"Young Calculator friend, I am Shangguan Yunfan, the current head of the Shangguan Family. May I ask if you can demonstrate your skills on the spot for everyone?"
Shangguan Yunfan smiled very gracefully, without putting on airs or speaking like an elder to suppress Lin Chen.
Unexpectedly, Lin Chen, who was biting a bright red apple, waved his hand, "No."
"What? F**k, do you think the Shangguan Family is?"
An irritable elder stood up directly, revealing a fierce light as he stared at Lin Chen.
Bang!
What surprised everyone was that Lin Chen actually kicked over the table in front of him directly. Tea splashed all over the floor as he flipped the middle finger and launched into a torrent of verbal abuse!
"F**k! Do you think I, the calculator Shi Lezhi, am someone to be trifled with? Calculators deduce fate and peek at the secrets of heaven, which requires a great price. Do you think this is some streetside trick? You want me to perform at your beck and call? Has your brain gone soft?"
This scene made even the guards stationed outside the hall feel their hair stand on end!
In the entire history of Myriad Spirits City, which person dared to speak such vicious words in front of the Shangguan Family's elders like this!
Even Shangguan Yunfan was stunned for a moment. What kind of deity was this? Even the chief alchemist of Myriad Spirits City didn't dare to speak arrogantly in front of them!
Lin Chen knew his own matters best. He was a damned calculator!
If he really demonstrated it in front of these old monsters, who knows what flaws might be revealed. So he had to act arrogantly! He had to bluff!
"Master, please calm down. My father and the elders certainly did not have any malice. They were just curious to see the master's skills."
Shangguan Bihan immediately soothed Lin Chen's emotions. That elder was also hinted by another elder to sit back down angrily.
Only then did Lin Chen tidy his clothes and slowly sit back down. "You have to have the proper attitude when asking someone for help. Don't make it seem like I'm the one sticking to you. First, tell me what exactly you want to discuss with me."
The several older elders immediately knitted their brows, about to flare up, but Shangguan Yunfan stopped them with his hand. He felt that this young man was definitely no ordinary mortal. He had a kind of mysteriousness that he couldn't see through.
"Haha, I offended you just now. In that case, let's get to the point. Our Shangguan Family practices secret arts passed down through our ancestral bloodline, giving us special abilities - the Purple Golden Eyes."
Shangguan Yunfan revealed a slightly painful look of recollection, then continued speaking.
"The Purple Golden Eyes can see through many treasures between heaven and earth or energy fluctuations hidden between heaven and earth. It is the unique skill of our clan. But in the last hundred years, our cultivation of the Purple Golden Eyes has gradually declined, because the ancestral altar that supports the cultivation of the entire family has gradually begun to lose its might, leading to our clan's Purple Golden Eyes cultivation coming to a standstill, even the cultivation of the new younger generation becoming difficult to sustain."
Finally, he sighed deeply, the abilities of the Purple Golden Eyes could not be cultivated through combat skills or cultivation techniques. Only by being in the ancestral altar left by their ancestors could they cultivate it. If the ancestral altar completely lost its effectiveness one day, it would be the countdown to their family's decline.
At this time, a white-haired old man took over the conversation. He was the second elder of the Shangguan Family and held great authority. He sincerely said,
"Because of this matter, we spent a great price to invite a calculator to deduce our ancestral altar, but it was to no avail. If you can solve this problem, no, even if you can just figure out the reason for our Shangguan Family ancestral altar's decline, our family will definitely reward you richly!"
Clearly, they must have been driven to desperation. Otherwise, with the arrogance of these old fellows, how could they believe in a youngster like Lin Chen? Now they were just grasping at straws.
Upon hearing Shangguan Yunfan and the Second Elder's explanation, Lin Chen's eyes lit up. His heart shook. Could it be that light orb of attributes?
"Alright, I understand the situation now. In that case, let's begin!"
Lin Chen was eager and enthusiastic, rolling up his sleeves and standing up. His speed of agreeing made everyone look sideways at him!
"This... doesn't Master Shi plan to discuss remuneration first?"
Shangguan Yunfan was bewildered and doubtful. Were there calculators like this who didn't even clarify the remuneration before getting started?
"Once we find the root cause of the problem, I will naturally bring up remuneration matters. Otherwise, discussing remuneration now would just be wasting time, right?"
Lin Chen bent down to pick up a light orb of attributes, smiling blithely. Lin Chen's confident appearance made Shangguan Yunfan laugh heartily. "Hahaha, Master Shi Lezhi is indeed an interesting person."
"Less nonsense. All of you, don't move! Let this grandmaster carefully and meticulously study the fengshui and fortune here."
Lin Chen immediately started gathering the light orbs of attributes in the living room without another word. The quality of the light orbs here was extremely high, and the quantity was not small either. Lin Chen had been eyeing them for a long time!
As Lin Chen's strength improved, even if he didn't actively attack his opponent, some light orbs of attributes would drop from Spiritual Transformation realm experts. Allowing him to gather a full basket.
[Host obtains 6849 points of Wood Elemental Energy, 5899 points of Fire Elemental Energy, 18922 points of Cultivation Technique Quintessence, 531 points of Mental Strength, 23781 points of Vital Energy...]
The attributes rose in a straight line, making Lin Chen's mouth curl up crazily.
His actions made everyone even more confused. What was this guy doing? He said he would help them find out the problem with their ancestral altar, but he was randomly grabbing at the air?
"What technique is this?"
"Do calculators deduce numbers and calculate the heavens like this normally...?"
After gathering up the light orbs in the great hall, Lin Chen continued gathering towards the outside of the palace.
The crowd hurriedly followed him. They also wanted to figure out what tricks this calculator master Shi Lezhi was up to!
[Host obtains 359 points of Spirit, 4195 points of Cultivation Technique Quintessence, 3125 points of Fire Elemental Energy, 10274 points of Vital Energy...]
Lin Chen crazily gathered all the way, like a whirlwind sweeping away fallen leaves. All those scattered, dazzling light orbs on the ground were taken away by him!
Even the guards in the Shangguan residence were at least at the Reaching Heaven state. Even the servants were at the Tempering Qi state. The quality of the attributes they shed while cultivating was exceptionally high!
Lin Chen's mouth was about to split from smiling. This whole Shangguan residence was simply a huge treasure trove!
The Shangguan residence was so large that even if Lin Chen ran at full speed, it would take over half an hour to get through it all. With his jogging and gathering, he didn't finish until night fell!
"What is this guy gathering? He's gone over half the Shangguan residence today!"
"Hey, don't you know, he's the calculator that Miss Shangguan Bihan invited. Hahaha!"
"Pfft! Beggar, I'll believe it. Randomly groping the ground, I can do that too!"
"Keep your voice down. He's someone even the Second Elder highly values."
"Come on, I see he's definitely a fraud. Miss Bihan is probably too inexperienced and got tricked by this guy."
The many young people in the Shangguan residence saw Lin Chen randomly groping around and ridiculed and mocked him ceaselessly. Even Nangong Qingyu was waiting to watch Lin Chen's spectacle.
...
The next day; Shangguan Yunfan's discussion hall.
Today, the Shangguan Family happened to welcome some heavyweight guests; they had to be personally welcomed by Shangguan Yunfan. They were people from the City Lord's Mansion!
As well as one person - a true calculator who deduced the heavens and calculated fate, invited by the City Lord's Mansion at great expense!
ave】 Shen Qingling was a man with peerless looks, a cunning mind, and the ability to play both the aloof noble and the innocent sweetheart—a master of seduction who could outplay any player. But after an untimely death, he found himself bound to a system and transmigrated into the tragic "true young master" of a melodramatic novel. In the original story, his childhood sweetheart treated him as a backup plan, his fiancée swore to break off their engagement for the sake of the "fake young master," and his own sister saw him as the family's disgrace. He was nothing more than a rat everyone wanted to stomp on. System 077: "Your mission is to change the original fate and conquer the goddesses." Shen Qingling: "Thanks for the invite. If seduction had tiers, I’d be max level." His childhood sweetheart knelt, begging for forgiveness: "Qingling, I was wrong. Please give me another chance." His ex-fiancée refused to marry anyone else: "Shen Qingling, I was blind before. In this life, I’ll marry no one but you." A yandere CEO went mad for love: "Shen Qingling, you can only like me. I’ll stop at nothing to make you mine!" His green-tea sister clung to him daily: "Brother, look at me, won’t you? I’m more obedient than them—I love you the most~" At first, they scorned and trampled on him. Later, they burned themselves like moths to a flame, all for his sake. His looks were his weapon, his sweet words the bait—heroines obsessed over him, villains turned to madness for him. Shen Qingling became a true male siren, igniting battlefield after battlefield of women fighting for his affection. Years later, when System 077—now one of the elites—was asked how to become as outstanding as it, it lazily exhaled a smoke ring and replied: "Just know how to cheer ‘666’ at the right time."
Cheng's father told him he was getting remarried—to a wealthy woman. Cao Cheng realized his time had finally come: he was about to become a second-generation rich kid. Sure, it might be a watered-down version, but hey, at least he'd have status now, right? The wealthy woman also had four daughters!! Which meant, starting today, Cao Cheng gained four stunning older sisters?? But that wasn't even the whole story... "My name is Cao Cheng—'Cheng' as in 'honest, smooth-talking gentleman'!"
] This is a dark fantasy-themed dating simulation game. The main gameplay involves containing various monster girls and investigating the truth of a world shrouded in mist alongside your companions. However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game. Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw! To Luo Wei, the female leads in the game are more like tools to perfectly clear levels and squeeze out rewards. For Luo Wei, flirting with every girl he meets and then discarding them is standard procedure. Worried about characters losing affection points? No need. With his maxed-out charm stat, Luo Wei is practically a "human incubus." A little psychological manipulation and those points come right back. It's a bit scummy, but the paper cutout heroines in the game won't actually come at him with real cleavers. However... Luo Wei has transmigrated. He's accidentally entered the second playthrough of this game. His past actions have caused all the girls to transform into terrifying yanderes. Due to the game's setting, most of the heroines he once contained are "troubled girls." Obsessive, twisted, mentally unstable, all aggressive yanderes... The type who will kill you if they can't have you... Luo Wei wants to cry but has no tears left. "I really just want to survive..." In short, this is a story of battling wits and engaging in a love-hate relationship with yanderes.
lan, the Luo family, tracked him down - along with the babies in their arms. Mo Xuan stared pensively at the paternity test results from over a dozen top institutions, both domestic and international, showing a 99.99% match between himself and the two baby girls. At 23, Mo Xuan, a doctoral student, had become the father of two three-year-old children. The kicker? The mothers weren't even the same person! He gradually realized he was being lured step by step into an elaborate trap designed by these two yandere sisters. "Be good, little Xuan. Sister's life belongs to you entirely." "Brother, if you try to run away, I'll have no choice but to tie you up." Mo Xuan: "Do whatever you want, ladies. I give up."
