> Legend of Fei Recap
Although the toxins in Li Jinrong's body were suppressed in time and were not fatal, without knowing the poison, there was no way to detoxify it. Only by finding the poisoner could this be achieved. Li Sheng found the steel needles used for poisoning in the room, and then saw the poison hidden in the candles.
Zhou Fei remembered Mu Xiaoqiao had confessed that he did not clearly see the appearance of the person when he killed Hu Tianying back then, so she suspected that Hu Tianying was not dead. Before the incident, Li Jinrong had left a letter, originally meant to make arrangements for assassinating Shen Tianshu down the mountain in the future. It stated the location where the tokens were hidden, but now it was empty.
Li Sheng immediately ordered the mountain to be sealed and placed on high alert. Zhou Fei also investigated Hu Tianying's hiding place alone. Chen Zichen was stopped from going down the mountain, and the lost Mountain and River painting was found on them by the stronghold disciples. Zhang Bolin logically believed they were colluding with Di Sha and wanted to kill them on the spot. Fortunately, Xie Yun and Li Sheng arrived in time.
Li Sheng saw at a glance that this was Di Sha's scheme to sow discord and immediately allowed Chen Zichen and the others to leave, thus making the imperial court owe the Forty-Eight Strongholds a favor. Hu Tianying originally wanted to disguise herself and go down the mountain during the chaos. She happened to meet some stronghold disciples who were about to go block the small path, so she followed behind and killed several people on the spot.
After successfully leaving the stronghold, Hu Tianying hurried down the mountain with her attendant. More than pursuers, Hu Tianying was worried that carrying the tokens would attract the covetousness of others, and only by quickly returning to Di Sha Mountain Manor would she feel at ease. The gates of the Forty-Eight Strongholds were sealed, but Zhou Fei came chasing straight along the small path. Although she was careful enough, she still fell for Hu Tianying's dirty trick.
Even while poisoned, Zhou Fei endured the toxins and swung her saber down with force. However, her deadly blow was blocked by the female attendant, allowing Hu Tianying to successfully escape. Although this scheme showed Di Sha was a step ahead, Xie Yun and Chen Zichen did not become enemies and try to kill each other because of it, which truly enraged Yu Wenzhi.
He even promised Shen Tianshu then that as long as Di Sha helped him kill Xie Yun, he would no longer touch the Hai Tian Yi Se treasure. Unfortunately, Shen Tianshu didn't put Yu Wenzhi in his eyes at all. If Yu Wenzhi wanted to succeed, he could only make a move on Hu Tianying again. An atmosphere of vigilance and guilt permeated the Forty-Eight Strongholds.
In the midst of the crisis, Li Sheng calmly and composedly arranged the stronghold's defenses, then led several disciples and Yang Jin down the mountain together to pursue Hu Tianying. Li Yan had previously been asked by Xie Yun to go down the mountain to buy wine and was supposed to return today. Seeing that she had not returned after so long, Yang Jin inevitably felt anxious.
Regarding the matter of implicating the Forty-Eight Strongholds, Chen Zichen specifically asked Mr. Bai to stay and obey Li Sheng's orders. Through the investigation of the Travelers' Aid Gang, they learned that Shen Tianshu had already rushed to Hanshui Town to meet up with Hu Tianying, and Gu Tianxian was leading a large force to Hanshui Town. Zhou Fei was not deeply poisoned.
Xie Yun chased after her all the way and drew out all the toxins from her body, thus turning her danger into safety. Earlier, in order to save her life, Hu Tianying had revealed that there was a method within Hai Tian Yi Se to detoxify Li Jinrong. Zhou Fei and he decided to rush to Hanshui Town to intercept Hu Tianying and await support from Li Sheng and the others. Hanshui Town was full of Di Sha people.
However, Li Yan mistook Shen Tianshu for an innocent old man. Fearing he would be harmed by Di Sha, she actually took Shen Tianshu to a Forty-Eight Strongholds' hidden post to seek refuge. Shen Tianshu had heard Tong Tianyang mention that Liu Youliang had traveled with Li Yan before his death, so he immediately forced her to redraw the map.
When Li Yan realized that the person in front of her was actually Shen Tianshu, it was too late for regrets. Mr. Bai paid the price of losing several members of the Travelers' Aid Gang but still couldn't continue tracking Shen Tianshu. However, according to information transmitted by a disciple hidden near Yu Wenzhi, Shen Tianshu and Yu Wenzhi almost became enemies over the theft of the tokens.
Mr. Bai was worried that Yu Wenzhi would bring private soldiers, but Li Sheng couldn't ask for more. His intention was that only when Yu Wenzhi and Di Sha turned on each other could they reap the benefits of the fisherman.
