Bai Xiaosheng was extremely anxious in front of the folding screen, deeply regretting not continuing to move forward earlier. At this moment, Tian Yao and Yan Hui emerged from the screen, holding the Ghostly Assignment in their hands. Seeing this, Xian Ge was very pleased and felt that he had not let down Lady Xue Lin's trust as the country's main wife. He had found the qualified successor. Tian Yao had agreed to give the Ghostly Assignment to Yan Hui alone, but Xian Ge didn't allow it. After all, the Ghostly Assignment was a treasure of the demonic race, and it couldn't be entrusted solely to Yan Hui, a member of the Xuanmen sect. However, Yan Hui didn't care about his concerns and walked away. Xian Ge reminded Yan Hui to take a look at the Ghostly Assignment first. Yan Hui couldn't recognize the words on the Ghostly Assignment, which gave her a headache. Xian Ge smugly stated that he was the only one who could understand the words on it and that he wouldn't translate them if the rules weren't followed.

The Ghostly Assignment was particularly important to Yan Hui. In order to learn it, she had to suppress her impatience and listen to Xian Ge explain the rules. Unexpectedly, Xian Ge demanded that Tian Yao and Yan Hui practice together and also get married. Yan Hui knew that Tian Yao had a fear of marriage and wanted to refuse, but Tian Yao agreed. So naturally, Yan Hui also agreed. Bai Xiaosheng, seeing the two of them about to get married, felt sad but couldn't stop it. After all, it was a matter of Yan Hui's life. As soon as Xian Ge left the cave, he announced to Qingqiu that Tian Yao and Yan Hui were the new owners of the Ghostly Assignment. From then on, the people of Qingqiu would protect them. Bai Xiaosheng realized that the news had leaked out and knew that the Lord of the Black Mist would soon find out about the Ghostly Assignment. He became even more anxious. Unexpectedly, Xian Ge had various rules, which annoyed Yan Hui. She wanted to ask the country's main wife to intervene.

Xian Ge went back to change clothes before meeting the monarch. When he arrived at the palace and saw Chang Lan, he couldn't help but feel angry. It was because Chang Lan and Chen Yi were twins, and according to Qingqiu's rules, only Chen Yi could stay. Although Chang Lan was spared, his eyes were blinded. Xian Ge only recognized Chen Yi and ruthlessly drove Chang Lan out of the palace. Zhu Li was dissatisfied and was scolded by Xian Ge. Xian Ge stubbornly stuck to the rules, and no one could do anything about him. It was a deadlock for the time being.

Huan Xiaoyan sensed a terrifying power in the Qingqiu palace, which made her too frightened to appear. After finally leaving the palace, she revealed the matter of the compass to Tian Yao. Bai Xiaosheng knew that the eye technique master was in Qingqiu, so he found an opportunity to meet him and blamed him for attacking the Lord of the Great Country and disrupting his acquisition of the Ghostly Assignment. The eye technique master's eye technique had become even more powerful and could even control Bai Xiaosheng's shadow. Bai Xiaosheng was secretly shocked and had to leave after making tough remarks.

Xian Ge was a stubborn person who insisted on translating the Ghostly Assignment for Tian Yao and Yan Hui only after they got married. Yan Hui learned that there were six wedding rituals, starting with the betrothal gifts. She told Tian Yao that he could just give her a piece of gold, and that would be enough. Xian Ge asked them to bathe in the cold spring for seven days before the wedding. Upon hearing this, Yan Hui immediately became angry. After all, she was still waiting for the Ghostly Assignment to save her life. If they delayed too long, her life might be in danger. In her anger, she planned to die together with Xian Ge. Tian Yao quickly intervened and convinced Xian Ge, emphasizing the importance of saving lives. Xian Ge then asked them to bathe in the cold spring for three days and privately reminded Tian Yao to propose properly. Tian Yao knew that Yan Hui liked yellow and white things, so he prepared a large amount of treasures in a Qiankun Bag to give to her. Unexpectedly, Yan Hui thought they were just putting on a show and refused to accept them. This extinguished Tian Yao's enthusiasm, leaving him feeling disappointed.

In the cold spring, Yan Hui's body froze as soon as she entered the water. Tian Yao felt sorry for her and transformed his body underwater into a dragon form to warm her with his spiritual fire. Yan Hui treated Tian Yao's dragon body as a warm stone and happily stepped on it. Tian Yao was both sweet and shy, providing heat for Yan Hui all day long without daring to move. As a result, he became numb and received ridicule from Yan Hui.

Zhu Li suspected that Zhao Gong was the eye technique master, so he went to Chang Lan to complain, hoping that he would investigate Zhao Gong. Chang Lan not only refused but also reprimanded Zhu Li for neglecting his training recently. Zhu Li couldn't persuade Chang Lan, so he had no choice but to leave resentfully. Little did he know that after he left, Chang Lan revealed a meaningful smile.

Tian Yao accompanied Yan Hui back to her residence. Bai Xiaosheng, seeing them together, became extremely jealous and immediately declared that he would go with them the next day. Tian Yao believed that he wanted to marry Yan Hui and didn't want Bai Xiaosheng to meddle. Bai Xiaosheng was consumed by jealousy and immediately expressed his love to Yan Hui. Yan Hui was surprised by this, and Bai Xiaosheng almost felt depressed. He suspected that he hadn't made his feelings clear enough. In order to tarnish Tian Yao's image in Yan Hui's heart, he intentionally provoked Tian Yao, pretending to be injured by him and seeking sympathy from Yan Hui. Bai Xiaosheng talked about his own experiences and expressed his love to Yan Hui, but she rejected him.
