What an ending to season 1. I'm so glad that I guessed wrong and their teacher is fine. The rest of the series cannot come soon enough! This is probably one of the best GL manhua (Chinese) I've read, with an engaging story and beautiful art.
It was already clear from an earlier flashback that Weixi is the current emperor's daughter, but this chapter (24.2) just dropped the bomb that her ability to see the future is actually memories of past lives. How is this possible? Her premonitions include knowing the exact words to tell the brothel Madame to let Suyou leave, that the weaving factory might be set on fire, and living with general Suyou as her wife defending the imperial city. All of these things directly relevant to the future and not something that could have vaguely happened in the past. So how is it possible that these are memories from past lives?
I think it's more like rewinding time so certain events will still happen in the same order.
It's in a similar vain to "All you need is kill"/ Edge of tomorrow.

The scene with General Su You is a flash forward. It's not part of a past life.
For the other events, she lived through them before to figured out what she needed to know or do to cause the outcome she wanted so that in her next life she could make it happen more easily. But sometimes things happen that she hasn't experienced before (like when Su You told the story about the Huahui) so she doesn't know how these things will affect the future.

So Weixi's past lives are more like alternative timelines that occurred at the same time (as in same time period in history) as the current story, instead of lives that actually occurred before the current story? In other words, this is like a time loop where she gets to redo the same life (reincarnates as Weixi every time) but make some different decisions each time?

Exactly this.
The fact that I have called both Weixi's origins and the nature of her powers almost three months ago makes me unnecessarily giddy. :'D
EDIT: I really, really hope that Great Demon King Tencent greenlights season two of this amazing story. I need my weekly fix of wuxia baihe so badly...

Thanks, that old comment of yours cleared things up for me greatly. And it's been a while since I read chapter 12, so I had forgotten exactly what happened in that flashback. But I'm guessing that it was from a timeline where Weixi obediently stayed at home at her father's side and never started her weaving factory or seek out Suyou, leaving Suyou to fight alone and lose. At the time I read chapter 12, I was too confused to grasp this ;-;
It would be a crime to not greenlight a second season. Cmon I need more!
Fugue Across Worlds is also incredible. Go read it if you haven't.

You are very welcome!

Seconded. Ke Ran Bing is one of the best "generalist" yuri authors I know, i.e. authors who have a firm grasp on the storytelling fundamentals, not just the standard romance tropes, meaning that her works can be enjoyed both as yuri romps and as simply good stories with great world-building.
