Yin Hu's expression froze: "You are—"
Meng Qianqian turned around and fixed her gaze on him: "I…"
Lu Lingxiao also heard that "Yin Hu," but he didn't realize Meng Qianqian identified him by sound; instead, he thought she recognized his face.
Though, he hadn't figured out how she saw it either.
He pressed his chest, stood up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and looked at the man: "Could it be another impostor?"
Yin Hu ignored him, flicked the broken bamboo, and seized both Meng Qianqian's token and Brocade Spring Saber.
Glancing at them, he said, "A court official?"
He discarded the broken bamboo and reached out to remove the mask on Meng Qianqian's face.
This time, Meng Qianqian fought back, retreating with a light step of her toe.
Yin Hu casually plucked a bamboo leaf and shot it toward Meng Qianqian.
With a flick of her wrist, Meng Qianqian unleashed a silver needle, breaking through the leaf and aiming straight for his brow.
