The Fire Immortal struggles with love and virtue, and Jinmi finds a Phoenix Feather.

It's the birthday celebrations for the Heavenly Empress, and Jinmi convinces her Fish Fairy to attend. Arriving for the feast, the Night Immortal acknowledges Kuanglu's true identity.

With Jinmi on the mend, Luolin learns from Mr Hu all about the past tangled relationships revolving around Zifen. The First Prince, who had long been promised in marriage to the elder daughter of the Water Immortal, sees his chance to unite duty and desire, even if it means denying his brother.

When the Water Immortal brings his daughter to the Heavenly Realm, the First Prince makes his move. Luolin introduces Jinmi at the Palace.

Xufeng suffers a recurrence of his injury, which he makes sure only Jinmi can help with. The Night Immortal is equally eager to show her his devotion. The Fire Immortal is ordered to the front line at Wangchuan River just as Jinmi has her promotion ceremony. Fate Fairy Yuanji discloses potential disasters and to avert them, and earn Immortal rank, Jinmi agrees to experience hardships in the Mortal Realm.

Fairy Yuanji must balance the demands of mother and son for Jinmi's fate. Jinmi buries a jar of osmanthus wine for the Fire Immortal's return. But, discovering his mother's plans, Xufeng too jumps into the Plate of Cause and Effect, Suihe after him, and Mr Liaoyuan is pushed in for good measure. Jinmi is born to be the Saint Girl, healer for King Yi and destined to be buried alive with him when he dies. And danger lurks already for the King.
