The shadow approached Li Qingyue’s bed and was about to strike when Yin Tongzi, hidden inside the cabinet, suddenly opened the door and spoke, giving Li Qingyue a chance to react. Li Qingyue fought with the shadow, but because her spiritual power was weak, she was no match and took the opportunity to escape. She ran off to find Ningyan, who had turned into a divine tree to rest, but no matter how much she called, Ningyan wouldn’t wake up.
Meanwhile, Fan Jiaojiao came looking for Fan Ling Er, worried that his daughter might act impulsively and cause trouble for Li Qingyue. He tried to persuade her to let go of personal feelings and consider the bigger picture. Fan Ling Er didn’t say much, just brushed him off. Seeing his daughter acting so nonchalant, Fan Jiaojiao thought nothing had happened.
But as he was leaving, he noticed her shadow was missing and realized she had used the Shadow Killing Technique to try to assassinate Li Qingyue. He immediately rushed to stop it. Li Qingyue was forced to the edge of a cliff by the shadow. Caught off guard, she fell. Bai Jiusi sensed Li Qingyue was in danger. Just before she hit the bottom, a vine caught her. However, a white flood dragon appeared in the lake below.
Li Qingyue panicked, not knowing what to do. Bai Jiusi arrived in time and forced the dragon back into the lake. Bai Jiusi asked Li Qingyue why she was at the bottom of the lake. Li Qingyue told him she had been attacked, but Bai Jiusi didn’t believe her, thinking she had ulterior motives. He even considered killing her, but when he saw that she wasn’t lying, he couldn't bear to do it. Watching her fall unconscious, he withdrew.
Zhang Suan, constantly worried that Li Qingyue might be bullied in the heavens, had been training hard, determined to ascend and find her. His master, seeing his dedication, told him that the Chiyang Fruit was about to mature. It could not only heal Zhang Suan’s damaged Qi Sea but also help him ascend. However, many people would fight over it. Zhang Suan made up his mind to seize it and asked about the origin of the Heavenly Lord Dacheng.
He also inquired about a former ancient god named Divine Lord Siling, who could rival Bai Jiusi and used to live in the Canglei Palace, the first place Li Qingyue had stayed after arriving in the Nine Heavens. It was Bai Jiusi who led a group to kill Divine Lord Siling and even took control of her white snake mount. Li Qingyue remained unconscious. Bai Jiusi investigated the attempted assassination, but no one had seen any shadow.
Because of her cultivation technique, Ningyan had lost all five senses and was unaware of what had happened. Fan Jiaojiao and Fan Ling Er were also present, listening to Cang Tu’s report. Fan Ling Er deliberately misled them, claiming Li Qingyue had made an excuse to approach the Cold Pool. Fan Jiaojiao, afraid his daughter would get into trouble and expose the truth, urged her to either leave or confess and apologize.
Li Qingyue finally woke up, much to Ningyan’s joy. The first thing Li Qingyue asked was whether Bai Jiusi had visited her. Upon learning he hadn’t, she began to question the true reason Bai Jiusi had married her. She even asked Ningyan about the origins of the white snake in the Cold Pool. But Ningyan only knew the Cold Pool was a forbidden area and had no knowledge of the snake.
Meanwhile, Bai Jiusi learned that the seal of Hell Ruins had weakened again and rushed off to reinforce it. Li Qingyue wanted to go out but discovered that Bai Jiusi had ordered the Grand Marshal and Great General to guard her courtyard, preventing her from coming and going freely. So she decided to learn magic from Ningyan. Bai Jiusi went to find Yin Tongzi and finally learned the truth about what had happened that night.
Realizing he had wrongly accused Li Qingyue, Bai Jiusi immediately ordered a kitchen to be built for her. Li Qingyue also heard from Yin Tongzi that Bai Jiusi had been secretly visiting her. Knowing Bai Jiusi truly cared for her, their relationship deepened once again. She also unexpectedly found out that the white snake at the bottom of the Cold Pool was going to be refined the next day.
