[Unique Lady 2]

[Episode 26]

[A: Revenge] [B: Rescue]

[Inside the System]

Hatred can't solve anything.

Using violence against violence is a never-ending cycle.

Besides,

even if I killed Jin Chen,

I can't bring them back.

So I choose to rescue them.

Congratulations on making the right choice!

If you choose to revenge,

even if you go back,

you would experience a bad ending where Sheng Jing would be destroyed.

The rules of the special item are as follows.

The player will have another chance to start the game,

and will go back to the turning point in the plot.

But if you get a bad ending again,

you will be stuck in the system forever.

[Inside the system]

I got it.

I want to go back.

[Hua Ying Chi]

Hua Hua?

Only someone

who's calm at heart

can understand this piece.

System.

Why does Jin Chen look so much

like Hua Ying Xue's master?

This is an important hint.

The mission is called "Rescue".

Hopefully you think about its meaning

and conquer hate with love

to pass the mission.

This is an item that will help you.

You may only use it once.

Please consider carefully.

The prison?

I'm back here?

Is there

any secret in this place?

Rescue?

Jin Chen took advantage of Liu Xiu Wen's hatred

and aggravated the Han Shuang Xue poison.

Rescue.

Is it for me

to dissolve the hatred inside Liu Xiu Wen's heart?

And the keyword was Hua Hua.

Why is that?

It's the familiar feeling

of suffering from the poison.

System.

You're way too cruel.

What can I even do with such a small hammer?

Unless...

What do you think Prince Jing Yuan

is planning for tomorrow?

I only know

that they're hiding at the outskirts of the Western Suburb Villa.

Nothing else.

Whatever, let's deliver the food.

Time to eat.

It's time to eat.

Xiao Wu, it's time to switch shifts.

Yes.

Let's go.

Recently, we captured two masters from the Tian Yi Clique.

We need to reinforce our defenses.

Yes.

I will guard them well.

Masters from Tian Yi Clique?

Is it Hua Hua?

Hua Hua.

Hua Hua?

Jing.

You...

I'm here to save you.

Senior.

Let's get out of here first.

Or else Jin Chen...

Ok.

Wait.

Hua Hua.

Is Jin Chen related

to the Tian Yi Clique?

Why does he look so much

like your master?

It's time to tell you.

Ying Chi.

You are very gifted.

You're already accomplished at such a young age.

I'm not worried about your cultivation.

But I am heavily troubled by something,

and wondering if you can help me solve it.

I'm here to listen to your teachings.

When I was cultivating back then,

I got married and had a wife.

But I chose to give up

my love for Taoism instead.

This was the seed I planted.

In the coming future,

there will be a rancorous descendant of mine

who comes for revenge.

He will not only affect the Tian Yi Clique,

but harm innocent people.

I adopted both Ying Xue and you by coincidence.

She will grow up with you

and become a protector of the Clique.

However,

you will get involved in this matter,

which is not only an emotional destiny,

but also a fatal calamity to you.

Whether you will choose love or cultivation

is up to you.

Only if you get through this calamity,

can you understand Tao*. (*The ultimate principle of the universe)

Do you understand?

I understand.

I will focus on my cultivation

and always remember your teachings.

Jin Chen is your master's descendant?

This is a destined disaster between Tian Yi Clique and Sheng Jing.

The one who can save everything is you,

Jing.

Let's go.

Senior.

We need to leave here first.

Senior and I can use our disappearing powers.

-But you... -I'll stay.

No.

We need to leave together.

You said

this is a destined calamity.

Since I'm the key person,

I have to stay.

But...

No buts.

I'm still worth something to Jin Chen.

He won't do anything to me.

But you two

lost a lot of cultivation because of the Immortal Rope.

Leave first,

and come to rescue me after you've replenished your Qi*. (*Qi is a Chinese medical term that refers to the functional force of metabolism.)

Miss Lin is right.

It's better for us

to leave first.

Alright, Jing.

I will definitely come to rescue you.

Hua Hua.

I have something else

to ask you.

Go ahead.

Jiang Xuan Yu was also tricked by Jin Chen.

I don't know where he is now,

or whether he's alive.

Don't worry.

I will help you find Master Jiang.

Jing.

Keep this letter carefully.

This is...?

This is a letter from Liu Xiu Wen's master.

Xiu Wen's master?

Once he sees this letter,

he will understand.

After all this time,

he was used by Jin Chen.

I believe that he won't keep fighting against Sheng Jing.

I'm over here!

Come catch me!

Hurry, catch her!

Don't run!

Stop!

I would've never expected

that it should be you who captures me.

Even if my master doesn't forgive me,

I still have to work with Jin Chen

for the good of Qi Yu.

Jin Chen is so cruel.

Why would you listen to him?

Haven't you ever suspected

that he's been using you and Xiu Wen?

Do you think I'll let you go since you instigate discord

between me and Jin Chen?

I know.

You all have lots of responsibilities.

But you can't

be blinded by hatred.

You can't just listen to one side of the story.

Miss Yi Yi.

I always thought

you were a talented,

beautiful, and smart girl.

I believe that you are a righteous person.

You will understand after reading this letter.

Whether to continue confusing your enemy with friends

is up to you.

What is this?

Are these the three conditions

to changing the story?

There are already two lights.

Does it mean that if I light one more,

then I won't get a bad ending?

Saving Hua Hua is one light.

Hua Hua saving Jiang Xuan Yu is the second.

Then the last one should be...

Xiu Wen?

It turns out finishing the previous plot

will unlock a new story.

This is great.

Xiu Wen.

Have you read the letter?

Letter?

His face tells me

that Su Yi Yi hasn't given it to him yet.

What should I do?

I knew that you would save the antidote

for this woman.

But your poison has already spread.

There's no use taking the antidote.

Xiu Wen.

Hurry and take the antidote,

or else Jin Chen will aggravate the poison to control you.

How do you know I have the antidote?

That's not important.

What's important is that you need to take it.

No.

You are also...

Master.

What did Xiu Wen feed me?

Medicine?

Is this the antidote?

Do you think I'm still

your obedient guard?

I am now Prince Qi Yu,

and you are my prisoner.

Are you satisfied?

Prince Qi Yu is decisive

and flexible.

You have my respect.

Don't use that on me.

You just need to remember our agreement.

I will kill Zhong Wu Mei,

you release Lin Luo Jing,

and we part ways with each other.

Your Highness.

At least we have worked together.

There's no need to be so cold-hearted.

I don't have to worry any longer

about Jing's poison.

Tomorrow's decisive battle is the only thing left.

Yi Yi.

Why did you come back?

I thought you

have already left me forever.

Master.

There's something you need to see.

[For Liu Xiu Wen]

Xiu Wen gave me the antidote.

What will he do?

The last light hasn't been lit up yet,

which means Xiu Wen hasn't seen the letter yet.

If he can't let go of his hate,

he'll still be in danger because of the poison.

If I knew he was going to see me,

I should've given him the letter myself.

What should I do now?

Great!

Jin Chen.

Wait and see.

I'm going to make my ultimate comeback!

Jing!

Jing!

Jing!

Alright, the comeback begins.

Alright, Liu Xiu Wen.

Are you rushing to die?

Do you think things can be settled

if you die?

Liu Xiu Wen.

You took the antidote?

Don't you care about Lin Luo Jing's life?

I didn't take the antidote.

But I've found out the truth.

The person that killed the Qi Yu Clan,

the biggest criminal,

is Jin Chen's father!

He also imputed the crime to Zhong family,

making us blame them for all these years.

Everything is Jin Chen's trick.

Master left this letter before he dies,

but Jin Chen hid it

and used us for revenge.

How did you get this letter?

Jin Chen.

You've been lying to me all this time.

In order to gain benefits in Qi Yu, your father

did numerous cruel things.

His death is karma* for his cruelty. (*The effects of a person's actions that determine his destiny in his next incarnation)

But you refuse to see his wrongs.

Not only didn't you make up for your father's mistakes,

you also used me to achieve your goals.

Your wishful plan

is really good.

So what if you know the truth?

You still won't survive today.

Hua Hua!

Xuan Yu!

Why are you here?

I was worried about you guys,

so I came along.

Jing.

Jin Chen!

You lost!

Impossible.

Come!

Kill them!

What a pity, Prince Jing Yuan.

I'm afraid no one

is coming to rescue you this time.

My people are already outside.

Turn yourself in, Prince Jing Yuan.

You can't get away this time.

Don't you all forget

that the crystal bead is in my hands.

Aren't you afraid that I'll destroy it

and die with you all?

I almost forgot about the bead.

Jing, you...

The crystal bead!

Is there another one?

This is what the missing page is about!

You!

You all tricked me!

I told you I was making a comeback.

How would I leave you any chances?

Impossible.

The crystal bead is a sacred artifact of the Tian Yi Clique.

There are originally both the Yin and Yang beads.

The Yin bead can attract the Yang.

Prince Jing Yuan.

There are still many secrets of Sheng Jing

that you don't know.

The usage of the crystal bead

is to keep people

safe and prosperous.

But you wanted to use it to do evil.

How would I leave you a chance?

No.

It can't be.

All my years of planning

are wasted

because of you!

I didn't get my revenge in the end.

How can I face you,

Father?

Your father committed heinous crimes,

which should have impacted your entire family.

But His Highness didn't kill you,

and even raised you

as his biological brother.

But you were blinded by hatred

and did all these evil things.

Your numerous crimes

can't be eliminated with just death!

Jin Chen.

Revenge is not redemption.

Let go of this.

The Zhong family's decision

was not to let the older generation's debt pass on.

But you caught yourself in a dead-end.

The hatred in your heart

was strengthened by you.

Aren't you tired?

Set yourself free.

He is the descendant of my master.

I've decided to take Jin Chen back to the Tian Yi Clique,

and lock him away to cultivate.

In this way, he can also

reflect on his crimes.

This might be the best way.

Thank you, Elder Hua.

I'd like to thank you too,

Hua Hua.

Up till now,

I finally understand

that neither passion nor cultivation

should be an obsession.

Hate grows from deep passion.

Cultivation is just one step away from evil.

But love

can tolerate all passion

and overcome all hate.

This calamity is now over.

I must go back to Tian Yi Clique to continue my cultivation.

You have to come to visit me often.

Of course.

Everyone,

take care.

You too.

Where did Jiang Xuan Yu go?

He left in a rush just now.

Maybe

it has to do with Tang Meng.

Looks like another love calamity.

Prince Regent.

In the past, I was blinded by hate.

Please forgive me.

It was all Jin Chen's tricks.

You were only a victim.

Please

accept this.

This...

The crystal bead can bring prosperity.

The Yang bead will stay here to protect Sheng Jing.

You may take

the Yin bead back to Qi Yu.

Accept it, Prince Qi Yu.

Alright then.

I'll accept it as you wish.

Now that everything is settled,

I will go back to Qi Yu.

There's none more thing...

Before I go back,

may I invite Jing to tour Sheng Jing with me?

Then how about Zhong Wu Mei and I accompany you together?

Go ahead.

Did I mishear?

Has Sheng Jing's King of Jealousy changed?

I am occupied

plenty of court matters.

Go by yourselves.

Then I'm really going.

Really going now.

Your Highness.

Are you still my master?

You really just let the Consort

leave with him like that?

Perhaps

there's only one thing

Liu Xiu Wen wants to see

in all of Sheng Jing.

Look.

It's so cute!

Look over there!

This...

Aren't you scared of sitting high above?

You can see everything further up high.

We can see all of Sheng Jing,

why would I be scared?

I wanted to take you to the tea house or restaurant,

but you didn't want to.

You just wanted to come to this tiny rooftop.

Why is that?

Because of lights and people of the tea house and restaurants

are dizzying.

I'd rather come to this dark rooftop

to look at one flower only.

I've known you for this long,

but haven't found out

that you like to joke around until now.

By the way,

You gave me the antidote earlier.

Then how did you heal your own poison?

Don't worry.

I've been poisoned for a long time,

and figured out how to detoxify myself a long time ago.

In Qi Yu,

we have a lot of strange bugs and plants.

I'll definitely be able to develop an antidote.

That's good.

If you sacrifice yourself to save me,

I will feel guilty to death.

Thank you.

For what?

My master's matter was always a burden in my heart.

You gave me the courage to let go of hatred.

I just gave you the letter.

Hua Hua gave it to me.

You know what you mean to me.

I feel like I've always been apologizing to you.

I'm sorry, Xiu Wen.

I've never been able to reciprocate your feelings.

Destiny between people is important,

and so is the order of appearance.

I might've

just met the right person

at the wrong time.

Even though I chose Zhong Wu Mei,

I believe

that in a different story,

you are the main character.

A different story?

Just like

a parallel universe.

No matter what,

in a different world,

there is definitely another Lin Luo Jing

that chose to spend the rest of her life with you.

Look.

Just like the stars in the sky,

maybe they're another you and me.

Alright.

If you ever miss me

in the future,

just look at the stars in the sky.

Why do you make it sound like

we won't see each other again?

Even though Sheng Jing and Qi Yu are far,

we can still see each other if we try.

If that Zhong Wu Mei gets jealous and says something,

I'll definitely retort him back.

You're right.

The scenery up here is really nice.

I can really see further from somewhere higher.

Look!

The stars over there seem brighter.

No matter where I am in the future,

I hope your smile will always be as bright.

Meng.

Everything is over.

Jin Chen can never threaten you again.

Is that so?

Then Lin Luo Jing is still alive?

That's great.

Your Jing is alive.

Meng.

You might've forgotten

that today is your birthday.

I used to feel resentful

about why I couldn't marry the one I loved,

and had to accept an arranged marriage.

But during the days

we've spent together,

I discovered

that I'm in love with you.

That's the truth.

No matter what challenges I face,

you're always with me together.

You help run the garment shop with me,

and take care of my daily needs.

I'm already used to having you next to me,

and sincerely thank God

for blessing me

with such a gentle and virtuous wife.

I know

that my feelings towards Jing

make you uneasy.

But she already has her match.

I only helped the two of them

out of friendship.

When I bought this pair of bracelets,

I hoped that

we could live in harmony

as one.

It's impossible.

We can't go back.

I've made too many mistakes.

If you knew that,

you wouldn't forgive me.

I know

that you used opium in the competition,

Knocked out Jing and Liu Xiu Wen,

and locked them in the same room.

You and Jin Chen worked together to capture Jing.

I even know

that the death of my father

might be related to your father.

I know it all,

but I didn't tell you.

It's not important anymore.

You were just used by Jin Chen.

You are still the cute and lovely Meng

that I know.

We shall let go of the past,

and start over.

Alright?

Brother Jiang.

I'm really stupid.

Master!

Yi Yi?

Didn't I tell you to send the crystal bead

to Qi Yu?

I've arranged everything,

and asked someone else to send the bead back.

Master, don't worry.

Everything is over now.

No matter where you want to go,

could you take me along?

You don't have to do this.

You know

about my situation.

I know.

It's just

I don't know when it started, but now I'm attached to you.

Aren't we in the same boat?
