> Ancient Love Poetry Recap
Qingmu personally cooked for Gujun. Houchi pleased Gujun by feeding him. Gujun knew deep down that this might be the only meal he would ever eat like this in his life, so he ate freely without restraint. Seeing Gujun eat happily, Houchi was also very pleased. However, Gujun gave ten luminous pearls to Qingmu and told him to leave Qingchi Palace. Qingmu once again expressed his love for Houchi to Gujun.
Gujun still did not agree to them being together and only had Feng Ran escort Qingmu out of Qingchi Palace. Gujun repeatedly opposed their relationship. Houchi wanted to know Gujun's thoughts. Gujun only said that he had his own difficulties and could not make the decision regarding this matter. Houchi, in front of Gujun, began to doubt her own identity.
Gujun knew Houchi had grown up and that he should no longer hide it from her, so he told her about her past. Inside Houchi's body was hidden a powerful divine consciousness, and Houchi was that divine consciousness. In the catastrophe sixty thousand years ago, Gujun desperately used all his divine power to preserve a wisp of Shanggu's divine consciousness.
However, that wisp of divine consciousness was too weak, so Gujun nurtured it in the Huajing Pool for a thousand years, giving birth to Houchi. As for Baixuan, he was merely an ordinary immortal lord. Back then, it was Baixuan who helped him seal that divine consciousness of Shanggu. Gujun sealed Shanggu's divine consciousness because of her dying wish.
When she was undergoing the Tribulation of Chaos, she said she only wished not to become a god in her next life. Upon hearing this, Houchi felt only loss in her heart. She believed she was merely a transformation of a wisp of divine consciousness. Baixuan and Gujun treated her so well only because of Shanggu. Even if it made her a laughingstock in the three realms, they were indifferent. From beginning to end, Houchi was just a joke.
Houchi cried and ran out of Qingchi Palace. Qingmu looked at Houchi's heartbroken appearance and only thought she was upset with Gujun, so he couldn't help but offer comfort. Houchi shook her head. She already knew Gujun was not her father. She only asked Qingmu if he liked her, Houchi. Qingmu immediately affirmed that he had liked Houchi for thousands upon thousands of years. Houchi did not know that she was Shanggu. She only pushed Qingmu away.
She wanted to know whether Qingmu would choose her or the wisp of divine consciousness within her body. Qingmu could not answer Houchi's question. Houchi felt extremely sad deep down and disappeared before Qingmu. Before Qingmu could chase after her, Gujun appeared before Qingmu. He told Qingmu Houchi's true identity and told him to think clearly about his own heart. When the divine consciousness within Houchi awakened, she would lose all her memories, and Houchi would cease to exist.
And now Qingmu himself couldn't even figure out his own true identity, so how could he talk about his love for Houchi? Feng Nv, following Wu Huan's orders, abducted a renowned general of the Demon clan in the name of the Immortal clan, instigating conflict between the two clans. Afterwards, she secretly led troops to support Jing Yang under Wu Huan's command, helping Jing Yang incite rebellion within the Demon clan.
Inside Dibei City, Houchi accidentally saved Bai Shuo, the daughter of City Lord Bai, from the hands of the Demon clan, and she had already set up an immortal barrier to resist the Demon clan's invasion. City Lord Bai thanked Houchi for her help, but recently many children had gone missing in the city. City Lord Bai didn't know how to protect the city's people and hoped Houchi would stay and lend her strong support.
Houchi stayed in the city helping City Lord Bai protect the people. Qingmu found Houchi but knew she didn't want to see him, so he only protected her secretly. The demons and monsters in the city were subordinates of the Three-Headed Fire Dragons. Sixty thousand years ago, the Heavenly Emperor set an agreement that neither the Immortal clan nor the Demon clan should step into the human realm.
This time, with the Three-Headed Fire Dragons attacking, Houchi guessed something had happened in the Demon Realm, so she sent the instruction feather to Tianqi, waiting for him in the human realm. Mu Guang came to Qingchi Palace to see Gujun. He brought up the matter of Tianqi the Demon God appearing and wanted to restart the God Realm to prevent Tianqi from reappearing and performing blood sacrifices on the three realms.
To restart the God Realm, it was necessary to gather the four divine artifacts. The Taicang Spear had already recognized Qingmu as its master, while the Sun-Moon Halberd in the Qingtian Pillar could not be opened. Mu Guang wanted Gujun to take Qingmu to the Qingtian Pillar to try. Qingmu might be able to use the power of the Taicang Spear to retrieve the Sun-Moon Halberd. This matter concerned the lives of the three realms.
Although Gujun and Mu Guang had an unresolved knot in their hearts, Gujun still agreed to Mu Guang and ordered Feng Ran to go to the human realm to bring Qingmu back. Mu Guang learned that Wu Huan had unilaterally increased troops for Jing Yang. He reprimanded Wu Huan a few times, telling her not to do it again. Wu Huan instigated conflict between the two clans to absorb the malevolent energy of the immortal generals who died in battle. Now was a critical moment for her divine power to greatly increase, and she was not willing to stop.
