The Legend of Shen Li Episode 16 Recap
> The Legend of Shen Li Recap
Shen Li and Xing Zhi went together to search for the Mortal Realm’s Fusheng Gate. They searched for a long time but found no trace of it until Xing Zhi used a strand of Shen Li’s hair to sweep away the gloom, making the gate instantly visible. As they stepped into the Fusheng Gate, resentment filled the air, and evil spirits were everywhere. Shen Li fought bravely and soon the ground was littered with defeated, lifeless spirits.
The last remaining spirit confessed that to the left was the prison where the earth spirits were held, and to the right was the mastermind’s hiding place. Shen Li entrusted Xing Zhi with the task of rescuing the earth spirits while she headed to the right to eliminate the demons.
Recently, rumors had been spreading everywhere in the Mortal Realm that it was the Spirit Realm’s people causing trouble and tarnishing their reputation, so Shen Li naturally couldn’t let this pass. Finally, Shen Li met the mastermind—Fu Sheng. Although Fu Sheng was clearly a mortal, Shen Li soon understood the truth: Fu Sheng had manipulated her former general, Zixia.
Everyone had believed that Zixia had already sacrificed himself, but Fu Sheng had schemed to confuse Zixia’s mind with resentment, turning him into an accomplice to evil. Shen Li couldn’t bear to strike harshly at her own subordinate, and Fu Sheng exploited her compassion to seize her by the throat, nearly choking her to death. At that moment, Xing Zhi arrived. Seeing the woman he loved almost die, he was furious.
He instantly froze the entire Fusheng Gate in ice; all the evil spirits were frozen in an instant, the miasma gradually dissipated, and the rescued innocent civilians cheered and prayed for blessings. Xing Zhi cradled the badly injured Shen Li in his arms, comforting her and urging her to recover well. With him around, he said, neither the Spirit Realm nor the Mortal Realm would suffer any harm. Hearing Xing Zhi’s tender words, Shen Li was deeply moved.
Until now, she had always fought desperately to protect others—today, someone was willing to protect her with all his might. Meanwhile, Jing Yan carefully tended to Shi Luo, the girl poisoned by the miasma. When he saw Jing Xi drawing close to Fu Rong Jun to help treat the poisoned people, he couldn’t help but feel jealous and went forward to remind Jing Xi to keep her distance from Fu Rong Jun.
Xing Zhi carried the unconscious Shen Li back to the academy. Fu Rong Jun, who was used to seeing the mighty and indomitable King Bicao, now saw her lying weakly and lifelessly on the bed, feeling quite upset inside. Xing Zhi ordered Fu Rong Jun to immediately return to the Immortal Realm to report. Recently, the frequent abductions of earth spirits were very strange.
Although he had just eliminated a major enemy, it was unclear if there were other accomplices, so it was crucial for the Immortal Realm to be informed as soon as possible. Fu Rong Jun knew that Jing Xi had been hurt by Jing Yan in a previous life. To help this innocent and pitiful girl, Fu Rong Jun deliberately appeared as a romantic rival.
Sure enough, Jing Yan grew increasingly jealous whenever he saw Jing Xi always by Fu Rong Jun’s side. Jing Xi didn’t understand who Fu Rong Jun had truly chosen. Jing Yan explained that when he was young, he had once been saved by Shi Luo, and now meeting again was merely his way of repaying a debt of gratitude. After understanding the truth, Jing Xi said no more. Xing Zhi recognized that this Jing Yan was actually Qing Ye.
He invited him for a walk and then awakened his divine consciousness, asking if he knew anything about Fu Sheng. Qing Ye only remembered that in a past life, Fu Sheng had been an advisor to the Eldest Prince and had been executed for aiding and abetting evil.
