The Second Prince transformed Shao Xin into snake form and quietly brought her back to the lotus pond in the Heavenly Palace, placing her in his sleeve. The Second Prince promised Shao Xin that if she gave him a little more time, he would let her stand before the assembled deities openly and accept their worship. Shao Xin understood the Second Prince's difficulties.

The Third Prince hurriedly arrived and saw that the Second Prince had truly brought Bai Qian's maidservant back to the Heavenly Palace. The Third Prince urgently dissuaded the Second Prince, telling him to quickly send this little Bashe snake back to Bai Qian.

The Third Prince earnestly persuaded him, saying, "Since the great war, the generals of the divine Tribes have become increasingly disobedient to the Heavenly Monarch, and intermarrying with the Green Hills was also to consolidate the Heavenly Monarch's authority. But now, with Second Brother doing this, won't it make everyone in the world mock Empress Bai Qian, saying she's not even as good as a little Bashe snake?"

But the infatuated Second Prince was completely unmoved, insisting on breaking off the engagement with Bai Qian and taking Shao Xin as his consort. The Heavenly Monarch returned to his palace, and the Second Prince knelt before the Heavenly Monarch, begging for the engagement to be broken off so he could marry Shao Xin. In his fury, the Heavenly Monarch struck Sang Ji.

Sang Ji tearfully complained that Bai Qian of Green Hills did not value this union, and that he and Shao Xin were truly in love, only asking that the Heavenly Monarch would grant his request. The Heavenly Monarch ordered someone to bring Shao Xin to the main hall. Shao Xin, in order to protect Sang Ji, stated directly that she did not know Sang Ji.

In order to make the Second Prince give up on this idea, the Heavenly Monarch locked Shao Xin in the Demon Suppressing Pagoda and told Sang Ji that this union could not possibly be canceled. He disregarded Sang Ji's pleas and left indifferently. The Heavenly Monarch walked to the entrance of the main hall and just happened to run into Ye Hua, who had been there for a long time.

The Heavenly Monarch told Ye Hua that he was destined to be the Heavenly Monarch, carrying the heavy responsibility of governing the four seas and eight wildernesses. He could have many women in this Heavenly Palace, but he could not have a woman who would make him abandon his principles. Ye Hua knew that the Heavenly Monarch placed great hopes on him, never questioned the Heavenly Monarch's teachings, and this time was no different.

Si Ming came to report to the Heavenly Monarch about the Jinni beast causing trouble in the mortal realm. The Heavenly Monarch ordered Ye Hua to go to the mortal realm to eliminate the Jinni beast, so as to establish his prestige for his future rule over the four seas and eight wildernesses. After the Heavenly Monarch left, Si Ming specifically told Ye Hua that when eliminating the Jinni beast, he absolutely must not affect the fate of the mortals.

If an immortal gets involved with mortals, it will upset the order of destiny, which might be detrimental to Ye Hua. Ye Hua returned to his palace. In his dream, he recalled when he was twenty thousand years old and begged the Heavenly Monarch to see his mother. At that time, the Heavenly Monarch, in order to train Ye Hua to be the future Heavenly Monarch, did not allow Ye Hua to see his mother.

Finally, under Ye Hua's repeated pleas, the Heavenly Monarch promised that as long as he underwent trials and became a High Immortal when he was twenty thousand years old, he would be allowed to see his mother. Heavenly thunder rolled intensely, and all the deities were anxious for Ye Hua. The twenty-thousand-year-old Ye Hua showed no fear before the heavenly thunder. Three bolts of heavenly thunder struck Ye Hua, each inflicting severe injuries.

Ye Hua was covered in wounds and bloodstains and supported himself as he went before the Heavenly Monarch. The Heavenly Monarch saw how resolute Ye Hua was and agreed to Ye Hua's request to see his mother. Since Ye Hua was born, the Heavenly Monarch had raised him by his side. For twenty thousand years, High Goddess Le Xu had never seen Ye Hua.

Now meeting again, she didn't expect Ye Hua to be covered in bloodstains and wounds from head to toe. High Goddess Le Xu's heart ached for her son. She cried and said she would rather Ye Hua be an ordinary Water God than see him suffer so much.

The First Prince saw High Goddess Le Xu's sorrowful state nearby and could only comfort High Goddess Le Xu by saying that Ye Hua was destined to become the Heavenly Monarch in the future. In his daze, the scene in his dream somehow changed to the appearance of Kunlun Void. A white-robed youth was guarding High God Mo Yuan's immortal body. That back view somehow made him so sad.

Ye Hua woke up, and Su Jin was already waiting by his side, ready to help him change clothes. Su Jin recounted the matter of the Second Prince and the little Bashe snake to Ye Hua. Ye Hua said nothing. Sang Ji wanted to force his way into the Demon Suppressing Pagoda, hearing Shao Xin struggling inside. Shao Xin's immortal cultivation was not high to begin with, trapped in the Demon Suppressing Pagoda.

If she wasn't rescued soon, Shao Xin would likely lose her life in a few days. Sang Ji had no other choice and could only go before the Heavenly Monarch again to beg for Shao Xin's release. However much Sang Ji begged, even threatening death, the Heavenly Monarch showed no sign of softening.

The Heavenly Monarch, in front of Ye Hua, reprimanded Sang Ji, asking how he could be so oblivious to what was important for the sake of a woman. The Fox Emperor came to Zhe Yan's place, complaining that the divine Tribes had caused Bai Qian to completely lose face. Zhe Yan and the Fox Emperor decided to go before the Heavenly Monarch together, not only to break off the engagement but also to make the divine Tribes apologize to them.

Bai Qian slept muddle-headedly in the peach blossom forest for over five days. Bai Zhen came to wake Bai Qian. Bai Zhen thought Bai Qian might be depressed because of Sang Ji breaking off the engagement. Bai Qian said with a smile that she had only met Sang Ji once and had no feelings whatsoever, so how could she be distressed because of the broken engagement? Bai Zhen said today was Bai Qian's birthday.

Only then did Bai Qian remember that she had been so muddle-headed she forgot her own birthday. She asked Bai Zhen why he hadn't seen Bai Fengjiu. Bai Zhen said with a smile that Bai Fengjiu had followed her aunt since childhood and would definitely rush back. Bai Fengjiu wanted to take a shortcut back to Green Hills but unexpectedly stumbled into the Wing Tribe's bamboo forest and encountered a ferocious Jinni beast.

Bai Fengjiu's magic was no match, and she fled in panic. At the critical moment, fortunately, Dong Hua Divine Monarch stepped in to help, repelling the Jinni beast. Bai Fengjiu had seen Dong Hua Divine Monarch in Zhe Yan's ancient texts before, but seeing him in person now, she was very shocked in her heart. Bai Fengjiu had been taught by Bai Qian since childhood that one must repay kindness. Bai Fengjiu followed Dong Hua to repay his kindness.

Dong Hua ignored Bai Fengjiu and came all the way to the place where Qing Cang was sealed. It turned out Dong Hua had recently detected unusual activity from the Donghuang Bell, fearing Qing Cang might awaken.

He found a minor land deity nearby, gave him a magical bell, ordering him to pay close attention to the Donghuang Bell's movements in the coming days, and to be sure to use the bell to notify him if there was any unusual activity. Just as Bai Fengjiu was about to speak to Dong Hua, Dong Hua coldly refused and returned to the Heavenly Palace.

Bai Fengjiu looked at Dong Hua's such cold back view but did not feel disappointed in her heart. Yan Zhi came to the riverside to visit her father. Since Qing Cang was sealed, she hadn't been able to find her eldest brother Liyuan. Her second brother Li Jing had taken over the position of Winged Monarch but had always resented Qing Cang for killing his birth mother and had never come to visit Qing Cang. Yan Zhi felt deeply lonely.

At this moment, Qing Cang, who was sealed inside the Donghuang Bell, slowly opened his eyes. In the Heavenly Palace, the Third Prince told Ye Hua that regarding this matter with Green Hills, only Ye Hua could appease Green Hills. Ye Hua understood Third Uncle's meaning; this was asking him to marry Bai Qian of Green Hills on behalf of his second uncle.

Third Uncle told Ye Hua that since he started handling governmental affairs, the four seas and eight wildernesses had all submitted to him. But even so, he still lacked a trial of love. Ye Hua didn't understand but didn't ask for details. Although Ye Hua seemed cold on the outside, he was not heartless. Since he could save his second uncle from trouble, what did it matter if there was one more person sleeping beside his bed?

Ye Hua agreed to Third Uncle's request. In the Heavenly Palace, the Fox Emperor and Zhe Yan hoped the Heavenly Monarch could cancel the marriage alliance between the divine Tribes and the Nine-Tailed White Fox Tribe. Unexpectedly, the Heavenly Monarch strongly opposed and promised that the divine Tribes would certainly give the Nine-Tailed White Fox Tribe an explanation.
