Oh my god, this is a bolt from the blue! A true heiress of metaphysics!

Shi Xiaxia was a little embarrassed because she didn't expect to be noticed so easily, but she didn't try to hide it and nodded frankly.

Seeing this, Xu Jianshan smiled slightly and then explained, "Back then, when I was all alone and wandering the streets, I was fortunate enough to be rescued by my master."

My master could tell at a glance that I was destined to die young, but he was kind-hearted and couldn't bear to see me die so young.

Therefore, my master went to great lengths to deceive the heavens, which allowed me to survive to this day and grow into the form I am today.

After hearing these words, Shi Xiaxia nodded thoughtfully.

Although some doubts remained deep in my heart, upon careful consideration, what Xu Jianshan said made sense.

So she stopped staring at Xu Jianshan and looked away.

Xu Jianshan focused intently on reattaching Shi Xiaxia's arm, his movements gentle and skillful, while muttering, "As metaphysicians, you bear heavy responsibilities, so it is only natural for you to be cautious in your actions."

"Thank you for your understanding." Shi Xiaxia nodded slightly and replied softly.

Before long, Xu Jianshan successfully reattached Shi Xiaxia's arm. After carefully checking it and confirming that everything was in order, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, he patiently gave Shi Xiaxia several more instructions, such as not lifting heavy objects and getting plenty of rest.

Then, he took out a piece of paper from the drawer, wrote a few lines in a flamboyant style, and handed it to Shi Xiaxia, saying, "This is some medicine I prescribed for you. Just take it according to the instructions."

After saying that, he smiled slightly and turned to walk towards the next patient.

Shi Xiaxia sat on a chair to the side, her gaze quietly falling on the patients who came to see her.

She found that Xu Jianshan was so kind and approachable to every patient, whether they were familiar or unfamiliar faces, he would always chat with them in a friendly manner.

The patients looked at Xu Jianshan with eyes full of respect and gratitude, as if he were their savior.

Shi Xiaxia couldn't help but lower her head and ponder, realizing that she might be overthinking things.

If he were truly a master of metaphysics, he probably wouldn't be working as an ordinary clinic doctor in such a small place.

......

After several days of travel and busy work, I haven't had a proper rest at all.

Therefore, after they finished treating Yue Mingzhu, they found a hotel nearby and stayed there temporarily.

Yue Mingzhu's injuries were quite serious, so she stayed for two more days.

Once their physical condition had largely recovered, the group boarded a plane and successfully returned to the capital.

After getting off the plane, Yi Huan took Yue Mingzhu directly back to her residence, while Shi Xiaxia went to her department to submit her mission report.

Just as I stepped into the department, a figure rushed towards me like a gust of wind, shouting, "You're Shi Xiaxia, right?"

Where is Mingzhu?! How is Mingzhu doing?! Why didn't she come back with us?

The man looked anxious and spoke with great concern, clearly very worried about the safety of Yue Mingzhu.

Shi Xiaxia frowned, looked at the man's face, and felt that it looked somewhat familiar.

He appears to be one of the people who dealt with the witch doctor in Mya Lai Ching Hai.

Shi Xiaxia took a step back, creating some distance between herself and him, before speaking: "Shouldn't you introduce yourself before asking someone a question?"

Upon hearing this, the man was stunned and speechless for a moment.

But the other person standing behind him suddenly sneered, saying in a contemptuous tone, "You're just a newbie at the bronze level. Shouldn't you remember all the seniors in the sect?"

Shi Xiaxia turned her head and gave the man behind her a cold look, her face showing a speechless expression.

Shi Xiaxia had met this person twice before. Once was when she first faced Master Qingyun, and the other time was in My Lai Ching Hai, when they dealt with the local shaman.

He seemed to be the grandson of Master Qingchuan, but Shi Xiaxia hadn't paid attention to his exact name.

At this moment, the man who was anxious to find the Moon Pearl finally came to his senses, and quickly smiled to ease the atmosphere, introducing himself: "My name is Yu Mujian. Please forgive me for my rudeness just now."

Shi Xiaxia nodded gently and replied, "Yue Mingzhu has already returned to her residence."

After saying that, he turned and walked towards the archives.

However, at that moment, the young man behind Yu Mujian suddenly shouted, "What kind of attitude is this?! A newcomer who just joined the department, how dare you be so arrogant?!"

Shi Xiaxia ignored him completely, not even bothering to look at him again, and walked straight to the archives.

This kind of person isn't worth wasting your breath on.

They have no real skills, but they rely on their background to bully and oppress others.

The man was about to shout something more when Yu Mujian quickly stopped him and explained, "Master Feng said that Shi Xiaxia's abilities are extremely powerful, so it's best not to offend her!"

"Powerful? Hmph, she's just a woman. No matter how powerful she is, she can't possibly be as good as us men, right?" the man said with a disdainful look.

Yu Mujian looked at him, shook his head helplessly, and said nothing more, only leaving out the words: "I'm going to see Mingzhu."

He then hurriedly left the department.

At the same time, Shi Xiaxia was holding the task documents and talking with Jin Ran, who was in charge of the handover.

After carefully reading the task, Jin Ran was surprised to find that the task level had been upgraded to diamond level.

She couldn't help but cry out, and her shout immediately attracted the attention of other managers who came to watch.

"A diamond-level mission..." everyone exclaimed in amazement.

However, the man who had just been standing next to Yu Mujian curled his lip dismissively: "Tch, what's so great about diamond level?"

With her bronze-level strength, she simply couldn't have completed such a difficult task; she must have only succeeded because of Yi Huan.

"Du Zhengming, if you think the diamond quest level is too low, why can't you accept it?"

Jin Ran is a girl with a straightforward personality. She can't stand Du Zhengming, who is arrogant and looks down on women.

Therefore, upon hearing him say that, she immediately couldn't help but retort.

"That's right! And Du Zhengming, how long have you been in the department? You can't even reach the diamond level, while Xiaxia has only been here for a few months and has already been promoted to silver!"

The others chimed in, their voices filled with dissatisfaction and mockery towards Du Zhengming: "I remember it took you almost a year to reach Silver rank, didn't it?"
