Episode 29 recap: Xiao Fengjun became the Phoenix Emperor.
When Gu Jin saw the Thunder Fire Talisman used by Xiao Fengjun, he became even more confused. This Thunder Fire Talisman was his invention, and he had only told A Yin about the method of making it. Gu Jin was pondering over this question when A Yin suddenly noticed him. He walked out and thanked him for what happened back then, but Xiao Fengjun still remained cold towards him and issued an order for him to leave Wutong Island as soon as possible.
Feng Yuan came to find Gu Jin. She initially wanted to keep Gu Jin on Wutong Island and let him cultivate a relationship with Xiao Fengjun. However, she didn't expect Xiao Fengjun to dislike Gu Jin so much, so she decided to let Gu Jin go. She reached out to grab Gu Jin's arm, wanting to comfort him a few words, but Gu Jin was afraid Feng Yuan would notice his injuries, so he quickly dodged to the side. In order to avoid raising Feng Yuan's suspicion, he even deliberately mentioned that his clothes were too dirty, fearing that he would soil her hands.
Before leaving Wutong Island, Gu Jin wanted to see Xiao Fengjun again, but unexpectedly, he saw a familiar face with Xiao Fengjun. That familiar person was Wugui. When Gu Jin saw the elderly Wugui, he hurriedly went forward to pay his respects. Wugui wanted to ask what had happened between him and A Yin, but before he could speak, Xiao Fengjun drove Gu Jin away.
When they went to the Fox Clan to obtain Feng Yin's celestial essence, Wugui had already noticed the deep bond between Gu Jin and A Yin. Seeing Xiao Fengjun driving Gu Jin away, Wugui curiously asked Xiao Fengjun why she treated Gu Jin like that. Xiao Fengjun told Wugui that she was no longer the same A Yin as before. A Yin had already been killed by Gu Jin. However, Wugui advised Xiao Fengjun not to deceive herself. When she and Gu Jin came to obtain Feng Yin's celestial essence, he had already noticed that there was a portion of Feng Yin's essence within A Yin, and that essence controlled Feng Yin's personality. Xiao Fengjun now possessed all of A Yin's memories, so she was essentially A Yin.
After hearing Wugui's words, A Yin was reminded of the love and hate between her and Gu Jin, which made her feel somewhat melancholic. After Wugui left, she suddenly remembered her younger sister, Ayu, and involuntarily came to Ninyun Mountain. There, she saw Ayu and witnessed someone attacking her. A Yin intervened and drove the attacker away.
Ayu dared to mention A Yin's tentacles, so she took the initiative to heal A Yin's injuries. A Yin discovered that Ayu was a Water Spirit Beast. When Gu Jin came out after hearing the commotion, A Yin learned from Gu Jin's words that the girl before her was her younger sister, Ayu.
Xiao Fengjun and Gu Jin inspected the traces left behind by the person who had escaped earlier. A Yin remembered the Tracking Dust Sword in the Sibing Hall, which had the ability to track using traces. She went to the Sibing Hall and with the help of Guichen, she ultimately discovered that Feng Ming was the one who had attacked Ayu.
At first, Feng Ming tried to deny it, but Feng Yuan noticed him using demonic techniques, and Gu Jin discovered the wounds left by the Tianqi Sword on his body, so he had no choice but to admit it. However, he refused to reveal the person behind him. Meanwhile, in the Jiuyuan Shaya Prison, Xiu Yuan realized that Feng Ming had been exposed and believed that the Demon Lord had lost his chance to make a move. However, the Demon Lord smiled and said it was premature to assume that.
While the two were talking, the Peacock King killed several disciples of the same sect and absorbed their inner energy. At that moment, a black mist floated out of his body. That black mist was the Demon God. The Demon God praised him for a few words and then merged back into his body. Gu Jin and A Yin both interrogated Feng Ming, but he refused to confess. In order to uncover the traitor within the Immortal Clan, A Yin took over the Phoenix Clan and became the Phoenix Emperor.
After obtaining Gu Jin's consent, she brought Ayu to Wutong Island and recognized her as her foster sister. During the investigation, Gu Jin had been by Xiao Fengjun's side all the time, and through various signs, he felt that Xiao Fengjun was A Yin. After much contemplation, A Yin eventually realized that what Wugui had said was true, and she hadn't truly let go of everything. Therefore, she decided to relinquish the identity of Xiao Fengjun and complete the unfinished tasks as A Yin.
When Hua Shu learned that Xiao Fengjun had become the Phoenix Emperor, she felt uncomfortable deep inside. In order to not let Xiao Fengjun surpass her, she came up with an idea to arrange a marriage between her and Gu Jin on his birthday, with the help of others.
