While Xuenu's dance continues, Gao Jianli battles the assassin outside, eventually killing him, and Yan Chunjun dies at the same moment. Before escaping, Gao Jianli proposes he and Xuenu spend the rest of their lives together, but she is non-committal. Back in the present, Xuenu reveals that she was not defeated by the Fire Charm technique, but realises that she was poisoned by Crimson Snake during their battle and collapses. Gao Jianli then challenges Hidden Bat for the final battle, but White Phoenix intervenes and challenges Gao Jianli instead. (thetvdb.com)
