After Lu Miaomiao received a pink war hammer, Lu Qing'an learned that the academy head had returned and set off for the academy with the children.

• Lu Qing'an received word from Lu Qingxu that the academy head had returned, then decided to accompany the children to the academy.

Lu Qing'an visited Liu Xiyue to investigate the iron ball that had greatly increased Liu Xiyue's strength. After Liu Xiyue revealed that the Divine Crystal came from the Blood Phoenix Sect, he offered to share the location of another one.

• Lu Qing'an, Xue Tianfei, and Xiao Qingyi met Liu Xiyue at his residence, where Xiao Qingyi remarked on Liu Xiyue's increased strength.

• Liu Xiyue explained that an ominous Earth Soul Flame and a fast, unidentified creature had prevented the group from reaching the crystals.
• Lu Qing'an entered the cavern alone and saw the Divergent Flame and the enormous Divine Crystal.

Lu Qing'an seized the Earth Soul Flame’s Divine Crystal and subdued the flame with the Immortal-Slaying Black Flame, while the unseen being remained hidden. As he approached the cavern’s largest crystal, Liu Xiyue warned the others that the hidden being was likely about to attack.

• Lu Qing'an searched the cavern and reasoned that the unseen being was powerful enough to keep Little Blackie and the mysterious organization from taking the Divine Crystals.
