The clan concealed Yu Tianming and Yu Tiansheng, while Di Tian’s group weighed whether to strike at human geniuses if their existence was exposed.

After Tang San also defeated Wang Sheng, he wondered whether Ye Wuhen had twin martial souls and left for lunch; meanwhile, a bored little girl in the Star Dou Great Forest wanted to go out and play.

Xiao Wu stayed at the Lake of Life while the Celestial Screen continued displaying information, then showed Yu Tianming bringing Yu Luomian to ask Yu Tiansheng whether he would accept adoption. Yu Tiansheng mistook Yu Luomian’s explanation for an attempt to claim him as a son—or even a grandson.
