Mountain Goddess,

last night, another heart was ripped out.

It must be an evil spirit at work.

I, Li Tang,

pray to you

to bless the villagers with safety

and drive away the evil.

Please bless us!

Strange events have been frequent lately,

with people being killed and hearts ripped out.

They sacrificed me

to seek your protection,

hoping for safety.

Do you have a solution?

We can't

let this evil run rampant,

causing unrest among the people.

Why do you meddle so much?

Yuanjun is indisposed today.

I warn you,

do not disturb her.

The Mountain God is immortal.

How could she be unwell?

She receives the prayers

of the people every day,

both good

and evil.

After hearing

so much negativity,

it's bound to take a toll.

Mountain Goddess,

I pray with all my heart,

[I pray for your divine intervention]

[to make Chen Sanniang, that wretched girl,]

[disfigured and covered in sores,]

[and never be favored again.]

[Mountain Goddess,]

[please bring my father home soon.]

[He's been away on business for so long.]

[My mother and I are worried about him.]

[Mountain Goddess,]

[please show your power]

Please help my cow

get better soon.

The fields need it to work.

Please make that

Wu Big Head die a horrible death.

With him around,

I can't even run my shop.

Mountain Goddess,

I hate him.

I really hate him.

Ji Jiu,

Why are you here?

Ji Jiu.

I heard you're unwell,

so I brought the Moonlight Incense

to light for you.

What have you seen?

What have you heard?

All the pain

and despair you've endured,

I've seen it all,

and I've heard it all.

You must be exhausted

carrying this burden alone.

A mere mortal,

what right do you have to pity me?

Get lost!

Ever since Ji Jiu showed up,

Jin Tong and him

have been at odds.

Whenever they meet,

it's like they're about to ignite.

I've enlightened him for a century,

yet he hasn't changed at all.

His innocence is his strength,

but also his weakness.

If he can be led to goodness,

he'll be just and upright.

But if he strays,

I fear

he'll never return to the right path.

Don't worry.

With us guiding him,

he won't stray.

Yuanjun,

don't you sense

Jin's feelings for you?

I can't ignore them.

He merely

confuses

his reliance on me with love.

One day,

he'll see the truth.

Even if he loves me as a woman,

we're doomed to be apart.

I'm the Mountain God,

embodiment of

thousands of worshippers' will.

I'll never love anyone.

The Mountain Festival is coming.

Will you

descend to pray for the villagers?

Of course.

I must go.

The Mountain Blessing Festival

is held specially for me.

I've never missed it

in the past century.

I won't miss it this time either.

But

your health...

Don't worry.

Tonight,

I'll go to the Purgation Pool again.

I'll be fine.

By the way,

did you find out anything

about Ji Jiu?

I've searched

everywhere,

but still nothing

about his origins.

He's like

some random guy

who just popped out of nowhere.

It doesn't matter.

This man is not simple.

I'll

go and check him out myself.

Which chapter did you read last time?

The last time I read

the romance of the North Ji.

Read.

A hundred years ago,

there was an

unfavored prince in the North Ji State.

who fell in love with his female tutor.

It's such a cliched story.

Then did the prince

abandon the female tutor

for power and the throne?

The prince gave up everything for her.

Eventually, the female tutor died of illness,

and the prince died with her.

It would be better to fight for the throne.

There are always some people in this world

who regard love as everything,

even above life itself.

But love

is the most fleeting thing in the world.

To give up everything for it

is foolish.

I am the fool

you speak of.

I'd give up everything for love.

Quite the romantic.

I don't like this one.

Pick something fun.

I'm a god.

This light is nothing.

You may not need it,

but I want to

do something for you.

Get down!

Let me see

what's really

in your head.

Ji Jiu,

you're my curse.
