Ye Wudao lay down in his clothes, but after a while, he sat up from the sofa. He fetched his rattan wood box, opened it, took out a handful of throwing needles, followed by a bottle filled with liquid, and put all the needles into the bottle. Then he screwed the lid back on and, after ensuring everything was properly stored, he lay down again.
Ye Wudao didn't need to think about it to know that a fierce battle was definitely going to take place the next day. He was merely preparing for tomorrow. The liquid in the bottle was a vicious poison that sealed the throat upon contact with blood. If someone's skin were to be pricked by his needles, even a master would be forced to lay down before Ye Wudao.
Soon, Ye Wudao fell asleep on the sofa, but Zhao Xiaoman couldn't sleep at all. She and her twin sister, Zhao Xiaodie, were born mere moments apart, which made her the elder sister.
