Love's Rebellion Episode 8 Recap
> Love's Rebellion Recap
Die Wan conspired with Yin Ya to set a trap and capture Ji Yang and Mu Zhanting, using them to threaten Nan Yan into handing over the Silver Flood Dragon Pearl, or their lives would be in danger. Nan Yan was extremely anxious and hastily took off the Silver Flood Dragon Pearl and handed it to Die Wan, while simultaneously attempting to counterattack by secretly administering poison.
Die Wan was furious, not only severely injuring Mu Zhanting and Yin Ya, but also accidentally triggering the Seven Sins Manual, causing Nan Yan to lose control and heavily wound Die Wan with one strike. Because Nan Yan couldn't control this power, Die Wan saw the opportunity and decided to take advantage of her weakness, intending to eliminate the demon-restraining technique within Nan Yan to prevent future troubles for the demon race.
At this critical life-and-death moment, Ji Yang arrived at Die Wan's lair in time, pierced her heart with a sword, and Die Wan instantly vanished into thin air, resolving the crisis. However, Die Wan was already controlled by the talisman genie, ignoring Ji Yang as if he wasn't there. The red mark on her forehead shimmered, appearing strangely enchanting, and her eyes were filled with chilling hatred.
Ji Yang tried his best to suppress the power, while Nan Yan struggled fiercely. The two sides battled intensely. Ultimately, Nan Yan was no match and was embraced by Ji Yang. When she regained consciousness, she saw that Ji Yang had put the Silver Flood Dragon Pearl back on her. After returning to the Lunar Sect, Mu Zhanting squatted on the ground, staring at the sky and laughing foolishly.
Recalling the faint glimpse of Ji Yang's heroic figure while he was unconscious, he suddenly realized that the Emperor Shao Cang he had been searching for for so long was actually the person beside him. On one hand, Mu Zhanting was delighted to see his idol so soon, and on the other hand, he was angered that Nan Yan had intentionally concealed it. His feelings were extremely complex. Nan Yan was grateful for Ji Yang's life-saving grace.
Even though Ji Yang often teased her playfully to scare her, she honestly told him what she saw in the bamboo forest that day: what looked like a ground full of corpses was actually because Ji Yang couldn't bear to harm his fellow disciples, so he knocked everyone unconscious instead of killing them. Therefore, Nan Yan was more convinced that the deadly curse was nothing but a bluff, and the reputation of being bloodthirsty that Ji Yang carried was untrue.
All external rumors were malicious slander. Through this period of time spent together, Nan Yan gradually discerned Ji Yang's essentially good nature, so she poured out her heart, admitting that although she couldn't directly help him clear his name, she was willing to fight alongside him and offer unconditional trust and support. Ji Yang appeared calm on the surface, but was deeply moved inside.
He specially gave Nan Yan a piece of fragrant wood that he personally carved as a memento. Nan Yan happily embraced him. This sudden intimacy momentarily stunned Ji Yang. That night, Nan Yan used the copper pot hotpot banquet to cleverly set a scene, intending to investigate whether there was collusion between Yin Ya and Die Wan, especially concerning the secret of the Silver Flood Dragon Pearl.
Yin Ya denied it repeatedly, putting on an act and appearing pitiful, which caused Nan Yan to temporarily put aside her doubts and not press further. At the dinner table, Nan Yan solemnly declared that the four of them were now a community of shared destiny, prospering and suffering together, and it was imperative to keep Ji Yang's identity a secret.
On the other side, Meng Zhiguang, after obtaining the Nine Chapters Sparrow Technique, treasured it like a gem, his confidence doubled. He excitedly invited Nan Rao and others to play mahjong, but unexpectedly still ended up losing. Just as Meng Zhiguang was full of suspicion, Nan Rao quietly transmitted a message explaining that the Nine Chapters Sparrow Technique was actually created anonymously by her in her spare time.
It might give a slight advantage against others, but when used against herself, it would naturally be ineffective. Mu Guanghan suddenly arrived at the Lunar Sect to visit his beloved son. Mu Zhanting had a flash of inspiration and lied that Ji Yang and the others were fellow enthusiasts of a poetry club, and even composed a poem extemporaneously, which made Mu Guanghan feel very pleased. Consequently, he relaxed the restrictions on his son's hobbies.
Mu Zhanting was so excited that he actually wept tears of joy, and then suddenly fainted. It turned out that Yin Ya had secretly added hallucinogenic mushrooms to the copper pot hotpot, intending to use this opportunity to act. However, his tricks were ineffective in front of Nan Yan, as she was skilled in pharmacology and had a thorough knowledge of poisons.
Facing Nan Yan's questioning, Yin Ya confessed that he wanted to go deep into the Filth Valley to search for the Seven Sins Manual, and needed the power of the Silver Flood Dragon Pearl to conceal his whereabouts and escape the pursuit of the Yin Priest. Hearing the name Seven Sins Manual, Nan Yan's heart stirred, and she speculated that Ji Yang's trip was also for this book.
After a conversation, Nan Yan learned that Yin Ya intended to use the power of the Seven Sins Manual to break the demon-sealing formation and rescue his clansmen from hardship. Because Yin Ya's experience was somewhat similar to her own, Nan Yan's anger immediately subsided, and she promised that if there truly was a time to save people in the future, she would lend him the Silver Flood Dragon Pearl.
Nan Yan helped the unconscious Ji Yang onto the bed, secretly admiring his handsome face in her heart. Little did she know, Ji Yang was only pretending to be unconscious and had heard every single word Nan Yan said clearly.
