After the group finished eating, Oscar revealed that he wanted their help finding Ice Jade Scorpions or Titan Snow Demons, whose territory lay deep in the Extreme North.

• The six soul masters secretly discussed taking Oscar's soul bone, and Lie Shuo and Han Han planned to use Blue Scorpion venom to weaken their targets.
