Chapter 201: Rowdy Paper Men

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Looking at the chattering Paper Men in the room, Lu Yuan felt like he was facing a group of naughty children.

In a sense, the Paper Men could be considered his clones.

However, Lu Yuan thought that he was a person who planned things out and had a steady personality. Meanwhile, the people in front of him were noisy and kept a festive mood going. It was obvious that they were not calm unlike him.

Lu Yuan guessed that those guys had stayed in the storage bag for too long, causing them to feel stifled and bored.

After all, ever since the Paper Binding Technique advanced to the divine soul Paper Binding Technique, the nature of the Paper Man had changed from a consumable item to a special existence that was independent of traditional creatures.

If one had to describe it, the Paper Man was a special kind of spiritual monster created by Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan had only heard of flowers and trees turning into spirits, but he had never encountered a paper man that could turn into a spirit.

It could only be said that the system’s advanced skills were far more powerful than he had imagined.

Lu Yuan finally spoke when he saw the little Paper Men standing on the desk and activating the Immortal Hero Version of a popular game.

“Shut up!”

As soon as Lu Yuan spoke, the Paper Men on the table instantly quieted down.

The little ones raised their heads and looked in Lu Yuan’s direction.

Looking at Lu Yuan’s ashen face, the little fellows looked at each other, as if they were all shocked.

Lu Yuan thought that if he did not show his might, the Paper Men would continue disregarding him.

However, just as Lu Yuan thought that the group of little fellows had finally settled down, a Paper Man broke the hard-earned silence.

“Number 23, Master told you to shut up.”

“He was obviously talking about you, Number 78.”

“He’s probably telling Number 13 to shut up, right, Number 58?”

“More like asking Number 47 to shut up!”

“No, he was asking Number 78 to shut up!”

As they spoke, the Paper Men started quarrelling again. They all accused each other of being the target of Lu Yuan’s command to shut up.

Looking at the Paper Men that were once again making a ruckus, Lu Yuan could not take it anymore.

“I’m asking all of you to shut up!”

“Did you hear that? Master told all of us to shut up.”

“I heard it. Master said that everyone should shut up.”

“Then why don’t you shut up?”

“Well, I did. Aren’t I just telling you to shut up?”

“I know 1 have to shut up. Do I need you to tell me?”

“If you don’t say it, how do 1 know that you know that you need to shut up?”

Looking at the Paper Men that had barely been quiet for a few seconds, Lu Yuan completely gave up.

He was wrong, terribly wrong.

Those Paper Men did have some intelligence, but it was not much.

After realizing that he could not keep them under complete control, Lu Yuan decisively put away most of the Paper Men.

Having left behind ten Paper Men, Lu Yuan told them where to go, which exact position to hide in, and who to spy on.

After successfully commanding the ten Paper Men, Lu Yuan quickly arranged the other Paper Men’s tasks.

In the end, Lu Yuan managed to position the 100 Paper Men in their respective places.

In fact, if one were to look at the pairs of Paper Men from above, they would be akin to chess pieces in a formation on a board, the board being the Imperial capital.

When all 100 Paper Men set off, Lu Yuan finally heaved a sigh of relief.

It was really not easy.

Communicating with the Paper Men was even more tiring than fighting with Bi Fang and Hook Snake.

Lu Yuan also began to understand why some parents in his previous life would cry when tutoring their children.

The frustration and helplessness brought about by this situation could completely shatter the inner defence of an adult.

“Sigh, if 1 had known earlier, 1 would have given them less self-conciousness when I made them. Then, such a troublesome thing wouldn’t have happened.”

At that moment, Lu Yuan missed those simple Paper Men who only listened to orders and did not speak vulgar words.

At the 13th district of the Imperial capital, District 13, two little Paper Men were like night cats, tiptoeing toward a certain area.

They walked on the beams. Due to their negligible weight and the lack of life aura on their bodies, they could not be seen.

As a result, they moved like ghosts and did not attract anyone’s attention at all, not even cultivators’.

In the face of a Core Formation Stage cultivator’s spiritual sense, the Paper Men would seem invisible. This was because of the special material from which the Paper Men were made and the fact that Lu Yuan had added some special array formations when making the Paper Men.

If one wanted to observe the Paper Men, they could only do so with their naked eyes.

With such a unique advantage, the two Paper Men ran to their destination in the 13th district one after another..
