Ashes of Love
Episode 50
Now, I'm like you, no more home to return to.
Your Highness, what you said is wrong. Before, when I was ordered by the former Heavenly Empress
to monitor the former Water Deity, I accidentally heard him say some words due to extreme emotions.
Only now did I understand them.
What words?
The place where my heart settles is where my homeland is.
The place where my heart settles...
is where my homeland is.
There's something that you probably don't know.
Several years ago,
I lost my parents, my tribe, my homeland.
Several dawns before, I didn't have the courage
to face the rising sun.
That time, the only thing that was supporting me to continue living is hatred.
But afterwards, after surviving numerous sleepless nights, I slowly understood
that my parents and tribes people risked their lives to ensure that I live
not for me to live in hatred, but to live a good life.
Because I'm their only hope. One person is the whole tribe. I must strive hard to continue living.
Hence, the thing that supported me to continue living up to now is hope.
Stop right there!
Where are you going?
It's none of your business. Why must I report it to you?
Acting so sneakily. Who knows if you're going to do anything that will harm Brother Feng?!
Liu Ying.
Don't make things difficult for Sui He. She won't do anything to harm me.
I'll go pick you some medicinal herbs.
Thanks.
Although she did merit by taking care of Brother Feng, she has this god-given talent of making people angry upon seeing her.
Okay already.
When I was deserted by everyone including my loved ones, when my body died and my soul extinguished, Sui He and you guys didn't leave me
and revived me. No matter what, I owe her my new life.
Brother Feng, just treat me, Mu Ci, and Royal Father as your family from now on.
Thanks. Let's sit down and talk.
Brother Feng, how do you feel?
Just okay.
How okay? Did your spiritual power increased or your appetite is better?
In your brain, other than eating and drinking, there's only fighting and killing. Can you think of other things?
Why think so much? Whether you're an immortal or a demon, what's important is living a pleasurable life.
Those words are well said.
Brother Feng didn't die despite such a huge disaster, so you surely will enjoy great blessings.
Here. It's helpful in increasing your spiritual power.
Vermilion bird egg?
You little sprite, you were born with a cold yin body and is only suitable to be nourished by water, but you went over your head to take in the egg of our spiritual bird Vermilion.
I'm a grape. I live on soil and not in water.
I thought a Vermilion is the relative of a pig, but never thought that it's a relative of fire.
Stop saying too much. You're making me dizzy.
Just for 300 years of spiritual energy, you almost lost your life. Stupid.
That Vermilion was even a gift from you when I went to greet Her Highness Heaven Empress on her birthday.
Thanks.
Brother Feng, what's wrong?
Brother Feng is fine. But, you've just recovered.
You still need to nurse your health. Remember, don't rush yourself during training.
Don't worry.
I've died once. This second life didn't come easy.
If I don't cherish it well, that's disappointing your kindness for saving me.
Run Yu is really so ruthless. As they said, the dead should be respected, yet he made such heartless acts.
Brother Feng is really pitiful.
I actually feel that this matter might be good for Xu Feng.
Understanding one's mind and true disposition. Directly being able to look at one's past. Only after seeing how everything should look like can one truly be reborn.
How come Brother Feng and you chatted? He clearly used to be closer to me. What did you two talk about?
Not much. Just some topics between men.
What topics?
If I tell you the topics between men, then it won't be between men anymore.
If you find it boring, go chat with Princess Sui He.
Her? Why would I? We surely won't see eye to eye on things. Why not just chat with you?
Mu Ci!
What's wrong with your hair?
Hair?
Mu Ci, do you know that I've always wanted a mature and stable man.
Good thing you have white hair. You now don't look like those little fair lads in the mortal world.
Princess, no need to console me.
I'm not. I really like it.
Actually, I know very well
that I will continue to age. Very soon,
I will be like a mortal. Age, get sick, and die. I will even...
...slowly forget you. Even so, will you still like me?
A cicada lives for 7 days. A mayfly lives at dawn and dies at dusk. Yet they all are living happily.
We have 10 years. Compared to them, we are already very fortunate.
Mu Ci, remember, no matter what changes you have,
we will face them together, okay?
Okay.
Your Majesty...I beg you. I beg you to let Xu Feng go.
Get up first.
I won't get up.
If you don't promise to let Xu Feng go, I won't get up. I beg you.
Must you do this?
I beg you.
Let Xu Feng go.
Okay. I promise you. Get up now.
Thank you, Your Majesty.
Mi'er...
Your Majesty, what could be your instructions for calling me this late?
Announce to the six realms that Fire Deity Xu Feng trespassed into the Past Virtuous Hall,
disrespected the Heavenly Emperor, and broke the laws of Heavenly Realm.
Hence, he's being removed of his deity status immediately
- and never allowed into the Heavenly Realm again. - This...
Yes, Your Majesty.
Kuang Lu!
Kuang Lu, what's this about?
- Who set up this enchanted barrier? - Deity, His Majesty is worried about you.
He couldn't dare to let you out and be in danger again.
While you haven't fully recovered, just be at ease and recuperate here in Xuanji Palace.
His Majesty has given and sacrificed too much for you.
Hope Deity can understand his painstaking efforts.
Kuang Lu, let me out!
Pretty lady, I was just drawing some pictures of beautiful women at home.
Don't know who has such huge grudge that she forcefully pulled me here.
What's wrong with you? Why are you standing here?
Be careful!
There's an enchantment.
Did Run Yu set this up? Is he crazy?
Can you break it open?
Pretty lady...how did you anger him?
Causing that guy to spend so much spiritual energy to set up such a strong enchantment.
Stop with your useless comments. I'm asking you, can you break it open or not?
But, I'll help you think of a way.
Oh, right, rumors are spreading outside that Xu Feng was revived in the Demon Realm. Were you the one who did it?
I knew it. Only you can do such a thing. No wonder
Run Yu is so mad that he announced to the six realms
that the deity status of Xu Feng is forever removed and that he can never return to Heavenly Realm.
So, he's so-called letting off...
...is this way.
He's already not that Night Deity who is indifferent to worldly affairs.
He watched how his mother died in the hands of Heavenly Empress.
After all, he and Xu Feng has a grudge of his mother's death between them.
Try to understand him a little.
Sometimes, when I think about it,
I really miss those first 100 years when I arrived here in the Heavenly Realm.
It's my first time to go up to the sky! I must have a good look at these beautiful scenery!
I'm not a demon. I'm a decent grape sprite.
- Put these— - Okay. Okay.
I know. I know. I'll eat them all.
Why did you use this kind of book as table support?
I'm punishing you to not sleep tonight. Study the Illusion Form Technique well. I'll check it tomorrow.
Whose immortal servant are you?
I dare not bear such high status. I'm just a half-immortal.
Half-immortal?
Only that little demon can make up her immortal level.
That time, I still didn't know about
bearing grudge for my parents' death. Didn't know about love, hate, anger, and infatuation.
I was just in Qiwu Palace being a little page boy,
making ink for Phoenix.
If you leave now, who will serve me tea and moisten my ink?
A page boy should act like one.
The zongzi of mortals isn't delicious.
My fresh flower cakes are a hundred times more delicious.
It dissolves immediately upon entering your mouth and isn't greasy. What do you think?
Okay.
Make zongzi filled with spiritual powers...
Care for flowers, plant some plants.
Cultivating without any distractions.
Proudly being a fruit sprite.
I even remembered that the Phoenix that time
is still an arrogant, conceited, high and mighty Phoenix.
In this world, may I ask you if there's anything that I fear?
And Little Fish Immortal is still that gentle and kind Little Fish Immortal.
My name is Run Yu. May I ask how I should address you?
I am Jin Mi.
I'll give you this red string. Hope you can have someone to accompany you in the future.
Thank you, Immortal Jin Mi.
Such beautiful times.
Too bad, we can't go back anymore. Now,
even the phoenix tree is dead.
What if you're given another Perishing Pellet, will you take it?
It was exactly because of that Perishing Pellet
that everything became how it is now.
I never regretted those days with Phoenix.
It's just that...I've wronged him.
It was me—
I'm not listening...!
Where are you going?
Who wants to listen about your past with that burnt crow?
I'm going to find someone to break open this lightning screen. I'm going now.
Thanks, Lord Puchi.

What's going on?
Your Highness.
Your Highness, what's wrong with you?
I might have rushed it too much. My breathing earlier wasn't stable.
I'll be fine. Don't worry.
Oh, right, I saw an announcement from the Heavenly Realm in the demon market earlier.
What announcement?
They removed your deity status and expelled you from Heavenly Realm.
Run Yu...is ruthlessly trying to exterminate you.
- Move aside! - You're not allowed to go in!
Do you know who I am?
- Move aside! - No one is allowed in.
Run Yu!
Run Yu, you better explain it to me clearly. Why did you remove the deity status of Xu Feng?
You already are the Heavenly Emperor. Why can't you be merciful and just let him go?
He's your biological brother. You already killed him once.
Baby Phoenix is a proud person.
Removing his deity status is more cruel than killing him.
How can you bear to do this?
Immortal, this isn't a place to talk.
Shut up.
Immortal, it was Xu Feng who trespassed into the Past Virtuous Hall and even used force against His Majesty.
He was pressured by you guys to do so. Baby Phoenix just came back to pay respect to his parents.
What right do you have to stop him?
Xu Feng pointed his sword towards His Majesty.
If not because Immortal Jin Mi intervened that time, His Majesty might have really been harmed by him.
Jin Mi? She again?
Did she help you go against Baby Phoenix again?
Yes, she helped me deal with Baby Phoenix again.
The two of them are impossible now. Uncle, you can give that thought up already.
You can't do this to him. Baby Phoenix...
...he never did anything wrong to you.
- Men! - Here!
- Who dares touch me?! - Take him away.
Yes!
- Run Yu... - Your Majesty.
Run Yu! Those demons in Demon Realm
all hate him to their guts. Not allowing him to return here to Heavenly Realm
is pushing him to death.
Run Yu, he's your biological brother!
Your Majesty, a guest wants to seek your audience.
From where did he come from?
King Biancheng.
Your Highness.
This announcement by Heavenly Realm...
...I'm sure you've heard of it.
My rebirth is heaven's will.
I surely will not waste it.
I will atone for the sins of my parents.
But for the grudges of killing my parents and killing me by Run Yu,
I will never forget them.
What are your plans?
Now, I'm not a deity, an immortal, nor a mortal.
In this vast world,
there actually isn't any place that can accommodate me.
I've already decided to become a demon
and duke it out with Run Yu.
I'm willing to help Your Highness.
We must make a meticulous and thorough plan to topple King Gucheng.
I've already prepared a surprise pawn and was just waiting for this moment.
We indeed caught Li Chuan. But earlier, in the prison,
he already died from the poison of the jiangzhu herb.
- Your Majesty. - Li Chuan?
Wrong. You're not him.
Your Majesty has wise eyes. He's Li Chuan's twin brother, Mo Ji.
Whether we can successfully fulfill our goal still depends on one person.
Princess, do you recognize this object?
Where did you get this seal?
When I followed His Highness to experience trials in the mortal world, by coincidence, I helped a mysterious person.
That person gifted me that seal.
That person promised me then that he can fulfill one wish of mine if I show him this item.
I only offered him an effortless help and am not asking for anything in return.
Also, I don't have any unfulfilled wish.
Why don't you just bring this item back to Demon Realm.
Maybe you'll bump into its master and return it to him.
Or maybe, you can ask him to help you for some emergency.
It's way more useful than being with me.
Lord Liaojun you were loyal all your life.
You planted a good seed before and earned Brother Feng a good fruit.
This serves as a comfort to your soul in heaven too.
Li Chuan?
You're still alive?
I escaped.
Since you're able to continue living, why still return?
I lived a hell-like life after. I don't understand.
I has always been infatuated with medicinal herbs and didn't compete with anyone for anything.
Why must you kill me? Why?!
You indeed have become an idiot from craziness.
Xu Feng has found out about your jiangzhu herb.
If you don't die,
will I wait for him to follow the clues towards me?
Without your plague needles from Qiong Qi,
how could I have bred those jiangzhu herbs?
You instead pushed all the blame to me and didn't care about my life!
So what if I did?
It was you who killed King Yancheng.
About that, I really have to thank you.
If not for your jiangzhu herb, how could I have killed the former Demon King?
Just for the Demon King position, you actually dared to kill a demon king
and even frame it to another person?
Good. You fully understood it.
Don't you know that the more you know, the faster you die?
Now, you can't even drag out an ignoble existence.
Stop!
Xu Feng? You indeed have been revived.
Mo Ji, thank you for helping me.
I'm duty bound to do it.
You two...
You earlier personally admitted that you've killed King Yancheng.
What else do you want to say?
That's right. King Yancheng was killed by me,
so what?
I'm now the Demon King.
What can you do to me?
I can't do anything to you,
but in your Demon Realm, there is someone who can.
Great Elder.
In our Demon Realm, how should murdering the Demon King
and framing a city ruler be punished?
Torn off into pieces and submerged into the River of Forgetfulness.
Since that's the case, just proceed with the punishment.
Great Elder.
As the Great Elder, I...
...in behalf of the 12 cities, I'm removing you from your Demon King position.
You all...
Xu Feng, I fell into your sinister plot.
King Qingcheng, please take over.
Thank you Fire Deity for supporting the Demon Realm.
Just let me handle the rest.
He still was able to escape.
It's fine. He's badly hurt. He can't run that far away.
[Fated Love Manor]
Moon Immortal.
Where's Moon Immortal?
He went down the mortal world.
Down the mortal realm?
[Yujiang Palace]
Great Elder, we wish you good health!
A few days ago, our Demon Realm experienced some power shifts.
I'm sure everyone already knows about it.
Now, the uprising has been pacified and the treacherous individual left in defeat.
But, the Demon King position is now empty.
Today, I asked everyone to come here
to nominate for a new Demon King.
I want to nominate King Biancheng as the new Demon King.
May I ask what everyone thinks about that?
King Biancheng can do it.
He can bear such heavy burden.
Great Elder, King Yancheng has died and King Gucheng left defeated.
Although I'm one of the three kings and am qualified to inherit the Demon King position,
I'm already old, so I fear that my strength can't catch up with my desire anymore.
I'm willing to recommend one person to bear such important responsibility.
Oh? Who do you want to recommend?
The previous Fire Deity Xu Feng.
Fire Deity isn't part of our clan. What right does he have to be the Demon King?
If Great Elder grant him some of his blood, won't that be enough already?
I'm in favor with it. In the numerous times we attacked the River of Forgetfulness in the past,
we've always been badly beaten by the army led by Fire Deity.
If he becomes our Demon King, he surely can strengthen our Demon Realm.
By doing that, won't we be offending the Heavenly Realm?
Currently, our Demon Realm has suffered successive changes in power.
If Heavenly Realm attacks, I fear that it will be hard to resist them.
With the God of War with us, what's there to be afraid of?!
The Demon Realm and Heavenly Realm have always been independent of each other.
No such thing as committing an 'offense'.
Fire Deity Xu Feng have numerously helped us pacify disturbances here in the Demon Realm. We owe him debts of gratitude.
He also once saved my life. I also owe him a favor.
Fire Deity Xu Feng can inherit the Demon King position.
Fire Deity Xu Feng!
Timing and Subtitles brought to you by Gone with the Shirt Team @ viki.com
King Qingcheng.
Fire Deity Xu Feng, are you willing to become a demon and inherit the Demon King position?
Wait! Wait! Don't agree to it!
You mustn't take a no retreat path! Baby Phoenix!
I'm willing to become part of the Demon Clan. From now on, I will do my utmost best in serving the citizens of the Demon Realm and devote my life to it.
The giving of demon blood.
Baby Phoenix!
You need to think it through clearly!
You are the royal son of the heaven!
You really want to abandon your bloodline?
Have you made your decision?
Did you ever truly open your eyes
to see what the Heavenly Realm
was really like?
Did you ever consider
why the former Water Immortal was willing to marry Jin Mi to me,
instead of you? Why did I, a treacherous villain,
was able to successfully ascend the throne
by leading a rebellion? Why did nobody
in this giant Heavenly Realm grieve after your mother jumped off the Linyuan Stage?
It's not because I'm manipulative and autocratic. Instead, it's because of them!
They went against the tide, and they forsook their friends and allies.
Baby Phoenix!
Starting today,
I will become a member of the Demon Realm.
My past with the Heavenly Realm
has become to an end. I will have no more ties with them.
Receive the Demonic Chu.
Demon King, please rise.
Baby Phoenix!
The heavens are helping the Demon Realm. Long live Your Majesty.
Baby Phoenix!
Your Majesty.
Is it news from the Demon Realm?
Fire Deity has become the Demon King.
I got it.
Fire Deity took such a provocative step.
He wouldn't declare war on the Heavenly Realm, right?
The current Xu Feng has changed.
Your Majesty means that...
You may leave now.
Xu Feng. Demon King.
No way. How could he?
All of you forced him into it!
It's all your fault!
You all pushed my Baby Phoenix into the Demon Realm.
It's all your fault!
My Baby Phoenix.
My Demon Realm has finally returned to the right path.
Lord Liaoyuan's spirit in heaven
must be sincerely glad to see Brother Phoenix
obtain the grand elder's blood.
People say that kindness will be repaid with kindness. Lord Liaoyuan lived a life of kindness.
Even the grand elder of the Demon Realm can experience his grace.
However, he died under the knife of his comrade in the Heavenly Realm.
Fate is so unfair.
The Demon King is very nostalgic. Although he doesn't say it,
he has yet to find a new person to replace Lord Liaoyuan.
It must be because he is still mourning over Lord Liaoyuan's death.
This pair of master-and-servant was able to begin well and end well.
That is rare to come by.
[Xuanji Palace]
Ever since Fire Deity became the Demon King, he started waging wars everywhere.
He has united all tribes of the Demon Realm, both big and small.
He even collected all the troops of King Gucheng.
King Gucheng is having it hard now. He's been in hiding all this time.
I heard that Fire Deity is the strongest Demon King in history.
He is highly respected.
This book illustrated by an artist of the Demon Realm is in great demand.
I used a year's worth of spiritual powers to trade a small demon for it.
I also heard that his face that is hated by both man and god
has caused all sorts of demonesses in the Demon Realm
to try every effort possible to get into Yujiang Palace to be his servant.
He, on the other hand, accepts everyone who offers.
Beauty, I think that
you should stop being sad over this fickle man.
Quickly coming into my embrace is the right choice.
I can't believe
that he became the Demon King. It's all because of me.
Because of me, he became a demon.
Don't blame yourself.
Although the Demon Realm isn't as gorgeous as the Flower Realm,
and not as dreamy as the Heavenly Realm,
it still is a place that'll accept him.
Also, I just told you
that he's currently the king of the Demon Realm.
Nobody can tell him what to do. He's very prestigious!
Don't worry so much.
Fine. It's enough that he's safe.
