The Blue Whisper Episode 21 Recap
> The Blue Whisper Recap
Kong Ming saw the frost flowers on the back of Xue Sanyue's neck and guessed that she was a spiritual masters from Thousand Flower Valley. He then asked her about the whereabouts of Qing Yu Luan Niao. Xue Sanyue was very vigilant. Kong Ming explained that he was ordered by Chang Yi and Qing Xuan to invite Qing Yu Luan Niao out of the mountain to assist North Abyss.
He also described in detail how Ji Yunhe pushed Chang Yi off the cliff and was then captured by Ning Qing. Xue Sanyue didn't believe that Ji Yunhe would break faith, but Kong Ming spoke with certainty. Li Shu firmly believed that Ji Yunhe would not betray Chang Yi. He noticed that the person in front of him, dressed simply, not only possessed powerful spiritual power but also had the scent of herbs on him.
He guessed that this was the famous Kong Ming. Li Shu also wanted Qing Yu Luan Niao to step forward and thoroughly clear up the misunderstanding between Ji Yunhe and Chang Yi. So, he suggested that Kong Ming prepare some good wine, then freeze it in the Nine Cold Cave overnight, and then take it to please Qing Yu Luan Niao, who liked to drink. Kong Ming immediately went down the mountain to buy wine.
Li Shu thanked Xue Sanyue for helping him, thinking she wanted him to stay. Xue Sanyue made an excuse that she didn't want anyone touching her things. Li Shu heard the hidden meaning in her words. He told Da Huan and Xiao Huan to return to Chongwu Mountain, while he decided to stay in Leyou Mountain to accompany Xue Sanyue. Da Huan and Xiao Huan firmly refused to leave and wanted to stay with him.
Li Shu couldn't argue with them and had to agree. Qing Yao made Chang Yi sweet potato soup to ward off the cold. Chang Yi couldn't help but recall the sweet memories of Ji Yunhe roasting sweet potatoes for him, feeling a pang in his heart. In a huff, he left without eating. Ru Jun made detailed arrangements and came to inform Ji Yunhe, wanting to cooperate with her from the inside and outside to attack the Immortal Master Mansion.
Ji Yunhe asked Ru Jun to show leniency to Chang Yi after everything settled down and to release the criminal immortals from the Congji Jail. Ru Jun readily agreed, but as a ruler, he had difficulties and it was inconvenient for him to directly release the criminal immortals. He asked Ji Yunhe to secretly release them. He then gave Ji Yunhe a Heavenly Realm token for convenience. Ru Jun only asked Ji Yunhe not to harm his sister, Ru Ling.
Ji Yunhe promised not to proactively attack Ru Ling. Ji Yunhe then asked the Heavenly King, if there are some people whom we can never change throughout our lives, should we stick to our original intentions or let go? She hoped the Heavenly King could understand that indulging Ru Ling and changing her might be very difficult. Kong Ming bought a jar of fine wine and put it directly into the Nine Cold Cave to freeze.
Not long after he left, Luo Jinsang arrived there. As soon as she entered the cave, she smelled the strong aroma of wine. Luo Jinsang opened the wine jar and tasted it. Kong Ming suddenly rushed in and forbade Luo Jinsang from touching his wine. Luo Jinsang picked up the wine jar and tried to run, but Kong Ming waved his hand and knocked her to the ground.
The large stone door at the entrance of the Nine Cold Cave fell down. Kong Ming guessed that Qing Yu Luan Niao had set up a mechanism here, and they would be sealed inside if a fight occurred. Luo Jinsang used all her spiritual power to try and open the large stone door, but it didn't budge. Kong Ming advised her not to waste her energy.
Luo Jinsang desperately tried to please Kong Ming, begging him to help open the stone door. Kong Ming told her to wait patiently for Li Shu and Xue Sanyue to come and rescue them. Luo Jinsang was surprised, not expecting Li Shu to still be alive. She couldn't help but admire his excellent skill at feigning death.
When Luo Jinsang learned that Kong Ming was sent by Chang Yi to invite Qing Yu Luan Niao, she completely lowered her guard and lay on the ground, pretending to be dead like Li Shu. Inside the Nine Cold Cave, it was icy and snowy, unusually cold. To preserve his strength, Kong Ming closed his eyes and meditated. Luo Jinsang shivered with cold.
Remembering how Ji Yunhe and Chang Yi hugged to keep warm, she wanted to hug Kong Ming for warmth. Kong Ming was very resistant. Luo Jinsang thought that if two people loved each other, they could huddle together for warmth, and casually said that she loved Kong Ming. Kong Ming forbade her from talking nonsense. Luo Jinsang wanted to drink that jar of wine to warm herself, but Kong Ming firmly refused.
He wanted to use that wine to please Qing Yu Luan Niao and thus accomplish their great mission. Luo Jinsang didn't understand these things. She didn't want to freeze to death. She only wanted to save up more spiritual stones to exchange for an immortal island and live a free and unrestrained life with Ji Yunhe. Kong Ming scoffed at her and even called Ji Yunhe greedy, saying she betrayed Chang Yi for her own future.
Luo Jinsang repeatedly explained that Ji Yunhe wanted to let Chang Yi go, but Kong Ming didn't believe her at all. Luo Jinsang didn't want to say too much. She begged Kong Ming to lend her spiritual power to open the stone door, but Kong Ming firmly refused. Luo Jinsang suddenly fell to the ground and didn't get up. Kong Ming thought she had fainted from the cold and rushed over to show concern for her.
Luo Jinsang suddenly jumped up and ambushed Kong Ming. She took the opportunity to pick up the wine jar and drink it, and even fed some to Kong Ming mouth-to-mouth. Kong Ming fainted on the spot because his heart rate accelerated. Luo Jinsang discovered that Kong Ming's body was very warm, so she lay on top of him to warm herself. Kong Ming's yang energy surged from his body, and Luo Jinsang absorbed it all without a word.
Early the next morning, Xue Sanyue and Li Shu searched everywhere for Kong Ming. Seeing that the large stone door of the Nine Cold Cave was closed, they used their spiritual power to open it and saw Luo Jinsang and Kong Ming trapped inside. Li Shu was very surprised. Generally, immortal attendants would freeze to death after staying in the Nine Cold Cave for less than half an hour, but Luo Jinsang's face was flushed instead.
Luo Jinsang boasted that it was all thanks to Kong Ming's strong yang energy. Kong Ming blushed crimson with shame, unable to speak coherently. He discovered that the entire jar of wine had been drunk by Luo Jinsang and was furious. Luo Jinsang promised to be responsible to the end and took the empty jar to see Qing Yu Luan Niao. Qing Yu Luan Niao was greatly annoyed.
Luo Jinsang used the special skill of butterflies and quickly collected a jar of fine wine from among grains and flowers. Qing Yu Luan Niao remembered that Ning Ruochu had also used a similar method to get wine for her, and immediately lost all interest. However, she couldn't resist Luo Jinsang's persistent pestering.
Qing Yu Luan Niao proposed that if Luo Jinsang's wine could get her drunk, she would agree to come out of the mountain, otherwise, no one should ever take half a step into Leyou Mountain again. Luo Jinsang readily agreed. Kong Ming sat outside, quietly waiting for the result. Remembering the sweet moments of intimate contact he had with Luo Jinsang in the Nine Cold Cave last night, he desperately tried to hide it, forcing himself to calm down.
But Luo Jinsang's appearance lingered in his mind. Luo Jinsang collected a lot of fine wine, but Qing Yu Luan Niao felt nothing after drinking it. Luo Jinsang took out the last cup, specially adding fermented rice wine to it. Qing Yu Luan Niao recalled many past events, becoming deeply intoxicated and unable to extricate herself. Luo Jinsang added fuel to the fire from the side, vowing to save Ji Yunhe at all costs.
Qing Yu Luan Niao clearly remembered that Ning Ruochu had also said such words. She immediately decided to come out of the mountain. Luo Jinsang was overjoyed and quickly ran out to announce the good news to Kong Ming and the others. She also kept pestering Kong Ming in various ways. Kong Ming was scared and tried to avoid her. Luo Jinsang, fueled by the alcohol, transformed into a butterfly and flew away. Kong Ming followed closely behind.
Luo Jinsang fell to the ground and saw a mirror on the ground. She marveled at her own beauty. Kong Ming chased after her and showed concern. Luo Jinsang held onto Kong Ming tightly, endlessly babbling about the wonderful feelings of that night in the Nine Cold Cave. Kong Ming was flustered by her but felt secretly pleased. When Li Shu and Xue Sanyue saw this scene, they concluded that their relationship was unusual.
Xue Sanyue loudly reminded Luo Jinsang that there was still serious business to attend to. Luo Jinsang quickly followed Xue Sanyue to find Qing Yu Luan Niao. Qing Yu Luan Niao was invited to North Abyss to meet Qing Xuan. Qing Xuan handed over all matters to Chang Yi. Chang Yi elaborated on the battle plan: he asked Qing Yu Luan Niao to lure Ning Qing out of Lutai Mountain and hold him back for as long as possible.
He assigned Kong Ming to guard North Abyss and secure the rear for support. Chang Yi would lead a team to the Immortal Master Mansion to rescue the trapped criminal immortals. Qi Feng publicly opposed Chang Yi, wanting to lead the team to attack the Immortal Master Mansion. Chang Yi insisted on going himself, and Qing Xuan agreed to his plan. Before leaving, Li Shu gave Chang Yi many instructions and intended to accompany him to help. After that, Kong Ming took out a token and asked Chang Yi to give it to Ji Chengyu. Perhaps encountering Ji Chengyu would prevent difficulties.
