Jun Ziyi stood frozen outside the room. For a moment, she neither knew whether to enter nor leave, utterly at a loss.
Qi Wansu hurriedly pulled back the hand Lu Feng had been holding. Her pretty face flushed scarlet in an instant, her heart pounding wildly, as though she had been caught in the middle of a secret tryst.
Lu Feng, by contrast, remained exceptionally calm. Aside from a trace of displeasure between his brows at Jun Ziyi's recklessness, he had no other particular thoughts.
"Perfect timing," Lu Feng said, gesturing to Jun Ziyi. "Go bring Ning Xiang here."
Jun Ziyi froze, then snapped back to her senses and fled from outside the Quiet Chamber as though escaping for her life. Her own heart was also leaping about, countless stray thoughts crashing through her mind.
After she had left, Qi Wansu looked at Lu Feng with a soft laugh. "Young Master, aren't you going to explain? Aren't you afraid she'll misunderstand?"
"It's nothing," Lu Feng replied with an open smile.
Qi Wansu hesitated for a moment, then timidly asked, "Then... are we still continuing the examination?"
Lu Feng shook his head. "I'll have another one of my disciples take a look at you later. Her strength is ordinary, but her understanding of the meridians is no worse than that of an Earth Soul Realm medicine master, or even an ordinary Heaven Soul Realm medicine master."
Because of Zhao Yan, Ning Xiang had specialized in the study of meridians within the Medicine Dao, and Ye Fan had taught her nearly everything he knew.
Although Lu Feng had not detected anything amiss in Qi Wansu's meridians during his hurried inspection just now, Jun Ziyi's interruption made him think it best to have Ning Xiang look her over as well, for greater peace
