Love's Rebellion Episode 24 Recap
> Love's Rebellion Recap
Huo Wuji knew well that once today's sacrifice begins, demonic cultivators will definitely not give up. Since Nan Yan insists on participating in the Honored Queen selection, he might as well go along with the plan and add Shuliu Grass to Nan Yan's candle flame, which can keep the flame from extinguishing. Ji Yang saw that Huo Wuji cared deeply for his tribesmen, but his scheme was also seen through.
He directly stated that after today, there would be no Evil Lord in the cave. As soon as he finished speaking, everyone saw Asu come out holding a candle, while Nan Yan followed closely behind, supporting Huixiang. It turned out that Li Jin had disguised herself as Asu to enter the cave, immediately attacked Nan Yan, and threatened her with Huixiang to force Nan Yan to hand over the candle.
Nan Yan had no intention of becoming the Honored Queen, so she simply handed the candle to the other party. In contrast, Nan Yi was in love with a Merman and preparing for their wedding, but unexpectedly, the Merman was captured and locked in a cage. Everyone rushed to watch, intending to take her Silver Flood Dragon Bead. Nan Yi was still unaware of this and felt that extracting the Silver Flood Dragon Bead while alive was too cruel.
So he personally killed the Merman to spare her pain, only to realize it was the person he loved. This caused him immense grief, and he slaughtered the entire city. It was precisely because of this that Nan Yi ended up in his current state. He believed that Yin Ya and Mu Zhanting wanting to privately release the demon race was also a serious crime, and questioned if they had considered the consequences.
Yin Ya believed that Nan Yi was not someone who couldn't distinguish right from wrong, and that there must have been a reason behind the Linglongjing City incident. He felt the same way about saving his own clan members, unable to stand by and watch his closest relatives suffer, willing to sacrifice everything, even his life.
Because of Mu Zhanting and Yin Ya's persistence, Nan Yi was moved by them and agreed to give them the time it takes for an incense stick to burn to break through the formation. The guards asked for the password, and saying it wrong would lead to being killed. Mu Zhanting took Yin Ya and performed some demon-exorcising and evil-warding actions, hoping to bluff their way through.
When the guards realized and were about to chase Yin Ya, Mu Zhanting quickly blocked the guards, creating an opportunity for Yin Ya. On the other side, Huo Wuji opened the formation to let Asu in. Unexpectedly, Asu directly called Li Chi. Huo Wuji tried to stop him but failed and was injured by Li Chi.
At the critical moment, Nan Yan and Ji Yang appeared in time, informing Li Chi that the Blood Phoenix Hairpin in his hand was fake and reminding them not to waste any more effort. Li Chi became enraged and started fighting on the spot. Ji Yang told Huo Wuji to take everyone away first. During the fight, Ji Yang pierced Li Chi's palm with his sword. Unexpectedly, instead of dodging, Li Chi chanted incantations.
Taking advantage of Ji Yang's inattentiveness, he used a soul-swapping evil technique, resulting in the two swapping souls. Nan Yan recognized the evil technique at a glance. Li Chi was unable to control Ji Yang's body, but Senluo began to completely take over Ji Yang's body. With Nan Yan's help, Ji Yang re-casted the soul-swapping technique and returned to his body. He questioned Li Chi about the identity of the person behind him.
Li Chi remained silent, while Li Jin desperately begged Nan Yan and the others for mercy. Unexpectedly, Li Chi refused to confess even unto death and committed suicide in front of everyone. It was precisely because of this that Li Jin tearfully explained that her brother was once a good person, but to protect her, he chose to become a demon and killed the Heavenly Evil Dao Sect Master to replace him.
Because he later practiced the soul-swapping technique, he was sometimes clear-headed and sometimes in a demonic frenzy. Li Jin knelt on the ground, willing to bear all the karma and sins for her brother. Nan Yan suppressed the killing intent in her heart and angrily told Li Jin to get lost. Afterwards, Ji Yang comforted Nan Yan and helped her calm down. After they left, they told everyone the truth about the Evil Lord.
Because of the evil object, the Blood Thistle's bloodthirsty nature greatly increased, and the women they offered each year were merely a temporary solution like drinking poison to quench thirst. Nan Yan and Ji Yang assured everyone that they had completely resolved the Blood Thistle disaster and also hoped that Huo Wuji could take good care of Huixiang and her younger brother.
Huo Wuji and the villagers readily agreed, stating that as long as they had food to eat in the future, they would absolutely never let Huixiang and Bajiao go hungry or cold. Immediately afterwards, Nan Yan and Ji Yang left the village, and the two worked together to recover the Nether Prison.
