Popular vlogger Bryan Wu sets out to capture viral-worthy footage of creatures and magic under the guise of helping Yi and her friends get out their "creature awareness" message.
While Everest is going through some typical teenager growing pains, a welcome distraction comes in the form of LiLi, an adorable 9-year-old who is positively obsessed with Yi, Everest and the crew's pursuits.
The renowned and prosperity-bringing creature Qilin appears in front of Yi's building; while trying to protect Qilin from the mob of people hoping for their wishes to be granted, the crew is distraught when they lose track of the creature.
When the magical creatures vanish and the world at large goes gray, the crew travels to the Magical Realm to confront the omniscient Great Watcher, who has a tempting offer for Yi.
