Changsun Wuji confided in Fu Yao, admitting he had always known his mother, Empress Yuan, only had eyes for Zhangsun Jia. He confessed to doubting his own parentage but was too afraid to investigate the truth. Changsun Jiong was both a loving and stern father to him, the most trusted person in his life. Changsun Wuji once believed their father-son bond transcended blood. He never cared about the throne and only wished not to disappoint his father.
However, he lamented that Changsun Jiong's heart harbored only hatred. Fu Yao, hearing this, remarked that Changsun Jiong was a pitiful man who chose an endless path, dragging everyone with him. She assured Changsun Wuji that since all truths, good or bad, were now known, it was not too late for him.
Distraught, Changsun Wuji cried, feeling he never had a choice, questioning the nature of the human heart when the one he thought loved him most hated him, and the one he hated could die for him. Fu Yao held him close, promising her unwavering loyalty, vowing to always stay by his side.
She shared her belief that all their trials, from her humble beginnings at Mount Xuanyuan to the present, were like armors gifted by destiny, strengthening them for the ultimate challenge. She affirmed Changsun Wuji as the smartest and bravest person she knew, one who could not be defeated. She urged him to recover, emphasizing that the Five Kingdoms and Tianquan could not afford chaos, and both his people and she needed him.
Changsun Wuji conceded that an emperor does not have the right to be sad. In Qiongcang, Tian Ji summoned four Elders, revealing the seal stone of Di Feitian hidden beneath Changqing Palace. He feared the thousand-year-old seal could no longer contain Di Feitian, especially with half of his residual consciousness in the Yuezhuo Deep Pool already unguarded.
As descendants of ancient Qiongcang Elders, they agreed to use their combined primordial spirit to suppress the dark power and reinforce the seal, recognizing it as a temporary measure. After the ritual, the Elders coughed blood, having consumed half their martial arts, rendering them seemingly useless. They placed their hope in Changsun Wuji, questioning if he had found the "witch" and believing only he could save the world if Di Feitian's residual consciousness stirred again.
Tian Ji projected his message to Changsun Wuji in a dream, stating he was not forcing him but that the lives of the world were at stake, leaving no turning back. He instructed Changsun Wuji to bring the "witch" to Qiongcang, so she and Di Feitian could perish together, allowing the Five Kingdoms to survive. Changsun Wuji awoke, deeply conflicted, wondering how to secure peace for the Five Kingdoms while keeping Fu Yao safe.
A voice in his mind suggested that killing the chosen person of Xuanling True Leaf would remove all threat to his life, but not doing so meant continuing on the hardest path. Changsun Wuji found Fu Yao standing alone, watching the sunrise. He noted she hadn't slept for days. Fu Yao mused on her childhood, watching the sunrise from the palace, seeing the world's hardships and human evil as fleeting moments.
She recalled meeting Changsun Wuji at Mount Xuanyuan's Tiandou Competition, bewildered by his dual nature, helping and harming her. She confessed that after everything they'd been through, she saw him more clearly but had lost sight of herself, unsure which identity, from Queen of Taiyuan to Queen of Xuanji, was truly hers. Changsun Wuji embraced her, telling her only to remember she was his Fu Yao, and nothing else mattered.
Fu Yao then asked Changsun Wuji if there could be a Five Kingdoms filled with light and equality, and if she were ever gone, would he promise to be such an emperor, giving them the best of the Five Kingdoms. Changsun Wuji grew anxious, asking where she planned to go, promising to accompany her wherever she wished.
He acknowledged the many responsibilities they carried and the suffering she endured, but affirmed that she was the one thing he could not let go of, wishing only to be with her forever, even if failure was destined. During a formal court session, Changsun Wuji, having ascended the throne, presided over matters, including arranging the late Emperor Ruizong's simple funeral at Mount Green Pearl on the winter solstice.
Duan Tong, a minister, reminded Changsun Wuji of the Tianquan tradition to send an envoy to Qiongcang to receive the imperial edict for his enthronement. Changsun Wuji stated he already had someone in mind for the mission. Meanwhile, Fu Yao confided in Yuan Bao, revealing Qiongcang's demand for her death, specifically by Changsun Wuji's hand.
She knew he would never kill her, but if he did not, it would mean the death of thousands, fulfilling the prophecy that "If the witch doesn't die, the Five Kingdoms will be doomed." Pained by the thought of him living in guilt, and unwilling to let the Five Kingdoms fall into chaos because of her, Fu Yao decided to go to Qiongcang.
She entrusted Yuan Bao with a lock of her hair, asking the rodent to find her and bring Changsun Wuji to her, no matter where she might be. She hoped that if she failed to win against her fate, Changsun Wuji would be the one to kill her, as it was their inescapable destiny.
She reflected on her arduous journey, acknowledging the sacrifices of others that had sustained her, realizing she could no longer discard the marks of her destiny, which though seemingly weak, were as firm as rock. She considered herself lucky to have met Changsun Wuji. As Fu Yao prepared to leave Tianquan alone, Changsun Wuji intercepted her in a bamboo forest, having anticipated her departure. He affectionately reminded her not to leave without saying goodbye again.
He expressed his desire for her not to go to Qiongcang, but if she insisted, he would accompany her, unwilling to face the regret of not being by her side, a regret that had consumed him for over ten years. He recalled his past failure to protect her in the Xuanji palace, vowing never again to face such helplessness.
Touched by his resolve, Fu Yao agreed that since their fate was intertwined, they would face whatever came, be it destiny or an unchallengeable heavenly decree, together. In Qiongcang, a disciple informed Tian Ji that Changsun Wuji had arrived at the Fufeng Fog Sea with a woman. Initially pleased that the "witch" was returning, Tian Ji became enraged upon learning Changsun Wuji had hidden their trail, preventing his precise location from being found.
Simultaneously, Fei Yan, the Saintess of the Hall of Fantasy, issued orders to her subordinates to find them, despite the Hall of Fantasy and Changqing Hall having had little contact for centuries. Changsun Wuji led Fu Yao to his residence in Qiongcang, which was an exact replica of Tianquan's Shangyang Palace, a place he had spent ten years meticulously building.
He explained that everything in Qiongcang could be illusory, and he built this familiar sanctuary to preserve his memories of Tianquan and serve as the safest place. Fu Yao empathized with his decade of loneliness and homesickness in Qiongcang. Discovering a deeply emotional poem he had written about love sickness, she teased him, initially denying jealousy, then admitting she was indeed jealous because he belonged to her. Changsun Wuji affirmed she was his, and always would be, before kissing her.
He confessed that before meeting her, he never cared for eternity, but now, because of her, he loved the worldly world and wished to live a long life with her. A disciple then informed Tian Ji that the Saintess of the Hall of Fantasy, Fei Yan, sought an audience. Tian Ji pondered the unusual request, given the centuries of estrangement between the two halls.
Despite his apprehension, he decided to meet her, considering the critical juncture for the Five Kingdoms and Fei Yan's superior seniority. Changsun Wuji, sensing the many spies from the Hall of Fantasy searching for them, told Fu Yao he would go to see his Elder Master first. Fu Yao insisted on accompanying him, even though Changsun Wuji warned her that Tian Ji intended to capture her.
She countered, asking if Tian Ji would truly forgive him if she did not go with him. Changsun Wuji reiterated his determination to live with Fu Yao, rejecting any notion that justice required an innocent life's sacrifice. He proclaimed his disbelief in insurmountable obstacles and his refusal to accept such a fate.
