[Ever Night 2]

[Episode 10]

Your one decision will affect our nation's future!

If I kill them, would those lackeys from Xiling be satisfied?

I believe our people won't turn against us because of our attitude.

No matter what my attitude is,

those who want to break us down will always have their excuses.

I know...

they have been waiting for so long

for an excuse like this.

Imperial Brother, after the Ghost Festival,

the Heaven Pillar Sect and Xiling are completely in cahoots.

Full Moon State, Southern Jin State, Golden Horde, and Xiling

have completely surrounded our Tang Empire. From a tactical perspective,

we could most likely be attacked from all directions.

What about Grand River State?

Grand River State has always been an ally of the Tang Empire.

But Hill Leader Mo is locked up in the Serene Pavilion.

The attitude of the Grand River State remains ambiguous.

Plus, Prince Long Qing of Yan State has become the military strategist of Golden Horde.

Golden Horde is growing stronger every day.

I think Yan State will probably team up with Golden Horde

to attack our northeastern side.

Imperial Uncle, Yu'er thinks that on this matter,

Yan State will never take action.

Yan State's Crown Prince Chong Ming has lived in our empire for more than a decade.

We basically raised him.

Princess, Chong Ming is after all the Crown Prince of Yan State.

King of Yan has hated us for a long time.

He is definitely the type of person that will take revenge.

Imperial Uncle, King of Yan is already old.

Crown Prince Chong Ming is the one who really holds the power in Yan State.

He has been a friend of mine.

So, I believe in him.

Emperor Father, the enemies are coming.

Maybe we can form an alliance with Yan State.

No way.

- Emperor Father. - Say no more, Yu'er.

It is not just Yan State.

Not one alliance will be reliable

at this critical juncture.

As they are not Tang people,

they have no love or affection for this land.

Whether it is friends of enemies or enemies,

all they will consider is their own self-interest.

So, we can only rely on ourselves to be stronger.

We must strengthen our army.

Let them see that our great Tang army

is capable of destroying all our enemies.

Even if this enemy is Xiling.

Do you all understand?

- Yes, Your Majesty. - Yes, Emperor Father.

Thank you for letting me win.

You knew my mindfulness had suffered damage,

yet you still gave me time to re-adjust myself

which resulted in your defeat in my hands.

How could I take advantage of you?

The fight between us has to be fair.

Thank you for your fairness.

However, after I have adjusted myself,

I will still be taking Little Junior Brother and Sang Sang away with me.

You won't be able to stop me by then.

Even if I cannot do it, Expound Scriptures Leader will be able to.

Then he can come to find me.

I have given you fairness. Please give fairness to the world, too.

Fairness is not for trade.

You'll be sacrificing many lives for the sake of two people.

Don't you think that's shameful?

Doesn't the Tang Academy think that's shameful?

I'm sorry.

The Tang Academy and I have not yet found a reason to give up on those two.

She is the Daughter of Hades!

Have you experienced Eternal Night?

How can you be sure that Sang Sang will bring disaster?

Everything is just hearsay.

How can you be sure that the person that is saying this

does not have a hidden agenda?

When did you arrive? I didn't even know you came in.

Your Majesty, guess what I brought.

I can tell with just one look that this is

the pine nuts from your hometown.

This is great! This is great!

Come, come! Put it over there.

Try guessing what I was thinking while standing there earlier.

Neither one of them can be killed.

Why not?

If Your Majesty

wants to kill Sang Sang and Ning Que,

all the same, you should also kill me.

One is the Daughter of Hades.

The other is the Demon Sect's Saintess.

What's the difference between the two?

Your Majesty is not a heartless man.

Only you know me the best.

Your Majesty, have some tea.

Today, there were many troubling matters. Don't get too stressed.

I will listen to you.

Let me do it, as always.

Your Majesty.

If...

Ning Que is in danger, what will happen to you?

Nothing will happen to me.

Because this boy has nine lives, he will be fine.

What about Sang Sang?

Sang Sang...

You understand the world of the Demon Sect more than I do.

In the Demon Sect, it wasn't about admiration for the King of Hades,

it was out of fear. Fear of darkness.

The night is coming.

Who can stop it?

There is still one more.

Luckily,

Ning Que is by Sang Sang's side.

Luckily, you are by my side.

Come.

Have one first.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

The princess has arrived!

Second Uncle Chao.

There was news from the imperial court that Ning Que and Sang Sang are in the Western Wilderness.

Are they okay?

I don't really know the details.

It was just that when the Suspended Temple knew of this,

they told Xiling immediately. Xiling is now calling out to the various other states

to use everything they have to track the two of them down.

What's His Majesty's attitude?

People will soon hear about the arrival of the Daughter of Hades.

I am worried about the people's reactions.

I wish you and the men of Ichthyosaur Gang can protect Zeng Jing and his wife.

You know that Zeng Jing is on Empress's side.

Ning Que is both your friend and mine.

Thank you for your troubles, Second Uncle.

Send some men we trust to the Zeng Manor.

Protect the safety of Official Zeng and his wife.

Understood.

Second Brother, the people have always said the princess is cold and heartless.

I don't think so.

She does have affection for Ning Que.

However, besides affections, she also wants to please the emperor.

Please the emperor?

His Majesty treats Ning Que as a dear friend.

Of course, he would want to keep Zeng Jing and his wife safe.

But with everyone watching, he cannot express this.

The princess knows what His Majesty wants.

That's why she came to me for help.

His Majesty will praise her if he knows.

The princess is very detailed and calculating indeed.

I wonder if it's a good thing or a bad thing for Tang.

At the moment, what is most critical is not the game of thrones,

but is the reappearance of the Daughter of Hades.

His Majesty didn't express his stand.

He must be waiting for the Tang Academy's response.

Especially Fu Zi's attitude on this...

is the key factor for our fate.

So the only thing we can do now is to wait for the Tang Academy?

Seventh Senior Sister, why don't you call out Teacher?

Teacher.

- Teacher... - Teacher. - Teacher.

Teacher, Little Junior Brother is in the Western Wilderness.

And also Sang Sang.

Teacher, First Senior Brother also went to the Western Wilderness,

but we haven't received any news.

We're all worried.

Yeah, we're all very worried.

- Teacher! - Teacher. - Teacher.... Teacher.

Why so noisy?!

Why can't I have a nice sleep?

In your hearts, do you only care about that rascal Ning Que?

What's with Teacher?

Why is he so grumpy?

Little Junior Brother and First Senior Brother still haven't returned.

Teacher must be feeling very frustrated on the inside.

But no matter how frustrated, he still has to make a decision.

I believe Teacher. He won't abandon Little Junior Brother.

Teacher is so hungry to death now.

Does anyone still care about my life or death?

Teacher, we'll get cooking now.

Yeah, yeah! We'll go fix supper.

I have always been a cowardly person

as I couldn't comprehend certain things.

Hence, I remained undecided.

Because of the uncertainty that the future brings,

I didn't want to entangle myself in the fate of that little girl.

Manman, back then, even though it was against your nature,

you were willing to target a helpless girl.

Now, you're threatening with your life to stop me from making a move.

I'm guessing that you, too, must have seen that piece of shadow.

Your Excellency Shrine Leader, the Golden Compass that was given to the Suspended Temple guards by the Expound Scriptures Leader has suddenly stopped working.

The Daughter of Hades and Ning Que are missing.

She can't hide her trace for much longer.

Take the Xiling Cavalry to the Western Wilderness right away.

Work together with the Heaven Pillar to take action.

Also,

summon the Grand Priestess of Justice Ye Hongyu to hunt down and kill the Daughter of Hades.

But the Grand Priestess of Justice is a lone wolf.

Would she go to the Western Wilderness?

She is the Daoism Maniac.

She would surely understand the danger the Daughter of Hades brings to this world.

But she and Ning Que are also old friends.

This... won't it...

Take your men and work with Ye Hongyu on this.

If she wavers,

then we can have our Grand Priestess of Justice die there in the Western Wilderness.

I know what you're thinking.

The Shrine Leader ordered me to the Western Wilderness to kill the Daughter of Hades.

I know.

For you, it's really hard to do.

Not hard.

I will still pull out my sword if I see them again.

Why won't you acknowledge it?

It's difficult, even for me.

I just don't know how it will go when I see them again.

If their story ends,

I will feel a little bit regretful for them.

Follow your heart.

The light shines on both good and bad people.

As long as you follow your heart,

the light will tell you where to go.

Go on.

Miss Bookworm Maniac.

Greetings, Senior Brother Ye Qing.

How is everything?

I'm good.

I am passing a word to you from Ye Hongyu.

Ning Que and Sang Sang have been seen in the Wilderness.

Really?

I knew that the two of them wouldn't die.

I knew that he'd be safe and sound.

Also,

I think you need to know that Ye Hongyu is heading to the Wilderness

to kill the Daughter of Hades under the instruction of the Shrine Leader.

So that's why she doesn't dare to come and see me.

Ye Hongyu has her duty.

I know.

She's the Grand Priestess of Justice of Xiling.

She is the Daoism Maniac that believes in the light more than anyone else.

She has her responsibility and duty.

But in the end, who truly knows what kind of choice one makes.

Sang Sang is the Daughter of Hades.

She will bring disaster to the world.

It's not that fragile and kind Sang Sang who will bring disaster to the world,

but every person with evil thoughts.

Power, desire,

killing, war.

None of these are the real righteous path.

But some people are using the name of Light,

borrowing the light of righteousness to hide their own darkness and do evil.

I think Ye Hongyu will figure that out one day.

All right. I have delivered the word.

Take care, Miss Bookworm Maniac. Farewell.

Open the door.

A once steadfast disciple of Xiling,

Mo Shanshan has abandoned her faith in Xiling.

Can it only be because she likes Ning Que?

I don't think so.

Black Thingy, we will be staying in Chaoyang City for a while.

Stay here in the mountains and wait for us to return.

Don't worry, I won't abandon you.

You can guard our carriage for us in the mountains.

Okay, okay.

Okay.

We're leaving. Be good.

What are you thinking about?

I am thinking if the cold yin breath

is a mark that the King of Hades has left in me,

does it mean that the Daughter of Hades wakes up a little bit every time I relapse?

That could be.

I am afraid that in that moment that she truly wakes up,

I will disappear.

Sang Sang will disappear.

This world will be destroyed because of me.

Will you... also get hurt because of me?

I don't know.

But I believe that Teacher will have other ways to save you.

Do you really believe in the Tang Academy that much?

I told you.

If this is the last chance we have, we should give it to the Teacher.

Especially now, since the whole world has abandoned us.

If we can't even trust Teacher, Senior Brothers, and Sisters,

we'll be even lonelier.

When we return to the Tang Academy, we can happily cook,

write, feed the big white goose.

Just thinking about it, Second Senior Brother adores you so much.

First Senior Brother is so great. And there is Chen Pipi and Teacher.

But have you ever considered,

if I really am a threat to the world,

a threat to everyone's lives,

would Fu Zi and the Tang Academy still help me?

What's wrong?

Is it really that serious?

Your hands are cold. Feels good to hold them.

Young Master, what are you doing?

From now on, leave all your concerns behind.

You are not a bad omen and you will not cause my death.

I will live a long life and so will you.

If you really want to die, then I have no other choice.

I can only follow you in death.

Hush.

You must live on well.

If you die,

how can I possibly live?

Didn't you promise me? You have always kept your promises.

You are not allowed to leave me again.

As long as I'm alive,

you are not allowed to die.

Let's go.

Let's go.

[Chaoyang City]

Chaoyang City.

So this is the capital of Full Moon State.

Quite different from our Tang Empire's capital, isn't it?

Yes. There are no guards and no walls at all.

Absolutely no defenses. It doesn't look at all like a capital city.

Full Moon State is actually just a laidback and peaceful country.

If they didn't have the support of Xiling and the Suspended Temple,

there wouldn't even be a country now.

That's why the First Senior Brother told us to come here.

Not only are there scriptures here, but it also seems easy to hide out in here.

The first rule of the Tang Academy, follow First Senior Brother instructions

and everything will go well; you will get everything you wish for.

[Wanted]

Don't move.

[Chaoyang City]

Let's go.

Young Master, do you think that portrait even looks like me?

[Wanted]

It's all right. It looks better than you.

How so?

The eyes are smaller than mine. The mouth is bigger than mine.

The face shape though, it is pretty similar.

It's not hard to draw your face.

Simply get a pancake and copy the shape.

I'm hungry.

Hungry?

Let's find a place to settle down. Come on.

There's no one in this house.

It's so flimsy.

Haunted house. No way, no way.

A haunted house is actually the safest.

That's right. Other than the Daughter of Hades, who else would dare come here?

Yeah.

It probably is a treat that the King of Hades has specially prepared for us.

Let's go.

It's fine. He's dead.

Let's go inside the house.

Useless wretch! Why are you following us? Scram!

Let's go.

It's really a haunted house.

I guess it still seems safe.

No matter, at least, we got a home now.

Home is where Young Master is.

Sit down. I'll tidy up.

It's fine. This can come in handy.

This is the treasure that will protect this house.

Let's wash your feet.

Warm them up.

You are sitting on my clothes.

Young Master, we are running out of winter jujube.

Have some pinenuts first then.

I will go buy you some tomorrow.

Young Master, what are you writing?

I am writing a "Fu" character (T/N: "Fu" means luck. A talisman with a Fu character will bring luck to the house)

Fu character is good.

There was a dead person in the yard after all.

You better watch out for the wild ghosts and lonely souls at night!

Even ghosts would have to be afraid of me.

You only just finished writing it, why are you tossing it away?

Are you done washing? If you are, then get ready for bed.

What about you?

Master Qishan said you need to read the scriptures nonstop.

I will go and borrow some for you in a bit.

Borrow? You are not familiar with this place, who are you going to borrow from?

Is there anything that your young master wants to do but cannot achieve?

Yes, Young Master can make everything happen.

Up we go.
