Chapter Summaries

Di Juetian entered the Yin-Yang Secret Realm with Gong Xin and Zhao Wuji, suspecting that Zhao Wuji was a reborn Child of Fortune whose soul was fusing. After Di Juetian kicked Zhao Wuji into danger and saw his strength awaken, he questioned him about his origins while Zhao Wuji remained determined to claim a Yin-Yang Divine Fruit.

• Gong Jiulong explained that his drunken promise had arranged Gong Xin’s marriage to Zhao Wuji, and he announced that the Yin-Yang Divine Fruits were ready to harvest.
• Gong Xin, Zhao Wuji, and Di Juetian entered the Yin-Yang Secret Realm, where demonic beasts appeared around them.

• Gong Xin asked Zhao Wuji about his new strength, while Di Juetian told her that Zhao Wuji’s condition seemed unusual.
• Di Juetian asked Zhao Wuji where he came from, and Zhao Wuji claimed he had been an orphan trained by a master and vowed to obtain a Yin-Yang Divine Fruit.

Di Juetian saw through Zhao Wuji’s soul-fusion secret and pressured him for answers, but Zhao Wuji claimed he remembered only receiving an inheritance. Di Juetian then cleared the path through the secret realm with a lightning attack, leaving Zhao Wuji wary of his intentions.

• Di Juetian recognized that Zhao Wuji’s soul was fusing and threatened him by pointing out Zhao Wuji’s feelings for Gong Xin.
• Zhao Wuji said he had received an inheritance but could not recall where he came from because his soul had not fully fused.

• Di Juetian summoned a storm of lightning dragons that killed the demonic beasts blocking their way.
• Di Juetian led the group onward while Zhao Wuji watched him with suspicion and wondered what he was after.

Di Juetian ate the dull Yin-Yang fruit before Zhao Wuji could take it, while Zhao Wuji ate one of the other fruits and gained no benefit. Zhao Wuji accused Di Juetian of switching the fruits, then tried to use Gong Xin to protect himself from suspicion as they planned to ask Gong Jiulong what had happened.

• Di Juetian noticed that the Yin-Yang Divine Tree’s three fruits had been altered and that the dull fruit was the true Yin-Yang Divine Fruit.
• Zhao Wuji offered to take the dull fruit, claiming he wanted to minimize the risk to Gong Xin, but Di Juetian ate it first.
• Gong Xin gave Zhao Wuji one of the other fruits, which had no effect on him.
• Zhao Wuji accused Di Juetian of swapping the fruits, but Di Juetian left without answering.
• Gong Xin said they should ask Gong Jiulong, while Zhao Wuji apologized to her and urged her to explain that his suspicion had come from eagerness to protect her.

Di Juetian’s suspicion that Zhao Wuji had taken the Yin-Yang Divine Fruit surfaced when Gong Xin questioned him in front of the Gong Family. Zhao Wuji tried to explain himself, but Gong Xinyue’s fury filled the hall, leaving the family facing her accusation.

• Zhao Wuji told Gong Xin that Di Juetian had asked whether he was a soul-fused or body-possessing outsider, and Gong Xin comforted him.
• Di Juetian received a system notification that the Child of Fortune’s opportunity had been intercepted, lowering his Heavenly Mandate Value and raising Di Juetian’s Villain Value by 500.
• The Gong Family mocked Zhao Wuji for only reaching the first level of Body Tempering, while Gong Xin revealed another Yin-Yang Divine Fruit and denied having eaten it.
• Gong Xin asked Di Juetian whether he had taken more than one fruit, and Zhao Wuji stepped forward to explain that the fruit had barely helped his damaged soul.
• Gong Xinyue unleashed her killing intent and asked whether they suspected her son of swapping Zhao Wuji’s Yin-Yang Divine Fruit.

• The Gong Family’s old ancestor apologized to Gong Xinyue, ordered Gong Jiulong to cultivate in seclusion, and named Gong Yilong the new family head.
• Gong Yilong expelled Gong Xin and Zhao Wuji from the main household, and Gong Xin later asked Zhao Wuji whether the fruit had been faulty.

Di Juetian persuaded the Gong Family that Zhao Wuji’s change meant another soul had taken over his body, then lured Qian Tang to the family. Meanwhile, Zhao Wuji took Gong Xin away, promising to help her grow stronger, and Qian Tang arrived to find his strength sealed.

• Di Juetian told Gong Jiulong and the Gong Family that Zhao Wuji’s transformation suggested a soul had taken over his body, and Gong Jiulong agreed to contact an old friend.
• Di Juetian instructed Gong Jiulong to tell the old friend that something had happened to Zhao Wuji, and the old man left his secluded place for the Gong Family.
• A woman summoned three figures after the old man departed, while Zhao Wuji led Gong Xin away and promised her faster growth and a possible transformation of her physique.
• Qian Tang arrived at the Gong Family, and Di Juetian recognized his identity and abilities.
• Qian Tang discovered that the space around him was sealed and his Sage Realm strength had disappeared, leaving him to wonder what had happened.

Di Juetian used a Devil Seed to control Qian Tang and learned how Zhao Wuji had supposedly died and returned. At the Limitless Hall, he subdued Murong Hongyan and Li Shaoyun, controlled them, and told them Zhao Wuji was still alive, though Murong insisted she had watched him die.

• Di Juetian formed a Devil Seed to control Qian Tang, then learned Zhao Wuji had once been the Limitless Divine Temple’s hall master and had vanished after attempting a breakthrough.
• Qian Tang told Di Juetian that Zhao Wuji had reappeared after thirty thousand years and asked him to build a relationship with Gong Xin.
• Di Juetian went with the ancestor to the Limitless Hall and watched Murong Hongyan and Li Shaoyun behind a beaded curtain.

• Di Juetian told Murong Hongyan and Li Shaoyun that Zhao Wuji was still alive, and Murong replied that she had watched him die.

• Di Juetian warned Murong Hongyan and Li Shaoyun to follow his plan, and the pair agreed to continue their work together.
• Zhao Wuji led Gong Xin to a cliff, summoned Qian Tang, and brought them to a hidden cache of cultivation resources.

• Gong Xin’s disappointment in Zhao Wuji cost him more Heavenly Mandate Value, while Di Juetian gained Villain Value for stealing his opportunity.
• Zhao Wuji chose to seek strength in Wuji Province, and Di Juetian followed him after sending the order to begin the plan.

Murong Hongyan began preparing for the plan as Di Juetian followed Zhao Wuji and his companions into a hidden inheritance site. After Zhao Wuji sacrificed Qian Tang to the altar, the site stirred and an unknown presence spoke to him.

• Murong Hongyan told Li Shaoyun she would make preparations after receiving word that the plan had begun.
• Di Juetian followed Zhao Wuji, Gong Xin, and Qian Tang to a natural formation in the Hundred Thousand Mountains and watched them enter the inheritance site.

• Qian Tang retrieved what he thought was a jade slip, but it changed into a black skull and devoured him after Zhao Wuji struck at him.
• The altar trembled, the golden skeleton vanished, and black mist appeared as a voice addressed Zhao Wuji, who answered that he had come.

Zhao Wuji faced Di Juetian after seeking an inheritance, while Gong Xin tried to protect him from her powerful cousin. When Di Juetian forced Zhao Wuji to choose between the inheritance and Gong Xin, Zhao Wuji declared his love for her, then pierced her heart.

• Zhao Wuji approached the altar to receive the inheritance, but Di Juetian appeared and demanded that Zhao Wuji surrender the opportunity or Gong Xin would die.
