• Lu Ye met Master Yu, who recognized that a Divine Sea Realm cultivator had damaged the saber, and they agreed on its repair price and delivery time in a Heaven's Mystery Contract.

Lu Ye bought a one-use Myriad Demon Ridge Battlefield Mark and considered saving Battle Merit to purchase a Soul Artifact to protect himself from Divine Sea Realm cultivators.

Lu Ye received the Twin Dragons Guarding the Sea technique from the Golden Flood Dragon and Silver Flood Dragon, strengthening his soul defenses. While flying to Vast Sky City to advance his Military Rank, he encountered a masked cultivator whose distinctive mask reminded him of the woman who had helped him on the Cloud River Battlefield.

• Lu Ye repeatedly encountered a masked cultivator asking whether he was Lu Yiye, and realized an unknown expert had trapped him in a treasure-made space.
• The masked cultivator said his lord wanted to meet Lu Ye and tested his abilities, but Lu Ye's fierce saber attacks forced him to retreat before the elder's power sent Lu Ye flying.

• Lu Ye asked Nian Yuexian for permission to join Geng Wuwang’s squad, and she approved.
• Qian Wudang learned Lu Ye had advanced to True Lake Tier One Captain in a month and wondered how he had earned so much Battlefield Merit.

• Xiao Ruyun questioned Lu Ye’s usefulness because of his low cultivation, but Geng Wuwang defended him and ordered the squad to depart.
• As the squad traveled by Spirit Boat, Kang Yuanqiao explained that the Law Enforcement Division was understaffed because its dangerous missions required True Lake Realm cultivators.

Lu Ye joined Squad A3 on a Law Enforcement Division mission to Immortal Radiance Mountain, where the squad planned to arrest one of the sect’s senior members. After Sect Master An Mofeng learned whom they were targeting, he led Geng Wuwang and the others toward the valley where their target waited.

The Law Enforcement Squad arrested Ning Hu, an Immortal Radiance Mountain elder exposed as a Myriad Demon Ridge agent, but Lu Ye sensed danger and attacked before Ning Hu revealed his hidden Divine Sea Realm cultivation. The chapter ended with Lu Ye’s saber still descending as Ning Hu wondered why the seemingly weaker cultivator had resisted his Divine Sense assault.

• Geng Wuwang and the Law Enforcement Squad surrounded Ning Hu, sealed his Spiritual Power, and announced the charges against him.
• Ning Hu admitted to being a Hidden Agent of Myriad Demon Ridge and told An Mofeng that he had committed many acts against the Vast Sky Alliance.
• Ning Hu warned An Mofeng about the danger of sect annihilation, prompting Lu Ye’s sense of danger to surge.
• Lu Ye attacked Ning Hu with his flaming saber, and Ning Hu unleashed a Divine Sense assault that broke the Spirit Restraint Locks and knocked most of the squad toward the lake.
• Ning Hu’s Divine Sense assault failed to affect Lu Ye, whose saber continued its strike as Ning Hu realized the younger cultivator was unusual.

Lu Ye and Squad A3 discovered that Ning Hu was a Tier Two Divine Sea Realm Hidden Agent of Myriad Demon Ridge, and his assault left Geng Wuwang unconscious while An Mofeng chased him toward the sect. With Geng Wuwang down and Ning Hu slaughtering people at Immortal Radiance Mountain, the remaining squad members argued over whether to flee or intervene.

• Ning Hu broke free of his restraints and attacked, but Lu Ye resisted his divine sense and survived a powerful punch using Moon Return and other defenses.
• An Mofeng and Geng Wuwang recovered from Ning Hu's divine sense attack, and Geng Wuwang charged him while An Mofeng confronted him about being a Hidden Agent of Myriad Demon Ridge.
• Ning Hu severely wounded Geng Wuwang, then flew toward the depths of Immortal Radiance Mountain to destroy the sect as An Mofeng pursued him.
• Amber emerged from the lake carrying Lu Ye and the unconscious Geng Wuwang, and Squad A3 regrouped and sent word to Vast Sky City.
• As reports of Ning Hu's slaughter reached them, Kang Yuanqiao and Xiao Ruyun argued over whether Squad A3 should join Immortal Radiance Mountain's defenders or leave the dangerous area.
