### Imperial Capital Arc

Dan first appears in the Xuan Nu Palace building being summoned by the Palace Master. The master was informed by Nuan Yu that a young male (Chu Qing) in the Imperial Capital has reached the Transformation Realm in power. Dan is surprised that a man has actually reached that high in power. Dan mentions about a prophesy long ago from a saint who reached Holy Realm predicting that the world would not always care for women, and when a male cultivator who reached the point of Transformation Realm, the Empire would under go great changes. The master forbids this to happen and wants to eliminate Qing as she doesn't want the Empire she took over to change in any way. One of the seven elders, Feng Xi comes in with reports. The master states she wants to return to the Empire because the tribe has been wiped out of history thanks to the Empress and doesn't want her people to keep hiding on an island forever. She wants to pay back the Empress and dethrone her once and for all. The master orders Xi for her to inform their allies to kill Qing at the Material Arts Competition.

Dan meets with Meng Zui. Zui says to Dan that the baby in her womb is almost five months old and asks why it hasn't there been any movement yet. Dan says there are two dragons to the case. One is suppressed, and it does no harm to the baby; the other is not suppressed, because of its powerful strength, it suppresses the growth of the baby and If the other dragon energy is not suppressed, her child will never grow up and die after three years. Zui asks what she can do. Dan says it is not impossible that there is a dragon in the dormitory under the Empress in the royal palace, the Dragon Raptor and is an important weapon of the empire and has never left the palace, and Zui can't even get out of the Xuan Nu Palace now.

On the night of the Empress's birthday, Dan and the master see a photo being shown by Xi of Qing and Zui having dragon spirits. Xi says there was a scene of a dragon circling the palace. Many people said after the brilliance sprinkled by the dragon melted into their bodies, they instantly felt boundless energy. The master asks Dan if there really are dragons in the Empire. Dan says the secrets of the Empire, the Dragon and the Empress will sooner or later be made public saying it has to due with the Dragon Blood. the master seems to be jealous of her sister getting power and love so easily stating if she becomes the next Empress, she can make the true Blood Dragon disappear forever. Dan mentions If the blood of the real dragon disappears, the empire will also be overthrown. the master does not care as she won't let anyone else get the dragon, especially her sister. Dan continues saying that dragon hovering on the palace is Zui and that's a gesture of the purest bloodline, and the spiritual power of the empire will be enriched again and is the recovery of the blood of the real dragon. As Dan walks out of the room, she reminds the master of her low personality which can't support a huge empire.

### Empire Versus Xuan Nu Palace Arc

Over a month later, Dan along with a few of the elders and warriors go to Jing Men destroying the city to search and capture Qing's family by the Palace Master's orders.

Two days later, Dan, the seventh elder, Xi Ning, and the warriors arrive at the Chu house breaking down the hidden door ban to continue their search for Qing's family. As they enter in, the sensors can't detect any movement, Ning uses Gu Worms she'd borrowed from Mo Chan. Soon, the sensors pick up a movement pointing right at Qing's family and group. Seven warriors fire a rainbow beam forcing Qing to cast a boundary around everyone appearing to the enemies. Ning orders to attack and capture Qing's family and allies. Qing goes forth cutting down most of the enemies. However, his party is surrounded by more warriors. He goes to help, but Dan confronts him blocking his path. Qing orders Dan to step aside, but the old woman refuses. Qing fires a dragon blast while Dan fires a multi-skull blast and as the two powers collide, Dan's skulls fall down on to the citizens turning them into skeletal zombies. Dan is overpowered by Qing and is defeated. As Qing and the group prepare to escape due to the number of enemies and use Lie's stealth, Ning captures Tang Jie, Head of the Tang Family and begins to choke her. Ning makes a deal with Qing to give him a spiritual pill and he'll let her go. She sees that Qing is left behind as his party escapes. Ning believes Qing is a fool and even if he's highly skilled, he won't beat the master warriors facing them alone since she's holding Jie hostage. Qing just laughs and attempts to escape by blasting the ceiling. Ning orders the warriors not to let him go, but see he's gone. However, Qing appears in front of Ning, grabbing her by the neck and choking her as he successfully rescued Jie. Dan rescues Ning from Qing and the warriors withdraw as a flood a water enter the house.

Outside Dan's warriors find Jie and Tang Nian being protected by Qing's boundary and tries to break it to capture the Tangs since they failed to take Qing's family. As the boundary is almost broken, Qing arrives and attacks the warriors only for Dan and Xing to block his attack and retreat.
