Dream and Reality

Justice Is Served

Bai Qian disguises herself as a man named Si Yin to become High God Mo Yuan's disciple in Mount Kunlun. High Goddess Yao Guang, infatuated with Mo Yuan, kidnaps Si Yin because of his favoritism towards the disciple. Meanwhile, an unexpected visitor comes for Si Yin in Mount Kunlun.

The Favorite Disciple

Si Yin persuades Ling Yu to come with her to Qingqiu to join in the fun at a celebration. She takes Ling Yu there through a shortcut, but they are intercepted by the Ghost Tribe, and the Ghost Lord insists on bringing them back to the Great Ziming Palace.

Captured and Imprisoned

Qing Cang sends out an invitation for the Acknowledgment Ceremony of Ling Yu becoming his godson to humiliate Mount Kunlun. Si Yin, who has become friends with Li Jing, gets tricked into admitting that she is a woman to him. Mo Yuan then goes to the Ghost Realm to save Ling Yu and Si Yin but is encountered by the Ghost Tribe.

Confirmations

Li Jing goes to see Si Yin at Mount Kunlun only to be chased out by Die Feng. He escapes to a sealed cave where a phoenix is kept and gets injured. Si Yin tells him to stay in the cave while he recuperates and brings Xuan Nv to him, not knowing that Xuan Nv has tricks up her sleeves.

Resemblance

Xuan Nv goes back to Ghost Realm with Li Jing. Li Jing is almost killed by his father, but he is saved by Xuan Nv as she promises to help Ghost Tribe. Meanwhile, with Mo Yuan's injury not fully recovered, he brings Si Yin out to clear her mind from the incident. Right before the war is about to start, Xuan Nv is thrown back to Mount Kunlun and she continues her plot against Heavenly Tribe.

Imminence

Thanks to the formation map that Xuan Nv stole, the Ghost Tribe easily breaks the Heavenly Tribe's formation, and Ling Yu is killed. In order to break out of this predicament, someone else must sacrifice and lure Ghost Tribe's troops away to give them one last chance to survive. Meanwhile, the Ghost Lord wants Mo Yuan to die with the Donghuang Bell that Mo Yuan made himself.

Unpleasant Surprises

Devastated over the death of her master, Si Yin makes him drink the blood from her heart to protect his body from rotting. Upon hearing Die Feng tell her about the Ghost Tribe's sacred item, the Soul Jade, which can preserve the body of the dead, she sets out to see Li Jing in the Great Ziming Palace.

Preserving the Body

Consort Le Xu gives birth to a seemingly extraordinary baby, who is deemed the crown prince of the Heavenly Tribe. Bai Qian brings Mo Yuan’s body back to Qingqiu and keeps his body preserved there. 70,000 years later, the world has forgotten about Mo Yuan and Qing Cang. Bai Qian is betrothed to Prince Sang Ji, but she doesn’t want to marry him, and Sang Ji is in love with her maid, Shao Xin.

Return to Qingqiu

Heavenly Emperor's second son, Sang Jin, wants to break off his engagement with Bai Qian and marry her maid, Shao Xin, instead. Even though Bai Qian doesn't want to marry him either, this causes an issue on both sides. Lian Song then comes up with an idea to make sure that the intermarriage between the two sides can still push through.

Switching Partners

Sang Ji pleads with his father to let Shao Xin live. Upon Lian Song's suggestion, Ye Hua is bestowed a marriage with Bai Qian instead, while Sang Ji gets exiled and demoted. Bai Qian goes to seal Qing Cang away again only to be cursed to suffer in Mortal Realm without her memories.

Bestowed Marriage

Emperor Dong Hua goes to Mount Kunlun and finds Feng Jiu with a scroll that Bai Qian left behind, causing him to suspect Bai Qian’s connection to Mount Kunlun. Ye Hua goes to the Mortal Realm to fight the Golden Lion Beast. He succeeds but is stuck in snake form due to the beast’s power. Bai Qian finds him and brings him home to keep him as a pet, unaware that it’s actually her new fiancé.

Reluctant Pet

Feng Jiu wishes to repay the kindness of Emperor Dong Hua, so she leaves Qingqiu and pretends to be the fairy maid in Taichen Palace. As she becomes the fairy maid in Taichen Palace, being innocent, she is given a hard time by Zhi Yue and other fairy maids.

Repaying the Kindness

Ye Hua reveals his true form as a black dragon in front of everyone in order to save Bai Qian from a bully, but he flies away afterwards. He consults Lian Song on how to make her like him, and they decide to play the sympathy card. Since Bai Qian has no memories of herself and doesn't know her name, Ye Hua gives her the name Su Su.

The Sympathy Card

After Yan Zhi shows Li Jing Yuqing Kunlun Fan that she found at Mount Junji, he rushes out to find Si Yin, ignoring Xuan Nv. Meanwhile, Feng Jiu tries to repay Emperor Dong Hua's kindness. Su Su asks Ye Hua to give himself to her in exchange for sheltering him while he is injured.

Kindness and Devotion

The Heavenly Emperor marries Su Jin in a plan to appease the division leaders. Su Jin then asks His Majesty to arrange for Ye Hua to go back home with her to pay respects to her ancestors. When the Heavenly Emperor visits Ye Hua's palace to relay the orders, Ye Hua is forced to immediately return to Heavenly Realm, leaving Su Su confused and lost.

Unexpected Visit

Princess Yan Zhi helps Ling Yuan escape from the Arctic Prison. Meanwhile, Ye Hua and Lian Song accompany Su Jin to pay respects to her ancestors in order to persuade the division leaders to help them quell the Merfolk Tribe's rebellion. Ye Hua is planning to use this opportunity to fake his death and abandon everything to be with Su Su.

In the Name of Love

Ye Hua returns to Su Su after being away for a year and nine months. Upset over his absence, Su Su tells Ye Hua to take her along with him this time. Ye Hua obliges and brings her to the Immortal Realm, where they run into Die Feng and are subsequently brought to Crystal Palace in Chang Sea.

Hidden Identity

When Ye Hua finds out Su Su is pregnant, he realizes he must hurry with his plan to leave the Heavenly Realm. Ye Hua and Die Feng visit Chang Sea Water Lord and convince him to start a war with the Merfolk Tribe. After getting approval from His Majesty to use the Heavenly Palace's troops, Ye Hua sets off for the Chang Sea to action his plan to fake his death.

Preparing for Water

As Ye Hua is severely wounded by the Soul-Cutting Blade, Su Su breaks through his magical barrier. After the Heavenly Emperor finds out that Su Su bears Ye Hua's child, he locks her up in a deserted palace. Meanwhile, Xuan Nv is also pregnant with Li Jing's child, but she has a miscarriage. However, she wants to keep it a secret from Li Jing.

Aftermath

Worried about Su Su's situation in Heavenly Palace, Ye Hua returns there even though he hasn't fully recovered from his battle injuries. Ye Hua acts cold to Su Su in public in order to keep her safe and tells her to be careful in what she says and does. However, Su Jin sees through his facade and informs Heavenly Emperor about it.

Facades

Nai Nai is told to take Su Su's Yuqing Kunlun Fan to Su Su, but she drops the fan and causes Supreme Ling Bao's phoenix mount to go on a rampage, resulting in Feng Jiu getting injured. Su Su tries to stand up for herself and Nai Nai only to anger the Heavenly Emperor. Su Jin takes the opportunity to help the Heavenly Emperor get rid of Su Su in exchange for being Ye Hua's second consort.

Paving the Way

After slipping up again, Ye Hua is given one last chance to redeem himself by taking out the rebellion in the North Wilderness, forcing him to leave Su Su alone again. Su Jin purposely uses the copper mirror to mislead Su Su into thinking that Ye Hua loves Su Jin and only sees Su Su as a replacement. This causes a wedge in their relationship, and Su Su becomes cold towards Ye Hua.

Last Chance at Redemption

Su Jin pretends that Su Su pushed her down Zhuxian Podium and caused her to lose her eyes. Su Su's life is in danger as everyone thinks she is guilty and wants to punish her to get justice for Su Jin. Ye Hua thinks of a fair punishment that doesn't involve killing Su Su, and he realizes how wrong he was in thinking that the Heavenly Emperor would spare her life.

Conspiracy

Ye Hua receives the Crown Prince's Seal and is due to go through his trials of strikes of fire and thunder. Hearing the thunder strike, Su Su panics and loses consciousness. Meanwhile, Xuan Nv goes into premature labor in Ghost Realm.

The Heaven’s Will

After Su Su gives birth to a baby boy, Ye Hua tells her about their upcoming wedding, but Su Su doesn't feel excited about it. Later on, Su Su asks Nai Nai to take her out to Zhuxian Podium as she tries to familiarize herself with the path there. Meanwhile, Feng Jiu returns to Qingqiu after Si Ming relays Emperor Dong Hua's message to her.

Parting Ways

Despite Ye Hua's dissuasion, Su Su jumps off Zhuxian Podium to return to the Mortal Realm, which leads to Ye Hua following in her footsteps. Ye Hua doesn't die from the jump, but his Primordial Spirit is severely injured, while Su Su sustains injuries but retrieves her memory. With High Immortal Zhe Yan's help, Ye Hua's Primordial Spirit is saved, but he ends up in a coma.

Bitter Parting

Both Bai Qian and Ye Hua are devastated after what happened, and as Bai Qian requests to take a potion to forget her heartbreak, Ye Hua refuses to take the one offered to him. Instead, he wants to find Si Yin, hoping that he'll know a way to bring Su Su back to life. Meanwhile, Feng Jiu is also heartbroken because of Emperor Dong Hua, while Su Jin is now Ye Hua's secondary consort.

Heartbreaks

Su Jin tells Ye Hua the way to recreate Su Su's blood and bones using the Soul-Gathering Lamp with the condition of letting her enter Xiwu Palace. The lamp burns for 300 years before Feng Jiu steals it to help Bai Qian wake Mo Yuan, not knowing of the lamp's purpose. While Li is in the jungle, a monster attacks him and he is saved by someone.

Lights Out

Ye Hua gets into a fight with Li when Li tells him that Princess Miao Qing is trying to take over his mother's place. Before Bai Qian goes to the East Sea Water Lord's banquet, she spends the night at Peach Blossoms Forest. Meanwhile, Ye Hua is also at the East Sea with Li and decides to drop by unannounced at Peach Blossoms Forest.

Debt and Favor

Bai Qian sees Ye Hua in Peach Blossoms Forest while she is drunk and mistakes it for a dream. She also accidentally meets Li and Ye Hua at the East Sea Water Lord's banquet, and Li calls her Mother. Her mannerisms and the scar on her wrist make Ye Hua suspect that she is Su Su, and he is wondering if she has already forgotten about him or if it is merely an act.

Fateful Encounters

Ye Hua burns Bai Qian's belongings and believes that she is the mortal Su Su. In the Mortal Realm, Feng Jiu finally meets Emperor Dong Hua. She enters his dream to find out his wish so that she can repay her debt by fulfilling it.

The Same Person

Ye Hua insists on staying in Fox Cave with Bai Qian to confirm whether she is Su Su or not. Su Jin is upset upon hearing that and sends her maid to give Bai Qian a warning. When her maid returns with words of humiliation directed towards her, she is infuriated and becomes desperate to bring Ye Hua back to the palace.

Moving into Fox Cave

Ye Hua spends more time with Bai Qian and Li in Qingqiu, and he tells Lian Song that he plans to start over with Bai Qian now that she has forgotten about him. Yuan Zhen, the eldest son of the North Sea Water Lord, goes to the Heavenly Palace for the first time. But little does he know that calamity will fall upon him soon because of Su Jin's evil scheme.

Start Over

Shao Xin asks Qian Qian to help her son, Yuan Zhen, who has been reincarnated in the Mortal Realm as a punishment. Qian Qian eventually agrees to help change the fate of Yuan Zhen on behalf of Shao Xin. When Qian Qian is in the Mortal Realm, Xuan Nv disguises as Qian Qian and visits the Fox Cave to get her evil plot done.

Crisis

Ye Hua informs Bai Qian that Emperor Dong Hua is Yuan Zhen's father in his trial in the Mortal Realm. She comes up with a way to help Yuan Zhen with his trial with Sang Ji's help. During the process, Miao Qing pushes Bai Qian down the river, but Ye Hua manages to save her. Meanwhile, Xuan Nv is cooking up an evil plan to revive her son.

Plans

As Feng Jiu's fate intertwines with Emperor Dong Hua's mortal identity, she has to complete his love trial for him. Meanwhile, Bai Qian charges to Great Ziming Palace in a rage to confront Xuan Nv. Bai Qian takes back the face she had given Xuan Nv years ago.

Intertwining Fate

Li Jing locks Xuan Nv up in the Arctic Prison to wait for execution, but she surprisingly sees the supposedly dead Li Yuan chained up inside as well. After finding out about Bai Qian and Mo Yuan’s close relationship, Ye Hua starts to wonder whether Bai Qian is so nice to him because he and Mo Yuan look exactly the same. Almost having lost Bai Qian again, his desperation pushes him to become more vocal about his love for her.

Love Confession

Li Yuan helps Xuan Nv escape from the Ghost Realm and tells her to go to the Mortal Realm to find Yan Zhi. Si Ming visits Feng Jiu in the Mortal Realm and tells her that it's time to move forward to the next part of the story the way Emperor Dong Hua wanted. Bai Qian, who has had some of her memories erased, thinks she's going to Heavenly Palace for the first time when someone she least expects shows up at her doorstep.

It’s Time

Zhe Yan figures out a way to heal Die Yong, and it's connected to Mo Yuan. Ye Hua brings Bai Qian to Heavenly Palace to soak in Wangtian Spring, which can help her recuperate from her injuries. The place where Su Su used to stay gives her an uneasy feeling, while Nai Nai thinks that Su Su has returned due to the Soul Gathering Lamp. Meanwhile, Su Jin incites Miao Qing to add a love potion into a soup to make Ye Hua sleep with her.

Back to Heavenly Palace

After Ye Hua expresses his sadness to Bai Qian for not having him in her heart, she starts to ponder over it. Instructed to frame the Noble Consort to proceed with the love tribulation for Emperor Dong Hua, Feng Jiu decides to go against it and do it her way. Meanwhile, Xuan Nv escapes from the Ghost Realm to look for Yan Zhi.

Two Years

Bai Qian lets Li drink too much wine, causing him to fall into a deep sleep, and Ye Hua is furious when he finds out. In the Mortal Realm, Feng Jiu is hit by an arrow when she and Emperor Dong Hua are attacked by assassins. They run into Yan Zhi, who brings them home.

Assassination

Zhe Yan discovers something is amiss with the eldest son of the West Sea Water Lord. He rushes to tell Bai Qian about it, but Bai Zhen advises him to speak to Ye Hua first. Meanwhile, Su Jin tries to pull another stunt to ruin Ye Hua and Bai Qian's relationship, but little does she know that Bai Qian isn't someone to mess with.

Dilemma

Emperor Dong Hua's love tribulation ends in an unexpected way because of his love for Lady Chen. Zhe Yan brings Bai Qian as his Heavenly Envoy to the West Sea to find Mo Yuan's Primordial Spirit in Die Yong's body. Ye Hua, who knows about her plan, decides to give the Soul-Gathering Lamp to her as he comes to the West Sea looking for her. However, it results in Bai Qian telling him to cut their wedding oath for her to bring back Mo Yuan.

Hope and Sorrow

After the incident with Ye Hua, Bai Qian tries to figure out her feeling towards him by discussing with Bai Zhen. Meanwhile, Ye Hua already plans to get the Divine Fungal Grass for Bai Qian and gives her the Soul-Gathering Lamp. Amidst all, Mo Yuan's disciples return to Mount Kunlun because of the presence of dragon energy. The result from Emperor Dong Hua's love trial does not just shorten Yuan Zhen's trial but also the emperor's power.

Feelings

Yan Zhi leads Zi Lan and Xuan Nv to search for the Fungal Divine Grass, but they provoke the Four Great Beasts. Li Jing comes in time to her rescue, as well as Ye Hua, who is also in need of the Divine Fungal Grass. After the battle, Ye Hua retreats to Peach Blossom Forest.

Search for the Divine Fungal Grass

Qingqiu announces Princess Feng Jiu's coming of age to find her a suitable suitor so that she forgets about her relationship with Emperor Dong Hua. After three days, Ye Hua wakes up with a new arm at Peach Blossom Forest. He secretly gives Zhe Yan the medicinal pill infused with the Divine Fungal Grass, so Bai Qian does not have to use her cultivation to revive Mo Yuan.

Last Stages

Bai Qian uses the Soul-Tracking Spell to check on Mo Yuan's primordial spirit only to learn there's a powerful heavenly aura guarding it. Knowing something isn't right, Bai Qian questions Zhe Yan and he finally admits that Ye Hua is the one who makes the medicinal pill. Meanwhile, Cheng Yu has a worried look on her face soon after overhearing the conversation between Emperor Dong Hua and Supreme Ling Bao.

The Truth

Yan Zhi searches for Zi Lan in Mount Kunlun to borrow the alchemy furnace to make a pill for Li Jing's child. Zi Lan swears to guard Wuwang Sea after Mo Yuan has returned to atone for his sin. Bai Qian finally agrees to marry Ye Hua, which makes him overjoyed. However, when a palace maid sees Bai Qian adding stuff to Ye Hua's tea, Su Jin uses it to plant doubts in Consort Le Xu's mind against Bai Qian.

Doubts

Before Bai Qian and Ye Hua get married, Ye Hua has to go through a trial in the Mortal Realm for killing the Four Great Beasts. As Ye Hua is leaving, Mo Yuan's primordial spirit vanishes from Die Yong's body, and the bell rings signalling his return.

The Ringing Bell

Convinced that Emperor Dong Hua will die soon, Feng Jiu insists on staying with him despite his constant rejection and her father’s disapproval. Mo Yuan finally returns to Mount Kunlun, and Bai Qian reveals her identity to all the disciples. However, after returning, Mo Yuan finds himself confused about his feelings for Bai Qian. Meanwhile, Li Jing makes preparations to fight his father once he breaks out of the Donghuang Bell.

Mo Yuan’s Big Return

The High God Mo Yuan's return restores Mount Kunlun to its former glory. While everyone is thrilled with the news, Li Jing seems to be overwrought as he knows his father is about to break out of the bell soon. For Bai Qian's sake, he chooses to withhold the information and intends to take care of the matter on his own.

Beneath Still Waters

Back in the Fox Cave, Si Ming brings Feng Jiu the history scroll about Emperor Dong Hua. She later finds out that he has erased his name on the Rock of Three Lifetimes and fixes the love affairs of the world. Refusing to believe it, she goes to see him at the Nine Heavens.

Inevitable Fate of Love

Su Jin creates a doll that looks like Su Su and sends her to the Mortal Realm. When Bai Qian goes to check on Ye Hua, she sees the doll accompanying him. As a result of that encounter, she starts to overthink if Ye Hua really loves her or if is she just a substitute for Su Su.

The Doll

Upset over Ye Hua's infatuation with Su Su, Bai Qian gets herself drunk and accidentally breaks the Soul-Gathering Lamp. The memories from when she was Su Su returns to her. To seek redemption for her suffering from 70,000 years ago from Su Jin, she barges into Xiwu Palace and gouges out her eyes.

Two Sides to a Story

Ye Hua returns to Heavenly Palace and calls for Sang Ji and Yuan Zhen in order to expose Su Jin and all of her crimes. Ye Hua goes to Qingqiu to see Bai Qian, but she refuses to see him and insists on breaking their engagement. Li Jing summons his father’s primordial spirit to put an end to him and bring peace to the Ghost Realm once and for all.

After Ye Hua's death, the Heavenly Tribe comes to collect his body from Fox Cave to bury it in the Wuwang Sea. As Bai Qian is engulfed in sadness with his death and unable to keep his body, she later travels with Bai Zhen around the world. Even though Bai Qian's marriage didn't happen, Feng Jiu still succeeded the throne as the Empress of Qingqiu.

Bai Qian is sightseeing the Mortal Realm when she runs into Li while he is on his way to the Wuwang Sea. Bai Qian tags along and visits Ye Hua for the first time in three years. As Bai Qian returns to the Mortal Realm, she comes across Ye Hua's cousin, and she is surprised by a piece of shocking news about her beloved fiancé.

The Return

Three hundred years ago, Bai Qian stood on the Zhu Xian Terrace, turned around and jumped off without regret. Ye Hua stood by the bronze mirror to witness with his own eyes her death. Three hundred years later, in the East Sea Dragon Palace, the two meet unexpectedly. Another lifetime another world, after suffering betrayal Bai Qian no longer feels anything, yet she can't seem to comprehend Ye Hua's actions. Three lives three worlds, her and him, are they fated to love again?
