My Arms Can Turn into Blades-Chapter 263 - 189: This Is What You Meant by Some People Coming to Observe?

"You haven't advanced yet?"

On the same day.

Celestial Strategy Trading, inside the gourd.

Zhou Jian put down his phone helplessly, then looked at Chen Lusi and asked.

Chen Lusi nodded.

"…"

Zhou Jian hesitated for a moment and spoke softly, "Then perhaps... let's go to the Celestial Strategy Mansion Headquarters first, Luo Mountain is a bit urgent, our leader is almost driven crazy by the urging these days."

Chen Lusi wasn't surprised that Luo Mountain would be informed about this.

After all, the weapons need to be made by Kunlun. While keeping it secret from ordinary members is understandable, hiding it from Kunlun's upper echelon is obviously inappropriate.

But.

Looking at Zhou Jian, Chen Lusi asked, "What do you mean by 'driven crazy'?"

"Just as it sounds."

Zhou Jian sighed at the words, "Kunlun over there has shown an extremely strong interest in you, even to the point of being fervent. As for the reason... I guess it might be because the 'Tip' weapon you control not only represents an innovation in weaponry but also signifies that Kunlun can finally lift a corner of the old era and glimpse the visage of our ancestors."

"...Glimpse the visage of our ancestors?"

"Do you remember what Wu You told you a few days ago? The Talisman era has broken off, the Celestial Masters have also broken off, but in fact, many things have broken off domestically, not just these."

Zhou Jian explained, "To put it this way, the current system used by the Celestial Strategy Mansion is just using names borrowed from ancient texts; most other things have nothing to do with our ancestors. How those Empowerers of the old era cultivated and used techniques is still a mystery.

Even the techniques they left behind... are mostly black boxes; we only know how to use them.

And among them is the compression device on the 'Tip' weapon, which can compress spirits, making them appear bullet-shaped to shoot out and cause damage. Do you think we came up with this ourselves?"

Chen Lusi frowned and asked, "Isn't it?"

"It's not... as Wu You explained before, the compression device is a standard 'black box artificial antique,' with three branches: domestic branch, Church branch, and Sumer branch."

"Before we discovered the domestic compression device, the Church had successfully applied it to modern weapons... we learned from them, parrot-like, inserting the device into modern weapons using the compression devices left by our ancestors."

Zhou Jian shook his head: "So, this isn't the way our ancestors used the compression device, everyone is well aware of it, after all, where were guns in the old era?

Even the Church may just be using the compression devices passed down by their forebears through modern thinking, considering there's no modern weaponry in the old era."

Saying this.

Zhou Jian paused, then looked at Chen Lusi's face and continued, "However, your last strike at Ussuri Shallow completely went beyond the realm of 'modern weapons shooting bullets,' and beyond the current imagination of how to use the compression device. It didn't seem like a method guessed and transformed by modern people; rather, it seemed more like... this is how our ancestors might have used it!

Now you understand why Luo Mountain is so excited, right? Because, in that strike of yours, he saw the possibility of glimpsing the past, for this, he can even temporarily ignore the fact that you can control external spirits, because, compared with that, glimpsing the past is more important."

"…"

Chen Lusi nodded, understanding.

After hesitating for a moment, he replied, "Then we'll leave tomorrow, I need to go back to handle some things."

"Alright."

Zhou Jian heard this and smiled, "Then we'll leave tomorrow... besides, when the time comes, some high-level officials from the Security Army might also go to the scene to observe, but they won't offer any opinions, they just want to witness the power firsthand. I'm letting you know in advance, so you won't be too nervous then."

Chen Lusi: "…"

You might as well not say anything.

"Actually, this is a good thing."

On the other side.

Wu You, who hadn't spoken all along, glanced at Chen Lusi's demeanor, seemed to know what he was thinking, suddenly leaned closer and hooked his neck, then mysteriously said, "Lu Si, you need to know, no matter how awesome the Celestial Strategy Mansion is, it's just a department, but the Security Army is not just the Celestial Strategy Mansion's security, there's no harm in showing your face a little."

Zhou Jian heard this and smiled without saying a word.

And Chen Lusi didn't respond to Wu You.

Because he felt like it was not yet his time to consider these.

What he currently thinks about is still the two sisters.

Truth be told.

For some reason, as time passes, his previous thought about moving out has faded more and more.

More instead is... not wanting to leave the two sisters, and there's a tendency for it to intensify.

Of course, it's just a thought at the moment.

Chen Lusi can still suppress such feelings.

Thinking of this.

He couldn't help but turn back, looking in the direction of Qinyuan and Mansion in his cognition.

But being inside the gourd.

Of course, he couldn't see the outside.

Chen Lusi only saw Xia Panqiu standing beside Shu Li.

And Xia Panqiu also noticed his gaze, and after meeting his eyes, she gently tugged at Shu Li's pigtails.

"…"

Chen Lusi looked at Xia Panqiu, his expression slightly strange.

After that day.

He did help; in the elevator, he fed Xia Panqiu a Spirit Ball... during which Xia Panqiu kept pushing her little head against his hand, seemingly wanting him to pull her hair.

Afterward, she took leave.

And when she came back today, she had already completed her advancement.

Currently, she can also float in the air by stepping on the spirit, because of the Cloud Ascension Authority, she does it even better than Shu Li.
