My Arms Can Turn into Blades

Chapter 535 - 38: God Erosion_2

"So bring him here and let me kill him!"

"Tsk..."

Xia Yue sighed once again, then twisted his neck: "As expected, relying solely on words doesn’t work, does it? It’s no surprise, your Authority Ability destined you to be closest to the gods, you’re the most influenced by it, after all, you’re the Gatekeeper... So I’ll have to take action to wake you up."

Chai Pool’s eyes had turned blood-red at some unknown point, and his expression was full of hostility, like a wild beast: "Xia Yue, within Kunlun, you’re no match for me."

"I know, Enlightened, the Source Canon is clear, the legendary Divine Beast guarding the gate, even if there’s no Spirit fluctuation on you, within Kunlun, you’re the strongest force, unreasonably strong."

Xia Yue stopped twisting his neck, nodded, then moved his right leg back and smiled: "However... this strength is only relative."

Swish——

As soon as the words fell.

Xia Yue instantly appeared in front of Chai Pool.

Chai Pool’s pupils suddenly shrank.

Because he couldn’t see clearly at all.

He didn’t even know... how Xia Yue appeared in front of him.

"Additionally."

The smile on Xia Yue’s face disappeared, he suddenly raised his right arm, aiming at Chai Pool’s face: "Do you know what I realized when I advanced to Zhan Kan? What was the thought rooted deep in my soul? It’s actually very cliché, that is — Guardian of the Human World!"

Chai Pool didn’t have time to reply at all.

Xia Yue suddenly punched.

In that instant.

The fist energy burst forth.

The entire Kunlun Mountain Range.

The earth shook and the mountains trembled!

...

At the same time.

Celestial Strategy Trading.

After Chen Lusi was suddenly summoned away.

At the front desk, only Si Yujie and Lin Ying were left.

And the two weren’t exactly familiar... let’s just say they’ve met twice.

Though in name, Lin Ying also belongs to the Third Squad and should be under Si Yujie’s jurisdiction.

But names are just names.

Due to the rarity of Mental Empowerers, it destined their high mobility, basically wherever needed, they would appear.

So between different squads, there’s an unspoken rule... that these kinds of Empowerers belong to the entire Celestial Strategy Mansion, not any single squad.

Under this unspoken rule.

The majority of the troop leaders in the Celestial Strategy Mansion find it hard to consider Mental Empowerers as their own, except for Wu You, a rumor says he can read minds, a Mental Empowerer who is not welcomed anywhere.

Add to the fact that these Empowerers often travel around and meet infrequently, the situation worsens.

As such, Si Yujie and Lin Ying have rarely met and really don’t have much to talk about.

With Chen Lusi, the mediator, gone, there’s even less to discuss.

The two gazed at each other silently for a long time.

After a while.

Si Yujie barely found a topic: "...Did you grow up with Chen Lusi?"

"Yes."

Lin Ying gently nodded.

Hearing this, Si Yujie became curious: "What was Chen Lusi like as a child?"

"Not much different from now, just has a cool vibe."

When Lin Ying spoke of Chen Lusi, a smile instantly appeared on her enchanting face, and she said with warmth: "But in reality, very shy. When I held his hand, he would blush."

Upon hearing this, Si Yujie instantly perked up: "...Really? How old was that?"

"Just turned ten or so."

Lin Ying blurted out, seemingly having those memories always in her mind, then tenderly said: "I was a timid child back then, only he was willing to protect me, so I clung to him dearly, but at first, he actually wanted to shake my hand off, because children our age would tease if they saw this, he also cared about his face.

But he only tried once, when he saw I was about to cry, he immediately gave up, and after that, no matter how many peers he encountered, he would hold my hand and walk with me, though still very shy.

Because of this, I remember till now when he returns home, those cousins would still tease him, but now he no longer minds."

"Oh..."

Si Yujie propped her cheek, listening to Lin Ying’s tale, elongated the tone, seemingly picturing the scene back then, and couldn’t help but smile.

Childhood sweethearts...

Quite interesting indeed.

But why did Chen Lusi turn out this way now?

Si Yujie couldn’t help but recall Chen Lusi’s current face, and she smiled gently again, intending to ask a few more things.

However.

As Si Yujie thought to ask about something else, trying to brush aside Chen Lusi’s face.

She realized.

Chen Lusi’s face wouldn’t go away.

His figure remained firmly fixed in her mind... and the face grew clearer and clearer.

In the end.

Chen Lusi’s figure was like a brand, imprinted in her mind.

At this very moment.

It coincided with the time when Chen Lusi successfully mimicked Hank Machado’s Authority Ability.

"..."

Si Yujie was slightly stunned.

Then, thinking of Chen Lusi’s face.

A surge of impulse suddenly rose from deep within her soul.

...Kill him!

...Kill Chen Lusi!

This heretic!

"...Why?"

Si Yujie slowly let go of her hand that propped her cheek and suddenly furrowed her brows, subconsciously denying: "Why kill him!? On what grounds to kill him!?"

"..."

On the other side, Lin Ying, who stood prettily, heard this, and the gentle expression from reminiscing instantly vanished from her enchanting face: "What are you talking about?"

Hearing Lin Ying’s voice, Si Yujie suddenly came to her senses.

The strong impulse from within her rapidly subsided.

She slowly lifted her head, furrowing her brows, softly replied: "Nothing... Just suddenly, out of nowhere, a thought came from deep inside that told me to kill Chen Lusi, and it didn’t feel like an outside influence, but more like a soul-deep tremor, very strange.

Maybe something’s wrong, I now..."
