Yu Sifeng's final test was himself. Facing the person before him, he started to fight. Even if he stabbed the opposite body, he remained unharmed. Yu Sifeng desperately resisted himself, but no matter how he harmed the other party, it only backfired. The final level of the Thirteen Precepts was right before him. Yu Sifeng thought of Chu Xuanji and did his best to overcome everything, including the Yu Sifeng who had been tempting him to give up.

Subsequently, the Master of Lize Palace and the Deputy Palace Master appeared before Yu Sifeng, asking him to wear the Lover's Curse Mask before he could leave. Once this Lover's Curse Mask was worn, one had to be emotionless and loveless. Each time one was hurt by love, the curse would take root in the body, and one would die after three times. Yu Sifeng was unwilling to become a cold, emotionless person, living like a walking dead.

Why couldn't Lize Palace be as affectionate and benevolent as other sects? Yu Sifeng hesitated to put it on, and the Master and Deputy Master's earnest persuasion was useless. Yu Sifeng always believed that since the Thirteen Precepts Purgatory Tower could be entered, it could naturally be exited. He wanted to find his own way out. For many days, Chu Xuanji's cultivation had made no progress because she could not comprehend her power due to her incomplete six senses.

Chu Xuanji originally wanted to find a way to improve her cultivation in the bookshelf, but accidentally discovered a book about the Wan Jie Ba Huang Jing. However, Hao Chen did not want Chu Xuanji to know too much, so he forcibly confiscated the book and punished Chu Xuanji by making her cut down all the bamboo.

When Chu Xuanji went to sleep in the evening, Hao Chen wanted to help her erase the memories about the Wan Jie Ba Huang Jing, but in the mortal realm, he could not use his magic. This lifetime was Chu Xuanji's last tribulation. If she passed it safely, she could return to the place where she belonged with Hao Chen.

The next day, Hao Chen began to brainwash Chu Xuanji, telling her that the Wan Jie Ba Huang Jing would disturb people's minds, and anyone who proposed taking her to find it had ill intentions. He also comforted Chu Xuanji, saying that although she lacked six senses, she could smell demonic aura and capture the presence of demonic creatures, destined to possess the talent for subduing demons and eradicating evil.

Chu Xuanji wholeheartedly believed what Hao Chen said without any doubt. Today was Chu Xuanji's birthday. Hao Chen prepared a lot of delicious food for Chu Xuanji. Chu Xuanji thought about sending blessings to Yu Sifeng, but Hao Chen still refused to return the bell to Chu Xuanji. Yu Sifeng had been trapped in the Thirteen Precepts for a year. His body was tired and weak.

Remembering that today was Chu Xuanji's birthday, Yu Sifeng remotely wished Chu Xuanji happiness and freedom. Chu Xuanji saw Hao Chen coldly refuse Senior Sister Duanqing's farewell, feeling that Senior Brother Hao Chen was too heartless for the sake of cultivation, but was instead lectured by Hao Chen that cultivation should be this way. While Hao Chen was getting wine to celebrate her birthday, Chu Xuanji found the bell and sent blessings to Yu Sifeng.

However, just as she called out Yu Sifeng's name twice, Hao Chen appeared. Chu Xuanji had no choice but to put it down. Hao Chen spoke to Chu Xuanji about love, but Chu Xuanji did not understand. She also loudly declared that she liked Xiao Liuzi (Little Six), and saved many fruits to share with him. Yu Sifeng heard Chu Xuanji's words through the bell and felt depressed and hurt.

The Master of Lize Palace seized the opportunity to provoke Yu Sifeng, saying that Chu Xuanji was not worth Yu Sifeng's desperate efforts, and also threatening Yu Sifeng with Liu Yihuan's life, suggesting that Yu Sifeng had better give up this illusory love. Yu Sifeng's beautiful memories with Chu Xuanji constantly surfaced, but the uncertain feelings and Liu Yihuan's life were presented before him, forcing Yu Sifeng to make a choice. Yu Sifeng finally chose the Loveless Mask.

Past feelings and memories of Chu Xuanji could only be set aside. Upon wearing the mask, the door to the Thirteen Precepts naturally opened, and Yu Sifeng also rescued Liu Yihuan in time. Yu Sifeng outwardly had let go of his feelings, but Liu Yihuan did not successfully save his daughter. He saw his daughter disappear before his eyes.

He also heard that there was an Eye of Heaven in the heavenly realm that could see everything in the world, so he could only search for the Eye of Heaven despite the difficulties to learn his daughter's whereabouts. Wu Tong went into a frenzy. The five major sects continuously pursued him but could not apprehend him. Instead, he was taken away by the Tianxu Hall.

The Tianxu Hall's purpose was clear; they obviously wanted to use Wu Tong to deal with the five major sects. In the blink of an eye, four years had passed. Chu Xuanji had been up the mountain for a long time, causing Chu Linglong to worry every day. But with Xiao Liuzi by her side, Chu Linglong and Xiao Liuzi still bickered incessantly like when they were children.

Chu Xuanji had been in Xuyang Peak for four years and had completed her studies, ready to return home. Hengyang repeatedly reminded Chu Xuanji to always remember the mission of Xuyang Peak, to guard the secret realm for life, even at the cost of her life. Chu Xuanji calmly made the promise. As Chu Xuanji descended the mountain, she happened to encounter the Shaoyang Sect selecting new disciples. Among the new female disciples, one was pestering Xiao Liuzi.

Chu Linglong was angry with Xiao Liuzi because of this. As soon as Chu Xuanji arrived, she started fighting with that female disciple. It turned out that Chu Xuanji instantly recognized her as a demon and forced the demon to reveal its true form. Chu Lei, wanting to see his daughter's accomplishments over the past few years, let her face it alone. Chu Xuanji quickly dealt with the demonic creature. Everyone was happy for Chu Xuanji.

Chu Linglong and Chu Xuanji reunited and happily ate together. This time, a demon had infiltrated the Shaoyang Sect, forcing Chu Lei to take the investigation of the Shaoyang disciples' identities seriously. Also, the Tianxu Hall had been investigated for many years without any flaws. After all, the ancestors had wiped out almost all demons back then.

However, there was an ancient divine prophecy left for the ancestors, stating that a calamity would occur within this half-Jiazi period (a cycle of sixty years). Now twenty years had passed, leaving only ten years. Chu Lei could only instruct everyone not to relax and must notify other sects to be vigilant. Chu Xuanji and Chu Linglong were both twenty years old and could go down the mountain for training to broaden their horizons.

At this time, Chu Xuanji had just gotten her bell back and began contacting Yu Sifeng, but Yu Sifeng had already let go of his feelings and thus did not hear Chu Xuanji's call. Meanwhile, Liu Yihuan unexpectedly found the Eye of Heaven and slowly began searching for his daughter's whereabouts.

However, seeing Yu Sifeng again and seeing the Lover's Curse Mask on his face, he felt ashamed towards Yu Sifeng and promised to do his best to find a way to remove the Lover's Curse.
