At the Black Emperor Sect auction, Yun Yun bid on the defective God Beating Whip after seeing it reflect a powerful strike. Just as the auctioneer prepared to award it to her for ten million gold coins, a young master raised the bid to eleven million and hinted he wanted it as a gift for her.

• Mo Tianxing appeared and opened the auction while Yun Yun and Lion King discussed his strength and planned to speak with Jia Nan Academy’s elders about Nalan Chaoge.

At the Black Emperor City auction, Yun Yun learned from the Golden Elder that Nalan Chaoge had ordered him to bid on a mummified Magical Beast corpse. The Golden Elder recounted Nalan Chaoge’s battle and apparent death, leaving Yun Yun with news of Xiao Ge but no certainty about where he was.

• Yun Yun and the Lion King discussed confronting Mo Tianxing and considered contacting Su Qian to work with the people from Jia Nan Academy.

Mo Tianxing chose the Demon Flame Valley to receive the Bodhi Body Transformation Saliva, setting the Black-Corner Region’s powers against Earth Demon Old Ghost. Yun Yun collected the mummified corpse, but Mo Tianxing recognized her as Sect Master Yun and planned to exploit the coming conflict to capture her.
