Luo Ning noticed that the attitude of Zu Xiao and his brother was decent and decided not to make things difficult for them.

She nodded, "Alright, let me take a look at Young Master Zu as well."

Zu Yu smiled and asked Luo Ning, "Master Luo, do I need to sit closer to you?"

Luo Ning shook her head, "No need, I can see from here."

Luo Chun'er rolled her eyes and muttered under her breath, "You're just pretending."

However, no one present paid attention to her.

Although Luo Yuefeng also thought Luo Ning was a bit pretentious, she was even more disdainful of Luo Chun'er for embarrassing herself.

As long as you're aware of it internally, why complain out loud, thoughtless.

Luo Ning had an even lower opinion of people like Luo Chun'er.

While Luo Yuefeng was examining Zu Yu, she scrutinized him as well.

She directly told Zu Yu, "Young Master Zu, when you were fifteen, you encountered a kidnapping. While escaping, you ate that Lingzhi, which over-supplemented your Yang, causing your body's excessive Yang Fire, triggering an outbreak of your constitution."

She then subtly reminded him, "The current method you're using to drain Yang, while it does consume the excess Yang Fire, can cause physical weakness, expending your body's resources and doing more harm than good."

Luo Ning's mere two statements left Zu Xiao and his brother wide-eyed and incredulous, clearly hitting the mark with her words.

With just those two sentences, the strength comparison between her and Luo Yuefeng was immediately apparent.

Luo Yuefeng needed Zu Xiao to sit close, take the pulse, and carefully examine the hand and face to reach a broad conclusion.

But Luo Ning, just sitting at a distance, was able to precisely point out the problem which was quite impressive.

Zu Yu had been kidnapped on a Mountain back then, and he fled when there was an opportunity, but got lost in the wilderness.

Later, starving to the point of desperation, he inadvertently found a Lingzhi and ate it raw.

Although he survived hunger and held on until rescuers arrived, the Lingzhi's excessive Yang enhancement completely triggered an outbreak of his constitution.

The only people aware of him eating the Lingzhi were Zu Xiao and his brother, and the doctor at the time.

The doctor was now far overseas and could not have secretly revealed this detail to Luo Ning.

Moreover, her subsequent reminder was another hidden message.

Previously, Zu Xiao had invited a Feng Shui Master to examine his brother's illness; the master suggested a method to have Zu Yu engage with women to release Yang Fire.

Initially, Zu Yu refused to do so, but after turning eighteen, his condition worsened to a near-death state.

Zu Xiao had no other choice and paid for a regular female partner for him.

After the encounters, his condition was indeed somewhat controlled, and the sensation of his blood vessels about to burst throughout his body was greatly reduced.

Yet his overall complexion deteriorated significantly.

This heightened Zu Xiao's concern even more.

This, in discovering Yi Lingfeng's recovery, was exactly why he hurried to invite Luo Ning.

Only the two siblings knew of this, indicating that Luo Ning deduced it herself.

Zu Yu blushed, feeling a little embarrassed, "Master Luo, you're truly remarkable to see all this."

"I, I had no choice, each day felt like I was going to explode, which is why I did it." He hurried to explain.

His brother had previously made things clear with the woman, and she agreed to help for the money.

Of course, having to rely on such a method to survive left an unpleasant taste in his heart.

Luo Ning nodded, "This method only works short-term; it's a temporary fix, not a cure, and it's damaging to the body with serious repercussions, so it's best you stop using it."

Zu Yu nodded, "I've been feeling increasingly weak lately; I'll stop using this method."

He now had a hollow feeling, yet was bursting with energy at night, needing to vent, which was detrimental.

Zu Xiao became anxious, "Are this method's side effects serious? Can it be remedied?"

His only family left was his brother, and being twenty years older, he practically raised him as a son.

Thus, he'd gladly pay any price.

Luo Ning reassured him, "It's okay, as your brother only started using this method after eighteen, and it's been less than six months, the side effect is mainly daily weakness, which isn't too serious."

"Taking a few Qi Nourishing Pills will replenish him."

Upon hearing this, Zu Xiao finally breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good."

Compared to Luo Yuefeng from the Luo Family, he now trusted Luo Ning more.

Seeing is believing, Luo Ning indeed surpassed Luo Yuefeng.

Sitting there, Luo Yuefeng maintained her previous aloof expression, not revealing whether she was pleased or not.

Yet, internally, she was surprisingly astonished.

She had previously heard from Luo Chun'er that Luo Ying fancied a small celebrity and pestered for autographs.

At the hotel earlier today, she spotted Luo Ning from afar for a moment.

As a result, when they met at the Zu Family, she didn't take Luo Ning seriously, despite feeling a sense of rivalry.

But now, she realized she had underestimated Luo Ning, who seemed more skilled in divination than herself.

After all, she needed to pulse check and face-read to assess Zu Xiao's condition, while Luo Ning could discern and divulge more detailed and hidden aspects at a glance.

By pointing out the subsequent reminder, she could roughly guess what method was being used.

When she pulse-checked Zu Xiao, she detected contradictions in his condition; his Yang Fire appeared controlled recently, yet his body became weaker.

Her previous confusion now understood, it turned out to be due to gender balancing methods.

Unfortunately, Zu Yu's body was already frail and couldn't withstand such consumption, making the effort counterproductive.

Although Luo Ning cleared up her doubts, she didn't feel a sliver of happiness, but rather an emerging sense of crisis.

She looked at Luo Ning and asked, "This Master Luo, do you have a method to completely cure Young Master Zu?"

She currently ranked first among the younger generation in the Luo Family; even many elders weren't her equals.

Thus, she could judge that Zu Yu's condition was very special, apart from her uncle who might help, others couldn't possibly achieve it.

Luo Ning could discern the implication in Luo Yuefeng's words.

She was hinting that even if she could identify these issues, it would be meaningless if she couldn't fully cure Zu Yu's condition.

After all, Luo Yuefeng previously mentioned that her uncle might offer a cure.

Luo Ning replied, "Complete cure is indeed not easy, but it's not impossible."

Before Luo Yuefeng could respond, Zu Xiao eagerly asked, "Master Luo, you have a method to cure my brother's condition?"

Luo Ning didn't hold back, "I can, but it will take time."

"How long will it take?" Zu Xiao questioned again.

Previously in the hospital, doctors said that if his brother continued this way, he wouldn't live past twenty-five.

If it took seven or eight years, that would be problematic.

Luo Ning answered truthfully, "With special treatments combined with pills specifically dispersing Yang and replenishing Qi and blood, it would take approximately six months."
