After seven months of searching for a way to revive Dongfang Minghui, Qian Wanyu and her companions saw Jian Tongyao awaken from the Ice Coffin with no memories. Qian Wanyu began helping her adjust to life as a water dragon and her wife, while Jian Tongyao slowly returned to her side.

Jian Tongyao struggled with her lost memories while Qian Wanyu watched over her, and she tried to help Little White Ball pursue Toothless. Little White Ball followed her advice in a way that baffled Jian Tongyao, while Toothless’s orders to prepare for renewed attacks by Death Spirit Masters left the danger unresolved.

After Qian Wanyu raided a Death Spirit Master base, Jian Tongyao showed signs of recovering her old abilities, and Qian Wanyu returned carrying worm gu that controlled low-level Death Spirit Masters.

• Jian Tongyao woke with affectionate vines wrapped around her arms, drank Qian Wanyu's Digestive Tonic, and set out with her toward the Merfolk.
• Qian Wanyu explained that the infected were living dead, and Jian Tongyao agreed to cultivate so she could defend herself.
• Qian Wanyu performed a Soul Search on a Death Spirit Master and learned that the group had a base near the Merfolk's sea region.
• At the base, Jian Tongyao instinctively used a potion on Little Lecher's vine, hinting that she had retained skills despite losing her memories.
• Qian Wanyu entered the base and returned with worm gu, then one worm burrowed into her hand as Jian Tongyao cried out.

Qian Wanyu tested how the worm gu strengthened her, then forced Jian Tongyao to face the dangers of the sea so she could grow stronger. After Jian Tongyao defeated a giant sea beast and advanced to water-element Spirit Master, the group prepared to continue toward the Merfolk.

• Qian Wanyu announced that they would set off for the Merfolk, while Jian Tongyao worried about turning human during the swim.

Qian Wanyu brought Jian Tongyao to the Merfolk Sea Region, where Jian Tongyao regained her human form but still had no memories of her life with Qian Wanyu. As Jian Tongyao began a new water-element cultivation method, Qian Wanyu asked Wei Junlan to unite the Merfolk with other races against the Death Spirit Masters, and he questioned whether they could succeed.

• Wei Junlan helped Jian Tongyao realize that she was his fellow transmigrator and explained that she had loved Qian Wanyu before losing her memories.
• Qian Wanyu selected a water-element cultivation method for Jian Tongyao, who began practicing it by the shore.
• Qian Wanyu asked Wei Junlan to join forces with the Elf Clan, Beast Tribe, and Dwarffolk against the Death Spirit Masters, and he asked if they could do it with only their forces.

Qian Wanyu and Jian Tongyao trained in the Merfolk waters before setting out through the infected No Return Mountain Range, where Jian Tongyao learned to fight swarms of living-dead beasts. After reaching the mountains’ edge, Qian Wanyu considered raising gu insects to help her advance, despite Qing Mo’s warning that this might empower the madman controlling her Thousand-Thread Silk.

• Qian Wanyu and Jian Tongyao fought more infected beasts as they crossed the mountains, and Qian Wanyu absorbed death aura while seeking a way to advance.
• After leaving the No Return Mountain Range, Jian Tongyao suggested raising gu insects for Qian Wanyu to absorb, and Qian Wanyu agreed to try despite Qing Mo’s warning.

Qian Wanyu trained Jian Tongyao to react to danger while searching for Death Spirit Masters, and the pair fought off a large group of mercenaries. They reunited with Nan Fei and Nan Nan, but left without renewing their old connection, and continued on to train and hunt Death Spirit Masters.

• Qian Wanyu summoned five Death Spirit Masters and began searching their souls, but one exploded after she triggered a restriction, forcing Little Lecher and Ding Ding to pull Jian Tongyao to safety.
• Qian Wanyu had Little Lecher and Ding Ding ambush Jian Tongyao for a week to improve her reactions, then confronted a group wearing a Light-Soul Bell and crushed it to destroy the soul worm inside.

• Qian Wanyu asked Lü Xing to send someone to accompany her as she inspected the Elf Clan's lands for Death Spirit Masters.

Qian Wanyu found no sign of danger while searching the Elf Clan, while Jian Tongyao cultivated for ten days beneath the Tree of Life and approached a breakthrough. After Qian Wanyu's spiritual power entered Jian Tongyao, she began recalling vivid fragments of her past; the chapter ended with the pair joining the elves' battle against dark elves and Qian Wanyu securing a remote place to keep two captives.

• Lü Xing agreed to let Qian Wanyu keep the two Dark Elves in a remote location after she promised to contain them with formations.

• Jian Tongyao fled after their spiritual powers mingled and left them both flustered, while Qing Mo complained about being caught in their dual cultivation.

• Jian Tongyao woke from a dream of being called Qian Minghui and hurried to find Qian Wanyu, ignoring the elves guarding her secluded cultivation area.

• Qian Wanyu brought Jian Tongyao to inspect the worm gu, where they found clusters of insect eggs in two chests and sealed them with death aura.
• Jian Tongyao asked about the Thousand-Thread Silk in Qian Wanyu's body, and Qian Wanyu caught her wrist before she could flee the consequences of her sacrifice.

Jian Tongyao and Qian Wanyu tested whether they could still cultivate together, then Jian Tongyao reunited with Lü Xing and explained her sacrifice and changed circumstances. She remembered that her master had once taken her to a Tree of Life in the Pharmacy Institute Back Mountain.

• While reminiscing about the Royal Academy with Lü Xing, Jian Tongyao remembered seeing a Tree of Life in the deepest part of the Pharmacy Institute Back Mountain.

Jian Tongyao and Lü Xing investigated the Tree of Life, while Jian Tongyao urged Ding Ding to cultivate and search for its master. After weapons disappeared from the Elf Clan's armory, Jian Tongyao suspected Ding Ding had swallowed them, and Qian Wanyu suggested they seek out Little Light by traveling to places with many Death Spirit Masters.

• Jian Tongyao told Lü Xing that the Tree of Life had once given her immense vitality and spiritual power, and Lü Xing tried to communicate with it.

• Jian Tongyao woke beneath the Sacred Tree and told Qian Wanyu she wanted to discuss things later, but Qian Wanyu led her to say farewell to the Elf King.
• Jian Tongyao and Qian Wanyu said goodbye to Mu Sheng and Lü Xing, then departed the Elf Clan with two puppet Elves.

• Qian Wanyu used worm gu and death aura to defeat the attackers, then gave the captured Dark Elves the choice to follow her or die.

Qian Wanyu recruited the Dark Elf Mo Han to lead her group toward a gathering place of Death Spirit Masters, while Jian Tongyao learned how Qian had controlled the elves and why Mo Han resisted her restrictions. After seven days of attacks and losses, they reached the Purple Demon Mountains, where a tree began telling them what had recently happened there.

• A Dark Elf broke free of Qian Wanyu’s restriction and attacked, so she used Soul Search on him and ordered the other elves to bring him along.
• The elf awoke, agreed to follow Qian Wanyu, and revealed his name was Mo Han; she told him to lead them to a gathering place of Death Spirit Masters.
• Qian Wanyu explained to Jian Tongyao that the black worms were secondary worms used as a medium for her restrictions, and that Mo Han had likely overcome hers because of a prior soul-sea restriction or strong mental power.
• Over seven days, several groups attacked the elves, leaving fewer than nine survivors and killing the two puppet elves.
• The group entered the Purple Demon Mountains, where Little Lecher recognized the forest and a large tree began recounting recent events there.

Qian Wanyu took Jian Tongyao back to the cave where their relationship began, and the two reminisced before returning to camp. There, a Lightning Mouse appeared to steal roast meat, and Qian Wanyu suggested asking it to help them.

• Jian Tongyao recognized the Lightning Mouse and remembered that it had once given her eggs when birds chased her.
• Qian Wanyu told Jian Tongyao to ask the Lightning Mouse to do something for them instead of demanding payment.

Qian Wanyu battled the Guardian of the Purple Demon Mountains, then persuaded the Beast Master to return to sleep. Afterward, the Lightning Mouse arrived, apparently seeking a reward for the task Qian Wanyu had given it.

• Jian Tongyao worried that the Lightning Mouse had misunderstood Qian Wanyu's instructions, but Qian Wanyu insisted it would return.
• Qian Wanyu sensed the Guardian of the Purple Demon Mountains approaching and sent Jian Tongyao away with Ding Ding as a stampede swept through the mountains.
