「Just then.」
The room's wooden door was gently pushed open, and a figure walked in.
The newcomer was a middle-aged, plump man with salt-and-pepper hair, wearing the same Deacon's Robe. He had a friendly smile on his face and held a stack of bound papers.
Upon seeing him, the three people in the room quickly stood up. With polite smiles, they greeted him, "Senior Brother Ma, you're here!"
This Senior Brother Ma chuckled and waved his hand dismissively. He walked straight to the table, found a chair, and sat down. Placing the papers on the table, he asked casually, "What were you all talking about just now? You seemed so engrossed. What, were you also discussing that new prodigy from the Xuanzhen Sect, Yang Jing?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Ligang, the round-faced Steward, and the female Steward all froze. With faces full of confusion, they asked in unison, "Who is Yang Jing?"
