Ah Yin reached Soul Saint and left The Manor to explore the world after Qian Yufeng warned her to avoid men surnamed Tang and anyone with the Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul.

• Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo revealed the attacker as a winged, fanged monster and ordered the remaining Soul Kings to retreat.

• Qian Xunji received Chrysanthemum Douluo's urgent report, and Qian Yufeng left Spirit City alone to assist the two elders.

Qian Yufeng arrived in time to rescue Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo from Tang Chen, who was possessed by the Blood-Red Nine-Headed Bat King. After defeating him in a sword fight, Qian Yufeng watched Tang Chen fly away and returned to Spirit Hall with the two elders.

Xue Ye sent officials to investigate the farming tools that Qian Yufeng had introduced, hoping to use them to increase harvests and strengthen the empire's standing. The experts discovered how much the tools improved the soil, while Qian Yufeng ordered his guards to stop anyone from taking them away.

• Xue Ye received a letter from the Rain Family and decided to send Agriculture Department officials to investigate the farming tools and consider reproducing them for the empire.
• Seven days later, Yu Lan welcomed three agricultural experts and seven Soul Saint guards, then arranged for them to change clothes before visiting the villages.
• Qian Yufeng learned that Xue Ye had sent officials to study the tools and ordered a hidden guard to stop them if they tried to take any away.

• The Heaven Dou Empire's investigators returned without obtaining the villagers' farming tools, and Xue Ye grew furious at the Rain Family's apparent support for the nobles.
