My Arms Can Turn into Blades-Chapter 148 - 137: Verbal Control

Lin Ying pulled Chen Lusi out of the elevator, without feeling anything was amiss.

Chen Lusi, however, noticed and looked down at their hands.

"..."

Lin Ying turned her head, lightly squeezed his hand: "Feels no different from holding my own other hand, just a bit bigger, a bit rougher... right?"

With that said.

She lifted her snow-white chin, looking at Chen Lusi again.

Chen Lusi opened his mouth, but didn’t get a chance to speak.

Lin Ying reminded: "You better hold my hand before you share your thoughts."

"..."

Chen Lusi was silent for a moment, curved his fingers, and gently held Lin Ying’s soft little hand: "Not quite the same, your hand is very small."

"I know."

Lin Ying smiled like a blooming flower, gradually slowed her pace, and walked side by side with Chen Lusi.

As for the hand, she never let go.

"..."

Chen Lusi turned his head to look at Lin Ying, who was dressed in a light, ethereal white dress, gentle and charming.

"Hmm?" Lin Ying noticed his gaze, turned her head, and tightened her grip on his hand again.

"Nothing."

Chen Lusi averted his gaze... let’s talk about it when she feels hot.

Without air conditioning, it was almost June, and it was actually quite sultry outside.

The two walked out of the neighborhood together.

Chen Lusi identified the direction, then was about to continue forward.

But Lin Ying held his hand, didn’t move, and suddenly turned her head to look at the position of Celestial Strategy Trading.

"What’s wrong..."

Chen Lusi followed her gaze, wanting to turn around.

"Entranced."

Lin Ying suddenly turned her head to meet his gaze, her beautiful eyes turned golden, and uttered a word.

Chen Lusi’s actions paused, seemingly a bit entranced.

Lin Ying then turned her head again, looking at the two people coming this way.

Shu Li was pulling Xia Panqiu, walking quickly towards them.

By now, both had already seen Chen Lusi and Lin Ying.

Shu Li’s entire attention was on Chen Lusi, evidently recognizing him, with a bit of excitement on her face.

Completely oblivious to Lin Ying’s appearance.

As for Xia Panqiu, she did notice Lin Ying in her white dress.

She not only noticed Lin Ying... but also saw that they were holding hands, seemingly about to go out.

"..."

Xia Panqiu’s movements paused, suddenly not wanting to go forward.

But Shu Li was entirely focused on Chen Lusi, not noticing her temporary partner’s hesitation, directly dragging her in front of Lin Ying.

Then, Shu Li raised her head, looking at Chen Lusi.

"Chen..."

She had just uttered a word.

"Return the way you came!"

Lin Ying directly interrupted her, golden eyes looking at the two petite girls in front, releasing Chen Lusi’s hand and pointing to Celestial Strategy Trading: "Don’t cause trouble."

Her words had just fallen.

Shu Li and Xia Panqiu’s expressions immediately turned dazed.

Subsequently.

The two turned around dazedly, directly heading back to Celestial Strategy Trading.

Surprisingly, they really did return the way they came.

Lin Ying watched the two leave, breathed a sigh of relief, the golden color in her eyes gradually dissipating.

Then, she took a few steps forward gracefully, standing prettily in front of Chen Lusi.

"What’s wrong?"

Chen Lusi came back to his senses, looking at Lin Ying standing in front of him, frowning slightly, feeling something was off but couldn’t pinpoint what.

Lin Ying slightly raised her head: "Can you check if my dress is messy?"

[Unknown System, Derived Authority - Verbal Control.]

"No."

Chen Lusi glanced down at Lin Ying, as the breeze blew, her dress slightly lifted, gentle and charming.

"Then it’s fine."

Lin Ying smiled, glanced at the departing Shu Li and Xia Panqiu, and returned to Chen Lusi’s side.

Chen Lusi found it a bit odd, yet in the end didn’t ask further, but led her directly in another direction.

From start to finish.

He never saw Shu Li and Xia Panqiu.

Lin Ying walked side by side with Chen Lusi, glanced at the side of his face, then slowly shifted her gaze downward to his hand.

"...Would sweat on your hand feel disgusting?"

Suddenly.

Lin Ying quietly asked.

"No."

Chen Lusi casually responded: "After all, everyone has it."

Lin Ying curiously asked: "Really?"

"Hmm."

"Even like this, it wouldn’t be?"

"...You don’t have sweaty palms."

"If you hold tighter, perhaps there will be."

"..."

...

At the same time.

Shu Li and Xia Panqiu walked back to Celestial Strategy Trading in a daze.

Si Yujie had just watched them leave, hadn’t had a chance to instruct Shu Li’s team members, and saw the two coming back, slightly stunned.

And very quickly.

She noticed the anomaly in them, frowned, and raised her hand.

But as soon as Shu Li and Xia Panqiu stepped into Celestial Strategy Trading, the dazed expressions on their faces vanished, suddenly waking up.

"..."

Shu Li looked around, glanced at Si Yujie who had raised her hand, and then at her own team members, her face changed dramatically: "Damn! A Spiritual Authority Ability User! And very strong!"

Xia Panqiu: "..."

"A Spiritual Authority Ability User? You didn’t find Chen Lusi?"

Si Yujie put down her hand, looking at Shu Li, frowning and asking: "Did you meet an enemy? Or encountered something?"

"She probably isn’t an enemy; she’s standing right next to Chen Lusi, holding his hand, and she’s a very beautiful woman."

Shu Li’s expression turned grim: "But she’s really strong. As soon as she said a word, I lost connection."

On the other side.

Xia Panqiu was silent for a moment, then added: "It’s Lin Ying."

"Lin Ying..."

Si Yujie heard that name and immediately conjured an image in her mind of a figure who was maturing, yet still retained a youthful aura, and she slightly furrowed her brows: "Why would she take action against you?"

She wasn’t very familiar with Lin Ying.

Because Lin Ying wasn’t directly involved in combat, instead possessing Spiritual Authority to alter memories, a ’special’ type of personnel.

Such people seldom stay in one place for long.

As wherever legendary activation occurs, they need to control the situation.

For example, last time during the kidnapping event, it was people like Lin Ying who were responsible for cleaning up and erasing the memories of the masses.

Wu You being able to stay at headquarters for long was a luxury in itself.

Lin Ying, of course, couldn’t stay at headquarters for long.

Therefore, Si Yujie and Lin Ying barely had any interaction.

"I don’t know either."

Shu Li replied, then bit down on her silver teeth, suddenly turning her head: "No! I have to go back again! How come she didn’t even give us a chance to speak!"

Saying that.

He was about to drag Xia Panqiu to continue heading out to find Chen Lusi again.

But this time, Xia Panqiu held onto her, slightly bowed her head, and softly said: "Don’t go, can’t you see? They’re on a date, we’re going to be disruptive..."

"..."

Shu Li paused, then curiously asked: "...A date?"

"What else could you think she sent us back for?"

Xia Panqiu looked at Shu Li’s face: "So don’t go disturbing them."

Saying that.

She let go of Shu Li’s hand and walked directly inside: "Let’s go, if there’s anything to discuss, we’ll do it later."

A date...

Shu Li recalled the last scene she saw, suddenly realizing.

Then, she understood something, looked up at Xia Panqiu’s back, showing a thoughtful expression.

On the other side.

Si Yujie and Wu You were also watching Xia Panqiu’s back with varying expressions.

Finally.

Shu Li was the first to react, not going to find Chen Lusi anymore, but following Xia Panqiu, directly walking into Celestial Strategy Trading’s interior.

Seemingly, she had something to say.

And her teammates exchanged a glance, and followed her.

"I’ll go take a look too."

Wu You saw this scene, left a comment, and followed closely.

Very soon.

The initially large group of people finished leaving.

And Xia Panqiu, at the forefront, entered the gourd first.

In the gourd, the scenery remained the same.

Dim mist was floating everywhere, vast and boundless.

Xia Panqiu picked up the Horse-Cutting Saber placed on the ground, recalling the scene she had seen before, knowing that Chen Lusi and Lin Ying grew up together but, for some reason, just felt uncomfortable.

...Even though her ’First Line’ training had progressed quite well.

She pursed her sleek red lips, suddenly took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the superfluous thoughts.

Forget it... Practice still has to go on.

She picked up the Horse-Cutting Saber, walked forward, wanting to continue practicing.

But just as she took a step.

Shu Li entered the gourd, following behind.

Xia Panqiu glanced at her, without speaking.

"Xia Panqiu."

Shu Li suddenly called her name, then directly asked: "Do you like Chen Lusi?"

"..."

Xia Panqiu halted her steps, then abruptly turned around to look at Shu Li: "You, you’re speaking nonsense!"

Shu Li realized.

...

At the same time.

Si Yujie glanced at Celestial Strategy Trading’s interior, was silent for a moment, then gently shook her head.

...What a coincidence indeed.

Xia Panqiu had finally mustered the courage to approach Chen Lusi, intending to persuade him, yet happened to catch him on a date with someone.

This time, it’s likely she won’t have the courage to persuade anymore.

Thinking of this.

Si Yujie couldn’t help but shake her head again, then looked forward: "Alright, come out, stop pretending to be mystical."

"..."

After the words fell.

In front of Si Yujie.

Wing wing wing—

A small snow-white fox suddenly appeared, holding something in its mouth, and suddenly jumped out from mid-air.

After landing.

The snow-white fox vanished.

Instead, there was a woman, who looked young, appeared clear and soft, yet her brows showed a hint of fox-like charm.

She was also dressed in a white dress, but compared to suitable outdoor wear, her outfit looked more like a gown, with a long skirt nearly dragging on the ground.

"What pretending to be mystical, can’t you see I’m nervous?"

The voice came.

Si Yujie looked at the newcomer’s face.

...It was Tang Language.

"After all, someone like me, facing Golden God Rushou, how could I not be nervous."

Tang Language, holding a large Stone, stood in front of Si Yujie with a radiant smile: "By the way, you won’t kill me, right?"

"If you continue to play tricks, it’s not guaranteed."

Si Yujie glanced at her: "After all, you’re already three hundred years old, still pretending to be a little girl."

"...I’ve said it several times! Don’t defame me! I’m three hundred years old through and through, just like you are twenty!"

Tang Language, hearing this, immediately bristled, furiously: "This statement is just as irritating as ’you’re a twenty-something-old maid’! Can you stop defaming me in front of newcomers!"

"Alright, just say what you need to."

Si Yujie completely ignored her blatant anger, calmly said: "If you’re here for a visit, then have a cup of tea and be on your way."
