Episode 28 recap: Yue Jin Zhao learned about his origins, and the imminent disappearance of Bian Luo Huan.
Ge Qing Fei came to summon Jin Zhao and Qi to meet the boss and inform them about their true identities. The two followed Ge Qing Fei to meet Ying Xu Wei, and Yue Jin Zhao questioned him, saying that after all the careful planning, it was time to reveal the truth. Ge Qing Fei replied that it all started with Zhu Yu. Zhu Yu had been relying on the Hengdao Sect to collect and deliver the Qi Yuan Beads, which helped alleviate the swelling of time and manage the Yu Clan. However, after Zhu Yu consumed the Qi Yuan Beads, she also absorbed the dark emotions of humans. If this continued, Zhu Yu would inevitably turn dark, and all the beings in the Six Realms would face a catastrophe and be destroyed.
Therefore, the Hengdao Sect reached an agreement with Zhu Yu. When that day arrived, the Hengdao Sect would kill Zhu Yu, and the only one capable of killing Zhu Yu would be the life nurtured by her blood, which Zhu Yu named "Qi." Yue Jin Zhao found it impossible to believe, and Qi was also stunned. However, she asked further, "What about Jin Zhao? What does he have to do with this?" Ying Xu Wei then recounted an extraordinary past event.
Three years ago, Ying Xu Wei encountered a person who looked exactly like Bian Luo Huan. The only difference was that he was the future Bian Luo Huan from three years later. He told the boss that three years later, due to severe injuries, Bian Luo Huan would be unable to resonate and fulfill the mission against Zhu Yu together with Qi. Therefore, the future Bian Luo Huan traveled through the Mist Soul to exchange for a new life in Longtan. He would stay in this timeline and resonate with Qi, taking Jin Zhao's place to complete the task of killing Zhu Yu.
The person who woke up with Qi in Wu Yan Village was the one exchanged from the future, and his name was Yue Jin Zhao. He would accompany Qi on a three-year journey in the mortal realm until she gained the ability to kill Zhu Yu. Yue Jin Zhao initially did not believe it. At that moment, Bian Luo Huan approached and said he also didn't believe it until they saw him and Qi sleeping together three years ago in Wu Yan Village.
They brought the two back for examination and discovered that Yue Jin Zhao indeed had the ability to resonate with Qi, surpassing Bian Luo Huan. After discussing with Zhu Yu, the Hengdao Sect agreed to let Yue Jin Zhao accompany Qi in the mortal realm, replacing Bian Luo Huan. Thus, they were sent back to Wu Yan Village.
Ming Xiu learned that Longtan could perform life exchanges and decided to exchange himself for Gu Han Jiang. However, everyone desperately tried to stop him. Yue Jin Zhao felt frustrated and regretful for being so obsessed with learning about his origins. He didn't expect to be someone with a mission and that he would have to help Qi kill her own mother. Qi noticed his gloomy mood and wanted to cheer him up, so she borrowed the Cloud-Coming Stone and Jing Zhao to enter the Yujie Realm together.
Ying Xu Wei learned that Bian Luo Huan intended to let them go and became furious, considering it nonsense. However, Bian Luo Huan, who knew about Yue Jin Zhao and Qi, understood that they were only temporarily going to the Three Hearts and would definitely come back. Qi and Jing Zhao arrived in Jing'an Town and completely let themselves go. They listened to stories, ate noodles, played with sugar figurines, and enjoyed delicious food, as if they had returned to their previous happy times.
They encountered the owner of a dim sum shop. After the owner's wife became pregnant again, she regained consciousness and saw them. Qi was reminded of her own mother, Zhu Yu. However, Zhu Yu's wish was for the people here to live happily, and she wanted the owner's wife to give birth to another lovely daughter. Jing Zhao also suddenly realized that his responsibility was to protect the peace of the world. They decided to return to the Yujie Realm together, and Qi expressed her belief that she would find a way to reconcile both sides and not engage in conflict with Zhu Yu.
Ge Qing Fei went to see Bian Luo Huan and told him that the boss was waiting for him on the rooftop. When Bian Luo Huan arrived, he saw Ying Xu Wei sitting alone, drinking with a cold expression. Bian Luo Huan took the wine bottle from him and told the boss that drinking like this would accelerate the decay of his internal organs. Without him to take care of him in the future, he shouldn't indulge in self-destructive behavior.
Bian Luo Huan sat down and took a sip from the wine bottle, and Ying Xu Wei apologized, calling himself an incompetent elder brother. Bian Luo Huan teasingly said that he was indeed incompetent. Every time he and Second Sister made a mistake, the boss would punish them severely. Bian Luo Huan's expression turned serious, and he said that he had thought of escaping countless times. However, with so many innocent lives stained on his hands, having a chance for redemption was already fortunate.
The boss said that if he wanted redemption, he would have to wait for the next life. Bian Luo Huan expressed that being able to be a family with the boss in this lifetime was already enough. It was just that Qi and Jing Zhao were so innocent, and they had to bear the consequences of his incompetence. Ge Qing Fei brought Xiaoyuan to see them. Ge Qing Fei told Xiaoyuan that Third Brother was about to leave. Bian Luo Huan instructed Xiaoyuan to be obedient in the future. The two of them then chased after the grass butterfly that Bian Luo Huan had made, running outside. Ying Xu Wei watched their figures from behind, with a sorrowful expression.
