• Qiu Ling and Old Monster Qing Hua returned and were shocked to find Lin Feng had controlled the Three Thousand Burning Flame, while Dan Chen, Cao Ying, and Xiao Yi Xian were relieved he was unharmed.
• Lin Feng flew back to the group and clarified to Cao Ying that he had controlled the flame rather than fully subduing it.
• Lin Feng explained that the golden light came from a Dragon Seal made using blood from Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan Half-Saints.

After Lin Feng explained that Three Thousand Burning Flame belonged to the Ancient Void Dragon Clan, the survivors prepared to leave the Star Realm as it began to collapse. Lin Feng and Xiao Yi Xian departed, while Dan Chen’s family and the Cao family left with marriage and alchemy ties to Lin Feng still pending.

• Lin Feng explained that the Dragon Seal let him control Three Thousand Burning Flame because the Heavenly Flame belonged to the Ancient Void Dragon Clan, and Old Monster Qing Hua left, disappointed.

• Lin Feng and Xiao Yi Xian headed for the Star Realm’s exit.

After subduing the Three Thousand Burning Flame, Lin Feng returned to Ye Courtyard and discussed where to absorb it. He decided that monitoring Xiao Yan’s movements came first, especially whether Xiao Yan would go to Soul Hall to rescue his teacher.

• Lin Feng confirmed that he had subdued the Three Thousand Burning Flame and returned to Ye Courtyard with the others.
• Zi Yan’s teasing and clinginess spoiled Lin Feng’s plans to spend time alone with his wives, so the group discussed their next move instead.
• Feng Qing'er suggested absorbing the flame in the Beast Region, and she and Zi Yan argued until Lin Feng stopped them.
• Lin Feng said he would not absorb the flame in Sacred Pill City because he wanted to conceal his ability to absorb multiple Heavenly Flames.
• Lin Feng said they needed to monitor Xiao Yan to see whether he would go to Soul Hall to rescue his teacher.

Lin Feng and his companions learned that Zi Yan’s clan had amassed enormous stores of treasures to strengthen Soul Power, while Zi Yan remained unaware of their value. The group’s conversation then shifted to Zi Yan’s age and magical-beast reproduction before Lin Feng brought everyone back to the important matter.

• Lin Feng explained that he and his companions wanted Soul Bodies and Soul Origins from the Soul Hall to strengthen their Soul Power, and Zi Yan said her clan had stored several warehouses of similar treasures.

• Lin Feng stopped their argument and warned Zi Yan not to derail their discussions, so she agreed to behave.

• Lin Feng rejected Feng Qing’er’s suggestions to use Revered Thunder or a subordinate clan, since either choice could expose their plans to Soul Hall or other outsiders.
• Feng Qing’er offered to monitor Xiao Yan herself, but Lin Feng had no solution and Zi Yan boasted that she could help.
• Lin Feng spanked Zi Yan for jumping onto the table and assigned Xinlan to teach her etiquette.
• Zi Yan explained that an Ancient Void Dragon could use Space Power to follow Xiao Yan undetected in exchange for pills.
• Lin Feng realized Zi Yan could ask her Ancient Void Dragon subordinates to monitor Xiao Yan, and trusted them not to betray their clan.

Lin Feng arranged for Zi Yan to have an Ancient Void Dragon watch Xiao Yan and sent Feng Qing’er to investigate a Soul Hall branch for Xiao Yan’s teacher. After spending several days with his wives, Lin Feng left for the Dan Family, while Xiao Yan recovered after Xuan Kongzi removed Xiao Yi Xian’s poison.

• Lin Feng gave Zi Yan two Eight-grade Six-colored medicinal pills and asked her to arrange for a reliable dragon to monitor Xiao Yan.

• Lin Feng told his wives he planned to visit the Dan Family, then spent several days with them before setting out for Dan City.
• Xuan Kongzi forced Xiao Yi Xian’s poison out of Xiao Yan’s body and helped him regain consciousness with a high-grade medicinal pill.

After waking, Xiao Yan learned that Lin Feng had taken Three Thousand Burning Flame and resented losing another Heavenly Flame to him. The Pill Tower Three Giants discovered that Xiao Yi Xian’s Calamity Poison Body was under control, and Xiao Yan realized Lin Feng had likely used the Poison Pill Method; he grew interested when they concluded Lin Feng must have found another Heavenly Flame.

• Xiao Yan learned from Xuan Kongzi that Lin Feng had taken Three Thousand Burning Flame with help from the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan, and he angrily blamed Lin Feng for stealing two Heavenly Flames from him.

• Xiao Yan explained that the Poison Pill Method required Bodhi Body Transformation Saliva, a seventh-tier-or-higher Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast magic core, and three Heavenly Flames.
• Tian Lei Zi concluded that Lin Feng must know another Heavenly Flame wielder, and Xiao Yan’s eyes lit up at the news.

Xiao Yan learned that the Pill Tower was investigating Yao Chen’s whereabouts and resolved to recover before absorbing the Nine Dragon Lightning Seal Fire. Xuan Kongzi also offered a Soul Body a chance to regain his physical body, hoping to recruit him for Yao Chen’s rescue.

• Xiao Yan suggested using Xiao Yi Xian’s Calamity Poison Body to persuade Lin Feng to reveal who lent him a Heavenly Flame.

• Xiao Yan decided to heal first and then absorb the Nine Dragon Lightning Seal Fire to grow stronger before rescuing Yao Chen.
• Xuan Kongzi revealed that he had rescued the Two-star Dou Zun, who had lost his physical body after fighting the Soul Hall.
• Xuan Kongzi told the Two-star Dou Zun that Xiao Yan could restore his body, and the Dou Zun promised to serve Xiao Yan in return.

Xiao Yan offered to restore the Two-star Dou Zun’s body, but warned that the Resurrection Secret Method would weaken him unless they found rare materials. Xuan Kongzi offered to gather them in exchange for the Dou Zun helping Xiao Yan rescue someone from a Soul Hall Branch Hall, and the Dou Zun refused out of fear.

• Xiao Yan agreed to help the Two-star Dou Zun recover his body but said the method would limit him to Peak Dou Zong using his original body.
• Xiao Yan explained that rare materials could restore the Dou Zun’s strength and might even help him reach Six-star or Seven-star Dou Zun.
• Xuan Kongzi offered to find the materials if the Dou Zun helped Xiao Yan rescue someone from a Soul Hall Branch Hall.
• The Two-star Dou Zun refused, saying he would not go to the Soul Hall after barely escaping death at the hands of a Soul Hall Venerable.

Xiao Yan persuaded a Two-star Dou Zun to join him by promising to revive him as a Seven-star Dou Zun and help him take revenge. The expert agreed and entered Xiao Yan’s Storage Ring while awaiting revival.

• Xiao Yan assured the Two-star Dou Zun that rescuing someone from a Soul Hall Branch Hall would be a low-risk surprise attack with several Dou Zun allies.
• The Two-star Dou Zun accepted Xiao Yan’s offer and pledged to follow him if Xiao Yan revived him and raised his cultivation to Seven-star Dou Zun.
• Xiao Yan offered to eliminate the Two-star Dou Zun’s enemy clan, and the expert gave him the clan’s location and information about its members.
• Xiao Yan promised that the clan would be destroyed within a month and offered to use the expert’s original body to revive and strengthen one of his clansmen.
• The Two-star Dou Zun thanked Xiao Yan and entered his Storage Ring to wait for the revival.
