In this chapter, we learn that the boy who created the flame lotus is the same boy who made the potion that killed the yun lun sect leader. The elder yun tells us that he has been keeping the potion with him for three years. He says that when he wrote his letter of divorce, he asked his grandfather to follow him as a servant. He tells his grandfather that he would kill him if he took a young leader with him. He also tells him that if he had taken the potion during the duel, it would have killed him. The old man asks if he still remembers him, and the young man says that he does. He explains that they had been searching for the flame of the blue lotus in the snake-men village, but it had disappeared. They sent more men to look for it, but no one found it. Then they sent more people, but they found only one survivor. The young man tells the old man that he took away the flame, killed the sect leader, and left the essence of the flame within his body. He asks if this really had anything to do with him, but the young woman says that she has a clear conscience, and that what she did was what she should do. She tells him not to ask her to help in the future, because she is a good girl, and she will be a good al-chemist.
