Luo Qingtong's heart tensed up.
Just then, she heard someone ask, "Did the Lord say why he wanted the Jade Sky Heart Fruit?"
"This medicinal herb and those previously requested by the Lord do not harmonize well together," the man said, "Mixing them could be disastrous."
Luo Qingtong breathed a sigh of relief.
She was well aware of this and had already prepared an excuse.
"I'm not sure about that, perhaps the Lord had a sudden whim and wanted this herb! It might not be for use in medicine, but thanks to your warning, I will make sure to discuss this thoroughly with the Lord and let him know of your sincere concern."
Luo Qingtong said with a smile.
The man responsible for selecting the herbs felt reassured and nodded in satisfaction, taking the Jade Sky Heart Fruit down from the shelf and handing it to Luo Qingtong, saying, "Well done! You, my lad, have become so articulate in just one day!"
