The Scorpion King sent Liu Qianqiao, disguised as Duan Pengju, to test Zhao Jing. As a result, Zhao Jing revealed his true colors. In order to form an alliance with Prince Jin, he shifted all the blame onto the Scorpion King. The Scorpion King was completely disheartened and immediately decided to take revenge.

To thank Liu Qianqiao, he agreed to let Yu Qiufeng rekindle their relationship and gave Liu Qianqiao both a Gu poison and an antidote for the enslavement drug. If Yu Qiufeng was unwilling to give up everything for her, Liu Qianqiao could use the drug to make him eternally submissive to her. Liu Qianqiao wanted to elope with Yu Qiufeng.

Yu Qiufeng made excuses, saying they were both under the Scorpion King's enslavement and that tomorrow was the martial arts conference. Liu Qianqiao understood what he meant and handed him the antidote on the spot, even returning the love token fan she had given him in the past. She urged him to leave White Deer Town forever. Yu Qiufeng tried to give her the antidote instead, but Liu Qianqiao gently declined, tearfully bidding him farewell.

Before leaving, she tore the fan into pieces, severing all ties with Yu Qiufeng. Yu Qiufeng stared at her resolute figure, devastated, but still decisively took the antidote. The Heroes Conference officially commenced. Various sects from the martial world attended. Shen Shen nominated Master Cimu of Shaolin Temple as the Alliance Chief to lead the attack on Ghost Valley. Master Cimu, being a monk, found it inappropriate to lead a violent campaign.

Zhao Jing strongly recommended Mo Huaiyang of the Qingfeng Sword Sect. Mo Huaiyang in turn publicly nominated Zhao Jing and suggested resolving the matter through a martial contest. Everyone agreed. Mo Huaiyang and Zhao Jing squared off in a duel. Their battle was intense and evenly matched, though Zhao Jing clearly held the upper hand. Everyone praised Zhao Jing's martial skills.

Suddenly, Zhou Zishu descended from the sky and mocked Zhao Jing, exposing his crimes: poisoning Gao Chong’s sword and causing Rong Xuan to go mad. In a bid to win, Zhao Jing secretly injured Mo Huaiyang with a hidden weapon, inciting public outrage. Zhao Jing accused Zhou Zishu of being Wen Kexing’s accomplice and falsely claimed that Zhou Zishu gave him the hidden weapon. Zhou Zishu dismissed him with scorn and drew his sword to fight.

Unexpectedly, Wen Kexing flew in and, identifying himself as a disciple of Four Seasons Manor, took Zhou Zishu’s place. Zhou Zishu was stunned to see that Wen Kexing was still alive. Zhao Jing publicly revealed that Wen Kexing was the Chief of Ghost Valley and urged everyone to kill him. Wen Kexing retorted, accusing Zhao Jing of framing him. Shen Shen called for Changing Ghost, Happy Ghost, and others to identify Wen Kexing.

Under the Scorpion King's prior orders, they all denied knowing him. Zhao Jing was furious, realizing that the Scorpion King had betrayed him. To prove his identity, Wen Kexing borrowed the White-Clad Sword from Zhou Zishu and demonstrated his father Zhen Ruyu’s Qiuming Eighteen Techniques, admitting he was Zhen Ruyu’s son, Zhen Yan. The Emei Sect leader doubted him, so Wen Kexing recalled how Emei disciples once jointly made clothes for him when he was a baby.

Zhao Jing accused Wen Kexing of inciting Gao Chong to seize the four pieces of Glazed Armor. Shen Shen furiously rebuked Zhao Jing for tarnishing Gao Chong’s name. Zhao Jing then retaliated, accusing Shen Shen of colluding with Ghost Valley, causing Gao Chong’s death, killing the Mount Tai Sect leader Ao Laizi, and forcing Gao Xiaolian to cause Gao Chong’s suicide. Everyone was shocked and began to talk. Suddenly, Gao Xiaolian appeared and publicly denounced Zhao Jing’s lies.

She exposed his plot to harm Gao Chong and seize the leadership of the Five Lakes Alliance. She listed all of Zhao Jing’s crimes. Zhao Jing tried to argue, but Zhang Chengling produced a letter written by his father Zhang Yusen to Ye Baiyi before his death. The letter detailed Zhao Jing poisoning Rong Xuan through Gao Chong’s sword. Gao Xiaolian brought in Deng Kuan to testify.

Deng Kuan exposed Zhao Jing’s true nature, and the crowd, enraged, unanimously demanded Zhao Jing’s execution. Abandoned by all, Zhao Jing was unwilling to surrender. He swung his sword at Gao Xiaolian. Wen Kexing rushed to protect her, and Zhao Jing attacked him relentlessly. Wen Kexing easily defeated Zhao Jing. When Zhao Jing refused to admit his guilt and tried to stab Wen Kexing, Wen Kexing blocked his throat with his sword, ready to avenge his parents.

The crowd was roused and cheered for Wen Kexing. Zhao Jing laughed maniacally, claiming he had manipulated the martial world for over twenty years and was satisfied. Wen Kexing stabbed him, and the Scorpion King fed him a pill that made him mute for life. Wen Kexing returned the White-Clad Sword to Zhou Zishu, expressing his desire to go home together and promising to explain everything afterward. Zhang Chengling wanted to return to Four Seasons Manor with them.

Mo Huaiyang suddenly stepped forward to denounce Wen Kexing as the Chief of Ghost Valley and demanded his death. Wen Kexing admitted his identity and said it was all thanks to those present that he ended up in Ghost Valley—none of them helped Zhen Ruyu and his wife back then. Mo Huaiyang wanted to settle all past scores with Wen Kexing, but Ye Baiyi suddenly arrived to stop him.
