Episode 10 recap: 上官正道 is being controlled by the plot.
The person in the mirror tells Wenren Zhiguang to stop struggling. This is the setup, and Wenren Zhiguang can't resist it. Shangguan Zhengdao and Su Ruoruo are practicing swordplay outside Wenren Zhiguang's courtyard. Although Shangguan Zhengdao is talking to Su Ruoruo, his eyes are constantly looking in this direction. Su Ruoruo asks Shangguan Zhengdao who he is waiting for, but he quickly denies waiting for anyone.
Shangguan Zhengdao comes over to see Wenren Zhiguang. When Wenren Zhiguang hears Shangguan Zhengdao complimenting Su Ruoruo, he becomes very unhappy. Wenren Zhiguang asks Shangguan Zhengdao what he would do if one day he had to be enemies with Su Ruoruo. Suddenly, Shangguan Zhengdao picks up his sword and stabs towards Wenren Zhiguang, but manages to control himself just in time. Shangguan Zhengdao feels a lot of self-blame and doesn't understand what came over him, as he actually tried to attack Wenren Zhiguang.
Wenren Zhiguang explains that it's all part of the setup, and Shangguan Zhengdao cannot resist it. The fact that he was able to regain control means that he still values himself more in his heart. The leader of the martial arts alliance comes to find Su Ruoruo and mentions that his 18th birthday is coming soon, and he has prepared a gift for himself. Wenren Zhiguang also comes over and desperately holds onto the leader, asserting that she is his daughter. However, the leader's gaze remains fixed on Su Ruoruo.
Wenren Zhiguang realizes that she can't just sit and wait for her fate, and she must do something.
