The Blossoming Love Episode 26 Recap
> The Blossoming Love Recap
A wanted notice was posted in Bixiao Palace, revealing that He Xianwo had been declared a fugitive. Everyone in the palace was in heated discussion, shocked at He Xianwo's audacity to kidnap Gao Qiumin. Fu Lansheng, deeply saddened, sat alone before the memorial tablets of his parents. A Bao brought him some food, expressing her fears that Fu Lansheng no longer liked her or wanted to see her.
Fu Lansheng reassured her, explaining that while he could no longer bear to see Fu Cangli after what he had done, A Bao would always be A Bao, and he would never dislike her. Just then, Fu Lansheng received news about Gao Qiumin’s whereabouts and rushed to inform Xie Xuechen and the others. Nan Xuyue informed them that Gao Qiumin had been taken by He Xianwo to the Dark Abyss. They couldn’t understand why He Xianwo would bring her there.
Nan Xuyue speculated it was for He Xianwo’s ultimate plan, though they didn’t know exactly what it entailed. Mu Xuanling recalled Fu Cangli once mentioning that He Xianwo wanted to open the Celestial Ladder. She voiced this possibility, and they deduced that He Xianwo had likely mistaken Gao Qiumin for the Chaos Pearl and intended to use her to open the Celestial Ladder. Fu Lansheng, confused, asked how Gao Qiumin could be the Chaos Pearl.
Mu Xuanling clarified that Gao Qiumin was not the Chaos Pearl. Nan Xuyue then revealed that the Chaos Pearl was the one who had severed the Celestial Ladder in the past, which was why He Xianwo sought its power to restore it. Nan Xuyue explained that the ancient divine artifacts, the Chaos Pearl and the Book of Destiny, were heavenly deities far above the human race.
The Chaos Pearl governed time and space as Si Chen, while the Book of Destiny controlled causality as Si Ming. Since the whereabouts of the Book of Destiny were unknown, He Xianwo focused on finding the Chaos Pearl. Fu Lansheng declared that no matter what, he would go to the Dark Abyss to bring Gao Qiumin back. Mu Xuanling stopped him, saying it was impossible for him to go alone and suggesting they needed leverage.
Nan Xuyue instantly understood her implication, gripping his fan tightly. Elsewhere in the Dark Abyss, Gao Qiumin was released from a painting by He Xianwo. It turned out Nan Xuyue had imprisoned her in a painting of his creation. He Xianwo pointed to the spot where the Celestial Ladder had once been severed, demanding Gao Qiumin help restore it. Gao Qiumin insisted she wasn’t the Chaos Pearl. He Xianwo dismissed her denial, claiming she could at least lure the Chaos Pearl.
He revealed that Mu Xuanling was the true Chaos Pearl. Gao Qiumin argued that Mu Xuanling was merely a spirit clan member and couldn’t possibly be the Chaos Pearl. He Xianwo accused her of lying, claiming her denials only confirmed his belief. At that moment, Mu Xuanling and the others arrived. Gao Qiumin immediately accused Nan Xuyue and He Xianwo of being accomplices.
Seeing the real Chaos Pearl, He Xianwo threw Fu Lansheng and Gao Qiumin into a nearby black hole, leaving Nan Xuyue and the others behind. Nan Xuyue then activated the Death Gate Formation against He Xianwo. Xie Xuechen had previously consulted Lord Qian Guang about the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation, learning that it required three powerful individuals but involved one Death Gate.
He Xianwo, realizing Nan Xuyue had set a Death Gate on him, questioned Xie Xuechen’s trust in Nan Xuyue. It turned out Nan Xuyue had confided in Xie Xuechen earlier, claiming he had been coerced. However, Nan Xuyue soon revealed his true intentions, setting the Death Gate on all three individuals. The formation, once activated, could not be stopped, and no one could escape. Mu Xuanling collapsed to the ground, severely injured, while Xie Xuechen was only wounded.
Before the battle, Mu Xuanling had given Xie Xuechen a jade token from Nan Xuyue after overhearing a conversation between him and Xuan Xin, learning it could save a life. Nan Xuyue miscalculated, as the person he loved, Mu Xuanling, perished because of him. Staring at her lifeless body in disbelief and agony, he moved forward to check on her. Xie Xuechen warned him that if he took another step, he would kill him.
Feng Yao arrived and took the injured Nan Xuyue away. Mu Xuanling’s blood flowed across the ground, unexpectedly opening the Celestial Ladder. He Xianwo ascended the ladder, finding no gods but discovering the long-lost Book of Destiny.
