The wolf leader tells the young man that he has killed the leader of the wolf pack and that the rest of the wolves will eat him. The young man thanks the wolf leader for his hard work and congratulates him on completing the mission. He tells the leader that he would have killed himself earlier if he had known that the wolves were trying to use his son to draw them out. The leader tells him that the boy is the offspring of a god and that he should be allowed to grow up. He says that the matter of killing Linglan is over and that they can move to the scout academy where they will be protected by the army
