• Purple Fate Great Snow and Xiao Lu prepared boiled eggs as a gift for the Yang Spirit Heavenly Venerates, and Qi Yuan transformed them into Ice Eggs and turned the steamer basket into a gift box.

Qi Yuan visited Yang Spirit Heavenly Venerates with Ice Sword’s egg and discovered that Wind Decay Celestial Venerable was the mole by asking him direct questions.
