Chapter 791 Let's Do the Numbers (12)

Seven days passed in a flash.

After the seventh day, Yun Jianxian sat in front of Lin Yuan's desk, looking at Lin Yuan nervously.

She placed her hands on her knees, tapping her toes rhythmically against each other, her hands sweating and soaking her skirt.

Beside her, Zhong Huai whispered, "Don't be too nervous, the big boss is very kind. Besides, you've made great progress in these seven days, we've all seen it. Come on, smile and relax."

Yun Jianxian wanted to laugh to ease his tension, but could only manage an expression that was worse than crying.

Seeing the girl's smile, Zhong Huai turned his head and said in a low voice, "You'd better stop smiling."

"Uncle Zhong..."

Behind the desk, Lin Yuan finished reading about Yun Jianxian's recent situation and made a "hmm..." sound.

To be honest, Yun Jianxian's performance was better than he had expected.

It only took the other party seven days to go from knowing nothing about game magic to being able to handle some needs independently.

Although a disciple of the Myriad Laws Sect might only need half an hour, considering that the other party is a sword cultivator, this achievement is already something to be proud of.

Logically speaking, Yun Jianxian should be a good game spell weaver, but some of the things Zhong Huai summarized made Lin Yuan discover something more interesting.

Pointing to the data on the Cloud Sword Immortal compiled by Zhong Huai, Lin Yuan asked curiously, "Zhong Huai, are you sure there are no problems with the data you compiled?"

“Absolutely no problem,” Zhong Huai said seriously. “Given my relationship with Yun Jianxian, I will only write the worst version of the story.”

"makes sense."

“Uncle Zhong…” Yun Jianxian’s eyes were filled with tears, but Zhong Huai only said softly, “Tell the truth.”

After a closer look, Lin Yuan even checked Yun Jianxian's magical achievements and found that Zhong Huai's statement was correct.

Yun Jianxian's magical skills were not high; in many ways, Lin Yuan even suspected that the other party was actually a monkey who only knew magic and had edited out usable spells by chance.

The extent of the tragedy was so appalling that it could only be described as a tragedy.

Even so, the other party has one extremely prominent characteristic.

Her magic had no flaws.

All sword cultivators may make various mistakes when creating spells.

Some mistakes may be due to insufficient strength, some to not considering too many consequences, and some to negligence. In addition, there are bizarre loopholes such as "stepping in with the left foot today caused the jade slip to be displeased and the spell to malfunction." However, there are some reasons behind these loopholes.

However, the unique feature of Yun Jianxian is that her magic has no flaws.

Although it's possible that the loop might occur hundreds of times at a single unimportant node, or that there might be duplicated variables that leave others completely clueless about how to maintain them, or that the spells might jump around haphazardly and be overwhelming, overall, she managed to avoid creating a single vulnerability, and all the spells were still usable.

Why is this?
Upon closer inspection, Lin Yuan discovered that the opponent also had some flaws in certain areas. However, they would then create another spell with other flaws, and the two flawed spells would combine in a strange but effective way, thus achieving the original function.

After carefully reading it, Lin Yuan couldn't help but say, "I always thought you were a bit abstract because you're human, but I never expected that the spells you created would be just as abstract."

"Hehe." Yun Jianxian rubbed his head sheepishly. "Big boss, you actually value me that much?"

"...I wasn't praising you. What were you thinking behind these spells? Why did you weave them this way? Was there some special reason behind them?"

"Yes, it's... um..."

Yun Jianxian hummed in agreement for a long time, but didn't utter a single word.

After her face turned bright red from holding it in, she finally gave up and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't actually have any particular thoughts."

"Pure instinct?"

"...Yeah. I just felt it was the right way to do it, so I did it that way."

"Hmm..." With a pen in his mouth, Lin Yuan sometimes read Yun Jianxian's spells, and sometimes pondered something, making Yun Jianxian increasingly nervous.

As she fiddled with her hands, she began to wonder if she shouldn't have been so honest. Would it have been better to make up a reason, like how the magician looked a lot like the big boss, both of them being quite handsome?

If the big boss feels he's not suited to stay here, then perhaps it would be better to find a way to make his soul disappear, since a ghost marriage is no joke.

Just as Yun Jianxian had conceived her seventeenth way of dying, she heard Lin Yuan say, "Working as a sword cultivator here might not be suitable for you."

"farewell!"

"Eh?"

Looking up, Lin Yuan saw that Yun Jianxian was about to draw his sword and commit suicide. He immediately reached out and grabbed the other's magic sword, shouting sharply, "What are you doing?"

"Since I can't stay in Feijian, I might as well die!"

"Is it really that exaggerated? Zhong Huai, don't look at her with such obvious agreement!"

Yun Jianxian said resolutely, "I can never pay off an eleven-figure debt in my lifetime! I might as well die!"

"That's a bit of an exaggeration, but I didn't say I was going to fire you."

Meeting Yun Jianxian's curious gaze, Lin Yuan said helplessly, "What I mean is, it's a bit of a waste of your talents to have you do some spell weaving work. I have some more interesting work here, would you like to do it?"

"What kind of job?"

"Game stats".

"What it is?"

"You can think of it as an important position that adjusts the game's progress and the player's experience. This job can be done as long as you know basic arithmetic."

"Your requirements are so high," Yun Jianxian said with difficulty.

"...Sorry, I forgot you're a sword cultivator. Perhaps we could..."

Seeing that Lin Yuan was about to change his mind, Yun Jianxian realized that he had become a little too complacent.

Who do I think I am now that I dare to negotiate with the big boss!
No matter how difficult mathematics is, can it be more difficult than a ghost marriage?

Immediately grabbing Lin Yuan's sleeve, Yun Jianxian said earnestly, "Boss, I've thought it over carefully, and I'm willing to be the number."

"Won't this be too much for you? It won't be too difficult, will it?"

"Don't worry, I'm willing to climb any mountain for the sake of the big boss."

"Okay, that's good. Here are my numerical experience points. You can look at them if you want, or not if you don't. Now let me see your abilities."

While Lin Yuan and Yun Jianxian were exchanging numerical insights, Zhong Huai looked at the magical artifact beside him.

The magical artifact had been twisted into a pretzel, and the sharp sword energy on it had been shattered, as if it had been directly destroyed by some powerful external force.

Looking at Lin Yuan's hands again, Zhong Huai noticed that they were clean and without any marks.

How could someone shatter a magic sword along with its sword energy with just their bare body? Just who is this big boss?
He was once a Golden Core cultivator, but even when facing sword cultivators, especially the sword energy of the Cloud Sword Immortal, he could not have done it so easily, let alone twist it like this so easily.

Could it be that the big boss is actually a hidden Nascent Soul cultivator?

Although he was quite curious about Lin Yuan's background, Zhong Huai did not intend to delve into it.

Zhong Huai must have some skills to survive the treacherous upper realm and safely descend to the lower realm.

Some things are better left unasked about; those with a strong sense of curiosity will only get hurt faster.

Thinking of this, Zhong Huai took a sip of tea, suppressing all his questions and leaving them to his own devices.
