Chapter 112: Overbearing Aura

  "Is it finally here?"

  Ye Han jumped down from the broad back of Xintianweng, looking at the crowds coming and going around him. The 'Golden Light' that followed closely was also released from the iron cage, and couldn't help but bare its teeth and growl at the staff behind it. Such ferocious beasts must be caged when traveling to prevent them from easily harming other passengers, so Golden Light had to endure this journey.

  However, the place they have arrived at is now one of the thirty-six vassal cities under the Kettle Bullhead Clan, 'Rhino City', which belongs to the territory governed by 'Bulu' Rhinoceros people. It is still a great distance from the iron ore area that produces divine iron, so Ye Han has to go there himself.

  Looking at the people coming and going around me, with horns on their foreheads, some have black skin, some have white skin, and some have grayish skin, but they are extremely tall and strong, even stronger than the 'Kaiter' tribe. These are the three types of 'Bulu' rhinoceros people: 'Black Rhinoceros People', 'White Rhinoceros People', and 'Gray Rhinoceros People'. Among them, the black rhinoceros people have a violent temper, they fight at the slightest provocation, the white rhinoceros people are relatively gentle, while the gray rhinoceros people combine the characteristics of both.

  However, whether it's the Rhinoceros tribe, their arms, elbows, knees, and shoulders are all covered with hard armor, which is their innate defensive weapon, extremely hard. Every single member of the Rhinoceros tribe is a born great warrior, even stronger than most of the 'Kaitel' Minotaur people from their main tribe, they are a born fighting race, once they explode, on the battlefield like a mad devil. If it weren't for the fact that there were too few members of the Rhinoceros tribe, this would really be uncertain compared to one of the eight great warrior races of the Mong Empire.

  But even so, the Rhinoceros tribe is still a vassal tribe that the Kettlehead Bull relies on, precisely because of its strong combat capabilities. To this day, many high-ranking Kettlehead Bulls have Rhinoceros guards, which is a very prestigious thing.

  Of course, the upper class also has a two-pronged attitude towards the rhinoceros people, using them while being on guard against them, and suppressing them severely.

  These have nothing to do with Ye Han now, after staying in "Rhino City" for a while, he asked others about the route and prepared to head towards the iron ore area of Shen Tie. However, the golden Qilin under his seat attracted many sideways glances, after all, such a king of the mountains is extremely rare and ferocious, let alone tamed, a hybrid Qilin is already terrifying.

  But everyone just took a look, and no one was foolish enough to provoke someone who could ride such a fierce beast in the mountains. Such a person must have extraordinary strength or an unusual background, and is not someone that ordinary people can afford to offend.

  Ye Han hurried along the road, and didn't care what others thought anymore. He rode the Golden Qilin out of 'Rhinoceros City' and sped up towards the direction of the Divine Iron's iron mine district.

  It wasn't until late in the afternoon, when the sun was about to set, that Ye Han finally arrived at the Shén Tiě Iron Mine.

  "It should be here!"

  Ye Han let out a sigh and gazed into the distant scenery.

  A massive mountain body was excavated with gullies, revealing large blocks of mountain rocks, surrounded by fragmented piles of stones like small hills. Rolling black smoke rose in the distance, showing another kind of desolate feeling.

  Faintly audible in the distance, from time to time, came the sound of rocks rolling down mountains, iron tools striking against rock with a loud "pa" sound, and the occasional murmur of human voices and curses.

  Ye Han continued walking forward and soon rounded a blocking cliff, arriving at the front of the iron ore area.

  "Hurry up and get to work, don't be lazy..."

  "I'm so hungry I could die, no dinner tonight."

  "Let you run again, let you run again, see if I won't beat you to death..."

  ……

  Immediately afterwards, amidst the curses and shouts, the sound of whips lashing through the air and fiercely striking human bodies could be heard, producing a series of loud cracking sounds.

  Ye Han was taken aback, seeing the scene in the distance, and his eyebrows furrowed involuntarily. He saw a sturdy, thick-skinned gray rhino man in the distance, holding a whip and fiercely lashing down. Under the whip was a frail Wolfling youth.

  The young man's back was covered in tattered clothes, flesh and blood bursting open, with each lash of the whip he let out a muffled groan, but still tightly hugged a smaller, weaker figure beneath him, seemingly a frail girl. The young man was clearly on the verge of collapse, one more strike would be fatal.

  Ye Han's eyebrows furrowed and his body flashed, reappearing in front of the gray rhinoceros man.

  Crack! A crisp sound, the whip lashed out a clear and sharp force in the air, and then came down again with great force, but the rhinoceros man holding the handle felt his strength suddenly blocked, as if one end of the whip was being held by something, and he could no longer pull it back.

  He suddenly raised his head, only to find that at some point, a calm face had appeared in front of him, with one end of the whip held in his hand. He immediately became enraged. These rhino people had been bullying others in the iron mine area for so long that they had lost their usual vigilance and didn't think about whether the person who grabbed the whip was someone they could afford to provoke. With a swift motion, he lashed out with the whip at the young man's face.

  "You low-born thing, don't you know your place? How dare you block Grandfather Kabo?"

  The rhino man suddenly became furious, and without caring, he pulled back his whip and swung it towards Ye Han's face. As he whipped him, he cursed at the same time. Because of Ye Han's appearance, one could tell at a glance that he was a hybrid of human and bull-headed person. People like this were generally products of war, outcasts among their own kind, with low status in various tribes, and objects of ridicule by their own people.

  "Huh?!"

  Ye Han's eyes flashed with a hint of cold light, and he gave him a chilly glance.

  The rhino man only felt that being seen by that gaze, his entire heart was like being fiercely pinched, and he felt a sense of terror, as if a basin of cold water had been poured from head to toe on a cold winter's day. Then his chest was like something had struck it violently, his chest hurt, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, letting out a miserable cry, the whole person directly flew out, falling seven or eight meters away, trembling with fear as he looked at Ye Han, before fainting dead away.

  "Looking for death!"

  "How dare you cause trouble here."

  "Living is so annoying..."

  This sudden movement was like stirring up a hornet's nest, and with a loud whooshing sound, more than a dozen Buru warriors riding giant gray rhinoceroses rushed over, their eyes gleaming with malice as they brandished heavy maces and wolf-toothed clubs, charging towards Ye Han.

  Just then, suddenly, a loud roar of 'Roar!' was heard from behind.

  It was like a tiger or lion, roaring with a terrifying beastly aura, the air shook and fluctuated, instantly causing the gray rhinoceroses under the dozen or so Bru warriors who were charging forward to become frightened and disorganized, several of them fell off without noticing and were trampled, their bones broken and tendons snapped, letting out miserable cries.

  This roar was naturally the masterpiece of Jinguang Bixi, who was originally the king of the mountain. Every day, he tore tigers and leopards to pieces, cultivating the momentum of the king of all beasts. On the battlefield, if he let out a single roar, even well-trained warhorses would be frightened into paralysis, urinating and defecating in fear. These gray rhinoceroses were much better than warhorses, but they too were startled into panic. It was only then that everyone discovered that behind the young man stood such a majestic creature with a body of golden fur, ferocious and awe-inspiring!

  But these rhino warriors were born violent, fierce and warlike. Stimulated by this, they abandoned their mounts and charged over with heavy weapons. In the distance, the strong and tall rhino warriors who maintained the iron ore area all rushed over.

  In the distance, three or four auras burst forth, one of which was particularly powerful. A rough voice came through.

  "Which idiot dares to cause trouble in our Rhinoceros Tribe's iron mine area!"

  A tall and sturdy middle-aged man of the Broun tribe, about two meters six or seven in height, walked with two slightly shorter Broun people, with an overwhelming momentum.

  More and more warriors of the Rhinoceros tribe who maintained the iron ore area came over with their weapons.

  Ye Han looked at this scene, his face unchanged, but his eyes gradually narrowed. He looked at the tall and sturdy middle-aged man in front of him, a Brukhin bull, and said in a deep voice.

  "You are the Rhinoceros Iron Mine's Tian Chang Batu Mu, I am Ye Han-Kaitel, an inspector dispatched by the Council of Elders to investigate the death of the former Inspector!"

  A piece of iron plaque was held in his hand.

  As soon as they heard his words, the faces of all the people around changed, Ye Han's momentum surged, and in an instant, he suppressed the momentum of the people around him.

  ……
