• Zhang Geyang explained that Yun Ze would emerge after finishing the absorption, and he and the others watched Yun Ze through surveillance.
• Zhang Geyang contacted Qian Gu Dong Feng, who welcomed the situation and told him to make use of it.

• Zhang Geyang ended the dispute over the Nine-Tailed Flame Fox and let Yun Ze, Gu Yue Na, and Di Tian select another top-grade Soul Spirit.
