Ning Fengzhi and Dugu Bo negotiated custody of Xiao Wu, but Yu Xiaogang intervened, claiming Tang Hao had raised her for Tang San and threatening to involve Spirit Hall. Ning Fengzhi hesitated to seize Xiao Wu, wary of provoking Tang Hao and Bibi Dong.

• Ning Fengzhi asked to keep Xiao Wu in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, hoping to secure her Soul Bone if a sect elder obtained her Spirit Ring.
• Dugu Bo recognized Ning Fengzhi's scheme but agreed because he doubted the sect's elders could break through and trusted Nine Stars Hall's strength.

• Yu Xiaogang warned Ning Fengzhi that Spirit Hall could covet Xiao Wu, prompting Ning Fengzhi to consider the danger of taking her and provoking Tang Hao or Bibi Dong.

Ning Fengzhi gave up his claim to the transformed Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, but Dugu Bo and Yang Wudi moved to claim it for Nine Stars Hall.

• Xiao Yu arranged for Black Tortoise and Aphrodite to lead Rong Dou, Cang Mo, and You Na on hunts for their fifth Spirit Rings.

At Shrek Academy, Ning Rongrong agreed to help Xiao Wu escape only after Tang San woke and they said goodbye.

Rhadamanthus captured Xiao Wu as Tang Hao headed toward Sunset Forest, while Aiacos defeated Titan and looted the Strength Clan for opposing the Nine Stars Hall. The chapter left Tang Hao unaware that Xiao Wu was being taken after him and the Strength Clan reeling from its losses.

• Titan regained consciousness, heard Tai Nuo's account, and roared in humiliation.

Tang Hao attacked Nine Stars Hall, intending to kill Yang Wudi and Dugu Bo for harming his son, but Rhadamanthus intervened. Their battle began with Rhadamanthus overpowering Tang Hao’s Divine Slaughter’s Domain.

Ning Fengzhi confronted Aiacos and the Nine Stars Hall over the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect’s earlier actions, then realized his side could not win a fight. He agreed to pay four Soul Bones over fifty thousand years old to settle the dispute, though the Nine Stars Hall’s response remained pending.

• Aiacos demanded four such Soul Bones, and Ning Fengzhi gritted his teeth and agreed.

Tang Hao escaped the Nine Stars Hall’s attack but was gravely injured, so he went with Tang Yuehua to seek medicine from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Ning Fengzhi weighed whether helping him was worth the risk of angering the Nine Stars Hall.

• Tang Yuehua asked Ning Fengzhi for precious medicine to treat Tang Hao’s internal injuries and offered the sect twenty percent of Moonlight Pavilion’s annual income.
• Ning Fengzhi considered the offer but worried that aiding Tang Hao would provoke the Nine Stars Hall, whose Titled Douluo had injured him.

Ning Fengzhi chose to help Tang Hao recover, reasoning that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect needed to avoid becoming subordinate to Nine Stars Hall while keeping its ties to the Clear Sky Sect.
