The next morning, Duan tells his sister that he has used his "frozen sword technique" to "transfer" his son to another place. Duan explains that he wants to return to his home in Shaanxi province, where he can use his "miracle hand technique" of the xiaoo sect to help his son. He tells her that the sandstorm that struck the ancient city has subsided, and that there is no trace of it. The elder duan tells Duan that his son has awakened, and Duan wants to see him. He explains that his spiritual veins are inflamed, and if they collide with one another, his son will die. He says that he is the one who caused his son's death, because he was the one to get the inflammation poison in the first place. He suggests that they give his son a bit of "cold yin spiritual qi" , which will help him temporarily to neutralize the inflammation. He also explains that they should bury his son in a hole and hold a funeral for him.
