In an era where everyone is cultivating immortality, the system wants me to become a demon?

Chapter 6 This should be considered...human nature? (Please continue reading!!!)
As it turns out, taking shortcuts and using tricks never ends well.

However, the system's criticism also indirectly showed that Su Yuan's actions were not bad, but rather a great thing, so Su Yuan didn't feel guilty.

Although I couldn't complete the system task with this abandoned takeout order, it's not a big problem. I can just deliver a few more orders tonight.

Su Yuan shook his head, stopped thinking about it, and stepped onto the shared flying sword to leave.

Just then, a sword light suddenly pierced through the rain from afar, attracting everyone's attention.

Su Yuan looked in the direction where the sword light appeared and saw a simply dressed girl with delicate features rushing toward the dilapidated neighborhood with a murderous aura.

The girl's delicate face was cold, and an aura that Su Yuan was extremely familiar with surrounded her.

It is called the resentment of working people.

It feels like this resentment could resurrect ten evil sword immortals.

To Su Yuan's surprise, the girl in front of him was actually an acquaintance.

His classmate, Chen Nuoyi, was one of the top three students in Taihua High School, the top student in the class, and also the class monitor of Su Yuan's class.

Su Yuan was filled with awe.

This is a prodigy who scored a whopping 685 on the monthly exam, a higher being with reproductive isolation from this mere 550-point little Karami!
"But why is Chen in this old neighborhood?"

Su Yuan found it somewhat strange.

He always felt that the sacred number one should drive a luxury car and live in a big villa, and Chen Nuoyi's usual aloof temperament was no different from that of a rich young lady on TV.

As she was pondering, Chen Nuoyi suddenly stopped in front of an apartment building, her beautiful eyes scanning the steps as if searching for something.

When she searched and searched but couldn't find it, the murderous aura on her pretty face grew even stronger!

Su Yuan: "..."

Why does the apartment building where Chen Nuoyi lives look so familiar?
If I remember correctly, wasn't that the place where I found the food that had been put together?

Could she be looking for that shared meal?
Su Yuan's heart tightened slightly. He glanced at the food being piled up and down in the sewage of the trash can, and then scanned the customer's name at the end of the receipt.

Chen Nuoyi.

They recoiled as if struck by lightning.

Ouch—my family is drenched in sweat!
Although Su Yuan believed he had done a good deed, he was still a little afraid when he saw the increasingly murderous girl not far away.

If the holy number one discovers that I am the murderer, will she kill me with a sword in a fit of rage?

Su Yuan swallowed hard, slowly inching his way out, ready to slip away.

It would have been better if he hadn't moved. As soon as he did, Chen Nuoyi immediately turned her gaze over and was slightly taken aback when she saw Su Yuan's face.

"Squad leader, what a coincidence..."

After being discovered, Su Yuan greeted them somewhat awkwardly.

With a flash of her flying sword, Chen Nuoyi appeared before Su Yuan in an instant, her voice as clear and cold as a winter lake:

"Su Yuan, did you see the takeout order placed at the entrance of that building just now?"

Su Yuan nervously held the trash can containing the neatly arranged food behind him, shook his head, and said:

"I didn't notice. I just delivered a takeout order here a minute ago."

Chen Nuoyi nodded slightly, the murderous intent in her beautiful eyes growing even stronger:

"Damn delivery thief, don't let me catch you!"

I was forced to work overtime at my part-time job today, which resulted in her not returning home even after the food delivery was made. I also got soaked in the rain on the way back. I was hoping to have a hot meal when I got home, but the food I was looking forward to was stolen!
One trouble after another piled up, causing Chen Nuoyi's mental state to completely explode!
The boiling murderous aura made Su Yuan's expression increasingly unnatural.

He could lie without batting an eye to Uncle Wang, the security guard, but he felt an innate fear of the class's top student. Perhaps this was the power of 685 points over 550.

Besides, we were in the wrong to begin with, so since the victim has come to us, we should offer some compensation.

Su Yuan cautiously suggested:

"Squad leader, it's okay if the takeout is lost. If you're hungry, how about we go grab something to eat nearby?"

Chen Nuoyi was startled again, looked up at the person in front of her, and noticed the unnaturalness in Su Yuan's expression. She asked suspiciously:

"Why do I get the feeling that you're a little guilty? Like you've done something wrong."

Su Yuan: ...A woman's sixth sense? How terrifying!
We have to make up an excuse!

In this critical moment, Su Yuan's brain worked at an unprecedented speed, and in the blink of an eye, he came up with a pretext:
"Well, it's normal to feel guilty when I see you because I made a mistake before."

I used to sneak snacks and play on my phone a lot when I was in school, so it's normal to feel guilty when I see the class monitor.

"You made a mistake unintentionally?"

When this seemingly random explanation came out, Chen Nuoyi didn't immediately connect it to matters of class affairs. Instead, the barrage comments that often appeared when she was scrolling through short videos not long ago flashed through her mind.

I made mistakes towards *** when I was a child, and I made mistakes towards *** before.

It's human nature, I completely agree. It's something that happens easily, understandable, and forgivable. But I've never heard of such a thing before, Bush Gomen...

Out of curiosity, she searched for what these comments were saying, and then a whole new world opened up for her.

And now, a similar statement has appeared in reality, and the person in question is actually himself?!
Chen Nuoyi's heart skipped a beat, and the murderous aura in her beautiful eyes lessened considerably.

She paused for a moment, then hesitated before saying:
"This should be considered...human nature?"

Su Yuan: "???"

After a full ten seconds of mental blankness, Su Yuan finally pieced together the cause and effect from his own words and Chen Nuoyi's reply, leaving him utterly speechless.

Not buddy!

Squad leader, you have such thick eyebrows and big eyes, how come you watch those kinds of videos?

Damn it, I'm making things worse by trying to explain myself!
So you're just like that, right? You're quite confident in yourself!

But what you said isn't wrong, the girl in front of you is indeed good-looking, hey!
Su Yuan had to make his point clearer before Chen Nuoyi realized she had misunderstood.

This almost made her lose her composure!

Chen Nuoyi, you can't keep watching these trash videos, because they've corrupted your mind!
Because of Su Yuan's interruption, Chen Nuoyi also forgot about the fact that her food had been stolen.

She politely declined Su Yuan's invitation, said goodbye, and entered the apartment building.

Watching the class monitor's figure disappear from sight, Su Yuan finally breathed a sigh of relief and continued delivering food in the rain.

By evening, the showers caused by the passing water dragon had long since stopped, and Su Yuan had suffered another "food loss".

[Ding dong, the beginner demon quest has been completed]

The mission reward "Vajra Demon Heart" has been issued!

[Effects of the Pure Land Demon Heart: The mind remains forever pure and immaculate, greatly improving concentration when doing anything!]

The moment Su Yuan obtained the Heart of the Pure Land Demon, he felt his mind become very calm, and all the chaotic and useless thoughts in his mind were dispelled.

This state of unparalleled focus was something Su Yuan could only barely achieve after meditating cross-legged for more than half an hour.

Well, from now on, when I'm working, my boss won't have to worry about me slacking off anymore.

Damn it, is the system trying to make him a beast of burden?
