Lu Yin took one step and reappeared right in front of Wei Nu. She stared at him in shock. "You?"
Lu Yin barked, "Your wound came from that sword."
Wei Nu's pupils contracted. How did he know? Wait, could that just now have been...?
Lu Yin grabbed for her. "Who does that sword belong to? Who are you scheming against?"
Wei Nu took out Paper Cutting and snipped it in two.
