Im going to spoil it for impatient people who havent read the novel
Spoiler!
After the war between Xian le and Yong an ,which Xian le lost because of human face disease, the people ruling Yong an where now also in charge of the remaining people of Xian le. The people of Yong an ruthlessly mistreated the people of Xian le. However, qianqu's parents, who were the king and queen, decided to treat the people of Xian let nicely and even became encountered with the last human and living royal family member of Xian le , a prince. Now Qi rong, xie Lians cousin is also around at that time (he could be a ghost or he could be human I'm not sure). Qi rong and the prince of Xian le start planning on how to take over Yong an again. Little do they know, xie Lian is still around but as a street performer and is still recovering (this is before his second ascension). The people that kidnap qiangiu are people from Xian le and had been organised to kidnap qiangiu by qi rong and the prince. Xie Lian stopped them and continued to protect qiangiu whilst making sure to keep the people of Xian le safe (he's making sure no one finds out about what Qi rong has been planning to keep the people safe). Qianqiu is actually friends with the prince of Xian le. People think that the prince has a terminal illness but it was really xie Lian killing him by vibrating his organs with his sword. Xie Lian ended up killing the prince but that is after the banquet. The people of Xian le had killed everyone at the banquet but xie Lian got there whilst the prince (I think) was killing the king. Xie Lian killed the prince and then, after finding out the king was going to kill the people of Xian le because of the betrayal, he killed the king. Later qianqiu saw him killing the king and buried him underground for 100 years. Xie Lian decided to take the blame instead of the people on Xian le (you're welcome)
