Yes SJ took the poison.

WuFeng knows about the Infinite Heat. That is the ultimate mission of all of them. Because WuFeng came out of Gong men. It has something to do with the Feng/Wind elder. If you know some basic Chinese you can see the writer likes to use homonyms. WuFeng is a homonym for no wind.

Yeah the body suggests YQ made it out but died. She didn’t get her antidote bc she fell for her target. But now we know the Fortnight Fliess couldn’t have killed her. So maybe Yasi killed her. Or she is still alive and YWS volunteered to complete her mission in exchange for her life. We will soon see bc if YQ is dead YWS has no reason to help WuFeng anymore.

Yeah I think she turns on WuFeng too. The only thing in her way potentially could be Yun Que is not dead, that Yasi is holding her hostage. Hopefully she doesn’t think Elder Yue is a serial killer that collects tokens of his kills.

It seems they are like shareholders in the Gong family business. And like a modern board of directors they sit on top to make sure it’s run properly according to the company charter. So the SW has to be accountable to them.

Since she knows the Fortnight Flies are a lie and Ziyu loves her, she effectively has her freedom. She can choose to stay in Gong men and help them take down WuFeng. Or just leave, walk away from everything. So if she keeps working for WuFeng then maybe there is something else going on with her. Like maybe Yun Que’s freedom is at stake also. Or worse, she thinks Elder Yue killed Yun Que? Looks like Yun Que is a spy who fell in love with her target.

So at this point we are at the reveal point for YWS:

It is implied GSJ’s assistant in the second realm was Yun Que. idk how she managed that but that was clearly implied. So GSJ like ZY also poisoned himself to make sure he understood the poison. But GSJ did not test potential antidotes on himself, he used a medical mule. Which is an option Yue also offered to Ziyu but Ziyu tested them on himself. Shows GSJ is not a bad person as @sakis says below but he is not as good a person as Ziyu either.

Yeah and I think we saw some of the Wang spies - at least 2 of them.

Its a good question - I don’t know. Maybe YQ managed fo be a jade guardian.

Could be. I think we will see the reason tonight

Yes lets wait and see... so many possibilities is what makes this fun.😃

Me too. He is the one I like the most among all the dudes. But I have a terrible bad habit of falling for villains so...

Idk I haven't spent much time thinking about Huanyi bc there aren't enough clues. People seeing him in a trailer is not a good clue and there are no other good clues or context around it. Maybe that was a flashback explaining what happened the night he died. . Wuji could be helping him bc he figured out long ago she is Wuming but she fell in love with his dad and was harmless/switched sides? So many possibilities. I find it easier to follow clues as they are revealed and analyse them in better context.

That was my thinking as well until I saw tonight's flashback. Idk honestly what happened but after tonight I think there is another possibility.

Yes that is the other strong possibility. The only reason why I am thinking maybe she is alive is bc I think otherwise ZY would have melted YWS a lot more than he has already. She must be motivated by something more than freedom and she seems very conflicted. It makes more sense if her sister is effectively a hostage, that she is not just thinking about herself. And of course Elder Yue's sadness moved me and I want to believe YQ is alive and I get the feeling he is wondering about her bc he thinks she left Gong men alive.

It's just a guess from Yue's expression and how he hesitates when he discusses the assistant. Whom he also said is not Jin Yi, SJ's green jade guard. It's also the only plausible way he met her considering he is confined to the back mountain.

Yes I saw that but since it's covered, it's hard to know what lies beneath. Huanyi is alive is widely speculated. Though I don't watch trailers, all I have to say is that maybe it's a typical trailer misdirect and maybe he is NOT a bad guy as everyone has been led to think.

There is a flashback showing YQ suffering the impact of the Fortnight Flies. So I think she got out and returned to Wufeng. But no info, no antidote. This must have made YWS desperate to save her. So she may have asked Yasi to give her sister the antidote and she agreed to continue her mission. Elder Yue is loyal to Gong men so he gave YQ nothing but helped her get out. He went to visit Zheng Nanyi to try to find out if YQ is ok. An assassin spy that has been caught has no other useful value to him other than information about YQ.
