Feud Episode 19 Recap
> Feud Recap
Bai Jiusi encountered a demonic entity in the alley while taking Lin Tao with him. The entity was extremely powerful—it wasn’t just a mass of black mist but could also take on human form, and it intended to harm Lin Tao. Bai Jiusi had no choice but to break the curse and use his former cultivation, sustaining serious injuries in the process. Li Qingyue kept vigil by his bedside the whole time.
Zhang Suan and Fan Ling Er also arrived in the county where Bai Jiusi and Li Qingyue were staying, but the town was eerily silent, devoid of any sign of life. Fan Ling Er suspected that no one actually lived here and doubted that Bai Jiusi and Li Qingyue were truly present. Zhang Suan, however, was not ready to give up and kept searching everywhere. But no matter how hard he looked, he couldn’t find them.
Fan Ling Er, wanting to go off and search on her own, was given a few caring words by Zhang Suan, which made her feel quite happy. After Li Qingyue finished preparing medicine for Bai Jiusi, she rushed to bring it to him anxiously, when she suddenly sensed Zhang Suan’s presence. As Fan Ling Er continued to search for the whereabouts of Bai Jiusi and Li Qingyue, she suddenly encountered a demonic entity and engaged in battle with it.
Hearing the sounds of fighting, Zhang Suan rushed over to help. Fan Ling Er captured the fleeing entity, which turned out to be a demon child with a familiar-looking face and no apparent malicious intent. Zhang Suan and Fan Ling Er tied the demon child to a tree and questioned him about Bai Jiusi and Li Qingyue’s whereabouts. The child didn’t know anything, but explained that he wasn’t the one harming people earlier.
Upon inspection, Zhang Suan confirmed that the demon child indeed wasn’t the malevolent entity, but had merely come here in search of the Peach Blossom Spring. Bai Jiusi and Li Qingyue discovered an ancient formation. There were only two ways to break it: either locate the formation’s core or kill the person who cast it. But neither option was viable for Bai Jiusi and Li Qingyue, as they couldn’t recklessly use their powers.
Since the monkey demon child was not harmful, Zhang Suan decided to release him. Fan Ling Er scolded Zhang Suan for letting go of someone who could have provided clues. Zhang Suan told her that they should search the area for the legendary Peach Blossom Spring. Fan Ling Er didn’t believe such a utopia actually existed. One day, Bai Jiusi went to a tavern for a meal. Everyone inside was talking about the demonic entities.
Suddenly, Lin Tao rushed in, claiming Bai Jiusi was an immortal and asking to become his disciple. Shi Hua quickly took the child away. Later, Shi Hua secretly found Bai Jiusi in a secluded spot to ask him whether he was truly an immortal. When Bai Jiusi tacitly admitted it, Shi Hua thanked him for saving her child, but also asked why he hadn’t saved her husband six years ago.
Although Shi Hua didn’t blame Bai Jiusi, she still distanced herself from him. Bai Jiusi felt a slight pang in his heart. At that moment, Li Qingyue appeared and asked him whether he had ever regretted anything. While they were talking, another anomaly suddenly occurred—another demonic entity appeared to harm people. Zhang Suan brought Fan Ling Er to a manor. Fan Ling Er didn’t believe they could find Bai Jiusi and Li Qingyue there, but suddenly, Zhang Suan disappeared.
While searching for the demonic entity, Bai Jiusi found Zhang Suan. Upon seeing him, Zhang Suan immediately asked where Li Qingyue was. Bai Jiusi didn’t answer. Zhang Suan tried to chase him for an explanation, but suddenly returned to the world where Fan Ling Er was. Bai Jiusi tracked down the demonic entity, but due to his previous serious injuries, it escaped.
At that moment, a man who had just been captured by the demon appeared with a cultivator and mistakenly believed Bai Jiusi was the demonic entity. Li Qingyue appeared in time and rescued Bai Jiusi. Zhang Suan repeatedly tried to use the previous method to reenter Bai Jiusi’s world, but to no avail. Long Yuan and others found Bai Jiusi’s physical body and discovered that his soul was trapped.
Long Yuan, suspecting that Li Qingyue was using tricks to control Bai Jiusi’s soul, was eager to go to Jingyun Sect and demand his return. Bai Jiusi, gravely wounded, was carefully nursed back to health by Li Qingyue at home. She began to worry about Bai Jiusi using his powers recklessly.
Bai Jiusi told her that he had seen Zhang Suan at Yizhuang, which Li Qingyue found strange—after all, the place they were currently in was an illusion conjured by a demonic entity, and ordinary people couldn’t enter it. At this moment, Bai Jiusi truly began to understand the suffering of the mortal world and tasted the pain that pierced the soul.
