"Ashes of Love"
"Episode 45"
I won't let you marry him.
A strand of hair.
A strand of love.
Under this circumstances, there is no hope between us.
Keep my hair.
I'm sending my love through my hair.
I hope the feeling is mutual.
Don't worry, I'll figure it out.
However,
you'll have to put up with it before the wedding ceremony.
He who exercises government by means of his virtue...
may be compared to the north polar star...
which keeps its place and all the stars will turn towards it.
The dragon has soared to the zenith, it will regret sooner or later.
It's the Heavenly Emperor's fault for favouring the devious candidate.
The Heavenly Emperor is immoral, the North Polar Star loses its shine.
What should we do?
One must walk on the right track and avoid going into the wrong path.
In order to set things straight,
a wiser leader must be elected to replace the old one.
It's Run Yu's fault for abusing the power and being insatiable.
Your Highness, what should we do?
We should clean up the mess and save the six realms from danger.
It's a battle of life and death, we'll fight until the end.
To conquer the earth with the sky,
first attain the providence of the universe.
The fire is on top while the water is at the bottom,
act with prudence and moderation.
Exchanging the mountain with the lake and establish the west road later.
Let the Emperor Star ward the North Star.
Let the Dubhe Star break through the Alkaid Star.
Let the Mizar Star change the Megrez Star.
The Heaven Realm has come to the end.
Instead of robbing one's belly to cover one's back...
it'd be better to take a drastic measure.
Bear the pain to destroy the old and establish the new government.
Only then it's in line with the destiny.
There is always a reign of terror whenever there is a change in power.
I couldn't bear to see people being plunged into misery.
We've to endure it to the end even if we have to buck the trend.
Your Highness, the odds are not in our favour.
Why does he insist to carry on his plan...
when the odds are not in his favour?
No doubt we don't stand a chance to win.
If that's the case...
why did you insist on hitting him below the belt?
Yan Yue.
Yan Yue?
A constellation behind the moon.
It can't be controlled yet it may cause apocalypse.
We'll have to put all eggs in one basket...
to win in this battle.
What leverage does he have?
Mi Er loves Osmanthus wine.
I've made some lately.
You're just in time.
We can have Osmanthus wine together.
Then I'll not be shy.
Do you still remember...
you're the one...
who gave me the first wine of my life.
Come on.
Hurry up.
What is this?
- It's wine. - I want to try.
You're too young to drink wine.
I want it.
You can only drink a little.
Look up.
Is it delicious? Is it delicious?
- Give it to me. - No.
No!
Give it to me.
When we were little,
I used to follow you around.
After we've grown up, we fight side by side.
Gone are the days when we lived carefreely.
Those great memories of yours...
are just a bunch of nightmares to me.
- Xu Er... - Your Highness, what's wrong?
- Get up. Don't cry. - Don't cry, Your Highness.
Don't cry.
What've you done?
I...
I just wanted to protect brother from the fire.
Mother.
Come here!
Mother.
I'll keep brother safe.
I won't hurt him.
Mother, I beg you.
Let go of me.
Let me out, mother.
Let me out, mother!
Mother!
Mother, let me out.
Let me out, mother.
Mother, let me out!
Thereafter, I knew...
that I have to be cautious about surviving in the Heaven Realm.
I'm sorry.
I'll be marrying Jin Mi tomorrow.
You come to Xuan Ji Palace at midnight,
I don't suppose you're here to reminisce the past with me.
Promise me,
tomorrow,
don't do something that you'll regret.
I can give you everything you want.
Jin Mi?
You know I'm not talking about her.
Xu Feng,
I have nothing now.
I only want Jin Mi.
Since we were little,
I could give you everything you want.
Only this time,
I'll never give up.
Do you really have to do this?
Do you not care about the devotion of our parents and our brotherhood?
If I don't do this, how can I keep the person that I care?
That's why...
you're willing to risk losing everything.
Either I get everything...
or lose everything.
I can't live with it anymore.
You know that...
I won't sit by and watch.
Hope you can come to Jin Mi and my wedding tomorrow.
We're very close to each other,
I really don't want to see us...
moving to that point.
I'll repeat one last time,
you can take everything away,
except for Jin Mi.
Thank you.
But...
I don't need your charity.
Good wine.
Why do you ask me here the night before your wedding?
Yan You,
will you walk that path with me tomorrow...
to fulfill mother's wish?
Looks like you insist on taking the wrong path.
Sorry that I can't keep you company.
You don't want to help me.
Are you afraid of failure?
I'm not afraid of anything in the world.
You and I...
fear the same thing after all.
We're afraid of being abandoned.
To prevent it from happening,
I chose to be obedient...
while you chose to be frivolous.
But I know this isn't the real you.
You never take anything seriously...
because you dare not expect too much.
You're afraid that...
even if you try your best and fight for yourself,
you'll still be disappointed by the outcome.
Stop pretending that you know me very well.
I came to tell you...
that I'm not going to attend your wedding tomorrow.
I won't walk the path with you.
We have different values.
I don't agree with what you do.
You always think that you can see through me and see through everything.
In fact, the only person you can't see through is yourself.
If anything happens tomorrow,
I'll take care of Li Er.
Father.
Jin Mi,
you promised to marry me when you were a mortal.
- Will you still marry me? - Of course I do.
- Get up. - Move.
Xu Feng.
The Flora Realm hasn't had such a big occasion for thousands of years.
I'm not used to it.
We've finally fulfilled our duty given by the former chief.
Marrying the wrong person.
What a pity!
Pity what?
You are Water Immortal now.
You shouldn't kneel down to us.
Little one is expressing her gratitude.
Jin Mi, get up now.
The Flora Realm and the Heaven Realm are old rivals,
we won't see you off then.
Heavenly Emperor's brother, the Moon Immortal is here to escort you.
It shows that the Heaven Realm values you.
Chief Zhang and everyone,
thank you...
for braving the storm for me...
and taking care of me all these years.
I always misbehaved in the past.
As long as you're safe and happy,
we'll be relieved.
If Night Immortal is not nice to you...
or you are bullied in the Heaven Realm,
- you can come back to stay. - Exactly.
You can always come back even if you're not bullied,
I'll make a roasted rabbit for you.
Take good care of yourself.
It's about time, you'd better get changed now.
You'll definitely look very beautiful in the wedding gown.
I'll go in first then.
Jin Mi, Jin Mi.
Xu Feng has given his Huan Di Phoenix Feather to you.
You really don't regret it?
Fox Fairy,
can you help me to give it back to Phoenix?
Jin Mi, how could you dump the old one for the new?
Love someone else, be ungrateful,
unfaithful and abandon your husband?
What should the poor Phoenix do?
You see only the happiness of the new lover,
but forget the agony of the old one.
Auspicious moment for the entrance of the couple.
Left hand touching the ground, right hand holding the sky.
The palm lines generate lightning across the universe.
Time passes quickly.
Three thousand years are like a blink of an eye.
Left hand picking a flower, right hand playing a sword.
It's been snowing for 10 thousands years.
A drop of tear.
Where is Xu Feng? How come I don't see him?
The wedding of Night Immortal and Water Immortal...
is a great event of the Heaven Realm.
The front gate of the Highest Palace must be very packed.
I think Xu Feng is stuck in the crowd on the way here.
Maybe we shall wait.
We can't miss the auspicious time.
Forget about him. Let's get it started.
Father,
you are not only a father and a teacher to me,
but also...
the person who's granted me a great marriage.
I especially offer the Starlight Essence to you...
to show my gratitude.
It is admirable that you're so filial.
Perform the ritual.
Bow to the heaven.
Hold on.
What's written in the play is true.
Prince Charming will definitely come to rescue the bride.
Father.
Xu Feng, what are you doing?
You still don't want to take my advice.
The die is cast.
If you still refuse to come to your senses,
Highest Palace will be stained with the blood of the innocent soldiers.
Stop it now.
I'll help you to beg for father's forgiveness.
Your Highness,
our men were ambushed by Fire Immortal.
Liao Yuan, tell me.
What's happened outside?
Your Majesty, the Highest Palace is ambushed by Night Immortal's army.
When the time has come,
he'll hit the drum to give the order to attack the Highest Palace.
Is he telling the truth?
Your Divine Army of 3 Directions has been defeated by me.
Your Majesty, we come to rescue you.
Run Yu, I'm giving you a chance to defend yourself.
Do you have anything to say?
Nothing.
Two dogs strive for a bone, and the third runs away with it.
The winner rules, while the loser is ruled.
I am just one step away from winning.
You are always smarter than me.
You have greater merits and better political tactics than me.
I don't understand why do you choose the wrong path.
I have a clear conscience.
Run Yu,
I had high expectation of you.
But never have I expected that...
you are such a disloyal and unrighteous rebel.
All immortals are here today, we have so many witnesses.
If I don't punish you harshly, how can I answer the six realms?
Father,
Run Yu did make a grave mistake,
but luckily it hasn't led to a disaster.
Hope you can be gracious and forgive him.
Say no more.
All soldiers take my orders.
Quickly arrest this disloyal vermin and take him to Pi Suo Prison.
Someone who is disloyal, unrighteous and inhumane...
has no right to ask others to be faithful and loyal to him.
In order to ascend to the throne,
you killed your brother, walked out on the Flora Immortal,
married a witch, insulted my mother and abandoned your son.
While my brother wants to take my wife away.
The mortals say that heaven is the best place.
Little do they know, this is the filthiest,
cruelest and hypocritical place of the six realms!
Shut up!
Father.
Tell me, you vermin,
what is it in the drink that you gave me just now?
Just some Evil Spirit Ashes.
You can only live for another 4 hours.
You...
Run Yu, I always know that you have a crafty mind.
But I've never thought that you would do something so ruthless.
Ruthless?
Heavenly Emperor murdered his brother,
let Heavenly Empress kill the Flora Immortal,
my mother and wipe out the dragonfish tribe.
Is he not ruthless?
What is happening today...
shows that justice is served, what goes around, comes around.
I'm not doing all these to stand upright between heaven and earth.
I did it for the peace of my mind...
and repaying my mother's devotion.
Devotion.
Even if your heart is filled with hatred, father did raise you up.
The winner rules, while the loser is ruled.
I'm not afraid of death.
Arrest Night Immortal.
You traitors,
aren't you afraid of being punished by the heaven?
Heavenly Emperor and Empress have misconducted.
Despite the risk of being condemned by the six realms,
Night Immortal stood out and revealed their crimes.
It is a blessing of the Heaven Realm.
The Heaven Realm is undergoing major change now,
we're willing to crown Night Immortal as Heavenly Emperor...
to quell the disorder and rebuild the prestige of the Heaven Realm.
We'll pledge loyalty to Night Immortal.
You...
How dare you betray me!
Heavenly Emperor and Empress are so ruthless...
that they've infuriated most of the immortals.
Fire Immortal, don't you get it now?
Yin Que, how dare you conspire with Night Immortals.
I will put the house in order today.
Come!
Take Fire Immortals and his men.
Yes.
Watch Heavenly Emperor.
Liao Yuan!
Liao Yuan.
Liao Yuan...
is unable to protect you anymore.
Xu Feng, if there is an afterlife.
I hope there will only be me and you never exist.
Jin Mi.
Jin Mi, help me.
Jin Mi.
Xu Feng!
Why?
You know it!
You killed my father!
You killed Aunt Lin Xiu!
Xu Feng!
Have you...
ever loved me?
Never.
Xu Feng!
You really keep my hair in the place where your internal alchemy is.
Jin Mi,
I will kill you!
