The next day, after seeing reports that Great Xia was organizing an international campaign against Twilight End Society, he concluded the Ten Thousand Tribulations Dao-Smelting Scripture was more valuable than expected and told his classmates that Twilight End Society had destroyed Crystal Cave Heaven.

• Jiang Chuan refused to revise his extravagant reward list, and Li Wenbin said he would ask the higher-ups for the treasures while informing him that he had been approved for the moon expedition.

After defeating the Twilight End Society squad, Jiang Chuan discussed the hidden seal techniques of the Great Scarlet Ancient Immortal and listened as Song Bin analyzed why the Society had attacked. Song Bin warned that Jiang Chuan could face further assassinations, while Jiang Chuan resolved to find and destroy the Twilight End Society’s Great Xia Branch; then Song Bin and Meng Yifei offered him a gift.
