> The Blossoming Love Recap

Mu Xuanling used the Mirror of Time and Space to open a connection between the present and a thousand years ago. Tian Ming, Zhao Ming, and the others each had a conversation with their past selves. They revealed their plan to kill Hao Tian to Zhao Ming, A Zhu, and Tian Ming from a thousand years ago. The past versions of them were cooperative. Next, Mu Xuanling and Tian Ming took the stage.

They connected the timelines, and both Zhao Mings from the past and present pretended to comply with Hao Tian, allowing him to possess them. Eventually, the two Hao Tians met in the same timeline, and they saw through Zhao Ming's plan. Hao Tian mocked them for finding a way to confront him but insisted that they were still no match for him. Hao Tian began brainwashing the two Zhao Mings.

He told the Zhao Ming from the past that he had been suppressed in the Melting Abyss, with no one to love or care for him. To the present Zhao Ming, he said that Mu Xuanling's heart belonged to Xie Xuechen and not him. Both Zhao Mings fell into their respective inner demons. Mu Xuanling and Tian Ming witnessed this scene. They knew they only had a single incense stick’s worth of time to carry out the plan.

As the time ticked down, Mu Xuanling realized that this was Hao Tian’s strategy—he wanted to let the incense burn down, at which point they would be sent back to their own timelines. Mu Xuanling grew anxious, but Tian Ming told her they couldn’t interfere with the timelines of the two Zhao Mings. Mu Xuanling offered all her chaotic power to Tian Ming, asking him to go to their timelines and wake them up.

Tian Ming was reluctant to let Mu Xuanling sacrifice herself and insisted he should be the one to do it. Though Mu Xuanling didn’t want to see him perish, Tian Ming was adamant. Mu Xuanling agreed that if this was the case, she wouldn’t let Tian Ming sacrifice himself for nothing. She went to Zhao Ming's side, and A Zhu went to the side of the Zhao Ming from a thousand years ago.

They both tried to wake up Zhao Ming, but Hao Tian was still in the background, constantly brainwashing him. Finally, Mu Xuanling and A Zhu, with no other choice, gave their chaotic power to Zhao Ming. Zhao Ming woke up, and the two Hao Tians faced each other. They drew their swords and killed each other. Zhao Ming returned to the past and retraced the path he had walked before.

He went to the Eastern Ze Imperial Palace, where he met A Zhu. A Zhu told him that no matter what his fate was, she would stay by his side. She said that even if they were a foolish monarch and a demon queen, it wouldn’t be so bad. But Zhao Ming, even knowing the outcome from a thousand years later and enduring the pain for so long, still chose the world.

Zhao Ming told A Zhu that the time had come, and they must part ways. The two of them shared a deep embrace before parting. Zhao Ming took the Jun Tian sword and flew up to the heavens. He killed the Divine Emperor and all the gods, and finally, he reached the place where Tian Ming was. Other gods in the heavens were begging Tian Ming to stop Zhao Ming.

Zhao Ming stood before Tian Ming and asked if he would still act the same way after Hao Tian had been eliminated. Tian Ming replied that he controlled the cause and effect of time and there was no hypothetical scenario. Zhao Ming told him to make his move. Tian Ming asked if Zhao Ming had anything left to say. Zhao Ming replied that he had no regrets. With that, Zhao Ming was once again sealed beneath the Melting Abyss.

A Zhu, using her chaotic power, returned to the heavens. They now knew what would happen a thousand years later, and A Zhu asked Tian Ming if he would stop her this time. Tian Ming replied that she could do whatever she wished. A Zhu asked Tian Ming what Zhao Ming’s last words were. Tian Ming told her that Zhao Ming had no regrets.

A Zhu sighed, knowing he had endured a thousand years of pain and still made that choice. She then said that since this was the case, they would no longer fight. A Zhu went to the Mirror God and gave him the Mirror of Time and Space, then bade farewell to Tian Ming, descending back to the mortal world. She told him to enjoy his life. After A Zhu left, Tian Ming realized the Destiny Book had lost its meaning.

He destroyed it. Mu Xuanling woke up from her bed and noticed the Spirit Lock Ring around her ankle. She stepped outside and saw a man standing under the Xuanling tree. Mu Xuanling was about to call out Xie Xuechen’s name, but then she saw him use his demonic power to make the tree blossom. Mu Xuanling hesitated, but when the man turned around, she saw that it was indeed Xie Xuechen. The two of them joyfully embraced and kissed.
