My Journey To You Episode 19 Recap
> My Journey To You Recap
Gong Ziyu never expected such a turn of events. He could only watch helplessly as Gong Shangjue took Yun Weishan to the dungeon for interrogation. Gong Shangjue, full of pride, believed he had won this round. He was certain he would pry the secret from Yun Weishan and use it to overthrow Gong Ziyu. Gong Shangjue ordered Yun Weishan to give up resistance. Even if she could endure torture, Gong Yuanzheng’s poison was not something she could withstand.
Even the most renowned tough men in the martial world could not resist it, let alone a weak woman like her. Gong Shangjue questioned Yun Weishan if she was a spy from Wufeng. To his surprise, Yun Weishan directly admitted she was. Such a straightforward answer left Gong Shangjue dumbfounded—he hadn't expected her to confess so easily. Seeing Yun Weishan even smile faintly, Gong Shangjue was furious. He rushed forward and grabbed her throat, attempting to strangle her.
At that moment, a guard reported that Jin Fan had come under Gong Ziyu’s order to deliver chicken soup to Yun Weishan. Only then did Gong Shangjue let go, but he had already guessed Gong Ziyu’s intentions: the soup must contain herbal extract to counter the poison he had forced Yun Weishan to drink. Gong Shangjue ordered his men to confiscate the soup and send Jin Fan away. Young Master Xue returned to Xue Palace.
Xue Zhongzi pretended to be angry to coax some words out of him, then took him to the front mountain to help Gong Ziyu, an exception to the rule. Gong Ziyu was worrying about how to rescue Yun Weishan and was overjoyed when the two arrived. However, to raid the dungeon, they needed gunpowder, so they headed to the place where Gong Zishang was developing it.
There, Xue Zhongzi encountered Young Master Hua, the dark-skinned young man who constantly worked with Gong Zishang on the gunpowder. Both had broken the rule about entering the front mountain and could only keep it from each other. Gong Shangjue was preparing to dig deeper into Yun Weishan’s secrets, but unexpectedly, a masked man appeared in the dungeon. The guards were knocked unconscious, and when Gong Shangjue saw the masked figure, he was greatly shocked.
Gong Zishang, hearing that everyone planned to blow up the dungeon wall to rescue Yun Weishan, initially backed out. But when Jin Fan called out “Zishang,” she immediately changed her mind and led the charge. Gong Yuanzheng arrived at the dungeon to inspect and asked whether Yun Weishan had confessed. Gong Shangjue shook his head. Just then, a deafening explosion echoed through the dungeon. Gong Shangjue rushed over to check.
The group had rescued Yun Weishan, and Gong Shangjue chased after them and engaged in a fight. In the end, he was seriously injured and taken back to Jue Palace by Gong Yuanzheng. Shangguan Qian panicked upon seeing this. Gong Yuanzheng told her to quickly summon the physician. While treating Gong Yuanzheng, Shangguan Qian chatted with him about Gong Shangjue and learned that his mother and younger brother Lang had been killed by Wufeng agents.
Gong Ziyu had gotten into big trouble and thought of the best way to avoid it—going to the back mountain to complete the third trial. According to Gong family rules, no one was allowed to disturb those undergoing trials in the back mountain for any reason. If Gong Ziyu passed the trial, he would rightfully become the Sword Wielder of the Gong family, and no one would dare trouble him.
After realizing this, everyone took action to persuade the elders to downplay the matter. Young Master Hua was harshly scolded by his father, Elder Hua, who was deeply disappointed. Gong Zishang was also summoned back to Shang Palace by her father, Gong Liushang, and reprimanded for neglecting her duties and always chasing after a Yu Palace guard. Rumors were spreading that the Shang lineage had become mere followers of the Yu lineage. Gong Ziyu arrived at Hua Palace.
Elder Hua asked Young Master Hua to explain the trial details. He explained that the third trial required Gong Ziyu to forge a blade from thousand-year black iron and then challenge six famous blades of Hua Palace. If his blade could defeat any one of them, the trial would be deemed successful. He also suggested that Gong Ziyu bring along his guards for forging, and specially requested approval from the Elders’ Court to summon Jin Fan to Hua Palace.
Gong Liushang believed Gong Ziyu could not pass the third trial because the final forging required a human sacrifice—offering the life of one’s own guard. Due to Gong Ziyu’s nature, he would never allow such a sacrifice. Upon hearing this, Gong Zishang immediately rushed out to meet Young Master Hua, determined to stop Gong Ziyu from sacrificing Jin Fan. After regaining consciousness, Yun Weishan found Elder Yue in her room.
He advised her to leave the Gong residence for her own and Gong Ziyu’s sake. Yun Weishan agreed. Not long after, Ming Wuji came to visit her and said she brought a gift from the former Sword Wielder for his daughter-in-law. But when Yun Weishan opened the brocade box, hidden weapons shot out and wounded her.
