Love Game in Eastern Fantasy Episode 25 Recap
> Love Game in Eastern Fantasy Recap
Mu Sheng wanted to know why Master Wenxin didn’t dare to enter the Wenxin Formation. When asked, Master Wenxin dodged the question, which prompted Mu Sheng to question if he was deliberately being cryptic to hide his true plans. Master Wenxin, however, turned the tables, provoking Mu Sheng instead. But Mu Sheng, being a half-demon who had endured much suffering since childhood, didn’t care about the pain or trials he might face.
His reason for saving the world wasn’t for others but for his family, friends, and comrades—those he truly cared about. As for everyone else, he was indifferent and certainly wouldn’t be swayed by Master Wenxin’s provocations. Liu Fuyi brought over some bedding to make a comfortable spot for Mu Yao on the soft couch in Master Wenxin’s study.
While resting, Mu Yao unintentionally discovered that the formations Master Wenxin had drawn were identical to those her father had used in the Xing Shan Temple. Why did her father use them, and why was Master Wenxin drawing them now? Worried that learning the truth might overwhelm Mu Yao, Liu Fuyi went ahead to question Master Wenxin. Master Wenxin had intentionally let Mu Yao see his notes and was now waiting for Liu Fuyi.
Seven years ago, Master Wenxin left the Ràn Valley for the last time to seek the truth. He confirmed that Mu Yao’s father had been collecting demon cores from great demons to fight the Vengeful Woman. He had always known that the root of the Catastrophe lay with the Vengeful Woman. Liu Fuyi realized that Mu Yao hoped her father’s actions and words had deeper reasons rather than being the deeds of a hypocrite.
Master Wenxin explained that twenty years ago, the Imperial Astronomical Bureau had foretold the birth of a destined celestial-grade demon hunter. Everyone, including Mu Yao’s father, believed he was the one. However, on the day the Mu family was massacred, he died at the hands of the Vengeful Woman. Liu Fuyi had one final question—who was Master Wenxin?
Master Wenxin revealed that he was an old friend of Mu Yao’s father and that the artifact in her possession was something he had crafted himself. Liu Fuyi finally realized that his master was none other than Lu Huaian, the very person Mu Yao’s father had been searching for all his life. Meanwhile, Mu Sheng was bored during training and threw a tantrum by sprawling on the ground.
Qingqing commented that he was far from matching the prowess of the Goddess of the past. Mu Sheng wondered what would happen to the world if he failed to master his skills and couldn’t save it. Qingqing’s response was simple: never leave regrets with the one you love. Hearing this, Mu Sheng immediately dropped his weapon and went off to find the person he cherished. Mu Sheng struggled to merge with the Crescent Moon Sword, much to Ling Miaomiao’s distress.
Master Wenxin remarked that he needed to find his origin to achieve this. Mu Sheng, however, knew everything but resisted recalling his childhood. Surprisingly, Mu Sheng approached Ling Miaomiao and asked her to accompany him to Qilin Mountain. He didn’t want to leave any regrets and wished to face everything head-on. Ling Miaomiao saw the dust demons forming symbols that were 99% complete but couldn’t remember what they meant.
As Ling Miaomiao and Mu Sheng departed, Master Wenxin told Mu Yao and Liu Fuyi that they needed to find the Vengeful Woman to stop everything. Although the Hundred-Demon Atlas had been mostly burned, Master Wenxin assured them it could still be repaired. Years ago, he had entrusted the Lu family treasure, the Hundred-Demon Atlas, to Mu Yao’s father, as he preferred not to meddle in worldly affairs. To repair the Atlas, the two decided to head to Cainan County.
Cui Cui was heartbroken to see the group of five splitting up, though he took solace in having his grandfather by his side. Mu Sheng and Ling Miaomiao set out for Qilin Mountain, following the map. Along the way, they bickered like children but shared many sweet moments. Mu Sheng even dragged Ling Miaomiao to find a painting demon to have their portraits drawn. Ling Miaomiao playfully made a scissors-hand gesture for the picture.
She couldn’t remember where the gesture came from but knew it symbolized happiness. Mu Yao and Liu Fuyi also departed for Cainan County, Liu Fuyi’s hometown. However, as they drew closer, Liu Fuyi’s mood became increasingly somber, which didn’t escape Mu Yao’s notice, leaving her a bit concerned. No one knew the exact location of Qilin Mountain until they saw Wufang Town on the map.
They heard that many people had been visiting the town in recent years to listen to opera performances, so Mu Sheng and Ling Miaomiao decided to head there. While dismounting the carriage, Ling Miaomiao accidentally dropped a book. It contained her strategy guide, but Ling Miaomiao had no memory of it at all.
