Prologue
Eternal Night is approaching.
The desolate people began moving south.
The desolate people believed in the Demon Sect and was thought to be one with the King of Hades.
In the name of Bright Heaven's envoy,
Xiling could not allow any surviving member of the Demon Sect to set foot into Heavenly God's territory.
Demon Sect remnants dare to cross the border.
Leave and return to the north.
We will not go back!
We will not go back! We will not go back!

[Xiling Shrine]
Behold the Grand Priest of Light.
The northern sky appears to be strange.
Bitter cold invades and the dark night doesn't go away.
The desolate people are beginning to move south.
It is the Eternal Night.
Wei GuangMing, do not speak of those frightening words.
King of Hades attacking with the Eternal Darkness is all but a legend.
Originally yes. However I have personally seen the signs of the Eternal Darkness.
The Eternal Darkness is not just a legend.
Far up north is precise proof.
The arrival of Hades' Child.
When Eternal Night comes, the world will be engulfed in darkness.
We must kill the child of Hades in order to save Heavenly God's people.
Preposterous! Looks like your eyes are all dirty.
No matter what you look at will be dark.
Moyu, as the leader of the Justice Department, how many crimes and murders have you committed?
Have done many filthy things like slaughtering.
With what ability and right do you have to provoke my Temple of Light.
Don't tell me you've read the Heavenly book. Or that you understand Light more than me?
That's enough Wei GuangMing. Restrain your Heavenly splendor.
Wei GuangMing, where did you see the signs of Eternal Darkness?
The child of Hades is in the Tang Empire.
[Capital of Tang State]
[Lin Manor]
Hit it. Hit it.
Hit it.
- Ning Que, where did all these crows come from? - They are from Yan State.
How do you know that?
Those Yan thieves all wear armors with the same black color as the crows.
Your Highness!
Rear group. Arrange to face the enemies.
Calvarias come with me!
Front troops continue with me to escort the hostages.
- Advance! - Hurry save us!
- General Xiahou. - I'll go and help them.
Your horse is fast, you go help them.
You also becareful.
Little brother, run!
Run!!!
Brother!
Run!!!
Longqing!
Tuyang City, the Tang Empire.
The Emperor is here!
Emperor!
Get up.
Thank you, emperor.
Those who offend the Tang, we have to take actions no matter how far they are.
Yan State disturbed our borders. Soldiers, come with me.
Let's concur these thieves from Yan together.
We will win the war of Tang and Yan.
Win! Win! Win!
But today, I've heard that someone attached the prion chariot that the prince of Yan was in.
Was that true?
It was true, emperor.
If General Lin didn't interfere, I would have kept the princes.
General Xia, I am afraid that the arrow you shot was aiming to take their lives.
How many of our Tang's soldiers have died in battlefield.
What about their lives?
You are wrong, General Xia.
It is because of all the lives we lost in the battlefield that we don't have to take more lives from kids.
He is a prince from Yan!
We have one of those already.
Yan has been disturbing our borders.
The king of Yan had the guts to attack us with two young princes. How dare him!
I killed the king of Yan. I should've kill these two on the spot as well.
That's how it supposed to be.
General Xia, we've completed our tasks assigned from the emperor.
We've made a huge impact on those small states who are eyeing Tang.
Also, Tang has won the war. There is no need to kill more people.
General Lin, people die on the battlefield.
I could've had the Yan State with no royal descendants.
And you thinking killing is the only way to end all wars?
The Tang Empire can defeat any intruders.
We can also let them survive.
Zixian.
Here.
Bring Prince Chong Ming with us, and have the emperor decide what to do.
Yes.
- Bring the prince of Yang back! - Yes.
Heyah!
You were just being a woman.
You will get it once you become a father.
Forget it.
Generals, please stop arguing.
Let's just treat the prince as I let him go.
General Lin, you were right.
Our Tang Empire is not afraid of the enemies from outside.
We can have the people live their lives, too.
But, emperor...
This was between Yan and Tang, General Xia made great contribution.
Having General Xia guarding the northern border, the north of our Tang Empire would be very safe.
I am naming you the Lead General of the Noth.
Thank you, Emperor!
I am heading back to the capital today.
I wouldn't know when we will meet again.
The north is extremely cold.
Take care, everyone.
Travel safe, Emperor.
Take care, General Xia.
Thank you, my lady.
Take care.
Kneel!
Long live, my emperor.
Up!
Thank you, Emperor.
The prince of the Yan State is coming.
Greetings, the Emperor of Tang.
Up.
Thank you, emperor.
Your father has been disturbing our borders.
I brought the troops myself and defeated the Yan.
Just to protect our people and have them live their lives.
Now that you are a hostage here the Yan State, do you hate me?
No. Wars have winners and losers.
This war is testing the Yan. It's not the war's fault.
Once the Yan gets more powerful in the future, we will take back what we have lost.
Good.
Well said.
Such bravery, and realization in such a young age.
We will get educated with Yuer.
Study hard and learn our heart.
Thank you, Emperor.
Brother Chongming!
You don't want to leave her?
She is better in the palace than with me.
I am only asking if you want her or not.
No matter how beautiful you dance and how good the wine, they are no better than being understood by you.
The heavenly light! You are...?
Wei Guangming from Xiling.
So it is the Grand Priest of Light.
You are the heavenly god's messenger, why would you need to enter my military camp?
Please, leave quickly.
Today I came here specially for you.
Dare I ask if this counts as an important issue?
You came because of me?
Twenty years ago, the Demon Sect were chased north by the Xiling Army.
There was a young man and a young girl who escaped during the mess and wandered around for many years.
They covered their demon scent.
Maybe they themselves have forgotten their previous identity.
But they never thought that if drifting from place to place is only the start,
losing their souls would be the end of their lives.
That is the destiny that the Heavenly God gave them.
Grand Priest of Light, you really know how to create stories.
Xia Hou, for how long more will you hide?
In the world of the Heavenly God, the Demon Sect cannot exist with other people.
If anyone knew that members of the Demon Sect were hiding in Tang Empire,
and one of them has become a general...
There aren't any hidden demons or monsters here.
You will also not be able to find the people you are looking for.
The demon's world dance that this evil lady performed is the proof!
The Demon sect tricks. It doesn't really work.
Xia Hou, if you still refuse to admit your crimes, today she will not be the only one to die,
you and your loved ones who are hiding in the Tang Empire harem will die too.
What do you want me to do?
In the night, go and destroy the child of Hades.
The child of Hades?
Use this to apologise for your crimes.
Xiling will then protect this unspeakable secret of yours.
- Eunuch. - Yes.
Get some food for me.
Yes, Your Majesty.
Just now Royal Brother was so generous, I admire him.
I was looking at little Chongming.
I thought of our childhood years.
Royal Brother, you have a good heart.
It is the blessing of our Tang Empire citi-
Royal Brother!
Your Majesty.
Your Majesty! What happened to him?
Royal Brother's old headache is acting up again! Hurry and call the physician!
No need to call the doctors, I can treat his old sickness. Please leave us.
A person's life is in danger, Your Highness cannot be careless!
Imperial Physician!
Shut up! His Majesty is the life of Xia Tian.
I beg you to not think about it too much.
Leave!
This woman has such mystical power.
Li Peiyan.
Who are you?
Come with me.
Who are you?
Wei Guangming.
Li Peiyan pays his respects to the Grand Priest of Light.
Rise.
Look, what is over there?
There is a black cloud over the top of the city's east side.
What is below that black cloud?
Below the cloud is the child of Hades.
Xia Hou?
Why are you here?
Xia Hou, you tell him.
In the general's house below the black cloud, what is hidden inside?
The child of Hades.
Maybe it is him.
Maybe it is his family members.
How do you know this?
The black cloud has not dissipated in so long, that is evidence.
In visions of heaven, Hades keeps looking for the child he lost on earth.
Once he finds him, there will be an eternal night.
The arrival of the eternal night will plunge the world into darkness.
Every living thing will wither, life will be unable to continue.
The only way is to find the kid before the King of Hades does and kills him, then this eternal night will stop.
Once the eternal night is stopped, both father and son will have no choice.
Although you are a prince of Tang Empire, if you can destroy the child of Hades,
the name Li Peiyan will be forever remembered.
This is a huge matter.
No matter what, we must still report to His Majesty.
The Tang Emperor is the student of Fu Zi.
If you tell him, will he agree?
But without the agreement of His Majesty, no one would be able to touch General Lin.
General Xia Hou's return to the capital without orders is also a heavy crime.
If the Tang Emperor does not agree, then you are the Tang Emperor.
Reporting! General Lin Guangyuan arrives.
Grand Prince, for what did you ask me to come to here immediately?
How dare you, Lin Guangyuan. You dared to commit treason.
Sir Censorate, are you accusing me of treason?
Do you not want to admit your wrongs before you die?
There are both a confession as well as material evidence.
Chen Zixian.
Your Highness, Xuanwei General, Lin Guangyuan,
let the King of Yan, Long Qing go.
He committed treason.
I can serve as witness to his crimes.
Zixian, you-
These are the secret missives sent to you by the King of Yan.
They are the evidence.
I ask for Your Highness to verify the missive yourself.
Yan Suqin, you are framing me!
I've only fought the king of Yan on battlefields.
I've never wrote him.
My lord, please be fair!
The evidence definitely proves General Lin's betrayal.
Based on the law of Tang Empire, he should be executed.
Chen Zixian, you buzzard!
Let me see if any of you can kill me.
My lord, I am going to see the Emperor.
-General Lin. -General Xiahou.
My lord, General Linguangyuan is wronged!
[Lin Manor]
[Zeng Manor]
Who is it?
I'm a midwife.
Go on!
-Yes. -Go on!
You little brat, stop crying!
Something big is about to go down over there.
General.
Kill everyone! No exception!
Run!!!!
Help!!!
Run!!!
Don't kill me!
Run!
Don't kill me!
Help!
Chase them down!
The wife ordered me to kill you.
But you are still full of life after all.
Take this girl away. Leave the Tang Empire as far as you can.
-How is the Yan State? -Wherever!
Thank you, thank you!
(yells)
Don't be afraid, young master.
You! Come down, you!
Don't!
Help!
-Help! -I'm gonna kill you!
The son of the king of the Hades.
Yes.
General, what do we do with the bodies?
Burn them.
Got it!
Go away!
So damn wicked.
Three months later, the son of the king of Hades was still not found.
From then on, the Tang Empire lost a general.
The Serene Pavilion was keeping a Grand Preist.
A prince came from Xiling.
The young man from the general's house found a baby and a large black umbrella at the border of Tang and Yan
and walked into the Ming Mountains.
