Episode Recap

Episode 8

Xiao Lan Hua ran to the Arbiter hall and called Dongfang Qingcang. She was ecstatic because of Changheng’s praises and the Magical Firefly Stone. In her happiness, she wondered how a firefly could fly near her Arbiter Hall.

Dongfang Qingcang’s heart felt uncomfortable. He found it odd because Xiao Lan Hua was ecstatic, but he did not feel the same. He immediately checked the Xilan Book to find out what was wrong. Shang Que told his master that Xiao Lan Hua’s good mood would make her regain her energy to fix the Destiny book. But Dongfang Qingcang said they should not be rushed because Xiao Lan Hua’s energy only recovered 70%.

Dongfang Qingcang did not realize that he was jealous of Changheng…😆😆

In the Fountain Palace, Yulin ordered the servants to sweep the courtyard and move plants. Qingchuan stopped her because the recruit list had not been announced yet. Yulin was confident that it was just a matter of time before she joined the Fountain Palace because she got second place in the exam.

Danyin saw them and told Yulin to use her brain. She was there to work but she acted like the lady of the house. Danyin saw Yulin’s purse was shining then she took the purse and found the firefly stone. She accused Yulin of stealing the stone from Changheng. Yulin denied the accusation. Yulin said that Changheng gave the stone to her. Danyin did not believe Yulin’s words because Changheng obviously did not know Yulin, much less gave her his precious stone.

Danyin and Yulin started to quarrel. Qingchuan tried to separate them. But before everything settled, Lord Yunzhong showed up and stopped them.

Danyin and Yulin kneeled at Yunzhong Water Pavilion Hall. Danyin pleaded to apologize to the Shuiyuntian Emperor. The Emperor asked Danyin if Yulin had stolen the stone or not.

Danyin answered that Yulin said that Changheng gave the stone to her. Yulin confirmed Danyin’s words.

Suddenly Changheng came and rebutted her words. He said that the stone was beneficial for his cultivation. He always brought it everywhere and never gave it to anyone else.

Lord Shan Sheng reminded Yulin that deceiving the Emperor and stealing were serious crimes. She will be charged with those crimes, and the consequences were grave. However, Yulin insisted that she did not lie to them. Changheng cut her words and told the Emperor that he never knew her.

The Emperor asked Yulin one more time whether she stole the stone or not. Yulin still insisted that Changheng gave her the stone. Her answer leads her to her doom. The Emperor sentenced Yulin to have her immortal bone removed so she could not reincarnate ever again. Yulin and everybody present were shocked. The sentence was very severe. Yulin screamed that she was innocent. Changheng begged the Emperor to lighten the punishment. Danyin also did the same and asked her father to plead for Yulin. However, Lord Li Yuan scolded her.

The Emperor warned Changheng. He said that as the younger son of Lord Dong, and the God of War of Shuiyuntian, Changheng must not make any mistakes. Changheng understood the meaning behind the words. Yulin’s severe punishment was a warning for him.

Yulin was put under guard and taken to receive her punishment. When Yulin saw Xiao Lan Hua, she charged at her and screamed that it was Xiao Lan Hua who took the stone.

Changheng and Rong Hao saw all the commotion. Rong Hao said that Lord Yunzhong was cruel because it was just a stone. Changheng explained to him, that if Yulin admitted that she was stealing the stone, she would be forgiven. However, Yulin was afraid of the punishment for stealing.

Therefore, she insisted that the stone was given by Changheng. But for Lord Yunzhong, if the stone was given to Yulin, it was an unforgivable sin because Changheng was engaged. The Emperor would not let him have an affair with another fairy and Yulin was a warning for him.

Changheng decided to eliminate Xiao Lan Hua’s name from the winner list. He was afraid Lord Yunzhong find out his feeling for her and would do something to her. Well, this is not the first time Changheng do something to Xiao Lan Hua to keep her safe. Back then when Xiao Lan Hua has treated for his injuries, Changheng erased her memories of their encounter. Changheng had long realized his brother’s stance about his engagement with the Goddess of Xishan. He also knew how capable Lord Yunzhong was in handling issues related to his relationship.

This time was no exception. To keep Xiao Lan Hua safe, he must keep her from entering the Fountain Palace. Changheng was sad. He remembered when he intentionally released a firefly in the Arbiter hall so it could find its way to Xiao Lan Hua.

Rong Hao asked whether he had thought about it carefully because the little orchid would be very sad if she knew that her name was not on the list. Changheng made up his mind, he eliminate her name from the list.

The next day, the little orchid happily struts to look at the list. However, she could not find her name. Lord Shan Sheng explained to her that Changheng had eliminated her name. Xiao Lan Hua was dejected. She became sadder when she found that her Magical Firefly Stone had changed into an ordinary stone.

Dongfang Qingcang came to Xiao Lan Hua because he could feel her sadness. The little orchid asked Dongfang Qingcang why did bad things happen to her. Dongfang Qingcang took her to Yunzhong Water Pavilion. They eavesdrop on the conversation between Lord Yunzhong and Changheng. The Emperor tried to probe about the little orchid and for what reason Changheng only eliminated Xiao Lan Hua’s name.

Changheng said that Xiao Lan Hua did not deserve to enter the Fountain Palace because she was weak and her immortal root was damaged. Therefore, she was not suitable to work for him, the God of War.

Xiao Lan Hua was sad, but she pretended to be strong. Dongfang Qingcang told her not to hide the sadness because he could feel her feelings. Xiao Lan Hua cried and cried.

Dongfang Qingcang silently wiped away his tears…😅

The great demon lord comforted the little orchid and told her Changheng was blind because he did not know who was nice to him. He also said that Xiao Lan Hua was different from other fairies. She was as precious as his life. However, Xiao Lan Hua did not believe his sweet words. Dongfang Qingcang told her not to cry anymore because it would make him sad.

It was so sad to see Changheng and Xiao Lan Hua. Poor Changheng had to hide his feeling because of his brother. 😭

Changheng came with soldiers to the Arbiter Hall. They were looking for the Moon tribe’s person. Dongfang Qingcang prepared his hellfire, but Xiao Lan Hua prevented him from using it. They jumped from the Arbiter Hall and fell onto the water under Shuiyuntian. Xiao Lan Hua cannot hold her breath any longer and almost passed out. When the little orchid was drowned, Dongfang Qingcang helped her with mouth-to-mouth respiration.

When they returned to the Arbiter Hall, Changheng already left empty-handed. The atmosphere between Xiao Lan Hua and Dongfang. Qingcang was a bit awkward because of the kiss, or should we call it first aid?😆

The drenched Xiao Lan Hua and Dongfang Qingcang stand far away from each other. Dongfang Qingcang tried to explain the kiss was really a first aid. But Xiao Lan Hua was flustered and ran from there as fast as she could. While Dongfang Qingcang only touched his lips. It seems that he also felt something from the kiss.

When he sat under the Destiny tree, Dongfang Qingcang saw the Tianji mirror. He looked inside it and saw the wedding between Changheng and Xiao Lan Hua. He felt his chess stuffy, he wondered what was going on with himself. He urged Shang Que to find the heart-hidden hairpin immediately so he could block all Xiao Lan Hua’s thoughts.

Ahahahah… another jealous scene for him…🤣

Dongfang Qingcang questioned why Xiao Lan Hua’s power could only recover to 90%, even though he had working hard to nurse it. Shang Que gave his two cents, it must be related to Xiao Lan Hua’s feelings for Changheng. She always wanted to serve Changheng, but since she couldn’t do it, the 10% unrecoverable power had become some kind of illness in her heart. Dongfang Qingcang, wondering what Changheng had that made Xiao Lan Hua think about him to such an extent.

Xiao Lan Hua was wandering alone in the forest when she met Danyin. Fairy Danyin told her that it was dangerous to wander alone since Shuiyuntian’s soldiers were looking for a person from the Moon tribe.

Danyin told Xiao Lan Hua a secret that besides sinful immortals there was a person from the Moon Tribe who was imprisoned in the Haotian tower. Xiao Lan Hua was shocked.

Xiao Lan Hua put some drugs into Dongfang Qingcang’s drink. He drank it even though he seemed to know there was a sleeping drug inside it. Xiao Lan Hua took the sleeping Dongfang Qingcang to the Memory Loss river and put him on a boat. She prepared flower cakes, liquors, and also a blanket for him.

Dongfang Qingcang asked Xiao Lan Hua what she had done. The little orchid said that she was sending him away. She knew that Dongfang Qingcang was a person from the Moon Tribe, but she was happy to have him in the Arbiter Hall. She did not feel lonely and enjoyed his company. And although people from Shuiyuntian said that the Moon Tribe’s people were bad, she did not consider him as one.

Xiao Lan Hua wanted Dongfang Qingcang to be safe. However, Dongfang Qingcang was not an obedient person, so she decided to send him off this way. The great demon lord said that if the little orchid was caught colluding with him, she would be punished by being imprisoned or killed. He told her that emotions were a burden and her kindness made her stupid.

Xiao Lan Hua would be safe if she turned him in from the beginning. Xiao Lan Hua refuted his words. She said that Dongfang Qingcang had saved her life in Haishi City. She could live longer because of him. She bid him goodbye and said, that she would miss him before she left the boat and fly to the shore.

The drug did not gave much effect on Dongfang Qingcang. He stand up as soon as she was gone. He ate the flower cake and remembered the time when his emotion was stripped off.

Changheng was standing alone in front of his Fountain Palace. He remembered the sad face of Xiao Lan Hua when she knew about the elimination. Suddenly, a soldier reported the progress of the evil spirit’s investigation.

Episode 9

Xiao Lan Hua sat alone in her garden. She felt sad because she had to part with Dongfang Qingcang. The little orchid realized that she should not have let him in in the first place. Now he had to leave but it was all for his safety because Shuiyuntian still looking for the missing person from the Moon Tribe. After long contemplation, she fell asleep.

Xiao Lan Hua did not know that the person she was thinking about was standing behind her at the moment. When Shang Que checked up on her, he told Dongfang Qingcang that Xiao Lan Huan had fully recovered. Dongfang Qingcang wondered the reason why the little orchid could not recover 100% because she was worried about his safety. The great demon lord asked Shang Que if only Xiao Lan Hua knew his identity as Dongfang Qingcang, would she change her mind about the Moon Tribe and risk her life to save him? Shang Que did not know the answer to that.

Shang Que reminded Dongfang Qingcang to urge the little orchid about the Destiny book. Dongfang Qingcang refused and told him to let her sleep first. Shang Que’s eyes bulged when he saw his emotionless master carrying the little orchid to bed. A small crescent thing called The Bone Orchid appeared on his hand.

The thing was transformed from his heart blood. He gave it to her as a repayment for her kindness. Dongfang Qingcang put it in her hand, and the small thing transformed into a bracelet that could protect her whenever she was in danger. The bracelet disappear as soon as it was attached to her hand.

At the Liufang Pavilion, Die Yi reported to her master that Changheng was waiting for him. The Lord of Haishi city was surprised because Changheng had never visited the city before. Die Yi said that he might come because of the evil spirit. The news of evil spirits has spread in three realms.

How would it feel for Rong Hao when he met his best friend in his secret identity?

Changheng brought the evil spirit with him. He accused Haishi City of being involved in this matter. But the Lord was not the one to be overlooked. He immediately said that Haishi City was in chaos after the appearance of a mysterious man. He showed Changheng the wound on Die Yi’s back. Changheng was surprised because the wound was caused by hellfire.

The Lord said that besides Dongfang Qingcang, nobody in the three realms could manipulate hellfire. He also said that the day the mysterious man appeared, he took a fairy from Shuiyuntian with him. It was a small orchid fairy. Changheng was stunned. He immediately left the pavilion.

Die Yi asked her master why he revealed Dongfang Qingcang. The Lord answered that as long as Dongfang Qingcang stayed with Xiao Lan Hua, they could not do anything, but if the Haishi City joined hands with Changheng, they had the chance to beat Dongfang Qingcang.

Back in the Arbiter Hall, Xiao Lan Hua woke up in her bed. She panicked because she would be late for the ceremony. As usual, Shang Que reminded Dongfang Qingcang about the Destiny book. But Dongfang Qingcang let her go to the ceremony. The little orchid has been waiting for this ceremony for 1000 years. Today she will officially become a fairy.

Changheng went to the Arbiter Hall. Shang Que reported his presence to his master. Dongfang Qingcang smirked and said that he did not want to kill him, but Changheng asked for it.

Ahhh… Finally, our male leads would meet each other. Have you chosen between #teamDongfang or #teamChangheng? 😉

Meanwhile, the ceremony began in Yunzhong Water Pavilion. Lord Shan Sheng explained that fairies were classified into 8 immortal groups (heaven, earth, thunder, water, fire, wind, lake, and mountain) according to their true form. Xuanwu, the ancient turtle god would check the fairies’ s true forms.

The first fairy easily passed the checkup. Xiao Lan Hua was next. She enters the place where Xuanwu resides. She was in awe to see Xuanwu’s true form, a giant turtle that stood between the clouds. The god addressed her as an old friend. Xiao Lan Hua was confused because she had never met the ancient god before. Xuanwu said that she was special. All living beings in this world have thousands of fates, but Xiao Lan Hua only had one fate.

The little orchid did not understand his words. However, Xuanwu assured her that by the time she understand his words, Xiao Lan Hua would begin to bear her destiny. Xuanwu only told her to take care before he disappeared.

Other fairies started to get anxious because Xiao Lan Hua had spent a long time with the ancient god. When she returned, there were no results of her true form. Everybody was confused, including the lords and the Emperor. Shan Sheng told Xiao Lan Hua to try again, but the result was the same. Li Yuan told Shan Sheng to check her true form. But nothing was found. The little orchid’s true form was not a plant, and she did not belong to any immortal groups of Shuiyuntian. The Emperor said if she was neither a fairy nor human, she must be from the Moon tribe.

Xiao Lan Hua refuted his words. Si Ming told her that she used to be an orchid seed from Yunmeng lake, and she was planted in the Arbiter Hall. But the Emperor insisted that the orchid must be her disguise. He called the guard to take down Xiao Lan Hua. But when they touched her, they were blown away by a great power that came from her. Blue hellfire surrounded Xiao Lan Hua. Protect her from the guards.

Changheng asked Dongfang Qingcang why he run away. Dongfang Qingcang answered that he never run away, he just did not want to destroy the Arbiter Hall. Both sides started their fights.

While the fairies were in an uproar because of the hellfire. Xiao Lan Hua threw away the bracelet. At the same time, the Emperor used his power to suspend Xiao Lan Hua. He repeatedly asked where Dongfang Qingcang was, but Xiao Lan Hua answered that she did not know.

Dongfang Qingcang fought with Changheng and he was in the upper hand. Changheng fought him with difficulty before Rong Hao come to help. Suddenly Dongfang Qingcang felt something wrong with him. The Xilan seal appeared on his forehead. Dongfang Qingcang aimed his hellfire at Rong Hao. Changheng saw it and shielded him. After that, Dongfang Qingcang disappeared.

Meanwhile, the Emperor still tortured Xiao Lan Hua. He almost killed her with a spear when Dongfang Qingcang appeared.

The demon lord was angry because the Shuiyuntian people tried to hurt his girl. Everybody was shocked because they never expected to see him again. Dongfang Qingcang released Xiao Lan Hua and put her on the ground. The Emperor led the fairies to aim their power at them. But Dongfang Qingcang’s shield was powerful to protect them from getting harmed.

Xiao Lan Hua asked him why he lied to her and why he saved her. Dongfang Qingcang answered that he never lied to her. He saved her because her life belonged to him, and he would not let anyone hurt her. Dongfang Qingcang took back the bracelet and put it in her hand before he left the shield. His eyes turned blue and he released his hellfire inside the pavilion.

Blue flames ran rampant inside the pavilion. Xiao Lan Hua stopped Dongfang Qingcang from annihilating people before she passed out.

Dongfang Qingcang followed her words willingly. He carried Xiao Lan Hua in his arms. He said that if somebody dared to stop them, he would destroy the Shuiyuntian and kill everyone. The demon lord also stated he would avenge the shame of the 30,000 years of seal and the oppression of the Cangyan Sea.

When Dongfang Qingcang and Xiao Lan Hua were about to leave the Shuiyuntian, Changheng’s spears stopped him. Changheng was angry to see Dongfang Qingcang take Xiao Lan Hua with him. He told Dongfang Qingcang to put the orchid down. Dongfang Qingcang put Xiao Lan Hua on the side of the corridor and get ready for another round with Changheng.

Aaahhh… My heart goes with Changheng. You could see that Dongfang Qingcang’s power levels were higher than his. Dongfang Qingcang could easily beat him up… 😭

Changheng said that he would not let Dongfang Qingcang take the orchid away. The demon lord said that he did not want to kill Changheng and only ordered him to step aside. However, Changheng insisted to attack him even though he suffered a huge loss. But he refused to surrender.

Changheng pulled out all his power and got ready for the last attack. Dongfang Qingcang also did the same. But he changed his target at the last minute. He destroyed the Four Pearls on the top of the tower and took Xiao Lan Hua away, leaving the dumbstruck Changheng. He taunted Changheng and asked whether he wanted to save Xiao Lan Hua or the Shuiyuntian.

Qingchuan stopped Changheng from chasing Dongfang Qingcang. He reminded his master that the Four Water Pearls control the Shuiyuntian 4 water source, the Xiao, the Xiang, the Li, and the Yuan. If he did not fix them immediately, the water would destroy Shuiyuntian and Yunmeng lake. Changheng realized his priority was not Xiao Lan Hua. Devastated, he looked at Dongfang Qingcang from afar and turned back to save Shuiyuntian.

On the Memory Loss river, Dongfang Qingcang put the unconscious Xiao Lan Hua in a boat. He asked Shang Que why Xiao Lan Hua was not awake yet. Shang Que said that the little orchid was poisoned by Lord Yunzhong’s whip and the Memory Loss River’s cold prevented her from recovering. Shang Que said that the most important thing was to warm her up and only his hellfire could help her. Dongfang Qingcang held Xiao Lan Hua’s hand.

Suddenly the little orchid woke up. Dongfang Qingcang asked her if she was afraid of him. Xiao Lan Hua forced herself to shake her head. But then she panicked when she learned they were in the Memory Loss river, at the boundary of the two tribes. She passed out again when she realized that Dongfang Qingcang wanted to take her to the Cangyan sea. Not long after that, Xiao Lan Hua woke up again and knocked on his forehead. She babbled about how she was sorry because she used to make fun of him, tell him to do chores, even laugh at his unhygienic life, and called him a homeless dog… 🤣

Xiao Lan Hua changed the way she called Dongfang Qingcang. She used to call him Daqiang, but now she forced herself to call him the Moon Supreme. Xiao Lan Hua wanted to leave the boat, but Dongfang Qingcang prevented her from doing that. He asked her whether she wanted to be killed by Shuiyuntian because for the Shuiyuntian people, she was a traitor right now. Xiao Lan Hua cried profusely, shouting she was not a traitor, Shuiyuntian was her home, and she wanted to go home. Silently Dongfang Qingcang swept away his tears…😅

At the shore, Shang Que explained the situation to Dongfang Qingcang. His brother Dongfang Xunfeng fought the Kings of Southern and Northern Youxian County in Wind Plain. But now they have conquered Silver Lake and are heading toward Ninth Youxian County. Shang Que said Xunfeng might not survive tonight.

The Kings of Southern and Northern Youxian County have always been ambitious and coveted the position of the Moon Supreme. They did not dare to do anything when he was around because they feared his power. But when he was pronounced dead, they tried many times to replace Xunfeng as the Moon Supreme.

Xiao Lan Hua sneakily tried to run away with the boat. Dongfang Qingcang sensed it and destroyed the boat. He called the little orchid to come near him and signaled Shang Que to change his form into a big black dragon.

Xiao Lan Hua used the moment when Dongfang Qingcang and Shang Que were having a discussion to sneakily ran away. But Dongfang Qingcang caught her. To threaten her, Dongfang Qingcang signaled Shang Que to change his form into a black giant dragon. Xiao Lan Hua was frightened by the dragon. Dongfang Qingcang told her to open her eyes and saw that he was not the man that is easily beaten up or killed by the immortals. Dongfang Qingcang signaled Shang Que again to roar at her… 🤣

Then they mount the black dragon to the Wind Plane. Xiao Lan Hua screamed and screamed during the journey. She held Dongfang Qingcang tightly because she was afraid.

Did anybody crave a roller coaster ride after you watched this episode? 😆
