Meanwhile, Ye Li is tied to the Execution Platform, about to face the Nine Flavors True Fire as punishment for defending her husband, who has been falsely accused of being a "demonic cultivator." Her senior sister, Chu Zhaozhao, volunteers to carry out the execution and, before doing so, publicly confesses to framing Ye Li and falsely accusing Rong Yuan out of jealousy. As Ye Li is consumed by flames and cries out in despair, the heavens and earth shift. Rong Yuan appears in his demonic dragon form, heralding the imminent outbreak of an intense conflict.
