Once upon a Time in LingJian Mountain
Episode 21
Open your eyes
and see who I am.
I’m so scared! Who is it?
Lord...
Lord Tianlun.
Leader.
Really?
What the heck?
The leader of Mighty Sect
is a heresy’s chief?
Come on, the plot is too bad!
What happened to the writer?
Did I take a wrong script?
Now,
my secret is not a secret for you.
So there’s no point for you to live.
Guards!
Seize them.
Sir, it’s just a misunderstanding.
My name is Wang Lu,
the Successor Disciple of Master Wang, Lingjian Sect.
Now it seems that we are a family.
Alright. Everything’s been settled.
Yes, Leader.
We are friends.
Master Wang?
That crazy woman
who ruined the branches of White Moon?
A master to a disciple is like what a father to a son.
It’s normal that the son pay his father’s debts.
Your master will appreciate
your sacrifice for her.
OK.
To tell you the truth,
sir,
we are not close.
She makes troubles everywhere.
And I’m eager for her death!
This is a good chance.
Let’s go back to report her to our leader.
OK.
Let’s go.
Wait.
Sir.
Like master like disciple.
What a truth!
You are even more shameless than her.
And you!
Master He, right?
Since you are loyal to him,
go to hell with him!
Sir,
I didn’t tell you
my real identity.
Don’t you think I look like you?
Enough! Shut up!
Arrest them!
Yes!
It’s been a long time.
The chicken that I cooked for you
is cold now.
Well,
I saw many people talking about
joining an organization
named Heart Sect by the river.
It’s said that
people can prolong their life once joining them.
That sect can prolong your life?
Really?
Yes!
Then, what’s the use of practice?
Wang Zhong, why are you even more muddled
after these days’ training?
No.
Look,
its name shows that it’s not reliable.
But
it seems that
its Leader is Wang Lu.
Wang Lu?
Heart Sect
was created in Wuhou County.
And now, it’s been developed in
the cities of Yun, Lei and Qiong.
It’ been a sect
with scale.
Wang Lu?
Maybe they just have the same name.
This name is really ordinary.
Nothing special.
Wang Lu of Lingjian Sect.
He also has two guards,
Hai Yunfan and Wen Bao.
So what’s the principle of this sect?
He told others
this world would be a better one
if everyone would like to donate love.
Why it sounds familiar?
But in fact,
they teach the members how to prolong life.
But we can’t practice
without Magic Root.
Without that,
how did Wang Lu achieve this?
Yeah.
He can’t achieve that anyway...
Unless,
he used some tricks.
Some tricks...
You mean young master...
No,
Wang Lu
is teaching those people
evil magic?
Right!
Wang Lu,
I’m always against you,
but I didn’t think you could be such evil.
How can you be crueler than me?
Yes!
No...
Isn’t he afraid of the punishment
for doing such an unethical thing?
Wang Zhong,
write it down.
Let’s report this to
Master Fang He and let him
deal with it.
But...
But young master took care of me
and spoke good words for you.
Do you think
it’s right to do so?
Wang Zhong,
look at me.
Look at me.
Am I still a prince
who only knows entertainment?
I...
No...
You are not.
During this journey,
I watched a lot.
I watched a lot...
Suddenly,
I understand something.
I’ve realized that
it’s so childish to
be against Wang Lu.
So foolish!
As a man...
No.
As a practicer, we should look ahead of us.
But this time,
I can’t ignore the hurt
that he’s giving to the innocent people.
I’ll write a letter to Master Fang He
to propose a lenient punishment.
I don’t want him to still go astray.
Is it delicious?
A little salty.
Then you’ve almost finished it?
Don’t be a fan of “Chicken”.
You said the truth.
OK.
Even if you were right,
and we didn’t have any relation,
you must leave this
dangerous place with me,
no matter you are
Empress Ye Li or Liuli.
The Leader of Qianling Sect
is my father.
What?
Li.
Father.
You must be Hai Yunfan.
Your friend Wang Lu and that fatty
are in my hand.
What did you do to him?
They came to provoke me, Lord Tianlun,
so there’s no way for them to live.
You are Lord Tianlun?
I can’t believe that
a leader of one of the Five Sects
is a chief of a heresy.
If the second prince of Junhuang Mountain
kneels to beg me,
I won’t kill you.
But you should stay here
to be with my daughter, Li.
You can’t go anywhere else.
I don’t need his company.
I don’t even know who he is.
Now,
even my daughter doesn’t want you to stay.
Go to hell with Wang Lu.
You won’t be alone.
Guards!
Wait.
What, Li?
You want him to leave, right?
I won’t kill him,
as long as you’re happy and won’t leave me.
Kill him.
There’s no way of mercy.
The trespassers
will always pay for it.
But it occurs to me that
Hai Yunfan and Wang Lu
have the precious Magic Root.
If we use their blood to make the matrix
when we see the full moon tonight,
the power will be hundreds times,
especially Wang Lu.
His Void Magic Root appears every thousand years.
I think we’ll be easy to practice with his blood.
Good idea,
my wise daughter.
It’s their honor
to sacrifice for Blood Matrix.
Hai,
you have the Teleport Charm.
Why don’t you send us out now?
It won’t work.
After all, Lord Tianlun
is one of the Leaders of the Five Talents.
He’s almost at the stage of Disassembling.
Within the area controlled by him,
Hai’s charm won’t work.
So what should we do?
Liuli is waiting for our help.
No need.
She doesn’t need our help.
Did she successfully escape?
She’s not Liuli Xian that we know.
Her real name is Ye Li,
the Empress of Qianling Sect,
the daughter of Lord Tianlun.
Maybe
she thinks that we’re just fools.
Impossible.
I think she lied before Lord Tianlun
to save our life.
Don’t be stupid.
It’s her suggestion that
they use our blood for the sacrifice
at the full-moon tonight.
What?
Use our blood to sacrifice?
Yes.
Lord Tianlun made a Blood Matrix.
And they’re going to use our blood.
I got it.
Leader.
What did you get?
Did you notice the skeleton
on our way to the prison?
For many years,
Qianling’s been collecting human’s blood.
It’s just for the Blood Matrix.
If I’m right,
once the matrix is made,
Lord Tianlun will get
an extremely evil magic.
What magic?
Do you remember
Qianyuan Magic?
It uses human’s blood to get the cultivation.
Blood Matrix works the same way.
But the former uses their own blood,
and the latter uses the others’.
So Liuli...
No,
Ye Li
cheated me from the very beginning.
We are just her tools.
Hai,
I really don’t understand what you
ordinary ones are thinking about.
How come you believe everything
that a girl said?
Don’t you ever think
that she has her difficulties?
What difficulties can she have?
Now, put aside whether
she’s Lord Tianlun’s daughter.
Look,
if she’s really ruthless
as what you said,
she could kill you
when you
entered Qianling Sect.
She didn’t need to wait Lord Tianlun.
Also,
after Lord Tianlun came,
he would kill us at that time.
She proposed to kill us tonight
for the sacrifice.
She’s buying time for us.
Wang Lu, do you really think that?
Here comes the point,
how can we leave here?
When the night falls,
we’ll die anyway.
Wang Lu,
please think of an idea.
We can’t make it
without others’ help.
It’s like some chicken is fighting against an eagle.
Now,
I must call my master.
Master, please.
Master, master.
Please come to help the dying me!
But you sound energetic.
Stop lying.
Your master is drinking.
Don’t bother me.
You never care about my life.
But this time, it’s different.
I found a big secret
at the headquarters of Qianling.
I’m not interested in your secret.
But this is about
your lover, Ouyang Shang.
Think about it.
Wang Lu.
Are you blackmailing your master?
Wu,
now it’s the key point.
Put that aside.
Liang Qiu
will take care of it.
I’ll also send someone to keep an eye on it.
Don’t worry.
I know what
the most important is.
Wu.
It’s about Ouyang Shang.
No wonder she’s so worried.
But Liumang Poisonous Blood
is still in her body,
so it’s dangerous that she leaves for there.
Don’t worry,
we’ve cleaned 99% of the poison.
The left poison
won’t affect her too much.
Hope you can find
clues about Ouyang Shang.
It’s better that Wang Lu didn’t tell a lie,
or she’ll be disappointed again.
Wang Lu,
can this work?
Anyway, this is our last hope.
I know my master.
Few things are urgent to her.
If I don’t mention Ouyang Shang,
she’ll totally ignore me.
What if she’s pissed off?
Two results.
One is paying no attention to me.
The other is coming to kill me now.
And then she can help us to ruin here.
So we have a half chance to win.
Not bad.
Go to hell.
We seem to have lost.
I know. Go there.
Wang Lu.
You may ask help from Liang Qiu.
She’s a hundred years’ sword spirit
with a wide vision.
She may know how to help us.
You are right.
Brat!
How dare you cheat me with Ouyang Shang?
You deserve this!
Ouyang Shang is described
as a mighty God in your words.
An unreliable woman.
What did you say?
Liuli.
Wang Lu is right.
You lied to save me, didn’t you?
Before my father finds it,
leave here from the back mountain.
Go. Let’s go together.
Mind your behavior.
I don’t know you,
and I’m not Liuli.
I let you go,
because I don’t want more people
to die for it.
This is all I can say.
Leave here if you don’t want to die.
You don’t know me?
Then why you keep my badge?
You mean this?
You’re lying.
I can see it from your eyes.
Hai.
Let’s go,
before it’s too late.
I must stay.
She falls,
and I’ll fall with her.
Miss Ye,
could you show us out?
Leader.
The end is coming.
Leader,
why didn’t you stop her ladyship
letting them go?
Our big business is arriving.
There’s no need
to kill more people.
Also, I can tell that
Li likes the boy named Hai Yunfan.
Making her sad is the last thing that I want to see.
You are right.
Thanks for
being with me for these years.
I would have died if you hadn’t saved me.
It is my duty
to help you achieve your thing.
But...
Leader,
do we have
to do that?
Of course.
I have been waiting for this day for long.
It’s a pity that my Li takes such
responsibility in this young age.
But what you’ll lose is too much.
You even...
Stop!
Stop saying.
For that thing,
the sacrifice is worth.
Yes, sir.
You’ve woken up?
Leader.
Where is Liuli?
Now,
she’s supposed to attend the Blood Matrix.
Why did you hit me?
Who gave you rights to make my choice?
Yeah, Wang Lu,
who will help Liuli
when we are not there?
Who told you that we would leave her?
If I hadn’t hit you
at that urgent time,
we would have been found
for standing there for a long time.
Also,
how can we save her
if we are still in prison?
You are right.
You are so thoughtful.
I thought you just left Liuli.
Could you trust me a little?
Wang Lu, sorry
for misunderstanding you.
Alright.
We swore that
no one could leave us.
Let’s go to save her.
He,
you are here to wait for our order.
I see.
Time is now.
Blood and soul, call the magic.
- Blood and soul, call the magic. - No.
Blood and soul, call the magic.
Blood and soul, magic is coming.
Li,
did you hear?
It’s Black Tide.
They arrive finally.
Dad,
I’m cold.
Li.
Don’t be afraid.
I’m here.
After you sacrifice yourself
and fix the seal,
I’ll come to be with you.
Stop!
Don’t hurt them!
I told you to go as far as you can!
Why did you come back?
We four are perfect partners,
so there’s no reason for us to leave you.
Dad,
let’s start.
Liuli!
Hai!
Stop!
Dad, please don’t kill him.
I’ll do whatever you ask me to do.
Don’t worry,
I know your feeling to him.
I won’t kill him.
Hai!
Lord Tianlun.
Don’t you think you are pathetic?
You even let your daughter sacrifice
to practice such evil magic?
Brat!
For my daughter’s sake,
I didn’t kill you.
You’d better be smart. Get lost!
Do you know what this is?
Frozen Charm.
What do you want?
Look,
if the blood in this pond
becomes frozen,
will this matrix work?
Don’t you dare?
I’ll show you.
What on earth do you want?
Release Liuli
now.
OK.
I release her.
Blood Seal.
Work together.
It doesn’t work.
This is an Ice Barrier that
my dad made with his cultivation.
To ruin it, there are only two ways.
He dissolves it by himself
or his cultivation is damaged.
We can’t make it by ourselves.
That’s...
That’s Black Tide.
Black Tide?
Hundreds of years ago,
demons opened the seal of Black Tide,
bringing disasters to the world.
Your dad set this matrix
not for practice, but for...
No!
What he’s doing is to
repair Qingmu Mark
and block Black Tide.
You mean...
There’s a problem of Qingmu Mark?
Yes.
What you saw
was the leaking Black Tide
due to the damage of Qingmu Mark.
So this Blood Matrix is to
repair Qingmu Mark,
not to ruin the world.
As a father, how come
he sacrifices his child to ruin the world?
Now!
We can’t let them
destroy our matrix!
I have been
waiting for this moment for decades.
Ten years ago,
my dad found the problem of Qingmu Mark.
Hurry.
Dad.
Look, what’s this?
There’s a crack on Qingmu Mark?
It’s broken.
The world is facing a huge disaster.
This is just a common seal.
Why are you showing me this look?
For years, when it came to Qingmu Mark,
you beat about the bush.
So what’s the use of it?
Why must we
protect its seal?
Do you know
what is out of the world?
Out of the world,
it’s the infinite outer space.
Though
it’s the infinite outer space,
something is really in there.
In that dark world
that we can’t see,
many demons are existing.
The most horrible one
is a strange poisonous gas,
Black Tide.
Ten thousand years ago,
humans and demons set five seals,
Gold, Wood, Water, Fire and Earth
together.
Finally, the world was protected
from the Black Tide.
It was set by the strong magic,
but why it’s showing a crack?
A hundred years ago,
humans were fighting against demons.
Demons knew that they would totally lose,
so they decided to ruin the seal
and die with humans.
Luckily, the Golden of Lingjian found it in time.
The new generation Ouyang Shang
decided to sacrifice himself for the seal
to destroy the demons’ trick.
Now, the Five Seals
are in the charge of our Five Talents.
That’s it.
I can’t believe Qingmu Mark
is related to the safety of the world.
It’s lucky that I found it.
You are so powerful
that you can fix the seal.
Dad, are we heroes
of this world?
It seems that the Mark has been repaired,
but actually it’s still fragile.
What I did cannot help it for a long time.
If I’m right, within 10 years,
Qingmu Mark will be completely destroyed.
Then, even God
cannot save it.
The world will be attacked by Black Tide again.
A horrible disaster will come.
Blood Matrix?
After my dad knew Blood Matrix
could seal Black Tide,
he began his
long-term plan.
So that,
he drove away
my uncle Lord Dilun
and killed my mom
and all his lovers.
Also, my siblings.
Your dad is so cruel.
Though it was for justice,
he could have used other ways.
Yes.
But the other way is crueler.
Killing people?
After all his families were killed,
he had no choice.
But why did you create the heresy
and let Holy Girls collect blood?
About four years ago,
under my father’s order,
I began to kill people to collect blood.
But on my way,
I met a colored master of Lingjian.
He’s my master Ao Guanhai.
He stopped everything
and reported it to the Immortal Union.
So they began to investigate it.
My dad had no choice
but stopped his kill.
Then he began cheating people to donate blood.
I see.
Liuli Xian is your second character.
Master Ao thought
you were a victim,
so that he took you back to Lingjian Sect
and taught you kungfu and cared about you,
right?
Yes.
But donating blood
can’t get the result quickly as killing.
Blood Matrix has been delayed to now.
For the four years,
I was living in Lingjian Sect.
My father knew it.
But he approved it
when seeing I was happy there.
Not long ago, when he did divination,
he found the Blood Month was coming.
What he’s been planning for years will be finished.
That’s why he asked me to be back here.
No wonder that these female assassins
came to attack our Wang Village.
By the way,
there’s something that I don’t understand.
Why did your dad only leave you with him
while he had a lot of children?
Because we are the same.
We are the chosen ones.
You have the unique Void Magic Root,
and I
have the purest blood,
the most suitable blood for sacrifice.
Sacrifice?
We collected so much blood
to finish this matrix.
That means I need to sacrifice
to repair Qingmu Mark.
That’s the only way
to repair it.
No.
There must be other ways.
Sacrifice is unavoidable.
It’s like when you’re playing chess.
Each party loses one,
and then the whole situation is balanced.
We don’t have other choices.
I don’t believe it.
Gosh!
My dad is in danger.
Leader.
Are you all right?
Your eyes...
Lea...
Leader...
