Yang Fu learned that the Dragon God Immortal Palace was a trial for the Dragon God's Gift and continued gathering gemstones for his father. Meanwhile, the Jin Family attacked the Yang Family compound while Yang Fu was away, and Yang Genshuo called him back in alarm.

• Yang Fu learned from White Dragon Ling that the Immortal Palace would close when someone won its trial and obtained the Dragon God's Gift.

• Yang Genshuo saw the attack and urgently told Yang Fu to return to the Lineage.

The Jin Family attacked the Yang Family while Yang Fu and most of their allies were inside the Dragon God Immortal Palace, and Grayplane Daoist began breaking the family’s formations. As the Yang Family prepared to fight with only three days to hold out, Yang Fu raced home and gave up his immortal-palace opportunity to help Li Yao.

Grayplane Daoist continued attacking despite learning Yang Qiang was genuine, and the chapter ended with Yang Qiang revealing a stack of spare talismans as the battle remained unresolved.

• Yang Fu confirmed the order, and Yang Genshuo saw that the four Ghostshadow Tower assassins were powerful enough to overcome Feng Zhong’s formation.

Yang Fu lured Feng Zhong into the desert and used Ghostshadow Tower assassins to defeat and capture him, hoping to learn why the Feng Clan was building a Demon Realm teleportation array.
