In the 30th year of Hongwu, Lu Wang City on the northern border was in ruins. Li Dongfang waved his sword with fire and killed many guards. He saw the scar on Zhang Junqing’s neck and thought she had been in prison, so he let her take his sword for revenge.

At night, Li Dongfang removed the cloth from Li Wu’s head and Li Wu recognized him as the person he had knocked out. Li Dongfang saw the scar on Li Wu’s neck and knew he wanted him to destroy the files in the document bank. Li Wu realized that Li Dongfang wanted Yu Ming Suo and wanted to take him to Guan Yin Mountain to get it, but Li Dongfang said he wanted to invite him to dinner. The two went to a restaurant in Ji'e Lane where Li Wu was tied up and could only eat food from a bowl while bowing down. Just then, Uncle Wang and other neighbors from Ji'e Lane rushed out. Uncle Wang offered money to spare Li Wu’s life. Li Dongfang said he brought him here to reward him. Uncle Wang offered his own wine to Li Dongfang who then hinted quietly that if Li Wu didn’t bring Yu Ming Suo, someone would come looking for the neighbors of Ji'e Lane.

Zhang Ji Silk Shop, Song Tianyi told Zhang Junqing about Li Wu and Li Dongfang’s whereabouts. Zhang Junqing said that Li Dongfang was a rebel of Ye Bu Shou and left without asking more questions.

A little boy came looking for Li Wu and found out that he was going to run away. He asked him to take him with him or he would tell on him. Li Wu thought the boy was just going back to pack his bags, but the boy wanted to take the neighbors of Jige Lane with him. Li Wu pretended to arrange it but met Ye Bu Shou in the middle of the road. Ye Bu Shou said that whether Li Wu handed over Yu Ming Suo or not, Li Dongfang would kill the people of Jige Lane. If he gave him Yu Ming Suo, he would kill Li Dongfang for him.

Inside the post station in Jige Lane, Xie Kengran asked the manager if he had seen Li Wu and Li Wu appeared at that moment. Xie Kengran asked Li Wu if he had seen the murderer who killed Wang Kegong. Li Wu told Xie Kengran that if he wanted to catch the real murderer, he could only do it tonight. Xie Kengran sent his subordinates back to Zhenfu Division with an emergency document and followed Li Wu.

Inside Zhenfu Division, Lu Zheng shouted and attracted Si Xiangnan who told Lu Zheng about the contents of the document. Lu Zheng asked Si Xiangnan to go to Guan Yin Mountain for reinforcements, but Si Xiangnan untied Lu Zheng’s rope and gave him three hours. After Lu Zheng left, Si Xiangnan reported that Lu Zheng had escaped from prison and ordered the whole city to arrest him regardless of whether he was dead or alive.

At Guan Yin Mountain, Li Wu told Xie Kengran that the assassin who killed Wang Kegong was Ye Bu Shou and told him the secret of Yu Ming Suo, advising him not to get involved. Xie Kengran said he was willing to pay with his life if he could save Lu Zheng.

In the secret room of the Bell Tower, Zhang Junqing told Yuan Zhongdao the contents of the secret letter. Yuan Zhongdao asked her to go to Guan Yin Mountain to kill Li Dongfang and get Yu Ming Suo back. He would then tell her the secret of Mu’s family.

The next morning, Li Wu and Xie Kengran had just found Yu Ming Suo at Guan Yin Mountain when they saw Li Dongfang walking out from behind a tree and Shu Tang walking out silently from the side. Xie Kengran wanted to take Li Wu and Yu Ming Suo back to Zhenfu Division as evidence. Shu Tang and Xie Kengran started fighting. Li Wu pretended to throw away Yu Ming Suo. Li Dongfang picked it up and found out it was fake. He turned around and fought with Zhang Junqing who had arrived. The two were fighting fiercely when Song Tianyi came to help and successfully killed Li Dongfang. Shu Tang left Xie Kengran behind and rushed over to find that Li Dongfang had already died. Zhang Junqing and Song Tianyi surrounded Li Wu from front and back. Xie Kengran arrived in time to save Li Wu but was injured by a sword. Soon after, Shu Tang also arrived to join the fight. While they were fighting, Xie Kengran wanted to take Li Wu back to Zhenfu Division but soon collapsed on the road. Li Wu wanted to carry Xie Kengran back to the clinic but he died on Li Wu’s back due to his serious injuries. After putting him down, Li Wu heard Lu Zheng’s cry for help and had to hide in the nearby bushes to observe the situation. Lu Zheng saw Xie Kengran’s dead body and was heartbroken. He carried him on his back and followed the Jinyiwei who came to pursue them. Li Wu returned to the dense forest and found a group of Jinyiwei searching the mountain. He quickly ran to the riverbank to wash off the blood on his hands and saw Li Dongfang lying dead beside him.
