The gentle glow of night pearls illuminated the three-foot squared treasury.
The air carried a faint musty scent due to long-term lack of ventilation.
Jiang Ning's silhouette slowly appeared beside Ji Minghao, his gaze calmly surveying the prince's treasury.

The stone chamber's walls had only three rows of black wooden shelves against them, with two rows completely empty. On the remaining shelf, six items were scattered, each emitting a faint glow from jade boxes.
In the deepest corner of the stone chamber, a long, scabbard-less, dark sword hung on the wall; its blade was ancient and faintly had blood-colored patterns swirling beneath.
Beside it hung a large bow, as well as a long knife.
