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

Chapter 41 Quickly take this scoundrel to the execution platform and behead him!
"Sorry, we only serve regular customers."

Deep in the alley, a burly man in a black suit and wearing sunglasses late at night blocked Su Yuan and Chen Nuoyi's way.

After a long internal struggle, the two finally decided to enter the alley to find out what was going on.

Looking up at the pink-glowing sign behind the burly man in sunglasses, Su Yuan was even more speechless.

The pink signboard displayed four large, sparkling characters.

【Peach Oolong】!
Peach oolong is a delicious tea beverage, as everyone knows.

However, when these four words appear on this signboard in this strange environment, it just gets really weird, doesn't it?

Chen Nuoyi didn't realize there was anything wrong with those four words.

But for Su Yuan, who has a remarkable ability to make connections, every single stroke of these four characters is inappropriate!

But he can't say it... because if he did, it wouldn't be published!
Su Yuanqiang suppressed the urge to complain, coughed lightly, and said in a feigned calm tone:
“There’s someone we know in there, but I don’t know if he’s using his real name or a stage name in your shop.”

The burly man in sunglasses said coldly:
"Then describe the appearance of the person you know. If such a person exists, I will notify them."

Su Yuan then gave a general description of Chu Lanxi's height and appearance.

"Are you sure?"

The burly man in sunglasses had a strange expression on his face.

"Uh, is there a problem? Isn't he an employee here?"

Su Yuan asked, somewhat puzzled.

The burly man in sunglasses didn't answer. He raised his hand, pressed his earpiece, and lowered his voice to say:
"Boss, there are two young men outside looking for you. They say they are your friends."

Su Yuan and Chen Nuoyi: "???"

The two looked at each other and saw disbelief in each other's eyes.

Before entering the alley, they considered many possibilities, including whether Chu Lanxi was an employee or a customer, but they never expected this situation!
boss!

Chu Lanxi, with her thick eyebrows and big eyes, is actually the owner of this shop?!
This is no longer just ordinary collusion with the demonic path; this is clearly the leader of a demonic sect!

A dozen seconds later, the tightly closed shop door opened, and a familiar figure appeared in front of Su Yuan and Chen Nuoyi.

"I knew it was the two of you."

Chu Lanxi's face showed a hint of helplessness:
"So the roast goose the cafeteria treated me to earlier was indeed for ulterior motives, wasn't it?"

Su Yuan quickly pulled Chu Lanxi aside and said with a pained expression:
"Lanzi! If you're just here to make quick money, we can understand, but you absolutely shouldn't have opened this kind of shop!"

"You need to understand that running a store like this takes at least five years. You can't keep making this mistake!"

Chen Nuoyi also advised:
"Chu, why did you fall into the demonic path? If you need money, you can come and work with us to earn some."

Chu Lanxi's expression turned strange upon hearing this:
"Five years minimum? What have I done? I just opened a bubble tea shop."

"A bubble tea shop?"

Su Yuan sneered:

"Who would open a bubble tea shop in such a remote alley and put up such a garish pink sign?"

Chu Lanxi was even more innocent:
"Peach oolong tea is the shop's signature drink, so what's wrong with me using it as the shop's name? As for the color of the signboard... is it wrong for me to like pink?"

Seeing that Chu Lanxi spoke with such certainty, Chen Nuoyi began to waver:

"Su Yuan, have we misunderstood Chu?"

Su Yuan still sneered: "Lanzi, you can fool your brothers, but don't fool yourself."

One minute later.

Su Yuan, who was led behind the bar by Chu Lanxi, stared in disbelief at the customers sitting quietly drinking tea in the shop.

"Dude, this really is a bubble tea shop!"

Su Yuan was shocked for a long, long time before finally asking his final question: "Since it's a legitimate shop, why don't you open it in a more bustling area?"

Chu Lanxi shrugged and said:
"When did I say this was a legitimate shop? Peach Oolong is a properly registered and licensed 17+ magic shop."

"Magic Gate?"

Su Yuan and Chen Nuoyi were both taken aback.

Chu Lanxi smiled and explained:

"You don't understand, do you? Actually, the Demonic Sect can also exist legally."

"Our cultivation civilization developed after the revival of spiritual energy, based on ancient cultivation relics."

"These ruins contain both righteous and demonic lineages."

"At the beginning of the spiritual energy revival, many people used demonic methods to do evil, which was met with a thunderous crackdown by righteous people. Today, the demonic path has been almost completely eradicated."

"However, in the course of civilization's development, many insightful people have gradually discovered that many methods that were once considered demonic in the ancient era of cultivation also have their merits."

"Therefore, some less harmful demonic traditions were not completely eradicated and can establish legitimate demonic sects. However, certain conditions must be met in order to access these demonic sects."

"The most common condition is age restriction. That's how the classification of '17-forbidden magic sect' and '18-forbidden magic sect' came about."

"My shop is a forbidden magic sect for 17 years old, so it can't be located in a busy area. Only cultivators aged 17 and above can come in and make purchases."

After listening to Chu Lanxi's introduction, Su Yuan and Chen Nuoyi felt as if a new world had been opened to them.

Sorry, they are still too young; they don't even know that the Demonic Sect can be legalized!
"So, does the Hehuan Sect really exist?"

After digesting all this information, Su Yuan asked curiously.

Chu Lanxi: "No, that won't do. If you're caught, you'll be sent to the Execution Platform."

Su Yuan: "Oh, then it's nothing."

Chen Nuoyi asked, puzzled:
"But why would a bubble tea shop be rated as a 17+ adult site?"

Chu Lanxi remained silent and instead handed the drink price list to the two of them.

Two heads pressed against the price list, but after only glancing at the beginning, they started shaking it wildly, like cats with duct tape stuck to their paws, and flung the price list far away.

"Imperial Lemon Tea, 180 yuan a cup?!"

Su Yuan's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets!
How dare he? How did Chu Lanxi dare to do that?

You're selling a glass of lemonade that costs three yuan for one hundred and eighty!

This is no longer the 17 Forbidden Demonic Sect; they should be dragged to the Execution Platform and beheaded, just like the sect leader of the Joyful Union Sect.

"Su Yuan, my legs feel a little weak."

Chen Nuoyi gripped Su Yuan's sleeve, trembling, clearly frightened by the dense array of zeros on the price list.

Chu Lanxi, however, calmly said:

"Don't make a fuss, there's a reason why I sell it at such a high price."

Su Yuan was slightly taken aback, and tentatively asked:

"Could it be that these drinks are made with very high-quality ingredients, such as premium spiritual fruits with extremely high nutritional value?"

Chu Lanxi: "No, it's just that the price of ordinary spiritual fruits, which is five yuan per kilogram on the market, can be even cheaper at the wholesale price."

Su Yuan: "...You really deserve to be beheaded."

Chu Lanxi smiled and continued:

"Although the ingredients for making milk tea are ordinary, I added other ingredients to it, which is the core secret of my Demonic Sect."
