Lu Zhaoyao saw Lu Shiqi come to find her without permission, and realized that Li Chenlan had deliberately sent her away. She quickly went to look for Li Chenlan, but at this moment, there was no sign of Li Chenlan in Myriad Paths Sect. Sima Rong guessed that Li Chenlan had gone to the secret room to self-seal, and suggested Lu Zhaoyao try her luck.

Lu Zhaoyao successfully found Li Chenlan in the sealed secret room, but Li Chenlan was hiding inside, refusing to come out no matter what. Elder Chi reported to Luo Mingxuan that Qin Qianxian refused to lend a path. Luo Mingxuan was overjoyed upon hearing this, as he had long wanted to find an excuse to make trouble for Qin Qianxian.

Luo Mingxuan told Elder Chi and Lin Ziyu that he planned to attack Qin Qianxian on the grounds that Qin Qianxian was unwilling to lend a path. Lu Zhaoyao, upon receiving the news, certainly couldn't just sit by and watch, and at that time, with Myriad Paths Sect empty, it would be a good opportunity for him to capture Li Chenlan alive.

In order to find a way to cure Li Chenlan, Lu Zhaoyao spent all day searching for ancient texts in the Library Box. The devil within constantly tempted Li Chenlan, urging him to merge with it to gain power. Li Chenlan struggled to resist Wanjun. Lu Zhaoyao searched in the Library Box for many days but still could not find a way to remove the devil within. Sima Rong suggested that Lu Zhaoyao try the Sword Tomb.

The Wanjun Sword was sealed in the Sword Tomb back then, perhaps there was a way to suppress it there. Wanjun enticed Li Chenlan all day long. Li Chenlan finally couldn't bear it anymore and prepared to end his life, but Wanjun stopped him. Wanjun told Li Chenlan that their bloodlines were connected, and it would not allow him to die. Facing the powerful Wanjun, Li Chenlan's struggles seemed insignificant.

Wanjun killed the people guarding the secret room, possessed Li Chenlan's body, and wantonly slaughtered the people of Myriad Paths Sect. Lu Shiqi and Sima Rong were both seriously injured. Li Chenlan was controlled by Wanjun. He was incredibly powerful now, but he was also increasingly losing his mind, even injuring Sima Rong and Lu Shiqi. Lu Zhaoyao was very anxious seeing the situation before her, but she did not want to give up on Li Chenlan.

Although Sima Rong tried to persuade Lu Zhaoyao that Li Chenlan's current condition would be useless even if he left Myriad Paths Sect, Lu Zhaoyao still insisted. Lu Zhaoyao told everyone to leave, leaving only herself and Li Chenlan. After everyone left, Lu Zhaoyao tried to wake Li Chenlan by talking to him. Lu Zhaoyao continuously called out to Li Chenlan, but Li Chenlan no longer recognized her at this point, and the two became entangled.

Fortunately, Li Chenlan once again suppressed his demonic nature with his own will. After Li Chenlan woke up, he returned to normal, and everyone was happy to see this. Luo Mingxuan led Elder Chi and others to the Dust Pavilion. Qin Qianxian tried to persuade Luo Mingxuan to give up attacking Myriad Paths Sect, but instead, Luo Mingxuan took action and captured him.

Suyan saw Luo Mingxuan attack Qin Qianxian and was about to argue on the spot, but Qin Qianxian stopped him. Qin Qianxian told Suyan not to worry, saying that now that he had lost his cultivation, he was just a cripple, and it was the same no matter where he was. Qin Qianxian's cooperative attitude surprised Luo Mingxuan, but Qin Qianxian's nature had always been cold, so this was reasonable.

Before leaving, Qin Qianxian asked Luo Mingxuan if his immortal body was still well, now that the immortal path no longer existed. Qin Qianxian's words made Luo Mingxuan feel a bit emotional. He knew he had done many extreme things, but he didn't feel he was wrong. In order to keep his inner peace, he blamed all the sins on Li Chenlan. Luo Mingxuan thought that as long as Li Chenlan was dealt with, all evil would cease.

The news of Qin Qianxian being captured and taken back to Mount Feng spread throughout the martial arts world and soon reached Myriad Paths Sect. Lu Zhaoyao analyzed the situation with everyone. If Jiangzhou fell into Luo Mingxuan's hands, Myriad Paths Sect would find it difficult to resist the sects' attack. She understood the stakes involved better than anyone. Qin Qianxian had shown kindness to Lu Zhaoyao, and she couldn't just sit by and watch.

After weighing the options, Lu Zhaoyao decided to personally go and rescue Qin Qianxian. Lu Zhaoyao went to rescue Qin Qianxian and fell into a trap, becoming trapped. At this time, Luo Mingxuan had already gone to Myriad Paths Sect to find Li Chenlan. Luo Mingxuan arrived fiercely. Lu Shiqi tried to stop him but was knocked to the ground. Luo Mingxuan discovered that Li Chenlan had completely lost his cultivation and was like a cripple.

He was overjoyed and planned to eliminate Li Chenlan on the spot. At the critical moment, Zhu Ji suddenly appeared to stop him. Zhu Ji smiled and told Li Chenlan that he hadn't done anything for him in this life, so he should let him do one last thing for him. Zhu Ji sacrificed his life to seriously injure Luo Mingxuan, causing a flaw to appear in his Gold Deity's body.

After Zhu Ji died, Luo Mingxuan captured Li Chenlan and took him away. Lu Zhaoyao finally broke free from the barrier and ran back to Myriad Paths Sect, only to find that everyone was injured and Li Chenlan was nowhere to be seen. Sima Rong advised Lu Zhaoyao not to be impulsive. Since Luo Mingxuan dared to come to Myriad Paths Sect to capture someone, he must have been fully confident.

Furthermore, Luo Mingxuan clearly had the opportunity to eliminate Li Chenlan on the spot before, but he only took him away, which must mean he had other motives. Li Chenlan should be safe for now. Sima Rong pleaded with Lu Zhaoyao to consider Myriad Paths Sect, if not herself, as rashly going to rescue him would likely lead to falling into a trap. Seeing this, Lu Zhaoyao had no choice but to agree to stay.

Luo Mingxuan took Li Chenlan back to Mount Feng and had Lin Ziyu lock him up in the dungeon. He announced that he would hold a demon-extermination conference three days later. When no one was around, Luo Mingxuan examined the wounds Zhu Ji had inflicted on him, finding that his palm and entire arm were severely damaged. Lin Ziyu told Li Chenlan that Luo Mingxuan intended to execute him and confessed that she could save him.

Li Chenlan was now disheartened, and he showed no reaction no matter what Lin Ziyu said. When Li Yazi was having a meal with Liu Cangling, he heard the news that Luo Mingxuan was going to hold an Immortal Sects Meeting to judge Li Chenlan. Upon hearing this, Liu Cangling clenched his fists in anger, stating that it was not Li Chenlan who should be judged.

Liu Cangling took Li Yazi to find Lu Zhaoyao and others, explaining how Luo Mingxuan had destroyed the Xuzong Sect. Seeing Li Yazi as a witness, Lu Zhaoyao wanted to use the opportunity of the Immortal Sects Meeting to expose Luo Mingxuan's crimes and rescue Li Chenlan. Sima Rong reminded Lu Zhaoyao that even with Li Yazi, there was only a ten percent chance of successfully rescuing Li Chenlan.

Lin Ziyu spoke her heart to Li Chenlan, saying that all she had thought about these past years was him. Li Chenlan faintly told Lin Ziyu that there was only one Lu Zhaoyao, and these words made Lin Ziyu even sadder. Just then, Luo Mingxuan suddenly appeared; he had already heard their conversation. Liu Cangling reminisced with Qin Zhiyan and advised her to be extra careful when she went to Mount Feng.
