The Blossoming Love Episode 4 Recap
> The Blossoming Love Recap
Xie Xuechen was about to attack Zhan Ying when Mu Xuanling stopped him, saying she should handle it instead. Xie Xuechen insisted that he would take care of it, but Mu Xuanling pointed out that his spiritual power had not fully recovered and insisted on doing it herself. Zhan Ying grew impatient, asking whether they were going to fight him or not.
While Xie Xuechen and Mu Xuanling argued over who would face Zhan Ying, Nan Xuyue appeared and sealed Zhan Ying into his fan. Before being sealed, Zhan Ying realized that they had already set up a formation and asked what mistake he had made. However, neither Xie Xuechen nor the others responded, and Zhan Ying’s projection was captured. Back in the Dark Abyss, Yu Ying asked Zhan Ying if he had died. Zhan Ying replied that he was still alive.
Yu Ying remarked that if Zhan Ying was alive, then Xie Xuechen and Mu Xuanling must have died. Zhan Ying clarified that neither of them had died. Chi Ying urged Zhan Ying to quickly retrieve his projection. Zhan Ying activated his spiritual power to recover it but failed. Meanwhile, Mu Xuanling asked Xie Xuechen how he had realized that Gao Qiumin was possessed by Zhan Ying. Xie Xuechen didn’t answer and walked away.
Nan Xuyue told her that Xie Xuechen would explain when he was ready and then asked why she was following him. Mu Xuanling confessed that she liked Xie Xuechen and asked Nan Xuyue if there was truly an engagement between Xie Xuechen and Gao Qiumin. Nan Xuyue replied that there didn’t seem to be one, but rumors within the Immortal Alliance had led people to believe there was.
Mu Xuanling said that Xie Xuechen carried the weight of the world on his shoulders, so she was content to stay by his side and protect him. Nan Xuyue looked at her, thinking to himself that this must be what it meant to give selflessly without expecting anything in return. Later, they returned to their rooms, and Xie Xuechen carried Gao Qiumin away. Mu Xuanling, seeing this, remarked that he actually carried her.
She jokingly asked Nan Xuyue if it was still possible to release Zhan Ying now. Her comment made Nan Xuyue laugh. Gao Qiumin then woke up, and Xie Xuechen explained that she had been possessed by someone from the Dark Clan. Gao Qiumin became furious, saying she should have killed all of them back then. Gao Qiumin asked about her junior sister, Cui Wanwan. Xie Xuechen reassured her that Cui Wanwan had already been sent back to Jinghua Palace.
Suddenly, fireworks appeared in the sky. Nan Xuyue recognized it as Feng Yao’s signal. He explained that the purple-red fireworks indicated either an enemy attack or a traitor within the Immortal Alliance. After some discussion, the group decided to head to Jinghua Palace to investigate. Gao Qiumin, seeing Mu Xuanling, commented that she didn’t recognize her. Nan Xuyue, noticing Xie Xuechen’s silence, introduced Mu Xuanling as his cousin.
Mu Xuanling insisted on accompanying them to Jinghua Palace, but Xie Xuechen refused. Mu Xuanling retorted that even without his permission, she could still go. Nan Xuyue told her to pack her things and join them later. Xie Xuechen warned Mu Xuanling that the palace master of Jinghua Palace, Su Ningzhen, deeply resented the Spirit Clan. He advised her to be careful, stating that he wouldn’t help her if anything happened.
When they arrived at Jinghua Palace, Gao Qiumin met Su Ningzhen and told her that she had returned with Xie Xuechen and the others. Su Ningzhen asked why she didn’t see them, and Gao Qiumin explained that they had heard about the missing Jade Token and were pursuing another lead. Su Ningzhen grew agitated upon hearing that Xie Xuechen had been captured by Sang Qi during his disappearance.
She grabbed Gao Qiumin’s hand, urging her to remember that Sang Qi was her enemy and that she must kill him to avenge her. Su Ningzhen squeezed Gao Qiumin’s hand so hard that it left a wound. Realizing this, Su Ningzhen quickly let go and instructed Jinghua Palace Elder Xi to take Gao Qiumin to treat her injury.
Meanwhile, Mu Xuanling, upset that Xie Xuechen didn’t trust her, asked Nan Xuyue if there was something she could use to prove her loyalty. Nan Xuyue produced a pair of bracelets, explaining that wearing them would allow Xie Xuechen to control her. Without hesitation, Mu Xuanling put them on. She and Xie Xuechen deduced that the person who stole the Jade Token might be hiding in a hot spring inn.
Sure enough, they found a Snake Spirit named Yan Si there. A fierce fight broke out between the three. Yan Si was about to injure Mu Xuanling, but Xie Xuechen intervened just in time to pull her away.
