Yang Kang took Mu Nianci to meet Elder Jian, Elder Peng, and Elder Liang of the Beggar Clan. Mu Nianci was very happy to learn that Yang Kang had joined the Beggar Clan. Yang Kang also stated that he would definitely realize his ideals and ambitions in the Beggar Clan and would not disappoint Mu Nianci. Yang Kang wanted to marry Mu Nianci on the day of the Beggar Clan assembly.

With the help of the Beggar Clan's preparations, Yang Kang and Mu Nianci were ready to get married that day. Yang Kang handed the painting containing clues to the Wumu Testament to Wanyan Honglie. Upon learning that the testament was on Iron Palm Peak, Wanyan Honglie was very happy. The Beggar Clan had always been an obstacle to the Jin people's southward advance.

Yang Kang said that if the entire Beggar Clan were to move south, it might save them a lot of trouble. Yang Kang stated that he would arrange this matter after he took over the position of Beggar Clan Chief. Ouyang Feng came to find Yang Kang, looking for Ouyang Ke. He returned to Niujia Village but could not find any trace of Ouyang Ke, and even the clues they used for contact usually had disappeared.

In his anger, Ouyang Feng believed Wanyan Honglie had not protected Ouyang Ke well and originally intended to kill him. Yang Kang stepped forward and stated that Guo Jing had killed Ouyang Ke. Yang Kang told Ouyang Feng that Guo Jing and Huang Rong were currently in his hands, and he was about to take over the position of Beggar Clan Chief.

He only regretted that he had no special skills and felt like he was walking on thin ice, hoping to become Ouyang Feng's disciple to learn skills and unify the Beggar Clan. Yang Kang and Mu Nianci held their wedding in the Beggar Clan and became husband and wife. Mu Nianci, dressed in red, waited for Yang Kang in the bridal chamber.

She told him to attend the Beggar Clan assembly first, and she would wait for him in the room. At the Beggar Clan assembly, Elder Peng announced the news of Hong Qigong's death to everyone. Yang Kang also appeared before the Beggar Clan members and falsely accused Huang Yaoshi, Huang Rong, and Guo Jing of causing Hong Qigong's death.

Lu Youjiao did not believe what Yang Kang said, thinking that Hong Qigong and Huang Yaoshi were good friends and would not try to kill each other brutally. The Clean-Clothes Faction elders hoped that Yang Kang, who held the Dog-Beating Stick, would take over the position of Beggar Clan Chief. However, the Dirty-Clothes Faction members believed that Hong Qigong had previously intended for Elder Lu Youjiao to succeed him as the Beggar Clan Chief.

The two sides argued endlessly, but because Yang Kang claimed to have Hong Qigong's dying wish and held the Dog-Beating Stick, the Dirty-Clothes Faction could only acknowledge Yang Kang's position as Chief. Yang Kang ascended the Xuanyuan Platform and successfully took over the position of Beggar Clan Chief.

Afterward, he ordered his men to bring Guo Jing and Huang Rong before everyone, accusing the two of killing Hong Qigong and stating that he would kill them today to avenge Hong Qigong. Lu Youjiao and others did not believe that Guo Jing and Huang Rong would kill Hong Qigong and hoped Yang Kang would investigate the matter clearly. Guo Jing and Huang Rong had their acupuncture points sealed, rendering them unable to speak.

Yang Kang threatened Huang Rong's life to force Guo Jing to confess to his accusations. Seeing that Guo Jing and Huang Rong were about to lose their lives at the hands of the Beggar Clan, the Iron Palm Sect members arrived to pay their respects upon entering the mountain. Lu Youjiao seized the opportunity to persuade Yang Kang to temporarily imprison Guo Jing and Huang Rong and deal with them after entertaining the Iron Palm Sect.

Qiu Qianren brought his people to the Beggar Clan. Upon learning that the Beggar Clan had a new Chief taking office today, he brought countless treasures as a special gesture of offering. Qiu Qianren stated that these treasures were gifts from the Sixth Prince of the Jin people and tried to persuade the Beggar Clan members to move south.

Yang Kang also agreed to the Beggar Clan moving south, but Lu Youjiao believed that the Beggar Clan's foundation in the north could not be easily abandoned, and the Jin people's gifts should certainly not be accepted. The Clean-Clothes Faction obeyed Yang Kang's orders, but Lu Youjiao firmly refused to withdraw from the north, and some members of the Beggar Clan also vowed not to become traitors.

Seeing that he could not succeed, Qiu Qianren killed two Beggar Clan members as a demonstration. Guo Jing unexpectedly comprehended the profound mysteries of the Big Dipper constellation by observing the changes in the stars. Using this insight, he integrated his understanding and finally mastered the Nine Yin Manual. He used his internal energy to break free from his restraints, then rescued Huang Rong and headed to the Beggar Clan assembly.

Qiu Qianren was about to kill Lu Youjiao, who swore not to move south. Guo Jing appeared and saved Lu Youjiao. Fighting against Guo Jing, Qiu Qianren found that this person had extraordinary martial arts skills. Since the Mount Hua Sword Conference was approaching, he did not want to engage in further combat with Guo Jing. He chose to leave the Beggar Clan with his men instead of following Yang Kang's plan.

It turned out that before this, the real Qiu Qianren had his younger brother, Qiu Qianzhang, impersonate him to deal with the Mongol delegation. Only because the Beggar Clan assembly was about to start fighting did he personally come to this place. Yang Kang had Elder Peng lead his men to surround and attack Guo Jing and Huang Rong, determined to kill them. Guo Jing helped Huang Rong escape the Beggar Clan's encirclement.

Huang Rong used Beggar Clan martial arts to snatch the Dog-Beating Stick from Yang Kang's hand and informed the Beggar Clan members that Hong Qigong had not died, but that Yang Kang was deliberately spreading rumors here. Holding the Dog-Beating Stick, Huang Rong told everyone in the Beggar Clan that she was the successor of the Beggar Clan personally appointed by Hong Qigong. Huang Rong told everyone that Yang Kang's real surname was Wanyan, that he was the son of the Sixth Prince of the Great Jin, and that he had come to seize power and destroy the Song dynasty.
