Ten Niangzi belonged to the Chunhu fox clan, known for their expertise in both medicine and poison. As a sixth-rank practitioner, it was plausible she had saved the villagers, but Liu Fuyi remained skeptical—no medical skill could truly bring people back from the dead. Hearing their conversation, Ten Niangzi explained that her medical skills alone couldn’t achieve such a feat. However, with the help of the icy jade silkworm, it became possible.

She had even saved Li Zhun in this way. Ten years ago, Ten Niangzi had been captured by a demon hunter, but it was Li Zhun who secretly set her free. She had never forgotten Li Zhun's face. After hearing that he inherited the fragrance factory and ceased using demon blood in production, leading to financial ruin, she chose to assist him. Despite falling ill and becoming destitute, Li Zhun remained steadfast in his principles.

Observing his sincerity, Ten Niangzi decided to intervene. Li Zhun was unaware of her true nature as a demon, and saving the villagers was his idea. When Liu Fuyi asked if she had seen any demons, Ten Niangzi said she only found a scythe and a pool of blood when she arrived. Mu Yao requested to borrow the icy jade silkworm.

Initially hesitant, Ten Niangzi eventually agreed, but only after the full moon when the silkworms produced silk for Li Zhun’s medicine. Meanwhile, Liuniang avoided revealing whether the Enchantress was alive or dead. That night, she prepared to take Mu Sheng to uncover the truth but insisted Ling Miaomiao stay behind. Mu Sheng refused, stating that Ling Miaomiao was his fiancée, and he wouldn’t leave her alone no matter what.

Ling Miaomiao, understanding the situation, reassured him that she could manage and was placed in the same room as Tao Zi for the night. Hearing they were searching for Qilin Mountain, Tao Zi shared a legend. Ten years ago, someone cast an illusion over Qilin Mountain, making it nearly impossible to see. After the mountain’s destruction, only the illusion remained. Liuniang had been repeatedly climbing the ruined mountain, planting trees to recreate the landscape.

However, Mu Sheng was preoccupied with a burning question: why did the Crescent Moon Sword, which was supposed to protect him, suddenly show hostility toward Liuniang? Liuniang calmly admitted that she once harbored a desire to kill Mu Sheng, but it was during the time the Enchantress was pregnant with him. The Enchantress, however, refused to give up her unborn child. Liuniang revealed that the red pearl wasn’t the Enchantress's tear but her blood.

As a being of pure origin, the Enchantress was born without tears. She then led Mu Sheng into a garden where he could see the Enchantress's memories, stating that memories couldn’t lie. Mu Sheng knew Liuniang didn’t care for him, and he suspected she had lured him here for more than just sharing these memories. Yet, she avoided answering and slowly enticed him further into the garden. Meanwhile, Ling Miaomiao discovered that Tao Zi had a golden pearl.

Tao Zi explained that a person’s last tear in life is golden, and when worn by someone they care about, it becomes a protective charm. Ling Miaomiao suddenly thought of the red pearl in Liuniang’s possession and worried that Liuniang might harm Mu Sheng. She begged Tao Zi to take her to check on him. Unexpectedly, Tao Zi used Liuniang’s blood to knock Ling Miaomiao unconscious and extracted one of her tears, transforming it into a pearl.

Mu Sheng finally chose to step into Liuniang’s memories. Liuniang, a demon, had been rescued by the Enchantress, and the two became like sisters, living peacefully on Qilin Mountain. Mortals worshipped the Enchantress as a divine figure, believing her blessings could grant eternal love. Though pure and kind-hearted, the Enchantress herself suffered from love. During a journey to the mortal world, she encountered the Marquess of Qingyi and later gave birth to Mu Sheng, a half-demon.

From the day she became pregnant, Liuniang feared that Mu Sheng and his father would bring calamity. Two demon hunters eventually arrived at the mountain. Recognizing Mu Huaijiang’s face in the memories, Mu Sheng suddenly realized how everything from the past twenty years was connected. On that fateful day, the Marquess confessed his true identity to the Enchantress and Liuniang, expressing his wish to abandon his title and live with the Enchantress on Qilin Mountain.

Upon hearing of the demon hunters, he went to negotiate but never returned. Though peace returned to the mountain, the Enchantress became despondent. Her grief worsened as her powers began to wane, seemingly drained by the child growing within her. On the day Mu Huaijiang arrived, Liuniang took the Enchantress away, but Qilin Mountain was soon swarmed by demon hunters and razed to the ground.

The Enchantress later learned of the Marquess’s marriage, which shattered her completely, causing her to shed tears of blood. As Mu Sheng grew, the Enchantress became weaker, yet she risked everything to keep her child. She left Liuniang and, after giving birth, lost all her powers. To raise Mu Sheng, she even resorted to singing for money. Liuniang couldn’t fathom how the Enchantress endured those days and grew to hate the Marquess—and Mu Sheng.

Mu Sheng’s memories, however, were of his mother abandoning him. Liuniang led him into the Nine-Curve Maze, claiming it would reveal everything he wanted to know. Mu Sheng, with tears in his eyes, stepped forward, and memories of his mother’s gentle singing flooded his mind. He recalled everything. Filled with rage toward the man who abandoned the Enchantress, Mu Sheng resolved to kill him, unaware that this decision had harmed his mother.

The demon hunters had sealed the Enchantress, but to protect her son, she cast the Forgetfulness Curse on Mu Sheng, tied his hair with a ribbon, and surrendered herself in his place. Learning the truth devastated Mu Sheng. Liuniang’s plan had succeeded; she had bound him with memories, making him unable to escape. She demanded he return the Enchantress’s demon core and accept death.

Meanwhile, in the village, the villagers, hearing that Mu Yao and Liu Fuyi weren’t yet married, took the opportunity to prepare a feast and send them into the bridal chamber. For the first time in years, Liu Fuyi smiled—a true smile. He finally felt relieved that no one had died because of him. Liu Fuyi remarked that his family would be enthusiastic, but a proper wedding would not be so simple.

Mu Yao didn’t mind; she loved the intimate atmosphere and even called him by his childhood nickname, "Maodan. " However, the villagers who had been celebrating outside suddenly turned silent, their expressions lifeless as they shuffled toward an unknown destination.
