[Episode 29]
Timing and Subtitles brought to you by the Subbers of the Destiny @ Viki
She is the only student in Lishan Academy who knows what I did in Zhou Garden.
I cannot let her wake up.
No. What's wrong with me?
That's Qi Jian! My little Junior Sister.
Princess, look.
Chen Changsheng and Xu Yourong have indeed arrived into our territory.
They probably haven't gotten far.
That's great. Right into our hands.
Pass down my order: Search everywhere.
From here to the Sacred Capital, don't allow even an ant to pass through.
Yes!
Be careful!
I still remember the first time I saw you in the Sacred Capital.
You had this kind of nervous look.
But no one's seen the Saintess currently in dire straits.
In front of you, I'm just Xu Yourong and not some Saintess.
If this weren't the Demon Clan's boundaries,
I'd really want to stay and live here to see the real you everyday.
Then in the future, I'll always let you see the real me.
But if you have demons in your heart, you can be possessed wherever you are.
Well said.
Sometimes, I ponder, what is the boundary between Human and Demon?
Qiushan Jun's sudden assassination in the Zhou Garden,
at the time, I really couldn't distinguish whether he was Human or Demon.
Then, are you certain the one you saw at the time really was him?
Yes. That hand of Lishan swordsmanship
cannot be impersonated by the Demon Clan.
I don't want to believe it.
I'm not willing to believe either.
If the Demons were able to put a spell on him,
all of us would have difficulty avoiding it.
On the surface, there must be a reason.
Once we get back to Shendu and find Qiushan Jun, all will be revealed.
Yes. I believe he will give us a reasonable explanation.
Little Junior Disciple, you've finally woken up.
Second Senior Disciple.
Little Junior Disciple, you recuperate peacefully.
That traitor Chen Changsheng, I will make sure justice is served.
No, it's not him.
Chen Changsheng isn't a traitor. He's a good person.
Qi Jian! Has the illness confused you?
It was Chen Changsheng who saved me. This is a misunderstanding.
The one who really wanted to kill me was Senior Disciple.
Qijan! You have to take responsibility for what you say.
Everything I say is true.
Senior Disciple was the one who wanted to assassinate Chen Changsheng.
You can't slander Chen Changsheng.
If it weren't for him, I would've lost my life ages ago.
I need to go find him. I need to go find him!
Qi Jian!
Little Junior Disciple, both Senior Disciple and Zhuang Huanyu personally saw Guojiao Academy liaise with the Demon Clan.
Compared to your sleeptalking during sickness, I believe their character more.
But... But Chen Changsheng really wouldn't go so far as this.
Could the Zhou Garden,
could the Zhou Garden really make people lose their minds?
Second Senior Disciple.
She has yet to recover from a serious illness. You must look after her and not let her out of the room.
Senior Disciple seems to always be shouting about something.
Regardless of what she says, don't spread anything.
I don't wish to hear any gossip.
You stay on guard here. I will send another two disciples to come and look after her with you.
Yes.
How long are you planning on hiding it from me?
I just don't want you to worry.
You not telling me, will make me even more worried.
How much longer do we have?
An entire lifetime.
You don't want me in our next lives?
Originally, I thought this time, I'd die in the Zhou Garden.
Look,
God is so good to us.
This must be providence. The basis of my practice is Emotionless Great Dao,
which emphasises cutting all feelings and desires. Nothing deep inside.
Yet now, an extra moment with you, is a moment earned.
Then this Great Dao of yours is emotional and moving, in the future...
Great Dao connects the sky. In the future, it will awaken itself.
Is having emotions deep within not Great Dao?
I'm begging you Mo Yu.
This time you must help Guojiao Academy.
How do I help you?
You know that in the Great Zhou, the biggest crime is liaising with the Demon Clan.
Also, Qiushan Jun and Lishan Sword Sect, their positions play a decisive role.
How can I not listen to their proof?
The whereabouts of Changsheng and Yourong are unknown and Guojiao Academy is facing a catastrophe.
Mo Yu, you are the only one I can ask for help right now.
You, Tang Thirty-Six even has time to beg others?
People have to grow up.
Besides, you aren't just anybody.
Then who am I?
You are one that I trust, like my friends in Guojiao Academy.
Friends I can die with.
Fine.
This must be little Rong'er's life star.
I don't know what will be the destiny of the Emotionless Great Dao that you practice.
Something's wrong! Why is Yourong's life star so dim?
Could it be that she has received a great injury but is hiding it from me?
Let me try to use the method recorded in the Star Map,
using my life star to influence her life star's trajectory
and assist her life star in recovering it's shine.
It succeeded.
So this is the secret of the Star Map.
To save one person, you have to sacrifice another person's life.
If I need others to sacrifice for me, I wouldn't be able to accept it.
No matter who.
No matter what, for Rong'er...
I am willing to give up changing my destiny.
My life star seems to have changed trajectory.
Changsheng... Changsheng wake up.
Changsheng.
What's wrong with you?
What did you do?
How did it become like this overnight?
It's nothing.
Did you, for me...
Today, it would be best if you don't use your spirit, lest my effort is wasted.
Changsheng, I don't want you to do it for me.
Then I'll do it for me.
Trust me. There will be a new way out.
Now you seem much better. It looks like you should persist in drinking the medicine.
Dangbie Mountain's red stone fruit should be ripe.
Senior Disciple wants to eat them?
Then I'll go buy them for Senior Disciple right now.
Only, they commanded that...
I know, I know. I can't leave Lishan grounds even half a step, right?
I'll be good. Go quickly.
Okay.
- Junior Disciple Qi Jian. - Senior Disciple.
No, you're no longer my senior disciple.
In the Zhou Garden, you liaised with the Demon Clan and tried to assassinate Chen Changsheng.
Is the poison in your body breaking out again?
I really never imagined this. You and I are like brother and sister.
Everyone always goes along with you.
Usually you're already so headstrong, but this time you're making so much trouble.
Do you still remember the Lishan Sword Sect's rules?!
Junior Sister Qi Jian!
Put down you sword. How could you be so rude to Senior Disciple?
Junior Sister Qi Jian is really possessed!
She even wants to kill me.
Senior Disciple Hanshi, don't be fooled. He secretly communicated with the Demon Clan.
Little Junior Disciple, we can discuss this through.
Forget about it!
Qi Jian!
Guards!
Senior Disciple Han!
I really don't know what kind of bewitchment Junior Sister Qi Jian is under.
If she continues to persist,
is she really going to betray Lishan Sword Sect?
Senior Disciple, Little Junior Disciple has always liked you. Don't take it to heart.
When she's cured, she'll definitely regret today's events.
Rest assured. How could I argue with her?
Out of all the Lishan disciples, I spoil her the most.
It seems this time, she has really been poisoned by the Demon Clan.
I hope we can quickly find the cure and save her.
I will take good care of her.
I heard this time's Zhou Garden incident was caused by the Guojiao Academy.
I heard their principal, Chen Changsheng, was too scared to come back.
There must have been some tricks.
I've also heard their principal Chen Changsheng is of an unknown origin.
Maybe he's the root of trouble from the Demon Clan.
Right, right.
Do not let me hear you talking bad about my teacher again;
otherwise, do you see this table?
Qi Jian's wounds are still not healed.
You take good care of her
Also, if she recently said anything
- you must not spread it. - Okay.
Brother Hanshi.
Why is young master Tang here?
A while ago, I saw that Qi Jian was unconscious, so I came to see how she was.
Qi Jian has fully recovered. Thank you for your concern.
Really?! That's great! Hurry and bring me to go see her.
She is still resting so she is in no place to be seeing anyone right now?
I will pass on your good intentions.
Didn't you just say she was all better?
Why can't I see her?
Recently, Qi Jian's mood isn't that good. She must have been provoked.
She is unwilling to see outsiders.
She won't see outsiders?
It's all right. We have a good relationship.
I'm going to go see her.
You are too out of line! This is our Lishan Sword Sect's domain.
Brother Hanshi, I'm just going to see a good friend.
Stop pestering. She has said that she won't see visitors.
You're too harsh.
All right. Forget about it.
See him out.
Luo Luo.
Such a coincidence. You're also here.
Yes. I came here to visit Qi Jian, but he won't let me.
He won't let you see her?
Listen, this is the rule of Lishan Academy. When Qi Jian come to the White Herbs Garden,
you can see her anytime you wish.
What? White Herbs Garden?
That's great!
The Empress always says that I don't like studying.
Therefore, Qi Jian is clever and sensible. She must be able to influence me to study as well.
You're right.
So, I came here today to take Qi Jian as my tutor.
- Today I am making a special trip to pick her up. - Princess Lou Lou, this...
Gou Hanshi, the Empress has ordered me to come get her.
Please get her for me.
Your Highness, Qi Jian is still injured. This is inconvenient.
- The Great Empress made an edict herself. Do you still wish to resist it? - I--
Besides, my White Herbs Garden has lots of panacea.
- How could we not heal her? - This...
Gou Hanshi, today's events,
you have to permit it.
Even if you do not want to, you still have to.
If you don't want to accept this,
go tell the Empress yourself.
Your Highness, this...
Empress!
What trouble did you get into this time? You're so flustered.
I didn't.
Just now, when I went to the Lishan Sword Sect to get Qi Jian,
she was already a prisoner.
Really?
Also, if it were not the edict you gave me, I definitely couldn't have taken her.
You didn't look like you were looking for a tutor anyway.
Empress, this time you definitely need to give my teacher justice.
Qi Jian said it herself that the real spy is Qiushan Jun.
He was the one who shifted the blame onto my teacher.
Things are getting more and more interesting.
Your Majesty, hurry and make an order for people to catch the whole Lishan Academy.
There is still no prospect of a solution now.
Don't worry so much. I know what to do.
But Empress, the Lishan Sword Sect all...
This case is complicated.
Only when Chen Changsheng and Xu Yourong come back to Shendu,
the truth will be revealed.
We don't even know where my teacher is right now.
I used the Star Formation to check their stars.
They are in the Demon territory.
Naturally, in no time, they will come back.
The Demon territory? That is so dangerous!
Their martial arts and wisdom are at top level.
Even if there is any obstruction, they will turn danger into safety.
Don't worry about this anymore.
Go back.
To think that if they know of our whereabouts,
they will be able to anticipate us appearing in the wild mountainside.
But they don't know we act in a diametrically opposite way. It's a safe plan.
Miss Xu is so clever. I had a great lesson.
You have to persevere. We have to get back to Shendu.
I will beg the Empress to help.
I think that she will definitely have a way to help you.
Don't worry.
For you, I will definitely keep on living.
There is a water source in front, we can rest there.
You can also recover a little.
I can still hold on.
Let's go.
You messaged me to come. Perhaps something big is about to happen.
Chen Changsheng and Xu Yourong are still alive.
Don't worry. I will end their lives.
No. You cannot kill Chen Changsheng.
Oh? What's the reason?
This person is useful to me. You must preserve his life.
It looks like this youngster has an unusual origin.
- You even stepped in personally to save his life. - I guess...
You have to promise me that he won't be harmed on the way back to Shendu.
In this world, I am not the only one who wants to kill him.
As long as it's not you. If anyone else wants to kill him, it won't be an easy task.
What if I don't promise you?
You must promise.
Are you ordering me to?
Don't forget that I am just collaborating with you.
This youngster is involved in my plans.
If things work out, the Demon Clan will receive everything that you guys want to have.
- If not... - What?
If he dies, your identity will be revealed to the whole world.
You are a smart person.
You know what to do.
You dare to threaten me.
Fine. I promise I won't hurt him.
But if he doesn't have the fate to come back, it is not my fault.
Master, there's a letter from the military advisor.
Chen Chansheng and that damned Phoenix are on the main street.
But Master won't let us kill them.
We want to lure them to Yao Lu Feng.
I don't know what Master's plans are.
There has never been problems with the military advisor's calculations.
Master, what should we do?
Follow Master's instructions.
I want to watch how they struggle.
Sir, your complexion doesn't look so good.
I have top quality medicine. Do you two have interest in taking a look at it?
My illness. Is there is any medicine in the world that can heal it?
What if what he says is true?
What? Do you two not believe in my medicine?
It is a miracle medicine.
Thank you for your kindness.
My sickness can't be cured by ordinary medicine.
There is no uncurable sickness in this world.
Even if my medicine can't cure it, I know of a place that has magical medicine that can even revive dead people.
Where is it?
You two don't know.
Ten kilometers from here, there is a Pill Furnace Peak.
There, it is where the mainland's number one alchemist Zhou Dufu's refining place is.
Think about it. What kind of powerful spirits are gathered there?
Zhou Dufu?
I heard that Zhou Dufu hid a medicine furnace in there. It can refine excellent medicine.
I've looked for it a few times before. However, it's a pity that I don't have the destiny.
I see you two must be some cultivation elites.
Your illness, if the ordinary herbs don't work,
why not go there and take the chance?
Then...
It's more important to head back to Shendu.
Don't trust some random person's words and delay our schedule.
Where are we going?
Yao Lu Feng.
Don't you often say that if you don't try it, how would you know?
Since it's Zhou Dufu's old haunt, there's nothing bad to pay it a visit.
Sometimes, I really wish that you could just leave me and go back to Shendu yourself.
Don't you dare think about abandoning me.
Let's go.
Taste it.
Does it taste good?
Is this Dan Purple Fruit?
I took an order from the Great Empress to the Demon clan's place to find clues for the key of Zhou Garden.
I couldn't avoid sheltering in the bitter cold places.
So, I needed to store some wild fruit in the Tong Arrow.
Give it to me.
It tastes horrible. How could you say that it tastes good?
Everything you give me tastes good.
All right, then I'll go get some more wild fruit. Wait here for me.
Why can't I taste things?
Changsheng you need to remember this.
When you're dying, your five senses will gradually disappear.
If you have these symptoms, then you are not far from death.
I hope you can quickly find a way to change your destiny,
and never have that day appear.
What Master said about the loss of the 5 senses...
Don't tell me...
It should have the Lingxi Gen component. It should've been sweet.
Why...
That's strange. It has no flavor.
The loss of the five senses Master spoke about has finally appeared.
My sense of taste has already disappeared.
Try this one.
It tastes good.
What? The fruit is not fresh?
Maybe it's too damp here, resulting in a rotting smell from the fruits.
Also try this.
- What's the taste? - It's sweet.
This is noon potato, the most spiciest kind.
How could it be sweet?
What are you hiding from me?
- I... - Have you lost the sense of taste?
I don't want you to worry.
Why?
How did it become like this?
After the fight in the Zhou Garden, it probably hurt my meridian.
So, I lost my sense of taste, but it's not a big deal.
When my injuries recover, my sense of taste will also come back.
Don't worry.
Qi Jian!
I knew you hadn't slept yet, so I specially brought some products girls use.
Look. Some clothes, mirrors, and makeup.
There's also our Beast Clan's comb. It's really amazing.
Because it's made of a Bi Si Yao's branch.
One is only made every one hundred years.
Where is Chen Changsheng?
I want to see him.
The blood-drop necklace?
Do you still remember? You gave it to me when we were young.
You've kept it all this time.
Strange. Why haven't I seen you wear it before?
Because it's in this.
The Tong Arrow is powerful in trapping enemies, and is a tensile defending tool.
We can even hide in it at critical moments.
It's just not that big like the Pope's Green Leave World.
Tong Arrow is the only one of its kind on the Weapons Chart.
I didn't know it could do that.
The Tong Arrow is full of Fire Intent.
Even if I thew it into the Fire Gully at Luoyang Academy, it wouldn't be damaged in the least.
I've kept all the things that we played with when we were children.
Really?
However,
now there is no need.
- No need? - Yes.
Because, what is most precious is already in front of me.
- Are you all right? - Yes.
- I'll carry you. - There's no need. I'm all right.
Here.
I want to carry you like this for my whole life.
I don't want you to carry me like this your whole life.
I also think that this may be our happiest moment.
I worry that when I put you down, I will lose you.
Listen to me. There's no end to a road.
So, we will keep on walking.
It will be as long as we want it to be.
Yourong, this world is balanced.
When you gain something, you will lose something.
You cultivate yourself for the Great Cause, and will inherit the Star Formation one day.
You will gain the greatest power in this world.
However, you cannot love someone else.
Otherwise, it'll backfire.
Are you prepared to assume the responsibility for that kind of consequence?
Even if I lose all of my skill,
I am willing to assume responsibility for the consequences.
Qiushan, you are possessed. Qiushan, you are possessed!
Qiushan, you are possessed.
I didn't mean to kill you.
I wanted to kill Black Robe.
I'm sorry.
Changsheng, look. Yao Lu Feng is right over there.
Changsheng, look. This is the Demons' local fruit, Zhuyan Fruit.
The plant bears fruits once every three years. It's very sweet. Try it!
It's very sweet.
Changsheng...
Even if I don't have my sense of taste,
I can still smell its fragrance, and sense its fleshy and juicy texture.
So, I know that it is very sweet.
I'm sorry.
I forgot that you couldn't taste things.
Rong'er, did you know that
with you by my side, my heart feels like it's being watered by honeydew everyday;
- sweet to the greatest degree. - But...
Did you know?
Some people we will only meet once in our lifetime
and that's already the greatest luck.
But I am able to stay by your side every day,
so, I am really, really lucky.
I am, too.
Be careful.
I'm okay. It's my first time climbing a mountain without using my spirit.
Now I finally know how hard it is for normal people to climb a mountain.
I used to regularly mountain climb back in Xining Town.
Speaking of, I remember picking medicinal herbs on the mountains with Senior Brother Yuren.
Even though it was physically challenging for Senior Brother, he still took care of me.
He really is a good person.
How about this. You don't have to yield to me. Let's compete to see
who can get to the top first.
- Rong'er - I'm going.
Junior Sister, where are you?
You must wait for me.
You must live.
What? Are you worried about the safety of Xu Yourong?
Who are you?
Don't bother about who I am.
I know what you want right now.
You dirty scumbag who hides face but shows tail.
You are unfit to know about what I am thinking about.
You really don't need to be hostile to me.
I am here to help you.
Help me?
Good. Then I'll see your true appearance.
Who are you?
Why do you have such strong power?
Just save some strength.
To test out the origins of my martial arts is not that easy.
What do you want to do?!
I just want to tell you one thing.
Xu Yourong is still alive. Right now, she is in the Demon Clan territory.
How do you know?
It doesn't matter.
The Demon Clan district is thousands of miles away from Shendu.
Xu Yourong's power is damaged, so she doesn't dare use her spirit recklessly.
The journey will be extremely hard.
If you're really worried about her safety,,
why don't you immediately go to help her out.
But the Demon Clan territory is so vast.
How am I supposed to look for her?
Yao Lu Feng.
Yao Lu Feng...
What's that sound?
This should be the Red Copper Umbrella's sound.
I assume it must sense the scent left by Zhou Dufu back then.
It seems that chemist didn't misinform us.
Heaven helps the worthy. Changsheng, you have hope.
This time, we didn't come here for nothing.
Even if we don't find the medicinal furnace, to be able to revisit Senior Zhou Dufu's old haunts is also a fortune.
How could we not find it?
Senior Zhou Dufu really is perspicacious.
This place gathers auras and has the most remarkable scenery.
It's a rare blessed spot in this world.
No wonder Zhou Dufu would hide the medicine stove here.
Look!
How could someone live in this wild and barren mountain ridge?
I presume this is Senior Zhou Dufu's former residence.
This place looks so clean.
It doesn't seem abandoned.
We should be careful.
Rong'er, are you okay?
I'm okay.
Who is trespassing on the magical mountain?
Who is this child?
What?! Child?!
You guys have no manners!
I am an old ancestor.
- You are... - Since you guys appeared here on your own,
it's just in time for me to put you into the medicinal furnace
and refine you all into medicine.
You're using people to make medicine?
Everything in the universe are my medicinal ingredients.
Human life is not something to value and cherish.
If I didn't think you guys were good quality,
I don't even want normal people.
No, no, no. We accidentally barged in here.
Right. We still have to hurry on our journey. Let us go.
Since you guys sent yourselves in here, then don't even think about me letting you go.
You seem very cute and kind.
You should be a good person.
Bootlicking even!
I'm telling you, bootlicking won't help.
Let's bring you out to play.
Other than this mountain, I don't want to go anywhere.
There's a lot of good things to eat and a lot of fun things outside.
You may have never seen any of it.
Like what?
Have you been to the Human Clan? There are flowers in the spring and snow in the winter.
There's also a city over there called Shendu; towering, magnificent and beautiful.
Inside are all shops of many different colors. It's full of fun things!
Shendu? I think Zhou Dufu has mentioned it before.
You know Zhou Dufu?
