Episode 16
Hey! What are you doing?
I should be asking you what you're doing!
Why're you trying to act carefree
when your heart's not into it? What are you thinking about?
I'm not thinking about anything.
This is all in the past. I want to start a new life.
Didn't you ask me before who that girl is?
She's Miss Yurou.
Miss Yurou?
The more I like her, the more painful it is.
Did you know? I miss her every day. I think about her every moment.
I'm thinking, if I really left,
will I never see her again?
There's so many women in this world. Why are you so hung up on her?
They say that love is like an ocean. There might be a lot of water,
but everyone only wants the part they desire.
"There might be many fish in the ocean, but I only want that one."
Then she's the part I want.
What's good about her?
There's a lot of good things about her. Warm, smart, and easygoing. She's happy to help others too.
In any case, there's a lot!
Then what about the bad qualities?
There are none.
If I had to pick one,
it's that she's warm to me one moment and cold the next.
You're besotted!
You can't even see her bad qualities!
Then let's hear what bad qualities you have to name!
Quit thinking about a girl that's warm to you one moment and cold to you the next!
If she liked you, how could she bear to make you sad?
Then perhaps she's testing my sincerity!
If she liked you, look, you're missing now.
Why hasn't she come looking for you?
She just likes to play with men, and-!
Enough! How can you say those things about her?
You're her fan! How can you slander her name?
I...
You you you, you what?
I know. You just want to comfort me.
I understand you.
But you can't talk about her that way.
It'll make me feel worse if you talk about her like that, you know?
You're such a good person.
Why be so sad for an unworthy person? Is it worth it?
It's worth it.
But I was right to leave her.
Because I'm not human.
I can't bring her happiness.
I can only bring her pain and harm.
They all say that love is like an ocean. Even though there's a lot of water,
each person only wants that little part.
Warm, smart, easygoing, and happy to help others.
In any case, there's a lot of good qualities.
If you say that about her, that'll only make me feel worse, you know?
Fatty!
Fat-
What's wrong?
Hurry and get up.
Fatty, what's wrong?
I'm okay.
Just now, there was a surge of Vent energy...
Vent energy?
It couldn't be that demons are making trouble here?
Fatty, why are you unhappy?
Were my words this afternoon too much? I'm sorry.
No! It's not wrong to protect the one you love.
If someone was willing to talk about me like that,
I would definitely be so touched!
What's the use? She can't hear them.
What if she heard them?
Don't trick me.
Forget it. In any case, I said I want to live a new life.
Don't mention what was in the past.
I picked you some wild berries.
It would be so great if this world was always this peaceful.
If this world was always this peaceful,
how does that count as life?
At least, there is no pain.
If you don't know pain, you'll naturally not know what happiness is either.
Year after year, day after day.
If you die one day, won't you feel regretful?
You love me so much.
Yet I made you so sad.
Actually...actually...
I am Yurou.
♫ Even winds calm, rain stops, and clouds scatter ♫
I'm sorry.
Yurou...
♫ We've yet to see how the stars rise and fall ♫
♫ So how can we make any promises about the days ahead? ♫
♫ The threads of fate are hidden behind time ♫
Yurou...
♫ Will we ever see each other again after "Goodbye"? ♫
♫ Even if I were to forget myself, my past, or the end ♫
♫ No matter how my memory wanders, it always comes back to your face ♫
♫ Fate has drowned out all misery and sorrow ♫
♫ Having loved you, my life is now complete ♫
Miss Yurou, why are you lying on top of me?
I...
Where is my friend? Did you see her?
Friend?
What friend?
Crap. There was a surge of Vent energy here last night.
I was afraid that a demon was making trouble here.
Wait a second for me! I'll go look for her.
Fatty! Fatty!
Fatty!
Fatty! Fatty!
Miss Yurou!
Miss Yurou, Miss Yurou!
Demon, how dare you break into Mt. Shu's sacred land?
Let go of Junior Sister! Let her go!
Senior Brothers, I suddenly felt unwell on the way here.
Thankfully Yunfan brought me here to see Master.
Stop it!
Who is it?
Yurou?
Hurry and bring Yurou to see Senior Master Cao Gu.
You're that old senior who stole the liquor to drink!
What "old senior who stole the liquor to drink"?
Little Boy, we meet again!
Good, good, good, Yellow.
You ungrateful thing!
I didn't treat you poorly these days!
Have you forgotten me now that you've seen your old master?
Don't hold it against Yellow.
Come, Boy. I'll treat you to wine! Come!
Senior,
why are you here?
You are so uneducated! This is one of our Seven Sages of Shu, Priest Yi Pin!
Senior! So you are part of the Seven Sages of Shu?
I really embarrassed myself.
What "Sage", I'm just an ordinary old taoist priest.
Let's go drink! Come on!
Senior. I think we should forget about it.
I'm returning Yellow back to you now. We don't owe each other anything now.
If there isn't anything, I'll leave first.
Little Boy! Come come come.
Since you've come to Mt. Shu's doors, don't be so courteous.
You have to at least try our famous tofu pudding!
Not everyone gets a chance to taste it, so don't be shy!
Senior. "It's better for us to avoid one another as our paths are different."
I don't think that I'm lucky enough to eat it.
I'll be leaving first.
Okay, okay. But before you go, I have to ask you a question.
What question?
Living in the human world with your identity.
Have you never cared about the way they look at you?
So what if I cared, or if I didn't? That won't solve the problem anyway.
Isn't it just fine if I don't think about it?
It's not that you can't solve the problem.
It depends on if you're willing to solve it or not.
Senior. You're not making me stay at Mt. Shu, are you?
How can you guess what I was thinking?
Senior. I won't stay at Mt. Shu.
You shouldn't waste your breath.
Everyone says I have evil powers in my body so I should come to Mt. Shu.
I don't understand. So what if I have evil powers?
Will I definitely do bad things if I have evil powers?
Little Boy, you're overthinking. We're not trying to insult you.
I just want to persuade you to take a road that matches you.
If others knew your identity, and you still wanted to live as in the past,
I don't think it'll be that simple.
I've never tried it. So how would I know the ending?
Very well then. Since you've already made up your mind,
I won't forcibly keep you anymore.
Thank you Senior. I'll leave first.
Then can you let go of Yurou?
Let me tell you. Our tofu pudding is really delicious!
I guarantee that you'll want another bowl after the first!
It's been so long since I had such delicious tofu pudding! It's so good!
What? What is it?
I've never seen such a messy eater before.
You can only eat happily this way! Stop acting serious, hurry and eat!
It's so good!
Zhao Ren Fan!
How did you know he'd definitely go up the mountain?
You haven't even finished yours yet.
This is for Zhao Ren Fan, not you!
You two are here too?
Stinky Long You said you'd definitely come here, so we came here to wait for yo u!
But...didn't you say that you wouldn't go to Mt. Shu?
I did say I wouldn't go up Mt. Shu, but what do I do?
I met Miss Yurou on the way, and she felt unwell.
So I brought her here to see her teacher.
Long You, why are you here?
Because...there's good food to eat.
This is Mt. Shu's special tofu pudding! Hurry and try it!
Hey!
-Senior Brother, the disciples said you were the one who had them fly on their swords.-Yep!
You're disrespecting the sect's rules!
Junior Sister, how can this count as disrespecting sect rules?
I think it's about time for Mt. Shu's annual flying on the swords race.
I just wanted them to get some practice first.
Look. They're having so much fun!
When I first entered Mt. Shu, half the reason was because of this.
One, it's fun.
Two, I could act cool in front of the ladies.
I really don't understand. Why do you men always like these stupid things?
If you want to know, then find a way to understand it more!
It looks like I wasn't wrong.
Jiang Yunfan is also very interested in flying on swords.
I hope to keep him here.
When did they come?
You're talking about them? They just arrived.
Look at that kid. He has such well-defined features.
A lot of ladies will like him!
He's calling for you!
Do you two know each other?
He's just a guy who has a glib tongue.
I have no good feelings about him.
I originally thought we wouldn't meet again after last time. I didn't think that we'd run into each other again.
Junior Sister, he's still our guest.
As the senior, you can't embarrass yourself.
Senior Brother. Out of us all, you're the one who doesn't care about the rules.
How come you're suddenly so concerned with the proprieties?
He's also a brat!
Junior Sister, towards those you don't like,
you always act cold
and wouldn't even say a word to them.
Why do you care so much about that brat?
I have no connection to him!
You don't need to explain to me about that.
I-!
Forget it. I just don't like him.
It's annoying just seeing him.
Sometimes that's a good thing.
She left?
Miss, are you also a Mt. Shu disciple?
I say, you don't look very old, Miss. Why do you dress so maturely?
You have white hair too!
You...you couldn't be sick, right?
You came to Mt. Shu to get treated?
Where did this demon come from? You dare to wander around Mt. Shu?
What demon? I didn't come randomly to take a walk.
I'm telling you, I just took a young lady here who wasn't feeling well.
I think she was a little taller than you.
She also looks a bit more normal than you.
She has a yellow dress on.
That's right. Her name is Tang Yurou. Do you know her?
You were the one who brought her back?
Yes! I brought her back.
She's fine.
That...!
I want to ask where she is. I want to see her.
It's not convenient for her to see people now. You should leave.
That young miss is so weird!
Zhao Ren Fan!
Xiao Man?
So you came here?
Don't talk about it.
I met a little miss just now who was even stranger than you!
I originally wanted to ask after Miss Yurou.
In the end? Her face was colder than ice!
Miss?
Are you talking about the lady with two strips of white hair?
Yeah, you know her?
Then did you ask about her hair?
I did! I said "you're so young but you have white hair!"
Oh no, oh no, oh no!
That young lady is Miss Yurou's teacher, Sage Cao Gu!
But-! She-! She's Miss Yurou's teacher?
No-!
Aren't everyone's teachers white haired old men or women?
She doesn't look like a teacher.
Sage Cao Gu became like this only because she made a mistake while making medicine for someone many years ago!
Also, she hates it most when people rudely joke about her hair!
Oh no, oh no, oh no!
What do I do?
I already said it, what do I do?
Forget it. Find a chance to apologize.
I think I should just forget it.
How about you go apologize for me?
What?
Oh no, oh no, oh no!
Zhao Ren Fan, don't leave!
-How about I teach you how to fly on the sword?-You teach me?
Of course! Stay!
Zhao Ren Fan! Long You, help me!
Yunfan, once Yurou's body gets better, personally go and say goodbye to her.
You can just leave then.
Little Boy, you want to leave?
Grandpa! Hurry and persuade him!
He said he wants to go to Gale Fortress after knowing that Sister Yurou is okay!
He won't stay no matter what I say!
Hurry and persuade him, Grandpa!
Senior. I've already made my decision.
Mt. Shu...doesn't suit me.
But thank you for your hospitality and the tofu pudding.
It really is delicious.
Okay then. Then you must be careful on the way back.
Grandpa!
Xiao Man, you don't like to stay in a place you don't like either.
Right?
Thank you Senior, for your understanding.
Little Boy. If you can come back here, Mt. Shu will always welcome you.
I'm leaving.
Gale Fortress
Macheng! Zhaoping! I'm back!
Who's calling?
Who is it?
-Macheng!-Chief!
Hey! Zhaoping!
I thought this would forever be my home.
I was too naive.
Goodbye forever.
Yunfan, you're the best! Yunfan, you're the best! Yunfan, you're the best!
Hurry!
Yunfan!
Chief!
-Yunfan is back!-Dad!
-Yunfan!-Dad!
Fanfan!
You brat, you're back.
It's good that you're back. It's good that you're back.
I'm back.
Yunfan, everyone was hoping every day that you could come back sooner.
That's right, you finally came back!
Fanfan. Did you suffer out there?
Besides you, who can make me suffer?
You stinky brat!
Where is my pipe?
Over there!
You sneaked a whiff of my pipe again?
Yeah!
You want to suffer from your godfather, huh?
Come!
I say, Chief! You waited every day for Yunfan to come back.
Why are you hitting him the moment you see him?
What do you know? A child won't be filial if you don't hit him!
That's right!
Brat, Caiwei searched for news on you every day you weren't here.
You should have some heart!
That's right! You heartless brat, you didn't even send a letter home!
I'm so sorry, everyone! I made you all worry about me!
Especially Caiwei! Caiwei!
Okay okay, forget about it.
I'm not that girly!
Go back first. I'll spare you.
He's forgiven!
Even though I know you all missed me.
My looks aren't bad either.
But why did you put my picture everywhere?
Stop flattering yourself!
Vice-Chief drew all of them!
It's like this...ever since you went against the Families and succeeded,
not to mention Clean Sky Sect as well...
our Gale Fortress became very festive!
No matter if it's a human or a demon, they wanted to see what you looked like!
They found here too?
Yes!
Long You really does have some good predictive skills.
That's right! We all said that you weren't here.
Those people wouldn't leave no matter what we said!
Later on, I don't know who said it, but they said taking your picture away was the same thing!
Who was it? Whose idea was it?
It was him, it was him!
He even said that your picture will ward off misfortune and evil!
Yeah, he said it!
They came anyway!
They came so happily, so we couldn't disappoint them, right?
We could also make a little money too.
You are quite amazing! Those people brought back your picture to put on their doors!
I say, Macheng. What do you treat me as?
I just came up with an idea. Drawing was Caiwei's idea!
Also, there was also Zhaoping!
Me? It was you!
It was you! It was you!
Since Fanfan came back today, I have decided to have a feast tonight!
Hey! This is your share.
I don't want it.
What is it? You don't treat yourself as a member of the fortress anymore?
Dad, don't think that.
I live in the fortress, and I will die in the fortress.
I just said it on a whim, look at you!
You're not allowed to say such unlucky words anymore in the future.
Since you still treat yourself as a member of the fortress,
come, take it!
You all still treat me the best.
Since you've come back, live happily. Just like in the past.
Can I still do that?
I'm not the old Jiang Yunfan anymore.
I promised your mother that year that I'd take good care of you.
I would have you live safe, normal,
and happy days.
It looks like...I broke my promise.
"Fortune and Misfortune come unheeded, but we can't avoid Misfortune."
We can't blame you on this matter anyway.
Dad, you don't need to blame yourself.
Good, you didn't waste your trip out there.
You learned how to comfort others.
It's because I took a trip outside, and gained some experience,
did I realize how not filial I was.
Dad, tell me about my mother and that person.
How can you talk like that? You have no manners.
What "that person"? He's your birth father.
No matter who he is,
Dad, tell me everything you know.
Actually, your mother never told me much.
So I don't know too much.
What I know is, that your mother and your father were fellow disciples.
Later on, it seems like your father killed one of his fellow disciples, and was kicked out of the sect.
And later on...your mother left with him.
One time your mother told me that your father didn't kill anyone.
He was discriminated and plotted against.
But in this matter, only one person believed your father.
That was your mother.
"The clouds ('Yun') float by in the clear sky while a gentle breeze stirs."
"They drift unhampered by the woes of the world ('Fan')."
The world ('Shi') is filled with star-crossed lovers."
It is fate to have loved and lost ('Li').
Yunfan, Shili?
Yunfan.
Shili.
Yunfan, come! I'm treating you to food!
That's right. How are you and Miss Tang?
Didn't you look for news on me? How could you not know?
What I mean is,
what is your progress with her after the open contest?
I'm already like this now. How would I have time to think about love?
It couldn't be that Miss Tang started discriminating against you after she knew of your identity?
No. It's just...
Forget it. We're just friends now.
Really? This is great!
What?
I mean...the candied gourds that I make are great!
Actually...the candied gourd you're holding has a name.
What is the name?
"Sunshine after rain ('Yu')."
I made it just for you.
Every time someone comes to buy it, they will call
"Sunshine after rain"! "Sunshine after rain"!
This way, every day there are a lot of people giving you blessings.
You'll definitely find "sunshine after rain"!
You all treat me the best.
Of course!
-Junior Master.-Your teacher has gone to get herbs for you.
Before she set out, she wanted me to come see you.
I made you all worry. I'm all better now, I can get out of bed.
Look at you. This is the price you paid for that brat.
You're still laughing? Is it because you feel like
your sacrifice was worth it?
But did you know that that brat has gone back to Gale Fortress?
He left?
This is the way he paid you back!
You know that you can't eat the black nightshade carelessly!
Aren't you just taking your life as a joke this way?
You only care about that brat. Think about your teacher!
I really don't understand. For one Jiang Yunfan, everything became a mess.
The Four Aristocratic Families started fighting internally because of him.
The Clean Sky Sect retreated for him!
And Senior Brother Yi Pin disregarded the sect rules to make him stay!
And you-!
I think it's because Senior Master Yi Pin knew he was innocent
that why he wanted to guide him, and make sure he doesn't stray from the right path.
If his fundamental character is bad, how are you going to stop him?
Prevention is better than cure. Guiding him onto the right path
is also a proper way.
No other method is able to guarantee that he doesn't become evil.
Only locking him up is the best strategy.
Junior Master!
What?
Are you afraid I'll capture him right now?
Don't worry. If he keeps to his place,
I won't do anything to him.
But if he does anything wrong,
don't blame me.
Timing and subtitles brought to you by The Clouds of the World Team @ Viki
I'm so bored!
If you're bored, then go sleep!
Why should I sleep during the day?
Didn't you sleep during the day in the past anyway?
-It's finished. Take it.-Uncle Fang, let me.
I say, can't you all give me something to do?
I don't know how to, but I can learn!
I'm just afraid that the more you help, the bigger the mess!
That's right! We have to open up again tomorrow.
There will be so many people tomorrow. We have to rush now.
How would we have time to teach you?
I'm asking you all. Where is this place?
This is Gale Fortress! We are crass people!
Can't you do some things that crass people are supposed to do?
In the past we robbed because we didn't have a choice.
We have proper business to do now, and money to earn!
Who will still do the things we did in the past, right?
Uncle Fang, let me ask you.
Do you remember what we swore to do?
Was it to earn money? It was to rob the rich and help the poor!
Yunfan, but if we don't rob the rich now, we can still help the poor!
-That's right.-That's true!
Then let me ask you all.
If we do these things now,
who is going to punish those greedy officials?
Are we going to let them do as they wish?
We don't have this rule in our fortress!
Rules aren't just spoken!
It's remembered in the heart!
Okay, okay! Since it's like this, in the future,
if any greedy officials go by, we'll gather our people and rob them!
In the meantime, let's just cater to the customers!
Good idea! Okay!
Hey, hey!
You all-!
Everyone pause.
Tomorrow, a group of very evil people will pass by our Gale Fortress.
There's one person! It's coming!
We haven't robbed in a long time. I'm a bit nervous today.
That's not right.
It seems like they belong to Mt. Shu.
Dad, you really have seen a lot.
Mt. Shu is a righteous sect.
We cannot rob them. Retreat.
What is it?
They may be a righteous sect,
but sometimes the things they do are worse than the evil sects.
Don't let their outside appearance trick you.
I have discovered that you're becoming more daring!
Mt. Shu's martial arts are world famous! Do you want us all to die?
That's right!
-Do it, do it!-Do what?
You only know how to do it! You go ahead!
-I'll go!-Godfather,
even though we're not their match in martial arts,
-Of course.-But,
we can rely on our wits.
That's enough! You've already landed us in hot soup once.
Help! Hurry and help me!
Help me! Help me!
A demon is killing people over there!
What is that?
Yunfan won!
Hurry and run!
Don't run!
Hey! Go back and tell that stinky Taoist Priest Yi Pin
that because of them, today,
I was able to steal this stuff! I am living very well here!
He doesn't need to worry about me!
Fanfan! Yunfan, you're the best!
Gale Fortress
Why is it so quiet? Are they all drunk?
Who are you?!
Jiang Yunfan.
You are Jiang Yunfan.
The goal is me again?
The one you want is me. Don't harm my family!
♫ I tried so hard to see through the darkness of night ♫
♫ But I can no longer understand the brightness of light ♫
♫ I no longer care about what's right and what's wrong ♫
♫ But I still want to know where the line is between those two ♫

♫ So much joy; so much sorrow ♫
♫ Whether we laugh or cry, we'll miss them all ♫
