The sky gradually darkened.
On the rooftop of Ye Xiu's villa, two people lay prone, as motionless as statues. They were none other than the Demon North Duo, Feng Ping and Yan Ni.
"It's already seven-thirty. Why isn't Ye Xiu back yet?" Feng Ping said impatiently.
"Have some patience. Ye Xiu is the Xuanse Medicine King, after all. He must have a lot of social events. Maybe he'll be out until midnight before he gets back…"
Yan Ni hadn't finished speaking when she suddenly saw a car approaching. She asked softly, "Is that Ye Xiu driving?"
Neither she nor Feng Ping had ever seen Ye Xiu before.
"Anyone coming here at this time must be Ye Xiu," Feng Ping stated with conviction. "Get ready. We strike to kill in one blow, then sever his left arm and leave immediately."
As he spoke, he coiled his body like a tiger ready to pounce, able to leap at any moment and snap its prey's neck. Yan Ni did the same.
The car pulled up in front of the villa, and Ye Xiu and Qin Qing got out.
