"Madam is considerate." He nodded in gratitude.
Madam Shen Lin smiled faintly, "Master is too polite. If there's anything you need at the Shen Family, just let me know."
Zhou Qing hesitated briefly, then said, "Speaking of which, there is indeed something I'd like to trouble you with, Madam."
Lin Jingtang's eyes subtly flickered, "Oh? Please go ahead, Master."
"My method of realm cultivation... is a bit unique." Zhou Qing was somewhat embarrassed, "It's based on drawing the strengths of many schools, requiring the observation of others' realms for improvement, somewhat of a hodgepodge. So—"
Before he could finish, understanding flashed in Lin Jingtang's eyes, "I see."
Her lips curved slightly, "Consider it done."
Zhou Qing's eyes flashed with a spark, "Then I must thank you, Madam."
"It's nothing worth mentioning." Lin Jingtang chatted briefly with Zhou Qing, then gracefully got up and left.
Once her figure disappeared, Zhou Qing opened the jade jar.
