Ye Fei searched for hot springs and removed a small one’s insect eggs and core water sphere while Jun Mo reported surviving the cold with layered courtyard walls. Outside Ye Fei’s home, Lin Mu recognized the Phoenix Tree as a Divine Phoenix Tree and left with Yang Cheng, wary of provoking the Cultivation Practitioner who lived there.

• Jun Mo told Ye Fei that he had survived the sudden cold by shrinking his yard and stacking twenty cold-resistant courtyard walls, and Ye Fei advised him to stay safe and cultivate.

• Lin Mu and Yang Cheng stopped outside Ye Fei’s home, where Lin Mu recognized the towering Phoenix Tree as an adult Divine Phoenix Tree and feared the powerful beings associated with it.
• Lin Mu decided not to risk confronting the home’s Cultivation Practitioner and left with Yang Cheng, intending to deal with Lin Che instead.

Ye Fei learned that Lin Mu had visited his home with Yang Cheng, then discovered Lin Mu’s sudden growth in power came from inheriting the origin of a Demon Clan member Feng An had killed. Feng An admitted he had inadvertently helped create a powerful enemy, but Lin Mu still did not know Ye Fei was the person on the Mountain Peak.

• Ye Fei used the Phoenix Tree’s account to learn that Yang Cheng had brought Lin Mu to see the supposed cultivation big shot, but Lin Mu had fled after the tree frightened him.
• Ye Fei learned from the Phoenix Tree that Lin Mu’s combat power was close to Little Phoenix’s and asked Lingyan how a human could become a member of the Demon Clan.

• Ye Fei asked Feng An whether he had killed a Demon Clan member nearby, and Feng An recalled tossing one into his Artifact Refining Furnace as materials.
• Feng An realized that the dead Demon Clan member’s origin had helped Lin Mu become a full demon and rapidly grow stronger, then told Ye Fei he had cultivated an enemy for him.
• Ye Fei noted that Lin Mu still did not know he was the person on the Mountain Peak, while Feng An left to watch events elsewhere.

• Long Heng decided Ye Fei might not be weak after all, since Feng An had not managed to trap him.

After feeding Long Heng, Ye Fei settled in for the evening while the little ones went to cultivate. A blood-red danger marker appeared outside his home, and Ye Fei kept everyone inside, unaware that a large, whiskered head had approached the courtyard wall.

• Ye Fei gave Long Heng crab roe buns and other seafood ingredients, and Long Heng ate before resting to recover his soul.
• Ye Fei served dinner to the little ones, who then went to cultivate while Little Phoenix showed interest in going outside.
• Ye Fei saw an enormous red danger marker beyond the gate and told Little Phoenix and the Flame Tree Leaf to stay inside and leave the observer alone.
• Ye Fei resumed cultivating as the danger marker lingered outside, and a large, whiskered head approached the wall without triggering the protective alarm.

Ye Fei learned that Feng An had dealt with the True Dragon that approached Little Phoenix and given its dragon pearl to Long Heng. Long Heng evolved into the Dragon Race, while Ye Fei realized Feng An had lied about the power of his dragon form.

• Ye Fei soothed Little Phoenix after the Phoenix Tree showed that a True Dragon had approached the courtyard, and learned that Feng An's true form was far larger than the snake he had seen.
• Ye Fei decided to stop wondering about Feng An's size and planned to eat breakfast before searching for a hot spring.
• Long Heng messaged Ye Fei that Feng An had given him a gift, and Ye Fei guessed it was the True Dragon's pearl.
• Ye Fei saw that absorbing the dragon pearl had advanced Long Heng from the Pseudo-Dragon Race to the Dragon Race and repaired his Dragon Soul.

• Jun Mo complained that Big Dog had stomped and tried to bury him, so Ye Fei picked up his bundles and took him home.

• Ye Fei gave Jun Mo an Iron Axe and warned that he would eventually have to chop Phoenix Perch.

Jun Mo arrived on Snow Mountain after a strange elemental storm swept him and his companions away from Iceberg. Ye Fei agreed to shelter Lingxu while Jun Mo built a home nearby and warned him about local hazards and players.

• Jun Mo tried to chop the Phoenix Tree, but it showered him with sparks until Ye Fei intervened and let him go eat.
• Jun Mo told Ye Fei that a storm of wind, fire, lightning, and water had destroyed his courtyard and carried him and his companions to Snow Mountain.

After Feng An teased Jun Mo about his unusual way of feeding his cat and fish, he encouraged him to settle in the Snow Mountain area, leaving the animals wary of Feng An’s interest in their household.

• Ye Fei told Jun Mo that players could build separate Homesteads and walk away from relatives, while Jun Mo said people might stay tangled together because of their own moral restrictions.
• Feng An arrived and asked Ye Fei why Lin Che’s maternal grandfather had slapped his daughter shortly before dying.
• Ye Fei offered several possible reasons, then Feng An described finding Lin Che feeding his koi while soaking in the water.
• Feng An noticed Jun Mo hiding beneath the table and learned that he raised a cat and a fish using a similar feeding method.
• Feng An encouraged Jun Mo to settle in the Snow Mountain area and ask Ye Fei for advice, while the cat and jiaoren shivered at Feng An’s attention.

Ye Fei helped Jun Mo build a house for Lingxiao, who revealed through its reactions that the cramped home had been bothering it. Ye Fei mentioned that the Phoenix Tree had also endured a lack of space, leaving Lingxiao comforted that it was not the only one that had put up with so much.

• Ye Fei led Jun Mo away from his home and reassured him that Feng An was dangerous only if Jun Mo looked at him or bothered him.

• Jun Mo built a Two-Story Pavilion and asked Ye Fei what he thought of it.
• Ye Fei noticed that Lingxiao avoided the house, and Jun Mo realized the interior might be too cramped for his cat.
• Jun Mo brought Lingxiao upstairs to help redesign the interior, while Ye Fei watched as Lingxiao endured his questions and handling.
• Ye Fei told Jun Mo that the Phoenix Tree had once lacked room to grow, and Lingxiao perked up at the thought that another of Ye Fei’s companions had endured a similar problem.

Ye Fei searched the snowy mountains with his companions for hot springs and demon insect eggs, destroying the eggs they found. After locating a hot spring in the direction the ants had attacked from, he sent Fire Dance to scout ahead and waited for the phoenix to return.

• Jun Mo and Big Cat headed out to search near their new home while Ye Fei went in another direction with his companions.
• Ye Fei found a hot spring and had Little Phoenix burn away the demon insect eggs there.
• Ye Fei considered investigating the direction the ants had come from and allowed Fire Dance to scout ahead, warning the phoenix not to fly too far.
• Little Fox asked Ye Fei whether he preferred her small or large form, and he told her to choose whichever form suited her best.
• Fire Dance returned from scouting and landed on Ye Fei's shoulder.
