leader. Now, the young leader had died right in front of him. How could he explain this to Aiken?
"Damn it," the man gritted his teeth.
"You can go meet him," Aur's indifferent voice fell, sending a chill down the man's spine before blood splattered.
