Maya Posted September 21, 2020 Author Share Posted September 21, 2020 E P I S O D E 39 FENG JIU’S HEARTACHES After a short walk, Feng Jiu tells her grievances to Su Mo Ye that as Aranya, she is never loved by her family nor taken care of by her husband Xi Ze. Dong Hua listens to her pour her heart out, comparing herself as no much different to Aranya, since the one she has always loved was never there when she is in peril or hurt. Su Mo Ye asks Feng Jiu if she had thought of finding someone who will not let her suffer, nor put her in danger. She shakes her head no, she never had that chance. Spent with her crying, Dong Hua takes her into his arms when she fell asleep.

Maya Posted September 21, 2020 Author Share Posted September 21, 2020 E P I S O D E 40 ARANYA’S SISTERS During the meteors watching feast, Queen Qinghua asked Aranya why she doesn’t know where is Xi Ze. Changdi claims he is not there because she asked him for a favour. While still talking to the Queen, Xi Ze turns up to the party with Cha Cha, and belies Changdi’s assertions as to why he was late. Having lost their faces, the sisters of Aranya plot against her. They sent a letter to Su Mo Ye, pretending Aranya wants him to visit her in early morning. Someone snuck in Aranya’s room to pour acacia extracts in her jug, causing her to faint after having a drink. The King was summoned by Junou and Changdi, to see for himself who is sleeping with Aranya.

Maya Posted September 22, 2020 Author Share Posted September 22, 2020 (edited) E P I S O D E 41 THE END OF ARANYA Changdi was banished by the King, while Junou’s date of execution has been set. Su Mo Ye tells Feng Jiu that despite the enmity, she will have to do what Aranya did that time – save Junou, and Shen Ye – by sacrificing half of her blood to the white tiger. Feng Jiu does as what Su Mo Ye asked her to do, and collapses as her connection to Miao Luo is revealed. While Dong Hua and Miao Luo's projection were fighting, the primordial spirit of Feng Jiu returns to her real body. The Aranya of the dream realm vanishes.

Feng Jiu would also make Shen Ye admit his feelings to herself as Aranya, in keeping up of the events that happened during the real Aranya’s time. Shen Ye embraces Aranya as he tells her he loves her and to not leave anymore. By chance, Xi Ze (Dong Hua) and Cha Cha have seen them. Unable to bear the sight, Dong Hua walks away and stays outside for hours amidst the pounding rains. He returns late and lies down beside an already sleeping Feng Jiu. Waken up, she prepares him a hot bath to dispel the chilliness. He tugs Feng Jiu into the tub to join him while he soaks. Spoiler Di Jun, the perfect deity, is gone. Hahaha!
