• The pointer stopped on Extraordinary Procreation, leaving Lin Qiye horrified.

He Lin discovered that the Spear of Judgment and Oath had returned as a silver-haired girl named Jinian arrived to confront Isis and the other gods.

• Amon sensed six radiant figures appearing within the broadest river of destiny.

Amon discovered six human souls within Great Xia’s National Destiny and learned they were Heroic Spirits who had sacrificed their bodies and realms to guard it.

• Jinian drove off with Ye Fan while Guan Zai and Lu Wuwei were left behind, then the car sprouted pixel wings and flew away.

As Lin Qiye and the others brought the shattered city toward home, they encountered a masked figure on a boat in the mist whose mask bore the character “King.”
