The Confucian leaders discuss the assassination attempt, it’s implication for them, and the impending visit by the prince. In the Mirage, Star Wraith attacks Tianming, but is stopped by a powerful force originating from Yue-er, even though she is still under the control of the Moon Goddess. The Mohists discuss ways of freeing Dao Zhi and Pao Ding from Gnawing Teeth Prison, the only prison to successfully hold Shengqi. Compounding their difficulties, it was designed by Old Master Jiang Ziya based on the Mysterious Gates Escaping Armour Technique and its whereabouts is unknown. Dao Zhi mentally retraces his steps from the entrance of the prison to his cell and then pulls a thread from his clothes and begins weaving it. Ge Nie and Wei Zhuang use a Yin-Yang snake technique to find the location of the prison – under a seaside cliff. Zifang asks Wei Zhuang to help them with the prison rescue. Surprisingly he agrees and Ge Nie offers to go with him.
