## Story

Xie Yuchen strikes a deal with Jason without Jason knowing it was Huo Xiuxiu and him who made Jason the scapegoat for the failed shipment route. Ning overhears their conversation and reports back to Hendry Cox who orders her to get rid of Jason once they reach the Heavenly Palace. He also tells her to not believe anyone who claims the palace is fake, while Ning is worried for his health, as it seems to be deteriorating.

Wu Xie and the others wait until their compass works again, showing the magnetic field of the tortoise is broken. Once Wang Pangzi gives the clear, they continue on their way. Wu Xie follows Chen Pi Ah Si and confronts him about his sudden ability to see and is assaulted by the man. At the same time, Wang Pangzi starts hallucinating while working on freeing an artifact from a wall. He sees Wu Xie telling him he is disappointed due to his betrayal by working with Hendry Cox and Wu Xie leaves when Wang Pangzi receives a call from Hendry Cox. He hangs up and catches Shun Zi loitering around. Worried he might have overheard something, Wang Pangzi hallucinates killing Shun Zi. At the same time, Hua Heshang and Lang Feng start hallucinating in the tortoise chamber and Lang Feng blows up the tortoise statue. Wu Xie wakes up to find Wu Sanxing in Chen Pi Ah Si's clothes and gets scared. He gets even more confused when another Wu Sanxing appears, claiming to be his uncle.

As it turns out, Wu Sanxing is actually present, trying to wake Wu Xie from his hallucination. He and his men manage to wake them from the hallucination but the tortoise starts releasing Worm Jade, attracting the centipedes which start falling from the ceiling and the group runs for it. Wu Xie, together with Chen Pi Ah Si, almost get lost in the maze of corridors but make it into a new chamber with Wu Sanxing and his men.

Wu Xie confronts his uncle about sending him to this exploration, then ghosting him again and Wu Sanxing tells him to just follow him from now on. They start arguing but suddenly centipedes start raining down on them. To escape, Wu Sanxing lights the torches as they attract the centipedes and while the insects are distracted, the groups makes a run for it.

In the corridor they run into Lang Feng and Wu Xie admits to his uncle that he always felt like Lang Feng is communicating with someone in secret, as he was always around his phone and taking pictures. Wu Sanxing asks why he did not reveal this earlier but Wu Xie tells him he does not have proof. Wu Sanxing orders Pan Zi to apprehend Lang Feng and they find a communication device with him. Chen Pi Ah Si starts interrogating him about his secret partner. Wu Sanxing orders Pan Zi to help interrogate Lang Feng but Pan Zi reasons it might not be a good idea for Wu Xie to see what is about to happen. Wu Sanxing takes Wu Xie away.

Xie Yuchen finally manages to make Brother Dao talk about the secret trafficking.

Wu Xie confronts his uncle again, asking him for the truth, but Wu Sanxing refuses. When Wu Sanxing finally gives in to his pleas, Wu Xie guesses he will only tell him fairytales instead of the truth and decides to leave the matter. Pan Zi and the others join them, Lang Feng unconscious, and they reveal he was working with Jason all this time, sending him information. Wu Xie spots the centipedes coming for them again and they run away. Exhausted they take a break and Wu Xie sees a giant centipede on the wall. Angry, Wu Sanxing starts firing his gun at the insect, to no avail. This forces them to run away again. Not having anywhere further to go, suddenly an explosion takes place. When Wu Xie gets up from the ground he finds a severed and burned leg in front of him, realizing Wu Sanxing and Pan Zi decided to blow up the centipedes and blew up Lang Feng with it.
