• Lu Jun considered how the Cosmic Law was weakening him and blocking his advancement, then vowed to smash it.

Lu Jun ignored Wu Sidu’s choice and flew her back toward Mingdu. Meanwhile, Speaker Xu Tiandi visited Di Tian and Di Yue, demanding Di Yue’s auspicious blessing from the Plane Origin and backing his threat with a hidden Imperial Guard Legion.

He went to confront the Federation, with Wu Sidu following despite his orders to stay behind, and began questioning Ha Luosa about the plane’s secrets.

• Lu Jun told Wu Sidu to stay behind before departing for the Federation, but she chased after him and insisted on facing the danger at his side.

• Ha Luosa told Lu Jun that Xu Tiandi had been chosen as the era’s Child of Destiny, but Yun Ming’s theft of Ya Li and Lu Jun’s return had derailed the Plane Master’s plans.
• Ha Luosa explained that the Plane Master’s sleeping commands still favored Xu Tiandi, even as Xu Tiandi’s actions threatened to stray from their original purpose.
• Ha Luosa said his contract prevented him from directly acting against Xu Tiandi, though he hoped to preserve Douluo Star’s strength for the coming war against the Abyss.
• Lu Jun accepted Ha Luosa’s explanation, ended the communication, and walked alone toward Xu Family Manor with the Ice Abyss Sword at his waist.

As Lu Jun drew a sword he had made himself, Xu Tiandi admitted that beating Lu Jun was essential to reclaiming what he had lost and securing his place in history.
