After the event at the library Dayu and Qing keep finding ways to meet each other secretly.

Qing is terrified thinking about the day getting closer for Dayu to join the empire army, he doesn't know when old feng would told him that his lesson is finish and he won't has a reason to stay here. What should he does?

how could he let someone he loves to go through all of this, if he reveal the secret, everyone in this house will face the consequences of this lie. In short, dayu will never has her life back, at least not in easy way.

Qing life also reach it's turning point, he didn't know how the old secret finally find it's way to the Empress, the Queen's men are searching for his whereabout and his mother's underlings told him that he need to move far away from this place, but he couldn't leave dayu alone, dayu eventually will need to reveal who she is to the world too.

Their times to hide have come to an end.

Qing voice out his concern to dayu and ask her to come with with him, screw the rule, screw their blood, screw the destiny that make them this way without their concern, they can break free to be nobody and start a new life together.

Dayu agreed and both flee away without everyone knows, that was the plan otherwise the empress would find him, Old Feng has been a great teacher to Qing but the man always strictly follow the rules, he doesn't know if he told the old man about their secret whether he will help them or he even would hand them over to the emperor for breaking the rule or he would be fine if Qing told him that he loves his child without knowing his child real gender identity or he might execute them by himself for engaging in forbidden relationship.

the only way is to vanish from the face of the earth for now.

On the run he never feel more alive, this life is not so bad at all, having no name, no tittle is actually feel lighter, he has dayu in his hands when he lays at night on the bed. Sometimes they didn't even have bed only the wet soil that soaked through the fabric dayu spread for them to rest.

But they are happy, everyday is a new day to explore together, they thought they could walk to the end of the earth together, yaht they could build an empire together.

One day they passed an ancient temple. Dayu asked Qing to pray in that sacred place for their safety, for their health, for their long lasting love and to always be together what ever life they would reincarnated in the future, no matter how many life time. Qing just smile at the hopeful and very exaggerated wish of his dayu and secretly wish it would be true somehow.

When they reach one of the village. Dayu didn't have any appetite to eat, she always throw up what ever food Qing bought for her, seeing his love laying ill, Qing seeks for a physician or any healer in that area only to be told that dayu is pregnant.

Qing couldn't describe how happy he is but also sad at the same time, he will become a father soon but they have such a weird life. Without a home, without a name. What should he do for these beautiful souls in his care?

Eventhough dayu is pregnant but they have to keep moving. He didn't feel safe to stay for too long at the same place, when dayu is strong enough to travel again, they pack their bag and move again.

They keep practicing their sword skill together even though now Qing will be worry sick when dayu got tired, they keep moving south, they want to be gone from this empire and enter another kingdom, who knows someday they might able to escape for real from the blood that run in their veins.
