Moonlit Reunion Episode 7 Recap
> Moonlit Reunion Recap
Wu Zhen deftly transformed into a cat and quickly rushed back to the suburban woods, only to be startled to find Shan Posuo had died under an extremely powerful magic spell. This mysterious magic made her intensely curious about the caster, secretly wondering who this formidable person could be. Meanwhile, during his cultivation, Mei Zhuyu kept unintentionally recalling Wu Zhen kissing him. This scene made him feel ashamed of his master's earnest teachings and too embarrassed to face Wu Zhen.
Thus, he strived to calm his mind, doing his utmost to focus on his cultivation. In the bustling Beast Market, Elder Grey was nonchalantly admiring a mural, as if nothing concerned him. Wu Zhen came to question him, but he vehemently denied being in the western suburban woods, even looking down on Wu Zhen, who was half-human and half-demon, and showing no respect for Master Cat. At this moment, various demons appeared one after another.
Ling Xiao immediately pointed out that he had seen Elder Grey use the Soul Wandering Technique yesterday. However, this technique causes extreme and highly detrimental damage to the body. Everyone suspected that Elder Grey would never joke with his own life. So, Wu Zhen revealed her Streamer Whip, which could accurately detect if his divine consciousness had left his body. Elder Grey tried to escape but was promptly and skillfully trapped by Master Cat.
Wu Zhen whipped Elder Grey in front of all the demons, forcing him to confess his various crimes. Afterward, she imprisoned him in the Beast Prison to uphold justice in the Beast Market. Wu Zishu stormed into the Beast Prison, intending to torment Elder Grey daily to vent his hatred.
At this point, Elder Grey reluctantly revealed the truth: he only wanted to seize the thunder-struck wood to preserve the Vengeful spirit bone, but he did not disclose the true purpose of preserving the Vengeful spirit bone. At the same time, he also firmly believed that although Wu Zishu arrived at the Beast Market like a blank slate, he naturally had his own selfish desires.
The next day, in a fit of rage, Liu Taizhen tied up Mei Si because he had repeatedly come to the Liu Manor to eliminate snake demons, causing her too much distress, so she simply tied him up. Wu Zhen, hearing that something had happened in the village again, was filled with anxiety and quickly rushed there, coincidentally encountering Mei Zhuyu. Three people in the village were again afflicted by miasma, unconscious and in critical condition.
Suddenly, a woman's scream came from afar; it turned out to be a pervert peeking at their bodies. Wu Zhen quickly entered the house to apprehend the person, but Mei Zhuyu recognized the person in front of them as Shuang Jiang. Shuang Jiang hastily explained that he was a Celestial Master from Changxi Palace, but Wu Zhen did not believe that Changxi Palace, which had disappeared for a hundred years, still had a successor.
Shuang Jiang further explained that he had gotten lost on the mountain earlier and had intended to take off his clothes to cool down but unfortunately rolled down the mountain and was mistaken for a pervert by these women. To prove his identity, Shuang Jiang took out a magic artifact, stating that it could extract the miasma from the villagers' bodies.
Little did he know, Mei Zhuyu, hidden in the shadows, noticed that Shuang Jiang had placed the incense burner incorrectly, fearing that the spell would be unsuccessful. Finally, unable to bear his low-level magic anymore, Mei Zhuyu secretly helped cast the spell, and the unconscious villagers were finally revived. Afterward, the villagers expressed their gratitude to Shuang Jiang for saving their lives. It was only then that Wu Zhen noticed Mei Zhuyu had disappeared.
It turned out that Mei Zhuyu was worried about being recognized by Shuang Jiang, which would expose his true identity, so he avoided Shuang Jiang. Wu Zhen enthusiastically invited Shuang Jiang to join them. Shuang Jiang happily boarded the carriage but unexpectedly came face-to-face with Mei Zhuyu. Mei Zhuyu preemptively called out, "Eleventh Junior Brother," and Shuang Jiang, understanding from his gaze, had no choice but to implicitly acknowledge this relationship.
Mei Zhuyu explained that he and Shuang Jiang were from the same hometown, using this to cover up their past. After Mei Zhuyu and Shuang Jiang arrived in the capital city, they quickly departed, which made Wu Zhen feel that Mei Zhuyu was somewhat strange this time, seemingly deliberately hiding something.
That night, Shuang Jiang informed Mei Zhuyu that ever since his First Senior Brother became the sect leader, he could no longer endure the hardships of the assessments, so he came down the mountain to seek refuge with him. Mei Zhuyu was willing to take him in but laid down three rules: they must address each other as fellow disciples and he must not reveal his connection to Changxi Palace to avoid unnecessary trouble.
The next day, Shuang Jiang discovered there was another person at home and immediately became alert, drawing his sword. The house servant Wenhua mistakenly thought a thief had broken in, and the two almost came to blows, leading to a misunderstanding. Shuang Jiang had eagerly anticipated breakfast, but seeing no meat, he was inevitably a little disappointed. At this moment, Mei Zhuyu saw a dossier and immediately hurried away to earn money to buy meat for Shuang Jiang.
Mei Zhuyu returned to the Bureau of Supernatural Affairs with the closed case dossier of the western suburban woods. Minister Liu intended to offer words of commendation. Unexpectedly, Mei Zhuyu immediately asked to take over the position of Commissioner, which made Commissioner Xu, who was standing nearby, extremely awkward, his face turning very unpleasant.
