"To think Wu Shu would strike so quickly... not even sparing Mie Lin a second glance," he murmured.
He had instructed Mie Lin to feign weakness—to provoke Wu Shu’s arrogance and force his hand. And it worked.

Still, he reminded himself, It’s better to overestimate an enemy than to underestimate one.
He had made that mistake once before—in his past life.
Never again.
