Destiny and Saving Episode 13 Recap
> Destiny and Saving Recap
Po Yun was also stunned. He couldn’t understand why there were two Feng Lixues, but he guessed that Feng Lixue had come back to life, and perhaps many strange things had happened in between. So he decided to go find Wu Chen immediately. After Murong Jing couldn't find Wu Chen, she searched everywhere. At the same time, Wu Chen encountered Po Yun, who had come to find her.
Wu Chen wanted to understand from Po Yun whether she was truly Feng Lixue. Until now, she had only heard others say she was Feng Lixue, but she herself wanted to know the truth. Po Yun was also uncertain who was Feng Lixue, but he was sure that Wu Chen was not, because the real Feng Lixue would never be with Mo Xiao.
Just then, the woman in the phoenix mask suddenly appeared and told Wu Chen that Mo Xiao and she were enemies who had killed her father—they could never be together. However, Wu Chen treated her like a benefactor and followed her. The masked woman suddenly launched an attack on Wu Chen with a Phoenix Feather Chain. Wu Chen fought back, and Po Yun, afraid Wu Chen would get hurt, stepped in front to protect her.
In the process, a bronze mirror he was carrying fell to the ground. During the fight between Wu Chen and the masked woman, both were wounded and coughed up blood onto the mirror. Strangely, the two drops of blood quickly merged together. Po Yun suspected someone had used a soul-splitting technique. Wu Chen, however, had already left—she wanted to find the truth in her own way. Murong Jing returned in a panic after failing to find Wu Chen.
Just as Mo Xiao was about to go search, Wu Chen came back. She reassured everyone there was no need to worry about her. She was just an orphan girl and had nothing to do with the Heavenly Secret Vault—no one would harm her. She even asked Mo Xiao if he agreed. Mo Xiao didn’t know how to respond, only saying it was better to stay cautious. Wu Chen, looking heartbroken, returned to her room.
Everyone could sense that she was no longer the carefree girl she used to be. That night, Wu Chen had a dream. She dreamt of young Feng Lixue being saved by Chong Guang. But she insisted on going out to kill Mo Xiao and the others to avenge her father. In her desperation for revenge, she forced a wisp of her divine consciousness out of her body.
Chong Guang isolated this vengeful consciousness and erased Feng Lixue’s memory, leaving only the orphan girl Wu Chen, who had no memories or hatred—like a blank piece of paper, quietly waiting. Wu Chen awoke from the dream, saw Murong Jing still sound asleep, and didn’t wake her. The next day, Mo Xiao noticed Wu Chen was not in good spirits and wanted to check on her, only to discover her wrist was injured.
Wu Chen pretended not to know how she got hurt and went to find Zi Su to apply medicine. Mo Xiao was shocked because he had seen the same kind of injury on the masked woman’s wrist and couldn’t understand why Wu Chen had the same wound. Senior Brother Lu suddenly arrived with an order from Yuan Beichen, demanding the execution of Feng Lixue.
They believed that only by killing Feng Lixue could they prevent the Heavenly Secret Vault from resurfacing in the martial world. Mo Xiao immediately accepted the order but insisted that he would be the only one to carry it out. Anyone who acted on their own would be considered disobeying orders. Senior Brother Lu thought Mo Xiao was just afraid others would steal his credit and readily agreed. Xie Lingyun questioned Mo Xiao's decision to obey this order.
The sect leader was known to be kind-hearted and would not normally order a killing—not even of a demon. But now he had ordered the death of Feng Lixue, even though Wu Chen and the masked woman didn’t know who the real Feng Lixue was. Mo Xiao still accepted the task. He emphasized that Wu Chen was just Wu Chen—not Feng Lixue—which finally eased Xie Lingyun’s concerns.
But Mo Xiao still had lingering doubts about both Wu Chen and the masked woman. Mo Xiao noticed Wu Chen was troubled and hoped she would confide in him. But Wu Chen said everyone has their own secrets, which they might share with the person they trust most—or keep to themselves. She added that it was Xie Lingyun who had taught her this. Mo Xiao was left speechless.
Chong Guang also learned about the execution order and couldn't help laughing, thinking that Shu Mountain had become afraid. However, he believed that Mo Xiao wouldn’t kill anyone and that he would investigate the truth. By the time the truth was uncovered, it would be too late. Chang Ming suggested killing the masked woman to save Wu Chen from hardship, but Chong Guang wasn’t in a hurry.
He believed that Wu Chen would eventually awaken, and when she did, the masked woman would naturally disappear. Wu Chen kept thinking about the masked woman’s words, unsure if it was true that Mo Xiao had killed her father. Meanwhile, Mo Xiao was closely observing Wu Chen, trying to figure out the relationship between her and the masked woman. Tongming Island did appear, and the Poison Lady and others prepared to go there, only to discover poisonous mist around the area.
They didn’t dare venture further and decided they needed to find the masked woman quickly. Upon hearing the island had appeared, Mo Xiao hurried over. The lake was filled with bamboo rafts and many casualties—most people never returned, and newcomers were too afraid to enter. Senior Brother Lu came to press Mo Xiao about chasing Feng Lixue. Mo Xiao said he had already accepted the sect master’s order and didn’t need Lu’s nagging.
Lu felt embarrassed and left with his men. Xie Lingyun couldn’t wait for Mo Xiao’s decision and decided to take Murong Jing to check the canyon entrance first, leaving Zi Su and the others behind. Zi Su went to find Wu Chen, who also happened to be looking for her. The two agreed to go buy sticky rice dumplings, but Wu Chen had already guessed Zi Su’s real purpose—to kill her.
Wu Chen said she was happy for Mo Xiao to have such a loyal friend. She didn’t mean to drag Mo Xiao into this and didn’t want to wait any longer. She planned to leave soon and asked Zi Su to say goodbye to everyone on her behalf. Earlier, Po Yun had already met with Wu Chen. She planned to go to Tongming Island herself, believing the masked woman would follow—and Mo Xiao would definitely come too.
Po Yun knocked out Zi Su and took Wu Chen to the island. News of the masked demon woman heading to the island spread, and everyone began to stir. Mo Xiao locked himself in his room, silently studying the relationship between Wu Chen and the masked woman. He discovered that someone had used a soul-splitting technique—a forbidden spell among orthodox sects but one known to the demon clan.
Senior Brother Lu, seeing Mo Xiao still hadn’t acted, planned to enlist disciples from Penglai to kill Feng Lixue. Zi Su, upon waking, went to Mo Xiao and informed him that Wu Chen had left. At the same time, she also learned the masked woman had gone to Tongming Island. Mo Xiao rushed to the canyon entrance to find Xie Lingyun and told him that the masked woman and Wu Chen might be the same person.
He planned to go to the island to resolve the issue and asked Xie Lingyun and the others to stop anyone from entering. Xie Lingyun and Zi Su set up a barrier. The Poison Lady and others arrived soon after but were blocked and became furious, ready to attack the barrier. In their view, if Shu Mountain's people could go to the island, so should they. Po Yun led Wu Chen to Wuming Island, where they heard beasts roaring below.
The island rested on the back of a giant beast. If the beast awoke due to any disturbance, Wuming Island could collapse instantly. Worried that Wu Chen might have trouble walking, Po Yun found a stick for her to hold onto so they could climb together without getting tired. Wu Chen said she didn’t remember this, and Po Yun sighed that she had grown up—it was normal to forget things.
Still, Wu Chen held onto the stick and followed Po Yun up the path. Po Yun remembered when they came here with Feng Xingtian—the entrance had been on the cliff wall, but now it had vanished. The masked woman suddenly appeared behind them, saying the landscape had changed dramatically over time, and so had the entrance. She declared that Wu Chen would disappear today.
Wu Chen did not back down, believing that only one of them could be the real Feng Lixue—and that could only be proven by opening the Heavenly Secret Vault. The masked woman attacked Wu Chen, but Mo Xiao arrived in time to save her. Suddenly, the ground split open. The masked woman and Po Yun fell into one hole, while Mo Xiao and Wu Chen fell into another.
Wu Chen insisted she had come to open the vault to prove who was truly Feng Lixue. She guessed that Mo Xiao had come because he believed she was the real one but wasn’t sure about her connection with the masked woman. Mo Xiao replied that he didn’t care who Wu Chen really was—he just wanted her to always remain pure and never fall into the path of darkness.
