• Su Mo dismissed Yu Longxin's excuses and said the biggest flaw in his plan was that Yu Longxin was too much of a piece of trash.

Back at the hotel, Gu Yue questioned Su Mo about his fighting techniques and confronted him about other girls before a knock interrupted their kiss; Xu Xiaoyan and Mu Xi then rushed in.

• Ya Li recalled following her brother through the slums and helping people, and reflected that a sudden fire had taken away the ordinary life she might have had.
• Ya Li acknowledged that she had never been intimate with Yun Ming and was only a passing guest in Shrek despite their marriage.

• Gu Yue kissed Su Mo, but a knock interrupted them, and Xu Xiaoyan and Mu Xi hurried into the hotel room.

Su Mo went to the Tianhai Treasury to claim the five treasures promised by the Skysea Alliance after defeating a Shrek disciple. Among the treasury’s rarest offerings, he chose an unknown diamond-shaped fragment that he suspected was a Plane Fragment.

• Mu Xi told Su Mo that reporters were swarming anyone wearing an East Sea badge, and Su Mo hid his wet pants behind an excuse before changing.

• Su Mo recognized the fragment as a Plane Fragment.

Su Mo accepted a strange black fragment from Elder Shui, then secretly marked the Tianhai Treasury with Flying Thunder God before returning to the Ragnar Hotel. He rejected Long Huantian’s offer to join Tianhai Academy and went to focus on uncovering the fragment’s secrets.

• Elder Shui urged Su Mo to take the unusual black fragment, and Su Mo stored it away despite sensing something discordant about it.
• Su Mo selected several more spiritual treasures for Gu Yue and the others, then secretly inscribed a Flying Thunder God formula beneath his feet as he left the Tianhai Treasury.
• Su Mo returned to the Ragnar Hotel and found Long Huantian, Zhang Zhenpeng, the mayor, and others waiting to recruit him.
• Long Huantian and the mayor offered Su Mo access to Tianhai Academy’s and Tianhai City’s resources, while Long Hengxu urged him to stay at Eastsea Academy.
• Su Mo rejected Tianhai Academy’s invitation and told Long Hengxu not to bother him because he had something important to do.

Su Mo showed Gu Yue a Plane Fragment from the Tianhai Treasury, and she discovered that it contained Plane Origin and the power of the fallen God of Love. Despite Su Mo refusing to fuse with it, Gu Yue forced the fragment into his body, sending his consciousness to the white space where he had first met the Plane Spirit.

• Su Mo visited Gu Yue and showed her the Plane Fragment he had found in the Tianhai Treasury.
• Gu Yue examined Su Mo and concluded that he was the Child of the Plane of the Douluo Continent.
• Gu Yue explained that the fragment contained Plane Origin and Emotional Power belonging to the fallen God of Love.
• Su Mo refused to fuse with the fragment because he feared its influence, but Gu Yue insisted it would help him.
• Gu Yue secretly fused the Plane Fragment into Su Mo, and his consciousness arrived in the familiar white space where he had met the Plane Spirit.

Su Mo returned to Origin Space and learned that the Plane Spirit had failed to preserve his Chakra system perfectly during his reincarnation, explaining his repeated inability to fuse Magnet Release. The Plane Spirit blamed her incomplete authority for the Universal Laws’ insufficient recognition of his Martial Soul, but the solution remained unclear.

• Su Mo asked the Plane Spirit about Tang Hao and his wife, and she said Tang Hao was contesting her authority while his wife was draining Plane Life Origin from Shrek.
• The Plane Spirit explained that Su Mo reached Origin Space because his remaining Plane Origin Power resonated with a Plane Fragment fused into him by Gu Yue.
• Su Mo discovered from the Plane Spirit’s guilty reaction that she had not perfectly preserved his Chakra system during his reincarnation.
• The Plane Spirit said her incomplete authority had caused the Universal Laws to limit Su Mo’s Martial Soul, leaving him to question why her Martial Soul-creation authority had not fixed the problem.

Su Mo learned that he needed eight kinds of divine power for the Universal Laws to recognize Chakra as a Martial Soul, and that the God of Love’s blessing already counted as one. After returning from Origin Space, he sensed the blessing’s effect and warned Gu Yue not to act on her own without his permission.

• The Plane Spirit told Su Mo that a god’s blessing could increase the Universal Laws’ recognition of his Martial Soul, and that his status as a Child of the Plane would make absorbed divine power count as a blessing.
• The Plane Spirit explained that Su Mo needed eight kinds of divine power, including the God of Love’s power already inside him, and named several other sources while admitting she did not know where the Rakshasa God’s and Angel God’s power remained.
• The Plane Spirit absorbed the excess Plane Origin in Su Mo’s body to return his consciousness from Origin Space.
• Su Mo came to his senses as Gu Yue waved her hand in front of him, then slapped her butt and warned her not to act without his permission.
• Su Mo sensed the God of Love’s blessing, which let him and a woman he had joined with sense each other’s condition regardless of distance.

Su Mo told Gu Yue that the Plane Spirit had revealed Tang Hao and his wife's theft of its authority, and Gu Yue suspected Tang San had allowed it for a reason connected to the Abyssal Plane. She argued that Tang San may have deliberately lured the Abyssal Plane to Douluo Continent, whose declining laws would have made an invasion possible.

• Su Mo explained the Blessing of the God of Love to Gu Yue, who said she had not known its effects before fusing the Plane Fragment into him.
• Su Mo told Gu Yue that his consciousness had entered Origin Space and that he had met the Plane Spirit.
• Su Mo recounted the Plane Spirit's revelations about Tang Hao and his wife stealing Plane Authority, and Gu Yue questioned why the Plane Spirit had been able to resist them for so long.
• Gu Yue reasoned that Tang San had deliberately allowed Tang Hao's actions and might have been preparing for the Abyssal Plane's arrival.
• Gu Yue explained that the Abyssal Plane could invade a Material Plane only when its laws had begun to blur as the plane declined.

Gu Yue explained why she suspected Tang San had schemed against the Abyssal Plane, then admitted to Su Mo that her current strength was far weaker than her bluffs suggested. Su Mo reassured her and gave Tang Wulin a gift, leaving Tang Wulin pleased that the present was not meant for Gu Yue alone.

• Gu Yue reasoned that Tang San's actions had weakened the plane's laws and that he had likely schemed against the Abyssal Plane, then proposed waiting for its conflict with Tang San to end.
• When Su Mo questioned whether they could profit from the conflict, Gu Yue admitted her god-rank spiritual power was her only remaining strength and that she had bluffed to Di Tian and the others.
• Su Mo promised to keep Gu Yue's weakness secret and comforted her, but urgent knocking interrupted their intimate moment.
• Tang Wulin arrived with a gift for Gu Yue and reacted with dismay when he found Su Mo in her room.
• Su Mo gave Tang Wulin a gift box and said everyone in Class Zero would receive one, cheering Tang Wulin up.

Su Mo gave Gu Yue the Seven Treasure Heart Protecting Grass and shared a kiss with her before returning to his residence to test the powers he had gained from the Blessing of the God of Love. He discovered that one power could manipulate metal and concluded the other was likely another form of Magnet Release.

• Tang Wulin visited Su Mo, thanked him for the gift, and left after learning Gu Yue was refining the Seven Treasure Heart Protecting Grass.
• Gu Yue asked Su Mo whether he was jealous of Tang Wulin, and Su Mo reassured her before giving her the grass as an advance betrothal gift.
• Gu Yue kissed Su Mo on the cheek, then gave in to his request for a real kiss before fleeing to refine the grass.
• Su Mo returned to his residence and tried to use the strange powers he had sensed after receiving the Blessing of the God of Love.
• Su Mo used one power to bend the metal cutlery into scrap and concluded that both powers were forms of Magnet Release.

Su Mo discovered that his Magnet Release combined the ability to magnetize objects with the power to control metal, letting him lift even nonmetallic Cloud Glaze Stone, but his Soul Power was depleted. As he considered how to obtain a powerful and trustworthy source of Soul Power, Ye Xinglan messaged him from the train, and they agreed to meet again at Shrek in three years.

• Su Mo tested his newly manifested Magnet Release and used it to make flowers curve onto a table and lift the nonmetallic Cloud Glaze Stone tabletop.
• Su Mo realized the two forms of Magnet Release had fused, likely because the God of Love's blessing weakened the Universal Laws' restrictions on his Chakra Martial Soul.
• Su Mo discovered he had no Soul Power reserves left and decided he needed a powerful, loyal source of energy, considering Di Tian and the other Ferocious Beasts too risky because they could uncover his secrets.
• Ye Xinglan messaged Su Mo that she was heading back, and Su Mo replied that they would meet again at Shrek in three years.
• Ye Xinglan rejoiced at Su Mo's message while Ning Yu teased her on the train, as the other passengers remained gloomy over Yu Longxin's defeat by Su Mo.

• Xu Xiaoyan excitedly introduced herself to Leng Yaozhu, then left to find Su Mo when Gu Yue said she and her teacher needed to talk.

Leng Yaozhu visited Tianhai City to recruit Su Mo and discovered his relationship with Gu Yue, then confronted him about courting other girls. The confrontation shifted when she recognized the Phoenix Jade Pendant Su Mo wore and demanded to know where he had gotten it.

Leng Yulai confessed to Leng Yaozhu that Su Mo was her child husband, making him Leng Yaozhu’s brother-in-law rather than her son-in-law. She revealed that she had once planned to use Gu Yue to take revenge, but claimed she now accepted Gu Yue being with Su Mo while refusing to give him up.

• Leng Yaozhu apologized to Leng Yulai for her role in Leng Yulai becoming an Evil Soul Master and promised to seek justice for her.
• Leng Yulai asked Leng Yaozhu to protect Su Mo, then revealed that he was her child husband and Leng Yaozhu’s brother-in-law.

• Leng Yulai admitted that she had originally urged Su Mo to approach Gu Yue so he could make Gu Yue fall in love with him and then abandon her as revenge against Leng Yaozhu.
• Leng Yulai told Leng Yaozhu she had given up that revenge and could accept Gu Yue being with Su Mo, but insisted that Su Mo would remain her child husband.

Leng Yulai persuaded Leng Yaozhu to agree to a plan involving Su Mo, then ended their call before her sister could reconsider.

• Xie Xie told Wu Zhangkong that Xu Xiaoyan had posted about meeting Heavenly Phoenix Douluo Leng Yaozhu, and Wu Zhangkong relaxed when he learned she was Gu Yue’s teacher.
