My Arms Can Turn into Blades

Chapter 538 - 39: Stay Where You Are_2

Ji Xin ignored Tang Language, instead calmly saying: "All these people know Chen Lusi, and have excellent relationships... Similarly, among those who know Chen Lusi and have good relations but haven’t acted, Wu You’s Authority Ability ’Heart’s Reflection’, the Source Canon is the Female Fox from the novel of brush conversations. My Authority Ability ’Female Youth’, while belonging to Daoism, originated from a work satirizing the National Sacrificial Pantheon, comparing the Supreme God Haotian Emperor at its birth to the ’High Heaven Ten Thousand Ghost’, inherently rebellious in nature. As for you, Tang Language, your Authority Ability comes from bloodline.

There’s basically no common ground. If there has to be a common point, it’s that those who harbor murderous intent have Authority Abilities related to orthodox Mythical Systems.

And those without murderous intent... their Authority Abilities have no connection to orthodox Mythical Systems."

"...No way?"

Tang Language heard Ji Xin’s words, rigidly turning her head in shock, staring dumbfounded at Chen Lusi.

Chen Lusi’s Authority Ability has always been a mystery... and apparently very sensitive, neither Ji Xin nor Xia Yue has figured it out... but no one told her it would be so sensitive!

This time it’s not an ordinary enemy!

"Do you mean the Yellow Springs Mainstream is controlling Xia Panqiu and the others?"

Upon hearing Ji Xin’s words, Chen Lusi pondered for a moment, then instinctively asked, but then denied, "No... it can’t be the Yellow Springs Mainstream, if it were, I guess everyone would have murderous intent, so... is it Bi Luo?"

"Possible... after all, the ones wanting to harm you all have Authority Abilities that belong to Mythical Systems or Ancient Systems."

On the other end of the phone, Ji Xin fell silent for a moment before replying: "I contacted Xia Yue earlier, he was in Kunlun, but just as I tried to contact him again, I couldn’t reach him, indicating something might have happened."

At this point.

She paused, shifting the topic: "I’ll handle things over there. First, tell me, did you do anything just now?"

"No."

Chen Lusi carefully recalled and replied, "Didn’t do anything, the battle style hasn’t changed. If anything... I just mimicked the Authority Abilities of two Church Empowerers."

"Church Empowerers’ Authority Abilities?"

Ji Xin softly repeated, then abruptly asked: "Illusion Soul... your Illusion Soul that can mimic others’ Authority Abilities, does it have a price? I mean the cost on you personally, and is your cat still with you?"

"The cost... there’s no cost, at least from my perception, as for the cat."

Chen Lusi glanced at his feet: "Since the ’God Summoning Talisman’ summoned me, I haven’t seen it, it should be by Lin Ying."

"Understood... that suggests this powerful Authority Ability comes with a price."

Ji Xin hesitated, speaking softly: "It’s just that this price isn’t paid by you, or maybe you’ve never realized you’ve been paying a price, and perhaps something reached a critical point when you mimicked the Church Empowerers’ Authority Abilities just now.

Of course, I’m not by your side, so I can’t be certain... I’m on my way, stay put, and don’t trust anyone, not even Xia Panqiu, Tang Language, don’t let them behind you.

Also, most importantly... from now on, refrain from using your Authority Abilities, especially ’Illusion Soul’, best not to use any Techniques either, leave the rest to Li Zheng and Tang Language."

"..."

Chen Lusi surveyed the crowd around him: "The Roman Catholic Church’s issue isn’t resolved, Hank Machado and Igri Saba might come back."

"I know, I’m on my way to relieve you."

Ji Xin replied calmly: "Currently you’re unfit to act, as I’m still unclear on what’s happening, we have to determine if using your Authority Abilities again would worsen the situation, so just stay put.

After all, if things get worse, you might have to face familiar friends with weapons, and that’s not the worst of it, the worst is... domestically, not only Celestial Strategy Mansion and Kunlun have Empowerers, but the oldest batch still alive has Authority Abilities mostly belonging to Mythical or Ancient Systems.

I asked around just now, even among those Celestial Strategy members unfamiliar with you, though they possess Mythical or Ancient System Authority Abilities, they bear no inexplicable murderous intent towards you, so it can be roughly confirmed, currently this stands limited to those who’ve seen and known you.

But if it escalates... it might make the majority of domestic Empowerers view you as an enemy, so please stay put, let others handle the rest."

"...Understood."

Chen Lusi was silent for a while before nodding agreement.

Then.

Ji Xin gave a few more instructions before hanging up.

Chen Lusi put down the phone, then looked at the others present.

"..."

Everyone was still digesting the unexpected news, uncertain and suspicious.

The abrupt immobilization of the strongest force present was secondary.

The most difficult to accept and understand was Ji Xin’s final words—if the situation worsens... Chen Lusi would be regarded as an enemy by most Empowerers domestically!

What a joke!!

What exactly happened? How did it suddenly turn into this?

"..."

In the dead silence.

Xia Panqiu looked at Chen Lusi, suddenly whispering: "I’m sorry."

Chen Lusi shook his head at her: "It’s not your fault."

Then.

He looked towards Li Zheng, whose brow was furrowed, and Shu Li, who seemed a bit down, and said: "It’s not your fault either... But, Li Zheng, the situation has changed, although I still don’t know what’s happening, it’s clear I can’t act, so you can’t stay here."

"I understand."

Li Zheng took a deep breath, composed himself swiftly: "I’ll begin moving everyone to different cities, to prevent their return, but won’t you be okay alone?"

Chen Lusi shook his head: "I’ll be fine, I’m not truly unable to use my Authority Abilities."

"Alright."

Li Zheng nodded, then left with everyone, including Shu Li and Xia Panqiu.

Lu City’s local Empowerers stayed, considering the fewer people who know about the Talisman matter the better, so they didn’t opt for instant transfer using Shrinking Earth Talisman.

Moreover, they left Wu You behind.

"Tang Language."

Chen Lusi looked at Tang Language, his intent obvious.

What are you still doing here?

Tang Language looked at Chen Lusi, uncertainly: "Are you sure you’re okay?"

Chen Lusi shook his head.

"Alright then, Wu You stays."

Tang Language left behind these words, then transformed into a fox, disappearing from sight.

The premise of being able to chat leisurely on the beach earlier was that the Security Army members patrolling the coastlines of the coastal cities could summon Chen Lusi using a "God Summoning Talisman."

Others would just need to follow using Shrinking Earth Talisman.

After all, Chen Lusi had already fought once... the threat was minimal.

But now that Chen Lusi couldn’t act, it’s a different matter.

After all, the core of the mobile unit is Chen Lusi, not Tang Language.

And Tang Language previously... was indeed a bit embarrassed.

If Hank Machado and Igri Saba return, without Chen Lusi, it would certainly not be as easy.

After all, previously, it could be said Chen Lusi was fighting two, or more accurately, many...

Soon.

The originally lively Chuituo Beach was only left with Lu City’s local Empowerers and Wu You.

The former needed to handle the captives, the latter... the latter was a token of goodwill as a teammate.

"Lu Si..."

Wu You looked at Chen Lusi, this time not wrapping an arm around his neck but taking a few steps back instead, then sighed: "I better keep my distance, though even if I go crazy, I can’t take you on, but better safe than sorry..."

Chen Lusi: "..."

...

Meanwhile.

As this unexpected event unfolded around Chen Lusi.

Hank Machado and Igri Saba themselves were rapidly moving over the sea!
