Urban Cultivation with a Demonic System-Chapter 389 - 322: The Devious Brother Who Swindled the Little Loli’s New Year’s Money!
"Miss Long Bai, what are you dazing around for? Quickly continue summoning the Sinful Dragons."
After dealing with the Night Demon Beast, Su Yuan looked up at the ice-haired Lolita dazing in mid-air and urged her.
Long Bai snapped back to reality, her little face showing some anger:
"Su Yuan! Why are you so skilled at this!"
"The Night Demon Beast is clearly your demon pet, why did you kill it so casually? Are you really a human, and not a bloodthirsty fiend from the Demon Race?"
"Tell me, just how many demons have you killed?"
Su Yuan was slightly taken aback and instinctively said:
"Do you... remember how many slices of bread you’ve eaten?"
Hiss—
With these words, an extreme chill rushed to Long Bai’s heart.
What a terrifying human... This is not just any ordinary human, but a demon among demons, the ’untouchable’ her biological father and two brothers had repeatedly warned her about!
Thinking of this, the ice-haired girl couldn’t help but look at Su Yuan like he was an insect, silently putting some distance between them.
Hey, hey, I can hear your inner thoughts!
A bunch of black lines appeared on Su Yuan’s forehead.
What do you mean by ’untouchable’?
What did demons ever do to you? Did they eat your family’s rice?
Su Yuan was shaking with anger!
And just as Su Yuan was about to verbally greet the biological father of the ice-haired Lolita, Chen Nuoyi spoke up first, quickly explaining the origin of the Night Demon Beast and other Wasted Beasts.
After listening to the explanation, Long Bai finally snapped out of her Spiny Dragon state.
Turns out they were mentally ill members of the Demon Race, and with a history of harming and even killing people.
In her biological father’s view, such demons, who harm others for no reason, were even worse than ’untouchables’.
Her biological father would definitely kill such a demon if he encountered one.
That Su Yuan was able to trap their souls in the Ten Thousand Souls Banner was already quite merciful to these mad demons.
Although the method of handling the corpses was somewhat abstract.
Reluctantly... it could just about be accepted.
Long Bai tried hard to convince herself not to see Su Yuan as some sort of arthropod.
After all, since the Spiritual Energy Revival, he was the most likely person to unlock the Dragon King inheritance and set her free.
The ice-haired Lolita worked to calm her complicated mood and swiftly summoned a hundred Sinful Dragons for Su Yuan to slaughter.
Su Yuan waved his hand and directly summoned twenty Wasted Beasts with 100% Enslavement Level, cultivation at Foundation Establishment Late Stage.
The two sides engaged in a fierce battle, quickly ending in an absolute victory for the Wasted Beasts.
Immediately afterward, the Wasted Beasts, controlled by resentful energy, turned around and attacked Su Yuan.
Su Yuan donned the Ancient Sword Armor, activated the Blood Corruption Sword, and together with Chen Nuoyi, quickly eliminated the Wasted Beasts.
Their souls were collected into the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, the resentful energy settled into the Corpse Mountain within the Tribulation Moon Pearl, and the Dragon Blood was refined by Bai Ling as nourishment for her transformation.
In fact, when the resentful energy of the Sinful Dragons attached to the Wasted Beasts, Su Yuan would also suffer from the energy’s corruption while battling them.
However... perhaps because he was often connected to the Corpse Mountain, frequently infused with vast resentful power, Su Yuan was nearly immune to the Sinful Dragon’s resentful energy.
Had he not wanted the Dragon Blood from the Sinful Dragons, he would have charged in with his weapon already.
Chen Nuoyi, bearing the complete Dragon King Bloodline, naturally had high resistance to the Sinful Dragon’s power, thus the Wasted Beasts didn’t inflict the expected damage.
After repeating the same operation several times, all two hundred Sinful Dragons were wiped out.
It took less than twenty minutes.
And Bai Ling, who absorbed the Dragon Blood of two hundred Sinful Dragons, happily went into hibernation.
Su Yuan estimated that once Bai Ling awoke from this hibernation, her previously severed foundation could regrow and even progress further.
Even with the body of a Blood Beast, she might be able to return to the Golden Core stage.
Heh heh, I wonder how Old Deng from Taibai will reward him when he hears this good news.
"Miss Long Bai, are there any more Sinful Dragons? Two hundred is simply not enough fun!"
"There are no more! Do you think my family’s Sinful Dragons are for wholesale?"
Long Bai replied unhappily, pouting so much you could hang an oil jug from her lips.
Watching Su Yuan turn a life-and-death challenge into a reward session was really annoying!
Can’t you be a bit more passionate? What about the friendship and bonds you supposedly have with your demon pets? Why do they all vanish when it comes to you?
Su Yuan regretfully shook his head and once again asked with an expectant look:
"Miss Long Bai, since we’ve already passed the second stage, shouldn’t the stage rewards be served now?"
Long Bai snorted lightly, waved her small hand, and three lines of golden spiritual runes appeared before Su Yuan and Chen Nuoyi.
[Reward One: Incomplete Dragon King Bloodline: Effect omitted.]
[Reward Two: Choose one treasure from the Dragon Palace Treasure Vault.]
[Reward Three: Gain some early information about the next stage, along with seven days of preparation time.]
Su Yuan and Chen Nuoyi looked over the three rewards.
The incomplete Dragon King Bloodline was naturally ruled out.
Out of caution, Chen Nuoyi suggested choosing Reward Three.
However, after receiving Su Yuan’s transmission and knowing that Su Yuan could eavesdrop on Long Bai’s inner thoughts, she suddenly had an epiphany and eliminated the third reward option.
She even entertained the idea that Su Yuan had managed to find Long Bai’s sleeping quarters through eavesdropping on inner thoughts.
In any case, among the three options, selecting a Dragon Palace treasure was the best choice for them.
"Miss Long Bai, is it really possible to only choose one Dragon Palace treasure? Can’t we choose a pair? Or a pile?"
Su Yuan asked expectantly.
The ice-haired lolita rolled her eyes charmingly and said in a businesslike tone:
"You can only pick one! Even for paired items like rings or earrings, you can still only take one!"
As she spoke, the ice-haired lolita muttered to herself:
"Even though I might be with one of you in the future, I’m not going to hand over my treasures easily!"
"Daddy told me that if I carelessly give my little treasury to others, I could be swindled and quickly abandoned!"
Listening to the ice-haired lolita’s inner thoughts, Su Yuan had to admit that Purple Gold Old Deng’s advice was absolutely correct.
Of course, don’t misunderstand; Su Yuan is definitely not the kind of person who would take a little girl’s lollipop and leave.
He’s the kind of person who, under the guise of ’safekeeping’, would take the little girl’s gift money and give her a lollipop in return.
But to be cautious, Su Yuan decided to listen to Long Bai’s inner thoughts first and confirm the content of the third challenge.
If the third challenge required some preparation, they would have to choose the third reward.
Immediately, Su Yuan asked in a tone that would coax a little girl into revealing her home address:
"Miss Long Bai, is the third challenge difficult? Do you think the two of us can pass it or not?"
Long Bai: "..."
Caw! The humanoid wants a title!
"No comment!"
Long Bai, like last time, said with a straight little face.
However, although the ice-haired lolita said this, her heart was quite honest.
"The third challenge is about giving up, and the challenger and the guardian have to endure a lot of hardship... I hope these two can hold on."
Su Yuan suddenly understood.
Hardship?
That’s the last thing he’s afraid of. The Demon Technique·Finger Body has a function to store pain, you know.
Such trivial hardship doesn’t require any prior preparation!
Su Yuan stopped hesitating and decisively chose the second reward!
The Dragon Palace Treasure Vault! Let’s go!
He already started imagining whether he should mimic Sun Wukong and try all the weapons in the Dragon Palace, finally picking a Stabilizing Needle as his spoil.
But just as this thought emerged, Su Yuan felt a slight chill on his neck, as if suggesting that if he dared to stray, he would be met by Chi Yuan Sword like a lumberjack’s axe.
Looks like picking weapon-type treasures in the Dragon Race Treasure Vault isn’t an option.
Long Bai wasn’t surprised by their choice. Without saying much, she led them onward.
After the ice-haired lolita opened a large door hidden in the stomach lining, she led them through a series of twists and turns, soon arriving at a grand and magnificent golden hall.
Su Yuan glanced at the map and saw that this was likely the dragon’s heart.
This proved that the Dragon Race is indeed crazy about wealth, putting treasures at their heart even after death.
Entering the hall, the vast and overwhelming treasure mountain dazzled Su Yuan and Chen Nuoyi.
Upon seeing these two human bumpkins, who looked like they’d never seen the world, Long Bai, who had often been bested by Su Yuan, put her hands on her waist and showed a proud little expression.
"You can only choose one! If you take more, I’ll get angry!"
The ice-haired lolita’s tone was filled with a conniving little demon flavor, an attitude that screamed ’not for sale, just to tantalize’, making you want to spank her.
Of course, with Su Yuan’s current abilities, he definitely couldn’t spank Long Bai.
After all, even though the girl was dead, she could still effortlessly control the dragon corpse, which was refined into a flesh and blood treasure.
Her actual combat power, if not comparable to when she was alive, could at least contend with an average Nascent Soul cultivator. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
Not to mention that the dragon corpse likely housed the fallback plans left by the ancient Divinity Transformation Purple Gold Dragon Venerable. Messing around would surely end badly.
Unless he sneaked back to the sleeping quarters and spanked her when her human body had no awareness.
Of course, currently, there was no condition to return to the sleeping quarters.
Su Yuan collected his thoughts and looked again at the vast treasure mountain, finding himself at a bit of a loss.
With so many treasures, how could he tell which ones were good or bad?
The stupid system didn’t even have an appraisal function.
He stepped forward, and with Chen Nuoyi, casually approached a treasure pile, planning to search through them.
And at that moment, Long Bai’s inner voice suddenly spoke in Su Yuan’s ear:
"Hehe, mortal men do have no taste, out of so many treasure mountains, he actually picked the lowest tier one."
"Go ahead and pick. Even if you choose forever, you’ll never find the real treasure!"
"A noble princess like me, who keeps secrets so well, would never tell you that the real treasure is hidden in a box on the beam."
Su Yuan’s eyes lit up.
Indeed, with a ten-year-old’s mentality, she can’t keep secrets! The real treasure is on the beam, very well, now it’s mine! Mwahaha!
