After the battle, the sky-wind war emperor receives a piece of soul-preserving wood, which he gives to the emperor of the darkiron kingdom in person. The wood was given to him by Bai yuerong, who is also the daughter of the emperor's father. The elder dragon asks his son-in-law if he will help him out, but the elder dragon says that he will only do so in exchange for something else. He tells the story of how he sent a message to the Emperor of the Darkiron kingdom asking him for the wood, and his daughter told him about it, so he won't have to reveal his secret. The older dragon tells the younger dragon how he will use the wood to move his daughter out of the wood. He says that the only way to get her out is to press an end against his forehead while moving her out. This is a bad idea, because the wood is sour, but he promises that he'll use it to heal the wounds of his daughter. The battle ends, and now they'll hold a sacrificial ritual. In the past, when the dragon clan lived in the Holy Sea of Heavenly Feather, they sacrificed themselves to the gods. The gods cast a curse on those who stepped inside the holy Sea of Feather. Now, the gods are working to dissipate part of the golden light in order to make it safe for cultivators to enter the holy water. The younger dragon says it's wonderful to inherit this world, and he thinks that the gods must have some help from humans in the upper worlds to remove the curse.
