They headed back toward the Hope Convoy with the Qipao Weird, whose remark about Luo Fan’s master left him wondering what secret she knew about the Weird Bride.

• The Qipao Weird praised the group’s teamwork and agreed that they had a chance of hunting a fifth-tier rule-type Weird.

• The Qipao Weird told Luo Fan that his master used to be bigger than her, leaving him wondering what she knew about the Weird Bride’s past.

Luo Fan learned how rule-type Weirds became more humanlike as their mastery of rules increased, including that rule sanction-level Weirds were impossible to distinguish from ordinary people. After returning to the Hope Convoy with the Qipao Weird, he left Han Shanzhong and the others alarmed by her presence and speech.

• The Qipao Weird explained that rule mastery made Weirds resemble humans, with differences varying by features such as height, eyes, skin, hair, and beastlike traits.

Luo Fan used the Golden Weird Mirror to learn the Swordsman Weird’s Blind Man’s Buff rules and shared them with the Hope Convoy. As the group began considering how to challenge the fifth-tier Weird, Luo Fan received a check-in notification.

• Luo Fan introduced the Qipao Weird to Han Shanzhong and the others, explaining that she had agreed to help fight the Swordsman Weird in exchange for information about his master.
• The Qipao Weird asked to leave, but Luo Fan told her to wait while he returned to his RV with the Golden Weird Mirror and a fifth-tier weird crystal.
• Luo Fan paid the mirror with the fifth-tier crystal and three fourth-tier crystals to reveal the Swordsman Weird’s rule ability, Blind Man’s Buff.
• Luo Fan reasoned that challenging the Swordsman Weird alone would be too risky because it could use its fifth-tier strength instead of activating its rule game.
• Luo Fan showed the revealed rules to the convoy, and the Qipao Weird was shocked by his ability to obtain detailed information about a Rule-Type Weird.
• A check-in notification appeared in Luo Fan’s vision.

After reaching Lv33, Luo Fan received 30,000 yuan in daily check-in funds and discussed how to hunt the Swordsman Weird. Niu Dagang proposed using an even-numbered group to prevent its rules game from activating, but the team settled on Luo Fan and the Qipao Weird, who then asked him to explain his rule-type skills.

• Luo Fan noticed his check-in funds had increased to 30,000 yuan and considered using his income to upgrade uncanny artifacts.
• Luo Fan told the Hope Convoy that a small team should hunt the Swordsman Weird to limit the danger of its rules ability.
• Niu Dagang suggested sending an even number of sequence users so the Swordsman Weird could not activate its rules game, and the convoy discussed the risks of someone being killed first.
• Luo Fan and the convoy chose Luo Fan and the Qipao Weird to hunt the Swordsman Weird because they could bypass its vision-sealing power.
• The Qipao Weird proposed distracting the Swordsman Weird while Luo Fan dealt damage, then asked him to explain his rule-type skills.

Luo Fan and the Qipao Weird rode toward the Swordsman Weird while discussing her Time Reversal ability and his skills. As they approached their destination, two figures blocked the road and ordered them to stop.

• The Qipao Weird explained that her Time Reversal required a target’s voluntary cooperation and that her incomplete rule mastery could only weaken an opposing rule ability.
• Luo Fan agreed to reveal his skills so he and the Qipao Weird could coordinate their attack on the Swordsman Weird.
• The Qipao Weird was surprised that Luo Fan had eight skills despite being only Lv33, and Luo Fan began describing them.
• Two figures rushed out from the roadside, blocked Luo Fan and the Qipao Weird, and shouted that no one could pass.

Luo Fan and the Qipao Weird passed two Flame Sun Base Sequence Users who tried to keep them away from a rule-type Weird, which Luo Fan suspected was the injured Swordsman Weird. He hurried onward to find a large Flame Sun Base force blocking the road ahead.

• Two Flame Sun Base Sequence Users warned Luo Fan that a rule-type Weird lay ahead and ordered him to turn back.
• The Qipao Weird revealed the two men’s Sequence Levels and threatened to kill them, prompting them to recognize her as a rule-type Weird and move aside.
• Luo Fan refused to kill the men and continued toward the Swordsman Weird with the Qipao Weird.
• The two Sequence Users reported that another rule-type Weird was heading toward the area.
• Luo Fan suspected Flame Sun Base wanted the Swordsman Weird’s authority over its Weird Domain and worried their large force would strengthen the Weird’s rules.
• Luo Fan reached the area and saw a large crowd prepared to confront him and the Qipao Weird.

Luo Fan and the Qipao Weird encountered nine Flame Sun Base Sequence Users preparing to hunt the Swordsman Weird, but Luo Fan refused to join them when their leader withheld how they planned to handle its rules. He left, then used Mimicry to return as a harmless little bird and spy on their strategy before heading toward the Swordsman Weird.

• Luo Fan and the Qipao Weird met Flame Sun Base's nine-person lineup, led by a Lv41 fourth-tier Sequence User, and learned they planned to hunt the Swordsman Weird.

• Luo Fan declined the offer and rode away with the Qipao Weird rather than risk his life in the hunt.
• Luo Fan transformed into an ordinary little bird with Mimicry and returned to spy on the Flame Sun Base Sequence Users.
• Luo Fan overheard their battle strategy, then flew toward the Swordsman Weird's location.

Luo Fan entered the Swordsman Weird’s snowy mountain domain disguised as a bird and discovered that Flame Sun Base’s Sequence Users could make the Weird activate its vision-sealing power from a distance. The chapter left Luo Fan wondering if they had trapped the Swordsman Weird in an illusion, just as one of them noticed him and attacked.

• Luo Fan flew into the Swordsman Weird’s open domain and watched the Weird meditate beside its cabin on a snowy mountain.

• Luo Fan suspected Flame Sun Base had trapped the Swordsman Weird in an illusion from a distance, but a Sequence User carrying a bone staff spotted him and sent a wind blade toward him.

• A Flame Sun Base Sequence User recognized Luo Fan as the bird he had seen before and revealed that he had attacked to test his suspicion.
• The man in charge ordered the nine Sequence Users to kill Luo Fan, so Luo Fan struck the Swordsman Weird with Pear Blossom Needle Storm and applied thirty marks.

• One Sequence User failed to dodge the Sword Qi and was killed, while Luo Fan retreated to avoid being caught in the fight.
• The Swordsman Weird activated his rule ability, bringing Luo Fan back to the summit with the eight surviving Sequence Users and sealing them inside a hundred-square-meter area.

Luo Fan and the Flame Sun Base Sequence Users were trapped in the Swordsman Weird’s hundred-square-meter rule game, where he hunted them by sound despite being unable to see. After the Weird caught three people and cornered two more, Luo Fan threw a Weird Crystal into an empty spot, leaving the others stunned that he could access it while their Uncanny Artifacts and Mustard Seed Bags were sealed.

• The Swordsman Weird sealed Luo Fan and the Flame Sun Base Sequence Users inside a hundred-square-meter area, and one Sequence User blamed Luo Fan for ruining their plan.
• The Swordsman Weird caught a Sequence User who had shouted, making him vanish, and the others realized that anyone he caught disappeared.
• Luo Fan used Spirit Void Step to evade the Swordsman Weird and worked out how the Weird anticipated their movements and cut off escape routes.
• The Swordsman Weird caught two more Sequence Users, leaving Luo Fan fearing that he would soon win the game by catching five people.
• When the Swordsman Weird cornered two more Sequence Users, Luo Fan threw a Weird Crystal into an empty spot, astonishing the others because their storage items were sealed.

Luo Fan repeatedly threw Weird Crystals to confuse the Swordsman Weird and keep the remaining Sequence Users from being caught. As the game continued and the Swordsman Weird began ignoring the noises, Luo Fan faced a final desperate gamble to prevent the next capture.

• The Swordsman Weird mistook Luo Fan's first thrown Weird Crystal for a sound made by a player, while Luo Fan used Spirit Void Step to evade him and protect the others.
• Luo Fan repeatedly tossed Weird Crystals whenever the Swordsman Weird was about to catch someone, but the Weird eventually caught a fourth Sequence User.
• Luo Fan changed tactics and scattered Weird Crystals at random, confusing the Swordsman Weird and preventing him from catching anyone for about ten minutes.
• Luo Fan realized that the Swordsman Weird was forcing another Sequence User into an inescapable position and ignoring the thrown crystals, so he prepared to take a gamble.

Luo Fan tricked the Swordsman Weird into opening his eyes, causing the rules to kill it, then stole its corpse. He fled from the Flame Sun Base Sequence Users, but one transformed into a falcon and pursued him as the others gave chase.

• Luo Fan detonated thirty stacks of marks, severely injuring the Swordsman Weird and making it open its eyes.
• The Swordsman Weird was killed by its own rules, and Luo Fan stored its corpse before the Flame Sun Base Sequence Users could react.

• Luo Fan activated Jet Propulsion and flew toward the Weird Domain's entrance, but a Third-Tier Sequence User transformed into a falcon and pursued him.
• The remaining Flame Sun Base Sequence Users hurried after Luo Fan, determined to recover the Swordsman Weird's corpse.

Luo Fan was overwhelmed by Flame Sun Base’s Sequence Users and called for help from the Qipao Weird and Nightmare Nekomata. The Qipao Weird intervened and erased the Fourth-Tier Sequence User, leaving the three survivors terrified of her Rule Mastery.

• Luo Fan fought a falcon-transformed Sequence User while two Spell Sequence users attacked him, and lightning knocked him from the sky.

• The Qipao Weird used her Rule Power to reverse the Fourth-Tier Sequence User’s age until he vanished, and the remaining three recognized her as a Weird at the Rule Mastery level.

Luo Fan killed the remaining Flame Sun Base Sequence Users and looted their Mustard Seed Bags, including a large bronze mirror. When the Qipao Weird demanded to know Xiaodie's purpose, Luo Fan claimed the Red Veil was a betrothal gift that would eventually require him to marry into Xiaodie's Weird Nest.

• Luo Fan shot and killed the three surviving Sequence Users from Flame Sun Base, then collected four Mustard Seed Bags from the fallen.
• Luo Fan found that the bags held far more than ordinary ones and discovered a bronze mirror that might trap people in an illusion realm.
• The Qipao Weird reminded Luo Fan that he had promised to explain Xiaodie's purpose for giving him the Red Veil.
• Luo Fan told the Qipao Weird that Xiaodie wanted to marry him and that the Red Veil would save him from danger until it ran out, after which he would have to marry into her household.

The Qipao Weird believed Luo Fan’s explanation about Xiaodie’s red veil and betrothal arrangement, then proposed marrying him to outdo her sister and benefit her cultivation. Luo Fan refused and threatened to summon Xiaodie if the Qipao Weird tried to force herself on him, leaving her shocked that he would spend a life-saving chance to resist her.

• The Qipao Weird examined Xiaodie’s red veil and accepted Luo Fan’s explanation that it was a betrothal gift tied to a promise to marry into Xiaodie’s family.

• The Qipao Weird criticized Xiaodie and proposed that Luo Fan marry her instead, hoping to compete with her sister and improve her cultivation.
• Luo Fan refused, saying humans and Weirds followed different paths.
• The Qipao Weird threatened to force herself on Luo Fan, and he raised the red veil, warning that he would summon Xiaodie.
• The Qipao Weird was stunned that Luo Fan would use a chance to save his life just to resist her.
