• Chen Wei suspected Yang Jian knew more about what was happening behind the scenes.

Chen Wei took Chen Xiang to Wuzhuang Temple to seek Ginseng Fruit for his son's weakened divine soul and discuss the Revenue Department's embezzled merit with Great Immortal Zhenyuan. Chen Xiang's innocent question about whether Zhenyuan was stronger than his Maternal Great-Uncle left Zhenyuan and Sun Wukong speechless as the visitors approached.

Great Immortal Zhenyuan set three tests for Chen Wei and Chen Xiang to earn a Ginseng Fruit, and the first tested whether Chen Xiang could make one fall naturally. Chen Xiang briefly succeeded through his pure-hearted wish, but lost the fruit and grew angry, leaving Chen Wei trying to stop him from damaging the sacred tree.

• Great Immortal Zhenyuan required Chen Wei and Chen Xiang to pass three tests, beginning with making a Ginseng Fruit fall without a Golden Striker.
• Great Immortal Zhenyuan transported Chen Wei and Chen Xiang to the Ginseng Fruit Tree, where Chen Xiang innocently asked a fruit to fall and caught it.
• Chen Xiang tried to bite the fruit, but it slipped from his hands and burrowed into the earth before returning to its branch.
• Chen Xiang's second request failed, and his Heavenly Eye beam could not shake the tree; Chen Wei warned him not to act rashly.
• Chen Xiang drew a magic axe and threatened to chop down the tree, so Chen Wei restrained him and told him to sit, close his eyes, and steady his mind.

Chen Wei calmed Chen Xiang’s rage beneath the Ginseng Fruit Tree and realized the strange trial was helping his son master his temper and control his newly opened heavenly eye. As Chen Xiang meditated, three ginseng fruits detached from the tree and floated around him, leaving him to ask whether the living-looking fruits could be eaten.

• Chen Wei restrained Chen Xiang from chopping down the Ginseng Fruit Tree and suspected the surroundings were magnifying their emotions as part of Great Immortal Zhenyuan’s test.
• Chen Wei compared the elusive fruit to the immortal cranes in their courtyard and showed Chen Xiang that greed and anger made him act like the monsters he hated.
• Chen Xiang felt ashamed, put away his axe, and calmed his mind while Chen Wei recited the Pure Heart Daoist Scripture.
• Chen Wei realized that the trial was helping Chen Xiang control the dangerous force of his newly opened heavenly eye.
• Three ginseng fruits detached from the tree and circled Chen Xiang, who gently touched one and asked Chen Wei whether they could be eaten.

• Chen Xiang refused to eat the three Ginseng Fruits and said he wanted to raise them as friends, after which they turned into azure streams and entered his body.

• Chen Wei realized the Revenue Department had stopped those benefits and broken an agreement among the Heavenly Court, Spirit Mountain, and the earth immortals.

Chen Wei and Chen Xiang returned to Wuzhuang Temple after Great Immortal Zhenyuan stabilized Chen Xiang’s divine soul, then climbed the mountain path to meet Zhenyuan and Sun Wukong. Chen Wei pledged to investigate the Heavenly Court Revenue Department’s embezzlement and recover Wuzhuang Temple’s losses, while Sun Wukong interrupted Zhenyuan’s account of the old affair.

• During their flight, Chen Xiang asked whether he had been too naughty and resolved to become a good child like his little sister.

Chen Wei and Chen Xiang met Chen Wei’s long-lost father-in-law, Yang Tianyou, and mother-in-law, Fairy Yunhua, in a secluded mountain realm. The reunion turned into a tense invitation to eat Fairy Yunhua’s notorious tangyuan.

• Chen Wei cautiously led Chen Xiang up the mountain after warning him to run if danger arose.
• The smell of tangyuan made Chen Wei and Chen Xiang recognize Yang Chan’s cooking, and a scholar emerged from the pavilion to summon Chen Xiang.

• Fairy Yunhua appeared with a pot of blackened tangyuan and warmly welcomed Chen Wei and Chen Xiang, who told her about Chen Xiaochan.
• Yang Tianyou ate the tangyuan with relish and ordered Chen Wei to try some, while Fairy Yunhua chided him for hesitating.

Chen Wei and Chen Xiang endured Fairy Yunhua’s black tangyuan before Yang Tianyou gave the children their courtesy names. Chen Wei realized that his in-laws’ survival and secluded refuge meant someone had altered the Heavenly Laws, and he agreed to use the names Chen Ping'an and Chen Xile.

• Chen Wei persuaded Fairy Yunhua that Chen Xiang’s shock at the extra tangyuan came from excitement, but she fed him another one herself.
• Chen Wei and Yang Tianyou ate the rest of Fairy Yunhua’s tangyuan, and Yang Tianyou bonded with Chen Xiang afterward.

• Fairy Yunhua offered to speak to her brother at Lingxiao Palace, prompting Chen Wei to realize that Yang Tianyou and Fairy Yunhua had survived through an intervention that altered the Heavenly Laws.

Chen Wei and Chen Xiang visited Yang Tianyou and Fairy Yunhua in their secluded domain, where the grandparents gave the boy jade keepsakes before the family had to part.

• Chen Wei taught Chen Xiang that people should obey the Heavenly Laws, avoid leaving evidence if they broke them, and have strong backing if caught.

After Chen Wei returned from Longevity Mountain, Chen Xiang began studying Daoist scriptures in hopes of freeing his grandparents from the Heavenly Laws. Chen Wei told Yang Chan that her parents were alive and had chosen courtesy names for the twins, while Chen Xiaochan challenged her brother to find a more meaningful way to help them.

• Chen Xiaochan argued that studying Daoist scriptures would not save their grandparents or the Three Realms, leaving Chen Xiang at a loss.

The Great Heavenly Venerable discussed Chen Wei’s meeting with Yang Tianyou’s family and the balance of power in the Heavenly Court with Taibai Jinxing. Meanwhile, the Southern and Big Dipper Star Lords plotted to turn Chen Wei’s investigation of missing merit into a trap that would provoke the gods against him.

• Taibai Jinxing told the Great Heavenly Venerable that Qingquan had met them, and the ruler revealed that Heaven’s will had guided Chen Wei to the hidden domain.
• The Great Heavenly Venerable asked whether he had been too stubborn in the past, and Taibai Jinxing defended his adherence to the Heavenly Laws.

• The South Dipper and Big Dipper Star Lords discussed Chen Wei’s growing influence and agreed that his investigation into the Revenue Department’s merit deficit implicated too many immortals to succeed safely.
• The South Dipper Star Lord proposed encouraging Chen Wei to intensify the investigation so the anger of the gods and Buddhas would eventually drown him.

• After the Censorate took Xu Zhiyan away, Lu Yuan stood stunned and murmured, "Yesterday, gone never to return..."

The God of Wealth grew furious when he learned that Chen Wei’s Discipline Inspection Court had entered the Revenue Department without notifying the Finance Department. The South Dipper and Big Dipper Star Lords urged him to stay calm, but their provocation only drove him to set out for the Censorate to confront Chen Wei.

• The God of Wealth heard that Ma Muzhi had led a squad into the Revenue Department and resolved to demand an explanation from Chen Wei.

• Chen Wei praised the God of Wealth as a supporter of the investigation into Xu Zhiyan, prompting the inspection officials to applaud and chant their thanks.
• Chen Jiugong advised the God of Wealth to accept the welcome and continue the discussion inside, and the God of Wealth descended onto the red carpet.

Chen Wei defused the Five Route Gods of Wealth’s anger over Xu Zhiyan’s arrest by claiming he had acted to protect their reputations, then revealed that Xu Zhiyan’s embezzlement investigation had uncovered a substantial surplus. He began arguing that the surplus should not automatically go to the Heavenly Treasury, leaving the God of Wealth curious about his reasoning.

• Chen Wei served the Five Route Gods of Wealth tea and courteously explained that he had arrested Xu Zhiyan without notifying the Finance Department to protect the elders from suspicion.

• Chen Wei left the mansion to secretly watch over his children, but Taibai Jinxing summoned him to an immortal residence where the patriarchs praised his work.
