4/10 - Finally this plot arc is over.

Finally this plot arc of mortal life torture for Bai Qian is over. It went exactly like I thought. Down into that black hole and out finally Bai Qian! Though my heart breaks as she thinks about the whole experience. Honestly I don't blame her for wanting to forget the whole thing. Though my blood thirsty side wants blood! Vengeance! Some righteous indignation and consequences for what happened to her. But I get it.

Though maybe I'm jumping the gun. Maybe the writer will come up new and fun ways to torture the lead some more. *sighs*

Bai Qian and Ye Hua's baby is pretty darn cute! It's heart breaking she never touched her son, but I get it with her plans of jumping into that hole. She figured she'd die or some grain of truth would send her elsewhere. The other birth was heart breaking as well. I truly felt for Li Jing.

This episode ran a bit smoother than the last and I actually only skipped a few part. Gosh, I can't stand Su Jin anymore. Ugh. This drama is filled with really evil women!

At times this episode was beautiful and breath taking. Then it would drag on or emphasis a little too long on horrible characters and flashbacks. I'm looking forward to moving on from this arc. I truly am.

episode 26 spoilers ahead

This episode is fairly straightforward as it sees the end of several plots (Su Su) and the beginning of others.

1.Su Su leaps to her death from the terrace. Ye Hua tries to catch her, and unable to, follows her in one of the most beautifully executed scenes in the series (especially since she is wearing white, he is wearing black; this can draw so many parallels. yin, yang, two halves of one whole. Take your pick. In the novel, this I believe is where the novel starts?)

2.Su Su lands in the 10000 mile peach blossom, only the ghost kings seal is gone, meaning she is yet again a goddess.

3.DH speaks with Si Ming and explains that after he enters seclusion (he lost a lot of power saving FJ's life and killing the guardian of the pagoda). He plans on entering the mortal realm in order to give FJ exactly what she wants: a marriage. Si Ming can do this as he writes the fates for the mortals. If the emperor asks, DH says to tell him that he is undergoing trials. (I 100% think this is as much for himself as it is FJ; he totally wants her)

4.The celestial emperor uses his power to revive a near-dead YH. The uncles/princes knock the emperor unconscious so he doesn't kill himself trying to save YH and leave to get a special grass. They fail (and return very beat up and bleeding). However Zheyan, the phoenix, arrives and offers his assistance. After YH is stable, Si Jin fetches a special treasure, that we learn about only now (of course). It just so happens that this lamp, the lamp her mother was buried with; this lamp can gather a persons soul....how convenient :D
