• Han Zhen called out to the hidden Nie Yexing, but neither Han Zhen nor Situ Shuo moved, each expecting Nie Yexing to strike first.

• Su Yi told the students he would teach them to identify mutated beasts and plants, and confirmed the class was not required.
• The students began leaving for other classes, and within minutes only three students remained: a frail child, a bespectacled note-taker, and a heavily made-up girl.

• Su Yi brought Xiao Wenyu and Li Youyou to his lodging, where Xiao Wenyu's hunger prompted Su Yi to cook dinner.
• Su Yi told Li Youyou to stay and watch over Xiao Wenyu while he returned to Qingzhou to sleep.

Li Youyou brought Xiao Wenyu to school and revealed that she had killed Wang Qinghan, frightening the teachers who questioned her. Su Yi arranged for Li Youyou to enroll in Xiao Wenyu’s class, and she promised to protect him from bullies—except Su Yi.

• Zhang Jinglun and Huang Sanxing returned to Spirit Void Palace under cover of night and reported Su Yi to their sect leader.

Wei Xingchen learned that Nie Yexing had died and wrongly concluded that Han Zhen and Su Yi had captured Situ Shuo, so he gathered the Spirit Void Palace elders to confront Su Yi. Su Yi discovered that Huang Sanxing had torn up his books, then arrived at Han Zhen and Situ Shuo’s standoff and revealed that he had killed Nie Yexing.

• The Spirit Void Palace discovered that Nie Yexing’s life-bound spirit pearl had gone dark, and Wei Xingchen summoned Zhang Jinglun and Huang Sanxing to report.

After Spirit Void Palace spread Su Yi’s Complete Global Exotic Beast Cookbook across Huaxia, people mistook him for one of its disciples. Li Youyou went to collect copies, and Spirit Void Palace’s elders and ancestors prepared to accompany her to Spirit Wood Town and attend Su Yi’s class.

• Han Zhen realized how powerful Spirit Void Palace was and felt relieved that Su Yi had stopped him from challenging Wei Xingchen.

Su Yi said he preferred to let each side rely on its own strength, but, bored with his peaceful life, he decided to give humans and mutant beasts a common language, leaving people around the world shocked by the beasts’ sudden ability to speak.

• Li Youyou brought Wei Xingchen and the others’ fifty thousand copied books back to Spirit Wood Town, and Su Yi told her to keep twenty thousand copies and distribute the rest across the country.
• Li Youyou asked whether Su Yi would help humanity wipe out the mutant beasts, and he said he favored Huaxia civilization but wanted both sides to rely on their own strength.

• Li Youyou asked about the Heavenly Dao, and Su Yi decided to establish rules in the Thirteenth Universe, starting with Earth.
• Su Yi gave every mutant beast the ability to understand and speak local human languages, and humans around the world reacted in shock as a Two-Headed Netherworld Wolf insulted a person during a fight.

Su Yi’s changes let exotic beasts understand human speech, leading them to use insults and grappling techniques while reducing fights among beasts that could now communicate. At Spirit Wood Town, Huang Changyu persuaded Wei Xingchen to help humanity in hopes of earning an introduction to Su Yi and making amends.

• Su Yi caused exotic beasts across Huaxia to understand human language, and they began overhearing human plans, cursing their opponents, and fighting back with grappling techniques.

Li Youyou conveyed Su Yi’s orders to Wei Xingchen, and the Spirit Void Palace agreed to send its disciples out to help save the world. Su Yi began teaching Xiao Wenyu Daoist arts and took him to Kunlun Mountain, where they encountered a giant python.

• Li Youyou told Wei Xingchen that Su Yi would not see him, ordered him to leave thirty thousand books at the base, and directed the Spirit Void Palace to distribute the rest.
• Wei Xingchen promised that the Spirit Void Palace would send its disciples out to save the world, and one of its ancestors rebuked him for sealing the mountain gates during their years of seclusion.
• Su Yi asked Xiao Wenyu if he wanted to learn Daoist arts, explained that he would be his teacher rather than take him as a disciple, and transported him to Kunlun Mountain.
• A giant python threatened to eat Su Yi and Xiao Wenyu, but Su Yi grabbed its fang and identified it as a Five-Flower Giant Python, which he said would make delicious food.

Su Yi restrained the five-colored python and taught Xiao Wenyu the Li Fire Art, whose first attempt briefly threatened the world before Su Yi dispelled the flames. After Xiao Wenyu practiced through the afternoon, Su Yi prepared a meal and turned his attention to the python with a kitchen knife.

• Su Yi stopped the five-colored python from biting or using venom, then made it move its tail forward so Xiao Wenyu could practice on it.
• Su Yi showed Xiao Wenyu how to form the hand seal for the Li Fire Art, and the spell gathered flames across the sky that Su Yi quickly dispelled.
• Xiao Wenyu learned to convert Spiritual Qi into fire and repeatedly struck the python's tail, but his flames caused no damage.
• As evening came, Su Yi conjured a table, chairs, and cooking utensils, seated the hungry Xiao Wenyu, and picked up a kitchen knife while eyeing the python.
