The surrender of the Blood Wolf caught Ye Qiu by surprise. He had expected a fight to the death, but the Blood Wolf had lowered his head, concerned for the safety of the Double Wolves of the Shadow Wars.
Ye Qiu set down the already unconscious Double Wolves of the Shadow Wars. They had been used by Ye Qiu as weapons, passed around until they were knocked out. Now, as they were put down, their ordeal was finally over.
The Blood Wolf gave Ye Qiu a deep look, then led the way.
"Who hired you?" Ye Qiu asked, bringing up the question he'd been wanting to ask.
The Blood Wolf turned around, his voice cold, "One cannot betray the person who hires them. It's the ultimate rule in our profession. Don't you know that?"
