In a quiet country cottage that no one pays attention to.
Mi Shan got up early, cooked herself some noodles, and then went out to do laundry.
On the way, I met Sister Xue and Qiao Yunsheng, who had just returned from chopping wood. I greeted them and we agreed to have lunch together.
They live here, in a place reminiscent of the Peach Blossom Spring, with only a few simple households and no complicated neighborly relations. Nestled against the mountains and beside the water, they lead an idyllic life, forgetting the troubles of the world.
Mi Shan felt very peaceful every day, and had never felt so free as she did now.
Without the Gu worms that shared his thoughts, he simply stopped thinking about anything.
Only her mother, who knew she was still alive, would occasionally visit her; everyone else thought she was dead.
Little did they know.
In the deposed empress's secret chamber, amidst the pile of charred bones reduced to ashes, she found the final ingredient for "resurrection"—relics.
It seems that Tongji always carried this relic with him.
Like Li Shengyuan, he had the late emperor to cultivate secret techniques with him, and his body was protected by protective qi. However, because the late emperor had passed away many years ago, he could not improve his cultivation and maintain his youth with him all the time. Therefore, he only looked a little younger than others.
This is also why he isn't as prominent.
That day, if it hadn't happened to be a full moon night, his protective aura would have disappeared, and he would have aged considerably and lost the power to protect himself.
They were easily defeated.
And it was burned to ashes by the flames in the mechanism.
Finally, through a series of coincidences, it was completely wiped out.
That's why Tongji cried out in despair, "Don't use fire..." It seems that if he had used other methods, he might have had a chance to heal and survive after the full moon the next day and the sky brightened.
Such courtly sorcery finally disappeared completely after the deaths of Li Shengyuan and Li Huaiyan.
When Mi Shan obtained the relic, he immediately refined it successfully at the fastest speed.
She had planned everything, and before her mother left, she handed her the "Turtle Breathing Pill".
Then, he committed suicide.
Galo Lou naturally understood the effects of the Turtle Breath Pill and knew that her death was also a carefully planned scheme.
She entrusted such an important thing to her because she trusted her mother completely; this is the bond between mother and daughter, blood mingling as one.
Afterwards, Jialuo Lou took her body away from the secret passage, fed her a turtle-breathing pill, and waited for her to revive.
Mi Shan then found a beautiful place with clear waters and lush mountains and started a new life with Sister Xue.
All the past events should be treated as a dream.
Just forget about it.
I heard.
After Xie Ling killed the emperor, he threw him into a cauldron and burned him for forty-nine days until the next full moon night, when the sinful Li Shengyuan was finally killed.
I heard that Mother retrieved the Demon Dragon, destroyed the secret passage, returned to the Western Regions, and resumed her duties as a goddess.
Xie Ling, however, remained a wanderer, cherishing in his heart the memory of the woman who had left a profound mark on his life.

Extra 1 Tower Keeper
fox
Bai Lingyu took the demon core and returned to the snowy mountains of the North.
He used up all his cultivation to revive his clansmen, but he himself had to start all over again, turning back into a little fox. Due to the depletion of his spiritual power, his body gradually became transparent.
The tribespeople awoke in surprise from their frozen state, wondering why everything in the world had changed.
The little fox stood right next to them, yet they couldn't sense it.
Helpless, Bai Lingyu could only flick her tail and leave.
I plan to find a secluded corner where no one knows me, and silently await my death.
Her long-held wish has been fulfilled.
I thought I would have no more regrets.
But why, when I close my eyes, do I still think of Mi Shan, Xie Ling, the friendship I shared with them, and—Kong Wang?
Thinking of this, Bai Lingyu suddenly felt wide awake.
She opened her eyes and decided to use the last of her life to go to Yunyin Temple to see him one last time.
Regardless of whether he can see himself or not.
It would be enough for her to catch a glimpse of him from afar—that gentle, kind, clean-cut man with a faint smile on his lips, who gave off a feeling as warm as the morning sun.
When Bai Lingyu finally arrived after overcoming numerous hardships, her body had become completely transparent.
She leaped into the tower of Yunyin Temple, and with the gait of a fox, swaying her fluffy white tail, she gracefully approached him.
The sound of the wooden fish echoed in the empty hall.
Suddenly, the sound of the wooden fish in Kong Wang's hand stopped.
He opened his eyes and lowered his eyelids.
Looking diagonally downwards.
It seemed to sense her arrival.
The little fox was startled and paused for a moment. The next second, Kong Wang revealed a warm smile that seemed to break through the clouds, reached out and patted its head: "Where did this little fox come from? So cute."
Bai Lingyu: "You, you can see me?"
“Yes. Even though you are only a spirit now, I can still see you.” Kong Wang gazed at her quietly.
The little fox wagged its tail: "This is amazing!"
Moreover, the temple was filled with the fragrance of incense, and it jumped into the Buddha's palm, feeling the fragrance coming from all around, and felt as if it were floating on air.
"Staying here seems to help me recover my spiritual body; maybe I can even cultivate into a fox spirit."
"This fox spirit has made up her mind. I will not leave from now on. I will stay here and devote myself to cultivation. Monk, from now on, you will guard the tower, and I will guard you. We will stay here together until we grow old and leave this world." She announced proudly.
Kong Wang narrowed her eyes and smiled gently: "Okay."
Yu Yu, you said it yourself.
