Su Yuan: Whose child is this?

At two in the morning, Su Yuan and Chen Nuoyi finished their discussion on the Fury Heart Attack combat mental method.

"Su Yuan, your speed in grasping this mental method is faster than mine. Logically, with your level of comprehension, you shouldn't have been stuck at a mid-tier level in class before."

"Could it be that you were hiding your true talent?"

Chen Nuoyi was amazed by the simple and clear way Su Yuan had just explained the mental method, and she couldn't help but feel curious about the change in his comprehension.

When she taught him martial arts before, she hadn't seen him learn this quickly.

To this, Su Yuan could only laugh it off:

"Maybe my talent for the Dao Heart is quite prominent, which is why I'm faster at learning mental methods."

Chen Nuoyi didn't doubt him. After spending these days together, she had discovered that Su Yuan's Dao Heart was indeed surprisingly firm.

She didn't ask any more questions. After nodding to say goodbye, she steered her Shared Flying Sword and headed home to rest.

Su Yuan stood on the rooftop for a while, attempting to circulate the upgraded Fury Heart Attack. He discovered that his understanding of this mental method had already reached the minor achievement stage.

Reaching great achievement before the start of the Martial Arts Competition would not be a problem.

However, he still needed to study how to unleash the full power of this mental method during the competition.

The next day at noon.

Deliverymen were locked in a battle of wits with the school security guards at the school gate, delivering takeout orders into the hands of the students.

Every inch of the school wall had become a contested territory between the deliverymen and the security guards, with the two factions fighting tooth and nail.

Just as the security guards were being held up by the deliverymen, a White-haired Loli, whose skin glowed with a pale radiance, appeared at the school gate without anyone noticing.

Even though she was excessively cute, for some reason, no one around her seemed to notice her presence.

The White-haired Loli raised her brilliant golden eyes and gazed at Taihua High School before her, her delicate brows slightly furrowed:

"So small and so shabby."

But immediately, her small brow smoothed out:

"However... the Devilish Qi is like an abyss."

Her small head turned slightly, fixing on a building within the campus. From her perspective, the sky above this building was already filled with cold, pitch-black devilish mist.

"To think a Demon Lord is hiding in Taihua High School. I... I came to the right place."

A faint blush appeared on the White-haired Loli's cheeks. She couldn't help but stick out her small, clove-like tongue to lick her jelly-like, crystal-clear pink lips, then trotted into the campus.

It was as if she were walking through an empty land.

Inside the cafeteria, Su Yuan, having sold a full one hundred and fifty-five portions of Dragon Scale Roasted Goose, wiped the fine beads of sweat from his forehead with the satisfaction of a farmer after a bountiful harvest.

Although he hadn't completely sold out the two Dragon Scale Roasted Geese in a single lunch period, he should be able to finish them off by the evening.

Thinking about earning a two-thousand-four-hundred-yuan cut in one go today, both Su Yuan and Chen Nuoyi were overcome with joy.

But just as Su Yuan began to pack up his stall, preparing to enjoy his own lunch, a "ding-dong" sound echoed in his mind.

[Attention: An extremely dangerous righteous expert is approaching you. This is a terrifying existence who hates evil with a passion and searches the world for demon lords. With your current strength, you would not survive a single move from them.]

[If you were an ordinary demonic cultivator, you would be in total despair right now, but you must not despair!]

[You cannot die. You still have great ambitions unfulfilled and sins yet to be committed; you must never fall here!]

[Emergency Demon Lord Mission updated!]

[Mission: Survive (In Progress)]

[Even if you are disheveled or humiliated, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, you must endure the disgrace and survive until that righteous expert completely abandons their intent to kill you!]

[Task Progress: Survival Probability (50%/100%)]

[Mission Reward: Random Opportunity *1]

Listening to the urgent system prompts in his ears and the information rapidly updating on the System Panel, Su Yuan was stunned.

What the hell?

An extremely dangerous righteous expert is coming for me?

This—this can't be right! I haven't done anything heinous!

But suddenly, a possibility occurred to Su Yuan.

Could the righteous expert the system referred to be the powerhouse from the Top Ten Immortal Dao Academies who might visit Taihua High School at any moment?

Although he didn't know the details of that expert, anyone who could be treated with such hospitality and hired with such a high salary by Taihua High School would certainly not be an ordinary graduate of the Top Ten.

That expert's Cultivation Base might have already reached Foundation Establishment Peak, or perhaps they could even be a... Golden Core True Person!

And if that expert happened to possess a method to identify demonic cultivators and detected the dense Devilish Qi in the cafeteria, it was entirely possible they had come specifically for him.

Su Yuan immediately broke into a cold sweat.

Fortunately, as his Pure Devil Heart took effect, his mind cleared a little.

Thinking carefully, he realized he didn't seem to have anything to fear.

When he used the Corpse Refining Method to roast the geese, hadn't he already anticipated the day his identity as a demon lord would be discovered?

Although he spent his days refining Small Medicinal Pills without safety certifications using demonic arts, spying on others' fates, seducing the Righteous Path Saintess into corruption, and even using corpse-refining techniques to make roast goose, he was still a Good Person.

Even if that Righteous Path powerhouse came knocking, at most, they would only discover that his awakened Dharma lineage and his method of making roast goose were a bit unorthodox.

Was that against the law?

Taking a step back, even if that Righteous Path powerhouse couldn't tolerate a grain of sand in their eyes and insisted on causing him trouble, surely they couldn't just slap him to death, right?

This was the Civilized Cultivation Society. Regardless of whether you were a Golden Core Cultivator, even a Nascent Soul to Spirit Transmutation expert had to abide by the law.

Having figured all this out, Su Yuan let out a long sigh of relief.

This Dog System was always prone to exaggeration; he couldn't let himself be scared by it.

Now, it was time to figure out how to deal with that Righteous Path powerhouse.

He didn't know what this "Random Opportunity" reward was, but he should get his hands on it first regardless.

Su Yuan looked around in front of the cafeteria window, trying to find that Righteous Path powerhouse.

But after searching for a long time, he found nothing.

Just as he was feeling puzzled, suddenly, a small, flawless, and delicate white hand rose up from the serving window, giving Su Yuan a start.

Looking down, a pink-cheeked and jade-carved White-haired Loli, who wasn't even as tall as the serving window, stood there prettily.

That pair of cold, bright golden eyes stared at Su Yuan without blinking, leaving him stunned.

Whose kid was this?

[Ding! You have come face-to-face with that extremely dangerous Righteous Path powerhouse. Every step you take from here on out must be taken with the utmost caution!]

Listening to the system notification that suddenly rang in his ears, Su Yuan fell into a long silence.

Righteous Path powerhouse? Extremely dangerous?

This White-haired Loli?

Having spent so much time with the system, Su Yuan believed he had figured out its true colors.

Yet, this damn system had once again lowered the bar of his understanding.

You've exaggerated the descriptions of various missions in the past, added unnecessary drama, and slandered me—a model youth—and I endured it. But now you've gone even further, mistaking a harmless White-haired Loli for a Righteous Path powerhouse?

How could a little girl who hadn't even grown her hair out finish me off? Was she going to rely on being cute to death-stare me?

Answer me!
