• The hundred soldiers fired eight rounds each and shattered the Iron Thorn Wood targets, leaving Hu Liena stunned as Ye Tian reminded her to honor the bet.

• Ye Tian praised Bibi Dong’s beauty and abilities, revealed that she was the Rakshasa God’s heir, and joked that he might marry her and Qian Renxue together.

• Ye Tian brought Bibi Dong and Hu Liena to Butterfly Farm, where Chen Jian greeted him and was introduced as a Rank 87 Support System Soul Douluo.

Hu Liena learned that Ye Tian had helped Chen Jian turn his plant-growing martial soul into a powerful support ability, while Bibi Dong discovered that Butterfly Farm's farmers plowed unusually fast. Bibi Dong entered the field to ask whether stronger oxen were responsible.

• Hu Liena was shocked to learn that Chen Jian was an eighty-seventh-level Support System Soul Douluo whose martial soul accelerated plant growth, and Chen Jian credited Ye Tian for his progress.

• Ye Tian and Hu Liena followed Bibi Dong into the fields, where a farmer explained that the curved plowshare made plowing faster and deeper.
• Chen Jian explained that the Curved Shaft Plow saved effort through the principles Ye Tian called physics, and Ye Tian offered Bibi Dong his physics textbooks.
• Bibi Dong suggested keeping the plow secret, but Ye Tian argued that farmers should be able to use it and said only one-third of East Sea Coast farmers had adopted it so far.
• Bibi Dong proposed that the Two Great Empires or Spirit Hall could help spread the plow, while Ye Tian dismissed the idea that either power would notice it.
• Hu Liena asked about the round crops on a cart, and Chen Jian identified them as potatoes discovered by Ye Tian, with yields of up to five thousand jin per mu.

Ye Tian showed Bibi Dong and Hu Liena the farm’s high-yield potatoes and explained how fertilizer could improve crop harvests. Bibi Dong became interested in the farm’s agricultural methods as Chen Jian began explaining the nutrients plants needed.

• Bibi Dong and Hu Liena doubted Chen Jian’s claim that potatoes yielded five thousand jin per mu, so Ye Tian invited them to inspect the harvest.
• Ye Tian led the group to the potato fields, where Bibi Dong pulled up a plant bearing five or six jin of potatoes and accepted that the yield was real.
• Ye Tian and Chen Jian described ways to prepare potatoes, and Hu Liena eagerly looked forward to tasting them.
• Bibi Dong asked about the neighboring Sweet Potato plot, and Ye Tian said it needed another round of fertilizer before it could be harvested.
• Chen Jian explained that fertilizer had raised wheat yields in his test fields from five hundred to twelve hundred jin per mu and said plants needed Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Potassium.

The chapter ended with Hu Liena silently weighing whether she would inherit godhood to destroy Spirit Hall if that were the only way to protect the Two Great Empires.

• Chen Jian explained that fertilizer combined Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Potassium, and Bibi Dong eagerly asked whether it could be cheaply produced and widely promoted.
• Ye Tian said the farm’s fertilizer came from Sea Soul Mountain’s Volcanic Ash and was already promoted along the Red Sea Coast, but he dismissed spreading it across the continent because war was about to begin.
• Hu Liena questioned Ye Tian’s prediction of war, and he argued that the Darkness Law and the Gods could push both sides toward conflict despite their leaders’ reluctance.
• Bibi Dong said she would refuse godhood rather than start a large-scale war that harmed ordinary people.
• Ye Tian asked whether Hu Liena would inherit godhood to defeat Spirit Hall if doing so required destroying it and offering the continent’s faith to the Gods, and Hu Liena fell silent.

Ye Tian explained to Bibi Dong and Hu Liena that the Gods were driving the Two Great Empires and Spirit Hall toward war over faith, and that winning public support through a Cold War could undermine the conflict. Bibi Dong asked how to put his ideas into practice, but Ye Tian deferred the problem to Spirit Hall and invited Hu Liena to go somewhere enjoyable.

• Hu Liena realized both sides would try to inherit godhoods and that their fear of the other side becoming gods made war inevitable.
• Bibi Dong despaired over the Gods’ scheme, but Ye Tian told her that staying on the East Sea Coast would keep them out of the war.

• Ye Tian told Bibi Dong that Spirit Hall could handle the war and took Hu Liena away to have fun.

• Hu Liena escaped Bibi Dong’s intimidating glance by linking arms with Ye Tian, who took Bibi Dong along to the farm’s Butterfly Valley.

• Chen Jian confirmed how glass was made and invited Bibi Dong and Hu Liena inside to see the greenhouse’s unusual fruits and vegetables.

Ye Tian showed Bibi Dong and Hu Liena his greenhouse, where Hu Liena eagerly sampled unfamiliar fruits and vegetables while Bibi Dong asked about its lighting. After eating a Ghost Pepper, Hu Liena kissed Ye Tian to repay an earlier debt, leaving him stunned by the pepper’s unbearable heat.

• Hu Liena and Bibi Dong entered Ye Tian’s greenhouse and admired its lush plants and unusual fruits.
• Chen Jian explained that Ye Tian had brought the plants from distant islands, while Ye Tian hid that the system had given him their seeds.

• Ye Tian and Hu Liena suffered the intense heat of Ghost Pepper, and Ye Tian arranged iced milk for Hu Liena before teasing her.
• Thirteen privately informed Ye Tian that two Soul Emperors were tailing them, and Ye Tian showed Bibi Dong and Hu Liena a coded maple leaf.
• Bibi Dong recognized the cipher as belonging to the Pope's Hall Knight Order, and Hu Liena sent a coded message asking the hidden sentries to keep their distance.
• Ye Tian, Bibi Dong, and Hu Liena reached the Farm Courtyard, where A Xin and his wife brought in the dying Xiao Xin and begged for help.
• A Xin explained that Xiao Xin had found a thousand-year Purple Blood Bamboo Shoot in the Purple Bamboo Forest, refused a young master's demand that she become his concubine, and was attacked by him.

Ye Tian treated Xiao Xin after she was gravely injured by powerful clan members, using divine needles to drain blood from her brain. He left her alive but still needed to bridge two vital vessels and find a way to anesthetize her before she woke.

• A Xin and his wife begged Chen Jian to save Xiao Xin, and Chen Jian had her carried into the Farm Courtyard despite believing she could not be saved.
• Ye Tian arrived, learned Xiao Xin was injured, and examined her while A Xin hesitated to identify the attackers.
• Ye Tian discovered ruptured brain capillaries, severed chest arteries, severe blood loss, and displaced organs, but insisted she still had a chance.
• Ye Tian used six Taiyi Divine Needles to drain pooled blood from Xiao Xin's brain, prompting her chest to rise and fall as her parents thanked him.
• Ye Tian determined he had to bridge two crucial brain vessels without letting Xiao Xin wake, but the anesthetics at his villa might take too long to retrieve.

Ye Tian saved Xiao Xin by repairing the meridians in her brain, stitching her chest wounds, and arranging a blood transfusion from matching donors. As Xiao Xin began recovering at the farm, a group led by Young Master Zhou forced their way toward Ye Tian’s residence.

• Hu Liena used her Charm skill to anesthetize Xiao Xin while Ye Tian sutured her damaged cerebral meridians with the Taiyi Divine Needle.
• Ye Tian explained that Xiao Xin needed a blood transfusion, tested the farm workers for matching blood types, and arranged rewards for those who donated.
• Ye Tian stitched Xiao Xin’s chest wounds and began transfusing blood while telling her parents she needed to recover at the farm.
• A Xin and his wife thanked Ye Tian, who reflected on the hardship of commoners across the Douluo Continent.
• A group arrived at the Farm Courtyard, and a sinister voice claimed that Young Master Zhou, grandson of the East Sea City Spirit Hall Branch master, outranked Ye Tian.
