As for Copet’s subordinates, they all had expressions of smugness and bloodlust.
But just at this moment, Copet suddenly felt that his indomitable punch had been forcibly halted by a tremendous force.
Just as he was feeling infinite amazement, he saw Xue An with one hand behind his back, casually gripping his mechanical left hand with the other.
Then, with interest, Xue An examined Copet, "Interesting! You managed to unleash a blow at least at the Golden Immortal Peak solely through mechanical power!"
Copet instantly regained his composure, then a mad expression appeared on his face. His mechanical heart started beating wildly as if it was exploding, channeling its immense energy into the left fist gripped by Xue An.
There came a crisp crackling sound from the left hand, accompanied by flashes of electricity. Clearly, the power was too great, reaching a point of collapse.
Yet, this made the power of the left hand ascend yet again, frantically shaking, trying to free itself from Xue An’s grasp.
Unfortunately, all was in vain.
Though Xue An held it casually, his hand felt as if it were made of steel, with Copet unable to budge it in the slightest.
This couldn’t help but fill Copet’s eyes with horror and fear.
He was confident that this strike could crush a high-level alchemist, so why hadn’t he even swayed a single hair of this young man?
At this moment, the corners of Xue An’s mouth lifted into a cold smile, "What a shame, Mr. Copet, it seems you don’t wish to cooperate nicely! Then I have no choice but to..."
With that, Xue An suddenly tightened his grip.
Bang!
Copet’s hand burst like paper, directly crushed by Xue An as sparks flew off, causing Copet to let out an earth-shattering scream.
But it wasn’t over yet, Xue An kicked Copet to the ground, stomped on his chest, and swiftly pulled upward with his hand.
Crack!
Accompanied by a teeth-gritting sound of metal scraping and breaking, followed by a muffled thump.
Copet’s arm was forcibly torn off by Xue An.
Sparks flew as exposed wires dripped grease like blood vessels.
Due to the severe pain, Copet flailed on the ground like a dead fish.
Meanwhile, Xue An weighed the still slightly trembling mechanical arm in his hand, revealing a charming smile.
"Mr. Copet, I think we can have a proper talk now, can’t we?"
The entire scene was dead silent, so quiet that one could hear many people secretly swallowing.
Copet displayed infinite fear.
Never had he seen such a maniac like Xue An.
If he’d been defeated by Alchemical Secret Arts, Copet could accept that.
But from start to finish, Copet hadn’t detected the slightest mechanical oscillation from Xue An.
Which left only one explanation.
This Andrew had solely relied on physical strength to overpower and forcibly rip off his mechanical arm.
But was that really possible?
Copet had never heard of anyone being able to fight against machinery with pure bodily strength.
But the facts were right before him, leaving him no choice but to believe.
Therefore, at this moment, fear filled his gaze as he looked at Xue An.
He even suspected that within this young man’s thin body lay a being akin to a Mechanical Tyrannosaurus.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t be so fierce!
Thus, without hesitation, he nodded and stammered, "Of... of course!"
Saying this, he turned to his subordinates, still stuck in a stupor of shock, and shouted, "What are you standing around for? Hurry and get Mr. Andrew’s item back!"
These subordinates awakened as if from a dream, "Yes!"
Then they scrambled to open the safe in the room and placed a small box tremulously on the table.
Xue An glanced over, inside the box was an exquisitely crafted gear emitting a pale purple sheen.
"Mr. Copet, had you cooperated from the start, you wouldn’t have suffered this pain, am I right?"
