Under Lu Zhaoyao's decision, Li Chenlan and Liu Cangling decided to gamble with dice. As a result, Li Chenlan had bad luck and quickly lost almost everything. Fortunately, Li Chenlan had previously won a round against Liu Cangling in a martial arts competition. Seeing Li Chenlan's displeased expression, Lu Zhaoyao, to calm things down, proposed an additional match of gambling with chess, and asked Sima Rong to observe.
Sima Rong reminded Liu Cangling and Li Chenlan that whoever lost would have to leave. Liu Cangling's words revealed a sense of destiny, while Li Chenlan believed that fate was determined by oneself. Although Li Chenlan was not good at gambling, he was skilled at chess and easily won the game. Sima Rong spoke up for Li Chenlan, and Liu Cangling, willing to admit defeat in the gamble, had no choice but to leave in disappointment.
Qin Zhiyan secretly watched from inside the house. Seeing Liu Cangling leave despondently, she felt very reluctant, but a deep-seated blood feud separated them, so his departure was inevitable. Although she thought this way, Qin Zhiyan still couldn't help but shed tears as she watched Liu Cangling's retreating back. After Liu Cangling left, Lu Zhaoyao asked Li Chenlan about his view on fate.
Li Chenlan firmly believed in his own opinion, stating that there was no such thing as being powerless, only disbelief in fate. Lu Zhaoyao wanted to press Li Chenlan further, but Li Chenlan felt the night was beautiful and, not hesitating to expend his power, pulled Lu Zhaoyao to go to Heaven to look at the moon.
Lu Zhaoyao took the opportunity to test whether Li Chenlan liked her, but Li Chenlan feigned ignorance, making Lu Zhaoyao unable to figure him out. Li Chenlan told Lu Zhaoyao that she could tell him anything she desired. Lu Zhaoyao was wavering because of Li Chenlan's words. She deliberately changed the subject by bringing up Qin Zhiyan's background, implying with a double meaning that she was there for revenge.
Li Chenlan knew that the revenge Lu Zhaoyao spoke of was not settling scores with Liu Wei, but killing himself, yet he said nothing. Lu Zhaoyao did not understand the meaning behind Li Chenlan's words, nor did she want to pursue it further. In any case, the current situation was favorable to her.
Liu Cangling kept his promise not to bother Qin Zhiyan anymore, but he could not forget their childhood affection and hid in a tavern, drinking to drown his sorrows. Liu Cangling recalled the scene when Qin Zhiyan first visited their home years ago. At that time, both fathers saw that the two had feelings for each other and brought up the matter of them becoming in-laws.
He had thought he could be happy forever with Qin Zhiyan, but Qin Zhiyan claimed that Liu Wei had killed her father, putting Liu Cangling in a difficult position. Li Chenlan escorted Lu Zhaoyao home. Their relationship progressed quickly through the moon-gazing incident. Lu Zhaoyao returned home happily, but Qin Zhiyan had a sad expression. She asked Lu Zhaoyao if she intended to continue seeking revenge.
Lu Zhaoyao believed that although Li Chenlan was good to her, she did not intend to give up on revenge. Qin Zhiyan saw that Lu Zhaoyao was tough-mouthed but soft-hearted. After spending so much time together, she knew that Lu Zhaoyao was not the great demon everyone claimed her to be. Qin Zhiyan persuaded Lu Zhaoyao to give up on revenge, saying that even she, an outsider, could see that Li Chenlan was sincere towards Lu Zhaoyao.
Qin Zhiyan's words touched Lu Zhaoyao. She recalled the scene where she had initially aspired to be a good person but was tortured and coerced by Ming Xuan. From then on, Lu Zhaoyao resolved to be a bad person. Lu Zhaoyao lamented that she was forced to become a demon by the sect members back then, but Qin Zhiyan said she was not a bad person. Overwhelmed with mixed emotions, she did not want to continue chatting.
Early in the morning, Sima Rong told Qin Zhiyan about Liu Cangling waiting outside the door all night. Qin Zhiyan was greatly startled upon hearing this and immediately ran to find Liu Cangling. Liu Cangling was unwilling to give up his feelings for Qin Zhiyan; he wanted to try one last time. Liu Cangling handed Qin Zhiyan the love token hairpin, asking her to leave with him. Just as the two were entwined, Li Chenlan ran out.
Li Chenlan reminded Liu Cangling that Liu Wei had not searched for his son, who had been missing for many days, implying something must have happened at Appraisal Heart Sect. Anxious, Liu Cangling had no choice but to leave. Lu Zhaoyao was worried that Qin Zhiyan was troubled by love. She personally went to Qizhi Land, wanting to find some amnesia pills to relieve Qin Zhiyan's worries.
Ziyou heard about Lu Zhaoyao's intention and helplessly stated that the items in Qizhi Land were unusable by ordinary people. Lu Zhaoyao then had no choice but to take Qin Zhiyan to eat something to relieve her worries. Yuezhu pestered Sima Rong to tell stories. Sima Rong recounted the scene of their first meeting, which made Yuezhu very happy. Jiang Wu suddenly appeared. Sima Rong, being crippled in both legs, was easily taken away by him.
Li Chenlan received news from his subordinates, learning that Sima Rong had been captured, and immediately became anxious. Lu Zhaoyao and Qin Zhiyan returned home and found Sima Rong's residence ransacked. Both were greatly alarmed. Just as Lu Zhaoyao instructed Qin Zhiyan to hide well, Li Chenlan arrived. Yuezhu anxiously told them that the kidnappers of Sima Rong had left a message, waiting for them at Mount Lingting. Li Chenlan planned to go alone to rescue him.
Lu Zhaoyao was worried and followed him, the two walking one after another. Lu Zhaoyao had originally intended to seize the opportunity to sneak attack Li Chenlan, but she remembered the scene where he cast a spell to shield her tombstone from the rain, and ultimately did not make a move. Li Chenlan walked ahead, heard Lu Zhaoyao's inner thoughts, and felt very happy in his heart.
