Urban Cultivation with a Demonic System

After school in the afternoon, Su Yuan, holding a package, enthusiastically headed to the canteen kitchen with Chen Nuoyi to report in.

"The Dragon Scale Goose is kept in the yard behind the kitchen, you two can handle it by yourselves."

Chef Li smiled as he handed each of them an apron.

After thanking him, Su Yuan and Chen Nuoyi went to the backyard, where they saw a square yard of about 300 square meters filled with various ingredients.

There was a 2,000-pound Iron Mountain Boar with a size resembling an ordinary pig, with amazing body density; a Gossipy Dragon with sharp, fierce teeth and bright feathers; and a Dry Puffy Fish that could live on land, with a prickly body the size of a basketball.

And without exception, these ingredients were all spirit beasts of the Qi Cultivation Stage.

Their flesh and blood either helped students cultivate or enhanced their physique. Food made from them were the most expensive dishes sold in the school canteen.

Cooking these spirit beasts into delicacies was quite a severe test for the chefs.

One common problem was that the chef might not be able to defeat his own ingredients. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Su Yuan glanced toward a large iron cage in the corner of the yard. Inside the cage were four geese as tall as a person. Each goose’s feathers were shimmering with a silvery-gray sheen under the sunlight, resembling tightly arranged dragon scales.

This is how the Dragon Scale Goose got its name.

The aura exuded by these big geese was at least at the Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer, with the largest and fiercest looking goose having an aura fluctuation reaching the Qi Cultivation Late Stage.

Su Yuan estimated the gap between himself and the geese and finally arrived at a very fair conclusion.

His combat power was no match for a goose.

Fortunately, he was prepared and brought in reinforcements.

"Class monitor, it’s your turn! Catch the fiercest goose in the cage for me! But remember not to kill it outright, I want to handle it myself!"

Su Yuan said to the girl beside him, whose expression was tense.

"Okay."

Chen Nuoyi nodded solemnly, her entire demeanor changing, like a hunting tigress, as she quickly headed to the iron cage containing the Dragon Scale Goose.

Click—

The iron cage opened, and the four geese seemed to see the light of freedom, each stretching their necks wanting to rush out.

However, a slender figure blocked their path and reached for the strongest one among them.

Seeing the slender hand reaching for it, the goose’s eyes flashed fiercely, opening its mouth to bite down hard with its sharp teeth like a shark’s.

The seemingly fragile, white hand did not dodge, allowing the big mouth to bite, tear, and pull on it.

Yet no matter how fiercely the goose bit, it couldn’t leave even a trace of a white mark on the hand.

"Honk—"

Chen Nuoyi swiftly reached out, grabbing the goose’s neck. It let out a cry like its last gasp, dragged out of the cage amidst the terrified gazes of its three companions.

The remaining three geese immediately scrambled to shrink back, trembling like quails without a hint of their previous arrogance.

Dragging the goose, which was a size larger than her, Chen Nuoyi brought it to Su Yuan and softly asked:

"Coach, what’s next?"

Su Yuan didn’t speak but instead carefully examined the goose in front of him as if he were inspecting a piece of art.

Only after a while did he snap back to reality, smilingly opening his package to extract several 20-centimeter-long nails, exuding a cold aura.

The style of the nails faintly resembled coffin nails.

Curiously observing the nails, the girl clearly hadn’t realized that they were on the brink of hell.

Then Su Yuan spoke softly:

"Class monitor, please hold the goose’s head steady. Next, I’ll use my family’s secret roasted goose technique for preliminary treatment of the ingredient."

"Okay."

Chen Nuoyi obediently held the goose’s head firmly to the ground so that no matter how much the Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer Dragon Scale Goose flapped, its head couldn’t move an inch.

Su Yuan aimed the nails at the goose’s skull, pulling out a hammer from the package. Gathering his qi in his dantian, he consolidated all the strength in his muscles and tendons into a single force, delivering it into his palm, and hammered in one blow!

Bang—

Accompanied by a dull thud, the 20-centimetre-long nail was hammered into the goose’s head, disappearing into its feathers.

Strangely, despite the nail, no blood emerged from the Dragon Scale Goose. Though its flapping gradually ceased, its eyes still emitted an eerie glow, as if it hadn’t truly died.

This was expected, for in the Immortal Realm, death is defined as the soul leaving the body. Though the goose’s head was pierced, its soul had not left its body.

Su Yuan’s nailed blow was a secret technique in Ancient Corpse Refining—the Soul Suppressing Nail!

By the technique of the Soul Suppressing Nail, nailing into the target’s body directly affects their soul, preventing it from leaving! This was the first step in corpse refinement!

Indeed, this was Su Yuan’s plan to lead Chen Nuoyi to absolute depravity!

To have her learn the evil skill of Ancient Corpse Refining.

But here was the problem: how to get the Righteous Saintess Chen Nuoyi to learn corpse refinement?

Su Yuan’s inspiration came from seeing the roasted meat shop last night!

Seeing those roasted geese, roasted ducks, and suckling pigs, Su Yuan found that the roasting preparation methods overlapped with those of ancient corpse refining!

Having thoroughly mastered ancient corpse refinement and becoming a master, he could easily pose as a master of roasted meats!

That’s why he chose to apply at the school canteen, so that once employed, he could reasonably teach the Righteous Saintess corpse refinement...ahem, roasted meats!

Saintess learns corpse refinement

Creates a goose with an aroma spreading ten miles

Counts money until the hand cramps

The most depraved!

Not only does this have the saintess learn the Demon Dao’s evil techniques, but she becomes a slave to money; no wonder Chen Nuoyi’s fate today was "Eternal Fall into the Abyss"!

Not being depraved would be a ghost!

Su Yuan exhaled a turbid breath and slowly said:

"Class monitor, next is the bleeding, de-feathering, and removing the organs. You’re not squeamish about blood, are you?"

Chen Nuoyi slightly shook her head:

"I scored full marks in a slaying simulation with 99% realism."

Su Yuan nodded in satisfaction:

"In that case, you’ll be fully involved in the handling of the ingredients, class monitor."

"Okay!" Chen Nuoyi’s pretty face showed a thirst for knowledge, "Coach, feel free to instruct me, I’ll make sure not to hold you back."

Su Yuan: "..."

Actively wanting to learn ancient corpse refinement? Class monitor, you’ve got it!

However, this was exactly what he wanted.

Half an hour later, every feather of the Dragon Scale Goose was plucked, and its organs were removed, leaving the entire goose clean and seemingly peacefully asleep.

The materials were ready, and it was time for the next step, the official corpse refinement...ahem, roasting!
