Chapter Summaries

After Chu Xingchen disappeared, Cui Hao and the disciples spent centuries searching for Authority and trying to restore the Spirit-Shattering Butterfly Jade. With every piece gathered but Chu Xingchen still absent, Cui Hao completed the Nai River Shuttle and led the others into the Myriad Dao River to bring their master back.

• Cui Hao took charge of the struggling Sect, assigned the disciples to search for Authority, and Li Yingling later led her own search team.
• Li Xingtian left to search alongside Chen Baiqing, and over the next decades they and the others recovered pieces of Authority while the Sect endured and grew.
• Li Xingtian and Chen Baiqing returned after 237 years with the final piece, which restored the Spirit-Shattering Butterfly Jade but did not bring Chu Xingchen back.
• Cui Hao completed the Nai River Shuttle and found Li Xingtian and Chen Baiqing, telling them he had discovered a way to bring Chu Xingchen back.
• Cui Hao activated the complete Spirit-Shattering Butterfly Jade with Myriad Forms and led Chu Xingchen's Personal Disciples and Xie Lingyu aboard the Nai River Shuttle into the Myriad Dao River.

After more than two hundred years, Chu Xingchen’s disciples found him beneath the Great Dao and brought him back to the sect. He awoke among them, and the story ended with the sect restored under a new name.

• Cui Hao guided the Nai River Shuttle through the realm of dao resonance as Li Yingling, Lin Luoyu, and Chen Baiqing spoke about their years without Chu Xingchen.
• Xie Lingyu spotted Chu Xingchen, and the group reached out from the shuttle to seize his clothes despite the Great Dao wearing away their hands.
• Chu Xingchen knocked Li Xingtian back, allowing the others to pull him aboard before the realm’s repelling force swept them away.
• At the sect, Bai Xuanling examined the unconscious Chu Xingchen while his disciples feared he had lost his soul, but he soon opened his eyes and spoke to them.
• Cui Hao named the sect the Master Is a Super Idiot Return to the Star Sect, and the next day a plaque reading Best in the World Returning Star Sect appeared above its gate.

Li Yingling escaped the Marquis's Residence to avoid being married to Minister Wang's halfwit son, but Chu Xingchen found her and offered her a path into cultivation. Two days later, he blasted open the residence's entrance and took her away, and Li Yingling felt her life had finally begun.

• Li Yingling planned to escape the Marquis's Residence rather than become a bargaining chip in a marriage to Minister Wang's halfwit son.
• During a festival, Li Yingling slipped away from her servants, climbed over the high wall, and tried to lose her pursuers in the crowd.
• Chu Xingchen caught Li Yingling and offered to take her into the Black Tortoise Kingdom's Number One Immortal Sect, promising to rescue her in two days.
• Li Yingling agreed to trust Chu Xingchen, though she warned she would make curse dolls of him if he broke his word.
