• Chen Changan gave the Yun Family man his name, joking that his father had named him Dad so he could gain an advantage when people addressed him.

• Da Huang reported what he had learned about Chaos Heaven, and Chen Changan criticized him for spending five years gathering so little information.
• A Yun Family member summoned Chen Changan and Mu Yunyao for a mission and told Da Huang to stay behind and watch the house.
• The Yun Family party explained that they planned to hunt two low-level Chaos Beasts and promised the guards promotion if they helped.
• After nearly a month of travel, the group reached a dense forest, where the Yun Family ordered the guards to find the beasts and lure them out.
• Chen Changan asked how strong the beasts were and how the guards should lure them, then defended himself when a Yun Family member accused him of mockery over the name Chen Die.
• Chen Changan said the guards were not slaves and deserved clear instructions, leaving the guards and Yun Family members stunned.

Chen Changan and Mu Yunyao split from the Yun Family guards to lure out a Chaos Beast and investigate the mission. They found one in its territory, where it warned them with its aura but stayed lazily at rest.

• Chen Changan challenged the Yun Family members to explain the mission, and they revealed that two Lesser Chaos Beasts guarded the area and were roughly as strong as Lesser Thousand Realm Lesser Rulers.
• Chen Changan proposed that he and Mu Yunyao lure out one beast while the other six guards dealt with the second, and the Yun Family agreed.
• Chen Changan and Mu Yunyao headed southeast, while the Yun Family members prepared and wondered whether the pair could handle a Chaos Beast.

• Chen Changan and Mu Yunyao entered a Chaos Beast's territory, saw its star-speckled form, and found that it only released a warning aura instead of attacking.

Chen Changan confronted a Chaos Beast and learned that the Yun Family wanted it captured, not killed, because Chaos Beasts produce the Chaos Stones humans use to cultivate. After overpowering it and proposing cooperation, he discovered Chaos Stones were condensed Chaos Power expelled from the beasts, and the beast explained that production could take decades or centuries.

• The Chaos Beast dismissed Chen Changan as too weak to hurt it, but Chen Changan beat it with his fists until it agreed to talk.
• Mu Yunyao joined them, and Chen Changan explained that the Chaos Beasts had little to fear because humans only wanted to capture or imprison them.
• Chen Changan proposed working together and asked how Chaos Beasts produced Chaos Stones.
• The Chaos Beast explained that it expelled excess Chaos Power as Chaos Stones, which could take decades or centuries to produce.

Chen Changan arranged for a Chaos Beast to let the Yun Family capture it, then used the disappearance of six Yun Family members to make himself and Mu Yunyao look more capable. He and Mu Yunyao went to lure the second Chaos Beast, while Chen Changan revealed that he had warned it to kill anyone who came near.

• Chen Changan persuaded the Chaos Beast to pretend to chase him and Mu Yunyao, promising to rescue it later from the Yun Family.
• The Yun Family members trapped the Chaos Beast in a formation and stored it in a portable space, then sent six others after a second beast.
• When the six failed to return, the Yun Family members sent Chen Changan and Mu Yunyao to find the second Chaos Beast.
• Mu Yunyao asked Chen Changan about the missing six, and he said he had secretly told the first Chaos Beast to warn the other one to kill them.

Chen Changan and Mu Yunyao captured one Chaos Beast while secretly hiding another from the Yun Family. Their success earned them promotion to Second-Class Guards, though they remained unable to get close to the Yun Family.

• Mu Yunyao told Chen Changan that she wanted to protect him and offered to bear any burden he did not want to carry.
• Chen Changan questioned a Chaos Beast about the Yun Family’s holding space and hid it inside a Small World in his body, promising to help the other captive Chaos Beast escape later.

• Chen Changan and Mu Yunyao became Second-Class Guards and moved into a larger courtyard, though they still could not get close to the Yun Family.

Chen Changan learned how guards could become First-class Guards and questioned a Chaos Beast about its kind before spending ten years cultivating. A new mission then arrived, and the Yun Family specifically requested Chen Changan and Mu Yunyao.

• Da Huang explained that guards could become First-class Guards by completing five missions, advancing to the Lesser Thousand Realm, or defeating a First-class Guard, though challenging one was difficult.
• Chen Changan learned from the Chaos Beast that the Yun Family kept dozens of low-level Chaos Beasts in a protected enclosure, and that Chaos Beasts grew stronger by purifying Chaos Power while producing Chaos Stones.
• Chen Changan spent ten years cultivating and creating Small Worlds, reaching a little over two thousand.
• A Yun Family member summoned Chen Changan and Mu Yunyao for a new mission, saying someone had specifically requested them and urging them to work toward First-class status.

Chen Changan and Mu Yunyao joined a Yun Family mission to defend a Law Source from a group of raiders. After the attackers were defeated, the Yun Family praised the pair for their performance and found evidence that could identify the dead enemies.

• A Yun Family leader told the guards their mission was to kill intruders who had been causing trouble on Yun Family territory, promising First-class Guard promotion to those who performed well.
• A group of raiders attacked a canyon to seize the Yun Family's Law Source, and the guards arrived as the Yun Family defenders were nearly overwhelmed.

• The surviving raiders were suppressed, but one attacker self-destructed when the Yun Family tried to question him.
• A Yun Family member praised Chen Changan and Mu Yunyao for outperforming the other guards, and the search party found evidence that could identify the attackers.
