As he said this, Liu Ergou stroked his chin.
"If what I said is true, then Sister Fu Ya, you're a one-in-ten-thousand genius! But I don't think that's very likely."
That last comnt nearly earned him a kick from Fu Ya, but she ultimately abandoned the idea since she couldn't muster any strength.
"Hmph, and why can't I be a one-in-ten-thousand genius?" Fu Ya glared at him, annoyed.
Hearing her words, Liu Ergou didn't say anything and simply chuckled.
"Alright, Sister Fu Ya, let's be serious. What exactly happened to you?"
After hearing Liu Ergou's question, Fu Ya coughed and regained her composure.
"Well… I just got lucky," she said. "On my way ho, I saved a senior from the Patrol Bureau. She was on the verge of death, so she transferred all her power to . And let tell you, she was an Innate Grandmaster!"
At this revelation, Liu Ergou's face filled with astonishnt.
An Innate Grandmaster?! Aren't they supposed to be extrely rare? How did Fu Ya just stumble upon one on her way ho?
At that thought, Liu Ergou felt utterly dismayed.
It seems Fu Ya is the real protagonist, and I'm probably just so villainous side character.
Fu Ya continued, "That senior from the Patrol Bureau was nearing the end of her lifespan and was also injured. And yes, she was a female senior, not a man!
"She saw that my natural aptitude was pretty good, so she passed all her power on to .
"That's how I beca a Houtian Realm Ancient Martial Artist.
"Of course, she warned about the dangers of such a forced power-up and taught how to control the unstable True Qi.
"But because I got injured, I lost control of the True Qi, which is why I'm in this state!"
After hearing her story, Liu Ergou understood exactly what had happened.
He imdiately asked, "Sister Fu Ya, tell who did this to you. I'll get revenge for you! Whoever dared to hurt you like this, I won't let them get away with it. I'll grind them to dust!"
Hearing this, Fu Ya hurriedly tried to stop him.
"Don't, Er Gou, don't go! You can't go there. That group uses poison, and you're no match for them! Be good and listen to ! Wait until I'm better, and I'll have people from the bureau co with us. We'll catch them all in one fell swoop—none of them will escape!"
Seeing the worried look on her face, Liu Ergou smiled and pinched her cheek.
"Sister Fu Ya, your mory is a bit off. Have you forgotten? I'm a doctor. Do you really think any poison can affect ? They should be worried about poisoning them!"
Reminded by Liu Ergou, Fu Ya realized he had a point. Even so, she still didn't approve of him going.
"Er Gou, listen to . This group is organized and disciplined! The ones I fought were just underlings. They're one thing, but if you run into their leader, you're definitely no match for him! I know you're a great doctor, but how long have you been involved in the Ancient Martial Sects? You don't understand these things!"
Liu Ergou knew Fu Ya was completely in the dark about his real strength. Deciding not to hide it any longer, he circulated the True Qi in his body and threw a punch into the empty air.
CRACK!
With a loud crack, Liu Ergou generated a sonic boom out of thin air.
After throwing the punch, he turned his head with a grin and looked at Fu Ya.
"Sister Fu Ya, you understand what this punch ans, don't you? Do I need to say more? We're both in the Houtian Realm now. To defeat , soone would have to be an Innate Grandmaster. But as far as I know, they're extrely rare, right? Even if they exist, they usually hold high positions in the Patrol Bureau! Loose Cultivator Grandmasters are rarer than giant pandas!"
However, Fu Ya was so shocked by the punch that her jaw hung open, and she didn't hear a single word he said afterward.
Seeing this, Liu Ergou reached out and gently poked her cheek. The light poke was enough to snap her out of her stupor.
"Er Gou, you… you're in the Houtian Realm?!" Fu Ya stared at Liu Ergou, her eyes full of utter shock.
"I rember you were just an ordinary person before we separated. How did you… in such a short ti…"
As she spoke, Fu Ya seed to rember sothing and slapped her own forehead.
"Oh, I get it now! You must have t an Innate Grandmaster who transferred their power to you, right!"
Hearing this, Liu Ergou laughed and shook his head.
"Sister Fu Ya, what are you thinking? Do you think I have your kind of luck? Let tell you, I earned all of my strength through my own cultivation! So my power is the real deal. Killing them will be as easy as pie!"
Looking at Liu Ergou's confident expression, Fu Ya was at a loss for words. She never imagined that in just a few short months, he would have beco so powerful.
And to think I was planning on protecting him when he finally found … It turns out he's even stronger than I am.
Seeing the silent Fu Ya, Liu Ergou ruffled her hair.
"Sister Fu Ya, you've seen my strength now. So tell , where are the people who poisoned and injured you? I'll go get revenge for you! Don't worry, I'll be fine. Trust !"
Fu Ya didn't answer imdiately. She simply lay there, gazing at Liu Ergou's face for a full three or four minutes.
Finally, she let out a long sigh.
"Sigh… Er Gou, I guess you're the real one-in-ten-thousand genius! Since you're already so powerful, I won't hide it anymore. I'll tell you where those people are. But you have to wait a little longer! Wait for to recover a bit, and I'll go with you. They won't show themselves without !"
Fu Ya then told him the details, and Liu Ergou readily agreed to her conditions.
「Three days passed in a flash.」
On the first day after she woke up, Lu Shuangyue chatted with Fu Ya for a while before heading back to the office. After all, many things were waiting for her at the company.
For the next two days, Liu Ergou took care of Fu Ya by himself.
By the third day, Fu Ya's condition had improved significantly. Although she hadn't made a full recovery, she had regained her independence and could keep up with Liu Ergou. At that mont, Liu Ergou was in the middle of feeding her dicine.
