Episode 14 recap: Feng Bao Bao Chases After Wang Ye with Intent to Bury Him
In this match, Feng Sha Yan faced Jia Zheng Liang. As usual, Jia Zheng Liang was talkative and walked into the arena while talking on the phone with his mother. Feng Sha Yan wanted a quick and decisive victory, so she went all out from the beginning. She accidentally broke Jia Zheng Liang's phone, which made him furious because his mother would worry about him. He quickly asked Feng Sha Yan if he could borrow her phone, but Feng Sha Yan had come to the competition without bringing a phone. An anxious Jia Zheng Liang sought help from the audience stands, and Feng Zheng Hao lent his phone to Jia Zheng Liang.
Jia Zheng Liang managed to call his mother and reassure her. However, when his mother learned that his opponent was a woman, she directly and assertively said that she wanted to have a word with Feng Sha Yan and invited her to visit their village after the match. This way, Jia Zheng Liang would have a chance. Feng Sha Yan felt helpless and couldn't refuse a mother's request, so she agreed. However, during her battle with Jia Zheng Liang, she didn't show any mercy and used her spatial abilities to catch him off guard, causing Jia Zheng Liang to get injured.
Seeing that Feng Sha Yan was fighting seriously, Jia Zheng Liang didn't hold back either. He also went all out to deal with Feng Sha Yan, resulting in both of them being injured. Jia Zheng Liang had a strong determination to win this match and seek revenge against Feng Bao Bao in the next round for his brother, Jia Zheng Nan. Feng Sha Yan also had the same determination to win the competition.
Both of them refused to give in, giving their all in offense and defense, which ignited the passion of the audience. Feng Zheng Hao wanted to stop the match when he saw Feng Sha Yan getting injured, but she refused to back down. She wanted to win, so she unleashed her final powerful attack against Jia Zheng Liang. Jia Zheng Liang saw through Feng Sha Yan's intentions and used his qi to wrap around twelve flying knives, minimizing friction, and launched an attack towards Feng Sha Yan.
The final strike was brutal, and both Feng Sha Yan and Jia Zheng Liang fell to the ground, injured. When the referee counted, Feng Sha Yan managed to struggle to her feet and won the match. Feng Zheng Hao was extremely proud, and Jia Zheng Liang acknowledged Feng Sha Yan's victory. However, Feng Sha Yan knew that it was because Jia Zheng Liang had shown mercy that she was able to win.
After Feng Sha Yan won, he fainted on Jia Zheng Liang's body. Both of them were taken for medical treatment. Zhang Chu Lan and Feng Zheng Tong went to visit them and discovered that they were in the same hospital room. They couldn't help but sigh at how cramped Longhu Mountain was. Zhang Chu Lan's meaningful gaze made Feng Sha Yan feel somewhat uneasy.
Jia Zheng Liang was still on the phone with his mother, boasting about how he made Feng Sha Yan admit defeat. When he saw the questioning look in Feng Sha Yan's eyes, he quickly hung up the phone, claiming that he was just bragging to reassure his mother. He then skillfully sliced an apple for Feng Sha Yan using his flying knife technique.
Feng Bao Bao went to find Wang Ye, intending to bury him. However, she found Wang Ye being chased by several people. Not knowing what to do, Wang Ye managed to shake off his pursuers. Seeing this, Feng Bao Bao didn't hesitate and knocked Wang Ye unconscious with a shovel, tying him up tightly.
Feng Bao Bao dug a large hole, knowing that Wang Ye was proficient in Taiji energy. She poured water and mud into the hole, intending to make the mud stick to Wang Ye's body, preventing him from escaping. Wang Ye, aware of Feng Bao Bao's plan, quickly used his skills to free himself and ended up burying Feng Bao Bao in the hole instead. However, Feng Bao Bao quickly escaped and continued to chase after Wang Ye. Wang Ye was amazed by Feng Bao Bao's strength but continued to flee.
Feng Bao Bao pursued relentlessly, forcing Wang Ye to use diversion tactics. However, Feng Bao Bao was able to locate Wang Ye's true position by listening carefully to the faint sounds. Wang Ye, realizing how tenacious Feng Bao Bao was, used a smoke-screening technique. This time, Feng Bao Bao couldn't see Wang Ye anymore, but just as Wang Ye relaxed and took a step forward, he made a sound, prompting Feng Bao Bao to swing the shovel down. Wang Ye had no choice but to escape once again.
The two of them chased each other throughout the night until the next day when the martial arts tournament began, and Wang Ye managed to step into the competition arena just before the time limit.
Feng Bao Bao, driven by anger, didn't even realize that she had entered the arena and continued chasing after Wang Ye. She swung the shovel at Wang Ye, narrowly missing a vital part of his body, causing the spectators to gasp in shock. Zhang Chu Lan never expected that the match he could have won would have to be restarted due to Feng Bao Bao's mistake.
Wang Ye, feeling hungry, demanded food, causing the audience to boo. Zhang Xi Wei, worried that Wang Ye would report to Wudang, ordered Rong Shan to bring food to Wang Ye. Wang Ye decided to have a bread-eating contest with Zhang Chu Lan and advised him to give up on uncovering the truth, as Zhang Chu Lan's pursuit would bring earth-shattering changes to many people. Zhang Chu Lan understood Wang Ye's meaning but insisted on seeking the truth for Feng Bao Bao's sake. Seeing this, Wang Ye used the excuse that Zhang Chu Lan had eaten more bread and admitted Zhang Chu Lan's victory.
Wang Ye, oh Wang Ye, so likable. He could have sought only good fortune and avoided danger, but he didn't. Though he appears detached from the world, he has never underestimated it.
Despite seeming indifferent to everything, he truly cares about the fate of many people.
Is it possible that this world is just a cycle? Otherwise, why would Zhang Chu Lan appear on the train in the year of Jia Shen? The Jia Shen turmoil started from there. Zhang Huai Yi also met Feng Bao Bao on this train.
Feng Bao Bao said that by following Zhang Chu Lan, one can know the truth because Zhang Chu Lan always walks in that direction. However, later on, there is the concept of being rootless, so it doesn't hold up completely.
Wang Ye looks so handsome! Whether it's his appearance, voice, or demeanor, he perfectly embodies the character from the anime. He even surpasses the Wang Ye in the anime, he looks even better.
He's just perfect. Wang Ye is the epitome of the entire series, and Lao Tian Shi is also great. Feng Bao Bao is good too. But the other characters are really disappointing.
Zhang Chu Lan, Zhu Ge Qing, and Zhang Ling Yu, oh my, they ruin the original work. What is Zhang Chu Lan even trying to portray? He's both ugly and immature. He's so ugly, with a mole on his face.
The manga didn't have a mole. Especially Zhu Ge Qing, he was known for being handsome in the manga, and yet they cast such an ugly person. And he also has a mole on his face.
Oh my, they still insist on calling him handsome and having a bunch of girls chasing after him. Are those girls blind? They can't find someone handsome among the ones known for their looks?
Even if they can't find someone without a mole, at least find someone without a mole. Insisting on calling him handsome is really an eyesore. And then there's Zhang Ling Yu.
Although he finally doesn't have a mole, he still doesn't possess that otherworldly, elegant, and handsome aura from the anime.
