Kiana helped Little Kiana and Sirin understand that Durandal was the real Kiana, while Little Kiana chose not to reveal that she had figured it out. At Anti-Entropy’s executive meeting, Cocolia confronted Einstein and Tesla over their attack on Destiny Headquarters, then realized the other executives might turn against her if they learned their leader was a Herrscher.

• Kiana asked March 7th the time and rushed to show Welt something.

Kiana accompanied Jing Yuan to the Xianzhou Luofu’s Martial Arts Ceremony, where she met Generals Feixiao and Huai Yan. When a Cloud Knight reported an emergency directly to Kiana, Jing Yuan tried to dodge responsibility and she blasted him away, drawing Feixiao’s interest.

• Feixiao became eager to spar with Kiana, while Huai Yan considered the power behind her sudden attack.

• Kiana recognized the shop as the one selling Sticky Rice Lemon Tea, and Bailu ordered their usual pastries for all three.
• The meal and Immortal's Happy Tea arrived, and Kiana examined a white, doughnut-shaped pastry.

Kiana enjoyed Bailu’s strangely named pastry before joining Jing Yuan and Yunli, where a Buli Ren attack broke out. After Kiana immobilized the attackers, she followed Yunli, who had taken Yanqing’s sword, and asked why she had done it; Yunli hesitated over whether to reveal her past.

• Kiana took Yunli to the Divination Department, where Yunli explained that she had kept Yanqing’s sword because of Zhuming’s battlefield customs, and Kiana persuaded her to return it.

• Kiana decided to go to the Craftsmanship Department herself to handle the dispute.

• Yanqing, Dan Heng, Stelle, and March 7th arrived, and Kiana took March 7th’s hand as Yunli tightened her grip on her greatsword and Ling Sha stopped her.

After Kiana ordered the company guests escorted away, she investigated the dangerous cargo and decided to send it to the Abyss Prison or dismantle it. She reunited with Tingyun and brought Ling Sha around the Luofu, where she caught Qingque gambling while supposedly on duty.

• Kiana ordered Scott and the other company guests escorted to the Temporal Patrol Division, and the onlookers learned that Kiana’s powerful connections had made Scott cautious.

• Kiana showed Ling Sha around the Luofu and took her to the Divination Department, where Qingque was gambling with colleagues instead of working.
• Kiana placed her hands on Qingque’s shoulders as Qingque complained that her fellow players were leaving after losing one round.

Kiana brought Ling Sha to the Luofu’s Alchemy Commission, where Ling Sha saw its disorder and asked how to address its deep-rooted problems. Kiana suggested a bizarre solution involving the Abundance, then joked about the Reignbow and seven wheelchairs as Stelle and Dan Heng arrived.

• Kiana revealed that she was the Luofu’s Acting General and tried to recruit Qing Que to guide them through the Divination Department.

• Kiana joked that the Reignbow’s light arrows had shown off seven wheelchairs, and Stelle asked what she meant when she and Dan Heng arrived.

Ling Sha took over the Alchemy Commission and discovered that Abundance pests left behind by her predecessors had spread through its caverns. She recruited Yanqing, Yunli, Kiana, and others to help exterminate them through a swordsmanship contest, which was about to begin.

• Dan Heng, Ling Sha, Yanqing, Kiana, and Stelle joked about the Reignbow’s supposed wheelchairs, while Ling Sha completed the Alchemy Commission handover and found it overrun with Abundance pests.
• Yunli and Yanqing argued over whether a warrior could claim an opponent’s weapon after it was dropped, and Kiana said Yunli was stronger because she was barefoot.
• Ling Sha interrupted the pair and proposed that they prove their superiority by exterminating the pests instead of fighting each other.
• Kiana objected to Ling Sha putting the children to work, so Ling Sha offered a sleep-soothing incense sachet as the contest prize; Kiana then asked to join, and March 7th pinched her in jealousy.
• At the pest-infested cavern, Ling Sha proposed a one-moment contest to see who could exterminate the most pests, though she questioned whether everyone’s weapons suited a swordsmanship challenge.

Kiana won the pest-clearing contest, then sparred with Fei Xiao and healed her Moon-mad condition and old injuries. Grateful and desperate to keep the healing close, Fei Xiao knelt and asked Kiana to come with her to Yaoguang, prompting March 7th to intervene.
