Chapter Summaries

Xiao Yan checked on the Xiao Household in his Portable Space, then found Xiao Yi Xian unconscious as her Woeful Poison Body erupted. He helped her purge and refine her accumulated toxins through dual cultivation, and they both reached Dou Wang before the Portable Space changed again.

• Xiao Yan watched the Xiao Household’s younger generation complete their cultivation tests and saw how much they had advanced.
• Xiao Yan visited Gu He and Nalan Yanran in the Portable Space, then used a Spatial Anchor to appear in Scorpion Town.
• Xiao Yan found Xiao Yi Xian unconscious from her Woeful Poison Body’s eruption and brought her and her poison bottles into the Portable Space.
• Xiao Yan absorbed the toxins from Xiao Yi Xian’s body while they cultivated together, refining the poison into Dou Qi.
• Xiao Yan and Xiao Yi Xian consumed the bottles of poison over seven days and seven nights, and both advanced to Dou Wang.
• Xiao Yan’s Portable Space changed after his advancement.

After advancing to One-Star Dou Wang, Xiao Yan tested his movable Spatial Anchor by placing anchors inside Xiao Yi Xian and Ya Fei, allowing him to reach them from afar. He returned to Jia Nan Academy to stabilize his cultivation, where Queen Medusa suddenly emerged from her long slumber.

• Xiao Yan discovered that his Portable Space had grown larger and its Spatial Anchor had become movable, then placed an anchor inside Xiao Yi Xian and tested it in the Scorpion Mountain Range.
• Xiao Yi Xian revealed that she had reached Dou Wang, and Xiao Yan stayed in Scorpion Town for several days, accompanying her and refining an Emperor's Extreme Pill for Hai Bodong.
• Xiao Yan traveled to the Mittel Family estate, reunited with Ya Fei, helped her advance from One-Star to Four-Star Dou Master, and placed a Spatial Anchor inside her.
• Xiao Yan returned to Jia Nan Academy and stabilized his One-Star Dou Wang realm after about ten days of cultivation in the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower.
• Queen Medusa seized control of her body and appeared beside Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan agreed to refine a Spirit-Merging Pill for Medusa and used his control over the Portable Space to restrain her while he made it. After giving her the pill, he released her and left the space, while Medusa wanted to test the pill before returning to the Jia Ma Empire.

• Medusa appeared in Xiao Yan's cultivation chamber and asked him to refine a Spirit-Merging Pill in exchange for a favor.
• Xiao Yan agreed, seized Medusa's arm, and took her into the Portable Space, where he restrained her with spatial power.
• Xiao Yan spent nearly a day refining the Spirit-Merging Pill from medicinal ingredients and a sixth-rank water-element magic core.
• Xiao Yan placed the finished pill in a jade bottle and gave it to Medusa, saying he would take her back to the Jia Ma Empire.
• Medusa said she wanted to test the pill first, and Xiao Yan released her and flashed out of the space.

After Medusa discovered that the Seven-Colored Heaven-Swallowing Python’s soul had merged with her body, she chose to have a child with Xiao Yan rather than return to the Snake-People Tribe and face pressure to mate with someone else. Their dual cultivation gave Xiao Yan the Python bloodline constitution and strengthened both of them.

• Medusa told Xiao Yan that the Spirit-Merging Pill had healed her soul but merged the Seven-Colored Heaven-Swallowing Python’s soul into her body.
• Xiao Yan suggested that pregnancy might transfer the Python’s soul to their child, and Medusa considered choosing him instead of returning to the tribe.
• Medusa knocked Xiao Yan back and told him to have a child with her, and he carried her to the cave’s bed.
• Xiao Yan and Medusa entered dual cultivation, and after nearly ten days their cultivation rose as Xiao Yan’s physique advanced to the sixth tier.
• Medusa recognized the Python bloodline in Xiao Yan, and he explained that his constitution let him copy another person’s bloodline through intimacy.

Xiao Yan and Medusa reconciled after their intimacy, and he promised to take responsibility for her and help her reach the Battle Emperor realm. He named her Cai Ling and offered the Snake-People Tribe a place in his vast space.

• Xiao Yan insisted that Medusa was now his woman, and after their intimacy she warned him not to use Space Lock on her again.
• Xiao Yan explained the cultivation realms above Dou Zong and promised they could become immortal and stay together.
• Xiao Yan told Medusa that her Heaven-Swallowing Python bloodline could evolve and eventually reach the Battle Emperor realm, exciting her.
• Xiao Yan named Medusa Cai Ling, and she accepted the name.
• Xiao Yan gave Cai Ling a Spatial Anchor and Spatial Permission, then offered to let the Snake-People Tribe migrate into his space.

After returning to the Inner Academy, Xiao Yan comforted Xiao Xun'er and settled into a routine that strengthened his reputation and the Ruler Sect. While browsing the medicinal repository, he collided with a remarkably strong little girl, leaving their first meeting poised to unfold.

• Xiao Yan returned to the Inner Academy after seeing Cai Ling off, and Xiao Xun'er welcomed him before breaking away from a kiss because she feared her clan would endanger him.
• Xiao Yan reassured Xun'er that he understood her concerns and promised that reaching Dou Zong would be enough for him to speak to her father.
• Over the next three months, Xiao Yan trained, refined pills, and spent time with Xun'er while winning one hundred consecutive arena matches and defeating the Inner Academy's top students.
• The Ruler Sect grew to more than a hundred members, and Xiao Yan became well known among students, instructors, and elders.
• While examining medicinal materials in the repository, Xiao Yan collided with a small, purple-haired girl whose strength made him stagger.
