EPISODE 9

GLITCHED INTO AN IN-GAME ODYSSEY
OF CULTIVATION TRIALS AND TRIBULATIONS

Go and report back.

Tell them I am unwell

and will not attend the banquet
at Serene Vale.

Understood.

Why aren't you going?

They want to use Tingyan
to seal Sima Jiao.

I must hurry and warn her.

We can't let
such a good opportunity slip by.

I will do what you can't bear to do.

Once Liao Tingyan is dead,

I will take her core
and bring our people home.

Since the Grandmaster
has promised to protect me,

I should be fine, right?

JADE HERON FLYING PAVILION

Is this a five-star hotel in mid-air?

Oh my…

If only I could stay there for a day.

I'd even pay!

Well, as long as
I stick close to the Grandmaster,

I should be able
to live for quite a while.

There must be plenty of treasures here
waiting for me to enjoy.

Once Yuan Che gives the signal,
we will act with the other palaces.

Yes, Madam.

Someone is approaching.

They're finally here.

Why isn't the Grandmaster here?

Looks like he has figured out our plan.

If he had, would he have let her come?

The banquet is prepared for you.

Its purpose is to kill you.

Go.

And take this.
Just act as if everything is normal.

What is that?

- This demon has broken our array!
- Capture her!

Is there some misunderstanding?
I'm not a demon.

You demon, surrender now!

Freeze!

Grandmaster!

Why have I suddenly become so powerful?

Were you helping me in secret?

- Let's go.
- Where to?

To die.

Young Madam, are we still going
to wander near White Deer Cliff?

The Grandmaster's been keeping
a close eye on all the palaces.

Madam Yue has
repeatedly told you to act with caution.

If only Chuhui had tried harder.

If she were the one
by the Grandmaster's side right now,

everything would be much easier.

That's why I must find a way to
"accidentally" run into the Grandmaster.

If I can win his favor,

perhaps I can help Mother
through this crisis.

But among the disciples
who entered the mountain,

only Liao Tingyan has caught his eye.

Are you saying I can't even compare
to that useless three-spiritual-root?

Young Madam, spare me.

Young Madam,
don't trespass on White Deer Cliff!

I didn't do it.
I can't control the pavilion at all!

This is strange.
Why did the pavilion suddenly stop?

Someone's coming. It's…

Grandmaster.

Greetings, Grandmaster.

What a lovely flying pavilion.

Perfect place to kill someone.

Is the Grandmaster
planning to kill Liao Tingyan here?

She should consider herself lucky
to be able to die in my flying pavilion.

Grandmaster, I'm willing to do it for you.

No need to get blood on your hands.

Are you from the Moon Palace?

Yes. My mother is
the Mistress of the Moon Palace.

You're a guest here.

How could you throw
the hostess out? Isn't that rude?

The Eight Palaces and the Shi family

have taken much more
than a flying pavilion

from my clan.

You're leaving me here all by myself?

Isn't this the flying pavilion
I saw during the day?

Did I just check into a five-star hotel?

The view is amazing.

Did he put a bug on me or something?

How did he know I wanted to stay here?

Grandmaster.

You put together such a big setup,

yet you still couldn't defeat
a mere spy from the Demon Realm.

It seems the Eight Palaces
are due for new leaders.

Grandmaster, what do you mean by that?

Didn't you know Liao Tingyan
was from the Demon Realm?

Then who exactly did you prepare

all this for today?

We only just learned of it ourselves.

What do you intend to do
with Liao Tingyan, Grandmaster?

Remove her tendons, peel off her skin,

and break her bones.

I will imprison her first.

This place is wonderful.
I'd be happy to stay here for a month.

Then roast her flesh over fire.

A little more roasting and it'll be ready.

And throw her into
a freezing cold pool to soak.

Is this paradise?

Finally, she will be devoured by beasts,

never to see daylight again.

This really is a five-star hotel.

It's so comfortable.

And what about Liao Tingyan's body?

There will be no body.

Under such torture, nothing will remain.

For a mere Demon Realm spy,

to die at the Grandmaster's hand
would be an honor.

Get lost.

Get lost!

Grandmaster, Liao Tingyan
may have committed grave crimes,

but she is still my disciple.

I beg you, Grandmaster,

let me bury her properly.

I already said there would be no body.

What are you going to bury?

Are you saying
the Grandmaster killed that woman

from the Demon Realm himself?

Yes, that's what he said.

- That's why we came to confirm it.
- Mother!

Chuhui?

Mother, I finally found you.

Liao Tingyan is finally dead.

Chuhui, did you see something?

I took the Snow Goose Flying Pavilion
near White Deer Cliff.

The Grandmaster
suddenly brought Liao Tingyan there

and treated her with extreme cruelty.

He even said the flying pavilion
was perfect for killing someone.

What a lovely flying pavilion.

Perfect place to kill someone.

Liao Tingyan was scared stiff.

I offered to do it for the Grandmaster,

but it seemed
he wanted to kill her himself.

So it's true?

I thought Sima Jiao was just tricking us.

There's no point in guessing.

One look at the life lamp, and we'll know.

Sect Master!

Sect Master, Liao Tingyan's life lamp
suddenly went out.

We can't summon her soul either.

Looks like that demon really is dead.

Even her soul is gone?

What a pity.

Without Liao Tingyan as bait,
none of us can match the Grandmaster.

Of all times to die, she had to die now.

I say we end the meeting here for today
and return to our palaces.

Hold on, everyone.

Sect Master Shi, do you still have doubts?

Everyone, you all saw with your own eyes

how the Grandmaster protected Liao Tingyan

the day he broke the seals.

How dare you act
with such impudence before me?

What are you afraid of?

If I don't let you die, you won't die.

He has been cruel since childhood,
without exception to anyone.

Just because he protected someone before
doesn't mean he'll protect them now.

How about this?
To confirm the demon is truly gone,

I suggest you go
to White Deer Cliff once more.

If she is not dead,

then right now,
she must think she has fooled us,

and her guard will be at its lowest.

If we search for her aura now,
we will surely find something.

That is easy
for you to say, Sect Master Shi.

Tell me, who
in the Gengchen Celestial Palace

would dare to trespass
on the Grandmaster's territory?

Then I suppose Sect Master Shi
will have to do it himself.

I am willing to go to White Deer Cliff
to investigate, Sect Master Shi.

Good.

Master Yuan,
you must be very careful on this trip.

Don't worry, Sect Master.

I must report this matter
to the Grandmaster at once.

Wait, Master Yuan.

Master Yuan,
I can't let you take such a risk alone.

I will bring a few disciples
and go with you

to ensure nothing goes wrong.

Listen carefully:
once you enter White Deer Cliff,

search immediately for
the Demon Realm spy's aura.

If you find her, capture her on the spot.

Understood.

Tell me.

Why are you really here?

To fix my sleep schedule and unwind.

In short, to take a vacation.

- Don't you want to kill me?
- No.

Why not?

I am just an innocent nobody.

But I thought of a way
that might cheer you up.

It worked!

I raised your realm,
and you use it for this?

It's cheered you up, hasn't it?

Don't you like it?

Actually, this isn't my home,
nor somewhere I even know well.

For no reason at all, I keep ending up
in life-threatening trouble.

Luckily, I have you, Grandmaster.

With your protection,
I can live safely as a nobody,

even in a place this dangerous.

Hurry.

The Demon Realm spy's aura is inside!

Grandmaster.

Grandmaster, this… What is this?

How dare you trespass?

Do you also want to know what it's like
to be wiped out without a trace?

Forgive us, Grandmaster.

I detected traces
of the Demon Realm spy's aura remaining

and was concerned for your safety,

so I came to report it.

Since you like to
busy yourself so much, come.

Clean this up.

Yes, Grandmaster.

This is the only thing in the room
that carries Liao Tingyan's aura.

It seems she really has been killed.

If you dare trespass again,
you will no longer be the Sect Master.

Understood.

Let's go.

Canglan, you schemed against me?
What did you do?

What's wrong? What happened?

We can never return
to the Demon Realm now.

Sima Jiao killed Liao Tingyan,
leaving no trace of her body.

Her body, her core… Everything is gone.

What did you say?

Everyone heard it.
Sima Jiao said it himself.

He only just realized
Liao Tingyan was from the Demon Realm.

Then he killed her.

Even her life lamp has gone out.

Sima Jiao has saved Tingyan many times.

He's been with her constantly
since ending seclusion.

Their bond could only have grown deeper.

Would he really have
killed her in cold blood?

Ruling, now that Liao Tingyan is dead,

perhaps we should consider
shifting the target to Sima Jiao.

Absolutely not. To act recklessly
under the Grandmaster's nose

would only doom the whole of Yin Palace.

What does Yin Palace have to do with you?

Have you grown so attached
to the palace mistress's seat

that you've forgotten Mother's dying wish

and the clansmen still waiting
for you to take them home?

How dare you!

Madam, the Black Serpent that follows
the Grandmaster is requesting an audience.

I will not see him.

- Go and tell him she will see him now.
- Understood.

Father, Sima Jiao
is cruel and bloodthirsty.

Liao Tingyan was just
a passing amusement for him.

It is no surprise he killed her.

Why are you still worried?

Do you think
Sima Jiao has already figured out

that we plan to seal him?

If not, why didn't he attend
the banquet at Serene Vale?

If he no longer cared about Liao Tingyan,

it makes sense
that he didn't accompany her there.

If he did know about our plan,
he would have already gone berserk.

Until Sima Jiao is sealed,

I cannot feel at ease.

Any news from Chiyan City?

Nothing yet. But rest assured, Father.

Everything is proceeding as planned.

Ruling.

Ruling.

No. Greetings, Madam Ye.

You may leave us.

What happened to Tingyan?

The Grandmaster didn't kill her, did he?

Let's sit and talk. Come.

Ruling, I don't think Tingyan is dead.

Really? Then where is she now?

She… Well, I don't really know
where she is now.

But I think
the Grandmaster must've found a way

to keep her alive.

He simply doesn't want others
to know her whereabouts.

So you are saying Tingyan
is not with the Grandmaster now?

In that case, I can rest easier.

Still, as a man,
you should not come here so often.

People will talk.

What are you doing?

Madam Ye, please take me as your disciple.

This isn't a place for you to fool around.
Get up.

I am not fooling around.

Ruling, if I become your disciple,

I will have a reason to see you every day,

and you won't have to worry about gossip.

So please,

take me as your disciple.

You inherited the Grandmaster's
spiritual power and techniques.

What could I possibly teach you?

How to be human.

And you think that is not fooling around?

I am serious.

As you know,
I have only just taken human form.

There are still so many things
about being human that I need to learn.

So, will you be my master?

Please?

Please?

If I had that much time,
I could spend it on my own cultivation.

Why should I waste time teaching you?

Because if I learn well,

I can become your capable aide,

and you can use me to get what you want.

What do you mean by that?

I remember Tingyan once said

you fought with everything you had
to become the palace mistress

because there was power
you wanted to gain,

things you wanted to accomplish,

and goals you wanted to achieve.

And I can help you with all of that.

Ruling, he is Sima Jiao's guard.

You must make good use of this pawn.

Trust me.

All right. Come with me.

I will tell you what I want to do.

Move it.

Get up!

Hurry!

They…

The people here are all captives taken
from the Demon Realm

- during the Immortal-Demon War years ago.
- Hurry!

They have almost
no access to spiritual veins

and have to rely on their scant memories
of the Demon Race to cultivate.

So they are the poorest in cultivation
in the whole of Yin Palace.

This is also where I grew up.

How could this happen?

They are already people
of the Celestial Palace.

They shouldn't be abused
like this in the Yin Palace.

Soon, there will be no more abuse.

I have negotiated
with the elders for a long time

and finally brought them
to abolish their slave status.

So today is
their last day in the Labor Camp.

Ruling,

you must have…
suffered so much in the past.

Children, remember this.

No matter how difficult
things become in the future,

you must find a way

to lead our people back to our homeland.

But at least you have done
something great for your people.

But for most of them,

if they can't return home
to the Demon Realm,

then it doesn't matter where they live.

I brought you here to tell you

that letting my people
live the life they want is my true wish.

I will help you.

Really?

Really.

You say you aren't used to being human
and don't understand humanity,

but in my eyes, you're actually
more sincere than most people.

Really?

You're making me blush

with all that praise.

If you truly want to help me,

I should, of course,
give you something in return.

What do you mean?

I'm willing to be your master.

Master.

I bow to you, Master.

All right.

Since I am now your master,

- I will give you a name.
- Okay.

Since you are a black serpent,

and the day you took human form
was the 29th of the month,

I name you Hei Nianjiu. What do you think?

You actually remember
the day I became human?

- What's so hard about that?
- Nianjiu…

- I like this name.
- I'm glad you do.

Grandmaster.

Why does he look so big?

Even his hand
reaching toward me looks huge.

It's like he's a giant.

What is that?

Why have I turned into an otter?

Why did you turn me into this?

Change me back!

I want my long legs and pretty face back!

I didn't turn you into this.

You wanted to become this yourself.

Nonsense.

You sly fox, full of lies!

I fed you a Form-Changing Pill,

and it turned you into the form
you remembered most vividly in your heart.

THIS OTTER IS SO GOOD AT PLAYING CUTE

This otter looks so sleek and shiny.

It must feel amazing to pet.

Why, oh why?

I can't feel this great fur myself,
but instead, Sima Jiao gets to enjoy it.

The internet has ruined me…

Change me back!

The Form-Changing Pill
will keep you like this for three months.

Could you move your noble hand away?

I'm a person, not a body pillow, okay?

A body pillow?

Meaning a pillow to hold while you sleep?

That's a fine name.

Why did you feed me
the Form-Changing Pill?

Because in the eyes of others,
you are already dead.

Otherwise, sooner or later,

you'd be killed
by that traitor, Shi Qianlv.

Isn't he your guardian?

The respect he shows now is just an act.

So you did this for my sake?

But turning me into an otter
is going too far.

I think it's "schoolkid-ish."

That's not how you use that word.

Never mind.

If sleeping could raise your realm,

you'd be dominating
the Gengchen Celestial Palace.

Where did this spirit pet come from?

The Grandmaster is so close to it.

Grandmaster, I have a new name now.

It's Hei Nianjiu.

Nice name! Congrats, Nianjiu!

What are you squealing about,
you little thing?

What's it to you?

Even with a new name,
he's still the same dumb snake.

Grandmaster, you value Tingyan greatly.

Surely you didn't really kill her, right?

I haven't even told her my new name yet.

If you don't find out
what I told you to investigate soon,

I will kill you too.

Spare me, Grandmaster.
I've already found that girl.

She's Anxue from the Yin Palace.

I asked Ruling about her.

She said she hadn't seen Anxue for days.

But her life lamp is still lit,
so she should still be alive

and just hidden somewhere.

By the way,

I've brought many things
Anxue left in the Yin Palace.

Maybe some of them could be useful?

Neither erasing her memory
nor killing her outright…

That's not Shi Qianlv's style.

What's so special about this Anxue
that he'd go to so much trouble?

Could it be that Shi Qianlv
has taken a liking to Anxue

and has ulterior motives toward her?

You actually guessed it.

That shameless old fool.

You fool, this is something
Shi Zhenxu has touched.

So it was Shi Zhenxu who hid Anxue away?

He's the one she's involved with?

Inject this strand
of spiritual power into Anxue's life lamp

and spread the word
that we are looking for her.

Understood.

Who knows?

Perhaps Shi Zhenxu
is Shi Qianlv's weak point.

THE NEW SPIRIT FIRE HAS TAKEN SHAPE

We did it!

The new Spirit Fire has taken shape!

Congratulations, Father.

Now that the Spirit Fire is ready,

we're one step closer
to completing our plan.

We've reached a key turning point.
Hurry to Chiyan City.

Get them to speed things up.

Rest assured, Father.
I will not let you down.

Sima Jiao, your days are numbered.

Stay here for now.

Once Father's plan is fulfilled,
we will be together forever.

I'll wait for you to come back.

Goodbye.

Sect Master.

Do you know Sima Jiao
is searching for you everywhere?

Zhenxu hasn't performed
Soul Cleanse on you yet,

has he?

I will be extra careful
in the coming days.

I won't let Sima Jiao find me.

Good.

Go now.

Thank you, Sect Master.

Only the dead

can never be found.

Grandmaster, Anxue's life lamp went out.

Shi Qianlv killed her.

Looks like we won't be able
to get any information from her.

If I want it,
even the dead can come back to life.

Grandmaster.

Still going to protect
the one who killed you?

I only wished to be with Zhenxu forever.

Why did he kill me?

I will tell you whatever you want
to know, Grandmaster.

Please avenge me and kill Shi Qianlv.

What exactly is Shi Qianlv plotting
with Shi Zhenxu?

I…

I don't know.

Where did Shi Zhenxu go?

Chiyan City.

To find someone with
a flame-shaped birthmark on their back.

Why is he looking for such a birthmark?

Grandmaster,
is she truly gone just like that?

Her soul was completely destroyed.

Even my spell could only
keep her here for a short while.

Shi Qianlv is so ruthless.

Now, I finally understand

what you meant when you said Shi Zhenxu
was Shi Qianlv's weak point.

Let's hear it.

You already knew Shi Qianlv
was unhappy about Shi Zhenxu

being involved with Anxue,

so you had me spread the word
that we were looking for her,

knowing his dissatisfaction and resentment
would drive him to kill her.

When you had me
inject your spiritual power

into Anxue's life lamp,
it was all in preparation for this day.

You're finally making some progress.

Grandmaster, this is Tingyan's bed.

Nianjiu, why do you look like
you just lost a dear friend?

Grandmaster, you didn't
really kill Tingyan, did you?

Grandmaster, hurry and tell him the truth.

If I didn't kill her, others would have.

Death was inevitable for her.

Better to end her suffering early.

I don't believe it.
You would never kill Tingyan.

You must have hidden her away
to protect her, right?

I can't let this thing
take the Grandmaster's attention away.

I have to do something.

How am I supposed to
eat, drink, and have fun like this?

We will go on vacation somewhere else.

Where? Somewhere more fun
than the flying pavilion?

Yes. You'll see.

Even though you turned me
into an animal and keep petting me,

you did it to protect me.

Sima Jiao, I guess
you're not completely heartless after all.

What's wrong with these puppet servants?
Are they broken?

These puppet servants are all eyes
for that old fool, Shi Qianlv.

You said it so calmly.

You knew from the start, didn't you?

If I hadn't left him a few flaws to find,

how else would he have lowered his guard?

How long will we be gone?

Will people find out?

I doubt they would dare
to trespass on White Deer Cliff again.

Grandmaster, I'm dull-witted.

I don't know
how to have fun the way Tingyan did.

Don't mention that dead woman again.

Have you found
who spread the news about Liao Tingyan?

Yes.

It was Anxue
from the Three Saints Mountain.

She held a grudge against Tingyan,

so she must have spread
the news to take revenge.

But she's already dead,
so I couldn't get anything out of her.

Sima Jiao,

let's see how much longer
you can act so arrogantly.

CHIYAN CITY

Is Chiyan City the outer perimeter
of the Gengchen Celestial Palace

you mentioned before?

That's right.

The inner area is where the main branches
of the great clans reside.

It is rich in spiritual energy
and ideal for cultivation.

The outer perimeter is a gathering place
for smaller affiliated families,

mostly the families
of the sect's disciples,

- who have lived here for generations.
- Bravo!

There are also common people
who moved here for protection.

So here…

- Bravo!
- …everyone's at a low realm.

- I see.
- Wonderful!

Nice!

- Bravo!
- Bravo!

Again!

- Bravo!
- Bravo!

You have good taste, sir.

- Bravo!
- Bravo!

It's been so long since
I last saw this kind of street scene.

Did you live in a place like this before?

Sort of. It feels a bit familiar.

We have business to attend to here.

If you like, you can eat
to your heart's content here.

- Great!
- All right.

I was talking to the otter.

Grandmaster is so nice to that newcomer.

Let's get something nice to eat.

Why did something inside me just stir?

What is it trying to tell me?
