Wolf Boy is seen escaping from the general's room after saving the wolf cub. However, when the general is found dead, orders to hunt Wolf Boy down are issued.

Ma Ying saves the princess because he is indebted to her family. Meanwhile, Ma Jun captures Wolf Boy after stealing Zhai Xing's bell to lure him out.

Gu Qing Ping gets acquainted with Zhai Xing and leaves an impression on her with his maturity and insights. However, Zhao Xing is unable to forget Wolf Boy and sets off to find someone with an extensive knowledge of wolves.

Gu Qing Ping suspects Zhai Xing is still alive as her bronze bell is not found on any of the burnt corpses. Meanwhile, emperor Chu Kui sacrifices general Ma Ying to push the Ma army to fight the Jin state.

Prince Bo and Zhai Xing arrive at the capital just in time before Feng Cheng launches an attack. Zhai Xing shows him and his sister the evidence that implicates Gu Ping Qing and the Jin state.
