• Dai Mubai recalled that Xue Beng had forced him to drink a poison that would suppress his sexual desire for at least seven years, and Tang San and Xiao Huohuo could not find a cure.
• Yu Xiaogang suggested that Wang Zhao, the master of Dragon King Hall, might cure Dai Mubai, but Dai Mubai doubted they could invite him.

Flender told Dai Mubai that the Dragon King Hall Lord had offered a possible cure if they found the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum. Tang San and Huo Yuhao revealed it was an Immortal Herb, and Tang San described other herbs that could help the Shrek group.

• Zhao Wuji told the group that Liu Erlong worked under the Dragon King Hall Lord, and Flender agreed to ask her for help with Dai Mubai's condition.

Xiao Wu worried that Ma Hongjun, Oscar, and Dai Mubai had turned their attention to Jiang Zhu, while Xiao Huohuo refined pills and trained. Tang San, losing hope of finding Dugu Bo and the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, decided to reveal himself to Tang Hao and seek his support.

• Xiao Wu lamented her fading influence over Ma Hongjun, Oscar, and Dai Mubai, and resolved to rely on her appearance to win their attention back.

• Tang San woke in Sunset Forest, discovered that his Storage Soul Tool was missing, and found himself surrounded by Gale Demon Wolves.
• Tang San summoned his Clear Sky Hammer and used Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer to fight the wolves.
