Over the past few months,

we’ve been through thick and thin together.

Although our clans have a bad relationship,

it doesn't stop us from being friends.

Friends?

You don’t want my blood anymore?

I do.

But,

I’ll find a way to get it without hurting you.

What if you can’t find one?

Even if the sacrifice fails,

I won’t get Spirit Blood from you.

You will find a way.

From now on,

we’re friends.

It’s so nice.

Do you like it?

Yes.

Come on.

Take the medicine when it’s hot.

I’ll be all right in a few days' rest.

I’ll go get you something to eat.

How is Mu Chen doing?

I haven’t seen him for long.

I’m worried about him.

If I weren’t hurt,

I would have visited him.

Mu Chen is shutting himself in his room for practice.

Shen told us

not to disturb him.

Only he can visit Mu Chen every night.

Shutting himself?

Qian’er.

You must be tired.

Go to sleep.

OK.

Take good rest.

OK.

Qian’er.

What’s wrong?

Senior?

How is your wound?

It’s OK.

Don’t worry.

Sit down.

Mubai.

You killed He Yao,

getting rid of the enemy for North Sect

and taking revenge for Mr. Zhu Tian.

If Mr. Zhu Tian knows in the heaven,

he can die in peace.

Thanks to

the blessing of North Spirits.

Mubai.

How did you know

He Yao built the teleporting formation?

One day before North Sect was guarded,

I saw He Yao sneak into the library

and I followed him up.

I saw he put magic stones in the library

that were used to build the teleporting formation.

Why didn’t you tell us earlier?

He Yao liked to study circles.

I thought he was creating a new one.

Even if I told you,

no one would trust me.

You want to ask

how the sub-stone was sent.

Mubai.

Don’t get me wrong.

He Yao started to build the teleporting formation

before the Sect was guarded.

The sub-stone might have been sent

before the Sect was guarded.

You mean,

the teleporting formation had been built

and He Yao was waiting for the chance.

One night before the battle,

someone looking like He Yao

lured me into the library.

The teleporting formation was already built.

When I was going to break it,

He Yao brought you and the headmaster in

to frame me up.

Looking like He Yao?

I faintly saw someone.

I wasn’t very sure.

But he couldn’t have lured me away

and meanwhile went to

inform you and the headmaster.

So, it wasn’t him.

Seems like

there’s another traitor.

All right.

I’m relieved to see you’re all right.

See you.

Thank you for caring.

The Great Ruler

Episode 23

Senior.

In the last battle,

the Protection Circle was badly damaged.

If we want it to resist the Black Dragon,

we must repair it again.

You.

Yes, you.

I need someone to help when repairing the circle.

Come and help me with it.

Me?

Are you sure?

You look powerful, too.

Would you like to help me

repair the circle?

It’s our bounden duty

to help with our school.

You two.

Come with me.

Sun’er and I have to take care of school stuff.

Miss Mu Ling and Miss Ye are wounded.

They need to rest.

You’re the best candidates.

Go ahead.

I don’t understand you girls.

You were so angry.

But now you’re happy.

I gave the bracelet to Jiuyou.

Why did you?

She liked it.

So, I gave it to her.

We can’t hurry on the journey

unless Jiuyou is happy.

All right.

I gave it to you anyway.

Whatever you do with it.

What are you murmuring?

Nothing.

Let’s go.

You’re weird.

You’ve been walking the whole day.

Don’t you take a rest?

Luo Li.

I spent a long time on making this bracelet.

Don’t give it to anyone else again.

Thank you.

I’ll go find something to eat.

Luo Li.

I bring you some apples.

Thanks.

Jiuyou!

Jiuyou?

Jiuyou?

Why is she missing again?

I’m afraid she went to White Horse City before us.

Why would she?

I’ll search her with the blood connection.

Jiuyou.

Where are you?

Jiuyou.

Answer me!

Jiuyou.

Jiuyou!

What have you got?

The connection was cut off.

Could she be in danger?

I don’t think so.

I think she’s doing it

on purpose.

On purpose?

It’s hard to explain.

Time is running out.

Let’s go find her in White Horse City.

OK.

You must intensify the defense around the school.

Got it?

Yes.

Miss.

Qian’er.

Where are you going?

Sending some medicine to Mubai.

Liu Mubai made great contributions.

I wonder how he’s recovering.

All teachers and students are praying for him.

Thank you for caring.

He’s much better.

I’m relieved, then.

Take good care of him.

OK.

Go.

Why do you look so bad today?

I’m fine.

Thank you.

You’re welcome.

Come.

Put it down.

I’ll take it later.

Go get a map of North Sect for me

from the bookcase.

Will you?

Map?

You haven’t recovered yet.

Why must you be so tired?

North Sect is in crisis.

I should try to help.

Qian’er.

I’m kind of starving.

Could you make me something to eat?

Sure.

I’m going right away.

What’s wrong?

You must take a good rest.

OK.

We had a narrow escape.

We must be more cautious.

Yes. Yes.

Excuse me, did you see

a girl in white?

No.

On our way here,

no one has seen Jiuyou.

If she flew to White Horse City,

she might have reached there.

Young man.

You’re going to White Horse City?

White Horse City?

You must get me wrong.

You don’t look like

you’re going there.

What is exactly White Horse City?

You really are too young.

Ten years ago, White Horse City is

the most prosperous place in the neighborhood.

You could buy everything there, including magic stones, magic circle blueprint,

magic beast, magic plant and magic weapon.

And you could get all intel you want in Beiling.

But that was the story ten years ago.

Since it was locked down,

White Horse City has been open to few people.

Locked down?

Why was it locked down?

No one knows then.

Over these years,

many desperadoes

have tried to break into White Horse City.

Some went in.

But no one came out.

Young man.

This isn’t a peaceful place.

Go back home.

Yeah. Go back home.

This isn’t where you should have come. Go back home.

Kid.

Seems like White Horse City is a dangerous place.

I’m afraid Jiuyou may be in danger.

We can’t wait.

Let’s go.

San.

See?

White Horse City is right over ahead.

Ask our men to be more careful.

This time,

we mustn’t make a futile trip.

Boss.

I hear people go to White Horse City

but never come out.

Are we really risking our lives?

The brave will succeed.

And the cowardly will fail.

Once we get into town,

we’ll make a fortune!

What’s more,

our acrobatic troupe

will be an overnight success!

Yeah.

Ask our men to have a good rest.

We’ll get in town later.

Yes.

Dudes!

Cheer up!

OK!

Get in town

and make a fortune?

Seems like they’re going to White Horse City.

I think I’ll just

follow them.

Who are you?

San.

Is… Is he…

our new

partner?

I haven’t seen him before.

You haven’t, either?

Have you ever seen him?

No.

No?

Boss!

San!

Dudes, go!

Go what!

Hurry and run!

Hurry and run!

[Bai Tong Young Master of White Horse City]

You.

You’re going to White Horse City, too?

You’d better leave.

Don’t force me to punch you.

Why?

Oh, I know.

You’re afraid they might stand in your way to fortune

if they go there.

Don’t worry.

I don’t go there to make a fortune.

I won’t be in your way.

Magic circle?

How rude you are!

Let me out!

Come back!

Let me out!

Do you hear me?

Mubai?

What brings you here?

I haven’t met Mu Chen since I was back.

I’m so boring that I come out for a walk

and talk with him.

You come to see him, too?

Mu Chen is shutting himself for practice.

He doesn’t see guests.

Why is there a magic circle?

I set it.

To protect him.

With you around,

Mu Chen must be safe.

I’ll visit him after he comes out.

Shen.

You asked to see us?

Oh…

Nothing serious.

I just want to ask

if there’s anything unusual

in our school.

I don’t think so.

What do you think, Qingshan?

I’ve been helping Dragon Roc

intensify the Protection Circle.

I don’t know what happened in school.

Senior.

Why do you ask?

The headmaster died.

As his disciple,

I should care more for the school business.

Don’t you think so?

You’re right.

Does Mubai behave abnormally

after he came back?

Abnormally?

Isn’t he recovering?

What do you mean?

Senior.

Are you suspecting Liu Mubai?

Not really.

Just…

something hasn’t been solved yet.

So…

I have some confusion.

What do you mean specifically?

First,

Mr. Zhu Tian had two mortal wounds.

Why?

I still have no idea.

You’re right.

He Yao is dead.

No one knows how Mr. Zhu Tian died.

Second, Mubai was poisoned by He Yao.

But he was nowhere to be found after the battle.

He said

he caught someone from Evilness Clan

and got the antidote.

But Sun’er,

You know He Yao.

No one can

detoxify his poison.

But senior,

you saw

how Mubai fought the enemies.

He killed the traitor He Yao

and broke the teleporting formation of Dragon Palace.

Such are evidences that prove he’s innocent.

I don’t think Mubai betrays us.

Senior.

Your words make some sense.

But I agree with Qingshan more.

Besides, Liu Mubai doesn’t have a reason

to abandon us for the enemies.

Maybe…

I was thinking too much.

But you guys.

You must keep on the alert

and don’t slacken off.

Don’t worry.

We want to find out the truth

and justify Mr. Zhu Tian.

If there’s anything unusual,

we’ll let you know immediately.

OK.

Thank you.

Who?

White Horse City has been locked down.

Please go back.

We come here,

for something urgent.

Everyone comes with the same reason.

I’ve met so many guys like you.

Since you don’t listen,

don’t blame me for being rude.

He’s using a strange magic circle.

Weird!

Let’s go!

Seems like White Horse City is really locked down.

If it’s true,

where is Jiuyou?

Don’t forget Jiuyou can fly.

It’s easier for her to get in town.

We must find her.

But it’s hard to deal with that guy.

Dudes.

Is everyone here?

Yes.

Are you ready?

Yes.

You know what?

Try harder,

I think we’ll soon…

Luo Li. Hurry up!

Wait me over there.

Hurry. Go.

Who… Who are you?

Keep your voice down.

Don’t attract his attention.

He?

The man wearing a mask?

You met Bai Tong?

Bai Tong?

Tell me.

Do you want to get in town, too?

No.

We’re just passing by.

But we hear the town is locked down.

We wonder why.

It’s been locked down for ten years.

You know that?

White Horse City is

a great place with cheers and laughter.

There are endless delicacies,

bottomless good wine

and countless beautiful girls.

For people like us,

that is a paradise

without worries,

pains or annoyances.

Unfortunately,

we can hardly get in there now.

Then how will you get in?

Through the tunnel.

We keep digging

every day.

One day, we will dig through

a happy tunnel to White Horse City.

Well.

Would you like to join us?

Many hands provide great strength.

How long will it take

to finish the tunnel?

Don’t you know perseverance?

You know what?

We dug the tunnel

in the east of town.

If it weren’t blocked by a rock,

it would have got through the town.

We could hear the noise in town beyond the rock.

Unfortunately,

we have to dig a new one.

Hurry if you want to join us.

Or don’t stand in my way.

Who are you?

Where am I?

Want to trap me with such a little circle?

Let me out!

Let me out!

Don’t waste your time. I won’t.

Oh, you can talk?

I thought you were mute.

I don’t want it!

I’m starving.

Where are you going?

I’m not full yet.

What?

I’m not full yet.

Do you know how much you just ate?

I’m not full yet. So what?

Let me out.

Or

stay here and cook for me.

Where are you going?

I’ll eat more than you think.

Why isn’t he here?

Here we are.

Can you do it?

We’ll see.

You know what?

Keep fighting!

White Horse City is right ahead.

I’m telling you.

Just hang in there.

After we dig through the tunnel…

Uh…

Why do we fail again?

Not these.

It’s another harvest year.

Thank God for blessing us.

All letters are from the same place.

Dragon Slave Village I asked Liu Mubai to check.

Who’s there?

Kid.

What’s wrong with you?

I won’t hurt you.

Can you tell me

what happened here?

Kid!

Kid!

I won’t hurt you.

I won’t hurt you.

Kid!

Power of Whisper?

Kid!

Kid!

Kid.

You’re awake?

Kid.

Don’t worry.

I mean no harm to you.

Could you tell me

what happened here?

My father died.

All the other villagers died, too.

We must have enraged God.

So, the Master was sent to punish us.

God?

The Evil Deity again.

You just mentioned the Master.

What does he look like?

He killed all the other villagers

with a fan.

God must be punishing us.

He’s punishing us!

Fan?

Could he be?

God must be punishing us.

He’s punishing us…

Kid.

Kid!

Kid!

Kid.

Kid.

Evil Deity.

You killed innocent people.

I swear,

I will take revenge

on you!

Come and have a look.

So, White Horse City is machine-operated town.

Let’s find someone

and ask about the White Dragon and Jiuyou.

OK.

Sir.

Excuse me…

Young man.

Why are you wearing a sad face?

In our city,

you should be happy!

The tea is my treat!

No, thanks.

Go.

Luo Li.

Don’t you think people in the city are weird?

Seems like no one worries.

It’s too weird.

More than that.

It’s kind of wicked.

Everyone in city

is wearing a sick smile.

And there are no old men or children.

Only young people.

Let’s check over there.

Luo Li.

I suddenly feel so happy!

I don’t know why.

It’s certainly because you’re by my side.

Me, too.

I have never been so happy before.

Possibly because you’re staying with me.

I’ll always be happy!

What happened?

My mind

was full of pictures of our childhood.

So was mine.

But how come?

Something here must be affecting us.

This city is too weird!

Luo Li.

Someone is spying on us.

Here he comes.

Who are you?

Why are you stalking us?

[Bai Xuan Lord of White Horse City]

I’m the lord of White Horse City.

Bai Xuan.

Lord?

Exactly.

It’s my question time.

Who are you?

How did you get in?

You don’t need to answer now.

Why don’t you come to my home and explain?

Please come.

Luo Li.

Wait for me here.

If anything happens,

you can help.

This way, please.

Please sit down.

I think you know that our town is locked down

from others.

I didn’t break in deliberately.

A friend of mine

went missing around your city.

We had no choice, but to get in and look for her.

Please forgive us.

Our town has been locked down for ten years.

How would your friend be here?

We certainly know your rules.

But we won’t leave

before we find her.

Unless…

Unless…

I help you to find her?

Exactly.

If you help us to look for her,

we’ll make it sooner.

If we really fail to find her,

we’ll leave immediately.

What’s your friend’s name?

What does she look like?

She’s called Jiuyou.

She’s a young girl.

She’s in white

and looks beautiful.

But she’s irascible.

Do you hear him?

Go and look for Miss Jiuyou.

Yes.

Don’t panic.
