She suspected Li Pu had claimed the garden first, then negotiated with Dugu Bo to buy Immortal Herbs for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

• Ning Rongrong proposed using a Soul Bone to contain Dugu Bo’s poison, but Dugu Bo pointed out the treatment’s fatal long-term flaw.

• Dugu Bo rejected the offer of half the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect’s wealth for the herbs, and Ning Fengzhi proposed paying that amount for two.

Li Pu negotiated with Ning Fengzhi for the Aromatic Silk Beauty, demanding the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect’s treasury in exchange. After the sect surrendered its treasures, Ning Rongrong began absorbing the herb, hoping to evolve her Martial Soul.

• Dugu Bo told Ning Fengzhi he would consult Li Pu before deciding whether to trade an Immortal Herb for half the sect’s wealth.

• Ning Rongrong grew increasingly uncomfortable as the Aromatic Silk Beauty's excess medicinal power threatened to overwhelm her.
• Bone Douluo Gu Rong blamed Li Pu, but Ning Fengzhi stopped him and asked Li Pu to save Ning Rongrong, agreeing to pay extra.

Li Pu revealed that he could condense Soul Rings, making Ning Fengzhi reconsider his power and prepare for both possibilities about his origins. Ning Rongrong decided to seek Tang San after obtaining a Second Soul Ring, hoping to secure a marriage that would benefit the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

• Li Pu explained that he had given Ning Rongrong a First Soul Ring with a defensive skill and said Soul Rings could be condensed from sufficient energy.
• Ning Fengzhi recognized the value of Li Pu's secret method and agreed to pay the additional costs, while remaining cautious about Li Pu's background.
• After Li Pu and Dugu Bo left, Ning Rongrong argued that a god behind Li Pu would not necessarily help him and said she still believed in her memories.

• Ning Rongrong said she intended to replace Tang San's female lead and pursue a marriage that would bring greater benefits to the sect.

• Ning Rongrong revealed that Xue Kao had taken the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well and had a Super Douluo bodyguard.

Tang San and Ning Rongrong discussed how the stolen Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well had ruined Tang San’s plans for Immortal Herbs and his Godhood Inheritance. Tang San decided to wait until his body was ready before sneaking in to take the herbs, then agreed to leave Nuoding City for Suotuo City.

• Tang San realized that the reincarnators had taken the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well and might threaten his planned Godhood Inheritance.
• Ning Rongrong told Tang San that the other side had permanently cured Dugu Bo’s poison backlash, eliminating Tang San’s chance to use Dugu Bo to claim the herbs.
• Tang San decided they would sneak into the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well when its Super Douluo guardian was away and take the herbs he needed.
• Tang San postponed the plan because his body was not ready to absorb the poisonous Immortal Herbs.
• Tang San agreed with Ning Rongrong that they should leave Nuoding City and meet their companions in Suotuo City.
