Summary[]

Feng Xin tries to refuse the gold belt because of their lack of money, but Xie Lian insists and says he’ll find other ways to obtain money and medication. In the end, he gives up resisting and keeps the belt, but Feng Xin promises to give it back whenever Xie Lian asks for it.

After selling Hong Jing, the group could afford a few good meals. Xie Lian convinces his mother to look after his father and stay far from the kitchen. Instead, he takes over the cooking. To hide his guilt, Xie Lian tries his best to take care of his ill father by giving him numerous blankets and heaters.

Hong Jing’s pawned money only lasts for a few months, so Feng Xin and Xie Lian decide to busk behind the King of Xianle’s back to afford his medication. Xie Lian hides his face with a white silk so as not to expose his identity as the former crown prince of Xianle.

Feng Xin shows himself on stage, names himself Godly Archer and explains he can shoot a bullseye from a hundred feet away. After doing the trick, pedestrians toss a few coins on the ground. Feng Xin and Xie Lian pick them up with the feeling that they have lost their dignity.

Suddenly, someone complains come from afar, asking who is shooting arrows in the streets. It turns out they are women with heavy makeup. They surround Feng Xin and scold him for damaging their property.

Feng Xin feels uncomfortable around them, so Xie Lian intervenes and apologizes to them. His silk gets yanked off during the process, revealing his face. The women change plans and grab him. They say they’ll take Xie Lian as payment because of his attractive face. Xie Lian realizes that they’re mistresses from a brothel, so he breaks free from their hold and runs away with Feng Xin.

Afterwards, they continue to busk since it's a good way to earn money. Feng Xin looks like an honest and good man, so he easily gains coins from people. Consequently, beefy men, known as street performers, confront Feng Xin and Xie Lian for stealing their business. To win the area, they propose a competition of shattering boulders on the chest where the winner gets to stay.

Xie Lian does it first, and he adds 3 stales on to his chest. Feng Xin smashes them down with a hammer, and much to their shock, the stones break with ease.

The leader of the street performers gets angry, so he says to add three more to his. Even though his friends are against the idea because it’s dangerous, he does it anyway. When the little guy hits him with a hammer, the leader spits blood. Xie Lian voluntarily gives up as he doesn't want things to get out of control.

The king’s symptoms are getting worse, but they couldn’t leave the city due to tight security. Xie Lian has no valuables left to pawn off to obtain money.

He notices Feng Xin’s odd behavior in those days. He would be grinning or look troubled, sometimes even hum off-key. He asks about this, but Feng Xin brushes it off. In the end, Xie Lian doesn’t have the energy to care about the matter.

The medicine was almost used up, but they couldn’t busk right now. Xie Lian tries to find a new way to obtain money, but he doesn’t take Feng Xin along.
