章 195: Chapter 193

Lu Miao's heart tightened in an instant. Had he seen her before, perhaps at the Gu family or somewhere else, and recognized her?

"Do you have any other instructions, Master?" Lu Miao asked.

"I wouldn't dare," Master Jiuhua replied. "Although you're of a tender age, your cultivation level far surpasses ours. There's probably no one in the entire country who can compare. It's not my place to issue commands, and even seeking advice would be beyond my reach."

That's a relief. He hadn't recognized her.

Lu Miao relaxed and responded politely, "Master, you flatter me. I'm merely someone who has had the good fortune to encounter an excellent master."

"May I inquire about your teacher? Which sect does he belong to?" Master Jiuhua asked.

Lu Miao responded directly, "No sect, no school. My master has already passed away, and now I'm just an ordinary person. I take on tasks to make a living."
