 They duel and Ping, without Kai, escapes to warn the Emperor who reveals he is in league with the Necromancer.She is stripped of her position as Imperial Dragonkeeper and taken off to be sacrificed.During the sacrifice, Dong Fang Suo, Jun, Hua and Kai come to her aid and they defeat the necromancer though Dong Fang Suo is sadly killed (who says it was the Emperor who ordered him and the necromancer to make the accident that almost killed Ping before he dies).
