Ashes of Love
Episode 36
There are indeed cracks.
Mi'er.
You actually gave everything to Xu Feng.
Do you know...that when I saw that dream vision that Yan Beast vomited out...
...seeing you two full of tender and romantic sentiments...
do you know how painful my heart was then?
I'd rather that you don't know about love in this life,
let you not love anyone,
let you be unable to love,
let you not love again.
Your Little Fish Immortal has lost everything.
He only has you now.
Don't leave me, okay?
Frost flower, why are you not minding me?
Don't you want to come out anymore?
- Liu Ying? - Jin Mi, I have a favor to ask.
Since you already borrowed Yan Beast from Immortal Jin Mi,
don't waste her good intentions. Stop hesitating.
I'm just a bit afraid
to see Mu Ci's past.
You have me by your side.
Greetings, Heavenly Empress.
Are Sui He and Xu Feng doing well?
Replying to Heavenly Empress, the two are both doing well.
They were safely born to the mortal world.
Immediately regain Sui He's memories,
so that the two of them can develop their feelings.
Yes.
What about Jin Mi?
Heavenly Emperor sent Immortal Xuan Ji to look after Jin Mi day and night.
I'm unable to find a chance to make my move.
Forget it. Let's delay it for a few more days,
to prevent Heavenly Emperor from suspecting me.
I understand.
Are you done making your Soul Destroying Arrow?
Replying to Heavenly Empress, the Soul Destroying Arrow requires blood from my bone to make.
It will require more effort. Hope Heavenly Empress can give me more time.
Fine. I'll give you a few more days.
Thank you, Heavenly Empress.
Do you still love me?
I do. I have always loved you,
and I've loved you for a long time.
But I'm now in love with someone else. You're now not an immortal nor a demon.
How can I be with you?
Why are you so silly?
Ever since, you're the only one that I love.
Never thought that the person controlling Mu Ci is Heavenly Empress.
She's going to hurt Jin Mi. No,
I must tell Jin Mi this matter and warn her to guard against Heavenly Empress.
Jin Mi.
Thank you for letting me borrow Yan Beast.
You're welcome. In the mortal world, if not because you did your best to help me,
I fear that I would be like Ruo Ruo where my soul will get destroyed and dissipated.
Don't know if Yan Beast was able to help that old friend of yours.
Jin Mi. To tell you the truth,
that person who used the Soul Destroying Arrow to kill Qiang Huo that day
is that old friend of mine.
His name is Mu Ci. He used to be a kind person.
Only because he was being controlled by someone, hence, he had no choice but to attack you.
If you can't forgive him, just count this debt on me.
No matter what you want to do, I'm willing to bear it for him.
Get up first.
Who is controlling your friend?
- Heavenly Empress. - Heavenly Empress?
I don't know why Heavenly Empress wants to hurt you. It's good that you're currently here in the Flower Realm.
Once you return to Heavenly Realm, you must be careful to guard against her.
Your Majesty, the counter effect of this Heavenly Silkworms are too strong.
Actually, there is a way to control the Corpse-Dissolving Heavenly Silkworms
from absorbing Mu Ci's energy.
Mu Ci is also a child that I've raised.
My affection for him is not inferior to Liu Ying.
I also can't bear to watch him suffer like this.
Your Majesty, I understand your feelings.
But the method to control these Corpse-Dissolving Heavenly Silkworms...
Royal Father, what must be done to control these Corpse-Dissolving Heavenly Silkworms?
Liu Ying, it's better that you don't know it.
Why?
Because this method will cause a huge loss to the energy of the person saving him.
I know that you won't mind losing your life just to save Mu Ci, but I don't want to see that happen.
Royal Father!
No... I don't want to. Don't...
Liu Ying, let go of him!
Quickly let go of him!
Let go of me! I'm going to save him! If he dies, I won't continue living too.
Silly child. If you forcefully give him your spiritual energy, you're just going to make him suffer more.
Royal Father, what then must I do to save him?
Royal Father, what are you doing?
Quickly assist him up.
The Corpse-Dissolving Heavenly Silkworms is incurable to begin with.
But the blood from the bone of someone with strong spiritual power can temporarily subdue the Corpse-Dissolving Heavenly Silkworms in his body
and decrease his pain.
It's just that after the person who saved him lost blood from his bone,
his spiritual power will abruptly decrease and he will feel unbearably tired.
I don't want you to risk danger before
because I was afraid that your body can't take it.
Royal Father.
Mu Ci is also a child that I've raised.
I know that you truly love him.
I only want to see you happy.
Royal Father, I'm unfilial.
I know that while Xu Feng is under restriction, that Jin Mi has secretly went to Qiwu Palace.
We were unable to eliminate that little seductress while she's in the mortal world.
Now, her relationship with Xu Feng has greatly increased.
If you could have worked harder, things wouldn't have progressed to this.
I've disappointed you.
Okay already. Sit.
And that Run Yu, in front of other people,
he kept pretending to be so gentle and harmless.
But don't know what he's scheming in his heart.
That time in Dongting Lake, what he showed was his real self.
I don't believe that he don't want that royal throne at all.
Once he marries Jin Mi, Water Deity, Wind Deity,
and the Flower Realm will become his source of power.
If Xu Feng continues to obstinately persist in pursuing that Jin Mi,
the result is unimaginable.
At the bottom of it all, the greatest eyesore is still that Jin Mi.
Right now, there's only one way. We must eliminate Jin Mi,
so we can stop Xu Feng's thoughts and cut off Run Yu's support.
But presently, whether in Flower Realm or here in Heavenly Realm,
I'm afraid that it will be hard to try to hurt Jin Mi again.
As long as you have the heart, there's nothing in this world that you can't do.
Mi'er went to Qiwu Palace twice.
What are your thoughts about that?
It's not easy to finally reunite with my daughter and I initially wanted her to be free of worries from now on.
If the person she likes is Night Deity, then it's fine.
Night Deity is aloof from worldly affairs. Our family can then live a carefree life.
But she just has to develop this kind of unexpected romance with that Fire Deity.
How the Heavenly Realm will criticize this matter is just a minor thing. What's most important is how is it possible for Heavenly Empress to treat Mi'er kindly?
Regarding Mi'er's matter, we can't just standby and watch. Heavenly Empress
will also surely stop at nothing. Our quiet days...
...have ended.
It's fine if we can't live carefree days.
It's fine we need to go against Heavenly Empress. I'm not afraid of all these.
I just want Mi'er to live well. It's just that with her encounter in the mortal world, it indeed can make people have lingering fear.
If Mi'er insists on being with Fire Deity,
don't know what evil scheme Heavenly Empress will come up with to deal with her.
I fear that we won't be able to guard against it.
I'll find a chance to clarify things with Heavenly Emperor.
That's wishful thinking.
Didn't you see the attitude of Heavenly Emperor towards Heavenly Empress after Su Li's death?
Don't place too much hope.
I initially went there to make them happy.
Never thought that Father and Auntie Lin Xiu are worrying for me.
I am too immersed with romantic follies.
Phoenix...
Right now, the only thing that can make my heart sway, pull on my soul, and disturb my dreams
is the face behind this veil.
You are really able to do anything.
You promised to marry me while we're in the Mortal Realm.
Are you still willing right now?
I will clarify everything with father and ask him to cancel this wedding agreement.
By then, of course, I'm willing.
How come my chest feels so strange lately?
Is everything that happened between me and Phoenix in the mortal world
really just fleeting time, a moment of rashness?
Thinking about it now, it does seem like just a dream.
If Rou Rou really died in the hands of Heavenly Empress, she then is my enemy.
Phoenix then becomes the son of my enemy. How then can I face him?
Heavenly Empress kills Rou Rou.
Father and Auntie Lin Xiu are being put in a difficult spot because of me.
If I insist on being with Phoenix, how can I still face them?
Father, when did you arrive?
You didn't even notice me walking towards you.
Are you getting distressed by your wedding with Night Deity?
Marriage isn't child's play. If you cancel your marriage agreement with Night Deity,
do you know how many people you're going to put in a difficult spot?
Father, my wedding...
My wedding... You can decide, father.
In the past, I was too willful.
I don't know why, either.
You're so childish.
You always act on impulsive. Have you really thought it through this time?
Or will you change your mind again tomorrow?
My decision is made. I won't change again.
I can't believe the Heavenly Emperor's two sons
have become subject to my daughter's picky.
The wedding date is close. If you've made a decision now,
you cannot turn back.
Have you really decided?
I have. I won't change my mind again.
The wedding etiquettes of the Heavenly Realm are cumbersome.
Live with me in Luoxiang Manor temporarily.
Allow Aunt Lin Xiu to teach you the etiquettes of the Heavenly Realm.
You are accustomed to a free life in the Flower Realm.
If you end up acting improperly,
it'll be an embarrassment to Night Deity.
I think you're just afraid I'd embarrass you, father.
Even if you embarrass me,
it's a blessing to me.
Has Mother made any movements recently?
Heavenly Empress has not taken a single step outside of Zifang Cloud Palace.
However, Princess Sui He has been frequently going to Zifang Cloud Palace.
Continue watching Mother.
By the way, Your Highness, I heard that High Immortal Jin Mi came to the Heavenly Realm today.
She will be staying in Water Deity's Luoxiang Manor in the future.
- Really? - Yes.
- Is Your Highness going to Ninth Heaven Cloud Palace Hall? - The Luoxiang Manor.
The Heavenly Emperor has invited Lord Doumu to lead in meditation today in the Ninth Heaven Cloud Palace.
I got it. I know what to do.
High Immortal Jin Mi, Fire Deity is requesting an audience.
Don't let him in.
Just tell him to go back.
Yes.
Luoxiang Manor
Fire Diety, Your Highness.
High Immortal Jin Mi said she won't meet with you. You should leave.
What's wrong with her?
Fire Deity, are you...
Timing and Subtitles brought to you by Gone with the Shirt Team @ viki.com
Why were you unwilling to meet with me today?
Not just today.
Fire Deity, we shouldn't meet with each other in the future.
I'll eventually marry Night Deity.
What did you say?
If we're together,
father, Aunt Lin Xiu, Heavenly Emperor,
Head Fragrance Chief, and Night Diety
will be put in difficult positions.
If this is such a difficult situation,
it must be wrong!
In love, there is no right or wrong.
Jin Mi, you know how I feel.
Moreover, we have mutual affections.
Fire Deity, it's true that we had mutual affections once,
but that was only due to the rash courage of mortals.
But now... With mutual affections,
we can't get anywhere.
I won't allow you to marry Night Deity.
Haven't you heard the saying
"divine providence is watching,
and those who ruin a marriage will go to hell"? Aren't you scared?
I, myself, am a god. Why would I fear hell?
In this world, there is nothing I fear.
The only thing that scares me
is your heart.
After we came back from the trial,
I was so happy when you were willing to accept my feelings.
In the past, I had no aspirations for the future,
but after I met you,
I would yearn every day for our future.
But today, you tell me that our relationship is a mistake,
that you will marry Night Deity?
I don't know why you suddenly changed your mind.
Did somebody force you?
Or did I do something to put you in a difficult position? Tell me and I will solve it.
Fire Deity, you are currently putting me in a difficult position.
I don't know what to do, either.
Fire Deity,
Lord Doumu is presenting a lecture today.
It would be bad if you arrive late.
I know that you are just confused today.
I will wait until you think it through.
The Heavenly Realm is unlike the Flower Realm. Be careful.
Especially stay away from my mother.
Phoenix must know something.
Your Highness.
Go guard the Zifang Cloud Palace. If Heavenly Empress is up to anything, report to me immediately.
Yes, Your Highness.
Baby Phoenix!
The fairies of the Heavenly Realm asked me to tie these red threads on you.
I know that your heart is only for Little Jin Mi,
but... The point of these
is to attract good fortune. Why do you have to be so cruel?
You even burned my innocent
red threads.
Baby Phoenix.
The fire in you is blazing!
Who made you angry?
Uncle, Second Highness.
Good boy.
Baby Phoenix, the conference is about to begin. Why are you in a daze?
Hurry, let's go. Let's go.
High Immortal Jin Mi.
Why are you here?
Taishang Laojun is crafting pellets today. He wanted to invite Water Deity to test his pellets.
That's bad timing. My father is at Lord Doumu's conference today.
He's not in the manor.
A furnace filled with pellets, but nobody is there to appreciate them.
I'm afraid Laojun will be disappointed.
High Immortal Jin Mi, do you have the time to test his pellets in his manor?
Me? Is it appropriate for me to go?
If I can't get the Water Deity to come, but instead got his daughter,
I would be able to answer to Laojun.
You may go now.
Yes.
Turns out she's a servant from Zifang Cloud Palace.
Is Heavenly Empress behind this?
Alright. Please wait a moment for me. I will go change my clothes.
I will wait here for you, high immortal.
Mi'er.
Your summoning spell is getting more and more accurate.
Keep it down.
Mi'er, before you even had the chance to marry Night Deity,
you can't suppress your loneliness, and want to...
Get up. I'm being serious with you.
Right now, go to Ninth Heaven Cloud Palace Hall to find my father.
Tell him that Heavenly Empress has sent somebody to take me away.
Heavenly Empress?
The servant outside claims to be a fairy who belongs to Taishang Laojun,
and she has invited me there to test the pellets.
However, she obviously works for Heavenly Empress.
Heavenly Empress is crafty and sinister.
It will definitely be dangerous if you go alone. Stay here, and I'll protect you.
It's okay. This time, I must go.
Heavenly Empress killed Rou Rou. I need to get revenge for Rou Rou!
Go get Father, and I'll do my best to make Heavenly Empress admit to her crimes.
That way, we'll have evidence to accuse her of her crimes!
Okay. You must be careful.
Okay.
This way, high immortal.
This way.
After you.
[Zifang Cloud Palace]
Go ahead, high immortal.
It's really the Heavenly Empress.
Immortal Jin Mi.
Oh, wrong, I should call you Shangxian Jin Mi now.
You have made me wait long.
Baby Phoenix, it's quite lively today. Looks like we're late.
So lively! So many people!
Phoenix quickly look for a seat.
There's a seat there. I'll go over there now.
This religious assembly is quite an important event. Why is Royal Mother not around?
Greetings, Heavenly Empress.
I was supposed to go watch Laoujun refine some pellets,
but unluckily, I got misguided by a immortal servant towards here.
Sorry for disturbing you, Your Majesty. I will leave now.
Jin Mi was taken away by Heavenly Empress's servant.
Where's Baby Phoenix?
Pellets are indeed being cultivated today.
It's just not by Laojun.
I have always been curious
as to what your true form is.
The timing is so great today, so how about we cultivate,
and you can help me broaden my horizons?
Heavenly Empress, you must be joking.
In the Cloud Nine Palace the other day,
my father already informed all immortals
that my true form is a six-petaled frost flower.
In the past, that witch Zi Fen
was able to allure Water Deity with her attractive appearance,
but nobody knows who your true father is.
I'm sure not even your father is certain.
Words cannot be trusted. As of today, nobody has seen your true form.
Seeing is believing.
Today, let me test what you really are.
The Ye Fire is separated into eight ranks.
Glowing Fire, Candle Fire, Wood Fire.
I'm sure those won't work on you.
Let's begin with the fourth rank: Alcoholic Fire.
In the past, your mother
was able to survive until the last rank: the Pure Glass Fire.
I wonder how long you will last.
I cannot wait to find out.
How is that possible?
My mother is the flower deity. How could you manage to hurt her?
She brought that sin upon herself.
Heavenly Empress, I'm afraid you're not trying to figure out my true form today.
You must want me to die here.
Looks like you are not stupid.
When I was in my mortal trial, you sent people to kill me.
In the end, you killed my good friend Rou Rou. Is that right?
So what?
In the past, you hurt my mother. And now, you killed my friend.
I will get revenge for all my old and new grudges
from you today!
With your capabilities?
I should first inform Run Yu.
Your First Highness, Jin Mi is in danger.
The seventh rank: Fire of Rolling Oil.
She's capable of such water spells.
She really is the child of Luo Lin.
The eighth rank: Pure Glass Fire.
Heavenly Empress, why do you want to kill me?
Because you are the daughter of Zi Fen,
because you look similar to her,
and because you dare to seduce my son!
I must hold on until Father comes.
Even making you die thousands of times is not enough!
With your supreme authority, I can't believe
that you are afraid of me.
I feel so flattered.
Scared of you? Why would I be scared of you?
If you don't fear me, why do you only dare to use fire against me,
instead of facing me straight on?
You evildoer. I must personally kill you today.
