The large sword case in Xu Fengnian's hand was made of an uncut piece of thousand-year-old red sandalwood.

Xu Fengnian carefully wiped the sword case with a silk cloth, and the polished exquisite sandalwood seemingly surrounded by a subtle aura.

Listening to "Flying Sword of Dunhuang", Xu Fengnian spotted a bamboo ball in the air. Qing Niao jumped on the wall and caught the ball so that it didn't fall into the courtyard.

Xu Fengnian took it from Qing Niao and asked her to take the sword case back into the room. There was soon a knock on the door. Xu Fengnian handed the ball to the expected visitor and asked with a smile, "Who kicked that ball so high? That was powerful."

Wang Chudong pointed at herself with her slender finger, looking proud.

She had changed into riding breeches, black boots, and a tight-sleeve gown with a girdle around the waist.
