Moonlight Mystique Episode 25 Recap
> Moonlight Mystique Recap
Bai Shuo emerged from Chen Ye's consciousness, eager to ask about Bai Xi's whereabouts. However, Chen Ye refused to reveal anything. Despite this, Bai Shuo noticed Chen Ye's complicated feelings toward Fan Yue in his subconscious. Years ago, the clan leader had entrusted him with not only protecting Fan Yue but also safeguarding him with his life. Even during his imprisonment by the Tiger Clan, though confused and afraid, Chen Ye never betrayed Fan Yue.
Embarrassed and angry, Chen Ye refused to admit this truth. In the stone formation, Fan Yue, influenced by the mother parasite, repeatedly attacked Cang Shan. Just as Cang Shan was on the verge of death, Bai Shuo rushed over and awakened Fan Yue. Chen Ye once again controlled the mother parasite, ordering Fan Yue to attack Bai Shuo and seize the Desireless Stone.
Cang Shan, wielding a blade, threatened Chen Ye to stop, but Chen Ye retaliated by threatening the lives of the entire Shi Clan. Watching his people die one after another, Cang Shan was overwhelmed with pain and knelt, pleading with Chen Ye to stop. However, Chen Ye showed no mercy. Cang Shan and Bai Shuo worked together to expel the mother parasite from Fan Yue's body and lured it into Cang Shan’s body.
Determined to protect the Shi Clan and end all grudges, Cang Shan resolutely self-destructed with the mother parasite. In an instant, the Shi Clan members fell unconscious. Cang Shan’s sacrifice destroyed the stone formation, releasing the Bai Ze Clan’s vengeful energy, which rushed into Bai Shuo's forehead. Overwhelmed by the hatred, Bai Shuo fell into a coma. After Cang Shan’s death, only a stone-shaped relic remained. Grieving deeply, Fan Yue held the stone tightly in his hands.
Zhong Zhao shared the secret of an ancient mirror hidden in Zhen Yu’s room with Lanling Sect. Jin Yao and others examined the diagram of the mirror’s patterns and, along with other clues, speculated that Zhen Yu might be connected to the ancient Hidden Clan. They believed his ultimate ambition was to become a god. Although they couldn’t be certain, Jin Yao knew the risk was too great and decided to summon the seventy-two sects of the Eternal Race.
Fan Yue brought Bai Shuo back to Bright Moon Palace, where she remained in a deep coma, causing him both confusion and anxiety. Meanwhile, in her dreamlike state, Bai Shuo arrived at a Bai Ze Clan village, where she encountered Gu Shang and other Bai Ze clansmen. Initially, they were unwelcoming toward her as an outsider. However, Gu Shang stepped out of the crowd and revealed that he had been waiting for her for a long time.
Tian Huo, searching for survivors of the Tiger Clan, learned of Cang Shan’s death and furiously vowed to kill Chen Ye to avenge him. Knowing that, although the mother parasite was dead, the larvae still lingered in the Shi Clan members, Fan Yue stopped Tian Huo. He brought Chen Ye to a secret chamber and showed him the Bai Ze Clan’s name plaques, hoping it would help Chen Ye let go of his hatred.
However, Chen Ye insisted that the Shi Clan must pay with their lives. After leaving the chamber, Fan Yue joined Tian Huo to mourn Cang Shan. Tian Huo, having calmed down, introduced a Tiger Clan orphan, A Nuo, who recounted the day the Tiger Clan was annihilated.
According to A Nuo’s memories, the order to destroy the clan came from Chen Ye himself, while the Tiger King, his father, followed the commands of a mysterious figure with a black serpent tattoo. Chen Ye immediately recalled seeing a similar tattoo on Zhen Yu’s arm, leading him to suspect Zhen Yu. Meanwhile, Zhen Yu summoned Zhong Zhao and, to ensure his absolute loyalty, infused him with demonic and hidden powers, severing his ties to the Eternal Race.
He also instructed Zhong Zhao to cultivate the method of merging demonic and eternal powers. After returning to his room, Zhong Zhao tried in vain to expel the demonic power, realizing that he could never return to Lanling Sect. He urged Fu Ling to leave Lengquan, but Fu Ling decided to face the future with Zhong Zhao. Bai Shuo, still in her vision, met Gu Shang, the Bai Ze Clan leader, and curiously asked how he knew her.
Gu Shang explained that the Bai Ze Clan’s vengeful energy had been suppressed by the stone formation, preventing them from communicating with the outside world. Fortunately, the Desireless Stone acted as a medium, allowing him to speak with Bai Shuo. Grateful that Bai Shuo was by Fan Yue’s side, Gu Shang decided to reveal the truth about the violet-eyed boy before the Bai Ze Clan dissipated completely.
