[White Horse City]

Has everyone heard and understood what Young Master Mu just said?

Quickly go and find out the whereabouts of Miss Jiu You.

Yes Sir!

Please don't be frantic young sir.

This is?

A puppet in the image of a person.

The mechanisms of White Horse City are truely mystical.

I have long heard of White Horse City unrivalled talent to obtain and combine various spirits energies.

with never-ending mystical spirit formations everywhere.

However in coming here, I haven't actually felt the presence of any spirt energies.

That is right. White Horse City used to be once have the unrivalled talent to obtain and combine.

However, within the city, there was a complete mechanism system

this was considered more convenient than sprint energies.

Ten year ago, I thus made the decree to stop the practice of spirit energies.

and get rid of anything and everything to do with spirit energies.

Why did you do that?

Spirit energies will only bring about misfortunes and disasters.

White Horse City has the peace and harmony it has today, is just because it got rid of spirit energies.

You have only just entered White Horse City, it is completely understandable that you don't understand.

Why don't you ask the lady outside to come in as well.

This roll of painting will probably help answer your questions.

There is nothing to worry about young sir, as you know there is no spirit energies here.

You are all cultivators, what is there to worry about.

Okay. Then I'll ask her to come in.

The Great Ruler

Episode 24

This roll of painting records the history of White Horse City.

The White Horse City of before was once the biggest city within a thousand miles.

Business was booming, the city was flourishing.

However after people started relying on spirit energies everything changed.

Prejudice, hatred, conflicts swallowed up the entire city.

Many people were left destitute and homeless.

Until 10 years ago, when a multicoloured auspicious cloud appeared in the sky

and the water from the border of Eastern Sea formed into a shape of an eye.

Since the appearance of this auspicious sign people also stopped their fighting.

Within the White Horse City, the tragedy caused by spirit energy also stopped because of this.

From then on, I then decreed that no one could cultivate in or use spirit energies.

However it cannot be helped that there would still be some obstinate people that would insist on continuing to cultivate.

I could only decreed for them to be removed.

Only then did White Horse City restored auspicious and harmonious.

You were so stubborn.

I am afraid that's a little bit extreme. There's no right or wrong about the Spirit Energy.

It's about the people that are using it.

There's no evil if the people are kind.

I have witnessed the changing of White Horse City.

I'd rather to believe my own eyes than your words.

You said that the East Ocean has formed an eye.

Not bad.

This makes me think of a story that I heard of when I was a child.

In a lake of Bei Ling, there was a huge eye coming from nowhere.

It looked harmless. But instead, it was absorbing the energy.

After a while, all the plants nearby were dead.

What does Luo Li mean?

I am just reminding you that

drowning in the perfect illusion will lead to a bad end.

Nonsense.

It's a good sign to have a huge eye showing up. My city is a perfect example.

Don't be upset. Luo Li said that for the sake of this city.

Did it appear 10 years ago?

Was there a White Dragon here 10 years ago?

I have never heard of it.

News! News! News!

Miss Jiu You showed up at the rear mountain two days ago.

Rear mountain? Alright.

Thank you, Master. Let's go.

Wait. There were too many strangers lately.

I must check my guards. I shall go with you.

Thank you, Master.

Get to chance to find out if he has Spirit Energy.

Check this out.

Master.

Master.

- Master. - Mu Chen.

When he was giving me the horses, I found out that his Spirit Energy is broken.

I found out that his Spirit Energy is broken.

Master.

You run a tight ship. They love you.

You are flattering me.

My biggest goal is to protect them

and make sure they live a peaceful life.

Master, this is a rural area.

There was no sign of Jiu You.

Did you make a mistake?

Yes.

But, you were wrong.

You are a Spirit Formation Builder.

You can build a strong formation with bear hands. He is unusual.

Anyone who is a threat to White Horse City will end up the same.

Master, you misunderstood us. We meant no harm.

Your Spirit Energy is the biggest harm.

Let's leave then talk.

Luo Li. Don't worry.

I can solve it as long as it's a Formation.

I'm afraid that we don't have much time.

If our energy runs out,

we won't be able to solve it even you know how to solve it.

There's only one way. We must crack it in a hard way.

It will absorb our attack. It's tricky.

Yes.

-Mu Chen, what are you doing? -Breaking it, of course.

Don't try to be a hero. Let me out.

I don't want to a hero. I just want you to be safe.

You selfless jerk. If anything happens to you,

What am I supposed to do alone?

Mu Chen!

So this is the Whispering Power.

Who?

It's me.

Why are you standing? Come here.

Mubai. I have to ask you something.

What's going on? Why you are so serious?

A few days ago, I found a book when I was cleaning your room.

Book?

I have a lot of books here.

It was He Yao's book.

You are talking about this Du Hun Book.

Yes. Why is it with you?

What are you thinking?

You should burn this.

I know.I

We are facing the Heavenly Evil Lord, a strong enemy.

But we know nothing about him.

I am keeping it to get to know it.

So that we have a better chance to win.

But this is too dangerous.

Why didn't you tell me?

You have been doing so much to take care of me.

I don't want you to be worried about me.

Qian'er, I want you to keep secret for me.

Everyone is worn out from protecting Bei Cang.

I don't want them to worry about me.

I don't want to cause more trouble.

Brother Mu Bai.

What?

Brother Shen asked you to go to the classroom. He has something to discuss with you.

I know. I'll be there soon.

Okay.

What does he want?

You shall come with me.

Brother Shen, Sister Sun'er.

I wonder why you asked for me.

Do you remember we want to investigate the Dragon Slaves?

The village I asked you to investigate, what did you find out about it?

Unfortunately, the civilians were damaged by the Whispering Power.

How is the village doing now?

They have become walking deads

when I got there.

More people will be damaged if I didn't do anything.

I didn't want to see them suffer. So ... I killed all of them.

Mubai, are you crazy? Why did you do that?

They were lives.

Did you not want to think of another idea?

They would die immediately if the Whispering Power get pulled out.

Isn't it even crueler to let them watch their family die?

Brother, have you thought about it?

Is it true mercy to let them die consciously or unconsciously?

I know the damage of the Whispering Power better than anyone.

My Liu Land died because of it.

I have witnessed my soldiers

my brother suffering from it.

So I didn't want those people to suffer when I saw them.

Do you think that you did nothing wrong?

What's wrong about killing the people who are suffering from the Whispering Power?

I would do anything to fight Heavenly Evil Lord.

I'd like to be punished if you think I have done wrong.

Brother Shen, you misunderstood him.

The only reason Mu Bai did it is to fight Heavenly Evil Lord.

It might be cruel.

But he was putting them out of misery.

Qian'er, say no more.

There's a price for everything.

It's good enough that you can understand me.

Brother Shen.

I don't regret doing this. Please punish me.

Okay.

This ends now.

I wish you would think twice if this happens again.

Do you need anything else? It not, please excuse me.

The fairy killed the whole village with a fan.

It must be God's punishment.

Mu Bai, wait.

What else do you need?

I think you recovered very well.

I wonder how well you've practiced.

I would like to practice with you.

Tian Lian Jue. Brother Shen is using Tian Lian Jue.

Mubai.

Brother Shen, you went over.

Brother.

Why are you here?

Brother, wasn't it too much today?

I think Liu Mubai's reaction is very weird.

What is weird? Didn't he already explain?

He explained it too well and acted too calm.

How could he be so calm with everything he has done.

Don't you think it is weird?

If there really was a problem

He would have known that you are suspecting him.

I shall keep watch over him from now on.

This is our only way now.

Here. Drink your medicine.

Brothern Shen was over.

Why would he hit you so badly? It was just a practice.

You overthought about it. He was supposed to hit hard.

No. I am not done with him. I will go talk to him later.

Don't go. Listen to me. It's a crucial time.

We must unite instead of causing more trouble.

I am so upset.

Don't mind that.

Like what I said, it's good enough to have you understand me.

I'm tired. I'm gonna go rest.

Rest well.

Come down.

What a sweet couple.

None of your business. Shen Cangsheng is speculating me already.

We must act now.

Now you think of me when you are in trouble.

Then say what we should do.

Shen Cangsheng said Mu Chen is in seclusion.

I don't believe it. We can use this chance to find out.

It's better if we can get two things done at once.

What's the second thing?

Get me out of suspicion for good.

Luo Li. Luo Li, hurry and wake up.

Where are we?

I don't know.

We were trapped by the Spirit Formation.

Spirit Binding Formation. It's Bai Xuan.

It's more complicated than we thought.

Jiu You? Why are you here?

Its good that you are okay. We have been looking for you for a long time.

Jiu You, did you get caught by Bai Xuan too? How did...

It is no useless, don't waste your energy.

Bai Xuan has trapped us here, and you are also watching us.

You are all trapped in Spirit Binding Formation.

Bai Xuan is my father. I am Bai Tong.

Bai Tong is Bai Xuan's son. Why would he do this?

That is right, if it is as Bai Xuan says

where Spirit Energies are not allowed in White Horse City

Then how do you explain Bai Tong

and these Spirit Formations.

These two father and son must have some secret that cannot be told.

However we are now trapped here.

I am hungry and tired. I don't when we can get out of here.

I am so full.

Jiu You. Why are you here? What happened?

And why did Bai Tong give you food?

He is named Bai Tong?

I thought that he didn't have a name.

Every time I talk to him, he doesn't reply.

I thought he was a mute.

What happened?

I was trapped by his Spirit Formation.

When I woke up, I was here.

He disappears a lot.

If he didn't send me food every day I rarely got to see him.

And he doesn't answer my questions.

Why couldn't I find you when our blood is connected?

Do you know how worried we were after we lost you?

Blood connection might go wrong sometimes.

Go wrong?

As far as I know, only people who are connected can cut off the connection.

I'm fine now so stop asking.

Jiu You, we are doing serious business this time.

You ran away and cut off the connection.

Do you know what the situation is like now?

I already said. Stop asking.

Okay. Stop fighting.

The priority now is to break the formation.

Thank you.

I think this is more complicate than we think.

Bai Xuan ambushed us but didn't mean to kill us.

Indeed. We got trapped.

But we didn't get hurt. It must be planned.

But these are just assumptions. We still need to find out the truth.

Isn't that simple? We can just catch Bai Tong.

Catch Bai Tong?

Bai Xuan is his dad. Asking him would be the best.

Jiu You, Bai Tong treated you well.

Are you gonna be this mean to him?

I think Jiu You is right. This plan is the best one.

Mu Chen, you should hide.

Jiu You. Le'ts go find Bai Tong.

Why do I have to stay here?

It's a special time for our school. You must strengthen the protection.

Understood. It's all in preparation.

You mustn't act alone without telling me first.

You must report to me first.

Brother, Liu Mu Bai just went out.

Seems like he is heading to Mu Chen's room.

Huo Feng, what are you doing in Mu Chen's room?

Stop talking so much.

You are the mole in Bei Cang!

Liu Mubai.

Brother, step away.

Mu Chen is in seclusion.

I have set a ban a long time ago, that no one can disturb him.

Why are you here?

I can't believe that you would still suspect me even after all I have contributed to Bei Cang Spirit School.

I will tell you now, that the spy inside Bei Cang Spirit School is Huo Feng.

If you believe me, come chase him with me.

If you don't believe me, don't be in my way.

Once I catch this mole, everything will be out in the open.

Huo Feng?

How could it be him?

He is escaping via the back mountain. There are only two roads to that.

Believe me. Let's go together.

Okay. We will chase him separately.

Remember, once you find Huo Feng, let me know immediately.

Catching him is more important, let me handle the matters here.

Huo Feng! It is indeed you that is the mole.

Tell me! Why are you helping the Heavenly Evil Lord?

Murmuring Power.

What a strong evil power.

Interesting, interesting.

Brother Mubai, why are you not making a move to finish him off?

I will understand him.

But before that, I need your help.

To help me get rid of all suspicion completely.

What help?

Senior Brother.

Are you okay?

Can't believe that Huo Feng would have such great evil powers.

Good thing we didn't let him run away.

Your wound.

It's fine.

Huo Feng was Bei Cang Spirit School's mole.

I'm sorry, Mubai. I doubted you.

It's fine.

There's a mark of the Whispering Power on Huo Feng.

He was He Yao's ally.

Thanks to Mu Bai.

I would have died if you didn't...

You overstated it, Brother Shen.

Turns out the mole was with us the entire time.

We were being reckless.

No matter what, Mu Bai is the hero to find the mole.

You are flattering me.

We are all part of Bei Cang. This is my duty.

This time, I was hurt by the Murmuring Power.

I'm afraid I might need some time in seduction to recover.

I asked the two of you here as I hoped that the two of you will

manage the school while I am in seclusion.

The school is going through an extremely dangerous period so nothing can go wrong during this period.

Do not worry, Senior Brother. We will definitely do the best we can.

Brother Shen, Mubai still has a unreasonable request.

- Just say it. - Senior Brother you are going into seclusion today,

I need to ask you something.

Say. It's about Mu Chen

Sun'er, you shall head back.

I have some things that I need to tell Mubai.

Okay.

Mubai. What I say next you can't tell anybody.

you can't tell anybody.

No one should know about this.

You know. I know.

Okay.

- Mu Chen isn't at school. - What?

What?

We must find Supreme White Dragon in order to resist Black Dragon.

We only know there are clues about White Dragon in White Horse City.

Mu Chen has left the school and headed to White Horse City.

So it's this.

That's why Mu Chen's room was empty when He Feng opened it.

I was worried for nothing.

You must know that you are on your own when I am in seclusion.

Rest assured, brother. I will take care of it.

The Whispering Power inside of you will be gone by 3 days.

I am here to farewell you for future's sake.

You helped me get rid of my suspicion. I will help you after you are gone.

We can say that our debts have been cleared up.

Jiu You, did you leave because of what happened with the bracelet?

No. What bracelet?

The one you left behind.

I didn't like, is that alright? It wasn't meant for me in the first place anyway.

No matter what, don't run away again.

This White Horse City has a strange demonic power.

We are still not clear about Bai Shan's or Bai Tong's motives

Also we have to find White Dragon as soon as possible.

Okay. I know.

I wouldn't create trouble for you next time.

It is not creating trouble, it is just that you disappeared. Both Muchen and I were worried.

Yeah. I know.

Where do we find Bai Tong?

Bai Tong brought back rabbits and fruits every time.

So we might be able to find him in bushes.

How do we allure him back?

Instead of alluring him back, we may as well just catch him.

Let's go.

Pretty impressive to break the Spirit Binding Formation.

I should have been out alreay if it wasn't for your barbeque.

I suggest you surrender now. You don't want to get hurt.

No way.

I told you to surrender. You didn't listen.

You have trapped me for so long. Now you should try what it feels like.

Hurry.

Didn't you tell me to ambush here?

We are just way too good.

Bai Tong, why did you and your father close the city?

We closed it to stop bad guys like you from sabotaging our peace.

Peace? You think that's peace?

There are only youths in the city.

Everyone's face has a weird smile now.

No one is normal.

They are more like delusional.

I saw the huge sea eye on the painting.

The city is not peaceful at all if I guessed it right.

It's full of darkness.

Am I right?

Anyway, you need to leave right away.

You shouldn't have come here.

What you two up to? Are you working for Heavenly Evil Lord?

What are you talking about? Our family has been protecting the city for generations.

We wouldn't do much despicable thing!

What are you thinking? Tell us.

Tell us!

I would have set fire on you if you didn't bring me food all the time.

It's alright if he doesn't want to tell. We will go in and find out.

Hurry.

How is that possible? When did they dig this?

What are you rambling?

Brother Qingshan.

Sister.

You did so much to guard Master Long Kun and protect Bei Cang.

It's alright. It's almost finished.

We only need Long Kun to keep it running.

How is school recently? Going well I suppose?
