In this chapter, we are introduced to the "modest sect", a group of warriors who are dedicated to destroying the "flame palace." The group's leader, a jixia scholar named Qinwunian, compares the emperor realm to a "standard emperor realm" . The scholar says that the dragon king's heritage has been absorbed into the emperor's realm, and that the emperor has become stronger since the time he allowed the use of the dragon. He adds that the name "modest" is a pity that it has not been recognized by any other sects, since the name is so well-known. He says that his modest sect has support from the jixia academy, and his nine sealed dragons city recognizes the sect. He explains that he fears that the flame palace will be able to defeat the modest sect even if linyue is strong because of his background, but he promises to follow him this time. The sect leader says that he has perfected the holy heart pills that he had promised the imperial master, and it is time to give them to the emperor. The young master says that if he needs anything, the academy will do its best to assist him. The palace lord says that donghuangfeiyu, a member of the hanyue ladies palace, has come to lend the young master some help. The prince says that anyone who wants to help the flames can do so, and the prince says he is willing to give it up, so long as it means that he can earn back his hatred.
