As Mu Yunyao and the others began cultivating, Chen Changan stayed alert and prepared to help Fan Tianhua and Ye Bufan achieve fleshly sanctification.

• Mu Yunyao kicked Da Huang and Fan Tianhua after they called her Mom, and Chen Changan told them to stop fooling around and focus on finding Crimson Blood Sacred Fruits.
• Ye Bufan explained that the fruits could sometimes be found near the Crimson Blood Sea’s outskirts, though entering the sea was dangerous even for High-level Saints.
• Da Huang spotted movement in the sea, and Mid-level Saint members of the Crimson Blood Tribe rose up, gave Chen Changan Crimson Blood Sacred Fruits, and killed themselves.
• Da Huang and Fan Tianhua competed to collect the crystals left behind, while Mu Yunyao asked whether Chen Changan’s future self had arranged the strange events.
