Qian Renxue’s plan to bring Spirit Hall closer to the Heaven Dou Empire called for a woman to join her harem, and Bibi Dong chose Hu Liena for the role.

• Ning Fengzhi told Chen Xin that he did not believe Hu Liena had fallen in love with Xue Qinghe at first sight, citing their differences in status and his existing harem.

Ning Fengzhi suspected that Hu Liena’s proposed marriage alliance might be tied to Bibi Dong’s past heartbreak, and decided to question Xue Qinghe the next day. In Spirit City, Hu Liena concealed her mission by telling Yan she loved Xue Qinghe, leaving Yan devastated as he drank alone that night.

In Heaven Dou City, Tang Yuehua faced mounting obstacles as the Moonlight Pavilion’s fortunes declined under Xue Qinghe’s rule.

Tang Yuehua worried over Moonlight Pavilion’s declining business and the Clear Sky Sect’s refusal to face the changing political landscape, while hoping Tang Hao would return safely. Far away, Tang San mastered the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer beneath a waterfall, and Tang Hao told him it was time to obtain his sixth Soul Ring.

• Tang Yuehua prepared a letter and reduced supply list warning the Clear Sky Sect about the Spirit Hall and Heaven Dou Empire marriage alliance, and urged its elders to abandon their isolation.

• Tang Hao said Cinderella had recently obtained her sixth Soul Ring, then told Tang San that he had reached level sixty and should obtain his sixth Soul Ring.

After reaching level sixty, Tang San followed Tang Hao to a forest where the Blue Silver Grass recognized him as their king and called him deeper inside. As Tang San went to answer the call, Tang Hao told Cinderella he planned to send him to Slaughter City, while Cinderella chose to travel the continent instead.

• Tang Hao told Tang San to leave their valley and obtain his Sixth Soul Ring, so Tang San and Cinderella packed their belongings and departed with him.
• Five days later, Tang Hao brought Tang San and Cinderella to a forest filled with unusually powerful Blue Silver Grass Soul Beasts.
• Tang Hao instructed Tang San to release his Blue Silver Grass and sense the plants, and Tang San heard an ancient voice call him its king.
• Tang San followed the Blue Silver Grass's path into the forest, while Tang Hao assured Cinderella that nothing would happen to him.
• Tang Hao told Cinderella he intended to send Tang San to Slaughter City to pursue Divine Slaughter's Domain.
• Cinderella declined to go to Slaughter City because the domain did not suit her Martial Soul, and told Tang Hao she wanted to travel around the continent.

Tang San stabilized him, but Tang Hao refused further help and led him away; in Heaven Dou City, Hu Liena continued playing her role as Qian Renxue’s favored Imperial Noble Consort.

• Tang San returned from the forest with blue hair and a changed appearance, and Tang Hao embraced him while calling him Ah Yin.

• Tang Hao stopped Tang San from treating him further, recovered enough to stand, and told him to go.
• Qian Renxue had named Hu Liena an Imperial Noble Consort, and Hu Liena maintained their public performance by welcoming Qian Renxue and cooking dishes from Spirit City.

Ning Fengzhi worried that Xue Qinghe’s devotion to Hu Liena threatened the Heaven Dou Empire and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. When court officials’ wives appealed to Eva to intervene, she presented herself as powerless while quietly welcoming their concern.

• Court officials and nobles worried that Xue Qinghe spent most of his time with Hu Liena and feared Spirit Hall’s influence over the emperor.
• Ning Fengzhi read a report stating Xue Qinghe had spent seventeen nights with Hu Liena, three with Eva, and three with his other consorts.
• Ning Fengzhi told Chen Xin he feared he had misjudged Xue Qinghe, and Chen Xin urged him to focus on what to do next.
• The wives of the Minister of Rites and the Chief Censor, along with imperial clan ladies, visited Eva and asked her to persuade Xue Qinghe to stop favoring Hu Liena exclusively.
• Eva said she had tried to counsel Xue Qinghe but could not promise results, leaving the visitors believing she was burdened and neglected.
