Episode 27 recap: Yue Qing is Rejected Again in Her Attempt to Persuade Ye Ding Zhi
In episode 27, Bai Li Dong Jun has been "confined" by his master to the training grounds, where he practices his sword skills every day. He knows that his attempt to steal a bride has brought shame to the Bai Li family. His father intentionally brings up this incident at the door, as well as the old story of when he pursued Dong Jun's mother, which the grandfather strongly opposed.
His father's words make Dong Jun realize that now that he's involved in court politics, he has to play by the rules and can't just act on impulse. Dong Jun is grateful for his father's guidance and goes to thank him. Meanwhile, Ye Ding Zhi continues his journey with his master and Wu Chan. The master tells Ye Ding Zhi about Dong Jun's situation, while Si Kong Chang Feng has already left them.
The carefree Wu Chan boasts that his master can talk to all kinds of flying and running animals, which makes the envious Ye Ding Zhi wish he could be as free-spirited. Yue Yao, who is being confined, is desperate to get out. When Mo Qi Xuan arrives, Yue Yao quickly asks about Dong Jun's situation.
Mo Qi Xuan realizes that Yue Yao is truly invested in this. Yue Yao writes a note to Mo Qi Xuan in her own blood, begging him to help her escape. At night, Mo Qi Xuan tries to help Yue Yao flee, but they are intercepted halfway. Mo Qi Xuan tells Yue Yao to go on ahead while he deals with the pursuers.
Yue Yao reluctantly leaves first, feeling anxious. On his end, Mo Qi Xuan ends up fighting his former brother Yu Ji, who ultimately can't bring himself to seriously harm his sibling. After Yue Ji leaves, Mo Qi Xuan goes to regroup with Yue Yao, but tells her he won't be leaving with her, as even though he can't stay in the heavenly realm, there is a place for him in the vast world.
Yue Yao has no choice but to continue on alone. When the Wuxiang Master learns of Yue Yao's escape, Yui Ji proactively apologizes. The Wuxiang Master sighs and doesn't punish him, only sending him to deal with another matter - which is essentially a death sentence. Ye Ding Zhi and his master have reached their destination, and three months have passed as Ye Ding Zhi adjusts to the new environment.
Wuchen circles around Ye Ding Zhi every day, claiming he wants to teach him his master's sword techniques, even though he himself doesn't really know them. Ye Ding Zhi's martial arts progress at an astonishing speed, but he's still preoccupied with thoughts of Yi Wen Jun. After Yi Wen Jun married Xiao Ruo Jin, she's been in a constant state of melancholy.
The doctor said she's pregnant, and she angrily pushed the doctor down. In fact, this child was intentionally conceived by Xiao Ruo Jin. Ye Ding Zhi is still arduously practicing the Demonic Immortal Sword, but every time he's about to lose control, his master uses the Golden Bell Cover to restrain him. Ye Ding Zhi recalls the final technique that his master Yu Sheng Mo taught him, but he's unable to master it.
He had originally intended to learn this sword technique and use it to escape with Yi Wen Jun, but now it seems like just a fantasy. One night, as Ye Ding Zhi was about to retire, he suddenly heard a noise outside. It was Yue Qing, who came again to try to coax him, saying she could help him attain everything, but Ye Ding Zhi refused.
Meanwhile, Dong Jun is still worrying about Ye Ding Zhi, when he suddenly discovers the score his master left behind. Yue Yao happens to be at Dong Jun's doorstep and upon hearing the music, she realizes it's Dong Jun playing the score she left behind, filling her with joy. Ye Ding Zhi has four good brothers who have been secretly following him, and he tells them to go to Tianqi City first.
Yuji arrived at Nanjue, only to meet his demise. When Mo Qixuan arrived, Yuji was already in a critical condition. Mo Qixuan carried Yuji away, his heart full of mixed emotions. Xiao Ruo Feng went to visit Yi Wen Jun, but she didn't greet him warmly. Xiao Ruo Feng knew Yi Wen Jun was pregnant and came to ask her what she planned to do.
Yi Wen Jun said that if the child was not meant to be, she would not insist on keeping it. Yue Qing heard about Yi Wen Jun's pregnancy and laughed maniacally, saying that true intentions are all false.
