"Chop him down!"
Xiao Wu had a busy night. First he was reprimanded by the Shopkeeper, then he had to grab a kitchen knife and personally chop down a Dancing Girl who had been intimate with him at the neighbor's Red Sleeves, splattering blood all over himself.
At this moment, while still enraged, he threw the formidable Bone Knife with great force. The knife spun and buzzed in the air, heading straight for the Crown Prince's face.
In the urgency of the moment, Li Xuan drew his sword from its scabbard, and with a deft touch on the handle of the spinning knife, his wrist gave a slight shake, causing the Bone Knife to rotate around his sword tip.
With another flick of his wrist, Li Xuan sent the Bone Knife back where it came from, straight at Xiao Wu's chest and abdomen.
Xiao Wu, shocked and pale, arched back in a back bend, narrowly avoiding the Bone Knife as it whizzed past the tip of his nose.
