Twenty-five years ago, the violet-eyed child was born into the Bai Ze Clan. Gu Shang was overjoyed to have twin grandsons, one of whom, Fan Yue, was born with violet eyes, which astonished him. At first, Fan Yue behaved like any normal child, until one day he went up the mountain to gather herbs and fell off a cliff. Gu Shang went in search of him and discovered a violet mark on Fan Yue's forehead.

This mark was the divine symbol of the Demon God, which meant that Fan Yue was the reincarnation of the Demon God Jing Yuan. Although the gods’ existence in the world remained a mystery, Bai Ze had once been favored by the Demon God. In ancient times, Bai Ze's ancestors had received protection from the Demon God Jing Yuan, who had granted them a trace of divine power.

Although tens of thousands of years had passed, and Bai Ze’s divine power had long since faded, their bloodline still contained strong spiritual energy and soul power, much stronger than that of ordinary demons. Otherwise, their souls would not have remained intact for so many years. Fan Yue suspected that Bai Ze’s soul power was in Bai Shuo’s sea of consciousness, suppressing her will, which was why she had not woken up.

In order to awaken her, Fan Yue forcibly entered her sea of consciousness, despite the great danger. It was there that Fan Yue met Gu Shang in Bai Shuo’s consciousness. Gu Shang informed them that the Hidden Lord would soon reappear in the world, bringing with him a catastrophe for all. Soon after, the vengeful energy of Bai Ze was completely dissipated, and the illusion began to collapse.

Before leaving, Gu Shang and the other Bai Ze clanspeople gave Bai Shuo their blessings and spiritual power to help her cleanse the hatred within her, ensuring that she would face no hardships and that her path would become clear. Ultimately, Gu Shang and the others faded away, and Bai Shuo and Fan Yue woke up from the illusion. Bai Shuo tightly embraced Fan Yue, feeling the joy of being reborn after the tribulation.

Fan Yue enjoyed the feeling of being relied upon by her. Sometimes, he wished he could cast aside his identity as the Demon God or Demon King and live a carefree life in hiding with her. Bai Shuo hoped that Fan Yue would not be overwhelmed by the title of Demon God. If the world were at peace, retreating into seclusion would be fine.

But if, as Gu Shang said, the Hidden Lord were to resurrect, bringing catastrophe to the world, there would be nowhere to hide. Chen Ye gazed at the nameplates of his clanspeople, reflecting on everything that had happened. Suddenly, A Nuo opened the secret chamber and attempted to assassinate Chen Ye. However, not wanting to kill anyone in front of his clan, Chen Ye only knocked A Nuo unconscious.

He took his own nameplate and secretly left Bright Moon Palace, making Fan Yue believe that Chen Ye had chosen to remain loyal to Lengquan Palace. However, Chen Ye pretended to be injured to test the waters and discovered that Zhen Yu was indeed the mysterious figure. He attempted to assassinate Zhen Yu, but failed and was severely wounded, imprisoned in the dungeon, and once again lost the ability to walk.

Zhen Yu, suspicious of Chen Ye’s actions, began to suspect that Fan Yue might be the violet-eyed boy he had been searching for. Bai Shuo was concerned that Fan Yue might transform into the Demon God Jing Yuan. Fan Yue reassured her that she need not worry, as he would always be Fan Yue, and no one could change that. Tian Huo revealed to Bai Shuo that she had been ordered to investigate Bai Xi’s whereabouts.

She discovered that Bai Xi had once appeared in Lengquan Palace. Bai Shuo also recalled the scenes in Chen Ye’s memories, realizing that finding Bai Xi would require more effort. Meanwhile, Fu Ling personally visited the dungeon to see Chen Ye, only to learn that Zhen Yu was Chen Ye’s family’s destroyer.

Chen Ye lamented how he and Fu Ling had fought against each other in Lengquan Palace, seemingly bitter rivals, but in the end, they were each other’s only companion. He shared the whereabouts of the antidote to the Heart-Eating Poison with Fu Ling, hoping she could live on.

Bai Shuo wanted to quickly grow stronger, but when practicing her sword techniques, she still felt unwell, indicating that she had not properly refined the four thoughts and Bai Ze’s spiritual power to make them her own. Fan Yue took Bai Shuo to a cave that had once been a place of the Divine Clan. It was here that he had learned many of his demon techniques and all the information related to the Desireless Stone.

No one could spy on it, except for Fan Yue. Bai Shuo sat cross-legged on an ice bed, cultivating her energy, while Fan Yue watched over her. Fu Ling quietly entered Zhen Yu’s room to look for the antidote to the Heart-Eating Poison. Just as she was about to leave, she remembered Chen Ye and Zhong Zhao’s words, which piqued her curiosity.

Unexpectedly, Zhen Yu came in from outside and, knowing she had visited Chen Ye, crushed a pill in front of her. Fu Ling’s missing memories returned, and she remembered that she was Bai Xi. Zhen Yu, now certain that Bai Shuo was the person he had been searching for, decided to kill Fu Ling.
