Bai Xiaosheng injured himself and blamed Tian Yao, hoping to gain sympathy from Yan Hui and make her feed him porridge. Tian Yao deliberately waited outside the courtyard and explained when he saw Yan Hui coming out with a bowl. Yan Hui couldn't help but think that Tian Yao had feelings for her, but quickly denied it herself. After all, she had suffered enough from Tian Yao before and didn't want to get lost again, so she quickly left.

Zhu Li asked Chang Lan to investigate Zhao Gong, but it was in vain. Huan Xiaoyan criticized Zhu Li, considering him to be a weak and dependent prince who always needed help. Zhu Li felt ashamed and explained that he didn't want to search the Qingqiu Realm extensively to avoid causing panic. He came up with a plan to wait for the opportunity. As long as Zhao Gong destroyed the Luo Compass to prevent anyone from stealing the Dark Soul Gift, they would know the outcome by guarding the Dark Soul Gift.

Bai Xiaosheng pretended to be more seriously injured and blamed by the Lord of Darkness for not retrieving the Dark Soul Gift, which led to the torment of his true body left with the Lord of Darkness. Yan Hui felt sorry for him and not only promised to retrieve the black robe made from his true body but also agreed to let Bai Xiaosheng accompany her to bathe in the cold spring.

When Tian Yao saw Bai Xiaosheng coming to bathe in the cold spring with Yan Hui, he became extremely jealous. He insisted that Bai Xiaosheng stay by his side, but when Yan Hui mentioned feeling cold and the warm stone from yesterday, Bai Xiaosheng took the opportunity to help Yan Hui find the stone. Tian Yao didn't want Yan Hui to feel cold and forcibly heated the cold spring. Yan Hui soon felt the warmth of the dragon body, thinking she had found the warm stone from yesterday. Bai Xiaosheng saw through his plan but didn't expose him. He deliberately tortured Tian Yao by stepping on him, feeling satisfied. The Lord of Darkness reproached Bai Xiaosheng for not retrieving the Dark Soul Gift quickly, giving him a taste of his power. Bai Xiaosheng had no time to be jealous anymore and immediately left with his dark aura body.

After Bai Xiaosheng left, Tian Yao fell into a coma. Yan Hui quickly pulled Tian Yao to the shore but was caught by Fu Yin, who came to inspect the area. Fu Yin exposed Tian Yao's act of heating the cold spring and was even more pleased when he saw Yan Hui's concern for Tian Yao. Since Yan Hui didn't know where Tian Yao lived, she carried him back to her own house. After resting for a while, Tian Yao finally woke up. Yan Hui asked Tian Yao why he did all that, and Tian Yao said he didn't want Yan Hui to feel cold. This statement disturbed Yan Hui's heart, and she couldn't stay with Tian Yao anymore. She ran out to calm herself down and repeatedly reminded herself not to get involved again.

On the third day of bathing in the cold spring, Yan Hui made thorough preparations. As soon as she entered the pool, she asked Tian Yao not to heat the water and declared to Tian Yao that she would never fall in love with him again. She also believed that Tian Yao's future was destined to be full of hardships in order to retrieve his dragon body, while she just wanted to live a peaceful life. Although Tian Yao thought Yan Hui made some sense, he couldn't let go of her in his heart. Despite her rejection, he continued to heat the water, leaving Yan Hui quite helpless.

Zhu Li and Huan Xiaoyan stayed outside the gate where Yan Buhuo was located to protect the Dark Soul Gift. Yan Buhuo thought Zhu Li had made progress, but he was still disrespectful to his seniors, which made him worry about the future of Qingqiu. Zhao Gong came to find Zhu Li and claimed that Chang Lan was looking for him. Although Zhu Li was suspicious, he was also worried that it might really be Chang Lan looking for him, so he left. Huan Xiaoyan guarded the gate alone and was soon ambushed. With just one move, she fell down. Zhao Gong, completely wrapped up, entered the cave and stole the translated version of the Dark Soul Gift. Unexpectedly, Yan Buhuo suddenly appeared, although he let Zhao Gong escape, he left a lingering odor on his neck that would last for thousands of years. When Tian Yao and Yan Hui returned from bathing in the cold spring, they heard that the Dark Soul Gift had been stolen. They hurried to find Yan Buhuo, who presented the original version and entrusted it to Tian Yao, while ordering the entire Qingqiu to be sealed off. Tian Yao knew that the next day would be his wedding day with Yan Hui, so he took the opportunity to request that everyone come to witness the ceremony. Yan Buhuo insisted on smelling everyone who entered at the gate. Zhao Gong felt suspicious and deliberately said in front of Chang Lan that Yan Buhuo's actions were deceiving. Many people who thought Yan Buhuo was old-fashioned agreed with him, but Chang Lan not only cooperated but also sprinkled Qingqiu's national flower to celebrate. After Ling Xiao learned about it, he planned to gather the Xuanmen members to conquer Qingqiu.

Tian Yao begged Yan Buhuo to write a wedding book that would leave a lasting reputation in history, expressing all his feelings and his desire to never leave Yan Hui. Yan Hui didn't take this wedding seriously and wanted to stay in bed, but Tian Yao, who knew her love for money, was prepared. He had someone deliver a large amount of jewelry, and Yan Hui immediately happily got out of bed and started preparing, except that Huan Xiaoyan's skills made people unable to compliment her. She almost turned Yan Hui into a dying person. Fortunately, Pu Fang came to deliver the wedding dress and reminded her in time.
