Ling Yi realized he had died as an insignificant character in the original story and decided to search the Heavenly Mysterious Sect’s records for clues about the Heavenly Devil. He spent his Regret Points on powerful treasures and skills, while next door Wang Feng worried that his poor talent would make Shen Mengli look down on him.

His system then revealed that Cheng Biyun had become a reverse-conquest target after another novel's plot merged into this one, leaving Wang Feng facing a future encounter with the reborn woman whose tragic fate he remembered.
