<i>♫ I am but a commoner ♫</i>

19

22
00:00:55,936 --> 00:00:57,194
<i>♫ I am but a commoner ♫</i>

23
00:00:57,194 --> 00:00:58,848
<i>♫ I like music and hate intrigues ♫</i>

24
00:00:58,848 --> 00:01:00,326
<i>♫ I used to see hills full of lonely souls ♫</i>

25
00:01:00,326 --> 00:01:03,292
<i>♫ I feel regret for my recklessness ♫</i>

26
00:01:03,292 --> 00:01:07,508
<i>♫ Leaving future generations to review my scribbles ♫</i>

27

35
00:01:29,226 --> 00:01:30,788

00:01:42,174 --> 00:01:45,634

Rou.

44
00:04:29,575 --> 00:04:31,255
He's badly injured by me.

45
00:04:31,255 --> 00:04:33,934
He will be living on borrowed time.

46
00:04:33,934 --> 00:04:38,015
What's the story about that guy?

47
00:04:38,015 --> 00:04:40,414
I'm talking about his arm.

48
00:04:40,414 --> 00:04:41,455
His arm?

49
00:04:41,455 --> 00:04:44,335
I guess that's not his arm.

50
00:04:44,335 --> 00:04:48,795
It's evilly powerful. I saw it for the first time.

51
00:04:49,435 --> 00:04:51,775
Yang Qianhuan, do you have eyes in your back?

52
00:04:51,775 --> 00:04:55,194
I peeked before he left.

53
00:04:55,194 --> 00:04:58,074
Can you turn around and speak?

54
00:05:00,054 --> 00:05:02,534
You were not like this.

55
00:05:02,534 --> 00:05:04,974
I cannot face you.

56
00:05:04,974 --> 00:05:06,775
I do things as I please.

57
00:05:06,775 --> 00:05:08,494
I don't care what you think of me.

58
00:05:08,494 --> 00:05:11,815
I've carefully observed Wei Yuan and Jian Zheng.

59
00:05:11,815 --> 00:05:14,335
Haven't you noticed?

60
00:05:14,335 --> 00:05:16,187
What do you mean?

61
00:05:16,934 --> 00:05:19,734
One of them stood on the watchtower with his back to you.

62
00:05:19,734 --> 00:05:22,614
The other sat on the platform with his back to us.

63
00:05:22,614 --> 00:05:24,015
And we all think

64
00:05:24,015 --> 00:05:28,455
both Wei Yuan and Jian Zheng possess the demeanor of a master.

65
00:05:28,455 --> 00:05:31,294
Get to the point, please.

66
00:05:31,294 --> 00:05:33,575
Based on the information we have now,

67
00:05:33,575 --> 00:05:36,534
that man's arm must be the sealed item from Sangbo.

68
00:05:36,534 --> 00:05:39,934
Exactly, the man in the grey robe is Heng Hui.

69
00:05:39,934 --> 00:05:44,114
As long as we can catch him, we'll find Princess Pingyang.

70
00:05:44,114 --> 00:05:46,934
The Sangbo case just happened a few days ago.

71
00:05:46,934 --> 00:05:50,775
Yet you've investigated the case so thoroughly.

72
00:05:50,775 --> 00:05:53,294
Wait, how come I haven't heard about it

73
00:05:53,294 --> 00:05:55,815
from my fellow apprentices of the Bureau of Astronomy?

74
00:05:55,815 --> 00:05:58,255
Haven't you sought their assistance?

75
00:05:58,255 --> 00:06:02,995
I don't think you're capable of handling cases.

76
00:06:02,995 --> 00:06:06,055
We didn't even dispatch Gold Gongs.

77
00:06:06,055 --> 00:06:10,375
An ordinary Bronze Gong has been working on this case.

78
00:06:10,375 --> 00:06:12,475
A Bronze Gong?

79
00:06:12,475 --> 00:06:13,575
Who is it?

80
00:06:13,575 --> 00:06:15,774
You should have heard of him.

81
00:06:15,774 --> 00:06:19,874
He's famous in the Bureau of Astronomy, named Xu Qi'an.

82
00:06:21,294 --> 00:06:25,655
Xu Qi'an?

83
00:06:25,655 --> 00:06:29,434
I heard of him when I returned to the Bureau of Astronomy.

84
00:06:29,434 --> 00:06:31,135
He's an alchemy prodigy.

85
00:06:31,135 --> 00:06:36,534
I never expected that he would handle the Sangbo case.

86
00:06:36,534 --> 00:06:39,595
Isn't this giving him another chance to stand out?

87
00:06:40,614 --> 00:06:43,815
He's a formidable opponent.

88
00:06:45,494 --> 00:06:47,774
What's the deal with that man's arm?

89
00:06:47,774 --> 00:06:50,815
I don't know. I'm not interested in strange power.

90
00:06:50,815 --> 00:06:53,434
It's not worth paying attention to it.

91
00:06:54,514 --> 00:06:55,494
Listen.

92
00:06:55,494 --> 00:06:59,655
I should take credit for today's battle.

93
00:07:04,755 --> 00:07:09,955
He's been away for several months, and his illness has got increasingly worse.

94
00:07:09,955 --> 00:07:12,275
Should we find him another physician?

95
00:07:13,154 --> 00:07:16,854
Leave him be. Let him die of the illness.

96
00:08:23,215 --> 00:08:28,255
Heng Yuan, I am seriously injured.

97
00:08:28,995 --> 00:08:31,215
My broken arm hurt me.

98
00:08:31,215 --> 00:08:36,214
Heng Hui, it's not too late to stop.

99
00:09:28,475 --> 00:09:30,099
Heng Yuan.

100
00:09:33,674 --> 00:09:36,435
Since I joined the Qinglong Hall at six,

101
00:09:37,595 --> 00:09:40,434
I've always been following you.

102
00:09:42,914 --> 00:09:47,734
You taught me to read scriptures and meditate.

103
00:09:47,734 --> 00:09:51,815
You took care of my daily life.

104
00:09:53,534 --> 00:09:57,915
You treated me like a family.

105
00:10:14,735 --> 00:10:16,403
And now,

106
00:10:20,075 --> 00:10:22,995
I need

107
00:10:23,955 --> 00:10:26,254
a favor.

108
00:10:30,414 --> 00:10:32,455
I want…

109
00:10:35,495 --> 00:10:37,534
I want

110
00:10:39,615 --> 00:10:42,574
to eat you.

111
00:10:43,534 --> 00:10:45,915
I'm eating you.

112
00:10:54,766 --> 00:10:57,091
<i>[Guardian]</i>

113
00:11:01,534 --> 00:11:03,187
Mr. Wei.

114
00:11:38,294 --> 00:11:40,375
What are you laughing at?

115
00:11:42,514 --> 00:11:46,974
No, I'm not laughing.

116
00:11:46,974 --> 00:11:50,194
When we were fighting last night, where were you?

117
00:11:51,274 --> 00:11:54,294
As a Gold Gong, your techniques

118
00:11:54,294 --> 00:11:57,095
have incredibly reached the pinnacle.

119
00:11:57,095 --> 00:11:58,895
I'm just a Bronze Gong.

120
00:11:58,895 --> 00:12:01,895
I can do nothing and drag you down.

121
00:12:01,895 --> 00:12:03,534
You are just a coward.

122
00:12:03,534 --> 00:12:05,815
- No.
- Enough.

123
00:12:09,794 --> 00:12:13,535
Last night, Heng Hui appeared at Zhang Feng's residence.

124
00:12:14,135 --> 00:12:15,375
So, they…

125
00:12:15,375 --> 00:12:18,195
They were injured by Heng Hui.

126
00:12:18,195 --> 00:12:21,814
Last night, the yamen set a trap at the houses of the Minister of Defense and Chief Minister.

127
00:12:21,814 --> 00:12:23,855
Three Gold Gongs

128
00:12:23,855 --> 00:12:26,735
and one fourth-rank disciple of Jian Zheng

129
00:12:26,735 --> 00:12:31,134
failed to capture Heng Hui.

130
00:12:31,134 --> 00:12:32,534
Did anyone find anything?

131
00:12:32,534 --> 00:12:34,694
A broken arm.

132
00:12:35,554 --> 00:12:37,303
I knew it.

133
00:12:37,303 --> 00:12:41,214
Mr. Wei, what rank was the owner of this broken arm?

134
00:12:41,214 --> 00:12:45,635
At least second rank, most likely first rank.

135
00:12:49,015 --> 00:12:52,414
What's the deal with that broken arm?

136
00:12:52,414 --> 00:12:54,695
Is it related to the Heaven Domain?

137
00:12:57,674 --> 00:13:02,054
This matter involves a secret.

138
00:13:02,054 --> 00:13:06,015
I do not know the specifics.

139
00:13:06,934 --> 00:13:09,095
The only thing I know now is

140
00:13:09,095 --> 00:13:12,855
that Heng Hui has been seriously injured and is currently still in the city.

141
00:13:12,855 --> 00:13:14,914
I've already reported the situation to the His Majesty.

142
00:13:14,914 --> 00:13:17,214
Continue the city-wide search.

143
00:13:17,214 --> 00:13:20,914
You continue with your investigation.

144
00:13:20,914 --> 00:13:24,454
Yes, where is Zhang Feng now?

145
00:13:24,454 --> 00:13:27,975
He is under house arrest in his residence under the guise of protection.

146
00:13:27,975 --> 00:13:29,774
I will investigate immediately.

147
00:13:29,774 --> 00:13:31,143
Wait.

148
00:13:31,914 --> 00:13:35,714
Zhang Feng holds a second-rank position. Watch your manner.

149
00:13:35,714 --> 00:13:39,015
Officials of the fourth rank and above can't be subjected to the Qi Observation Technique.

150
00:13:39,015 --> 00:13:40,795
That is the rule.

151
00:13:42,590 --> 00:13:43,655
Yes.

152
00:13:43,655 --> 00:13:48,594
However, a warlock can help you.

153
00:13:51,530 --> 00:13:56,494
Understood. Then Caiwei will go with me.

154
00:13:56,494 --> 00:13:58,259
No need.

155
00:13:58,259 --> 00:14:03,295
A stronger warlock has been waiting for you at the yamen all night.

156
00:14:04,054 --> 00:14:05,879
Waiting for me?

157
00:14:27,814 --> 00:14:31,714
Xu Qi'an, an alchemy prodigy.

158
00:14:33,735 --> 00:14:35,814
I just know some little tricks.

159
00:14:35,814 --> 00:14:40,635
When it comes to alchemy, the Bureau of Astronomy leads the world.

160
00:14:40,635 --> 00:14:42,895
Quite discerning.

161
00:14:43,574 --> 00:14:46,214
May I ask who you are?

162
00:14:46,214 --> 00:14:49,874
I'm Yang Qianhuan, the most outstanding warlock

163
00:14:49,874 --> 00:14:53,635
of the Bureau of Astronomy.

164
00:14:54,554 --> 00:14:58,175
I'm sure you've heard of me.

165
00:14:59,255 --> 00:15:00,839
<i>[Huan]</i>
Huan.

166
00:15:00,839 --> 00:15:02,855
<i>[Qian]</i>
Qian.

167
00:15:02,855 --> 00:15:04,663
<i>[Yang]</i>
Yang.

168
00:15:04,663 --> 00:15:07,255
It's Yang Qianhuan, my fellow apprentice.

169
00:15:07,255 --> 00:15:10,775
He's the only Formation Master in Dafeng.

170
00:15:13,814 --> 00:15:17,694
Mr. Yang, a fourth-rank Formation Master.

171
00:15:17,694 --> 00:15:19,814
I've heard a lot about you.

172
00:15:21,015 --> 00:15:23,534
Nice to meet you.

173
00:15:29,574 --> 00:15:33,975
Mr. Yang, why are you showing your back to me?

174
00:15:33,975 --> 00:15:38,934
It makes me look like an expert.

175
00:15:38,934 --> 00:15:41,054
What do you think?

176
00:15:41,054 --> 00:15:45,294
<i>I think you're a freak.</i>

177
00:16:22,495 --> 00:16:25,555
Mr. Yang, you are right.

178
00:16:26,375 --> 00:16:28,255
What can I do for you?

179
00:16:28,255 --> 00:16:30,139
Catch!

180
00:16:35,334 --> 00:16:36,375
This is…

181
00:16:36,375 --> 00:16:38,435
My book of achievements.
<i>[Book of Achievements]</i>

182
00:16:38,435 --> 00:16:42,814
Yesterday, I helped the Guardians fight a bad man.

183
00:16:42,814 --> 00:16:45,000
That man has a strong arm

184
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:46,430
with evil energy.
<i>[The name of Yang Qianhuan remains undiscovered]</i>

185
00:16:46,430 --> 00:16:48,855
Three Gold Gongs are no match for him.

186
00:16:48,855 --> 00:16:51,334
Fortunately, I took action in the end.

187
00:16:51,334 --> 00:16:55,975
With killing techniques, I turned the tide,

188
00:16:55,975 --> 00:16:59,254
won a victory, and repelled the enemy.

189
00:16:59,254 --> 00:17:03,995
Based on this, I should take credit for it.

190
00:17:03,995 --> 00:17:07,295
I've written the details of this battle.

191
00:17:07,295 --> 00:17:08,979
You can read it.

192
00:17:10,034 --> 00:17:13,515
Just report it to the world truthfully.

193
00:17:20,734 --> 00:17:24,235
Just report it to the world truthfully.

194
00:17:24,235 --> 00:17:25,707
Are you done?

195
00:17:27,135 --> 00:17:30,295
Mr. Yang, why don't you talk to Mr. Wei directly?

196
00:17:30,295 --> 00:17:33,054
I am just a Bronze Gong.

197
00:17:33,054 --> 00:17:36,575
I've talked to Wei Yuan. I can't believe him.

198
00:17:36,575 --> 00:17:39,014
He said you're in charge of the Sangbo case.

199
00:17:39,014 --> 00:17:43,614
Anything must be reviewed by you before it can be announced.

200
00:17:43,614 --> 00:17:48,335
<i>Mr. Wei has slyly put it on me.</i>

201
00:17:50,674 --> 00:17:53,195
Rest assured, Mr. Yang, once I've solved this case,

202
00:17:53,195 --> 00:17:56,455
I will proclaim the truth to the world.

203
00:17:57,055 --> 00:18:01,615
That's good. It's worth waiting for you all night.

204
00:18:02,895 --> 00:18:04,734
I'm leaving you alone and going back to sleep.

205
00:18:04,734 --> 00:18:06,895
Mr. Yang, don't leave.

206
00:18:06,895 --> 00:18:08,135
There's something else?

207
00:18:08,135 --> 00:18:09,974
It's nothing serious.

208
00:18:09,974 --> 00:18:11,934
I just suddenly thought of a poem.

209
00:18:11,934 --> 00:18:14,954
It fits your temperament very well.

210
00:18:19,034 --> 00:18:23,954
I can hold the sun and moon and reach for the stars.

211
00:18:23,954 --> 00:18:28,974
None in this world compares to me.

212
00:18:33,895 --> 00:18:35,895
Wild,

213
00:18:36,615 --> 00:18:40,214
lonely, and invincible.

214
00:18:42,095 --> 00:18:45,735
Great poem.

215
00:18:45,735 --> 00:18:47,815
I came across this verse earlier.

216
00:18:47,815 --> 00:18:52,614
But I've never seen anyone who matches it until today when I met you.

217
00:18:52,614 --> 00:18:54,795
I have an idea. If you like,

218
00:18:54,795 --> 00:18:59,134
I'll present this poem to you as a gift.

219
00:18:59,134 --> 00:19:01,254
Very clever of you.

220
00:19:01,254 --> 00:19:03,575
Since you're sincerely offering it,

221
00:19:03,575 --> 00:19:06,795
I won't refuse.

222
00:19:06,795 --> 00:19:08,960
Let me feel it once more.

223
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:10,815
I can hold the sun and moon and reach for the stars.

224
00:19:10,815 --> 00:19:12,694
None in this world compares to me.

225
00:19:12,694 --> 00:19:14,155
I can hold the sun and moon and reach for the stars.

226
00:19:14,155 --> 00:19:16,110
None in this world compares to me.

227
00:19:16,110 --> 00:19:17,680
I can hold the sun and moon and reach for the stars.

228
00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:19,575
None in this world compares to me.

229
00:19:19,575 --> 00:19:21,480
I can hold the sun and moon and reach for the stars.

230
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,074
None in this world compares to me.

231
00:19:25,014 --> 00:19:27,375
Good poem, indeed.

232
00:19:27,375 --> 00:19:31,095
But I always feel like something's missing.

233
00:19:31,095 --> 00:19:33,834
Your handsome face

234
00:19:38,934 --> 00:19:42,735
Mr. Yang. Since you've accumulated many merits,

235
00:19:42,735 --> 00:19:46,074
I wonder if you'd mind having one more.

236
00:19:47,095 --> 00:19:50,074
If you have a way, tell me right now.

237
00:19:50,074 --> 00:19:54,874
Here's the thing. I need to interrogate Zhang Feng at his house.

238
00:19:54,874 --> 00:19:57,450
Just so happens I need a skilled warlock
like you

239
00:19:57,450 --> 00:19:59,980
to help me discern the truth.

240
00:20:00,595 --> 00:20:06,175
The Guardians can't do anything without the Bureau of Astronomy, can you?

241
00:20:06,175 --> 00:20:08,095
Anyway, I'm in a good mood today.

242
00:20:08,095 --> 00:20:10,415
So I'll do you a favor.

243
00:20:10,415 --> 00:20:13,995
Fine, I'll prepare the carriage. Please wait a moment.

244
00:20:13,995 --> 00:20:16,067
No need...

245
00:20:16,067 --> 00:20:20,135
Close your eyes and lower your head.

246
00:20:32,435 --> 00:20:35,914
I can hold the sun and moon and reach for the stars.

247
00:20:35,914 --> 00:20:39,695
None in this world compares to me.

248
00:20:42,174 --> 00:20:45,774
Found it. That's it.

249
00:20:46,974 --> 00:20:50,535
Mr. Yang, this is…

250
00:20:50,535 --> 00:20:54,555
Who are you? How dare you break in!

251
00:20:55,494 --> 00:20:57,395
I'm in charge of the Sangbo case. I'm here…

252
00:20:57,395 --> 00:20:59,095
Disappear.

253
00:20:59,734 --> 00:21:05,375
Disappear again.

254
00:21:07,135 --> 00:21:09,554
Mr. Yang, this…

255
00:21:10,575 --> 00:21:12,580
Don't worry.

256
00:21:12,580 --> 00:21:16,630
I've set up a formation To transfer them to a quiet place.

257
00:21:22,655 --> 00:21:25,694
How audacious. What are you doing here?

258
00:21:25,694 --> 00:21:29,855
Who are you? How dare you break in without permission.

259
00:21:29,855 --> 00:21:31,514
I'm in charge of the Sangbo case.

260
00:21:31,514 --> 00:21:32,895
Go--

261
00:21:32,895 --> 00:21:34,839
Don't do it again.

262
00:21:35,974 --> 00:21:38,794
Go what?

263
00:21:38,794 --> 00:21:42,275
Go in and talk.

264
00:21:44,135 --> 00:21:48,074
Sorry to bother you. Please forgive me.

265
00:21:48,815 --> 00:21:50,815
You're young and promising.

266
00:21:50,815 --> 00:21:53,895
I hear you've handled the Sangbo case well

267
00:21:53,895 --> 00:21:58,815
and identified the real culprit in Earl Pingyuan's family annihilation case.

268
00:21:58,815 --> 00:22:01,414
Mr. Zhang, you flatter me.

269
00:22:03,460 --> 00:22:05,420
No need for pleasantries.

270
00:22:05,420 --> 00:22:07,670
Ask what you need to ask.

271
00:22:10,214 --> 00:22:14,735
I'm here to get information from you to solve the case quickly.

272
00:22:14,735 --> 00:22:19,214
Mr. Xu, be serious. The case is being investigated by Guardians.

273
00:22:19,214 --> 00:22:23,095
Naturally, you know the case better than me.

274
00:22:23,095 --> 00:22:26,794
Do I have any clues for you?

275
00:22:36,254 --> 00:22:37,395
Mr. Yang...

276
00:22:37,395 --> 00:22:40,914
During the questioning just now, was he being honest?

277
00:22:40,914 --> 00:22:43,135
Not at all.

278
00:22:43,675 --> 00:22:45,254
He's very cunning.

279
00:22:45,254 --> 00:22:47,354
If there's nothing else, I'll return to the Bureau of Astronomy.

280
00:22:47,354 --> 00:22:49,235
Alright, thank you very much.

281
00:22:49,235 --> 00:22:51,934
Sure. See…

282
00:22:54,895 --> 00:22:57,634
Mr. Yang, are you alright?

283
00:22:58,295 --> 00:23:01,375
I'm good. No worries.

284
00:23:06,774 --> 00:23:09,035
I've found Heng Yuan.

285
00:23:34,554 --> 00:23:36,383
What happened?

286
00:23:37,295 --> 00:23:39,755
You're too late.

287
00:23:39,755 --> 00:23:42,354
He is already dead.

288
00:23:43,335 --> 00:23:45,875
He's dead?

289
00:23:45,875 --> 00:23:50,334
Between me and death, he chose the latter.

290
00:23:50,334 --> 00:23:53,695
The evil arm took his life.

291
00:23:53,695 --> 00:23:56,174
I'm eating you.

292
00:24:08,095 --> 00:24:11,995
No, don't kill him.

293
00:24:18,395 --> 00:24:21,514
Heng Yuan is a martial monk

294
00:24:21,514 --> 00:24:23,895
with vigorous vitality

295
00:24:23,895 --> 00:24:26,974
to heal your injuries.

296
00:24:30,135 --> 00:24:32,159
Come on.

297
00:24:33,135 --> 00:24:36,455
You don't want revenge anymore?

298
00:24:36,455 --> 00:24:40,995
No, he is my fellow apprentice.

299
00:24:43,694 --> 00:24:47,274
No, don't kill him.

300
00:24:47,995 --> 00:24:51,034
You once told me

301
00:24:52,655 --> 00:24:55,214
that as long as I avenged you,

302
00:24:55,214 --> 00:24:58,514
all the people in this world could be killed.

303
00:24:59,235 --> 00:25:01,235
Why?

304
00:25:03,074 --> 00:25:05,995
He must not be killed.

305
00:25:05,995 --> 00:25:08,615
He is my fellow apprentice.

306
00:25:08,615 --> 00:25:12,475
He is the person I respect most in this world.

307
00:25:17,335 --> 00:25:19,335
Well,

308
00:25:22,414 --> 00:25:25,014
what about Pingyang?

309
00:25:30,615 --> 00:25:32,239
Pingyang.

310
00:25:35,994 --> 00:25:37,774
Pingyang.

311
00:25:44,235 --> 00:25:46,179
Heng Hui.

312
00:25:47,174 --> 00:25:49,059
Heng Hui.

313
00:25:51,915 --> 00:25:55,395
All the people in this world can be killed.

314
00:25:58,115 --> 00:26:01,095
But Heng Yuan must not be killed.

315
00:26:10,995 --> 00:26:13,874
Heng Hui.

316
00:26:23,575 --> 00:26:25,615
Heng Yuan.

317
00:26:26,575 --> 00:26:30,274
You've always wanted to know

318
00:26:30,274 --> 00:26:32,354
what exactly happened

319
00:26:33,254 --> 00:26:36,295
one year ago, right?

320
00:26:37,815 --> 00:26:41,095
After that, the demon was gone.

321
00:26:41,095 --> 00:26:45,254
I stayed and waited for you all.

322
00:26:47,135 --> 00:26:49,975
Do you have something to say?

323
00:26:49,975 --> 00:26:55,035
Heng Hui left, but he didn't give up on revenge.

324
00:26:55,035 --> 00:26:58,034
He asked me to help him with it.

325
00:26:58,034 --> 00:27:02,734
I would like to tell you all a story.

326
00:27:04,774 --> 00:27:07,734
It took place one year ago.

327
00:27:07,734 --> 00:27:11,594
It's the story of Heng Hui and Princess Pingyang?

328
00:27:17,554 --> 00:27:19,654
One year ago...

329
00:27:19,654 --> 00:27:23,974
Heng Hui first met Princess Pingyang at Qinglong Hall.

330
00:27:23,974 --> 00:27:30,335
In Heng Hui, Pingyang saw the freedom she had longed for.

331
00:27:30,335 --> 00:27:32,394
To evade the marriage arrangement,

332
00:27:32,394 --> 00:27:36,995
they decided to leave the Capital City as soon as possible.

333
00:27:39,246 --> 00:27:41,435
<i>[Prince Yu Mansion]</i>

334
00:27:46,295 --> 00:27:48,010
<i>To successfully leave the capital,</i>

335
00:27:48,010 --> 00:27:51,130
<i>they needed a magic tool
that could shield their traces</i>

336
00:27:51,135 --> 00:27:54,455
<i>to evade the pursuit
of the Bureau of Astronomy.</i>

337
00:27:55,774 --> 00:28:01,414
<i>Furthermore, they also need new household registrations</i>

338
00:28:01,414 --> 00:28:05,614
<i>as well as a channel
to successfully leave the Capital City.</i>

339
00:28:05,614 --> 00:28:11,495
<i>So, Princess Pingyang
asked a trustworthy friend for help,</i>

340
00:28:11,495 --> 00:28:13,855
<i>the legitimate son of Earl Pingyuan.</i>

341
00:28:21,095 --> 00:28:25,554
<i>At that time, Earl Pingyuan and the nobles had long been estranged.</i>

342
00:28:25,554 --> 00:28:28,040
<i>After learning of this through his son, Earl Pingyuan conspired with Zhang Feng</i>

343
00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:30,770
<i>Earl Pingyuan conspired with Zhang Feng</i>

344
00:28:30,774 --> 00:28:35,294
<i>and devised a plan
to send Princess Pingyang away from the city</i>

345
00:28:35,294 --> 00:28:39,254
to strike against Prince Yu.

346
00:28:39,254 --> 00:28:42,354
Where is Princess Pingyang now?

347
00:28:42,354 --> 00:28:44,694
Has Earl Pingyuan forged a new identity
for her?

348
00:28:44,694 --> 00:28:47,210
<i>[Wang Heng, male, Jianzhou, Ms. Zhang]</i>
<i>Princess Pingyang is innocent.</i>

349
00:28:47,210 --> 00:28:50,230
<i>She didn't know about politics.</i>

350
00:28:50,234 --> 00:28:53,334
<i>Nor did she know the wickedness of humans.</i>

351
00:28:53,334 --> 00:28:56,015
<i>A girl with little worldly experience.</i>

352
00:28:56,015 --> 00:28:58,774
<i>A wanderer who has lived
outside the world for a long time.</i>

353
00:28:58,774 --> 00:29:05,555
The moment they decided to leave together, tragedy was already destined.

354
00:29:06,454 --> 00:29:08,755
<i>Some people are malicious.</i>

355
00:29:08,755 --> 00:29:11,040
<i>After leaving the Capital City,</i>

356
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:16,370
<i>they revealed their true colors, intending to insult Princess Pingyang.</i>

357
00:29:16,370 --> 00:29:18,354
<i>Pingyang and Heng Hui fought back.</i>

358
00:29:18,354 --> 00:29:21,740
<i>Ultimately, Heng Hui was killed</i>

359
00:29:21,740 --> 00:29:25,810
<i>and Pingyang committed suicide with a hairpin.</i>

360
00:29:26,435 --> 00:29:28,974
Princess Pingyang is dead?

361
00:29:28,974 --> 00:29:30,734
They?

362
00:29:31,375 --> 00:29:34,095
Except for the legitimate son of Earl Pingyuan,

363
00:29:34,095 --> 00:29:35,335
who else was there?

364
00:29:35,335 --> 00:29:42,535
The other one was Zhang Yi, the son
of Zhang Feng, Minister of Defence.

365
00:29:47,755 --> 00:29:51,095
No, don't.

366
00:29:51,095 --> 00:29:53,674
Stop!

367
00:29:53,674 --> 00:29:55,774
Heng Hui.

368
00:30:00,894 --> 00:30:02,735
Heng Hui.

369
00:30:43,535 --> 00:30:46,835
Since Heng Hui died a year ago,

370
00:30:46,835 --> 00:30:50,114
why did he appear here?

371
00:30:55,655 --> 00:31:00,095
The dead cannot come back to life.

372
00:31:00,855 --> 00:31:04,575
Someone used a secret method
to seal Heng Hui's soul within his body,

373
00:31:04,575 --> 00:31:07,735
making him a walking corpse
without consciousness.

374
00:31:07,735 --> 00:31:12,235
This year, what sustained him was revenge.

375
00:31:12,834 --> 00:31:16,114
It's the revenge for Princess Pingyang.

376
00:31:17,694 --> 00:31:19,834
Who saved him?

377
00:31:19,834 --> 00:31:22,494
What exactly is the purpose behind this?

378
00:31:23,774 --> 00:31:27,375
I have no idea.

379
00:31:28,895 --> 00:31:33,814
In Heng Hui's memory, the related part is very blurry.

380
00:31:33,814 --> 00:31:39,874
He only knew a person used his body to send evil energy to an arm.

381
00:31:41,135 --> 00:31:45,314
Corpse Puppetry, the secret of the Wizard Cult.

382
00:32:00,174 --> 00:32:02,714
It seems that Heng Hui is a vessel.

383
00:32:02,714 --> 00:32:06,900
The person behind it used the Corpse Puppet
to weaken the evil energy

384
00:32:06,900 --> 00:32:09,610
so he could utilize the evil arm.

385
00:32:11,655 --> 00:32:16,214
That's your word. Do you have evidence
for what you just said?

386
00:32:19,934 --> 00:32:23,530
If you do not believe, take the body back

387
00:32:23,530 --> 00:32:26,670
and let the coroner examine it.

388
00:32:34,475 --> 00:32:36,615
Gently.

389
00:32:43,895 --> 00:32:45,655
Found it.

390
00:33:01,518 --> 00:33:03,123
<i>[Just as expected, Heng Hui]</i>

00:43:53,339 --> 00:43:56,483
<i>♫ With you, what's there to fear ♫</i>

490
00:43:56,483 --> 00:43:59,675
<i>♫ Let this life bring trouble again ♫</i>

491
00:43:59,675 --> 00:44:04,923
<i>♫ With you, I can be at ease and unaffected ♫</i>

492
00:44:04,923 --> 00:44:07,959
<i>♫ Fully aware of the world's misery and cold ♫</i>

493
00:44:07,959 --> 00:44:10,071
<i>♫ Only wish to grant you peace ♫</i>

494
00:44:10,071 --> 00:44:14,231

497
00:44:25,467 --> 00:44:28,315
<i>♫ Thoughts linger, unable to disperse ♫</i>

498
00:44:28,315 --> 00:44:30,363
<i>♫ Laughing as I flick my sleeves ♫</i>

499
00:44:30,363 --> 00:44:33,747
<i>♫ I concealed my sorrows ♫</i>

500
00:44:33,747 --> 00:44:38,699
<i>♫ My thin clothes took away ♫</i>

501
00:44:38,699 --> 00:44:41,475
<i>♫ A bit of warmth by my side ♫</i>

502
00:44:41,475 --> 00:44:45,943
<i>♫ Who will accompany me ♫</i>

503
00:44:45,943 --> 00:44:50,163
<i>♫ Comfort me, no need for tears to dry ♫</i>

504
00:44:50,163 --> 00:44:52,611
<i>♫ Casting down my eyes, I sigh alone ♫</i>

505
00:44:52,611 --> 00:44:57,711
<i>♫ Dreams drag on, and yet they break ♫</i>

506
00:44:57,711 --> 00:45:00,983
<i>♫ Fortunately, you came like the wind ♫</i>

507
00:45:00,983 --> 00:45:03,163
<i>♫ Stopping me from frowning ♫</i>

508
