Xiao Qing, with the help of her companions, continued to impersonate pilgrims at the White Emperor Temple in the mortal realm. She manipulated other worshippers into believing that prayers to the White Emperor were ineffective, causing them to flock to the Green Emperor's temple instead. This dramatically reduced the incense offerings at the White Emperor Temple.
As the spiritual essence of Kunlun Mountain is sustained by the incense and prayers from the mortal world, this significant decline in offerings caused the White Emperor to sense instability in Kunlun Mountain's barrier. At this opportune moment, Xu Xuan and Qi Xiao arrived at Kunlun Mountain once more, seeking the Kunlun Mirror to reinforce the water barrier that sealed the Jiaolong.
The White Emperor instructed Qi Xiao to warn Xiao Qing against further mischief, and both men agreed to do so. Meanwhile, Leng Ning attacked Die Man, inflicting a wound and infecting it with venom. She had mastered a vicious skill by capturing a thousand butterflies and combining butterfly wings poison with spider venom. Leng Ning declared that the moment Die Man detoxified, she would absorb her demonic power to greatly enhance her own.
Elsewhere, Xiao Qing and Bai Yaoyao sought the help of Li Gongfu, Xu Jiaorong's husband who worked for the yamen, to continue their disruptive activities at the White Emperor Temple. For several days, the temple received no incense. With the Kunlun Mountain barrier weakening due to the lack of mortal worship, the White Emperor resolved to personally visit the mortal realm to confront this "little demon."
Qi Xiao and Xu Xuan established a barrier to protect the seal at the Three Lakes of Moon. Qi Xiao imparted the method to open this barrier to Xiao Qing, instructing her to hide within it after causing trouble to avoid being targeted by Tao Tie again. This also served to protect the Three Lakes of Moon barrier itself. Bai Yaoyao, however, remained at the Apothecary House to continue her investigation into Leng Ning.
Qi Xiao and Xu Xuan waited at Kunlun Mountain for the White Emperor, who was preparing to descend to the mortal realm. Xu Xuan realized that Xiao Qing's antics had achieved their desired effect. He approached the White Emperor to apologize for Xiao Qing's disturbances, and the White Emperor granted his forgiveness.
Qi Xiao then requested to borrow the Kunlun Mirror, explaining that the Jiaolong seal at Three Lakes of Moon was weakening, and he wished to use the mirror's light to strengthen it. Acknowledging this as a matter concerning the three realms, the White Emperor agreed. A powerful array, attracting numerous black butterflies, appeared outside the Apothecary House.
Bai Yaoyao deduced that Xu Xuan had set up this array to lure Leng Ning there, intending for Bai Yaoyao to personally resolve their conflict. Bai Yaoyao instructed everyone in the Apothecary House to retreat into the main hall and then established a barrier to protect them within. At Kunlun Mountain, the White Emperor presented many magical artifacts, among which the Kunlun Mirror lay hidden, capable of assuming countless forms.
He challenged Qi Xiao and Xu Xuan to choose the correct one, stating that if they failed, they must immediately leave Kunlun Mountain. After much observation, Xu Xuan and Qi Xiao were unsure how to proceed. At that moment, the Green Emperor appeared and provided Xu Xuan with an Ice Mirror, which possessed the ability to dispel all illusions, allowing them to successfully locate the Kunlun Mirror.
Xiao Qing opened the barrier at the Three Lakes of Moon, unaware that Tao Tie had been tracking her. Before she could enter, Tao Tie appeared and captured her, intending to awaken the Jiaolong. Xiao Hui, loyal to Xiao Qing, tried to rescue her, but as a minor demon, he was no match for Tao Tie and was swiftly injured. Qi Xiao, carrying the Kunlun Mirror, rushed back to the lakeside and repelled Tao Tie.
He cast the Kunlun Mirror into the lake to reinforce the seal, but to his dismay, the mirror shattered upon contact with the seal. The Kunlun Mountain barrier continued to loosen, and Xiao Xiang, inspecting the seal, sensed the powerful aura of the Demon Emperor. Leng Ning arrived at the Apothecary House, where Bai Yaoyao confronted her about the little demons turning into devils. Leng Ning, now wielding formidable demonic power, immediately attacked Bai Yaoyao.
Bai Yaoyao found herself struggling against the enhanced Leng Ning. At a critical moment, Xu Xuan, who had been observing from the shadows, intervened to assist Bai Yaoyao, allowing her to gain a tenuous advantage. Die Man and Teng Yao, still seeking revenge from Leng Ning for absorbing Die Man's power, tracked her to the Apothecary House. Leng Ning cunningly convinced Die Man to first deal with Bai Yaoyao.
Even with the aid of the array, Bai Yaoyao managed to hold her own against the three. Xu Xuan then dispelled the array, desiring to test the true extent of Bai Yaoyao's improved magical abilities. Xu Xuan revealed that he could not protect Bai Yaoyao indefinitely, which was why he had orchestrated Leng Ning's presence, hoping to expose Bai Yaoyao's shortcomings and encourage her to train more diligently.
He had remained hidden to ensure her safety while allowing her to grow. Leng Ning eventually used realgar smoke, injuring Bai Yaoyao, who quickly lost consciousness. Xu Xuan immediately rushed to rescue Bai Yaoyao and transported her to a celestial crane for care. Despite shattering, the Kunlun Mirror had successfully repaired the Jiaolong's seal and subsequently reformed itself.
Qi Xiao instructed Xiao Qing and Xiao Hui to remain behind and guard the Kunlun Mirror and the barrier, while he set off to pursue Tao Tie. Xiao Qing pressed Xiao Hui for the truth regarding the little demons' transformation into devils.
Xiao Hui confessed that Xu Xuan had, in fact, instructed the little demons to leave for their safety, but Leng Ning had intercepted them, manipulating and inciting them to sacrifice their heart fire, claiming it was necessary to assist Xu Xuan against Tao Tie under the blood moon. Leng Ning, now unconcerned with becoming a demon or a devil, declared her sole ambition was to surpass Bai Yaoyao in power, even if it meant collaborating with Tao Tie.
She boasted to Tao Tie that she transformed from a human into a demon in just a few years, a feat that takes centuries for demons, demonstrating her unique talent in cultivating magic. Xiao Qing received a spiritual message from Bai Yaoyao, informing her that Leng Ning had once again escaped.
Xiao Qing suspected that Xu Xuan had secretly aided Leng Ning's escape, believing he was implicated in the ongoing events, even if he wasn't directly responsible for the little demons' transformation. Xiao Hui then revealed that Xu Xuan had crafted forty-nine clay figures for the little demons and placed them in the peach blossom forest.
Xiao Qing, touched, learned from Xiao Hui that the little demons' last wish was to cultivate immortality and revisit the Garden of Heavenly Peaches, a wish she vowed to fulfill. Separately, Tao Tie, as the Demon Emperor, revealed that the Command of Nature (Wanxiang Ling), which had been destroyed by the Nine Heavens a thousand years ago, was now fully repaired. He declared that with the Command of Nature, all demon tribes would be compelled to obey his orders, and his plans for revenge were now complete.
