Feng Yuan, after countless cycles, finally achieved the positive result and underwent Nirvana. Feng Yin, the long-awaited Phoenix bloodline of Wutong Island for a hundred years, was supposed to be an anomaly in this lineage. However, due to the appearance of Gu Jin, she became an unexpected change. Gu Jin regretted deeply, willing to accept punishment, and also concealed the reason for trespassing the barrier for Hua Shu, presenting a heroic sacrifice. Just as Feng Yuan faced a dilemma, a deep voice cut through the sky, and in an instant, the figure of an old man in white robes descended. This person was Donghua. Having experienced millennia of fluctuations, he had become a demigod and gained considerable prestige among the immortals. Although he couldn't retrieve Feng Yin's celestial essence, there were still ways to nourish the physical body and gather immortal essence.

Feng Yuan, wise as he was, understood Donghua's intentions at a glance. He announced on the spot the punishment for Gu Jin: secluded cultivation in the forbidden valley of the Great Ze Mountain. The day Feng Yin returned would mark the day Gu Jin left the Great Ze Mountain. With no one daring to oppose, the severity of the punishment was hard to distinguish. Among the immortal lords, only Donghua understood Feng Yuan's difficulties.

In order to find the whereabouts of the Fire Phoenix, Gu Jin endured nine heavenly lashes and personally sought answers from the Stone of Heaven. However, the Stone of Heaven revealed that Feng Yin was born against the heavens, and wanting her to return was an even more rebellious act, unless Gu Jin was willing to face the heavenly calamity. Suspended in mid-air, the Stone of Heaven spoke word by word, and Gu Jin answered without complaint. Feng Yuan and Donghua watched this scene unfold. The lineage of the Fire Phoenix had faced numerous tribulations since ancient times, and Feng Yuan knew that Feng Yin's fate was predetermined. His only concern was that Gu Jin might be in danger, betraying the trust of the Ancestor God. Donghua calculated the fate of Gu Jin and found entanglements with Feng Yin's karma. Forced by circumstances, Feng Yuan decided to temporarily entrust the immortal realm to Lan Feng and go into seclusion overseas to nourish his celestial essence. Henceforth, the eternal flame in the Phoenix Hall's Soul Tower burned for a decade.

Trapped in the forbidden valley, Gu Jin pondered more and more. He wanted to wait for Feng Yin's return to personally give her the Water Nymph Beast to replenish her body. However, he found the Water Nymph Beast bland, so he added some spices to make it flavorful. That night, the Water Nymph Beast hatched from its egg. Although it couldn't speak, it understood Gu Jin's words. It harbored resentment toward Gu Jin's idea of harvesting its inner core. Almost devoured by a Qiongqi, the Water Nymph Beast was saved by Gu Jin, who named it "A Yin" and sternly criticized it. Gu Jin set up a barrier to prevent A Yin from wandering, but A Yin, taking advantage of his rest, transformed into a human and secretly drank the Drunken Jade Dew. The next day, Gu Jin was shocked to find a beautiful woman beside him. Upon noticing her bracelet, he recognized her identity. However, A Yin, belonging to a long-extinct water tribe, surprised everyone by hatching and surviving without the nourishment of the Hanging Lake's water.

A Yin remembered that Gu Jin's initial intention in adopting her was not out of kindness but to offer her to the Fire Phoenix to replenish her body. Her first thought after transforming was to stew Gu Jin, reciprocating his intention. Due to a misuse of spells, A Yin injured herself more than her enemy. She decided to take Gu Jin to the back mountain. Donghua, seeing this, was amused and opened the mountain gate, realizing that Gu Jin's calamity was approaching, probably due to the promise he made to the Stone of Heaven years ago. Palace Red Chou of the Clear Pool criticized Donghua for not protecting Gu Jin, suggesting killing A Yin to eliminate future troubles. However, Donghua believed that A Yin, as a creature of the three realms, shouldn't be arbitrarily killed. The best course of action was to let her form a master-servant contract with Gu Jin.

Almost simultaneously, A Yin and Gu Jin were surrounded and chased by Qiongqi. Forced to jump off a cliff, they found themselves floating in mid-air, forming a master-servant contract. This contract could resolve calamities, emotional conflicts, or grievances. Restricted by the master-servant contract, A Yin had to follow Gu Jin at all times, suppressing any rebellious thoughts or murderous intent. She became his little fairy servant. Seeing the removal of the restrictions and his newfound freedom, Gu Jin speculated that the young Fire Phoenix had returned and felt genuinely happy.
