Episode 26 recap: Bian Luo Huan pleaded with Yue Qi to tell everything about Luo Mai Ming being killed by Luo Ning for revenge on behalf of the clan.
This time, Su Xuan came to take over Rehai on behalf of Zhu Yu, but according to the original agreement among the three parties, the Rehai key should be handed over to the Hengdao Group for safekeeping. However, Luo Mai Ming still kept a trick up his sleeve. On the scroll in his hand, the trajectory of Rehai's operation was recorded. He told Su Xuan that he would reveal this secret, but Tian Qing must ensure his safety.
Zhu Yu complied with the agreement and handed over the Rehai key to Ge Qing Fei. However, Luo Mai Ming refused Ge Qing Fei's offer to escort him and instead insisted on leaving with Zhu Yu. Yue Jin Zhao was still desperately searching for the location of the Hengdao Group, but he knew nothing. His left eye suddenly lost the ability to see the future, and his telepathic connection with Qi was no longer effective.
However, he knew that Qi must have been taken away by Bian Luo Huan. Based on their past interactions, Bian Luo Huan would not harm Qi, so he waited for the Hengdao Group to come find him. After returning to the Luo family, Luo Mai Ming saw the dead and injured members of the Luo family, but he felt no pain. When Luo Mai Ming met Xian Qing, Xian Qing was extremely resentful and attacked Luo Mai Ming, condemning him for committing such outrageous acts that crossed Luo Zhao Yan's bottom line.
Luo Mai Ming expressed that he had been trapped in the Luo family for two hundred years, and being dead was no different. He considered it fitting to die at the hands of Xian Qing. Luo Zhao Yan questioned Luo Mai Ming if he had come back to the Luo family for a reason.
Luo Mai Ming smiled wickedly and asked Luo Zhao Yan if she regretted her choices today. The reason he came back was to confirm whether Luo Zhao Yan's choices were correct or not. He couldn't let go of the affection and sympathy he had for Luo Zhao Yan.
Qi woke up and found herself back in the room where she was confined in the past. She remembered everything. Here, she had spent beautiful days with her master, Bian Luo Huan. After leaving the room, Qi saw Bian Luo Huan again. They met once more, and Qi felt uneasy. Bian Luo Huan didn't perceive Qi's discomfort and, as before, accompanied her around. They didn't know what to say for a moment, but Bian Luo Huan broke the silence and talked about the origin of Qi's name.
Qi was just born when Bian Luo Huan accompanied his elder brother, Yin Xu Wei, to Tian Qing Zhi Hai to bring her back. Her mother, Zhu Yu, gave her the name Qi, which means "to pray for blessings." Zhu Yu hoped Qi would grow up happy and fortunate. The two of them arrived at the Bai Chi Quan Tai, and Bian Luo Huan told Yue Qi that each star here contains memories of her past.
Bian Luo Huan frankly admitted that he erased Qi's memories and openly told her that she was a pawn used by the Hengdao Group to deal with and restrain Zhu Yu. Qi was greatly shocked upon hearing this. She couldn't tolerate the deceit from her most trusted master. Bian Luo Huan listened silently to Qi's excited roar, his expression filled with deep and melancholic affection, but he didn't explain anything.
Qi decided to find the answers herself and unravel the doubts in her heart. Ge Qing Fei tried to stop her excitement and told her everything that Bian Luo Huan had done for her during these days. Back then, Bian Luo Huan had sworn in front of the Heavenly Punishment Stone that he would never use the resonance technique, or else he would face the punishment of Heavenly Incineration. However, in order to save Qi, Bian Luo Huan repeatedly broke his oath and suffered punishment himself.
Qi gradually calmed down after hearing this and learned about everything Bian Luo Huan had done for her in secret. Now the Luo family was in ruins, and everyone was filled with hatred due to the loss of their loved ones. Xian Qing was preparing to leave with Luo Zhao Yan, but the villagers broke in seeking revenge against Luo Zhao Yan.
Xian Qing told the intruders that Luo Zhao Yan was his wife and not the enemy they were looking for, so they left disappointed. As the head of the family, Luo Zhao Yan had always been responsible and dedicated. Now seeing the anger and resentment in the hearts of her clan members due to the loss of their family members, she decided to no longer hide and confessed everything to everyone.
Luo Zhao Yan addressed the members of the clan, admitting that she disguised herself as a man out of necessity and failed to protect everyone during the most dangerous times. She acknowledged her failure as the head of the family and was willing to pay the price for it, sacrificing herself to eliminate the hatred among the clan members. The clan members were even more stirred up after hearing this, insisting on taking revenge on Luo Zhao Yan themselves. Xian Qing rushed forward to protect Luo Zhao Yan.
Luo Mai Ming also arrived at the scene and admitted that he had killed the clan members while impersonating the head of the family. However, his actions were unrelated to Luo Zhao Yan. Luo Mai Ming also explained to everyone about the curse the head of the Luo family had accepted for over two hundred years, guaranteeing a continuous water source for the clan in exchange for the premature death of the Luo family's twins. This allowed the clan to live in prosperity and abundance. Therefore, the head of the Luo family didn't owe anything to the clan members.
However, Luo Mai Ming's words did not gain forgiveness from everyone. Luo Ning even thrust his sword towards Luo Mai Ming, shocking Luo Zhao Yan to see Luo Mai Ming die before her eyes.
