“Use It Against Them” is given by the Jade Dancer at the top of the Crimson Forest Sha-Chi Tower, in the frozen forest. She only appears if you saw Mu Xiaokui’s secret phase (“Young Mistress”). It is a rematch against Mu Xiaokui’s bodyguards in which you can only bring the Fiend Saws and the Iron Gauntlets. The reward is the Heel Reinforcement Part.
Where does Use It Against Them start?
At the top of the Crimson Forest Sha-Chi Tower, which is the end of the frozen forest route. That frozen version of the Crimson Forest opens during The Way Forward, after the stairs past the Green Serpent House. The Jade Dancer and the Iron Fiend are waiting at the top: talk to the Dancer to accept the tale.
Requirement: having fought the Jade Dancer and the Iron Fiend in Mu Xiaokui‘s secret phase, in the Village of Lu. That phase only appears if you completed Young Mistress (the five ribbons). It is the same phase that gives the Fiend Saws.
