The Heavenly Emperor felt some guilt towards the Heavenly Empress over the years and promised to pass the imperial throne to Xu Feng. Thinking of his relationship with Tu Yao as husband and wife, he stated that he would spare the Heavenly Empress's life, as the Heavenly Empress's dignity was also the Heavenly Emperor's dignity. Sui He's abilities and resources were not enough to rival the Bird Tribe elder Yin Que.
After the Heavenly Empress lost power, Sui He's position in the Bird Tribe was precarious. The Bird Tribe leaders did not obey Sui He's management, and Yin Que even openly met with people from the Demon Realm, pressuring the Heavenly Emperor, attempting to renegotiate terms with the Heavenly Realm. The Heavenly Emperor summoned Xu Feng, stating that he intended to pass the throne to Xu Feng and hoped he would marry Sui He to consolidate the Bird Tribe's power.
The Heavenly Emperor knew Xu Feng liked Jin Mi and said that a person in a high position must make choices; Jin Mi was the part he needed to give up. Xu Feng naturally disagreed, and the Heavenly Emperor was furious upon seeing this. Run Yu also arrived at the great hall, scolding Xu Feng for being too insensible and trying to break up his and Jin Mi's marriage. Xu Feng asked the Heavenly Emperor to cancel their engagement.
The Heavenly Emperor scolded Xu Feng for being overly arrogant and coveting his elder brother's wife. Using this, he removed Xu Feng's military authority and ordered him to hand over the Chi Xiao Sword. Liu Ying came to the hall to find Mu Ci, only to discover he had left a note and disappeared.
She anxiously searched everywhere for Mu Ci, angry that he left without saying goodbye again, and vowed to find him even if she had to turn the Six Realms upside down. Liu Ying had been tormenting herself, which pained King Biancheng deeply. He found Liu Ying and advised her to rest for a while. During their argument, the seal that Liao Yuanjun once entrusted to Liu Ying fell out.
King Biancheng recognized it at a glance as the personal seal of the Demon Realm elder Qingcheng Wang. Liu Ying thought that Qingcheng Wang was well-informed and perhaps she could use this seal to find a way to save Mu Ci. Sui He requested the Heavenly Emperor to send troops to the Bird Tribe to restore order, but Run Yu disagreed with the Heavenly Emperor sending troops there.
He stated that the Bird Tribe was not truly chaotic at the moment; it only required the Heavenly Emperor to issue a decree to appease them, select a special envoy, lead a division of Heavenly Soldiers personally to Yi Miao Continent for detailed investigation, and strictly punish the person behind the scenes. The Heavenly Emperor felt Run Yu's words were reasonable after listening, so he agreed to Run Yu's suggestion.
Run Yu began to plot meticulously to gain the Heavenly Emperor's appreciation. He often intentionally or unintentionally showed himself off in front of the Heavenly Emperor and also talked about their childhood past with the Heavenly Emperor. The Heavenly Emperor greatly appreciated Run Yu and also said that his previous behavior was only because Tu Yao had too many eyes and ears; he often neglected Run Yu to protect him.
The Heavenly Emperor saw that Run Yu had courage and strategy and was also very steady. In contrast, Xu Feng had been defiant and rebellious recently, which was truly disappointing. Therefore, the Heavenly Emperor decided to hand over the troops of the five directional gates, which Xu Feng was in charge of, to Run Yu to lead. Sui He came to Visha Prison to find Tu Yao to discuss countermeasures. Tu Yao transferred her lifelong cultivation to Sui He.
With the blessing of Glazed Karmic Fire, Sui He also had enough strength to revitalize the Bird Tribe. Run Yu played Go with The Water Immortal. Run Yu had a sure victory throughout the game, proceeding step by step, and received The Water Immortal's excessive praise. While the two were talking, Xu Feng also came to find The Water Immortal, wanting to apologize to The Water Immortal and Jin Mi on behalf of Tu Yao.
The Water Immortal refused Xu Feng's request to see Jin Mi, and Run Yu also chimed in, telling Xu Feng to hurry back. On his way back to the palace, Xu Feng unexpectedly encountered Jin Mi, but Jin Mi still kept him at a distance. Xu Feng said now that his military authority had been curtailed, his mother was in prison, and his father was forcing him to marry someone else.
If Jin Mi wavered again, he really wouldn't be able to hold on. Jin Mi said although she won't hate Xu Feng, it is impossible for them to be together. Xu Feng knew that the Heavenly Empress was Jin Mi's mother's killer, and said he is not qualified to stand by her side now, asking her if she really wants to marry Run Yu.
Jin Mi stated that as long as Run Yu and The Water Immortal are happy, she will be fine. Xu Feng approached Jin Mi step by step. Jin Mi's heart began to ache intensely again. She also told Xu Feng that whenever he gets close to her, her heart aches strangely.
