=Episode 19=

You're not Song Ziyuan.

You're Chu Li.

To keep him alive,

you actually swapped souls with him.

How touching.

How do you know about me and Song Ziyuan?

But I'm afraid your plan will fail.

What are you going to do?

Everyone

must stay in Jinan City.

Who exactly are you?

Soon,

you'll know who I am.

Where...

Where am I?

Chu Li,

you're finally awake.

Chu Li?

Did I...

Shiqi,

stop the carriage.

I need to go back.

Miss Chu Li,

Master ordered me to escort you out of the city.

We can't go back.

- You... - Since Chu Li wants to go back,

then let's go back, Shiqi.

Turn around now!

Looks like

you want to take me down with you today.

You've abused shamanic arts. You deserve to die.

But what did you mean about Yaohua?

Why would she die?

To save you, Song Ziyuan and Yaohua

secretly came to deal with me.

The two of them fought tooth and nail

to get you out of Jinan City alive.

And yet

you swapped souls with Song Ziyuan just to save him.

How deeply moving.

You're saying Song Ziyuan and my mother...

That's impossible.

How could that be?

Has my mother been lying to me all along?

What a pity.

To save a life,

you didn't hesitate to summon the Chu Phoenix Call and reverse time.

But in this lifetime,

without me,

you'll fail all the same.

What are you saying?

What do you know?

We are both shamanesses.

How could I not know?

You think I'm harming people,

but Chu Li,

I've been helping you all along.

Who exactly are you?

What else do you know?

That fool Song Ziyuan

wants to save Jinan City all by himself.

But what can an ordinary man like him do?

He'll fail again and again,

draining your life force.

Only I

can help you.

Lanruo,

who exactly are you?

What do you mean by failure after failure?

Explain yourself!

Sister,

you'll regret this.

You...

What's wrong?

I'm fine.

What did she mean by failure after failure?

Why did she call me "sister"?

(Oh no, the barrier is broken.)

(Someone will be here any moment.)

(3 Days Before the City Falls)

Master, what happened to you?

I found you lying outside this morning,

covered in wounds.

You scared me half to death!

Mrs. Zhao, who was staying with us these past days,

came to see me unexpectedly today.

She said

the young man in white she saw in the woods that day

seemed to be Fusheng.

What?

(No wonder Xia Ying was under a gu curse at the residence.)

(It's because she saw Fusheng.)

(So Fusheng wanted to silence her.)

By the way, Master,

I haven't seen Miss Chu Li or Fusheng since yesterday.

When are they coming back?

(Sister,)

(you'll regret this.)

Hurry! Ride out and go after them!

Chase them? Who?

Prepare a fast horse for me.

Right away.

Miss Chu Li,

we'll arrive in another hour.

Why are you

so quiet today?

Maybe I'm just tired.

I said I wanted to return to Jinan City.

Why didn't you stop me or ask why?

Wherever you go,

I go.

Why would I need to ask?

Master, your wounds haven't healed.

Going out like this may worsen them.

It's fine. Go open the gate.

Understood.

Master!

Yun Hua?

Why are you here?

Go find Chu Li.

Save the Grand Shaman.

What happened to the Grand Shaman?

The Grand Shaman...

(Grand Shaman? Grand Shaman!)

(Wake up!)

(Your inner demon will swallow everyone)

(around you into your memories!)

(Wake up, Grand Shaman!)

Go find Chu Li.

She's the Grand Shaman's daughter.

Perhaps only she

can free the Grand Shaman from her inner demon.

(Should I go stop Song Ziyuan)

(or save Mother?)

Settle her in.

Then send men

north out of the city

to catch up with Fusheng and Chu Li.

Secretly warn Chu Li

to beware of Fusheng.

Understood.

Miss Chu Li.

Why have you come back?

Master was just about to go find you.

Find us?

Where is he?

Miss Yun Hua just came looking for you.

Something seems to have happened to the Grand Shaman.

Master went to see the Grand Shaman.

Miss Chu Li, wait!

Master said to tell you...

to beware...

Beware...

I'll go alone.

Mother!

How can this be?

Mother!

Why are you here?

Li,

you lied to me.

Sir,

wake up.

Wake up, sir.

Miss?

Miss, wake up.

Who are you?

Thank goodness you're awake, miss.

Song Ziyuan!

Song Ziyuan, wake up!

You...

What did you do to him?

I didn't do anything.

I just came back from gathering herbs

and found you both unconscious here.

Song Ziyuan,

you're awake!

Don't tell me you've lost your wits.

Where are we?

Good. You've still got your wits.

I don't know either.

We were just...

Just...

We swapped back?

Right.

What's going on?

Where are we?

What are you two talking about?

Are you two...

lost?

Get up.

Excuse me, sir,

what is this place?

This is Lingshan Village.

Lingshan Village?

I think I've heard of it.

Do you know it?

You two must be from the capital.

Our village

is just a small village on the border of Chu State.

It's only natural you haven't heard of it.

The border of Chu State?

How did we end up here?

(Did Mother do something?)

Are you two lost?

Why not come to my home and rest first,

then figure things out from there?

This way. Follow me.

(Lingshan Village)

Come on in.

I don't have much to offer,

but I can't let you go hungry.

Once you've had something to eat,

you can head out and find your way.

Thank you, sir.

You're welcome.

You two rest a while.

I'll go heat up some food.

Where are we?

Lingshan Village.

I feel like I've heard of it,

but I can't remember.

By the way,

this scene...

Did you see it in your previous life?

No.

That means

we've left Jinan City.

If this is real,

Li,

this time, you'll finally get to live.

This time?

What's all the noise?

You woke me up!

Mother!

Mother?

You're calling me Mother?

Why are you calling me that, miss?

You don't look much younger than me.

Why call me Mother?

What's your name?

I... My name is Yaohua.

What is it?

You're awake.

Did they scare you?

And they are?

This young man and lady got lost.

I brought them home to rest.

Sir,

and you are...

My surname is Chu.

Just call me Chu.

What's wrong with her?

She's not feeling well.

Not feeling well?

Our home isn't much,

but we do have a guest room.

Go rest for a while.

In a bit, I'll have Yan make some food

and bring it over to you.
