The Mingzhong bell of Lanling rings, and the Four High Immortals discover that Jin Yao’s soul lamp has extinguished, leaving them in shock as they cannot understand why the sect leader died so suddenly. At this moment, Bai Shuo attempts to use the divine power of the Wunian Stone to save Fan Yue, but unfortunately, it has no effect. Consequently, she instructs Tianhuo to immediately prepare the alchemy furnace, deciding to concoct a first-grade elixir to save both Fan Yue and Fu Ling.
Tian Yu senses a fluctuation in the hidden power within Zhong Zhao’s body and personally comes to Bodhi Village. He discovers that the barrier has been broken and finds Jin Yao’s corpse, noticing residual hidden power on it. Jin Yao’s death proves one thing: the Divine Lord is about to return. Meanwhile, Zhong Zhao wakes up to learn that he has killed his master, a reality that is difficult for him to accept at first. However, realizing that his master’s death will undoubtedly cause chaos within the Lanling Sect, he hurriedly writes a letter to Lanling to inform them of everything. Unfortunately, Tian Yu deliberately intercepts and destroys the letter.
Despite Bai Shuo’s strenuous efforts to refine the elixir, she still fails, leaving her feeling deeply guilty and helpless. Fu Ling comes to console Bai Shuo, but Bai Shuo insists that she must use all her strength to save both herself and Fan Yue; otherwise, she will hate herself for the rest of her life. Simultaneously, the Four High Immortals search for clues about Jin Yao’s disappearance, recalling that Jin Yao had once approached Zhong Zhao alone. They set out for the Mantou Shop in Ning’an City, only to find Fu Ling’s demon accessories and clothes in the room, leading them to suspect that Zhong Zhao and Fu Ling might be involved.
Through Bai Shuo’s relentless efforts, she successfully concocts two first-grade elixirs. One is given to Fu Ling, completely curing the Devouring-Heart Poison, bringing Zhong Zhao to tears of joy. The other is given to Fan Yue, but it still has no effect on him. Bai Shuo remains by Fan Yue’s side day and night, engaging in lengthy conversations. Fan Yue seems to be inspired and is eventually awakened by her presence. The two embrace tightly, promising never to part again.
Fu Ling comes alone to find Tianhuo, sincerely apologizing for past events and expressing her willingness to atone. Tianhuo reveals that he had thought about killing Fu Ling more than once in the past. However, remembering that she is Bai Shuo’s sister whom he had saved with great difficulty, and considering that Bai Shuo saved Fan Yue, he decides to let go of his hatred for the sake of their bond. The two finally resolve their differences and turn their enmity into friendship.
Upon hearing that Jin Yao died due to Zhong Zhao’s hidden power, Tianhuo also vaguely learns that the Hidden Lord had intended to destroy the world. Hidden power sweeps across the land, seizing spiritual energy. To this day, various clans remain terrified of hidden power. Therefore, Tianhuo advises Fu Ling to keep Zhong Zhao’s hidden power a secret, urging her to conceal it as much as possible and never let the outside world know.
After Fan Yue wakes up, Bai Shuo continues to stay by his side with deep affection, reminiscing about the past with mixed emotions. Fan Yue comforts Bai Shuo, explaining that everyone has their own destiny. Even if she hadn’t met Bai Shuo, some things would still be destined to happen. As long as one hasn’t truly forgotten someone they’ve left, they haven’t truly left. Bai Shuo also believes that everything is moving in a positive direction.
Fu Ling sits outside watching the moonlit scene, never having imagined that she and Haoyue Palace would be at odds. However, today she is sheltered by Haoyue Palace. Zhong Zhao accompanies Fu Ling to watch the moonlit scene, understanding her worries about his hidden power. The two cuddle and chat, and once the dust settles, they plan to return to Ning’an City, looking forward to a beautiful married life in the future.
Although Luan Zhu’s divine soul is dead, her main body, the Jiu Ling Fu Qu, still remains. The Jiu Ling Fu Qu is a healing flower with endless vitality, so Tian Yu specially takes Luan Zhu’s main body back to Cold Spring Palace to repair the ancient mirror. At the same time, Bai Shuo takes on the major responsibility of organizing the Haoyue Palace celebrations, running back and forth busily, filling the palace with a joyous atmosphere. Zhong Zhao and Fu Ling have never seen such a celebration and are eager to watch this lively feast.
Bai Shuo prepares osmanthus cake for Fan Yue, along with the clothes he is going to wear. Fan Yue feels that this is too showy, but Bai Shuo simply wants everyone to see how handsome her Demon King is. However, Tian Yu uses the Jiu Ling Fu Qu to repair the ancient mirror, and suddenly the moon is obscured by dark clouds. Fan Yue, who was dressed splendidly to attend the celebration, suddenly spits out blood and loses all his demon power. Still, he forcefully tells Bai Shuo not to be sad and to happily enjoy the celebration.
