In this chapter, Long Yuyin's mother tells her son that he should not push the old man around anymore. She also tells him to go ahead and have a child with the new man, since she likes him so much. The old man, she tells him, used to be her father's lover, but he was killed by the sect. Now that she's here, she'll teach him everything he needs to know. Aunty tells the young man that she has an idea, but she doesn't know if she should tell him or not. She tells him that he's planning for the patriarch position of the dragonseal clan, which is a very important position. The young man tells her that he has misjudged her, and that she should have seen that the sect has too many factions.
