Ye Jian avoided the covert sentries and went under the roof of the wooden house. She went from the secret outpost to the bushes behind the wooden house.
She went around to the back of the covert sentries and silently climbed in through the window of the wooden house. About three minutes later, she left the wooden house quietly with a faint smell of blood on her body.
