The Tragicomic Ghost of Ghost Valley, known as the Merciless Register Keeper, claimed she would kill all the heartless men in the world. Upon hearing that Mu Yunge had betrayed Emei disciple Mo Yanwan after toying with her affections, leading to Mo Yanwan hanging herself in grief at Broken Sword Manor, the Tragicomic Ghost had Mu Yunge captured.

She intended to personally hold a wedding ceremony for Mu Yunge and the ghost bride Mo Yanwan, inviting the evil spirits of Ghost Valley to bear witness. Mu Yunge was forced to perform a grand kowtow ceremony in front of Mo Yanwan’s spirit tablet. The Tragicomic Ghost also had ten of Mu Yunge’s peers captured and forced them to kill each other for entertainment at the wedding. Only one would be allowed to leave alive.

These ten came from various major sects in the martial world. None wanted to die, and they fought with all their might in a brutal melee. Blood flowed like a river, just as the evil ghosts had anticipated. They eagerly waited to feast on human blood. In the end, only one person survived, and Mu Yunge was already scared out of his wits by the bloody spectacle.

Zhou Zishu followed Shen Shen and Zhao Jing all the way to Yueyang and stayed at the same inn with them. Since Zhou Zishu had resumed his true appearance, Zhang Chengling only found him familiar but couldn't recognize him. Shen Shen and Zhao Jing bought out all the Wucheng wine in the inn. They drank heartily.

Under the influence of alcohol, Shen Shen began ranting, complaining that Zhang Chengling was too weak to be of any use and suspected him of hiding the whereabouts of the Glazed Armor. Zhao Jing believed Zhang Chengling was still young and advised Shen Shen to be patient. Zhang Chengling overheard their conversation from outside the window. Han Ying was sent to investigate the whereabouts of the Glazed Armor.

Upon arriving in Yueyang, he went directly to Gao Chong to inquire about it. Gao Chong claimed to know nothing. Han Ying was infuriated, and the two had a heated argument. Gao Chong retorted sarcastically, claiming loyalty only to the current emperor and showing disdain for Prince Jin, then forcibly expelled Han Ying. Shen Shen and Zhao Jing brought Zhang Chengling to the outskirts of Yueyang.

Gao Chong personally led people to escort them into the city and asked his only daughter, Gao Xiaolian, to take Zhang Chengling to rest. Zhou Zishu arrived at the headquarters of the Yueyang Sect and saw the heavy security, which put him at ease. Then he suddenly noticed that the bun vendor at the gate was using Window of Heaven's secret signals. Zhou Zishu was shocked to realize that Window of Heaven had spies planted even in the Yueyang Sect.

Zhou Zishu immediately followed the bun vendor and used the secret code of Window of Heaven to make contact. The man showed no response, instead drawing a dagger hidden on the shelf and attacking Zhou Zishu. Zhou Zishu swiftly killed him, discovering the dagger was marked with a scorpion emblem. Only then did Zhou Zishu realize the man was an assassin from the Scorpion group. Wen Kexing arrived shortly afterward and praised Zhou Zishu’s quick reflexes.

Wen Kexing wore a piece of Glazed Armor at his waist and deliberately flaunted it in the marketplace. Zhou Zishu warned him to be cautious, but Wen Kexing didn’t take it seriously. Zhou Zishu tried to avoid him. Wen Kexing’s behavior soon drew the attention of Yueyang Sect disciples, who questioned the two of them. Zhou Zishu handled the situation cleverly. Taking advantage of the distraction, the thief Fang Buzhi stole the Glazed Armor from Wen Kexing’s waist.

Fang was delighted, intending to use it to stir chaos in the martial world. Feeling bored, Gu Xiang went to a tavern to drink alone. There, she saw Xiao Liuzi and two drunks harassing a singing girl. Gu Xiang quickly stepped in, fiercely taught the three men a lesson, and drove them away. Cao Weining, the young master of the Qingfeng Sword Sect, was also drinking there.

He praised Gu Xiang’s actions and invited her to drink and enjoy some food with him. Gu Xiang ate heartily, and the two quickly found themselves in pleasant conversation. Just then, Xiao Liuzi brought Yueyang Sect disciple Zhu Yaozhi and others to the tavern to demand accountability from Gu Xiang. Furious, Gu Xiang flew into a rage. Cao Weining stood up and explained the situation. Zhu Yaozhi scolded Xiao Liuzi harshly, frightening him into fleeing.

Zhu Yaozhi then repeatedly apologized to Gu Xiang and Cao Weining. Zhou Zishu brought Wen Kexing to the tavern to gather information. Following the custom, he placed a spiced bean on his chopsticks. A staff member noticed and came over to exchange secret signals with him. Zhou Zishu saw Gu Xiang and Cao Weining upstairs, drinking and chatting about poetry and music. Wen Kexing grew angry and stormed upstairs to confront them, sending Cao Weining away with a few words.

Wen Kexing warned Gu Xiang not to mingle with such pretentious people like Cao Weining again. When Cao Weining went to pay the bill, he found his pouch had been stolen. The staff pressed him for payment, leading to an argument. Wen Kexing volunteered to cover the cost and asked Zhou Zishu for money, but Zhou Zishu refused. Gu Xiang came over, and upon seeing Zhou Zishu's handsome and suave demeanor, couldn't resist teasing him and even touched his face.

Zhou Zishu wasn’t angry, and Wen Kexing mocked him coldly. Zhou Zishu had no choice but to hand over money for the bill, and Wen Kexing took the opportunity to order the finest banquet.
