In this scene, we learn that the tao cannot bear to see the "grand gestures" of the warriors. The snot-nosed man tells the emperor that the warriors will not stand against him if he shows his due respect to them. The emperor says that he is doing his best to help the warriors, and that he himself is a human being, so he does not benefit from standing against him for the sake of human beings. He says that if he leaves him no choice, then he leaves me no choice. Then, the emperor says, he must die today, too. The thunder, he says, will not stop the warriors from attacking him. He asks the thunder to get his consent before attacking his apprentice, and the thunder does not allow the warriors to stop him from attacking them. Then the thunder comes up again, and this time the warriors attack the lao-bai. He is amazed at how powerful the thunder is, and he decides to use it to have some fun with the thunder.
