Zhu Jia says does not know the source of the Shennong Order which he shows to Ge Nie and Wei Zhuang so they leave Shennong Hall. Meanwhile Grand Master Xiaomeng is meditating when Taoists try to retrieve a box she stole from the Human Clan Taoists (Season 5, Episode 4). Xiaomeng recognizes the Taoist attackers as disciples of the "traitorous Muxu Zi" of the Human Clan and easily kills them. At the Drunken Dream House, master thief Ji Bu speaks to Lian Yi, a woman he desires and has sent numerous gifts that lie unopened, vainly seeking some sign of affection from her before he departs on a mission. Just after he leaves, Lady Hua Ying arrives. Ge Nie and Wei Zhuang speculate that the creator of the Shennong Order must have connections within the Empire's courts. A rider from Lieshan Hall asks Ge Nie and Wei Zhuang to meet his leader Tian Meng, a rival of Zhu Jia for being the Xia Kui. When they arrive at Lieshan Hall, they find everyone dead, they see a motionless Tian Meng standing and looking out the window. Elsewhere, the eunuch Zhao Gao is seen pouring himself some wine and chuckling about whether or not the divine Peasant School is able to live forever.
