Fangs of Fortune Episode 11 Recap
> Fangs of Fortune Recap
Zhao Yuanzhou instructed Bai Jiu to deliver Pei Siheng’s puppet to Pei Sijing. As soon as she set it down, the puppet transformed into her brother himself. Pei Sijing was overjoyed and asked what had happened. Pei Siheng explained that Zhao Yuanzhou had used chaotic magic to preserve his consciousness. Though his thoughts were fragmented, he could now accompany his sister briefly each night.
Pei Siheng blamed himself for being a burden to her since childhood, but Pei Sijing interrupted him, clarifying that she had never thought of him as a burden. She practiced martial arts only to find an elixir in the demon realm that could heal her frail brother. Pei Siheng was relieved that he would no longer cause his sister any worry over his health.
Upon learning that the Demon Hunting Team would head to Kunlun the next day, Ying Lei asked a few questions. Wen Xiao invited Ying Lei to join them, but Ying Lei said he preferred to stay as a cook at the Demon Hunting Division. He didn't understand why his grandfather ignored worldly pleasures to guard the desolate wilderness.
Wen Xiao explained that everyone has a different destiny, and once they find people and things worth dedicating their lives to within that destiny, they would willingly protect it forever. She invited Ying Lei once more. Li Lun met with the man in black, and they discussed how everything was going according to plan. The man in black was excited to have located the Baize Order, but Li Lun thought destroying it would be even more thrilling.
He noted that the night of the blood moon, five days away, was the best time to destroy the Baize Order, so they couldn’t let the Demon Hunting Team reach Kunlun too quickly. The man in black mentioned that he had arranged for Qing Geng to be waiting at the base of Kunlun Mountain. As for Zhao Yuanzhou’s inner core in exchange, Li Lun assured him it would be delivered.
Zhen Mei met with Pei Sijing and instructed her to delay Zhao Yuanzhou and his team in Sinan Water Town. It turned out that Pei Sijing was a spy placed in the Demon Hunting Team by the man in black. The next day, the Demon Hunting Team assembled. As Ying Lei prepared to teleport, he overheard Pei Sijing mentioning Sinan Water Town and absentmindedly altered the route.
The group arrived to find the once prosperous and lively town in decline, with desolate streets speaking of devastation and suffering. Elsewhere, Qing Geng handed the man in black a red string to help them avoid the plague. The Demon Hunting Team found the town empty and couldn't believe how a plague had struck so swiftly. Wen Xiao asked Zhao Yuanzhou to join forces with her to use the Baize Order to quarantine the area and prevent the plague's spread.
Zhao Yuanzhou, hearing that Wen Xiao wanted to hold hands, made a few playful remarks. Pei Sijing asked Zhuo Yichen if he had changed his opinion of Zhao Yuanzhou. Zhuo Yichen denied it, adding that the Chenghuang case had left him feeling that many things seemed too coincidental. Pei Siheng’s sudden appearance and Chenghuang’s conveniently timed explanations made it seem as though everything had been planned in advance, waiting for the Demon Hunting Team to act accordingly.
Bai Jiu and Ying Lei searched the town for medicinal herbs and unexpectedly encountered Wen Zongyu, who was also in Sinan Water Town, treating the sick. A villager mentioned that, under Kunlun Mountain’s protection, the town had been free of disaster for years until the plague broke out five days ago. Zhuo Yichen arrived, saying that Wen Xiao had detected demonic energy through the Baize Order. Since Wen Zongyu couldn’t help with catching demons, he decided to return to Tiandu.
Zhuo Yichen asked him to stop by the government office and borrow some soldiers with his command token. Wen Xiao identified the source of the demonic energy as the nearby Lingxi Villa, and the group headed there. Along the way, Bai Jiu was swept away by a demonic wind, prompting Zhao Yuanzhou and Zhuo Yichen to pursue him while Pei Sijing urged Wen Xiao and Ying Lei to stay back.
Zhuo Yichen secretly entered a room, where he had a brief confrontation with the man in black before being knocked out and placed in a coffin. Zhao Yuanzhou found the unconscious Bai Jiu in the courtyard and revived him before Wen Xiao and the others arrived. The man in black took Zhuo Yichen to Qing Geng but couldn’t wield the Yunguang Sword. Zhao Yuanzhou and Bai Jiu lay in the coffin to experience it themselves and quickly disappeared.
Pretending to be unconscious, Zhuo Yichen overheard the man in black and Qing Geng’s conversation, realizing they planned to use him to obtain Zhao Yuanzhou’s inner core. When Zhuo Yichen refused to cooperate, Qing Geng pierced him with a demon bone needle, causing him unbearable pain.
