Episode 35 recap: Jun Bei Yue and Han Zi Qing Head to Yu Qiong Mountain
---In Episode 35, everyone gathers excitedly to discuss the legendary Yu Shui Qiong Jiang Tian Chi. Jun Bei Yue shares the mysterious location with them and mentions a small tribe nearby, the Liang Ye tribe, known for its skilled individuals, especially in medicine. Hearing this, Bai Li Wei Sheng's eyes light up as he considers taking Xiao Sheng there, thinking it might help with her illness.
Han Zi Qing also thinks it's a great idea and quickly decides they should go. However, with so many people wanting to join, they need a plausible reason. Conveniently, there's a Tian Chi Sheng Xiao gathering happening soon, making it the perfect opportunity. Everyone starts preparing for the trip.
Madam Jin Jiao insists on joining as well, but Bai Li Wei Sheng worries about her health. Madam Jin Jiao insists she wants to personally care for Xiao Sheng. Bai Li Wei Sheng tries to talk her out of it, but she ends up handing the responsibility back to him, saying she needs to calculate Xiao Sheng's birth chart, leaving Bai Li Wei Sheng both amused and exasperated.
Meanwhile, a familiar face unexpectedly appears at Xuan Yuan Li Ge's camp—Yu Xiao Meng. She claims to have come specifically to find Li Ge and wants to stay. Granny Qin gives Li Ge a look, but he ultimately agrees, making it clear that they aren't friends, and she will have to follow his orders. Surprisingly, Xiao Meng readily agrees! Li Ge then takes her to meet the leader of the Snow Region to discuss a collaboration.
Li Ge's bargaining chip is a secret tunnel beneath the deep sea and the legendary Yin Sha weapon. The Snow Region people are skeptical about the weapon, but Li Ge assures them they'll see for themselves.
In the South Zhao Kingdom, the Grand Master learns that Han Zi Qing and the others are heading to Yu Qiong Mountain, but the King has already declined the invitation to the Sheng Xiao gathering. In a state of urgency, the Grand Master decides to visit the palace personally.
Han Zi Qing and Jun Bei Yue are already on their way to Yu Qiong Mountain, hoping the Dream Clan leader has safely returned home. Meanwhile, the Dream Clan leader is sternly punishing Wan Yue and has called in Dream Second and Dream Third to witness the punishment. On another front, Li Ge is exploring the deep sea tunnel with the Snow Region team, and they find themselves in Xi Ling. Li Ge reveals that this tunnel connects the three realms, making the Snow Region realize that his ambitions extend beyond simply attacking Xi Ling.
Han Zi Qing and Jun Bei Yue's journey is going smoothly until they unexpectedly encounter the siblings from the Xiao family. Their carriage speeds by and accidentally collides with Jun Bei Yue's group, damaging both carriages and tossing everyone out. Jun Bei Yue, wanting to avoid trouble, has his shadow give the siblings two horses to leave first.
Han Zi Qing finds a Xiao flute on the ground, recognizing it as belonging to the Xiao family. Jun Bei Yue recognizes them too and decides to return it at the gathering the next day. The siblings return home only to realize the precious white jade flute is missing, and they quickly head out to search for it.
Before long, Han Zi Qing and Jun Bei Yue arrive at Yu Qiong Mountain, where Sheng Zi Mo greets them warmly. Privately, Sheng Zi Mo's father warns him that this Sheng Xiao gathering is not just a talent showcase but a contest for the position of clan leader. He urges Sheng Zi Mo to give it his all while reminiscing about his late daughter, who was extraordinarily gifted—far beyond what Sheng Zi Mo could achieve.
Just as Sheng Zi Mo is feeling the weight of expectations, the Grand Master from South Zhao approaches him, offering help under the condition that Han Zi Qing must be put in a dangerous situation at the Tian Chi. Despite his hesitation, Sheng Zi Mo ultimately agrees.
As the competition begins, all eyes are on Sheng Zi Mo, but he seems overwhelmed. Although he defeats his opponent, he fails to open the Tian Chi. Just then, Xiao Sheng is deeply captivated by the music, her thoughts drifting with the melody as if it resonates within her. As the crowd awkwardly reacts to Sheng Zi Mo's failure, Xiao Sheng bravely steps forward.
