Sang Ying entered the Qishan Secret Realm seeking an ice lotus to complete her spirit root, survived Su Fuyun's betrayal, and obtained Immortal Lord Fusheng’s inheritance. After returning to the sect, she secured punishment for Su Fuyun and permission to leave Crimson Snow Peak upon reaching the Golden Core Realm, then planned further training.
Sang Ying rescued the abducted women of Listening Willow Village, exposed Luo Fengyuan’s dealings with demons, and helped stop a flood from destroying White Foothill City. At the Plain Robe Pavilion, she learned that Sect Leader Meng had known her mother and that her parents disappeared while seeking medicine for her.
Sang Ying sought a cure for her cold poison, traveled to Gleaming Gold Island, and became a White Dragon hatchling in a new life as Bai Qinglong. After four hundred years on the Gods and Devils Battlefield, she returned to find the Black Dragon Clan had broken her engagement and accepted a challenge tied to the coming Dragon Clan Grand Competition.
Sang Ying won the Jialan City competition, claimed Dragon Abyss, and helped stop Heaven Swallower by sacrificing herself to the sealing formation. She awoke in the secret realm with Fang Chi and Hai Tingzhou, learned of Bai Qinglong’s legacy, and ended the stretch confronting Zhao San’s group with Gu Shu’s help.
Sang Ying was framed by Su Fuyun and condemned by the Flowing Light Sword Sect, but escaped after her Golden Core was shattered and fell into the forbidden grounds. There she bargained with the imprisoned Jiang Zhuoxue to regain a way to cultivate, while her parents sought her and Fan Nanjun faced pressure in the Devil Realm.
Sang Ying reached the Immortal Spirit Realm, rose swiftly in cultivation and renown, and traveled to Yao Zhou with Jiang Zhuoxue. At the Gong Household’s Dragon-Slaying Grand Assembly, she tried to free Cang Lian and left with Jimo Qing after he publicly claimed her as his little sister.
Sang Ying joined the Jimo Household, uncovered a conspiracy behind disappearances and a hidden Spirit Stone mine, and freed the captives there. As the plot against Rizhao City came to light, the Jimo leaders prepared to march on Eternal Night City and asked Sang Ying to help defend the city.
Sang Ying helped the Jimo Household repel Feng Ji’s siege, then left for Ten Thousand Daos Born to take its entrance test. The arc ended with her entering the Thousandfold Formation as the Gu cultivator wagered on her success.
Sang Ying won first place in Ten Thousand Daos Born’s entrance trial, chose Jiulian as her master, and helped inspire the sect’s disciples to prepare for the inter-sect competition. At the competition, she defeated Su Fuyun despite Elder Luo’s attempt to award the match to Mara Gate, and Ten Thousand Daos Born secured many Foundation Establishment final spots.
Sang Ying led Ten Thousand Daos Born to victory at the Grand Sect Competition after exposing the Mara Gate’s schemes on White Duckweed Island. The arc ended with Rong Ji accusing her of causing Chi Yan’s death and attacking her at the Azure Feather Sect.
After exposing Chi Yan’s demonic corruption, Sang Ying left Ten Thousand Daos Born under a hidden identity and reunited with old companions in the northern snowfields. She entered Delusion-Breaking City to reclaim Jiang Zhuoxue’s lost belongings and uncovered the Gong Household’s use of a jade pearl that drained vitality from the Northern Snowfield.
Sang Ying returned to Ten Thousand Daos Born, then joined an expedition to the Black Tortoise Realm, where she helped fight the beast tide and pressed Fu Shuangjiang to investigate its cause. The group entered the Hidden Moon Forest, where Sang Ying followed a red thread toward a presence connected to the rusted sword marked “sever.”
Sang Ying freed the Hidden Moon Forest and exposed Su Fuyun’s betrayal, then helped Jiang Zhuoxue recover his dragon scales and teeth. When the Limitless Sect tried to capture Jiang Zhuoxue, Sang Ying stayed behind with him as allies and reinforcements headed back to the sect.
Sang Ying led an alliance to rescue Jiang Zhuoxue, but he sent her ten thousand years into the past to uncover his history. She found and helped his younger self escape Corpse Soul City, and the two set out together with their way back to the present still unknown.
Sang Ying and her companions cleared the Severed Vitality Mystic Realm, then became entangled in the rivalry between the Yin Mountain Sect and the Moonless Household. After exposing and surviving an assassination attempt, Sang Ying led the Yin Mountain Sect to a crushing victory in the first contest.
Sang Ying helped the Yin Mountain Sect win the contest for control of Moonless City while exposing Wuyue Qing’s attempt to kill her and Jiang Zhuoxue. Sang Ying left the mystic realm as Jiang Zhuoxue stayed behind, and the Yin Mountain Sect’s victory was confirmed.
Sang Ying survived her Nascent Soul tribulation, confronted the Limitless Sect, and returned to the Twin Orchid Realm to fight Fusheng’s invasion. After Fusheng captured and disguised her as Xiao Yao, her allies searched for a way to rescue her while Fusheng’s intentions remained unclear.
Sang Ying escaped Fusheng’s captivity as the Flowing Light Sword Sect lured the Devil Race into a devastating trap. After the sect survived and Gu Huaiwei died, the Saintess rescued Fan Nanjun and continued her conflict with Sang Ying.
Sang Ying and Jiang Zhuoxue traveled to the Hidden Nether Realm to retrieve treasures and became involved in the Min Household’s curse and the fate of Wuming. They cured Min Renjie, uncovered a prophecy about Sang Ying, and helped Wuming fuse with dragon blood as he set out to avenge his family.
Sang Ying and her companions uncovered the Sun-Chasing Hall’s living-corpse plot and fought Wuyue Sha as his methods threatened Moonless City. They freed the trapped souls and restored the cursed residents, then brought Wuyue Sha back to the city, where Liu Chengzhi recognized him as Wuyue Jizong.
