My Arms Can Turn into Blades-Chapter 339 - 214: Change Quickly_3

Very soon.

His figure began to shrink, becoming a lot shorter, roughly reverting to the state when he had just graduated from junior high and entered high school, about fifteen or sixteen years old.

This was also Xia Panqiu's first time seeing someone other than herself compress their body.

Witnessing Chen Lusi, who was tall and sturdy, become even shorter than herself.

Xia Panqiu finally understood why he couldn't recognize her.

"Pfft—"

Xia Panqiu looked at the rejuvenated Chen Lusi and couldn't help but laugh.

Chen Lusi was about to speak.

Xia Panqiu moved first, stepping forward and giving Chen Lusi a bear hug.

"..."

When Chen Lusi felt the pressure on his face, he was utterly dumbfounded.

...

At the same time.

Across the same city, compared to the somewhat relaxed atmosphere on Chen Lusi's side.

In the Jinling Celestial Strategy Mansion Branch meeting room, the atmosphere was somewhat heavy.

Luo Mountain, Tang Language, Mount Tai, Li Zheng, along with Ji Xin who had just left the hospital, gathered together, yet no one spoke; all were deep in thought.

"Where did Yu Zhou go?"

About five minutes later, Tang Language found it hard to stay seated, took the initiative to speak up, and asked.

"I sent him over to Chen Lusi's side."

Ji Xin calmly replied, "After all, half of Jinling is with him, so emotionally and logically, someone needs to keep watch."

Tang Language made a sound of acknowledgment, then didn't know what to say next.

"Luo Mountain."

Fortunately.

Because of her question, Mount Tai also came back to his senses, looked at Luo Mountain, Kunlun's person in charge, and asked, "How's the situation on your end? Is there any similar record?"

"No."

Luo Mountain shook his head, "I've had people look through all the existing records on 'phenomena', but none mentioned any 'phenomena' causing the Yellow Springs Mainstream to lose city control."

Mount Tai felt a bit heavy, "So... there is no solution either?"

"No."

Luo Mountain hesitated for a moment, "We're unclear about the specific principle behind this, let alone resolve it."

Mount Tai's heart sank to the bottom, "Then who do you think caused this situation? Chen Lusi or that unknown Self upper-level?"

"Not sure."

Luo Mountain thought for a while, then continued, "But I'm more inclined toward the Self, because Chen Lusi really doesn't seem like the type to do such a thing, and not long ago Ji Xin confirmed he also wanted to solve this issue.

As for that unknown Self upper-level... Listening to Chen Lusi and Captain Li Zheng's descriptions, we can basically confirm they are a National Sacrificial System Empowerer, and Empowerers with such authority are very few from ancient times to the present.

The Feudal Dynasty protects such Empowerers well; I don't even know specifically what could be done by authority owners like this, coupled with the Self always striving to break free from the restrictions of Yellow Springs..."

Mount Tai understood, and slowly nodded. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

Actually, afterward, he thought carefully and also felt it was unlikely to be Chen Lusi.

Because there's simply no need for him to do so.

If he truly had such ambition, he wouldn't be cooperating with both the Celestial Strategy Mansion and the Security Army to create the Celestial Punishment Weapon.

"Tang Language, how are the results on your side?"

Mount Tai looked at Tang Language and asked, "Have you found the target?"

"No."

Tang Language replied helplessly, "This is a big city with nearly ten million residents; if the other party hides, Yu Zhou and I alone can hardly find them, let alone you tasked us to follow Chen Lusi afterward..."

"Captain Li Zheng."

Upon hearing this, Mount Tai directly turned to look at Li Zheng.

Li Zheng plainly said, "I'll later cooperate with the Simulation Portrait Artist to draft the facial contours of that horse-faced man, and afterward, I'll also work with the Celestial Strategy Mansion to search for this person."

"..."

Mount Tai nodded again.

Everything that could be done has been done; there's only one thing left...

Thinking about this.

Mount Tai looked at Ji Xin.

Ji Xin's complexion was still somewhat pale, but after noticing Mount Tai's gaze, he calmly said, "After the Demon Slayer, I found nothing unusual, I have no clues, and I don't know how to recover half of Jinling."

"..."

Upon hearing this, everyone fell into silence.

Currently, other issues, aren't urgent.

There's only one thing that's very urgent.

That is... the cat beside Chen Lusi, or more precisely, half of Jinling.

But the problem is, other matters have solutions; whether or not they work, at least they can do something.

But the cat beside Chen Lusi, they have no clues, and don't know how to proceed.

And it's precisely the most important.

It's... very frustrating.

Nobody spoke in the meeting room, and the atmosphere became tense again.

At this time.

Crunch—

The meeting room door was suddenly pushed open.

Everyone looked towards the entrance, and after seeing who entered, they were all stunned.

"Why such expressions... Did someone die?"

Xia Yue pushed open the door, looked at the gloomy faces of everyone, and asked.

"Xia Yue!?"

Hearing Xia Yue's voice.

Both Mount Tai and Li Zheng stood up directly.

"Long time no see."

Xia Yue closed the door again, greeted everyone, and pulled a chair beside the conference table to sit down.

Mount Tai looked at Xia Yue and asked in surprise, "When did you return!?"

"Five hours ago."

Xia Yue replied, then glanced around at the others, finally focusing on Mount Tai, "I just heard from Xiaoxiao when I came back that something happened in Jinling and was kicked out by her, so what's going on in Jinling?"

Mount Tai was silent for a moment, then softly said, "Chen Lusi..."

Xia Yue shook his head and interrupted, "I've already heard about Chen Lusi's issues."

Upon hearing this, Mount Tai visibly brightened, "You know half of Jinling is now in Chen Lusi's hands!? Do you have a solution!?"

Xia Yue, upon hearing this, was slightly stunned, then slowly posed a question mark, "...?"

What?
