When the army returned in triumph, Xiaotian learned that Xiang Liu had died in battle and was plunged into unbearable grief. “Weren't you the nine-headed Xiang Liu? Weren't you the demon king of the sea?” “How could you die?” “You wouldn't even leave me one last thing to hold on to! Was I truly so worthless in your heart?” After spending the night alone, Xiaotian finally understood her own feelings. Resolving to divorce Tushan Jing, she returned to Yushan, her heart turned to ashes. When the big-bellied laughing doll was opened, Xiang Liu's overwhelming love finally came to light.
