Ancient Love Poetry Episode 8 Recap
> Ancient Love Poetry Recap
When the God-slaying Flower blooms, it releases the power of chaos, which only the Chief Gods of the three realms can absorb. It is extremely beneficial for cultivating the world's strongest power of chaos. Xuan Yi asked Bai Jue to hand Shanggu over to him, promising that within a thousand years, he would return a Chief God of Chaos to Bai Jue. Bai Jue did not finish listening to Xuan Yi's words.
He came to the Qiankun Platform and couldn't help but remember the previous premonition, knowing in his heart that only by letting Shanggu become the Chief God of Chaos could he change her predetermined fate. Bai Jue invited Shanggu to Changyuan Hall. Shanggu dressed up elaborately for the appointment; she directly changed into the ceremonial robe for Selection Day. A flash of amazement crossed Bai Jue's eyes. Bai Jue asked Shanggu to enjoy the feast on the table.
Shanggu mistakenly thought Bai Jue was going to confess his feelings to her today, but Bai Jue opened his mouth to say that he had found a good plan to let Shanggu take charge of the instruction feather of Chief God as early as possible; Shanggu needed to go to the Nether World herself for a thousand years to cultivate the power of chaos. Shanggu was unwilling to leave Bai Jue.
How could Bai Jue not want to accompany Shanggu there? It was just that Shanggu cultivated the power of chaos, and he could not accompany her; this time, Shanggu had to go alone. Bai Jue's star of romance was stirred. For the first time in tens of thousands of years, he felt compassion. He ordered Hong Ri to go down to the lower realm and transfer spiritual power to Wuxi, to help Wuxi transform into human form sooner.
For the two of them to be separated for a thousand years was still a bit too harsh. Selection Day is the day the God Realm chooses disciples. Among the outstanding individuals were Mu Guang from the Golden Dragon clan and Gujun from the Flood Dragon clan. Upon hearing that Gujun was from the Flood Dragon clan, Xue Ying couldn't help but mock him. He was extremely disdainful of Gujun's status.
The God Realm, apart from the Four True Gods, has always disregarded status. Gujun had entered the God Realm uprightly through his strength, so how could he tolerate Xue Ying's mockery and insult to his sect/clan? Therefore, Gujun stepped forward and started arguing with Xue Ying. Gujun's arrogance impressed Shanggu greatly. Shanggu immediately took Gujun as her disciple and made a bet with Xue Ying.
If Gujun's strength could not defeat Xue Ying after three months, she would voluntarily go to the Nether World to cultivate. Until she possessed the divine power to take charge of the power of chaos, she would not return to the God Realm. But if Xue Ying lost, he must abandon everything beautiful in the God Realm and leave the God Realm. Yuemi took Mu Guang as her disciple. Gujun entered Chaosing Hall. In the hall, he met Wu Huan.
After a conversation with Wu Huan, he learned that they had both cultivated in the same place before, and they were both of low status. For a moment, they couldn't help but feel a sense of mutual sympathy. There were a total of four disciples sent from the lower realm to the God Realm. Mu Guang and Gujun both found good places, while the other two were rejected by Tianqi because of their appearance.
The two of them were extremely unbalanced in their hearts. These words were overheard by Xue Ying, who was passing by. Xue Ying intentionally brought up the poisonous Nine-Clawed Lotus in the East Pond of Changyuan Hall, wishing to win the bet with Shanggu through the hands of the two of them. Gujun was diligent in his cultivation, wishing to earn some respect for Shanggu. However, the other two disciples from the lower realm came to trouble Gujun.
The two of them ambushed Gujun using the poisoned water from Changyuan Hall. While Gujun was resisting, the two of them accidentally splashed the poisoned water onto Tianqi, who was passing by. Gujun took the blame and was held by Zihan. After Shanggu learned the news, she came to find Tianqi. Tianqi originally planned to feign serious injury to get Shanggu's careful care and make Shanggu abandon the idea of going to the Nether World.
For him, the lives of the three realms were not as important as Shanggu alone. Shanggu saw through Tianqi's feigned illness at a glance. She had already accepted her mission and responsibility. Even if she was willful and reckless in the past, now she also understood the importance of taking charge of the instruction feather of Chief God. She would push herself to work hard and take charge of the instruction feather of Chief God as soon as possible.
Looking at such a sensible Shanggu, Tianqi felt a pang of heartache and became even more determined to protect Shanggu well. Mu Guang accidentally bumped into Wu Huan while passing by. Wu Huan's gentleness and kindness caught Mu Guang's attention. He looked at Wu Huan's receding figure and couldn't help but be slightly stunned, feeling unsettled. On the other side, Tianqi and Shanggu presided over the case of the poisoned water.
Tianqi knew that the two individuals from his sect/faction were certainly involved, so he punished the two of them with three lightning strikes each. As for Gujun, he was Shanggu's person, so he was naturally handed over to Shanggu to handle. Shanggu did not punish Gujun. Tianqi secretly discovered that Gujun was born with cold meridians and his spiritual power was unstable.
He frankly told Shanggu that Gujun would likely only be able to compete with Xue Ying if he ascended to God Lord status; otherwise, he would surely lose. Mu Guang and Gujun had a very good relationship. Upon learning that something had happened to Gujun, he quickly rushed to visit Gujun and decided to cultivate with Gujun together. In Changyuan Hall, Hong Ri discovered that one Nine-Clawed Lotus was missing from the East Pond.
The East Pond of Changyuan Hall had always been managed by Xue Ying, so this matter must be related to Xue Ying. After Bai Jue learned about this matter, he came to the Chaosing Hall to find Shanggu, preparing to explain the matter clearly to Shanggu and apologize. Shanggu originally liked Bai Jue, and now seeing Bai Jue take the initiative to find her, she couldn't help but smile.
