Eternal Love Recap

Episode 1 Recap

One hundred thousand years ago, Father God returned to chaos, and the ancient gods also departed one after another in response to their fate. And now, throughout the four seas and eight directions, only the Dragon Tribe, Phoenix Tribe, and Nine-Tailed White Fox Tribe of the divine Tribes still had some descendants remaining. Their status within the divine Tribes was particularly noble.

Bai Qian was a descendant of the Nine-Tailed White Fox Tribe and the youngest daughter of Fox Emperor Bai Zhi. Because she was mischievous since she was young, she caused quite a few troubles.

The Fox Emperor and Empress, wanting to find someone to discipline this naughty young daughter, asked Zhe Yan, the first fire phoenix since the creation of the world, to transform her into a male and sent her to Kunlun Void to apprentice under Zhe Yan's brother, High God Mo Yuan. Mo Yuan was the legitimate son of Father God.

Because of his bravery in battle and boundless magical power, he was therefore also known as the God of War in the immortal realm. On this day, a treasure appeared in Kunlun Void. All the disciples were scrambling to chase after it. In the end, it was High God Mo Yuan who intervened to subdue this treasure. It turned out to be a folding fan.

After the disciples paid their respects to Mo Yuan, they congratulated their master on obtaining another treasure. No treasures had appeared in Kunlun Void since the Donghuang Bell. Now this treasured fan appeared out of nowhere. Mo Yuan had a premonition that he would likely be taking on new disciples soon. Zhe Yan brought Bai Qian to Kunlun Void. Bai Qian curiously looked around. Zhe Yan transformed Bai Qian into a male. Bai Qian was confused.

Zhe Yan explained that Kunlun Void never accepts female disciples. If you want to become an apprentice and learn skills, you must appear as a male. Zhe Yan gave Bai Qian the alias Si Yin. From now on, she was no longer the youngest daughter of the Fox Emperor, but a wild fox he had picked up, specifically sent to Kunlun Void to become an apprentice. Si Yin worried if her identity would be exposed.

Zhe Yan joked that others in Kunlun Void wouldn't be able to tell, but whether High God Mo Yuan could see through her female identity would depend on luck. Si Yin and Zhe Yan arrived before the main hall. Unexpectedly, someone was already waiting in front of the hall to become an apprentice. Suddenly, a treasured fan flew from the sky. This object flew directly in front of Si Yin and stopped. Si Yin, confused, accepted the treasured fan.

Mo Yuan and the disciples arrived before the hall. Seeing that the treasured fan had chosen Si Yin as its master, Mo Yuan recognized Si Yin's female identity at a glance, but he did not expose it. After Si Yin saw Mo Yuan's esteemed appearance, she couldn't help but mutter to herself. She had thought the God of War of the four seas and eight directions would have three heads and six arms.

Unexpectedly, he was a young man who looked even more charming than Zhe Yan. Mo Yuan knew in his heart that this treasured fan absolutely could not fall into the hands of anyone outside Kunlun Void. It seemed this little girl before him was his destined disciple. Si Yin stepped forward and returned the treasured fan to Mo Yuan, and followed the disciples into the main hall.

The person who arrived at the main hall one step before Si Yin was named Zi Lan. Mo Yuan sought Zhe Yan's opinion. Since these two came to apprentice at the same time today, who should be the senior disciple? Si Yin secretly transmitted a message to Zhe Yan, saying she absolutely did not want to be the junior disciple.

After Zhe Yan heard this, he deliberately told Mo Yuan, "How about letting this little fox of mine be the junior disciple?" After Si Yin heard this, she strongly disagreed. She complained unhappily that she was the youngest at home, and now, having finally come out to apprentice, she still had to be the junior disciple. If it was like this, she might as well not apprentice at all. Si Yin was about to leave in a huff.

Mo Yuan spoke up, saying, "If you have to be the junior disciple, how about giving this treasured fan to you?" Si Yin received the treasured fan and only then relented. Mo Yuan named this treasured fan the Jade Purity Kunlun Fan. Thus, Zi Lan became Mo Yuan's sixteenth disciple, and Si Yin was the seventeenth. Because Si Yin was the lowest ranked, her senior brothers later habitually called her Little Seventeen.

At this time, the Heavenly Monarch was summoning the various immortal families. The First Highness returned and reported to the Heavenly Monarch about Mo Yuan taking on a disciple. When the Heavenly Monarch learned that Mo Yuan had given the treasured fan, which could awe the four seas, to a fox, he couldn't help but become angry. In a flash, Bai Qian, using the alias Si Yin, had been studying under her master Mo Yuan for twenty thousand years.

Si Yin was naturally mischievous. On this day, she and her senior brother Zi Lan came again to the streets of the mortal realm to practice bone-reading and fortune-telling. They happened to encounter a woman in white sitting on the ground being harassed by ruffians. The two joked that this was definitely another scene of a hero saving a beauty. As expected, there was indeed a hero who stepped forward.

To avoid being discovered by their master, Si Yin and Zi Lan quickly returned to Kunlun Void. Unexpectedly, this woman was no stranger. She was High Goddess Yao Guang, who had fought enemies alongside Mo Yuan in the past. Yao Guang followed Si Yin all the way back to Kunlun Void, but the look in this High Goddess's eyes towards Si Yin was only disgust and disdain.

Mo Yuan still discovered that Si Yin and Zi Lan had secretly gone to the mortal realm to practice bone-reading and fortune-telling for people. The senior-most disciple pleaded for the two junior disciples. Mo Yuan did not blame the two of them. He had everyone else go out, leaving only Si Yin. Mo Yuan took Si Yin to the back room.

He told Si Yin that he had passed by Zhe Yan's place today and brought back three pots of Peach Blossom Wine from him. Si Yin had loved alcohol since she was young, especially Zhe Yan's brewed Peach Blossom Wine was her absolute favorite. Si Yin was extremely happy hugging the Peach Blossom Wine.

Mo Yuan said that tomorrow was her birthday, and this wine was specifically brought back to celebrate her birthday, and instructed Si Yin not to be greedy with the wine. Si Yin was walking happily while hugging the wine. Unexpectedly, she was knocked unconscious and knew nothing. The Peach Blossom Wine she was holding in her arms also shattered all over the ground.

After she woke up, she found a woman in white sitting on the ground in front of her. Only then did Si Yin realize that this person was High Goddess Yao Guang. She had long heard from her senior brothers that this High Goddess Yao Guang had admired her master for many years but had never been loved back. For Mo Yuan, Yao Guang had even moved her immortal dwelling to Kunlun Void.

Si Yin thought to herself, 'This is bad. This woman couldn't have failed to win over her master, so she wants to target me to create further entanglement with her master, right?' Yao Guang immobilized Si Yin and haughtily declared that if Si Yin was willing to be a maid in her immortal dwelling, she would release her.

Si Yin retorted indignantly, saying it was truly shameful for a woman to use every means to pursue a man who did not love her. A single finger of her master was tens of thousands of times better than her, so how could she possibly apprentice under her? High Goddess Yao Guang, enraged by Si Yin, ordered her people to lock Si Yin in the water dungeon to make her suffer greatly.

The ninth senior brother accidentally discovered the broken wine pot on the ground and quickly went to find the senior-most disciple. He said that this Peach Blossom Wine was Si Yin's favorite, and she wouldn't have possibly broken it. Someone must have kidnapped Si Yin, and the wine pot was broken in the panic. Everyone searched everywhere but found no trace of Si Yin.

Everyone speculated that someone who could move freely within Kunlun Void and remain undetected could probably only be High Goddess Yao Guang. The senior-most disciple came to report Si Yin's matter to Mo Yuan. Mo Yuan rushed to Yao Guang's immortal dwelling with his disciples. In front of the water dungeon door, Mo Yuan and Yao Guang faced each other with drawn blades. Mo Yuan declared angrily that he must take Si Yin away today.

Yao Guang was no match for Mo Yuan. (Mo Yuan) entered the water dungeon. Mo Yuan used his magical power to break open the water dungeon and rescued Si Yin from the water. Si Yin weakly fainted in Mo Yuan's arms. Mo Yuan carried Si Yin out of the water dungeon and announced regarding today's matter that he would have a decisive battle with High Goddess Yao Guang on the peak of Cangwu in three days.

Yao Guang was greatly shocked. She hadn't expected Mo Yuan would actually fight her in a decisive battle for a junior disciple. She tearfully claimed that everything she had done was to prevent Mo Yuan from being criticized for favoring Si Yin as a disciple. Mo Yuan said indifferently, "When have I ever feared what others say?" Mo Yuan brought Si Yin back to Kunlun Void. While unconscious, Si Yin kept calling for Master.

Mo Yuan held Si Yin's hand and gently patted her, softly comforting her, "Master is here, Master is here." The Heavenly Monarch's First Highness came to Mo Yuan's place, ordered by the Heavenly Monarch to mediate the matter of Yao Guang and Mo Yuan's great battle. Mo Yuan firmly stated that this decisive battle had to happen, but this was merely a private matter between him and Yao Guang.

If one day, the divine Tribes and the Wing Tribe were to go to war, whether it be Kunlun Void or Yao Guang's immortal dwelling, they would fight the enemy together. This was righteousness. Three days later, Mo Yuan and Yao Guang had their great battle on the peak of Cangwu. Mo Yuan won. He only demanded that Yao Guang move out of Kunlun Void.

Yao Guang asked Mo Yuan if he truly didn't consider their camaraderie during the great war between gods and demons at all. Mo Yuan stated frankly, "The feelings back then were not even deep, so how could there be any talk of consideration?" Si Yin woke up and learned that her master had fought a decisive battle with High Goddess Yao Guang for her sake. She insisted on going to the peak of Cangwu to stop her master.

The senior-most disciple stopped Si Yin and tried to dissuade her, saying, "With your meager cloud-riding ability, by the time you reach the peak of Cangwu, your master will already be back in Kunlun Void." At this moment, the tenth senior brother came in and told Si Yin that a woman had arrived from Green Hills to see her.

Si Yin walked to the main hall and found that the visitor was none other than Xuan Nv, the sister-in-law of her eldest brother. Xuan Nv did not know that Si Yin was Bai Qian. Looking at Si Yin, dressed as a male, she was not only surprised. Xuan Nv believed her own appearance was somewhat similar to Bai Qian's. She hadn't expected there would be a man whose appearance was so strikingly similar to Bai Qian's.

Si Yin was also greatly surprised upon seeing Xuan Nv, wondering what matter Xuan Nv would suddenly come to see her about. Xuan Nv told Si Yin that the daughter of Bai Qian's second elder brother, High God Bai Yi, was about to be born, and everyone in Green Hills rushed to celebrate the birth of the little princess. Xuan Nv brought a personal letter from Bai Qian's fourth elder brother, High God Bai Zhen.

After reading, Si Yin learned that Xuan Nv's father insisted on marrying Xuan Nv to a black bear spirit. Xuan Nv refused and hid at Bai Qian's eldest sister-in-law's place. But Green Hills was not an ideal hiding place. As long as she was sent to Si Yin's place, they hoped Xuan Nv could hide in Kunlun Void for a while. Although Si Yin was hesitant, she couldn't bear to disregard it. She went to ask for her master's opinion.

Mo Yuan agreed to let Xuan Nv stay there for a while. Si Yin was about to leave, feeling relieved. Mo Yuan told Si Yin, asking how the thirty thousand repetitions of the Chongxu Sutra he had punished her to copy were coming along. Si Yin pretended to be in a difficult position and pleaded with Mo Yuan if he could reduce the amount a little.

Mo Yuan sternly said no. Si Yin had no choice but to obediently go and accept the punishment. Si Yin arranged for Xuan Nv to stay across from her own residence. Xuan Nv called out to Si Yin and cautiously asked her if anyone had ever said that she and Qian Qian looked exactly alike when she used to live in the Ten-Mile Peach Blossom Forest. Si Yin was awkwardly unsure how to answer and quickly left, making an excuse.

Si Yin came to the side of the pond to say goodbye to a little golden lotus. She said that starting from today, she had to go and copy the sutras and feared she wouldn't be able to come and take care of it for a long time. Si Yin turned and left. Behind her, the golden lotus emitted a golden light. . .

Episode 2 Recap

After Si Yin left, Mo Yuan came to the lotus pond. He recalled that Father God had given him this golden lotus and entrusted him to nurture it with immortal magic until it took human form. Xuan Nv happened to pass by the lotus pond and saw Mo Yuan standing beside it. She stepped forward to greet the High God. Mo Yuan only said, "You are Si Yin's friend," and did not speak further with her.

Ling Yu came to find his master. Mo Yuan told him that he would be in seclusion for the next few days, and Si Yin would be under his care. He was to ensure she finished copying the thirty thousand repetitions of the Chongxu Sutra. Mo Yuan said worriedly, "In half a month, it will be Si Yin's heavenly tribulation for ascension. Si Yin is naturally lazy and not diligent in cultivation.

If anything goes wrong at this time, the consequences would be unimaginable." Ling Yu finally understood that the master wanted Si Yin to be punished because he wanted to keep her in Kunlun Void and prevent her from running around. Ling Yu finally understood the master's thoughtful intentions. On this day, Si Yin finished copying the sutra. Si Yin had always been thinking about her second elder brother's daughter's birth.

She wanted to go back to Green Hills to see, but her master wouldn't let her leave and even had her senior brother Ling Yu watch her. Si Yin had an idea. Knowing that her senior brother Ling Yu most admired the Fox Emperor and Zhe Yan, she tempted him. The little princess was born, and the Fox Emperor and Zhe Yan would definitely be there.

Si Yin said she knew a shortcut to Green Hills that would only take one morning for a round trip. Ling Yu couldn't resist Si Yin's temptation, and the two of them secretly slipped out of Kunlun Void and went to Green Hills. As they walked, they accidentally entered the territory of the Wing Tribe. Within the Wing Tribe's territory, only High Gods could come and go freely. Lesser deities like them had no magical power here.

Just as the two were at a loss, a pair of black-clad figures suddenly appeared from nowhere and attacked on sight. With no other choice, Si Yin and Ling Yu had to fight the enemy with bare hands. At this critical moment, a whistle suddenly sounded, and the black-clad figures all committed suicide in unison. This greatly startled Si Yin and Ling Yu. Just as the two were about to leave, many people suddenly rushed up from behind.

Si Yin and Ling Yu recognized the approaching person as the Winged Monarch Qing Cang. The two were terrified, not expecting to have alerted the Winged Monarch. Si Yin feigned calmness and reported their identities, claiming that she and Ling Yu were disciples of Zhe Yan. Because they had guarded the Ten-Mile Peach Blossom Forest for many years, they had no intention of offending the sacred land of the Wing Tribe; they had merely gotten lost accidentally.

She hoped the Winged Monarch would spare them. Someone in front reported to the Winged Monarch that the rebels they were chasing had all died unnatural deaths. Si Yin quickly explained that they had attacked them first, and they had only killed them out of necessity to save their lives. The Winged Monarch ordered his men to take the two to the Great Purple Palace as guests.

Princess Yan Zhi of the Wing Realm was very happy upon seeing Si Yin's fair and clean appearance. Inside the Great Purple Palace, there were crowds of beautiful women and continuous singing and dancing. The Winged Monarch brought Si Yin and Ling Yu in and had them enjoy it together. The Winged Monarch asked Yan Zhi where her second elder brother had gone.

The First Prince said sourly that even though there were throngs of beauties in the palace, the Second Prince insisted on going to the mortal realm for pleasure. The Winged Monarch was very pleased to see Ling Yu. He wanted Ling Yu to acknowledge him as his foster father. Ling Yu and Si Yin were startled. Ling Yu was afraid of enraging the Winged Monarch and didn't know how to refuse. Si Yin stepped forward to plead for Ling Yu.

Unexpectedly, the Winged Monarch directly exposed their identities. The Winged Monarch said angrily, "You two are clearly Mo Yuan's disciples, not Zhe Yan's people at all!" He ordered his men to lock up Ling Yu and Si Yin separately. Si Yin was unhappy in the prison cell. After living for tens of thousands of years, she was either captured because Yao Guang liked her master, or captured because the Winged Monarch wanted to acknowledge a foster son.

Si Yin became angrier the more she thought about it, angry that she had lived so long and kept being a foil for others. The Second Prince of the Celestial Realm brought a diplomatic gift to the Wing Tribe. Unexpectedly, the Winged Monarch's rebellious intentions were already clear. Not only did he not accept the gift, but he also had someone coax the Second Prince out.

In the great hall of the Celestial Realm, the Second Prince reported the actions of Qing Cang of the Wing Tribe to the Heavenly Monarch. The Heavenly Monarch was furious. Dong Hua declared, "What is there to fear with Mo Yuan here? Moreover, the Donghuang Bell was created by Mo Yuan; he will surely have a way to suppress it."

The next day, just as Si Yin was agonizing over how to escape, a black bird suddenly flew in from outside the room. It turned out that Yan Zhi had specially sent the black bird to save Si Yin and help her escape. Yan Zhi said that Si Yin could find the way out by following the black bird. Si Yin hesitated, worried if this might be a trap by the Wing Tribe.

But then she thought, "I'm already a prisoner; what is there left for others to set a trap for?" So Si Yin decided to follow the black bird and see if she could escape. Led by the black bird, Si Yin arrived deep in the forest. The black bird suddenly disappeared. Just as Si Yin thought she was safe, she unexpectedly found someone else by the lakeside. This person was none other than Li Jing.

The first time Li Jing saw Si Yin, although Si Yin was disguised as a man, her appearance still deeply attracted Li Jing. Li Jing noticed that Si Yin's clothes were very nice. He was just wondering what gift to give the Winged Monarch for his birthday. He asked Si Yin to give him these clothes. Si Yin, remembering that she was a girl, naturally refused to take off her clothes.

Seeing Si Yin's squirming manner, Li Jing simply reached out and started pulling at her clothes. Si Yin struggled to evade him, and in their struggle, the two accidentally fell into the lake. The black-clad figures searching for Si Yin happened to pass by the lakeside. Li Jing gave Si Yin mouth-to-mouth resuscitation through her palm, saving Si Yin's life. After coming ashore, Li Jing only then realized that Si Yin was actually a person of the Celestial Tribe.

Unexpectedly, the black-clad figures appeared from behind a rock at this moment. To save Si Yin, Li Jing reprimanded the black-clad figures and ordered them to leave, then brought Si Yin back to his own place. Li Jing and Si Yin drank wine. Si Yin, who couldn't hold her liquor well, got drunk and passed out. Just then, Yan Zhi appeared. Yan Zhi looked at Si Yin with a deeply affectionate expression.

Li Jing saw how much his sister liked this young man, and that this person was also so compatible with him. Li Jing promised Yan Zhi that he would definitely help her rescue Si Yin and would not let her die in the Great Purple Palace.

Episode 3 Recap

Several days later, Li Jing was in his palace enjoying music and dance with beautiful women when Si Yin finally sobered up and came to see him. Li Jing asked Si Yin if she knew how long she had been asleep. Si Yin, still dazed, was shocked when Li Jing told her it had been a full ten days. Worried about her ninth senior brother's safety, Si Yin inquired about his condition over the past few days.

Li Jing informed her that Ling Yu was extremely stubborn—he had slit his wrists, attempted drowning, and had recently started a hunger strike. Si Yin grew increasingly anxious upon hearing this. Li Jing then delivered even worse news: Qing Cang had already sent out invitations for the adoption ceremony across the realms, making it widely known. Until the ceremony began, Si Yin would have no chance to see her ninth senior brother.

Si Yin begged Li Jing to deliver a letter to Ling Yu for her. Just then, the First Prince suddenly arrived. To avoid suspicion, Li Jing quickly pushed Si Yin down onto the bed, pretending they were indulging in pleasure. The First Prince angrily scolded Li Jing for daring to covet the immortal envoy their father had captured. Li Jing retorted mockingly, "Why wouldn't I dare? Father only needs Ling Yu to threaten Mo Yuan.

This Si Yin is just a minor immortal envoy disguised as a man." The First Prince left in anger. Li Jing then pretended to expose Si Yin's disguise, startling her into admitting she was indeed a woman. Li Jing confided in Si Yin that he had already made arrangements to help her escape the Great Purple Palace on the third day of the next month. Si Yin couldn't understand why the Second Prince of the Wing Tribe would help her.

Li Jing straightforwardly said he felt a connection with her and considered her a friend, regardless of whether she reciprocated. Touched, Si Yin promised that no matter what happened between the Celestial and Wing Tribes in the future, she would always consider Li Jing a friend first. Knowing Si Yin was a woman, Li Jing couldn't help but worry for his younger sister Yan Zhi. He asked Si Yin if she could take Yan Zhi with her when escaping.

Si Yin hesitated, explaining that Yan Zhi's identity was complicated, and as a woman herself, she couldn't take care of Yan Zhi. Li Jing understood and dropped the matter. Since discovering Si Yin was a woman, Li Jing had been restless. He drank alone by the lotus pond, where a seductive female demon tried to approach him. Normally, he would have welcomed such advances, but today, all he could think of was Si Yin's voice and smile.

Repulsed by the demon, he left. On his way back, Li Jing encountered his sister Yan Zhi, who asked about his plans to help Si Yin escape. Li Jing told her that with their father sending out invitations, war with the Celestial Tribe seemed inevitable. If they let Si Yin go, it might be even harder to see her again in the future.

Though reluctant, Yan Zhi acknowledged that love between the Wing and Celestial Tribes was doomed, so her feelings were futile. Li Jing felt helpless, both for Yan Zhi and himself. While Si Yin was sleeping in her room, Li Jing drunkenly barged in. He slurred that he had a secret to tell her—he liked her—before attempting to undress her. Si Yin, panicked, pushed him away forcefully. Li Jing collapsed onto the bed and passed out.

Si Yin rolled him up in a mat and placed him at the foot of the bed. Though angry at his audacity, she couldn't deny a faint flutter of excitement. The next day, Li Jing woke up in shock, asking Si Yin how he ended up in her room. Embarrassed, Si Yin explained that he had drunkenly come to her room the night before, confessing his feelings. Li Jing, flustered, fled immediately.

--- Dong Hua listened as the Star Officer reported Qing Cang's widespread invitations for adopting a disciple from Kunlun Void as his foster son. Dong Hua worried that Qing Cang was truly preparing for war with the Celestial Tribe. He ordered the Star Officer to investigate the Great Purple Palace in detail, especially the status of Qing Cang's princes and princesses.

At Kunlun Void, the eldest senior brother led a team to gather information about Si Yin and Ling Yu, while the second senior brother remained to guard the mountain. When Qing Cang's invitation arrived, everyone was furious, demanding to rescue their fellow disciples and refusing to let Qing Cang humiliate them. Just as tensions peaked, Mo Yuan emerged from seclusion. He forbade his disciples from acting rashly, as the Wing Tribe had not yet formally declared war.

Mo Yuan decided to rescue Si Yin and Ling Yu himself, instructing the second senior brother to seal the mountain upon their return. Si Yin, worried about Ling Yu and her own predicament, sighed by the lotus pond. Yan Zhi approached, several times hinting at her feelings but too shy to confess outright. Si Yin noticed Yan Zhi's affection but didn't know how to reveal her own gender. Suddenly, Mo Yuan descended from the sky.

Overjoyed, Si Yin hugged him tightly, tearfully relieved. Mo Yuan comforted her softly, and the two prepared to rescue Ling Yu. Unbeknownst to them, Li Jing watched from behind a rock and followed secretly. Mo Yuan and Si Yin found Ling Yu on the brink of death. As Si Yin supported him and Mo Yuan prepared to leave, Qing Cang arrived with an army, blocking their path. Mo Yuan and Qing Cang engaged in a fierce battle.

At the critical moment, Li Jing intervened, allowing Mo Yuan, Si Yin, and Ling Yu to escape on a cloud back to Kunlun Void. For betraying his father, Li Jing was imprisoned, with Qing Cang decreeing no one could release him without permission. The First Prince, seeing Li Jing confined, secretly rejoiced. Si Yin's heavenly tribulation was imminent. Mo Yuan brought her to a secluded mountain, sealing her in a cave with magic.

As thunder roared, Mo Yuan endured the tribulation in her place. Witnessing her master's suffering, Si Yin was heartbroken. After ascending to High Goddess, she collapsed, and Mo Yuan, despite his own pain, carried her back. When Si Yin awoke, she rushed to find Mo Yuan, only to be stopped by the eldest senior brother. He urged her to cultivate diligently in the future, lest Mo Yuan suffer for her again.

Concerned for her master, Si Yin asked about his condition. The eldest senior brother told her Mo Yuan had entered seclusion after the tribulation. Without even grabbing her outer robe, Si Yin ran to Mo Yuan's seclusion site. Unable to enter, she knelt outside, weeping in remorse for her laziness and failure to foresee her own tribulation, which had forced Mo Yuan to endure it for her. She vowed to cook herself as nourishment for him once he emerged.

Though in seclusion, Mo Yuan heard her words and smiled, relieved she was unharmed. The golden lotus in the pond transformed into a human figure identical to Mo Yuan. He grumbled behind Si Yin, "Such a foolish fox. All this noise could easily cause Mo Yuan to lose control." Yan Zhi, knowing Li Jing was imprisoned, secretly freed him. The first thing Li Jing did upon regaining freedom was head to Kunlun Void to find Si Yin.

He had finally understood his feelings and couldn't wait a moment longer. After recovering, Si Yin resolved to study the Dao diligently and apologize to Mo Yuan upon his return. Noticing the ancient texts lacked detailed descriptions of the Donghuang Bell, she asked the eldest senior brother for clarification. He remarked that if she had been this diligent earlier, Mo Yuan wouldn't have had to endure her tribulation. Si Yin's guilt deepened. Just then, a disciple announced a visitor.

Wondering who it could be, Si Yin was overjoyed to see her fourth brother, Bai Zhen. She hugged him excitedly, nearly forgetting to maintain her male disguise in front of the eldest senior brother. Bai Zhen scolded Si Yin for leaving Kunlun Void and venturing into Wing Tribe territory. Si Yin explained she had only wanted to see her newborn niece and accidentally stumbled into the Wing Tribe's domain.

Before leaving, Bai Zhen tenderly reminded her that as Mo Yuan's disciple, she would inevitably join the battlefield if war broke out between the Celestial and Wing Tribes. No matter what, she must remember she had four older brothers who would always protect her. The Heavenly Monarch summoned Dong Hua, Zhe Yan, and others to discuss Qing Cang's rebellion.

Zhe Yan explained that since Father God's return to chaos, he had sealed his magical artifacts beneath Kunlun Mountain, rendering him powerless to help. After Zhe Yan left, the Heavenly Monarch lamented that most ancient High Gods had withdrawn from the world and would likely be of no assistance.

Dong Hua proposed a long-term solution: to ensure stability between the Celestial and Wing Tribes, they should support a prince who harbored no hostility toward the Celestial Tribe to replace Qing Cang. According to the Star Officer's intelligence, Qing Cang's eldest son, Li Yuan, was fiercely anti-Celestial and oppressed the second prince, Li Jing, who was more preoccupied with wine and women. The Heavenly Monarch agreed Li Jing was the ideal candidate for the next Winged Monarch.

Li Jing finally arrived at the foot of Kunlun Mountain. His fire qilin warned that the mountain's energy could clash with his Wing Tribe essence. Li Jing replied that he had never been so serious about anyone before—he had to see Si Yin. Leaving the qilin behind, he ascended alone. Halfway up, he was attacked by a swarm of swords but was saved by Zi Lan, who happened to pass by.

Li Jing claimed he was there to see Si Yin, who called him "big brother." Zi Lan, assuming no one would dare lie at Kunlun Void, led Li Jing to Si Yin. When Li Jing finally found Si Yin, he gripped her hands excitedly, declaring he was willing to abandon his status and position just to stay by her side.

Caught off guard, Si Yin hastily refused, citing her identity as a Kunlun Void disciple and pointing out Li Jing's reputation with women. Li Jing passionately recounted how he had thought of nothing but her while imprisoned by his father. Now, he was certain she was his true love, and no cost was too great to be with her.

Episode 4 Recap

Overwhelmed by Li Jing's affection, Si Yin could only avoid his declaration of love. Just then, the Eldest Disciple Brother arrived and drew his sword at Li Jing. Li Jing respected him as Si Yin's Eldest Disciple Brother and did not fight back. The Eldest Disciple Brother struck first. At the critical moment, both the Ninth Disciple Brother and Si Yin shielded Li Jing and pleaded for him. Si Yin told Li Jing to leave quickly.

Li Jing told Si Yin that he would definitely come back for her. The Eldest Disciple Brother ordered Zi Lan to chase after Li Jing. Afterwards, Zi Lan reported back to the Eldest Disciple Brother that Li Jing had gone towards the sealed cave. Zi Lan asked the Eldest Disciple Brother what was inside that cave, why the surrounding evil energy felt so strong.

The Eldest Disciple Brother said that the cave was a place borrowed by Lingbao Heavenly Venerable from their master, and he didn't know exactly what was sealed inside. In any case, their master had instructed them not to go near it. Now that Li Jing had stumbled into the cave by accident, whether he could escape depended on his own fate and fortune. With some free time, Si Yin took Xuan Nv for a stroll.

Xuan Nv inquired about the fight between the Eldest Disciple Brother and Li Jing that day. Si Yin was already bothered by the matter and didn't want to talk much about it. Xuan Nv also mentioned that she had heard from Qian Qian when they lived together in Qian Qian's cave dwelling that the current Winged Monarch, Qing Cang, had long harbored rebellious intentions and that a war between the divine Tribes and the Wing Tribe was inevitable.

Si Yin said with a touch of pride that with her master present, the Wing Tribe couldn't possibly succeed in their rebellion. As the two were talking, the Fire Kirin rushed over, pleading with Si Yin to save the Second Prince Li Jing. It turned out that Li Jing had trespassed into the sealed cave. Inside the cave was a Fire Phoenix. Perhaps it had been disturbed, as it fiercely attacked Li Jing. Li Jing struggled to defend himself.

After Si Yin arrived, she used the Jade Purity Kunlun Fan to subdue the Fire Phoenix after a few exchanges. Just as Si Yin was about to deal with the phoenix, Lingbao Heavenly Venerable sensed a disturbance in the seal and came to investigate.

It turned out that this Fire Phoenix was under Lingbao Heavenly Venerable, but because its evil nature had not been removed, Lingbao Heavenly Venerable had borrowed this cave under Kunlun Void from Mo Yuan, hoping to use the immortal energy of Kunlun Void to dispel the evil energy from the Fire Phoenix. Unexpectedly, today it had clashed with Si Yin and Li Jing.

To express his apologies to Si Yin and Li Jing, Lingbao Heavenly Venerable presented the Cloud Breaker Fan to Si Yin as a gift. The Heavenly Venerable said that although this Cloud Breaker Fan couldn't compare to the Jade Purity Kunlun Fan, how much power it could exert depended on the magical power of the user.

Unable to decline the kind offer, Si Yin accepted the fan and promised the Heavenly Venerable that she would never let this fan fall into the hands of someone with great power but bad character. After speaking, Si Yin and the Fire Kirin helped Li Jing leave. Si Yin settled Li Jing in a cave below Kunlun Mountain. Si Yin cared for Li Jing attentively.

Li Jing blamed himself for not only failing to protect Si Yin today but also needing her to save him. Si Yin comforted him, saying that this was Kunlun Void, and it was perfectly normal for the Wing Tribe to be unable to exert their divine power here. Li Jing felt inferior and feared he wasn't good enough for Si Yin.

Not knowing how to comfort him, Si Yin gave Li Jing a charm that allowed him free entry and exit from Kunlun Void. Si Yin instructed Li Jing to keep her identity as a woman a secret, as no one in Kunlun Void knew about it. Xuan Nv's mother arrived at Kunlun Void, demanding to take Xuan Nv back to marry that Black Bear Demon. Xuan Nv asked the Eldest Disciple Brother for help.

The Eldest Disciple Brother blocked Xuan Nv's mother and kindly advised her, asking why she was being so pushy as a mother when Xuan Nv didn't want to marry him. Unexpectedly, Xuan Nv's mother did not appreciate the Eldest Disciple Brother's kindness. She even reprimanded him, saying he had no right to stop her from taking her daughter. Si Yin and Zi Lan happened to pass by and stepped forward to pull Xuan Nv's mother away.

In her haste, Si Yin lied to Xuan Nv's mother, saying that the Eldest Disciple Brother was the Second Prince of the West Sea and that he and Xuan Nv were deeply in love. She suggested letting Xuan Nv stay in Kunlun Void for a few more days so their relationship could deepen further. Only then did Xuan Nv's mother give up.

The Eldest Disciple Brother was angry that Si Yin and Zi Lan used his marriage as a lie and frankly stated that he had no improper thoughts about Xuan Nv at all. Although Xuan Nv knew that the Eldest Disciple Brother didn't have any other romantic feelings for her, hearing him say this directly in front of Si Yin and Zi Lan left her quite offended.

Li Jing filled the charm Si Yin gave him with love poems and asked the Fire Kirin to deliver it to Si Yin in the evening. Si Yin and Xuan Nv happened to be strolling around. Xuan Nv saw the letter, opened it, and found it full of love poems. Embarrassed, Si Yin snatched the letter away and ran back to her room. Xuan Nv recalled the past, when she and Qian Qian lived together.

Xuan Nv had envied Si Yin's appearance since she was little. Later, with Qian Qian's help, Xuan Nv learned disguise from Zhe Yan and could transform into Qian Qian's likeness for a short time. After Si Yin left, Xuan Nv was angry in her heart, wondering why she couldn't compare to Qian Qian in anything. The Fire Kirin informed Si Yin that Li Jing might be contemplating suicide. Si Yin quickly ran to the cave below the mountain.

Li Jing was pretending to be dead, lying on the couch. No matter how Si Yin called him, he wouldn't wake up. Having no other choice, Si Yin made up her mind and said, "If you wake up, I'll agree." Li Jing was only pretending to be dead, and upon hearing Si Yin's words, he was overjoyed. The two of them had thus expressed their feelings for each other. They laughed and played around, and their affection grew deeper.

The next day, while doing her morning practice, Si Yin was still thinking about the Donghuang Bell. However, everyone spoke vaguely about the Donghuang Bell, leaving Si Yin with many doubts. She decided it would be better to ask her master after he finished his seclusion. After finishing her morning practice, Si Yin was about to go down the mountain to find Li Jing when Xuan Nv suddenly appeared and blocked her path.

Xuan Nv was trying to find out where Si Yin had been disappearing to after her morning practice recently, wondering whom she was meeting. Si Yin was evasive and didn't know how to answer. Xuan Nv looked wronged and complained to Si Yin, saying that ever since her mother came looking for her, not only was the Eldest Disciple Brother avoiding her, but now even Si Yin wouldn't spend time with her.

Unable to bear seeing Xuan Nv look so wronged, Si Yin had to tell her that she was going to see a friend, but because this friend's identity was very special, she hadn't told her. Xuan Nv pressed Si Yin, asking if her friend was the Wing Tribe's Second Prince. Seeing that she couldn't hide it from Xuan Nv any longer, Si Yin had to tell Xuan Nv about Li Jing hiding below Kunlun Mountain.

Xuan Nv's mind stirred, and she quickly said that Si Yin's friend was naturally her friend too, pleading with Si Yin to take her along. Si Yin couldn't refuse Xuan Nv and had to agree. Si Yin took Xuan Nv to Li Jing's location. Li Jing was very happy to see Si Yin and quickly presented her with a bamboo flute he had recently made.

Si Yin playfully complained that he had given her too many little trinkets recently, and the Eldest Disciple Brother was starting to get suspicious. Si Yin introduced Xuan Nv to Li Jing, saying that Xuan Nv was her distant cousin. When Li Jing first saw Xuan Nv, he felt that her appearance was quite similar to Si Yin's, and she also possessed a touch more charm and allure.

Li Jing's heart was startled, and his gaze lingered for a long time. Si Yin heard the sound of a celestial crane in the distance, and her heart stirred, thinking that her master was about to come out of seclusion. She hastily bid farewell to Li Jing and left with Xuan Nv. Li Jing was very disappointed to see Si Yin leave so quickly without saying much more to him.

Li Jing followed Si Yin back to Kunlun Void and only then learned that Si Yin had hurried away because she thought Mo Yuan was coming out of seclusion. Seeing how much Si Yin cared about Mo Yuan, Li Jing felt very unpleasant. He turned and left with a heavy heart. This scene was witnessed by Xuan Nv. Li Jing returned to the cave, touching the bamboo flute Si Yin hadn't had time to take with her.

He thought about how he had betrayed the Wing Tribe and traveled thousands of miles to Kunlun Void. Was this situation really what he wanted? While Li Jing was struggling with his thoughts, a figure appeared before his eyes. In the blur, he thought it was Si Yin, but upon closer look, he realized the person was Xuan Nv, wearing Si Yin's clothes. He felt a little disappointed in his heart.

Xuan Nv frankly stated that she had something to ask Li Jing. Did he know that the only person Si Yin cared for was Mo Yuan? He, a dignified Wing Tribe Prince, was humbling himself here waiting for someone else, what was it all for? Li Jing was struck hard by Xuan Nv's words. Although he wouldn't verbally admit what Xuan Nv said, his heart was already shaken.

Seizing the opportunity while Li Jing was distracted, Xuan Nv transformed into Si Yin's appearance and looked at Li Jing with a charming smile. Looking at Si Yin, who was so alluring, Li Jing couldn't even tell if the person in front of him was real or fake. Xuan Nv and Li Jing spent the night together, and she was extremely overjoyed in her heart.

Returning to Kunlun Void from the mountain, she was almost discovered by the Eldest Disciple Brother. A few days later, Si Yin and Li Jing agreed to go to the mortal realm together to watch plays for amusement, but something urgent came up, so Si Yin had to let Xuan Nv go meet Li Jing first. Li Jing and Xuan Nv were alone together again. Li Jing felt very guilty about what happened that day.

He told Xuan Nv that what he did that day was not only unfair to Xuan Nv but even more so to Si Yin. Xuan Nv said that everything she did was out of her own free will. Si Yin arrived in a hurry. Li Jing cared for Si Yin affectionately. Xuan Nv felt displeased and found an excuse to leave.

Si Yin asked Li Jing if he knew a place in the mortal realm called Mount Junji in the Eastern Wilderness. Li Jing had not heard of this place. Si Yin said that she and her disciple brothers used to often go there to play. Si Yin also agreed with Li Jing that they would go there together in the future. Returning to Kunlun Void, Si Yin was studying Daoist theories and doing her practice.

The Eldest Disciple Brother came to find Si Yin angrily, stating frankly that he regretted not beating Li Jing to death that day. Now, he hadn't abducted Disciple Brother Si Yin, but he had lured away Xuan Nv. Si Yin was shocked to hear this and quickly asked her Disciple Brother why he said that.

The Eldest Disciple Brother said that he had just seen Li Jing and Xuan Nv strolling hand-in-hand below the mountain, which was truly unbearable to witness. Hearing this, Si Yin quickly ran down the mountain. Unexpectedly, upon entering the cave, Si Yin walked right in on Li Jing and Xuan Nv together. Si Yin's heart sank as if into a bottomless abyss.

Episode 5 Recap

Li Jing was startled to see Si Yin arrive and could only kneel before her, begging for her forgiveness. Before Si Yin could question him, Li Jing stated frankly that there would be no outcome between the divine Tribes and the Wing Tribe. Xuan Nv even chimed in from the side, saying that she and Li Jing truly loved each other and hoped Si Yin would grant them their wish.

Hearing Li Jing's explanation, Si Yin was truly angry in her heart. Back then, Li Jing had promised her that no matter what, he would brave it together with her. Yet now he was saying that the divine Tribes and the Wing Tribe were impossible. Looking at Xuan Nv, who was poorly dressed, Si Yin's anger burned even more fiercely. She had kindly taken Xuan Nv in, only to be repaid with treachery.

Li Jing even spoke nonsense to Si Yin, telling her to fly away with Mo Yuan as a pair. Si Yin was completely disheartened by Li Jing and did not want to see the two of them again. She turned and left. Returning to Kunlun Void, Si Yin felt depressed and drank to drown her sorrows. In the wine cellar, Si Yin burned the love letters and all the small trinkets Li Jing had given her.

For thousands of years, Si Yin had not known what love was. But Si Yin never expected that the stirring of love would lead to heartbreak. Drunk, Si Yin fell into a deep sleep in the wine cellar. When she woke up, she found that her master had come out of seclusion. He was sitting beside her, watching her with eyes full of concern.

Mo Yuan teased Si Yin, saying that if he hadn't come out of seclusion, given that Si Yin had started a fire in the wine cellar without permission, she probably would have burned half of Kunlun Void down. Si Yin heard her master's voice and saw his face, finally finding comfort for her restless heart. Si Yin leaned on Mo Yuan's knee and asked her master why he had come out of seclusion so early.

Mo Yuan saw that even Si Yin's sadness was half-hearted and knew that this matter would fade in her heart. Si Yin asked if Mo Yuan's body had recovered. Mo Yuan comforted her, saying he was fine. Si Yin asked Mo Yuan about the Donghuang Bell. Mo Yuan questioned why Si Yin would suddenly bring up the matter of the Donghuang Bell.

Si Yin told her master that she only knew the Donghuang Bell was made by her master, Mo Yuan, but now it was in Qing Cang's hands. She didn't understand how this divine artifact, capable of destroying heaven and earth, could be in the Wing Tribe's realm.

Mo Yuan slowly explained that during the great war between the divine Tribes and demons, the divine Tribes, in order to reach an agreement with the Wing Tribe, Father God had given the Donghuang Bell to Qing Cang as a token of sincerity. Mo Yuan also told Si Yin that the Donghuang Bell's power was immense, and the only way to stop it was for a powerful primordial spirit to sacrifice itself to seal it.

Mo Yuan said that in this world, the only primordial spirits capable of sealing the Donghuang Bell were from the divine Tribes, the Phoenix Tribe, and the Nine-Tailed White Fox Tribe. Si Yin suddenly understood and said, "That means only Zhe Yan, the Fox Emperor, and the Heavenly Monarch." At this point, Mo Yuan said to Si Yin, "And me." Mo Yuan and Si Yin walked out of the wine cellar.

The Eldest Disciple Brother handed their master an invitation from Lingbao Heavenly Venerable. After reading it, Mo Yuan simply said it was time to let Seventeen see the world. The Eldest Disciple Brother asked in surprise, "Master, are you really going?" Mo Yuan agreed. After Mo Yuan left, the Eldest Disciple Brother instructed Si Yin that in the past, their master wouldn't even look at such invitations, let alone attend the banquet himself.

Now, he must have seen that Si Yin was not in a good mood, so he wanted to take her out to relax. The Eldest Disciple Brother thought that Si Yin liked Xuan Nv in her heart, which was why she had been depressed after learning that Xuan Nv and Li Jing were together.

Si Yin didn't expect things to look this way in the Eldest Disciple Brother's eyes, but at the moment, she found it difficult to explain the whole story to her Disciple Brother, so she gave up. Xuan Nv resolutely followed Li Jing to the Wing Tribe realm. Unexpectedly, as soon as they entered the Wing Tribe realm, they ran into Li Yuan leading men to hunt down Li Jing. Everyone escorted Li Jing and Xuan Nv before Qing Cang.

Qing Cang was furious at Li Jing's actions and declared on the spot that he would kill Li Jing. Xuan Nv stepped forward and shielded Li Jing from Qing Cang's sword. She said that she was Li Jing's beloved, and that Li Jing's trip to Kunlun Void this time was merely to probe the divine Tribes for weaknesses.

Xuan Nv even offered to steal Mo Yuan's array diagrams for Qing Cang as a condition for Qing Cang to grant her and Li Jing their wish. Weighing the options, Qing Cang agreed to Xuan Nv's condition. The Great Purple Ming Palace was decorated with lanterns and banners, but there was no trace of a smile on Li Jing's face.

He saw Xuan Nv in a phoenix coronet and embroidered robes and thought of how Xuan Nv had betrayed her tribe in front of Qing Cang. Li Jing's heart was filled with disgust towards Xuan Nv. In front of Xuan Nv, Li Jing stated frankly that he indeed had someone he loved deeply in his heart, but that person had always been Si Yin. Xuan Nv never expected that after doing so much, she still couldn't compare to Si Yin.

The hatred in her heart towards Si Yin deepened further. Li Jing turned and left the bridal chamber. Unexpectedly, Li Yuan had already gathered his soldiers and was waiting outside the door. Li Yuan told Li Jing smugly that if it weren't for the woman he brought back who could contribute to their great cause of unifying the world, he would have already hacked Li Jing into a thousand pieces.

Li Jing scoffed at Li Yuan, saying that the three princes and princesses served a purpose far beyond this for their father, and their father would not kill them. Li Yuan ordered his men to seize Li Jing and lock him in the dungeon. No one was allowed to approach him before the great battle. Li Yuan also ordered his men to tie up Xuan Nv and brought her before Qing Cang.

Qing Cang ordered his men to whip Xuan Nv, torturing her until she was on the verge of death. In front of the generals and soldiers, Qing Cang declared that it was time for heaven and earth to change masters. Qing Cang was officially declaring war on the divine Tribes and ordered his men to throw Xuan Nv at the gate of Kunlun Void to properly humiliate Mo Yuan. Mo Yuan took Si Yin to Lingbao Heavenly Venerable's place.

They happened to encounter the Heavenly Monarch's second and third princes leaving. Everyone bowed to Mo Yuan. Lingbao Heavenly Venerable said in front of everyone that the Heavenly Monarch particularly favored the second prince and had sent someone a few days ago to request a marriage proposal for the second prince to Bai Qian. Si Yin was greatly shocked when she heard this. Everyone was surprised at the magnitude of Si Yin's reaction.

Just as Si Yin felt awkward, Mo Yuan timely helped her out of the situation, and the matter was finally smoothed over. Mo Yuan had suffered three bolts of divine lightning for Si Yin and had forcibly come out of seclusion early, causing significant damage to his vital energy. Coming to Lingbao Heavenly Venerable's place this time was also to borrow his spring water to heal himself.

Lingbao Heavenly Venerable and Mo Yuan talked about the golden lotus that Mo Yuan was cultivating in his lotus pond. Lingbao Heavenly Venerable said that when he visited Kunlun Void a few days ago, he noticed that the golden lotus's energy had greatly increased. It seemed Mo Yuan's wish of many years was about to be fulfilled. Mo Yuan nodded and said he had also sensed the golden lotus's energy, and it looked like things were about to succeed.

On the way back to Kunlun Void, Mo Yuan and Si Yin rested for a while on a mountaintop. Mo Yuan's old injury relapsed, but he didn't want Si Yin to know, so he made an excuse that he wanted to take a nap there. Si Yin sat far away so as not to disturb her master. At this moment, a shadow identical to Mo Yuan appeared behind Si Yin, but Si Yin couldn't see its existence.

Si Yin and Mo Yuan returned to Kunlun Void. Si Yin went to find the Eldest Disciple Brother and the others. Just as she was proudly saying that she had safely escorted her master back, someone came to report that Xuan Nv, who was on the verge of death, had been found at the mountain gate. Upon hearing the name Xuan Nv, the anger in Si Yin's heart had not completely subsided, so she decided to avoid seeing her.

The Eldest Disciple Brother and the others arrived at the mountain gate and found Xuan Nv covered in wounds and on the brink of death. The Eldest Disciple Brother quickly carried Xuan Nv into Kunlun Void. After asking for their master's instruction, they went to treat Xuan Nv. They learned from Xuan Nv that Qing Cang had already begun his rebellion. This was much faster than the Heavenly Monarch and Mo Yuan had anticipated.

Everyone knew that this great war was imminent. Xuan Nv came to find Si Yin, knelt on the ground, and pleaded bitterly for Si Yin to forgive her. The anger in Si Yin's heart was hard to dispel. She told Xuan Nv that she would not forgive her, and asked her to immediately get out of Kunlun Void once her injuries were healed.

Otherwise, if she had a few extra drinks one day and decided to settle the karma with her, no one would be able to stop her. After speaking, Si Yin turned and left, leaving Xuan Nv kneeling on the ground with a sinister expression on her face.

Episode 6 Recap

Si Yin and Ling Yu went to the military tent to pay respects to their master. They saw the Heavenly Monarch's three princes and High Goddess Yao Guang were also in the tent. Si Yin and High Goddess Yao Guang had not seen each other since the last time in the water prison. She never expected to see her again on the eve of a great war.

Mo Yuan ordered Ling Yu to lead a team, while ordering Si Yin to follow him and lead the central army. Mo Yuan knew this battle would be difficult. He called Si Yin to a secluded place and taught her the spell to seal the Donghuang Bell. Si Yin did not notice anything unusual about her master's action. Zhe Yan went to Kunlun Mountain to retrieve his Fuxi zither.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the zither was taken out, a string suddenly broke. This made Zhe Yan have a premonition that this battle might be unavoidable and disastrous. The divine Tribes and the Wing Tribe finally officially began the war. The two armies faced off, shaking heaven and earth. The horns blew, and the beasts charged out. Mo Yuan calmly responded, arranging his troops. Unexpectedly, Mo Yuan's formation was quickly broken by Qing Cang.

The divine Tribes' soldiers suffered heavy casualties, which greatly surprised Mo Yuan and the others. They did not expect that Qing Cang could break Mo Yuan's formation so quickly. The two armies directly engaged in sword fight. Ling Yu led his troops to kill their way into the enemy ranks, battling Li Yuan. Unexpectedly, Ling Yu was outnumbered and severely injured by Li Yuan. Ling Yu was attacked from front and back, and his magic power was depleted.

Si Yin was worried about Ling Yu in her heart. Seeing Ling Yu severely injured, she disregarded Mo Yuan's dissuasion and flew into the enemy lines on a cloud, wanting to rescue Ling Yu. Si Yin rushed to Ling Yu's side; Ling Yu was already on the verge of death. At this moment, Li Yuan held his sword, intending to kill Si Yin. Li Jing intervened in time. The two brothers stood sword-to-sword before Si Yin.

Li Jing told Li Yuan that the greatest merit in this battle belonged to him, and now that he wanted to protect someone, it shouldn't be up to Li Yuan to disagree. Li Yuan sneered and said that Li Jing was still alive because of the woman he brought back, Xuan Nv. If Xuan Nv hadn't stolen Mo Yuan's array diagrams, how could Qing Cang have let him live until now?

Si Yin heard what Li Yuan said and suddenly understood. It turned out that Xuan Nv being injured and thrown at Kunlun Void was a well-coordinated scheme between them, aimed at stealing Mo Yuan's array diagrams. Si Yin was furious. Li Jing had his own troubles but didn't know how to explain to Si Yin. Just as Si Yin was about to fight back, Bai Zhen appeared in time and took Si Yin and Ling Yu away.

Ling Yu's injuries were too severe, and even Mo Yuan was powerless. Si Yin was filled with guilt. Si Yin felt that if it weren't for her entanglement with Li Jing, if she hadn't taken in Xuan Nv, Ling Yu would not have died. Mo Yuan embraced the heartbroken Si Yin, offering her comfort.

Si Yin calmed down and told Mo Yuan and the others that the reason the Wing Tribe could break the formation so quickly was that Xuan Nv had stolen Mo Yuan's array diagrams and given them to Qing Cang. Everyone was greatly surprised. Just then, a report came from the front. Mo Yuan's formations were being continuously broken by the Winged Monarch. The current situation was extremely disadvantageous for Mo Yuan and his forces.

In order to turn the tide of the battle, Mo Yuan decided to take a risky move, but this plan required someone to lead ten thousand soldiers to divert the enemy's hundred thousand strong army. This meant that these ten thousand soldiers would surely go and never return. Everyone was at a loss as to how to decide. The atmosphere in the tent was extremely heavy.

At this moment, High Goddess Yao Guang stepped forward and requested permission from Mo Yuan, stating that she was willing to lead these ten thousand soldiers to create a chance for Mo Yuan. Mo Yuan and Yao Guang were now tacit partners and comrades who entrusted their lives to each other on the battlefield. Finally, after much consideration, Mo Yuan agreed to Yao Guang's request. Everyone watched High Goddess Yao Guang's back, ready to die, with solemn hearts.

Due to Ling Yu's departure, the team he led was temporarily without a commander. Bai Zhen temporarily requested permission. Ultimately, Mo Yuan agreed for Bai Zhen to lead Ling Yu's team, and Si Yin to lead a team. The next day, Mo Yuan and Qing Cang faced each other again. According to Mo Yuan's deployment, Yao Guang led ten thousand troops to divert the enemy, tearing open a path for Mo Yuan to strike directly into the enemy's heartland.

Mo Yuan led everyone to directly confront Qing Cang. Unexpectedly, the brutal Qing Cang, disregarding the countless lives in these four seas and eight wildernesses, actually brought out the Donghuang Bell, demanding that heaven and earth be buried with him. The moment the Donghuang Bell appeared, it was capable of destroying heaven and earth. The people on the ground, whether from the Wing Tribe or the divine Tribes, were like blades of grass before the Donghuang Bell.

Everyone was about to be sucked into the Donghuang Bell. Mo Yuan knew that only by sealing Qing Cang inside the Donghuang Bell could this disaster be quelled. Without thinking further, Mo Yuan fought Qing Cang with his sword, using all his magic power, and finally sealed Qing Cang into the Donghuang Bell. However, once the Donghuang Bell was used, a powerful primordial spirit was needed to sacrifice itself to seal it.

Mo Yuan decided to use his own primordial spirit to seal the Donghuang Bell. This would surely mean his soul would be scattered. Before the Donghuang Bell, Mo Yuan looked back at Si Yin, who was injured and lying on the ground, watching him, and left only two words: "Wait for me." After speaking, Mo Yuan flew into the Donghuang Bell.

Mo Yuan sacrificed his own primordial spirit to the Donghuang Bell, and the Donghuang Bell finally sealed Qing Cang in the depths of the sea. Heaven and earth stopped shaking. Mo Yuan's immortal body slowly fell. Si Yin held Mo Yuan, already sobbing uncontrollably, only letting out cries one after another. She called out "Master, Master," but Mo Yuan could no longer open his eyes and call her "Little Seventeen." The Wing Tribe was defeated, and Qing Cang was sealed.

Li Yuan and Li Jing, leading the remaining Wing Tribe members, surrendered to the divine Tribes. Si Yin was already broken by Mo Yuan's sacrifice. Hearing the Wing Tribe's voices, her anger burned even hotter. Si Yin declared that as long as she lived for a day, she would kill all the Wing Tribe members. Si Yin was emotionally agitated, so Bai Zhen had to knock her unconscious and take her back to Kunlun Void.

Divine Monarch Dong Hua was shocked to learn that Mo Yuan had sacrificed his primordial spirit to the Donghuang Bell. Knowing that Qing Cang had been sealed under the Donghuang Bell, Dong Hua sent a star lord to the Wing Tribe. Taking advantage of the Wing Tribe's defeat at this time and its state of ruin, he was to help Li Jing ascend to the position of Wing Monarch.

Only this way could peace in the four seas and eight wildernesses be ensured. Li Jing returned to the Wing Tribe. Thinking of Si Yin's final hateful look towards him, Li Jing's heart was filled with despair. Xuan Nv came forward to fawn on Li Jing. Li Jing pushed Xuan Nv away in disgust and told her that now his father had been sealed, and he and his eldest brother had long-standing grievances. His death was likely near.

Just then, the star lord arrived. Li Jing did not understand why someone from the divine Tribes would come looking for him at this time. The star lord directly stated that the divine Tribes intended to help Li Jing ascend to the position of Wing Monarch. Their conversation was clearly heard by Xuan Nv, who was hiding nearby.

Episode 7 Recap

Zhe Yan came to check on Mo Yuan's condition. Si Yin woke up and urgently asked Zhe Yan if there was a way to save Mo Yuan. Zhe Yan shook his head helplessly. Si Yin refused to give up, crying and begging Zhe Yan, "Aren't you his brother? Aren't you the divine physician of these four seas and eight wildernesses? Why won't you save him? Why won't you save him?"

Bai Zhen truly felt heartbroken seeing Si Yin torment herself like this. He wanted Si Yin to return to Green Hills with him. However, at this moment, Si Yin's heart was full of worry for her master, and she refused to leave him for even a step. Bai Zhen saw his younger sister in this state and comforted Si Yin, saying that Mo Yuan would definitely return. Zhe Yan and Bai Zhen left Si Yin alone to guard Mo Yuan.

As the two walked out, Bai Zhen sighed and said that he had only said Mo Yuan would return to comfort Si Yin in the moment of urgency. But Mo Yuan had sacrificed himself to the Donghuang Bell; this meant his soul was scattered. How could he possibly return? Zhe Yan, however, did not think so. He told Bai Zhen that having known Mo Yuan since childhood, he understood Mo Yuan's character very well.

If he could not return, he would never have left Si Yin with the words "Wait for me." Since Mo Yuan said it, perhaps he really would return. Si Yin shed tears of sadness for Mo Yuan by the lotus pond. The golden lotus behind her transformed into a phantom figure, silently embracing Si Yin. Si Yin suddenly thought of something and rushed back to Mo Yuan's side.

It turned out Si Yin remembered that as a Nine-Tailed White Fox Tribe member, her heart's blood was a spiritual medicine in this world that could preserve an immortal body from decaying. She took out a dagger, endured the piercing pain, and squeezed out her heart's blood. The phantom figure transformed from the golden lotus silently watched from the side everything Si Yin was doing for Mo Yuan. Li Yuan, clad in a blue robe, arrived at the great hall.

In front of the surviving generals, he declared that he would revive the Wing Tribe's glory and once again bathe the sky in blood. Everyone knelt before Li Yuan, except for Li Jing. Li Yuan usually hated Li Jing's appearance the most. Now, seeing Li Jing's disrespect towards him, he was even more intent on killing him. Just as Li Yuan was about to strangle Li Jing, the scene changed.

It turned out that the remaining loyal ministers no longer wished to be enemies with the divine Tribes. Moreover, upon returning from the great war, Li Yuan did not show consideration for his subordinates or mourn the previous king, but instead rushed to inherit the position of Winged Monarch. This caused great grief and indignation among the generals. They believed that only if Li Jing inherited the position of Winged Monarch could the Wing Tribe survive.

Li Jing ordered his men to imprison Li Yuan in the extremely cold region of the Wing Tribe and forbade anyone from mentioning this matter to the Little Princess.

In the great hall of the divine Tribes, while the Heavenly Monarch was dealing with Si Yin having driven away the First Prince's consort, High Goddess Le Xu, who had been sent by the heavenly court to handle Mo Yuan's funeral arrangements, High Goddess Le Xu brought a little girl to the great hall to pay respects to the Heavenly Monarch. The little girl's clan had been wiped out during this great war.

The Heavenly Monarch bestowed upon the little girl the name Su jin and also enfeoffed her as Princess Zhaoren, to be raised by the First Prince and High Goddess Le Xu. Upon hearing the Heavenly Monarch's arrangement, High Goddess Le Xu thought the Heavenly Monarch was asking them to raise Su jin because he was blaming her and the First Prince for not having descendants.

After the Heavenly Monarch left, Divine Monarch Dong Hua told High Goddess Le Xu that perhaps she would find the answer to her worries if she went to Kunlun Void. The First Prince and High Goddess Le Xu came to Kunlun Void.

The First Prince kindly informed Si Yin that since the Wing Tribe had been defeated and sought peace, for the stability of the four seas and eight wildernesses, Si Yin should also consider the bigger picture and must not seek revenge against the people of the Wing Tribe. Si Yin was unconvinced and argued with the Prince. The Prince had no way to handle Si Yin. Si Yin, feeling distressed, came before Mo Yuan.

The phantom figure transformed from the golden lotus sensed that someone had moved the golden lotus. He knew he was about to leave Kunlun Void and leave Si Yin. The phantom figure bid farewell to Si Yin. Although Si Yin could not hear the phantom figure's voice, the phantom figure still wanted to tell Si Yin that he was about to leave her, and once he transformed into a human form, he would not remember Si Yin or this place.

The phantom figure looked at Si Yin reluctantly, gradually transforming into a ray of light and disappearing. Si Yin faintly seemed to hear someone urgently calling her name. She looked around, thinking it was just a hallucination due to her longing for her master. The golden lotus suddenly withered, without any warning. A junior disciple hurriedly took it to the great hall to present to the Eldest Disciple Brother.

High Goddess Le Xu saw this golden lotus and unconsciously wanted to approach it. The moment High Goddess Le Xu's finger lightly touched it, the golden lotus transformed into a ray of golden light, encircled High Goddess Le Xu, and then completely dissipated. Everyone was puzzled. The Eldest Disciple Brother explained that Master had once said this golden lotus had been waiting for its master.

Now that High Goddess Le Xu had arrived, the golden lotus first withered and then transformed into golden light and dissipated. He guessed that the master mentioned by their Master was High Goddess Le Xu. The Eldest Disciple Brother came to see Si Yin.

Seeing that Master's immortal body had not decayed, he unintentionally mentioned to Si Yin that he had read in ancient texts that the Wing Tribe's sacred object, the Jade Purity Soul, could preserve an immortal body from decaying. For Mo Yuan, Si Yin secretly went to the Wing Tribe, knelt before Li Jing, and asked for the Jade Purity Soul.

However, Li Jing told Si Yin that due to a change that occurred in the palace, the Jade Purity Soul had long been missing. Si Yin exclaimed in surprise, asking why it was lost. Li Jing could only feel helpless. Si Yin left the Wing Tribe and by coincidence encountered Xuan Nv. Xuan Nv smugly asked if Si Yin had come here to search for the Jade Purity Soul.

Not only that, but Xuan Nv also told Si Yin that Li Jing had already bestowed this Jade Purity Soul upon her. Si Yin was greatly shocked in her heart. She was astonished that Li Jing could be so heartless. Si Yin told Li Jing, who had come forward, that the thing she regretted most in her life was knowing Li Jing. From now on, she and Li Jing would sever all ties.

On Kunlun Void, the Eldest Disciple Brother led the junior disciples in setting up a feast for their Master and Ninth Disciple Brother. Si Yin and the others recalled the happy times they had spent at Kunlun Void, filled with emotion. After a while, everyone was drunk and fell asleep at the table. Si Yin heavily knelt before her senior brothers, bidding them farewell.

Si Yin decided that in order to preserve Master's immortal body, she must take Mo Yuan back to Green Hills. When everyone woke up, they discovered that both Si Yin and Master's immortal body were gone.

Episode 8 Recap

Not long after High Goddess Le Xu returned to her palace, she became pregnant and was due to give birth within days. The High Goddess was in labor for seven days and finally gave birth to a little Prince. When the Prince was born, there were auspicious signs like colorful clouds moving across the sky and immortal birds flocking. The First Prince said happily, "These are the auspicious signs that only appear when High God Mo Yuan descends!"

The Heavenly Monarch was deeply moved and exclaimed, "We have finally welcomed the new heir apparent!" The Heavenly Monarch named the little Prince — Ye Hua. Zhe Yan and Bai Zhen were strolling in the peach blossom forest when they unexpectedly encountered a little Bashe snake who had intruded from outside. She introduced herself as Shao Xin and said she had been saved by High Immortal Si Yin a few days ago.

She took out a white porcelain bottle given to her by Si Yin, saying that High Immortal Si Yin had told her to bring this token to find High God Bai Zhen, and that he would take her in after seeing it. Upon seeing it, Bai Zhen knew this must be trouble Bai Qian had created for him. Bai Zhen had no choice but to bring Shao Xin back to the fox den.

Their mother happened to not have a maidservant, so Shao Xin could keep their mother company. A few days later, Zhe Yan and Bai Zhen were fishing in the peach blossom forest when the Eldest Disciple Brother suddenly ran over to inform the two High Gods that he could not find their Seventeenth Disciple Brother. Not only that, but even Master's immortal body was missing. The two were shocked.

Finally, everyone found Bai Qian, who was barely alive, and Mo Yuan's immortal body inside a cave. It turned out that in order to give Mo Yuan her heart's blood to preserve his immortal body from decaying, Bai Qian was on the verge of death. After examining her, Zhe Yan said that Qian Qian had fed most of her heart's blood to Mo Yuan. To save her, the only way was to transfer cultivation to her.

The Fox Emperor was the first to volunteer to transfer cultivation to Qian Qian. Their mother was worried that the Fox Emperor's presence intimidated the four seas and eight wildernesses, and if he were slightly indisposed, the world might become unstable again. For her daughter, their mother decided to transfer the cultivation herself. Zhe Yan told everyone that one more thing was needed to save Qian Qian's life, and that was the Shenzhi Grass guarded by four ancient divine beasts.

The Fox Emperor was responsible for fetching the Shenzhi Grass, while Zhe Yan was to guard Qian Qian and wait for the Fox Emperor's return. Li Jing brought the Jade Purity Soul to Kunlun Void to look for Si Yin. The disciples surrounded Li Jing, wanting to avenge their Ninth Disciple Brother and Master. The Eldest Disciple Brother stopped everyone and told Li Jing that Si Yin had gone traveling in the four directions.

Li Jing did not expect that Si Yin had already left, and perhaps he would never have a chance to make up for his mistakes again. The Eldest Disciple Brother warned everyone that Master had sacrificed his life to the Donghuang Bell for the peace of the four seas and eight wildernesses, and no one was allowed to seek revenge against the Wing Tribe.

The Eldest Disciple Brother even swore to the heavens that he would find Master and the Seventeenth Disciple Brother no matter what. Since Master was gone, the Eldest Disciple Brother told everyone there was no need to waste time at Kunlun Void. From this moment on, he dismissed everyone down the mountain to return to their respective tribes. At night, the Fox Emperor, covered in wounds, finally brought back the Shenzhi Grass.

Guarded by Zhe Yan, the Shenzhi Grass exerted its power, and their mother finally transferred her cultivation to Bai Qian. The next day, Bai Qian finally woke up. Their mother worried about her not cherishing herself, but Bai Qian playfully teased their mother, asking if she would have boundless magic now that a High Goddess had transferred half her cultivation to her.

Bai Zhen brought Bai Fengjiu to Bai Qian, and Bai Qian, being the aunt, doted on Bai Fengjiu immensely upon seeing her. Spring turned to Autumn, seventy thousand full years. Bai Qian did not leave Green Hills for even half a step again. For these seventy thousand years, Bai Qian's life was devoted to guarding Mo Yuan and waiting for Master's return to recreate the grand spectacle of gods worshipping at Kunlun Void.

Seventy thousand years later, Bai Qian told Mo Yuan by his side that in three more days, it would be the day the Qing Cang seal would be broken. She would certainly try her utmost to seal Qing Cang again and restore peace to the four seas and eight wildernesses. Bai Qian went to the market. The people of Green Hills all called Bai Qian "Aunt." Bai Qian saw Mi Gu with Shao Xin.

Mi Gu looked troubled, so Bai Qian went up to ask him. Mi Gu pulled Bai Qian to a pavilion and told Bai Qian that for the past three months, the Second Prince Sang Ji, who had an engagement with their aunt, had been at the fox den insisting on seeing her. Bai Qian did not want to deal with this matter.

She told Mi Gu to take Shao Xin to the fox den first and attend to the Second Prince well, while she would hide in the peach blossom forest for a few days and return after the Second Prince had left. Unexpectedly, during the three months the Second Prince stayed at the fox den, he developed feelings for Shao Xin.

Not only did he want to break off the engagement with Bai Qian, but he also wanted to marry Shao Xin. The Second Prince had Shao Xin transform into a little Bashe snake and hid her in his sleeve to bring her into the Heavenly Court. In the distance, Ye Hua walked over imposingly. Ye Hua and Mo Yuan looked exactly alike.

After the Second Prince walked away, Ye Hua clearly saw a little Bashe snake hidden in the Second Prince's sleeve. This Bashe snake was female. Ye Hua was reviewing official documents when the Third Prince came in to find him. Ye Hua hinted to the Third Prince that the Second Prince had brought back a little Bashe snake from Bai Qian in Green Hills, and she was female. The Third Prince exclaimed "This is bad!" and quickly left.

Episode 9 Recap

The Second Prince transformed Shao Xin into snake form and quietly brought her back to the lotus pond in the Heavenly Palace, placing her in his sleeve. The Second Prince promised Shao Xin that if she gave him a little more time, he would let her stand before the assembled deities openly and accept their worship. Shao Xin understood the Second Prince's difficulties.

The Third Prince hurriedly arrived and saw that the Second Prince had truly brought Bai Qian's maidservant back to the Heavenly Palace. The Third Prince urgently dissuaded the Second Prince, telling him to quickly send this little Bashe snake back to Bai Qian.

The Third Prince earnestly persuaded him, saying, "Since the great war, the generals of the divine Tribes have become increasingly disobedient to the Heavenly Monarch, and intermarrying with the Green Hills was also to consolidate the Heavenly Monarch's authority. But now, with Second Brother doing this, won't it make everyone in the world mock Empress Bai Qian, saying she's not even as good as a little Bashe snake?"

But the infatuated Second Prince was completely unmoved, insisting on breaking off the engagement with Bai Qian and taking Shao Xin as his consort. The Heavenly Monarch returned to his palace, and the Second Prince knelt before the Heavenly Monarch, begging for the engagement to be broken off so he could marry Shao Xin. In his fury, the Heavenly Monarch struck Sang Ji.

Sang Ji tearfully complained that Bai Qian of Green Hills did not value this union, and that he and Shao Xin were truly in love, only asking that the Heavenly Monarch would grant his request. The Heavenly Monarch ordered someone to bring Shao Xin to the main hall. Shao Xin, in order to protect Sang Ji, stated directly that she did not know Sang Ji.

In order to make the Second Prince give up on this idea, the Heavenly Monarch locked Shao Xin in the Demon Suppressing Pagoda and told Sang Ji that this union could not possibly be canceled. He disregarded Sang Ji's pleas and left indifferently. The Heavenly Monarch walked to the entrance of the main hall and just happened to run into Ye Hua, who had been there for a long time.

The Heavenly Monarch told Ye Hua that he was destined to be the Heavenly Monarch, carrying the heavy responsibility of governing the four seas and eight wildernesses. He could have many women in this Heavenly Palace, but he could not have a woman who would make him abandon his principles. Ye Hua knew that the Heavenly Monarch placed great hopes on him, never questioned the Heavenly Monarch's teachings, and this time was no different.

Si Ming came to report to the Heavenly Monarch about the Jinni beast causing trouble in the mortal realm. The Heavenly Monarch ordered Ye Hua to go to the mortal realm to eliminate the Jinni beast, so as to establish his prestige for his future rule over the four seas and eight wildernesses. After the Heavenly Monarch left, Si Ming specifically told Ye Hua that when eliminating the Jinni beast, he absolutely must not affect the fate of the mortals.

If an immortal gets involved with mortals, it will upset the order of destiny, which might be detrimental to Ye Hua. Ye Hua returned to his palace. In his dream, he recalled when he was twenty thousand years old and begged the Heavenly Monarch to see his mother. At that time, the Heavenly Monarch, in order to train Ye Hua to be the future Heavenly Monarch, did not allow Ye Hua to see his mother.

Finally, under Ye Hua's repeated pleas, the Heavenly Monarch promised that as long as he underwent trials and became a High Immortal when he was twenty thousand years old, he would be allowed to see his mother. Heavenly thunder rolled intensely, and all the deities were anxious for Ye Hua. The twenty-thousand-year-old Ye Hua showed no fear before the heavenly thunder. Three bolts of heavenly thunder struck Ye Hua, each inflicting severe injuries.

Ye Hua was covered in wounds and bloodstains and supported himself as he went before the Heavenly Monarch. The Heavenly Monarch saw how resolute Ye Hua was and agreed to Ye Hua's request to see his mother. Since Ye Hua was born, the Heavenly Monarch had raised him by his side. For twenty thousand years, High Goddess Le Xu had never seen Ye Hua.

Now meeting again, she didn't expect Ye Hua to be covered in bloodstains and wounds from head to toe. High Goddess Le Xu's heart ached for her son. She cried and said she would rather Ye Hua be an ordinary Water God than see him suffer so much.

The First Prince saw High Goddess Le Xu's sorrowful state nearby and could only comfort High Goddess Le Xu by saying that Ye Hua was destined to become the Heavenly Monarch in the future. In his daze, the scene in his dream somehow changed to the appearance of Kunlun Void. A white-robed youth was guarding High God Mo Yuan's immortal body. That back view somehow made him so sad.

Ye Hua woke up, and Su Jin was already waiting by his side, ready to help him change clothes. Su Jin recounted the matter of the Second Prince and the little Bashe snake to Ye Hua. Ye Hua said nothing. Sang Ji wanted to force his way into the Demon Suppressing Pagoda, hearing Shao Xin struggling inside. Shao Xin's immortal cultivation was not high to begin with, trapped in the Demon Suppressing Pagoda.

If she wasn't rescued soon, Shao Xin would likely lose her life in a few days. Sang Ji had no other choice and could only go before the Heavenly Monarch again to beg for Shao Xin's release. However much Sang Ji begged, even threatening death, the Heavenly Monarch showed no sign of softening.

The Heavenly Monarch, in front of Ye Hua, reprimanded Sang Ji, asking how he could be so oblivious to what was important for the sake of a woman. The Fox Emperor came to Zhe Yan's place, complaining that the divine Tribes had caused Bai Qian to completely lose face. Zhe Yan and the Fox Emperor decided to go before the Heavenly Monarch together, not only to break off the engagement but also to make the divine Tribes apologize to them.

Bai Qian slept muddle-headedly in the peach blossom forest for over five days. Bai Zhen came to wake Bai Qian. Bai Zhen thought Bai Qian might be depressed because of Sang Ji breaking off the engagement. Bai Qian said with a smile that she had only met Sang Ji once and had no feelings whatsoever, so how could she be distressed because of the broken engagement? Bai Zhen said today was Bai Qian's birthday.

Only then did Bai Qian remember that she had been so muddle-headed she forgot her own birthday. She asked Bai Zhen why he hadn't seen Bai Fengjiu. Bai Zhen said with a smile that Bai Fengjiu had followed her aunt since childhood and would definitely rush back. Bai Fengjiu wanted to take a shortcut back to Green Hills but unexpectedly stumbled into the Wing Tribe's bamboo forest and encountered a ferocious Jinni beast.

Bai Fengjiu's magic was no match, and she fled in panic. At the critical moment, fortunately, Dong Hua Divine Monarch stepped in to help, repelling the Jinni beast. Bai Fengjiu had seen Dong Hua Divine Monarch in Zhe Yan's ancient texts before, but seeing him in person now, she was very shocked in her heart. Bai Fengjiu had been taught by Bai Qian since childhood that one must repay kindness. Bai Fengjiu followed Dong Hua to repay his kindness.

Dong Hua ignored Bai Fengjiu and came all the way to the place where Qing Cang was sealed. It turned out Dong Hua had recently detected unusual activity from the Donghuang Bell, fearing Qing Cang might awaken.

He found a minor land deity nearby, gave him a magical bell, ordering him to pay close attention to the Donghuang Bell's movements in the coming days, and to be sure to use the bell to notify him if there was any unusual activity. Just as Bai Fengjiu was about to speak to Dong Hua, Dong Hua coldly refused and returned to the Heavenly Palace.

Bai Fengjiu looked at Dong Hua's such cold back view but did not feel disappointed in her heart. Yan Zhi came to the riverside to visit her father. Since Qing Cang was sealed, she hadn't been able to find her eldest brother Liyuan. Her second brother Li Jing had taken over the position of Winged Monarch but had always resented Qing Cang for killing his birth mother and had never come to visit Qing Cang. Yan Zhi felt deeply lonely.

At this moment, Qing Cang, who was sealed inside the Donghuang Bell, slowly opened his eyes. In the Heavenly Palace, the Third Prince told Ye Hua that regarding this matter with Green Hills, only Ye Hua could appease Green Hills. Ye Hua understood Third Uncle's meaning; this was asking him to marry Bai Qian of Green Hills on behalf of his second uncle.

Third Uncle told Ye Hua that since he started handling governmental affairs, the four seas and eight wildernesses had all submitted to him. But even so, he still lacked a trial of love. Ye Hua didn't understand but didn't ask for details. Although Ye Hua seemed cold on the outside, he was not heartless. Since he could save his second uncle from trouble, what did it matter if there was one more person sleeping beside his bed?

Ye Hua agreed to Third Uncle's request. In the Heavenly Palace, the Fox Emperor and Zhe Yan hoped the Heavenly Monarch could cancel the marriage alliance between the divine Tribes and the Nine-Tailed White Fox Tribe. Unexpectedly, the Heavenly Monarch strongly opposed and promised that the divine Tribes would certainly give the Nine-Tailed White Fox Tribe an explanation.

Episode 10 Recap

When the Fox Emperor, Zhe Yan, and the Heavenly Monarch were discussing Bai Qian's marriage, Ye Hua came to pay his respects to the High God. Zhe Yan saw that Ye Hua looked exactly like Mo Yuan and was astonished. The Heavenly Monarch said that he had also suspected that when High God Mo Yuan vanished, he might have preserved a trace of his soul, which descended with Ye Hua.

Zhe Yan felt this was impossible; if Mo Yuan still had a trace of his soul, he would definitely not descend elsewhere, but would surely return to Kunlun Void. Zhe Yan's mind turned, and he asked Ye Hua if he had a principal consort. Ye Hua replied that the Heavenly Monarch had not yet bestowed a soul (consort). Hearing this, Zhe Yan's face held a smile. In the Heavenly Palace, the Heavenly Monarch and the deities were all present.

Sang Ji rescued Shao Xin from the Demon Suppressing Pagoda and, hoping to use the presence of the deities, again begged the Heavenly Monarch to fulfill his and Shao Xin's wish. The Heavenly Monarch was enraged by Sang Ji's disregard for the dignity of the divine Tribes, and even ordered Sang Ji and Shao Xin to apologize with death in front of Zhe Yan and the Fox Emperor. Both Shao Xin and Sang Ji were prepared to die together.

Just then, Zhe Yan intervened in time to save their lives. Zhe Yan said neutrally, since these two were devoted to each other, why force them so hard? Let this matter be settled. However, the Heavenly Monarch refused to let it go.

At this point, the Third Prince stepped forward and proposed that since the Second Brother could not marry High Goddess Bai Qian, it would be better for someone of even nobler status among the divine Tribes to marry Bai Qian. This person was the Crown Prince Ye Hua, who was also the next Heavenly Monarch. This way, it would not only save face for the divine Tribes and the Fox Tribe, but also make everyone happy.

Zhe Yan and the Third Prince echoed each other. The Heavenly Monarch decreed that Ye Hua would marry Bai Qian, and when Ye Hua succeeded to the position of Heavenly Monarch, Bai Qian would be Empress. To punish Sang Ji, the Heavenly Monarch ordered him to move to Beihai and become the Water God. This matter was also resolved satisfactorily. Su Jin had liked Ye Hua since childhood.

Hearing the decree that Ye Hua was accepting the bestowed marriage, she felt greatly wronged and resentful. She cried and asked Ye Hua if he didn't understand her feelings. Ye Hua was expressionless and told Su Jin that he had always respected her like an aunt and had no other intentions. As for a principal consort, he had to marry one sooner or later, and it was the same no matter who he married.

Not receiving comfort from Ye Hua, Su Jin had no choice but to turn to beg High Goddess Le Xu. Le Xu, helpless, subtly told Su Jin that in this Heavenly Palace, only the Heavenly Monarch could bestow marriage upon Ye Hua, and Su Jin had no clan or parents behind her. Even though she had once come from a prominent clan of the divine Tribes, her entire clan was wiped out in the great war.

Now, if Ye Hua had feelings for her, it would be fine, but Ye Hua had no such intention. Le Xu comforted Su Jin, asking why she insisted on this matter. Bai Fengjiu came to the riverside and summoned a minor land deity. Using a bamboo flute cleverly, she exchanged it for the bell Dong Hua had given to the minor land deity. Bai Fengjiu held the bell, feeling very happy, and hurried back to celebrate her aunt's birthday.

Bai Fengjiu returned to the peach blossom forest and happened to find Bai Qian and Bai Zhen drinking together. Bai Fengjiu offered sweet words to congratulate Bai Qian on her happy birthday and laughed with Bai Qian, saying that her aunt was not showing her age gracefully. Bai Qian also felt playful and turned Bai Fengjiu into her true fox form, saying mischievously, "You dare to say your aunt is old, then be a little fox for a few days."

Bai Qian saw the bell Bai Fengjiu had dropped and tied the little bell onto Bai Fengjiu's leg. After drinking, Bai Qian's expression was melancholic, and she quietly walked away alone. Bai Fengjiu was worried about her aunt and followed behind Bai Qian. Bai Qian came to Kunlun Void. The current Kunlun Void was desolate and bleak, no longer showing the prosperous scene of the past. Bai Qian couldn't help but feel sorrowful in her heart.

Bai Qian drank alone in the wine cellar, thinking about the time she spent with her master and senior disciples in Kunlun Void, feeling even more distressed. Now that Qing Cang was about to break the seal, to protect the peace of the four seas and eight wildernesses, Bai Qian was prepared to go alone to seal the Donghuang Bell again. Bai Qian protected Bai Fengjiu in this wine cellar, making her sleep for three days.

After three days, the protective barrier she set for her would break, and by then, ringing the bell would summon Dong Hua Divine Monarch for her. Bai Qian didn't know if she would survive to return. She wrote down the sealing technique for the Donghuang Bell and left it beside Bai Fengjiu. Bai Qian came to the riverside. As the minor land deity was about to step forward to greet her, Bai Qian fanned him away.

She just didn't want to implicate the innocent and told the minor deity to quickly save his life. Bai Qian came before the Donghuang Bell. As expected, Qing Cang had awakened. Bai Qian told Qing Cang that even if it cost her life, she would not let him break the seal. Bai Qian used the sealing technique to re-seal the Donghuang Bell.

To retaliate, Qing Cang attacked with all his might, stripping Bai Qian of her appearance, magic, and memory, and casting Bai Qian into the mortal realm. He wanted Bai Qian to taste the sufferings of life, old age, sickness, and death in the mortal realm and never know who she truly was. Purple clouds churned, and heavenly thunder rolled. Everyone in the Heavenly Palace had an ominous premonition.

Dong Hua rushed to the location of the Donghuang Bell and found that the Donghuang Bell had returned to peace, feeling very puzzled. He called the minor land deity. The minor land deity only knew that a beautiful High Goddess had come at that time and then driven him away. Dong Hua was truly puzzled as to who had such great ability to seal the Donghuang Bell again. The immortal spell protecting Bai Fengjiu broke.

Ringing the bell attracted Dong Hua. Dong Hua saw the sealing technique Bai Qian had left on the table and learned from Bai Fengjiu that it was written by Bai Qian of Green Hills. He asked Bai Fengjiu if Bai Qian had any connection with Kunlun Void. Bai Fengjiu told him that her aunt had never left Green Hills since she was born, so how could she be involved with Kunlun Void? Dong Hua didn't believe it.

Although he didn't know the whole story, it now seemed clear that the person who re-sealed the Donghuang Bell must be Bai Qian. Bai Qian fell into the mortal realm and woke up in a bamboo forest. Her memory and magic sealed by Qing Cang, Bai Qian didn't know who she was, where she came from, or where she was going.

Episode 11 Recap

Bai Zhen couldn't find Bai Qian in the peach forest, so he came to the fox den. But Mi Gu said Bai Qian hadn't returned to the fox den. Just then, Zhe Yan returned from the Heavenly Palace. Bai Zhen also wanted to ask Zhe Yan about Bai Qian's marriage. Zhe Yan told Bai Zhen that although the marriage to the Second Prince was called off, the engagement with the divine Tribes was still on.

Bai Zhen was surprised and asked what was happening. Zhe Yan explained the whole story to Bai Zhen. Fengjiu woke up in the cave and rang the bell. The bell attracted Dong Hua Divine Monarch. Dong Hua Divine Monarch questioned Fengjiu why the bell was on her. Fengjiu didn't know how to answer. Dong Hua saw the sealing technique Bai Qian had left beside Fengjiu and questioned Fengjiu, what connection did Bai Qian and Kunlun Void have?

Fengjiu quickly made excuses for Bai Qian, saying her aunt had never left Green Hills since she was born, so how could she have any relationship with Kunlun Void? Although Dong Hua didn't get an answer from Fengjiu, he still felt that there must be a connection between Bai Qian and Mo Yuan. As for what the relationship was, he feared it could only be known when Mo Yuan woke up.

Li Jing had never forgotten Si Yin for seventy thousand years. Time only made him understand more clearly that the one he had always loved was Si Yin. Even if Xuan Nv's appearance was as close to Si Yin's as possible, she was not Si Yin. Li Jing came to Kunlun Void, thinking of his acquaintance and relationship with Si Yin, and their past together, feeling desolate in his heart.

Just as he was leaving, he happened to meet Dong Hua Divine Monarch and others coming out. Everyone regretted the desolate scene of Kunlun Void now. Dong Hua Divine Monarch told Si Ming that Qing Cang was about to break the seal in the next few days. But a woman, who somehow calculated the day the seal would break and knew the sealing technique, had already resealed the Donghuang Bell one step ahead.

Si Ming wondered, even the Divine Monarch couldn't calculate it, who else had such great ability? Dong Hua thought for a moment, then pointed to Fengjiu and said, it should be this little highness's aunt, Bai Qian of Green Hills. From Si Ming, Fengjiu learned that her aunt had become the subject of ridicule throughout the Four Seas and Eight Wildernesses because of Shao Xin. Feeling indignant for her aunt, she rushed to the Heavenly Palace.

There, she happened to encounter Sang Ji taking Shao Xin to bid farewell to the Heavenly Monarch before heading to the East Sea. Fengjiu pointed her sword at Shao Xin, questioning her how she could repay her aunt's kindness with such ingratitude when her aunt had always treated her well. Shao Xin humbly begged Princess Fengjiu for forgiveness. Fengjiu was unforgiving.

The Water God of the North Sea was about to get into a conflict with Fengjiu when the Divine Monarch appeared and stabilized the situation. The Divine Monarch suspected that Bai Qian was the Si Yin from back then. He pressed Shao Xin, asking if she knew Si Yin. Fengjiu's heart tightened. She feared that if Shao Xin couldn't withstand the interrogation and revealed the matter, things would be terrible for her aunt and High God Mo Yuan.

Unexpectedly, although Shao Xin had a humble personality, she understood Bai Qian's kindness to her in her heart. Shao Xin reported to the Divine Monarch without fear, saying she did not know Si Yin. No matter how the Divine Monarch interrogated her, Shao Xin did not change her statement. Seeing Shao Xin like this, the anger in Fengjiu's heart dissipated. Bai Qian, now a mortal, settled down in a thatched hut on Junji Mountain in the Eastern Wilderness.

That evening, she was building a fire to cook. Unexpectedly, a Golden Lion Beast was also in the mountain. The Golden Lion Beast quietly sneaked into the hut and saw Bai Qian holding the Yuqing Kunlun Fan, which scared it away immediately. The Yuqing Kunlun Fan had fallen into the mortal realm with Bai Qian. When she woke up, Bai Qian no longer recognized the fan and just thought of it as an object she had picked up.

The Golden Lion Beast couldn't figure it out. During the great war back then, the one using the Yuqing Kunlun Fan was clearly a man, but the person in the hut was a woman, and a mortal at that. How could she be holding this fan? Ye Hua discovered the Golden Lion Beast's tracks and followed it there. The two fought a great battle, and terrifying crimson thunder appeared in the sky.

The Golden Lion Beast was no match for Ye Hua and fled in panic. The two chased it into the city. The Golden Lion Beast angrily asked why, after hiding from the divine Tribes for seventy thousand years, he wanted to exterminate it completely. Ye Hua only said that cause and effect have their own retribution. To escape, the Golden Lion Beast spat out the fire of red lotus karma, burning the city.

To save the common people, Ye Hua had to reveal his true form. It turned out Ye Hua's true form was a black dragon. During the fight, Ye Hua was injured by the fire of red lotus karma and couldn't recover his human form for three days, so he had to go to a cave on Junji Mountain in the Eastern Wilderness to recuperate.

One day, Bai Qian came to the cave and accidentally discovered Ye Hua's small black dragon form. Bai Qian mistook it for a black snake and took it back to her thatched hut to care for it meticulously. It was quite lively with one person and one snake. However, it was a pity for Ye Hua; he was a true dragon, yet he was teased by Bai Qian as a little snake, feeling very humiliated.

Ye Hua felt that Bai Qian seemed like the figure he often saw in his dreams in Kunlun Void. He also discovered that Bai Qian was holding the Yuqing Kunlun Fan in her hand, and his heart grew suspicious about Bai Qian's identity. Bai Qian took the small black snake, which was Ye Hua's transformed state, to the market. She sold some fruits for money. Bai Qian went to listen to plays and drink tea.

As a result, the fan in her hand was recognized as a treasure by a fortune teller in the market. This person wanted to take possession of the precious fan. He snatched it directly from Bai Qian's hand and even used sophistry, saying it was his ancestral heirloom. The amnesiac Bai Qian was unable to argue.

Episode 12 Recap

Fortune teller Taoist priest insisted the fan was his ancestral magic artifact. He told Bai Qian to say what was drawn on the fan. Bai Qian couldn't say. Just then, Yan Zhi passed by and offered help. She told everyone it was a magic artifact belonging to one of her old friends, exposing the Taoist priest's hypocrisy and helping Bai Qian snatch the fan back.

Yan Zhi saw Bai Qian's movement of holding the fan to her nose, which was very similar to Si Yin. If Bai Qian weren't a woman, she would have almost thought the person in front of her was Si Yin. Yan Zhi told Bai Qian that this was a precious fan and told her to keep it carefully, not to show it off, in case it attracted trouble again.

Bai Qian stopped Yan Zhi, who was about to leave, and told her that since this fan belonged to her old friend, giving it to her now could be considered returning the object to its rightful owner. Yan Zhi was very grateful to Bai Qian. The two of them felt like they had known each other for ages at their first meeting. Ye Hua returned to the Heavenly Palace to handle affairs.

His third uncle told Ye Hua about Su jin marrying the Heavenly Monarch. Ye Hua didn't care. His third uncle also told Ye Hua that the Heavenly Monarch had already discussed the matter of marrying Bai Qian of Green Hills with Ye Hua's father and the officials in the great hall. For some reason, Ye Hua currently did not want to hold this wedding so quickly.

After Ye Hua went to the Heavenly Palace, the small black snake he had transformed into remained in a deep sleep. Bai Qian thought this little snake was going to hibernate. She thought, it's only September, winter hasn't arrived yet, how could it hibernate? Ye Hua found Si Ming Xingjun in the Heavenly Palace. He was very confused how Bai Qian, a mortal, could have the Yuqing Kunlun Fan.

Si Ming Xingjun told Ye Hua that ever since the great war, Si Yin and High God Mo Yuan's immortal bodies had disappeared together. So, Dong Hua Emperor, in order to silence the gossiping masses, had people write the four words 'retreated together' in the texts. Ye Hua did not get an answer from Si Ming Xingjun and his heart was still filled with questions. Ye Hua returned from the Heavenly Palace. Finally, the small black snake woke up.

Bai Qian was very happy to see the small black snake awake. She couldn't wait to show the small black snake the large red quilt Yan Zhi had given her, and she even shared a quilt and slept in the same bed with the small black snake. Although Ye Hua knew the difference between male and female, he was helpless at the moment and couldn't reveal his true form, so he had to comply with Bai Qian.

At night, when Bai Qian was fast asleep, Ye Hua revealed his immortal body. Seeing Bai Qian sleeping beside him, he couldn't help but be lost in thought. Fengjiu was determined to repay Dong Hua Emperor. So she came up with the idea of going to the Heavenly Palace to be a maid for the Emperor. But she couldn't tell her father and the Fox Emperor, or they definitely wouldn't agree.

Fengjiu handed over the sealing technique her aunt had given her to Mi Gu. She told him to give it to the Fox Emperor and Zhe Yan, and also tell them that she had gone out for training and they didn't need to worry. After giving these instructions, Fengjiu went to the Heavenly Palace alone. Zhe Yan received the sealing technique from Mi Gu and said, "This is bad."

Zhe Yan explained to the Fox Emperor, the Fox Queen, and Bai Zhen that this technique was used to seal the Donghuang Bell. Not only that, it also recorded that the Donghuang Bell needed to be sealed every seventy thousand years. Calculating the days, it was exactly the day after Bai Qian left the peach forest. The Fox Queen heard them say this and felt heartbroken. She thought Bai Qian had been completely annihilated because she sealed the Donghuang Bell.

The Fox Emperor and Zhe Yan quickly comforted the Fox Queen, saying that if someone from the divine Tribes were to pass away, there would definitely be abnormal phenomena in the Heavenly Palace. But looking at the present, the Four Seas were peaceful, and there were no unusual occurrences. Therefore, Bai Qian was just missing for now and should not be in danger of losing her life. The Fox Queen slightly calmed down her emotions after hearing them say this.

Fengjiu came to the Emperor's Tai Chen Palace. But the guards didn't recognize Fengjiu and wouldn't let her in at all. Fengjiu didn't know what to do, so she just waited eagerly at the gate of Tai Chen Palace. Coincidentally, Chengyu Yuanjun of the Heavenly Palace, disguised as a man, passed by here. Seeing Fengjiu waiting pitifully at the entrance, she went up to strike up a conversation.

Fengjiu did not hide her identity and told Chengyu Yuanjun the whole story between herself and the Emperor. She stated her purpose for this trip was to stay by the Emperor's side day and night, thinking that if the Emperor ever needed anything, she could repay his kindness. Chengyu Yuanjun was moved by Fengjiu and decided to help Fengjiu become a little fairy maid in Tai Chen Palace.

With Chengyu Yuanjun's help, Fengjiu finally became one of the new batch of little fairy maids entering Tai Chen Palace. Si Ming Xingjun happened to come over that day and encountered Fengjiu. Although he thought Fengjiu's method of repaying kindness was not entirely appropriate, seeing how persistent she was, he had nothing more to say. Si Ming Xingjun told Fengjiu that Chengyu Yuanjun was actually the beloved of the Third Prince, Lian Song. Fengjiu suddenly understood.

No wonder she was able to help her become a little fairy maid in Tai Chen Palace. Fengjiu wanted to see the Emperor. Holding the tea offering, she prepared to go to the Emperor's study. Unexpectedly, outside the study, she met Ye Hua's cousin. This cousin had liked the Emperor since childhood and was inherently arrogant. Seeing the exceptionally beautiful Fengjiu working as a fairy maid in Tai Chen Palace, she felt displeased.

She even deliberately picked a fight and made things difficult for Fengjiu. In order to repay the kindness by staying by the Emperor's side for a long time, Fengjiu endured everything one by one. Fengjiu was punished to do laundry. Taking advantage of no one noticing her, she secretly slipped back to her room. Chengyu Yuanjun secretly came to visit Fengjiu and asked Fengjiu how the matter of repaying kindness was progressing.

Unexpectedly, Fengjiu said with a dejected look that not only had she not seen the Emperor, but she had also been made things difficult by the princess and punished to do rough chores, so tired she felt like she was about to die.

Episode 13 Recap

Bai Qian took the little black snake to the place where she first picked him up. She told the little black snake that she had found him here and it had been so many days. Now if he wants to leave, he can leave. Bai Qian was just very sad. If even he left, she might not even have anyone to talk to anymore. Bai Qian put down the little black snake and went back to her thatched cottage alone.

At night, Bai Qian was no longer accompanied by the little black snake. Ye Hua came to the thatched cottage and looked at Bai Qian in her sleep. Ye Hua felt reluctant to leave her. Ye Hua slept beside Bai Qian, thinking to himself, "You are an unmarried young woman, yet you have shared a bed with the Crown Prince of the Heavenly Tribe for three months.

Thinking about it, if I don't marry her, I'm afraid no one else will." Thinking about it, Ye Hua actually fell asleep beside Bai Qian with a smile. Yan Zhi was staring blankly at the Yuqing Kunlun fan. The Jin Ni beast came to see Yan Zhi. Yan Zhi eagerly asked the Jin Ni beast that she hadn't seen her older brother Li Yuan since the great war. Did he know where her older brother was now?

The Jin Ni beast told Yan Zhi that Li Yuan was locked up by Li Jing in the coldest place in the Wing Tribe territory. Yan Zhi never expected the truth of the matter to be like this. Bai Qian took the little black snake to the street. Unexpectedly, black snakes were a taboo in the mortal realm. The fake Taoist priest had always harbored resentment towards Bai Qian for not snatching the precious fan.

Using the black snake, the fake Taoist priest incited public anger. Not only did he push Bai Qian to the ground, but he also wanted to set the black snake on fire. Bai Qian used her body to shield the basket and protect the black snake. When Yan Zhi saw this, she was about to step in to help. The Jin Ni beast stopped her and told her to take a good look at what was inside the basket.

Yan Zhi looked closely and it turned out to be a dragon. Ye Hua, in his black dragon form, flew into the sky. Seeing the true dragon, everyone was frightened and knelt down one after another. Ye Hua sprayed water to punish the fake Taoist priest. When Bai Qian saw Ye Hua's true form, she was not frightened.

She just said to the black dragon, "So you are actually a dragon, but you are so big, how am I supposed to raise you from now on?" Although Ye Hua did not speak directly to Bai Qian, he affirmed her in his heart, asking Bai Qian to wait for him, as he would return soon. Ye Hua ascended to the Heavenly Palace. For the first time in ten thousand years, Ye Hua felt stirred by emotion.

He found his third uncle and asked what he should do. His third uncle offered Ye Hua advice and strategies. Ye Hua felt that both the beauty trap and hero trap strategies were inappropriate. However, his third uncle mentioned the stratagem of feigning injury, which made Ye Hua's heart stir. Ye Hua transformed into a seriously injured mortal and fell down in front of Bai Qian's thatched cottage.

Bai Qian saw Ye Hua and quickly helped him into the thatched cottage. Bai Qian took meticulous care of him. Seeing the wounds on Ye Hua's body, Bai Qian surprisingly cried sadly. Ye Hua thought he had gone too far. Ye Hua asked Bai Qian for her name, but Bai Qian had lost her memory and had always thought she didn't have a name. Ye Hua gave Su Su as a name to Bai Qian.

Bai Qian liked this name very much. At night, in order for Ye Hua to recover better from his injuries, Su Su slept face down at the table, giving the bed to Ye Hua. After Su Su fell asleep, Ye Hua carried Su Su to the bed and tucked her in. The next day, Su Su entered the woods, wanting to pick some herbs for Ye Hua, but unexpectedly got lost.

When Ye Hua found Su Su, it was already late. The two of them had to stay in the woods for the night. Su Su said dejectedly if she was very bad, which is why the little black snake she had raised before hadn't come to see her since he left. Ye Hua felt heartache for Su Su. He comforted Su Su saying that dragons are ancient divine Tribes.

Their appearance in the mortal realm is mostly to slay demons and evil. Furthermore, dragons cannot stay in the mortal realm for too long, as this would affect the fate of mortals. When Su Su heard this reason, she felt less sad in her heart.

Episode 14 Recap

Li Jing was drinking and reveling in his palace with women by his side. For seventy thousand years, Li Jing had countless beauties around him, but none of the thousands of beauties could compare to the Si Yin in his heart. Looking at the women around him, Li Jing always wanted to find a trace of Si Yin's shadow in them. Yan Zhi came to find Li Jing.

Li Jing asked her if she had found his older brother Li Yuan. Yan Zhi pretended to be dejected about not finding her older brother and gave the Yuqing Kunlun fan to Li Jing. Li Jing was very excited when he saw the fan, and grabbed Yan Zhi, asking eagerly if she had seen Si Yin. Yan Zhi told him that the fan was found by a woman in Donghuang Junji Mountain.

Li Jing suddenly remembered that Si Yin had once mentioned that she and her senior brothers would go to Junji Mountain to play whenever they went down the mountain. Li Jing suddenly realized, perhaps Si Yin was in Junji Mountain. As Li Jing went out, he saw Xuan Nv throwing a tantrum at a maid. Li Jing didn't pay any attention to Xuan Nv.

Xuan Nv saw Li Jing, who had been cold as ice towards her for seventy thousand years. She realized that no matter what she did, she would never be able to win back Li Jing's heart. Li Jing went to Junji Mountain and searched everywhere like crazy for traces of Si Yin, but he couldn't find her. Li Jing took the Yuqing Kunlun fan to the bamboo forest.

Ye Hua's immortal barrier prevented Li Jing from seeing where the thatched cottage was. Ye Hua sensed Li Jing's arrival and appeared before him. When Li Jing saw Ye Hua, he thought it was High God Mo Yuan resurrected. Ye Hua said that he was the Crown Prince of the Heavenly Tribe. Seeing Li Jing holding the Yuqing Kunlun fan, Ye Hua knew he had come to look for Si Yin.

Ye Hua told Li Jing that after the great war, Si Yin and High God Mo Yuan had both gone into seclusion. Li Jing still didn't believe this explanation. Ye Hua asked Li Jing to return the fan. Li Jing, having failed to find Si Yin, left dejectedly. Ye Hua returned to the thatched cottage. Su Su accidentally burned the rice. Su Su said dejectedly that there wasn't much rice to begin with.

Ye Hua comforted her, saying that once his injuries were healed, he would go find food for her. At night, Ye Hua carried the sleeping Su Su onto the bed. Su Su accidentally woke up and was startled to see herself sleeping on the bed. Ye Hua explained that Su Su always climbed onto the bed by herself in the middle of the night. Su Su actually believed Ye Hua's words.

Ye Hua did not let Su Su get out of bed. Su Su lay beside Ye Hua, feeling a bit embarrassed, but her heart felt very peaceful. Bai Fengjiu was fiddling with peach blossoms in Tai Chen Palace. Si Ming came to visit Bai Fengjiu and told her that Dong Hua is an immortal who doesn't care about worldly affairs, and he wouldn't give face to anyone in the Four Seas and Eight Deserts.

The divine Tribes privately said that Dong Hua was an immortal suitable for hanging on a wall. Bai Fengjiu had been there for many days but still hadn't seen Dong Hua. Si Ming offered Bai Fengjiu an idea, suggesting she pick a few beautiful peach blossoms and take them to Dong Hua, praising the blossoms to bring her before Dong Hua, so she could have a chance to thank Dong Hua.

Coincidentally, Third Prince Lian Song was also with Dong Hua. Lian Song and Si Ming worked together to bring Bai Fengjiu before Dong Hua. Unexpectedly, Cheng Yu also came to pay respects to Dong Hua. The four of them spoke one after another before Dong Hua, but Dong Hua didn't seem to take notice and calmly walked away, leaving the four people looking at each other in dismay. Only a little rice was left in Su Su's thatched cottage.

She used the rice to cook a bowl of porridge for Ye Hua. Out of helplessness, Su Su had no choice but to tell Ye Hua the reality that there was no more rice at home. Ye Hua thought Su Su was worried about the winter. Su Su, however, was worried that although she had saved Ye Hua, she was now unable to support him. She timidly asked Ye Hua if he could leave.

Ye Hua told Su Su that since she had saved him, he definitely had to repay her kindness. He asked Su Su if there was anything she wanted. Su Su looked at Ye Hua and spoke what was in her heart. If he really wanted to repay her kindness, he should offer himself in marriage. Ye Hua was stunned.

Su Su told Ye Hua that she lived alone on this Junji Mountain, without parents, not knowing where she came from or where she was going. She just hoped someone could accompany her. If Ye Hua insisted on repaying her kindness, he should offer himself in marriage. Listening to Su Su's request, Ye Hua was very happy in his heart.

He had originally thought he would need to continue the feigned injury ruse for a few more days to slowly build affection with Su Su. But now, Su Su actually wanted to marry him, so he was naturally ecstatic. Su Su told Ye Hua that although she didn't have parents, a marriage was still a big event and should have a ceremony. Ye Hua decided to take Su Su to the market to buy some things.

He wanted to give Su Su a warm and unforgettable ceremony. Su Su nervously asked Ye Hua, she only had a thatched cottage, and Ye Hua just agreed to marry her like that. She questioned if Ye Hua was really not tricking her into marriage.

Ye Hua was amused by Su Su's appearance and asked Su Su that it was she who asked him to offer himself in marriage, and now it was also she who was worried that he might trick her into marriage. Su Su also felt that she was worrying a bit too much. Su Su told Ye Hua that no matter what, she would not dislike him. Ye Hua looked at Su Su's serious face and was deeply moved.

Inside the thatched cottage, Su Su was draped in red veil, with a young woman's shyness on her face, looking softly at Ye Hua. Although Ye Hua was about to marry her, Su Su still had some worries. She asked Ye Hua what if later he found their personalities were incompatible, what if his family disagreed with this marriage, or if Ye Hua had an engagement.

Ye Hua did not intend to deceive Su Su, but it was not yet time to tell Su Su everything. Ye Hua only told Su Su that his family situation was very complicated. Ye Hua seriously promised Su Su that since he married her, Su Su would be his wife for all eternity. Su Su only said one sentence, "As long as you say it, I will believe you."

The two of them bowed to the heavens and the Great Earth of Donghuang, exchanging vows. Su Su said to Ye Hua, she was clear about love and hate. If one day, Ye Hua betrayed her, she would definitely leave him and never see him again. Ye Hua teased Su Su, saying wouldn't that fulfill his wish? Su Su playfully blamed Ye Hua. The two finally became a formal mortal couple.

Episode 15 Recap

The day Ye Hua and Su Su had their grand wedding in the mortal realm was also the day Su Jin married into the Heavenly Palace as a Heavenly Consort. Su Jin told her closest maidservant that everything she was doing now was for the sake of marrying Ye Hua one day. Xuan Nv secretly handed the army tally to Yan Zhi.

Xuan Nv knew in her heart that now even Li Jing's most beloved younger sister had betrayed him, she could become the closest person to Li Jing in Da Zi Ming Palace. Xuan Nv came before Li Jing wearing Si Yin's clothes from back then. Li Jing was in a drunken haze. Looking at Xuan Nv in front of him, dressed in Si Yin's clothes, his longing for Si Yin grew stronger.

He couldn't tell who was in front of him, only seeing her as Si Yin, and held Xuan Nv tightly in his embrace. In the morning, Su Su wanted to make Ye Hua a roasted chicken, but Su Su, not skilled in cooking, actually set the thatched cottage on fire. Su Su quickly ran into the house and pulled Ye Hua out. Seeing the burning thatched cottage, Su Su was extremely sad.

To comfort Su Su, Ye Hua covered her eyes, used his magic to extinguish the fire, and restored the thatched cottage to its original state. After seeing this, Su Su thought Ye Hua was a demon. Ye Hua also wanted to use this to test Su Su, to see how she would react if he really was a demon. However, Su Su showed no fear of Ye Hua at all.

With a calm expression, she told Ye Hua that whether he was a demon or a human, since she had already married him, they would be husband and wife for all eternity. No matter what hardships lay ahead, she would never leave him. Ye Hua had not expected that the seemingly frail Su Su would have such a resolute nature, and his affection for Su Su increased by another measure.

Su Su mistakenly thought Ye Hua was a Golden Kirin Beast. She worried that the little black dragon she had raised would come back and cause trouble for Ye Hua. She anxiously wanted to take Ye Hua and flee. Ye Hua was amused by Su Su's anxious appearance. Ye Hua knew that if he told Su Su he was the Crown Prince of the Heavenly Tribe, it would definitely scare her.

He could only explain that he was just a mortal cultivating immortal practices. On this day, Su Su and Ye Hua went hunting in the forest. Unexpectedly, the Heavenly Monarch and Dong Hua arrived at Ye Hua's sleeping palace. By the time Ye Hua learned of it, it was too late to explain to Su Su. He could only return to the Heavenly Palace first, lest the Heavenly Monarch discover he was in the mortal realm.

The Heavenly Monarch had come to order Ye Hua to go with Su Jin to pay respects to the leaders of various tribes, in order to win over the heads of the various branches, so that they could unite in the future to suppress the rebellious Merfolk Tribe.

In front of the Heavenly Monarch, Dong Hua, and Lian Song, Ye Hua declared that his ambition was to become a wise monarch, and therefore he did not wish to be entangled by romantic affairs for the time being. He implored the Heavenly Monarch if he could be given another twenty thousand years for cultivation. The Heavenly Monarch worried if Ye Hua did not want to marry Bai Qian of Green Hills.

Ye Hua skillfully covered it up and used the Yuqing Kunlun fan he had retrieved from Li Jing to save himself this time. The Heavenly Monarch ordered Ye Hua to immediately accompany Su Jin to pay respects to the various leaders. Ye Hua worried that his unannounced departure would make Su Su anxious.

One day in heaven is one year on earth; the longer he stayed in the Heavenly Palace, the more agonizing Su Su's wait would be in the mortal realm. Lian Song saw through Ye Hua's thoughts. After the Heavenly Monarch and Dong Hua had left, Lian Song asked Ye Hua if the twenty thousand years of cultivation time he had asked the Heavenly Monarch for was because he wanted to spend this lifetime with that mortal.

But Lian Song underestimated Ye Hua's feelings for the mortal Su Su. Ye Hua told Lian Song with extreme seriousness that he not only wanted to accompany Su Su for this lifetime but also to be with her for all eternity. Lian Song had never seen Ye Hua look so serious about a woman.

With the previous example of Sang Ji and Shao Xin as a warning, Lian Song had to caution Ye Hua that if he brought that mortal up to heaven, the Heavenly Monarch would surely make her wish for death but be unable to die. Ye Hua knew in his heart that from the day he was born, the Heavenly Monarch had placed high hopes on him.

If the Heavenly Monarch were to know that he had fallen in love with a mortal, Su Su would surely be like his third uncle had said, unable to seek life and unable to seek death. While the two of them were discussing how to proceed, Lian Song discovered Su Jin hiding quietly outside. He quickly stopped Ye Hua, preventing Su Jin from hearing these words.

Episode 16 Recap

Yan Zhi took the army tally to find Liyuan and brought him out of the desolate cold region. Li Jing was furious, ordering his men to quickly pursue and bring Liyuan back, specifically instructing everyone to act secretly. Su Jin went to offer tea to the leaders. Under Lian Song's cover, Ye Hua was finally able to get away and return to the mortal realm to reunite with Su Su.

Unexpectedly, Su Jin suddenly turned back and requested to see Ye Hua outside the room. Inside the room, Lian Song didn't expect Su Jin to return temporarily. He was even more worried that if Su Jin discovered Ye Hua was not there and reported it to the Heavenly Monarch, it would cause great trouble.

Seeing the candlelight inside the room, Lian Song had to extinguish the light to signal his refusal to meet Su Jin, thus temporarily getting rid of her. Ye Hua returned to the thatched cottage, but found Su Su was not home. Ye Hua hurriedly rushed to the bamboo forest where he had disappeared, only to see Su Su alone, asleep next to a large tree, holding the bow and arrows he had left behind at the time.

Su Su heard someone coming, opened her eyes and saw Ye Hua standing not far away. She was speechless, with tears streaming down her face. Su Su stepped forward and hugged Ye Hua tightly, crying and asking if he knew he had been gone for half a year. Was there something life-threatening? Ye Hua didn't want to deceive Su Su, so he only told her there wasn't.

Su Su blamed him, asking why he suddenly left and what kind of urgent matter couldn't be explained clearly before leaving. Ye Hua didn't know how to answer. Although Su Su blamed Ye Hua verbally, her heart was only filled with worry and joy over his return. After Ye Hua spent the night with Su Su, he woke up in the morning and reluctantly told Su Su that he had to leave again.

Su Su asked, puzzled, how long he would be gone this time. Ye Hua said with difficulty, "One year or two years." Su Su was understanding. She didn't blame Ye Hua or cling to him. She kept all her reluctance and grievances in her heart. Ye Hua gave Su Su a bronze mirror. He told Su Su that this mirror could talk to him.

No matter where he was, as long as he heard Su Su's call, he would talk with her. Although he felt utterly reluctant to leave Su Su, Ye Hua was after all the Crown Prince of the Heavenly Palace. To prevent the heavenly tribes from discovering him, Ye Hua had to leave. Ye Hua thought hard for the entire night.

The next day, he told Lian Song that in order to save Su Su's life and to give their relationship a good ending, he had decided to use the opportunity of the war with the Merfolk Tribe to fake his death under the eyes of everyone. Lian Song asked worriedly, "But you are the Crown Prince of the heavenly tribes. If you fake your death, you will have to give up the entire realm?"

Ye Hua told Lian Song with extreme determination, "Between the realm and Su Su, I only want Su Su." Only then did Lian Song realize that Ye Hua's feelings this time were serious. The leaders accompanied Su Jin in paying respects. Seeing Ye Hua personally come, the leaders still felt the importance the heavenly tribes placed on them. Ye Hua held a banquet to entertain the leaders.

During the banquet, everyone said that Ye Hua's appearance was truly similar to that of the former Mo Yuan High God. Seeing Ye Hua, everyone was filled with emotion about the former God of War, Mo Yuan. Taking advantage of everyone's nostalgic feelings for Mo Yuan, Ye Hua intended to persuade everyone to unite and fight against the Merfolk Tribe.

The leaders understood the meaning behind Ye Hua's words, but they beat around the bush, not expressing any desire to return to the battlefield to fight for the heavenly tribes. Ye Hua sincerely expressed his gratitude to the leaders for their past grace in protecting the heavenly tribes.

Furthermore, with the greater good of the realm in mind, he implored the leaders to entrust their soldiers to him, allowing him to fight a battle with the Merfolk, and he promised he would surely defeat the Merfolk Tribe. Helplessly, although the leaders showed great respect for Ye Hua, they still did not state their position on sending troops for the battle. Ye Hua looked at Su Jin.

Su Jin understood Ye Hua's intention, and specially stepped forward to appeal to the leaders' emotions and reason by mentioning how her own clansmen had bravely led the charge. Finally, the leaders willingly pledged their allegiance to Ye Hua. A general told Ye Hua that if they wanted to go to war with the Merfolk Tribe, the Water Monarch of Chang Hai was a not insignificant obstacle.

Chang Hai had not only ceded land to the Merfolk Tribe to seek peace, but it was also heard that the Water Monarch was going to marry one of his princesses to the leader of the Merfolk Tribe. If the heavenly tribes truly wanted to go to war with the Merfolk Tribe, then they must first resolve the issue with the Water Monarch of Chang Hai.

Ye Hua returned to the Heavenly Palace and requested a mission from the Heavenly Monarch. To prevent the Merfolk Tribe from continuing to harm the world, Ye Hua hoped he could go to Chang Hai and find an opportunity to make the Water Monarch of Chang Hai completely break ties with the Merfolk Tribe. This way, the Water Monarch of Chang Hai would voluntarily request troops from the heavenly tribes.

This would allow the heavenly tribes to legitimately send troops against the Merfolk Tribe. The Heavenly Monarch heard Ye Hua's reasoning, thought it made a lot of sense, and granted his request. Bai Fengjiu held a fruit in her hand, but she was eating it while completely drunk. She staggered around the Heavenly Palace and unexpectedly ran into the Divine Monarch.

Using her drunkenness as an excuse, Bai Fengjiu actually hugged the Divine Monarch, shouting that she liked him, liked him terribly, terribly much. Chengyu and Si Ming stood in the distance, watching Little Princess Bai Fengjiu and the Divine Monarch chatting so animatedly. Chengyu was secretly overjoyed. Si Ming teased Chengyu, asking if she also gave Third Highness this fruit back then to capture Lian Song. Unexpectedly, when Chengyu heard Lian Song's name, she instantly became angry.

Episode 17 Recap

The Divine Monarch carried the drunk Bai Fengjiu back to Tai Chen Palace and happened to bump into Lian Song. Lian Song joked to Ye Hua, saying it's not easy being the Green Hills' son-in-law. The Divine Monarch carried Bai Fengjiu to the room where the immortal maidens stayed and gently placed Bai Fengjiu on her bed. In her sleep, Bai Fengjiu was still tightly calling out Dong Hua's name.

In the morning, Bai Fengjiu remembered her drunken state from yesterday and felt extremely ashamed. She timidly went to Dong Hua to apologize. Dong Hua, taking advantage of Bai Fengjiu's inattention, cleverly elicited from her that Bai Qian was indeed High Immortal Si Yin, and that Mo Yuan's immortal body was being nurtured in the fox den in Green Hills. After one year and nine months, Ye Hua returned to the thatched cottage again.

Su Su cried and asked Ye Hua if he knew how long he had been gone, and if he wasn't afraid that one day when he returned, she would already be old. Ye Hua hugged Su Su tightly and told her that he was doing everything he could to make them stay together forever, and that he just needed a little more time. Ye Hua made Su Su a sumptuous dinner.

Halfway through the meal, Ye Hua couldn't bear to look at Su Su's disappointed eyes and told her, lowering his head, that he had to go on a long journey again. This time, Su Su begged Ye Hua to take her with him, saying that since they were husband and wife, they should share both fortune and misfortune. After much thought, Ye Hua couldn't bear to leave Su Su alone there again and decided to take Su Su with him.

For ease of action, the next day Ye Hua had Su Su dress as a man and also gave the Yuqing Kunlun Fan to Su Su. Although Su Su didn't know it was a magical artifact, since it was a gift from Ye Hua, Su Su kept it close to her person. Su Su and Ye Hua journeyed through mountains and rivers. Although the journey was arduous, being together they felt that this was the best time.

They finally reached the territory of Chang Hai and encountered the Merfolk Tribe. Ye Hua told Su Su to hide behind a tree while he fought the Merfolk Tribe. In the midst of the fight, the Second Prince of West Sea, who was also the Eldest Senior Disciple from Kunlun Void back then, Die Feng, happened to pass by with his soldiers and lent a hand.

Seeing Su Su, who was so similar to Si Yin and also held the Yuqing Kunlun Fan, as well as Ye Hua, who looked exactly like Mo Yuan, he was greatly astonished. However, Su Su was clearly a woman and a mortal, which left Die Feng puzzled. Ye Hua secretly revealed his identity as the Crown Prince of the heavenly tribes to Die Feng. Die Feng then brought the two of them into the immortal realm of Chang Hai.

Ye Hua and Die Feng went out to discuss matters, and Su Su wandered around. She unintentionally overheard the Second Princess of Chang Hai complaining to her maidservant about not wanting to marry the leader of the Merfolk Tribe. Su Su was accidentally discovered by the princess. Fortunately, Ye Hua appeared in time and quietly took Su Su away. Su Su told Ye Hua that this place was really nice, but it only smelled of the sea.

Su Su told Ye Hua that she really wanted to smell the scent of peach blossoms. Ye Hua remembered Zhe Yan's Ten Mile Peach Blossom Forest. Ye Hua used his magic to take Su Su to the Ten Mile Peach Blossom Forest. When Su Su saw the peach blossoms in full bloom, she was overjoyed. The two of them also secretly took a pot of Peach Blossom Wine from Zhe Yan.

As Su Su smelled the wine, she felt as if she had drunk it before. In the Heavenly Palace, the Divine Monarch and Lian Song were playing chess and chatting. Lian Song told the Divine Monarch that the Heavenly Monarch had decided to hold the wedding of Ye Hua and Bai Qian of Green Hills on the third day of next month. Dong Hua was puzzled as to why the wedding would be held in such a hurry.

Lian Song casually said that perhaps Bai Qian of Green Hills was worried about being divorced again and something going wrong. Just then, Bai Fengjiu, who had come to serve tea, heard this. Bai Fengjiu was unhappy with Lian Song discussing her aunt in this way. To protect her aunt, Bai Fengjiu argued with Lian Song. This scene, seen by the Divine Monarch, made him think that this little girl Bai Fengjiu was quite cute.

In Green Hills, they received the news that the Heavenly Monarch intended to complete the wedding on the third day of next month. However, at this time, Bai Qian was nowhere to be found. The Fox Emperor and the Fox Queen didn't know what to do. In his frustration, the Fox Emperor said it would be better to just take this opportunity to break the engagement. Zhe Yan quickly stopped him, saying absolutely not.

Bai Zhen also said that the previous incident with Sang Ji breaking the engagement had already caused their Little Fifth (Bai Qian) to suffer endless grievances in the Four Seas and Eight Deserts. If she were to break the engagement with the heavenly tribes again now, who would ever dare to propose marriage to Green Hills in the future?

Zhe Yan offered a plan: Since it was now widely known that Bai Qian had sealed the Donghuang Bell, they should just tell the heavenly tribes that Bai Qian was injured during the sealing and needed several tens of thousands of years to recover. During this time, they could buy time to search for Bai Qian. The Second Princess of Chang Hai, Lü Xiu, surprisingly fell in love with Ye Hua at first sight.

Lü Xiu inquired with Su Su whether Ye Hua was married. Su Su couldn't tell her that she was Ye Hua's wife. She only told Lü Xiu that Ye Hua already had a main wife at home, and she was a mortal.

This second princess, however, mistakenly thought that as a mortal, Ye Hua must have dreamed of becoming immortal, and since she liked Ye Hua, it would be the perfect opportunity for him to divorce his mortal wife at home and be with her, thus becoming immortal. Hearing the second princess say this, Su Su was unhappy, but she was also worried. Ye Hua had told her he was a cultivator. Was becoming immortal his biggest dream?

Now that such a rare opportunity was presented to Ye Hua, would he abandon her? Liyuan escaped from the Demon Realm. Liyuan's mother was from the Merfolk Tribe of Chang Hai, so Liyuan decided to flee to Chang Hai, using the power of the Merfolk to contend with Li Jing.

Episode 18 Recap

Die Feng and Ye Hua inspect the people's conditions. Chang Hai's soldiers, in their war with the Merfolk Tribe, are severely wounded and more than half injured. Die Feng introduces the Crown Prince Ye Hua to everyone. Everyone kneels and bows, pleading for the divine Tribes to send troops to fight the Merfolk Tribe and restore peace to Chang Hai. Ye Hua, accepting everyone's request, publicly pledges that the divine Tribes will not stand by.

Given how cruel and tyrannical the Merfolk Tribe is, he, as the Crown Prince of the divine Tribes, will surely ensure peace is restored to Chang Hai and there will be no more bloodshed. Su Su accidentally bumps into an injured soldier. For some reason, Su Su feels unusually nauseous when she smells the blood. Ye Hua notices Su Su is unwell and quickly finds an army doctor to examine her.

Unexpectedly, the doctor's diagnosis is that Su Su is pregnant. Although Ye Hua doesn't show it on his face, he is inwardly very happy. This is his and Su Su's first child. Su Su sees that Ye Hua hasn't been smiling and worries if he doesn't like children. Ye Hua has thousands of words in his heart but doesn't know how to express them.

He can only hold Su Su tightly in his arms, and the two of them embrace happily. Yan Zhi and Liyuan arrive at the Merfolk Tribe. The leader of the Merfolk Tribe is Liyuan's maternal uncle. Liyuan humbles himself and asks the Merfolk Tribe to borrow troops to make a comeback. But the Merfolk Tribe leader shows no regard for the kinship with Liyuan. He not only arrogantly refuses the request for troops but also directly drives Liyuan away.

Liyuan endures great humiliation here at the Merfolk Tribe and leaves angrily with Yan Zhi. The leader of the Merfolk Tribe is ambitious. He is not satisfied with the Chang Hai Sea Lord's concessions. Currently, he wants to occupy Chang Hai and become its master. Therefore, he completely disregards the proposal of marriage alliance put forward by the Chang Hai Sea Lord.

The Merfolk Tribe sends the leader's youngest son to the Crystal Palace to attend a banquet and hear the Sea Lord's arrangements for the marriage alliance. Before the Merfolk Tribe's youngest son, the Chang Hai Sea Lord is subservient and fawning, without any demeanor of a Chang Hai Sea Lord. The Sea Lord has Lv Xiu step forward to toast the youngest son. This youngest son takes a fancy to Lv Xiu's beauty and even publicly molests her.

And the cowardly Sea Lord doesn't even dare to protect his own daughter. Die Feng and Ye Hua arrive at the hall. The Merfolk youngest son speaks rudely to Ye Hua and even makes physical provocations. Ye Hua takes action to teach the Merfolk a lesson. Die Feng reveals Ye Hua's identity as the Crown Prince to everyone. The Sea Lord is terrified.

Under Ye Hua's pressure and Die Feng's persuasion, the Sea Lord finally orders this youngest son to be taken down, beheaded, and used as a sacrifice before battle. This act causes the Chang Hai Sea Lord to formally break with and declare war on the Merfolk Tribe. With nowhere else to turn, the Sea Lord can only request troops from Ye Hua. Everything is within Ye Hua's predictions.

The great war between the Merfolk Tribe and the divine Tribes is imminent. With the great war imminent, Ye Hua cannot let the pregnant Su Su remain in danger. He sends Su Su back to Junji Mountain. Ye Hua promises Su Su that this is his last long journey and he will definitely return to reunite with her in half a month. Su Su believes Ye Hua unconditionally.

Before leaving, Ye Hua specifically instructs Su Su not to leave this bamboo forest no matter what, and to wait for him here, saying he will definitely plant a Ten Mile Peach Blossom Forest that belongs to the two of them for her. In order to prevent the divine Tribes from discovering Su Su, Ye Hua sets up an immortal barrier outside the thatched cottage before feeling at ease to go and meet the enemy.

Ye Hua has already prepared to feign death in this battle. He requests the Heavenly Monarch to grant him permission, stating he will definitely bring back the Merfolk Tribe leader within seven days. Lian Song repeatedly advises Ye Hua, asking if he truly doesn't want power and status but only the beauty? However, Ye Hua's resolve is set. He asks Lian Song to lend him a hand. Lian Song sighs, saying perhaps this is karma.

He made the engagement between Ye Hua and Green Hills's Bai Qian that day, which he considers a misdeed of his. Now he will definitely do his best to help Ye Hua fulfill his wish. Ye Hua understands that if his feigned death is successful, it means completely breaking ties with the divine Tribes. Ye Hua feels he should go and visit his mother.

Ye Hua was taken away by the Heavenly Monarch since he was young, and Le Xu Empress could not personally raise Ye Hua, always feeling that she, as a mother, failed Ye Hua. For some reason, after hearing the news that Ye Hua was going to wage a great war with the Merfolk Tribe, Le Xu has been feeling uneasy. Seeing his mother like this, Ye Hua also feels extremely distressed.

On the day of the great war, Ye Hua leads the heavenly soldiers to Chang Hai to set up camp. Unexpectedly, Su jin appears in the military camp dressed in military attire. Lian Song worries that Su jin's arrival might cause changes to Ye Hua's plan of feigning death. Lian Song pulls Su jin out of the tent and advises her not to harbor any inappropriate thoughts about Ye Hua anymore.

Lian Song is worried that Su jin might discover Ye Hua's plan to feign death and specifically instructs Ye Hua to be extra cautious. Ye Hua tells Lian Song that the Merfolk Tribe's Soul-Cleaving Blade can turn him to dust. In order to make his feigned death realistic, only by taking this blow can the Heavenly Monarch be convinced. Lian Song doesn't allow Ye Hua to joke about his own life.

Ye Hua guarantees that he will maintain control and will not truly turn to dust. At that time, Lian Song can send him to a hidden place. Lian Song cannot refute Ye Hua and can only agree to his request.

Episode 19 Recap

Thunder rumbled and lightning flashed in the sky, bolts of heavenly thunder rolling down. Ye Hua led the heavenly soldiers and the Merfolk Tribe army in battle. Su Su heard the rolling thunder from outside and suddenly felt an inexplicable panic. She used the bronze mirror to call Ye Hua, but no one responded in the mirror for a long time. This made Su Su feel afraid. She felt uneasy about the night.

Su Su couldn't sleep due to worry, constantly holding the bronze mirror and sitting by the bed, waiting for Ye Hua's response. On the battlefield, Ye Hua and the Merfolk leader crossed swords. Amidst the flashes of blades, Ye Hua took a direct blow from the Merfolk Tribe's blade. Ye Hua also struck down the Merfolk Tribe leader with his sword. Everyone saw Ye Hua injured and cried out his name in alarm.

The bronze mirror captured the sound of everyone shouting Ye Hua's name and relayed it to Su Su. Su Su couldn't see what was happening on the other side of the mirror, only hearing urgent calls for Ye Hua one after another. This panicked Su Su. She didn't know what was happening with Ye Hua, nor whether he was alive or dead. Ignoring her condition, Su Su rushed out of the thatched cottage wanting to find Ye Hua.

Su Su was like a lonely duckweed between heaven and earth, crying out to heaven with no response, crying out to the earth with no answer. She called Ye Hua's name repeatedly; he was her entire life. The mirror in Ye Hua's hand fell to the ground in the chaos and was picked up by Su Jin. Su Jin heard Su Su's voice, came to the thatched cottage, and brought Su Su to the Heavenly Palace.

The Heavenly Monarch interrogated Su Su, asking who she was and what her relationship with Crown Prince Ye Hua was. Su Su was startled and didn't know what to do about this sudden turn of events. The Heavenly Monarch wanted to confine Su Su in the Monster-Locking Tower. Although Su Su didn't know what kind of place it was, her heart was filled with fear. Le Xu Empress came to the hall.

Su Su begged Le Xu Empress to save her life. Having no other choice, Su Su told Le Xu that she was pregnant with Ye Hua's child. Le Xu examined Su Su's pulse and found that what she said was true. After the great war, Ye Hua's fate was uncertain. To preserve Ye Hua's bloodline, Le Xu risked her life to plead with the Heavenly Monarch for Su Su. The Heavenly Monarch confined Su Su in the abandoned Zhaohua Palace.

This series of twists and frights caused Su Su abdominal pain. As soon as she was confined in Zhaohua Palace, she collapsed. After taking that blow during the great war, Ye Hua was in critical condition. Fortunately, his soul was finally preserved, preventing him from turning to dust.

After waking up, Lian Song told Ye Hua that on the night he was injured three days ago, Su Su had run out of the immortal barrier he set up and was discovered by the Heavenly Monarch. Hearing this, Ye Hua became agitated and wanted to go to the Heavenly Palace to rescue Su Su. Lian Song quickly stopped Ye Hua, saying that Su Su's life was not in immediate danger, which allowed Ye Hua to slowly calm down.

Ye Hua told Lian Song that there was only one way to save Su Su's life now, which was to make the Heavenly Monarch believe that Su Su was insignificant in his heart. Only then might the Heavenly Monarch spare Su Su. Ling Bao Tianzun was holding a Dharma assembly and sent invitations to the Four Seas and Eight Desolates. Xuan Nv used the opportunity of sending invitations to find Li Jing in the mortal realm.

Xuan Nv told Li Jing that she was pregnant with his child. Although Li Jing had much disgust towards Xuan Nv, hearing about the child softened his heart little by little. Ye Hua was already seriously injured and constantly worried about Su Su, which led to his injuries being difficult to heal. Su Su, who was confined in Zhaohua Palace, didn't know if Ye Hua was alive or dead and suffered equally.

Su Su only had that bronze mirror, but Ye Hua's mirror was in Su Jin's hands. Bai Fengjiu heard from Si Ming that Ye Hua had provoked a mortal woman in the mortal realm. Bai Fengjiu felt it was unfair to her aunt and secretly came to Zhaohua Palace where Su Su was held, wanting to see who it was that dared to contend for the Crown Prince with her aunt.

But the door was made of millennium-old cold iron, and Bai Fengjiu couldn't get in. She could only shout to Su Su from outside the door. Su Su was confined here day after day, and the immortal maids who brought meals never spoke to her. Su Su heard Bai Fengjiu's voice and anxiously asked if she knew how Ye Hua was doing now. Unfortunately, Bai Fengjiu had been in Tai Chen Palace and knew little about Ye Hua's affairs.

Now, she didn't even know where Ye Hua was or whether he was alive or dead. For some reason, Bai Fengjiu couldn't bring herself to hate this mortal; she even felt pity for her. Li Jing and Xuan Nv came to the Heavenly Palace for Ling Bao Tianzun's Dharma assembly. After arriving at their temporary residence, Xuan Nv suffered unbearable abdominal pain. Li Jing had to leave first for some business.

The witch doctor examined Xuan Nv and discovered that the little prince inside her had long since lost its heartbeat. This was a major issue. The witch doctor didn't dare to hide it and had to tell Xuan Nv everything. Xuan Nv cherished the rare patience Li Jing showed her after she became pregnant. She threatened the witch doctor with the lives of her entire clan, demanding that she ensure she give birth to this child no matter what.

Li Jing came to the Lotus Pond to see the Cold Moon Lotus that was sent to the Heavenly Palace back then. He happened to meet Ling Bao Tianzun, and as they were catching up, a fire suddenly broke out in the direction of Zhaohua Palace. Li Jing rushed to extinguish the fire and broke into Zhaoren Palace, rescuing the unconscious Su Su. Seeing Su Su's appearance, Li Jing was greatly shocked.

He carried Su Su back to his temporary residence and had the witch doctor treat her injuries. Li Jing fully believed that the woman before him was Si Yin, but the witch doctor told Li Jing that this person was just a mortal woman. Li Jing calmed down and looked again, discovering that this person had no immortal aura at all; she was indeed a mortal. This caused Li Jing's heart to plummet into the abyss once more.

After Su Su woke up, she timidly asked Li Jing if he had seen Ye Hua. Li Jing didn't understand how a mortal woman could be connected to the Crown Prince of the divine Tribes. Just then, Le Xu Empress came to take Su Su to Ye Hua. As Su Su left, the witch doctor quietly told Li Jing that this mortal woman was actually pregnant.

Episode 20 Recap

The Heavenly Monarch went to Chang Hai to see Ye Hua's injuries. The Heavenly Monarch intended to test Ye Hua's attitude towards Su Su. Ye Hua calmed his emotions and reported to the Heavenly Monarch that on that day he fought against the Golden-horned Beast and was injured, and it was thanks to Su Su's care, and now the child in Su Su's belly could be considered his way of repaying that kindness.

The Heavenly Monarch tentatively believed what Ye Hua said. He told Ye Hua that since this mortal had the bloodline of the divine Tribes, he would let Su Su temporarily stay in the Heavenly Palace and make plans after the child was born. Su Jin proactively suggested in front of the Heavenly Monarch and Ye Hua that it would be better to grant Su Su the title of a concubine.

The Heavenly Monarch was furious and firmly disagreed to confer a mortal the title of concubine. Ye Hua knew that although Su Jin was seemingly pleading for him, in reality, she wanted the Heavenly Monarch to completely abandon the idea of him wanting to confer Su Su the title of concubine. After Su Jin and the Heavenly Monarch left, Su Jin gave the bronze mirror to the Heavenly Monarch.

Su Jin told the Heavenly Monarch that if Ye Hua truly didn't care about this person, why would he give her such a precious magical artifact? To prevent Ye Hua from repeating Sang Ji's mistake, the Heavenly Monarch knew in his heart that this matter must be handled cautiously. The Heavenly Monarch ordered Su Jin to keep an eye on Su Su for him.

Ye Hua's attendant returned to Chang Hai from the Heavenly Palace and specifically reported the recent situation in the Heavenly Palace to Ye Hua. The soldier told Ye Hua that Zhaohua Palace had accidentally caught fire the previous day, nearly injuring Su Su. Hearing this, Ye Hua became extremely anxious. Regardless of his own injuries, he ordered to return to the Heavenly Palace immediately. Su Su had been receiving training at Le Xu Empress's place.

Ye Hua returned to the Heavenly Palace and came to his mother's residence. Su Su finally got to see Ye Hua and excitedly called out Ye Hua's name, wanting to go forward. Unexpectedly, Ye Hua had a cold and indifferent expression, as if Su Su was just an unrelated stranger. Ye Hua was determined that for Su Su's life, he could not let anyone see how much he cared for Su Su. Bai Fengjiu served tea to Dong Hua.

Dong Hua probed Bai Fengjiu, saying he saw her coming from the direction of Xi Ling Palace a few days ago. Besides Xi Ling Palace, that direction leads to Zhuxian Terrace. What was she doing there? In a panic, Bai Fengjiu lied, saying she went to Zhuxian Terrace to enjoy the moon. After hearing Bai Fengjiu's string of nonsense, Dong Hua revealed a faint smile.

Privately, Si Ming specifically told Bai Fengjiu that Zhuxian Terrace was an ominous place for immortals. After hearing this, Bai Fengjiu felt utterly mortified. Ye Hua finally got rid of everyone and came to Yi Lan Fang Hua to meet Su Su alone.

Ye Hua dismissed all the immortal maids sent by Le Xu and only brought a little immortal maid from his own palace who had just ascended from the mortal realm, Nai Nai, to be responsible for taking care of Su Su's daily life. Su Su knew that Ye Hua was actually the Crown Prince of the Nine Heavens. Su Su also finally understood why Ye Hua had always been unwilling to take her to meet his family.

Ye Hua instructed Su Su to be careful in speech and action in Xi Ling Palace from now on. Not only that, he would be cold and indifferent to her in front of outsiders, but all of this was to protect her, to prevent people from noticing her existence. Although Su Su didn't understand why this was the case, as long as Ye Hua said it, Su Su believed it.

After returning to the Heavenly Palace, Ye Hua had been busy handling official duties. Su Su was alone in the palace, lonely and solitary, with only the palace maid Nai Nai accompanying her. To prevent others from noticing Su Su's existence, Ye Hua even had to use immortal magic to become invisible when visiting Su Su. Su Jin came to see Su Su.

In her words, she was showing off her experiences of growing up with Ye Hua since childhood, deliberately using these words to provoke Su Su. Su Jin tricked Su Su, saying there was a Dharma assembly and Le Xu Empress asked her to take Su Su to watch the fun. Su Su believed Su Jin's words and followed Su Jin there. Of course, she didn't know that from the moment she stepped out the door, a trap was waiting for her. . .

Episode 21 Recap

Su Jin took Su Su all the way to Lingbao Tianzun's Shangqing Realm. Halfway there, they met Sang Ji and Shao Xin. Shao Xin was pregnant now and her body was very heavy. The first time Shao Xin saw Su Su, if it weren't for the fact that this person had no immortal aura at all, Shao Xin would have really thought she saw Aunt Bai Qian.

The Heavenly Monarch had specifically instructed that, to avoid adverse effects on Ye Hua, everyone who knew Su Su's origin must keep silent about it. But Su Jin wanted to make Su Su a laughingstock of the Nine Heavens, to let everyone know that Su Su was a woman without status or title.

Su Jin deliberately told Sang Ji that Su Su was Ye Hua's benefactor in the mortal realm, and now pregnant with Ye Hua's child, she had come to the Heavenly Palace. With Su Jin's introduction, Sang Ji sighed, not expecting Ye Hua to have such a fleeting romance. Before the dharma assembly began, Ye Hua went to Lingbao Tianzun's Shangqing Realm to recuperate.

Su Jin brought Su Su to the Shangqing Realm and coincidentally met Ye Hua and the Heavenly Monarch discussing matters. Su Jin deliberately brought Su Su at this moment; she intentionally let Su Su hear their conversation. The Heavenly Monarch told Ye Hua not to delay his marriage with Bai Qian of Green Hills because of a mortal. Ye Hua agreed in front of the Heavenly Monarch, which Su Su saw.

Su Su was discovered by the Heavenly Monarch and severely reprimanded. Ye Hua saw that Su Jin had brought Su Su here and felt uneasy. Su Jin pretended to have kindly brought Su Su to see Ye Hua. Ye Hua warned Su Jin that the affairs of Xi Ling Palace would not be for an outsider like her to interfere with in the future. Su Jin was rebuked by Ye Hua and left resentfully.

Ye Hua specifically instructed Su Su not to interact too much with Su Jin. On the way Ye Hua escorted Su Su back to Yi Lan Fang Hua, he saw Sang Ji kneeling with Shao Xin in front of the Heavenly Monarch. Sang Ji wanted to take advantage of the solemnity of today's dharma assembly to ask the Heavenly Monarch to grant Shao Xin a proper status.

The Heavenly Monarch still could not let go of Sang Ji's matter and did not grant his request. Nai Nai brought the Yuqing Kunlun Fan to the Shangqing Realm. Someone secretly used magic to trip Nai Nai, causing the Yuqing Kunlun Fan to fall to the ground. This startled Lingbao Tianzun's mount, the Fire Phoenix. The Fire Phoenix's demonic nature had not been eliminated and it attacked everyone, severely injuring Bai Fengjiu.

Li Jing desperately intervened to subdue and stop the phoenix. Si Ming quickly brought Bai Fengjiu back to Tai Chen Palace. Dong Hua ordered everyone to withdraw. Dong Hua consumed his immortal power to save Bai Fengjiu. When Bai Fengjiu woke up, she felt very guilty. She had originally come to repay a kindness, but instead, she had troubled the Emperor Lord and caused him to consume his immortal power to save her.

Bai Fengjiu did not want to disgrace Green Hills and decided to secretly slip away. However, her severe injuries had not healed, she had no strength at all, and she fainted at the entrance of Tai Chen Palace. Dong Hua passed by and carried her back. Ye Hua took responsibility for all the faults on behalf of Su Su. He pleaded guilty to the Heavenly Monarch, saying it was he who gave the Yuqing Kunlun Fan to Su Su.

Su Su wanted to defend herself, but Ye Hua was worried she would anger the Heavenly Monarch and cost her life. In front of everyone, Ye Hua rebuked Su Su, forbidding her to speak. Su Su looked at Ye Hua's stern and cold face and was speechless for a moment. Lingbao Tianzun came forward to apologize to the Heavenly Monarch. Taking into account Lingbao Tianzun's reputation, this matter was settled.

Ye Hua publicly punished Su Su and Nai Nai, confining everyone in Yi Lan Fang Hua to their residence. Without his command, they were not allowed to leave Yi Lan Fang Hua by half a step. What seemed like punishment was actually Ye Hua's attempt to use the confinement to protect Su Su. The Heavenly Monarch questioned Su Jin why she pleaded for that mortal. Su Jin offered herself to eliminate Su Su for the Heavenly Monarch. As a return, Su Jin requested the Heavenly Monarch to bestow her upon Ye Hua as a secondary consort. The Heavenly Monarch granted Su Jin's request.

Episode 22 Recap

The Heavenly Monarch received a memorial about the rebellion in the Northern Wasteland. The memorial stated that the Chiyan Jinni Beast was actually among the rebel forces. The Heavenly Monarch was furious. Ever since Ye Hua went to the mortal realm to subdue the Chiyan Jinni Beast, he was first injured fighting that vicious creature, and then nearly had his soul scattered during the Jiaoren Tribe war.

The Heavenly Monarch never expected the Crown Prince he had taught with such care to be so vulnerable. To regain the Heavenly Monarch's trust, Ye Hua voluntarily requested to go to the Northern Wasteland to quell the rebellion. In front of the assembled officials, the Heavenly Monarch sternly warned Ye Hua that this would be his last chance. If he failed this time, not only would he be punished, but everyone in Xiwu Palace would also be implicated.

Not only that, but the Heavenly Monarch also used Su Su's matter this time as a pretext to replace all the immortal maids in Ye Hua's palace. Lian Song secretly told Ye Hua that the Heavenly Monarch was likely already suspicious of him, which was why he was replacing all the loyal people in his Xiwu Palace. Lian Song was very worried and specifically warned Ye Hua to be extra careful.

To protect the Wing Tribe from the calamity of Liyuan's rebellion, Li Jing personally requested Ye Hua to allow him to go to the Northern Wasteland to quell the rebellion. Ye Hua was worried whether the Wing Tribe people were truly on Li Jing's side and would fight with him against the former Great Prince. Li Jing knew that his voluntary offer alone was not enough to make Ye Hua believe him.

Composing himself, Li Jing told Ye Hua that he only hoped that if the Wing Tribe achieved military merit this time, the Celestial Tribe would no longer implicate the Wing Tribe because of the Jiaoren Tribe matter. Ye Hua found Li Jing's words reasonable. Moreover, this could also be considered quelling a rebellion for the Wing Tribe, and it would be even better if the Winged Monarch could assist.

Since being confined to her residence, Su Su had only herself and Nai Nai to rely on in the cold and desolate Yi Lan Fang Hua. These days were even more agonizing than those on Junji Mountain. One day, Su Su took Nai Nai's suggestion and went to bring Dong Hua some tonic soup to ease their relationship.

As Su Su was leaving the door with the soup, she heard Su Jin's mournful and sorrowful voice coming from her bronze mirror. Su Jin was crying and asking Ye Hua, "You married a mortal just to get revenge on me for betraying you and marrying the Heavenly Monarch, isn't that right? But what could I do? Which woman from the Four Seas and Eight Wildernesses could resist the Heavenly Monarch's favor? Ye Hua, you still love me, right?

You call her Su Su just because my name has the character 'Su' in it." Hearing this, Su Su dropped and broke the tonic soup in her panic and returned to her bedchamber in a distraught state. Before departing, Ye Hua went to Su Jin's bedchamber and asked her to return the bronze mirror. Su Su thought Ye Hua had discovered something and felt anxious.

After retrieving the bronze mirror, Ye Hua didn't say much to Su Jin and left with a cold expression. Ye Hua came to Yi Lan Fang Hua and guiltily told Su Su that he would be going to the Northern Wasteland for half a year. Su Su deliberately avoided Ye Hua, pretending to be unconcerned about him. Ye Hua thought Su Su was just angry that he was leaving her again, and misunderstandings arose between them.

When Li Jing returned to the Wing Tribe, many chieftains had many grievances about Li Jing sending troops to suppress Liyuan and did not want to dispatch troops. Li Jing exerted his lordly authority, disregarding everyone's opposition, and forcibly dispatched troops.

To save the fetus in her womb, Xuan Nv took a desperate risk and inquired with a witch doctor about a type of herb she had heard about when she was in Green Hills, which could induce the birth of a sickly child, and another spell that could bring a sickly child back from the dead. The witch doctor was panicked and at a loss upon hearing this.

He told Xuan Nv that this type of spell was against the will of heaven, and if she really used it, there would be karmic retribution. But Xuan Nv knew that this pregnancy was the only way to keep Li Jing. She had to give birth to this child no matter what.

The Northern Wasteland had never had warfare before, and the Celestial Tribe soldiers and generals had never fought here, so the complicated terrain was very disadvantageous for Ye Hua. Li Jing suggested that High God Bai Zhen's residence was in Xiashou in the Northern Wasteland, and since Ye Hua was already engaged to Bai Qian, why not ask High God Bai Zhen for help in mapping the Northern Wasteland's terrain for the Celestial Tribe? Ye Hua summoned Bai Zhen.

Bai Zhen put on a serious and proper appearance and warned Ye Hua that he was helping him for Xiaowu's sake. If he ever wronged Xiaowu in the future, just as he was helping him today, he would certainly have a way to deal with him in the future. Bai Zhen promised Ye Hua that the terrain map of the Northern Wasteland would be sent to Ye Hua's main tent within a maximum of three months.

Zhe Yan came to find Bai Zhen. Both of them were very worried about Bai Qian's whereabouts. Zhe Yan smiled and told Bai Zhen not to worry too much. He had observed the celestial phenomena last night and found that not only was Bai Qian's life not in danger, but her Red Luan Star had moved, indicating that the little lass had likely fallen in love. Bai Zhen and Zhe Yan genuinely felt for Bai Qian.

They discussed and said that if Bai Qian truly took a liking to someone else before Ye Hua, then they would break off the engagement with the Celestial Tribe. One chance each, and no one would lose out. Dong Hua was strolling in the Heavenly Palace. For many days now, Bai Fengjiu had been following the Emperor Lord in her Nine-Tailed Fox form.

Bai Fengjiu craved the feeling of being taken care of by the Emperor Lord, but also worried if the Emperor Lord would be angry if he knew she was deceiving him. Bai Fengjiu thought the Emperor Lord was drunk and transformed into human form to speak her true feelings to him. Bai Fengjiu couldn't help but kiss the Emperor Lord. When she realized what she had done, she was so scared that she hurriedly fled in a panic.

Su Su's belly grew bigger each day. Nai Nai made paper lanterns to cheer Su Su up, but Su Su remained troubled. Bai Fengjiu thought Su Su looked very much like her aunt. Perhaps because of this, Bai Fengjiu always secretly came to visit Su Su. After accompanying Su Su for half a day, Su Su muttered to herself that she had figured out many things during this long time.

The infatuated Su Su believed Su Jin's words to be true; she thought Ye Hua didn't love her. So, Su Su decided that whether Ye Hua loved her or not, since they had made a vow to each other in the Dongze Great Wilderness, they were husband and wife. Su Su believed that her love would move Ye Hua, and one day, Ye Hua would also fall in love with her.

Three months later, Bai Zhen handed the terrain map of the Northern Wasteland to Ye Hua and sent someone to bring a message: if Bai Qian was ever wronged in the Celestial Tribe in the future, he would come to his doorstep to argue. Li Jing requested to be the vanguard and guaranteed that he would force the rebel army into a corner with no escape within three months.

Episode 23 Recap

Deep in the quiet night, Su Su softly called out to Ye Hua facing the bronze mirror. Year after year, she hadn't seen Ye Hua for half a year. Su Su forced back tears of longing and pretended to be relaxed as she told Ye Hua that the child in her belly had been restless lately, but she didn't want the child to come out so soon.

She was afraid that Ye Hua, as the father, wouldn't be able to witness the child's birth in person. Hearing Su Su enduring such humiliation and still trying to comfort him, Ye Hua, the dignified Crown Prince of the divine Tribes, was already in tears. Li Jing detonated a mountain flood, not only pushing Liyuan's rebel army into a corner with no escape but also trapping the creatures of the Wing Tribe realm in a flood.

The divine Tribes had many complaints about Li Jing's actions. Ye Hua ordered his troops to divide into five routes; one route was responsible for rescuing the disaster victims, and four routes were responsible for blocking the fleeing troops. Li Jing and Liyuan finally met in battle. Yan Zhi stood in front of Li Jing to block Liyuan's blade for him.

The Chiyan Jinni Beast suddenly appeared to protect Yan Zhi, and ultimately, the Chiyan Jinni Beast died under Liyuan's blade. Liyuan was finally no match for Li Jing and was defeated by his blade. The rebellion in the Northern Wasteland was finally quelled, and Ye Hua and others returned to the court victorious.

Upon receiving the news of Ye Hua's return to the palace, Su Jin immediately ordered someone to send a message to Su Su, saying that the Heavenly Monarch had granted permission for the female members of the Heavenly Palace to enjoy flowers at the lotus pond, and had specifically lifted Su Su's confinement, allowing her to go. Unexpectedly, when Su Su arrived at the lotus pond, she found only Su Jin there.

Su Jin tricked Su Su onto the Zhuxian Terrace. Nai Nai saw that something was wrong and was blocked from going forward, so she had to run to Ye Hua for help. Standing on the Zhuxian Terrace, Su Jin smiled coldly at Su Su, "Do you know? The Heavenly Monarch is granting me to Ye Hua as his wife." Su Su had never understood the rules and tricks of these divine beings.

She only felt a surge of blood in her chest and abdomen, not knowing if it was anger or confusion. Su Jin continued to smile primly, "Ye Hua and I are deeply in love. The Nine Heavens is not a place where a mortal like you should stay. After giving birth to the child, just jump down from here and go back to your mortal realm."

Su Su didn't know if jumping down could really take her back to Junji Mountain. She stared blankly and asked Su Jin, "Did Ye Hua tell me to go back? I am his wife, so naturally, I should follow him." At this moment, Ye Hua and many leaders rushed to the Zhuxian Terrace.

Su Jin seized the opportunity, feigned a quarrel with Su Su, turned around, and jumped into the Zhuxian Terrace, pretending to have been pushed down by Su Su. By the time Ye Hua stepped forward, it was too late. Su Jin's eyes were ultimately injured. Su Su hadn't even reacted to what had happened and was about to defend herself when Ye Hua looked coldly at Su Su, his eyes brewing with immense fury.

Su Su frantically and incoherently tried to explain to Ye Hua again and again. However, there was anger in Ye Hua's heart, but this anger was not directed at Su Su. It was because he had personally witnessed Su Jin feigning a quarrel with Su Su and jumping into the Zhuxian Terrace herself. But in front of the many leaders, he was unable to explain. Ye Hua could only hurriedly leave the Zhuxian Terrace carrying Su Jin.

The Heavenly Monarch and everyone else demanded severe punishment for Su Su. To save Su Su's life, Ye Hua requested the Heavenly Monarch if taking Su Su's eyes and adding three years of lightning punishment could quell the public anger. Three years of lightning punishment was already a severe punishment in the Heavenly Palace. Moreover, Su Su was a mere mortal; this was already enough to nearly take her life.

With the addition of her eyes, everyone no longer had any objections. Ye Hua told the Heavenly Monarch that Su Su had once shown him kindness and was carrying blood of the divine Tribes in her womb, so he was willing to endure these three years of lightning punishment for Su Su. With a gloomy expression, Ye Hua came before Su Su and told her that he had to take her eyes.

Su Su lost control, hysterically asking Ye Hua, "I didn't push her, why do you want my eyes? Why, why?" Ye Hua's expression was desolate, and he was choked with sobs. He held Su Su's hand and could only repeat again and again, "I will marry you, I will marry you, I will be your eyes." Ye Hua suppressed the grief in his heart and finally took Su Su's eyes. Su Su had her eyes gouged out.

Ye Hua went onto the Thunder Stage for Su Su. For three years of lightning punishment, forty-nine lightning strikes per day. Although it wouldn't take his life, each lightning strike felt like his primordial spirit was instantly torn apart. But no matter how painful the lightning punishment was, it wasn't even one ten-thousandth of the guilt and grief in Ye Hua's heart for being unable to protect Su Su.

After enduring the thunder, Ye Hua eagerly asked Lian Song if he was now qualified to be granted the Crown Prince's Seal after this Northern Wasteland rebellion. Lian Song thought for a moment and confirmed to Ye Hua that he had the military achievements from the Jiaoren Tribe war and the Northern Wasteland rebellion and was fully qualified to be granted the Crown Prince's Seal.

However, being granted the Crown Prince's Seal was a great undertaking that required enduring six heavenly lightning strikes and seven sacred fires. Since the Battle of Canghai, Ye Hua had been severely injured and hadn't recovered yet. Why was he in such a hurry now? Ye Hua's eyes were firm, and his words were stern.

He told Lian Song, "I originally thought that by pretending not to care and not taking it seriously, I could ensure Su Su gives birth to the child safely. But now I understand that no matter what I do, the Heavenly Monarch will take Su Su's life. Therefore, I must become the Crown Prince. I want to announce to the Four Seas and Eight Wildernesses that I will officially confer the title of concubine upon Su Su."

Su Jin came before Su Su and proudly showed off to Su Su that she was using her eyes quite well. Su Jin even told Su Su haughtily that on the day she received the eyes, Ye Hua had guarded by her bedside for an entire day and night. Every word from Su Jin was like the sharpest knife, gouging out Su Su's heart little by little. Su Su finally understood everything.

It turned out this was originally a tale of love and hate between the two of them, and she was merely a passerby, pulled into it in confusion. Bai Fengjiu secretly ran to Yi Lan Fang Hua to visit Su Su and happened to see Su Jin acting arrogant and domineering in front of Su Su. Bai Fengjiu couldn't stand it.

As Su Jin walked out of the gate of Yi Lan Fang Hua, she stepped forward and fiercely bit Su Jin. Enraged by the bite, Su Jin swung her arm and severely injured Bai Fengjiu. Su Jin saw that this fox had run out of Yi Lan Fang Hua and thought it was raised by Su Su. Immediately enraged, she ordered someone to beat the fox to death. Dong Hua arrived upon hearing the commotion.

He not only saved Bai Fengjiu but also severely punished Su Jin, making her kneel outside Yi Lan Fang Hua for one hour. As he left, Dong Hua advised Su Jin to stay far away from the people and foxes of his Tai Chen Palace from now on. Su Jin did not dare disobey the Emperor Lord's decree. Although she felt humiliated in her heart, she had to force herself to endure it.

Episode 24 Recap

The Heavenly Monarch came to Divine Monarch Dong Hua with a joyful expression to discuss matters. It turned out that the officials had submitted a memorial requesting the formal conferment of Ye Hua as Crown Prince. Dong Hua repeatedly congratulated the Heavenly Monarch, saying that the Crown Prince he had painstakingly nurtured had finally won the hearts of the Four Seas and Eight Wildernesses.

Dong Hua leisurely told the Heavenly Monarch that he could finally hand this heavy responsibility to Ye Hua and learn from himself, becoming a leisurely immortal. The Heavenly Monarch announced the decision to officially hold Ye Hua's Crown Prince investiture ceremony on the eighth day of next month. Everyone congratulated Ye Hua. If it had been before, Ye Hua wouldn't have had any emotional fluctuations about being conferred as Crown Prince.

But now, the identity of Crown Prince had a different meaning for Ye Hua than before. Only by becoming the Crown Prince could he truly protect Su Su and stay with her forever. Every time Ye Hua thought of this, although his face remained as indifferent as ever, there was always an irrepressible joy in his heart. Su Su was really bored staying in Yi Lan Fang Hua all day.

Nai Nai supported her as she took a walk by the lotus pond. Su Su smelled the fragrance of the lotus flowers, and the frustration of the past few days was somewhat soothed. Unexpectedly, a small palace maidservant came to tell Su Su that the Heavenly Monarch had specifically instructed that she was not allowed to leave Yi Lan Fang Hua. Su Su knew she had no status whatsoever in these Nine Heavens, and her heart was filled with sorrow.

Su Su had been particularly sleepy these past few days. Ye Hua came to visit Su Su and excitedly told her that he was about to be conferred as Crown Prince and that they could finally live the life they wanted. Su Su no longer wanted to believe Ye Hua's promises. She deliberately avoided him, using her sleepiness as an excuse to avoid his intimacy.

Ye Hua was not good with words and didn't know how to explain these things to Su Su. He felt that perhaps everything would get better after he became Crown Prince and conferred Su Su. Before leaving, Ye Hua privately instructed Nai Nai that when he was conferred as Crown Prince, he would undergo a great trial of heavenly lightning.

If Su Su heard the thunder then, she didn't need to be told the truth, as he was afraid she would worry. Li Yuan was imprisoned in the dungeon by Li Jing. Li Yuan hated Li Jing immensely. Li Jing, in the posture of a victor, told Li Yuan not to think that Qing Cang valued him as the eldest son that much. He was just a blood Gu raised by Qing Cang.

It turned out that whether it was Li Jing, Li Yuan, or Yan Zhi, no matter who died, Qing Cang's power would increase by one point. Li Yuan found it hard to believe. Yan Zhi came to find Li Jing. She was disheartened by the struggle between her eldest and second brothers. She requested Li Jing to leave the Wing Tribe realm and go to the mortal realm.

Li Jing tried to make her stay, but Yan Zhi's decision to leave was firm. Li Jing felt profoundly desolate in his heart. He only left Yan Zhi with one sentence: no matter where she went, she must be safe and sound. Yan Zhi looked at the back of her second brother; she felt reluctance in her heart but had to leave. Li Jing secretly sent people to protect Yan Zhi.

Although he and Yan Zhi were half-siblings, in Li Jing's heart, Yan Zhi was his own sister. In this Great Purple Palace, hypocrisy and ugliness were everywhere. Li Jing had seen the cold realities of human relationships since he was a child. Only this sister was his only relative in his heart. Yan Zhi's departure made Li Jing feel that there was no more kinship in this Great Purple Palace.

Finally, the day arrived when the Crown Prince was conferred the Crown Prince's Seal. Monarchs from the Four Seas and Eight Wildernesses came to offer their congratulations. Li Jing encountered Su Jin, who was going to deliver clothes to Le Xu.

Li Jing intended to inquire about Su Su's recent situation, but he was told by a maidservant beside Su Jin that Su Su had been severely punished by the Heavenly Monarch because she had caused Su Jin to lose her eyes. Li Jing couldn't help but feel uneasy for Su Su. Ye Hua was conferred the Crown Prince's Seal and had to endure a great trial of heavenly lightning. Each heavenly lightning strike seemed to tear his body apart.

Su Su heard the sound of heavenly thunder outside, and her heart was filled with fear. Nai Nai ran in in a panic. It turned out that Nai Nai had heard from an immortal maidservant in Xi Wu Palace that the Heavenly Monarch had already issued a decree to bestow Heavenly Consort Su Jin upon Ye Hua as a secondary consort after he was established as Crown Prince.

Su Jin and Su Su were already not getting along, so wouldn't this make things even more difficult for Su Su in the future? Su Su wasn't surprised at all after hearing this. Su Su muttered to herself, saying that anyway, she had nothing to do with Yi Lan Fang Hua anymore. Su Su suddenly felt unbearable pain in her abdomen; it seemed she was about to give birth. Nai Nai hurried to find Crown Prince Ye Hua.

Xuan Nv gave birth prematurely, delivering a sick child. Despair filled Li Jing's heart. He remembered telling Si Yin that in ancient times, there were people whose negative karma was so deep that they gave birth to sick children three times in a row. Now, he couldn't blame anyone else. Perhaps this was his own retribution. Ye Hua endured the great trial of heavenly lightning.

In front of the officials, he had been holding on, pretending everything was fine, until he reached a place with no one around, where he couldn't bear it anymore and knelt down, coughing up blood. Even so, Ye Hua still went daily to endure the three years of lightning punishment. When Nai Nai went to find Ye Hua, he was undergoing the lightning punishment.

Nai Nai was stopped outside Ye Hua's palace and had to kneel and beg the immortal maidservants to inform Ye Hua. Just then, Lian Song happened to pass by. Knowing that Su Su was about to give birth, Lian Song asked Nai Nai to quickly take him to Yi Lan Fang Hua first. Su Su finally gave birth to an imperial son. Ye Hua also rushed over and heard the child's first cry, weeping tears of joy.

Ye Hua carried the child to show Su Su. Su Su ignored Ye Hua. Su Su knew that she would not stay in the Nine Heavens. This child was the little highness, and the people of the Heavenly Palace would naturally not make things difficult for him. Su Su strongly suppressed her maternal instincts and did not get too close to the child.

Episode 25 Recap

Ye Hua heavily punished the immortal maidservants who had stopped Nai Nai in front of his palace yesterday. He wanted to make everyone aware of Su Su's status in Xi Wu Palace and make sure no one would dare to look down on Su Su again. Everyone in Xi Wu Palace was saying that Ye Hua was about to marry Su Su.

Nai Nai felt that her mistress's suffering had finally come to an end, and she was truly happy for Su Su. Ye Hua brought Su Su very beautiful fabrics, but Su Su was unmoved. She said with a touch of sadness that this was just Ye Hua pitying her. Su Su always asked Nai Nai to take her to the Zhu Xian Terrace.

Nai Nai worried that the malevolent energy of the Zhu Xian Terrace would harm Su Su, and she told her anxiously that the Zhu Xian Terrace was an inauspicious place. Su Su just told Nai Nai that she simply liked the fragrance of the flowers along the way. Su Su asked Nai Nai to let go of her. She told Nai Nai to follow her, and she walked towards the Zhu Xian Terrace, touching the railing along the way.

Su Su asked Nai Nai if the little highness had been given a name. Nai Nai said no. Su Su, as if she had something on her mind, said, "How about A Li?" When Nai Nai heard this name, she felt a faint uneasiness in her heart. Zhe Yan went to the Heavenly Palace to find Divine Monarch Dong Hua.

He wanted to inquire from him about what happened after Bai Qian sealed Qing Cang, to see if he could find any clues about Little Fifth's disappearance. However, Divine Monarch Dong Hua only speculated that Bai Qian was Si Yin from back then. As for the matter of sealing Qing Cang, he had no way of knowing.

Zhe Yan, entrusted by the Fox Emperor, wanted to ask Divine Monarch Dong Hua if Bai Fengjiu had repaid her debt of gratitude in the Heavenly Palace. It turned out Bai Fengjiu had left Green Hills for a long time, and Green Hills was very worried about how Bai Fengjiu was doing. Divine Monarch Dong Hua slowly said that he never needed her to repay any gratitude, and moreover, Bai Fengjiu was causing him some trouble here.

Bai Fengjiu, hiding outside the door, secretly heard Divine Monarch Dong Hua say that she was trouble here. Disheartened, she left very sadly. Zhi Yue had not liked Bai Fengjiu from the start, especially since Bai Fengjiu had stayed by Divine Monarch Dong Hua's side for so long. Filled with jealousy, Zhi Yue took advantage of Bai Fengjiu's distracted state and, without her noticing, actually knocked Bai Fengjiu unconscious and threw her into the Demon Locking Tower.

Zhe Yan was preparing to leave the Heavenly Palace and return to the Peach Blossom Forest. On his way back, he met Su Su, who was covered with a veil. Zhe Yan saw that half of Su Su's face looked remarkably like Little Fifth, and there was also a faint scent of peach blossoms, a scent that could only be found in the Ten Mile Peach Blossom Forest. Zhe Yan looked at Su Su thoughtfully.

Ye Hua thought Su Su had offended Zhe Yan, so he hurried forward to protect Su Su and apologize to Zhe Yan. Zhe Yan said thoughtfully that Su Su was very much like an old friend from his Ten Mile Peach Blossom Forest. He also told Su Su that if there was a chance, he would invite her to his Ten Mile Peach Blossom Forest.

Su Su didn't know why, but she always felt a natural sense of closeness to that Peach Blossom Forest. After Ye Hua took Su Su to bid farewell to Zhe Yan, they returned to Yi Lan Fang Hua. Su Su meekly explained that she only liked the fragrance of the flowers near the Zhu Xian Terrace, and if Ye Hua didn't like it, she wouldn't go anymore. Ye Hua's heart ached seeing Su Su's current state.

He held Su Su's hand and promised her, "In ten days, you will be the Crown Prince Consort. You can go anywhere you want without needing anyone's permission." When Su Su heard this, her emotions remained unchanged; she just changed the subject. Ye Hua was filled with heartache and guilt. Dong Hua discovered that Bai Fengjiu was missing. Only after forcing Zhi Yue to tell him did he learn that Bai Fengjiu had been thrown into the Demon Locking Tower.

Dong Hua immediately went to the Demon Locking Tower to rescue Bai Fengjiu. He hadn't expected that since Bai Fengjiu was originally a beast, using immortal magic inside the Demon Locking Tower would also harm her. For Bai Fengjiu's sake, Dong Hua could only fight the Demon King with his bare hands. He finally killed the Demon King, but Dong Hua also suffered serious injuries as a result.

Dong Hua carried the frightened and unconscious Bai Fengjiu back to Tai Chen Palace. Si Ming quickly summoned the Medicine King to treat Divine Monarch Dong Hua's injuries. Even the Medicine King was astonished, marveling that someone in this world could still heavily injure the Divine Monarch.

Dong Hua ignored Si Ming and the Medicine King; he just stared intently at Bai Fengjiu, who was still unconscious outside the screen, lost in thought, not regaining his composure for a long time. When Bai Fengjiu woke up, she quickly questioned Si Ming about Dong Hua's injuries. Si Ming comforted Bai Fengjiu, saying that the Divine Monarch was resting now.

Si Ming then told Bai Fengjiu with a solemn expression that the Divine Monarch was a god made of stone and had no emotions or desires. He advised Bai Fengjiu to leave early and return to Green Hills. Bai Fengjiu recalled what she had overheard Divine Monarch Dong Hua say and thought about the trouble she had caused him here. Filled with immense guilt, and despite her reluctance to leave, Bai Fengjiu still held back her tears and departed.

What she didn't see was the Divine Monarch's profound gaze behind her. Only after Bai Fengjiu returned to Green Hills did she learn that her aunt was missing. She remembered how Shao Xin's matter had made her aunt the laughingstock of the Four Seas and Eight Wildernesses. In a fit of anger, she ran to the North Sea to confront Shao Xin and seek justice for her aunt. Shao Xin knew she had wronged her aunt.

Hearing Bai Fengjiu's scolding, she did not retort. She even returned her aunt's Po Yun Fan to Bai Fengjiu. Seeing Shao Xin like this, no matter how great Bai Fengjiu's anger was, it all dissipated. Bai Fengjiu made Shao Xin swear that she must not tell anyone about the matters concerning Green Hills. Otherwise, even if she forgave her now, she would definitely come back to seek justice from her in the future.

Su Jin arrived outside the gates of Xi Wu Palace with her people but was stopped. Immediately displeased, she could only leave. Su Su took advantage of Nai Nai taking A Li to see Le Xu. She went to the Zhu Xian Terrace by herself, following her memory. Su Su stumbled and staggered all the way to the Zhu Xian Terrace. Her mind was filled with memories of being with Ye Hua.

But no matter how wonderful things were in the past, that was how much despair she felt now. Ye Hua was talking in Le Xu's palace when A Li suddenly started crying non-stop. For some reason, Ye Hua had an ominous premonition. He went straight to Xi Wu Palace but found no sign of Su Su anywhere in the palace. At this moment, Su Su's voice came from the bronze mirror.

Episode 26 Recap

Su Su's voice came from the bronze mirror, making Ye Hua feel uneasy. Su Su slowly said that she was leaving the Nine Heavens. She requested Ye Hua to take good care of A Li. Suppressing her reluctance, Su Su told Ye Hua that she had once fantasized about taking A Li to see the colorful clouds and mist in the Nine Heavens, but now it seemed impossible.

She hoped Ye Hua would not tell A Li that his mother was a mortal looked down upon by others. After saying this, Su Su had no more ties. She only had one sentence left for Ye Hua: let her go, and she would let him go, so that from then on, they would owe each other nothing. Ye Hua's heart felt as if it were being cut by a knife.

He knew Su Su was at the Zhu Xian Terrace and rushed towards it with all his might, only wishing to be faster, even faster. After Su Su finished speaking, she dropped the bronze mirror, having no further attachment to the Nine Heavens. She took a leap and jumped into the Zhu Xian Terrace. Ye Hua was ultimately a step too late. Seeing Su Su jump into the Zhu Xian Terrace, Ye Hua followed without the slightest hesitation.

But Su Su didn't know that if an immortal jumped into the Zhu Xian Terrace, it would destroy their entire life's cultivation, while if a mortal jumped in, they would turn to dust and vanish. It was precisely the Zhu Xian Terrace that broke Su Su's seal. Finally, her past became vividly clear. She was Su Su, no, she was Bai Qian.

After Qing Cang sensed that his seal was broken, his demonic nature surged, and he attempted to break through the Donghuang Bell. Dong Hua sensed Qing Cang's movements and also understood that this was greatly related to Bai Qian, who had sealed Qing Cang. However, for the moment, he didn't know what had happened. Heavenly Monarch and others exhausted their immortal power to rescue Ye Hua from the Zhu Xian Terrace, but Ye Hua was severely injured and unconscious.

Heavenly Monarch disregarded his own safety to save Ye Hua but was knocked unconscious by Lian Song. Lian Song and Ye Hua's father went to the East Sea to search for the Divine Awareness Herb. Before leaving, he specifically instructed that no one except the Medicine King was allowed to approach this place. Zhe Yan always felt that Su Su was connected to Little Fifth. He went to the Heavenly Palace again to find out more.

It so happened that he encountered Ye Hua who was severely injured. Zhe Yan was the most skilled immortal healer in the Four Seas and Eight Wildernesses. The guards risked being punished by Lian Song and let Zhe Yan in. Zhe Yan sent the others out and used his magic to save Ye Hua.

Although he didn't know why there was Mo Yuan's aura within Ye Hua's body, just based on Ye Hua having the same face, he would not allow Ye Hua to die. If Ye Hua was indeed Mo Yuan, then Kunlun Void had waited for him for seventy thousand years. When the First Highness and the Third Highness returned, they were seriously injured but still had not retrieved the Divine Awareness Herb.

Le Xu quickly told them that Zhe Yan had already been inside the room for the entire night. Zhe Yan opened the door at this moment and told everyone that Ye Hua was no longer in critical danger, but whether he would wake up depended on his own luck. It would be best to have someone close to the Crown Prince stay by his side day and night.

Le Xu knew she should find Su Su at this time, but Su Su had already jumped into the Zhu Xian Terrace and her soul had scattered. Zhe Yan returned to the Peach Blossom Forest from the Heavenly Palace but sensed Little Fifth's aura. Following the aura, he found Little Fifth lying on the ground covered in injuries. Zhe Yan quickly used his magic to wake her up.

As soon as Bai Qian woke up, she asked Zhe Yan for the Forgetful Elixir. Zhe Yan asked her with concern where she had been during these days. Bai Qian said dejectedly that she hadn't gained any advantage in the battle with Qing Cang. Her memory and magic were sealed, and she was thrown onto a deserted mountain, experiencing a tribulation.

Bai Qian knew Zhe Yan possessed a medicine that could make people forget some things, and she requested it from him. Zhe Yan could see that Bai Qian had been deeply hurt during this time. He didn't ask for details and just told her to think it over carefully. Ye Hua still hadn't woken up. Heavenly Monarch and the others were extremely anxious. Upon hearing the news, Dong Hua came to the Heavenly Palace.

He told Heavenly Monarch that the Su Jin tribe had a celestial lamp called the Soul Gathering Lamp, which could gather the souls of divine beings. However, this lamp was in the Boundless Sea, among the burial items of Su Jin's mother. When Su Jin learned of this matter, she personally went to the Boundless Sea to retrieve the celestial lamp. However, she had one request: she wanted to marry Ye Hua. Heavenly Monarch agreed.

As long as this lamp could save Ye Hua, he would grant her marriage to Ye Hua. After obtaining the celestial lamp, Dong Hua instructed that the lamp be hung by Ye Hua's bedside for three days. The wick must not extinguish. After three days and three nights, Ye Hua would be able to wake up. Bai Qian still went to Zhe Yan to get the medicine. Everything she had experienced was merely a disastrous fate.

After drinking this medicine, the fate would begin and end, and there would be no more Su Su from the Junji Mountain of the East Wilderness. In his sleep, Ye Hua saw Su Su sitting by the wedding bed they had shared. Without any lingering attachment, she told Ye Hua that from then on, there would be no Su Su in the world. Ye Hua's heart ached, and he slightly opened his eyes but quickly fell unconscious again.

Heavenly Monarch asked his son if he had been too strict with Ye Hua. From the time Ye Hua could walk, he was taken to the study. Because he cried in front of his mother, he was forcibly separated from her for twenty thousand years. Bai Qian had always valued emotions the most. Bai Zhi and others hadn't expected that Bai Qian's ascension to High Goddess this time would turn out to be another love tribulation.

If she hadn't truly been unable to bear it, how could Bai Qian have asked Zhe Yan for the Forgetful Medicine? Zhe Yan discussed with everyone and decided to simply conceal everything and not tell Bai Qian. They would pretend that after the great battle between Bai Qian and Qing Cang, she had merely slept for a while. As for her eyes, they would say it was a congenital condition that only manifested after she was injured.

Everyone nodded in agreement. Zhe Yan also requested Bai Zhi to go to the Underworld to retrieve a piece of white silk that could block light for Su Su. While everyone was gathered around Bai Qian, Bai Zhen secretly asked Zhe Yan how he had met his parents. Zhe Yan said that he had fallen for his mother. Unfortunately, she fell for Bai Zhi, who didn't understand romance.

Zhe Yan and Bai Zhi fought for three days and three nights, discovered they had similar interests, and became brothers. So, Zhe Yan simply let Bai Zhi take the beauty home. Bai Zhen said that his mother would never have liked Zhe Yan, this old phoenix. Zhe Yan became furious and mocked Bai Zhen by mentioning the time when Bai Zhen was little and asked him for a kiss. After Ye Hua woke up, he didn't say a word, and his entire being was filled with despair.

Episode 27 Recap

Dong Hua ordered Lian Song to place the Soul Gathering Lamp by Ye Hua's bedside. It must not be extinguished for three days and three nights, then Ye Hua would be able to wake up. Bai Qian recalled the vows she had made when marrying Ye Hua, but sadly, it was ultimately a disastrous fate. Bai Qian drank Zhe Yan's Forgetful Elixir, and from then on, there was no more Su Su in the world.

Heavenly Monarch looked at Ye Hua's current tribulation and couldn't help but reflect on whether he had been too strict with Ye Hua over the tens of thousands of years. Lian Song spoke frankly to Heavenly Monarch, saying that in his eyes, Ye Hua was just a pitiful child. Regardless of whether he ascended to the heavens at twenty thousand years old or achieved great merits, he had always grown up alone and hadn't even experienced love.

Just when he finally met Su Su, the one he loved in his heart, it turned out to be such a great calamity. Bai Qian drank the Forgetful Elixir and slept for a long time. Fox Emperor, Fox Queen, and Zhe Yan were all gathered around Bai Qian. Everyone felt pained by Bai Qian's love tribulation this time. Since Bai Qian decided to forget, Zhe Yan instructed everyone not to mention this matter again after Bai Qian woke up.

They should just say that Bai Qian was injured after the great battle with Qing Cang. As for her eyes, they would say it was a congenital condition that only manifested after she was injured. Zhe Yan asked Fox Emperor to go to the Underworld to retrieve a piece of white silk using Xuan Guang for Bai Qian. Ye Hua finally woke up, but he looked completely disheartened. Le Xu took the Forgetful Pill from the Medicine King.

She tearfully begged Ye Hua to forget the past and live well, but Ye Hua's only response was a faint remark, "Your son does not want to forget her." Bai Qian woke up. Bai Zhen explained her injuries and eye condition to Bai Qian as Zhe Yan had instructed. Bai Qian simply believed that she had merely slept for several years. Bai Qian recalled that she had slept for several years.

Without her heart's blood to nourish him, her master's immortal body would be damaged. What could be done? But when Bai Qian rushed to the cave, she found Mo Yuan's immortal body intact. She was wondering what was going on when Zhe Yan told Bai Qian that Mo Yuan might be waking up. It had been seventy thousand years. She had kept the words her master left behind – "wait for him to return" – day and night.

This was a master closer to her than even Father God. Now, hearing Zhe Yan say that Mo Yuan was about to wake up, Bai Qian couldn't believe it was true. After Bai Fengjiu returned from the Heavenly Palace, she had been drowning her sorrows in alcohol, staying in a daze. Bai Qian comforted Bai Fengjiu and listened as she recounted everything that had happened between her and the Dong Hua during these past years.

Bai Fengjiu nestled in Bai Qian's embrace and plaintively asked Bai Qian why she had fallen for the Dong Hua. Bai Qian sighed, "Out of everyone you could like, why did you have to fall for Dong Hua? He is a deity much older than your father." Bai Fengjiu asked Bai Qian curiously, "Aunt, have you ever liked anyone?" Bai Qian thought of her past with Li Jing on Kunlun Void and couldn't help but laugh at herself.

The first thing Ye Hua did upon waking was to summon Si Ming and Lian Song, wanting to investigate the matters of Si Yin and Mo Yuan. Lian Song questioned why he was in such a hurry to investigate this right after waking up. It turned out Ye Hua wanted to find Si Yin and ask about methods to revive Mo Yuan, wondering if the same methods could also revive Su Su.

Si Ming thought for a moment and told Ye Hua that perhaps one person could answer the question of Si Yin's whereabouts, and that person was Bai Fengjiu. Ye Hua rushed to Green Hills to see Bai Fengjiu. Mi Gu went in to report the matter. Bai Qian heard Ye Hua's name and was puzzled, stating directly that she had already broken off her engagement with his second uncle, Sang Ji, so what was he here for?

Bai Fengjiu had never had a good impression of Ye Hua because of the matter involving Su Su, so she quickly told Bai Qian that this person was cruel and faithless, and she absolutely must not marry him, Aunt. Bai Qian was confused by these words; when had she ever intended to marry Crown Prince Ye Hua?

Mi Gu explained to Bai Qian, one by one, the marriage arrangement made by Fox Emperor and High God Zhe Yan for Bai Qian and Ye Hua. Bai Qian was truly annoyed with her parents, wondering what kind of marriage they had arranged for her. Bai Fengjiu told Ye Hua that she did not know where Si Yin was. Ye Hua returned disappointed. Su Jin finally got her wish and was to marry into Xi Wu Palace.

Ye Hua ordered someone to tell Su Jin to arrive by palanquin herself. Su Jin was full of joy and arrived at Xi Wu Palace adorned in a phoenix coronet and embroidered robes. Ye Hua stood with his hands behind his back, facing away from Su Jin. Seeing Ye Hua's back, Su Jin remembered the scene from her childhood when she often accompanied Ye Hua while he studied. Even then, Ye Hua had such a cold personality.

Su Jin walked towards Ye Hua step by step, her heart filled with deep affection for him. Just as she softly uttered "Husband," unexpectedly, Ye Hua turned around and thrust a sword directly into Su Jin's chest. Su Jin clutched her wound, her eyes full of fear and confusion, but Ye Hua didn't even spare her another glance. He turned and left, leaving her only with his cold back and the closed palace doors.

Ye Hua was staring blankly at the Yu Qing Kunlun Fan when he saw the fan suddenly disappear. Ye Hua realized with a start that Si Yin might have appeared, and the fan had been recalled by its owner. It turned out that Bai Qian had returned to Kunlun Void and was lamenting the desolate scene when she suddenly found her magic artifact missing, so she used immortal magic to recall the Yu Qing Kunlun Fan.

Ye Hua tracked the fan and arrived at Kunlun Void. Due to a twist of fate, although they were in the same place, they did not meet. Heavenly Monarch was waiting for Ye Hua in the Heavenly Palace.

When Ye Hua returned, Heavenly Monarch spoke earnestly to Ye Hua, saying that on that day, Su Jin had presented the Soul Gathering Lamp, and he had also issued a heavenly decree in front of everyone, granting Su Jin the status of Ye Hua's secondary consort. Now that the heavenly decree had been issued, no matter how Ye Hua felt, this was an unchangeable fact.

Ye Hua was expressionless as he reported to Heavenly Monarch, "Since an explanation must be given to the Four Seas and Eight Wildernesses, I shall accept it. However, apart from my sleeping quarters and Yi Lan Fang Hua, it does not concern me where Su Jin resides." Heavenly Monarch looked at the indifferent Ye Hua, feeling helpless. Ye Hua returned to his sleeping quarters and encountered Xin Nu, a fairy maid beside Su Jin. Xin Nu knelt behind Ye Hua, claiming that their mistress had a way to bring Su Jin back to life. Upon hearing these words, Ye Hua froze in place.

Episode 28 Recap

Night Hua came to Su jin. Su jin tearfully complained to Night Hua. For the past seventy thousand years, she had always had smooth sailing. Only the thought of marrying Night Hua had constantly driven her into desperation. The method to revive Su Su was the Soul Gathering Lamp.

As long as one item belonging to the mortal person is burned in the Soul Gathering Lamp, the lamp can gather the person's scattered souls within a hundred li radius and create a similar being. Her only condition was to reside in Xi Wu Palace. Su jin humbly pleaded with Night Hua, saying she only wanted to stay by his side day and night. Night Hua returned and burned Su Su's wedding attire.

Unexpectedly, a strong wind suddenly rose in the Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms, and peach blossoms were swept up by the wind and blown into Night Hua's sleeping quarters. Night Hua opened the door and saw peach blossoms falling everywhere. Thinking of "beautiful peach blossoms, but no more Su Su," Night Hua felt heartbroken. Night Hua planted peach trees all over Yi Lan Fang Hua.

Year-round, Night Hua would carry little Ah Li to reside in Mount Jun Ji for several months. In the blink of an eye, three hundred years passed in an instant. When Bai Qian's birthday arrived, Fengjiu kept thinking about what to give her aunt as a birthday gift. She awkwardly asked Mi Gu if her aunt had anything she wanted. Mi Gu pointed out to Fengjiu that her aunt truly had one unfulfilled wish: High God Mo Yuan.

It was said that three hundred years ago, Su jin brought the Soul Gathering Lamp to save Night Hua. Since this Soul Gathering Lamp saved Crown Prince Night Hua, perhaps it could also awaken High God Mo Yuan. Fengjiu thought Mi Gu's suggestion was quite reliable, so she went to the Heavenly Palace. Transforming into Su jin's appearance, she sneaked into Night Hua's sleeping quarters and secretly took the Soul Gathering Lamp.

After the Star Official discovered this, he rushed to Mount Jun Ji to report the matter to Night Hua. Night Hua thought Su jin had taken the Soul Gathering Lamp. He angrily rushed into Su jin's sleeping quarters, questioning her about the whereabouts of the Soul Gathering Lamp. Su jin truly did not understand where Night Hua's anger came from. Night Hua warned Su jin that she better not have lied to him, then turned and left.

Night Hua was furious and wanted to interrogate everyone in the Heavenly Palace one by one. Lian Song knew about this matter and sighed in amazement, "That is Night Hua's life!" When Lian Song rushed to Xi Wu Palace, he found Night Hua slumped on the ground as if he had lost his soul, his eyes filled with despair.

Night Hua told Lian Song mournfully that Su Su had not yet forgiven him, and wouldn't even let him create a duplicate of her. Bai Qian discovered that Fengjiu had stolen the Soul Gathering Lamp. Bai Qian told Fengjiu disappointedly that she had heard of this lamp before. However, to use it, one needed to find a part of the primordial spirit to gather the other parts.

Although Mo Yuan's immortal body was here now, his primordial spirit was nowhere to be found. Therefore, this lamp was useless for Mo Yuan. Fengjiu went to the Heavenly Palace and found Si Ming, wanting to secretly return the Soul Gathering Lamp. Si Ming knew the whole story and repeatedly exclaimed, "Oh dear, oh dear!"

"This Soul Gathering Lamp was kept lit for three hundred years because Night Hua wanted to recreate the flesh and blood of Empress Su Su from that time." "Now, the young highness has not only stolen the Soul Gathering Lamp but also extinguished it. What is to be done?" Since Emperor Dong Hua was still in seclusion, Si Ming and Fengjiu had no choice but to ask Lian Song for help.

Lian Song advised Night Hua not to fuss over Green Hills. Night Hua refused. Si Ming had to bring up Emperor Dong Hua. He told Night Hua that Dong Hua would be descending to the mortal realm for a trial soon. To repay Fengjiu's debt of love, Lian Song and Si Ming used Green Hills and Emperor Dong Hua to persuade Night Hua not to dwell on this matter with Fengjiu any longer. Night Hua was mentally and physically exhausted.

Everything that carried Su Su's aura that day had already been burned for the Soul Gathering Lamp. Night Hua even wanted to use his own soul to ignite the Soul Gathering Lamp. Seeing this, Lian Song quickly stepped forward to stop Night Hua. He angrily scolded Night Hua, "Have you forgotten that you are the Crown Prince of the divine Tribes?" "Have you forgotten that you and Su Su have a child?"

"If you die, Ah Li will truly be a child without a father or a mother." Hearing Ah Li's name, Night Hua came back to his senses. Lian Song sighed and comforted Night Hua, "Forget it. It's been three hundred years." Night Hua had been relying on that Soul Gathering Lamp to console and numb himself, always thinking that as long as the lamp was lit, it was as if Su Su would still come back.

Now that the lamp was extinguished, Night Hua felt as though he had woken from a dream and had to face the fact that Su Su was gone. Night Hua's heart was in agony. On Mount Jun Ji, Ah Li secretly avoided the guards and ran into the bamboo forest but got lost. Seeing little rabbits, the playful Ah Li did not even notice a snake demon following him. The snake demon was about to eat Ah Li.

Fortunately, a fairy happened to pass by and lent a helping hand, saving Ah Li. The fairy sister sent Ah Li back to the thatched cottage, where they saw Night Hua frantically searching for Ah Li.

Episode 29 Recap

It turned out the person who saved Ah Li was Princess Miao Qing, the sister of the Divine Monarch of the East Sea. Princess Miao Qing was informed that the person before her was Night Hua, the Crown Prince of the divine Tribes. Her heart rejoiced. It turned out that Princess Miao Qing had long heard of Night Hua's great reputation and had admired him for a long time. Seeing the person she loved now, she was naturally overjoyed.

To thank Princess Miao Qing for saving Ah Li, Night Hua granted her a wish. Princess Miao Qing shyly said that she wanted nothing, only to stay in the thatched cottage and, when Night Hua brought Ah Li to live there, she could wash clothes and cook for them. Night Hua finally couldn't refuse Miao Qing's request, especially seeing that she had risked herself to save Ah Li.

He truly couldn't refuse Miao Qing, so he allowed her to stay in the thatched cottage for ten days. Ah Li, however, was very unhappy. Although he didn't understand adult matters, he could sense that this sister liked his father. Now, his father had even kept her in his mother's thatched cottage. Ah Li was afraid this person would steal his mother's position. Ah Li cried and made a fuss with Night Hua.

Night Hua hardened his heart and told Ah Li that the Soul Gathering Lamp was extinguished, and his mother would not come back. Ah Li cried out that he didn't believe it and ran out, leaving Night Hua to grieve in silence. Bai Fengjiu returned the Soul Gathering Lamp and excitedly went to find Bai Qian.

Bai Qian slowly told Bai Fengjiu that the Divine Monarch of the East Sea had a son and had sent her an invitation, and she was going to attend the banquet. Bai Fengjiu was very puzzled, as her aunt had never bothered with such matters before. How was this Divine Monarch of the East Sea so fortunate today to invite her aunt? Bai Qian told Bai Fengjiu the reason behind it.

It turned out that when Bai Qian's mother gave birth to her, she had a difficult labor. Fortunately, she received assistance from a midwife from the Divine Monarch of the East Sea, which reduced her mother's suffering. So, now it could be considered that she was returning the great favor owed to the East Sea.

All the divine Tribes in the Heavenly Palace were discussing how the North Sea Divine Monarch, because of his son's birth, not only took leave from court for many days but also sent out invitations throughout the four seas and eight realms, which was truly too ostentatious. As a result, someone said, "This is nothing. Unexpectedly, Aunt Bai Qian of Green Hills actually accepted the invitation for this banquet.

This truly gave the North Sea Divine Monarch a lot of face." Bai Qian had never revealed her true form before the divine Tribes, so the divine Tribes all thought that this Green Hills Empress had never left Green Hills and were full of curiosity and anticipation regarding Bai Qian. Si Ming came to find Bai Fengjiu to take her to see Emperor Dong Hua to repay a debt of gratitude.

Bai Fengjiu was worried that her aunt would not let her leave if she knew, so she specifically asked Mi Gu to wait a few days after she left before telling her aunt about this. Bai Qian asked Mi Gu for a tree sprout to prevent herself from getting lost in the East Sea. Mi Gu had been unhappy since Bai Fengjiu left, secretly muttering about how there was no end in sight for the young highness's debt repayment.

Si Ming took Bai Fengjiu to a palace in the mortal realm. He told Bai Fengjiu that the Emperor would undergo a trial in the mortal realm for sixty years, and the one sitting on the throne in the grand hall was precisely the Emperor's mortal incarnation. Si Ming led Bai Fengjiu to the imperial harem. He told Bai Fengjiu that there was a Consort Chen in the harem who would perish from drowning today.

Bai Fengjiu could use this opportunity to become Consort Chen, continue her fate, and stay by Dong Hua's side as Consort Chen to fulfill her wish of repaying the debt of gratitude. When it was late at night, Si Ming came to visit Bai Fengjiu. After Bai Fengjiu became Consort Chen, everything else was fine, but she didn't know what to do about the phoenix tail flower on her forehead.

Si Ming was worried that this suddenly appearing birthmark would attract criticism. During the day, Bai Fengjiu was gloomily thinking in the imperial garden about how to get closer to this Emperor, the mortal incarnation of Dong Hua. Just then, she was seen by the Empress and others. The Empress was naturally jealous.

She used the phoenix tail flower birthmark on Bai Fengjiu's forehead to make things difficult for her and ordered someone to remove Bai Fengjiu's name tag for imperial favors from the Emperor. Bai Fengjiu thought to herself, since she couldn't have imperial favors, encountering him by chance should be possible, just like the love stories between emperors and ordinary women she read in books from her Fourth Uncle.

Bai Fengjiu specifically dressed up as a palace maid and waited at the entrance that the Emperor was bound to pass after court. However, the Emperor didn't even look at Bai Fengjiu. Bai Fengjiu was also accidentally discovered by the Empress, reprimanded, and confined to her palace. Bai Fengjiu was depressed, truly not knowing how to repay the debt of gratitude. Shao Xin had morning sickness and kept wanting to eat peaches.

However, in the current season, one could only smell the scent of peach blossoms, not see any peach fruits. Looking throughout the four seas and eight realms, only Zhe Yan had peaches. Sang Ji had no choice but to brave a visit to Zhe Yan to ask for a few peaches. Three hundred years had passed.

Shao Xin had always felt that she had wronged her aunt regarding the events of that year and always hoped to gain her aunt's forgiveness to feel at ease. So, for the past three hundred years, Shao Xin had come to the Green Hills fox den more than a dozen times each year to request an audience with her aunt. Each time, Mi Gu coldly turned her away.

Shao Xin was not resigned and planned to come to Green Hills again after attending the banquet in the East Sea. Bai Qian came to Zhe Yan's place. Zhe Yan told Bai Qian with a hint of smugness that he had given Sang Ji and them a few peaches that prevent conception. Bai Qian was surprised.

Zhe Yan nonchalantly said that it would only temporarily prevent the North Sea Divine Monarch and them from having a fifth child for a few hundred years, it wouldn't be a big deal. Bai Qian slightly blamed Zhe Yan and the Fox Emperor, for having arranged her engagement with Night Hua, who should be calling her great-aunt, while she was asleep for these three hundred years. Now it was becoming increasingly awkward.

Zhe Yan knew that he was in the wrong for not having discussed this matter with Bai Qian beforehand, so he didn't argue with Bai Qian about it. Bai Qian dug out the two jars of Peach Blossom Wine that Zhe Yan had prepared for Bai Zhen, lay comfortably on a peach tree, and drank the wine. Night Hua brought Ah Li to the East Sea.

Ah Li earnestly told Night Hua that he had a feeling in his heart that his mother would definitely come back. Night Hua couldn't bear to shatter Ah Li's expectations for his mother again. In fact, wasn't he himself living in the beautiful dream that Su Su would still come back? The East Sea was near the Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms. It was late, and Night Hua went to the Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms alone.

Su Su loved the Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms dearly, and now that the peach blossoms were in full bloom, Su Su, did you miss this place? The Divine Monarch of the East Sea knew that his sister was in love with Night Hua. He offered Miao Qing an idea: she should perform a dance and song at the banquet later, and then she herself should ask Night Hua for a meeting.

The Divine Monarch of the East Sea instructed Miao Qing that at that time, she should tearfully complain to Night Hua that her brother was forcing her to marry the second prince of the West Sea, and that prince was a dissolute fellow. This way, perhaps she could stay by Night Hua's side. Bai Qian was slightly drunk. She didn't know what was wrong with the wine today, it made her feel like teasing someone. Just as she was thinking, Bai Qian saw a handsome young man in black robes enter the peach forest. For some reason, Bai Qian suddenly felt like teasing him.

Episode 30 Recap

Bai Qian deliberately fell from the peach tree. Hearing the sound, Ye Hua swiftly flew forward to catch her. As their eyes met, Ye Hua's heart seemed to stop, his gaze and mind entirely consumed by the face identical to Su Su's. Bai Qian, emboldened by the wine, tried to get closer to Ye Hua, but a lingering shred of sobriety made her pull away in time.

By the time Ye Hua regained his senses, the person in his arms had already vanished without a trace. Ye Hua ran frantically through the peach forest, calling Su Su's name, unable to distinguish whether it was his hallucination or reality. When Bai Qian woke up at Zhe Yan's place the next day, she assumed everything from the previous night had been nothing more than a spring dream.

She couldn't help but laugh at herself for shamelessly flirting with a young man in her dream, feeling ashamed of her High Goddess status. Bai Qian bid farewell to Zhe Yan and leisurely made her way to the East Sea to attend the banquet. On the East Sea shore, Bai Qian encountered Princess Lü Xiu. Without revealing her identity, Bai Qian was mistaken by the princess for some minor fairy.

Princess Lü Xiu then demanded Bai Qian guide her to the East Sea Crystal Palace. Bai Qian unintentionally overheard Lü Xiu's maids gossiping about her, even calling her an "old hag." This infuriated her, but given that she hadn't left Green Hills for millennia and outsiders had never seen her, such wild speculations were inevitable. Upon arriving at the East Sea Palace, there was still some time before the banquet began.

Bai Qian, mingling among the gathered immortals, found it utterly dull and wanted to find a secluded spot to rest. After searching in vain, she was about to return to the main hall when she accidentally lost her tree sprout. With no other choice, Bai Qian decided to wander aimlessly. After walking a few dozen steps, she nearly bumped into a little boy who radiated an extraordinary aura. Bai Qian assumed he must be the son of some deity.

Watching the child struggle to pull weeds, she handed him her Po Yun Fan, saying, "Use this—it'll make it easier." Little did Bai Qian know, this chubby little boy was none other than the Heavenly Monarch's grandson, Ye Hua's son, Ah Li. As a celestial being, the Po Yun Fan in Ah Li's hands wielded considerable power. With a light wave, Ah Li blew away all the seaweed clinging to the coral, stirring up a fierce wind.

In no time, the dimly lit Crystal Palace was illuminated to a blinding brightness. Bai Qian's eyes couldn't tolerate the intense light, but fortunately, the white silk ribbon the Fox Emperor had made for her to block light appeared in time to shield her eyes. Startled by his own actions, Ah Li turned to Bai Qian for help, only to freeze upon seeing her—she looked exactly like the mother in his father's paintings.

Ah Li clung to Bai Qian, crying out heartbreakingly, "Mother! Mother! Why did you abandon Father and me?" Bai Qian was utterly baffled by his outburst. Hearing Ah Li's cries, Ye Hua rushed over and saw Bai Qian with the white silk over her eyes—an exact replica of Su Su. Stunned, he called out "Su Su" repeatedly, overcome with emotion.

As he reached out to touch the wife he had longed for over three hundred years, Bai Qian concealed the ribbon and sternly rebuked Ye Hua for his impropriety. Coming to his senses, Ye Hua realized that Su Su would never have spoken so harshly. This person before him was not Su Su after all. Heartbroken, Ye Hua reluctantly took the reluctant Ah Li and left.

Finally free of Ye Hua and his son, Bai Qian was about to catch her breath when she turned and ran straight into Shao Xin, who had hurried over to find her. Centuries had passed, and though Bai Qian held no fondness for Sang Ji, Shao Xin had made her the laughingstock of the realms. Worse, because of them, she was now betrothed to Ye Hua, who should technically address her as his ancestor.

The mere thought of it filled her with rage. Bai Qian even considered lightly waving her Po Yun Fan to send Shao Xin back to the North Sea, but seeing her heavily pregnant belly, she couldn't bring herself to do it. Shao Xin knelt before Bai Qian, explaining that she had sensed the power of the Po Yun Fan and guessed her aunt might be present.

Tears welled up in her eyes, making it impossible for Bai Qian to truly dislike her. Shao Xin pleaded pitifully, "Auntie, you’ve never met Sang Ji and once said you wouldn’t like him. Breaking off the engagement left you with better options—isn’t Crown Prince Ye Hua thousands of times better than Sang Ji? Marrying Sang Ji wouldn’t have made you happy. I always believed you were the most magnanimous goddess in the world. Without Sang Ji, I have nothing."

As Bai Qian listened, she absentmindedly tapped the table with her middle and ring fingers and occasionally sniffed the Po Yun Fan. These unconscious habits were all observed by Ye Hua from a distance. The scar on Bai Qian’s right hand when she lifted the fan deeply moved him—every gesture of this woman before him was unmistakably Su Su. If these small actions could be coincidental, how could the identical scar on her arm be a mere accident?

Hearing Bai Qian and Shao Xin’s conversation, Ye Hua finally realized that the woman before him was none other than his betrothed, Bai Qian of Green Hills. More importantly, he was now certain she was Su Su, though the tangled history between them left him momentarily unable to sort out the details. But whether Bai Qian was deliberately pretending not to recognize him or had truly forgotten him, none of it mattered to Ye Hua.

What mattered was that Su Su was alive—no, not Su Su, but Bai Qian, his betrothed, the woman he had longed for day and night, was none other than his beloved wife. Ye Hua affectionately called out "Qian Qian," startling Bai Qian. Though she knew of her engagement to Crown Prince Ye Hua, such intimacy at their first meeting was overwhelming. Bai Qian ultimately gifted the Po Yun Fan to Shao Xin.

After all, they had once been mistress and servant. She told Shao Xin to make a wish and come to Green Hills when she figured out what she wanted—with the fan, Mi Gu and the others wouldn’t stop her. Ignoring the onlookers, Ye Hua took Bai Qian’s hand and led her to the banquet.

Ah Li clung to Bai Qian’s side, unwilling to leave for even a moment, calling her "Mother" so persistently that Bai Qian almost wondered if she had truly abandoned her husband and child three hundred years ago. Princess Miao Qing, following her elder brother’s advice, dressed elaborately and performed a dance to capture Ye Hua’s attention. But how could she know that Ye Hua’s eyes and heart were now entirely fixed on Bai Qian, leaving no room for anyone else?

After the performance, the East Sea Divine Monarch begged Ye Hua to meet his sister Miao Qing. Unable to refuse, Ye Hua instructed Bai Qian to take care of Ah Li while he stepped away briefly. Bai Qian thought, "Is he really planning to take me back to the Heavenly Palace?" She decided she had to find Ye Hua quickly, return Ah Li, and slip back to Green Hills.

Sensing her intention to leave, Ah Li burst into tears, pitifully pleading, "My father is taking a stepmother, my mother is marrying a stepfather—I’ll truly become an unwanted child!" Bai Qian, maternal by nature, couldn’t bear to see the little boy so distressed. She quickly comforted him, saying, "Your father is my darling, my sweetheart, my honey. Since you call me Mother, how could I ever leave you?" Only then did Ah Li stop crying.

Ah Li took Bai Qian to find Ye Hua, just in time to see Princess Miao Qing tearfully pouring her heart out to him. Ye Hua’s impatience was evident, but the moment he spotted Bai Qian, he walked toward her. Quick-witted, Ah Li repeated Bai Qian’s earlier sweet words to Ye Hua. With a faint smile, Ye Hua stepped forward, blocking Bai Qian’s path, and asked softly if she truly meant it.

Bai Qian assumed he was using her to ward off the princess’s advances and inwardly lamented her misfortune, forcing a stiff smile. Playing along for appearances, she made it seem like a lovers’ quarrel before making her escape. Ah Li tried to chase after her, but Ye Hua stopped him, saying smugly that he knew where to find his mother.

Episode 31 Recap

Night Hua specifically came to the Peach Blossom Forest to find Zhe Yan. He wanted to ask Zhe Yan about Bai Qian's eye condition and what happened during the three hundred years she was asleep. If Bai Qian really was Su Su, why did she not remember him?

Although Zhe Yan guessed that perhaps Night Hua was the person Bai Qian wanted to forget from her trial by love, he did not tell Night Hua that Bai Qian had undergone a trial by love. Zhe Yan changed the subject and asked Night Hua why he had always worn dark clothes since he was a child.

Night Hua smiled and told Zhe Yan that if he were injured and covered in blood one day, his enemies would not feel joy seeing the blood, and those around him would not feel sad seeing his injuries. Hearing this, Zhe Yan felt a bit pained. Everyone thought Crown Prince Night Hua enjoyed supreme glory, but they did not know the bitterness behind it. Bai Qian lost the branch Mi Gu gave her. The night was dark again.

She thought she couldn't go back to the East Sea. What if she bumped into Night Hua and his son again? She would really have to become a stepmother. Carelessly, Bai Qian fell into a cave. When her feet landed, she found a couple being intimate inside the cave. Bai Qian was startled. Had she ruined their good deed?

Just as she was about to sneak away, the person on the bed saw Bai Qian and excitedly got up and came forward. Bai Qian looked closely and saw it was none other than the current Winged Monarch, Li Jing. Seeing Bai Qian, Li Jing's eyes were full of deep affection. He called out affectionately, "A'Yin." Bai Qian said sternly, "You and I have long since severed all ties. The name A'Yin is truly inappropriate. Now, look clearly.

I am Bai Qian of Green Hills. According to propriety, the Winged Monarch should change his address and call me Aunt." Bai Qian truthfully told Li Jing that since he had chosen Xuan Nv that day, he must have admired Xuan Nv's disposition and character. It couldn't possibly have just been because Xuan Nv had a face similar to hers. Now, she and he no longer had any entanglement, and both should let go.

Bai Qian only felt that running into Li Jing today was truly her bad luck. She hurriedly bowed and turned to leave. Li Jing was still calling out "A'Yin" behind her. Bai Qian sighed to herself, "Where in this world is there still an A'Yin?" Night Hua returned to the Heavenly Palace with a white silk ribbon that Bai Qian had dropped in the East Sea.

When the Soul Gathering Lamp burned Su Su's clothes three hundred years ago, it produced a green flame. Night Hua suppressed his anxiety and slowly placed Bai Qian's white silk ribbon on the Soul Gathering Lamp. He stared at it without daring to blink. It was a green flame, it was a green flame! Night Hua finally confirmed all the doubts in his heart. It was her, it was Su Su. It turns out Bai Qian is Su Su.

Night Hua put out the Soul Gathering Lamp that had been burning for three hundred years, feeling relieved. Lian Song was puzzled when he saw it. Night Hua excitedly told Lian Song that the reason the Soul Gathering Lamp had not produced even a trace of a shadow for three hundred years was because Su Su had not died. Instead, she had forgotten herself. And Su Su was the female monarch of Green Hills, High Goddess Bai Qian.

This news instantly bewildered Lian Song. But no matter what had happened, Lian Song sighed, "If I had known that mortal was your consort Bai Qian, why bother with all this trouble? How good it would have been to marry her back early and have the Four Seas and Eight Deserts celebrate for you!" Bai Qian went to Bai Zhen's residence to deliver Peach Blossom Wine. Unexpectedly, Bai Zhen was not there.

Only Bai Qian's second brother, with a darkened face, was waiting at the residence. The second brother asked Bai Qian where Fengjiu was. After all, Bai Qian doted on her niece, so she had to cover for Fengjiu. Bai Qian finally returned to Green Hills. Thinking about her trip to the East Sea and all the strange things that happened along the way, she felt truly weary.

Just as Bai Qian was about to enter the Fox Den to rest, she saw a small, green blob bouncing out of the Fox Den. Mi Gu was chasing closely behind, afraid the little person would fall. In the blink of an eye, the little person jumped onto Bai Qian's leg. He kept calling out, "Mama, Mama! You clearly said you would come back to the Heavenly Palace with A'Li and Father! Why aren't you keeping your word?"

Mi Gu saw Bai Qian's bewildered expression and had to tell his aunt that the young Heavenly Grandson and Night Hua would likely be staying at their Fox Den for a while. The Crown Prince still had some matters to attend to in the Heavenly Palace, so he sent the young Heavenly Grandson first. Furthermore, Aunt and Night Hua already had an engagement. And in the past, the Heavenly Monarch had set a precedent for the Heavenly Empress.

So what was happening now was nothing unusual. Bai Qian had no choice but to take A'Li and Mi Gu to the Mushroom Market to buy food. The citizens of Green Hills were very curious when they saw their aunt leading a little child. Someone asked Bai Qian when she had gained a little highness. Bai Qian tilted her head back and sighed, "Just yesterday, perhaps." The Emperor saw Fengjiu, knowing she had just recovered from a serious illness.

He ordered someone to tell Fengjiu that she would attend to him tonight. Fengjiu did not expect the opportunity to repay his kindness would come so quickly. She was nervous and didn't know what to do. Fengjiu dressed herself up that evening and waited for the eunuch to escort her to attend to the Emperor. Unexpectedly, those who came were the palace concubines.

They said the flower mark on her forehead was a demonic flower and would not allow Fengjiu another chance to attend to the Emperor. Fengjiu was confined to her room and felt truly troubled. She secretly used magic to go to the Emperor's bedchamber. She wanted to see what the Emperor, after becoming a mortal, truly desired. Fengjiu entered the Emperor's dream and saw that the Emperor was heartbroken. She asked him if he had any wishes in this life.

The Emperor said he didn't want empires or beauty, only a sincere heart. Hearing this, Fengjiu inexplicably felt a pang of sympathy. Bai Qian was taking A'Li to the market to pick loquats. In the blink of an eye, Night Hua appeared beside Bai Qian. Night Hua saw that the only food Bai Qian was picking was loquats. He furrowed his brow and asked, "A'Li is growing, he can't just eat these, can he?"

Bai Qian had never raised a child and naturally didn't know that this little immortal child was different from old immortals like them. Night Hua smiled helplessly. Naturally, he took Bai Qian's hand and went to find some vegetables and meat. This scene was exactly like Night Hua and Su Su at the foot of Mount Junji.

Episode 32 Recap

Ye Hua and others returned to the Fox Den from the Mushroom Market. Bai Qian sent Mi Gu to cook. Ye Hua chatted with Bai Qian, saying that Green Hills was originally a land of immortals, but Bai Qian managed it like the mortal realm. Bai Qian smiled slightly, assuming the air of a female monarch, saying that it would be boring to use immortal magic for everything.

In a few days, she even wanted to set up a battlefield for everyone to practice casually. Ye Hua looked at Bai Qian's appearance of pretending to be serious and found her extremely cute. He also jokingly said that by then, he would definitely send some heavenly soldiers and generals to cheer her on. Mi Gu is a tree spirit and naturally fears fire. Furthermore, Bai Fengjiu used to do the cooking, so he simply doesn't know how to cook.

Little A'Li kept clinging to Bai Qian, crying that he was hungry. Bai Qian also couldn't very well let A'Li keep eating loquats to stave off his hunger in front of Ye Hua. It was probably too late to go to the mortal realm and grab Bai Fengjiu back now. Bai Qian had no choice but to bite the bullet and tell Mi Gu to go post a notice outside the Fox Den to recruit a cook.

Ye Hua looked at Bai Qian like this and remembered that on Mount Junji, Su Su also didn't know how to cook at all. He didn't expect that even though Bai Qian was now a High Goddess, her cooking skills still hadn't improved. Ye Hua couldn't help but wonder how Bai Qian, who was just a mortal by herself before meeting him, managed to live on Mount Junji.

Ye Hua asked Bai Qian to add firewood on the side, while he was responsible for cooking. To ease the awkwardness, Bai Qian casually said to Ye Hua, "Your former consort had excellent cooking skills, she took such good care of you." Ye Hua was startled when he heard this, and a look of sadness appeared on his face. Bai Qian thought she had poked at his pain and felt bad.

Ye Hua replied indifferently that she, like Bai Qian, only added firewood and water while he cooked, and couldn't do anything else. At the dinner table, Ye Hua said A'Li should eat more, so that when he really turns into a little dumpling and goes back to the Heavenly Palace, he won't need to ride clouds. He can just roll himself into a ball and tumble into A'Li's Qing Yun Palace.

A'Li hurried to Bai Qian to seek help by acting spoiled. Since recognizing his mother, A'Li could finally act like a child, pouting, laughing, and playing. His chubby little face really made Bai Qian feel increasingly destined to be with this child. Bai Qian and Ye Hua coaxed A'Li to sleep. Ye Hua was in the mood and called Bai Qian to play chess. Bai Qian fell asleep while playing.

When she woke up, she found Jia Yun and Si Wen Xing Guan standing in front of her, next to the Crown Prince. Si Wen Xing Guan told Bai Qian that the Crown Prince had decided to temporarily work at the Fox Den. He would come every morning to deliver the memorials and take them back to the heavens after Ye Hua had finished reviewing them. Although Bai Qian smiled on the surface, she was extremely unwilling in her heart.

Now that even official documents were being brought to the Fox Den, Bai Qian was really worried that Ye Hua wouldn't be permanently staying here, would he? After Zi Lan and Die Feng, the sixteenth disciple and Die Feng, met in the East Sea, they returned to Kunlun Void. Zi Lan was determined that since Master had instructed them to wait for him, he would definitely return. No matter how many years passed, Kunlun Void could not be neglected.

Die Feng was still on the path of searching for Si Yin and Master's immortal body. All the disciples swore an oath to guard Kunlun Void and wait for Master's return. Su Jin was very dissatisfied when she learned that Ye Hua would be staying in Green Hills with Bai Qian and even brought the memorials to the Fox Den.

She came up with a plan to make Bai Qian aware of the Heavenly Palace's rules and, more importantly, intended to make Bai Qian voluntarily break off the engagement. Miao Qing entered Xi Wu Palace, and Su Jin pretended to be close to her. Miao Qing told Su Jin about seeing Ye Hua and Bai Qian in the East Sea. Xin Nu went to Green Hills under Su Jin's orders.

Not only did she fail to even see Bai Qian, but she was also driven out by everyone. Ye Hua had been staying in Green Hills for several days. Moreover, he had ordered people to send the memorials to Green Hills. During the day, Ye Hua handled official business in the Fox Den, while Bai Qian sat beside him, cracking melon seeds and dozing off. In the evening, Ye Hua pulled Bai Qian to play chess.

Bai Qian, who was not good at chess to begin with, always fell asleep while playing. Thus, the days passed one by one. Bai Qian nervously told Ye Hua that day Mi Gu had gone outside the den and met a fairy attendant from Su Jin's side. She was not only arrogant but also slandered Bai Qian, saying that she wasn't even officially married to Ye Hua yet she kept occupying him all day.

Even as a High Goddess, such behavior was unreasonable. Bai Qian felt that Ye Hua staying in the Fox Den all day really was a bit unreasonable. After Bai Qian hesitated and said so much, Ye Hua only had one sentence in reply: "In any case, you, Bai Qian, are my wife. I am coming to live with you in the Fox Den. What does it matter what others gossip about?" Bai Qian found these words quite comforting.

Ye Hua told Bai Qian to lie down. He prepared his brush and ink, wanting to paint a sketch of Bai Qian. Bai Qian happily did as she was told. Unexpectedly, she fell asleep while he was painting. Ye Hua gently draped his clothes over Bai Qian and stared at her, unable to bear to leave for even a moment. Su Jin was furious after hearing Xin Nu's report.

At the Heavenly Monarch's birthday banquet, the North Sea Water Monarch brought his eldest son, Yuan Zhen, to the Heavenly Palace to congratulate the Heavenly Monarch. After learning this, Su Jin came up with another plan. Ye Hua was taking Bai Qian and A'Li to the mortal realm. A'Li was having so much fun he forgot about home. Ye Hua secretly told Bai Qian that it was A'Li's birthday today.

Bai Qian chided Ye Hua for not telling her earlier, as she hadn't prepared a gift for A'Li. Ye Hua teased Bai Qian, asking what kind of gift she would prepare. A luminous pearl? They say High Goddess Bai Qian loves giving luminous pearls to people, small pearls for minor immortals, and large pearls for elderly immortals.

Bai Qian heard Ye Hua mocking her and quickly defended herself, saying that she still had a half-person-tall luminous pearl left in the Fox Den. Installing it in A'Li's bedchamber would always be fun. Ye Hua was urgently summoned back to the Heavenly Palace due to a matter. Bai Qian took A'Li to a teahouse to listen to a storyteller. The mother and son decided to listen while waiting for Ye Hua to return.

Die Feng came to report to Ye Hua that the immortals who had attended the birthday banquet from the East Sea had, without exception, encountered puppet attacks from the Ghost Tribe either on their way back to their residences or at home. However, the Ghost Tribe had long since submitted to the divine Tribes. Logically, they should not have made such moves. Now, this matter even made Ye Hua feel somewhat baffled.

Episode 33 Recap

After dinner, Bai Qian and A'Li played on the street. A'Li accidentally entered a brothel and even mistakenly stumbled into a customer's room. This scared Bai Qian immensely, so she quickly sneaked in and brought him out. Bai Qian and A'Li agreed that this was their little secret and they couldn't tell Ye Hua about it. Bai Qian and A'Li were flirted with by a dissolute young man on the bridge.

Bai Qian was just about to use a spell to send this fellow into the wilderness to stay for a while when suddenly a pair of strong hands wrapped around Bai Qian's waist and pulled her into an embrace. Bai Qian focused her gaze, and smilingly said to this person, "Ye Hua Jun, you've arrived just in time."

Ye Hua held Bai Qian with one hand, and with a cold gaze, said to that frivolous young man, "You're quite happy flirting with my wife, aren't you?" Even A'Li gravely sighed at that person, "You're quite the talent to be able to make my Daddy angry." Unexpectedly, that person became angry out of shame and shouted, "Do you know who I am?" Before he could finish speaking, Ye Hua waved his hand and the person disappeared without a trace.

Ye Hua turned around and carefully examined Bai Qian, frowning and saying, "Why didn't you dodge when someone took advantage of you?" Bai Qian said indifferently, "Someone just touched me once or twice." When Ye Hua heard this, the expression on his face immediately vanished. He wrapped his arm around Bai Qian's waist and kissed her without question. Bai Qian was stunned. Ye Hua said expressionlessly, "And someone was just kissed once or twice."

Bai Qian was stunned for a long while, and then her face immediately turned red. The inns in the small town were all full, and there was only one empty room. Ye Hua and the other two could only stay in one room. Although Bai Qian was a Female High Goddess respected throughout the Four Seas and Eight Wildernesses, she was ultimately a woman, and her love experience was pitifully scarce.

This was the first time she would be alone with Ye Hua in the same room. Although little A'Li was with them and they couldn't do anything, it was still somewhat awkward. As the night deepened, Bai Qian got into bed and fell asleep holding A'Li. Ye Hua sat by the side reading, watching the two of them. Ye Hua looked at the sleeping Bai Qian with tenderness in his eyes and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

He had always known her temperament, but he hadn't expected her to forget him so completely and resolutely. Now, his heart both longed for Bai Qian to remember him and feared that she would remember. Love truly makes people so contradictory. Suddenly, the sound of fighting came from outside the window. Ye Hua flew out and saw Jia Yun being surrounded by a group of black-clothed men. Ye Hua struck back and repelled the enemies.

Jia Yun asked Ye Hua if they should continue the pursuit. Ye Hua waved his hand and said, "These people are merely projections of magic. We will discuss this after returning to the Heavenly Palace." Ye Hua had to go to the Heavenly Palace for the Heavenly Monarch's birthday banquet, so Bai Qian took A'Li back to Green Hills alone. Bai Qian and Mi Gu were both people who couldn't cook.

When Ye Hua was in the Fox Den, they never felt anything special about having meals cooked by him, but now that Ye Hua was gone, Bai Qian and A'Li could only subsist on loquats, and felt much more empty. Even A'Li really couldn't stand it, pulling at Bai Qian's skirt every day and tearfully asking when Father Monarch would return.

Bai Qian used to always hear Fengjiu talk about the feelings of love when she was drunk, and she thought that there was nothing in this world more unforgettable than love. But now, it seems there truly was one thing that was as tormenting as love, and that was Ye Hua's cooking skills.

Su Jin, in order to keep Ye Hua in the Heavenly Palace and prevent him from going to Green Hills to be with Bai Qian, planned to use the Heavenly Monarch's birthday banquet. Sang Ji would be bringing his eldest son with Shao Sin, Yuan Zhen, to wish the Heavenly Monarch a happy birthday. The Heavenly Monarch had always been angry at that little snake, and even consequently disliked Yuan Zhen, this grandson.

And Su Jin's scheme was precisely to make it seem like she had been flirted with by Yuan Zhen, thus enraging the Heavenly Monarch. This way, in order to give her an explanation, he would definitely make Ye Hua stay in the Heavenly Palace for a few days. Thus, her goal would be achieved.

Su Jin lied to Yuan Zhen, saying that the Heavenly Monarch was in Xi Wu Palace and that she could take him to see the Heavenly Monarch. Yuan Zhen naively believed Su Jin's words and followed her back to Xi Wu Palace. Su Jin used magic to drug him when he wasn't paying attention, forced a large amount of wine down his throat, and deliberately dishevelled his clothes and helped him onto Su Jin's bed.

Su Jin had someone hang white silk from the beam, and told Xin Nu to cry out on her way out that she had been flirted with by the young prince and was going to hang herself. The shouting attracted the Heavenly Monarch and the crowd. Yuan Zhen and Su Jin knelt on the ground, Su Jin put on an extremely wronged expression, weeping profusely. Yuan Zhen was truly frightened by the sudden situation.

Su Jin repeatedly cried out, begging the Heavenly Monarch and Ye Hua to grant her death. Sang Ji knelt and begged the Heavenly Monarch to spare Yuan Zhen's life, seeing that he was still young. The Heavenly Monarch's anger was difficult to quell. He ordered Yuan Zhen to be bound with the Immortal Binding Rope and thrown to the mortal realm to undergo sixty years of tribulation before rejoining the immortal ranks.

After everyone dispersed, Ye Hua said coldly to Su Jin, "This is how you framed Su Su back then. What play are you acting now?" Ye Hua frankly told Su Jin that he had spared her life for two reasons: one was for the Soul Gathering Lamp, and the other was to use her eye sockets to nourish Su Su's eyes. Su Jin hadn't expected that Ye Hua had long seen through her scheme.

Ye Hua left the speechless Su Jin and turned away in disgust. Lian Song asked Ye Hua why he hadn't brought Bai Qian into the Heavenly Palace yet. Ye Hua said sadly, "She has already forgotten me completely." Lian Song surmised that it must be Zhe Yan's forgetfulness wine. Ye Hua decided to start over. The Heavenly Palace held no good memories for Bai Qian. Let her forget.

Now Ye Hua only needed Bai Qian to have him in her heart, and there was nothing that could stop them from being openly and rightfully together. He could finally rightfully marry her as his wife. Fengjiu was feeling sorry for herself that she hadn't seen the Emperor in nearly two years, and how she was ever going to repay this favor. Unexpectedly, the Emperor suddenly appeared in her bedchamber.

The Emperor looked lonely, and Fengjiu then realized that the Emperor had a Royal Noble Consort in his harem who, after giving birth to Prince Yuan Zhen, suddenly declared she wanted to become a nun. The Emperor had always doted on this consort, but now that noble consort only came to see her son on the fifteenth of every month and refused to see the Emperor again.

The Emperor had always had a knot in his heart about this matter and remained gloomy day after day Fengjiu secretly thought to herself, "Si Ming wrote Di Jun's love tribulation in this life so difficultly, isn't he afraid that when Di Jun returns to his position one day, he will make him taste the bitterness of human love?"

The Emperor's heart was stirred by Fengjiu, especially the phoenix tail flower on her forehead, which made his eyes fixated on Fengjiu's face. Unfortunately, Fengjiu couldn't say any affectionate words when she saw the Emperor. When the Emperor wanted to get close, Fengjiu instinctively wanted to escape. Fengjiu was troubled, thinking that she couldn't repay the favor like this. Suddenly, Fengjiu thought she could use the Two Lives Charm.

Episode 34 Recap

Bai Qian felt that relying on Ye Hua to cook all day was not a long-term plan, so she came up with an idea. She had Mi Gu go to Green Hills to find someone to become Ye Hua's last disciple, so that even if Ye Hua wasn't in Green Hills in the future, they would still have delicious food. Mi Gu posted notices widely in Green Hills. Little immortals scrambled to the Fox Den to sign up.

After Ye Hua saw them, he repeatedly shook his head and said, "Tell them all to leave. Not a single one has good aptitude." Ye Hua looked at Bai Qian affectionately and said, "You are very suitable, but it's enough for one of us to know how. She really has no need to learn." When Bai Qian heard this, she awkwardly coughed a few times. Mi Gu came to ask which one his aunt Bai Qian had chosen.

Bai Qian, resigned, told Mi Gu that Ye Hua hadn't taken a fancy to any of them and that everyone should disperse. Ye Hua held Bai Qian's hand and went for a walk. Ye Hua had the intention of asking Bai Qian if she wanted to go see the Heavenly Palace. Just as he was speaking, Shao Sin came to request an audience with Bai Qian, holding a Cloud-Breaking Fan.

When Shao Sin saw Ye Hua next to Bai Qian, she was timid and didn't dare to speak. Bai Qian glanced at Ye Hua and told Shao Sin that Ye Hua Jun was not an outsider. Shao Sin gathered her courage and told Bai Qian about Yuan Zhen being punished by the Heavenly Monarch to undergo sixty years of tribulation in the mortal realm for flirting with Su Jin, the side consort, after drinking.

Shao Sin earnestly requested that her aunt Bai Qian go to the mortal realm to save Yuan Zhen's life. It turned out that Shao Sin had calculated that Yuan Zhen would face a great tribulation when he was eighteen years old, and this tribulation would make Yuan Zhen suffer for his entire life. A mother could not bear to see her child suffer, so she had to come and beg her aunt Bai Qian.

Bai Qian looked at Ye Hua, worried that since Su Jin was his side consort after all, this wouldn't it damage Ye Hua's reputation? But unexpectedly, Ye Hua said indifferently, "There is no need to worry about my reputation. I don't have any side consorts." Bai Qian agreed to Shao Sin's request, but she also told Shao Sin that from then on, Green Hills would have no further connection with her.

Bai Qian wanted to go to Si Ming to borrow the Book of Fate to see what kind of great tribulation Yuan Zhen's was, so she could prepare to help him overcome it. Ye Hua told her that Si Ming was originally eccentric, and even the Heavenly Monarch couldn't borrow that book to look at it. Ye Hua said that Si Ming owed him a favor anyway, so he would handle this matter.

However, Ye Hua had one request, which was for Qian Qian to seal her magic after going to the mortal realm. Bai Qian was confused. Ye Hua explained to her that immortals who modify a mortal's fate are subject to magical backlash. When Ye Hua and Bai Qian ascend as the Heavenly Monarch and Heavenly Empress in the future, they will both have to endure Karmic Fire and Heavenly Lightning.

If this backlash injured Bai Qian, Ye Hua was worried that Bai Qian might lose her life then. Bai Qian thought about it and felt that what Ye Hua said made sense, so she agreed to the matter of sealing her magic. Just as she was speaking, Bai Qian suddenly felt something was wrong and quickly explained to Ye Hua, "I haven't married you yet.

If you are going to inherit the position of Heavenly Monarch, I will not endure that Karmic Fire and Heavenly Lightning with you." Ye Hua was amused by Bai Qian's appearance. His eyes full of tender affection, he looked at Bai Qian and said, "Are you blaming me for not marrying you into Xi Wu Palace earlier three hundred years ago?" When asked like this, Bai Qian really couldn't maintain her composure.

She made an excuse to urge Ye Hua to quickly go ask Si Ming about Yuan Zhen's matter so she could settle this concern sooner. Ye Hua went to ask Si Ming about Yuan Zhen's fate. Si Ming recounted everything to Ye Hua. This Yuan Zhen was reborn in the mortal realm into an imperial family, surnamed Song, and was called Song Yuan Zhen.

His mother was originally a Noble Consort, but after giving birth to him, she became a nun. This Yuan Zhen also only returned to the imperial palace when he was fifteen years old. When Yuan Zhen was eighteen years old, he would travel with the emperor. On that day, a roc flew in the sky, startling a beauty who fell into the water. Yuan Zhen heroically saved the beauty.

When he rescued her, their eyes met, and they fell for each other. But unexpectedly, the emperor also took a fancy to the beauty and directly brought her back to the palace to favor her. Later, Yuan Zhen got drunk once and had relations with this beauty. Several months later, the beauty gave birth to a prince. After the old emperor passed away, Yuan Zhen contended for the throne with that prince. The prince ultimately died by Yuan Zhen's sword.

When this news reached the beauty's ears, the beauty was heartbroken and hanged herself, leaving a letter telling Yuan Zhen that the prince was his biological son. Yuan Zhen, full of hatred, also wanted to commit suicide. However, at that time, he was the only male left in the royal family. Yuan Zhen inherited the throne and lived the rest of his life in self-reproach and regret. The conversation between Ye Hua and Si Ming was overheard by Miao Qing.

Miao Qing told this to Su Jin. When Su Jin heard that Bai Qian was going to seal her magic and go to the mortal realm to help Yuan Zhen overcome his tribulation, another malicious scheme couldn't help but arise in her heart. She used flattering words to persuade Miao Qing to also take a trip to the mortal realm.

When Bai Qian heard Ye Hua recount Yuan Zhen's story to her, she couldn't help but sigh that Yuan Zhen's life was written so dramatically by Si Ming. If Si Ming didn't go write a script, it would truly be a waste of talent. Ye Hua arranged an identity for Bai Qian in the mortal realm. Yuan Zhen's previous master was a Taoist nun, and Bai Qian would be that nun's senior sister.

Bai Qian would stay by his side after he entered the palace as his new master to help him overcome the tribulation. Li Jing went to Kunlun Void to request an audience with Si Yin through Zi Lan. Li Jing also told Zi Lan that he had seen Si Yin in the Northern Wilderness. Zi Lan did not believe Li Jing's words and kicked him out.

People from the divine Tribes came to report to Ye Hua, saying that people from the Wing Tribe were searching for High Immortal Si Yin all over the country and even brought a portrait of High Immortal Si Yin drawn by Li Jing. Ye Hua looked at the portrait, and finally had the answer in his heart. So, Qian Qian was truly High Immortal Si Yin. But why would she take away Mo Yuan's immortal body?

Why did she disappear for so many years? Why did she avoid seeing her martial brothers? Ye Hua didn't know if Bai Qian would tell him if he went to ask her these things. Li Jing returned to the Wing Tribe and found Xuan Nv, questioning her about who Si Yin really was. Li Jing told Xuan Nv that Si Yin was from the Fox Tribe. Only then did Xuan Nv understand that Si Yin was actually Bai Qian.

Thinking of this, Xuan Nv's hatred surged. The man she had loved for so many years, whose heart and mind were filled with Bai Qian? Bai Qian already had Ye Hua, so why was she competing with her for Li Jing? Xuan Nv suddenly thought of Mo Yuan's immortal body. Xuan Nv transformed into Bai Qian's appearance and came to Green Hills.

Mi Gu looked at Xuan Nv in the guise of his aunt and found it very strange; many things did not match Bai Qian's temperament. Xuan Nv found out from Mi Gu that Mo Yuan was in Yan Hua Cave and ran there impatiently. Mi Gu recognized that this person was not his aunt, but the traitor Xuan Nv. Xuan Nv used illusion magic to fix Mi Gu in place and made him bring A'Li over as well.

Bai Qian returned to the imperial palace with Yuan Zhen and had been worrying about how to help Yuan Zhen overcome his tribulation. At night, Ye Hua appeared in Bai Qian's room. Looking at Bai Qian with a face full of smiles, he said, "Qian Qian, I haven't seen you for a few days. I've been thinking about you intensely. Have you been thinking about me too?" Bai Qian had no acquaintances in this mortal realm. Ye Hua's sudden arrival genuinely delighted her for a moment, but this blatant declaration of love startled Bai Qian.

Episode 35 Recap

That night, Bai Qian, as usual, was deep in thought in her room, pondering how to help Yuan Zhen overcome his tribulation. Just as she was thinking, Ye Hua suddenly appeared in the room, his face full of smiles as he looked at Bai Qian and said, "Qian Qian, I haven't seen you for a few days. I've been thinking about you intensely. Have you been thinking about me too?"

Bai Qian was truly startled by this sudden declaration of love. Fortunately, Ye Hua saw Bai Qian's shyness and didn't continue with the declaration of love. Ye Hua turned and sat on the edge of the bed, patting the spot beside him. Bai Qian hesitated slightly before sitting down. Ye Hua had come this time to tell Bai Qian something very important.

It turned out that Yuan Zhen's father in this life in the mortal realm was none other than Dong Hua, who had come down to the mortal realm to undergo tribulation. Bai Qian was truly surprised to hear this. She hadn't expected it to be the Divine Monarch that girl Bai Fengjiu had a crush on.

Ye Hua specifically instructed Bai Qian that Dong Hua had voluntarily requested to descend to the mortal realm for experience, so when she helps Yuan Zhen overcome his tribulation, she must not alter Dong Hua's fate. After hearing this, Bai Qian's heart was filled with more worry. It seemed it would truly not be easy to ensure Yuan Zhen survived this tribulation. A strong wind blew outside, making the window lattices rattle. Bai Qian got up to close the window.

When she turned around, she was dumbfounded. Ye Hua had already taken off his outer robe and spread out the bedding. He looked at Bai Qian with a face full of tender affection and asked, "Do you prefer sleeping on the inner or outer side?" Bai Qian awkwardly swallowed and pointed to the floor, saying, "I'll sleep on the floor." Ye Hua slowly said, "Tonight, whether on the floor or on the bed, the result will be the same.

Could it be that Qian Qian, you are half-heartedly. . ." . When Bai Qian heard this, she quickly interrupted Ye Hua, her face full of smiles as she said, "No, no, no, it's not like that. I was just afraid of inconveniencing Ye Hua. I'm used to sleeping on the outer side." And so, with Ye Hua on the inner side and Bai Qian on the outer, they finally settled down to rest.

In Bai Qian's memory, this was the first time she had shared a bed with a man. Although this man would be her future husband, she was still too embarrassed to fall asleep. From behind, Ye Hua said, "Qian Qian, would you like me to hold you while you sleep?" Bai Qian was stunned. She reflexively moved towards the outer edge of the bed. With a bang, Bai Qian rolled twice and fell onto the floor.

Ye Hua looked at Bai Qian in her disheveled state, laughed, got out of bed, and helped Bai Qian up. He teased her, saying he knew she wasn't honest in her sleep, which was why he wanted to hold her while he slept. Bai Qian quickly explained for herself that the bed was too small, too small. When the two of them lay back on the bed, Ye Hua protected Bai Qian on the inner side.

As a result of the earlier commotion, Bai Qian was even more unable to sleep. Ye Hua said faintly, "Qian Qian, do you know High Immortal Si Yin?" Bai Qian was startled but pretended not to care, replying, "I've heard of him, but I've never had the chance to meet him. Didn't they say he disappeared with his master?" Ye Hua sighed thoughtfully to himself, "I originally thought you would know more.

In the past few days, Li Jing has been searching for him everywhere with a portrait of Si Yin from back then. I looked at the portrait and suddenly thought it was you disguised as a man." Bai Qian vaguely agreed with Ye Hua, "Perhaps it's just a coincidence." After Bai Qian fell asleep, Ye Hua quietly watched her. He placed a gentle kiss on Bai Qian's eyes.

When she woke up in the morning, Ye Hua was in a very good mood, sitting leisurely at the table. He said, "Qian Qian, come here and tie my hair." Bai Qian was stunned and asked, "Are you calling me?" Ye Hua, holding a comb, looked at Bai Qian and said, "Today I am going to have an audience with the Heavenly Monarch. It wouldn't do to be improperly dressed."

Bai Qian took the wooden comb and carefully styled Ye Hua's hair for his crown. Once it was done, Ye Hua said in a low voice, "In the past, you. . ." . Ye Hua did not finish his sentence. Although Bai Qian found it strange, she did not press him.

Ye Hua took out a string of beads from his sleeve and placed it on Bai Qian's hand, instructing her that since her magic was sealed like a mortal's, she should keep it for self-defense, just in case. Seeing Ye Hua alternate between happiness and worry, Bai Qian didn't say much either. She only hoped that this matter would be resolved quickly so they could both be relieved.

As Ye Hua was leaving, he paused and said, "Yesterday I was busy with serious matters, but I forgot to tell you. When the first day of the sixth month arrives, you just need to firmly hold Yuan Zhen back, and send someone to push Dong Hua into the river. That way, Dong Hua will go to save the beauty. Then, when their eyes meet, their love will be deeply rooted.

This way, it won't disturb Dong Hua's fate, and it will also free Yuan Zhen from this love tribulation. This would be the best outcome." After Ye Hua left, Bai Qian wondered what serious matters he was talking about last night. Not a single thing that happened last night could be called a serious matter. However, listening to what Ye Hua said afterwards, this is indeed a good way to help Yuan Zhen overcome his tribulation.

Ye Hua's method finally resolved Bai Qian's worry. Now she just needed to find a suitable person to push Dong Hua into the water. Bai Qian thought she should also go find that girl Bai Fengjiu. Just as she was going out, she happened to meet Yuan Zhen, who had come to find her.

Bai Qian, using the pretense of diligently studying Taoist methods, subtly inquired with Yuan Zhen and found out that there was a Noble Consort in the imperial harem with the surname Chen, and she had a phoenix-tail flower marking on her forehead. Bai Qian figured this must be little Jiu who had come to repay a debt of gratitude. Bai Qian sent Yuan Zhen away and found a palace maid to take her to Bai Fengjiu's courtyard.

As soon as she entered, she saw a woman sitting dejectedly beside a fish pond. Bai Qian looked at her beloved little niece, who was so haggard from repaying a debt of gratitude, and her heart ached. Bai Qian said sadly, "Little Jiu, Auntie has come to see you." Bai Fengjiu saw her auntie and immediately threw herself into Bai Qian's arms. With a face full of fear, crying and pleading, she said, "Auntie, don't take me away.

I love him, I can't be without him." Seeing her like this, Bai Qian wondered if she had used the Green Hills forbidden technique, the Two Lives Curse. Bai Qian immediately knocked Bai Fengjiu unconscious and ordered someone to take her to her room to rest. Bai Qian saw the situation and knew she would have to wait for Bai Fengjiu to wake up and come to find her herself.

Bai Qian had no choice but to return to her own residence first. Around dinnertime, Bai Qian was eating alone in her room. Bai Fengjiu came, her face full of sorrow, and knelt on the ground, saying, "Auntie, Bai Fengjiu has come to apologize to you." Bai Qian then said, "Did you really use that Two Lives Curse? Why on earth would you use that?" Bai Fengjiu blushed repeatedly and said, "Auntie is wise."

Bai Fengjiu told Bai Qian that she had gone into Dong Hua's dream and learned that in this life, Dong Hua did not desire wealth or the empire, but only wished to find someone he truly loved. Bai Qian was surprised and said, "So this life's Dong Hua is actually so ordinary." Bai Fengjiu sheepishly said that she had originally planned to retreat completely once Dong Hua met the person he loved on the first day of the sixth month.

But she hadn't expected that she couldn't even speak a word of love to Dong Hua when she saw him, so she had no choice but to use the Two Lives Curse. Bai Qian remembered something important and asked if Dong Hua had taken advantage of Bai Fengjiu. Bai Fengjiu quickly shook her head and said that Dong Hua had only visited her once and left after a short while. Only then did Bai Qian feel relieved.

Bai Qian saw Bai Fengjiu out. Zhe Yan appeared in mid-air. Bai Qian smiled and said, "This Bamboo Garden of mine is truly a great place. So many divine beings have visited in one night." Zhe Yan told Bai Qian that the day after she went to the East Sea feast, Ye Hua had also looked for him to ask about the old events from three hundred years ago.

He, of course, told him that Bai Qian had gone into seclusion and fallen asleep after the battle with Qing Cang. Zhe Yan was worried that the marriage between Ye Hua and Bai Qian might fall through again. Bai Qian thought about how Ye Hua had been treating her recently and replied to Zhe Yan, "Probably not." Only then did Zhe Yan feel relieved.

When Zhe Yan returned to the Peach Blossom Grove, he was hastily pulled by Bai Zhen to go to the West Sea. It turned out that Bai Zhen had met Die Feng, the Second Prince of the West Sea, in the mortal realm by chance, and they had gotten along very well. Die Feng had been looking worried all the time. Bai Zhen inquired and only then learned that he was worried about his elder brother.

The Eldest Prince of the West Sea, whose body was not particularly robust six hundred years ago, had somehow suddenly deteriorated. Many physicians had been consulted, but it was all in vain. Even the Medicine King of the Heavenly Tribe was helpless. The Medicine King only said that the Eldest Prince's illness did not seem to be physical. Zhe Yan went to the West Sea with Bai Zhen.

When he used his magic to investigate the Eldest Prince, Zhe Yan was startled and silently exclaimed, "How could this be?" As the first day of the sixth month was fast approaching, Bai Qian still hadn't found a suitable person to push Dong Hua into the water. Coincidentally, on this day, Shao Sin, missing her son, secretly came to the mortal realm and watched Yuan Zhen from afar, shedding tears.

Bai Qian called Shao Sin over and told her about her plan. Now, she needed someone to be invisible beside the emperor on that day and push the emperor into the water after the beauty fell in. Then the task would be accomplished. Shao Sin had originally wanted to do it herself, but since she was pregnant, it was truly inconvenient. Shao Sin thought that only Sang Ji would be most suitable.

Finally, the first day of the sixth month arrived quickly. The emperor, his consorts, and Yuan Zhen were all watching the singing and dancing by the riverbank. Ye Hua, worried about Bai Qian's safety, specifically rushed over with Si Ming to watch from the side. Bai Qian called Yuan Zhen over according to the plan and found an excuse for Yuan Zhen to leave.

Suddenly, a roc appeared in the sky, grabbed a beauty from the bank, and threw her into the water. Everyone was in a panic. Sang Ji took action in time and kicked Ye Hua into the water. But Bai Qian, with all her calculations, hadn't expected that this life's Dong Hua was actually a "landlubber" who couldn't swim at all.

Bai Fengjiu on the bank, bound by the Two Lives Curse, saw the Emperor fall into the water and instinctively jumped down to rescue the Emperor and bring him ashore. In the chaos, someone secretly pushed Bai Qian, intending to push her into the river. Fortunately, Ye Hua was there and rescued Bai Qian in time. Bai Qian worried that since Ye Hua had used his magic in the mortal realm to save her, he would suffer backlash.

After Ye Hua confirmed Bai Qian was safe, he reassured her, "As long as you are well, I don't care what happens to me." Bai Qian was deeply moved. It turned out that the one who pushed Bai Qian into the river was none other than Princess Miao Qing, who had been instigated by Su Jin to come to the mortal realm to teach Bai Qian a lesson.

When Su Jin heard from Miao Qing that not only had she failed to successfully frame Bai Qian, but Ye Hua had also rescued Bai Qian, in order to prevent this matter from implicating her in the future, Su Jin secretly thought that she needed to come up with a foolproof plan.

Episode 36 Recap

After the Emperor fell into the water, Imperial physicians rushed over to diagnose and check the Emperor's pulse. Ye Hua and Si Ming had also secretly snuck away from the Peach Blossom Feast. Now that the matter was settled, the two of them quickly returned. Bai Qian thought that although Yuan Zhen's matter had a few hitches, it was finally over. Yuan Zhen's fate from then on could be considered complete.

Days and nights in the mortal realm pass quickly; in the blink of an eye, while Bai Qian returned to the Bamboo Garden for a nap, it was already night. As Bai Qian got up, about to go towards Bai Fengjiu's place, she ran into Yuan Zhen who had come looking for her. Yuan Zhen stammered that he had something he wanted to discuss with his master.

As he spoke, he brought his hands from behind his back, carefully opened them up, and oh my! It was actually the Great Peng bird that had caused trouble today. That was no ordinary Great Peng bird, but the Golden-Winged Great Peng bird under the seat of Tathagata Buddha in the Western Heaven.

Now tied up by Yuan Zhen with an Immortal-binding bell, it had become sparrow-sized, looking at Bai Qian with its head drooping and a wronged expression, wanting to beg Bai Qian to ask this person to release it. However, Yuan Zhen thought the little bird was happy being kept by him. He pleaded with Bai Qian if she could discuss with the bird's owner.

He was just a mortal; after he returned to the Western Heaven, he would naturally return the bird to its original owner. Bai Qian thought that since she had taken Yuan Zhen as a disciple, she hadn't really taught him anything. Now that her task was completed, she was about to bid him farewell; letting him have something to remember was fine, so she agreed to Yuan Zhen's request. Ye Hua and Si Ming suddenly appeared, standing upright in mid-air.

Yuan Zhen exclaimed that he had finally seen immortals. Ye Hua walked to Bai Qian's side and naturally pulled Qian Qian into his embrace. Yuan Zhen asked Ye Hua if it was because his father was diligent in governance and loved his people that immortals had come to seek his father. Ye Hua glanced at Yuan Zhen and said, "I'm afraid I must disappoint the Crown Prince. This trip, I am merely here to find my wife."

Bai Qian smiled awkwardly at Yuan Zhen and said, "He's here to find me, to find me." Yuan Zhen stared at them in shock. Si Ming erased Yuan Zhen's memory and made Yuan Zhen fall asleep. Only then did he explain their purpose to Bai Qian: he wanted to ask Bai Qian to go with him to find Bai Fengjiu and help her. The three of them went together to Bai Fengjiu's place.

Bai Fengjiu was sitting and thinking, her expression utterly miserable. Seeing people arrive, she was listless, and faintly called out, "Guests are here, offer tea." Bai Qian nudged Bai Fengjiu, and only then did Bai Fengjiu come back to her senses. Seeing it was her auntie, she immediately threw herself into Bai Qian's embrace and cried out, saying she had embarrassed herself again during the day.

Not only that, Bai Fengjiu said with a face full of sorrow, that her destiny was entwined with the Divine Monarch's. Now he had missed his beloved person. And after waking up from falling into the water, he grabbed her hand, his eyes so full of deep affection that water could be squeezed out of them. He even wanted to promote her rank. Bai Qian and Ye Hua were also silently speechless about this matter.

Si Ming enthusiastically told Bai Fengjiu that since Divine Monarch Dong Hua was so deeply in love with her this time, the only course of action now was for the little highness to accompany Divine Monarch Dong Hua and finish acting out this play. Only by doing so could the little highness avoid interfering with the Divine Monarch's fate and suffering backlash. And only then could the Divine Monarch's mortal realm tribulation be completed successfully.

Bai Qian hadn't expected that her act of helping others would actually implicate her beloved little niece. Bai Qian looked at Bai Fengjiu with endless sadness. Bai Fengjiu sadly asked Si Ming, since she was told to accompany the Divine Monarch in creating this tribulation, how should this tribulation be created now?

Si Ming said softly, "You just need to give the Divine Monarch some sweetness first, and after you have obtained the Divine Monarch's true heart, then repeatedly torment it." Bai Fengjiu annoyedly lay on the table and cried. A report came from outside the door announcing the Emperor's arrival. Bai Qian removed Bai Fengjiu's Two Lives Curse, and the three of them quickly disappeared.

The Emperor was not only deeply in love with Bai Fengjiu, but also doted on her greatly. However, Bai Fengjiu had lost the Two Lives Curse and couldn't even say words of love. She didn't even dare to look the Emperor directly in the eyes. The Emperor decided to give Bai Fengjiu a mortal realm wedding ceremony. Bai Fengjiu wore a phoenix coronet and embroidered robe, and the Emperor wore a celebratory robe.

The two of them bowed to heaven and earth again. Looking at the Divine Monarch who was so deeply affectionate towards her, Bai Fengjiu couldn't tell if she was there to repay a debt of gratitude or to seek love. After spending several days in the mortal realm, Bai Qian could finally return to Green Hills.

Because Ye Hua still had important matters to attend to in the Heavenly Palace, he asked Bai Qian to return to Green Hills first and said he would go find her there in two days. As Bai Qian entered the cave entrance, she saw Mi Gu walking over with an unnatural expression. Bai Qian looked closely and found that Mi Gu had been put under a soul-bewitching spell; she quickly broke it for him.

Mi Gu recovered and frantically told Bai Qian that yesterday, Xuan Nv had disguised herself as her, come to the fox cave, stolen Mo Yuan's immortal body, and also kidnapped A-Li. Bai Qian was greatly shaken. The Jade Pure Kunlun Fan, which she hadn't used in five hundred years, revealed its true form in the lake. In the seven-zhang water cascade that surged up, Bai Qian's pair of crimson eyes was reflected.

Bai Qian sneered, "Fan, I'm afraid you will taste blood today." In the blink of an eye, Bai Qian used immortal magic to fly on clouds directly towards the Grand Violet Palace. Mi Gu panicked, "How could Auntie go to the Wing Tribe alone? What are we going to do?" Suddenly, Mi Gu remembered the Crown Prince, and quickly ran to the Heavenly Palace to find Ye Hua.

Ye Hua discussed with Die Feng and others, analyzing the current situation of the immortal attacks. Most likely, the Wing Queen wanted to cure her sick child and decided to use an ancient forbidden technique to turn immortal bodies into elixirs, using the immortals' vital energy to save her child. That's why the Wing Tribe people were attacking immortals everywhere, their goal being to kill a High God to refine into an elixir.

As they were talking, Mi Gu arrived in a hurry, begging Ye Hua to quickly go save his auntie, who had gone to the Wing Tribe alone. Upon hearing this, Ye Hua immediately rushed to the Wing Tribe without delay. Bai Qian arrived at the Wing Tribe and found that the Grand Violet Palace, which had been heavily guarded seventy thousand years ago, was now unguarded. It seemed Xuan Nv intended to lure the lord into a trap.

Bai Qian sneered, saying she was no longer the same person as seventy thousand years ago, and now she would surely bloodbath the Grand Violet Palace. Bai Qian fought her way into the main hall, only to see Xuan Nv standing in the center of the hall, surrounded by Wing Tribe soldiers. Xuan Nv gave a sinister laugh, "Qian Qian, seventy thousand years have passed, hope you've been well?

Hearing that Lord said Si Yin was a fox tribe woman, I guessed it was you. I am very happy that Mo Yuan's immortal body has been kept so well by you. For this effort of yours, I will definitely have them give you a quick death." Bai Qian sneered, "That depends on whether you have the ability." After speaking, the Jade Pure Kunlun Fan shot out from Bai Qian's hand, and strong winds howled from all directions.

The Kunlun Fan grew to about three chi long. Bai Qian leaped up, grabbed it, twirled the fan, stabbing the soldiers and cutting a bloody path. During the fight, the white silk covering Bai Qian's eyes to block the light was cut off. When Bai Qian's eyes were uncomfortable, she was outnumbered and struck by multiple blades, her body already covered in wounds. At the critical moment, Ye Hua appeared in time and embraced Bai Qian.

Bai Qian saw clearly who the person was, finally relaxed, and said with a smile, "If you had come half an hour earlier, I wouldn't be this miserable." Ye Hua held Bai Qian with eyes full of heartache and said with full of guilt, "I came late, Qian Qian." Seeing Bai Qian's body full of wounds, Ye Hua softly asked, "Who hurt you like this?"

Bai Qian gritted her teeth and stood steady, looking at Xuan Nv and saying, "Those who hurt me have almost all been killed by me. Only this woman is left. She insulted my revered master, hurt my family. I want to personally end her." Bai Qian waved her hand, channeled her magic, aimed the fan at Xuan Nv and sent it out. Unexpectedly, Li Jing had rushed back and blocked the fan, which was then grabbed by Ye Hua.

Bai Qian took back the appearance she had given to Xuan Nv in the Peach Blossom Grove back then. Xuan Nv looked at her reflection in the mirror and actually went mad, digging out her own eyeballs. Her face was covered in blood and flesh, truly horrifying. Bai Qian finally couldn't support herself and collapsed into Ye Hua's arms. Ye Hua whispered softly in Bai Qian's ear, "Qian Qian, can you still hold on?" Bai Qian shook her head. A soft light appeared before her eyes, and she fell into a deep sleep.

Episode 37 Recap

After the bloody battle in the Grand Violet Palace, Bai Qian's immortal body was weak and she fainted in Ye Hua's arms. Ye Hua held Bai Qian tightly, looked coldly at Li Jing, and left, merely telling the Winged Monarch to handle the matter himself. Xuan Nv was changed back to her original appearance by Bai Qian, but she couldn't bear the blow of her true face and actually gouged out her own eyes.

Ye Hua and Bai Qian left, and Xuan Nv knelt on the ground, repeatedly calling out "Lord, Lord". Li Jing looked at the self-destructive Xuan Nv with a mournful expression, "I have been your husband for seventy thousand years, yet I never understood you." Xuan Nv slumped on the ground, laughing coldly, "Seventy thousand years, did you ever have me in your heart? Without me, could you have sat on this position of Winged Monarch and enjoyed supreme honor?"

Li Jing was lost in thought. Now that Xuan Nv had offended the divine Tribes and Green Hills, her crime was unforgivable. For the sake of the hard-won peace of the Wing Tribe, even though he was reluctant, Li Jing had to harden his heart and order Xuan Nv to be imprisoned in the Land of Extreme Cold, to be tortured later. Xuan Nv cried and begged for mercy.

Although for seventy thousand years Li Jing had never given Xuan Nv a single bit of genuine affection, she was still the wife he married. Today, he finally knew who A-Yin truly was, and Li Jing's heart was filled with emptiness. Xuan Nv was escorted to the Land of Extreme Cold dungeon, and there she unexpectedly discovered Li Yuan, who had been imprisoned for three hundred years.

Li Yuan saw the resentful Xuan Nv and an idea formed in his mind. He tempted Xuan Nv, "Can't you save yourself?" Xuan Nv was stunned by his words. After Ye Hua brought back Mo Yuan's immortal body and Bai Qian, Bai Qian had been resting in bed due to the depletion of her magic power.

Ye Hua did not inquire about Mo Yuan's matter, but upon seeing the face of High God Mo Yuan, Ye Hua couldn't help but feel a little sad. He returned to the Heavenly Palace and asked Lian Song about the depth of the master-disciple relationship between Mo Yuan and Si Yin seventy thousand years ago.

Lian Song thought for a moment and honestly told Ye Hua that the fact that Mo Yuan went to High Goddess Yao Guang's water prison late at night to rescue Si Yin, and fought High Goddess Yao Guang over Si Yin, showed that Mo Yuan truly cherished his young disciple from the bottom of his heart. Hearing this, Ye Hua felt a growing unease. "

Qian Qian, did you forget our love not because I took your eyes, but because the one you have been waiting for these seventy thousand years is High God Mo Yuan?" In the fox cave, Bai Qian had slept for a long time, her body had mostly recovered. When she woke up, she saw Bi Fang standing anxiously by her bed.

Seeing Bai Qian awake, the anxious look on his face slightly relaxed, and he softly asked, "Are you feeling better?" He even affectionately asked if she wanted some water. This Bi Fang was the mount of Bai Qian's fourth brother, and usually treated Bai Qian with indifference. Now, seeing him so enthusiastic by her bed, Bai Qian thought for a moment and realized.

This was not Bi Fang at all, but clearly her fourth brother who was taking advantage of her injury making her unable to distinguish illusion magic. Bai Qian chuckled inwardly, "Fourth Brother, stop messing around. You look exactly like Bi Fang, but your personality is too different. You didn't see how indifferent he usually is towards me." Bi Fang said with a complicated expression, "I haven't changed anything, I am truly Bi Fang.

High God Zhe Yan and the Crown Prince went to the West Sea to handle something. I was bored guarding the Peach Blossom Forest, so I came to see you." Bai Qian was stunned, thinking about how she had just foolishly told him to his face that he was indifferent. She awkwardly forced a smile and said, "You feathered creatures have always had cold personalities, unlike us beasts. Don't take it to heart."

Bi Fang's face showed no emotion, he just quietly watched Bai Qian. Suddenly, he leaned closer to the bed and said, "If I had been by your side that day, even if I had to sacrifice all my cultivation, I would never have let you get injured like this." Bai Qian awkwardly said, "That's natural. After all, we're from the same fox cave. If you ever have a fight with someone, I'll naturally go cheer him on too."

Bai Qian felt the intense gaze in Bi Fang's eyes and tried to avoid looking at him directly. Unexpectedly, Bi Fang said reproachfully, "Qian Qian, how long are you going to pretend to be foolish? You clearly know that I yearn for you, yet you deliberately say such things to anger me. Because you have a marriage contract with that Heavenly Tribe Crown Prince, I had to hide my sincere heart.

But that Crown Prince not only already has a consort, he can't even protect you adequately. How can I feel at ease entrusting you to him?" Just as Bai Qian didn't know how to respond to Bi Fang's heartfelt confession, Ye Hua walked in carrying a bowl of medicine. Seeing Bi Fang, Ye Hua didn't stop but completely ignored Bi Fang's presence and sat down next to Bai Qian.

Bai Qian deliberated for a long time before hesitantly saying, "I ultimately have a marriage contract with the Heavenly Tribe. I am a person who values propriety immensely, so I would absolutely not do anything that would embarrass both the Heavenly Tribe and Green Hills. You said you yearn for me, and I am happy about that. It's just that ultimately, we are destined to be without fate."

Bi Fang wanted to say more, but seeing Ye Hua's disdainful look and Bai Qian's clear words of rejection, Bi Fang left angrily. Bai Qian drank the medicine Ye Hua brought. After the scene that just occurred, Bai Qian felt the atmosphere was somewhat awkward, so she pretended to be weak and said to Ye Hua, "I'm still a little sleepy, you should go busy yourself. I'll sleep a bit longer." However, Ye Hua didn't intend to leave.

He turned his head and looked at Bai Qian, saying, "Do you know that every time you don't want me in front of you, you use the excuse of being sleepy?" Bai Qian was dizzy from the word "every time" and softly explained, "Wasn't this the first time I used it?" Ye Hua leaned in and embraced Bai Qian, his voice low and slow, "Qian Qian, were the things you just said truly from your heart?

You let me get this close to you, let me stay in Green Hills, is it truly just because of our marriage contract? If your marriage contract was with someone else, would you be like this too?" Bai Qian secretly pondered, isn't this obvious? If it wasn't for this marriage contract, he wouldn't have been able to take advantage of her repeatedly.

He would have been kicked out by Mi Gu the moment he entered Green Hills, let alone getting a fine guest room in the fox cave. But this Ye Hua usually maintained a calm and composed demeanor, yet now he was showing such vulnerability in front of her. Bai Qian tried hard to squeeze out a friendly smile and said, "Of course I'm not being good to you entirely because of the marriage contract.

Look, you're still reviewing official documents in the fox cave, and you're cooking for us. As the saying goes, giving begets receiving. If you throw me a peach, I naturally have to return a plum. Even if there's no plum, I have to substitute with a loquat first, right?" Bai Qian thought her words were quite fitting. Ye Hua suddenly moved his face closer to Bai Qian and said in a low voice, "I have never cooked for anyone else.

I have only cooked for you." Bai Qian cupped Ye Hua's face with both hands and exclaimed, "So cooking is your hobby! That's a great hobby. You should cook for your father, mother, and grandfather sometime. It really shows filial piety." Ye Hua ignored Bai Qian's comment and said, "I don't do these things because of the marriage contract. I didn't come to stay in Green Hills because A-Li missed you either. Qian Qian, I love you."

Before Bai Qian could react, Ye Hua already covered her lips with his. Bai Qian was shocked. What was happening today? Her thousand-year-old iron tree had blossomed into a twin flower the moment it bloomed. Bai Qian really didn't know how to respond to Ye Hua's deep affection. After a while, when Ye Hua had calmed down slightly, Bai Qian said, "You can't joke like this." Ye Hua smiled faintly and said he had never been more serious than now.

Bai Qian swallowed, saying, "My father and mother said that after a husband and wife have been together for a long time, those romantic things fade, and it slowly turns into family affection. Uh, look, should we just skip the middle part? Isn't it also quite good to be like family as we are now? You'll understand when you reach my age, these matters of love really don't hold much interest.

If I really marry you and become the Heavenly Consort in the future, I will definitely find you several young and beautiful consorts." To her surprise, upon hearing this, Ye Hua's expression turned pale. He stared into Bai Qian's eyes and asked, "Are you speaking from your heart?" Bai Qian composed herself and said earnestly, "Truly, truer than true gold." Ye Hua pondered sadly, and slowly said, "Are you saying these things specifically to make me feel bad?

Qian Qian, I only love you, and I will never fall in love with anyone else again." Bai Qian hadn't expected this Ye Hua to be such a serious person. After saying these words of affection, Ye Hua told Bai Qian that A-Li was fine and had been sent back to the Heavenly Palace.

He asked Bai Qian if she wanted to return to the Heavenly Palace with him, saying that the hot springs at Ling Bao Tian Zun's place were best for healing injuries. Bai Qian thought the hot springs were indeed a good thing, so she agreed to Ye Hua's proposal. Ye Hua returned to the Heavenly Palace and went to Yi Lan Fang Hua, instructing Nai Nai to clean up the room, as someone would be staying there tomorrow.

Looking at the sleeping A-Li, Ye Hua smiled faintly and said that A-Li would be especially happy to see her and wouldn't let her stay anywhere else. Nai Nai's heart felt heavy. For the past three hundred years, His Highness had never allowed anyone to step into Yi Lan Fang Hua, yet now, simply because that High Goddess was the future Heavenly Empress, she was treated so differently?

Nai Nai thought that Ye Hua had forgotten his Su Su, and her heart was filled with sorrow. Late at night, Bai Qian worried about Mo Yuan's immortal body, wondering if this ordeal had harmed it. She slowly walked to Yan Hua Cave. Facing Mo Yuan's immortal body, Bai Qian couldn't help but feel sad.

Zhe Yan had told her three hundred years ago that her master might wake up, but now three hundred years had passed, and her master was still lying there. Bai Qian thought that if her master could wake up, and their master and disciples could reunite in Kunlun Void, they would be so happy. Bai Qian bid farewell to her master and strolled in Green Hills. Seeing the scenery of Green Hills so pleasant, her mood lightened.

Bai Qian walked to the edge of the pond, took off her outer robe, and slowly entered the water. Ye Hua, who had come out of the fox cave looking for Bai Qian, happened to see this scene. Suddenly, the image of Su Su resolutely jumping from the Zhu Xian Terrace flashed into Ye Hua's mind, and the piercing pain once again swept over Ye Hua.

Ye Hua frantically used his magic to pull Bai Qian out of the water, held her tightly, and kissed her, as if afraid that if he let go, he would lose her again. Bai Qian exclaimed, "Ye Hua, what are you doing?" Ye Hua said in a trembling voice, "Qian Qian, I thought you were going to jump into the lake." Bai Qian explained that she was just hot and wanted to cool off in the water.

The two of them walked back towards the fox cave and happened to run into Zhe Yan and Bai Zhen returning from the West Sea. Zhe Yan was concerned about Bai Qian's injuries. As they talked, they discussed High Immortal Mo Yuan. Zhe Yan exclaimed, "So, little fifth, you've already told Ye Hua everything? You made us old immortals hide it for you."

Bai Qian looked at the expressionless Ye Hua and said, "That day, Xuan Nv stole Mo Yuan's immortal body, and it was Ye Hua who helped me get him back." The four of them returned to the cave together. Mi Gu ran in to report to his auntie that the Winged Monarch, Li Jing, was outside Green Hills requesting to see her. Hearing the name Li Jing again, Bai Qian's heart was already calm, even a little annoyed.

She went straight back into the cave, only telling Mi Gu, "Just send him away. I don't want to see him." Hearing this, Ye Hua couldn't help but show a faint smile on his lips.

Episode 38 Recap

Bai Qian returned to the fox cave to rest. Ye Hua came to find Zhe Yan, who anticipated he would come. Ye Hua directly asked if Bai Qian's several years of deep sleep after the battle with Qing Cang three hundred years ago was true, and if she had forgotten anything. Zhe Yan knew he could no longer hide it from Ye Hua.

He honestly told him that the matter of the deep sleep was false, and that Bai Qian did indeed forget something. She appeared in his Peach Blossom Forest covered in injuries the day Ye Hua jumped from the Zhu Xian Terrace. Ye Hua asked sadly if Bai Qian had mentioned what she wanted to forget before drinking the forgetfulness wine. Zhe Yan shook his head helplessly and said Bai Qian hadn't told him.

Zhe Yan pondered for a moment and told Ye Hua that the Su Su he saw in the Heavenly Palace should, upon reflection now, have been Bai Qian. Zhe Yan asked how Ye Hua recognized her as Su Su. Ye Hua told Zhe Yan that in the East Sea, many of Bai Qian's actions were too similar to Su Su's, and the mark of the Red Lotus Karmic Fire on her wrist further confirmed his guess.

Ye Hua timidly asked Zhe Yan if Bai Qian wanted to forget him because of Mo Yuan. Zhe Yan was speechless. Ye Hua thought to himself, compared to High God Mo Yuan, his love trial with Bai Qian back then was perhaps just a hindrance for Bai Qian ascending to High Goddess. Xuan Nv's situation in the dungeon was miserable. A guard, pitying Xuan Nv who was to be executed tomorrow, brought her a farewell meal.

Xuan Nv begged the guard to see her son. The guard told Xuan Nv that the Wing Lord had ordered the child thrown into the adjacent cell, and that this sick child would also be burned when she was executed tomorrow. The guard, seeing Xuan Nv's pitiful state, brought the child over. Unexpectedly, Xuan Nv took the opportunity to kill the guard, obtain the cell key, and vaguely found Li Yuan's location.

Li Yuan fiercely told Xuan Nv to kill him. Li Yuan told Xuan Nv about how for every one of the three of them who died, Qing Cang's power would increase by three tenths. He used Xuan Nv's hatred for Bai Qian to tell her that only Qing Cang could help Xuan Nv kill Bai Qian.

Li Yuan pointed out a small path for her to secretly go to the mortal realm to find Yan Zhi, and heartlessly told her to deceive Yan Zhi for pity, and kill her when she was unprepared, to help Qing Cang break the seal of the Donghuang Bell. Li Yuan told Xuan Nv he had a jade, which could guide her to Yan Zhi.

The jade would heat up when it was near Yan Zhi, so even if Xuan Nv could not see, she could find Yan Zhi. When Qing Cang returned to the Wing Tribe and learned that Li Jing had allied with the divine Tribes, he would definitely kill him for revenge. Xuan Nv finally pulled out her hairpin, killed Li Yuan, and took the jade. Qing Cang in the Donghuang Bell gained power from Li Yuan's death.

Qing Cang even fantasized that after he got out, he would make all beings in the Four Seas be buried with Li Yuan. The earth god guarding the shore saw the Donghuang Bell acting strangely and became worried and afraid. Xuan Nv, holding the sick child, stumbled along the way towards Green Hills. She wanted to go back and see her mother.

Xuan Nv worried her appearance would scare her mother, so she hid in the dark and dared not meet her. Xuan Nv's mother still resented Xuan Nv for betraying Green Hills, even saying she wished she had never given birth to her. Xuan Nv was heartbroken that her mother didn't recognize her, and this sadness transformed into deep-seated hatred for Bai Qian, making her determined to go to the mortal realm to find Yan Zhi.

When leaving Green Hills, Xuan Nv saw Li Jing guarding the entrance, waiting for Bai Qian. Xuan Nv hated Li Jing for having ordered her execution tomorrow, yet now waiting here for Bai Qian's pity. She decided she must go to the mortal realm to find and kill Yan Zhi.

The earth god rushed to the Heavenly Palace to find the Divine Monarch, but was told that the Divine Monarch had gone to the mortal realm for a trial and would likely return next month. The earth god had no choice but to return to the Donghuang Bell, only to find that its strange activity had stopped and it was as usual. The earth god was puzzled and wondered if he saw incorrectly.

Thinking that the Divine Monarch would be back in a little over twenty days, he decided to wait for the Divine Monarch to return before reporting everything. The Emperor (Dong Hua) and Bai Fengjiu went for a walk but encountered heavy rain. The two of them had to take shelter in a pavilion. The Emperor told the eunuchs to leave the umbrellas.

He heard Bai Fengjiu say that her father loved her mother very much, unwilling to let her mother's shoes and socks get wet on rainy days. The Emperor wanted to emulate Bai Fengjiu's father and give this love to Bai Fengjiu. The Emperor insisted on carrying Bai Fengjiu back on his back. The two huddled together under one umbrella in the rain. Their reflection in the rain was sweet and warm.

Bai Fengjiu on the Emperor's back was immersed in the sweet taste of love. The Emperor and Bai Fengjiu returned to the bedchamber. The Emperor asked with deep affection why he had favored her for so long yet Bai Fengjiu still had no child. Bai Fengjiu was extremely shy hearing this. Their relationship grew stronger. The concubines complained to the Empress that Consort Chen was monopolizing the Emperor's favor.

The Empress thought that back then the Emperor also built a temple for the Crown Prince's birth mother, and moreover, Consort Chen saved the Emperor's life, so her special treatment was reasonable. Bai Fengjiu was still immersed in her love with the Emperor. Si Ming came to find Bai Fengjiu and told her that since she has captured the Emperor's heart, she should find a way to torment this sincere heart.

Only then can she fulfill the Divine Monarch's requirement for descending to the mortal realm for a trial. Bai Fengjiu didn't expect her romance with the Divine Monarch to end so soon and felt extremely reluctant. Zi Lan is traveling in the mortal realm and unexpectedly meets Yan Zhi in a tavern.

Zi Lan thinks about how he has been searching for Si Yin in the mortal realm for so long without news, and Yan Zhi's brother Li Jing said he once met Si Yin. So, he decides to find a way to stay by Yan Zhi's side, maybe he can find a clue about Si Yin. Zi Lan racks his brains thinking about how to stay by Yan Zhi's side.

Just then, he happens to see someone harassing Yan Zhi and causing her trouble. Zi Lan takes this opportunity to play the hero and save the beauty. Thus, Zi Lan stays at Yan Zhi's small tavern. Bai Qian and Ye Hua are preparing to go to the Nine Heavens. As they reach the entrance of Green Hills, they find Li Jing is still waiting.

Ye Hua goes ahead to wait for her, leaving the two of them to have a complete break. Li Jing quickly walks forward, takes out the Jade Soul, and wants to give it to Bai Qian. He frankly admits that it was a momentary lapse of judgment on his part, and now he wants to compensate with this Jade Soul, so Bai Qian wouldn't need her heart's blood.

Bai Qian laughs coldly and says that Mo Yuan's immortal body no longer needs her heart's blood. Bai Qian tells Li Jing that back then she did give him her whole heart, even thinking about how to persuade her parents to marry her to him. But unexpectedly, when her feelings were strongest, Li Jing met secretly with Xuan Nv, which struck her hard.

Later, when her master passed away, she forced herself with a humble heart to beg him for the Jade Soul. But Li Jing will never understand how much courage she mustered then, and how much disappointment he, Li Jing, gave her.

Episode 39 Recap

Bai Qian and Li Jing met at the entrance of Green Hills. Bai Qian decided to make a complete break with Li Jing. Li Jing frankly admitted that he was jealous of Mo Yuan at the time, but he truly did not know that Bai Qian was severely injured when she came to him asking for the Jade Soul that day. He knelt and pleaded with Bai Qian to forgive him.

Bai Qian shook off Li Jing's hand, stared at him coldly, and said, "You have only pursued what you could not get your entire life. If you get it, you no longer cherish it." Li Jing asked mournfully, "When she knew about me and Xuan Nv, she let go so easily. Did Bai Qian never love me?"

Bai Qian also told Li Jing that he was indeed the only man she had ever loved in her 140,000 years, but things had changed, and everything could not go back. With that, Bai Qian left gracefully, leaving Li Jing, who had lost hope of love. From then on, Si Yin's past was no longer remembered. Zhe Yan arrived at the fox cave and found that both Bai Qian and Ye Hua were gone.

Mi Gu told Zhe Yan that Ye Hua had taken Bai Qian to the Heavenly Palace because the Lingbao Celestial Master's hot springs were excellent for her recovery. Zhe Yan went to Yan Hua Cave to visit Mo Yuan and instructed Mi Gu not to reveal to anyone that he had visited Mo Yuan. When Bai Zhen returned, Zhe Yan told him that he had thought of a way to save the First Prince of West Sea.

Bai Zhen was overjoyed and urged Zhe Yan to quickly return to the Peach Blossom Forest to study the method of saving him. Zhe Yan came to Kunlun Void. It had been deserted since Mo Yuan's passing, but now there was dragon energy floating in the mountains. Zhe Yan mused that his guess was indeed correct. Ye Hua brought Bai Qian to Xi Wu Palace.

Bai Qian, tapping her fan, teased Ye Hua, saying, "This grand Heavenly Palace doesn't even have a guard at the door." Ye Hua furrowed his brow and said, "The Grand Supreme Elder is holding a Dharma assembly today, so everyone has probably gone there. The Elder has been speaking in the heavens for so many years without an equal. Qianqian, this time you're in heaven, it's a good chance to debate with him."

Bai Qian laughed awkwardly and said, "Easier said than done, easier said than done." As they spoke, the two of them arrived at the entrance of Xi Wu Palace. Bai Qian found it very strange that Xi Wu Palace was so dim. Ye Hua said it was because her eyes couldn't see strong light. Bai Qian was inwardly surprised, realizing that Ye Hua cared for her so much, even noticing her eye condition and taking careful consideration of her needs.

Bai Qian felt a stirring in her heart. After speaking, Ye Hua actually jumped over the wall carrying Bai Qian. Ye Hua explained to Bai Qian that he didn't want to disturb the people in the courtyard, as it would be troublesome. Bai Qian teased Ye Hua, asking if he had finished reading all the documents that had piled up in the past few days.

Unexpectedly, the usually mature and steady Ye Hua showed the awkward look only a young man would have. Bai Qian waved her fan, feeling very happy. Bai Qian suggested that she would stay in A-Li's Qing Yun Palace for the next few days. Ye Hua told Bai Qian that he had already prepared a bedchamber for her. Bai Qian wanted to ask Ye Hua about her master, but Ye Hua stated directly that outsiders would not know.

Ye Hua took Bai Qian to Yi Lan Fang Hua. As soon as she entered, Bai Qian saw a courtyard full of peach trees and peach blossoms. Looking in from the outside, her eyes were filled with the color of peach blossoms. Bai Qian exclaimed, "I didn't expect to find such beautiful peach blossoms in the Nine Heavens!"

Ye Hua's expression stiffened slightly, and he told Bai Qian that he had planted these trees three hundred years ago, and this was the first time they bloomed. Bai Qian laughed at his patience. For some reason, Bai Qian felt an indescribable discomfort in her heart ever since she entered Yi Lan Fang Hua. Nai Nai came to serve tea to the High Goddess. Seeing Bai Qian's appearance, she knelt down excitedly and exclaimed, "Mistress, it really is you!

Nai Nai has waited for you for three hundred years!" Bai Qian knew from Nai Nai's address that this person, like A-Li, had mistaken her for someone else. She couldn't bear to say that she was not the mistress she spoke of. Nai Nai looked at Bai Qian, who was identical to Su Su, but her demeanor and presence were completely different from Su Su's.

Ye Hua told Nai Nai to prepare the things Bai Qian would need for the Lingbao Celestial Master's hot springs. Nai Nai was picking peach blossoms in the courtyard. Bai Qian asked Nai Nai if their Divine Monarch liked peach blossoms so much. Nai Nai said that their Divine Monarch had planted these peach blossoms after their mistress passed away. A-Li, led by Ye Hua, entered the courtyard and immediately called out, "Mother, Mother!"

Nai Nai was so startled that she dropped the vase on the ground. Bai Qian thought that this young immortal attendant must have watched her mistress pass away and now saw her, the stepmother, getting all the benefits, and surely felt pity. A-Li wanted a hug from his mother. Bai Qian had been injured recently, so she told A-Li to go get a hug from his father.

A-Li thought about it and said he understood, his mother wasn't hugging him because she had a baby. Nai Nai, standing aside, said to A-Li, "Even if the High Goddess has a baby, Little Prince, what are you blushing about?" A-Li happily said that in that case, he wouldn't be the youngest in the Heavenly Palace anymore.

Ye Hua took the opportunity to walk closer to Bai Qian and asked, "After we get married, why don't we have another child right away?" Bai Qian didn't dodge or flinch and said with a modest expression, "If you give birth then, I would be very happy to." Bai Qian suggested that since A-Li was here now, they might as well go to the Lingbao Celestial Master's hot springs together, as she had come up specifically for the hot springs.

Ye Hua took A-Li and Bai Qian to the Heavenly Springs. Fruit wine was prepared by the side of the pool. Ye Hua instructed Bai Qian that if A-Li wanted to drink, she could give him a little, but he absolutely must not drink too much. Ye Hua took the fan that Zhe Yan had given Bai Qian and returned to the study to inscribe words on it.

Ye Hua was certain in his heart that whether it was self-deception on his part or Bai Qian's skill at hiding things, she was the only woman he had ever loved in this life. Ye Hua was willing to wait, wait for Bai Qian to forget Mo Yuan and truly fall in love with him. Su jin summoned Miu Qing and gave her a bowl of tonic soup, and also gave her an aphrodisiac.

Su jin enticed Miu Qing, saying that with Ye Hua's return to the Heavenly Palace today, this was her only chance to remain in Xi Wu Palace. Bai Qian gave A-Li some fruit wine. Unexpectedly, after a few sips, A-Li became completely drunk and fell unconscious, his body burning hot. Nai Nai worried and wanted to take him to the Medicine King to be checked. Bai Qian said dismissively, "I've been drinking for tens of thousands of years.

A-Li is a boy, it's fine for him to drink a little." Bai Qian told Nai Nai to carry A-Li back and he would wake up in three hours. Nai Nai had no choice but to obey Bai Qian's instructions. Miu Qing brought the tonic soup to the study to find Ye Hua.

Miu Qing told Ye Hua that she was about to return to the East Sea and requested that he drink the tonic soup she had personally made, as a way to end their connection. Ye Hua said lightly that he and Miu Qing had no connection. Ye Hua did not drink the tonic soup. Instead, he asked Miu Qing a few questions.

He mentioned that when Dong Hua was undergoing his trial, Bai Qian's powers were sealed by him, and someone actually pushed the High Goddess Bai Qian into the lake, nearly drowning her. He questioned if she knew what crime it was to frame a High Goddess, and also asked what was put in the tonic soup. Miu Qing claimed in a panic that she had bought it from the mortal realm.

Su jin arrived at the right moment, pretending to plead for Miu Qing. Bai Qian arrived outside the study and heard the sound of a woman crying inside. She thought it was Ye Hua flirting with an immortal attendant in the private chambers. Thinking that Ye Hua was young and virile, constantly dealing with dry official documents day and night, it was understandable that he might engage in flirtatious matters when feeling bored and seeing a beautiful young immortal attendant.

With these thoughts, Bai Qian was about to quietly leave but was called in by Ye Hua. She saw Su jin and Miu Qing kneeling on the ground. Su jin looked up and saw Bai Qian. Bai Qian was looking at those eyes and felt instinctively that they were good eyes, but the person did not deserve them. Su jin was truly startled to see Bai Qian's face, which was identical to Su Su's.

Miu Qing knelt and pleaded with Bai Qian not to let the Divine Monarch send her back to the East Sea. Bai Qian sighed and said to Ye Hua, "This matter is not entirely Miu Qing's fault. Since you knew Miu Qing had feelings for you, you still brought her to heaven. Although you did it to repay her for saving A-Li, Miu Qing might not see it that way.

You gave her hope, but you delayed acting, so naturally, she took the initiative." Bai Qian told Miu Qing, "Listen to this old one's advice, just go back to the East Sea." While Miu Qing was still stunned, Bai Qian grabbed her fan and quickly slipped away. Ye Hua told the two who were kneeling, "Bai Qian is my wife, and also the only mistress of Xi Wu Palace."

Episode 40 Recap

Ye Hua finished admonishing Su jin and Miu Qing in the study and went out to look for Bai Qian. Bai Qian was already a High Goddess who easily got lost, and Xi Wu Palace was so large that she was having a headache not knowing which direction to go to get back to Yi Lan Fang Hua. Ye Hua gently embraced Bai Qian from behind and took her back to Yi Lan Fang Hua with him.

Miu Qing and Su jin were still kneeling in the study. Miu Qing tearfully asked Su jin if she had told her to do it. Su jin unexpectedly retorted that she pitied Miu Qing's feelings for the Divine Monarch, but she had put her (Su jin) in an unrighteous position. Su jin had already been terrified by Bai Qian's appearance, which was remarkably similar to Su Su's.

She had no mind to care about Miu Qing and stumbled back to her bedchamber in a daze. Trembling, she told Xin Nu that she finally knew why Ye Hua was so infatuated with that Bai Qian; that Bai Qian of Green Hills looked just like Su Su. Su jin was already scared out of her wits. Ye Hua and Bai Qian walked together.

Ye Hua suddenly asked Bai Qian seriously why she had told Miu Qing to return to the East Sea. Bai Qian thought Ye Hua was angry that she had driven away his romantic interest and quickly explained that she hadn't forgotten her promise to find him several secondary consorts. However, since Miu Qing dared to give Ye Hua an aphrodisiac today, who knew what she might do in the future?

Bai Qian pleasingly asked Ye Hua if he agreed that it was better for the harem to be quiet. Ye Hua stared intently into Bai Qian's eyes, his gaze filled with sorrow and disappointment. He slowly said, "I shouldn't have asked you this. I called you into the room earlier, intentionally wanting to make you jealous. But I didn't expect you to treat it like a show from beginning to end."

Ye Hua stepped closer to Bai Qian, his heart feeling crushed, and asked, "Bai Qian, has there only ever been that one person in your heart? How long do you plan to wait for him?" With these words, Ye Hua left in a huff. Bai Qian returned to Yi Lan Fang Hua by herself.

After all that commotion, she was originally feeling tired and sleepy, but for some reason, as she lay on the bed, Ye Hua's words kept replaying in her mind, gripping her heart repeatedly. Bai Qian didn't know when she had started caring so much about Ye Hua's emotions. Li Jing returned to the Wing Tribe's realm in a daze from Green Hills. Unconsciously, he walked to the place where he and Si Yin had first met.

Distraught, Li Jing seemed to see Si Yin smiling sweetly in the lotus pond and immediately jumped into it. The icy water finally brought Li Jing back to his senses. Si Yin, the woman he deeply loved, would likely never return for all eternity. In despair, Li Jing thought it would be fine to just die in the lake. But he wasn't just Li Jing anymore; he was also the Winged Monarch, the king of these millions of people.

Thinking of this, Li Jing had no choice but to return to the shore and walk back to Da Zi Ming Palace, utterly exhausted. As soon as Li Jing entered Da Zi Ming Palace, he received news that Xuan Nv had escaped from prison and Li Yuan had been killed. He quickly rushed to the dungeon to check and found that Li Yuan had been dead for a long time.

Li Jing knew that Li Yuan intended to use his death to help Qing Cang break the seal. He immediately ordered someone to quickly find Yan Zhi in the mortal realm and bring her back to the Wing Tribe's realm. If they encountered Xuan Nv on the way, Li Jing said with cold light in his eyes, "No need to report back, kill her on sight."

Li Jing ordered someone to cut off Li Yuan's head, burn his body, and hang the head in Da Zi Ming Palace for public display. His subordinates worried that since Li Yuan was once the eldest prince of the Wing Tribe, doing this now might cause dissatisfaction among the soldiers. Li Jing coldly said, "His death will once again bring destruction upon the Wing Tribe and even the world. Doing this is already an act of benevolence."

Xuan Nv struggled and spent her days hiding in the mortal realm from the Wing Tribe's pursuit. Suddenly, the jade pendant Li Yuan had given her began to feel slightly warm. Xuan Nv knew she was close to Yan Zhi. Guided by the jade pendant, Xuan Nv groped her way to the entrance of Yan Zhi's small shop. By chance, Zi Lan met her there.

Xuan Nv's face was disfigured, and for a moment, Zi Lan didn't recognize her as Xuan Nv. Xuan Nv described Yan Zhi's appearance to Zi Lan and begged him to tell her if there was such a girl nearby. With a heart of compassion, Zi Lan brought Xuan Nv to Yan Zhi. The jade in Xuan Nv's hand was burning hot. She secretly laughed to herself, thinking the person before her must be Yan Zhi. Xuan Nv stated her identity.

Yan Zhi couldn't believe that the person before her, with a ruined face and blind eyes, was actually her second sister-in-law. Zi Lan was also greatly surprised, wondering when Xuan Nv had changed into this appearance. Worried that Xuan Nv might recognize him, Zi Lan left them to talk alone and went out to attend to the customers in the shop.

Yan Zhi held the child in Xuan Nv's arms and was startled to find that the child neither cried nor fussed and had no breath. But Xuan Nv very seriously told Yan Zhi that she could definitely bring the child back to life if she knew the method. Seeing her second sister-in-law in this state, Yan Zhi felt much pity. Yan Zhi used her cultivation to treat Xuan Nv's eyes, but unexpectedly, the ordinary wounds wouldn't heal at all.

She was very puzzled. It turned out to be Zi Lan. He was worried that if Yan Zhi healed Xuan Nv's eyes, Xuan Nv would surely recognize him. He had no choice but to resort to this tactic, hiding outside and using immortal magic to prevent Xuan Nv's eyes from recovering. Yan Zhi quickly comforted Xuan Nv, telling her that she would find another way another day and would eventually heal her eyes.

Yan Zhi then inquired about what had happened in the Wing Tribe's realm. Xuan Nv immediately put on a pitiful facade and fabricated the story that Li Jing had killed Li Yuan, cut off his head to warn everyone, and burned his body to ashes. Yan Zhi was shocked and heartbroken upon hearing that her eldest brother had been executed. Fengjiu went to the imperial study to bring soup to the Emperor.

Seeing the Emperor reading at his desk, Fengjiu couldn't help but lose herself in thought. She thought about how over a decade in the mortal realm had passed in the blink of an eye. If she returned to the Nine Heavens in the future, would the Divine Monarch blame her for affecting his trial in the mortal realm?

Fengjiu silently watched the Emperor, knowing in her heart that she couldn't bring herself to hurt him, even if this was the emotional trial the Divine Monarch was undergoing himself. Suddenly, Si Ming's voice entered Fengjiu's mind, telling her that even if she couldn't bear to, she had to let go. Fengjiu was startled and accidentally dropped the tonic soup, shattering it on the ground. The Emperor frowned, looking at the flustered Fengjiu.

Afraid that the Emperor would see through her thoughts, Fengjiu hurriedly left the study and met Si Ming, who had come looking for her. Si Ming gave Fengjiu a script about harem infighting and instructed her to make the Emperor utterly hate the woman named Consort Chen, so that the Divine Monarch's trial would be successfully completed. Fengjiu still couldn't bring herself to do it.

Si Ming sighed, saying, "Although Your Highness's nature is very suitable to be by the Divine Monarch's side, the Divine Monarch and you are ultimately fated to be apart." Fengjiu knew that the icy Divine Monarch in the Nine Heavens naturally didn't have her in his heart, but the Emperor in the mortal realm cherished her dearly. How could she bear to hurt him?

Si Ming told Fengjiu to follow what was written in the script: because she had no children, she harbored resentment towards the crown prince's birth mother, the noble consort in the Taoist temple. She was to go to the temple today to see the noble consort, ask for a cup of tea to drink, and upon returning, pretend to have been poisoned to gain the Emperor's sympathy. Then, she could take the opportunity to frame the noble consort.

Fengjiu followed Si Ming's instructions and went to the Taoist temple to see the noble consort. The noble consort was very kind and treated Fengjiu with genuine sincerity. Fengjiu couldn't bear to do it, but she also couldn't think of a better way. A eunuch hurried back to report to the Emperor, saying that Consort Chen seemed to be poisoned and had fainted several times.

He said this had been the case since she returned from visiting the noble consort at the Taoist temple. The Emperor was greatly alarmed and went to Fengjiu with a heavy heart. The Emperor saw Fengjiu weak in bed, his eyes full of heartache. Fengjiu nestled in the Emperor's arms, feeling remorse. That noble consort was intent on doing good; how could she intentionally frame her? This was truly contrary to Bai Qian's usual teachings to her.

The Emperor intended to test Fengjiu to see if this matter was related to the noble consort. Fengjiu made up her mind and directly said that she had accidentally caught a cold and it had nothing to do with the noble consort. When the Emperor heard Fengjiu's words, the worry he had carried all the way there finally dissipated.

Only then did Fengjiu realize that even though she had no intention of framing the noble consort, the Emperor naturally trusted the noble consort's character. If she had really followed the script and used her weakness to frame the noble consort just now, she didn't know what the Emperor would have thought of her.

The Emperor affectionately told Fengjiu that she was the person he loved most, and that no matter when or what mistake Fengjiu made, he would love her, protect her, and trust her. Fengjiu was touched, her heart filled with overflowing love. That evening, Si Ming came to find Fengjiu and asked what had happened during the day. Fengjiu requested two more years to spend with the Emperor, with a two-year limit.

She promised that by then she would definitely help the Divine Monarch complete his trial. It was just that she couldn't bring herself to do anything to hurt the Divine Monarch right now. Seeing Fengjiu so infatuated, Si Ming finally couldn't bear it and agreed to the two-year promise. The night was quiet. Yan Zhi had gone to bed early. Xuan Nv appeared in Yan Zhi's room.

Although Yan Zhi had taken her in, Xuan Nv also felt reluctant to kill her, as she was the only person in the Wing Tribe's realm who had ever treated her with sincerity. However, whenever she recalled the humiliation Bai Qian had brought upon her, Xuan Nv's heart was filled only with deep hatred. Xuan Nv steeled her heart and raised the dagger in her hand. At the critical moment, Zi Lan appeared in time and took Xuan Nv away.

Xuan Nv finally recognized Zi Lan's voice. Zi Lan warned Xuan Nv that if she dared to do anything to harm Yan Zhi again, he would make sure she knew the price she had to pay for betraying Kunlun Void and causing Mo Yuan's death.

Episode 41 Recap

Zhe Yan confirmed what he had suspected in Kunlun Void. He immediately decided to go to the West Sea again. He specifically summoned his Bi Fang bird and hurriedly rushed towards the West Sea. Bai Qian tossed and turned all night. Just as she finally managed to fall asleep, she was woken up early by Nai Nai. It turned out that after A'Li drank fruit wine yesterday, Nai Nai had followed Bai Qian's instructions and brought him back.

Three times three hours had passed, but A'Li still showed no signs of waking up, and his little face was getting redder and redder. In the morning, Nai Nai was utterly flustered and brought A'Li to find Bai Qian. Bai Qian felt A'Li's pulse and knew that she had overestimated the little one's alcohol tolerance. A normal child would certainly wake up after three hours having drunk that amount of fruit wine.

Unexpectedly, A'Li's alcohol tolerance was so low; he might not wake up until tomorrow morning. Bai Qian explained to Nai Nai that his little face being red now indicated that the effects of the alcohol are gradually showing. She comforted Nai Nai and told her not to worry. Bai Qian saw that Nai Nai had been watching over A'Li since they returned yesterday and likely hadn't rested for even a moment.

Bai Qian sighed, thinking that Nai Nai truly was a loyal celestial maid. She told Nai Nai to go and rest, saying that the little one could stay with her for now. Tomorrow, she could cook a bowl of thick porridge for the little one to drink. Bai Qian looked at the sleeping little A'Li and sighed inwardly, thinking how difficult it must have been for Ye Hua to be both father and mother for hundreds of years.

The next day, Nai Nai brought the porridge. Although A'Li hadn't woken up, his body was no longer burning hot, and his little face gradually returned to its normal color. Only then did Nai Nai feel relieved. Ling Bao Tian Zun sent someone to take Bai Qian to the hot springs for healing. Bai Qian told Nai Nai to look after A'Li while she went to the celestial springs.

Just as Bai Qian had left Yi Lan Fang Hua, Su jin stepped in shortly after. Although she feared Bai Qian, in order to keep her position as side consort, she needed to know her opponent. Su jin claimed she was guided by immortal energy to Yi Lan Fang Hua and specifically came to pay respects to Aunt Bai Qian.

Every time Nai Nai saw Su jin, she would recall how Su Su had been framed by her and jumped off the Immortal Executing Platform. Her heart was full of resistance towards Su jin. Moreover, Ye Hua had specifically ordered her not to let Su jin get within half a step of Yi Lan Fang Hua or A'Li.

Nai Nai did her best to prevent Su jin from entering Yi Lan Fang Hua and even told her that her aunt had gone to the Shang Qing Realm and was not in the chambers at the moment. Su jin only knew that Ling Bao Tian Zun had closed the Shang Qing Realm for a long time. Now, for Bai Qian, Ye Hua had even reopened the celestial springs for her, making Su jin's jealousy even stronger.

Bai Qian was walking along the path when she saw two little celestial maids from some palace ahead, whispering to each other about something. It would have been better if Bai Qian hadn't heard, but she stopped and listened carefully, only to find they were gossiping about her. These two little celestial maids, who didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth, were from Su jin's palace.

They were complaining on behalf of their mistress, saying one after another that Bai Qian was already 140,000 years old, so wasn't she an old woman? And their Mistress Su jin was kind and generous, so they feared she would suffer once Bai Qian became the mistress of Xi Wu Palace. Although Bai Qian wasn't truly angry when she heard this, being called an old woman truly touched upon her greatest taboo.

Bai Qian calmly told her attendant that the most forbidden thing in the Celestial Palace was to gossip about High Gods behind their backs. It seemed these two celestial maids were not fit to stay in the Celestial Palace. She ordered someone to dismiss the two celestial maids. This finally made her feel better, but her mood for soaking in the hot springs had been spoiled. A'Li wasn't with her either, so it was mostly boring.

Bai Qian returned to Yi Lan Fang Hua, wanting to find some books to entertain herself while soaking in the hot springs. Ye Hua went to Yi Lan Fang Hua and felt A'Li's pulse, only to discover he was still drunk and hadn't woken up. He hurriedly carried A'Li and went to find the Medicine King. At the entrance, he bumped into Bai Qian who was returning. Ye Hua urgently asked Bai Qian if she had given A'Li alcohol.

He had been drunk for so long and hadn't woken up; why didn't she find the Medicine King or tell him? Bai Qian felt that a child getting drunk was really not a big deal. She told Ye Hua that A'Li was just a child and why was he so nervous? When she was a child and secretly drank Zhe Yan's wine, sleeping for four or five days was perfectly normal.

As she spoke, Bai Qian added, "Ye Hua, you spoil A'Li so much. When he grows up, he'll turn effeminate." Ye Hua was already anxious with worry for A'Li. Seeing Bai Qian's calm and seemingly indifferent attitude, he immediately became angry. Without thinking, he retorted, "You didn't raise A'Li. You only see him as a stepson. If he were your own son, would you still say such a thing?"

Feeling deeply wronged by Ye Hua's accusation, Bai Qian also spoke angrily, retort for retort, "This old woman naturally cannot give birth to such a lovable and pleasing child as A'Li. That fierce woman who gave birth to A'Li has already jumped off the Immortal Executing Platform. I remember your side consort, Lord Ye Hua, is gentle and virtuous. Why not send A'Li to her to raise, lest he suffer while with me?"

Ye Hua fell silent for a moment, looked at Bai Qian, and quietly said, "You don't need to anger me with these words. You know I don't mean that." After speaking, he hurriedly carried A'Li to the Medicine King's place. Nai Nai came back from fetching water in the backyard and found A'Li missing. She thought Su jin had taken him and rushed out frantically to search. She happened to bump into Bai Qian, who was feeling wronged.

Bai Qian comforted her, saying that if Su jin had really taken him, she would have snatched him back long ago. A'Li had been taken by Ye Hua to find the Medicine King. Only then did Nai Nai calm down. Bai Qian heard how much Nai Nai feared Su jin and thought there must be some unknown past between Su jin and A'Li's birth mother back then.

She wanted to ask Nai Nai about it, but Nai Nai awkwardly said that the Heavenly Monarch had explicitly forbidden anyone in the Celestial Palace from discussing this matter. Bai Qian didn't want to make things difficult for Nai Nai and dropped the matter. Ye Hua took A'Li to the Medicine King. The Medicine King told the Divine Monarch not to worry; A'Li was just drunk and needed to soak in a sobering bath. He would wake up before dusk.

Ye Hua's heart, which had been hanging, finally settled. Lian Song knew Ye Hua had rushed out of Yi Lan Fang Hua holding A'Li and thought something had happened to A'Li. He also rushed over in a panic. Only when he learned that A'Li was just drunk did he relax. He just saw Ye Hua with a dark face, looking troubled. In the main hall, the Heavenly Monarch asked Si Ming how the Divine Monarch's trial was progressing.

Si Ming calculated and said that at this time, the Divine Monarch in the mortal realm was on an outing and was about to be assassinated and meet with misfortune. The Heavenly Monarch and the others laughed, saying this fate was well-written. The Divine Monarch, as the co-ruler of Heaven and Earth, had never been defeated before. Now was a good time for him to experience what it felt like to be assassinated.

Si Ming was still faintly worried about Fengjiu in his heart, thinking, "Little Highness, you must be careful." On a stormy night, danger lurked in the darkness. The Emperor and Fengjiu were surrounded by assassins. Although the Emperor had extraordinary martial skills, he was still hard to resist the overwhelming numbers. In a moment of peril, Fengjiu blocked an arrow for the Emperor, but she herself was severely injured. The Emperor finally escaped with Fengjiu to a dilapidated thatched hut.

Fengjiu told the Emperor in a weak voice that she had been taught by her aunt back home since she was young that even a woman must not fear death and must protect the people she needs to protect. The Emperor gently stroked Fengjiu's face and firmly told her that she was the person he needed to protect. The assassins pursued them into the thatched hut.

In her unconscious state, Fengjiu faintly saw the Emperor fighting the assassins before she lost consciousness. The Emperor carried Fengjiu and rushed into the city to find a physician. Yan Zhi happened to meet them and took the two back to her home. Fengjiu was extremely weak from the arrow wound. Yan Zhi asked the Emperor to wait outside while she treated Fengjiu's wound. Xuan Nv, using invisibility, entered the room.

She could smell that the person on the bed was of the Nine-Tailed White Fox Tribe. Based on Yan Zhi's description of the phoenix-tail flower mark on her forehead, she confirmed this was Bai Fengjiu. Xuan Nv was overjoyed and moved to use Fengjiu's body to wake up her son. Yan Zhi tried her best to stop Xuan Nv from using such an ancient forbidden art. Xuan Nv had lost her mind.

Yan Zhi had no choice but to tell Xuan Nv that if she could obtain the divine Tribes' sacred object, the divine zhi grass, and then transfer her cultivation to him, she could definitely make her second brother's child wake up. Zi Lan transmitted his voice to Xuan Nv, telling her he was right outside, and if she dared to do anything evil, he would not let her get away with it.

Xuan Nv had no choice but to give up. Yan Zhi finished treating Fengjiu. She told the Emperor to go in and see his consort. Yan Zhi sat down and chatted with Zi Lan, thinking that she would have to go to Dong Ying to find the divine zhi grass for Xuan Nv in the future. Yan Zhi told Zi Lan that she was going to move.

Zi Lan no longer knew if he wanted to stay by Yan Zhi's side to find Si Yin's whereabouts, or if he simply wanted to stay by Yan Zhi's side. Zi Lan told Yan Zhi that anyway, he had no father or mother, so no matter where she went, he would be by her side, accompanying her. The Emperor brought Fengjiu back to the palace. When Fengjiu woke up, the Emperor showed her a small box.

Inside the box was the arrowhead Fengjiu had blocked for him that night. The Emperor told Fengjiu that he would keep this object for a lifetime. Nai Nai returned from Ye Hua's place and reported to Bai Qian that A'Li had woken up. Bai Qian was also very concerned about A'Li in her heart, so she went herself to Zi Chen Hall to visit A'Li. In Zi Chen Hall, Le Xu and Su jin were both looking after A'Li.

Le Xu couldn't help but complain about Bai Qian seeing A'Li drunk. After all, she was a woman who hadn't given birth to children and didn't know at all how to look after little children. Ye Hua explained on behalf of Bai Qian that she had not done it intentionally. Le Xu heard Su jin say that High Goddess Bai Qian looked remarkably similar to A'Li's birth mother, which made her feel uneasy instead.

Episode 42 Recap

Madame Le Xu was taking care of A'Li in Zichen Hall. Hearing Su jin say that High Goddess Bai Qian looked exactly like Su Su, she worriedly asked Ye Hua if he was treating her as Su Su. Ye Hua told his imperial mother word for word that Bai Qian was his wife, and he had never treated her as anyone else. Madame Le Xu felt relieved upon hearing Ye Hua say this.

Bai Qian came to Zichen Hall wanting to see A'Li, but was told that Madame Le Xu was also there. Bai Qian thought she had come at an inconvenient time and left. As she was leaving, she happened to see Madame Le Xu and Su jin coming out of Zichen Hall chatting and laughing, looking like a harmonious mother-in-law and daughter-in-law pair. Bai Qian decided it was better not to show herself.

Zhe Yan was in the West Sea treating the First Prince. Bai Zhen came to the West Sea looking for him and saw Die Feng guarding the palace entrance. Upon entering the First Prince's chamber, Bai Zhen saw Zhe Yan attending to the First Prince with a serious expression.

Zhe Yan told the West Sea Water God and Die Feng that he had a way to save the First Prince and would leave for a few hours to bring back an envoy to help the First Prince recover. The Water God and Die Feng were deeply grateful for Zhe Yan's life-saving grace. After everyone withdrew, Bai Zhen told Zhe Yan that the First Prince's illness was very strange, but he couldn't say why.

Zhe Yan looked meaningfully at the First Prince on the sickbed and slowly said, "Father God's legitimate son, Mo Yuan, the God of War of the four seas and eight wildernesses, is being nourished by a trace of immortal energy from this First Prince." Bai Zhen was very surprised. Zhe Yan couldn't help but sigh inwardly, 'Mo Yuan, do you know that for the past seventy thousand years your disciples have been scattered everywhere searching for traces of you?

Do you know that your little seventeenth disciple has nourished you with her heart's blood for seventy thousand years? Now, you are truly coming back.' At this moment on Kunlun Void, Mo Yuan's war sword surprisingly broke out of its box as if summoned, flashing with dazzling golden light. In the Celestial Palace, Ye Hua was sitting quietly writing. Suddenly, he felt an unbearable pain in his chest, a sensation like his soul being torn apart and reassembled.

It would be many years later before Ye Hua understood the reason for this inexplicable pain. Bai Qian returned to Yi Lan Fang Hua and fell asleep on her bed. In her dream, she was on the battlefield of the great war against the Ghost Tribe seventy thousand years ago. As Si Yin, Bai Qian watched as her Ninth Senior Brother fell right before her eyes.

Her most beloved master left behind the words 'Wait for me' and then resolutely sealed the Donghuang Bell with his primordial spirit. Waking from the dream, Bai Qian's heart was still aching faintly. She thought it had been a long time since she had dreamt of that great war. Why was she dreaming of it today? Zhe Yan and Bai Zhen settled the First Prince. Zhe Yan was about to go to the Celestial Palace to bring Bai Qian back.

Bai Zhen stopped Zhe Yan, a worried look on his face. He said, "Now Ye Hua and Bai Qian have this marriage agreement. Even though Mo Yuan is Bai Qian's master, if Ye Hua knows his wife is putting in such effort for another man, what will he think?" Zhe Yan thought this was indeed the case. It seemed necessary for him to see Ye Hua before going to find Little Fifth (Bai Qian).

Zhe Yan came to the Celestial Palace and found Ye Hua. He directly stated that Mo Yuan was about to wake up. Ye Hua was shocked by this news but maintained his usual cold expression. Zhe Yan thought of Bai Qian and specifically asked Ye Hua if there was anything he wanted to ask him. Ye Hua lowered his head and said, "No." Although Zhe Yan wasn't particularly close to Ye Hua, he understood Ye Hua's restrained nature.

Zhe Yan suddenly recalled the scene when he took Bai Qian to Kunlun Void to become Mo Yuan's disciple. At that time, Bai Qian felt that Mo Yuan wasn't like the majestic God of War she had imagined and dared to say directly to Mo Yuan's face that her master looked just like the pale-faced scholar from mortal realm storybooks. Zhe Yan asked Ye Hua if he had ever thought that he was Mo Yuan.

Ye Hua replied without hesitation, "No." Zhe Yan chuckled, saying that he himself had once mistaken them and was still in a daze even after seeing Ye Hua's primordial spirit with his own eyes yesterday. After telling Ye Hua these things, Zhe Yan felt he should go and tell Bai Qian this news that she had waited seventy thousand years for. Ye Hua's voice suddenly came from behind. "

Is there any way to make High God Mo Yuan wake up sooner?" Zhe Yan was puzzled. He originally thought that even if Ye Hua didn't wish Mo Yuan wouldn't wake up, he wouldn't wish for him to wake up so soon, after all, that was the other person Bai Qian cared deeply about. Ye Hua looked at Zhe Yan and said word by word, "This is Qianqian's heartfelt wish for seventy thousand years.

The sooner Mo Yuan wakes up, the sooner Qianqian will have to wait." Zhe Yan told Ye Hua that there was a way, it required their Celestial Tribe's sacred object, the Soul Gathering Lamp. Bai Qian had originally intended to go and see A'Li, but thinking about how Ye Hua had wrongly accused and aggrieved her made her furious, so she decided to go to the Shang Qing Realm instead.

Just as she was about to leave, she saw Su jin gracefully walking in, repeatedly saying, "I've finally seen you, Sister. I was supposed to come and pay my respects early this morning, but I couldn't meet you." Bai Qian didn't like the look of Su jin, and being called 'Sister' over and over again made her increasingly unhappy.

She replied dismissively, "Since you are so eager to pay your respects to me, why didn't you do so when you saw me in the study yesterday? Why come now?" Su jin's smiling face froze for a moment. She forced a smile and said, "The Celestial Palace is different from other places, there are many rules. Lord Ye Hua didn't mention this matter to me, which is why I didn't recognize you as Sister yesterday.

I've come late this time, please forgive me." Bai Qian scoffed inwardly, thinking that what this side consort said was truly impeccable. Bai Qian stroked the fan in her hand and said, "Then you should pay your respects to me according to the rules of the Celestial Tribe." Su jin was stunned for a while and said, "But Sister, I just paid my respects." Bai Qian found this extremely amusing.

Since she had entered the room until now, she had only slightly bowed. Did that count as paying respects to her, the future Celestial Tribe's legitimate consort and High Goddess of the four seas and eight wildernesses? Although Bai Qian was displeased, she didn't make things too difficult for her. Vaguely, Bai Qian saw Zhe Yan appear at her door.

Before she could speak, she saw Su jin, who had been standing gracefully, suddenly drop to her knees at Bai Qian's feet. Bai Qian asked, puzzled, "What are you doing?" Su jin put on a look of tearful gratitude and said, "This bow is to thank you, Benefactor. A'Li lost his mother from a young age. I heard that he has recognized you as his mother, and I hope Sister will be more accommodating.

In those years, Lord Ye Hua loved A'Li's mother deeply and even jumped off the Immortal Executing Platform with her, only waking up after lying there for sixty-something years. All the peach blossoms in the courtyard of Yi Lan Fang Hua were planted for A'Li's mother. This bow from me, your younger sister, is also in hopes that Sister and Lord Ye Hua can marry soon, to comfort Lord Ye Hua's half-dead heart." Bai Qian's heart stirred.

This woman in front of her was truly extraordinary. These words implied that Ye Hua only particularly doted on her because she resembled A'Li's birth mother. Bai Qian was glad that she had watched many such plays during her travels in the mortal realm, which prevented her from being emotionally affected by these provocative words. Bai Qian paced beside Su jin and said indifferently, "What you seek in your heart is not necessarily what everyone wants.

As an immortal, it's better not to be too clever. I need to point out a few things to you. I genuinely like A'Li, so there's no question of being accommodating or not. Furthermore, I have always received the worship of the four seas and eight wildernesses according to the rules of Green Hills: bathe and burn incense three days in advance, and then perform the ritual of three kowtows and nine bows three days later.

This ritual is not insignificant; even if your husband Ye Hua bowed to me in this manner, I would be able to accept it. If you mention paying respects to me again in the future, please do so according to the rules of Green Hills. Also, my mother never gave me any younger sisters, so from now on, don't call me 'Sister'. Please address me according to proper etiquette, call me 'High Goddess'."

After saying these words, Bai Qian felt much better. Looking at Su jin again, the hands she had on the ground were tightly clenched into fists, showing how ashamed and unbearable she felt in her heart. After dismissing Su jin, Bai Qian mused to herself, "It seems this Su jin is inseparable from A'Li's birth mother jumping off the Immortal Executing Platform."

Nai Nai, looking at Su jin's retreating figure, had long since been simmering with anger and said hatefully, "That's right, our poor mistress was tricked by this woman into losing her eyes and was forced to jump off the Immortal Executing Platform, her soul scattered." Bai Qian questioned, "Given Ye Hua's temperament, shouldn't he have struck down Su jin with a sword long ago?" Unexpectedly, Nai Nai said calmly, "He did strike her down."

She told Bai Qian about the incident when Ye Hua stabbed Su jin with a sword back then. Bai Qian sighed, "This Ye Hua is truly a man of deep affection." Su jin had delayed Bai Qian from going to the Shang Qing Realm. Just as she was about to leave, she saw Zhe Yan returning.

Zhe Yan smiled and said he hadn't seen Bai Qian act so childishly in many years, and that hearing it from the corner just now was very amusing. Zhe Yan stayed to talk with Bai Qian alone. Bai Qian saw the expression on Zhe Yan's face and her heart stirred.

Three hundred years ago, Zhe Yan had worn the same expression when he told her that her master was about to wake up, but she had waited bitterly for three hundred years. Zhe Yan knew the pain and anticipation in Bai Qian's heart. He seriously told Bai Qian that the thing she had longed for for seventy thousand years was truly about to come true; Mo Yuan was really coming back.

Zhe Yan told Bai Qian that he had found Mo Yuan's soul in the West Sea. Although Mo Yuan had used his primordial spirit to seal the Donghuang Bell that day, logically there should be no Mo Yuan in this world anymore. However, since Mo Yuan had left them, his disciples, the words 'Wait for me' that day, Zhe Yan, who was raised by Father God and grew up with Mo Yuan, understood Mo Yuan's character very well.

Since he left those words, it proved that he must have had a way to preserve his soul. For the past tens of thousands of years, Zhe Yan had never given up searching for Mo Yuan's soul and finally discovered that Mo Yuan's soul was actually inside the West Sea First Prince's body. It was just that the soul was too weak, which was why he had not noticed its existence until now. Bai Qian wept tears of joy.

When Zhe Yan looked at her again, her face was covered in tears. She was truly afraid that all her waiting would turn out to be a false alarm. Ye Hua quietly came outside Yi Lan Fang Hua and felt disheartened seeing Qianqian in such a state. Having heard the news from Zhe Yan, Bai Qian naturally could not stay in the Nine Heavens any longer.

However, having had an argument with Ye Hua earlier, it would be too petty for her to just leave. Bai Qian decided to leave a letter before going to the West Sea with Zhe Yan. Ye Hua read the letter Bai Qian left behind, his heart filled with sorrow and sadness. ' Qianqian, are you really leaving me?' Lian Song came to find Ye Hua, asking for his help with a tricky matter.

It was about Zhi Yue, Ye Hua's cousin. Upon hearing that the Emperor Monarch had gone to the mortal realm for his trial, Zhi Yue caused a scene in the main hall, insisting on also going down to accompany him through the trial. Lian Song originally thought Ye Hua would stop her from making a fuss. Unexpectedly, Ye Hua only asked Zhi Yue if she absolutely had to go to the mortal realm to see the Emperor Monarch.

Zhi Yue replied with the utmost certainty, "Of course!" Ye Hua then punished Zhi Yue by sending her down to the mortal realm for a trial of twenty years in her next life. Fengjiu spent the entire day worrying about how to help the Emperor Monarch overcome his trial of love. One day, Crown Prince Yuan Zhen came before her. Fengjiu asked him why he looked so troubled.

Yuan Zhen said that several years had passed since his master left, and he missed his master very much. Fengjiu was very comforted, thinking that Yuan Zhen was truly a good child; he still remembered his aunt even after she had been gone for so long. Yuan Zhen showed Fengjiu the Cloud Breaking Fan that Bai Qian had given him before she left. For some reason, the Cloud Breaking Fan suddenly went wild and displayed its power.

In order to protect Yuan Zhen, Fengjiu tried to subdue the fan, but they accidentally tripped over a stool and both fell to the ground. The Empress happened to pass by and saw this scene, mistakenly believing that Fengjiu and Yuan Zhen were having an affair. She had Fengjiu and Yuan Zhen locked up in the Celestial Prison.

The Emperor reprimanded the Empress who had come to him to complain about Fengjiu, and told the Empress that he would never believe that Fengjiu and Yuan Zhen were having an affair. In the Celestial Prison, Fengjiu dejectedly told Si Ming that she ultimately couldn't escape destiny. Now Yuan Zhen was finally imprisoned on the charge of having an affair with the Emperor's consort. This way, her aunt's difficult trip to the mortal realm might have been in vain.

Si Ming told Fengjiu not to worry about Yuan Zhen for now. This was a good opportunity for the Emperor Monarch to go through his trial of love. She only needed to wait for the Emperor Monarch to come and find Fengjiu and then personally admit that she did indeed have an affair with the Crown Prince. Fengjiu was extremely unwilling in her heart. Just as she was thinking, the Emperor came to the Celestial Prison to pick up Fengjiu.

Episode 43 Recap

The Emperor came to the Celestial Prison to take Fengjiu out. Fengjiu looked at him with tearful eyes. Si Ming, standing nearby, urgently urged Fengjiu to tell the Emperor that she indeed had an affair with Yuan Zhen. Only by doing this would the Divine Monarch truly pass his trial of love, and only then could Fengjiu regain her immortal form and return to Green Hills.

However, looking at the Emperor's deeply affectionate eyes, Fengjiu could not bring herself to say words that would hurt him. The Emperor took Fengjiu back to his palace. The Emperor hugged Fengjiu tightly, saying apologetically that it was his fault for bringing Fengjiu into this harem struggle. Fengjiu's heart stirred. She had not expected that the Emperor would truly keep his promise to her and believe her no matter what.

Because of this, Fengjiu found it even harder to steel her heart and create this trial of love for the Divine Monarch. Fengjiu was dressing in front of a mirror, but saw the Emperor's reflection in the mirror. Fengjiu turned around, overjoyed, but there was nothing. Si Ming watched from the side, knowing in his heart that the little highness's love for the Divine Monarch had become uncontrollable.

If he didn't hurry and create the trial of love for the Divine Monarch, he feared both he and Fengjiu would face severe punishment upon returning to the Celestial Palace. Si Ming did not understand why Fengjiu was so stubborn. Even if the Divine Monarch died in the mortal realm, he would immediately recover his immortal form in the Celestial Palace and still be the Divine Monarch of the Nine Heavens. Fengjiu told Si Ming that he didn't understand.

The Divine Monarch was only her husband when he was in the mortal realm, while the one in the Nine Heavens was just the cold Divine Monarch. The Emperor stood alone, holding the arrowhead that Fengjiu had taken for him back then, lost in thought. A young eunuch hurriedly came in to report that Crown Prince Yuan Zhen had fainted in the bathing pool. The Emperor immediately got up and went to the bathing pool.

When the young eunuch turned around, it was revealed that this person was Si Ming in disguise, whose purpose was to lure the Emperor to the bathing pool. Yuan Zhen was indeed preparing to bathe in the pool, when unexpectedly Fengjiu appeared by the water, dressed in a bright red gown, looking seductive. Yuan Zhen was immediately panicked. He repeatedly backed away, saying, "Consort Shu, if Imperial Father sees us, both our heads will be gone."

As Yuan Zhen fearfully backed away, he felt the Emperor's boots. The Emperor forced himself to tell Fengjiu to get ashore and return to her palace immediately, saying that no one would know about what happened tonight and he would not blame her. Fengjiu was heartbroken, thinking why couldn't her love have a good ending. The Emperor turned away, a mouthful of blood gushed out, and he collapsed to the ground unconscious.

Fengjiu was taken to death row by the Empress. Si Ming came to visit Fengjiu, seeing the little highness in despair. Si Ming was helpless, not knowing how to comfort Fengjiu. The Dragon Bell suddenly rang. Fengjiu and Si Ming were both greatly startled. Si Ming thought it was strange; according to the fate book, the Divine Monarch had another eighteen years of life in the mortal realm, so how could he die at this time?

Si Ming had to hurry back to the Celestial Palace to report. Fengjiu cried out, asking if she could still see the Divine Monarch again. The Divine Monarch's trial felt like a dream. When he woke up, only a little over a month had passed in the heavens. The Divine Monarch looked at the arrowhead tightly held in his hand, thinking about his love trial with Fengjiu in the mortal realm.

His heart was no longer as cold as ice as it had been before. Si Ming came to apologize to the Divine Monarch for the error in the fate book. Following Ye Hua knew the news of the Divine Monarch waking up and hurried over. Ye Hua asked the Divine Monarch two questions. Was divine herb absolutely necessary for immortals to transfer cultivation? The Divine Monarch affirmed that it was necessary.

Ye Hua paused, then asked if the Divine Monarch had ever fought those four mythical beasts. The Divine Monarch looked at Ye Hua's serious expression, thought for a moment, and said, "I have not fought them. However, I know that three hundred years ago, Fox Emperor Bai Zhi fought them to obtain the divine herb. Few in the world can compare to the Fox Emperor's power, and although he brought back the divine herb, he was also severely injured."

The Divine Monarch looked at Ye Hua and said meaningfully, "You could perhaps give it a try." Ye Hua thanked the Divine Monarch and was about to leave when the Divine Monarch suddenly spoke, "Are you doing all this for Mo Yuan?" Ye Hua was puzzled why the Divine Monarch knew about Mo Yuan's matter.

The Divine Monarch lowered his eyes, thinking, and said that he not only knew about Mo Yuan's matter but also knew that Bai Qian of Green Hills was the former High God Si Yin. Ye Hua only asked the Divine Monarch, "The Celestial Tribe has been searching for Mo Yuan for seventy thousand years. Since you already knew about this, why did you never mention it?"

The Divine Monarch told Ye Hua how tragic the great battle at Ruoshui River was, but even the most tragic things fade after seventy thousand years. He said he did not understand then the depth of Si Yin's heartbreaking cries as she held Mo Yuan's immortal body, even thinking that for an immortal to view life and death in such a way meant her immortal talent was somewhat mediocre.

But now that he had experienced the six sorrows of the mortal realm, he could finally understand that kind of heartbreaking state of mind. Mo Yuan loved Si Yin most when he was alive. Now that Mo Yuan could be buried in Si Yin's homeland, accompanied by Si Yin day and night, he could also be at peace. Ye Hua's heart ached faintly upon hearing this.

Zhe Yan and Bai Qian left the Celestial Palace and went directly to the West Sea. Bai Qian knew very little about the West Sea Water God among the four sea water gods. She only heard her Senior Disciple mention that from his grandfather's generation of Water God down to his father, they were all very low-key.

Zhe Yan smiled and said, "It was this very low-key Water God who, in order to save his son, posted notices all over the four seas and eight wildernesses back then, offering a heavy reward to anyone who could heal the First Prince. But for six hundred years, no one could claim the reward." It was by chance that Bai Zhen and Die Feng formed a friendship, which convinced him to come and treat the First Prince.

Only Zhe Yan in this world could detect that Mo Yuan was sleeping within the First Prince's body. Bai Qian sighed, "In a way, it seems Senior Disciple helped find Master." Zhe Yan told Bai Qian that she would have to work hard to look after Die Yong for some time. Bai Qian said without hesitation, "Caring for Master is my duty; what is hard about it?" The West Sea Water God paid his respects to Zhe Yan.

Zhe Yan introduced Bai Qian, telling the Water God that she was his immortal attendant, specifically responsible for caring for patients like Die Yong. The Water God led the two towards Die Yong's chambers. Perhaps it was the nervousness of being near home, after waiting seventy thousand years, now finally arriving at this day, Bai Qian took a deep breath, her whole body tense.

At the entrance of Die Yong's chambers, fearing she might meet her Senior Disciple and not know how to face him, Bai Qian specifically told the Water God that during the time she would be caring for Die Yong, no one in the Water God's palace should come near here, so as not to disturb her immortal cultivation.

She had thought that since Mo Yuan had placed his soul within the West Sea First Prince's body, she would feel some familiarity with the immortal energy around the First Prince, or perhaps the First Prince's soul would be imprinted with Mo Yuan's shadow. But what Bai Qian hadn't expected was that when she saw the sickly person on the bed, her heart sank unconsciously. This First Prince's aura was soft, his immortal energy faint and very weak.

How could she believe that the soul of her God of War Mo Yuan, who was so renowned throughout the four seas and eight wildernesses, would be on his body? After Zhe Yan left, Bai Qian used a soul-tracking technique, and finally found the sleeping primordial spirit of Ye Hua deep within Die Yong's soul. Bai Qian was extremely emotional, kneeling and paying respects to her master. It had been seventy thousand years.

How afraid she was that this time it would be another false alarm. Now finally seeing Master's primordial spirit, the heart that had been suspended for seventy thousand years could finally be put at ease. Bai Qian withdrew from Die Yong's primordial spirit, thinking that for Die Yong's body to properly nourish Master's primordial spirit, it would probably take at least seven or eight thousand years. But to help Master's primordial spirit recover sooner, she needed the Soul Gathering Lamp.

Bai Qian decided she would go to the Nine Heavens and ask the Heavenly Monarch for the Soul Gathering Lamp. Bai Qian was hesitating about how to go to the Nine Heavens and ask for the Soul Gathering Lamp. The West Sea welcomed a distinguished guest. This guest's status was not small; everyone in the West Sea went to the great hall to welcome the distinguished guest.

Bai Qian went to the great hall and saw that this guest was none other than the Nine Heavens Crown Prince Ye Hua, with whom she was still angry. The two were alone in a room, both silent. Bai Qian felt angry about the words he had spoken to her in Yi Lan Fang Hua when he took A'Li, and was about to leave.

Ye Hua stepped forward, closed the palace door, trapped her hands, and pressed her against the wall, his eyes burning as he looked at her. Ye Hua had already kissed Bai Qian's lips. In the chaotic struggle, Ye Hua saw the three-inch knife scar on Bai Qian's chest. Ye Hua's eyes stopped there, his heart somber. " Qianqian, is this the scar you kept for Mo Yuan?"

Ye Hua pressed his hand against Bai Qian's chest, his face as pale as paper, his eyes burning as he looked at Bai Qian and asked, "Is there even a tiny place for me here?" These words truly left Bai Qian not knowing how to answer. After a while, Ye Hua withdrew his hand and slowly said, "You waited seventy thousand years for that person, and now he is about to return. Naturally, there is no place for me here."

Bai Qian suddenly looked up and asked, "How do you know about Mo Yuan returning?" She thought only Zhe Yan, herself, and her fourth brother knew about this matter. Why did Ye Hua know as well? Ye Hua no longer looked at Bai Qian, turning his head to the side, and said faintly, "Zhe Yan told me." He asked, "I know you will definitely go to the Celestial Palace to borrow the Soul Gathering Lamp.

Let me ask you, after you take the lamp, what else are you planning to do?" It seemed Zhe Yan had told Ye Hua everything. Bai Qian thought there was no need to hide anything from him anymore and said directly that she was going to get the divine herb from Dongying and then transfer half of her cultivation to Die Yong, so that Master's primordial spirit would wake up sooner.

Ye Hua learned that Bai Qian was going to get that divine herb to save Mo Yuan. He looked into Bai Qian's eyes and said, word by word, "You're even giving up your life for him? You're crazy!" Bai Qian paused and said, "Master is right before my eyes now. Even if that divine herb is guarded by fierce beasts, I must go and get it."

Bai Qian saw Ye Hua remain silent and paused, then said, "Ye Hua, let's just forget about this marriage agreement." Ye Hua faltered, staggering slightly, and asked, "What did you say?" Bai Qian avoided looking directly into Ye Hua's eyes and said, "It's just because Sang Ji broke the engagement back then to save face for Green Hills and the Celestial Tribe. Now if you break it once, and we break it once, it's fair."

Ye Hua did not look at Bai Qian, only saying, "Come to my place tonight. The Soul Gathering Lamp is not in the Celestial Palace, it's with me." Ye Hua walked to the door and said faintly, "How much you owe me, how much I owe you, it's probably already a mess, how can it be clearly calculated?" Bai Qian was frozen in place after hearing these words, unable to move.

Episode 44 Recap

After Bai Qian and Ye Hua finished talking in the great hall of the Water Palace, Bai Qian returned to her residence. After the conversation with Ye Hua, her heart felt empty for a moment. As she was feeling empty, Bai Zhen leisurely appeared in Bai Qian's room. Bai Qian sat down and poured a cup of tea for her fourth brother.

Bai Zhen looked her up and down with his eyes, his eyebrows furrowed tightly, asking why her face looked so bad. Could it be that she wasn't happy about Mo Yuan's return? Bai Qian gave a dry laugh and explained that perhaps it was because she had just used a soul-tracking technique to search for Master in Die Yong's primordial spirit and hadn't fully recovered yet. Bai Zhen still stared straight at Bai Qian.

Bai Qian had to add, "Plus, I was just upset with Ye Hua." Immediately, Bai Zhen's gossiping spirit was piqued. After Bai Qian told him about what happened between her and Ye Hua after A'Li got drunk, Bai Zhen laughed and said, "A'Li is just a little child. You gave him so much alcohol, and he didn't wake up for seven or eight hours, and you didn't send anyone to tell Ye Hua.

As a stepmother, you were also nowhere to be found. If he didn't feel any fluctuation in his heart, he would truly be a remarkable person." Bai Zhen paused there, then leaned closer to Bai Qian and said, "Given your nature, encountering something like this would just be a joke to you. But seeing you now, you're even putting on the airs of a primary consort and trying your best to provoke that concubine Su jin.

This series of actions is quite admirable to me, your brother, but this anomaly, could it be that you're jealous?" Bai Qian was stunned for a moment, thinking that she had lived for 140,000 years and had weathered every storm. But now, seeing that concubine Su jin made her feel uncomfortable all over. She couldn't stand A'Li's father saying even a single word against her. And now, after being forcibly kissed by Ye Hua, she was so absent-minded.

So, it turned out she was jealous, and she had been jealous for so long? Bai Qian looked blankly at Bai Zhen and said, "No way, I'm a full 90,000 years older than him. If I had married at a proper age, my grandson would probably be as old as him. Besides, he just confessed to me, and I didn't feel even a tiny bit of a flutter."

Hearing the words "confessed," Bai Zhen's eyes lit up and he said, "He actually confessed to you? To be interested in someone I raised, this kid has good taste." Bai Zhen burst out laughing and said heartily, "Age isn't a problem. Our father is also over 15,000 years older than our mother. As long as you look compatible, it's fine.

Zhe Yan has also always been set on helping me find a wife, but there's no one in the four seas and eight wildernesses who can match me." After saying this, Bai Zhen patted Bai Qian's shoulder and said, "You're doing well as a High Goddess, but you're completely ignorant when it comes to matters of romance. Someone as lacking in sensibility as you, sudden flutters of the heart probably won't work; you're only suitable for a slow burn."

Bai Zhen then asked Bai Qian if she would have any regrets if Ye Hua didn't stay in Green Hills anymore, considering he had stayed there for over four months previously. Bai Qian's heart trembled, thinking that when Ye Hua first came to Green Hills, she was indeed unaccustomed to him, but later, she was pulled by him for walks morning and evening. While he reviewed official documents, she would crack melon seeds and doze off beside him.

At night, she would play chess with him. Although it was only four months, with Bai Zhen asking this, Bai Qian couldn't even quite remember how she spent her days before Ye Hua came to Green Hills. Bai Zhen teased Bai Qian, saying, "Nine times out of ten, you've fallen for Ye Hua.

Since Ye Hua has taken to you and confessed to you, it seems we should tell father and have him propose to the Heavenly Monarch early to get your marriage done quickly. Now that you are like this, I am relieved. I'll head back first." After saying this, Bai Zhen cast a spell and left. After Bai Zhen left, Bai Qian couldn't help but sigh.

If she really had fallen for Ye Hua, then she had truly regressed in these 140,000 years, to actually fall for a young man 90,000 years younger than herself, who could even call her Old Ancestor. As dusk fell, Bai Qian went to the sleeping quarters where Ye Hua was staying to retrieve the Soul Gathering Lamp. From afar, she saw Ye Hua drinking on the stone steps at the entrance of the hall.

Bai Qian recalled that Nai Nai had once told her that A'Li's alcohol tolerance was somewhat like his father's, very low. When Bai Qian counted the empty wine jars in front of Ye Hua, there were as many as five. Bai Qian thought, his alcohol tolerance isn't bad after all. As she was thinking, she walked up to Ye Hua. Ye Hua only glanced at Bai Qian before getting up and saying blandly, "Come in."

Ye Hua showed Bai Qian the Soul Gathering Lamp on the table and said expressionlessly, "This lamp needs to be placed by Die Yong's bed for three days. No spells can be used; it must be guarded day and night without extinguishing for three days, only then can Mo Yuan's soul be fully gathered." Ye Hua paused and said, "It was my excessive worry. You have always been dedicated to caring for Mo Yuan."

Bai Qian faintly sensed a mortal aura on the lamp. The scattered memories of Su Su unexpectedly flickered in Bai Qian's mind. Bai Qian merely thought that the mortal aura had disturbed her and didn't think further. Now that she had obtained the Celestial Tribe's sacred artifact, the Soul Gathering Lamp, so easily from Ye Hua, Bai Qian felt quite moved. She walked up to Ye Hua and said, "You've helped me so much. Is there anything you want?

If I can help, I will do my best." Ye Hua looked at Bai Qian with deep weariness and said faintly, "There's nothing I want." Bai Qian saw the depth of his gaze and felt truly distressed for a moment. After hesitating for a while, Bai Qian thought she should leave first. Ye Hua said slowly from behind her, "What I want, from beginning to end, is nothing more than you."

By the time Bai Qian reacted, Ye Hua had already carried her horizontally onto the bed. Bai Qian was bewildered and didn't refuse Ye Hua. She couldn't help but sigh inwardly, had her thoughts about Ye Hua become so impure? With this thought, she came back to her senses, and the two were already naked facing each other. It turned out Ye Hua had cast a spell to remove their clothes.

Awakening in the middle of the night, Ye Hua looked at the person beside him and felt a hint of desolation in his heart, thinking, "Qianqian, this is probably the last time I will fully and completely possess you." Bai Qian opened her eyes and looked into Ye Hua's eyes, feeling incredibly happy to see him upon waking.

Bai Qian traced the knife scar on Ye Hua's chest and asked, "He has always been rumored to be invincible, why was he nearly wiped out in the battle with the Merman Tribe?" Ye Hua's voice drifted from above Bai Qian's head, "If I hadn't gone easy on them, how would those people have had a chance to injure me? That was just a ploy to deceive the Heavenly Monarch." Bai Qian didn't understand why.

Ye Hua paused and said bitterly that he had never envied anyone in his life, but he truly envied his second uncle Sang Ji. Free from the constraints of being Crown Prince, he got what he desired and achieved fulfillment in the end, leaving freely and without restraint. What he was fortunate for, was that the person he loved was Bai Qian of Green Hills.

Bai Qian had long been sleepy and found a comfortable position in Ye Hua's arms, falling asleep peacefully. Ye Hua asked faintly, "Qianqian, if someone took your eyes, and if that person were me, what would you do?" Bai Qian said perfunctorily, "Then our relationship ends here." That night, Bai Qian had a dream.

On a mountain covered in blossoming peach trees, a mortal woman looked exactly like her, and a man was deeply in love with that woman, living happily. One stormy night, the woman, disregarding the man's entrustment before he left, ran out of the thatched cottage, falling and getting up in the rain. For some reason, even in the dream, Bai Qian felt an unbearable heartache. Waking up in the morning, Bai Qian found herself on her own bed.

Ye Hua was no longer beside her. She got up and went to Ye Hua's sleeping quarters and was told by the maids that Ye Hua had already returned to the Celestial Palace. Bai Qian merely thought that as Crown Prince, Ye Hua was naturally busy and didn't think much of it. As she turned to leave, Bai Fengjiu hugged Bai Qian from behind, calling out, "Aunt, aunt, Fengjiu is back!"

Bai Qian looked at the little Fengjiu, who was feigning happiness, and knew in her heart that she must have suffered greatly in her love trial. After returning to the Nine Heavens, Ye Hua requested permission from the Heavenly Monarch to go to Dongying to destroy all the divine herbs.

The Heavenly Monarch was puzzled and asked Ye Hua why, as those divine herbs were guarded by the four fierce beasts of Father God, even if he didn't destroy them, others couldn't easily take them. Ye Hua told the Heavenly Monarch that it was unavoidable for some people to covet the divine herbs, and keeping them in the world for one more day meant one more day of hidden danger. The Heavenly Monarch granted Ye Hua's request.

Ye Hua decided to go to Dongying alone. Before leaving, he specifically instructed Jiayun that if he didn't return after three days, he must stop anyone from approaching Dongying, especially Bai Qian of Green Hills. Bai Qian lit the Soul Gathering Lamp and intended to guard by Die Yong's window for three days and nights without sleep. Seeing the Soul Gathering Lamp, Die Feng knew that an immortal attendant was here to look after his eldest brother.

After returning from Kunlun Void, he specifically came to visit Bai Qian. Bai Qian felt she could no longer hide it from her Senior Disciple and finally reunited with Die Feng, telling him her true identity. For seventy thousand years, Die Feng had been searching for Seventeenth and Master every moment. Now he had finally found them. The master and disciple were overjoyed upon reuniting and wept tears of joy.

Episode 45 Recap

Yan Zhi took Xuan Nv and Zi Lan to Dongying. Li Jing sent the person who had been secretly protecting Yan Zhi to report their whereabouts to him. Li Jing thought that Yan Zhi and the others might be going to retrieve the divine herbs, feeling uneasy, he decided to personally go to Dongying to bring Yan Zhi and Xuan Nv back to the Wing Tribe realm.

His subordinates had always been hesitant to act rashly because Xuan Nv was carrying the little prince. Li Jing was expressionless, saying coldly, "This Divine Monarch has no little prince; my child died the moment he was born." When the three of them, Yan Zhi, reached Dongying, it was already late. The three of them could only camp for now and wait until tomorrow to retrieve the divine herbs.

Yan Zhi confessed and told Zi Lan that she was not a mortal, but a Wing Tribe member. Zi Lan naturally knew, but he had to pretend not to care. In fact, after so many days, Yan Zhi had already sensed that Zi Lan was not just an ordinary constable. Zi Lan couldn't bear to tell Yan Zhi his Celestial Tribe identity right now, only saying that after retrieving the divine herbs tomorrow, he would naturally tell her the truth.

Zi Lan paused, "After tomorrow, things will be more ominous than auspicious." Zi Lan mustered his courage to tell Yan Zhi that he liked her and wanted to know what she thought in her heart. Yan Zhi was startled by this sudden confession. In truth, Yan Zhi already felt fondness for Zi Lan in her heart, but given their current situation, Yan Zhi hesitated repeatedly and still did not give Zi Lan a clear answer.

The next day, the three of them, Yan Zhi, arrived at a cave. Father God had sealed the four ancient fierce beasts and the divine herbs together in this cave with an immortal barrier. Yan Zhi planned to go alone, specifically entrusting Xuan Nv to Zi Lan, asking the two of them to wait at the cave entrance. If she hadn't come out by dark, they should just leave.

Zi Lan naturally couldn't let Yan Zhi venture in alone, so he followed her inside. As for Xuan Nv, she never believed that Yan Zhi would risk her life for her child to get the divine herbs. Determined to get them herself no matter what, she also followed them into the cave. Yan Zhi entered the cave with utmost caution, but then discovered Zi Lan and Xuan Nv following behind her. She urgently asked why they had come in.

Zi Lan said spiritedly that he was a man, how could he let a woman risk her life? Unexpectedly, their voices still startled the four divine beasts. The ancient fierce beasts inherited half of Father God's divine power and were incredibly ferocious. Yan Zhi and Zi Lan were no match for them at all.

Yan Zhi was thrown to the ground, and as she fainted, she heard Zi Lan announcing himself during his fight with the divine beasts, claiming to be Zi Lan, the sixteenth disciple under Mo Yuan at Kunlun Void. For Zi Lan's magic power to contend with the four divine beasts was undoubtedly like hitting a rock with an egg, completely vulnerable. In the moment of peril, Li Jing arrived in time.

Li Jing brought people from the Wing Tribe realm to fight the four fierce beasts and shouted for Zi Lan to quickly take Yan Zhi and Xuan Nv out of the cave entrance. Zi Lan picked up the unconscious Yan Zhi, wanting to pull Xuan Nv out with him. Unexpectedly, Xuan Nv shouted, almost crazily, that she had to get the divine herbs no matter what and refused to leave the cave under any circumstances.

For Yan Zhi's safety, Zi Lan had no choice but to take Yan Zhi out first. Zi Lan took Yan Zhi out of the cave entrance and settled her, then Ye Hua appeared at the cave entrance. Seeing that both Yan Zhi and Zi Lan were seriously injured, Ye Hua frowned and asked Zi Lan who had startled the divine beasts in the cave.

Zi Lan reported to the Crown Prince that it was the Winged Monarch and Winged Queen of the Wing Tribe realm who were in the cave. Ye Hua was worried about the Wing Tribe's designs on the divine herbs. After setting up an immortal barrier for Zi Lan and Yan Zhi, he flashed into the cave. Li Jing was fighting the four fierce beasts in the cave when Ye Hua appeared.

He wielded his sword to fight the four fierce beasts. Li Jing wanted to take Xuan Nv out, but Xuan Nv's obsession was too deep, and she refused to leave the cave no matter what. Ye Hua truly struggled against the four divine beasts, and his cultivation had been significantly depleted. Finally, three divine beasts were killed by Ye Hua's sword. The other one, a Taotie, escaped and its whereabouts were unknown.

Ye Hua took one stalk of the divine herbs from the cliff face and put it into his sleeve, then used his magic power to destroy all the remaining divine herbs. Unexpectedly, Xuan Nv suddenly picked up a sword from the ground and lunged towards Ye Hua. When Ye Hua turned around to block Xuan Nv's sword, that Taotie suddenly sprang out and bit down hard on Ye Hua's right arm, violently tearing the right arm from Ye Hua's body.

Ye Hua endured the intense pain and killed that Taotie. Having lost his right arm and depleted more than half of his cultivation, Ye Hua was gradually failing. Ye Hua endured and managed to bring everyone out from Dongying Island. Ye Hua used his magic power to completely destroy Dongying Island in the sea, eliminating future troubles. After Yan Zhi woke up, she knew there were no more divine herbs in the world.

The only one in Ye Hua's hand was the sole hope for Xuan Nv's child to survive. Yan Zhi pleaded with Ye Hua to give her one stalk, as the child's body after all had half of the Celestial Tribe's bloodline. Considering the Wing Tribe princess's kind and sincere heart, Ye Hua shared the divine herbs with her. Xuan Nv was severely injured in the cave and did not have long to live.

Li Jing carried Xuan Nv out of Dongying. Xuan Nv lay in Li Jing's arms, her breath faint, saying that day in the cave on Kunlun Void, she had always been sincere. Seeing Xuan Nv in her current state, Li Jing couldn't bear it. Thinking that in these seventy thousand years, he only remembered her appearance at her deathbed, he couldn't help but mock himself that their seventy thousand years as husband and wife had been truly ridiculous.

Xuan Nv finally died in Li Jing's arms. Just as Ye Hua was about to leave, Li Jing, having arranged Xuan Nv's immortal body, caught up to Ye Hua and asked if he had taken the divine herbs to save Mo Yuan. Seeing Ye Hua's tacit confirmation, Li Jing tried to dissuade him, saying that during the great battle, Mo Yuan had used his own primordial spirit to sacrifice to the Donghuang Bell to seal Qing Cang.

Now, if Mo Yuan were to be awakened, the primordial spirit on the Donghuang Bell would surely disappear, which would allow Qing Cang to break out of the Bell. The world might then face another bloody storm. Ye Hua was slightly puzzled. Li Jing explained to Ye Hua that he and his two siblings were merely blood parasites raised by Qing Cang. If any one of them died, Qing Cang's magic power would greatly increase.

Just a few days ago, his eldest brother had already died. If the primordial spirit sealed on the Donghuang Bell disappeared, then Qing Cang would very likely use the momentum to break out. After hearing this, Ye Hua's expression remained unchanged. Li Jing, looking awkward, asked since Ye Hua already had a marriage engagement with A'Yin, why did he have to awaken Mo Yuan?

Ye Hua said lightly, "Awakening Mo Yuan is Qianqian's long-cherished wish from the past seventy thousand years." After speaking, Ye Hua turned and left. On Kunlun Void, immortal cranes cried out together. The second senior disciple, who was always responsible for feeding the immortal cranes, was very confused by this sight. He thought back to when this situation last occurred during the great battle between Master Mo Yuan and Qing Cang. He couldn't help but wonder what was happening today.

The second senior disciple returned from the immortal cranes and saw Crown Prince Ye Hua, severely wounded, missing his right arm, and completely weakened, appearing at the entrance of the main hall. Ye Hua had been forcing himself to stay strong and asked the second senior disciple to borrow Kunlun Void's alchemy furnace. Ye Hua placed the divine herbs he had obtained into the alchemy furnace and used his lifelong cultivation to refine the divine herbs into a pill.

Ye Hua, whose magic power had been completely depleted, thought that this was probably the last thing he could do for Qianqian. Zhe Yan woke up in the morning and was stretching lazily. Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped out of his house, he saw Ye Hua, covered in injuries, appearing in the peach blossom forest. Seeing Zhe Yan, Ye Hua handed the pill in his hand to him just before falling unconscious.

The Crown Prince of the Celestial Tribe was severely wounded, with a broken right arm, and instead of returning to the Celestial Palace, he came to this ten-mile peach blossom forest. Zhe Yan deduced that there must be something that couldn't be known by the Nine Heavens and the Heavenly Monarch. It seemed that they could only know what exactly happened after Ye Hua woke up.

Zhe Yan specifically went to the lotus root pond to retrieve an aged lotus root for Ye Hua, planning to use it to make Ye Hua a prosthetic arm. Bai Zhen was puzzled and asked if this could swing a sword. Zhe Yan sighed, "Let alone swinging a sword, it can't even move. It's just for appearance. We can't let the dignified Crown Prince of the Celestial Tribe be seen by others in this state."

With Ye Hua severely wounded and unconscious this time, Bai Qian was also tirelessly guarding the Soul Gathering Lamp by Die Yong's side. On the third day, Die Yong finally woke up and felt that he hadn't been this energetic in six hundred years. Bai Qian thought that Master's soul must have been gathered properly now. Having stayed up for three days and three nights guarding, Bai Qian was truly exhausted and decided to sleep soundly for two days.

Episode 46 Recap

Bai Qian guarded the Soul Gathering Lamp tirelessly for three days and nights, finally gathering Mo Yuan's primordial spirit. She had planned to sleep for two full days before going to Dongying to retrieve the divine herbs, but on this day, Bai Qian's second brother, High God Bai Yi, suddenly came to Xihai. Die Feng brought Bai Yi to Bai Qian.

Bai Yi asked Die Feng if a notice posted by the West Sea Sea King throughout the four seas and eight wildernesses, stating that whoever could cure the eldest prince could marry their daughter into West Sea, was true. Die Feng was unsure of the meaning of his words, but answered that it was indeed true.

Upon hearing this, Bai Yi was overjoyed and said that now that Bai Qian had healed your eldest brother, could his daughter, Bai Fengjiu, be married into your West Sea? Bai Qian and Die Feng were both greatly surprised by these words.

Bai Qian knew that her second brother was trying this method to get Bai Fengjiu to forget that Divine Monarch on the Nine Heavens as quickly as possible, but as Bai Fengjiu's aunt, she could not stand by and watch her second brother haphazardly arrange a marriage for Bai Fengjiu. Just as Bai Qian had refuted her second brother on Bai Fengjiu's behalf for a couple of sentences, she was scolded back by Bai Yi.

Bai Qian had no choice but to shut up. Die Feng could only tell Bai Yi the truth. He had been cultivating Daoist methods at Kunlun Void and had always been someone who didn't understand romance, and his eldest brother had been bedridden with illness for many years. Neither of their brothers were good matches for little Princess Bai Fengjiu. Speaking of this, Die Feng offered Bai Yi an idea.

Why not let the young talents from these four seas and eight wildernesses proactively submit their proposals? This way, they could naturally find a suitable husband for Bai Fengjiu from tens of thousands. The Divine Monarch came to the mortal realm imperial palace alone and unconsciously walked to the Lotus Courtyard where Bai Fengjiu had stayed as Consort Chen. In a trance, he actually saw Bai Fengjiu smilingly walking towards him.

After returning to the Celestial Palace, Si Ming told Dong Hua about Bai Yi recruiting prospective husbands for little Princess Bai Fengjiu throughout the four seas and eight wildernesses. Dong Hua's heart immediately became displeased. He handed a box to Si Ming and asked him to take it to Bai Fengjiu. Si Ming opened the box and saw that it was the very arrowhead that Bai Fengjiu had blocked for the Divine Monarch back then.

The Divine Monarch pretended to be calm and asked Si Ming to tell Bai Fengjiu that she had also saved his life that day, and their past favors were now even. Bai Fengjiu and Bai Qian were relaxing in the back garden of Xihai. The young talents from the four seas and eight wildernesses arrived one after another, bringing various family treasures to offer compliments to Bai Fengjiu.

Bai Fengjiu was troubled about how to return the gifts in the future when Si Ming came to Xihai and found Bai Fengjiu. Si Ming first congratulated Bai Fengjiu, saying that after three hundred years, her favor had finally been repaid. Bai Fengjiu was lost in thought and said to herself, yes, now that the favor is repaid, she has no more connection with the Nine Heavens.

Si Ming took out that arrowhead and brought it along with the words the Divine Monarch had instructed him to convey to Bai Fengjiu. Looking at the arrowhead, Bai Fengjiu couldn't help but recall the vows Dong Hua had made to her when he was the emperor in the mortal realm. Now that the Divine Monarch had returned to his cold and distant appearance on the Nine Heavens, Bai Fengjiu was heartbroken.

Feeling nostalgic for the past, Bai Fengjiu came to the thatched hut where she and the Divine Monarch had hidden from pursuit back then, and unexpectedly met the Divine Monarch there. The Divine Monarch put on a cold and frosty demeanor and told Bai Fengjiu that she was an Imperial Princess of Green Hills, different from mortal women, and it was better to make some things clear.

Bai Fengjiu was stunned and said softly, Bai Fengjiu understands, mortal realm relationships end in the mortal realm. Just as the Divine Monarch turned to leave, Bai Fengjiu took out that arrowhead and tearfully asked if he still remembered what he had said when she blocked that arrow for him.

The Divine Monarch had his back to Bai Fengjiu, not letting her see his emotions, and still told Bai Fengjiu in a cold tone that he remembered, but they were not mortals, and some things, if not decisively ended, would surely lead to trouble. After speaking, he left resolutely. Ye Hua slept for some time in the peach forest and finally woke up under Zhe Yan's treatment.

The first thing Ye Hua did upon waking was ask Zhe Yan and Bai Zhen if Qianqian was still in Xihai. Bai Zhen calculated and told Ye Hua it had been exactly three days and three nights. Ye Hua handed the elixir to Zhe Yan and entrusted him to give it to Qianqian, telling her that this was the divine herbs obtained by Zhe Yan and refined with his cultivation.

Zhe Yan asked in confusion why he wouldn't tell Bai Qian, saying she should be grateful to him. Ye Hua smiled faintly and said, Qianqian has always disliked owing others favors. If he told Qianqian that he had lost his right arm for the divine herbs and used his own cultivation to refine the elixir, it might distract her when she saves Mo Yuan. Thus, it was better not to say anything.

Zhe Yan looked at the reserved Ye Hua like this and felt a sense of solemnity. Zhe Yan also asked Ye Hua if he had considered that if Mo Yuan truly woke up, the Donghuang Bell might not be able to seal Qing Cang, and what would happen to the world then?

Although Ye Hua was severely injured, his eyes were still like torches, and he firmly told Zhe Yan that if Qing Cang truly broke free from the seal and wanted the four seas to be buried with him, there would naturally be someone who protects the eight wildernesses to restrain him. 70,000 years ago, Mo Yuan sacrificed his primordial spirit to the Donghuang Bell. 300 years ago, Qianqian risked her life to protect it.

Afterwards, someone would surely do these things. Zhe Yan knew the 'someone' Ye Hua was referring to was himself. After speaking, Ye Hua returned to the Celestial Palace to report. Bai Zhen looked at Ye Hua's lonely back and wanted to step forward to tell him about Bai Qian's feelings for him. Zhe Yan stopped Bai Zhen and told him that the beginning and end of fate have their own causes and effects.

Ye Hua strongly held on as he returned to the Celestial Palace, already extremely weak. He couldn't let A'Li see him like this, so he ordered someone to tell Chengyu to take A'Li to the Lingshan Dharma Assembly for a few days, saying the sugarcane there was delicious and A'Li would definitely go. After giving instructions regarding A'Li, Ye Hua ordered someone to report to the Heavenly Monarch on his behalf.

Although he had killed the four divine beasts and destroyed all the divine herbs, he had also exhausted his lifelong cultivation. He repeatedly instructed that no one should ever mention that he had been to the ten-mile peach forest. After giving these instructions, Ye Hua lost consciousness. Bai Qian finally slept for several days. Zhe Yan couldn't bear to wake her and waited for her in the main hall for two days. Zhe Yan gave the elixir to Bai Qian.

Bai Qian thought this was an elixir Zhe Yan had refined by expending his cultivation, and couldn't help but be moved. She was concerned whether Zhe Yan was injured when retrieving the divine herbs, thinking back to how even the Fox Emperor himself returned with injuries when he went to get them.

Zhe Yan, having been entrusted by Ye Hua, had no choice but to change the subject and say that Father God had raised him, and he must help with this favor. Bai Qian was grateful to Zhe Yan for doing this, and Zhe Yan felt guilty in his heart.

He instructed Bai Qian to give it to Die Yong when his body was a little better, and then look after him closely for a few days before leaving in a hurry. After leaving Xihai, Zhe Yan went straight to the Green Hills Fox Den. He found Mi Gu and instructed him to make a trip to the Wing Tribe realm. Die Yong took the elixir, and his body couldn't withstand it, causing him to faint.

Bai Qian hid somewhere, lost in thought. Die Feng came to see her. Bai Qian timidly said that she was scared, afraid that everything she was doing now was futile, and afraid that Master still wouldn't wake up. Die Feng comforted her, saying that he had been searching for her and Master for 70,000 years without pause, and finding her now was the greatest blessing.

Die Feng encouraged Bai Qian to cheer up, assuring her that they would definitely wait for Master to return to Kunlun Void. Yan Zhi carried Xuan Nv's child back to the Wing Tribe realm. Li Jing saw the child and couldn't help but feel sad as he recalled past scenes.

Yan Zhi took the initiative to tell Li Jing that she was just a princess and having cultivation was not very useful, while Li Jing was the Wing King and had to protect thousands of subjects. Yan Zhi wanted to refine her cultivation with the divine herbs into an elixir to save the child. Mi Gu, sent by Zhe Yan, came to the Wing Tribe realm and found Li Jing.

Mi Gu conveyed Zhe Yan's words to Li Jing, saying that since he was saved in Dongying, he must give back some reward. Mi Gu brought the Jade Soul obtained from Li Jing to find Bai Qian. Zhe Yan had told Mi Gu to tell Bai Qian that Ye Hua had saved Li Jing's life a few days ago.

Knowing that Bai Qian disliked owing favors the most, he wanted her to know that this Jade Soul was not obtained on her account, so Bai Qian should not worry. Bai Qian was confused about when Ye Hua had saved Li Jing's life. Mi Gu also didn't know, telling his aunt that High God Zhe Yan had only told him this much. The last important matter was that the elixir was rich in immortal energy.

Zhe Yan wanted Bai Qian to place the Jade Soul on Die Yong, and Die Yong would wake up in three days. Bai Qian was anxious to save Mo Yuan and temporarily didn't have the energy to figure out the reason behind all this. She could only follow Zhe Yan's instructions for now, planning to find Zhe Yan later to ask about Ye Hua's matter.

Episode 47 Recap

Bai Qian gave that elixir to Die Yong to take. Die Yong had been bedridden for six hundred years, his body was too weak, and he couldn't withstand this immortal elixir. It took several days of tossing and turning for his pulse to stabilize. Seeing his pulse calm and him much more energetic, Bai Qian felt relieved and went to rest. Before she could fall asleep, Die Feng rushed over.

Bai Qian worried if something had gone wrong with Mo Yuan's primordial spirit. She hurried to Die Yong's bedside and used the Soul Chasing Technique again to enter Die Yong's primordial spirit to see how Mo Yuan was. As Bai Qian approached Mo Yuan's primordial spirit, she found that the primordial spirit was enveloped by vast and surging immortal energy. But this immortal glow protecting Mo Yuan was not Zhe Yan's.

This immortal energy was surging yet calm, restrained yet immense, so much so that even Bai Qian could not get close to Mo Yuan. Bai Qian finally understood why Zhe Yan had hesitated to speak when he came to see her that day, and why he could retrieve the divine herbs unharmed. It turned out that all of this was Ye Hua. Bai Qian was truly shocked in her heart. Ye Hua, why?

Why did you do so much and yet tell me nothing? Bai Qian was anxious to go to the Nine Heavens to see Ye Hua. A guard reported to Ye Hua that Bai Qian had arrived at the Celestial Palace. Ye Hua suppressed his physical weakness, dressed himself with one hand, and instructed the celestial maidens serving him not to speak much in front of Bai Qian. Bai Qian saw Ye Hua.

Ye Hua was sitting quietly at the table, his right hand resting by his side, only his left hand propped on the table as he looked through official documents. Bai Qian knew that he had consumed cultivation retrieving the divine herbs and refining the elixir. Seeing Ye Hua's bloodless face, like a sheet of white paper, Bai Qian didn't know how much cultivation Ye Hua had left in this body.

Her eyes welled up, she held back her tears, and forced a smile as she looked at Ye Hua. Ye Hua smiled faintly as he looked at Bai Qian. Bai Qian stepped forward, wanting to reach out to check Ye Hua's pulse. Ye Hua, with a reverse flick of his hand, grasped Bai Qian's hand and couldn't help but frown, saying, "What's wrong with your aura?"

Bai Qian lowered her gaze and said, "I just used the Soul Chasing Technique and got distracted for a moment, spitting out two mouthfuls of blood, that's all." Ye Hua said calmly, "I know you're anxious to care for Mo Yuan, but you should also take care of your own body. If you collapse just when Mo Yuan wakes up, wouldn't that be putting the cart before the horse?"

Seeing Ye Hua in this state, yet still only concerned with telling her to take care of her body, Bai Qian finally couldn't help but ask, "What did those four divine beasts in Dongying look like? The elixir Zhe Yan brought me, you refined it using your cultivation, didn't you? How much cultivation do you have left now?"

Ye Hua paused for a moment, putting on a nonchalant expression, and told Bai Qian, "A few days ago, the Heavenly Monarch ordered me to go to Dongying to destroy the divine herbs, so I brought back a few for you along the way. But those few divine beasts really weren't much."

Bai Qian saw that Ye Hua's right hand was feigning injury and deliberately said, "Today I only saw you using your left hand to hold tea and read documents. Shouldn't your right hand move a bit too?" Ye Hua lowered his gaze and said, "I was just bitten by that Taotie beast. I've already applied medicine, it's nothing serious." Bai Qian had lived for one hundred and forty thousand years; nothing in this world could be hidden from her.

That Taotie beast was always stubborn; it wouldn't stop until it bit off whatever was in its mouth, bone and skin included. But since Ye Hua intentionally didn't want her to worry, Bai Qian suppressed the grief in her heart and didn't expose him. She decided to pretend she didn't know. Bai Qian saw that Ye Hua was currently forcing himself, his body likely unable to bear it much longer, but he didn't want her to know.

Bai Qian made an excuse that she still needed to go down and look after the eldest prince of Xihai, then left in a hurry. As she turned, Bai Qian was already sobbing uncontrollably. As soon as Bai Qian left the Nine Heavens, she rushed frantically to find Zhe Yan.

Zhe Yan already felt truly guilty about Ye Hua's matter, and unable to withstand Bai Qian's relentless questioning, he had no choice but to fully inform her about Ye Hua retrieving the divine herbs and refining the elixir. Zhe Yan sighed, "Although your husband is still young, he plans things with extreme steadiness. He kept you rooted in Xihai, guarding the Soul Gathering Lamp for three days and three nights, unable to leave.

He himself went to Dongying to retrieve the divine herbs, refined them into an elixir using his cultivation, and rushed to give you the elixir before Die Yong woke up. It's just a pity for that excellent cultivation; it's now completely dispersed." How could Bai Qian not know in her heart that everything Ye Hua did was to help her save Mo Yuan, and even so that she wouldn't feel indebted, he kept everything a secret and didn't tell her.

After knowing the truth, Bai Qian was even more restless. At this moment, she only wanted to stay by Ye Hua's side, to be with him constantly. Bai Qian quietly came to Ye Hua's sleeping chambers late at night, initially thinking of just secretly guarding him while he slept, but she was discovered by Ye Hua. Ye Hua frowned upon seeing Bai Qian and asked, "Hurrying here like this, did something happen to Die Yong?"

Bai Qian gave a dry laugh and said calmly, "The matter in Xihai is settled. I just remembered his injuries and thought it might be inconvenient for him to pour tea or water, so I came up to look after him." Bai Qian knew in her heart that since Ye Hua intended to hide things from her, to put his mind at ease, she should continue to pretend not to know.

Ye Hua smiled slightly, patted the edge of the bed, and said, "Qianqian, come here." Bai Qian's ears turned red, and she said, "I'd better just squeeze in with A'Li." Just as she was about to turn and leave, Ye Hua extinguished the candlelight, embraced Bai Qian from behind, and whispered in her ear, "Now I'm only holding you with one hand. If you don't want to, you can break free."

Bai Qian truly struggled for a moment, then silently hugged Ye Hua's arm and said, "Is it okay if I only take up half your bed?" Ye Hua laughed and said, "With your build, I'm afraid you can't even take up half my bed." Bai Qian curled up in the corner of the bed. Ye Hua gave a pull and drew the quilt from Bai Qian onto himself.

He turned over and said, "Are you sleeping in my arms tonight, or curled up in the corner of the bed?" Bai Qian was genuinely shy and said, "We can both curl up in the corner." As soon as she finished speaking, her face turned red. Ye Hua chuckled softly, "That's a good idea." In the middle of the night, Ye Hua suppressed the urge to cough up blood, and quietly got out of bed. Bai Qian's heart jumped.

She listened intently and heard Ye Hua coughing in a series outside the chamber, forcibly suppressing the sound very low. Grief welled up in Bai Qian. Ye Hua returned to bed after a while. Bai Qian suppressed her sobs, turned around, leaned against Ye Hua, stretched out her arms to wrap around his neck, and hugged him tightly. Chengyu and A'Li returned from the Lingshan Dharma Assembly.

A'Li was dragging sugarcane longer than himself, and happily asked Chengyu, "So much sugarcane, Mommy will definitely be happy to see it, right?" Chengyu smiled and said, "Of course." As they were talking, Chengyu looked up and saw Lingbao Heavenly Venerable and the Divine Monarch talking ahead. She quickly took A'Li and hid to the side. Lingbao Heavenly Venerable sighed and said that ancient High Gods had returned to chaos after undergoing their tribulations.

Now the Divine Monarch must also have undergone a tribulation, right? The Divine Monarch's eyes were deep, and he said word by word, "Consider it so. A tribulation of the heart." Chengyu was greatly shocked by this conversation. Could it be that the Divine Monarch was also returning to chaos? She thought she must quickly tell Bai Fengjiu about this.

Episode 48 Recap

Yan Zhi came to Kunlun Void to see Zi Lan. She was stopped by the second senior brother. The pain of losing their master from seventy thousand years ago was still present. Even though the divine Tribes had reconciled with the Winged Tribe, the hatred from the Winged Realm had never diminished for the disciples of Kunlun Void.

When Li Jing blocked Yan Zhi and drew his sword against the second senior brother, Zi Lan appeared in time to quell the fight. Yan Zhi pleaded with Zi Lan, saying that to save this child, she had to borrow the alchemy furnace of Kunlun Void.

Zi Lan knew that Yan Zhi had lost all her cultivation trying to refine the elixir, but the demonic energy on the child was too heavy now, and Yan Zhi's cultivation alone was not enough to refine the elixir. Zi Lan, without telling Yan Zhi, refined his half-lifetime of cultivation into an elixir. Bai Qian sat with Ye Hua in a pavilion by the Jade Pool. Ye Hua was drawing a formation diagram.

Ever since Bai Qian inherited Mo Yuan's mantle, this subject of formation diagrams had given her a headache. So, she sat by his side, admiring the way Ye Hua held his brush, muttering that his posture was quite handsome and she just wanted to look a few more times. Chengyu returned to the Celestial Palace with A'Li and happened to see Ye Hua and Bai Qian together.

It was Chengyu's first time seeing a female High Goddess in her life, and she wanted to touch Bai Qian. A'Li blocked Ye Hua and Bai Qian, saying, "Mother belongs to Father Lord. Only Father Lord can touch her. Why are you touching?" Ye Hua and Bai Qian looked at A'Li, acting like such a little adult, and thought he was truly adorable.

Ye Hua asked Bai Qian and A'Li to sit together, as he wanted to paint a portrait of them. Chengyu watched eagerly and also wanted to be in the painting. Ye Hua agreed. But after several hours, Ye Hua finally finished the painting, and Chengyu felt terribly wronged.

She had waited eagerly for several hours, but her figure wasn't even on the painting, not even half a corner of her clothes, and she was laughed at by A'Li for half the day. Seeing Chengyu's pitiful appearance, Bai Qian comforted her, saying, "Ye Hua has been weak recently, and painting with one hand is very tiring. Be more understanding." Chengyu coughed twice, "We-weak?" Little A'Li innocently asked what "weak" meant.

Did it mean Father Lord could carry A'Li, but couldn't carry Mother? Bai Qian was awkwardly unsure how to answer when suddenly her feet left the ground. By the time she recovered, she had been hoisted onto Ye Hua's shoulder, leaving the bewildered Chengyu and A'Li staring at each other, and he headed straight back to the Xi Wu Palace. Ye Hua strode quickly, carrying Bai Qian unceremoniously all the way back to the Purple Cloud Palace.

The celestial maidens in the palace were very sensible and closed the doors, retreating outside. Ye Hua placed Bai Qian on the couch, their noses touching. Bai Qian shyly told Ye Hua that she didn't want to go to Yi Lan Fang Hua. After all, it was where A'Li's birth mother resided, and the dead should be respected. She also asked Nai Nai to lock up her things.

Ye Hua told her that he had already burned all of Su Su's belongings. Bai Qian asked Ye Hua if he still remembered the matter of her wanting to break off their engagement in Xihai. Ye Hua stiffened and lowered his eyelids, saying he remembered.

Bai Qian leaned her head against Ye Hua's neck and said that at the time she hadn't seen her own heart clearly, but now that she and Ye Hua were mutually in love, breaking off the engagement was naturally impossible. Bai Qian calculated the dates and said the second day of the ninth month was a good day. She asked Ye Hua if they should hold the wedding on that day.

Ye Hua's eyelids shot up, and he asked in a trembling voice, "Qianqian, could you say that again?" Bai Qian blushed slightly, looked into Ye Hua's eyes, and told him word by word, "Ye Hua, I love you. I truly love you very much. I want to be with you forever." Ye Hua just looked at Bai Qian without replying.

Bai Qian worried inwardly that women from Green Hills were always so straightforward, but Ye Hua had grown up in the Nine Heavens with its strict rules; would he think her words were too frivolous? Suddenly, Ye Hua flipped over and pressed Bai Qian beneath him, holding her tightly against him. Ye Hua leaned close to Bai Qian's ear and said in a husky voice, "Qianqian, have another child for me."

Bai Qian felt there was something not quite right about these words, but for the moment she was too lost in Ye Hua's passionate affection to think further. Zi Lan took the divine herbs that Yan Zhi had brought. Li Jing and Yan Zhi waited at the foot of the mountain. Li Jing told Yan Zhi that Si Yin was High Goddess Bai Qian. Yan Zhi sighed and exclaimed, "So, second brother, you didn't love the wrong person after all.

It was me who kept loving the wrong person." Yan Zhi asked Li Jing why he had never looked at their child even once. Li Jing lowered his eyelids and said faintly, "This child has been dead since she was born three hundred years ago." The second senior brother brought the elixir refined by Zi Lan to Yan Zhi. He also brought Yan Zhi a conditioning prescription written by Zi Lan. Yan Zhi was disappointed not to see Zi Lan.

The infant took the elixir and finally cried out for the first time in three hundred years. Both Li Jing and Yan Zhi wept with joy at the revival of this little life. Zi Lan looked down the mountain and smiled contentedly. The second senior brother asked him why he would use half of his cultivation to save that child. Zi Lan said calmly, "Now that the world is peaceful, having so much cultivation is useless to me.

It is enough for me to guard the Boundless Sea." Late into the night, Ye Hua slowly asked Bai Qian on the couch, if she had had the chance to seal the Donghuang Bell first seventy thousand years ago, would she have gone in place of Mo Yuan? Bai Qian was feeling very sleepy and immediately blurted out, "Master's kindness to me is as heavy as a mountain. If there were a chance, I would definitely go.

None of the disciples of Kunlun Mountain would hesitate." Ye Hua knew in his heart that the woman he loved was of this character. All he could do was always stay ahead of her. Ye Hua woke up and stood in front of the mirror. Bai Qian looked at him with a beaming smile.

Bai Qian asked, "Among the celestials in the Celestial Palace, you are still young, so how is it that you look more mature than the Divine Monarch?" Ye Hua smiled without answering, and asked if she was getting up. If she didn't want to, it was fine; she could just lie in his arms and sleep some more. Bai Qian felt thirsty and asked Ye Hua to go out and order someone to brew tea.

When a celestial maiden brought the tea in, Bai Qian secretly put the elixir that Zhe Yan had given Ye Hua to nourish his vital energy and body into the teapot. The celestial maiden saw this and secretly ran to tell Le Xu that she saw Bai Qian putting medicine in Ye Hua's tea. Le Xu was greatly alarmed.

Su Jin added fuel to the fire, saying that the Nine-Tailed White Fox Tribe was skilled in using enchanting techniques, and since Ye Hua had recovered so quickly from the grief over Su Su, perhaps the medicine in the teapot was an aphrodisiac planted by Bai Qian. Su Jin also told Le Xu about Bai Fengjiu stealing the Soul Gathering Lamp, hoping to provoke Le Xu's dissatisfaction with Bai Qian.

As expected, Le Xu, doting on her son, hurried to the Purple Cloud Palace. Ye Hua privately told Jia Yun to constantly observe the Donghuang Bell and, if there was any unusual movement, not to tell anyone else, but to report to him immediately. Le Xu and Su Jin arrived at the Xi Wu Palace. Ye Hua had already known that Bai Qian had secretly put the nourishing elixir given by Zhe Yan into the tea.

After learning the truth, Le Xu was quite satisfied with her future daughter-in-law for being so considerate of her son's health and suggested that their wedding should be put on the agenda sooner. This made A'Li extremely happy. Only Su Jin smiled on the surface, but inwardly she was resentful and hateful because her plan had failed again. After Le Xu left, Bai Qian leaned against Ye Hua and complained gloomily, "Your divine Tribes have so many rules."

Ye Hua, however, was happy that Bai Qian was much more lively in front of him now. Bai Qian said playfully, "I was originally like this, it's just that after living for so long, everyone in the four seas and eight wildernesses calls me 'Aunt', so I couldn't be so unrestrained in front of others."

Bai Qian thought to herself that with Ye Hua's reserved personality, she should give her four older brothers a heads-up beforehand and ask them to mention their wedding plans to their mother and father. Ye Hua went before the Heavenly Monarch to request permission to marry Bai Qian.

The Heavenly Monarch was overjoyed, thinking that his grandson was finally going to marry a main consort, and this time he himself requested the wedding, indicating that the marriage arrangements he had made were quite proper. However, Ye Hua's father reported to the Heavenly Monarch that while Ye Hua had rendered meritorious service by destroying the divine herbs, killing the four divine beasts left behind by Father God was a transgression.

After offsetting merit with demerit, there were still quite a few sins remaining. According to the rules of the divine Tribes, Ye Hua should descend to the mortal realm to undergo tribulation. The Heavenly Monarch found this reasonable and ordered Ye Hua to descend to the mortal realm for sixty years, leaving a blank page in Si Ming's Book of Fate. Ye Hua's life in the mortal realm would depend on karmic coincidence.

Episode 49 Recap

When Bai Qian returned to Green Hills from the Celestial Palace, she went directly to find her second brother and fourth brother to discuss her idea of marrying Ye Hua as soon as possible. Although her second brother knew this marriage was personally arranged by the Fox Emperor and the Heavenly Monarch, his only concern was Mo Yuan. He had always thought that in his sister's heart, Mo Yuan was the one she loved.

Bai Qian, hearing her fourth brother's concern, quickly clarified that once a teacher, always a father. Mo Yuan had saved her from tribulation; in her heart, Mo Yuan was as close as the Fox Emperor. But regarding romantic feelings, her heart only belonged to Ye Hua. Her second brother and fourth brother were relieved after hearing Bai Qian express her feelings so clearly.

Bai Qian thought that since she was about to marry Ye Hua and become the Celestial Consort of the Nine Heavens, it would be inappropriate to also hold the position of Green Hills Empress. She decided to pass the position of Green Hills Empress to Bai Fengjiu. Bai Qian secretly told Bai Fengjiu, without her second brother knowing, to ask Chengyu to visit her in the Nine Heavens.

Bai Fengjiu was puzzled, wondering why Chengyu would ask her aunt to relay a message unless something urgent had happened with Dong Hua. Bai Qian, unaware, told Bai Fengjiu if she wanted to go to the Celestial Palace, she could ask her fourth brother for help. After saying this, Bai Qian was in a hurry to return and have dinner with A'Li, so she returned to the Celestial Palace.

Even Bai Zhen sighed, remarking, "Little Fifth is truly being a devoted stepmother these days." Bai Zhen came to the Peach Blossom Forest to share two pieces of good news with Zhe Yan: first, Bai Fengjiu was to inherit the position of Empress, and second, Bai Qian and Ye Hua were about to get married. However, Zhe Yan's face showed no joy.

It turned out Zhe Yan had long known that everything Mo Yuan had done for Bai Qian was not just out of affection for his little seventeenth disciple; it was likely that Bai Qian had been in his heart long ago. But he had slept for seventy thousand years, and the matters of the world were full of unfortunate coincidences. Zhe Yan couldn't help but sigh with emotion for Mo Yuan.

When Bai Qian returned to the Xi Wu Palace from Green Hills, she found that Ye Hua was not in the Purple Cloud Palace. Only Jia Yun was waiting for her. Jia Yun, following Ye Hua's orders, led Bai Qian to the lotus pond. As Bai Qian's hand touched the stone railing along the way, it was as if she could see a woman, with white gauze over her eyes, groping along the railing, stumbling forward.

This feeling was extremely familiar to Bai Qian. She thought to herself, had she been here before? The mist by the lotus pond grew thicker and thicker. Bai Qian was wondering what was happening when the thick mist dissipated before her eyes. Bai Qian saw Ye Hua, along with the gods of the Nine Heavens, formally paying respects to her on the stone platform below the lotus pond.

Bai Qian understood that Ye Hua was welcoming her with the ceremony befitting a Crown Prince, and also formally establishing her identity as the Celestial Consort to the gods of the Nine Heavens. Bai Qian had felt quite wronged these past few days due to the many rules in the Celestial Palace. With Ye Hua's action, all those grievances completely disappeared. Ye Hua told Bai Qian about his upcoming mortal tribulation.

Bai Qian knew it was because of those four divine beasts and was furious. Back when the divine beasts had injured the Fox Emperor, Bai Qian had disliked them immensely. Now, just as she and Ye Hua were about to get married, it was also because of them that Ye Hua had to descend to the mortal realm for tribulation. But even separating from Ye Hua for only two months made Bai Qian very reluctant.

Thinking of this, Bai Qian suggested, "Then let's move the wedding date to the tenth month. The tenth month is a pleasant early autumn month, also a good day." She thought for a moment and then worriedly said, "Although it's only two months for me, it's a long lifetime for you. Have you looked at the Book of Fate written by Si Ming for you?"

Ye Hua chuckled softly, "This time descending to the mortal realm, the Heavenly Monarch ordered Si Ming to leave a blank page for me. What kind of karma unfolds depends on personal fortune."

Bai Qian was melancholic for a while and then said, "Although you will forget your identity as the Crown Prince of the Celestial Tribe when you descend to the mortal realm, and forget that there is an uncrowned main consort here in Xi Wu Palace, you absolutely cannot attract any unwanted romantic entanglements. I am always clear in my love and hate; I cannot tolerate sand in my eyes."

Ye Hua gently stroked Bai Qian's face and softly asked, "If I attract romantic entanglements, what would you do?" Bai Qian flipped over and pushed Ye Hua down, saying, "If that happens, I'll snatch you back to Green Hills, lock you in the fox den, so you can only see me every day. You can only see me when you eat, when you read, and when you paint." Ye Hua's eyes lit up.

He kissed Bai Qian on the bridge of her nose and said in a deep voice, "I wish you would snatch me back to the fox den right now." The two agreed that Bai Qian would return to the fox den to wait for him for these two months, and Ye Hua would come to Green Hills to find her after he returned from his tribulation.

Bai Zhen couldn't withstand Bai Fengjiu's soft persuasion and took her out of Green Hills, secretly helping her go to the Celestial Palace to find Chengyu. Bai Zhen didn't want to be discovered by his second brother, so he could only go with Zhe Yan to Xihai to see Die Yong. Die Feng told Zhe Yan that Die Yong woke up yesterday feeling very much at ease.

Zhe Yan knew in his heart that Mo Yuan's spirit was probably about to return. Indeed, using the Soul Tracing technique, he discovered that Mo Yuan's spirit was no longer with Die Yong. Everyone was overjoyed. The bell of Kunlun Void rang again, and the disciples were pleasantly surprised that their master was returning. The bell sound reached the Nine Heavens. Dong Hua's gaze was deep as he said, "Mo Yuan is truly returning."

Ye Hua descended to the mortal realm for tribulation, so Bai Qian returned to Green Hills. As soon as she arrived in Green Hills, she heard the continuous ringing of the bell from Kunlun Void. Bai Qian was startled. Her fourth brother and Zhe Yan rushed back to Green Hills from Xihai. Bai Zhen's eyes sparkled as he said, "Little Fifth, today you can finally fulfill your long-held wish."

Thinking that today was a good day, Mo Yuan was finally about to wake up. Bai Qian was stunned for a moment, unable to process it. After finally coming to her senses, a few stuttered words came out of her throat, "Master. . . Master. . . he's awake? He's finally awake?" Zhe Yan sighed softly nearby, "It wasn't in vain that kid Ye Hua scattered his cultivation." Bai Qian's eyes welled up, and she nodded repeatedly.

At the entrance of Yan Hua Cave, Bai Qian suppressed her overwhelming joy and wanted to transform back into Si Yin's male appearance. Zhe Yan stopped her, saying, "Mo Yuan knew you were a girl long ago. He didn't expose you out of respect for your parents. Do you really think you could hide it from him for twenty thousand years?" Bai Qian slowly walked into the cave.

In the swirling mist, there was a vague figure sitting on the ice couch. Bai Qian hurried stumbling forward. It was indeed Mo Yuan, who had been sleeping for seventy thousand years. His expression and posture were exactly the same as seventy thousand years ago, bringing tears to Bai Qian's eyes. Mo Yuan smiled faintly, "Seventeenth, come here and let Master see if you have made any progress these years."

Bai Qian's eyes welled up again, and she tremblingly threw herself forward, feeling a mixture of complex emotions, sadness and joy, repeatedly calling out "Master, Master." Mo Yuan held Bai Qian's trembling hands and said, "This appearance as a girl is quite good." Zhe Yan and Bai Zhen entered at this moment and smiled, "Mo Yuan, you've slept for seventy thousand years, you're finally awake."

Yan Hua Cave was too cold, so the four of them went out and returned to the fox den. Mo Yuan sat in the fox den, and Mi Gu brewed tea. Bai Qian poured a cup for each of them. Mo Yuan asked Zhe Yan, "In these seventy thousand years I've slept, have you perhaps seen someone who looks exactly like me?" Zhe Yan chuckled twice, his eyes drifting towards Bai Qian, and said, "There is indeed such a person.

Your little disciple is quite familiar with him." Bai Qian could only pretend to be composed and said, "The person Master speaks of is likely this disciple's fiancé, the Crown Prince of the Celestial Tribe." Mo Yuan's hand holding the teacup paused for a moment, then after a while, he said calmly, "What is that father of yours called, and when was he born?" Bai Qian reported truthfully to Mo Yuan.

Mo Yuan took a sip of tea and said faintly, "Little Seventeenth, you've abducted my twin brother, my blood relative." Except for Mo Yuan, everyone present was dumbfounded upon hearing these words. Mo Yuan said, "Back then, Mother was pregnant with twins. When the Four Poles collapsed and the Nine Provinces crumbled, Mother God moved her fetus while mending the sky, giving birth to only me.

Father God felt deeply sorry for his younger son, so he used half of his cultivation to create an immortal embryo for his younger son and raised it in a golden lotus. Later, when Father God returned to chaos, this golden lotus was raised by me in the lotus pond of Kunlun Void." Mo Yuan paused and said, "I suppose when I sacrificed my spirit to the Donghuang Bell, it awakened him."

Bai Zhen exclaimed, "No wonder when Ye Hua was born, seventy-two multicolored birds circled the beam for eighty-one days, and the eastern glow shone for three years. So it turns out he is High God Mo Yuan's twin brother, a son of Father God!" Mo Yuan told Bai Qian that he wanted to see Ye Hua.

Bai Qian worried that Mo Yuan had just woken up and his health was not stable, so it would be inappropriate to go to the mortal realm rashly. She said, "Ye Hua is currently undergoing tribulation in the mortal realm, and I can't find him. Why not wait until Master has recovered after meditating in seclusion, and then I will bring Ye Hua to see you?"

Mo Yuan thought this made sense and decided to return to Kunlun Void for seclusion and recuperation. Bai Qian thought that Kunlun Void was desolate now and couldn't bear to let Master see such a bleak sight upon waking. Mo Yuan said faintly, "It doesn't matter." So, everyone decided to go back to Kunlun Void with Mo Yuan to take a look. Chengyu told Bai Fengjiu about Dong Hua's upcoming tribulation.

Chengyu comforted the dejected Bai Fengjiu, saying, "No matter how powerful a deity, they will eventually return to chaos." Bai Fengjiu refused to believe this fact and ran to find Dong Hua. Without a word, she hugged him tightly and told him word by word, "Dong Hua lives, Bai Fengjiu lives. Dong Hua dies, Bai Fengjiu will not live alone."

Episode 50 Recap

Mo Yuan woke up and insisted on returning to Kunlun Void. Although Bai Qian couldn't bear to let Master see the desolate state of Kunlun Void upon waking, paper cannot wrap fire in the end; Master would know sooner or later. So Zhe Yan, Bai Zhen, and Bai Qian accompanied Mo Yuan back to Kunlun Void together. At the foot of Kunlun Void Mountain, many minor deities were standing, squatting, or sitting. The immortal energy on Kunlun Mountain was abundant.

Zhe Yan said that Kunlun Void was originally an immortal mountain pushed up by dragon bones. Now, it probably sensed your return, Mo Yuan, and is welcoming you with invigorated dragon energy, which is what attracted these minor deities from all around. Mo Yuan listened without changing his expression. In order not to disturb the minor deities watching the excitement, the four of them entered the mountain gate in invisibility.

Bai Qian thought that after Master's passing, all the disciples of Kunlun Void had dispersed, and there would be no one here now. But to her surprise, as they walked into Kunlun Void, Bai Qian was truly startled. Her sixteen senior disciples, all wearing the robes of Kunlun Void disciples, stood in two rows along the stone path. It was as if they had been standing there like that for the past seventy thousand years.

The senior-most disciple stepped forward and knelt before Master. He said with a trembling voice, a few days ago Zi Lan sent word, saying that the dragon energy in Kunlun Void had greatly increased, although they didn't know what kind of sign it was. We senior and junior disciples rushed back overnight, thinking it might be a good omen for your return, Master.

Later we learned that you were recuperating your primordial spirit at my brother's place, and thought it would take you three months to return. Now you, you have finally returned. The other fifteen senior disciples also sobbed uncontrollably one by one. Mo Yuan's eyes deepened as he said, I, your Master, have made you wait for a long time. All the senior disciples and Mo Yuan entered the main hall. Zi Lan repeatedly apologized to Master.

Back then, Master sacrificed his primordial spirit to the Donghuang Bell, and Seventeenth also disappeared along with him. Zi Lan just kept saying he couldn't keep an eye on Seventeenth, not mentioning Seventeenth's fault of knocking out all the senior disciples and taking Master's immortal body at all. For all these years, Zi Lan had been searching for her non-stop in the mortal realm and the immortal realm.

There had been no news of her, and it was feared she had met a bad end. Zi Lan felt that as Seventeenth's senior disciple, he couldn't even protect his junior disciple, and asked Master for punishment. Bai Qian, hiding behind a pillar, heard Zi Lan's words, knowing that he was protecting her with every word. Her eyes red-rimmed, she could no longer hold back, and stepped forward saying, I have not met a bad end; I am here.

Bai Qian stepped forward and performed the disciple's kneeling salute to Master, explaining to her senior disciples that she was Seventeenth. Zi Lan stepped forward emotionally and said with sadness, My Seventeenth, I have searched for you for so many years! I didn't expect you to be dressed as a man pretending to be a woman! No wonder I couldn't find you!

Bai Qian laughed through her tears and asked, Senior Sixteenth, does my face really look so much like I'm dressed as a man pretending to be a woman? Fourth Brother chimed in from the side, drawing out his words, She is simply a charming girl. Only then did the senior disciples realize that the former Little Seventeenth was actually the High Goddess Bai Qian, whom everyone in the Four Seas and Eight Deserts had to respectfully address as Aunt.

They couldn't help but be surprised. Bai Qian told her senior disciples that as long as she was a disciple of Kunlun Void, she would forever be their Little Seventeenth. Mo Yuan sat in his seat, looking at Bai Qian and his disciples, his heart filled with mixed emotions. Now that Seventeenth and Mo Yuan had both returned to Kunlun Void, after seventy thousand years, Kunlun Void was finally lively again.

That night, for the first time in seventy thousand years, Kunlun Void had so many people. The guest rooms were already full. So Zi Lan came to Si Yin's place to borrow a spot to sleep. After tidying up, Zi Lan paused for a moment and said, Seventeenth, for Master's sake, you have suffered all these seventy thousand years.

Bai Qian said with a smile that in her memory, Senior Sixteenth had always loved to find fault with her and always did the opposite of her. Now that you've said this, are you still my Senior Brother Zi Lan? Zi Lan snorted, It serves you right for not being able to get married all these years! Bai Qian didn't show weakness either, saying, And it serves you right for not being able to find a wife all these years!

The two looked at each other and smiled, as if nothing had changed in the past seventy thousand years. They were still the same as they were in the past. Seventy thousand years have passed, how many great changes have occurred. Bai Qian sighed with emotion, Now to be able to lie on this small bed in Kunlun Void again like this makes all the suffering I endured before feel like nothing.

Now my heart can truly be at peace, and it will be long-lasting contentment. At that moment, Bai Qian missed Ye Hua greatly. She wanted to tell him these things too. But at this time, Ye Hua was probably just one year old and wouldn't understand these words of hers. Bai Qian wondered what Ye Hua would look like when he turned one year old. She wondered if he would look like A'Li.

After thinking about many things, she gradually fell asleep. In the following days, somehow the news of Mo Yuan's return spread throughout the Four Seas and Eight Deserts. Anyone with some spiritual roots knew that the ancient High God Mo Yuan, who oversaw music and led battles, had returned. Bai Qian and Zi Lan and others were entertaining guests from the Four Seas and Eight Deserts below the main hall.

Zi Lan said that according to legends, Mo Yuan wore a purple-gold crown, a profound wood armor, stepped in locust tree boots, held the Xuanyuan Sword in his hand, and carried a delicate young woman in his arms, and landed imposingly on the peak of Kunlun Void Mountain. Bai Zhen teased Bai Qian, saying that the first part was correct, it was Mo Yuan's attire when he went into battle.

As for the delicate young woman, it's probably referring to you, Little Fifth. Bai Qian said reluctantly, A young woman is understandable, but "delicate" is too outrageous! Zi Lan asked Bai Qian, Seventeenth, at your age now, let alone a husband, you probably have several children already, right? Bai Qian gave a dry, awkward laugh twice and said, Easy to say, easy to say! I'm getting married the month after next. I'll invite you all for drinks then!

Mo Yuan was sitting in the hall. Hearing Bai Qian's words, he put down his teacup and left without a word. Seeing Master leave like that, Bai Qian felt doubtful and wanted to follow him. Zhe Yan stopped her and said, Mo Yuan has just woken up; it's not appropriate for him to be so tired. Let him go rest. Bai Qian asked, Master just left like that, what about the immortal friends who came to pay respects?

Zhe Yan only said, Just lead them all to the front hall for tea. Zhe Yan looked at Bai Qian thoughtfully and sighed, You are doing well as a deity, but when it comes to matters of romance, you really lack insight. Bai Qian exclaimed in surprise, Fourth Brother also said that about me once, word for word! Zhe Yan and Bai Zhen looked at each other and smiled, watching Bai Qian's serious expression together.

Zhe Yan could only sigh, rubbing his forehead, You really do lack insight. Bai Qian looked confused. After the crowd dispersed, Zhe Yan came to Mo Yuan's room to drink with him. Mo Yuan asked lightly, Why did Seventeenth secretly take away my immortal body that day? Zhe Yan put down his wine cup, looked at Mo Yuan, and asked, rarely so serious, Do you truly want to know?

I'm afraid that after I tell you, you will be even more uncertain about what truly exists between you and Bai Qian, whether it is the affection between master and disciple, or the affection between a man and a woman. Mo Yuan was stunned for a moment, then said softly, Tell me, I want to know.

Zhe Yan then recounted how Bai Qian, consumed by grief and anger by the Ruoshui River, wanted the Wing Tribe to be buried with Mo Yuan. And how for seventy thousand years, she disregarded life and death to protect Mo Yuan's true body daily with her heart's blood. At that time, no one knew if Mo Yuan could ever wake up.

Bai Qian did this simply to guard Mo Yuan's true body without his primordial spirit, preventing any damage to his immortal body. Mo Yuan listened to all this in silence, lost in thought for a long, long time. Bai Fengjiu knew that Dong Hua was about to undergo tribulation and tried everything to stay by Dong Hua's side and accompany him during his final time.

Dong Hua ruthlessly pushed Bai Fengjiu away and even spoke coldly to her, but Bai Fengjiu was unwilling to leave. Bai Fengjiu's father, Bai Qian's second brother, High God Bai Zhen, truly felt heartache for his deeply devoted daughter. So he personally came to Tai Chen Palace to propose marriage to Dong Hua for Bai Fengjiu. Bai Fengjiu hid outside Tai Chen Palace, watching Dong Hua see her father out.

Unfortunately, she was still discovered by Dong Hua and could only timidly come before him. Dong Hua asked expressionlessly, Do you know what your father came for? Bai Fengjiu was confused. Dong Hua told Bai Fengjiu, Your father came to beg me to marry you. Bai Fengjiu was shocked. Her father, High God Bai Zhen, who was revered by the Four Seas and Eight Deserts, had never begged anyone. Now, for her sake, he actually came to beg Dong Hua.

Bai Fengjiu looked at Dong Hua. Even if her father came to beg him, he still wouldn't marry her? If he truly had no affection for her, why would he go to that dilapidated hut by himself? Wasn't it because he couldn't let go of her? Dong Hua's expression didn't change; he told Bai Fengjiu sternly that it was just undergoing tribulation. Bai Fengjiu summoned all her courage and pride and stepped forward to kiss Dong Hua.

Even so, Dong Hua was like a figure in a painting, expressionless, without even a hint of emotional fluctuation. Bai Fengjiu's heart turned completely cold. The Donghuang Bell has been showing constant anomalies recently. The old subordinates of Qing Cang in the Wing Realm all believed this was a sign that the old Winged Monarch was returning.

Not only did they no longer support Li Jing, but they were even waiting for Qing Cang to return and punish him, this rebellious son who was friendly with the Celestial Tribe. For a time, Li Jing was surrounded by enemies. Li Jing entrusted his son to Yan Zhi. Yan Zhi told Li Jing that no matter what her second brother was going to do, she would always support him. Li Jing looked at Yan Zhi and his son.

He knew that if Qing Cang came out of the Donghuang Bell, he would definitely not care about the millions of citizens in the Wing Realm. He would definitely make the Four Seas and Eight Deserts pay for his seventy thousand years of imprisonment. But by then, lives would be devastated, heaven and earth destroyed, and it would be too late for everything.

Li Jing went to the Celestial Palace to find Ye Hua to discuss this matter, but was told that Ye Hua would not be in the Celestial Palace for these two months. Bai Qian went to clean the alchemy room. Second Senior Brother said with a laugh that although Kunlun Void had been desolate for seventy thousand years, this alchemy room had never been idle.

As he spoke, he told Bai Qian about the day Ye Hua was severely injured, had an arm broken, and was very weak, yet still came to Kunlun Void to borrow the alchemy furnace to refine elixirs. Bai Qian's heart ached. All of Ye Hua's pain was suffered for her sake.

This was originally the master-disciple affection that she had to repay Mo Yuan, but Ye Hua, Ye Hua bore all the suffering and pain by himself, and he even hid it from her, not saying a single word. Every time she thought of this, Bai Qian's heart felt as though it was pierced by a thousand needles.

Episode 51 Recap

Bai Qian finished tidying the alchemy room. Mo Yuan came here. Bai Qian recalled that her Master had blocked the heavenly tribulation for her here before. Mo Yuan quietly looked at Bai Qian, his eyes filled with indulgence. Bai Qian truly couldn't bear it any longer.

That night, while Bai Zhen and Zhe Yan were playing chess, she quietly pulled her Fourth Brother aside and asked him to cover for her for the time it takes seven or eight incense sticks to burn, so she could make a trip to the mortal realm to see Ye Hua. Her Fourth Brother saw how anxious Bai Qian was and joked, "Are you being so sneaky just for this?

Aren't you afraid your senior disciples will see it and laugh at your romantic feelings?" Bai Qian explained that it had nothing to do with her senior disciples. She was just worried that if Mo Yuan knew his younger brother was undergoing tribulation in the mortal realm, he would inevitably want to go to the mortal realm to see him. The mortal realm has heavy turbid energy, which is really not suitable for the recovery of his immortal body.

Bai Zhen bargained with Bai Qian, saying that if he allowed her the time for seven or eight incense sticks, he wouldn't have to sleep that night. He said, "One incense stick at most. Ye Hua is just undergoing a tribulation in the mortal realm. You're sticking to him a bit too tightly." Bai Qian's ears turned bright red. One incense stick's time was enough. Just as she said this, white snow began to fall in Kunlun Void.

Bai Qian hurried to the mortal realm. At this time, the mortal realm was also like Kunlun Void, with drifting white snow. Bai Qian landed outside a schoolhouse and heard waves of clear recitation coming from inside. Following the sound, Bai Qian looked in and immediately saw a child with delicate features sitting at the back. The indifferent expression between his brows and eyes greatly resembled Ye Hua.

Waiting for them to finish school, Bai Qian saw several children teasing Ye Hua, singing, "Rice is expensive, oil is expensive, the Liu family gave birth to a little cripple. Sins from past lives are repaid in this life, the heavenly cycle has no negotiation. Even if the child prodigy knows many words, what can a cripple do?" The song made Bai Qian's head buzz. She looked up at Ye Hua's right arm, and it was clearly, clearly empty.

Bai Qian couldn't help but complain about the Heavenly Monarch, being so cruel to his own grandson, not even giving Ye Hua a complete body for his tribulation. Ye Hua's two young attendants, loyal protectors of their master, wanted to chase those little rascals, but were stopped by Ye Hua. Bai Qian understood in her heart that it was likely Ye Hua's classmates were jealous of his extraordinary talent, which led to this vicious song.

She saw Ye Hua brush his left hand over the empty sleeve on his right arm, frown slightly, say nothing, and continue walking forward. Bai Qian was very sad but couldn't reveal herself, so she could only follow him all the way. She followed him from dusk until night.

After Ye Hua's two young attendants were finally no longer by his side, Bai Qian quietly came to Ye Hua's bedside and told him that she was originally a minor immortal from Green Hills and knew that she had a predestined connection with him in ten years, so she came to see him. Although the young Ye Hua was meeting Bai Qian for the first time, he actually fell in love at first sight.

When parting, Bai Qian and he exchanged tokens. She gave him the string of beads he had given her in the mortal realm back then. This string of beads could protect him in the mortal realm, so even if she couldn't visit him often, it would make her less worried. Ye Hua took off the jade pendant from his neck and gave it to Bai Qian. Bai Qian instructed him, "You must not marry any other woman.

When I have time, I will come to see you more often. When you grow up, I will marry you." Ye Hua nodded calmly, his face red. From then on, in the young Ye Hua's heart, Green Hills became the place he would search for his entire life. - When Bai Qian and Bai Zhen returned to Kunlun Void, they saw Bai Fengjiu sitting alone and dejected in front of the door.

Bai Fengjiu, having suffered emotional hurt from Dong Hua, cried in Bai Qian's arms and said sorrowfully that she could never forget him, no matter how cold he was or how he treated her, she just couldn't forget. Bai Fengjiu asked Bai Qian in return, "Aunt, if it were you, could you forget the Crown Prince?" Zhe Yan and Mo Yuan were nearby.

Bai Qian thought about this question in her heart and said directly, "Cannot forget, I certainly cannot forget." Zhe Yan had Bai Fengjiu stay, and everyone drank and chatted together. Bai Fengjiu got drunk after just a few cups of wine and passed out. Bai Qian asked Zhe Yan in confusion why Dong Hua did not approach women. Mo Yuan told Bai Qian that Dong Hua did not approach women for the sake of the Four Seas and Eight Deserts.

Bai Qian looked at her little niece helplessly. Even Zhe Yan sighed and said, "Child, out of all the choices, why did you have to pick someone like him?" Li Jing brought the Fire Kylin to Kunlun Void. The dragon energy was dense now, so Li Jing couldn't easily approach. He knew then that High God Mo Yuan had returned to his place.

A passing minor immortal told him that not only had High God Mo Yuan returned, but Zhe Yan, Bai Zhen, and Bai Qian were also here. Li Jing left silently. Li Jing brought the Fire Kylin to the cave in front of Kunlun Void Mountain. The Fire Kylin asked Li Jing if they would be able to see A'Yin when Si Yin married Ye Hua and the wedding invitation was sent back to Da Zi Ming Palace.

Li Jing said faintly, "I'm afraid we won't see her." Li Jing stood in front of the cave where he and Si Yin had declared their love, and sighed that his past tens of thousands of years had been long and boring. Li Jing returned to the Wing Realm. Yan Zhi begged Li Jing to quickly go and tell High God Mo Yuan about Qing Cang breaking out of the bell.

Li Jing hesitated and told Yan Zhi that he couldn't say anything. He was worried that if he told Bai Qian and the others that Qing Cang was about to break out of the bell, Bai Qian would definitely go in place of Mo Yuan to seal the Donghuang Bell. Bai Qian was about to marry Ye Hua; this was her happiest time, and he absolutely could not disturb her happiness at this moment.

Li Jing had already made up his mind; no matter what, even if it meant sacrificing himself, he had to do something for Si Yin. Li Jing knelt before Yan Zhi and entrusted his son and the Wing Realm to her. Yan Zhi didn't understand what her Second Brother was going to do.

Li Jing knocked Yan Zhi unconscious, had the Fire Kylin confine her in the Land of Extreme Cold, and ordered the Fire Kylin to stay in the Land of Extreme Cold with the child and Yan Zhi. As long as the matter of the Donghuang Bell was not over, the three of them could not come out.

He also instructed the Fire Kylin to assist Yan Zhi in becoming the new Winged Monarch after his death, and to protect Yan Zhi and his child. By the Ruoshui River, the Earth God told Jialing that the Ruoshui River had giant waves today, and he didn't know why. Although Jialing didn't know what was about to happen, he had a premonition of misfortune. Zhe Yan told Bai Qian that Mo Yuan was going into seclusion.

Zhe Yan told Bai Qian to go see her Master; once he went into seclusion, they wouldn't be able to see each other for a long time again. Thinking that her Master liked peach blossoms the most, Bai Qian happily decided to go to the back mountain first, pick some peach blossoms, and replace the flowers in her Master's room. Zhe Yan wanted to tell Bai Qian something, but he hesitated. Late at night.

Bai Qian knocked on Mo Yuan's door. She saw Mo Yuan sitting in front of an ancient zither, deep in thought. The flickering candlelight illuminated his face. Mo Yuan asked Bai Qian if Ye Hua treated her well. Bai Qian answered truthfully that his kindness to her was different from Master's, but in short, it was also full of sincerity. Mo Yuan looked at the ancient zither and only said, "That's good."

Bai Qian leaned by the window, quietly watching the snow. Mo Yuan slowly played the ancient zither. Zhe Yan heard it from outside and only sighed, "What a twisted fate!" When the music ended, Mo Yuan said faintly, "It's late. Seventeenth, go back and rest."

Episode 52 Recap

Ever since little Ye Hua saw Bai Qian, his heart was filled with Bai Qian's appearance and Bai Qian's voice. He desperately wanted to find out where Green Hills was, but after looking through various ancient texts and asking his teacher, no one knew where Green Hills was. Su jin also descended to the mortal realm to visit Ye Hua. Ye Hua thought it was Bai Qian and was very disappointed when he turned around and found it wasn't.

The Ye Hua in the heavenly palace already disliked Su jin, and even after becoming a mortal, he still had no good feelings for Su jin. Su jin looked at Ye Hua's appearance as a young child and remembered how she had accompanied him when he was younger, but the more she thought about it, the more she hated. How could those women compare to the affection she had for Ye Hua?

Su jin transformed herself into little Ye Hua's older cousin and came to accompany Ye Hua. Little Ye Hua was very repulsed by Su jin. Bai Qian went to clean the wine cellar. Mo Yuan came to the wine cellar. Mo Yuan playfully teased Bai Qian, saying he hadn't expected the most slothful Seventeenth to change her nature after seventy thousand years and become so diligent.

Bai Qian chatted with Mo Yuan and asked since Mo Yuan could tell she was a female when she became his disciple, why did he break Kunlun Void's rules to accept her as a disciple. Mo Yuan asked her in return what she thought it was for. Bai Qian thought for a moment and said with a smile, "It must have been for Zhe Yan, right? Perhaps Master was also afraid of being pestered by that old phoenix."

Mo Yuan smiled without answering. Mo Yuan looked over with his eyes and asked, "If seventy thousand years ago, I hadn't sacrificed my primordial spirit to the Donghuang Bell, would you still stay in Kunlun Void now?" Although Bai Qian didn't know why Mo Yuan was asking this, she answered honestly, "Of course I would. I would stay in Kunlun Void for a very long time."

Mo Yuan's lips curved into two smiles, saying, "You are still a girl after all. When it's time for you to marry, even if you want to stay in Kunlun Void, your parents probably won't agree." Bai Qian thought of her marriage to Ye Hua, still shy like a young girl, and replied that there was no Ye Hua back then, and she hadn't thought about staying with anyone for a very long time.

Mo Yuan muttered to himself, "Yes, there was no Ye Hua back then." Mo Yuan remained silent for a moment and then asked, "Do you know why I have been tirelessly repairing my primordial spirit for these seventy thousand years?" Bai Qian smiled and replied, "Master must be for all of us disciples. That day, Master told me and my senior brothers to wait for him. Master would never disappoint the important people."

Mo Yuan lowered his eyes and looked into Bai Qian's eyes, saying, "I indeed returned for an important person." Bai Qian only assumed that the important people in Master's words were her senior brothers. Mo Yuan gently pulled Bai Qian into his arms. Bai Qian said with relief, "Master coming to the Wing Realm to save me that day was also like this. It's really good that Master is back now, really good."

Zi Lan came to the wine cellar to tell Bai Qian and Mo Yuan that there was an honored guest looking for Bai Qian in the main hall. It turned out this honored guest was A'Li. When A'Li saw Bai Qian, he happily ran over, shouting "Mother, Mother!" Everyone laughed and said that Bai Qian wasn't even married yet but already had such a big child. Mo Yuan knew this child's father was Ye Hua.

Now, hearing the child repeatedly call Bai Qian 'Mother', Mo Yuan's eyes darkened. Little A'Li didn't know whether he should call Mo Yuan 'paternal uncle' or 'Grand-master'. Bai Qian also really couldn't answer and told A'Li to wait until his dad came back and ask him. Su jin told little Ye Hua that his father had already proposed marriage to her parents. Little Ye Hua was furious and insisted on going to tell his dad to break off the engagement.

Su jin stopped little Ye Hua from going, and the two started arguing. Su jin was angry that Ye Hua kept wearing the string of beads someone had given him and tried to snatch it away. Ye Hua desperately protected the string of beads. Little Ye Hua snatched back the beads and ran out. The attendant heard the noise and quickly came in, complaining to Su jin, "How dare you touch young master's string of beads? That's young master's lifeblood."

Su jin asked him who had given the beads to Ye Hua. The attendant only said something about Green Hills. Hearing those two names, Su jin became even more resentful. Su jin returned to the heavenly palace and worked day and night, rushing to make a wooden figure based on Su Su's portrait. Bai Fengjiu returned to the Fox Den, didn't eat, drink, or sleep, and just kept crying.

Mi Gu tried to console Bai Fengjiu, saying that Aunt didn't become the Female Monarch because Ye Hua was the future Heavenly Monarch, and Aunt was going to the heavenly palace to be the Heavenly Consort, so she couldn't be the Female Monarch anymore. But the Divine Monarch was different. The Divine Monarch had already abdicated. Whether he was willing to be in the heavenly palace or Green Hills, wasn't it up to him?

Moreover, when Bai Fengjiu became the Female Monarch, she would have more opportunities to go to the heavenly palace. Wouldn't she and the Divine Monarch be able to meet often then? Bai Fengjiu felt that Mi Gu's persuasion made a lot of sense, and she immediately turned her sadness into joy. She quickly asked Mi Gu to bring her the classics on the Female Monarch to read. Si Ming came to find Bai Fengjiu.

Under the guise of celebrating Bai Fengjiu's succession as Female Monarch, he brought her the records of the Divine Monarch when he was the Ruler of Heaven and Earth as a congratulatory gift, also hoping to help Bai Fengjiu understand more about the Divine Monarch. After reading the classics, Bai Fengjiu's face turned pale. She looked at Si Ming and said, "No wonder even Aunt told me to let him go."

Si Ming advised Bai Fengjiu that when the Divine Monarch descended to the mortal realm for tribulation, it wasn't just to experience the six human sufferings. Heavenly fate in the Nine Heavens is hard to defy, but after descending to the mortal realm, the Divine Monarch could act against heavenly fate, which was also to repay Bai Fengjiu a predestined relationship. Upon hearing this, Bai Fengjiu hurried to Tai Chen Palace.

Jialun came to report to the Divine Monarch about the unusual movement of the Donghuang Bell. The Divine Monarch felt uneasy in his heart, thinking that Mo Yuan had just returned, and the Wing Realm was already beginning to stir; something was likely about to happen. Bai Fengjiu arrived at Tai Chen Palace and accidentally knocked the Divine Monarch over with her magical power. The Divine Monarch, who had lost all his magical power, was injured by Bai Fengjiu's action.

Bai Fengjiu knew that what Si Ming had told her about the Divine Monarch losing all his magical power after returning from the mortal realm was true. Bai Fengjiu asked in a trembling voice, "You are so heartless towards me because your name is not on the Stone of Three Lives, right?" The Divine Monarch hardened his heart once again and told Bai Fengjiu that his name would not appear on the Stone of Three Lives.

Not just Bai Fengjiu, but he would have no predestined relationship with anyone. Bai Fengjiu's eyes were resolute. She drew out the Divine Monarch's sword and said decisively, "I don't believe your name won't appear on the Stone of Three Lives!" As soon as the words fell, she cut off one of her tails with the sword.

Bai Fengjiu endured the intense pain of cutting off her tail and said, "Among the Green Hills Fox Tribe, every tail cut off can condense into a deep obsession and transform into a magical artifact. I will definitely go to the Stone of Three Lives and carve Dong Hua's name on it." Bai Fengjiu endured the severe pain all the way, thinking about what Si Ming had told her about the Rebellion of the Four Seas.

The Divine Monarch, for the sake of the Four Seas and Eight Deserts, and to make himself invincible, personally destroyed his name on the Stone of Three Lives. No matter what happened, it would be an ill-fated relationship for him. Bai Fengjiu came before the Stone of Three Lives. She didn't believe it. She didn't believe there wouldn't be a predestined relationship between her and the Divine Monarch.

But she searched through the entire Stone of Three Lives, and Dong Hua's name was indeed not there. Bai Fengjiu found her own name and was shocked to find that her predestined relationship was with someone else. Bai Fengjiu's heart was broken. She was determined to carve Dong Hua's name onto the Stone of Three Lives, but no matter how hard she tried, Dong Hua's name would not appear on the Stone of Three Lives.

Finally, Bai Fengjiu collapsed from exhaustion and fainted. The Divine Monarch carried Bai Fengjiu back to Tai Chen Palace and ordered Si Ming to quickly send Bai Fengjiu back to Green Hills. For a Nine-Tailed Fox, cutting off a tail was equivalent to a normal person gouging out their heart. Mi Gu frantically took Bai Fengjiu to Kunlun Void. Zhe Yan and Bai Qian rushed there in a panic. Bai Qian and Bai Zhen were both heartbroken.

Their girl truly didn't care about her own life. The Divine Monarch rushed to Kunlun Void. Bai Qian already had anger in her heart towards the Divine Monarch. In front of him, she accused him, "Knowing you cannot have a debt of love, why did you provoke Little Jiu?" Before the Divine Monarch's apology even landed, Bai Qian angrily rebuked him, "What's the use of apologizing? Can you suffer the pain of Bai Fengjiu's cut-off tail on her behalf?"

Everyone gathered around Bai Fengjiu. Bai Fengjiu groggily looked at Divine Monarch Dong Hua, thinking it was her own illusion. When Bai Fengjiu woke up and saw Divine Monarch Dong Hua sitting by her bed, she immediately curled up in his arms.

Episode 53 Recap

Bai Fengjiu had cut off her tail and was being treated in Kunlun Void. The Divine Monarch came to visit her. When Bai Fengjiu woke up and saw the Divine Monarch, she curled up in his arms. Bai Fengjiu deliberately called the Divine Monarch 'Your Majesty', as if they were still a couple in the mortal realm. Bai Fengjiu slowly recounted the time in the mortal realm when the Divine Monarch carried her while walking in the rain.

The Divine Monarch didn't speak, only looking at Bai Fengjiu with eyes full of tenderness. Bai Fengjiu asked the Divine Monarch if they could leave after the rain stopped next time. The Divine Monarch agreed, saying yes. Bai Fengjiu then smiled and said, "I know you are the Divine Monarch. I was just teasing you." Bai Fengjiu spoke sweet words to the Divine Monarch.

The Divine Monarch didn't reject Bai Fengjiu, but gently held her in his arms, full of tenderness. After Bai Fengjiu fell asleep again, the Divine Monarch gently kissed her forehead and left. Before leaving, the Divine Monarch told Bai Qian and the others not to tell Bai Fengjiu that he had been there. Bai Qian guarded Bai Fengjiu all night. When Bai Fengjiu woke up in the morning, Bai Qian finally felt relieved.

Bai Fengjiu thought about how she and the Divine Monarch had embraced lovingly the night before, and how the Divine Monarch had looked at her with doting eyes. Bai Fengjiu thought it was just a beautiful dream she had. Bai Qian repeatedly urged Bai Fengjiu not to do anything foolish again. After going through so much, Bai Fengjiu had a sudden realization.

She told Bai Qian that cutting off her tail was like dying once, and she had thought many things through. Bai Qian was happy, thinking Bai Fengjiu had decided to let go of the Divine Monarch. To her surprise, Bai Fengjiu said that there was still a long time in the future, and she would always be able to figure out a way. Bai Qian saw that Bai Fengjiu was so infatuated.

Although she knew that there would be no outcome between her and the Divine Monarch, at this moment when Bai Fengjiu's feelings were so strong, she knew that saying more would be useless. Su jin finally finished carving the wooden figure of Su Su and transformed it into Su Su's appearance. Xin Nu asked in confusion why her lady had worked so hard for so many days and what this figure was for.

Su jin said she wanted this wooden figure of Su Su to accompany Ye Hua in the mortal realm while he underwent his tribulation. Su jin believed that once Bai Qian fell in love with Ye Hua, she would be just as jealous as herself of all that had happened between Su Su and Ye Hua that day.

And this time, she intended to make Bai Qian think that she was just a substitute for Su Su, using jealousy to make Bai Qian suffer and leave Ye Hua. Su jin deliberately named the wooden figure Su Su. Several years had passed in the mortal realm. Ye Hua was now eighteen years old. Having topped the imperial examination, he was the acclaimed top scholar admired by the common people.

Su jin placed the wooden figure of Su Su in front of Ye Hua's residence, pretending to sell herself to pay for her father's funeral. When Ye Hua saw that familiar back, he thought it was the Green Hills female immortal who had said she would marry him when he was a child, coming to find him. He eagerly went forward but found that although her appearance was similar, she was not the person in his heart.

The wooden figure Su Su successfully entered Ye Hua's official residence to serve him, using his sympathy. The date Mo Yuan had set for his seclusion was getting closer. Bai Qian had been staying in the alchemy room for six consecutive days, guarding and refining the elixirs Mo Yuan needed for his seclusion. Zi Lan came to visit Bai Qian.

The two sat down to reminisce, talking about the day they went up the mountain together to become Mo Yuan's disciples. They recalled how Mo Yuan had given the magical artifact, the Jade Purity Kunlun Fan, to Bai Qian that day. Because of this, Bai Qian could only be the Seventeenth disciple, and had called Zi Lan 'Senior Brother' for seventy thousand years. These past events were vivid in their hearts as if they happened yesterday.

Now that seventy thousand years had passed, their Master had finally returned his primordial spirit to its place. Bai Qian and Zi Lan were both very emotional. Bai Qian had a hunch that Senior Brother Zi Lan must have met someone he was infatuated with, but no matter how she asked, Zi Lan refused to say anything. Bai Qian playfully teased Zi Lan and gave him a light palm strike.

But she didn't expect that Zi Lan, having dissipated half his cultivation for Yan Zhi, couldn't withstand her strike. He coughed up blood and collapsed, truly frightening Bai Qian. Although Zi Lan said nothing, Bai Qian knew that his current state must be because of that fleeting romance of his. Mo Yuan was about to go into seclusion, and all the senior brothers were also returning to their respective posts. Bai Qian asked Zi Lan what his plans were.

Zi Lan told Bai Qian that he had sworn an oath that day. Now that his wish had been fulfilled, he would definitely keep his promise and go to guard the Boundless Sea until his body returned to chaos. The next day, Bai Qian went to deliver the elixirs to Mo Yuan. Mo Yuan took the elixirs without saying a word. Bai Qian hesitated and asked if Master had any instructions.

Mo Yuan looked at Bai Qian and smiled faintly, asking when her wedding with Ye Hua would be. Bai Qian very happily told her Master that it would be in the tenth month, during the little spring. As soon as she mentioned her marriage to Ye Hua, Bai Qian was overwhelmed with joy. Mo Yuan paused, then instructed, "Seventeenth, the heavenly palace is not like Kunlun Void. There are many rules.

You must restrain your temper and absolutely must not cause trouble." Bai Qian happily told her Master, "When I was at Kunlun Void before, Master always bore the consequences when I caused trouble. I kept all of that in my heart. Now that I have Ye Hua, he will take good care of me and will definitely not let me cause trouble." Bai Qian hoped to wait until Master came out of seclusion.

At that time, she would definitely kowtow to Master and offer him a new cup of tea. After saying this, Bai Qian bid farewell to Mo Yuan. Mo Yuan stood rooted to the spot for a long time. All the senior brothers had already left Kunlun Void and returned to their respective posts.

When Bai Qian was leaving, the Second Senior Brother gave her the Soul Gathering Lamp that she had left in the West Sea, telling her that the First Senior Brother had retrieved it for her. Bai Qian only blamed herself for being careless, almost forgetting this divine Tribes sacred object in the West Sea. After Mo Yuan entered seclusion, Bai Qian thought that by now, Ye Hua should be seventeen or eighteen years old.

This age is when mortals are at their prime. She wondered what Ye Hua looked like now. Thinking of this, Bai Qian couldn't restrain her heart and left Kunlun Void for the mortal realm. When Bai Qian arrived at the Liu family, she learned that Ye Hua had already topped the imperial examination and was now a Minister. Bai Qian thought to herself, "After all, Ye Hua is the Dragon Tribe Crown Prince.

Even as a mortal, his grace is unmatched by others." Thinking this, she was even more eager to see what Ye Hua looked like now, so she quickly cast a spell and headed towards the capital city. Finally, Bai Qian saw Ye Hua in the back garden of the Minister's residence. At this time, Ye Hua was wearing dark everyday clothes and was drinking and admiring peach blossoms with a woman in white.

Bai Qian didn't know what the woman said, but it made Ye Hua smile gently at her. This smile was truly dazzling in Bai Qian's eyes. Bai Qian secretly fumed, "It's only been six days since I last saw him, has the token of love he gave me been given in vain? As expected, he has attracted this messy peach blossom romance."

Bai Qian felt jealous and was about to step forward when Su jin's voice suddenly sounded from behind her. Bai Qian turned around. Su jin slightly bowed and greeted Bai Qian. Bai Qian looked at Su jin, who was dressed in mortal attire, and frowned, asking, "Why are you here?" Su jin smiled broadly and said, "The Divine Monarch is undergoing his tribulation alone in the mortal realm.

Su jin was worried that the Divine Monarch would be lonely, so she specially made the person the Divine Monarch misses most to be by his side to accompany him. Su jin also came to take a look today, to see if this person I made for the Divine Monarch is serving him well." Bai Qian had just been consumed by jealousy. After hearing what Su jin said, she took a closer look. Indeed, that woman was a wooden figure.

Bai Qian replied with a faint, dismissive remark, "That was thoughtful of you." Su jin didn't intend to stop there. She looked at Bai Qian with an eager expression and asked, "High Goddess, do you know whose appearance I used to make this wooden figure?" The wooden figure had been facing away from Bai Qian, and Bai Qian couldn't see anything special about her for a moment.

Su jin took a step forward and asked, "High Goddess, have you heard the name Su Su?" Bai Qian's heart jolted. This Su jin truly knew her weakness. How could she not know the name of A'Li's birth mother who jumped off the Zhu Xian Platform, the wife Ye Hua deeply loved?

It was just that ever since Bai Qian knew about Ye Hua's feelings for her, she had locked away Su Su's belongings in Yi Lan Fang Hua and vowed never to open them again to avoid upsetting herself. But whenever she thought that she wasn't the first person Ye Hua fell in love with, Bai Qian always felt regretful and sad in her heart. Su jin looked at Bai Qian's expression and said, "High Goddess, there's no need to mind.

The Divine Monarch is currently a mortal and can't tell that the person in front of him is fake. Consider it fulfilling his cherished dream. When the Divine Monarch returns to his true form, even if the wooden figure still resembles Su Su, how could the Divine Monarch possibly pay attention to a fake person?" Bai Qian understood the meaning behind Su jin's words. She was telling Bai Qian that Ye Hua was currently paying attention to this fake person.

Bai Qian gave two dry laughs and said, "Aren't you afraid that when Ye Hua returns to his true form, he will blame you for deceiving him in this way?" Su jin stiffened slightly, then forced a smile and said, "Su jin merely made a wooden figure and placed her on the street in front of the Divine Monarch's residence. If the Divine Monarch had no interest in her, they would have just passed each other by.

But the Divine Monarch took notice of her and brought her back to his residence. If the Divine Monarch blames Su jin for this, Su jin has nothing to say." Su jin saw that Bai Qian did not reply and continued, "It's evident that a love that's etched into one's bones cannot be forgotten even after drinking water from the River of Forgetfulness.

High Goddess, do you know that for the past three hundred years, the Divine Monarch has been using the Soul Gathering Lamp to gather Su Su's aura?" Bai Qian was shocked. She asked herself, "Was Ye Hua trying to create another Su Su before?" Bai Qian's heart immediately surged and churned. " Could it be that Ye Hua fell in love with me simply because I resemble that Su Su?"

Bai Qian's mind was in a mess, but she still maintained her demeanor as a High Goddess, calmly saying to Su jin, "You have a good understanding of this matter of love. It's no wonder you could endure Ye Hua's neglect and stay in the position of concubine for over two hundred years.

Now that you are so sensible and have made the wooden figure so meticulously, letting her accompany Ye Hua saves this High Goddess quite a bit of effort. If Ye Hua truly blames you later, I will definitely speak a few good words for you." Su jin's smile froze when she heard this. It took her a while to compose herself before saying, "Thank you, High Goddess."

After Su jin left, Bai Qian looked at Ye Hua and the wooden figure again, feeling uncontrollably sad in her heart. Bai Qian returned to the peach blossom forest dejectedly. Bai Zhen was puzzled why she had returned in such a state. Bai Qian told Bai Zhen with immense frustration, "Ye Hua once said he liked me. I never thought much about it.

But now I'm wondering in my heart, why did Ye Hua fall for me among so many female immortals in the Four Seas and Eight Deserts? If Ye Hua truly fell in love with me because of his dead wife, then what difference is there between me, Bai Qian, and that wooden figure?" Bai Zhen consoled Bai Qian, saying it was truly petty to compete with someone who was dead.

But the fiery anger in Bai Qian's heart simply couldn't be suppressed. She cast a spell and returned all the way to Green Hills. Bai Qian returned to her cave and drank pot after pot of wine. She originally wanted to extinguish the infuriating Soul Gathering Lamp, but no matter what she did, it wouldn't go out. Bai Qian stood up, gave a wave, and with a crash, shattered the lamp on the ground.

As soon as the lamp was smashed, images began to flood into Bai Qian's mind. All these numerous events finally, finally made Bai Qian remember that after the great battle with Qing Cang three hundred years ago, she did not peacefully sleep for over two hundred years as Zhe Yan and her father had said. Instead, she was sealed into a mortal by Qing Cang and fell onto Junji Mountain.

Su Su, A'Li's birth mother, the fierce woman who jumped off the Zhu Xian Platform – that was no one else, it was precisely her, who was powerless, without memory, incompetent, and ignorant at that time.

Episode 54 Recap

Mi Gu and Bai Fengjiu came to see Bai Qian. Bai Qian told them that she was the Su Su from back then. Bai Fengjiu exclaimed, if Aunt truly was the Su Su from back then, then she must have suffered immense grievances in the heavenly palace. Bai Qian calmly told them that when she underwent her tribulation back then, Su jin had stolen her eyes.

Thinking that those eyes were not quite right with her, and it wasn't comfortable for her to keep them, Bai Qian asked Bai Fengjiu if she should take those eyes back. Bai Fengjiu truthfully told her Aunt, if Su Su truly was Aunt, then she must definitely take them back. Bai Qian recalled all the humiliation and grievances she suffered when she was Su Su. Given Bai Qian's usual clear-cut nature of love and hate, she was now furious.

After speaking, she went to the Lotus Pond to retrieve the Jade Purity Kunlun Fan and headed straight for the heavenly palace. Bai Fengjiu realized that her Aunt was going to settle scores with Su jin. She couldn't let her Aunt suffer any more losses, so she hurriedly followed Bai Qian to the heavenly palace. The guards of the heavenly palace did not recognize Bai Fengjiu and stopped her outside the palace gate.

Bai Fengjiu could only watch her Aunt charge into Xi Wu Palace alone, anxious and helpless. Bai Qian immobilized Xin Nu outside the door and went straight into Su jin's palace chamber. Su jin was truly startled to see Bai Qian and said, "A High Goddess has arrived, Su jin is extremely honored and fearful."

Seeing that Bai Qian only looked at her indifferently, Su jin forced a smile and said, "Presumably the High Goddess has come to inquire about the Divine Monarch's recent condition?" Su jin deliberately said something to provoke Bai Qian, "That Su Su in the mortal realm is getting along very well with the Divine Monarch, and she is taking very good care of him." Bai Qian calmly replied, "If that is the case, then naturally it is for the best.

However, today, I, this High Goddess, have come to pay you a visit." Bai Qian smiled gracefully and said, "Su jin, you have used these eyes of mine for three hundred years. Have they served you well?" Su jin suddenly looked up, all color drained from her face, and she said with a trembling voice, "You, what did you just say?"

Bai Qian stroked the fan in her hand and smiled, "Three hundred years ago, I, this High Goddess, underwent a love tribulation and lost a pair of eyes which ended up with you. Remembering this today, I specifically came to retrieve them. Look, will you do it yourself or shall I, this High Goddess, do it personally?" Su jin retreated two steps, collapsing onto the ground in fear, her lips trembling as she said, "You are, you are Su Su?"

Bai Qian said impatiently, "Will you gouge them out yourself or shall I, this High Goddess, do it personally?" Su jin tightly clutched her sleeves, crying and laughing as she shouted, "That woman, that woman was clearly a mortal, how could she be you?" Bai Qian angrily said, "What does it matter if she was a mortal, what does it matter if I am a High Goddess?

Just because I was sealed of my power three hundred years ago and became a useless mortal, did you presume to steal my eyes and trick me into jumping off the Zhu Xian Platform?" Su jin was already paralyzed on the ground with fear, trembling so much she couldn't form a coherent sentence. Bai Qian approached her and said, "Recently, I, this High Goddess, have been celebrating happy events and have drunk a bit too much.

My hands are a little shaky, so it might hurt a little. Please bear with it." Su jin kept retreating, shouting, "You can't, you can't!" Bai Qian found it quite amusing and said, "Su jin, how your own eyes were injured and how my eyes ended up in your eye sockets are things we both know perfectly well. Why can't I take back my own eyes?

Just because they stayed in your eye sockets for three hundred years, do they belong to you now?" After speaking, Bai Qian swiftly moved the fan in her hand. Su jin instantly let out a tragic cry. Bai Qian told Su jin, "Back then, the Heavenly Monarch quietly arranged for your eyes to be replaced with mine. Today, I have quietly taken them back.

You owed me two things back then: one was the eyes, and the other was the Zhu Xian Platform." Bai Qian paused, looked at Su jin with disdain, and said, "As for the debt of the Zhu Xian Platform, either you properly jump off the Zhu Xian Platform, or you tell the Heavenly Monarch that with your meager power, you will guard the Donghuang Bell and never ascend to the heavens for all eternity."

After saying this, Bai Qian resolutely departed, leaving behind the hysterical Su jin. Bai Fengjiu had been stopped outside the palace gate, unable to enter the heavenly palace, and was very anxious. Coincidentally, the Divine Monarch and Si Ming passed by. The Divine Monarch told Si Ming to go and see what Bai Fengjiu was doing there. Si Ming proved Bai Fengjiu's identity as the Green Hills Princess to the guards.

Bai Fengjiu entered the heavenly palace and hurriedly went to find her Aunt. She was stopped by Si Ming. Only after Si Ming questioned her did he learn the whole story. It turned out that the Su Su from back then was the current High Goddess Bai Qian. Bai Fengjiu rushed but still couldn't find her Aunt. By chance, she ran into Su jin, who was tearfully going to report to the Heavenly Monarch.

Bai Fengjiu couldn't stand it and argued with her. However, Su jin pretended to be completely innocent, instead pouring all the blame onto Bai Qian, staging a scene where Bai Qian, relying on her status as a High Goddess, bullied women of the divine Tribes arbitrarily. Bai Fengjiu couldn't out-argue Su jin and was even scolded by the tribal leaders who favored Su jin. Just when Bai Fengjiu didn't know how to clear her Aunt's name, the Divine Monarch appeared.

Seeing the Divine Monarch, everyone went to the main hall to seek judgment from the Heavenly Monarch. At this time, in the main hall of the heavenly palace, things were in chaos over the matter of Bai Qian and Su jin. Bai Qian, however, came to the Zhu Xian Platform alone, looking distraught.

Along with the three hundred years of memories came the grievances, humiliation, and her tiny, extinguished humble hopes that she, as the mortal Su Su, had suffered in Yi Lan Fang Hua on the Nine Heavens back then. These emotions made Bai Qian feel extremely desolate. Bai Qian truly could not just let go of what happened three hundred years ago, and it was also genuinely difficult for her to forgive Ye Hua immediately.

At this time, Ye Hua in the mortal realm, spent his entire life searching for Green Hills, waiting for Bai Qian to marry him. Eventually, he succumbed to excessive melancholy and fell critically ill. Before his death, he instructed the wooden figure Su Su that after he died, the beaded bracelet Bai Qian had given him should be buried with him. After saying this, Ye Hua's tribulation in the mortal realm was considered complete.

When Ye Hua woke up, he found himself unexpectedly in Kunlun Void. It turned out to be Mo Yuan. Mo Yuan had been in seclusion, but still wanted to see his younger brother. Mo Yuan told Ye Hua about his origins. Ye Hua was very shocked. Mo Yuan said that back then, Father God had placed his primordial spirit in a golden lotus. Later, when Father God returned to chaos, he entrusted the golden lotus to him.

Bai Qian used to love taking care of this golden lotus most when she was in Kunlun Void. It seemed his connection with Bai Qian was destined long ago. After hearing Mo Yuan's words, Ye Hua's heart was filled with surging emotions. In the main hall of the Nine Heavens, Su jin knelt pitifully before the Heavenly Monarch, pretending to be persecuted. The leaders of the various tribes were even more agitated, angrily demanding justice for Su jin.

The Heavenly Monarch found it difficult to decide for a moment. the Divine Monarch stepped forward and told the Heavenly Monarch that Su jin was once his Celestial Consort, so it would be inappropriate for the Heavenly Monarch to judge this matter now. The Divine Monarch took the matter upon himself to judge, as he was the former Lord of Heaven and Earth, had no concubines, and was not connected to any tribe.

The Heavenly Monarch understood that the Divine Monarch wanted him to withdraw from this matter. It seemed this was the most stable approach at the moment. The Heavenly Monarch agreed to the Divine Monarch's request. As for Su jin, the Heavenly Monarch was helpless; everything would depend on her own fate.

Episode 55 Recap

Ye Hua's tribulation ended, and he awoke at Mo Yuan's place. After Mo Yuan finished talking with Ye Hua, he returned to the heavenly palace. Si Ming found Ye Hua in front of the heavenly gate and quickly told Ye Hua that Bai Qian had gouged out Su jin's eyes, and now the main hall was in chaos. Ye Hua was startled in his heart, had Bai Qian remembered Su Su? Worried, Ye Hua hurriedly wanted to find Bai Qian.

Si Ming quickly dissuaded Ye Hua. Ye Hua calmed down and ordered Si Ming to find his Second Uncle and Third Uncle, as well as Yuan Zhen, and also the Su Su who served him in the mortal realm. Sang Ji came to pay respects to Ye Hua. Ye Hua said that he would clear Yuan Zhen's name today.

Sang Ji had originally not planned to dwell on it further, after all, it was he who had hurt the Heavenly Monarch's heart back then. Moreover, Bai Qian had ensured Yuan Zhen suffered no harm in the mortal realm. However, both Ye Hua and Lian Song believed that since this matter concerned Yuan Zhen's innocence, they needed to understand the right and wrong of it. So Ye Hua led everyone into the main hall.

In the main hall, Su jin was crying to the Divine Monarch, complaining about being bullied by Bai Qian. Just as she was speaking, Ye Hua and others entered. Su jin tightly hugged Ye Hua's leg, crying out for him to uphold justice for her. The wooden figure Su Su knelt before Su jin and called out "Niang Niang", Su jin was frightened and panicked.

Ye Hua revealed the wooden figure's true form before everyone and told them that while he was undergoing his tribulation in the mortal realm, Su jin had created this wooden figure to seduce him. According to heavenly rules, Su jin should fall into the animal realm and never be reborn. The Divine Monarch questioned why Sang Ji had brought Yuan Zhen to the main hall today.

Yuan Zhen recounted the incident of being framed by Su jin that day from beginning to end to the Heavenly Monarch and the Divine Monarch. Su jin refused to admit guilt. The Divine Monarch directly pointed out the suspicious points, that day was Yuan Zhen's first time coming to the heavenly palace, how could he so accurately find Xi Wu Palace, even if he knew Xi Wu Palace, how could he find Su jin's palace chamber among many sleeping quarters?

According to the law, framing the Heavenly Monarch's direct grandson should result in falling into the animal realm, never to be reborn. Su jin cried out that she was wrongly accused. Su jin tearfully begged Ye Hua not to be so cruel to her. The Heavenly Monarch was utterly disappointed in Su jin, and even the leaders of the various tribes had nothing to say for her.

The Heavenly Monarch ruled that Su jin should request to be assigned to the Ruoshui River. After Su jin's matter was resolved, the Heavenly Monarch told Ye Hua that his marriage with Bai Qian could not be delayed. Although everyone was congratulating Ye Hua, he felt extremely uneasy in his heart. He didn't know with what state of mind Bai Qian, after regaining her memories, would face him. Le Xu asked Ye Hua about his plans for the wedding date.

Ye Hua told his mother consort that Qian Qian had once said that the second day of the ninth month was a good day. He further told Le Xu that no matter how much had happened in the past, Bai Qian was the one he was waiting for, and besides Bai Qian, he wanted no one else. The crowd dispersed.

Bai Fengjiu asked Dong Hua if, on that day, he hadn't erased his name from the Stone of Three Lives, would he have liked her. Dong Hua did not answer Bai Fengjiu's question. Bai Fengjiu followed him all the way, and told Dong Hua that if he didn't answer her, she would keep following him.

Bai Qian returned to the fox den and coldly told Mi Gu that from today onwards, Green Hills would be closed off, and she would not see anyone. Ye Hua came to the fox den, and Mi Gu came out to relay Bai Qian's order not to see anyone. Ye Hua only said to tell Qian Qian that he would wait for her here, until she was willing to see him.

Ye Hua waited by the entrance of the Green Hills den every day, Bai Qian's past confession to him replayed in his mind over and over again. Bai Qian drank to drown her sorrows in the den, but it only made her sadder. Bai Qian didn't know if Ye Hua marrying her three hundred years ago was because Su jin remarried the Heavenly Monarch.

She also didn't know if Ye Hua's current kindness to her was simply because he felt guilty about her jumping off the Zhu Xian Platform. Bai Qian told Mi Gu to tell Ye Hua that she would not see him, and tomorrow she would go to the divine Tribes to break off the engagement. Ye Hua asked Mi Gu to relay a message for him.

If the maid who brought him back to his residence from the mortal realm to serve his mother counted as a romantic encounter, then did Bai Qian's words about tying him back to Green Hills and locking him up still count? Upon hearing Mi Gu's relayed words, Bai Qian threw a wine jar out, exclaiming hoarsely that it didn't count, none of his nonsense counted, get lost, tell him to get lost, I don't want to see him at all.

Ye Hua continued to wait at the entrance in the cold rain, still unwilling to move a single step, his eyes fixed on the fox den, just watching like that. Jia Yun went to the peach blossom forest to ask Zhe Yan and Bai Zhen if they could go and persuade High Goddess Bai Qian.

Bai Zhen and Zhe Yan both advised that matters between a husband and wife could only be handled by themselves, and things would be fine after a few days when Bai Qian's anger over the grievances she suffered back then subsided. Dong Hua was still worried about the Donghuang Bell and decided to personally go to the Ruoshui River bank to take a look. Bai Fengjiu followed closely behind him.

Dong Hua instructed Si Ming that no matter what happened, he must protect Bai Fengjiu well. Dong Hua and others arrived at the Donghuang Bell. Since Dong Hua had lost all his magic power, none of them knew the soul-tracking technique. Bai Fengjiu stepped forward and told Dong Hua that Zhe Yan and her aunt had once taught her this technique. Bai Fengjiu went to investigate Qing Cang's primordial spirit.

To her surprise, she discovered that Qing Cang's primordial spirit was not inside the Donghuang Bell. Li Jing spent a few days building an altar in the Great Purple Ming Palace. The Wing Tribe generals indignantly rebelled, intending to force Li Jing to abdicate, and for a time, Li Jing was besieged on all sides. It turned out that on that day, Qing Cang had used the blood and bones of their three siblings to create a Gu.

And Li Jing could also use his own blood to summon Qing Cang's primordial spirit. He planned to have a final showdown with Qing Cang on the altar of the Great Purple Ming Palace and bring peace to the world. Qing Cang was summoned by Li Jing, struggled in the Donghuang Bell, and was finally summoned back to the Wing Tribe by Li Jing. Qing Cang angrily cursed Li Jing for daring to imprison his primordial spirit.

Li Jing listed Qing Cang's numerous crimes and resolved to perish together with Qing Cang. But what Li Jing never expected was that Qing Cang had brought the Fangtian Hua Ji out of the Donghuang Bell.

Episode 56 Recap

Li Jing originally wanted to imprison Qing Cang's primordial spirit in the Great Purple Ming Palace and have a final showdown with Qing Cang, but unexpectedly Qing Cang brought out the Fangtian Hua Ji. Not only did he fail to kill Qing Cang's primordial spirit, but he was killed by Qing Cang instead. Because of Li Jing's death, Qing Cang's cultivation increased by over one hundred thousand years.

Qing Cang swore to take the four seas and eight realms as burial companions, and to destroy heaven and earth together. Qing Cang's magic power greatly increased, and the Donghuang Bell was on the verge of breaking. Bai Fengjiu was hit by the force of the Donghuang Bell and bounced back. Dong Hua shouted "Fengjiu" and caught her. Kunlun Void was too far away, so Dong Hua told Tian Shu to quickly go to Green Hills to find Bai Qian.

Bai Qian knew the sealing technique. Dong Hua decided to use his primordial spirit to block Qing Cang. Bai Fengjiu stopped Dong Hua, telling him that if he lived, she would live, and if he died, she would not survive alone. Qing Cang's magic power broke through the Donghuang Bell, and Bai Fengjiu stood in front of Dong Hua, suffering severe injuries. Si Ming came to ask Bai Qian to go to the Ruoshui River bank.

Bai Qian realized with alarm that something might have happened to the Donghuang Bell again, and finally emerged from the fox den. Ye Hua held Bai Qian's sleeve, but Bai Qian shook his hand off, not intending to acknowledge him. Ye Hua followed behind Bai Qian, accompanying her all the way to the Ruoshui River bank. By the time Bai Qian arrived, there were monstrous white waves below the Ruoshui River, and heavy dark clouds pressed down from above.

The tower-like Donghuang Bell swayed by the Ruoshui River bank, causing even the surrounding land to rumble and vibrate. Su jin saw that things were going badly and secretly ran away. Bai Qian inwardly cursed, charging forward to the Donghuang Bell, just as she was about to fight Qing Cang, her body was suddenly fixed in place, and she was pulled back to the bank by Ye Hua's spell. Bai Qian urgently asked, "Ye Hua, what are you doing?

Quickly release me!" Ye Hua handed Bai Qian over to Si Ming and the earth deity on the bank, saying, "Your cultivation can't defeat Qing Cang now. Let me." Bai Qian cried out desperately, "Ye Hua, you sacrificed your cultivation for Master! You are even less capable of defeating him now! You're going to your death!" Ye Hua didn't answer. Holding his precious sword, he charged into the clouds against the wind.

Qing Cang broke free from the seal in the Donghuang Bell, and the lightning and thunder from their duel reached the heavens. Bai Qian watched Ye Hua bitterly fighting Qing Cang in the sky, but she was unable to break free from Ye Hua's immobilization spell, feeling heartbroken. Qing Cang and Ye Hua fought fiercely, and the Ruoshui River bank was filled with flying sand and rolling dust, covering the sky.

Finally, the two fell back to the ground, both severely wounded. The immobilization spell on Bai Qian disappeared. She flew forward and supported Ye Hua, only to hear Qing Cang laugh three times and cough, "Today I lost to you, but I am not defeated. If not for that rebellious son of mine who injured my vitality today and the effort it took to emerge from the bell, I would never have been defeated by you, this child!"

Ye Hua slowly stood up with Bai Qian's support and said, "You still lost in the end." Just at this moment, the Donghuang Bell burst out with a bloody red light. Everyone was startled. Ye Hua suddenly looked up and asked Qing Cang in a low voice, "What did you do to the Donghuang Bell?" Qing Cang smiled triumphantly, weakly saying that he had spent seventy thousand years linking his life to the Donghuang Bell.

If he died, the Donghuang Bell would release the Red Lotus Karma Fire. Qing Cang arrogantly declared that he wanted the four seas and eight realms to be buried with him. The Donghuang Bell was unstoppable, the Red Lotus Karma Fire scorched half the sky blood-red. Ye Hua flew forward again without hesitation. Bai Zhen desperately held Bai Qian back, not letting her get close.

She could only bitterly plead with Ye Hua to come back by the Ruoshui River bank. Ye Hua looked at Bai Qian from afar, then turned away resolutely, sacrificing his primordial spirit to the Donghuang Bell. Finally, the Donghuang Bell returned to stillness, the red light flickered a few times and extinguished. A black figure fell from the Donghuang Bell. Bai Qian stumbled and flew up to catch Ye Hua.

Ye Hua's face was pale, with faint traces of blood at the corner of his mouth. He leaned in Bai Qian's arms, his black robes soaked with blood. Bai Qian tightly held Ye Hua and said, "Are you planning to swallow the blood back into your stomach again? How old are you? Even if you were a bit weak, it wouldn't be disappointing."

Ye Hua steadied his cough, clearly struggling to even speak, yet still trying to appear composed, said, "I'm fine. This kind of injury is nothing. Qian Qian, don't cry." Bai Qian's eyes were already blurred with tears. She only looked into Ye Hua's eyes and said, "Tell me, you're dying, aren't you?" Ye Hua's body stiffened, already weak and 힘없는 (unable to speak) he said, "Mo Yuan is awake. Be well with Mo Yuan.

He will take care of you, he will do better than I. I am very relieved." Bai Qian stared blankly at Ye Hua. Ye Hua panted, "Qian Qian, my whole life, my whole life I only loved you alone. Don't, don't forget me." Ye Hua's voice was gradually fading. Bai Qian roared close to his ear, "You can't die, Ye Hua! If you dare to die, I will go to Zhe Yan, get that medicine, and forget you completely!"

Ye Hua's body trembled. He forced a smile and said, "That would be good too." The last words Ye Hua left Bai Qian in this world were "That would be good too." Si Ming returned to the heavenly palace to report, telling the Heavenly Monarch that Ye Hua had sacrificed his primordial spirit to the Donghuang Bell. Le Xu Niang Niang fainted in grief. The bells of Kunlun Void tolled sadly. Mo Yuan's heart twisted in pain.

He knew that someone had sacrificed their primordial spirit to the Donghuang Bell. Bai Qian set up an immortal barrier around herself and Ye Hua by the Ruoshui River bank, allowing no one to approach. She only held Ye Hua, her eyes vacant, not uttering a word. The Heavenly Monarch sent people to retrieve Ye Hua's body. Zhe Yan sighed, "Looking at this now, Bai Qian intends to sit by the Ruoshui River bank with Ye Hua for a lifetime."

Just when everyone was at a loss, Mo Yuan arrived. Seeing Mo Yuan, Bai Qian finally regained her senses. She removed the immortal barrier and begged her Master, "There must be a way to save Ye Hua, right?" Mo Yuan checked Ye Hua's breath and said painfully, "Seventeen, prepare a coffin for Ye Hua. Ye Hua, he has already stopped breathing." Bai Qian didn't believe it, no matter what, she didn't believe it.

She asked in agony, "Back then, Master sacrificed his primordial spirit to the Donghuang Bell, and everyone told me he was reduced to ashes, but I didn't believe it, and now haven't I waited for Master to return?" Mo Yuan persuaded Bai Qian that even if she wanted to wait, she should find a proper place to lay Ye Hua. Only then did Bai Qian take Ye Hua back to Green Hills.

The gods of the divine Tribes sent by the Heavenly Monarch to retrieve Ye Hua's celestial body knelt at the entrance of the Green Hills den for several days, demanding to take back Ye Hua's celestial body, but ultimately returned without success. Bai Qian stayed by Ye Hua's side, not leaving him for an inch.

Su jin was charged because she fled the scene and failed to report the anomaly of the Donghuang Bell in time, leading to Ye Hua being isolated and helpless, sacrificing his primordial spirit to the Donghuang Bell. The Heavenly Monarch was furious and punished her, banishing Su jin from the Nine Heavens, never to enter the heavenly registry again.

Since Bai Qian kept protecting Ye Hua's celestial body, the Heavenly Monarch had no choice but to ask Dong Hua to go to Green Hills to persuade Bai Qian and bring back Ye Hua's celestial body. Thus, Dong Hua, the first prince, the third prince, and Le Xu Niang Niang went to Green Hills together.

When Le Xu Niang Niang saw Bai Qian, she trembled with anger and said, "When she was Su Su that day, Ye Hua was willing to give up even the position of Crown Prince for her. Although Su jin took her eyes, Ye Hua also suffered three months of thunder punishment for her and even jumped off the Zhu Xian Platform with her."

Le Xu Niang Niang angrily asked Bai Qian, "Now what right do you have, what right do you have to occupy Ye Hua's body and prevent us, his parents, from taking him back?" Bai Qian's throat felt dry and sore, she couldn't even make a sound.

Episode 57 Recap

Le Xu Niang Niang still refused to forgive Bai Qian. Bai Qian knelt before Ye Hua's parents and asked to bathe Ye Hua, so he could leave clean. Lian Song congratulated Bai Fengjiu, saying, "Congratulations, Little Highness, on inheriting the position of Female Monarch." Bai Fengjiu said, "Aunt previously wanted to marry into the heavenly palace, so she intended to pass the position of Female Empress to me, but now it seems that won't be necessary."

Bai Qian finished bathing Ye Hua's celestial body and arranged his clothes for him, kissing his lips. Bai Qian couldn't help but mock herself, thinking she was the Green Hills Female Empress, and he was Ye Hua, the Crown Prince of the divine Tribes. She truly could not forcibly keep him in the fox den. Bai Qian remembered Ye Hua telling her before that in his whole life, he only envied his second uncle, Sang Ji.

Bai Qian now finally understood the meaning of this envy. If Ye Hua wasn't the Crown Prince and she wasn't the Female Monarch, then she could keep Ye Hua in the fox den forever. Bai Qian cried, saying her identity was truly awkward. When she was in the mortal realm, she was not worthy of Ye Hua, and now that she was the Female Monarch, she couldn't keep Ye Hua.

Bai Qian wiped away her tears and whispered something to Ye Hua. She told Ye Hua that when he had guarded her outside the fox den for seven days and seven nights, her heart had already softened. It was just that she was a High Goddess who couldn't let go of her pride. In fact, she had already forgiven Ye Hua a long time ago. Bai Qian quietly said, "For the past few hundred years, Ye Hua, you have suffered."

Ye Hua was placed in a crystal coffin. Bai Qian instructed the people of the divine Tribes, "Ye Hua is sleeping very soundly, please lift him gently." Bai Qian requested the first prince if she could go to Wuwang Sea with them. The first prince refused Bai Qian, stating that Wuwang Sea was a sacred place of the divine Tribes. The people of the divine Tribes stood up and carried Ye Hua's profound crystal coffin out of Green Hills.

Bai Qian chased out of the den, knelt on the ground, and tearfully called out Ye Hua's name. Dong Hua and the others brought Ye Hua's celestial body back to the heavenly palace. Bai Fengjiu followed Dong Hua and the others all the way to the heavenly palace and stayed outside the palace gate. Dong Hua came before Bai Fengjiu.

Bai Fengjiu had something in her heart to ask Dong Hua; she had been worried if Dong Hua's injuries by the Ruoshui River bank were serious. Dong Hua told Bai Fengjiu that he was fine. He also told Bai Fengjiu that if he had not erased his name from the Sansheng Stone back then, he would have liked her. Bai Fengjiu was greatly startled.

Dong Hua said word by word that when he descended to the mortal realm to undergo tribulation, it was not only for Bai Fengjiu but also to complete himself. After speaking, Dong Hua turned and left. Although Bai Fengjiu finally heard the words 'like' from Dong Hua, she knew that her fated romance with Dong Hua was ultimately over.

After Ye Hua was gone, Bai Qian was utterly disheartened, spending her days in the peach blossom forest, living a drunken, dreamlike, muddled existence. Often, illusions of Ye Hua would appear before her eyes. Seeing Ye Hua smiling faintly at her, Bai Qian tightly held onto the illusion of Ye Hua and confessed that she had kept thinking, if she also turned to ashes and vanished, could she then see him?

But then she would think, if even she turned to ashes and vanished, would she no longer remember Ye Hua? Thus, it would be better if she didn't turn to ashes and vanish. At least she could still see him smiling at her. When Bai Qian looked at Ye Hua again, the illusion dissipated, and it was empty in the end. Bai Qian was heartbroken and lost. Bai Zhen truly couldn't bear to watch Xiao Wu torment herself like this.

He angrily said, "She has already lived for so long, can she still not accept life and death?" Bai Qian sorrowfully said that she had broken the Soul Gathering Lamp, and the memories from three hundred years ago had all returned. She only remembered Ye Hua's flaws and completely forgot his kindness to her. But now that Ye Hua was gone, his kindness to her replayed in her mind again and again.

Bai Qian self-mockingly said to Bai Zhen, "Back then, when Li Jing came to find me, I lectured him righteously, saying that Li Jing spent his whole life chasing things he couldn't get, and didn't cherish them after getting them. But now, now am I not the same? With the river long and the moon full, and the night deep and quiet, Bai Qian had nothing to do but sleep." In her dream, Bai Qian finally saw Ye Hua.

Ye Hua sat in the peach blossom forest, looked up, and smiled charmingly, asking, "Qian Qian, come tell me about the storybook you read yesterday." In the dream, Ye Hua explained that he had no relationship with the puppet in the mortal realm; it was just found to serve his mother.

He also explained to Bai Qian that he had never truly looked at Su jin since he was young, and who Su jin married had absolutely nothing to do with him. He also definitely did not fall in love with Bai Qian because Su jin remarried. Bai Qian leaned beside Ye Hua, repeatedly saying, "I know, I know it all." In the dream, everything was so beautiful and sweet. Bai Qian immersed herself in this dream, unwilling to wake up.

Bai Qian spoke to Ye Hua's memorial tomb, expressing her longing. She told Ye Hua that his parents said they were not married, and even his body could not be left with her. She had seen him in her dream, which was truly wonderful. Bai Qian said, "If Ye Hua can hear my longing, then often visit me in my dreams." In a blink of an eye, Bai Fengjiu was about to inherit the position of Green Hills Female Empress.

The Fox Queen helped Bai Fengjiu get ready. Bai Fengjiu asked her grandmother, "Aunt has been traveling around with Fourth Uncle for three years, will she come back today?" The Fox Queen didn't know either. Bai Yi took Bai Fengjiu to receive the homage of the Green Hills people. Bai Fengjiu's heart had always missed Dong Hua.

Earlier, Si Ming came and told her that since Ye Hua passed away, the Heavenly Monarch was overcome with grief and handed over the affairs of the divine Tribes to Dong Hua to manage on his behalf. Bai Fengjiu's heart ached for Dong Hua's hard work.

Bai Fengjiu knew that after she took over as Green Hills Female Monarch, she could no longer disregard her status and go to the Tai Chen Palace to serve tea and keep Dong Hua company. Bai Fengjiu received the homage of all the people of Green Hills. Si Ming brought Bai Fengjiu a congratulatory gift from Dong Hua. Dong Hua sent Bai Fengjiu the war map from when he fought across the Four Seas and Eight Realms with Father God.

Si Ming told Bai Fengjiu that she would understand when she opened the map. The Four Seas and Eight Realms, vicissitudes of life – what was depicted on this map no longer existed. Compared to the vastness of heaven and earth, some matters were insignificant and not worth remembering. Dong Hua, in the Tai Chen Palace, saw Bai Fengjiu's appearance as she assumed the position of Female Monarch through a bronze mirror.

When Dong Hua stood up, the reddish-red fox tail at his waist was particularly striking. Bai Qian and Bai Zhen were watching a play in the mortal realm and happened to encounter Zhi Yue, who was also watching the play. Zhi Yue asked Bai Qian for a bead to use as a tip, and the two thus became acquainted.

Bai Zhen had traveled around the Four Seas and Eight Realms with Bai Qian for three years, hoping she could awaken from the grief of losing Ye Hua. Bai Qian merely said that since she began dreaming of Ye Hua three years ago, she had been living as if the dream was reality and viewing reality as an illusion. Life was no different, just a change in how she lived. And this way of living made her happy and content, which she considered accepting the situation.

Episode 58 (Ending) Recap

Bai Qian and Bai Zhen were traveling in the mortal realm and encountered Su jin, who had been demoted to a mortal. She was enduring immense suffering in this world and would not meet a good end. Bai Qian said to Bai Zhen that she also felt the Heavenly Monarch's punishment for Su jin was a bit severe, perhaps because of Ye Hua.

Now, Su jin had repaid what she owed her, and the remaining matters had nothing to do with her anymore. Bai Qian and Bai Zhen were a bit tired from walking, so they decided to find a place to drink tea and rest. They coincidentally ran into Yan Zhi. It turned out Yan Zhi had left the Wing Tribe and was now running a tea stall for a living in the mortal realm.

Yan Zhi was very surprised to see the former Si Yin and introduced Si Yin to her second brother Li Jing's child, a lovely and well-behaved little girl. Yan Zhi sighed, saying she hadn't seen Si Yin since the battle at Ruoshui River seventy thousand years ago. Now meeting again, the world had changed greatly, and many things were different. While she was sighing, little A Li, accompanied by Jia Yun and others, ran over to find Bai Qian.

A Li sadly asked Bai Qian why she hadn't visited him for three years. Did his mother not want A Li anymore? Bai Qian felt heartbroken and quickly comforted him, saying she had slept for over three years and had just woken up and was preparing to go to the heavenly palace to find her A Li. Bai Qian asked A Li where he was planning to go. A Li stammered, telling his mother he was going to Wuwang Sea.

Bai Qian took A Li to Wuwang Sea. A Li saw Bai Qian looking forlorn and asked if his mother missed his father. Bai Qian told A Li that she had been missing his father. Father God left behind two sons in total, one was her master and the other was her husband. From then on, she would have no other men in her eyes. As she was speaking, Zi Lan walked out of Wuwang Sea.

Zi Lan led Bai Qian and the others to Ye Hua's profound crystal coffin. Three years had passed; Bai Qian had waited for Ye Hua for three years. Bai Qian looked at the profound crystal coffin, thinking to herself that now he could rest, no longer having to think about reviewing mountainous official documents, nor having to fight battles everywhere all day long. Bai Zhen quietly took A Li away, leaving Bai Qian alone with Ye Hua.

Not long after Bai Qian and the others left Wuwang Sea, powerful celestial energy surged around Ye Hua's crystal coffin, and even in the heavenly palace, hundreds of birds sang in unison. The Heavenly Monarch and others were astonished, wondering how such powerful celestial energy could be protecting Ye Hua when he had already vanished into thin air. Sang Ji exclaimed that perhaps Ye Hua had not died. The Heavenly Monarch invited Mo Yuan to Wuwang Sea to investigate.

Mo Yuan probed Ye Hua's primordial spirit and understood in his heart. Mo Yuan thought that if it weren't for the crystal coffin and Wuwang Sea, Seventeen would likely have to wait many more years. Finally, Ye Hua awoke. Mo Yuan told Ye Hua that the memorial tomb Bai Qian made for him was in the Ten Mile Peach Blossom Forest. Ye Hua finally called Mo Yuan "Elder Brother."

Ye Hua knelt and paid respects to the Heavenly Monarch and the others, then rushed towards the Peach Blossom Forest. Zhi Yue came to the theater and again ran into Bai Qian who was watching the play alone. Zhi Yue was someone who couldn't keep secrets. She told Bai Qian that she had a cousin who was extremely handsome; no woman in heaven or on earth could take their eyes off him when they saw him.

However, his fate was a bit thin; he died in battle at a young age, leaving behind his parents who were half-dead with grief and a young child who cried all day long. But for some reason, they had originally thought her cousin had vanished into thin air, so they placed his celestial body in a profound crystal coffin in Wuwang Sea.

But today, for some reason, Wuwang Sea stirred up huge waves, and the area around the profound crystal coffin was filled with surging celestial energy. She heard her parents say that perhaps her cousin wasn't dead at all. If that were true, then little A Li wouldn't have to cry all day long. The surroundings instantly fell silent. Bai Qian asked dryly, "Is that sea Wuwang Sea?

And that cousin of yours, is that cousin the Crown Prince of the divine Tribes, Ye Hua?" Zhi Yue stammered, "How, how did you know? Didn't I reveal some heavenly secret?" Bai Qian stumbled and rushed out of the tea house, soaring through the clouds and mist towards the heavenly palace. As she rushed all the way into the Xiwu Palace, she grabbed a fairy attendant and asked, "Where is Ye Hua? Where is Ye Hua?"

The fairy attendant replied, "Isn't the Crown Prince buried in Wuwang Sea?" Bai Qian's heart instantly plunged into a bottomless abyss. It turned out everything was just her wishful thinking. Bai Qian's mind went blank, and her heart was filled with emptiness. She stumbled out of Xiwu Palace. Coming out, she saw Mo Yuan, her foot slipped, and she nearly fell. Mo Yuan steadily supported her. Bai Qian urgently asked, "Master, where is Ye Hua? Where is Ye Hua?"

Mo Yuan comforted Bai Qian, "I was just about to find you to tell you about this matter." Mo Yuan told Bai Qian that back then, Father God used half of his divine power to condense Ye Hua's primordial spirit into a golden lotus. After Ye Hua was born, this divine power had always followed him. Later, Ye Hua killed four fierce beasts and obtained the other half of Father God's divine power.

Ye Hua used all of Father God's divine power to counter the destructive force of the Donghuang Bell. His primordial spirit was somewhat damaged by the collision of these two forces, so it spontaneously fell into a deep sleep, which made everyone think he had vanished into thin air. However, both the profound crystal coffin and Wuwang Sea were sacred places for recuperation, so Ye Hua only slept for three years before waking up.

Mo Yuan said earnestly, "Seventeen, Ye Hua has returned. He has already gone to the Peach Blossom Forest to look for you. Hurry and go." Bai Qian soared through the clouds back to the Peach Blossom Forest, staggering and calling out Ye Hua's name in the forest. Sunlight shone through the clouds. The peach blossoms on the trees were like the brilliant, ever-burning clouds of smoke and mist high above the Nine Heavens.

Standing beneath that tree of smoke and mist was a young man in a black robe with white patterns, leaning slightly forward, his slender fingers gently caressing the tombstone standing before him. It was like a painting, a dream. Bai Qian held her breath. The young man turned around and smiled faintly, still looking like the first time she saw him, with eyes and brows like a painting, and jet-black hair.

There were no other colors in heaven and earth, and no other sounds. Ye Hua extended his hand and softly said, "Qian Qian, come here." Yan Zhi brought Li Jing's child to Kunlun Void and coincidentally met Zi Lan. Yan Zhi told Zi Lan that she had brought the child today to thank her savior.

Zi Lan saw the little girl Yan Zhi had brought and asked in confusion, "Back then, Xuan Nv kept calling 'son, son' all day long, so how is it a girl now?" Yan Zhi smiled and said, "She was a girl all along. Perhaps back then, second sister-in-law was so focused on giving birth to a boy to inherit second brother's position as Winged Monarch, that she kept calling her that."

Zi Lan sighed, feeling that Xuan Nv's entire life was spent deceiving herself. Zi Lan pretended to be indifferent and told Yan Zhi, "This is Kunlun Void after all. From now on, you don't need to come here, nor do you need to seek me." Yan Zhi left in disappointment. Zi Lan looked at Yan Zhi's receding figure and smiled with a sense of relief.

Even though he had saved this child by vowing to guard Wuwang Sea for the rest of his life, it was enough that Yan Zhi now had someone to rely on and accompany her for the rest of her life. In Zi Lan's heart, love meant sacrificing oneself to fulfill the desires of the beloved. In the Ten Mile Peach Blossom Forest, Bai Qian leaned in Ye Hua's embrace.

Bai Qian recounted how she had always seen him in her dreams over the past three years; he would play chess and chat with her. Thus, for the past three years, she had been sleeping non-stop, day and night. Ye Hua softly said, "You won't sleep anymore now." Bai Qian gently caressed Ye Hua's face. Even now, she was still unsure if this was a dream. Ye Hua told Bai Qian word by word, "This is not a dream.

I am here, alive and well, right before you." Ye Hua spoke of their first encounter on Junji Mountain, where Bai Qian raised him as a little black snake. He stayed by her side to repay her kindness. Later, they returned to the heavenly palace, where Su Su jumped off the Zuxian Platform. Then later, he recognized Bai Qian again in the West Sea.

Across three lifetimes, whether it was Su Su or Qian Qian, she was his one and only love. In Zhe Yan's Ten Mile Peach Blossom Forest, a smile played on Ye Hua's lips as he slowly said to Bai Qian, "Ye Hua did not know that the young lady was actually High Goddess Bai Qian of Green Hills."
