After transmigrating into Xiao Yun, Xiao Zhan’s son, he was falsely accused of stealing a Dou Technique before Xun Er cleared his name with an alibi. Xiao Yun then activated the Attribute Copy System and copied Xiao Zhan’s Five-Star Da Dou Shi strength, leaving him vastly stronger than before.

After Xun Er defended him and Xiao Ning watched them with jealousy, Xiao Yun drew a Sixth-Rank Alchemist Token and gained Pill King Gu He's alchemy knowledge. He planned to use pills to increase his strength but realized he lacked money and ingredients, so he considered asking Xun Er for help.

Xiao Yun visited the Mittel Auction House to sell a Fifth-Rank Qingxuan Pill and revealed to Ya Fei that he had refined it himself. Ya Fei arranged for it to headline an auction in three days, while Xiao Yun's mission remained unfinished until the sale.

• Xiao Yun dismissed Jia Lie Ao's threat that his father was a Da Dou Shi and sat down to wait for the clan to arrive.
• News of the fight spread through the marketplace and across Wu Tan City, reaching the three great clans.

• Jia Lie Bi learned that Xiao Yun had broken Jia Lie Ao’s arm and leg, then led five or six Dou Shi to the marketplace.
• Xiao Yun slapped Jia Lie Ao and warned him to stop cursing, leaving Jia Lie Ao to wait for his father in silence.
• Jia Lie Bi demanded an explanation and ordered his Dou Shi to cripple Xiao Yun.
• Xiao Yun killed all five Dou Shi in moments with a palm strike and streams of Dou Qi.
• Jia Lie Bi asked Xiao Yun’s true strength and trembled as he suspected Xiao Yun was a Da Dou Shi or stronger.

After Xiao Yun broke Jia Lie Ao’s arms and legs, the Xiao Clan elders debated how to respond to Jia Lie Bi’s threat. Xiao Zhan hurried to the marketplace to protect his son and arrived to find a corpse lying before him.

• Xiao Zhan rebuked the Second Elder and Third Elder for criticizing Xiao Yun, and they realized the First Elder had understood Xiao Yun’s strength.

After Xiao Yun killed Jia Lie Bi, the Xiao Clan learned that Xiao Yun had reached Dou Wang strength and began praising him. Xiao Zhan then received word that Nalan Yanran would visit the next day, and Xiao Yun understood she was coming to annul her engagement with Xiao Yan.

• Guards told the First Elder that Xiao Yun had killed Jia Lie Bi, Jia Lie Ao, and several Jia Lie Clan Dou Shi, leaving the clan leaderless.

• A guard delivered a letter from the Misty Cloud Sect, and Xiao Zhan announced that Nalan Yanran would visit the Xiao Clan the next day.
• Xiao Yun recognized that Nalan Yanran was coming to annul her engagement with Xiao Yan and decided that neither she nor the Misty Cloud Sect concerned him.

Nalan Yanran arrived at the Xiao Clan to dissolve her engagement to Xiao Yan, offering a Qi Gathering Powder as compensation. Xiao Yun challenged her offer, and Ge Ye sensed something dangerous about him as tensions rose in the hall.

• Xiao Yan overheard Xiao Clan disciples mock him and speculate that Nalan Yanran had come to break off their engagement.

• Xiao Yun dismissed the pill as inadequate compensation, and Nalan Yanran challenged his ability to produce anything better.
• Ge Ye stopped Nalan Yanran from retorting after sensing an unreadable, faintly dangerous aura from Xiao Yun.

Nalan Yanran demanded that Xiao Yan sign the agreement ending their engagement, but the Xiao Clan elders refused. When she challenged Xiao Yun and let him attack first, he revealed overwhelming strength and left her terrified, while Ge Ye realized they might not be leaving soon.

• Xiao Yun stopped his palm just short of Nalan Yanran's face, though its force shattered the furniture behind her.
• Nalan Yanran asked Xiao Yun about his true strength, and Ge Ye warned her that they might not leave soon.

Xiao Yun revealed that he was a Dou Wang when Nalan Yanran attacked him, leaving her terrified and Ge Ye begging for mercy. After warning the Misty Cloud Sect not to threaten the Xiao Clan, Xiao Yun let them discuss the marriage contract with Xiao Yan.

• Xiao Yun withdrew his aura and told Ge Ye to discuss the marriage contract with Xiao Yan, warning him not to threaten the Xiao Clan.

After Nalan Yanran left the Xiao Clan, Xiao Yan vowed to become strong enough to make her regret breaking off the engagement. Xiao Yun then copied Yun Yun’s Three-Star Dou Emperor strength, leaving him far more powerful than Nalan Yanran expected.

• As Xiao Yun and Xun Er left the main hall, the system announced that he had completed a quest for humiliating Nalan Yanran and defending the Xiao Clan’s honor.
• Xiao Yun used his trait-copying opportunity and gained Yun Yun’s Three-Star Dou Emperor strength.
