After Hwon (Kim Soo Hyun) saves Yeon Woo (Han Ga In) in danger, he looks for Yang Myung (Jung Il Woo), who ran away, and requested a sword fight, accusing him of overthrowing the king.

Yang Myung tried to rescue Yeon Woo from assassins, but ended up leaving her to hide and escapes to his mother's temple. Hwon, who witnessed Yang Myung and Yeon Woo together, brings Yeon Woo with him to find Yang Myung.

Hwon, after thinking where he could be, eventually finds him and gives him a sword saying, "Running away with the king's lover is the same as trying to overthrow the king. If I die, you can become the king, so today, I'm giving you the opportunity to kill me."

Yang Myung won the fight, pointing his sword to the king's neck, but gave up killing him. Hwon replied, "Don't regret throwing your opportunity away."
