If we lure Chen Nuoyi into the abyss, there's a chance her father, the Dragon King, will notice.
But Su Yuan trusts the system's quirks more.
Eternal Fall into the Abyss? Haha, to the system, even working hard in a side job can be considered neglecting one's duties, and not submitting assignments is seen as succumbing to the influence of the Demon Dao.
According to this standard, a one hundred percent Saint Fall Level will definitely not cause Chen Nuoyi to drastically change her character, go on a killing spree, or engage in acts of evil.
This way, no one will notice this Righteous Saintess's descent, and the Dragon King won't come looking for trouble.
Thinking about this, Su Yuan starts pondering how to complete this task.
How exactly should one guide the Righteous Saintess to a completely fallen end?
Su Yuan thinks for a long time but can't come up with anything conclusive, so he decides to let nature take its course.
Since the fate of "Eternal Fall into the Abyss" has already appeared, even if Chen Nuoyi instinctively tries to avoid it, she will eventually encounter the opportunity that lures her to fall. He just needs to seize the chance when it comes.
"Su Yuan, why did you eat so little this meal? Do you have something on your mind?"
Chen Nuoyi turns her head to the boy beside her, who is thoughtfully rubbing his chin, and asks curiously.
Su Yuan is slightly stunned, then explains:
"I usually eat one meal to last the whole day. I ate so much at noon that I can't eat at night."
The earlier performance at the buffet was Su Yuan's regular meal portion, but considering he will receive a new Blue Pill in the future, he might as well give Chen Nuoyi a heads-up.
Chen Nuoyi slightly nods her forehead: "That's too bad. There was so much meat in the restaurant."
Su Yuan: "Not talking about me, did you eat enough?"
Chen Nuoyi pats her flat belly and says somewhat embarrassedly:
"Actually, I'm still a bit hungry."
Su Yuan: "..."
Ah, really, eating for two hours and still not full... she must be a foodie, right?
I'm sorry for grilling the meat too slowly to let the class president enjoy it fully.
Seeing Su Yuan's thoughts, Chen Nuoyi quickly explains:
"I-I really am not a glutton; I just smelled something delicious from somewhere, and unconsciously started craving."
Glutton and crave may not be synonyms but are close, aren't they?
Su Yuan helplessly makes a snide remark, but then he indeed vaguely smells a fragrance, a rich meat aroma wrapped in the scent of fruit wood.
Following this fragrance, the two find themselves at a barbecue restaurant on a nearby street.
In front of the shop window hangs a row of roast duck, roast goose, various barbecue pork, suckling pig, preserved meat, and sausages.
The crimson roast goose dripping with grease draws particular attention, making even Su Yuan crave some.
But then, knowledge of the Ancient Corpse Refining suddenly surfaces, matching the techniques used on the roast duck and goose in front with those of Corpse Refinement.
These so-called barbecues suddenly turn into chunks of meat radiating crimson gloss in Su Yuan's eyes!
Chunks of meat!
Alright, the appetite instantly disappears.
Su Yuan feels as if he suddenly entered sage mode, becoming disinterested and even wanting to leave.
But noticing Chen Nuoyi's bright gaze from the corner of his eye, Su Yuan thinks for a moment and asks:
"Want to try some?"
"No, there's no need."
The girl leaves the tempting roast duck and goose with great effort, murmuring:
"Although it smells wonderful, I have a feeling something bad will happen if I get close to those things."
Su Yuan: "Is that so, then let's not eat... that's fine!"
Something bad will happen? Has Chen Nuoyi sensed anything?
Could it be related to the fate of "Eternal Fall into the Abyss"?
So the question is, does barbecue have anything to do with falling? Even by the system's judgment standards, righteous people are free to eat meat, aren't they?
No... it can't be that simple.
A thought gradually forms in Su Yuan's mind, this idea is incredibly bold, even frightening himself the moment it emerges!
And after understanding everything, Su Yuan can almost determine that Chen Nuoyi's fate of "Eternal Fall into the Abyss" indeed hinges on this possibility.
"I see, as long as I follow through, I can not only complete this time-limited task but also obtain a stable income channel! Hahaha, I'm simply a genius!"
"No no no, this is beyond genius, I am practically a demon lord!"
Excited by these thoughts, Su Yuan even can't help but laugh towards the sky, sounding particularly jarring on the empty street, making Chen Nuoyi shiver.
"Su Yuan, are you... have you gone mad?"
"Of course not."
Su Yuan shakes his head, seriously asking the girl in front:
"Class Prez, I don't plan to deliver anymore tomorrow. I've got a better gig waiting for me, would you want to join me?"
This suggestion makes Chen Nuoyi's eyes brighten, she nods vigorously: "Of course I want to!"
But then again, she hesitates:
"But can I really handle it? I got caught by security when delivering."
Su Yuan smiles slightly:
"The job I plan to do next definitely requires your involvement."
Hearing this, Chen Nuoyi feels flattered, and after a moment of silence, she seriously says:
"Understood, but before that, I must tutor you properly to repay you for helping me earn so much money."
"Ah yes, tutoring is necessary."
Only now does Su Yuan remember that besides working, he still needs to study.
Suppressing his excitement, he first takes out his phone and places an order for a bunch of items intended to lure the Righteous Saintess to fall today, then asks:
"For the tutoring location, how about my place? My apartment is quite large, and it's just me and Chu Lanxi renting together, so we won't disturb anyone."
"Alright."
Chen Nuoyi nods, not feeling anything amiss.
After all, she's at the Qi Cultivation Eighth Layer, while Su Yuan is just at Qi Cultivation Fifth Layer, there's no way Su Yuan could eat her up?
Though proposing the idea makes Su Yuan a bit nervous, could Chen Nuoyi's Dragon King father charge over to his apartment?
But it's merely regular tutoring; he won't do anything else, should be harmless.
Ten minutes later, at the apartment door.
Su Yuan takes out his keys and opens the door, the living room lights are off, and a figure sits on the couch, face subtly illuminated by the glow of the television.
Hearing the door, this face slowly turns towards the entrance, with a grievance-filled expression.
"You no longer hide, you are directly bringing a woman home, what do you take me, the first spouse, for?"
Chu Lanxi says hauntingly.
Chen Nuoyi blinks, turns to Su Yuan and asks:
"Is this your... boyfriend?"
Su Yuan: "..."
Come on, sis, don't believe everything you hear, okay?
