"Should we go and take a look?" Guan Yixuan asked.

"I don't know what's in the room. We are no match for Zhuang Hong alone. Now that we have obtained the evidence, we should give it to the dean first," Mei Zixi said.

"Senior Brother Mei is right." Yue Yang agreed.

"Then let's retreat today." Jiang Ning said.

"Okay." Guan Yixuan nodded.

The five people left Baixiangyuan.

When they reached the safe area, Mei Zixi said to Nangong Yao, "Junior Sister Nangong, I may need some Rank [-] Honglin Powder to be handed over to the dean as evidence."

Everyone knows that Nangong Yao has the fifth-turn Honglin Powder in his hand.

Facing Mei Zixi's words, Nangong Yao seemed absent-minded, as if her attention had been focused on other things.

"Nangong? Nangong? What's wrong with you? Why are you so preoccupied?" Guan Yixuan patted Nangong Yao before she came back to her senses.

"Ah? Oh! Five-turn Honglin Powder, right? I have it here."

Nangong Yao took out the medicine bottle containing Wuzhuan Honglin Powder and an empty medicine bottle from the storage bag, and poured half of the powder of Wuzhuan Honglin Powder into the empty bottle.

After capping the bottle, Nangong Yao handed the medicine bottle to Mei Zixi.He said smoothly, "Senior Brother Mei, it's getting late now, and the dean should have taken a rest. Why don't you report this matter to the dean tomorrow morning."

Mei Zixi took the medicine bottle, looked at the sky, and nodded in agreement with Nangong Yao's proposal.

"Then I will inform the dean about this tomorrow morning."

After the five people separated, they each returned to their homes.

Jiang Ning thought about what happened tonight, and always felt that something was unusual.

While thinking about it, Jiang Ning returned to his cabin, only to see Qin Xiao squatting at the door.

"Master Qin? What are you doing here?" Jiang Ning asked.

"Of course I'm waiting for you!" Qin Xiao gritted his teeth.

"After the competition yesterday, you didn't say where to meet, so I had no choice but to come to your door and block you."

"Oh! Sorry, I've been a little busy lately. I've forgotten a lot of things." Jiang Ning suddenly realized and remembered what he promised Qin Xiao on the competition stage yesterday.

"What are you busy with? As far as I know, you are not competing today." Qin Xiao said.

"It's nothing, you should hear about it tomorrow." Jiang Ning opened the door and entered his small room, lit a candle, and sat at the table.

Qin Xiao consciously sat across from Jiang Ning and poured himself a cup of tea.

"So, tell me, how do you manage to control spiritual power so carefully?" Qin Xiao asked seriously.

Jiang Ning poured himself a cup of tea leisurely, "I think you should tell me first, why did you attack me in the middle of the night?"

"Why? I asked first!" Qin Xiao slammed the table anxiously.

"Don't worry, controlling spiritual power is the secret of my cultivation. If you want to know, you must at least prove that you are not my enemy first." Jiang Ning said slowly.

"Okay, let me talk first." Qin Xiao gritted his teeth.

"That night, I attacked you to find out whether you were a boy or a girl." Qin Xiao's words made Jiang Ning pause for a moment while playing with the teacup.

Then, Jiang Ning pretended not to care and continued to ask, "Why do you suspect that I am not a man?"

"Because I was entrusted by someone to find someone." Qin Xiao said truthfully.

"Who?" Jiang Ning continued to ask.

"Her name is also Jiang Ning, but she is a woman, and she carries a green sword with her."

Hearing Qin Xiao's description, Jiang Ning smiled, hiding the strange look in his eyes, and asked, "So you think I look like a woman? Or maybe I hide a cyan sword?"

Faced with Jiang Ning's problem, Qin Xiao denied it repeatedly.

"Misunderstanding, it's all misunderstanding. I know you are not the person I am looking for."

Jiang Ning's face didn't change as he continued to ask, "Why is this?"

Qin Xiaohun shrugged nonchalantly, "I asked someone to find out, you don't have a sword at all, you always use an iron sword. Besides, you are a man, it should just be a name."

"So that's why you broke into my house that night?"

"Of course I want to feel your pulse. Even the most exquisite disguise technique in the world cannot change your pulse. I can tell whether you are a boy or a girl just by touching it," Qin Xiao said.

"So you have completely given up your doubts about me now?" Jiang Ning asked.

"Actually, it's still a little bit. But if you think about it carefully, how could there be a woman in the world as... well... strong as you." Qin Xiao's words made Jiang Ning a little bit dumbfounded.

Jiang Ning stretched out his wrist and said with a smile, "I don't want to be misunderstood again in the future. If you still have doubts, I will give you a chance to find out the facts."

Qin Xiao saw Jiang Ning showing his wrist, obviously agreeing to let him diagnose his pulse. After hesitating for a moment, Qin Xiao still stretched out his hand.

The pulse in his hand was strong and powerful, obviously that of a man.

Qin Xiao took back his hand and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

He really couldn't imagine what it would be like to be a woman in Jiangning.

"Are you relieved?" Jiang Ning took back his hand.

"Yeah." Qin Xiao nodded heavily.

The system also breathed a sigh of relief in Jiang Ning's mind, [Fortunately, the Void Illusion Ring can change the pulse. 】

"I'm a little curious. What kind of person is the person who asked you to help find someone? What is his relationship with this girl named Jiang Ning?" Jiang Ning pretended to be curious.

"I don't know about that. Maybe he was looking for that girl because of the cyan sword." Qin Xiao replied.

"Sword?" Jiang Ning's eyes darkened slightly.

"Because he emphasized to me that the girl must have a cyan sword with her." Qin Xiao thought Jiang Ning was curious and told her everything she knew and guessed.

"That's really interesting." Jiang Ning was still smiling, but his eyes were filled with coldness.

[The person behind Qin Xiao is here for the artifact! ] The system was surprised.

"By the way, I heard that Mr. Qin came to Chuwu Academy this time for the sake of Junior Sister Qin Nian." Jiang Ning suddenly mentioned Qin Nian.

"Indeed, the Qin family sent me here to inquire about Qin Nian's life here." Qin Xiao didn't think these things were secrets.

"But compared to Qin Nian's life here, I am more interested in your college's competition."

"Young master Qin is so slack, aren't you afraid that you won't be able to pay the job when you go back?" Jiang Ning said.

"It's nothing to deal with. The Qin family has no time to take care of Qin Nian now. They are so busy with the marriage," Qin Xiao said.

"Having said so much, is it time for you to tell me how to control spiritual power carefully?"

"This is simple." Jiang Ning took out a book from his storage bag and placed it in front of Qin Xiao. "As long as you practice according to the above, you will be like me in less than half a year."

Qin Xiao picked up the book, and before he could read it, there was a sudden knock on Jiang Ning's door.

Jiang Ning stood up and opened the door. Outside the door was Guan Yixuan with a worried face.

"Jiang Ning, Nangong is missing!"
