When Fan Yiran first arrived in Linzhou after coming down from the mountain, there happened to be a stampede in a shopping mall due to "evil possessions". He drew a charm on the spot to quell the evil, but he was regarded as "pretending to be a ghost" by onlookers, and even the officials who asked for help were dubious. After that, he conducted a low-level investigation and discovered that the strange things in Linzhou were caused by the destruction of the "soul-eating evil" that was suppressed a hundred years ago, and that the evil spread with the illegal construction of a real estate developer. Fan Yiran found the crux and wanted to break the situation, but was blocked by real estate developers and doubters, and was even accused of "spreading rumors." It wasn't until the soul-eating evil caused a large-scale soul loss incident and Linzhou was paralyzed that officials and people panicked. Some people remembered Fan Yiran's previous actions to suppress the evil, and the whole city spontaneously flocked to his old house where he temporarily lived, begging him to take action. In the end, Fan Yiran used his sect's secret formation to combine Linzhou's geography and spent three days to seal the soul-corrupting evil. Linzhou returned to normal. He also completed his sect's mission to overcome the tribulation and chose to stay in the mortal world to continue to protect it.
