"You said you would be able to retrieve your powers if you get your hands on your sword." Jiang Yichen said as he placed Mingyu's sword on a table.

He had taken Mingyu to the Golden Lotus brothel, and had paid for a private use of the pavilion in the garden area.

Li Mei, seeing such a huge amount, immediately agreed without any fuss, closing off the pavilion to the other customers.

Mingyu just stood there, looking at his sword with hesitation. Doubt was starting to fill his mind on whether his sword could truly restore his lost powers.

"Why are you standing still? Pick it up and unsheathe it already." Jiang Yichen impatiently said, after patiently waiting for while.

Compelled by Jiang Yichen, Mingyu took hesitant steps towards the table, but when he got close to the sword, Moon Shadow began emitting a silver glow, and it slowly rose from the table, floating in midair.
