The hidden weapon Mieyin had used was similar to an ancient "pulse gate crossbow," but far more powerful. Though it only fired a few small steel needles, they were coated with deadly poison and launched at speeds surpassing that of a bullet. Without prior warning, it was nearly impossible to dodge.
Yet, Ye Fei had not only caught up to the needles but also intercepted them effortlessly. This left Mieyin utterly terrified—this young man's speed surpassed that of a bullet and by no small margin.
Ye Fei, however, had no time to dwell on Mieyin's shock. After scolding her, he reached out and snatched the hidden weapon from her sleeve with a wave of his hand.
