Sikong Jing found Ye Wucan and Pei Yupo hiding in a small city and went to capture them without alerting Murong Jianyun. As Pei Yupo learned that Pei Chang and Fenglei Emperor were dead, he blamed Ye Wucan for his defeat and berated him.
Ye Wucan refused to give Pei Yupo the Qianyuan Fragment Maps and planned to abandon him and seek refuge at Willow Leaf Holy Manor. Sikong Jing and Old Fat Head caught him plotting, and Old Fat Head stabbed him from behind.
Sikong Jing had Ye Wucan killed and confronted Pei Yupo, demanding more names from the Thousand Prison Tower's list of pieces. Pei Yupo was left with little choice as Sikong Jing offered him only a swifter death in exchange for information.
Sikong Jing learned that the Wind Thunder Roaring Beast had reached the Saint Martial Stage and was approaching Pei Yupo, forcing him to abandon his interrogation. After discovering Pei Yusheng was aboard and intended to kill Pei Yupo, Sikong Jing killed Pei Yupo and disappeared into the darkness.
Sikong Jing hid in the manor while Pei Yusheng and the Wind Thunder Roaring Beast arrived and mistook Ye Wucan for Pei Yupo’s killer. Pei Yusheng then began reviving Pei Yupo so he could devour him, leaving Sikong Jing stunned as Pei Yupo’s heart started beating again.
Sikong Jing watched as Pei Yusheng revived Pei Yupo and revealed his secret Innate Saint Body and plan to devour his brother’s Battle Body. The chapter ended with Pei Yusheng attacking Pei Yupo to consume his bloodline.
Sikong Jing interrupted Pei Yusheng’s attempt to devour Pei Yupo by using beast poison to weaken the Wind Thunder Roaring Beast’s protective shroud, then rescued Pei Yupo. He escaped Willow Leaf City aboard the Armor-Splitting Flying Scorpion, but Pei Yusheng sent the beast after him.
Sikong Jing fled the Saint Martial Stage Wind Thunder Roaring Beast with Pei Yupo, who began writing the Thousand Prison Tower’s list. Murong Jianyun arrived to slow their pursuer, but he was badly injured, and the group had less than two quarters of an hour to escape unless he recovered.
Sikong Jing and Murong Jianyun planned how to escape the pursuing Wind Thunder Roaring Beast without sacrificing troops. Sikong Jing chose to head toward Overlord Heaven City, where the Dark Wing Dragon Eagle would meet them and help confront the beast.
While fleeing the Wind Thunder Roaring Beast, Sikong Jing laid out a plan to delay an all-out war with the Thousand Kings Holy Tower by revealing the Tyrant Heaven Chamber of Commerce’s strength and drawing other factions into its interests. He left Murong Jianyun facing the painful final step: expelling Sikong Jing from the Chamber of Commerce to remove the Thousand Kings Holy Tower’s pretext for war.
Sikong Jing obtained intelligence on the Thousand Kings Holy Tower from Pei Yupo and coordinated a plan with Murong Jianyun to counter Pei Kuang’s accusations. As the group fled the Wind Thunder Roaring Beast, Old Fat Head left to spread their message, while Pei Yusheng and the beast wondered how Murong Jianyun kept up his speed.
Sikong Jing and Murong Jianyun evaded Pei Yusheng’s pursuit for five days, while Pei Yusheng accepted that his secret would be exposed and decided to negotiate. The chapter ended with Pei Yusheng stopping the chase and telling Sikong Jing that he wanted to discuss their potential rivalry.
Pei Yusheng tried to bargain for Pei Yupo by offering Sikong Jing a supposed method to conquer Saint Martial Stage demon beasts. The negotiation was interrupted when a Dark Wing Dragon Eagle approached from the direction of Overlord Heaven City.
Sikong Jing used the Dark Wing Dragon Eagle’s arrival to overturn Pei Yusheng’s negotiations and demonstrated that he could fuse with a Saint Martial demonic beast. He and Murong Jianyun attacked Pei Yusheng and the Wind Thunder Roaring Beast from both sides, leaving Pei Yusheng scrambling to guess how Sikong Jing achieved such power.
Sikong Jing and Murong Jianyun fought the Wind Thunder Roaring Beast, drawing crowds who learned about the Willow Leaf City war and the Tyrant Heaven Chamber of Commerce’s hidden strength. With Murong Jianyun weakened and the beast difficult to kill, Sikong Jing let the Dark Wing Dragon Eagle continue the fight and resumed negotiating with Pei Yusheng over Pei Yupo’s return.
Sikong Jing killed Pei Yupo, thwarting Pei Yusheng’s attempt to devour him, and forced Pei Yusheng to retreat. After Sikong Jing and Murong Jianyun returned toward Willow Leaf City, a Thousand Kings Holy Tower agent spread a false account blaming the Tyrant Heaven Chamber of Commerce, but Elder Zhang called it a smear campaign.
Sikong Jing returned toward Willow Leaf City while consolidating his recent breakthroughs and studying the Dark Wing Dragon Eagle’s Saint Martial meridians. After five days, he reached the ruins outside the city and activated the Qianyuan War Emperor’s illusory inheritance.
Sikong Jing studied the Qianyuan War Emperor’s battle formations in seclusion while the survivors of Willow Leaf City evacuated toward Overlord Heaven City. At the Thousand Kings Holy Tower, Pei Kuang heard the account of Sikong Jing’s deeds and was urged to have Ba Hun’s heir killed at once.
Pei Kuang concluded that the Thousand Kings Holy Tower only needed to deal with the Tyrant Heaven Chamber of Commerce and ordered new missions against its leaders. He then turned to the news that his youngest son, Pei Yusheng, possessed an Innate Saint Body and planned to devour Pei Yupo.
Pei Kuang confronted Madam Civet after discovering Pei Yusheng’s Sacred Body, and learned that she had come from Boundless Sea to recover and bear him a son. She revealed that she intended to use Thousand Kings Holy Tower to capture a husband and wife from Boundless Sea, while Pei Kuang demanded to know who they were.
Madam Raccoon persuaded Pei Kuang to cooperate by partially deciphering his Heavenly Pattern Treasure Artifact, then identified her quarry as a man surnamed Sikong. Pei Kuang connected him to Sikong Jing and accepted a treasure that could test Imperial Bloodlines and Sacred Bodies; three days later, Sikong Jing emerged from the Qianyuan War Emperor's illusion realm with a formidable army-slaying aura.
Sikong Jing advanced his Qianyuan Battle-Killing Formation, honored the Qianyuan War Emperor and Ancestor Liu Duoye at the Willow Leaf Sacred Wall, and promised to return and open its gate. He then agreed to protect Xiong Tingting and her daughter by arranging for Pei Xie to die before Xiong Tingting carried out her mission, and set off for Overlord Heaven City.
Xiong Tingting pledged to risk her life to help Sikong Jing, while Pei Yusheng was named the Thousand Kings Holy Son after revealing his third-grade Gold Battle King Body. Madam Raccoon prepared to join Pei Yugong’s mission to the Tyrant Heaven Chamber of Commerce, hoping to identify Sikong Jing as the son of the couple she once hunted.
Madam Raccoon revealed her plans to exploit Sikong Jing’s bloodline and return to Boundless Sea, while Sikong Jing returned to a crowded Overlord Heaven City on the day the Overlord Soul Hundred-Man Army-Slaying Formation went on sale. He headed to meet Murong Jianyun before dealing with Pei Xie and seeking Yue Xi and Ling'er.
Sikong Jing found Su Yuexi, disguised as Wen Xi, being harassed by Nan Hedun and his allies. Nan Hedun ordered his men to seize the Thoughtless Sacred Sect disciples, while Sikong Jing watched from above.
