In a guest room, a naked Li Huowang sat in a wooden tub. He clutched a triangular dagger with his one remaining arm, taking deep breaths to prepare himself for what was to come.
HUFF… HUFF… HUFF… Li Huowang breathed slowly, calming the tension in his heart.
Once he was completely calm, Li Huowang stuffed a folded cotton towel into his mouth and raised the triangular dagger. He plunged it into his own abdomen.
Blood flowed from the wound into the bathwater, dyeing a large section red. The veins on Li Huowang's forehead bulged, but he ignored the agonizing pain that almost made him pass out. Trembling, he kept digging.
He finally found his stomach. I need to pierce it and see what's inside.
However, Li Huowang suddenly realized he only had one hand now. He simply couldn't perform such an action.
