=Episode 13=

You dared to lure me out?

Seems you want to die in those men's place too.

What manner of demon are you?

I hate all the faithless men in this world.

I was once a palace singer.

I wanted to elope with my love,

but he abandoned me without a thought.

In the end, my long hair was cut off,

and I starved to death in the palace.

All I could do was possess this music score.

I hate them!

I hate them!

But not everyone in this world

is so heartless.

You hurt people without caring whether they're good or bad.

How are you any different from them?

He betrayed me.

The whole world betrayed me.

As long as I exist,

I'll never spare them!

I'll kill you!

I don't think this is so simple.

Wait until it burns out.

Then we'll come back and see what happens.

All right.

Let's go.

Just as I thought, there's a bamboo slip here.

Just like the two we found earlier.

Who on earth is luring demons to do evil in this city?

Let's go back and check on Xizhao first.

Let's go.

You're back.

How can this be?

How can this be?

Miss Chu Li,

you must have a way

to change me back,

right?

I don't want Qin Lang to wake up

and see me like this.

I...

I don't want this.

All right.

I can

make you young again.

I look like myself again!

I look like myself again!

Xizhao.

Qin Lang?

Qin Lang,

you're finally awake.

I missed you so much.

I really missed you so much.

Xizhao,

we'll never be apart again.

Almost all her blood essence

has been drained.

There's no saving her now.

I can't save her,

nor her Qin Lang.

All I could give her was a dream.

Her Qin Lang

went with her.

(Tomb of Xizhao and Qin Lang)

Maybe it's better this way.

They can be together now.

Life is short.

They thought

they could grow old with the one they loved,

never knowing how suddenly

everything could change.

They couldn't be together in life.

Saying they're reunited in death

only comforts the living.

What are you looking at?

Do you think

what I said makes sense?

I think you're right.

Life is short.

Seize the day.

So...

And?

Let's go back.

All right.

(Song Residence)

Chu Li,

let me tell you something fun.

Don't talk to me.

Chu Li,

you've been off ever since you came back with Diviner Song.

Did you two have a fight?

A fight?

What's there to fight about?

No, something's off.

You've been listless for days.

And besides,

you and Diviner Song haven't seen each other in days, have you?

Why are you so talkative?

Can you let me have some peace?

I just don't want you to be bored.

Shiqi.

Why are you calling him?

Miss Chu Li.

Didn't you want to take me as your master?

Learn martial arts properly from Shiqi first.

Shiqi, take him out.

Chu Li, I don't want to learn martial arts.

Wait, aren't you Diviner Song's subordinate?

Why are you listening to her?

(Why think so much about it?)

(My first priority now)

(is to become Grand Shaman.)

(Then I won't have to see Song Ziyuan every day.)

(Master,)

(the singer Lanruo that Xizhao mentioned)

(is now in the palace.)

(She's now Beautiful Lady Lan.)

Get everything ready.

I'm going to the palace.

(Yes.)

Why are you dressed like that?

Aren't you going to the palace?

What are you going there for?

Go back now.

I'm going no matter what.

Either

I go with you openly,

or

I sneak in on my own.

If I get caught...

This way.

Right this way, Diviner Song.

(Who knows how long I'll have to wait?)

(But I never entered the palace in my previous life.)

(This time, at least I get to see it.)

(Lanruo)

Who's this?

This is Diviner Song's attendant.

Greetings, Beautiful Lady Lan.

Raise your head and let me see you.

(It's the same scent as on the earlier bamboo slips.)

Such a fair face.

If not for your hair being tied up,

I'd have taken you for a woman.

Greetings, Beautiful Lady Lan.

No such formalities needed, Diviner Song.

This attendant of yours

is rather interesting.

Xiuxiu, go.

Don't you think there's something

off about Beautiful Lady Lan?

I caught the same scent on her

as on that bamboo slip

bearing traces of shamanic arts.

But Beautiful Lady Lan is inside the palace.

Neither of us can easily investigate her.

Why investigate her at all?

If all these strange incidents

were caused by Beautiful Lady Lan,

she must have come to the palace

with an even bigger plot in mind.

Shouldn't we investigate?

Don't you want to become Grand Shaman?

If you offend Beautiful Lady Lan,

offend the King,

how will you become Grand Shaman then?

If you're worried about me, just say so.

Stop making excuses, will you?

Fine.

Since you know I'm worried,

why do you still have to meddle?

How can I not?

If I told you

this city will be destroyed in 23 days,

would you believe me?

The city will be destroyed?

I don't believe it.

Song Ziyuan,

you clearly have memories of your previous life.

Why won't you admit it?

Just now I said

in 23 days,

Jinan City will be destroyed.

Anyone else would never believe it.

But you looked as if you knew it was coming,

without a trace of surprise.

- You... - Let's go home.

Why are you pretending not to hear me again?

Did you think that would hide it from me?

(I'll beat you to death!)

(There's a fight over there.)

Stop! Stop hitting me!

If you hadn't gone to the physician behind my back,

(Zhao Qing) I'd never have known

the child in your belly isn't mine!

It is your child!

How could it not be yours?

It's mine?

(Xia Ying)

Mind your own business, will you?

Careful, or I'll beat you both!

You're beating your pregnant wife in the street!

Do you think Chu State has no laws?
