After the antidote trial was successful, Bai Jiu prepared prescriptions for the townspeople based on their conditions. Wen Xiao and Pei Sijing helped gather the herbs, and the plague was finally dispelled, leading the villagers to express their gratitude to Bai Jiu. Seeing the bustling water town, Qing Geng recalled that this was the human world Fei longed for most.

He decided to stay permanently in Lingxi Villa; as long as the villa had someone to protect it, Fei would always be remembered. Wen Xiao and Zhao Yuanzhou enjoyed the night fireworks together. Wen Xiao thought that Zhao Yuanzhou, having seen various wonders in the desolate wilderness, would not be impressed by the sights of the human world. However, Zhao Yuanzhou remarked that whether in the human realm or the demon realm, all are part of the vast universe.

After celebrating and passing another hurdle, the demon-hunting team gathered to drink and appreciate the moon. Bai Jiu and Ying Lei suggested that Zhuo Yichen perform a sword dance for entertainment. Zhuo Yichen, usually serious, agreed when in a good mood and invited Zhao Yuanzhou to join in. The two danced with swords while channeling energy amidst flames and water, as Bai Jiu and Ying Lei created a rhythm with clappers.

Wen Xiao encouraged Pei Sijing to drink, and the atmosphere was lively and cheerful. After the sword dance, Pei Sijing took out Pei Siheng's figurine and fell into thought. Pei Siheng suddenly appeared to keep her company. Pei Sijing felt there was no danger at the moment and didn’t need protection. Pei Siheng replied that he was perfectly content just sitting in silence with her.

Back at the table, Wen Xiao proposed a game called the Lie Detector, presenting a spirit herb. She explained that if anyone lied, the herb's leaves would wilt. The first to be tested was Pei Sijing. Wen Xiao directly asked if she was a spy for the Chongwu Camp. The news of the demon-hunting team's journey to Kunlun Mountain was not widely known, yet Chongwu Camp received the information quickly.

They had originally planned to head straight to Kunlun Mountain, but Pei Sijing’s interference with Ying Lei changed their route, leading them to Sinan Water Town, where Qing Geng was waiting in ambush. Pei Sijing was the only one in the team who had previously worked for Chongwu Camp. She immediately denied it, but the spirit herb wilted, causing everyone to tense up. Pei Sijing explained that she had also contracted the plague while in the water town.

If she were a spy, there would be no need to risk her life. She snatched the herb and discovered that Zhuo Yichen had tampered with it using the principle of freezing water. With her innocence established, Pei Sijing began to question Wen Xiao. Wen Xiao stated that she had no connections with Chongwu Camp, and her joining the demon-hunting team was recommended by her father, so she had no motive to collude with them.

Next, she turned to Zhao Yuanzhou. He struggled to explain that as a large demon, he would never associate with his arch-enemy who aimed to capture him. When it was Ying Lei's turn, he clarified that he was neither human nor demon and didn’t even understand what Chongwu Camp was. Zhao Yuanzhou helped clarify that for Ying Lei, remembering recipes was more important than remembering intelligence. Only Bai Jiu remained.

Pei Sijing explained that the soldiers of Chongwu Camp all had a tattoo on their wrists, prompting everyone to check Bai Jiu’s wrist. Feeling hurt by the suspicion, Bai Jiu quickly explained that although he had studied medicine and knew some unconventional practices, it was solely to treat his frail mother. Wen Xiao still doubted him and added that Lord Situ's letter also indicated Bai Jiu was the prime suspect. Bai Jiu then approached Zhuo Yichen for protection.

Zhuo Yichen was eager to know the truth and encouraged Bai Jiu to show his arm, revealing that there was no Chongwu Camp tattoo. After a long night with no results, Bai Jiu's young heart was deeply wounded. The others took turns comforting him at his door, but Bai Jiu refused to forgive them. At the demon-hunting office, Fan Ying questioned Lord Situ about why he sent a letter accusing Bai Jiu without consultation.

Lord Situ stated that his relationship with Bai Jiu did not require explanation and wanted him to back down. The next day, Zhuo Yichen managed to cheer up Bai Jiu, and the group set off again, quickly arriving at the entrance to the Kunlun Mountain temple. At the temple entrance, the mountain gods Ying Zhao and Zhu Yin were on guard. Wen Xiao recognized both of them.

Ying Zhao noted that the desolate wilderness had fallen into decline, but fortunately, the goddess had returned, allowing the twenty-eight constellations to open and restore the wilderness. Zhao Yuanzhou recalled something strange: he had never sensed the existence of the Baize Order before. Ying Zhao explained that historically, the one who managed the Baize Order, whether human or demon, could only activate it when mutual feelings developed.
