Sword and Beloved Episode 7

Antidote

The disciple only came with intel long known. I expected more from her.😝She has a good heart but annoys more than helps. Qingtong drinks the remaining poison and manages to finally get the antidote from Madam Yin. Instead of using the antidote she gives half of her life to her brother who is now in human form. Madam Yin has a blood grudge because she was led to believe her love’s essence was spared to reform. This turned out to be a lie, but I do not know the backstory to know who betrayed the promise to her. She laments over her loss and wants HongYe to know the same pain. She is totally clueless since he has lived with that pain and more for the last 20 years. She thinks he will mourn his son. Not compared to HuaiZhu. FuGui has figured it all out and goes to spider cave and even in a near death state can beat up all the spiders. He frees the spiders and runs off the Master who vows to return to finish the job. Jingting is pouting over his loss of cultivation but thanks to a disciple we find out some of his backstory. He is very like Jin Ren Feng.😝😝His goal is power and he will sacrifice anything for it. This explains his apathy towards his child but makes him even more unforgivable. He wants to get the sword made of dragon spine which is why he opted to turn himself over to guard the sword tomb. This will give him two of the three things he needs for true dragon power. He has a scale which is why his arm is the way it is. The disciple tries to help FuGui by destroying the antidote.😝She is jealous and like Qingtong didn’t bother to discuss things with FuGui to find out if there was any chance it was the antidote. Fortunately FuGui shows up in time to save the day. The disciple isn’t happy and threatens to tattletale to master. She hasn’t done it yet but is waiting to decide. FuGui asks her directly why she did not talk to him about her situation with spider cave master. She tells him her brother would have been killed if she told and yet she still poisoned him. 😝🙄 Qingtong believes she has saved both her brother and FuGui so she happily hands him the bottle of antidote and collapses to die. FuGui gives her the antidote and calls for RuMu. He is mocked for saving the spider when only five days left til poison kills him. FuGui has determined that now is the best time to remove poison but he needs assistance. This is where RuMu comes in to close off his meridians so the poison can be purged from his system. I am hoping they think to make more antidote using the poison. The black fox notices the soldier blade has warmed to the spider demon. She sees this as time to exploit the weakness. She and HongYe both forget how powerful love is. This episode ends on a note of hope for the future in spite of the signs indicating otherwise.
