However, Qiu Yue had changed quite a bit compared to how she looked half a month ago.

She had been consuming the Health-replenishing Pill for the past half month and was no longer skinny and weak like before.

Qiu Yue’s face was clear and pretty like a blooming flower, complementing her rosy complexion. She looked absolutely beautiful and charming.

She appeared graceful and pleasant and was certainly born to be a beauty.

“What’s the good news?” Lu Ming asked with a smile.

“Young Master, you’ve only been focusing on your cultivation, without ever bothering to check on me. Allow me to tell you that I’ve opened up four meridians!”

Qiu Yue leaned towards Lu Ming’s ear and murmured. A faint fragrance wafted into Lu Ming’s nose. It was a pleasant smell.

Pfft!

However, Lu Ming was not in the right mood to enjoy it. His eyes nearly popped out as he spat a mouthful of tea. He looked at Qiu Yue incredulously and asked, “Qiu Yue, what did you say? You’ve already opened up four meridians?”

“Yep. Is it that weird, Young Master? It didn’t take much effort for the meridians to open up,” Qiu Yue asked curiously as she blinked her eyes.

The corners of Lu Ming’s lips started to tremble ever so slightly.

He clearly remembered when Qiu Yue was nursing her health around ten days ago. It was only three days before Lu Ming passed the Qi Condensation Art down to Qiu Yue, and taught her how to open her meridians.

It had only been three days, but Qiu Yue had already opened up four meridians. Her blood meridian was not awakened yet, and she was even using the useless Qi Condensation Art. It was truly inconceivable!

Moreover, what did “it didn’t take much effort” even mean? Was she trying to drive him mad?

Was it possible that Qiu Yue was actually a prodigy in cultivating martial arts? Lu Ming’s heart started to burn.

“It was nothing. Can you feel the energy from your blood meridian, Qiu Yue?” Lu Ming coughed and asked.

“The power of my blood meridian… I can’t feel it. I wonder why?”

Qiu Yue was a little confused herself.

Lu Ming pondered for a moment. “Qiu Yue, come to my room, I’ll check it out for you,” he said.

“Mm, sure!” Qiu Yue nodded.

The two of them entered Lu Ming’s room and sat on the bed.

“Alright, let’s start.”

Lu Ming smiled as he stretched out his palms and placed it on Qiu Yue’s back, then gradually infused Essential Qi into her spine.

He slowly shifted his palm up Qiu Yue’s back in order to stimulate her blood meridian and check its condition.

It was at this moment that Lu Ming’s expression changed. He felt a huge resistance in Qiu Yue’s spine that was stopping him from circulating his Essential Qi.

“What’s happening?”

Lu Ming furrowed his brows and increased the amount of Essential Qi being infused.

Something strange occurred right at that moment.

A blinding flash of blood-red suddenly burst from Qiu Yue’s spine. A strong force came surging out from her spine, shooting towards Lu Ming.

Lu Ming was unable to resist this force. With a thunderous boom, he was thrown to the wall by the force.

At that instant, the red flash from Qiu Yue’s spine disappeared as if nothing had ever happened.

“Young Master!”
