Love in Pavilion Episode 28 Recap
> Love in Pavilion Recap
Although Jia Lan’s physical body was destroyed, she was still able to manifest her primordial spirit. The old king of the Demon-Taming Kingdom had sacrificed Jia Lan and sealed Jiuhuo, then roamed the world wielding the Demon-Taming Talisman with impunity. However, he never expected that Jia Lan’s spirit could absorb the power of hatred in the world—a power beyond imagination. In one night, Jia Lan slaughtered the entire Demon-Taming Kingdom.
The countless wrongful deaths bred immense resentment, which she absorbed into her body, growing stronger day by day. Not only could she control demons, but also people. She incited them to kill each other, and the endless hatred continued to nourish her power. In this way, Jia Lan completely lost herself and became Lady Black Fox. Lady Black Fox had no physical form and fed on hatred, leaving slaughter in her wake.
That was why the three young masters of Aolai later risked everything to keep her outside the barrier. The demonic aura beneath the altar originated from the innocent citizens sacrificed back then by the old king and the Patriarch of Beishan. Among the thirty-six monarchs of the Demon-Taming Kingdom, there was one who fell in love with a female demon. He devoted his efforts to developing a method to break the Demon-Taming Talisman and recorded it in a secret chamber.
However, once the talisman was broken, the demons who had long been enslaved would lose their restraints, and all demon tamers would be doomed. Then, the demon race would retaliate in madness, returning cruelty with cruelty, and the world would descend into a living hell. Only by eliminating Lady Black Fox could it all be stopped. Wangquan Hongye’s top priority was to uncover the names of all the victims buried in the mass grave.
Dongfang Qinlan had seen how good Wangquan Hongye was to Dongfang Huaizhu, but she still felt guilty toward her masked brother-in-law. Her emotions were tangled into a mess. Li Quzhuo handed her a flower, telling her to leave everything to fate. On the last night in the Demon-Taming Kingdom, Huaizhu felt it was time to tell Qinlan that Wangquan Hongye was actually the masked gentleman.
When Qinlan learned that Wangquan Hongye was her masked brother-in-law and that Li Quzhuo was another masked hero, she became both angry and flustered. But her temper came and went quickly—she never truly blamed them for hiding the truth. After spending time together, Li Quzhuo fell for Qinlan. But when Qinlan said she liked a childhood playmate, Li Quzhuo was instantly deflated and didn’t dare confess his feelings.
Qinlan, still innocent to matters of the heart, cheerfully gave Li Quzhuo a sachet, telling him to give it to someone he liked someday. Li Quzhuo gave her a teleportation talisman in return. When activated, it could transport the user ten miles away, helping them escape danger. Back at Divine Fire Villa, Huaizhu did not go see her father but instead went alone to the bamboo forest.
Dongfang Churi came to see her, and Huaizhu told him about seeing a trace of her mother in the Demon-Taming Kingdom. She embraced Dongfang Churi in her mother’s stead. Dongfang Churi sighed with sorrow, thinking of his late wife as he lingered in the bamboo grove, lost in memory. The members of the Masked Alliance gathered at Po Tian Temple. Wangquan Hongye put on the new mask Huaizhu had given him, instantly exuding the dashing presence of a sword immortal.
He announced the addition of a new member, ranked eighth—the man was none other than Black Sword Zhang Zheng. Zhang Zheng knew the Masked Alliance was devoted to stopping the conflict between humans and demons and to breaking the darkness. Though the goal seemed distant, since Qingmu Yuan was also part of the alliance, Zhang Zheng believed in its mission. As Wangquan Hongye’s birthday approached, Wangquan Zui and Yang Yitan had Steward Fei try to find out his thoughts.
As always, Wangquan Hongye was unwilling to celebrate. At Yang Yitan’s suggestion, Wangquan Zui thought of asking Huaizhu for help. Huaizhu asked about Wangquan Hongye’s reason for not wanting to celebrate and helped him resolve his inner turmoil. Everyone then gathered to celebrate his birthday. Wangquan Hongye was very happy that day. He took out a betrothal letter and gave it to Huaizhu. Once the current crisis was resolved, he intended to formally propose marriage. As it was his first time writing a betrothal letter and he lacked experience, Wangquan Hongye prepared several versions for Huaizhu to choose from.
