Xiao Yexuan led the group to the hidden cave where Tang Hao had kept Ah Yin, the Blue Silver Emperor, and explained how she could be revived. Xiao Wu began feeding Ah Yin her life-rich blood, which Ning Rongrong recognized as the rare Gold of Life, and Ah Yin started to grow.

• The group chose swimsuits and changed for the pool party, while the Kessoku Band girls prepared to sing and Ellen fell asleep.

Xiao Yexuan recruited Ah Yin as a maid so she could earn money and join Maple Forest Evening, then brought his companions to Holy Soul Village to look for Tang Hao.

Ah Yin learned from Holy Soul Village’s memories that Tang Hao had mistreated Tang San and had likely sacrificed her for her Soul Ring and Soul Bone, so she rejected her attachment to him and Tang San. She pledged herself to Xiao Yexuan, while Tang Yuehua also uncovered the truth about Tang Hao and grew furious over the harm he had caused the Clear Sky Sect.
