Episode 9 recap: Yue Jin Zhao Luo Zhao Yan and Xian Qing exchanged their cultivation levels.

After saving Bian Luo Huan, Xiao Yuan became braver and braver. She cornered Yue Qi and Yue Qi Zhao Yan near a cliff. In order to save Yue Qi, Yue Jin Zhao was directly struck by Xiao Yuan and fell off the cliff. Seeing this, Yue Qi shouted and jumped after him. Below the cliff was a bottomless abyss, and Yue Jin Zhao fell into it. Yue Qi immediately followed and dived into the unfathomable depths. She found Yue Jin Zhao underwater and disregarded everything else to help him regain his breath. The two exchanged air mouth to mouth, and Yue Qi even blushed a little. With Yue Qi's assistance, Yue Jin Zhao was able to breathe again. Yue Qi carried him out of the water, and Yue Jin Zhao coughed up a mouthful of water before recovering.

Just as they were about to leave, Gao Xiao, Meng Jiao Shi, and the disciples of the Qi Yuan Sect arrived. Gao Xiao saw Yue Qi and Yue Jin Zhao drenched and in a sorry state, so he took the opportunity to make matters worse. He blew a whistle and summoned the monstrous beast Zhen Yao from the depths of the abyss. Zhen Yao was incredibly powerful and directly sucked Yue Jin Zhao into its belly. Seeing this, Yue Qi quickly used her magic to intervene. Her eyes emitted a blue light, and her power had greatly increased compared to before. She attacked Zhen Yao, causing it to release Yue Jin Zhao and then quickly escape.

Gao Xiao and the others were shocked by the turn of events. They didn't expect Yue Qi to possess such great power. Realizing the situation was unfavorable, they quickly fled. Second sister Ge Qingfei came to visit Xiao Yuan. Because she used brute force to knock Yue Qi and Yue Jin Zhao off the cliff, the eldest sister was angry and punished her by making her write. However, Xiao Yuan was eager to go skiing and had no intention of writing. She angrily asked her second sister about the relationship between Yue Jin Zhao and her third brother and why they looked exactly the same. The second sister didn't answer, only admonishing her to write well, or else she wouldn't be allowed to eat.

Bian Luo Huan came to see his eldest brother. Seeing his relaxed appearance, the eldest brother knew that Yue Qi must be fine. Bian Luo Huan informed his eldest brother that Yue Qi's power had greatly increased and couldn't be compared to three years ago. The eldest brother asked why, and Bian Luo Huan said it was probably due to the absorption of the Qi Yuan Pearl, which contained the life force of a person. The eldest brother mentioned that the Qi Yuan Pearl also had a dark aura and wondered if it had affected Yue Qi's character.

Bian Luo Huan replied that it hadn't and that they should eat and drink as they pleased. Seeing the eldest brother still coughing, Bian Luo Huan worried, but jokingly reminded him to take care. The eldest brother then chased him away. Bian Luo Huan visited Xiao Yuan, and as usual, he helped her with her writing while she went out to play in the snow. The second sister had no way to deal with them.

In the battle with Ge Qingfei, Xian Qing revealed his true form to save Luo Zhao Yan, but he was severely injured due to only having half of his cultivation. So Ming Xiu took him back to Chunshan to recuperate. Even in a coma, Xian Qing tightly held Luo Zhao Yan's hand, and Luo Zhao Yan accompanied him all the way back to Chunshan.

Master Gu Chunjiang was surprised to see Xian Qing so badly injured, and in order to facilitate his treatment, Luo Zhao Yan waited outside the cave. Ming Xiu told Master Gu that Xian Qing encountered someone with half of their cultivation, which is why he fought desperately to protect them.

Gu Chunjiang mentioned the events between Xian Qing and Luo Wang Ping twenty years ago, and Luo Zhao Yan heard it from outside, finally realizing that it was Xian Qing who gave her half of his cultivation to save her life. Taking advantage of Ming Xiu and his disciples going out to prepare medicine, Luo Zhao Yan entered the cave and returned the cultivation that Xian Qing had given her.

However, she herself was exhausted and collapsed onto Xian Qing. Xian Qing woke up slowly, and Luo Zhao Yan awkwardly stumbled out. Xian Qing realized that his cultivation had returned to his body and chased after her. After spending these days together with Luo Zhao Yan, Xian Qing had deeply fallen in love with her, and how could the clever Luo Zhao Yan not know? The two stood silently in the misty rain, and Xian Qing, feeling desolate, asked Luo Zhao Yan if returning his cultivation meant she wanted to distance herself from him.

Luo Zhao Yan had no words in response and could only say that a son must repay his father's debt. Her father passed away before he could fulfill his promise, so it was her responsibility to repay that debt. She affectionately advised Xian Qing not to take life and death lightly in the future. Gu Chunjiang noticed that Xian Qing was in a heavy mood and jokingly remarked that he must have encountered a romantic entanglement on his trip down the mountain.

Xian Qing helplessly replied that it was indeed a love affair. Gu Chunjiang sighed and said that in Xian Qing's thousands of years in the demon realm, had he ever been so emotionally invested like today? Xian Qing said, "Perhaps this girl is just extraordinary!"
