Legend of Fei Episode 2 Recap
> Legend of Fei Recap
Ten years ago, Zhou Fei was trapped among thousands of soldiers and horses, falling into Tong Tianyang's hands. Tong Tianyang took the bracelet from Zhou Fei's wrist, as if he had obtained the greatest treasure in the world, and laughed uproariously. Li Sheng's father appeared like a god of killing, broke through the encirclement, took advantage of Tong Tianyang's moment of complacency to rescue Zhou Fei and reclaim the bracelet, then galloped away.
Seeing his subordinates defeated, Shen Tian Shu descended from the city wall using lightness skill. He nocked an arrow, which flew out with a whoosh and pierced Li father's back. If not for Li father sacrificing his own life to save her, Zhou Fei would have died in her childhood. He did not draw his last breath until he personally handed his niece and the bracelet into Li Jinrong's hands.
Every time the whip fell, following the sound of the whip's whistle, a bloodstain would appear on Zhou Fei. Only by recalling the scene from ten years ago could she endure this suffering of flesh and skin. Zhou Yitang, who should have been recuperating in the Hall of Repentance, heartached for his daughter and appeared to mediate. Coupled with the efforts of others to smooth things over, Zhou Fei was finally spared the punishment.
In the main hall of Disha Manor, Shen Tian Shu was not enraged by his subordinates' inability to break into the forty-eight strongholds; this was merely a test. Although Xie Yun's successful intrusion was beyond Shen Tian Shu's expectation, it was not a significant setback. He immediately ordered Tong Tianyang to act according to the plan, and a long-brewing conspiracy was about to unfold.
Up to this point, Zhou Fei still did not know where she had gone wrong, and felt even more distressed by her mother's repeated scolding without asking for reasons, leaving her overflowing with grievances. In the past, she had borne the blame for Li Sheng's troublemaking. Even though her martial arts achievements surpassed his, she had never received a single word of recognition from Li Jinrong.
Zhou Fei could accept this, thinking of her uncle who had sacrificed his life to save her, but she still couldn't understand what was wrong with saving her benefactor Xie Yun this time. Li Jinrong held her saber, bearing the safety of everyone in the stronghold. Even when she heard Zhou Fei's grievances outside, she was still angry at her childishness.
However, with the impending changes, much like the difficult "Divine Move" chess game Zhou Yitang had accidentally set, she was in a dilemma. Li Jinrong had even less time to spare for Zhou Fei's feelings. Xie Yun, still hidden within the stronghold, saw the wound on Zhou Fei's ear and, feeling guilty, lured her into the forest for a secret meeting, specifically bringing external wound medicine. Zhou Fei was quick-witted.
Using the excuse that it was inconvenient to talk, she lured Xie Yun into a mountain cave to trap him, questioning him about the reason for intruding. Wars were constant outside. Wang Lin had previously set up a memorial tomb for himself, going into battle with the determination to die.
To prevent the An Ping army from being leaderless, he could only plead with Xie Yun to risk entering the stronghold and implore Zhou Yitang to come out and take overall charge. Xie Yun's words were sincere, but he suddenly pressed his body against the sword in Zhou Fei's hand. Taking advantage of her surprise and withdrawal of the sword, he used his lightness skill to escape from her sight. Zhou Fei was furious but helpless.
She turned to visit Zhou Yitang's residence and was thus secretly followed by Xie Yun, who had feigned his escape. A melody resounded in the stronghold. This tune was composed by Zhou Yitang when he followed Wang Lin during the uprising, and it had not been heard for a long time. Xie Yun, sitting on a tree and playing the flute, saw Li Jinrong arrive and hung the An Ping Token on the branch.
The An Ping Token was merely a token; since Zhou Yitang's true presence had not been seen before, Xie Yun naturally wouldn't reveal it easily. Now that he was confident in luring out the master, there was no need to put the cart before the horse. Clearly, Li Jinrong understood Xie Yun's intention for coming, and thus she tried every means to stop him.
But Zhou Yitang came upon hearing the flute's sound, which meant he had already made a decision. A Kunpeng trapped in a shallow pool, like a mighty dragon breaking its horn. Li Jinrong understood that Zhou Yitang was never willing to close his eyes and ears and content himself with staying in one corner his whole life. She knew she was powerless to change his mind and left in anger.
When Zhou Fei, following her father's command, personally took down the token hanging on the tree, she still did not understand the significance it carried. Only when Zhou Yitang stepped out of the stronghold gate, realizing they might never see each other again in this life, did Zhou Fei suddenly regret that she should not have helped Xie Yun escape, causing her father to be drawn into the chaotic world with an unpredictable future.
Wen Yu of the An Ping Army personally led men to wait outside the stronghold gate. The close friends, who hadn't seen each other for many years, shared an emotional embrace, joking about the wine money owed from years past, which showed their intimate relationship, unbreakable by time. However, this brief joy of reunion was broken again when Zhou Fei arrived.
Zhou Fei wanted to go out with her father to protect him, but alas, she had foolishly thought herself unrivaled within the stronghold, yet she couldn't even withstand a single move from Wen Yu. Zhou Fei's broken sword in her hand instantly shattered her self-esteem and hope. Neither accomplished in literature nor martial arts, in this world, she didn't even have the right to choose or abandon.
How could Zhou Fei, who couldn't even step out of the mountain gate, talk about protecting her father's safety? The gate was tightly shut, blocking Zhou Fei's view. No matter how she cried and shouted, she could not get her father to stop and look back for even a moment. Xie Yun initially did not want to disappoint Wang Lin's trust, but he never expected that he would ultimately cause others sadness and disappointment.
It is truly difficult to satisfy both sides in the world. Xie Yun looked at Zhou Fei's tearful, lonely departing back, and his heart was filled with mixed emotions. Wen Yu rode ahead to clear the way. Before they even left the forty-eight strongholds' range, Tong Tianyang led men to block their path. The pain of having his eyes gouged out ten years ago made Tong Tianyang unable to bear it for a moment longer.
He urgently wanted to take Zhou Yitang's life to avenge this. The two groups of people immediately engaged in a chaotic battle on the spot. Zhou Yitang sat calmly inside the carriage, observing the external situation by listening. Tong Tianyang took advantage of Wen Yu being unable to break free and shot a hidden weapon directly towards Zhou Yitang inside the carriage.
In a moment of crisis, Li Jinrong suddenly descended from the sky and split the hidden weapon with a single saber strike. Zhou Yitang's originally calm eyes gained a touch of worry due to Li Jinrong's sudden arrival. Later, upon hearing that his beloved was unstoppable, he regained his composure. Tong Tianyang was forced to flee in embarrassment after just a few moves. Looking again, Li Jinrong stood firmly holding her saber, protecting the carriage, appearing majestic.
Wen Yu and everyone bowed to her, showing their respect. A gentle breeze lifted a corner of the carriage curtain, and Li Jinrong's resolute and determined back figure was imprinted in Zhou Yitang's eyes.
