At two in the morning, Su Yuan and Chen Nuoyi wrapped up their discussion on the combat heart method "Fury Heart Attack".
"Su Yuan, your comprehension of this heart method is faster than mine. With your comprehension, you shouldn’t have been just average in the class before."
"Could it be that you were holding back before?"
Chen Nuoyi was amazed by Su Yuan’s insightful explanation of the heart method and was curious about the change in his comprehension.
When she was teaching Su Yuan martial arts before, he never learned this quickly.
To this, Su Yuan could only chuckle:
"Maybe my talent in Dao Heart is more prominent, so I’m quicker at learning heart methods."
Chen Nuoyi didn’t doubt him, having noticed his unusually steadfast Dao Heart over the past days.
She didn’t ask further, nodded, and then rode her shared flying sword back home to rest.
Su Yuan stood on the rooftop for a while, trying to operate the upgraded version of "Fury Heart Attack", discovering he had already reached the Minor Success stage of this heart method.
Reaching Great Success before the Martial Arts Competition starts shouldn’t be an issue.
But how to unleash the full potential of this heart method during the competition requires thorough research.
The following noon.
An deliveryman, at the school gate, was outsmarting the school security, delivering food orders to the students.
Every inch of the school’s fence had become battlegrounds for deliverymen and security, their clash was fierce.
And just as the security guards were tangled with deliverymen, a white-haired Lolita, bright as light, appeared at the school gate at some point.
Though she was excessively cute, strangely, no one around noticed her.
The white-haired Lolita raised her dazzling golden eyes, frowning slightly as she looked at Taihua High School before her:
"So small and shabby."
But then, her small brows relaxed:
"However... Demonic Qi is like an abyss."
Her little head turned slightly, landing on a building inside the campus. In her perspective, the sky above the building was already filled with cold and dark demonic fog.
"To think Taihua High School is harboring a demon... I came at the right time."
A rosy blush appeared on the white-haired Lolita’s cheeks. Unable to resist, she stuck out her little dainty tongue and licked her jelly-like translucent pink lips, then bounced into the campus.
As if entering an uninhabited land.
In the cafeteria, after selling as many as one hundred and fifty-five portions of Dragon Scale Roasted Goose, Su Yuan, like a satisfied old farmer, wiped the fine sweat off his forehead.
Though he didn’t completely sell out the two Dragon Scale Roasted Geese by noon, he figured he could sell the rest in the evening.
Thinking about earning a two thousand four hundred yuan commission in one go today, both Su Yuan and Chen Nuoyi were overjoyed.
Just as Su Yuan began to pack up to enjoy his lunch, a "ding-dong" sounded in his mind.
[Please be advised, an extremely dangerous righteous strongman is approaching you. This individual is a fearsome presence who relentlessly seeks demons across the land. With your current strength, you can’t withstand a single move from them.]
[If it were a typical demon cultivator, they would be utterly desperate by now, but you must not despair!]
[You must not die. You still have ambitions unfulfilled, sins uncommitted, you must not fall yet!]
[A sudden demon mission has been updated!]
[Mission: Survive (In Progress)]
[No matter how humiliating or disgraceful, as long as there is a sliver of hope, you must persevere in disgrace until that righteous strongman completely gives up their intent to kill you!]
[Mission progress: Survival Probability (50%/100%)]
[Mission reward: Random Opportunity *1]
Listening to the urgent system prompts and the swiftly updating task information on the system panel, Su Yuan was a bit dumbfounded.
What the heck?
An extremely dangerous righteous strongman is coming for me?
This, this can’t be true! I haven’t done anything that terrible!
But suddenly, Su Yuan thought of a possibility.
Could the righteous strongman the system referred to be the one who could show up anytime at Taihua High School, a formidable presence from one of the top ten elite Immortal Dao academies?
Although he wasn’t yet sure of the strongman’s background, anyone whom Taihua High School treated with such respect and high pay must not be an ordinary top ten graduate.
Their cultivation might have already reached Foundation Establishment Peak, or possibly... a Master Golden Core!
And if this strongman happens to have the means to recognize demonic cultivators and finds the demonic choir in the cafeteria, they might indeed come specifically for me.
Su Yuan instantly broke into a cold sweat.
Fortunately, with the Brahma Purifying Demon Heart doing its work, Su Yuan’s mind cleared a bit.
Thinking it over carefully, there really wasn’t much to fear.
When he was roasting goose using the Corpse Refining Technique, didn’t he anticipate the day his demon identity would be discovered?
Although he often used demon techniques to craft uncertified small pills, spy on others’ fate, tempt the Righteous Saintess to fall, and employ the Corpse Refining Technique for roasting goose, he considered himself a good person.
Even if that righteous strongman came looking for him, at worst, they would just find his awakened Magic Vein, and the method he used for roasting goose seemed a bit odd.
Is that a crime?
Even taking a step further, even if that righteous strongman couldn’t stand a speck of dirt and insisted on making trouble for me, could they really slap me to death?
This is a civilized Cultivation Society, regardless of being a Golden Core Cultivator or even a Nascent Soul Divinity Transformation, you still need to follow the law.
After understanding all this, Su Yuan breathed a long sigh of relief.
This goddamn system loves to exaggerate and dramatize. I can’t allow it to scare me.
What needs to be done next is to figure out how to deal with that righteous strongman.
Despite not knowing what this "random opportunity" as a task reward was, it was important to secure it first.
Su Yuan looked around the cafeteria window, trying to spot the righteous strongman.
But after looking for a long time, he found nothing.
And just when he was perplexed, suddenly, a small, pure, white hand rose up from in front of the meal window, giving Su Yuan a fright.
Looking down, a white-haired, expressionless, and doll-like Lolita stood sprucely there, her stature below the height of the meal window.
Her pair of clear and bright golden eyes stared unblinkingly at Su Yuan, leaving him momentarily dazed.
Whose child is this?
[Ding-Dong! You have directly confronted that extremely dangerous righteous strongman, and each step you take from here must proceed with caution!]
Hearing the sudden system notification, Su Yuan fell into prolonged silence.
Righteous strongman? Extremely dangerous?
It’s this white-haired girl?
After dealing with the system for so long, Su Yuan believed he had a grasp on the system’s quirks.
But once again, this annoying system refreshed the lower limit of his understanding.
In the past, you exaggerated the mission descriptions, randomly added drama for yourself, slandered me, a well-behaved young man, and I tolerated it. But now you’ve gone to the extent of recognizing this harmless white-haired Lolita as a righteous strongman?
How would a little girl, barely grown, defeat me? Is she gonna kill me with her cuteness?
Answer me!
