When Gu Qianqiu activated the mechanism on the hilt of the Azure Night Sword, everyone watched without blinking.
Yet upon seeing the empty hidden compartment, they could not help but sigh in disappointment.
Chu Tian and Chu Qing exchanged a glance, each seeing the understanding in the other's eyes.
