Chapter Summaries

At Mother-in-law's palace, the Years Weird told her that Luo Fan had obtained Innate Yang Steel and used his Godhead Authority to break the seal hiding Honghong's identity in Peach Blossom Spring Town. He chose not to intervene yet because an unusual Weird had entered the forbidden town, and he wanted to see what happened while Luo Fan suffered.

• The Years Weird explained that Luo Fan had obtained Innate Yang Steel and had Willow Immortal Elder forge it into weapons capable of countering Weird.
• Mother-in-law praised Luo Fan's success, but the Years Weird revealed that Luo Fan had gone to Peach Blossom Spring Town.
• The Years Weird said Luo Fan had used Godhead Authority to break his concept-level seal and learn Honghong's true identity.
• Mother-in-law suggested that the Years Weird had brought this trouble on himself, since Luo Fan's Godhead Authority could surpass concept-level power.
• The Years Weird said an unusual Weird had entered Peach Blossom Spring Town and decided to wait before intervening, letting Luo Fan suffer for a while.

Luo Fan and the Hope Convoy spent one last day in Peach Blossom Spring Town before preparing to leave, but their departure was halted when An Xiaoran could not be found. Luo Fan searched the camp and, unable to reach her by phone, took out the Golden Weird Mirror to look for her.

• Luo Fan told the Qipao Weird he planned to leave because he feared her father might visit Peach Blossom Spring Town, and she acknowledged that sunlight left her vulnerable.
• Luo Fan agreed to stay one more day with his companions before departing at night, and they spent the day exploring town and sharing a farewell meal with Ding Yuening, Zhi Zhou, and Han Xiangdong.
• As the Hope Convoy prepared to leave, Luo Fan discovered that An Xiaoran was missing and learned she had last been seen going to use the bathroom during the meal.
• Luo Fan received no reply to his messages, declined Zhao Chunfeng's offer to use divination, and took out the Golden Weird Mirror to search for An Xiaoran.

Luo Fan suspected the Years Weird had taken An Xiaoran and repeatedly tried to contact him, but received no reply. The Years Weird heard Luo Fan calling from Mother-in-law’s Weird Domain and grew increasingly irritated as their rare time together was interrupted.

• Luo Fan questioned the Golden Weird Mirror about An Xiaoran’s disappearance, and it explained that her divinity prevented it from sensing her.
• Luo Fan reasoned that a human could not have captured An Xiaoran unnoticed and concluded that the Years Weird was the likeliest suspect.
• Luo Fan called out to the Years Weird from his carriage, but got no response and kept trying.
• In Mother-in-law’s Weird Domain, the Years Weird repeatedly sensed Luo Fan calling his name while Mother-in-law guessed that Luo Fan was in Peach Blossom Spring Town.
• Luo Fan shouted for the Years Weird to answer, even if only with a fart, and the Years Weird lost his composure over the interruption.

Luo Fan learned that a Weird had taken An Xiaoran and suspected it had breached the Years Weird’s prohibition around Peach Blossom Spring Town, but the Years Weird refused to help.

• Tomeko shattered the Qipao Weird's time barrier with one strike, badly injuring her, and declared that she was going to die.

• The Qipao Weird could not rise as Tomeko raised her sharpened hand to strike, leaving the residents fearing what would happen next.

Luo Fan arrived in Peach Blossom Spring Town and used the Weird Gun to wound Tomeko, who had badly injured the Qipao Weird while taking An Xiaoran. After learning Tomeko was the one who abducted An Xiaoran, Luo Fan turned his attention toward her with killing intent.

• Han Xiangdong used his freezing rule to shield the Qipao Weird from Tomeko's Killing Blow.
• Tomeko prepared to attack Han Xiangdong, but Luo Fan's Crystal-Energy Bullet grazed her and blasted through several buildings.
• Luo Fan arrived with his Nightmare Nekomata, and the Weird Gun's suppressive power weakened Tomeko.
• Luo Fan saw the Qipao Weird's severe injuries and asked how Tomeko had entered Peach Blossom Spring Town.
• The Qipao Weird identified Tomeko and told Luo Fan that she had taken An Xiaoran.
• Luo Fan realized Tomeko's connection to An Xiaoran and fixed her with a cold gaze.

Luo Fan confronted Tomeko after she abducted An Xiaoran and demanded that she return her. When his Petrification Bait failed to affect Tomeko, the Qipao Weird revealed that Tomeko had a Divinity, and Luo Fan prepared to fight if she would not let An Xiaoran go.

• Luo Fan confronted Tomeko and asked where she had taken An Xiaoran.
• Tomeko admitted through her silence that An Xiaoran had not gone with her entirely willingly, then refused to return her, insisting she was better off with Tomeko.
• Luo Fan threw a Petrification Bait at Tomeko, but its rule power did not control her.
• The Qipao Weird told Luo Fan that her Time Reversal also failed against Tomeko because Tomeko had a Divinity.
• Luo Fan readied his Weird Gun and told Tomeko they could avoid a fight if she returned An Xiaoran.

Luo Fan fought Tomeko to rescue An Xiaoran, using his suppressive weapons and close-combat skills to overcome her sixth-tier strength. He forced Tomeko backward and trapped her leg with Sealing Trap, leaving the fight unresolved.

• Luo Fan redirected Tomeko's knife-hand and drove her several steps backward.
• Sealing Trap clamped onto Tomeko's lower leg as she tried to regain her balance.

Luo Fan subdued Tomeko after raising his level to match hers and overpowering her in close combat. With Tomeko pinned to the road, he demanded to know where An Xiaoran was.

• Tomeko pursued Luo Fan, but he canceled Mimicry and activated Ode to Courage, raising himself to Lv63.
• Tomeko tried to flee, but Luo Fan caught her wrist, overpowered her, and pinned her to the Flagstone Road.
• Luo Fan asked the restrained Tomeko where An Xiaoran was.

Luo Fan freed An Xiaoran after defeating Tomeko, who honored their wager and then escaped through her mobile Weird Domain. After Tomeko threatened the Qipao Weird, Luo Fan explained that the Godhead Fragment let Tomeko resist rule skills she had seen before.

• Tomeko admitted defeat and opened a temporary entrance to her Weird Domain, from which An Xiaoran returned unharmed.
• Tomeko explained that she could move her Weird Domain and open its entrance wherever she chose, unlike Luo Fan's fixed entrance in Lin City.
• Luo Fan let Tomeko go, and she warned the injured Qipao Weird that their feud was not over before leaving through the vortex.
• The Qipao Weird asked why her time rule and Luo Fan's rule skills had failed against Tomeko while Han Xiangdong's freezing rule had worked.
• Luo Fan reasoned that Tomeko's Godhead Fragment let her counter rule skills she had witnessed, while Han Xiangdong's unfamiliar freezing rule could still affect her.

After leaving Peach Blossom Spring Town, Luo Fan learned that Mr. Mo Mo planned to raid Wanzi Mountain for void spirit jade to build a mobile Data Exchange Center. Seeing how the center’s livestreaming could expand his and An Xiaoran’s powers, Luo Fan told Mr. Mo Mo he could supply an inexhaustible amount of void spirit jade.

• The Hope Convoy left Peach Blossom Spring Town, and Luo Fan received a message from Mr. Mo Mo asking for help.
• Mr. Mo Mo explained that fierce beasts occupied Wanzi Mountain and that he wanted a team to clear them out and recover void spirit jade.
• Mr. Mo Mo described his plan to use the jade to build a mobile Data Exchange Center that would improve Doomsday Phone communication and enable livestreaming.
• Luo Fan realized livestreaming could help him gather faith points and let An Xiaoran gain adoration from far more people.
• Luo Fan told Mr. Mo Mo there was no need to raid Wanzi Mountain because he had an inexhaustible vein of void spirit jade.

Luo Fan revealed his long-hidden Void Spirit Jade Vein to Mr. Mo Mo and decided to bring Greenedge Base and the Aerospace Base into a cooperative mining venture. As the convoy changed course toward the vein, Master Wen Hao received Luo Fan’s invitation and reacted with shock.

• Luo Fan told Mr. Mo Mo that he controlled an unmined Void Spirit Jade Vein, and Mr. Mo Mo arranged to meet him in person.
• Luo Fan changed the Hope Convoy’s route and explained that he wanted Greenedge Base and the Aerospace Base to share the mining work and risks rather than simply sell jade.
• Zhao Chunfeng, Niu Dagang, Lin Feifei, and Han Shanzhong accepted Luo Fan’s decision, while Mo Yuling was surprised the convoy had kept the vein secret.
• Luo Fan invited Master Wen Hao to join the partnership, and Master Wen Hao jumped up in shock after reading the message.

Luo Fan brought Mr. Mo Mo and Master Wen Hao to inspect a Void Spirit Jade Vein, where a prospecting Sequence User estimated its yield at 6,800 tons. The discovery promised major advances for Greenedge Base and left Luo Fan ready to discuss the mining rights.

• Mr. Mo Mo explained that he needed Void Spirit Jade to build a portable data exchange center for Doomsday Phones and Monitoring Glasses, and Zhao Chunfeng suggested adding livestreaming.
• Luo Fan led the group into the hill’s cave, where Lin Feifei killed an attacking Weird and Luo Fan cleared out several more.
• An Xiaoran lit the cave with holy light, revealing the high-quality Void Spirit Jade Vein to Mr. Mo Mo and Master Wen Hao.
• A prospecting Sequence User determined that the vein could yield approximately 6,800 tons of Void Spirit Jade, making it a medium-sized vein.
• Mr. Mo Mo and Master Wen Hao described how the jade could support a data exchange center and transform Greenedge Base’s vehicles, while Luo Fan said they should discuss the mining rights.

Luo Fan, Mr. Mo Mo, and Master Wen Hao agreed on how to share profits from the void spirit jade vein, but realized that repeated attacks by Weird made mining dangerous. After rejecting several imperfect solutions, Luo Fan said he might know how to mine it safely.

• Mr. Mo Mo and Master Wen Hao agreed that Greenedge Base would process the jade and Aerospace Base would provide mining personnel and advertising.
• Luo Fan proposed that Hope Convoy receive forty percent of the profits, with Greenedge Base and Aerospace Base each receiving thirty percent, and the others accepted.
• Master Wen Hao warned that large groups mining at a fixed site would attract increasingly powerful Weird, and that mining in regular cycles would let them set ambushes.
• Mr. Mo Mo suggested moving the vein into Luo Fan's Weird Domain, but Master Wen Hao explained that the vein could not be transferred without shattering it.
• Mr. Mo Mo and Master Wen Hao settled on mining at irregular intervals as a last resort, but Luo Fan said he might have a way to mine the vein safely.

Luo Fan revealed that the Innate Yang Steel in his Demon-Breaking Dagger could repel Weirds and make mining the Void Spirit Jade Vein safer. He then raised the problem of finding someone he could trust completely to guard the dagger, leaving the mining plan unresolved.

• Luo Fan explained that Innate Yang Steel repelled Weirds, then demonstrated its aura with the Demon-Breaking Dagger.
• Mr. Mo Mo realized the dagger could protect the Void Spirit Jade Vein from Weird attacks, and Master Wen Hao agreed that the plan could work.
• Luo Fan considered the risk of leaving his rare weapon at the vein and concluded he could not entrust it to anyone casually.
• Luo Fan told Mr. Mo Mo and Master Wen Hao that he needed someone he trusted completely to guard the Demon-Breaking Dagger.

Luo Fan left the Demon-Breaking Dagger at the Void Spirit Jade vein and chose Zhang Da to guard it, while the others began planning the mine and the Exchange Center’s expansion. He secretly returned to his RV with the dagger and activated his godhead authority, leaving his real intentions unresolved.

• Luo Fan offered to leave the Demon-Breaking Dagger at the vein and asked for someone to guard it.
• Zhang Da volunteered to protect the dagger, explaining that his weapons could handle Fierce Beasts, and Luo Fan accepted.
• Luo Fan claimed he needed time to remove safeguards from the dagger, giving himself an excuse to return to his room alone.
• Mr. Mo Mo and Master Wen Hao discussed Exchange Center designs and mining plans while the Hope Convoy members relaxed at the campsite.
• Zhao Chunfeng noticed Luo Fan’s unusual choice of guardian and concluded that Luo Fan likely had other plans.
• Luo Fan revealed that the safeguards were a pretext, placed the dagger on a table in his RV, and activated his godhead authority.

Luo Fan used the God of Deception’s authority to make a third-tier dagger indistinguishable from the real Demon-Breaking Dagger, then hid the genuine weapon in the mine and gave the counterfeit to Zhang Da. As the convoy traveled toward Lin City, Luo Fan advanced to Lv54 and An Xiaoran reached Lv49, just one step from becoming a Fifth-Tier Sequence User.

• Luo Fan spent ten million faith points and the Weird Bride’s support to transform an ordinary dagger into a convincing replica of the Demon-Breaking Dagger.
• Luo Fan hid the genuine Demon-Breaking Dagger in a crack in the mine and gave the counterfeit to Zhang Da to guard the ore vein.
• Luo Fan and the Hope Convoy left for Lin City, while the real dagger remained concealed in the mine.
• During the journey, Luo Fan absorbed an eighth-tier weird crystal and advanced to Demon Hunter Sequence Lv54.
• An Xiaoran absorbed her eighth-tier weird crystal and advanced to Holy Light Angel Sequence Lv49.
• At dawn, Luo Fan’s Doomsday Phone rang and displayed a private message.

Mo Yuling asked Luo Fan to guard her body while she completed the mission to become a fifth-tier Sequence User, and he agreed. They traveled into a mountain forest to reach the mission site, where both were shocked by what they found.

• Mo Yuling told Luo Fan that her Promotion Mission required her consciousness to enter an alternate dimension while someone guarded her defenseless body, and Luo Fan agreed to help.
• Mo Yuling explained that the mission site was dangerous and allowed only one guard, while members of the Hope Convoy congratulated her and privately reflected on the growing gap between their tiers and Luo Fan’s.
• Luo Fan and Mo Yuling flew to the mountain forest on Black Bird, which had reached Lv41 and become a fourth-tier fierce beast.
• Luo Fan and Mo Yuling followed the mission’s directions through the forest until they reached the destination and were both shocked by the sight before them.

Luo Fan and Mo Yuling found another Luo Fan guarding a motionless version of Mo Yuling at a waterfall pool, where she had gone during her Promotion Mission. The two Luo Fans exchanged proof of their identities and grew nearly certain they were real counterparts, but the mystery of their meeting remained unresolved.

• Luo Fan and Mo Yuling reached a waterfall pool filled with Fierce Beast corpses and saw a Luo Fan guarding a motionless Mo Yuling on a stone platform.
• Luo Fan introduced himself and Mo Yuling as visitors helping with her Promotion Mission, but the other Luo Fan raised his Weird Gun and surrounded the pool with its Innate Yang Steel aura.
• The two Luo Fans drew identical Weird Guns and questioned whether the other was a Fierce Beast, a Weird being, or an illusion.
• Luo Fan used the numbers twenty-five billion and eight billion to test the other's identity, and the other Luo Fan responded with the exact figures tied to his Faith Points.
• The pool's Luo Fan named the Professional Sequence and Treasure Appraisal function, and Luo Fan answered with Reforge, leaving both men nearly convinced the other was real.
