YUE is encircled in Gaixia. Knowing that he has no way out, he orders his subordinates to send LADY YUE away. He himself stays behind to fight with BONG. LADY YUE does not want to leave YUE, for she knows that he will fight until the last minute. To save him from any worries, she kills herself by cutting her throat after biding farewell to him. YUE leads 28 men to break out of the encirclement and reach Wujiang. Looking at the water, YUE thinks of his only defeat in his whole life. Instead of crossing the river and making a comeback, he cuts his throat. LEUNG understands very well that his task has finished, so he leaves causally after saying goodbye to BONG. BONG ascends the throne as emperor, known as Han Gaozu in history.
