The Blood of Youth Episode 10 Recap
> The Blood of Youth Recap
This beautiful young woman agreed to return in three months for another duel. Zhao Yuzhen indeed waited bitterly beneath the peach trees for three months until Li Hanyi arrived late. Before they fought, Zhao Yuzhen asked Li Hanyi to remove her mask. She reluctantly complied, and then Zhao Yuzhen unleashed a move called Infinite Calamity—his peach wood sword flying into the air, suddenly multiplying into thousands.
Li Hanyi countered with Moonlight at Dusk, Sword at Dawn, summoning a flurry of peach blossoms from the mountains to dispel the myriad swords. The duel ended in a draw. Neither claimed victory, and romantic feelings began to grow. Li Hanyi suggested Zhao Yuzhen leave the mountain, but he believed his master wouldn’t permit it, fearing his departure would cause chaos in the world. Thus, Li Hanyi promised to return to Wangcheng Mountain in a year to take him away.
As for what happened afterward, Tang Lian did not know. He guessed Zhao Yuzhen remained waiting at Wangcheng Mountain, just like how he, after leaving the Tang Clan, became a disciple of the Drunken Immortal Bai Li Dongjun and came to Xueyue City to wait for someone. But this wait had already lasted six years.
Xiao Se remarked that people of the Tang Clan were always like this, burdened with too many missions from birth, living without freedom and never for themselves. Meanwhile, Lei Yunhe arrived at Wangcheng Mountain riding his crane, returning after many years to settle old scores. Back then, Lei Hong passed by and witnessed the Moonlight at Dusk, Sword at Dawn technique, becoming completely obsessed with swordsmanship, willing even to be expelled from Leimen.
Lei Yunhe blamed Zhao Yuzhen for this and challenged him, only to have his right arm severed in the duel. After several rounds of drinks, Tang Lian continued to probe Xiao Se about his purpose for staying in Xueyue City and why he insisted on eight million taels. Xiao Se explained that with that sum, he could recruit soldiers and return to Tianqi City to reclaim what was his.
Though Lei Wujie didn’t fully understand his true intent, he promised with great loyalty to help him. At that moment, a figure flashed by—heading toward Li Hanyi’s secluded cultivation site. Realizing something was wrong, Lei Wujie rushed to intercept the stranger, stating that his master was in seclusion and was not to be disturbed. The man drew the Watersplitter Sword, and Lei Wujie recognized him as Song Yanhui, Lord of Wushuang City.
At first, Lei Wujie was no match for Song Yanhui. But once he grasped the will to draw the sword and successfully pulled out the Listening Rain Sword, he was still defeated. However, this act of drawing the sword was what Li Hanyi feared most. Sensing her fury, Sikong Changfeng immediately alerted Yin Luoxia to stop Song Yanhui—otherwise, he might really die in Xueyue City.
Yin Luoxia and Song Yanhui had a past at Canglan River, but due to his burdens, Song Yanhui couldn’t reciprocate her feelings. Upon hearing her master crying, Luo Mingxuan burst into the room and drove Song Yanhui away, only then realizing he was the Lord of Wushuang City.
Li Hanyi came to visit Yin Luoxia, burdened by emotions—first, because Zhao Yuzhen had gone mad in his cultivation and she hadn’t seen him since, and second, because she missed her younger brother Lei Wujie but didn’t know how to tell him their true relationship. Wushuang sat alone by the riverbank. Seeing his master Song Yanhui return disappointed, he already knew the outcome.
Song Yanhui finally realized the gap between himself and Li Hanyi and vowed never to return to Xueyue City. Upon hearing that Lei Wujie could become a Sword Immortal within three years, Wushuang was naturally unwilling to accept it. He had already learned to control ten flying swords in a short time and swore to become a Sword Immortal within a year. Song Yanhui was greatly comforted.
Now that Lei Wujie had successfully drawn the Listening Rain Sword, he constantly felt like he was forgetting something, with fragmented memories occasionally surfacing. Tang Lian and Xiao Se brought two pieces of news to Lei Wujie. First, Lei Yunhe and Zhao Yuzhen had fought for an entire night and ended in a draw. Zhao Yuzhen personally admitted Lei Yunhe had not lost. The second piece of news was that the Hundred Flowers Gathering of Xueyue City was approaching.
Xiao Se and Tang Lian informed Lei Wujie he could participate—and even see his goddess, Ye Ruoyi. Tang Lian revealed that Ye Ruoyi was the daughter of the current Grand General Ye Xiaoying. However, years ago, she suddenly contracted a strange illness, which even Sikong Changfeng and the astrologers of the Imperial Observatory were helpless to cure. Thinking of Ye Ruoyi, Lei Wujie instantly became lovestruck and eagerly agreed to attend the Hundred Flowers Gathering.
Tang Lian warned him not to tell Li Hanyi, fearing her appearance might stir up trouble once again. As the three talked, they thought of Wu Xin—unaware that he had already begun his seclusion, preparing to enter the mysterious astral realm.
