Chapter Summary: Mistook You? A Gift from the Star Luo Empire?

Key Plot Points and Events

• Lu Li receives a system notification that his spiritual strength has increased, though the displayed advancement is absurdly written as “Divine Origin Realm, Beginner → Beginner.”
• At a royal banquet, Emperor Dai Tianling urges his daughter, Dai Yun’er, to apologize to Lu Li for previously insulting and misunderstanding him.
• Lu Li assures the emperor that he is not offended and says he plans to remain in Star Luo City for more than a week to experience the continent with his companions.
• Wu Siduo and Dai Yun’er speak with Na’er, confirming that she is Lu Li’s younger sister. They admire Lu Li’s strength and appearance, while Dai Yun’er becomes suspicious because Na’er has silver hair whereas Lu Li has black hair.
• Dai Yun’er asks Na’er about the dispute over the title “Holy Dragon.” Na’er explains that Lu Li had formerly possessed the title “Golden Holy Dragon King,” while En Ci, whose martial soul was the Bright Holy Dragon, had also been known as Holy Dragon Douluo. Since En Ci changed his title to Holy Domain, Lu Li could rightfully use “Holy Dragon.”
• Realizing she had misunderstood Lu Li and unfairly accused him, Dai Yun’er sincerely apologizes. Lu Li readily forgives her, emphasizing that she had no malicious intentions.
• Dai Tianling presents Lu Li with a treasured relic of the Star Luo Empire: a divine sword left by their ancestor, Dai Mubai. The artifact supposedly contains the principles of a Rank Two God’s inheritance, but no one in the empire has ever activated it.
• Mountain angrily rejects the gift as unworthy of Lu Li, believing that an inheritance connected to a Rank Two God is insignificant compared with Lu Li’s status and power.
• Lu Li restrains Mountain and politely refuses the artifact, saying that accepting such a valuable gift without having earned it would be improper. He suggests that the relic remain available to Star Luo’s younger geniuses.

Chapter Summary: “Things to Do Before Leaving...”

Key Plot Points and Events

• Lingling wakes beside Lu Li after their intimate night together. Both recall the previous evening, and their relationship becomes more openly affectionate. Lu Li gives her new clothes and asks her to stop calling him “Master,” leading her to address him as “Brother Li.”
• That afternoon, Lu Li and his companions attend a grand banquet at the Star Luo Imperial Palace. Emperor Dai Tianling hosts them to apologize for Dai Yun’er’s earlier disrespect and to establish a stronger relationship with Lu Li.
• Dai Tianling is stunned to discover that Lu Li has brought nine additional powerful individuals, each apparently comparable to a Limit Douluo. He realizes how overwhelming Lu Li’s forces are and becomes even more eager to maintain peace and friendship with him.
• Lu Li reveals that he and his companions—including Nana, Lingling, and Ya Li—intend to remain in Star Luo City for at least a week to experience the continent’s customs.
• Lu Li receives a system reward for winning Dai Yun’er’s favor, increasing his spiritual power by ten percent. The system’s description of his realm advancement is confusing and somewhat absurd, as it announces an apparent increase from the “Initial Divine Origin Realm” to the same realm.
• During the banquet, Wu Siduo and Dai Yun’er question Na’er about her relationship with Lu Li. Na’er explains that the dispute over the “Holy Dragon” title was a misunderstanding: Lu Li’s title came from his identity as the Golden Holy Dragon King, while the former State Preceptor’s title came from his Bright Holy Dragon Martial Soul.
• Dai Yun’er finally realizes that she had unfairly judged Lu Li. Encouraged by Na’er and Wu Siduo, she sincerely apologizes. Lu Li accepts her apology without resentment and tells Dai Tianling that children often act without malicious intent.
• Dai Tianling then presents Lu Li with an ancient divine artifact inherited from Ancestor Dai Mubai. The sword supposedly contains the principles needed to inherit a Rank Two God’s power.
• Mountain reacts angrily, declaring that a Rank Two God’s inheritance is far beneath Lu Li’s status and accusing the emperor of insulting his lord. Lu Li stops Mountain from escalating the situation and politely declines the artifact, saying that he has not earned such a gift and that it should remain with Star Luo’s own geniuses.

• Dai Yun’er: Changes significantly, moving from suspicion and hostility toward Lu Li to embarrassment, self-reflection, and sincere remorse. She accepts Na’er’s explanation and apologizes.
• Na’er: Acts as a gentle mediator. She defends Lu Li, explains the title dispute, and helps Dai Yun’er overcome her misunderstanding without humiliating her.
• Dai Tianling: Becomes increasingly awed by Lu Li’s power and seeks to secure a lasting alliance. He is relieved when Dai Yun’er apologizes and is willing to sacrifice a treasured imperial artifact to strengthen their relationship.
• Mountain: Shows fierce loyalty and reverence toward Lu Li, but his anger reveals how highly Lu Li is regarded by his followers. Lu Li’s calm correction demonstrates his authority over Mountain.
