To Get Master Episode 20 Recap
> To Get Master Recap
Li Song’er arrived at the designated place with the letter Gu Yuan had given her, but there was no one there as he had said. She assumed Gu Yuan had been deceived, so she stopped by the roadside to eat. As she looked at the letter, she noticed the name "Li Gongye" written on it, which she realized was her own name.
She opened the letter and, after reading it, discovered that Gu Yuan had lied to her—he was planning to die just like in the "Supreme Tyrant" story in exchange for sending Li Song’er back to Zuimeng City. Li Song’er rushed back to the Sun Moon Palace. By the time she arrived, Gu Yuan was already surrounded.
He deliberately provoked Chu Mengdie and agreed with what Nan Wentian had said, even admitting that he was the one who killed both Chu Wuya and Baili Xingchen. After a round of fighting between Gu Yuan and Nan Wentian in which Gu Yuan was clearly on the losing end, Nan Wentian ordered Chu Mengdie to strike. To everyone’s surprise, Chu Mengdie killed Nan Wentian.
Chu Mengdie had previously received a solution from Gu Yuan via the storybook, which instructed her to kill Nan Wentian first and then him. Chu Mengdie didn’t know the truth behind it and tried to ask Gu Yuan. Gu Yuan claimed he had done it on purpose, believing it would be too difficult to deal with both Chu Mengdie and Nan Wentian at the same time, so he had deliberately caused discord between them.
Chu Mengdie, enraged again, took the opportunity and stabbed Gu Yuan, injuring him. Gu Yuan believed in Chu Mengdie’s character. As the Martial Alliance Leader, he knew she would govern the martial world well. Just then, Li Song’er arrived and witnessed the scene. Heartbroken, she misunderstood Chu Mengdie, believing she had been using her all along to find a chance to hurt Gu Yuan. With Gu Yuan dead, Li Song’er’s body began to turn transparent—she disappeared.
When Li Song’er woke up, she found herself back in Zuimeng City. She ran around crying, searching for Gu Yuan, but no one knew who she was talking about. She then discovered that two new servants had been hired at the estate, and they looked exactly like Liu Yingying and Han Yan. When Li Song’er saw Baili Xingchen, she kept asking him about Gu Yuan, but he had no idea who she meant.
However, an offhand comment from Baili reminded Li Song’er of something, and she pulled him along to find a street vendor selling storybooks. She found a sequel to "Supreme Tyrant", while Baili, confused, picked up a different one called "Sole Dominator". Upon reading the sequel, Li Song’er learned that Gu Yuan had deliberately arranged for Chu Mengdie to kill him. Feeling guilty for having misunderstood Chu Mengdie, Li Song’er became consumed with searching for Gu Yuan.
She began painting portraits of him, one after another. The Princess, seeing her daughter in such a state, felt heartbroken. As a mother, she couldn’t bear to see her like this anymore, so she drugged her unconscious. Using the portraits, the Princess searched the city streets and found a man who looked exactly like Gu Yuan. His name was Nan Muxiang, a traveler from out of town.
She brought him back to the residence and asked him to marry Li Song’er, promising him a lifetime of glory and wealth. But Nan Muxiang said he wasn’t in it for the money—he agreed to the marriage simply because he believed saving someone’s life was a noble cause after hearing the Princess’s story. Though Nan Muxiang looked exactly like Gu Yuan, he was not Gu Yuan. Their personalities were worlds apart.
Meanwhile, Baili Xingchen, following his father's arrangement, was set to meet a young lady from the Lin family for a matchmaking session. However, after reading the book, he had become captivated by Chu Mengdie and had no interest in the Lin girl he had yet to meet. But when he finally met her, he discovered that she looked exactly like Chu Mengdie and, just like her, dreamed of life in the martial world. She wanted Baili to join her on an adventure, and without hesitation, he followed her and left.
