Ancient Love Poetry Episode 5 Recap
> Ancient Love Poetry Recap
Bai Jue disliked interacting with others due to his childhood experiences. Shanggu tightly held Bai Jue's hand. She believed that interactions between people should not be only coldness and harshness. From now on, she would always accompany Bai Jue, and the two would advance and retreat together. Looking at the young girl holding him tightly in front of him, Bai Jue's heart was stirred at this moment. He couldn't help but hug Shanggu back, enjoying the warmth of the moment.
Tianqi was worried that Zhiyang would punish him upon his return. Yuemi comforted Tianqi by his side. However, when she learned that Tianqi only cared about Shanggu, Yuemi couldn't help but feel disappointed. Meanwhile, the Sun God and Moon Night were still entangled because of the God of Marriage, and even Tianqi and Yuemi had difficulty separating them. On the other side, Puhua came to the Joy Room. When he saw Bai Jue, he couldn't help but sweat for himself.
He honestly told Bai Jue his purpose: he had set up this banquet to facilitate the marriage between Tianqi and Shanggu, but he had mistakenly seen Bai Jue as Tianqi. Bai Jue did not heavily punish Puhua, only telling Puhua not to interfere with True Gods' marriages anymore, and that Puhua should act as if today's events never happened. He did not want to hear any rumors about this matter.
Bai Jue personally carried Shanggu back to the hall, but Shanggu slept the whole way. The crowd did not know that the Goddess Lord Bai Jue was holding was actually Shanggu. At this time, in the Chaocheng Hall, Zhiyang already knew about the Sun God and Moon Night simultaneously descending to the lower realm. He publicly questioned the two of them. Both were willing to take the blame for each other.
Seeing their truly deep affection, Yuemi stepped forward to speak for them, believing they were not at fault, and that the marriage rope from yesterday was also accidentally thrown onto them by her. The matter of the Marriage Rope was brought up, and Puhua quickly admitted his mistake. Zhiyang knew that the marriage conference was organized by Tianqi, and the fault was not Puhua's, but rather Yuemi's mischief. Yuemi was held accountable.
Tianqi then stepped forward to take responsibility for Yuemi. He took all the blame upon himself. Although Tianqi admitted everything, he felt he was not at fault, saying there was no need for such a fuss over just a common rope. Looking at such rebellious and willful Tianqi, Zhiyang was furious. He immediately punished Tianqi by confining him to the Ming Hall. Shanggu woke up. When she learned that Bai Jue had carried her back, she felt happy inwardly.
Meanwhile, the God Realm erupted in discussion because Bai Jue had carried a Goddess Lord. Everyone was speculating about the person Bai Jue favored. Only Xue Ying noticed Shanggu's dress and knew that the person Bai Jue had held was actually Shanggu. True Gods are different from mortals. Tens of thousands of years of solitude and loneliness made them ignorant of what love is. Shanggu's heart was stirred, but she was still unsure of her feelings.
She came to ask Puhua. After telling Shanggu a few things, Puhua gave her a bottle of wine and secretly slipped away. Shanggu took a few sips of strong wine. As she gazed at the sky full of stars, she couldn't help but think of Bai Jue. Thus, she came to Changyuan Hall to find Bai Jue and begged Bai Jue to take her to watch the stars. Bai Jue brought Shanggu to the Qiankun Platform.
Shanggu leaned against Bai Jue's shoulder, snuggling close to him, and watched the sky full of stars with him. Bai Jue had always been cold, but at this moment, he couldn't help but reveal a smile. However, soon after, he saw an omen on the Qiankun Platform. The omen indicated that Shanggu was in danger. Bai Jue was startled awake. Fearing that Shanggu would worry, he did not tell her.
Instead, he sought out Zhiyang, asking Zhiyang to seal off the Qiankun Platform, stating that he alone would guard it. Tianqi suffered the True God Thunder Punishment. Yuemi came to visit Tianqi. She brought up the matter of the Marriage Rope. Tianqi did not understand Yuemi's feelings and mistakenly thought Yuemi had taken a liking to another God Lord. Yuemi had no choice but to say that she had sought this rope to help Tianqi pursue Shanggu.
Moved by this, Tianqi wanted to become sworn brothers with Yuemi. In anger, Yuemi pushed Tianqi away and left the Ming Hall. Shanggu told Yuemi that she already had someone she admired. Yuemi immediately guessed that Shanggu liked Bai Jue. She gave Shanggu advice, telling Shanggu to do what Bai Jue liked. To please Bai Jue, Shanggu personally made a phoenix kite and flew it with Bai Jue at Changyuan Hall.
Looking at Shanggu's smiling face, Bai Jue couldn't help but smile as well. While the two were flying the kite, Bai Jue promised Shanggu that he would do his utmost to help Shanggu take charge of the God Realm as soon as possible. Eventually, wherever the divine light shone, it would carry the name of Shanggu's Chaos. Shanggu's divine channels had opened.
Bai Jue wrote an instruction feather to Feng Yun, the elder of the Phoenix clan, preparing for Shanggu to go to the Phoenix clan to choose a divine beast. If the Phoenix King could become Shanggu's divine beast, the Phoenix clan would surely become Shanggu's most loyal and powerful aid in the future.
