My Arms Can Turn into Blades

Chapter 730 - 22: Yellow Springs and the Scepter

"...What do you mean the people from Celestial Strategy Mansion want to see me?"

Upon hearing the believer’s words,

Park Haoyu stood there stunned.

Only after a long time.

He reacted, looked at that ordinary believer, and murmured a question.

Clearly.

He had not prepared himself mentally for this, or rather, he had never even considered the possibility.

"It’s literal."

The believer’s expression was somewhat fearful, and said tremblingly: "The people from Celestial Strategy Mansion want to meet you! They said it’s about understanding the matters related to the Roman Catholic Church... What should we do, Sect Leader? It can be the Celestial Strategy Mansion, twice rubbed the Roman Catholic Church on the ground, even dared to prosecute the Holy Coffin Knight, capturing a large number of our senior members from there."

Clearly.

The ordinary believer was very flustered.

After all, revering strength is relative.

When a Cardinal from the Roman Catholic Church stands before them, they feel afraid.

Now that Celestial Strategy Mansion, which has disgraced the Roman Catholic Church, sends people, are they not afraid?

Certainly not possible.

In fact.

Upon hearing the believer’s words again, Park Haoyu also panicked.

He subconsciously opened his mouth to refuse: "Not meeting..."

"Are you sure?"

The ordinary believer immediately refuted: "Sect Leader."

This was also his first time directly opposing the authority of this Sect Leader.

"..."

Instead of getting angry, Park Haoyu abruptly fell silent.

...Half an hour later.

A young man with a close-cropped haircut and dressed in casual attire walked in.

Upon seeing him, Park Haoyu almost instantly confirmed.

This was no joke... The person was not Korean.

Celestial Strategy Mansion really sent someone.

As for how he discerned this, one could say it was a matter of aura.

Of course, it could also be psychological.

"Celestial Strategy Mansion."

The young man didn’t scrutinize Park Haoyu but instead directly introduced himself simply: "Tu Shou."

"Park Haoyu..."

Up to this moment, Park Haoyu could not ascertain the other’s intentions, only feeling it was likely an attempt at drawing in, so he followed the other’s words, stating his name, and continued: "I wonder, Celestial Strategy Mansion..."

"Twice."

But Tu Shou did not wait for Park Haoyu to finish his sentence, directly interrupting: "The Advanced Empowerer of Mujin New Church illegally invaded our country twice in total."

"..."

Upon hearing this, Park Haoyu’s face suddenly changed.

What does that mean?

Opening with this?

Doesn’t Celestial Strategy Mansion know the situation with Mujin New Church? Don’t they know the relationship between Mujin New Church and the Roman Catholic Church? Under those circumstances, could Mujin New Church say no?

Opening with such an awkward topic, and speaking to me as the Sect Leader, is this drawing in Mujin New Church? Or... coming to declare war?

Suddenly.

Park Haoyu didn’t know how to respond, his face turned from blue to white: "That time’s matter..."

"There’s no need for you to say ’misunderstanding.’

Tu Shou interrupted him again, his expression calm: "You and we, Celestial Strategy Mansion, both know what’s going on. This time, I’m not here to hear your explanation, but to represent all the high-levels of Celestial Strategy Mansion, to inform you one thing... Things don’t happen a third time.

We don’t want such a thing to happen a third time."

"..."

Park Haoyu’s face completely turned iron-blue, his eyes flickered, anger surged.

"Sect Leader Park, you should know what we’re talking about."

Seeing Park Haoyu’s eyes flickering, Tu Shou not only did not retreat but instead took a step forward, standing in front of this renowned Advanced Empowerer in Goryeo, and continued: "Cardinal Lamar Aihai appeared in Goryeo, right? We don’t know his purpose, and we’re not interested in knowing.

Whether it’s the Holy Coffin Knight or the Inquisition Official... even the current Cardinal.

We, Celestial Strategy Mansion, can accept it; it’s merely another prosecution.

This is not the key."

Upon hearing the keywords of Holy Coffin Knight, prosecution, Park Haoyu’s expression froze.

"Sect Leader Park, we just want to know whether your Mujin New Church is involved in this; that is the key."

Tu Shou spoke while taking another step forward, pressing: "Chen Lusi Celestial Strategy, Ji Xin Celestial Strategy needs to know this, because if there is a third time, then it won’t be just prosecution.

Park Haoyu: "..."

Tu Shou’s strength is not strong, nor is his tier high.

Park Haoyu knew this very well, extremely well.

Even.

He could crush the ant-like Tu Shou right in front of him, who kept pressing closer, reversing the guest-host role, as if he were the superior.

But he couldn’t.

Because Tu Shou was not a Korean Empowerer, because he represented Celestial Strategy Mansion, because he had just mentioned Ji Xin and... Chen Lusi.

Mujin New Church was not blind nor deaf.

Why, before Lamar Aihai came, did so many in Mujin New Church oppose continuing participating in the war between the Roman Catholic Church and Celestial Mansion, why did he, the Sect Leader, do nothing about it, and in the end, Lamar Aihai had to personally take action, using violence to suppress the opposition?

Wasn’t it because of hearing about the completion of the prosecution’s news... out of fear.

Not only afraid of the Roman Catholic Church, correspondingly also afraid of Celestial Strategy Mansion.

Otherwise, he would’ve already ruthlessly dealt with internal opposition.

So at this moment.

Even though Tu Shou was weak and arrogant.

The murderous intent in Park Haoyu’s heart was strong, yet he dared not act, and indeed... thinking of the name Chen Lusi that had spread throughout the Empowerer circle, he also had to consider how he would answer that damned question from the other.

Meanwhile.

The ordinary believer who had just notified Park Haoyu was already so scared that even his breathing had stopped.
