Xiling Xiao Yao firmly told Xiang Liu that no matter how he changed his appearance, she would always be able to recognize him without fail. When she expressed her desire to have the Gu poison removed, Xiang Liu regretfully admitted that he was powerless to help.
Faced with Xiao Yao’s confusion, Xiang Liu explained that it was Tushan Jing who had asked him to try and remove the poison, offering extremely tempting conditions, but he truly had no means to resolve it. Upon hearing this, Xiao Yao, surprised, asked if Tushan Jing was present, and Xiang Liu informed her that he was standing right behind her. Xiao Yao turned around and indeed saw Tushan Jing slowly walking toward her.
Then, Xiang Liu left alone, leaving Xiao Yao and Tushan Jing together. Xiao Yao gently comforted Tushan Jing, telling him not to worry too much about the Gu poison and that she believed there would eventually be a solution—time would bring a turning point. Tushan Jing smiled and nodded. The two of them sat side by side on the bridge, quietly enjoying the night view. However, this peaceful moment did not last long.
In the distance, Xiyan Cang Xuan witnessed the scene and was filled with jealousy. He stepped forward and interrupted them, claiming he had come to take Xiao Yao home. Xiao Yao bid farewell to Tushan Jing and left with Xiyan Cang Xuan. Back home, Xiling Xiao Yao remained cold toward Xiyan Cang Xuan. Outside, heavy rain poured down.
She asked about the truce, and Xiyan Cang Xuan explained that because it was the rainy season, continuing the war might lead to flood disasters, so a temporary ceasefire was declared. Afterward, he urged Xiao Yao to rest early and prepared to leave. Xiao Yao called out to him and handed him an umbrella. Cang Xuan accepted it and walked into the rain with a smile, gradually disappearing from sight.
—The King of Haoling's health deteriorated by the day, yet he still insisted on personally handling the burdensome state affairs. Haoling Yi, deeply moved by her father’s efforts, wished to assist him, but she was at a loss faced with the piles of memorials on the desk, which left her feeling guilty and frustrated. Seeing this, the King of Haoling gently comforted his daughter, telling her that just having her by his side was his greatest solace.
Looking at her father's increasingly graying hair, Haoling Yi felt even more sorrowful and could not help but use magic to try to restore his black hair. In the deep of night, she stayed up late studying military strategies diligently, hoping to help ease her father's burdens. Meanwhile, Xiyan had suffered a recent defeat in battle, and Xiyan Cang Xuan, worried that his friend Chishui Fenglong would be affected, decided to go to the military camp to support him.
After receiving his grandfather’s permission, Cang Xuan informed Xiling Xiao Yao of his plan. Although Xiao Yao was concerned about the danger of the trip, she also wanted to accompany him, but she was worried that Haoling might not welcome her. To ease her concerns, Cang Xuan invited Tushan Jing to join them. Tushan Jing readily agreed, and Xiao Yao was then reassured and joined the journey.
Upon entering the city, Xiling Xiao Yao saw a scene of peace and harmony, which puzzled her. Tushan Jing explained that this was all due to Xiyan Cang Xuan’s strict military discipline. He emphasized that disturbing the civilians was strictly prohibited and violators would be severely punished. Measures were also actively taken to build embankments and dredge rivers to improve people’s lives.
Therefore, although there were conflicts between Haoling and Xiyan, during this period of peace, Haoling's people appreciated Cang Xuan’s efforts and found it difficult to harbor resentment. After learning this, Xiling Xiao Yao’s view of Xiyan Cang Xuan changed significantly. Cang Xuan sincerely shared his ambitions with her, emphasizing that he was simply following the tide of the times, aiming to unify the Great Wilderness for the benefit of all.
He acknowledged that war was inevitable and brought pain and sacrifice, but he had done everything in his power to minimize innocent casualties. Xiao Yao nodded in understanding and agreement. At night, with careful arrangements by Tushan Jing and Cang Xuan, Xiao Yao had an enjoyable evening, experiencing the unique joy of camping. Later, the three went to visit Chishui Fenglong. Xiao Yao felt uneasy, fearing that Fenglong might resent her for the broken engagement.
However, Fenglong treated her with understanding and acceptance, as if nothing had changed, which greatly relieved her. As the four conversed, a soldier rushed in with news that Xiyan's army had suffered yet another defeat—its fourth. Chishui Fenglong felt deep guilt and self-blame. But with Cang Xuan’s encouragement, he quickly regained his confidence and resolved to fight again. —On the other hand, in Haoling, the issue of appointing a crown prince sparked heated debate among the court ministers.
Some suggested making Haoling Yi the heir, while others opposed it, claiming she was too willful for such a responsibility. There were also proposals to select a suitable candidate from among the royal nephews. These disputes only further exhausted the already ailing King of Haoling, who coughed incessantly. Upon hearing this, Haoling Yi was filled with guilt and anger. She decided to take action to teach a lesson to the ministers who dared to meddle in royal affairs.
In fact, it was Tushan Jing who had proposed abandoning Xiyan Mountain in favor of attacking Chenrong Mountain, though Cang Xuan was unaware of this and mistakenly believed it to be Chishui Fenglong’s strategy. As a result, Fenglong’s status in the army was elevated. Tushan Jing confided in Fenglong, saying he had no desire for power and only wished to be with Xiao Yao. He admitted he owed Fenglong and hoped for his sincere blessing.
Fenglong said he needed time to think it over. Meanwhile, Haoling Yi recklessly charged into the Xiyan military camp, determined to punish the person who had betrayed her.
