Although the two eagles were siblings, they didn't look at all alike—their bodies were entirely black, but their heads had distinctly different colors: one was white, the other black.
Thus, Ye Jiu named the white one Ye Bai and the black one Ye Hei.
Great, the names were perfect.
He took a quilt from the bed and spread it on the floor for the eagles to sleep on, then Ye Jiu contentedly lay down on his own bed.
Perhaps it was because she had been abducted the previous night, but Sikong Mo, who had insisted on taking her out for martial training the past two evenings, did not come tonight.
Glancing at the sky outside, Ye Jiu figured he probably wouldn't be coming tonight.
So, Ye Jiu excitedly got out of bed and walked over to the two eagles, crouching in front of them and saying, "Ye Bai, Ye Hei, can you two go out and guard the door for me, and not let anyone in?"
