> Resúmenes de Generation to Generation
Yin Sulian visited Qi Yunke late at night, bringing a medicinal soup to help him recover from his travels and seclusion. During their talk, she brought up the marriage between their daughter, Qi Lingbo, and Song Yuzhi, noting Lingbo’s deep concern during his absence. Qi Yunke remained firm, insisting that marriage must be based on mutual affection rather than force.
This provoked a bitter reaction from Yin Sulian, who accused Song Yuzhi of being just like Qi Yunke—falling for a woman from the Cai family and neglecting his duty. The argument resurfaced painful memories. Years ago, after Cai Pingshu’s death, Qi Yunke suspected Yin Sulian was responsible and fell into a state of grief and neglect.
Yin Sulian had mocked his tears, reminding him of his status as the Sect Leader of Qingque and claiming Cai Pingshu had many other men to mourn her. Despite his resentment toward the sect, Qi Yunke had stayed to fulfill his responsibilities. Back in the present, Qi Yunke admitted his internal energy was disordered, nearly leading to a cultivation deviation, and expressed his wish for Lingbo to find true happiness rather than a forced union.
Meanwhile, Mu Qingyan tried to use the Ziwei Scripture to neutralize the poison in his body, but the effort was futile. He recalled being told that the rare Purple Jade Golden Sunflower might be the key to his recovery. As Ruxin prepared to leave for a secluded life, Mu Qingyan asked her about the whereabouts of Lu Chengnan, the most loyal of the elders. Ruxin recalled that Lu had vanished after their master's death, noting his fondness for Osmanthus Wine.
Mu Qingyan connected this to a memory of a memorial service held by the late Chang patriarch, realizing the "old friend" being honored with Osmanthus Wine was likely Lu Chengnan. News of Cai Zhao’s impending marriage to Zhou Yuqi soon reached Mu Qingyan, leaving him anxious. In the Zhou household, Min Xinrou was equally distressed, fearing she would be displaced once Cai Zhao became the mistress of the manor. Zhou Yuqi comforted her, showing his deep affection.
Simultaneously, Cai Zhao received a mysterious note suggesting that Lu Chengnan had taken the Jade Sunflower to the Chang family and that their massacre was linked to it. Following her late aunt’s advice to follow her heart, Cai Zhao admitted she did not want to marry Zhou Yuqi and shared the new lead with Song Yuzhi.
The next day, Cai Zhao and Song Yuzhi used the anniversary of the Chang patriarch's death as a pretext to head to the Chang manor. They were joined by Qi Lingbo, Zhou Yuqi, and other disciples. However, the group split up when Min Xinrou fell ill with a cold, and Zhou Yuqi stayed behind to care for her. When the rest arrived at the Chang manor, they found Mu Qingyan and You Guanyue already searching for clues.
Qi Lingbo was outraged to discover that the man she knew as Chang Ning was actually Mu Qingyan, the Chief of the Li Sect. Fearing a losing battle, Cai Zhao intervened to maintain a tense peace, allowing both sides to depart separately. That evening, Mu Qingyan revealed he had purchased the only inn in town to ensure Cai Zhao stayed there. He visited her room with wontons, urging her not to marry Zhou Yuqi.
He shared his theory that Lu Chengnan had fled to the Chang manor while injured, and that the attackers had failed to find the Jade Sunflower during the massacre—which explains why they later kidnapped him while he was disguised as Chang Ning. When Mu Qingyan insulted the other sect leaders as hypocrites, Cai Zhao became defensive of her elders and ordered him to leave.
Outside, Mu Qingyan encountered Song Yuzhi, and the two exchanged sharp words regarding their reputations and betrothals. The following morning, Zhou Yuqi arrived at the inn to apologize for his delay. Seeing his bond with Min Xinrou, Cai Zhao suggested postponing their wedding, citing her need to avenge the Chang family and help Song Yuzhi. Nearby, Song Yuzhi finally told Qi Lingbo he wanted to break their engagement.
Devastated, Qi Lingbo refused to accept it, vowing to wait for him indefinitely. Later, Song Yuzhi informed Cai Zhao that he had initiated the cancellation of his own betrothal, promising to be more attentive to her in the future.
