Love in Pavilion Episode 30

Betrayal

JiuHuo died heroically. This is the first time I really respected the strength of his character. I am somewhat surprised that black fox told him so plainly what her intentions were. She kept the cruel part of JiaLan that preserved things by killing them in their most beautiful moment. She was looking to make a fine demon core for Jin RenFeng to make a sword with. That forge really needs destroyed. I am not familiar with the written story but I hope there is an arc where this happens. She really is hellbent on eradicating love and light. She has found the most vile of the noble class to be her willing servants. JiuHuo wasn’t as evil as these. The humans are more than willing to condemn their own children.😝 I do not think HongYe was expecting JiuHuo to give him his blessing to kill black fox. What they have learned from Tush is that to have any hope of defeating her they will be on separate sides of the boundary. Ironically the boundary their elders forged to create her. JiaLan in all her cruelty would have been minimized had it been tempered with loving JiuHuo. They might have been able to find a place where celestial demons could live in peace away from the humans. But once that was interfered with, hatred became a new feeding source to create the black fox. And now that poor leech demon whose only mistake was loving a domineering man, got to feel the power of his domineering against her. The ultimate betrayal of both of these lovers, while killing off the one they used, will also result in their own ultimate downfalls. Collateral damage will be very high and the cost of beautiful souls to counter will be beyond measure to number. This story really does epitomize the shortsightedness of selfish ego and lust for power. Even the celestial demon recognized that immortality is nothing when the one you love is not there with you. That a demon understood love better than humans only exemplifies how far the nobles had willingly fallen. I am hoping this writer at some point finds a generation that is allowed to enjoy love and light and dares write a tale about them. Waiting so see what remnant is saved to make this story happen.
