My Arms Can Turn into Blades-Chapter 235 - 179: Awakening

Zhou Jian noticed Chen Lusi's gaze, slightly raised the sheepskin paper in his hand, explained briefly, then asked, "Do you want to take a look?"

Chen Lusi looked at the sheepskin paper, but didn't reach out to take it. Instead, he remembered Xia Panqiu's decision, somewhat lost in thought.

Zhou Jian was a bit puzzled: "Chen Lusi?"

Chen Lusi came back to himself and shook his head again: "No need."

"Got it."

Zhou Jian nodded and didn't insist.

"The First Rider Position is likely resolved. What do I need to do next?"

Chen Lusi picked up the sniper rifle again, knelt on one knee, positioned himself with the rifle, and asked a question.

"Wait."

Zhou Jian temporarily put away the sheepskin paper, also knelt on one knee, and picked up the binoculars again: "Observe Li Zheng's side first. If there's any movement on the other side, I'll alert you. I want to see... who dares to truly defy the world and commit treason!"

"Mm."

Chen Lusi nodded.

Then, the two fell into silence.

And soon, Chen Lusi's thoughts drifted away again, somewhat lost in thought.

He suddenly remembered what Si Yujie had said to him not long ago.

"Chen Lusi, actually there are many interesting things... For instance, to me, you're very interesting. And your existence is actually very meaningful to many people, I believe Wu You and Panqiu think so too."

The meaning of existence...?

Chen Lusi, holding the sniper rifle, thought about recent events, about the two sisters, about Xia Panqiu just now. After a moment of silence, he suddenly said, "Zhou Jian."

"Hmm?"

Zhou Jian heard Chen Lusi's voice and immediately turned his head.

But Chen Lusi raised his head, looking at Zhou Jian, who wasn't much older than himself, hesitated for a moment, and in the end, said nothing, only shook his head.

"It's nothing."

Zhou Jian: "..."

He was a bit confused.

But Chen Lusi had already lowered his head again, pressing his eye to the sight.

Zhou Jian could only pick up the binoculars again.

Then.

He saw a shocking scene.

"...Damn it! They actually came!"

Zhou Jian, holding the binoculars, suddenly shouted in anger: "Just to embarrass Ji Xin! Just because they're dissatisfied with the current strategy of the Celestial Strategy Mansion, they really chose to commit treason!?"

Chen Lusi gathered his thoughts, was silent for a moment, and asked, "What do you mean?"

"It's some old folks! They actually dare to defy the world, cruising along the border, ready to come over to cause trouble! They want us to fail! ...Just want us to fail, is that it!?"

As Zhou Jian spoke, he grew increasingly angry, immediately put down the binoculars, turned his head to look at Chen Lusi, and shouted, "Please! Southeast direction! See the person in front of Mount Tai? Shoot him! Don't hold back!!!"

"..."

Chen Lusi didn't answer but slowly moved the gun muzzle.

Soon, he found Mount Tai.

He seemed very angry too, watching an elderly man saying something.

Chen Lusi slightly estimated the distance, then lifted his left hand supporting the rifle body.

Gathering Spirit, Change Attribute, infuse into the gun... pull the trigger!

Click—

The gun made a sound as if it were about to dismantle.

The sniper rifle's body vibrated, the bullet left the chamber, trailing a blue light, and sped away in an instant.

In mid-air, a thick blue beam of light, resembling a laser, appeared again.

On Li Zheng's side.

Anna, silent, was weighing the situation, when she suddenly caught a glimpse of something from the corner of her eye and looked up sharply.

The subordinates behind her also looked up sharply.

Seeing the blue beam flash in the sky.

Immediately after.

The familiar sound of an explosion came vividly.

The Chamomile Alliance members' faces turned pale again, vastly different from their initial state.

Only after realizing it wasn't targeting their side did they sigh in relief.

Anna slightly tilted her head, looking at the sky, her face full of shock.

Why?

Why... can he use it again?

Could it be... he was holding a fake just now?

A thought crossed her mind.

But Anna quickly dismissed the thought.

No...

She began to recall everything that had happened moments ago.

Then, her eyes slowly widened.

Li Zheng's reaction upon noticing Chen Lusi's disappearance, his indifference when Anna took away the sniper rifle, the completely unconventional pistol in Chen Lusi's hand, his extraordinary combat power, and the anomaly of the Saint...

All of these seemed to point to a possibility.

It wasn't the weapon that empowered Chen Lusi.

But rather... he empowered the weapon.
