Moonlight Mystique Episode 24 Recap
> Moonlight Mystique Recap
Although Fan Yue used his demonic powers to protect Qi Feng's heart and attempted to remove the evil parasite from his body, he found himself powerless to do so. Since Cang Shan could not leave to search for his mother, Bai Shuo and Fan Yue decided to go on the search themselves, leaving Cang Shan behind to look after Qi Feng. However, shortly after they left, Qi Feng suddenly woke up.
Cang Shan, in his kind and naive manner, enthusiastically carried him to a chair and covered him with a blanket. Qi Feng feigned weakness and offered Cang Shan a "gift"—he led him to open a nearby stone door, revealing the stiff, lifeless body of Cang Shan’s mother. Meanwhile, Bai Shuo and Fan Yue encountered Shi Bo, who was attempting to escape with Shi Lei. However, Shi Lei insisted on staying to protect the Shi Clan.
When pressed by the three, Shi Bo reluctantly recounted the Shi Clan’s past: the clan once suffered from a debilitating bone-softening disease. Desperate for a cure, they resorted to digging up and consuming the spiritual bones of the ancient Bai Ze Clan. Upon hearing this, Fan Yue was furious. This revelation confirmed that Qi Feng was the boy whose legs had been broken by the Shi Clan long ago.
At that moment, Qi Feng restrained Cang Shan and revealed the truth: it was Cang Shan himself, in a fit of madness, who had broken his own legs. To protect him, Cang Xuan had used his own demonic core to suppress Cang Shan’s berserk condition and erased his memories, taking all the blame upon himself. Qi Feng crushed his father’s demonic core in front of Cang Shan, who was overwhelmed with grief.
As Cang Shan lashed out in anger, Qi Feng framed him, claiming before everyone that Cang Shan’s berserk condition had caused him to kill his mother and harm others. The clan, already aware of Cang Shan’s condition as a child, believed Qi Feng’s words and tied Cang Shan up, intending to burn him alive. Fortunately, Bai Shuo arrived in time to stop them. Initially, the clan members refused to believe Bai Shuo’s explanation.
It wasn’t until Shi Bo stepped forward and revealed that Qi Feng’s actions were driven by revenge that they began to see the truth. Bai Shuo reminded everyone that their fear had led them to act unjustly toward Cang Shan and urged them to unite against the true enemy. Her words convinced them, and they resolved to stand together. Fan Yue, on the other hand, confronted Qi Feng alone.
Qi Feng revealed his identity as Chen Ye of Lengquan Palace and declared that all Shi Clan members must pay for the Bai Ze Clan’s suffering. Fan Yue pleaded with Chen Ye to stop the killings, but at the critical moment, Chen Ye controlled Fan Yue. He had secretly fed Fan Yue a dumpling filled with the mother parasite, with Zhen Yu’s help, allowing Chen Ye to stand tall once more.
Chen Ye trusted no one but his mentor, Zhen Yu, and used the mother parasite to command Fan Yue to kill Cang Shan. Meanwhile, the Shi Clan members, under the control of the parasite larvae in their bodies, attacked Bai Shuo and Cang Shan. In desperation, Bai Shuo summoned the Alien King Sword to stun the attackers but exhausted her spiritual power, leaving her weak.
In the next moment, the Desireless Stone revealed a prophetic vision: the Shi Formation would explode, releasing the Bai Ze Clan’s wrathful energy. Understanding the sacrifices his parents had made to protect him, Cang Shan resolved to take responsibility as the young master of the Shi Clan. Bai Shuo hurried to find Fan Yue and encountered the now freely moving Chen Ye. She tried to explain the pain and struggles Fan Yue had endured over the years.
During their confrontation, Bai Shuo used the power of the Desireless Stone to enter Chen Ye’s consciousness. She saw Qi Feng’s memories from his youth: after barely escaping the Tiger Clan, Qi Feng returned to the Bai Ze Clan, only to find a land filled with graves. The absence of Fan Yue’s grave brought him a sliver of hope amid his grief.
However, after his legs were broken and he was taken in by Zhen Yu, he renamed himself Chen Ye and was consumed entirely by his desire for revenge. Bai Shuo even saw her sister’s younger self within Lengquan Palace.
