Episode 30 recap: Yue Jin Zhao and Zhao Ming Xiu met Gu Han Jiang and shared their feelings with each other.

Upon seeing Yue Jin Zhao and others enter the Misty Soul Vortex, Zhao Ming Xiu urged Ying Xu Wei to fulfill his promise and hand over the Rehai Key Ring. Ying Xu Wei signaled Ge Qing Fei to do so, and Ge Qing Fei slowly removed the Rehai Key Ring from his hand and handed it to Su Xuan. In reality, the Rehai Key Ring was just a fake. The group arrived at Gui Xu, and Zhao Ming Xiu's expression turned solemn. He reflected on his life and admitted that it hadn't been in vain.

Zhao Ming Xiu told everyone that his older brother, Ying Xu Wei, used the dragon horn in Gui Xu to forge the Rehai Key Ring. The Rehai Key Ring was originally made from dragon bone, and the residual divine power on the bone could deceive those who didn't know the truth. It could also make Zhu Yu believe it was the real Rehai Key Ring, preventing the situation from spiraling out of control. Xiao Yuan missed her third brother deeply and had no idea where he had gone.

Ge Qing Fei felt a deep sorrow in his heart, but in order to prevent Xiao Yuan from being sad, he casually told her that her third brother had gone to a faraway place for treatment due to serious injuries. The group looked around the Long Tan and were amazed by the strange and vast scenery. Suddenly, the Long Tan spoke, and its identity at that moment was Su He. Su He loudly informed everyone that Zhao Ming Xiu would completely disappear as a result of the birth of a brand-new life.

From now on, no one in this world would remember Zhao Ming Xiu, including the people he cherished. Everyone was shocked upon hearing this, and although Zhao Ming Xiu himself couldn't accept it, he had no choice. Only he could exchange for Yue Jin Zhao and take on the arduous mission in his place. Yue Jin Zhao looked at Zhao Ming Xiu, and their emotions were complex. Yue Jin Zhao thanked Zhao Ming Xiu for his sacrifice, which allowed him to exchange his own life in the space-time.

Zhao Ming Xiu also expressed gratitude to Yue Jin Zhao because he would now undertake even more responsibilities and missions in Zhao Ming Xiu's stead. Zhao Ming Xiu had to bid farewell to everyone completely, and with reluctance, he sealed his memories within Yue Jin Zhao's left eye. This way, during crucial moments, Yue Jin Zhao would have the ability to foresee the future.

Qin walked slowly to her master, with whom she had once spent countless days and nights. She now understood the sacrifice made by Zhao Ming Xiu, and her resentment towards him had long vanished. After bidding farewell to everyone, Zhao Ming Xiu entered Gui Xu alone, narrowly missing Yue Jin Zhao as they exchanged their lives successfully. Zhao Ming Xiu departed, and from that moment on, there would be no more Zhao Ming Xiu in this world. Nobody would remember him, as every trace of his existence had been erased from this world.

Su He escorted everyone out of Gui Xu but kept Yue Jin Zhao behind. He asked Yue Jin Zhao if he believed in fate. Yue Jin Zhao believed that fate could be changed through effort, but Su He softly informed him that his own life would also come to an end in the not-too-distant future.

Yue Jin Zhao calmly expressed that since it was his fate, he would bravely face it. He had friends who stood by him through life and death, and he held the righteous sword to slay demons and eradicate evil. He would certainly strive to guide fate onto its rightful path. Yue Jin Zhao and Yue Qi sent their past selves from three years ago to Wu Yan Village. Ming Xiu also met her master, Gu Han Jiang, in this timeline. Time had returned to three years ago. When Gu Han Jiang saw Ming Xiu, he was equally delighted, knowing that she came from the future. He predicted that three years later, Ming Xiu would transition from rejection to acceptance and ultimately inherit the guardianship of the Pure Spring of Purity. He also knew that three years later, he and Ming Xiu could no longer protect each other. He gave Ming Xiu a hibiscus flower, and the two bid each other farewell with deep affection, realizing their mutual wish to cherish each other.

Ming Xiu had always wondered what happened on July 14 three years ago. Now she understood that it was the day she bid farewell to her master. With her wish fulfilled, Ming Xiu gradually found peace. Qi still felt sad when she thought of Zhao Ming Xiu, knowing that he would cease to exist three years later.

Yue Jin Zhao comforted Qi, saying that he had now inherited Zhao Ming Xiu's mission and beliefs. Although they might not remember Zhao Ming Xiu, he was still alive. When everyone returned from the Misty Soul, nobody mentioned Zhao Ming Xiu again. They had truly forgotten him. Qi discovered the seashell Zhao Ming Xiu had given her, containing his heartfelt confession. However, Qi had no idea who had said those words.
