The Daily Life of the Immortal King S01E07

In this episode, the tension from the previous Shadow Stream encounters continues to loom over Sun Rong and the students of the Cultivation School. While they remain unaware of the full danger they’ve faced, Wang Ling knows that more trouble is on the horizon, especially with Sun Rong still being a prime target.

The episode begins with Wang Ling’s class returning to their normal school life after the field trip, but the atmosphere has changed. Sun Rong, though unharmed, feels uneasy and is starting to sense that someone has been quietly protecting her during these dangerous events. Her suspicions grow, though she doesn’t know that it’s Wang Ling.

Meanwhile, a new storm of trouble brews as the higher-ups of Shadow Stream are dissatisfied with their repeated failures to capture Sun Rong. They send out a new, even deadlier group of assassins, along with an ominous figure who will be the greatest threat yet—a powerful cultivator with skills that may rival even Wang Ling’s. The episode hints that this new figure is not to be taken lightly, with scenes showing his immense strength and ruthless nature.

Back at school, Sun Rong and her classmates are involved in a friendly inter-class competition where students face off in various magical duels. Wang Ling, once again trying to avoid attention, reluctantly participates but does his best to appear average. Despite his efforts, his strength continues to leak out in subtle ways, baffling his peers and teachers. Even in this light-hearted competition, Wang Ling’s incredible abilities are impossible to fully hide.

The episode’s comedic elements come from Wang Ling’s interactions with his classmates, including Guo Hao, who still views him as a rival, and Sun Rong, who becomes increasingly curious about him. However, the lightheartedness is offset by the looming danger, as the Shadow Stream assassins move closer to striking again.

As the episode concludes, the Shadow Stream leader is shown planning a large-scale attack, signaling that the calm of the students’ daily lives is about to be shattered once again. Wang Ling, sensing the coming storm, prepares to protect his friends, even if it means exposing more of his power than he wants to.

This episode sets the stage for a significant conflict, with the comedic moments balanced by the underlying tension of the threat posed by the Shadow Stream, while also developing the relationship between Wang Ling and Sun Rong further.
