My whole family are full of geniuses, I really don't want to be a succubus!

"I never expected it to be that lord! Wan Quan, you are truly blessed!" Su Yi exclaimed.

Gu Wanquan chuckled and bowed to Su Yi again, saying, "It's all thanks to Senior Brother for finding that master's sword intent that I was able to complete the inheritance!"

The two exchanged knowing smiles. Gu Wanquan knew very well that Su Yi already knew that she had received the inheritance of the ancient sword immortal.

But so what?

What is rightfully yours will always be yours, and no one can take it away from you!

Even without Su Yi entering the inner realm and bringing back the complete Sword Immortal inheritance, Gu Wanquan was confident that he could obtain the inheritance by entering the inner realm himself.

However, Gu Wanquan was still very grateful for this effortless gain and Su Yi's generous act of directly passing on the sword immortal's inheritance to him.

Even if Su Yi is a bit of a pushover, and even if Su Yi sometimes makes stupid mistakes, her noble character is something that Gu Wanquan should respect!

Gu Wanquan's sincere gratitude made Su Yi feel somewhat embarrassed.

I didn't actually intend to give it away, but the remnant soul of the sword immortal was too sinister, and the sword intent talisman actually managed to come out of the storage bag on its own!

But the matter was already settled, so Su Yi could only feign magnanimity and say, "I was chosen by that great man in the inner realm, and he insisted on taking me as his disciple. You don't know, that great man only had a wisp of his soul left, and he almost knelt down before me before I reluctantly helped him find a successor!"

Listening to Su Yi bragging, Gu Wanquan didn't take it to heart. He had received such great benefits, so it was only right for him to listen to his senior brother brag a little!

  

Seeing Gu Wanquan's expression that said he would do whatever she wanted, Su Yi knew that it was time to give herself a legitimate reason to draw the "Wait and See Sword"!

"Don't you believe me, Wan Quan?"

"I believe everything my senior brother says!"

"See, I knew you wouldn't believe me. Look at this!"

Su Yi raised the sword at his waist with a righteous air.

The black lacquered wooden scabbard and hilt are integrated into one piece, like a naturally formed wooden stick.

When Gu Wanquan's gaze fell on the Qieman sword at Su Yi's waist, his pupils couldn't help but shrink.

He initially thought Su Yi was just wearing a stick around her waist and didn't pay much attention.

But when Gu Wanquan looked closely, he discovered the extraordinary nature of the long sword at Su Yi's waist!

The entire sword is perfectly formed, with flowing sword intent, as if an unstoppable sword intent is hidden in the scabbard!

A truly peerless divine weapon!

Gu Wanquan frowned slightly, which made Su Yi's heart sink.

Goodness, could it be that it has some kind of telepathic connection with this sword and knows that it has intercepted it?

Gu Wanquan looked intently at the longsword at Su Yi's waist and said, "Senior brother, may I borrow it for a look?"

Feeling somewhat guilty, Su Yi feigned composure as she untied the sword and handed it to Gu Wanquan, saying casually, "The moment I entered the inner realm, this sword recognized me as its master. Otherwise, that lord wouldn't have been crying and begging me to be his apprentice!"

Gu Wanquan took the longsword and stroked the scabbard with one hand. The sword intent flowed unconsciously, as if he and this longsword were born to be compatible.

This is indeed the sword of an ancient sword immortal!

Suddenly, the sword intent was violently repelled by the scabbard, and the longsword refused to let the sword intent enter its body!

This scene surprised Gu Wanquan for a moment!

As the sword of an ancient sword immortal, it should be perfectly suited to the sword immortal's sword intent, so there is no reason for it to directly deflect the sword intent.

unless……

Gu Wanquan reached out and grasped the sword hilt, only to find that the hilt seemed to be welded firmly into the scabbard, and he could not pull it out even a fraction of an inch!

Suddenly, the longsword broke free from Gu Wanquan's hands and flew back to Su Yi's waist as if it had a mind of its own.

It rubbed against Su Yi with a hint of grievance, as if blaming Su Yi for letting others touch it!

That guy over there is so rude!

They even tried to pull it out!

So what if I have the sword intent of the former sword immortal? I am already Su Yi's sword!

How annoying! They even want to infuse sword intent into the sword, without any sense of boundaries!

Gu Wanquan, who inherited the legacy of a sword immortal, keenly sensed that he was disliked by the long sword at Su Yi's waist.

He awkwardly touched his nose, but then he thought of something even more shocking!

This sword of the sword immortal actually recognized Su Yi as its master!

Gu Wanquan stared in shock at the long sword at Su Yi's waist, asking incredulously, "Senior brother, does that lord really want to take you as his disciple?"

Only those who inherit the legacy of the Sword Immortal are qualified to wield this longsword!

Logically speaking, Gu Wanquan is the most suitable successor to this long sword!

However, the longsword recognizes Su Yi as its master, which means that Su Yi is also qualified to become the successor of the sword immortal!

He originally thought that he was the only sword cultivator in the world qualified to become a sword immortal.

Unexpectedly, Su Yi also possessed such qualifications!

Gu Wanquan's expression turned solemn. He looked at Su Yi with unprecedented seriousness.

At first, he thought that Su Yi had only found the sword immortal's inheritance for him.

But when the sword was placed in front of him, Gu Wanquan was shocked to realize that Su Yi was also qualified to receive this sword immortal's inheritance, but she still left it to him!

This kindness is not only a kindness in protecting the faith, but also no less than a kindness in spreading the faith!

To hand over a broad road to immortality to someone else—in his heart, Gu Wanquan couldn't do that.

Or rather, no cultivator could do it!

"Senior brother, if that's the case, this gift is far too precious!" Gu Wanquan said earnestly to Su Yi.

"Senior brother, don't you know that this inheritance is equivalent to a path to immortality? You're just going to give it to me like this?"

Su Yi instantly realized that Gu Wanquan truly believed she could also become a successor of the Sword Immortal, and the charade had finally been staged!

He coughed, then looked intently at Gu Wanquan with his captivating eyes and declared loudly, "There are three thousand paths to enlightenment, but the path of the sword is not suitable for me!"

Gu Wanquan looked at Su Yi unmoved; this reason was simply not convincing to him.

If a sword immortal wants to take him as a disciple, do you think he is not suited for the way of the sword?

Gu Wanquan didn't believe it at all!

At this moment, Gu Wanquan showed his stubbornness, seemingly determined to get Su Yi to explain why!

Why? Should I tell you that I want to be able to legitimately carry the sword immortal's sword around in front of you in the future?

Seeing Gu Wanquan's persistent nagging, Su Yi's face showed a hint of difficulty.

"Please enlighten me, senior brother!"

Su Yi's mind raced, and she instantly came up with a good idea. She looked at Gu Wanquan with feigned helplessness and amusement.

Those peach blossom eyes seemed to see right through Gu Wanquan's truest feelings, causing Gu Wanquan to slightly avert his gaze.

Su Yi chuckled softly, her tone both playful and earnest, as if she were speaking to Gu Wanquan, yet also as if she were speaking to herself:

"Alright, actually I'm not exactly a sword cultivator. I'm just curious, what if I were to pass this inheritance to a masked boy..."

Su Yi paused deliberately, and Gu Wanquan's pupils contracted. Seeing Su Yi's teasing gaze, he hurriedly turned his head away.

Su Yi's hearty laughter rang out, but then turned serious:

"I wonder if this will give him the courage one day to take off his mask and live freely in the sunlight!"
