• Lin Hai invited Meng Yiran to test her evolved Poison Dragon Thorn against an opponent, and she eagerly agreed after learning it would not be Xiao Wu or Zhu Zhuqing.

Lin Hai introduced Meng Yiran as Huo Wu’s new sparring partner, while Xiao Wu pulled him away for a private massage and confronted him about being more intimate with other girls.

• Poseidon arrived late and told the Five Great God Kings that his Inheritance Token and the Divine Will inside it had disappeared from the Heaven Dou Empire palace.

• Poseidon agreed to send down his Divine Will, visit Sea God Island, and make arrangements for the investigation.

Asura God asked Poseidon to prioritize Tang San as an inheritor and secretly kill whoever had mastered the Slaughter Law.

• Bo Saixi accepted the orders and, delighted by the chance to visit Heaven Dou City and seek news of the man she remembered, summoned the Seven Sacred Pillar Douluo to the Sea God Palace.

• Bo Saixi told the Seven Sacred Pillar Douluo that Sea God had ordered her to go to the continent and appointed Sea Dragon Douluo to command the island in her absence.

• The City Guard Captain began reporting the incident to Xing Aotian.

Lin Hai realized he was likely the second target, while the Sea God concealed his identity and Bo Saixi withheld the order to kill him.

• Lin Hai realized Bo Saixi was likely searching for him, while she concealed that she had been ordered to kill the target.

Lin Hai saw through Bo Saixi’s hidden conflict and persuaded her to stay with him while he searched for Tang Chen. As they walked back to Shrek, the two grew more comfortable chatting, while the Sea God and the Bodhi Ancient Tree joked that Lin Hai had set his sights on Bo Saixi.

• Lin Hai suspected that Bo Saixi had received secret orders from the Divine Realm and considered whether her target might be Tang Hao.

• As Lin Hai and Bo Saixi chatted on the way back to Shrek, the Sea God and the Bodhi Ancient Tree teased each other about Lin Hai pursuing her.

Lin Hai settled Bo Saixi into an Ice House and showed her unexpected care, stirring her long-suppressed loneliness. The Sea God explained that a guide's sacrifice was unnecessary for talented inheritors and proposed that Lin Hai improve Bo Saixi's talent so she could inherit his godhood herself.

• The Sea God reflected that life outside the Divine Realm felt more fulfilling than his dull existence there.
• Lin Hai built an Ice House, took Bo Saixi inside, and furnished it while telling her to rest; his attentiveness left her wondering what he wanted and feeling unsettled.
• The Sea God teased Lin Hai about pursuing Bo Saixi, then explained that a guide sacrificed herself only to awaken the divine power of an inheritor lacking talent.

• The Sea God suggested that Lin Hai use two medicinal herbs in his space to improve Bo Saixi's talent, and Lin Hai questioned whether it could be done so easily.

• Lin Hai arrived in Star Luo City intending to bring Zhu Zhuyun's parents, her younger sister Zhu Zhuyu, and Empress Zhu Lingyun to Spirit City.
