Xie Lian and his nameless ghost general Wu Ming infiltrate the yong’an palace to kill the king. But the king, Lang Ying, is already on the verge of death and ends up dying happily in Xie Lian’s arms before he can enact his revenge. Angry, Xie Lian goes to another city to release his curse, but then decides to test the Yong’an citizens for three days. He lays in the center of the road with a sword in his chest, seeing if anyone will help him, but no one comes. Finally on the third day, a young man trips over him and curses at him, but then later returns to help him up and gives him a bamboo hat to shield him from the rain. This one act of kindness gives Xie Lian hope, and the energy to fight back against White No Face
