To Get Master Episode 13 Recap & Spoilers: A New Master and a Fateful Mark
This Episode , the power dynamics in Fengyu Valley are completely upended. Baili's surprising promotion sets off a chain reaction, leading to secret plots, tense confrontations, and a shocking discovery that could change everything for Li Song'er.
A New Leader in the Valley
After handing over the coveted Xiao Yao Jue martial arts manual, Baili is officially named the new Young Valley Master by Nan Wentian, a move that catches everyone off guard. Wasting no time in his new role, Baili makes a stunning announcement: Fengyu Valley will no longer teach the Xiao Yao Jue to Chu Meng Die, citing her previous deception of using an imposter.
Feeling betrayed and utterly furious, Chu Meng Die accuses Baili of being just as corrupt as the others. With that, she storms out of Fengyu Valley, her departure signaling a major shift in alliances and setting the stage for future conflict.
A Secret Rendezvous and a Close Call
Later that night, Li Song'er sneaks away to an inn for a secret meeting with Gu Yuan, who thoughtfully brings her favorite pastries. Their reunion is cut short when the brutish Da Xiong tracks her down. He tosses Li Song'er's bundle at her and grows suspicious that someone else is in the room. Thinking fast, Li Song'er screams that she's being assaulted, a clever ruse that successfully scares the intruder away. Though they hate to part, Li Song'er and Gu Yuan say a hasty goodbye, their brief meeting highlighting the constant risk surrounding their relationship.
Gu Yuan's Jade Pendant Ploy
As Chu Meng Die makes her way out of the valley, Gu Yuan appears, seemingly to see her off. During their farewell, Chu Meng Die skillfully swipes a jade pendant from him. Gu Yuan pretends not to notice, as this is all part of his intricate plan to "lure the snake from its hole." He knows that with the jade pendant, Chu Meng Die can potentially merge the three-colored bracelets and gain access to the second volume of the Xiao Yao Jue. All Gu Yuan has to do now is watch her from the shadows, laying the groundwork for his own long-game to seize the powerful manual.
An Unlikely Protector
Not one to give up easily, Da Xiong, now acting on orders from the senior disciple Nan Feiyan, shows up at Li Song'er's humble cottage to cause more trouble. He uses the excuse of investigating Zhou Heng's murder to harass her. While Gu Yuan isn't there to protect her this time, Baili steps in, asserting his new authority as Young Valley Master.
Da Xiong scoffs at Baili's new title and mocks the small cottage, but Li Song'er retorts that his heart is even smaller. Baili firmly orders Da Xiong and his men to leave, warning them that they will be punished for violating the valley's rules if they refuse. Fearing the consequences, Da Xiong makes a flimsy excuse about needing to collect his laundry before it rains and beats a hasty retreat.
The Mark of a Hero
Grateful for his help, Li Song'er invites Baili to soak his feet as a gesture of thanks. As he removes a sock, she spots a distinctive mark on the bottom of his foot. Baili dismisses it as a simple birthmark, but Li Song'er is overjoyed. It's the exact mark that identifies the hero in her beloved storybook. This discovery confirms her long-held suspicion that Baili is someone truly special, a revelation that will undoubtedly complicate the quest for the Xiao Yao Jue and unravel the secrets connecting them all. The episode ends on this cliffhanger, suggesting that Li Song'er's newfound knowledge is about to cause a whole new wave of turmoil.
