Jiang Wei was deeply impressed by Su Wuming's meticulous planning and detailed arrangements. Although the battle was won, everyone did not expect the female shop owner to lead a crowd and surround them. Facing Jiang Wei, the female shop owner felt hesitant, could not bring herself to act, and tried to persuade him to leave. Jiang Wei's identity was revealed, and others spoke frankly, which pained the female shop owner greatly.

She originally had the chance to end everything from above, but in front of Jiang Wei, she did not want to show her cruel side and suppressed her grief. The female shop owner was filled with righteous indignation; they had enjoyed her food and drink, but now they turned against her. This betrayal was unacceptable to her.

The female shop owner confessed that she indeed had the thought of killing everyone present at first, but Jiang Wei's appearance was like a gentle breeze. His extraordinary temperament, coupled with his surprisingly similar appearance to her deceased brother, instantly softened her heart, making it difficult for her to strike the deadly blow. She revealed her true feelings to Su Wuming, disclosing the real purpose of everyone's arrival here – seeking treasure.

All this was due to her family's sudden misfortune, with everyone being killed. Having nowhere else to turn, she chose this dangerous path solely to find the treasure, sustain her livelihood, and avenge her family. Upon hearing this, Su Wuming felt deep sympathy and admiration. He promised to be a guarantor for these martyrs, helping them clear their grievances, regain their innocence, and allow them to live uprightly in the sunlight.

These words, like a warm spring breeze, touched the hearts of some of the former subordinates. They began to waver, considering whether to let go of past grudges and choose a new path. However, at this critical moment, the female shop owner's master, the rude old man who had previously clashed with Su Wuming and others on the road, suddenly appeared.

His expression was stern, and he unhesitatingly ordered his subordinates to surround and annihilate everyone, intending to kill them all. This sudden turn of events instantly escalated the already tense atmosphere, and a struggle concerning life and death thus began. Jiang Wei was extremely anxious, pressing for the whereabouts of the craftsmen. Learning that thirteen craftsmen had been brutally killed, he was furious and vowed to seek justice.

Seeing this, Long Tai wanted to step forward and subdue the arrogant old man, but unexpectedly, a fierce monster emerged halfway, and two brothers instantly perished in its mouth. This monster was incredibly strong, and no one present was its match. Su Wuming, in a moment of quick thinking, asked Fei Jishi about the monster's origin, but Fei Jishi shook his head, not knowing.

Su Wuming recalled from ancient texts that the scent of pine and cypress could cause certain exotic beasts to retreat. He then ordered someone to quickly fetch pine and cypress, and finally, by using their power, killed the monster Fushu.

On the other side, while Long Tai and Jiang Wei were fiercely battling the female shop owner, they unexpectedly discovered that the old man was an imposter, and it was he who had indirectly caused the death of the female shop owner's brother. Besides being astonished, the old man was also betrayed by his disciple, killed in the chaos, and the treasure pearl was also stolen. The female shop owner regarded the old man as a father.

Witnessing his death, her heart turned to ashes. After killing her fellow disciple with her own hands, she looked deeply at Jiang Wei, saying that he closely resembled her deceased brother, and then she leaped off the cliff, causing everyone to sigh with regret. Jiang Wei also felt her plight was tragic and felt pity for her. After the situation calmed down, Lan Juzi exchanged glances with his companion, intending to assassinate Lu Lingfeng in the chaos.

Long Tai sacrificed himself bravely to save Lu Lingfeng. Lu Lingfeng searched Lan Juzi and found a secret letter, speculating that someone from the Eastern Palace wanted his life. Jiang Wei gifted Lu Lingfeng and his party the horses that Fei Jishi had seen, to show his gratitude. Three days later, as Lu Lingfeng and the others were about to leave, Jiang Wei entrusted him with sending the relics to their rightful place, to comfort the spirits of the deceased.

Jiang Wei planned to interrogate Long Tai early the next day, but noticed that Fei Jishi's expression was unusual. Unexpectedly, Long Tai actually escaped his restraints with Fei Jishi's assistance, causing the interrogation to end without result. Su Wuming noticed that although Fei Jishi had been tied up all night, he had a look of delight on his face. In his heart, he knew that Fei Jishi must have secretly helped Long Tai escape.

Along the way, Liu Yudi attempted bloodletting therapy to cure a chronic illness. They happened to encounter Fei Jishi and his party. Although they felt curious, Liu Yudi refused the treatment, so everyone continued forward. After several days of travel, everyone arrived at Qianchongdu. Lu Lingfeng wanted to cross the river but was told by the boatman that there was no boat available. The boatman's strange gaze conveyed a chilling coldness that made everyone present feel uneasy. This situation further added to the difficulty and uncertainty of the journey.
