My Arms Can Turn into Blades-Chapter 367 - 225: Show of Force

Ivan.

This name carries many meanings, such as ’hospitable person’, ’kind-hearted person’, ’wise person’, and ’the terrifying tsar’.

But the original meaning of this name is a gift from God.

And the young man beside him truly deserves this name.

After all, whether in ability or talent, he is exceptional.

Regarding this point.

Another elderly man named Yevgeny was well aware.

But as someone who has lived for nearly seventy years, young people like Ivan... he has seen many.

Each of them was gifted, proud, and strong.

But in the end, only a handful survived.

Sometimes being too proud and too talented is not a good thing.

"Don’t get too complacent."

Yevgeny thought of this and couldn’t help but say, "Even a gift from God cannot reach everywhere, haven’t you met Xia Yue?"

"He is the Ivan here, and he is the only one who can be compared to me. The only difference between me and him is age."

Ivan was silent for a moment, then replied, "Rest assured, Yevgeny, I am not dismissing it. I know very well what I am doing."

"I hope so."

Yevgeny glanced at Ivan’s profile. Although he knew his mindset hadn’t fully changed, he said nothing more, only adding, "Don’t disappoint the Bishop, and don’t let the Pope down."

Upon hearing this, Ivan was a little surprised, "The Pope? What does this have to do with the Pope?"

"I guessed based on the Bishop’s attitude... I estimate this matter is known to him, and he values it a lot."

"Impossible, the Shepherd Leader has been bedridden for years. Would he still pay attention to such things?"

"Regardless of whether it’s true or not, we need to be prepared. You don’t want to be rebuked by the Pope, do you?"

"...Understood."

Ivan was silent for a moment, nodded, then turned to look at the lake rippling gently in the distance, curling his lips almost imperceptibly.

They really dare to say anything.

...Even bringing the Pope into this.

Would the Pope rise for a Sikopuqi Sect’s cold fish and a puppet? Nonsense.

Being cautious is wise.

But this is too exaggerated.

I just said there are no peers who can compare with me, was it necessary to make it such a fuss?

Moreover, wasn’t I stating a fact?

Chen Lusi...

Fine, I’ll see what’s so special about him.

Perhaps he was provoked.

Initially, Ivan was still calm. Even if he said Chen Lusi was a puppet, or that the words of the Sikopuqi Sect were unreliable, he was merely stating what he believed to be true.

But now, after Yevgeny spoke, he genuinely wanted to give Chen Lusi a warning tomorrow.

Not for anything else.

Just to prove he was right!

...

At the same time.

Chen Lusi had no idea he was on so many people’s minds.

He was looking up at the ceiling, considering whether to change his hairstyle.

Because the two sisters seemed to really regard him as one of them.

Of course, besides cutting hair, there was a simpler solution...

"Chen Lusi, what are you thinking about?"

Lin Wan wrapped an arm around Chen Lusi’s waist, suddenly tiptoeing, reaching out her fair little hand to wave gently.

Chen Lusi came back to his senses, looking at the tender face behind the little hand, devoid of any aggression, and shook his head slightly to dispel the unnecessary thoughts. He replied, "Nothing, let go of me, your sister is in the bathroom, if you want a hug, go there. I’ll cut my hair tomorrow."

"Don’t."

Upon hearing this, Lin Wan immediately became anxious.

Just as Chen Lusi was about to speak further, his phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated.

He could only pause, pressing down on Lin Wan’s little head, forcefully extracting himself from her embrace, then sat on the bed and checked his phone.

... A message from Ji Xin, asking him to visit the Jinling Celestial Strategy Mansion Branch around nine the next morning.

[The Chamomile Alliance is most likely coming for the Celestial Punishment Weapon. If you’re unsure of what to say, then don’t say anything. Just stand there, and I’ll handle the rest.]

Staring at Ji Xin’s message, Chen Lusi frowned slightly, feeling a bit strange.

To say nothing at all.

Then why am I going? To stand around? And hope this will intimidate the Chamomile Alliance? But is that possible?

Thinking of this.

Chen Lusi hesitated for a moment and responded, "Then what am I going to do? What’s the point?"

Ji Xin replied with a cryptic message, "If the other side can see something, then it’s worth it."

Just as Chen Lusi finished reading.

A new notification popped up.

Xia Yue also sent a message.

[Come to the Jinling Celestial Strategy Mansion Branch tomorrow. I’ll introduce you to someone, the Celestial Master of Dragon Tiger Mountain, and bring your cat along too.]

Chen Lusi: "..."

On the other side.

Lin Wan noticed Chen Lusi looking at his phone, seemingly deep in thought, so she dared not disturb him further. She just came to the bed, climbed on it quietly, and went around Chen Lusi to his back.

[Aren’t the Chamomile Alliance people coming tomorrow?]

Chen Lusi felt his ponytail being gently tugged.

But because the movement was so light, he didn’t pay much attention, instead replying to Xia Yue.

And soon, Xia Yue’s reply came: [I’m aware of this; let’s meet together then, although Zhang Xiufeng isn’t a true Celestial Master, he’s knowledgeable, just in case.]

[...Alright.]

Chen Lusi thought about it, replied "okay" to both, then put down his phone, raising his right hand to look at his palm.

Tomorrow...

Besides the Chamomile Alliance mission.

Would the Celestial Master of Dragon Tiger Mountain see anything in me?
