All the elder and senior cultivators arrive at Junwu Academy as summoned. Feng Wu gets tired of waiting for Lin Yuan to turn up. She decides to go to the Library Pavilion but finds Dean Ning there. He has been stabbed in the heart. Gao Wei arrests her for murdering Dean Ning. Huang Li frames her by lying that she was seen loitering near the crime scene earlier. Feng Wu is put in the detention room. Qing Luan had followed Dean Ning after he had treated the King. She reported to the Queen that the event would help them to remove Feng Wu. The Queen wants her to keep an eye on Lin Yuan. Lin Yuan is furious that Feng Wu is being detained. But he is stopped from visiting her and confined to the King’s room. Ming Ye learns about Feng Wu’s predicament and goes to save her. But she refuses to leave as that will make her look guilty. She tells Ming Ye to cooperate with Lin Yuan to solve the matter. Ming Ye barges into the palace to look for Lin Yuan who goes out of the King’s room to check on the commotion. Qing Luan is alone with the King. Lin Yuan claims that Ming Ye is a friend when he notices that Ming Ye is bringing a message from Feng Wu. The King suddenly comes out of his room when he should have been unconscious. He finds it perplexing that Lin Yuan and Ming Ye could be friends. Ming Ye has a plan to lure out the real killer. They spread the news that Dean Ning is still alive. The real killer re-appears to finish the job but it is a trap. Lin Yuan and Ming Ye combine their forces to capture him. The killer turns out to be Master Wu. He takes Gao Wei hostage and retreats to the library. Master Wu demands to see Feng Wu. Gao Wei is released when Feng Wu arrives. Lin Yuan enters the library with her. Master Wu relates that Sima Yun Niang was the woman he loved. She was also Lin Yuan’s first sword-fighting teacher. Years ago, Dean Ning tricked him out of his position as the dean of Junwu Academy by giving the excuse that he lacked the necessary background. He also wouldn’t have the clout to make Yun Niang the first female teacher as that had been her dream. So, Master Wu left the place disillusioned. Later, he picked up Lord Mu’s manuscript by chance and become a powerful cultivator. So, he can sense that Feng Wu is Lord Mu’s disciple and he would never hurt her. Yun Niang subsequently resigned from the academy due to differences in opinion and cultivated at the Library Pavilion. Later, she died in a fire when the library was burned down with no corpse to show for it. Master Wu killed Dean Ning because he is angry for what the latter did years ago. He entraps Lin Yuan and Feng Wu in a secret chamber before venturing outside to battle it out. Lin Yuan suspects the secret chamber used to belong to Lord Mu. He tells Feng Wu that he will help her to awaken her master. They try to look for a way out of the chamber. Feng Wu notices a painting of Lord Mu on a wall. Her spirit ring lights up and the wall opens up. (Source: DramaSlot)
