Original subtitles

Do you know what consequences there will be

if you damage the spirit vein of demons?

You go in defiance of nature and go against the celestial realm.

I am your consequence.

You traitor!

Sun Wukong!

Why do you betray the demon race?

I'm different from you.

Why do you lie to yourself?

A demon is a demon.

Why do you have to take yourself as a god?

How can you control

the Three Realms?

I can't control the Three Realms.

But I can control myself.

What are you doing?

Since Pangu separated Heaven from the earth,

the celestial and demon realms have been like water and fire.

The demon race wanted to rule the Three Realms.

In order to maintain the balance of the Three Realms,

the former Demon King Wukong sealed 80% of his power

with the Bull Demon under Flame Mountain.

A thousand years later,

Red Boy went against Heaven to save his father.

He gathered resentment and bred demon spirit,

causing the seal to loosen.

Sun Wukong, now the Winning Buddha,

didn't have the same magic power as before.

In order to stop the Demon King from showing up,

he tried to repair the seal.

Wukong returned to the world

in his Dharma appearance.

Journey to the West: Ask Tao

The landlady is so beautiful.

Hello, Ma'am.

Is the food delicious?

Yes.

Come again.

Okay.

Take care.

Okay.

By the way,

the monkey was the Monkey King,

and also the Demon Emperor.

The demon monkey

suppressed the Bull Demon.

He even broke the demon race's barrier

and sealed the spirit vein of the demons.

He caused the current situation that the demon race

is inferior

and has no fixed place to live.

He made the demon race descend to this state.

It was all because of him.

Shut up!

Nonsense!

Who are you to slander the Monkey King?

Who are you?

If the demons didn't kill people,

would Heaven have ordered to recruit demon hunters?

Demon Hunter

Don't go.

You haven't paid yet.

Why is someone making trouble again?

Do you know what this place is?

This is the territory of the demons.

It's just a small trick.

Amitabha.

Each of the sentient beings in the Six Realms of Existence

has their own destiny

and their own luck.

You can't treat them the same.

You recite your sutra,

while I catch the demons.

What I do is none of your business.

Although they are demons,

they didn't do anything evil.

Why do you have to kill them all?

Humans and demons are sworn enemies.

Catching the demons is the duty of a demon hunter.

Don't force me to fight with you.

Are you done?

Who will pay for the damage?

You keep talking about demons.

Stop! Stop!

Demon Hunter

Did you send a message to the hunter of the demon race?

You're dead meat.

How can you be so stubborn?

Why must you catch them?

Why are you so mean to me?

They are demons.

They are born to be subdued.

Hey!

I have a name.

I'm Hua Qing, the last disciple of Patriarch Bodhi,

and the future first female demon hunter.

Patriarch Bodhi?

Did he accept disciples?

You bumpkin.

I knew you'd never heard of him.

Do you know where he is now?

I also...

Wukong.

Remember,

never mention our master-disciple relationship.

I also want to visit him.

My master travels around

and has an enigmatic itinerary.

Even I, his last disciple, don't know where he is.

How could you know it?

Stop!

How dare you run!

Don't kill me!

I have no choice.

The demons have been living a miserable life.

Anyone can bully us.

We also want to live a good life.

Stop dreaming.

A demon is a demon.

You're not born well.

You're wrong.

Humans are born to human mothers.

Demons are born to demon mothers.

They all have mothers.

What's the difference?

Since everyone has their own destiny,

why can't they live in peace?

Heaven has ordered

to send a demon hunter to kill the demons

immediately.

This has something to do with Heaven?

Forget it.

Let him go first.

I think I have a solution.

Do you really have a solution?

Don't you want to know who I am?

Let's go.

My nephew,

did you have a nightmare again?

We have obtained spiritual power from Flame Mountain for generations

to improve our cultivation.

Now the demon spirit is getting weaker.

Plus, Heaven is suppressing us.

It is extremely difficult

to revive the demon race.

It's all his fault.

Sun Wukong has long gotten rid of the demon identity and has become a Buddha.

He has been missing for years.

I'm afraid it has nothing to do with him.

Uncle Jiao,

are you sympathetic to that monkey

because of your friendship?

Of course not.

I'm also very close to your father.

I watched you grow up.

I just don't want you to go astray because of some obsession.

Something is wrong with the spirit vein of Flame Mountain.

Let's take a look.

The flame here is the hottest.

The Samadhi Fire never goes out.

How could this happen?

The demon race's barrier has been damaged many years ago.

The spirit vein was suppressed under an endless cliff.

It's not easy

to restore it to its former state.

Too impulsive.

Magic projection?

You're not a demon from Flame City.

You've had nightmares for so long.

You must want to save the one down there.

Shall we make a deal?

How can I trust you?

The demon you released before

was the spirit vessel Sun Wukong used to seal.

But he didn't expect that the spirit vessel has turned into a spirit.

Once that demoness absorbs enough resentment,

she will break the seal and save your father.

The revival of the demon race is just around the corner.

What will you gain

by doing this?

I have what I want.

I'm just helping you solve a little trouble in passing.

As long as I can save my father...

Nephew,

don't trust him so easily.

Destroying the seal of the demon race

will be punished by Heaven.

From now on,

you'll be his master.

I've blocked his memory.

Can you be gentle?

It hurts!

Are you really the Monkey King?

Where's your magic power?

Where is your golden cudgel?

Are you a liar?

In this world,

everyone brags about themselves.

Can you really negotiate with the Gods in Heaven?

Which God are you planning to find?

They are deities.

How can you negotiate with them at will?

Your Majesty,

who is this monk?

Sun Wukong.

You finally showed up.

We're at the barrier.

That's not right.

Did you do some trick again?

It has nothing to do with me.

Demon, how dare you

act wildly in the territory of the Gods!

I'll kill you!

It's you.

I may not be a God,

but you are a real dog.

Xiaotian Dog.

Sun Wukong.

You look down on me.

Even if you only have 20% of your magic power left,

you can't be so weak.

Are you really Sun Wukong?

Are you really the Monkey King?

He was the Monkey King.

Now,

he's at most a monkey.

It's not your turn to say that.

All right.

Master asked me to wait for you here.

This way.

Let's go.

Is God Yang Jian really here?

Listen to my authentic howl.

In the Three Realms,

who else could own the Xiaotian Heavenly Beast?

Your howl is indeed loud and clear.

Master ordered that

only the Monkey King can enter.

But we are friends.

Let's go in together.

Fine.

Who cares?

Old friend,

we haven't met for thousands of years.

How have you been?

I can't hear you.

Come down.

You come up.

I can't.

Come down.

I'm here to ask you a favor.

Gods and demons have been killing each other for generations.

When will that end?

It's not up to me.

If I can suppress again

the demon spirit that's making unusual moves in Flame Mountain,

can you cut the demons some slack?

The demon race has had nothing to do with you since long ago.

Why bother yourself?

That's universal salvation, dude!

The demon spirit in Flame Mountain is powerful.

Even when you had your full power,

you still had to take all your effort.

Don't worry about that.

As long as the demon race doesn't get the demon spirit,

they will surely protest.

Heaven can take the chance to make a concession.

The two realms will live in peace.

I'll trust you this time.

I will keep this from Heaven for now.

Considering our relationship,

won't you do something to help?

What else do you want me to do?

As you know, I've lost most of my magic power.

Flame City is heavily guarded.

Me alone...

I still need someone I can trust.

Are you serious, Master?

No way, Monkey King.

Did my Master really ask me

to do such a useless thing?

We should take things as they come.

We are now a team chosen by God.

A thousand years have passed.

Why are you still so nosy?

What does the peace between gods and demons have to do with you?

I see.

Is it because you're a demon-turned-god?

You don't want to offend either of your races, do you?

Shut up!

Forget it.

Where is Flame Mountain?

Where is the demon spirit that we need to suppress?

Hasn't Three-Eye told you?

Who are you talking about?

Your master.

Forget it.

Let's get it done so I can go home sooner.

In that case,

let me tell you a way.

Shoot.

Go find Chun Niang.

She's well-informed.

Why didn't you say it earlier?

Let's do it.

Get lost.

I'm not helping you.

How dare you come back?

Chun Niang.

Only you can help now.

You've always protected the demons.

This...

This is a rare opportunity.

It's all because of you

that I can't do business properly.

Do you know how hard it is to get good reviews nowadays?

If it weren't for you,

I wouldn't have been like this.

The demons are wandering around and being hunted down.

Within the demon race,

the demons are stratified.

Outside, they are being hunted

by the other races.

If gods and demons can live in peace,

it would be a great thing.

How is that possible?

All these years,

it's good enough that the demons can live.

Brother Demon,

mind your own business.

The demon race

can't be saved just because you want to.

Benefactress,

you're wrong.

What did you call me?

I've never donated anything.

Look.

This is God Yang Jian...

Yang Jian's Xiaotian Dog.

This is Monkey King Sun Wukong.

With them,

you'd better tell us about Flame Mountain.

We're here to save people with good intentions.

My ancestor asked repeated

in his will

Ancestor of the White Bone Clan

that the disciples of our clan

stop killing innocent people.

Now,

I'm the only one

of the White Bone Clan

who's still holding on.

Rumor has it that Flame City

is the place where rests the century-old spirit vein of the demon race.

But recently

there's something wrong with the spirit vein.

It is said that

an All-Hallow Ceremony to worship the Demon King is being held.

Not you.

All demons are allowed to stay in the city for three days.

If you want to sneak in,

it's a good chance.

Since you know it so well,

show us the way.

I've told you a lot for free.

If it weren't for the fact that you're Brother Demon's friends,

I would have charged you.

Chun Niang,

tell them

where Flame City is.

Brother Demon.

How can you believe them? They're bragging.

Bragging?

They're just a bunch of inferior demons.

Flame City is the place where rests the century-old spirit vein of the demon race.

Not just some inferior demons in your eyes.

Forget it.

You guys should pack up and leave tomorrow.

I just want to live a simple rich life.

Peace between gods and demons?

Revival of the demons?

They have nothing to do with me.

You're radicals.

Don't affect my business.

In that case,

we'll set out tomorrow morning.

Flame City is where the demons all want to go.

There must be other demons who know how to get there.

Let's ask around.

We can't leave demons and gods killing each other,

or killing and hurting the innocent.

You are not demons.

Why do you have to die?

None of your business.

None of your business.

Can this Flame Mountain turn invisible?

If push comes to shove,

I'll go ask Master.

Flame Mountain. Flame City.

When I escorted Master Tang Monk to the west,

we passed there.

Then ask around.

If those people are still stationed,

it'll be harder for me to find out.

Even if you want to die,

You need to know where it is.

The entrance to Flame City is right ahead.

Tonight, the grand Demon King Blessing Ceremony will be held.

It will be lively.

It's the best time to sneak in.

There are so many demons in the city.

If I catch all of them,

how much practice will it bring me?

You suck.

Any demon can defeat you.

You light a lantern in the toilet—

looking for shit.

My disguise can only last a short time.

We must stay away from the crowd

and hold our breath.

Don't let the demons find out.

This is a 1000-year-old pupa of Corpse Worm.

It's most effective to block the breath.

I didn't want to take it out.

It's a waste if you use it.

I...

What are you doing?

Go get your badges checked.

She is a demon hunter.

Why can't she stand it?

Xiaotian.

Is he the Demon King?

Is this the end

of the White Bone Clan?

This is not a ceremony,

nor is it for blessing.

They're absorbing their primordial pill.

Chun Niang.

What's wrong?

Chun Niang.

We can't stay here for long.

Let's find a place to hide.

Okay.

Let's go.

You go first.

Leave it to me.

Uncle Jiao.

Don't worry, Your Majesty.

Leave it to me.

Your demon disguise is gone.

We don't have much time.

Flame Mountain is right ahead.

Since I brought you here,

we can't waste our previous efforts.

There's one last way.

I'll take you in through the illusion.

We only have one last hour.

You traitor!

Why is this stupid monkey so arrogant?

Why did he collapse before I even started?

This is Illusion Incense.

I forgot.

This is for the demons only.

They can't stand it.

Wake up!

Wake up!

What should we do?

If he can't wake up,

will he be trapped in the nightmare of the illusion forever?

Wake up!

Wake up!

Wake up!

Do you have water?

Pour the water to wake him up.

What are you doing?

This...

Go there to look for them.

Chun Niang.

Let me tell you.

If he can destroy the demon spirit in Flame City,

the demons will be safe for generations.

Chun Niang.

If there's a chance,

open a tavern in Flame City.

I may not be able to pay you back

the money I owe you.

Take care.

Monkey King.

Monkey King.

Monkey King.

Monkey King.

Please protect the demon race.

Please.

You must protect the demon race, Monkey King.

Brother Demon.

Brother Demon!

It's all because you said peace between gods and demons

that Brother Demon...

If you can't do it,

you will let you pay with your life.

Buddy,

don't you recognize me?

The whole demon race calls me a traitor,

but not you.

Let's go.

I'm incompetent.

Do you know Sun Wukong?

Yes.

He's unforgivable.

He killed Your Majesty's father

and betrayed the demon race.

Good.

Sun Wukong just sacrificed two more Dharma appearances.

If he dares to sneak into my territory,

even with 720 lives,

I'll take his lives one by one.

This is Flame Mountain where the demon spirit's sealed.

But Sun Wukong is dead.

What's the point of us coming here?

I finally found you after your smell.

Where are the others?

Monkey King and Brother Demon are both dead.

Dead?

Impossible.

The demon seal is about to be lifted.

We don't have much time.

Sun Wukong.

You promised me

that gods and demons can live in peace

and demons can live freely.

Is that true?

Chun Niang.

There's not much time. Just go!

Remember what you promised me.

From now on,

there will be no Chun in the world.

You promised me

that gods and demons could live in peace.

And the demons would live freely.

It's the Red Boy.

Even the heavenly soldiers and generals are coming.

Good for the monkey.

Red Boy.

Your arrogance won't last long.

Bite me.

There is more to come.

Monkey King.

I thought it was known to the Three Realms that the Demon King Jiao was your good buddy.

That was before.

Now he's just a traitor

haunted by the demons.

Can we still save

the two demons?

What are you thinking?

These demons have cultivated for so many years.

Why are they still so innocent?

They could risk their lives

just for a casual promise of the Monkey King.

What they don't know is he is no longer what he used to be.

Remember what you promised me.

Gods and demons can live in peace.

Protect the demons.

Please.

You're right.

I've caused their deaths.

If I hadn't suppressed the demon spirit,

they wouldn't have died.

Monkey King, don't say that.

You didn't do anything wrong.

It's the fault of the Red Boy.

He had to save his father against heaven and caused so much trouble.

We were born as demons.

We should fight for the status of the demons.

You will always be the shame of the demons.

Do something to save him.

That's the Samadhi Fire.

How?

But it's okay.

He was able to

survive from the alchemical furnace of Lord Tai Shang.

It's just demon fire.

Right?

Forget I said it.

The heavenly soldiers in the city have lost their magic power.

We must kill them all.

Master.

Is that you?

Wukong.

Master.

Wukong.

I've got you involved

in the disaster.

I know why you are here.

I have a question for you.

Master, please speak.

If you were given another chance,

would you still destroy your cultivation

to suppress the demon spirit,

even if you'd be called a traitor by the demons for a thousand year,

Heaven would still think you are a demon,

and the people wouldn't recognize you either?

Do you regret it?

I don't know what is right and wrong.

Wukong.

You must follow your heart sometimes.

Only when you uphold your goodness

will you be truly liberated.

Go and do what you want to do.

Thank you, Master.

The spirit vein... the spirit vein is shaking.

Why are you still alive, you monkey?

The demon spirit vein has been suppressed again.

Now no one in the whole Flame City can use their magic power.

You should stop.

Cut the crap.

Your Majesty, look.

What's going on?

Keep an eye on her.

It must be the monkey's trick.

Master.

Red Boy.

How dare you change the fate against Heaven

and release the demon power that's been suppressed for a thousand years without permission?

Do you know

you would make the whole demon race suffer?

Mind your own business.

Three-Eye.

Heaven has its rules.

You're obsessive.

You'd better wake up.

My friend.

Didn't we agree?

As long as I re-seal the spirit vein,

you'll let the demons go.

Sorry, my friend.

The gods and the demons are bound to have a battle.

I can't help it.

You've been using me all along.

You planned to wait for me to suppress the demons' boundaries

and make them lose their magic power.

Then you can slaughter the entire Flame City.

I don't need a traitor to be the good guy.

The demon race led by me, the Red Boy,

will never submit to Heaven.

Kill!

Kill.

Sun Wukong.

You can't save all of them like this.

You're consuming your life.

Stupid monkey.

I'll see how you get yourself killed.

The demoness is the spirit vein that seals the spirit vessel.

As long as the spirit vessel is destroyed,

you can save your father.

Buddy.

I remembered everything.

Brother.

I've dragged the demons into this again and again.

Don't you hate me?

Stop it.

Take her away.

She's the key.

Hua Qing?

That's right.

She was the spirit vessel

you used to suppress the demon spirit vein.

When she absorbs enough curses and resentments

and can't bear the devil inside,

she will disintegrate.

Only Princess Iron Fan's plantain fan

can lift the curse.

You should go to Plantain Cave.

I like your monkey face.

You looked good then,

unlike now.

Now you just look ugly.

Brother.

Brother!

Brother!

Damn it.

Stop the fight.

Plantain Cave

The Plantain Cave in Cuiyun Mountain is sealed.

No one is allowed to enter.

He is the Monkey King.

What are you doing here?

Three-Eye sent you to watch over us, didn't he?

You've lost your Dharma appearance.

If you do something rash again,

you will be destroyed.

Although Hua Qing is a spirit vessel,

she's cursed with a grudge.

If anything happens to you,

the entire demon race will be hopeless.

Does the fate of the demon race

have anything to do with you?

I'm here to help you.

After all, I have magic power.

Are you really the Monkey King?

I'm afraid that our master is in danger.

Please save her.

Monkey King, please.

I thought killing and resentment would awaken him.

What is going on?

You have to wait until he's gathered enough resentment.

I believe you.

As long as I can save my father,

I don't care how many people are sacrificed.

Monkey King.

You are also responsible for the master's calamity.

You sealed our King.

So she became desperate

and used all her means.

Not only did she fail to save the King…

Monkey King.

You've lost all your Dharma appearance

in the battle on the Flame Mountain.

If you're going to save one more person…

-I'm afraid... -I know, I know!

Do you have any other solutions?

No.

Go away.

All right.

-Master. -Master.

Master, you're finally awake. Great.

Sister-in-law.

I took the liberty.

There is one thing

I'd like to trade with you for your life.

You are

still so unreasonable.

Like I asked you to save me.

-We asked... -We asked...

Forget it.

I don't want to owe you a favor.

Say it.

I want to borrow your plantain fan

to help remove the curse of this girl.

I'm afraid

she can't survive from my wielding.

I will do everything I can to help her,

no matter what the cost is.

It's been a long time since I wielded it.

It feels strange.

Are you ready?

Where am I?

What's happening?

The power of thunderstorms here

is several times more powerful than that in the world.

You can't withstand it on your own.

But this is the last of your Dharma appearance.

When I gave up my magic power,

I knew this day would come sooner or later.

I know who I am now.

I am a pawn to be used,

trapped under the cliff with the evil spirits.

I will never know whether I am a human or a demon.

Is this worth it?

Yes.

For the sake of the demon race,

I have to keep you.

The curse has finally been lifted.

Hua Qing.

Hua Qing.

This is the so-called Monkey King,

the Winning Buddha.

Who are you?

You will soon find out.

Princess Iron Fan.

What happened to them?

Mother has lived up to what I expected

and subdued the monkey.

This is what you want.

When I save my father,

you and I will join forces

and we'll change the rules in heaven.

God Yang Jian.

Master?

Xiaotian.

What are you waiting for?

Master.

I don't understand.

Why did you do this?

Xiaotian.

Who in the whole heaven is better than me

in terms of magic power?

How do the people in heaven

treat me?

They gave the wilderness at Guanjiang River as my fief.

The gods in heaven

seem to treat me with respect and dignity.

But they've secretly laughed at

my half-human, half-god lineage.

Father.

I'm here to save you.

Father.

You naughty kid.

Why did you set me free against Heaven?

You've caused me big trouble.

Sun Wukong?

Aren't you already dead?

Dead?

How could I die?

I knew this day would come.

It's the heavenly calamity.

Look what you've done.

You've released the Demon King.

This is a big problem.

I just want to save you.

Besides, aren't you the Demon King that Heaven suppressed?

Stupid thing.

You're out of your mind.

Would Heaven need Sun Wukong to suppress me?

They meant to suppress that monkey's power

and protect the peace of the Three Realms.

Now that you've let out the monkey's power,

there will be a heavenly calamity.

I guess the demon race will suffer too.

Finally, there is going to be a big change in Heaven.

Unless…

Unless

I use the Samadhi Fire

to cultivate the demon elixir,

and regain the demon eye

to restore order in the Three Realms.

Yang Jian.

What are you doing?

Son.

Good boy.

You've done me a great favor.

How dare you use me?

The deal is over.

I helped you get your father out.

I didn't break my promise.

Three-Eye.

Stop there!

I've been waiting for this moment for a long time.

Today

I'm going to reshape the Three Realms.

Sun Wukong!

You traitor.

Monkey King. Monkey King.

Sun Wukong.

Remember what you promised me.

You must protect the demons, Monkey King.

Monkey King.

Stop it.

It's not wrong for you to believe in the equality of all beings in the Three Realms.

But the most important thing for a practitioner is to have no distinction.

You've always regarded your demon appearance as a mistake.

You can be compassionate

whether to gods, men, or demons.

But why do you have a prejudice against yourself?

As long as you have Buddha in your heart,

what's the harm of the demon appearance?

Hua Qing.

Hua Qing.

Come on.

Are you okay?

Yes, I'm fine.

Are you okay?

It's all my master's plot.

He's behind it.

He wants to regain the demon eye,

reshape the heaven

and stir up the Three Realms.

Powerful as Yang Jian is,

you mean the Three-Eye?

Yang Jian with the demon eye

has no match.

I am.

We're too late.

The seal has been lifted.

You finally figured it out after all these years.

You've abandoned me for so long.

I've never forgotten you.

That's good.

I said

Sun Wukong without the demon body

is no Winning Buddha.

You still don't understand.

There is no difference between gods and demons.

It's all about you.

I'm different from you.

Monkey King.

Hua Qing.

Don't go near the demon monkey,

or you will be disillusioned.

No way.

I've always been a spirit vessel to suppress the demon spirit.

I've been running away from my destiny

and have become a demon hunter.

After such a long time,

I've come back to the original point.

It doesn't matter who I am.

The important thing is

I can't run away anymore.

It's time for me to face it.

No!

My old friend.

Did you miss me?

Yang Jian.

You've been planning it for a long time.

That's cunning.

I can't entrust the Three Realms

to you.

You and I are on the same path.

Today

I can still call you "Monkey King" now.

But if you keep standing in my way,

I will be merciless.

Xiaotian!

Buddy.

We're here to help you!

The Three Realms rely on you to survive the calamity.

He actually withstood the calamity with his body.

He's called the demon Monkey King for a reason.

It's been a few thousand years.

Why do you still wear the same look that I hate?

He's talking about you.

Don't eat too many bananas.

You can get diarrhea.

See you in a thousand years.

I'm going.

Master, wait for me.

Master.

How many times have I told you?

Don't let anyone know I'm your master.

It's confidential.

There's no one here.

Master, you are biased.

Why can't I claim you as my master

while Hua Qing can say she is your last disciple?

My last disciple?

Master, this is sexism.

Or are you in love with her?

Nonsense!

She insisted on

being my disciple.

But I knew her destiny.

I told her

to get down the mountain

and close the door for me when she left.

How can you call her my disciple?

If you were given another chance,

would you still destroy your cultivation to suppress the demon spirit,

even if you'd be called a traitor by the demons for a thousand years,

Heaven would still think you are a demon,

and the people wouldn't recognize you either?

Do you regret it?
