The Omniversal Merchant-Chapter 211: Wei Yi, the Internet-Addicted Cultivator

"The boss is just that kind of person," Yao Ziyan said, not caring whether Luo Chuan was listening. "As long as you follow the rules of Origin Mall, everything is simple."

Liu Ruyu nodded in agreement.

Rules.

That was the only thing the boss truly cared about. She had learned this lesson well during her time at Origin Mall.

Liu Ruyu turned to Yao Ziyan, curiosity flickering in her eyes. "Sister Ziyan, why did you become a clerk here? With your strength, you could easily be one of the top experts on the Azure Continent."

A hint of reminiscence crossed Yao Ziyan's face as she thought back to when she first met Luo Chuan. She smiled.

"Perhaps... it was fate."

It could only be called fate.

That day, during a battle in the sky, she had fallen directly into the spot where Luo Chuan was enjoying the rain. Coincidentally, he had just drawn Jade Nectar Dew, allowing her to restore the vitality she had lost.

Maybe it was all predestined.

Liu Ruyu frowned. "Fate? That's... kind of hard to understand."

Yao Ziyan only smiled knowingly.

She glanced at Luo Chuan, who was still lounging outside, and suddenly felt a strange sense of resentment.

Luo Chuan, enjoying the sunlight, suddenly got an odd feeling, as if someone was thinking about him.

Had he done something wrong recently?

He thought about it but couldn't come up with anything.

Liu Ruyu, having finished her instant noodles, put on her helmet and entered the casual mode.

Not long after, Bu Shiyi and Bu Lige arrived.

Seeing Liu Ruyu already inside the game, they immediately felt a sense of crisis.

She got here earlier than us?!

"Sister Ziyan! We need two spots!" Bu Lige shouted.

Yao Ziyan skillfully collected their spirit crystals.

After finishing their own instant noodles, the two immediately entered the Casual mode.

Though no one really knew the probability of finding missions in casual mode, everyone agreed—the sooner you start, the better.

The screen flickered. When the game reloaded, they appeared in the exact location where they had logged out yesterday.

In casual mode, players generally respawned where they last disconnected.

Of course, if someone died before logging out, they would respawn at the lake, which had long since become the default starting point.

"Good morning, Boss!"

Wei Yi, who had just arrived, greeted Luo Chuan with a bright smile.

Luo Chuan opened his eyes and saw a familiar figure.

He blinked.

Wei Yi looked exactly like one of those internet-addicted teenagers from Earth who had stayed up all night gaming.

His eyes were slightly sunken, with dark circles forming around them. His excitement was obvious, but underneath it all, his exhaustion was just as clear.

Luo Chuan frowned. "What happened to you?"

Wei Yi laughed sheepishly.

"Haha! Boss, yesterday in casual mode, I got a Fire technique! I just had to test it out!"

His voice was full of excitement, his hands moving animatedly as he spoke.

Luo Chuan stared at him.

This guy looks sick.

But, keeping up his cold and indifferent image, Luo Chuan resisted the urge to comment.

Wei Yi, still buzzing with energy, continued making wild hand gestures.

"Boss, you won't believe it! My control over Deep Sea Ice Flame has improved by a whole 30%!"

Now his eyes practically shone with excitement.

"With this, I can refine the ultimate profound-grade pill! Hahaha...!"

Luo Chuan remained silent.

He really was an internet-addicted cultivator.
