Love of the Divine Tree Episode 12 Recap
> Love of the Divine Tree Recap
Su Yu came to Mount Wester to pick up Mu Ranwu, and Xue Ranran was surprised to see an old friend while serving tea. She hadn't expected to meet him again on Mount Wester. When Mu Ranwu saw the gleam in Su Yu's eyes, she quickly asked when the two had met. As Xue Ranran went to the courtyard to change the tea, Qiu Xier asked if Xue Ranran had a secret crush on Su Yu.
Xue Ranran remembered that every time she had seen Su Yu in the past, she had been exceptionally happy. But this time, their reunion didn’t excite her as much as before. When Xue Ranran went back to the room to pour more tea, Su Yu asked her why she had come to Mount Wester to cultivate. Su Yishui, worried that Xue Ranran might accidentally reveal something, followed her into the room.
Xue Ranran explained that Su Yishui treated her very well, like family. Su Yu, however, warned her not to be deceived, claiming that Su Yishui was deeply calculating and had even killed his own master. Mu Ranwu, listening nearby, interrupted, saying that the past was better left unspoken. But suddenly, Su Yishui became furious and used his power to choke Su Yu from a distance. Xue Ranran panicked and repeatedly reminded Su Yishui, who eventually released Su Yu.
Mu Ranwu hurriedly took Su Yu away. Seeing Su Yishui angry, Xue Ranran assumed it was because of jealousy over Su Yu and tried to comfort him. She suggested that Su Yishui should be direct with Mu Qingge, as hiding his feelings would never be as effective as Su Yu’s straightforwardness. This made Su Yishui even sadder, and the Ice Lotus began to stir. He had no choice but to force himself to return to his room to rest.
Zeng Yi, seeing Su Yishui in such a miserable state, quickly guessed the cause. He advised Su Yishui to let go of the past and not to treat Xue Ranran as if she were Mu Qingge. If the Ice Lotus consumed him completely, he would no longer have the ability to seal the Spiritual Spring. Su Yu proposed to Mu Ranwu, and Mu Ranwu, reflecting on everything she had done to win his heart, couldn't help but sigh.
She remembered how, when she and her sister were close to starving, Su Yu had saved their lives. Later, Ye Xin took them in and taught them the ways of immortality. However, she could never reach the heights of Mu Qingge, and even Ye Xin didn’t believe her to be a talented cultivator.
Mu Qingge had easily helped Su Yu seize the throne, causing him to admire her daily, while Mu Ranwu was left to play the role of a mere accessory. Now, after all her efforts, she had finally gotten everything she wanted, but the only regret was that she had to rely on Mu Qingge’s rebirth for it to happen. Xue Ranran was meditating in the back mountain, still thinking about Su Yishui's anger during the day.
She felt that Su Yishui must have been upset because Mu Qingge followed Su Yu. Just as Su Yishui was passing by, Xue Ranran started to come up with some compliments to cheer him up, but because of the purity of the Ice Lotus Pond, she was soon removed. Wei Jiu was struggling to cultivate, but it was difficult to restore his previous powers.
Tu Jiuyuan sent him a Spirit-Refining Pill to help restore his internal energy, but Wei Jiu feared that Tu Jiuyuan might take this opportunity to harm him and seize his position. Back in her room, Tu Jiuyuan remembered how, when she was a child, Wei Jiu had taken care of her. She could only sigh, realizing that everything could never return to the way it was.
The old Sect Leader had once entrusted her with the Scarlet Sect’s token, but Tu Jiuyuan had no intention of letting Wei Jiu know about it. Su Yishui gave Mu Qingge’s Nine-Turned Mysterious Iron Furnace to Xue Ranran. She wanted to share Su Yishui’s burdens, so Qiu Xier suggested finding a new female companion for him, which might divert his attention. Xue Ranran, hearing this, felt a strange sadness.
She realized that her lack of spiritual power led her to overthink things. The four disciples worked together to gather the most popular portraits of female immortal cultivators and presented them to Su Yishui. Su Yishui scolded them and punished them to practice in the back courtyard for two hours. While collecting the portraits, the disciples accidentally sent out invitations using talismans, which led several female immortals to come to Mount Wester.
Su Yishui ordered the disciples to apologize to the female immortals. Xue Ranran took the lead and said a few words, but the Peach Blossom Immortal scolded her for playing pranks. Su Yishui immediately sided with Xue Ranran. The Peach Blossom Immortal was not willing to give up. She set a Peach Blossom Curse under the peach tree outside Su Yishui’s room. The first person to be affected by the curse would be overwhelmed with love.
As she waited for Su Yishui to leave, Xue Ranran ran to the door and was struck by the curse. She then rushed into the room and hugged Su Yishui from behind, complimenting his good looks. Su Yishui, feeling flustered, realized that Xue Ranran had been hit by the curse. He quickly broke the spell and kicked Xue Ranran out of the room.
