Love and Sword Episode 2 Recap
> Love and Sword Recap
Tang Wu took Yan Shao to the Cold Pond, hoping the chilling waters could temporarily suppress the poison within him. He also informed Yan Shao that the poison had been inside Rong Shukuang for a long time, which meant someone had poisoned her. Suddenly, people from the Ghost Valley Alliance arrived in pursuit. Yan Shao hurriedly emerged from the Cold Pond, rushing back to hide with Rong Shukuang, protecting her in his arms.
Rong Shukuang, feeling his warmth, thought that dying here wouldn't be so bad after all. Using his excellent medical skills, Tang Wu treated a member of the Ghost Valley Alliance, correctly diagnosing his ailments and even gifting him a box of medicine, which made them retreat. Tang Wu, preparing to leave with his merchant convoy, bid farewell to Yan Shao and Rong Shukuang.
Yan Shao handed his token to Tang Wu in thanks, saying that if he ever needed help in the future, Tang Wu would be at his service. Tang Wu had already guessed Yan Shao's identity, and seeing the token only confirmed his suspicions. Afterward, Yan Shao took Rong Shukuang to the Wuqing Building. With a fee of one hundred gold, anyone could enter, but they had to hang their weapons on a tree outside.
By entering the Wuqing Building, it was like paying a protection fee, ensuring no one could pursue them inside. The building’s owner, Jin Buyao, initially planned to make Rong Shukuang pay, but upon learning her identity, he understood Yan Shao’s intentions and generously allowed them entry. He even arranged for Rong Shukuang to bathe. Meanwhile, in another room, Fei Wu and Feng Ming were helping Yan Shao by applying ice to control the poison.
Fei Wu couldn’t understand who could have hurt Yan Shao so badly and was even more displeased that he would damage himself for a woman. Every time Yan Shao drew poison for Rong Shukuang, it worsened his condition, only extending his life by a few years. But Yan Shao felt it was worth it, as it gave Rong Shukuang a chance to survive. Every time she slept, Yan Shao would draw the poison, secretly vowing to protect her forever.
In his heart, Rong Shukuang was the woman he had sworn to protect all his life—Fang Yi, who was actually Rong Shukuang. The next morning, Rong Shukuang wanted to say goodbye to Yan Shao, but he didn’t come out of his room. She assumed that Yan Shao had completed his mission and no longer needed to protect her, so she began considering ways to protect herself. Jin Buyao took her outside, where many martial artists were drinking in the hall.
Rong Shukuang tried to find someone to protect her, but after introductions, she realized that none of them were suitable. Eventually, she noticed a man sitting in a corner and approached him, hoping he would escort her to Yuchi Mountain Manor. To her shock, it was Shen Zuitian. Terrified, she immediately stood up and fled. At that moment, Tang Yingluo and Yu Linglong arrived, claiming they were there to protect Rong Shukuang.
She rushed to find Yan Shao, who had already sensed the situation outside. He knew that Tang Yingluo and Yu Linglong were only interested in meeting Lin Shaoci and had no true intention of protecting Rong Shukuang. Realizing this, Rong Shukuang suddenly realized that Yan Shao was the best person to protect her. She proposed that he be her protector, but Yan Shao pretended to refuse, urging her to wait patiently for people from Yuchi Mountain Manor.
Rong Shukuang, worried that Shen Zuitian might kill her at any moment, was about to leave in anger, when Yan Shao suddenly clutched his chest. Yan Shao took another bath to try to cleanse the poison. Just then, Shen Zuitian arrived in his room, testing Yan Shao’s abilities. Reluctantly, Yan Shao had no choice but to spar with him. Yan Shao won the confrontation, and Shen Zuitian asked why he was protecting Rong Shukuang.
He guessed that it wasn’t because of her character but rather because Yan Shao might be using her to obtain the treasure. He proposed that they join forces to attack Yuchi Mountain Manor and seize the treasure. Yan Shao refused, stating that he was unwilling to share a woman or wealth. Shen Zuitian warned Yan Shao that having friends was better than having enemies and urged him to reconsider.
Later, Yan Shao and Rong Shukuang entered the hall, where they saw Shen Zuitian feeding a dog named A Lie. Rong Shukuang, fearful of becoming the dog’s next meal, couldn’t help but worry. Yan Shao teasingly told Rong Shukuang that if she begged him, he would protect her, to which she rolled her eyes. Just then, Lin Shaoci suddenly entered, causing a stir. Though Rong Shukuang didn’t know Lin Shaoci personally, she immediately guessed his identity based on the commotion.
