Luo Xiao's beautiful eyes lit up when she heard of the wondrous properties of this treasure. Without hesitation, she flipped her wrist and tucked the treasure into her sachet. She gently patted the sachet with her slender hand and said, "Then I shall take my leave. Master, please await my good news."
With that, she giggled, turned gracefully on her heels, and leaped into the air. Transforming into a streak of ink-black light, she disappeared from the side hall and headed toward the cave mansion.
After arranging matters here, Zhang Yan exited the side hall. Before he reached the main hall, a voice from Qin Nan drifted to his ears. "Yanyi, have you chosen a name for your sword ball?"
Liu Yan Yi replied, "The heavens are constant in their cycles; the moon waxes full only to wane again. Fullness gives way to emptiness, as do human hearts. I believe I must guard against arrogance and complacency, so I have named this sword ball 'Defective Moon.'"
"Defective Moon, what a fine name!"
