> Ancient Love Poetry Recap
Bai Jue knew the pain of Qingmu and Houchi being separated for a hundred years, but bringing up the past again was useless, even he could not change this fate. Gujun was willing to keep this secret with Bai Jue. Bai Jue said that he already knew Wu Huan was responsible for the Phoenix tribe's matter, but he hadn't detected a trace of demonic energy on Wu Huan. Bai Jue didn't care about a mere Empress.
However, Bai Jue had been to the Yuanling Swamp and his divine power was damaged in order to delay the power of Chaos, so he could only deal with it carefully this time, not wanting any more accidents. The future was set. Bai Jue told Gujun to comfort Houchi well, and he had no choice but to be heartless. After Gujun left, Jing Zhao came to see Bai Jue.
She wanted to set the engagement and marry Bai Jue, marrying into Changyuan Hall, so that Bai Jue could have a complete break with Qingchi Palace. Bai Jue thought about it repeatedly and agreed to the matter. Houchi saw Shanggu in a dream. Seeing Shanggu's divine consciousness floating in the void, she had a conversation with Shanggu and told her about Qingmu. Shanggu didn't believe that Bai Jue would hurt others for his own selfish reasons.
Houchi argued back to Shanggu. Shanggu only said that everyone could only bear what fate brought them, just as she, as a True God, had to face the Tribulation of Chaos for the common people of the world, and her dying wish not to become a god in her next life was just to fulfill her desire to spend a lifetime with her beloved in the next life. Jing Jian was playing chess alone in front of Qingmu's cenotaph.
Bai Jue stood behind Jing Jian and knew the reason why he had always lost to Jing Jian when he was Qingmu, but he could not go forward and talk to Jing Jian; he had to control his emotions. Afterwards, Jing Jian came to the Heavenly Palace. He learned that Jing Zhao was marrying Bai Jue and volunteered to go to Luosha Land to guard. Mu Guang asked Jing Jian to first attend Jing Zhao and Bai Jue's wedding ceremony.
Then he brought up the disappearance of Elder Danfeng of the Phoenix tribe. Jing Jian also remembered Feng Ran's identity and secretly hid this unknown secret. After leaving the main hall, Jing Jian met Wu Huan. He avoided Wu Huan as if she were a monster. Wu Huan guessed that Jing Jian knew the secret of Wutong Forest, so she sent Feng Nv to investigate. The news of Bai Jue marrying Jing Zhao spread to Qingchi Palace.
Qingchi Palace wanted to hide it from Houchi. Gujun knew that this was the method Bai Jue came up with to cut ties with Houchi, but this method was too cruel for Houchi. Houchi found that the Soul Suppressing Pagoda at the bottom of Huajing Pond had disappeared. She guessed that this matter was related to Qingmu, so she prepared to go to the Northern Sea alone. Wu Huan had found Elder Danfeng.
She learned that Elder Danfeng had sent Feng Ran to Wutong Forest. It turned out that Feng Ran was the child of Fengyan and Wuxi. That year, Wu Huan told Danfeng to kill Feng Ran, but Danfeng softened her heart and secretly let Feng Ran go. Now she knew she wouldn't survive, so she only told Wu Huan that when the Phoenix King returned, what awaited Wu Huan would be endless purgatory. Wu Huan had always been ruthless.
Since she already knew that Feng Ran was the Phoenix King, she also wanted to kill Feng Ran. She lured Feng Ran to the Realm of Azure Sky in Bai Jue's name, and then secretly abducted Feng Ran. She tested Feng Ran and saw Feng Ran grow a pair of wings, which confirmed that Feng Ran was a Fire Phoenix. That year, Wu Huan was passed the position of Phoenix tribe chief.
The old chief had told her to guard the birth of the Phoenix King and then return the position of chief to the Phoenix King. The birth of the Phoenix King and rebirth through Nirvana was the hope of the Phoenix tribe, and Fengyan and Wutong were also killed by her own hands. Hearing about her background, Feng Ran wanted to kill Wu Huan to avenge herself, but she was trapped by Wu Huan in the Hunyuan Great Law.
After twelve hours, her spiritual power would be completely absorbed, turning her into a bone and blood spirit elixir. By then, Wu Huan would swallow her and become the true Phoenix King. Today was Jing Zhao and Bai Jue's wedding. Wu Huan had already deployed heavy Heavenly Palace troops in the Realm of Azure Sky. If Houchi dared to cause trouble, she would make sure Houchi came with no return.
On the other side, in the Northern Sea, Houchi came before the cenotaph and told Qingmu that she was pregnant. She had originally wanted to tell him in person in front of him, but she didn't expect that Qingmu had already left her. Qingmu left a reflection for Houchi before he left. Ever since Houchi rescued Baixuan, many memories that didn't belong to him were awakened.
As early as when he opened the ice coffin at the bottom of the Northern Sea, Qingmu realized that he was Bai Jue, and also Baixuan. He hoped that Houchi would not be sad because of him. Although his life was short, having Houchi was enough. He loved Houchi, his only wife in this life. Jing Jian had Feng Ran's instruction feather on him. The instruction feather changed, and he learned that something had happened to Feng Ran.
A feeling of anxiety and worry arose in his heart, so he followed the instruction feather to find Feng Ran. He desperately tried everything to save Feng Ran. As long as he was in the three realms, he would never allow anyone to harm Feng Ran, not even his mother, Wu Huan.
