Li Yang and Li Yaowan offered the Marquis of Wind Pavilion a stake in a company that would cultivate and sell Blue Crystal Soil Star Cores, while revealing the immense value of Li Yang’s discoveries. Before the Marquis could decide, Huaxia Star Wielders invaded the Blue Crystal Realm Domain, trapping its inhabitants by sealing the only passage.

• Li Yang explained that Blue Crystal Soil could produce ice-element Star Cores, and the Marquis of Wind Pavilion realized it might eventually grow cores of even higher grades.

• The Marquis of Wind Pavilion accused Wang Gexiao of targeting the Blue Crystal Realm Domain to trap Li Yang and the Nature Department, then challenged the Wang family to prove his innocence with a mental probe.

At the Star Nexus Pavilion, Lu Yanbie accused the Marquis of Mirror Bamboo of causing the Divine Descent and offered to undergo a mental probe, prompting Wang Gexiao to volunteer instead. Wang Gexiao arranged to delay the probe for a day while agreeing to let the Marquis of Wind Pavilion take control of the Wang Family estate’s protection rights, leaving the others unsure what he intended.

• Lu Yanbie named the Marquis of Mirror Bamboo as the one behind the Divine Descent and offered to undergo a mental probe, while the Marquis promised to help repair his Star Soul.
• The Marquis of Mirror Bamboo opposed probing Wang Gexiao, but Wang Gexiao calmly agreed to submit to one, shocking the Wang Family members.

• Wang Gexiao asked for one day to hand over his duties as patriarch, promised not to leave Huaxia, and agreed to remain under guard.
• Wang Gexiao accepted the Marquis of Wind Pavilion’s demand to temporarily take control of the protection rights over the Wang Family estate, and asked his father to transfer them.

• Li Yang asked Lianxin about Heart Worms and urged him to tell her if he ever felt troubled; he bashfully replied that he felt only happy and delighted.
• Li Yang spent lifespan to test her Star Soul’s progress, then used Sister Longevity’s analysis to learn that the small Realm Domain’s Starlight concentration was insufficient to reduce the cost.

• Li Yang repeatedly teleported between the Blue Crystal Realm Domain and the small Realm Domain, harvesting plants and spending lifespan to raise her realm while her companions cultivated.

• After reaching Fifth Grade Sixth Stage, Li Yang found that Fourth Grade Realm Jade Peach Trees supplied little lifespan and that carving her Star Soul had become more difficult.
• Li Yaowan brought news about Fifth Grade Star Plants, but Li Yang said she needed a Fifth Grade Star Core most.

Li Yang chose the hostile Sand Fruit Realm Domain as her next target because its Fifth Grade seeds could eventually provide valuable high-grade plants.

• Li Yang explained that she needed to conserve merit points while preparing to raise Chen Ri and build a reliable planting brigade of her own.

• Li Yang wondered whether the Sand Fruit Clan had joined the Lost Space Society and planned to question Kong Shisan while posing as the Bone Peach Mother Tree.
• Li Yang asked about the Bone Peach Domain, and Li Yaowan sent her detailed intelligence from the Star Nexus Pavilion so she could maintain her disguise.

Li Yang learned how the Bone Peach Mother Tree had destroyed the Bone Peach Domain and considered whether reaching the Divine Venerable Realm required draining an entire domain. After reviewing the intelligence and preparing to pose as the Mother Tree’s ally, Li Yang entered the barren Bone Peach Domain to contact Kong Shisan.

• Li Yang learned that Kong Shisan had pushed the ambitious Bone Peach Mother Tree to devour her kind and drain the Bone Peach Domain, and that she sent Star Cores as tribute to the Lost Space Society.

• Li Yang reviewed the Star Nexus Pavilion’s intelligence, confirmed its account of the Bone Peach Mother Tree, and used the Teleportation Anchor to enter the Bone Peach Domain.
• Li Yang saw the barren domain and wondered whether advancing to the Divine Venerable Realm required consuming the life force of the Huaxia Realm Domain.

Li Yang used Kong Shisan’s suspicions about the missing 50 million Star Coins to maintain the Bone Peach Mother Tree’s cover and sought his help with the Blue Crystal Realm Domain. Kong Shisan instead urged her to seek resources elsewhere, and Li Yang decided to target the Sand Fruit Realm Domain, learning that its ruler was another Lost Space Society member.

• Li Yang contacted Kong Shisan about the missing tip, and her explanation helped him suspect Jiang Nianchu rather than the Bone Peach Mother Tree.
• Kong Shisan vowed to make the Single-Horn Domain pay and refused to send troops to the Blue Crystal Realm Domain or help locate the Huaxia Heavenly Palace.

• Li Yang claimed she had found the Sand Fruit Realm Domain and asked Kong Shisan about it.
• Kong Shisan revealed that the Sand Fruit King was Kong Shier’s Disciple and said he would not stop Li Yang from taking the domain if she could manage it.

Li Yang gained Kong Shisan’s advice on countering the Sand Fruit King’s Earth Escape Technique and planned to use a Teleportation Anchor to capture him. She then contacted the Sand Fruit King under the Bone Peach Mother Tree’s identity and implied Kong Shisan was interested in him, leaving the Sand Fruit King hopeful that he might escape Kong Shier’s neglect.

• Kong Shisan told Li Yang to mark the Sand Fruit King with a Teleportation Anchor so she could track and confront him after he used Earth Escape Technique, and promised to recommend her as a Lowest-Rank Wise One if she took his domain.
• Li Yang returned to the Huaxia Heavenly Palace through the Blue Crystal Realm Domain and showed Li Yaowan her conversation with Kong Shisan using Time Rewind.
• Li Yang and Li Yaowan planned for the Shen Family Army to pose as Bone Peach troops while Li Yang approached the Sand Fruit King in person and marked him.
• Li Yang messaged the Sand Fruit King, who initially refused her visit because his realm domain was impoverished.
• Li Yang told the Sand Fruit King that Kong Shisan was interested in him, and the Sand Fruit King interpreted the message as a possible offer to leave Kong Shier’s faction.

Li Yang manipulated the Sand Fruit King into agreeing to receive her in the Sand Fruit Realm Domain, then assembled Qing Teng and a disguised Huaxia squad to accompany her. The group prepared to depart, though Li Yang remained uncomfortable with being called the Bone Peach Mother Tree’s customary title, “Mother King.”

• Li Yang used a show of reluctance to make the Sand Fruit King more eager to host her, then announced she would visit immediately.
• Li Yang contacted Li Yaowan, who arranged for Qing Teng and her ten-person squad to accompany her with Bone Peach Clan Disguise Pills.
• The Sand Fruit King learned the party’s size and strength, felt reassured, and grew more interested in switching his allegiance to Kong Shisan.
• Qing Teng introduced her squad to Li Yang, and the members joked about calling her “grand-aunt” or “Mother King.”
• Li Yang told the squad to follow her without speaking so they would not need to address her as Mother King.
