Chapter Summaries

Luo Fan and the Hope Convoy decided to move the Weird Domain’s entrance to Lin City, which Luo Fan believed had fewer Weirds than other cities. He then asked the Weird Bride whether she could stay in the independent space permanently, leaving her answer unresolved.

• Luo Fan summoned the convoy’s core members to discuss relocating the Weird Domain, while Zhang Qian stayed behind to prepare Spirit Liquid.
• Han Shanzhong suggested anchoring the entrance in an uninhabited town, and the group agreed that a town could offer a safe place to retreat during a Weird Tide.
• The group rejected Yi City because it still had many Weirds and Jiangkou Town because its recent events would attract attention.
• Luo Fan proposed Lin City, explaining that he had previously killed its only Rule-Type Weird, and the others supported the choice.
• Luo Fan told the Weird Bride to move the entrance to Lin City, then asked whether she could live in the Weird Domain from then on.

Luo Fan and the Weird Bride agreed that she could live openly in the Weird Domain if its residents recognized her authority, and the Hope Convoy’s leaders accepted the arrangement. After Guangtou Yong reassured the Stone Convoy’s Sequence Users, the Weird Bride moved the completed Weird Domain into Lin City.

• The Weird Bride explained that she could remain in the Weird Domain if its humans were nominally under her control, and Luo Fan agreed to leave her in charge while he handled matters outside.
• Niu Dagang, Han Shanzhong, Zhang Qian, and the other Hope Convoy leaders accepted the Weird Bride as their nominal leader, and she made the snowy mountaintop cabin her residence.
• The Stone Convoy’s survivors grew afraid when the Weird Bride’s identity became public, so Luo Fan brought Guangtou Yong to meet her and explained that she would protect everyone who behaved themselves.
• Guangtou Yong told the Stone Convoy’s Sequence Users that the Weird Domain offered them a stable place to live, and most accepted staying despite their unease.
• After construction was completed, the Weird Bride moved the Weird Domain to Lin City and placed its entrance and exit in the city center.

Luo Fan and his companions returned to Lin City and found it strangely empty of both Weird and Fierce Beasts, prompting them to suspect the city held a secret. After Luo Fan exhausted himself searching the city, Han Shanzhong suggested asking the Weird Bride for an explanation, but the group still needed to decide who would approach her.

• Luo Fan left the Weird Domain with Niu Dagang and the others and scanned the area around Lin City, detecting no Weird.
• Han Shanzhong reminded Luo Fan that Lin City had also been empty the first time they visited, and Luo Fan realized a rule-type Weird could not explain the absence.
• Luo Fan had Ai Si drive him through the city while he scanned it, but found no Weird, Fierce Beasts, or clues before the Far-Sensing Wave Hat's side effect forced him to sleep.
• Niu Dagang and the others turned to Han Shanzhong for direction while Luo Fan slept, and Han Shanzhong concluded Lin City was safe for the moment.
• Han Shanzhong proposed asking the Weird Bride why Weird and Fierce Beasts avoided Lin City, then asked who would speak to her while Luo Fan was absent.

After waking from a long recovery sleep, Luo Fan replenished supplies for the two bases and upgraded An Xiaoran’s artifacts and his Invisibility Cloak. He returned to the Weird Domain and headed to the Weird Bride’s pavilion, where he began teasing a maid named Xing'er.

• Luo Fan woke after using the Far-Sensing Wave Hat, replied to messages from the Aerospace Base and Greenedge Base, and bought two days’ worth of vegetables.
• Luo Fan upgraded An Xiaoran’s Mental Power Headband, Amplification Tome, and Healing Bracelet to Second Tier.
• Luo Fan upgraded his Invisibility Cloak and appraised it, learning that its movement-speed penalty while invisible had fallen to 20%.
• Luo Fan found the Weird Domain’s entrance and exit closed and saw that the Weird Bride’s pavilion had been built on the snowy summit.
• Luo Fan met a maid named Xing'er at the pavilion and leaned in to ask for a kiss.

Luo Fan and the Weird Bride investigated why no Weird or Fierce Beasts had gathered in Lin City and discussed materials that attract or repel Weird. They suspected Innate Yang Steel might be hidden there, and the chapter ended as they entered the city to let the Weird Bride sense for it.

• Luo Fan spoke with the Weird Bride about Lin City, explaining that his psychic scan had found no Weird or Fierce Beasts there.
• The Weird Bride guessed that something in Lin City repelled or endangered Weird and offered to locate it herself.

• Luo Fan and the Weird Bride agreed that Innate Yang Steel might explain Lin City's unusual emptiness and set out to investigate.
• Luo Fan and the Weird Bride entered Lin City, and Luo Fan waited to see whether she could sense Innate Yang Steel.

Luo Fan and the Weird Bride investigated why Lin City had no Weirds or Fierce Beasts, but found no explanation before a scavenging convoy arrived. After the convoy discovered them, Luo Fan introduced the Weird Bride as a Sequence User in the deceptive enchantress sequence, and they began speaking with the convoy.

• The Weird Bride sensed no Innate Yang Steel or other force that would explain why Weirds and Fierce Beasts avoided Lin City.
• Luo Fan and the Weird Bride watched a four-vehicle convoy approach and saw one Sequence User send thousands of insects into the city to scout.
• The insect-controlling Sequence User spotted Luo Fan and the Weird Bride, and Luo Fan came down from the rooftop to meet the convoy.
• Luo Fan told the wary Sequence Users that the Weird Bride was his companion and her appearance came from a deceptive enchantress sequence skill.
• The convoy accepted Luo Fan's explanation, and he answered that they were searching Lin City for supplies before asking the leader about his name and convoy.

Luo Fan and the Weird Bride watched the Sacred Beetle Convoy gather supplies in Lin City, then joined forces with them when several powerful Weird attacked. After the Weird fled at dawn, the convoy accepted the pair, and the Weird Bride’s survival in sunlight convinced them she was not a Weird.

• Lin Shangtian introduced the Sacred Beetle Convoy, whose members found no Weird or Fierce Beasts while searching Lin City for supplies.
• Luo Fan told the Weird Bride they would watch the convoy and try to join it if danger struck, suspecting the city’s abundant supplies meant something was wrong.
• As the convoy prepared to leave, several humanoid Weird attacked Luo Fan and the Weird Bride, and Lin Shangtian’s group intervened with their abilities.
• The Weird retreated as dawn approached, and Luo Fan asked to travel with the convoy; Lin Shangtian and the others agreed.
• The convoy set off after sunrise, and its members saw that the Weird Bride could stand in sunlight without harm.

Luo Fan realized that the Sacred Beetle Convoy was trapped in an illusion that made night look like day, and he used his Bewitching Dream Weird Mirror and Weird Gun to defeat two illusory beasts. A winged Nightmare Nekomata then appeared and fixed its wary, ferocious gaze on him.

• The Weird Bride told Luo Fan that the apparent sunlight was not real, and he realized the convoy had fallen into an illusion realm.
• Luo Fan warned the Sacred Beetle Convoy to stop, but an enormous eagle-like beast attacked and shrugged off their Sequence skills.
• Luo Fan reflected the giant bird with his Bewitching Dream Weird Mirror, then killed it with Triple Shot, revealing it was an illusion.
• A pitch-black tiger lunged toward Luo Fan's Petrification Bait, and he killed it with another Triple Shot before it could reach the bait.
• A snow-white Nightmare Nekomata with a third eye and wings appeared and stared at Luo Fan.

Luo Fan defeated a Pink Dream Weird Moth that had trapped Lin City in an illusion, uncovering how it had used the city’s supplies to lure prey. After the Sacred Beetle Convoy departed, Luo Fan told the Weird Bride he remembered a place that might contain Innate Yin Jade.

• Luo Fan trapped the fourth-tier Nightmare Nekomata with a Sealing Trap and killed it, shattering the illusion that had made dawn appear to come.
• The Weird Bride identified the illusion’s creator as a Pink Dream Weird Moth, and Luo Fan shot the fleeing moth and collected its Weird Crystal and corpse.
• Luo Fan revealed his real name to Lin Shangtian and explained that the moth had cleared Lin City of other creatures and used its supplies to lure prey.
• The Sacred Beetle Convoy departed in the real dawn, and Luo Fan and the Weird Bride headed toward Lin City.
• Luo Fan told the Weird Bride he remembered a place where they might find Innate Yin Jade.

Luo Fan suspected that Innate Yin Jade had drawn the Weird to the remote Underground Research Institute, so he and the Weird Bride flew there to investigate. They reached the underground facility, and Luo Fan asked whether she could sense the jade.

• Luo Fan explained that the Weird gathered at the Underground Research Institute might have been attracted by Innate Yin Jade, and the Weird Bride agreed they should investigate.
• The Weird Bride insisted they leave immediately rather than wait for night, and Luo Fan took a helicopter without telling Niu Dagang or the others.
• On the way, a bird Fierce Beast attacked the helicopter, but the Weird Bride immobilized it with a glare and sent it falling from the sky.
• After about two hours, Luo Fan and the Weird Bride landed at the Research Base and entered its underground facility.
• Luo Fan asked the Weird Bride whether she could sense the pull of Innate Yin Jade.

Luo Fan followed the Weird Bride through the Underground Research Institute as she sensed the Innate Yin Jade, while the gathered Weird bowed before her. At the lowest level, she located the jade and raised its blue-glowing, tendril-wrapped box from beneath the floor.

• The Weird Bride sensed her surroundings and led Luo Fan down the stairs into the dark Underground Research Institute.
• First- and second-tier Weird appeared in large numbers, but they prostrated themselves before the Weird Bride as Luo Fan followed behind her with a flashlight.
• As they descended, third- and fourth-tier Weird joined the crowd, and Luo Fan spotted a fifth-tier Weird kneeling at the lowest level.
• The Weird Bride stopped to sense something, then entered a hall and split open the floor with a raised hand.
• A box entwined with tendrils and glowing blue rose from underground and landed in the Weird Bride's hand.

Luo Fan and the Weird Bride discovered that the Innate Yin Jade was incomplete but could help her increase her chances of becoming a Rule Sanction by about twenty percent. The Weird Bride planned to cultivate it by openly attracting more Weird, but Luo Fan worried that this approach might be inappropriate.

• The Weird Bride opened the treasure box and revealed an unfinished piece of Innate Yin Jade that drew the Weird in the institute into cries of excitement.
• The Weird Bride explained that the jade needed to absorb more Weird aura and that cultivating it could raise her chances of becoming a Rule Sanction by about twenty percentage points.
• The Weird Bride said cultivating the jade would keep her from guarding the Weird Domain, and Luo Fan encouraged her to pursue the opportunity.
• The Weird Bride proposed bringing the jade out and openly attracting enough Weird to finish nourishing it, but Luo Fan voiced concerns about her plan.

Luo Fan warned the Weird Bride that displaying the Innate Yin Jade could attract powerful rivals, but she confidently insisted she could protect it and chose to cultivate it. They ruled out Lin City as her gathering place to keep their relationship secret, and after Luo Fan left, the Weird Bride began considering where to build a Weird city.

• Luo Fan explained that displaying the Innate Yin Jade could attract powerful Weird and invite revenge from whoever had hidden it, but the Weird Bride said she could handle the danger and claimed the jade as hers.
• The Weird Bride proposed using Lin City to gather Weird and create a defensive line, but Luo Fan pointed out that their secret relationship would be exposed there.
• Luo Fan reassured the reluctant Weird Bride that he could visit her in disguise using his Mimicry skill, and they discussed the plan before parting.
• Luo Fan left the Underground Research Institute by helicopter and headed back toward Lin City while the Weird Bride searched for a suitable place to form a Weird city.
• The Weird Bride came up with an idea for where to move.

The Weird Bride carried the Jade Embryo of Innate Yin Jade, drawing an ever-growing host of Weirds as she traveled. A convoy witnessed her command a powerful bone dragon and fled after seeing more than a thousand Weirds follow her.

• The Weird Bride walked with the Jade Embryo of Innate Yin Jade, attracting Weirds until her procession included high-tier Weirds.
• A late-fourth-tier white bone giant dragon attacked a convoy, but turned away when it sensed the procession.
• The convoy captain ordered Aixi to use her eagle spirit to scout the direction the dragon had flown.
• The Weird Bride summoned the bone dragon to her, and it submitted before carrying her as a mount.
• Aixi's eagle spirit revealed the Weird Bride leading more than a thousand Weirds, with additional Weirds joining from all directions.
• The convoy's surviving Sequence Users saw the procession on the screen and fled in terror.

The Weird Bride led thousands of Weird to Yi City to cultivate the Innate Yin Jade, drawing widespread attention on the Sequence User Forum. Luo Fan learned where she had settled and warned her to stay alert as their migration became public knowledge.

• The Weird Bride arrived in Yi City with thousands of Weird and sent them to hide from the sunlight.
• Humans spotted the migrating Weird, and someone posted about the procession on the Sequence User Forum, where it quickly attracted thousands of replies.
• Niu Dagang and the others woke Luo Fan and showed him the viral post about his wife.
• Luo Fan read the Weird Bride's message saying she would stay in Yi City until the Innate Yin Jade fully formed and that the Red Veil could let him enter the city safely.
• Luo Fan warned the Weird Bride about the forum's attention, then told Zhao Chunfeng that her group in Yi City might grow to over a hundred thousand Weird.

Luo Fan told Jiang Shengnan that the Weird Bride’s gathering of Weird in Yi City could make the wilderness safer, and the Aerospace Base decided to investigate her motives while supporting him. Later, Zhang Qian delivered two thousand Enhancement Potions to Luo Fan, who paid him with ten Second-Order Weird Crystals.

• Luo Fan told Jiang Shengnan that the Weird Bride might confine thousands of Weird to Yi City and reduce the number roaming the wilderness.
• Jiang Shengnan relayed Luo Fan’s information to Professor Wen Hao, and the Aerospace Base’s leaders discussed the possible benefits of the gathering and decided to rely on Luo Fan to uncover the Weird Bride’s objective.
• Professor Wen Hao and the others agreed to pressure the Flame Sun Base with help from the Greenedge Base and others if it threatened Luo Fan.
• Zhang Qian brought Luo Fan two thousand Enhancement Potions, including Berserk, Witchcraft, and Iron Potions, and said production had cost about four hundred First-Order Weird Crystals.
• Luo Fan gave Zhang Qian ten Second-Order Weird Crystals as payment.

Luo Fan rewarded Zhang Qian with a third-tier weird crystal, and Zhang Qian revealed a new mist-producing potion skill. Luo Fan listed half of Zhang Qian’s enhancement potions for sale and planned to offer the rest to the Greenedge Base and Aerospace Base.

• Zhang Qian refused payment for mixing enhancement potions, but Luo Fan explained that the Hope Convoy paid its workers and that Zhang Qian’s growth would benefit the group.
• Zhang Qian asked Luo Fan to exchange ten second-order weird crystals for one third-tier crystal, and Luo Fan gave him one without asking for the difference.
• Zhang Qian told Luo Fan that reaching Level 17 had awakened a mist magic potion recipe that obscured vision and perception, and Luo Fan offered to gather its materials.
• Zhang Qian left to absorb the crystal, while Luo Fan reflected that rewarding him had strengthened his sense of belonging to the Hope Convoy.
• Luo Fan listed one thousand enhancement potions in hundred sets for twenty first-order weird crystals each and planned to ask the Greenedge Base and Aerospace Base about the remaining stock.

Lian Ziqiong and a convoy captain discovered Luo Fan’s Enhancement Potions on the Trading Section, where they quickly sold. Luo Fan sold the remaining thousand potions to Greenedge Base, then learned Professor Wen planned to negotiate with Flame Sun Base over Luo Fan’s conflict with them.

• Lian Ziqiong browsed the Sequence User Forum, marked Yi City as a place to avoid, and examined Luo Fan’s Enhancement Potions in the Trading Section.
• A convoy captain and his companions pooled Weird crystals to buy a set of potions for their fighters.
• Luo Fan told Mo Mo he had made two thousand potions and sold half through the Trading Section, and Mo Mo questioned his prices before apologizing.
• Mo Mo bought all one thousand remaining potions for Greenedge Base and paid Luo Fan with twenty third-tier Weird crystals.
• Mo Mo told Luo Fan that Professor Wen planned to join several bases in negotiating with Flame Sun Base to resolve their conflict.

Luo Fan learned that Master Wen Hao planned to mediate his conflict with Flame Sun Base and would side with him if the dispute proved irreconcilable. After selling Enhancement Potions and checking his crystal reserves, Luo Fan decided to wait for negotiations before acting against the base.

• Luo Fan asked Master Wen Hao for potion ingredients and learned that Aerospace Base intended to mediate his conflict with Flame Sun Base.
• Master Wen Hao explained that Luo Fan’s importance in uncovering the Weird Bride’s objective made protecting him a priority, and said Aerospace Base would deal with Zhang Dakai if peace failed.
• Luo Fan agreed to set aside his grudge against Flame Sun Base’s other members if Zhang Dakai was dealt with.
• Luo Fan sold one hundred sets of Enhancement Potions and took stock of his Weird Crystal reserves.
• Luo Fan decided to let Master Wen Hao negotiate before taking action, then received another private message from him about two hours later.

Luo Fan traded for potion materials and arranged a mediated meeting with Zhang Dakai of Flame Sun Base, then chose Xiao Ran and Ximen Chuixue as his two companions. After An Xiaoran and Ximen Chuixue advanced in level, Ximen revealed his Third-Tier advancement quest and proposed hunting a Fourth-Tier Frostflame Giant Lizard with Luo Fan.

• Luo Fan bought Enhancement Potion and Mist Magic Potion materials from Master Wen Hao for 1,500 First-Order Weird Crystals.
• Luo Fan agreed to meet Zhang Dakai in Jiangkou Town at noon three days later, with Flame Sun Base choosing the time and Luo Fan choosing the place.
• Luo Fan selected Xiao Ran and Ximen Chuixue to accompany him, reasoning that their support and combat roles would complement his own.
• An Xiaoran broke through to Lv29, and Ximen Chuixue later reached Lv30.
• Ximen Chuixue told Luo Fan that his advancement quest required the heart of a Third-Tier-or-higher Frostflame Giant Lizard, then suggested they hunt a Fourth-Tier one together.
