After returning to World-Creation Mountain, Xiao Tian prepared to take Shi Kuan out of Northern Mountain to find his princess, while the Dongfang Sisters, Tushan Honghong, and Captain stayed with him.

• Shi Kuan declined the group fight and urged Xiao Tian to hurry so they could search for the princess.

Xiao Tian brought Shi Kuan to Bai Shi Village to find the reincarnated princess of the Demon-Subduing Kingdom, while Captain gained the Tian Ku Star Spirit’s Weeping to Heaven and Earth ability. As a wealthy household’s dogs charged at the group, Dongfang Qinlan used Fire Release: Phoenix Flower Jutsu, and something strange happened.

• Xiao Tian helped Shi Kuan and the others choose divine abilities from the Star Spirits of the thirty-six heavenly dipper stars.
• Captain received the Tian Ku Star Spirit’s Weeping to Heaven and Earth ability, which weakened nearby enemies and prevented them from using storage treasures.
• Xiao Tian reassured Shi Kuan that they could deal with the Yiqi Dao League and used the Heavenly Book of the Deva Path to locate the princess in Bai Shi Village.
• Xiao Tian and the group arrived at the Lu Family’s house, where a patrolling villager warned them about its vicious dogs.
• A sinister young man released more than a dozen dogs, and Dongfang Qinlan attacked the six rushing at her with Fire Release: Phoenix Flower Jutsu.

Dongfang Qinlan’s attempt to use a spell failed, but she kicked the Lu family’s vicious dogs into their young master and impressed two village patrolmen. Xiao Tian and his companions encountered the reincarnated princess of the Demon-Subduing Kingdom, and Xiao Tian prepared to act on the hateful presence surrounding her.

• Dongfang Qinlan’s spell produced only sparks, so she kicked two vicious dogs into the Lu family’s young master and sent him unconscious.

The lovers reunited but discovered that Curse Yin Lightning prevented them from touching, leaving Shi Kuan willing to wait.

• Xiao Tian hammered Shi Kuan and the reincarnation of the Demon-Subduing Kingdom's princess until black Qi emerged from her.
• Xiao Tian used One Hammer Settles It to nearly destroy the Black Fox Empress's clone, then pulled it from the princess's body.

• Curse Yin Lightning spread across the princess when Shi Kuan touched her, so he let go.
• The princess explained that she may have been cursed after drinking water touched by a talisman, and Shi Kuan promised to wait until he could touch her again.

Xiao Tian used Tsukuyomi to break the Black Fox Empress Clone’s resistance and unexpectedly made her his loyal subordinate. She agreed to help him lift the Curse Yin Lightning, while he began imagining her defeating the original Black Fox Empress.

• The Bai Shi Village chief returned and found his daughter heartbroken and the Lu Family’s eldest young master unconscious beneath a dog.

• A system message announced that Xiao Tian had conquered the Black Fox Empress Clone, who became entirely new and forever loyal to him.
• The Black Fox Empress Clone agreed to help Xiao Tian lift the Curse Yin Lightning, and he envisioned her defeating the original Black Fox Empress.

Xiao Tian learned that the Black Fox Empress’s curse on the Demon-Subduing Kingdom princess could only end through her natural death, but Captain’s wooden carvings temporarily let her and Shi Kuan hold hands safely. Xiao Tian then used the Heavenly Dao Emperor Flame and Heavenly Dao Double Pupils to search for the curse’s source.

• Xiao Tian discovered that the Curse Yin Lightning came from a love poison tied to the Black Fox Empress and would pass to the princess’s next life if she died unnaturally.
• Xiao Tian returned and found the princess and Shi Kuan holding hands without triggering the curse, thanks to Captain’s red sandalwood carving, which protected them for five minutes.
• Captain brought more carvings and told the princess and Shi Kuan he could make enough to keep the curse at bay.
• Xiao Tian received the princess’s consent and began searching for the curse’s source with the Heavenly Dao Emperor Flame and Heavenly Dao Double Pupils.

Xiao Tian discovered that the princess’s Curse Yin Lightning could not be removed before her natural death, but promised to keep seeking a cure. After Shi Kuan rewarded him with a token and the princess asked for cola, Xiao Tian left to rejoin Tushan Honghong, Dongfang Qinlan, and Dongfang Huaizhu.

• Xiao Tian examined the princess and told her and Shi Kuan that the Curse Yin Lightning would end after she died naturally and reincarnated, though she would have to wait decades.
• Shi Kuan and the princess accepted the long wait, and Xiao Tian warned Shi Kuan to protect her from an unnatural death.
• Xiao Tian explained that the Black Fox Empress’s clone had described the Curse Yin Lightning as a mysterious poison of vows and love, and he vowed to keep searching for a cure.

• Xiao Tian told Tushan Honghong he had killed the Black Fox and promised to protect Tushan from any others.
• Xiao Tian agreed to let Captain travel with them if he continued supplying wooden carvings, and he considered the strange power surrounding the carvings.
• The Lu Family’s steward warned Xiao Tian and the others that Yiqi Dao League cultivators were coming to attack the family.
• Xiao Tian sensed that Bai Shi Village’s Spell-Sealing Restriction had been strengthened, and Steward Lu explained that the two village families had activated it.
• Steward Lu offered to guide the group through a secret passage, but Xiao Tian refused, saying the restriction would not affect them.

• Xiao Tian led Steward Lu and the others to gather at the village entrance, while Dongfang Qinlan complained that she could not use her magic power and Dongfang Huaizhu tested her flame.
• Villagers carrying shovels and hoes demanded that Steward Lu surrender Tushan Honghong and the other monsters to the Yiqi Dao League.
• Xiao Tian argued that humans and monsters could coexist, then used his Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan to put the old man and the villagers into a mild Genjutsu.
• Xiao Tian told the group to bring cement and wait at the village entrance, puzzling Dongfang Qinlan with his plan to make the Yiqi Dao League perform Phoenix Dancing Across the Nine Heavens.
• About a hundred Yiqi Dao League cultivators flew in on swords, and their leading girl ordered the monsters of Bai Shi Village to surrender; Xiao Tian recognized her and grinned.

Wangquan Zui mistook Xiao Tian and his companions for the Mask Group and attacked Tushan Honghong, who swiftly defeated her and the Yiqi Dao League cultivators. After learning Wangquan Zui was Wangquan Baye’s younger sister, Tushan Honghong let her off lightly, and Xiao Tian healed the defeated cultivators before they departed.

• Wangquan Zui recognized the group’s masks and ordered more than thirty cultivators to attack Tushan Honghong.
• Tushan Honghong effortlessly broke the cultivators’ talismans, while Xiao Tian hypnotized Steward Lu and watched.

• Wangquan Zui stopped fighting and claimed she and the Mask Group were on the same side because her brother belonged to it.
• Xiao Tian healed the defeated cultivators with his cola, and they left while casting resentful looks at Wangquan Zui.

• Wangquan Zui paid Xiao Tian two hundred thousand taels and became a member of the Mask Group.

• Wangquan Zui recognized Tushan Honghong as Tushan’s ruler and excitedly asked her for an autograph.
• Xiao Tian left Bai Shi Village with Tushan Honghong, the Dongfang Sisters, and the others, declining Wangquan Zui’s invitation to visit her home.
• On a wilderness road, Xiao Tian identified the demon in a prison wagon as Gyuki of Kongxian Mountain, Yan Ruyu.

Xiao Tian and Tushan Honghong intercepted the Yiqi Dao League’s prisoner, Gyuki, and discovered that he was Tushan Rongrong’s disciple, Yan Ruyu. After Honghong struck him and Xiao Tian revived him, Xiao Tian learned Yan Ruyu had not preyed on human women and began questioning why he had left Tushan.

• Xiao Tian paid Li Goudan to hand over the imprisoned Gyuki, then told Tushan Honghong that the demon might be connected to her.
• Xiao Tian identified Gyuki as Yan Ruyu, a disciple of Tushan Rongrong, and Tushan Honghong struck him down for disgracing Rongrong.
• Xiao Tian healed Yan Ruyu and accused him of using disguise techniques to prey on human women.
• Yan Ruyu denied the accusation and explained that he had disguised himself to approach the goddess he admired.
• Xiao Tian used the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan to confirm Yan Ruyu’s story and realized the Yiqi Dao League cultivator had captured him out of jealousy.
• Tushan Honghong regretted hitting Yan Ruyu, while Xiao Tian questioned why Rongrong had allowed the inexperienced disciple to leave Tushan.

• Yan Ruyu told Xiao Tian that a golden-haired fox immortal had taken him to his goddess by the river at Kongxian Mountain.
• Tushan Honghong denied that Tushan had such an important fox immortal, then called Xiao Tian out for taking lollipops from the Demon Fragrance Pavilion.

• Several days later, Xiao Tian and his companions returned to Tushan, where he urged Yan Ruyu to study hard and strengthen the Gyuki Clan.
• Yan Ruyu thanked Xiao Tian, and the system awarded Xiao Tian twenty Achievement Points for changing Yan Ruyu’s outlook and life.
• Kaguya suggested Yan Ruyu might learn the Heavenly Anomaly Star Spirit’s abilities, but Xiao Tian chose to wait and observe him first.

• Xiao Tian led the others toward the Bitter Love Tree, but Tushan Rongrong arrived before they reached it.

Tushan Rongrong questioned Yan Ruyu about the golden-haired fox demon and learned that the Yiqi Dao League had attacked Tushan again. She schemed to make Xiao Tian responsible for catching the mysterious demon, then confronted him about teaching Yan Ruyu a divine ability.

• Yan Ruyu told Tushan Rongrong that a golden-haired, golden-eyed fox demon had captured him and taken him into Yiqi Dao League territory.
• Tushan Rongrong reported that the Yiqi Dao League had attacked, but Tushan Meimei had swiftly driven off its challengers.
• Tushan Rongrong teased Xiao Tian about his debts and maneuvered him into agreeing to catch the mysterious fox demon, with Tushan Honghong backing her up.
• Yan Ruyu revealed that Xiao Tian had taught him the Heavenly Anomaly Thirty-Six Transformations, and Tushan Rongrong challenged Xiao Tian over whether he was trying to take her disciple.
• Tushan Rongrong told Yan Ruyu to demonstrate the divine ability he had been practicing.

Yan Ruyu successfully used Xiao Tian’s Heavenly Anomaly Thirty-Six Transformations, and Xiao Tian shared information about Black Foxes with Tushan Rongrong in exchange for food. Rongrong regretted the bargain after seeing the enormous bill, before a sudden disturbance broke out downstairs.

• Yan Ruyu transformed into a Spiked Armor Dragon Turtle, and Xiao Tian explained that the technique’s effects would grow with his cultivation.

• Xiao Tian, Dongfang Qinlan, Kaguya, and Captain relaxed on a rooftop after dinner, but Xiao Tian rushed downstairs when a disturbance erupted.

Xiao Tian discovered that the Wangquan Zui fighting Dongfang Huaizhu was an illusion created by Light Golden Morning Dawn and absorbed its golden Qi. He contacted Light Golden Morning Dawn, learned it had helped Gyuki Yan Ruyu and Wangquan Zui, but it fled before they could meet.

• Xiao Tian saw through the fake Wangquan Zui, immobilized it, and engulfed it in his Heavenly Dao Emperor Flame.
• After absorbing Light Golden Morning Dawn's power, Xiao Tian found a small Wangquan Zui crystal and established communication with Light Golden Morning Dawn.
• Light Golden Morning Dawn said it had helped Gyuki Yan Ruyu return to his homeland and had helped Wangquan Zui learn divine abilities.
• Light Golden Morning Dawn sensed Xiao Tian could destroy it, apologized, and cut off contact, leaving Xiao Tian determined to meet it face-to-face.
