135 Give Them Something to Talk Abou (2/2)

He smiled and leaped to his feet again. Never mind the eye color he still hadn't determined yet, at least he had the general appearance, part of the personality and a name. That was quite good already. For now, he might as well work on the protagonist and ask Nie Chang for his opinion after that.

Su Yan turned to the other platform where the figure of Yun Bei Fen was still displayed. He had still derived his new male lead from Nie Chang's appearance but he felt like he didn't need to use his own appearance for the protagonist again. He had already written so many xianxia stories, he was completely capable of crafting his protagonist from scratch without any other help!

He narrowed his eyes at the figure and imagined a youth in a traditional gown. His face lacked the cuteness of Yun Bei Fen and he wasn't as handsome as the new male lead Ziju An. In fact, the teenager looked a bit ordinary. If seen next to Ziju An, he might even be considered slightly ugly.

Su Yan smirked. This was supposed to be a story where people would talk about the couple behind their backs. The other cultivators wanted to point their fingers? Then he should give them some more incentive to do just that!

Furthermore, in which xianxia story would the protagonist get everything presented on a silver platter right at the beginning? He would only get some kind of cheat and then have to work hard and even harder to finally reach the peak! Since the readers also wanted him to include more fights then he shouldn't disappoint them.

”Eh, right, speaking of that I should probably also make sure that the sword arts are noted down as a trait of the characters.” He frowned. ”Well, I hope everything is actually working. I don't really understand how the Special Dimension works.” He sighed and shook his head. Wasn't it all the fault of this unreliable system? Why couldn't it at least give him some hints when he asked something?

”Whatever. System, note this down: Both the male lead and the protagonist should be talented with the sword!” He pursed his lips. ”Well, Ziju An should be really talented. It's alright if the protagonist is only a bit talented. After all, that's what his master is for. And they need something that forces them to spend time together, right? Training sword arts is exactly the right reason for that!”

He grinned and couldn't help but feel a little bit smug. This was even better than he had thought. Crafting the characters was actually even helping him plan the story.

His protagonist still needed a name though. ”How about … Dou Fang Hai?”

Su Yan nodded enthusiastically and skipped back in front of his male lead. He had found names for the two of them and even thought of something he could use in the story. It couldn't be that he would actually fail at finding a suitable eye color for his male lead!

”Damn this! Let's take … take …” He looked at the narrow phoenix eyes of Ziju An and frowned.

He couldn't take something normal. He definitely couldn't. This kind of Daoist master definitely wasn't suited to something ordinary. His gaze should be deep and penetrating. The kind of gaze where people would stop whatever they were doing as soon as they were glanced at.

Su Yan examined the dark gray robe with the golden ornaments and paused. This … Wasn't this a suitable color?

He looked up at those eyes and they slowly turned golden with some specks of gray. It should have seemed strange but … in that kind of face those eyes seemed like they were a matter of course. It seemed he had finally managed to completely craft his incredibly handsome male lead.

Ah, he really wanted to start writing right now!
