Lu Feng faced Tuoba Yu in the opening battle and used the Heavenfall Sword Array to probe and overcome the defenses of his Nine Mountains Black Armor.

• Hu Xianxian told Lu Feng that the Blood Clan was advancing and that the Ice Spring Sect and Clear River Sect had begun fighting, so Lu Feng set out for the Snow Region with support from Feng Sen and others.

Lu Feng revealed the power of his Moon-Washed Empty Courtyard sword intent and defeated Frost Soul after the two clashed across Shadow Pavilion. The surviving attackers were trapped and killed, and Xi Buwei woke to find his sect in ruins as Qiong Hua pointed out Lu Feng as his son-in-law.

• Yin Su and Qiong Hua were stunned by Lu Feng's sword intent as he attacked Frost Soul with Moss-Marked Frost and Bamboo Shadow Cutting Light.

• Wu Yibo learned that the Young Sect Master had exposed Saint Sect’s agents and spread a story about Lu Feng’s companion, then ordered the news broadcast and announced he would go to Love Tomb.

Lu Feng and Qiong Hua followed a formation ambush to Mount Houhua, where Snow Spirit Valley had trapped and tortured Liu Chu’s Clear River Sect squad. They rescued the survivors, and Lu Feng killed Zhu Tan with his Moon-Washed Empty Courtyard sword intent, leaving the remaining Snow Spirit Valley fighters terrified.

• Mo Qianqiu confronted Lu Feng, but could not activate the Nine Heavens Profound Yin Grand Array.
• Lu Feng explained that he had covered the area with his own power, preventing Mo Qianqiu’s arrays from borrowing the power of heaven and earth.

Lu Feng defeated Mo Qianqiu, killed Si Mingli, and let the fleeing Wuyi Mingzhi escape toward the Clear River Sect so he could settle their grudges later. Meanwhile, the Ghost Gate and its allies fought the Saint Sect’s invasion around Qingqiu Mountain, where the arrival of Saint Sect elders left Hu Xianxian facing an open confrontation.

Yue Wuyai’s assault on Ghost Gate stalled until three Patrolling Envoys from the Dao Domain Boundary Land arrived to investigate rumors about Lu Feng’s Outer Domain blood. Lu Feng appeared through the Blood-colored War Corpse and struck at them, but the envoys withdrew after sensing his aura, leaving the Saint Sect camp baffled and the battle unresolved.

• A Patrolling Envoy discovered that Ji Hongluan belonged to the Ji Family, and the Wisteria Sword Immortal claimed Lu Feng was on the mountain, forcing Hu Xianxian to admit the Lord was nearby.
• Lu Feng appeared as the Blood-colored War Corpse and slashed at the three envoys, who sensed his aura and withdrew without investigating further.
• The neutral soul masters took the envoys’ departure as evidence that Lu Feng had no Outer Domain blood, while Yue Wuyai and the Saint Sect camp were left confused and frustrated.

Lu Feng sent the Blood-colored War Corpse from Qingqiu Mountain toward the Love Tomb after learning Jiang Ruoyun had been branded a Blood Clan traitor and was in danger.

• The Silver Moon Demon Bear heard Lu Feng approaching and began to cry with excitement, while Yu Yihan recognized his familiar, unhurried figure.

Lu Feng reunited with Yu Yihan and used the Four Seasons Cycle Array to kill the forces attacking the Clear River Sect’s back mountain. After learning that Jin Guan Peipei had targeted the Silver Moon Demon Bear for the Blood Clan’s beast-human experiments, he hurried to the front mountain, where Yu Yihan said her father and the others were in danger.

• Lu Feng discovered in the red robe guest's Storage Ring that the man was a Blood Clan informant and that Jin Guan Peipei had sent him to capture the Silver Moon Demon Bear for her experiments.
