Just as Zhong Jixiang and the elder Zhong were excitedly preparing to entertain representatives from the major medical families of the province, the alluring and mature Xu Nan, the charming Bai Jiao, and Shen Qiang were already seated in a restaurant by the river.
However, at this moment, the sweetly smiling Bai Jiao had no interest in the river view outside the restaurant. Her bright eyes were fixed on Shen Qiang as she said, "I never expected that not only are you unparalleled in Spiritual Medicine in the Cultivation World, but your Acupuncture Technique is also surprisingly strong."
Shen Qiang said a bit awkwardly, "That was an accident. I originally thought that Zhong Yongxi, no matter how unskilled, was at least the true inheritor of the Small Leaf Plum Blossom Acupuncture. A competition with him was supposed to be harmless, but unexpectedly, it turned out they were all outsiders, a complete waste of time."
