To bring Pyeonggang back, he gathered all his guards and went to where On Dal was.

On the same day, On Dal's tribe received a message from the King of Silla, Jinheung (Kim Seung Su), threatening them to kill if they didn't surrender themselves and their weapons to them.

On Dal prohibited Pyeonggang from joining their upcoming battle against the Silla Tribe. He wanted her to go back to the palace safely. But when the Princess was already on her way home, she went against On Dal's wishes.
