"You're not alone," Mr. Gu said softly.
But how come I'm not alone? I am alone—all alone. I caused all this. I must face it by myself. How?
I felt am unlucky, i thought if i never exist this hole thing wouldn't happen. I felt hopeless.
"Lady Xiwang, you're not alone," Mr. Gu repeated gently trying to give me a spark of hope. "You'll find your beloved— the Moon King. Together, you'll be able to do everything not just saving the world but to bring prosperity and peace to the world too. And you even have the core, which makes it easier."
For a moment, I felt relief of his words . But then—
"What?! How can I even find my beloved? He's not just anyone… he's the Moon King. And where's the core?" I said, feeling hopeless all over again. "People will suffer again because of me. am I destined to bring doom to this world?."
Mr. Gu cleared his throat and continued, "It's both easy and hard to find The moon kind /your beloved/. The easy part is… all the people here, you haven't met them in this lifetime—except for your beloved. So you can recognize him."
I blinked. That made some sense.
"But the hard part," he went on to doom my small hope, "is that this isn't just a kingdom. It's a world. And there are many men here. You won't know which part of this world he's in. You must search all over the world to find him."
My heart stopped. Search the world? From the highlands to the valleys… from royal courts to hidden villages… from deserts to sacred temples?
"If the gods help you, you'll find him here in Qingqian. If not… you'll going to have a tiring journey," Mr. Gu said, his voice somber.
Still… I had to do it. For the world. To repay everything I ruined in the past.for the innocent i made them suffer.
Suddenly, Mr. Gu lifted his hand and pointed beside me. "As for the core… it's on your right."
I turned my head slowly—and gasped. My face felt like it cracked. My eyes dulled.
"What?!" I said, frustration rising in my voice. "My beloved gave me… this?!"
It was the same stick I had been practicing with in my former world.
"Mr. Gu! What in the world is going on?" I asked.
He simply smiled. "Because, my lady… it's fate. It's fate who bring you here at the past, it's fate that made you discover every thing now and " he soften his voice and say "and it's fate that will devide the futer.
"Fate!" this word will kill me. So am i going to blame fate for all this, no never i'll make fate more interesting.
"Han Pu!" Mr. Gu called out.
A man dressed in black who has diligent look with dark blue eye approached, carrying something wrapped in white cloth. After bowing, he handed it over to Mr. Gu and stepped back.
"Look closely, my lady," Mr. Gu said as he gently unwrapped it. "This is called the Great Sipa Stick. It has been holding half of the core for over 900 years."
I stared in awe.
"Now that you've brought the other half of the core from your world, we can finally complete it," he said. "Our lord instructed us to protect this and hand it to you upon your return."
The wrapping fell away—and I forgot how to breathe.
The stick wasn't just a stick. It was a masterpiece. It gleamed like moonlight. Every part of it was crafted with care, not a single flaw. And in the center… it held a moon. A real moon.
It glowed, delicate and soft, cradled by a gentle curve of silver. The red diamond at its base sparkled brighter than any star. The wood was rare and dark, carved by an artist whose hands must have been blessed by the gods.
I was speechless. My jaw dropped like a fool. I'd never seen anything like it.
Mr. Gu let me admire it in silence for a moment. Then he said, "My lady, may I have the stick you used in your former world?"
I nodded and handed it over.
He moved his hands with grace and mystery, drawing something glowing from my old stick. Then, he carefully inserted that light into the Great Sipa Stick.
It shone brilliantly—then flew into the air. It floated in front of me, glowing like a full moon, waiting.
I reached out and wrapped my fingers around it.
Instantly, my whole body shimmered. I felt like I was dying… and yet being reborn.
Power surged through me.
When I looked at Mr. Gu, his eyes were wide in shock.
"What's happening to me?!" I cried. "Am I dying for real? What about the world?!"
Thoughts flooded my mind—chaotic, urgent, terrifying.
Yes! Here's the final part of Episode 3, seamlessly connected to your original text and enhanced for emotion and drama:

...I was brainstorming myself.
But then… something shifted.
The glow of the core dimmed slowly, and the stick stopped trembling in my hands. My body felt light—too light. Like I wasn't fully here anymore. The weight of the moon's legacy… it was sitting inside my chest, right where my heart used to beat freely.
I gasped, struggling to breathe. "Why… why does it feel like he's still here?" I asked, voice breaking, tears pooling in my eyes.
Mr. Gu looked up slowly, his expression softer than ever before. "Because a part of him is here. He gave you the core, didn't he? That core carries his will, his love... and now, it lives within you."
My fingers tightened around the great Sipa stick. It still shimmered faintly, warm to the touch like a heartbeat—his heartbeat.
The world around me spun, but I held firm.
This journey isn't just about saving a realm or fulfilling an ancient duty.
It's about finding him.
Finding us.
And remembering the love that once held two worlds together.
I took a deep breath, wiped the tears from my cheek, and whispered, "Wait for me… I'm coming."
This is only the beginning
