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

When Su Yiyou woke up, she found herself lying in a small cabin. She tried to get up but felt sore all over, but the soreness was accompanied by a tingling and comfortable feeling.

This strange feeling of constraint startled Su Yi.

Oh no, has this attribute panel turned me into McDonald's?

"Ding, talent equipping failure progress (10%)!"

Upon hearing the system notification in her ear, Su Yi, whose face had been somewhat grim, immediately beamed with joy.

That's a great setting! This time, it actually produced a progress bar when I wore it!

I'm not afraid of hardship, but I'm afraid of suffering in a vague and hopeless way.

Once she could see the progress bar, Su Yi suddenly felt that she could endure any hardship.

The progress bar wasn't displayed the first time I wore it, but it is this time. There are only two possibilities:

Either the progress bar increases by 10% each time it's worn.

Either the progress bar increases by 10% every two wears.

At the pace of wearing it once every ten days, it will take at least less than a year for me to become a super prodigy with dual mythical talents!

Thinking of this, Su Yi couldn't help but praise the system again.

Despite the aches and pains all over her body, Su Yi rubbed her shoulders and sat up. She then felt the cabin begin to sway slightly as she got up.

"Where is this? Aren't we on the Qingzhou Governor's ship?" Su Yi asked, walking out of the cabin with a puzzled expression.

As soon as Su Yi stepped out of the cabin, she saw Gu Wanquan standing at the bow of the boat, holding a fishing rod and fishing intently.

"Huh? Wan Quan? Where are we?" Su Yi looked around and found herself on a small boat in the middle of a huge lake.

"Senior brother, you're awake! We're already in Yongzhou territory. The governor of Qingzhou has returned to the incense space!" Gu Wanquan, holding a fishing rod in one hand, turned to Su Yi and said with a bright smile.

"Uh, so fast? How long have I been unconscious... asleep?" Su Yi subconsciously changed her question.

Gu Wanquan turned his head to look at the lake and said slowly, "Senior Brother was unconscious for about five hours and two quarters of an hour. I asked the Governor of Qingzhou to examine him, but the Governor said that Senior Brother's body was not seriously injured and that he just needed to rest!"

Sensing the displeasure in Gu Wanquan's words, seemingly dissatisfied with Su Yi's concealment of her health condition, Su Yi could only laugh it off and say, "Oh, is that so? Sigh, it's my old ailment; it flares up every ten days. Don't worry, it'll be fine in another year!"

"That's your problem, Senior Brother. You're overthinking it. I don't have anything to ask!" Gu Wanquan said with a bright smile as he turned around.

Seeing Gu Wanquan's fake smile, Su Yi's heart skipped a beat, and she knew that Gu Latiao in front of her held a grudge against her.

Dude, what business is it of yours how I am? And you're getting upset about it.

Is it because they haven't beaten me yet, and they're ruthlessly crushing me in the ground, afraid I'll die?

The atmosphere between the two was somewhat awkward. Su Yi glanced out of the corner of her eye and saw the long sword at Gu Wanquan's waist.

The slender, snow-white blade was bare and clipped to Gu Wanquan's waist, while the scabbard was nowhere to be found.

"Hey? Wan Quan, where's the scabbard of your sword?" Su Yi asked, puzzled.

Gu Wanquan glanced down at his waist and said casually, "When I asked the Governor of Qingzhou to examine my senior brother's body, I gave him the sword sheath as a gift to express my gratitude!"

Su Yi scratched his head, somewhat indignantly saying, "That old guy is really stingy! We've already helped his son get a government job, and this old bastard still wants a bribe from us! He deserves to die!"

Gu Wanquan squinted and nodded with a smile, echoing Su Yi's indignant expression.

The scabbard was indeed given to the governor of Qingzhou, but it wasn't given as a gift; rather, it was thrown.

After Su Yi fell into a coma, a panicked Gu Wanquan immediately went to the cabin to ask the governor of Qingzhou to check on Su Yi's health.

However, Su Yi's pain was caused by wearing a mythical talent, and the natives of this world could not detect anything abnormal in Su Yi's body.

Enraged, Gu Wanquan raised his hand and slapped his longsword, sending the scabbard flying and smashing the three-story wooden building on the ship.

The poor scabbard, overwhelmed by anger, was reduced to dust along with the three-story wooden building.

Feeling that he had lost his composure, Gu Wanquan felt it was shameful to talk about such a thing.

"Such a trivial matter is none of your business, Senior Brother."

So when Su Yi berated the governor of Qingzhou for his insatiable greed, Gu Wanquan simply smiled and nodded without refuting her.

After Su Yi gave the governor of Qingzhou a good scolding, she felt that Gu Wanquan's inexplicable resentment towards her had subsided by more than half.

Sure enough, when two people are cursing a third person together, that's when their relationship is at its best.

Seeing that Gu Wanquan's fake smile had become a little more genuine, Su Yi turned her head left and right to look around and asked, "Wanquan, why don't I see Chaoge and Senior Brother Chen?"

Upon hearing Su Yi mention Yin Chaoge and the other man, Gu Wanquan said with a smile, "Senior Brother Chen and Chaoge were so drunk they forgot what the world was like. When they heard that Senior Brother had fainted, they were filled with remorse!"

Su Yi didn't believe a word Gu Wanquan said. When she heard the two of them blaming themselves for her unconsciousness, Su Yi couldn't help but swallow hard.

Goodness, is this cunning spicy strip guy going to take a fit of temper and chop up the two drunkards who are completely out of it?

Gu Wanquan, unaware of what Su Yi was trying to figure out, simply smiled and said, "After the Governor of Qingzhou placed us on this small boat, Chaoge and Senior Brother Chen, wanting to make amends for their mistake, decided to go fishing in the lake to help Senior Brother recuperate!"

Hey, now that I hear that, Chaoge and Senior Brother Chen really put their hearts into it!

Su Yi looked left and right at the lake but couldn't find Yin Chaoge and Chen Feng. Puzzled, she turned to look at Gu Wanquan, who was holding a fishing rod, and suddenly her heart skipped a beat.

"Hey, Wan Quan, where are Chao Ge and Senior Brother Chen?" Su Yi asked awkwardly, but her eyes were already fixed on the fishing rod in Gu Wan Quan's hand.

With a bright smile, Gu Wanquan lifted the fishing rod in his hand, the fishing line tightened, and the two figures, who were wrapped up like dumplings, were pulled out of the lake by Gu Wanquan.

At this moment, Yin Chaoge and Chen Feng were struggling desperately in the water, gasping for fresh air. Yin Chaoge, who had sobered up, glared angrily at Gu Wanquan.

The two Golden Core cultivators were completely devoid of any true essence, bound like ordinary people and allowed Gu Wanquan to tie them to the fishing line.

Gu Wanquan seemed oblivious to Yin Chaoge's murderous glare, and continued to smile brightly as he spoke to Su Yi:

"Isn't it right here, senior brother!"
