Heavenly Sword and Dragon Slaying Sabre Episode 36 Recap
> Heavenly Sword and Dragon Slaying Sabre Recap
Zhao Min was amazed by Dai Qisi's beauty. Dai Qisi, not wanting to implicate everyone, decided to return with Xiao Zhao and the Persian people. Xiao Zhao tearfully bade farewell to Zhang Wuji. Dai Qisi negotiated with the Great Sage King for a long time, and they finally agreed to let Zhang Wuji and the others leave Spirit Snake Island. Zhang Wuji, Xie Xun, Zhao Min, and others boarded the boat one after another.
They saw the Grand Patriarch of the Persian Ming Cult sitting steadily on a high platform. Although she was wearing a veil, Zhang Wuji recognized her as Xiao Zhao at a glance. Everyone was stunned. Dai Qisi had no choice but to admit that the reason she came to the Central Plains was to steal the Qiankun Danuoyi manual, but she returned without success.
Therefore, she had to pass the Persian Saintess's gem ring to Xiao Zhao, asking her to return to Bright Summit to steal the manual. Xiao Zhao successfully obtained the manual, but she did not reveal a word. Dai Qisi received a pardon from the main cult and promised to respect and be close to the Central Plains Ming Cult from now on, without interfering with each other. Before leaving, Xiao Zhao wanted to comb Zhang Wuji's hair one last time.
Zhang Wuji politely refused, but he could not resist her persistence. Xiao Zhao carefully combed Zhang Wuji's hair. Zhang Wuji felt a bitter taste in his heart. In fact, Xiao Zhao had no desire to be the Persian Grand Patriarch, nor did she care about being a Saintess; she only wished to serve Zhang Wuji for her entire life. However, she was powerless to control her own destiny. Xiao Zhao and Zhang Wuji hugged each other and wept bitterly.
Xiao Zhao asked Zhang Wuji to forget her, but Zhang Wuji could not. He wanted to take Xiao Zhao and fight their way out, but Xiao Zhao knew that the Persians had already laid an inescapable net; they would only be courting death and could not escape. Dai Qisi repeatedly urged them, and Xiao Zhao tearfully bade farewell to Zhang Wuji, enduring the pain. Zhao Min watched Xiao Zhao's receding figure, her heart filled with mixed emotions.
Before leaving, Xiao Zhao had entrusted Zhao Min to take good care of Zhang Wuji, hoping they would stay together forever. Zhang Wuji wanted to take Xie Xun and Zhao Min back to the sinkhole. Zhao Min found the sinkhole cold and damp, and suggested taking Yin Li to Golden Flower Granny's hut to recover from her injuries. She also took the opportunity to express her love for Zhang Wuji.
Xie Xun vehemently opposed this and pressed Zhang Wuji, asking if he liked Zhao Min. Zhang Wuji could only declare that with the Yuan Dynasty not yet overthrown, he had no time for personal affairs. Xie Xun was deeply relieved and reminded Zhang Wuji to prioritize their great cause, then forcibly took him away, leaving Zhao Min behind, feeling downcast. Zhang Wuji and his companions moved to Golden Flower Granny's hut.
Zhou Zhiruo wanted to help nurse Yin Li, but Zhang Wuji insisted on personally taking care of her. He went up the mountain to gather herbs and ran into Zhao Min. The two immediately got into a big argument. Zhao Min went to the seashore alone, carrying out the bodies of the boatmen and the boat owner one by one, preparing to bury them herself. Zhang Wuji wanted to help, but Zhao Min flatly refused.
She felt very sad thinking that she would become Zhang Wuji's enemy once they returned to the Central Plains, but she deliberately spoke harsh words to anger Zhang Wuji. After Zhao Min buried the boatmen, she was about to leave when she stumbled and almost fell due to exhaustion, her vision going black. Zhang Wuji quickly embraced her. The two looked at each other deeply, both instinctively wanting to kiss, but they held back in the end.
Zhao Min saw a small boat and tried her best to push it away. She didn't want to return to the Central Plains; that way, she wouldn't have to be Zhang Wuji's enemy, and the two of them could live a life of love on Spirit Snake Island. The more Zhao Min spoke, the sadder she became, eventually squatting on the ground and sobbing loudly. Zhang Wuji's heart was also filled with mixed emotions.
After Zhao Min returned to the hut, she remained silent. Zhang Wuji noticed her silence and worried, but he saw that Yin Li's high fever hadn't subsided and she kept calling his name. Zhang Wuji was burning with anxiety, wanting to return to the Central Plains as soon as possible to treat her, which made Zhao Min very sad. The next morning, Zhang Wuji woke up groggily, feeling weak all over.
He discovered that Yin Li had vomited blood and died. Zhou Zhiruo and Xie Xun were both unconscious, having been poisoned by the Ten Fragrances of Softening Tendons Powder. Only Zhao Min was nowhere to be found. Zhang Wuji rushed to the seashore to search and found that the dugout canoe was also gone. Zhang Wuji concluded that Zhao Min had committed murder and fled.
Zhang Wuji returned to the hut, only to learn that Xie Xun's Dragon Slaying Saber was missing. Zhang Wuji gritted his teeth in anger, vowing to seek revenge on Zhao Min. Immediately after, Zhang Wuji and Xie Xun buried Yin Li. Zhou Zhiruo later woke up and joined them in bidding farewell to Yin Li. Zhou Zhiruo adamantly insisted that Zhao Min was responsible for everything. Several days passed in a blink of an eye.
Xie Xun's body was still very weak. He asked Zhang Wuji to detoxify Zhou Zhiruo and then take her away from Spirit Snake Island as soon as possible. Zhang Wuji felt that it was improper for men and women to have close physical contact, making it inconvenient for him to use his internal energy to remove Zhou Zhiruo's poison. Xie Xun suggested that they get married immediately, so Zhang Wuji could legitimately detoxify Zhou Zhiruo.
Zhang Wuji used the excuse that Ming Cult affairs were busy, making it unsuitable for marriage at present. Zhou Zhiruo, who had heard their conversation from outside the door, suddenly fainted to the ground. Zhang Wuji discovered that Zhou Zhiruo's poison had already invaded her internal organs and wanted to use his internal energy to remove it for her. Zhou Zhiruo firmly refused, citing inconvenience. Xie Xun urged them to get married as soon as possible.
Zhou Zhiruo knew that Zhang Wuji truly liked Zhao Min, Xiao Zhao, and Yin Li. Xie Xun quickly explained that Xiao Zhao had returned to Persia and Yin Li had already died, and that Zhang Wuji had sworn to be sworn enemies with Zhao Min. However, Zhou Zhiruo was still uneasy and forced Zhang Wuji to make an oath, otherwise, she would rather die from the poison. Zhang Wuji immediately swore that he would kill Zhao Min.
However, he did not want to betray Yin Li's deep affection and wanted to first get engaged to Zhou Zhiruo and then marry three years later. Zhou Zhiruo was naturally overjoyed, and Xie Xun also smiled broadly with delight.
