The following are pictures of the final scene of the final episode where I hated it for reasons leading up to this scene and not the scene itself.
With the song "Couldn't Say" as background song, possibly the worst song to depict a happy ending.

What should have been the ultimate happy ending is the following lovely quote taken from one of the many epilogues translated by Sarafina of
SPCNET Forums;
师父,我们回去吧,长留山还有大家和我一样需要你。绝情殿有我人生中最美好的记忆,我很想念那个地方。而 且好不容易找回了一切,我想和大家分分秒秒都在一起,不想分开太远。最重要的是,我想成为对师父而言最重要 的人,但不是一切。师祖对你的嘱托,你对长留和众生的责任,这些都是不能推脱也不能被辜负的,不要因为我而 离开放弃。长留是师父的家,是师父的根,也曾经是师父的全部,过去的日子师父虽然也是一个人,但是从来都不 会觉得孤独,那是因为你有要做的事。可是在云山的这些年,你却没有一天真正快乐过。我知道师父一直挂心着这 里的,不然你不会选择到长留山海底来借安眠逃避。师父,我们回去吧,爱与大义是可以两全的。小骨想知道今年 绝情殿的桃花开得好不好……
Teacher, let's return (to Chang Liu). Both Chang Liu and I need you. My fondest memories are there.... I want to become Teacher's most important person but not everything. You have your responsibilities to Chang Liu, to your teacher, to the world. You cannot forsake them all for me. Chang Liu is your home and your roots. Even though I was alone with you on Yun Mountain for so many years [Note: when she was still retarded from her incomplete reincarnation and had BZH all to herself], you've never been truly happy. I know your heart is still with Chang Liu. So let us return. Love and righteousness can co-exist.
One supposes that Changliu by that time changed from Catholicism to Protestantism
This would've been the ending lines. It would've been perfect. Them sitting and eating together at the hall of emotionless or playing zither at the cliff or HQG planting flowers while BZH is reading or them doing sword play... haaaysss so many ways to perfectly end the series but they chose not to. Sigh
