[Lotus Lantern]
Episode 24
What? This...
You... Our young mistress is already like this now.
Why can't you make up your mind?
It's not... Will it work this way?
How can you know if you don't give a try?
You old fool. What are you telling him?
Hurry! Try it ! Come on! Try it!
Hurry! Try it!
What are you looking at?
Stop looking!
It got in! It's really in!
That's an immortality pill.
Ding Xiang, come over and try again.
What's going on?
What happened to her soul?
Ding Xiang, don't worry.
I will find a way to revive you.
Eighth Prince, I'm going to South Sea to try.
Ding Xiang.
Ding Xiang... Actually, I...
I actually wish you would never wake up.
Then I can look at you forever.
Looking at you forever just like now.
I will be content.
I... How can I think such thought?
Ding Xiang! I'm sorry!
I should pray for you to wake up soon.
Even though after you wake up you will be another man's wife.
Chen Xiang treats me as an elder brother.
I should at least treat you as a sister.
How can I?
People who can't be lovers often become brother and sister.
Ding Xiang, you are awake! You're awake!
Don't feel embarrassed toward me.
Ding Xiang, a moment ago did you feel anything unusual?
No.
I opened my eyes and heard you talking.
- What is this place? Why are we here? - This is...
Where is Chen Xiang?
He went to find ways to save you.
Then let's go find him!
Ding Xiang, why are you so anxious?
When has he ever been so anxious for you?
I guess you are right.
Can you be my brother from now on?
Eighth Brother!
You want to call me 'Parrot?' (Sounds similar in Chinese)
Ding Xiang, it's been a long time since I've seen you laughing so happily.
- You too! - Really?
Do you want to hear what he said to me?
I don't want to.
Good brother and sister? I'm sharing with you.
Enjoy it on your own!
You really don't want to hear?
So what did he say?
He said...
I won't let you leave me. I will marry you.
Ding Xiang, we are going home now.
When we get home, we will get married.
I didn't intend to make you unhappy.
You've treated me so well.
I'm... I'm just very happy.
I treat you as a brother.
I didn't feel unhappy. I'm happy!
I'm happy for both of you. Really.
It's probably him?
Ding Xiang, lie down quickly! Hurry!
Pretend you're dead.
You're back. Have you found any ways?
Guan Yin said...
Since her soul isn't in the living nor the nether world, it proves that she didn't die.
But...
Ding Xiang. I'm sorry.
What can I do to save you?
Can you tell me?
Ding Xiang, I won't let you die.
Even if I have to give up my life I'll still save you.
As long as you can come back it's fine even if you can't forgive me.
You really can't die. You can't die.
Ding Xiang, you are awake!
Good. It's good that you're awake.
Are you all right? What's wrong? I'm fine.
Ding Xiang, how did you become so strong?
I don't know either.
All right, it's all right. Never mind.
I say, Ding Xiang is awake now.
The sun is shining again after the rain.
Both of you should hurry back.
Work on details for the wedding, right?
Then, aren't you coming with us?
I don't need to. It's for you two to discuss.
Chen Xiang! Hurry and go! Go!
Take care of your wife. Don't fall.
Go... Don't miss me.
Chen Xiang, drive me to Mount Hua by a cloud.
I can tell my mom to start preparing.
Ding Xiang, I still need...
I still need some time.
You lied to me again.
Ding Xiang.
Chen Xiang! Chen Xiang!
Chen Xiang, I'm sorry.
Sorry, It wasn't intentional. Are you okay?
I'm sorry.
Ding Xiang, let's go back to get married now.
Are you seeing clearly who I am?
- Do you need to think it over? - I've decided.
Don't you need to consider carefully?
I really have decided.
Then I need to think it over.
What? You've backed out several times.
Who knows if this time it is for real?
I can't just casually marry someone who is so capricious.
Ding Xiang, this time it is for real. It really is real.
Then don't you need to explain to her?
An explanation is good.
So, we won't have each other on our minds anymore.
You really have a good place.
Xiao Yu...
I really tried to give him back to you.
But, it's the same for you and me both.
It is easier said than done.
In fact, we both understand...
No matter what he says, you are the one he loves the most.
I've wanted to go inside his heart and to try to occupy a spot there.
I will try my best to make him happy and live well.
I hope you can bless us in secret.
Xiao Yu, I never dreamed that we would become irreconcilable enemies.
As a son, I don't want to stop you from revenging for your parents.
But, I cannot let my mom get hurt.
So, a son will pay for his parent's debt.
If you want to revenge, come to me.
Xiao Yu, I can't fulfill what I said before.
From now on, I won't make promises easily to anyone.
Once I make a promise, I will make sure it is fulfilled.
Shall we go?
Granny, I know he is our enemy.
But I just can't let go of him.
I still can't believe he will marry someone else.
Granny, please let me see him once more.
I want to see him marry another with my own eyes.
Then I will give up my love forever.
This is the only way I can take revenge without hindrance.
People who can't be lovers often become brother and sister.
Ding Xiang, Chen Xiang, am I too selfish?
I don't even dare go to your wedding.
But you both treat me as a brother.
I must go. It's probably painful.
There is no one more in pain
than the person who has to watch his beloved marry someone else.
Your good friend marries your beloved.
You should be happy.
Even if you have to pretend you should pretend to be very happy.
[Ding's residence]
Please come in.
- Congratulations... - Please come in...
My lord, you came! Welcome!
Chen Xiang, do you still miss her?
Guests are arriving.
You'd better look lively.
The bride is coming out.
First bow is to Heaven and Earth.
I, Liu Chen Xiang, can bow to anything except Heaven.
Yes, Liu's family doesn't bow to Heaven.
Especially when marrying Ding's family, we won't bow to Heaven.
All right... Let's skip this one.
Please.
Second bow is to parents.
Husband and wife bow to each other.
- Hurry and bow... - Why not bow?
Chen Xiang!
- Chen Xiang! - Chen Xiang!
Xiao Yu!
You should be at the wedding. Why are you here?
I don't know either.
Xiao Yu, I just want to tell you one thing.
Forget me.
Forget all the worries.
Just be an innocent, happy little fox again.
I can't. What can I do? I can't.
Xiao Yu, I'm sorry. Please forget me.
Sure.
I've thought of a way to forget you.
My mom...
- Chen Xiang. - Me? I'm not.
- Chen Xiang, you lied to me! - No.
- I know you are Chen Xiang. - No, I'm not.
You've come back.
My mom said, you and I have an arranged marriage.
- Do you know what an arranged marriage is? - Yes, I know.
It seems... it seems a lot of people come to our house.
- They must have come to see us marry. - Us?
- Why did you run away? - I... I didn't run away.
Then let's go home and get married. Go!
This... should be discussed a little more.
What's more to discuss?
You must miss the little fox again, right?
I... I don't... I don't...
What are you staring at? I'll beat you.
Dog Fairy!
- You! - I knew this is a trap.
Ding Xiang, are you all right?
Eighth Prince, did you see Chen Xiang?
- Was it Xiao Yu? - Xiao Yu came.
Xiao Yu came.
Xiao Yu came...
Chen Xiang.
Chen Xiang, why did you run away?
I thought...
I thought you didn't want me again.
You were scaring me, Chen Xiang.
All right...
You know very well you can't kill me.
Even though I can't, I still have to try.
Your body will be bounced by the light pillars
and will drop to the lava below.
Then I will die for revenge.
Succubus of Mount Hua.
Actually you have other ways to revenge.
I want to use my own way.
If my death can let you give up your revenge
I'm willing to die, without your doing it.
You are willing to kill yourself?
Yes, but there is a condition.
You must not take revenge against Monkey King.
- Give up your hatred. - No.
I will still use my own way.
Kill you first, then kill Monkey King.
No. In fact, you don't want to revenge.
You're only giving yourself an excuse to die.
Am I right?
- No. - Yes.
No! No!
Don't!
Xiao Yu, our love has ended from now on.
But, you have to promise me one thing.
I will bear my mother's debt for your revenge.
After I have saved my mom, my life would be yours.
You can take it whenever you want.
What if I don't agree?
You should know
The pain suffered by a mother who loses her child
is much more unbearable than that suffered by a child who loses his mother.
Then, not only you will have revenged you will get doubled the effect.
Since you know that why would you let your mom suffer this kind of pain?
At least, I can free myself.
Otherwise, I will stop you from revenging.
Your wish for revenge will never come true.
All right, I promise you.
Chen Xiang, doing so is unfair to her.
You clearly know she won't kill you.
I can do without anything.
But I can't do without my mom and dad.
If it weren't for my parents, there wouldn't be me.
Mom, I won't let anyone hurt you, unless I am dead.
You are getting married today?
Mom, the wedding is not finished yet.
So I can't stay with you for too long.
See how you have harmed her?
- Ding Xiang. - Brother.
Don't be afraid...
He's the Cheng Xiang you're looking for.
- Don't be afraid. - He is not.
He is not Chen Xiang. Not him.
Ding Xiang.
- It's me. Ding Xiang. - I don't know you. Let go.
I'm sorry, Ding Xiang.
I really am Chen Xiang.
Why did you run way? You didn't want me?
Ding Xiang.
Ding Xiang, are you all right now?
Me? What could be wrong with me?
Dog Fairy went away for a while already.
He will surely not come back alone.
Let's leave here as soon as possible.
Go to my home and get your dad first. Hurry!
Ding Xiang!
Good then bad. It's been repeating quite a few times.
Granny, I have no way out now.
My heart is confused. I can't achieve Sky Breaking Palm.
But, I can no longer wait.
I must take revenge on Monkey King now.
If I can't take revenge successfully, I'll die under his rod.
It'll be the end.
But if by luck I can succeed I will see Chen Xiang again.
Granny, do you know?
Chen Xiang said his life is mine.
I will die with him together.
Monkey King, come out!
Come out! Monkey King! Come out!
Come out! Monkey King!
Come out! Come out!
I was concerned that Er Lang Shen would hurt Iron Fan Princess.
I had no choice but obeyed his orders.
Your Majesty, Your Highness, please judge me wisely.
Bull Demon King, don't make your bull lies.
Your Majesty, Your Highness.
Because of the matter over Chen Xiang I had some conflicts with Bull Demon King.
His lies are intended to frame me.
Your Majesty and Your Highness, please judge wisely.
Yang Jian, you are someone with stature.
Why don't you be a man and admit what you've done?
Kid, you are still wet behind the ears.
Do you know how to be a man?
Although Scarlet Boy doesn't look old he has lived for a few hundred years.
He can surely be a man.
He can easily be a grandpa, too.
Monkey King, this is Ling Xiao Hall.
Ling Xiao Hall?
Heaven's laws are abolished.
If I make a little mess in Ling Xiao Hall it's nothing big to worry about.
Nonsense, who said I abolished the laws?
Not abolished?
How do you punish the crime of lying to the Emperor?
From now on, anyone who lies to the Emperor will be sent to Hell, never to return.
No one can intercede.
That's more like it.
Now you can uphold Heaven's authority.
Bull Demon King, answer this.
Er Lang Shen is Heaven's god of justice.
Why would he let you abduct Flower Fairy?
Your Highness, it's probably a secret.
Why would he tell me?
Brother Bull. You may not know the reason why.
But I know it quite clearly.
Monkey King!
Continue your nonsense and I'll cut you to pieces.
Yang Jian!
You tricked the pithy formulas out of your sister.
Don't think I'll be scared of you.
- Complete nonsense! - I talk nonsense?
Who said he would resigns his office to force Heaven to pardon Chen Xiang?
Who said Chen Xiang killed a monkey at Mount E Mei
and I wanted him to pay with his life?
Who also said, for protecting Chen Xiang, he wanted...
You are talking nonsense!
So you don't know the Lotus Lantern's pithy formulas?
I don't know.
So that means I misjudged you. Sorry!
Your Majesty, Your Highness, you heard?
Er Lang Shen doesn't know the Lotus Lantern's pithy formulas.
So of course he doesn't know how to use Lotus Lantern.
Yang Jian!
If you ever use Lotus Lantern to fight others
that's an offense of lying to the Emperor.
Your Majesty, my memory is bad.
What is the punishment for lying to the Emperor?
Don't cut in, I'm still examining a case.
Your Majesty, if you want to know why
Yang Jian told Bull King to abduct Flower Fairy
just ask Moon Fairy and you will know.
Moon Fairy! Tell me what it's about.
- I... - Moon Fairy!
About Er Lang Shen breaking the jade tree at Guang Han Palace.
- Does Flower Fairy know about? - Yes.
- Who told her? - I did.
Moon Fairy! Moon Fairy!
So you're the one who hurt Flower Fairy!
I...
Your Majesty, Your Highness, I'm innocent.
This case is complex with confusing details.
Let's send Bull Demon King to jail first.
- We'll examine the case another day. - Fine.
Hold it, Your Highness, that's not right.
Actually everything is about to come to light.
How can you say 'Confusing details?'
Here's what I think.
First absolve Yang Jian from capital punishment.
If he confesses, dismiss his job as god of justice.
Send him back to Quan Jiang Kou as guard.
Also absolve Bull Demon King's crime.
Let him release Flower Fairy.
A battle is prevented. Everyone is happy.
What does everyone think?
If Er Lang Shen is really guilty, we can't just let him go back to Quan Jiang Kou.
I think, let's discuss this case another day.
I'm innocent!
My dad didn't frame Er Lang Shen.
- Wait! - Take him down!
Heaven is unjust. Watch me burn your Ling Xiao Hall.
Yang Jian, how did you do it?
Even your own nephew helps others to beat you!
If he really makes a great accomplishment
but I don't consider it
I would lose credibility in front of everyone.
If Your Majesty insists, then I've one condition.
