Chapter 92
Half a month later, Qin Ruxue returned safely to the sect.
Inside the Mystic Jade Cave.
The woman wore a plain white silk skirt. The sash at her waist had loosened slightly, and as her silk stockings touched the ground, they revealed snow-white jade feet adorned with crimson nail polish.
Fang Qing sat casually, sipping a cup of spirit wine. "What excuse did you use to return this time?"
"The Array Island Lord keeps tight control. Ordinary excuses would not have worked, so this consort had no choice but to forcibly circulate my qi and create the appearance of qi deviation. I was approved to return to the sect for recuperation."
Qin Ruxue's cheeks carried a trace of pallor, giving the impression that she had indeed suffered some damage to her vital energy.
If she did not have complete trust in Fang Qing, it would have been impossible for her to act on such an ambiguous message alone.
"I see."
Fang Qing nodded. He had already examined her earlier. The injuries were fabricated, so recovery would not be difficult. However, the damage to her meridians was real and would require several years of careful nurturing to heal properly.
