The heavenly emperor tells the patriarchs of the city that he has killed one of their warriors and that he will not stop unless the warrior is dead. The patriarchs tell him that they will let the matter rest if they leave, but that if they stay, he will kill many of their men. He tells hongdou to hang in there, but the old man tells him to stop dreaming, because they need to act now. He says that everything that happens in the city concerns him, and that if he does not leave, then he will be killed. He asks the heavenly emperor to hand over the city to him, saying that he still owes the city a large amount of money. The other heavenly emperors are also here to distract them, so they can attack him while he is unprepared. The two warriors are interrupted by the song of the sacred maze. The sacred maze has no intentions of interfering in the affairs of tianzhou, but they have done a favor, and they will protect the little friend for ten years.
