Hong Hoa (Esther Kwan) sat down underneath an apple tree to rest. She ponder about what she had witness back at the restaurant.
The young girl shiver when she thought back to the dead corpses with blood dripping down their eyes, noses, and mouths.
As Hong Hoa close her eyes to take a nap, a sound startled her. Her eyes pop open with her ears perk up, alert of any strange sounds.
Cautiously, Hong Hoa approach the direction the sound have came from. She hid behind a bush and look out.
A young handsome man was fighting with two big and evil-looking man. A young injure girl lie to the left of Hong Hoa.
Hong Hoa slowly step out of the bush and crawl toward the young girl. The girl turn toward Hong Hoa with a surprise look.
Hong Hoa whisper to the girl, "Don't worry, I mean no harm."
The girl study Hong Hoa's expression and finally decide she could trust the older girl.
"C'mon, let's get out of here." Hong Hoa grab the girl's arm and drag her away.
However, the girl made no attempt to move, "I'm not leaving without Tuan Kiet (Louis Koo).", the girl said, determine.
Hong Hoa look at the three men and them somersault toward them.
She block one of the large man's swords and kick his leg. She then grab a handful of dirt and throw it at the two men's face.
Tuan Kiet and Hong Hoa help the girl up and they all run away.

"The full moon, has it really been this long? Trinh Trinh?" the shadow whisper to himself and sigh, "Ly Gia Minh (Ekin Cheng), why does you still love her after what she have done? Ly Gia Minh, what is wrong with you?"
"Love is blind." another shadow appear, standing tall on the roof.
"Duc Thang (Benny Chan), what are you doing here?" Gia Minh ask before turning his head back to look at the night sky.
"Ly dai ca (brother Ly), why can you still think about her after all these years?" Duc Thang ask
There was no reply from Gia Minh.
Duc Thang finally spoke after a moment of silence, "Guess who I saw today?" he ask, changing the subject.
"Who?" Gia Minh ask, pretending to be interested.
"Ngoc Bich."
"Oh? So how is she doing? Still stubborn as always?"
"Yep, and look like she got herself a boyfriend." Duc Thang said, amuse.
Gia Minh and Duc Thang laugh at the thought of their boyish little sworn sister falling in love.
"How did you saw her?" Gia Minh ask.
"She and her boyfriend were attack by the Black Python Sect. I saved them but then I left them at an abandoned temple." Duc Thang reply.
