Episode 34
There is no question for the last round.
What I can do is to stop you from passing!
Since it's like this, please make your move, Sect Leader!
Yunfan!
Yunfan! Yunfan! Yunfan!
-Yunfan!-Yunfan!
-Yunfan!-Yunfan get up!
Yunfan! Yunfan wake up!
Yunfan!
-Yunfan!-Yunfan!
Yunfan!
Long You, what is going on?
What's wrong with Yunfan?
Jiang Shili must be activating the power in his body.
Only then can he rejuvenate himself.
Yunfan!
I'm okay, don't worry.
I just felt some power moving in my chest.
My body was filled with power.
YunFan, the two powers of good and evil are in harmony with each other.
You became stronger.
Sect Leader, if I offended you just now, I hope you will be understanding.
You don't need to be so courteous. I lost the competition just now.
Since I made a promise, I must keep it.
You have passed.
This is great!
We passed!
Passed!
Sect Leader, I was disloyal.
Today, Yunfan passed through the Seven Star Demon Subduing Formation.
From now on, am I not a disciple of Mt. Shu anymore?
If it's like this,
I hope that you will let me bow to you once!
Yunfan. You were once a disciple of Mt. Shu.
In the future, no matter what you do, you must remember this.
Let's go.
Why are you all staring? Isn't it just a sword?
It's a holy sword.
Fu Xi Sword... this is Fu Xi Sword!
We finally succeeded!
Yunfan, are you okay?
I'm all right. I can feel Fu Xi Sword's power.
It is indeed an ancient treasure, it's different from other things.
I believe that with this sword, I can definitely break open the blood jade to save my father.
There's little time. Let's go save Jiang Shili right now.
You're right. My power has strengthened a lot now.
I think we will definitely succeed.
Okay! I'll help you too!
Xiao Man, I thought the Sage Cauldron was returned to Mt. Shu long ago.
Why is the stone bowl empty?
It's not like I didn't return it!
It'll just be put there anyway. I still have something to ask it!
Let's not worry about this now. Let's go save my father first.
Let's go.
Sect Leader, although Yunfan broke our formation,
we can't just let him take Fu Xi Sword!
Fu Xi Sword is an ancient treasure and has been enshrined at Mt. Shu for centuries!
If someone uses it to make trouble,
then isn't it Mt. Shu's fault?
Besides, that brat got it to save Jiang Shili!
It's a crime that cannot be spared!
Sect Leader, why don't I go with Senior Brother Tie Bi
to Demon Shackling Pagoda to stop Yunfan?
If the demon king appears, the Clean Sky Sect will take action.
I'm just afraid that this time, not only will it be Mt. Shu,
the human realm will also go through a crisis!
Yi Pin. What do you think?
Yunfan already break through the Seven Star Demon Subduing Formation
and took Fu Xi Sword.
Even if we're more unwilling,
but the ancestors had their rule.
The person who breaks the formation is qualified to use Fu Xi Sword.
Even if it's the sect leader, he cannot ask about it.
If we go stop him now, it wouldn't be right!
But I believe Yunfan with Fu Xi Sword
will make a choice that isn't against his conscience.
Senior Brother Yi Pin believes in Yunfan.
He won't put the human realm into danger.
He's right.
Senior Brother, how can you be sure?
I think that Yunfan still doesn't understand things.
We must stop him, just in case!
Senior brothers and sisters, stop fighting.
No matter if we block him or not, Yunfan might not successfully save Jiang Shili.
Since fate has set that he has to make a choice,
then he has to pay the huge price.
Junior Sister Cao Gu, don't you think so?
A huge price?
The true price will only make Yunfan live his life in pain.
He cannot save Jiang Shili.
Strange, I thought someone would come stop us.
There is the ancestral sect leader's rule here.
We should make good use of our time.
Sister Yurou, are you okay?
I'm okay, don't panic.
He was locked away for so long.
I wonder if this really will lead to a storm of blood.
Yunfan, do you intend to give up?
No.
I know him. I understand him.
He is definitely a reasonable grand hero.
Yunfan.
You have to believe in your own choice. There's no time, go ahead.
Sister Yurou!
-Yurou!-Yurou!
Junior Master Cao Gu, what's going on?
You almost killed her!
What is going on with Yurou?
Why did she suddenly faint? Did the blood jade's power fade?
Correct. The blood jade's powers have been overused
so Yurou fainted.
Why did this happen?
-It's because of you!-Me?
Nv Wa's blood jade is made from her own blood.
It has limitless power.
But just now, it was damaged by your Fu Xi Sword.
Nv Wa's blood jade was affected, and so was Yurou.
She almost died in your hands!
In these twent years, Yurou used the blood jade to stay alive.
If you insist on saving Jiang Shili and destroying the blood jade,
then you will make the blood jade's power completely disappear.
It will become the same as a regular stone.
That means that if the blood jade is destroyed,
then Yurou's only hope of living on will also be destroyed.
This is no different from you personally killing her!
How could it be like this?
Jiang Yunfan, listen up.
If you think about Yurou's life,
you should give up on saving Jiang Shili!
Or else, it will be the same as pushing Yurou onto a dead end path!
But...to destroy Jiang Shili,
we have to wait for the power of the blood jade to deplete.
That's possible.
In these years, I kept thinking of ways to help Yurou's life last longer.
Only when the blood jade is reunited can the blood jade's power be restored.
Only then can Yurou live on.
So...if I save my father, then I can't save Yurou.
If I want to help Yurou live on, then I have to let my father be destroyed within the blood jade. Is that right?
Jiang Shili and Yurou, you can only choose one.
This-! What kind of choice is that?
On the one side, it's the one he loves, and on the other side, it's his father!
How is Yunfan to choose?
Junior Master Cao Gu, this is a question that no one can answer!
That also means that Junior Master Cao Gu doesn't have a full guarantee that she can save Yurou, right?
Yes.
If there is a way to try, then it's better than not having one!
That's just a way of saying, not doing.
You can't have Yunfan not care about his father's life to save Yurou!
Then he can't disregard Sister Yurou's safety!
Jiang Yunfan. I don't care how you think.
But I am Yurou's teacher. I watched her grow up.
I cannot let her die and not interfere!
As for Jiang Shili, he harmed the human realm and deserves punishment!
Think about it well. In these years, the one who stayed by yourself to help you,
was it Yurou or the demon king father that you've never seen before?
Yurou is inside resting right now at the verge of death.
She's waiting for you to save her!
Junior Master, you can't say that. No matter what Jiang Shili did in the past,
he's still Yunfan's birth father!
One side is his father and the other side is his lover!
Both are just as important!
You can't force him to compare and make a choice like this!
Yunfan's father and I...
only one can be chosen.
How could it be like this?
As a teacher, you only know how to drink wine!
What time is it now?
Yunfan has to face the world's hardest choice!
You're not even helping your pitiful disciple!
As a teacher,
even I don't know how to choose.
How do you expect me to help my disciple?
There are two things hard in this world. Whatever you choose is right,
and it is also wrong.
Besides, I've never chosen right.
This time, no one can help him.
That's right, Junior Sister. Is there wine to drink at your place?
Bring some for me to drink.
J-junior sister!
Why is she being so petty?
In life, one needs wine to become intoxicated.
But how can one drop bring us closer to the Nether World?
Junior Master Yu Shu.
Yunfan, I cannot be of help to you, nor is it possible for me to help.
Please go back.
Junior Master Yu Shu! Why are you kicking us out without even asking?
Don't you want to ask for a way to save both Jiang Shili and Yurou?
Isn't that right?
Junior Master, it isn't right for me to come here.
But under the circumstances, I beg for Junior Master's forgiveness
and tell me a way to fix this problem.
Yunfan. Jiang Shili is your biological father. It's natural that you'd save him.
But don't forget.
He's not only your father. He is also the Clean Sky Sect sect leader who harmed the world.
I cannot help you with this problem.
I don't know how to. Even if I knew,
I wouldn't let the tiger return to the mountain and free the Clean Sky Sect sect leader who harmed the human world.
Why? Because he's the sect leader of the Clean Sky Sect?
So he doesn't even get a chance to redeem himself?
Teacher, I didn't think you'd be the same as everyone else,
only know black and white, can't differentiate between right and wrong.
Yu Shu isn't failing to differentiate between right and wrong.
He's just worried that the world
will innocently suffer because of one person's ambitious heart.
But Senior Brother, today's matter has to do with Yurou's life.
Yurou came to be Senior Sister Cao Gu's disciple since childhood. She's kind and gentle.
She persistently used medicine to help others in all these years. She's done many good things.
Her life shouldn't be cut short.
Junior Sister.
If you know a way to save her, you should say it!
You shouldn't watch someone die and not do anything.
Actually, the blood jade is a treasure made from Nv Wa's own blood.
How can we know what to do with it?
But...
since it's from Nv Wa, if you beg Lady Nv Wa,
perhaps you can find a way that hasn't been recorded.
That's right! We can just go back to Miao Jiang to ask my teacher!
Yurou still has some time. It's enough for us to go to Miao Jiang and back!
Thank you for your hint, Junior Master. No matter what the method is, I will give it at ry.
Yunfan, remember. If Jiang Shili tries to do anything wrong,
I definitely will not sit and do nothing.
Yes, I remember it in my heart.
Thank you.
I only said what I should say.
I didn't intend to help you.
I know.
Thank you, Ling Yin.
Everyone has been troubled by my illness. I will be away for a while. Please do not worry about me. YuRou.
Junior Master Cao Gu, is Yurou here?
She left.
What? She left?
To prevent you from being caught between her and your demon king father, she left.
I'll find her right now!
Stop! It's meaningless to look for her.
I know her personality best. No one can change what she's decided on.
Yunfan, the best plan now is for you two to go to Miao Jiang
and find a way to meet both ends. Then you can persuade her to come back.
Xiao Man is right. Let's hurry to Miao Jiang.
Okay. Junior Master Cao Gu, goodbye.
Let's go!
What? Yu Shu wants you to come and ask Lady Nv Wa about the blood jade?
Yes. Junior Master Yu Shu says that the blood jade is from Nv Wa.
Of course we have to ask Lady Nv Wa.
Madam Hai Tang, this has to do with life and death.
I hope you will help us.
Okay. I knew that this day would come.
But, I didn't think that it'd come so soon.
Xiao Man, this is Nv Wa Tribe's sacred heirloom, Heavenly Serpent Staff.
I'll give it to you now.
With it, you can have the power to summon Nv Wa.
But, from now on, you have to start taking up responsibility for the Nv Wa tribe.
Are you willing?
I know. I understand the responsibility of being Nv Wa's descendant.
I know my choice now. I am willing.
Xiao Man, from today on, you have to take up the responsibility to protect the human realm.
You may have to sacrifice for the human realm.
Teacher, I'm not a child anymore.
I can definitely take up responsibility for the Nv Wa tribe.
Xiao Man, I'm sorry.
It's okay! This is the responsibility I had to take to start with.
Stinky Long You, why do you look so down?
Is there something you want to say to me?
I won't be able to praise you, if that's what you want.
What else can I say?
Teacher, let's go to Nv Wa's temple right now.
In the future, my statue will be here too.
Is it really meaningful to be a descendant of Nv Wa?
It's not like just anyone can be a descendant of Nv Wa.
This is a responsibility passed down. This was my fate.
This is what the heavens set and cannot be changed.
Sacrificing the little me to save the whole world.
My destiny was always to sacrifice myself to save others.
Okay, let's stop talking. I have to start using magic.
Lady Nv Wa.
Xiao Man. Why have you summoned me?
Lady Nv Wa, the Nv Wa blood jade's twenty year deadline is near.
Is about to fully destroy the Clean Sky Sect's sect leader, Jiang Shili.
If the blood jade is broken, after Jiang Shili is saved,
will the person who depends on the blood jade to live definitely die?
If the blood jade is broken,
the sealing power will naturally disappear.
This is something that cannot be stopped.
Lady Nv Wa, is there not a way to fulfill both ends?
It's not like there isn't.
It's just...
It's just what? Lady Nv Wa, please tell me!
Long You, can you hear anything?
It seems like something is wrong.
Don't panic. Wait for Xiao Man to come out first.
Xiao Man. What did Lady Nv Wa say?
Xiao Man. Xiao Man, what's wrong?
Is there no way to fulfill both ends?
Not that...There is a way to rescue both Jiang ShiLi and YuRou called NiTian Ritual (Defiance of the Natural Order Ritual).
It's just...
It's just what? As long as I can do it, I will definitely do it!
No, you'll die!
You have to become the sacrifice of the three divine objects.
You have to use your blood to continue the blood jade's spiritual power!
Nothing can happen to Yurou.
I must save my father.
Yunfan, what do you intend to do?
Xiao Man... about NiTian Ritual... please do it.
Have you gone crazy? How could I do such a thing?
Xiao Man. This is the best choice.
Yunfan. You want us to watch you die
and then take this guilt for life?
Long You.
To restore the waterways, your older brother put his life on the line.
So what if I make a sacrifice for the one I love? Shouldn't a man take responsibility?
Yurou should have gone back to Tang Manor.
What?
Since you've already made your choice, you have little time left with her.
Go on. Go find her.
Leave Xiao Man's persuasion to me.
I'll leave Xiao Man to you.
The young mistress still didn't eat anything?
Yes. She wouldn't let me tell you.
She doesn't want you to worry.
Daughter, why be like this?
You can't go in! Hey!
Okay, you can leave.
Yes.
Chief Tang,
I have come because I have something to say to Miss Tang.
Is she here?
Yurou isn't in the manor.
Please go back.
Chief Tang, I know YuRou is here in the manor.
That's right. She did come back! So what?
I once thought that you'd treat her well if I left Yurou to your care!
But what did you do?
She's gone now, and you still have the face to come ask me?
Do you know how painful and sad her return was?
Chief Tang, this is my bad,
It's my fault!
Since you've already decided to save Jiang Shili,
He is your father, so there's nothing I can say!
But Yurou is my daughter!
I won't allow anyone to hurt her anymore!
Chief Tang, I know I have disappointed you,
But I've never thought of doing anything to harm Yurou!
You've done it. You've already done it!
Earlier, because I missed Yurou,
I once went many times to Mt. Shu.
I saw you two playing and fighting together.
Yurou's face had happiness and a smile that I've never seen before.
It also had the life that it never had before.
I secretly watched,
not daring to bother you two.
I so hoped that you could give Yurou a happy future!
But you? You've already pushed her onto the path to death!
I know I broke Yurou's heart.
But, Chief Tang, I never meant to destroy the blood jade
to have Yurou sacrifice for me.
Since it's like this, you still want to go save your father?
Do you know why Yurou came back?
She's afraid that you'd be caught between a rock and a hard place. Do you understand?
Okay. I don't want to say it anymore.
Go back.
Chief Tang! I came here today because I want to tell YuRou that
I've found a way to lengthen her life!

Chief Tang, I went to Miao Jiang and found a way that would not sacrifice the Blood Jade
in order to rescue Jiang Shili by invoking the NiTian Ritual.
Not only can it save my father, it will also protect the blood jade and save Yurou.
NiTian Ritual?
This is a way to fulfill both ends.
Please let me see Yurou first. I can swear to the heavens
that she'll definitely return to your side to take care of you. Please believe me.
Xiao Cui. Don't tell the Young Miss that he's here.
The Old Master told me not to tell,
so I won't tell you that the Young Miss went to Cang Mu Mountain
to Ape Crying Peak, the place you two first met.
Cang Mu Mountain... Ape Crying Peak...
Thank you Miss Xiao Cui!

Yurou. I will definitely do what I promised you.
No one will die either.
As long as you are by my side,
there is hope for everything.
Yunfan.
Don't put yourself in a hard spot for me anymore.
My twenty years of life are about to end.
I've already prepared myself.
You and your father can be reunited.
To me, this is also some comfort.
Yurou. Have you thought about it?
Do you really think I won't blame you if you leave like this?
I really can.
I'm okay.
If I told you
that I've already found a way to fulfill both ends?
...
What is it?
Don't lie to me.
Yurou.
That's right.
I, Jiang YunFan,
I have lied to many people. But among those people,
you have never been included.
We have found a solution to both problems. Long You and Xiao Man are making preparations at Fen Tian Ding.
Really?
Really.
Yurou.
I'm not very able.
But if I can, after this is over,
let's make a fortress here too.
When that happens, be my fortress wife, okay?
Wherever you are, there is hope.
Of course I am willing.
Okay.
Then for today, let us have a practice drill of what our future will be like, shall we?
I'll take you to a place.
♫ 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 ♫
Hurry and come in.
I've come to Ape Crying Peak so many times, yet I've never found this place.
It's also the place where your parents lived.
Yes. I grew up here and didn't even know Jiang Shili once lived here.
Yurou.
I never thought that he personally made this mask either.
Did you draw all of these?
This is...?
-A pig?-A tiger.
It's a tiger?
It's a tiger.
Then the chicken next to it-
Sigh.
Yurou, that's a phoenix.
Oh.
Phoenix?
It doesn't look like one?
It does.
Then what are these lines for?
These lines are what my mother drew to measure my height.
Three years old, four years old, five years old.
You were so tall when you were three?
No. When I was little and my mother took my height, I liked to stand on top of a chair.
My mother couldn't argue with me, so she just let me do as I wished.
Every time when my mother finished,
I wanted to lift my head to look at her, hoping that I could hurry and grow up.
And protect her well.
That's because you are a boy.
As I grew up,
the clothes my mother made for me couldn't keep up.
Every time when I was mischievous and ripped my clothes,
my mother would use these needles and thread to mend them.
Let me do it. This is a woman's specialty.
♫ 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 ♫
♫ How should I choose to start so that I could end it well ♫
♫ How should I change my fate so that I won't leave any regret ♫
♫ Will the different roads we chose lead to the same destination? ♫
♫ Who are those people we found ourselves to be? ♫
♫ So much joy; so much sorrow ♫
♫ Whether we laugh or cry, we'll miss them all ♫
♫ How many are awake; how many are drunk ♫
♫ Does it matter whether or not our dreams are real ♫
♫ No matter how I choose to start, I must end it well ♫
♫ No matter how I change my fate, I have no reason for regret ♫
♫ It doesn't matter whether or not our roads will lead to the same destination ♫
♫ At least I've already let go of who I am ♫
