Su Wuming carefully read Di Gong's old cases, deeply feeling that Lu Lingfeng had grown into an excellent detective. Suddenly felt something was off to the side, turned back to see Ying Tao standing there, her face full of curiosity and dissatisfaction. Ying Tao questioned Su Wuming, asking why he had broken his vow of reclusion and instead taken the position of Shaoqing of Dali Temple.

Su Wuming gave a wry smile, saying he couldn't help himself, and then asked Ying Tao to help him send messages to three people using jianghu methods. On the other side, Lao Jia and others wanted to capture the person impersonating Su Wuming, but were surprised to find that the person who came was Su Wuming himself, and a misunderstanding was thus resolved.

Things change rapidly in the world, Su Wuming and Ying Tao once again joined hands to embark on a new journey. Su Wuming unexpectedly met three brothers in the marketplace who called themselves "followers of the divine detective"; they enthusiastically praised Su Wuming as the true divine detective, which even surprised Su Wuming himself. These three brothers were full of anticipation, hoping to fight alongside Su Wuming again and jointly uncover the mysteries of the case.

To fulfill their wish, Su Wuming decided to lead this group of like-minded brothers to the legendary ghost market, where countless secrets and clues were hidden. After some searching, they locked onto a suspicious-looking old man, and through questioning learned clues about the dead person on the ground.

Su Wuming quickly took out Lu Lingfeng's portrait for comparison; after confirming that the deceased was not Lu Lingfeng, everyone had just breathed a sigh of relief when they suddenly heard Pei Xijun's call for help. Su Wuming immediately led everyone to the rescue and successfully saved Pei Xijun. Afterwards, he took the portrait back to the old man's home; under clever guidance, the old man became suspicious of the portrait's authenticity.

Su Wuming used this opportunity to reveal that Pei Xijun might have created the portrait based on images from the mural in Jingjiang Temple, which led to the misunderstanding and indirectly affected Lu Lingfeng's situation. After carefully examining the four mythical beasts on the temple mural, Su Wuming was filled with emotion; he believed these mythical beasts were more suited to exist in legends.

At the same time, he greatly praised Qin Xiaobai's painting skills, especially the creativity and technique of incorporating Central Plains elements into Buddhist murals, which was truly astonishing. Before he finished speaking, Qin Xiaobai entered the scene, sensed that something was amiss but pretended to be calm, continued painting, and deliberately struck his junior apprentice beside him, causing a chaotic scene.

Sun Wang's father mistakenly believed Qin Xiaobai was the murderer of his son, became emotional, and wanted to commit violence. At a crucial moment, Su Wuming stepped forward, quelled the dispute, firmly believed there were no ghosts or spirits in the world, and vowed to catch the real culprit. Qin Xiaobai was not grateful for Su Wuming's help; instead, he was attracted by Pei Xijun's painting talent and wanted to take her as his apprentice.

After being rejected, he was quite displeased, believing that art should not be constrained by emotions. Pei Xijun left the scene under Ying Tao's persuasion. Seeing Qin Xiaobai's indifferent attitude, Su Wuming secretly planned to win over this talented painter. Qin Xiaobai was also no ordinary person; he saw through Su Wuming's intentions, thanked him politely, and left resolutely, leaving Su Wuming alone in deep thought.

To ensure Qin Xiaobai's safety and the smooth progress of the investigation, Su Wuming secretly deployed people to monitor his whereabouts and specifically instructed the trackers to act cautiously, as Qin Xiaobai was arrogant and might have an extreme reaction if he discovered he was being monitored.

This matter also angered the Princess; she was deeply furious at those who obstructed the painter's work and disregarded Su Wuming's authority, and at the same time, she was even more worried about Lu Lingfeng's safety. On the other side, Lu Lingfeng survived with Fei Jishi's rescue, but upon hearing the news of Guo Zhuang's "resurrection," he felt complicated emotions.

Su Wuming, through investigation, discovered that Sun Wang's death was related to Madam Ma, so he approached Madam Ma under Lu Lingfeng's name, attempting to extract clues. Madam Ma saw through his intention but cleverly directed Su Wuming toward the precious horses, intending to change the subject. At the same time, Chang Fang, Chen Shi, and Zhang Qian's apprehension towards Su Wuming deepened, and they attempted to avoid him.

And Su Wuming went alone to the ghost market to search for Lu Lingfeng's whereabouts. After some effort, he finally learned Fei Jishi's news from a little beggar and forced him to lead the way. Facing Guo Zhuang's "body," Lu Lingfeng's heart was filled with self-reproach and regret; he hated his incompetence and decided to take Guo Zhuang away alone. Fei Jishi immediately reported when he discovered Lu Lingfeng was missing. Finally, the General found the unconscious Lu Lingfeng; before losing consciousness, he remorsefully expressed his guilt towards his Jinwu Guard brothers.
