The shocked students rush off to have the stones authenticated, leaving Li alone in the dorm. He cannot quite remember what he has forgotten. Meanwhile, Ouyang Xuanxuan waits for Li to call and worries he may be on a date with Mo. In the Underworld, Black and White Impermanence show off an armed helicopter Li gave them, drawing envious attention and a request from Ox Head and Horse Face to try it.

In the Underworld, Black and White Impermanence boast about Li’s favor, while Ox Head and Horse Face flatter them and try to get a turn in the helicopter.
• Themes: The chapter uses comic misunderstandings to show how appearances can conceal great value, while highlighting friendship and generosity through Li’s gifts. It also pokes fun at vanity, envy, and the way sudden wealth—or flashy possessions—can change people’s behavior.

• Plot and events: Ox Head, Horse Face, and other underworld officials crowd into Black and White Impermanence’s armed helicopter for a test flight. Horse Face accidentally shuts off the rotor, causing a crash, then later fires the helicopter’s missiles at Black and White’s mansion, destroying it.

They find Ghost King, Cui Jue, Night Patrol God, and others already there for the same reason.
• Character developments and interactions: Horse Face’s curiosity and clumsiness cause escalating damage, while Ox Head helps him escape and proposes seeking Li Yichen’s help.

• Significant themes: The chapter mixes comedy with the contrast between ancient supernatural beings and modern technology. It also emphasizes the transactional nature of Li Yichen’s dealings: extraordinary goods can be obtained, but only through trade.
• Key revelation: Cui Jue offers Li Yichen an Ability Pearl, which contains skills extracted from a deceased person before they drink Meng Po Soup and lose their former abilities. Absorbing one can grant an ordinary person those skills. Li Yichen is astonished by its potential.
