> Love and Redemption Recap

Since the primal chaos began, the heavenly realm has ruled the mortal realm and the demon realm, becoming the head of the three realms. The King Asura, for his own selfish reasons, organized a demon army to resist the heavenly realm, causing endless war.

Furthermore, the King Asura had a great general under him, the Star of Mosha - Demon Maleficent, who used this power to break the heavenly realm's army and force countless heavenly soldiers and generals outside the heavenly gate. The Heavenly Emperor and King Bailin sent out more heavenly soldiers, but they could not resist.

A strange thing suddenly happened: the Star of Mosha disappeared, and the heavenly realm's savior, the God of War, crushed the demon army in one go, scattering the demons everywhere. It is rumored that the God of War sealed the residual soul of the Star of Mosha within the divine artifact Crystal Lamp, hidden in an ancient secret realm, while the primordial spirit's whereabouts were unknown amidst the chaos. Every thousand years, there is a great upheaval.

The remaining soul recovers its vitality more and more, waiting for the opportune moment to merge into one. The demon realm is also stirring. The day the Star of Mosha's primordial spirit returns will surely be a great catastrophe between heaven and earth.

The Star Official Elder reported to the demon realm master that there was an unusual celestial phenomenon; the two stars representing Demon Maleficent - the Star of Rahu and the Star of Ketu - seemed to show signs of merging into one. And it just so happened that today, half of the Star of Mosha's primordial spirit would enter Burning Ru City to undergo tribulation.

Along with the heavenly realm, other fairies also entered the mortal realm through Burning Ru City. Only after experiencing mortal affairs could they return to the heavenly realm. Most importantly, the God of War and the Star of Mosha would reincarnate simultaneously, meaning the two sworn enemies would be born in the same year, month, and day.

Their simultaneous birth would not only not hinder the revival of the demon realm but, on the contrary, they could use the Star of Mosha's divine artifact Juntian Cehai to rescue the Star of Mosha. The demon realm master was determined to obtain the two children.

However, people from the demon realm disrupted the fairies' reincarnation, causing Chu Xuanji, who reincarnated into the mortal realm as the second daughter of the sect leader of the renowned and righteous Shaoyang Sect, to be born lacking the six senses. For sixteen years, fellow disciples would often take advantage of Xuanji's shortcomings to tease her, especially her second senior brother Chen Minjue.

Fortunately, Xuanji's older sister Chu Linglong had always protected her sister and would always help punish the fellow disciples who bullied her sister. This time, Linglong accepted Master Aunt Yinghong's order to go down the mountain to prepare for the Hairpin Tournament and planned to bring Xuanji along to prepare together. It was only after Linglong repeatedly persuaded Xuanji that she reluctantly agreed. The Hairpin Tournament was a grand event where the five major sects would compete.

Linglong was full of anticipation. The disciples of Lize Palace trained by using wolf demons to win in the Hairpin Tournament. Among them, only the Master's direct disciple, Yu Sifeng, defeated the wolf demon. The Master of Lize Palace intended to pass the position of the first disciple of Lize Palace to Yu Sifeng.

He only needed Yu Sifeng to win in the Hairpin Tournament, and he would grant him the Golden Feather Token, ordering him to manage all affairs of Lize Palace. When the disciples of Lize Palace went to Shaoyang for the competition, the foremost rule they had to follow was not to remove their masks in front of outsiders. The demon realm was still searching for news of the Star of Mosha and the God of War.

After many inquiries, they only learned the whereabouts of Juntian Cehai. This matter was related to Wu Zhiqi. To find the reincarnated individuals and the divine artifact, the demon realm sent people to infiltrate the major sects. The demon realm master believed that the children born from the reincarnation of the Star of Mosha and the God of War would surely possess extraordinary divine power.

Since the Star of Mosha and the God of War entered the Path of Deliverance at the hour of Hai (9-11 PM) on the fourth day of the fourth month, they would be born at that time. They could focus on investigating disciples from the sects who were born at the hour of Hai. Linglong was tallying the attendees at the foot of Shaoyang Mountain. Wu Tong from Dianjing Vally bullied others by relying on his power.

With just a few words of displeasure, he teased Xuanji and threw her down from mid-air. Xuanji fell into the arms of Yu Sifeng, who was walking. Little Xuanji, because she didn't want to walk up the mountain, repeatedly acted spoiled and pleaded with Yu Sifeng, pestering him until he had no choice but to take Xuanji up the mountain together. Wu Tong still wouldn't give up and even provoked Yu Sifeng. Yu Sifeng's stutter was also mocked.

Fortunately, the Master of Dianjing Vally and Master Aunt Yinghong appeared to stop the argument. Yu Sifeng entered Shaoyang first without waiting for everyone, dropping his name tag. Coincidentally, Yu Sifeng was born in the same year, month, and day as Xuanji. The Shaoyang sect leader was angry about Xuanji's dull aptitude. Just as he was about to scold Xuanji, Linglong next to him cried to her deceased mother, complaining that Daddy was scolding Xuanji.

The Shaoyang sect leader had to give up, out of consideration for his daughter's deceased mother. He only asked Xuanji to quickly learn the first layer of the Yaohua sword moves within ten days. But his love for his daughters was buried in his heart. Because today was Xuanji's birthday, he then ordered Xiao Liuzi to bring the longevity cake and eight treasure cake that his daughters loved.

Xuanji remembered that Yu Sifeng shared her birthday, so she brought the delicious longevity cake to Yu Sifeng. However, Yu Sifeng seemed cold and unapproachable and refused Xuanji at the door. Yu Sifeng was collecting morning dew in the peach forest to brew tea. Xuanji took a nap in the peach forest and accidentally knocked over the morning dew. The tea water was something Yu Sifeng needed to enjoy every day to aid his cultivation.

At this moment, having it knocked over by Xuanji was truly frustrating, so he spoke sarcastically, calling Xuanji useless and foolish. Xuanji explained that she was doing this because she was trying to catch a bad snake. Who knew that the bad snake was Yu Sifeng's spirit beast Xiao Yinhua? Xiao Yinhua was attracted by the peach forest and disappeared, causing Yu Sifeng and Xuanji to accidentally enter a magic array.

Yu Sifeng was slightly shy from the close contact with Xuanji, but the magic array was right before them. After Yu Sifeng deciphered it, it revealed the immortal realm barrier of the Shaoyang Sect. Xiao Yinhua was in danger, trapped within the barrier. Yu Sifeng was extremely anxious and asked Xuanji to open the barrier. Xuanji accidentally waved her hand towards the barrier and opened a hole.

Seeing how anxious Yu Sifeng was to save Xiao Yinhua, she violated the rules and opened the barrier. However, there must be something very powerful inside the barrier. Yu Sifeng told Xuanji not to enter and that he would go find it alone. Sure enough, upon entering the barrier, the monster Candel Dragon appeared. Yu Sifeng desperately resisted and struggled. Xuanji was worried about Yu Sifeng's safety and entered.

Who knew that the Candel Dragon was indeed fierce and knocked Yu Sifeng unconscious to the ground, causing him to bleed. Xuanji removed Yu Sifeng's mask to check his injuries. Only when Yu Sifeng woke up did he realize his mask was gone and anxiously searched for it.
