Spoiler Alert
A Dark Turn for Fugui
The Price of Revenge
The episode kicks off right where we left off. Wangquan Fugui finally gets his revenge. He uses his Pure Yang Flame power to completely destroy Quan Jingting. He says the man didn't deserve to be Quan Rumu's father. It’s a brutal end. But it doesn't bring Quan Rumu back.
Later, Fugui goes to her grave. He tells her that her father got what he deserved. He hopes she can finally be with Long Weiyun in the afterlife. It’s a quiet, somber moment. But it’s not the end of the story.
The Fox's Influence
A new player enters the game. A fox spirit named Jiuhu shows up. We learn this isn't just any Black Fox clone. The Black Fox Queen literally cut off one of her own tails to create this one. She was made specifically to deal with Fugui.
Jiuhu senses the hate in Fugui and pulls him into an illusion. The fox thinks this newfound hate makes Fugui easy to control. It's a big miscalculation. Fugui's will is still strong. He tells the fox that he decides what is good and evil, not some random spirit. Even so, the encounter leaves a mark. A bit of that hate sticks to him. The Black Foxes think their plan is working perfectly.
The New Master of Qianji City
Shutting It All Down
Fugui starts an internal debate with his own dark side. This darker voice tells him that he knows people are hopelessly corrupt. It tempts him with an idea. If he took over the world, even the Black Foxes would have to bow to him.
This thought really gets to him. His personality shifts. The first thing he does is shut down the school in Qianji City. Little Bun is totally confused. He can't understand why the kind big brother he knew is suddenly gone. Fugui then announces he's restarting the Shura Hall. He orders Jiang Bo to bring him the Soul-Devouring Umbrella. Jiang Bo reminds him that Qingtong banned that weapon. Fugui doesn't care. He just beats Jiang Bo for questioning him.
A Betrayal of Trust
Qingtong gets back to Qianji City and finds Fugui holding the forbidden umbrella. She panics. She warns him that using evil objects like that will corrupt him. Fugui just says he isn't afraid of anything. He tells her to leave Qianji City fast. He says it's not her safe little Peach Blossom Dock anymore.
Next, Fugui has Jiang Bo capture a bunch of evil demons. He then absorbs all of their power for himself. After that, he sends a message to Fan Yunfei. He tells him to come to Qianji City immediately.
No One is Safe
The Attack on Fan Yunfei
The Black Fox Queen still isn't satisfied with Fugui's progress. She wants him to become a pure vessel of hate. She tells Jiuhu to go find "that person" to finish the job.
Fan Yunfei arrives and meets a completely different Wangquan Fugui. Fugui lies to his friend's face. He claims he just absorbed some dragon power by mistake when he killed Quan Jingting. Fan Yunfei, being a good friend, believes him without question. That was a huge mistake.
The next second, Fugui attacks him. He starts draining Fan Yunfei's demon power and steals his Water-Controlling Pearl. Fan Yunfei is crushed. He begs Fugui to tell him why he's doing this. Fugui just shoves him away.
A Final, Cruel Word
Qingtong finds the injured Fan Yunfei. She sees his pearl is gone and knows what happened. She tells him to run for his life. But Fugui shows up again. He stabs Qingtong with his Wenchen Sword.
He looks at both of them. He calls them weak. He says they are just burdens to him. Then he calls them his pets. That's the final blow. Qingtong turns and leaves. She knows the man she loved is gone. Fan Yunfei goes back to the Western Regions alone, totally broken. Back there, Li Xueyang gets the news. She immediately tells her people to warn Feng Tingyun. The Weapon Human's heart has changed. They need to make a plan.
