A Love Story of Oiled Paper Umbrella Episode 24 (Ending) Recap
> A Love Story of Oiled Paper Umbrella Recap
Meng Xizhou told the people that she had already brought them out of the illusion, but they kept demanding that she return it to them. She explained that even when they knew it was fake, they would rather die in the Elysium Realm than wake up. At that moment, Ren Guang began to take control of her body again.
He asked Meng Xizhou if she could see it now: even if they knew it was an illusion, they refused to wake up. Instead of being grateful, their obsessions only deepened. Meng Xizhou was dismayed, asking how it had come to this, but Ren Guang told her to stop dreaming of mercy. As he spoke, Meng Xizhou was completely overtaken by him. Ren Guang mocked her, saying that mercy could never save humanity.
Ren Guang explained that as long as humans had attachments, they would have obsessions, and those obsessions would make them stronger. He declared that his black nightmare would put an end to it all, and all humans would die here. Meng Xizhou cried out in protest, but it was too late—Ren Guang had completely taken over her body. Du Yuelian and the Dog Demon arrived with the demon hunters and other small demons. Du Yuelian ordered Ren Guang to surrender.
Ren Guang sneered, doubting they could kill him. The Dog Demon retorted that his tribe was no pushover. Ren Guang mocked them as worthless disciples of the Celestial Master’s Manor and traitorous demons, declaring they were doomed to die. Du Yuelian and the others attacked Ren Guang, but he easily defeated them all. Ren Guang mocked them for their overconfidence. Just then, Nan Fengyi arrived. Ren Guang laughed, dismissing Nan Fengyi’s limited powers as no match for him.
Nan Fengyi admitted his powers were weak but reminded Ren Guang that he was the only one who could open the Scroll of Mountains and Seas. Saying this, Nan Fengyi opened the scroll, intending to trap Ren Guang inside. Ren Guang taunted him, reminding him that the body he was about to seal was that of the woman he loved most—Meng Xizhou.
At that moment, Meng Xizhou briefly regained control of her body and urged Nan Fengyi to seal her inside the scroll quickly. Reluctantly, Nan Fengyi sealed Meng Xizhou into the Scroll of Mountains and Seas, and he followed her inside. Inside the Scroll of Mountains and Seas, Meng Xizhou temporarily suppressed Ren Guang. She instructed Nan Fengyi to activate the Beidou Yuan Formation to kill her, explaining that only by doing so could both she and Ren Guang disappear.
Meng Xizhou told Nan Fengyi that she was using her willpower to hold Ren Guang in place, but he would soon wake up. She pleaded with him to act quickly, adding that her death was the only way to bring peace between humans and demons. Nan Fengyi hesitated, his tears flowing uncontrollably. Ren Guang urged Nan Fengyi to look at him and asked if he could truly bear to kill the one he loved most.
Meng Xizhou begged Nan Fengyi not to listen to Ren Guang and instructed him to channel his power into the center of her forehead to end it all. Still unable to make the decision, Nan Fengyi found his hand guided by Meng Xizhou as she placed it on her forehead. With that, Ren Guang was destroyed. Meng Xizhou, now gravely weakened, collapsed into Nan Fengyi’s arms.
She called him “Master” and said they had finally returned to how they were in the beginning. She asked if he remembered the first time they met. Nan Fengyi assured her he would never forget. Meng Xizhou then told him to say a proper goodbye and to forget about her. With those words, she dissolved into countless starlights. Nan Fengyi clutched a strand of her remaining soul ashes as he fell out of the Scroll of Mountains and Seas.
Du Yuelian quickly caught him. Beigong Shuo anxiously asked where Meng Xizhou was, but before Nan Fengyi could answer, he fainted. When Nan Fengyi woke up, he told Du Yuelian that he hadn’t killed the sea barbarians—they had been sealed inside the Flying White Brush. Using the last of his strength, he released them and transformed Meng Xizhou into a bird. In the end, Nan Fengyi also died.
Ten years later, Nan Sixu and Dan Qian visited the graves to pay their respects. At Nan Fengyi’s grave, Nan Sixu cried for a long time. Beigong Shuo, looking at a large bird in the sky, hoped it was Meng Xizhou. Du Yuelian offered to use illusions so he could see her again. Together, they entered an illusion where they saw Meng Xizhou and Nan Fengyi, bringing them together and helping them find happiness.
