Episode 3 recap: Ye Wu Zhi wants to avenge his senior brother.
Twenty years ago, when Yan Si Fang was four years old, he lived in Tuoba Village. One day, his parents were about to leave, and his mother, with tears in her eyes, held onto Yan Si Fang and didn't let go. However, the time for their journey had come, and his mother followed his father and left. Yan Si Fang was reluctant and followed behind, but his mother forbade him from crossing the threshold, promising to return in ten days and instructing him to listen to the village chief.
Yan Si Fang had his meals at the village chief's house, and initially, the village chief treated him well. However, as time passed and Yan Si Fang's parents didn't return even after fifteen days, rumors started circulating in the village, suggesting that they hadn't gone to purchase goods but had run away with the money. Although the village chief didn't blame Yan Si Fang directly, his attitude became less warm, and he no longer invited Yan Si Fang to have meals with him. Yan Si Fang's inherent pride prevented him from submitting to the village chief, so he went to eat at other people's houses instead. Worried that Yan Si Fang would go hungry, the village chief secretly came out to look for him. In the end, Yan Si Fang returned to the village chief's house for a meal, which somewhat reassured the village chief and made him feel that the food at his own house was still appealing.
As Yan Si Fang reminisced about the past, he couldn't help but wonder if he wouldn't have been hurt if he hadn't trusted anyone. Therefore, he appeared particularly rational and didn't trust anyone. Although Meng San Xi had friends, his friend Bei Xiao Hai had been killed, and now he had nowhere to go in Mu Yun City. Based on his understanding of Yan Si Fang, he knew that Yan Si Fang must have left himself a way out. So he grabbed Yan Si Fang and asked him to take him along. Yan Si Fang only wanted to act alone, but to his surprise, Ye Wu Zhi also grabbed onto his sleeve, looking at him with complete trust. She even resorted to moral coercion, insisting that he take her with him. Yan Si Fang did consider a way out, which was to spend the night in the busiest open area in Sifang City where people frequently passed through. Even after entering the city, Yan Si Fang remained vigilant, which puzzled Ye Wu Zhi. After all, in the eyes of a naive girl like her, the yamen in Mu Yun City should be enough to protect their safety. Yan Si Fang had to remind Ye Wu Zhi that even if they were in the yamen, the guards wouldn't be with them twenty-four hours a day. If the people who were chasing them found them, there was still a chance of being harmed. The best option was to ensure they never put themselves in danger.
Ye Wu Zhi is a member of the Jingtao Sect. This time, he entered the martial world to investigate the case of the Jingtao Sect being severely punished, resulting in the death of thirty percent of its members. San Qi Dao takes it upon themselves to punish those who have committed crimes. They believe that those who cannot be dealt with by the authorities or those who commit crimes thinking they can escape punishment should be held accountable. Therefore, they often wear masks and claim to mete out justice by punishing wrongdoers.
Yan Si Fang couldn't understand how a sect with over seventy people could lose thirty percent of its members to San Qi Dao. Meng San Xi explained the issue of power levels to Yan Si Fang. It turns out that San Qi Dao mobilizes up to eighty people each time, including many skilled individuals who overpower the sect members. Yan Si Fang planned to escape the pursuers by riding a fast horse early in the morning when the city gates open. However, Meng San Xi and Ye Wu Zhi decided
