5
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:14,140
I wanted to form a cultivation partnership with Lifei,

6
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:16,170
but I feared that my uncle wouldn't agree.

7
00:01:18,470 --> 00:01:19,620
She panicked

8
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:21,220
and went straight in to ask why.

9
00:01:28,470 --> 00:01:30,620
Since both Lei Xiuyuan and Ji Tongzhou

10
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:32,500
want to vouch for Jiang Lifei,

11
00:01:33,470 --> 00:01:35,700
we can test whether these three

12
00:01:36,270 --> 00:01:37,810
are lying.

13
00:01:39,910 --> 00:01:43,450
My disciple and Jiang Lifei were indeed with me.

14
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,780
Are you going to interrogate me as well?

15
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:04,500
Xiuyuan!

16
00:02:15,620 --> 00:02:16,620
Sir, what is this?

17
00:02:16,830 --> 00:02:19,340
What have I done to offend you?

18
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:22,740
My eyes must have been playing tricks on me just now.

19
00:02:22,900 --> 00:02:24,650
Maybe I was mistaken.

20
00:02:24,710 --> 00:02:25,340
Everyone,

21
00:02:25,550 --> 00:02:26,740
we've found the culprit!

22
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:34,850
Mr. Shi!

23
00:02:35,870 --> 00:02:36,570
Shi Chengtian,

24
00:02:36,870 --> 00:02:38,060
tell everyone about your dealings

25
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:39,020
with the demons!

26
00:02:43,590 --> 00:02:44,300
You're lying!

27
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:46,900
When did I ever collude with demons?

28
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:49,370
This monster-bewitching powder

29
00:02:49,390 --> 00:02:50,370
was found on you.

30
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:51,530
Still denying it?

31
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:52,220
You...

32
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:53,650
Impossible!

33
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:55,410
I used up that powder long ago!

34
00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:57,130
You're framing me!

35
00:02:59,960 --> 00:03:01,340
This is a setup! A frame-up!

36
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:03,970
Everyone.

38
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:06,060
Mr. Shen.

39
00:03:06,270 --> 00:03:06,810
Mr. Shen.

40
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:08,570
He's the one who colluded with demons.

41
00:03:08,830 --> 00:03:10,090
It's got nothing to do with us.

42
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:11,740
We were just trying to make some money.

43
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:13,020
Right, right.

44
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:14,460
That person in red said

45
00:03:14,990 --> 00:03:16,090
that if we drove the beasts mad,

46
00:03:16,640 --> 00:03:17,620
we could

47
00:03:17,640 --> 00:03:19,460
kill them openly and sell them for money.

48
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:22,180
Person in red?

49
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:23,090
Yes, yes.

50
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:29,130
Someone!

51
00:03:29,550 --> 00:03:31,340
Take Shi Chengtian and that man away!

52
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:32,690
Keep them under tight watch!

53
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:34,340
Wait, I...

54
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:36,130
- It's got nothing to do with me.
- Shen...

55
00:03:36,590 --> 00:03:37,690
It's nothing to do with me!

56
00:03:38,430 --> 00:03:39,060
Mercy!

57
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:40,900
It's got nothing to do with me!

58
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:42,370
Have mercy!

59
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:45,810
That person in red Shi Chengtian mentioned

60
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,180
must be a demon Guardian.

61
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:50,620
It's Rakshasa.

62
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:52,900
I fought her last night.

63
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:56,650
So Rakshasa is behind all this.

64
00:03:56,990 --> 00:03:58,340
Demons are cunning and treacherous.

65
00:03:58,360 --> 00:03:59,460
Hard to guard against.

66
00:04:00,270 --> 00:04:01,900
From now on, we need to be extra careful

67
00:04:02,390 --> 00:04:04,530
and watch out for demons sneaking in.

68
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:06,690
Given Shi Chengtian's strength,

69
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:10,970
he couldn't have helped a demon escape the city.

70
00:04:12,590 --> 00:04:14,090
We still need to find out

71
00:04:14,870 --> 00:04:16,010
who the real inside contact is.

72
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:18,660
After last night's city-wide sweep,

73
00:04:18,910 --> 00:04:21,810
the demons wouldn't dare stay.

74
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:22,940
They've probably fled by now.

75
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:24,540
Facing such a massive threat,

76
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:26,890
we must stand together.

77
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:29,770
That was the whole point of this Shanhai Gathering.

78
00:04:30,470 --> 00:04:31,690
Elder Cuixuan! This is bad!

79
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:37,300
Sir,

80
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:39,100
Wuyue Court just sent an urgent message.

81
00:04:39,390 --> 00:04:41,540
A demon spy broke into Hushe Peak.

82
00:04:51,710 --> 00:04:52,450
Sir,

83
00:04:52,790 --> 00:04:55,330
does Wuyue Court have a Hushe Peak?

84
00:04:55,790 --> 00:04:56,420
Quiet.

85
00:04:58,000 --> 00:04:58,860
No more questions.

86
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:05,940
All Wuyue Court disciples,

87
00:05:06,390 --> 00:05:09,330
return with me immediately.

89

Jiang Lifei and Lei Xiuyuan

90
00:05:12,710 --> 00:05:14,100
were my friends at the academy.

91
00:05:14,470 --> 00:05:15,690
I'd like them to stay a few more days

92
00:05:15,830 --> 00:05:16,940
so I can ask how things are going there.

93
00:05:21,790 --> 00:05:22,450
Cuixuan.

94
00:05:27,710 --> 00:05:29,300
Duanming City has just settled down.

95
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,330
We could use skilled disciples to help with defense.

96
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:34,100
Do me a favor

97
00:05:34,350 --> 00:05:36,980
and let them stay a little longer.

98
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:42,130
Fine.

99
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:44,180
You two stay and help.

100
00:05:44,790 --> 00:05:46,370
Once Duanming City is secure,

101
00:05:46,790 --> 00:05:48,180
come back right away.

Causing trouble here while ambushing us there.

105
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:14,740

If anything goes wrong,

107

108
00:06:17,030 --> 00:06:17,660
How is it?

109
00:06:18,150 --> 00:06:18,940
Not bad, right?

110
00:06:23,350 --> 00:06:24,570
Will they suspect something?

111
00:06:25,230 --> 00:06:25,980
Relax.

112
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:27,130
I've cleared it with my master.

113
00:06:27,150 --> 00:06:28,100
He'll play along.

114
00:06:30,790 --> 00:06:33,770
Sorry to drag everyone into this.

115
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:35,420
What are you talking about?

116
00:06:35,830 --> 00:06:37,420
This is something we want to do too.

117
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:39,420
Gelin's right.

118
00:06:40,150 --> 00:06:42,330
We were born into the imperial bloodline

119
00:06:42,790 --> 00:06:44,300
and have been hunted by Longming Sanctuary.

120
00:06:44,710 --> 00:06:46,660
If it weren't for righteous people risking their lives to save us,

121
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:48,300
we wouldn't be here today.

122
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:51,450
Now that

123
00:06:51,470 --> 00:06:52,980
we're seeing such injustice,

124
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:54,690
how could we stand by?

125
00:06:56,590 --> 00:06:58,300
We worked well together

126
00:06:58,350 --> 00:06:59,130
and got out clean.

127
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:04,100
I always thought Mr. Zuo Qiu's talk

128
00:07:04,790 --> 00:07:06,100
about serving the people

129
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:08,100
and purifying the world

130
00:07:08,790 --> 00:07:10,660
was just empty words.

131
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:12,620
Now I see

132
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:14,810
how hard it is to stand up to power

133
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:16,860
and fight for what's right.

134
00:07:17,470 --> 00:07:18,890
Hard as it was, we did it.

135
00:07:19,910 --> 00:07:20,500
Come on!

136
00:07:20,910 --> 00:07:21,810
Everyone,

137
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:23,300
we've triumphed.

138
00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:24,420
Time for a good drink.

139
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:25,890
- Here. - Cheers!

140
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:36,210
What a shame.

141
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:36,690
Here.

142
00:07:36,710 --> 00:07:38,660
These sects are divided.

143
00:07:39,710 --> 00:07:40,980
With a little provocation from the demons,

144
00:07:41,230 --> 00:07:42,810
we fall apart

145
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:43,690
and turn on each other.

146
00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:46,130
News reached my master, Sect Leader Miao.

147
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:48,620
He told Changyue and me to hurry back to Dizang Sect.

148
00:07:51,790 --> 00:07:53,740
My uncle wants me back at Xingzheng Hall as soon as possible.

149
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,180
The demons sent only a single Guardian,

150
00:07:56,710 --> 00:07:58,500
yet they threw Mountain and Sea Sects into utter chaos.

151
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:00,300
We can't underestimate them.

152
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:02,010
He wants me back to train

153
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:03,330
so I'll be ready

154
00:08:03,350 --> 00:08:04,500
for the Sea Calamity.

155
00:08:06,590 --> 00:08:08,100
We barely had time to catch up,

156
00:08:08,470 --> 00:08:09,540
and now you're all leaving.

157
00:08:10,230 --> 00:08:11,250
Who knows

158
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:12,770
when we'll see each other again?

159
00:08:16,590 --> 00:08:18,420
We'll cross that bridge when we get to it.

160
00:08:18,710 --> 00:08:19,620
Next time we meet,

161
00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:21,420
it'll likely be the Sea Calamity.

162
00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:32,810
Before that,

163
00:08:34,230 --> 00:08:36,420
I'd like to ask you all for a favor.

164
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:46,060
Ever since I was little, I've known a girl.

165
00:08:47,710 --> 00:08:50,940
I think she's the most beautiful

166
00:08:51,710 --> 00:08:52,730
and lovely girl in the world.

167
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:57,140
I've always wanted to marry her.

168
00:08:59,470 --> 00:09:01,300
We all know.

169
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,210
You all are the dearest friends to Changyue and me.

170
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:16,660
Before we part,

171
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:18,970
I want you all to witness this.

172
00:09:20,590 --> 00:09:21,140
Ye,

173
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:22,060
- you... - Changyue.

174
00:09:23,870 --> 00:09:24,780
The Sea Calamity is coming.

175
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:26,780
No one knows what lies ahead.

176
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:29,330
Better to cherish the one beside you

177
00:09:30,710 --> 00:09:31,660
than to live with regret.

178
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:35,730
Changyue,

179
00:09:37,510 --> 00:09:38,940
will you be my wife?

180
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:54,210
My head hurts.

181
00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:56,330
I'm going to my room to rest.

182
00:09:58,590 --> 00:09:59,210
Changyue.

183
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:03,610
Changyue.

184
00:10:10,750 --> 00:10:11,610
I'll go check.

185
00:10:33,630 --> 00:10:34,210
Tongzhou.

186
00:10:34,750 --> 00:10:36,140
During the Wanxian Sect's questioning today,

187
00:10:36,180 --> 00:10:37,210
you were quick on your feet.

188
00:10:37,680 --> 00:10:39,610
You're getting almost as good at lying as I am.

189
00:10:43,460 --> 00:10:44,300
Actually,

190
00:10:45,590 --> 00:10:46,780
I wasn't entirely lying.

191
00:10:53,230 --> 00:10:53,850
Tongzhou,

192
00:10:54,460 --> 00:10:56,730
we made that three-year pact back at Lugong Town.

193
00:10:57,300 --> 00:10:58,140
How about we move it up?

194
00:11:00,750 --> 00:11:01,330
Sure.

195
00:11:01,680 --> 00:11:03,060
We should've done this long ago.

196
00:11:03,750 --> 00:11:06,020
But I won't lose.

197
00:11:07,470 --> 00:11:07,940
Tomorrow?

198
00:11:08,820 --> 00:11:09,380
At the Wu hour.

199
00:11:09,990 --> 00:11:10,850
Alright. Enough.

200
00:11:12,460 --> 00:11:13,210
Why fight?

201
00:11:14,110 --> 00:11:14,780
Aren't you tired?

202
00:11:15,820 --> 00:11:17,260
Right now, the most important thing

203
00:11:17,420 --> 00:11:18,780
is helping Ye Ye and Changyue

204
00:11:18,820 --> 00:11:20,090
with their wedding.

205
00:11:20,470 --> 00:11:21,450
If you really need to fight,

206
00:11:21,820 --> 00:11:22,660
wait until it's over

207
00:11:23,100 --> 00:11:24,020
and find a place to settle it.

208
00:11:25,110 --> 00:11:25,690
- Alright. - Fine.

209
00:11:34,420 --> 00:11:35,690
After Fanghu Island,

210
00:11:36,820 --> 00:11:37,780
I suddenly realized

211
00:11:39,100 --> 00:11:40,210
I can't wait any longer.

212
00:11:40,980 --> 00:11:41,810
Waiting any longer

213
00:11:43,180 --> 00:11:44,660
would only hurt you and Gelin.

214
00:11:46,460 --> 00:11:47,450
Time slips away

215
00:11:48,820 --> 00:11:49,810
in the blink of an eye.

216
00:11:51,180 --> 00:11:52,380
I don't want to waste any more time.

217
00:11:55,230 --> 00:11:56,380
I want to be with you.

218
00:11:58,980 --> 00:12:00,540
I want you to be my wife.

219
00:12:00,630 --> 00:12:01,540
- I want... - Enough, Ye!

220
00:12:02,230 --> 00:12:02,970
Stop.

221
00:12:03,830 --> 00:12:05,300
I said I needed time to think.

222
00:12:25,660 --> 00:12:26,210
Gelin.

223
00:12:27,590 --> 00:12:28,260
Changyue.

224
00:12:31,750 --> 00:12:33,810
You should be discussing the wedding with Ye.

225
00:12:33,830 --> 00:12:34,570
Why are you looking for me?

226
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:35,610
Gelin.

227
00:12:35,870 --> 00:12:37,330
Ye and I... I...

228
00:12:37,470 --> 00:12:38,180
Changyue.

229
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:43,140
You seem smart,

230
00:12:43,870 --> 00:12:45,090
but you're really clueless.

231
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:47,780
I used to worry

232
00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:49,020
Ye wouldn't take good care of you.

233
00:12:50,750 --> 00:12:51,900
Turns out I worried for nothing.

234
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:56,020
He takes great care of you.

235
00:12:56,750 --> 00:12:57,730
He's worth marrying.

236
00:13:04,230 --> 00:13:04,900
Gelin.

237
00:13:05,540 --> 00:13:06,940
I let you down.

238
00:13:07,540 --> 00:13:10,540
Before, I was too caught up in my own things.

239
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:12,380
I thought you were still young,

240
00:13:12,590 --> 00:13:14,260
so I kept things from you.

241
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:17,180
You ended up going all the way to the East Sea

242
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:18,450
and suffering so much.

243
00:13:19,510 --> 00:13:20,780
It's all my fault.

244
00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:24,180
I'm sorry.

245
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:27,020
Changyue,

246
00:13:27,660 --> 00:13:28,730
don't worry.

247
00:13:29,710 --> 00:13:31,450
I don't like Ye anymore.

248
00:13:32,510 --> 00:13:33,060
Really.

249
00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:37,660
I like someone else now.

250
00:13:38,540 --> 00:13:40,090
I don't even remember those childhood things.

251
00:13:43,830 --> 00:13:44,420
Gelin.

252
00:13:45,540 --> 00:13:46,780
Listen to me,

253
00:13:47,230 --> 00:13:49,570
liking someone isn't a crime.

254
00:13:49,590 --> 00:13:51,330
You didn't have to run so far away.

255
00:13:51,830 --> 00:13:53,140
I really don't like him anymore.

256
00:13:53,750 --> 00:13:55,020
You don't have to turn him down because of me.

257
00:13:57,660 --> 00:13:58,810
Ye was right.

258
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:01,180
Time slips away

259
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:02,420
in the blink of an eye.

260
00:14:04,110 --> 00:14:05,450
We shouldn't waste any more time.

261
00:14:07,870 --> 00:14:10,090
I genuinely wish you two the best.

262
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:13,090
Unless...

263
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:16,330
Unless, after you get married,

264
00:14:16,590 --> 00:14:17,850
you decide you don't want me anymore.

265
00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:25,780
What are you saying, silly girl?

266
00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:28,180
Talking nonsense.

267
00:14:30,630 --> 00:14:31,970
Always talking nonsense.

268
00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:38,540
No matter where we are

269
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:40,450
or how far apart,

270
00:14:41,230 --> 00:14:42,690
I'll always miss you.

271
00:14:43,350 --> 00:14:46,180
And I believe you'll miss me too.

272
00:14:47,630 --> 00:14:48,810
We'll always be sisters,

273
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:51,540
through life and death.

274
00:15:30,110 --> 00:15:30,690
Gelin.

275
00:15:31,710 --> 00:15:32,330
What's wrong?

276
00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:37,490
Lifei said you went to Yingcui Island.

277
00:15:37,990 --> 00:15:40,090
I thought I'd never see you again.

278
00:15:45,590 --> 00:15:46,940
I thought you were all leaving

279
00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:48,180
and never coming back.

280
00:15:49,470 --> 00:15:50,300
I didn't want you...

281
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:53,300
you all to worry.

282
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:01,300
You're hurt?

283
00:16:10,710 --> 00:16:11,380
Feeling better?

284
00:16:23,870 --> 00:16:24,810
Treasure it that much?

285
00:16:27,510 --> 00:16:30,970
Did some special girl give it to you?

286
00:16:33,110 --> 00:16:34,850
It's the crest of the Jiufeng Clan.

287
00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:45,570
Why no eyes?

288
00:16:46,510 --> 00:16:47,450
Did you lose them?

289
00:16:51,750 --> 00:16:52,780
You want to see the eyes?

290
00:16:53,990 --> 00:16:54,690
Yeah.

291
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:56,570
It would look better

292
00:16:56,710 --> 00:16:57,690
with eyes.

293
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:34,580
This is...?

294
00:17:52,990 --> 00:17:53,730
Now it has one.

295
00:18:02,340 --> 00:18:03,340
What did you do?

296
00:18:10,340 --> 00:18:12,050
I swear by the Jiufeng Clan,

297
00:18:12,990 --> 00:18:14,730
I will never betray Baili Gelin.

298
00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:19,690
Through life and death,

299
00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:21,180
we'll never part.

300
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:25,940
Lu,

301
00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:27,730
are you crazy?

302
00:18:32,470 --> 00:18:33,900
Take it off for me.

303
00:18:35,070 --> 00:18:36,490
Once it's on, it can never be removed.

304
00:18:37,750 --> 00:18:38,490
Baili Gelin,

305
00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:40,730
you started this.

306
00:19:10,550 --> 00:19:11,210
Come out.

307
00:19:15,310 --> 00:19:16,380
My Lord,

308
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:20,340
have you finally seen their true colors now?

309
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:22,730
Stop using the demon clan.

310
00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:24,900
Their situation

311
00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:27,180
is no different from yours 500 years ago.

312
00:19:28,510 --> 00:19:29,770
My Lord, you remember me now?

313
00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:32,210
Your soul has been hiding in a bone-devouring butterfly.

314
00:19:33,230 --> 00:19:34,250
You've waited centuries

315
00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:36,450
for a result, haven't you?

316
00:19:37,470 --> 00:19:38,210
The Sea Calamity is coming.

317
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:40,210
Instead of mutual destruction,

318
00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:41,970
it's better to go home while you can.

319
00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:44,490
My Lord!

320
00:19:53,710 --> 00:19:54,380
Xiuyuan,

321
00:19:54,510 --> 00:19:55,340
thank you

322
00:19:55,340 --> 00:19:56,340
for helping with the wedding.

323
00:19:58,440 --> 00:19:59,210
I only hope that one day,

324
00:20:00,100 --> 00:20:01,900
you can step out of being a stand-in.

325
00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:03,620
But I still have a mission to fulfill.

326
00:20:04,470 --> 00:20:05,970
Until it's done,

327
00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:07,940
I can't afford a single wrong step.

328
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:10,450
Mission?

329
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:13,010
The true king of Gaolu

330
00:20:13,750 --> 00:20:14,490
isn't named Ye,

331
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:15,860
but

332
00:20:17,310 --> 00:20:18,010
Yecha.

333
00:20:21,470 --> 00:20:22,420
That Demon Lord?

334
00:20:23,030 --> 00:20:23,970
In ancient times,

335
00:20:24,790 --> 00:20:26,210
when Yecha was still a Divine Lord,

336
00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:28,970
our ancestors followed him.

337
00:20:29,510 --> 00:20:30,420
A thousand years ago,

338
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:31,450
heaven's wrath descended.

339
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:34,860
The Ye clan was ordered to guard the Central Plains.

340
00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:36,210
Our duty is to find the Divine Lord

341
00:20:36,310 --> 00:20:37,660
and end heaven's wrath.

342
00:20:38,070 --> 00:20:39,290
That is our mission.

343
00:20:39,790 --> 00:20:40,530
So

344
00:20:41,270 --> 00:20:42,770
until it's fulfilled,

345
00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:45,180
I don't even dare to die.

346
00:20:46,100 --> 00:20:46,820
Is the mission

347
00:20:49,230 --> 00:20:50,340
really that important?

348
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:51,860
A true promise is etched in stone.

349
00:20:52,310 --> 00:20:53,380
It can't be broken lightly.

350
00:20:54,270 --> 00:20:55,660
Not in a thousand years,

351
00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:57,380
not in ten thousand.

352
00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:00,940
Oh,

353
00:21:01,310 --> 00:21:02,380
I saw

354
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:04,180
you and Lifei made up again.

355
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:05,050
So,

356
00:21:05,340 --> 00:21:07,100
are you two in love?

357
00:21:08,070 --> 00:21:08,620
I do like her.

358
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:11,420
But I don't know how she feels.

359
00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:14,530
Lifei seems happy enough.

360
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:15,730
It's probably mutual.

361
00:21:22,030 --> 00:21:22,690
Uncle.

362
00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:26,450
I'd like to stay for Ye Ye's wedding

363
00:21:26,990 --> 00:21:27,900
before returning to Xingzheng Hall.

364
00:21:28,310 --> 00:21:33,380
Our highest techniques require cutting off attachments and desires.

365
00:21:35,270 --> 00:21:38,100
If you don't focus on your training,

366
00:21:38,790 --> 00:21:40,380
how will you help your brother

367
00:21:40,750 --> 00:21:41,820
secure the kingdom

368
00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:42,970
and achieve greatness?

369
00:21:43,550 --> 00:21:44,290
Do I have to give up

370
00:21:44,310 --> 00:21:45,730
the one I love to achieve greatness?

371
00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:47,420
Remember who you are.

372
00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:49,290
Can't a prince of the Yue State

373
00:21:49,310 --> 00:21:50,420
pursue the one he loves?

374
00:21:50,790 --> 00:21:52,690
To protect this kingdom,

375
00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:54,580
you must master the Xuanhua Sacred Fire

376
00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:55,620
and attain immortality!

377
00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:57,140
I don't need the Xuanhua Sacred Fire

378
00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:57,940
or immortality

379
00:21:58,230 --> 00:21:59,250
to protect the Yue State!

380
00:22:00,070 --> 00:22:02,100
Jiang Lifei's heart already belongs to another.

381
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:03,940
Can't you see that?

382
00:22:06,990 --> 00:22:08,290
Lifei has feelings for me.

383
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:12,770
At worst, I'll give up my title as Prince

384
00:22:13,030 --> 00:22:14,050
and abandon my path to immortality!

385
00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:15,140
You!

386
00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:16,180
You...

387
00:22:32,510 --> 00:22:33,140
Changyue,

388
00:22:33,750 --> 00:22:36,290
no bride in the world is more beautiful than you.

389
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:39,290
It's just this dress that's beautiful.

390
00:22:40,030 --> 00:22:41,290
Jiao prepared it.

391
00:22:42,470 --> 00:22:43,730
She said

392
00:22:44,310 --> 00:22:46,490
she'd give Lifei one when she gets married.

393
00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:32,900
So beautiful.

394
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:46,380
From the primal chaos,

395
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:47,770
yin and yang were formed.

396
00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:49,970
Love between mortals

397
00:23:50,070 --> 00:23:51,530
is passed down through rites and teachings.

398
00:23:52,270 --> 00:23:53,580
Today, bound by ritual,

399
00:23:53,790 --> 00:23:54,970
they wed before these guests.

400
00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:57,100
They share the ritual feast

401
00:23:57,100 --> 00:23:58,380
and drink the nuptial wine.

402
00:23:58,710 --> 00:23:59,770
With heaven and earth as witness,

403
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:01,690
under the sun and the moon.

404
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:04,730
First bow to heaven and earth.

405
00:24:09,990 --> 00:24:10,660

408
00:24:15,750 --> 00:24:16,380

410

411

Tongzhou.

413
00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:23,860
Wugou invaded the Yue State!

414
00:24:24,100 --> 00:24:25,140
Duantu has fallen!

415
00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:29,100
- What? - What?

416
00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:34,660
Tonghe...

417
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:36,970
Tonghe was captured by Zong Quan!

418
00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:38,620
What?

419
00:24:41,230 --> 00:24:42,180
It was Zhijie.

420
00:24:42,990 --> 00:24:44,730
He held off Longming Sanctuary

421
00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:46,450
so I could escape.

422
00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:48,250
We're going back to Duantu right now!

423
00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:49,490
Don't act rashly.

424
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:52,340
Since Zong Quan showed up,

425
00:24:52,790 --> 00:24:55,250
Longming Sanctuary must have fully mobilized.

426
00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:58,450
Let's return to Xingzheng Hall, gather the disciples,

427
00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:00,100
and go rescue him together.

428
00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:01,530

429
00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:09,450
Are you ready?

430
00:25:14,750 --> 00:25:16,050
If you are, let's move.

431
00:25:16,230 --> 00:25:17,340
The three of us will go to Duantu with you.

432
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:19,290
Ye Ye and Changyue are going back to Dizang Sect first,

433
00:25:19,470 --> 00:25:20,530
then they'll meet up with us.

434
00:25:21,230 --> 00:25:21,690
Right.

435
00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:23,730
Longming Sanctuary is acting against all reason.

436
00:25:24,230 --> 00:25:25,730
We'll report to our sect leader

437
00:25:26,070 --> 00:25:27,050
and join forces with other sects

438
00:25:27,070 --> 00:25:28,290
to stop them.

439
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:29,620
The situation is unclear.

440
00:25:30,270 --> 00:25:31,290
You'll all be dragged into this.

441
00:25:31,990 --> 00:25:32,860
If we can't

442
00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:34,770
watch out for each other in times like these,

443
00:25:35,070 --> 00:25:36,620
what's the point of cultivation?

444
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:38,660
- Right. - Yes.

445
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:07,380
How could this happen?

446
00:26:22,070 --> 00:26:22,690

447
00:26:37,710 --> 00:26:38,290

451
00:26:42,750 --> 00:26:44,420
It was Longming Sanctuary.

452
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:47,900
It was Zong Quan.

453
00:27:13,070 --> 00:27:14,250
Move! Behave!

454
00:27:14,270 --> 00:27:15,250
- Go! - Keep up!

455
00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:16,420

00:28:02,790 --> 00:28:04,180
No survivors.

463
00:28:05,270 --> 00:28:06,660
It's been less than two years

464
00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:07,730
since we heavily wounded Zong Quan.

465
00:28:08,310 --> 00:28:10,210
How did his cultivation recover so fast?

466
00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:12,530
Not just recovered.

467
00:28:14,030 --> 00:28:15,420
He seems even stronger.

468
00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:26,530
He wiped out

469
00:28:27,510 --> 00:28:29,250
the entire Xingzheng Hall in a single night.

470
00:28:30,750 --> 00:28:32,530
What kind of evil art has he been practicing?

471
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:37,860
Is it the Spirit-Devouring Canon?

472
00:28:40,550 --> 00:28:41,820
After Gaolu fell,

473
00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:43,450
Longming Sanctuary used every means

474
00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:44,620
to hunt down the imperial bloodline.

475
00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:47,620
They'll use the same tricks again.

No!

488
00:29:58,030 --> 00:30:00,730
What a touching display of brotherly love.

489
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:10,450
Prince Ying conspired with Xingzheng Hall to usurp the throne.

490
00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:12,010
The Emperor of Yue is dead.

491

495
00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:39,450
What a pity.

496
00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:40,900
You haven't even mastered it.

497
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:43,140
You've only reached the second level.

498
00:30:43,230 --> 00:30:44,010
Otherwise,

499
00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:46,100
you might have traded a few strikes with me.

501
00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:56,820
The law of this world is simple.

The strong rule.

503
00:30:58,750 --> 00:31:00,770

00:36:32,030 --> 00:36:32,650
Uncle.

571
00:36:54,460 --> 00:36:55,300
He'll pull through.

572
00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:05,220
Uncle

573
00:37:05,720 --> 00:37:06,490
Tongzhou,

574
00:37:07,300 --> 00:37:09,820
I pushed you into the fire today.

575
00:37:10,470 --> 00:37:12,970
Will you hold it against me someday?

576
00:37:15,340 --> 00:37:16,090
No.

577
00:37:17,300 --> 00:37:17,820
Uncle.

578
00:37:19,030 --> 00:37:20,300
I won't defy you anymore.

579
00:37:21,550 --> 00:37:22,490
I'll listen to you.

580
00:37:23,470 --> 00:37:24,490
I'll cut off attachments

581
00:37:25,340 --> 00:37:26,300
and master the Sacred Fire.

582
00:37:28,030 --> 00:37:28,610
Uncle.

583
00:37:29,780 --> 00:37:30,700
Don't leave me.

584
00:37:31,420 --> 00:37:31,940
Uncle.

585
00:37:32,510 --> 00:37:33,780
You must live.

586
00:37:35,150 --> 00:37:38,740
Live on for all eternity, in the name of the Yue State.

587
00:37:40,670 --> 00:37:41,260
Uncle.

588
00:37:42,510 --> 00:37:43,130
Uncle.

589
00:37:44,720 --> 00:37:45,450
Uncle!

590
00:37:56,110 --> 00:37:58,450
If you ever feel wronged or unhappy out there,

591
00:37:58,900 --> 00:38:00,050
come back to me.

592
00:38:00,550 --> 00:38:01,820
Forget cultivation if it comes to that.

593
00:38:01,980 --> 00:38:03,010
I'll support you.

594
00:38:05,460 --> 00:38:06,170
Got it.

595
00:38:06,940 --> 00:38:07,490
I'm going.

596
00:38:24,780 --> 00:38:25,340
Tonghe.

597
00:38:26,550 --> 00:38:27,130
Tonghe.

598
00:38:31,670 --> 00:38:32,260
Tonghe.

599
00:38:36,110 --> 00:38:36,700
Tonghe.

600
00:38:50,990 --> 00:38:51,570
Tonghe!

601
00:38:54,030 --> 00:38:54,570
Tonghe.

602
00:38:54,990 --> 00:38:55,610
Tonghe.

603
00:38:56,190 --> 00:38:56,820
Tonghe?

604
00:38:57,420 --> 00:38:58,010
Tonghe!

605
00:39:04,110 --> 00:39:04,860
Tongzhou.

606
00:39:06,150 --> 00:39:09,050
The Yue State and Jingwu

607
00:39:14,550 --> 00:39:15,820
are yours now.

608
00:39:16,420 --> 00:39:17,450
No, Tonghe.

609
00:39:18,340 --> 00:39:18,780
No.

610
00:39:19,030 --> 00:39:19,570
Tonghe.

611
00:39:19,780 --> 00:39:20,380
Tonghe.

612
00:39:21,590 --> 00:39:22,090
No!

613
00:39:23,030 --> 00:39:23,780
Tonghe!

614
00:39:26,340 --> 00:39:27,090
Tongzhou.

615
00:39:28,150 --> 00:39:28,820
Lifei?

616
00:39:29,510 --> 00:39:30,130
Lifei!

617
00:39:31,340 --> 00:39:31,970
Lifei.

618
00:39:32,550 --> 00:39:33,220
Lifei.

619
00:39:33,590 --> 00:39:34,450
Don't be scared.

620
00:39:34,590 --> 00:39:35,420
Be careful.

621
00:39:35,990 --> 00:39:37,650
You're still hurt. Don't get too worked up.

622
00:39:43,940 --> 00:39:45,780
You've been unconscious for five days.

623
00:39:46,110 --> 00:39:47,220
We were all so worried.

624
00:39:47,990 --> 00:39:48,860
Five days?

625
00:40:08,150 --> 00:40:08,970
All this time,

626
00:40:10,030 --> 00:40:11,610
you've been channeling your own spirit power

627
00:40:12,590 --> 00:40:13,450
into me?

628
00:40:17,300 --> 00:40:18,490
It was Gelin and Xiuyuan.

629
00:40:19,470 --> 00:40:20,900
They've been working day and night,

630
00:40:20,940 --> 00:40:22,220
setting up formations to repair your spirit meridians.

631
00:40:24,030 --> 00:40:25,220
Everything happened so fast.

632
00:40:26,510 --> 00:40:27,940
So much at once.

633
00:40:28,670 --> 00:40:29,860
I couldn't even bring myself to come see you.

634
00:40:31,820 --> 00:40:32,490
Scared?

635
00:40:35,670 --> 00:40:37,010
When we first escaped,

636
00:40:37,240 --> 00:40:39,340
your meridians were shattered. You were barely clinging to life.

637
00:40:40,590 --> 00:40:42,970
Thankfully, Xiuyuan kept us all grounded.

638
00:40:44,190 --> 00:40:45,300
Since the Shanhai Gathering,

639
00:40:45,510 --> 00:40:47,340
seeing so many people and spirits die,

640
00:40:47,990 --> 00:40:49,170
I suddenly realized

641
00:40:50,550 --> 00:40:53,780
even the strongest lives are so fragile.

642
00:40:55,030 --> 00:40:56,490
I was afraid we couldn't save you.

643
00:40:56,820 --> 00:40:58,610
Afraid you'd give up and follow your family.

644
00:40:59,860 --> 00:41:00,420
So,

645
00:41:02,380 --> 00:41:03,530
I hid outside for days,

646
00:41:03,550 --> 00:41:04,740
too scared to come in.

647
00:41:05,820 --> 00:41:06,740
Until Xiuyuan said

648
00:41:07,110 --> 00:41:08,050
you'd live.

649
00:41:19,980 --> 00:41:21,220
What does it matter if I die?

650
00:41:24,240 --> 00:41:26,490
I'd rather it had been me.

651
00:41:28,460 --> 00:41:29,650
I'm so useless.

652
00:41:30,720 --> 00:41:32,090
I couldn't protect anyone.

653
00:41:35,670 --> 00:41:37,610
Why wasn't it me?

654
00:41:39,820 --> 00:41:41,650
Why am I the only one left?

655
00:41:43,470 --> 00:41:45,050
Why only me?

656
00:41:45,900 --> 00:41:47,740
Because there is someone who need you.

657
00:41:59,980 --> 00:42:00,650
Xiuyuan.

658
00:42:11,110 --> 00:42:11,650
Tongzhou.

659
00:42:13,110 --> 00:42:14,300
You don't have time to grieve.

660
00:42:15,070 --> 00:42:16,260
Your brother was a great emperor.

661
00:42:17,340 --> 00:42:18,340
Before Duantu fell,

662
00:42:19,340 --> 00:42:21,380
he managed to evacuate most of the people.

663
00:42:22,190 --> 00:42:23,650
But many soldiers were captured

664
00:42:24,420 --> 00:42:25,170
and will be slaughtered.

665
00:42:26,150 --> 00:42:27,220
They are your people.

666
00:42:28,190 --> 00:42:29,170
You have to shoulder the responsibility.

667
00:42:31,860 --> 00:42:32,780
You don't have the right to give up.

668
00:42:33,820 --> 00:42:34,740
And you can't throw your life away.
