[The Great Ruler]

[Episode 13]

Father, are you planning to do something against your conscience to Herds Land?

Have you gone to Black Dragon's side?

This incident is not that simple. Not only Black Dragon is involved.

If you offend the power behind Black Dragon,

the entire Willow Land will sink into irreversible calamity.

Father, Willow Land has descended into such dire straits,

all because of this person's instigating maneuvers. Shouldn't he die?

Looking so mighty, my husband.

Killing your friends, capturing your teachers,

the next one will be me, right?

- Qian'er. I... - It doesn't matter what you say now.

Towards you... my heart has already died.

What's the point of me living?

Mubai, my biggest mistake cannot be reversed.

Don't you make the same mistake.

Mubai!

What are you doing?

Why are you stopping me?

Do you know why you didn't die?

When I discovered you at the bottom of the Eye of Gathering Source, you were wrapped by a force of spirit energy.

Do you know who it was?

That's not right. Isn't the Eye of Gathering Source already destroyed?

Why is there still spirit energy?

Mubai.

Mubai isn't dead!

It was your father.

Father.

I've known Brother Liu for many years.

Perhaps he wasn't the best leader,

but I believe that he is a good father.

Mubai.

Your father

paid the price of spirit dissipation to wrap you up with his primal core.

Protecting you. But you...

How will you be able to see him in the nether world?

I want to return to Willow Land.

You should rest first.

The future of Willow Land depends on you.

Don't worry. As long as Herds Land exists, there will be Willow Land.

You must take care of yourself.

Okay.

Since you've decided,

then get ready.

When you're ready, I will dispatch Zhou Ye to lead a team to escort you back.

Last time you fought against me, you nearly killed me.

I haven't even gotten my revenge for that.

Seeing me... why shouldn't you be happy to?

Yeah. I don't have a reason not to be happy for seeing you.

At least I can see you.

But, Jiu You, do you know that I will forget how my dad looks?

Forget how Luo Li looks, how my mom looks.

I won't be able to go to Bei Cang Spirit School to learn spirit formations.

I can't accomplish the goals my father wasn't able to achieve.

I am even weaker than before.

Teacher Mo said that I'm afflicted with a secret ancient technique.

The cure has been lost.

I'm afraid that Luo Li will leave.

I remember Teacher Mo said it's difficult to cure.

He doesn't mean it's incurable, does he?

He was comforting me.

Mu Chen, don't be like this.

There are a lot of things that are uncertain.

Before, I also didn't know that I could live just fine in your body.

Jiu You.

You don't believe that my eyes can get fixed, isn't it?

Young Lord Liu, we were ordered by Lord Mu to escort you back to Willow Land.

I won't bother you.

Young Lord Liu, it doesn't bother us.

If you didn't kill your father for justice, our Bei Ling Realm would have been destroyed.

Our Lord has said that we must preserve Willow Land's structure.

It's to appreciate your spirit.

Our hero, if it weren't for you,

we may not even be alive today.

I am not some kind of hero.

You don't have to send me.

Miss Tang.

Go back. I will follow Mubai.

But Our Lord ordered us to escort the Young Lord Liu.

The order is dead, but the person is alive.

My spirit energy is stronger than all of yours put together.

Why are you still worried, when I'm the one who's going to protect him?

Then, thanks for your hard work, Miss Tang.

This is...

Our old housekeeper in Willow Land.

Both of his sons also went to the battlefield.

They became monsters, and not even a complete corpse remained.

Mubai...

Wangbo.

Rest assured.

Your grievance, your sons' grievances, the entire Willow Land's grievance,

I will help you with it.

Qian'er.

Do you remember this?

In just a day's time, everything has changed.

Everything is gone.

Sorry.

My father did it for... for Tang Land's people.

It's my dad who listened to that slanderer.

He did wrong things.

Willow Land has deserved all of this consequence.

Your dad made the right decision. I'm sorry towards him.

Mubai. You have me.

I will always be with you.

Leave.

I want to be alone.

Mu Chen, the medicine is brewed.

Luo Li. How come you were gone for so long?

I only went away for about 15 minutes.

Really?

I feel like it's been a long time.

Maybe because I can't see anything.

Open your mouth.

Luo Li, I'll definitely work hard. I won't become your burden.

Open up.

Since there is a technique to inflict the curse, there also must be a technique to reverse it.

Regardless of how hard it may be, we must find it.

Isn't the source of Black Nether Blood Curse, the Xue Shen Tribe?

Qian'er.

Thank you for all this time.

Mu Chen and I previously agreed that we would fight once more.

So I have to head back to Bei Cang Spirit School, to fulfill this promise.

Mubai, you finally woke up.

There are many advanced fighters in the Five Colleges.

It should be helpful to me for reviving Willow Land.

I believe that this is what my father wanted to see.

Since I've also been accepted at Bei Cang Spirit School,

I can go with you.

You still have a few days until you start school. It's better that you head home first.

Don't let father in law...

Lord Tang worry.

Leave? Where are you going?

You are returning to Luo Shen Tribe, right?

My tribe is suffering. I can't keep hiding outside.

There are some things that I must face by myself.

Mu Chen, this time I've stayed at Bei Ling Academy for a while.

I became friends with everyone.

Thank you.

For your care.

Good friends.

Yes.

As a good friend, I should be sending you off on your return to Luo Shen Tribe.

But right now I can't see, and my spirit energy is not recovered.

If I follow you, I will be your burden.

Your eyes will get better.

Trust everyone, and trust me.

Before you leave, can you go somewhere with me?

We are here.

Okay. Wait for me.

Luo Li. Wait for me.

Okay. It worked!

So beautiful!

Luo Li, once you leave Herds Land, you'll be on your own.

Please be careful on the road.

Don't agree to anyone who wants to travel together with you.

Even though the Eye of Gathering Source has been destroyed

and Faceless Daoist was executed,

you still can't let your guard down.

Luo Li, you just learnt how to speak.

Don't be like Qingshan, who uses idioms recklessly.

They say, too much talk will result in mistakes.

Didn't you tell me before

to talk more with people, and improve my communication?

That was because I was with you.

You know that I'm good at talking.

I like hearing you talk.

Then come back soon. I have a lot to tell you.

I know. I won't let you wait for too long.

Luo Li. I like to see you smile.

But I can't see it anymore.

The Repeating Mystery Formation has disappeared.

How is it? Is it pretty?

It's not that pretty.

Go back.

I have to go.

Luo Li!

Young Lord, it's time to eat.

Young Lord?

Why is it so dark these days?

It's making me feel lifeless all day long.

If you really can't bear it, just go after her.

Don't keep tormenting yourself. She doesn't even know.

You have already drawn for so long. You must have remembered it.

Hurry and go and practice. Don't stay in here.

Break!

You are actually not trying to repair the spirit formation.

You are afraid that you won't be able to see anything, once you leave. You are deliberately hiding at my place.

Go and adapt to the outside life!

Don't stay in here. Hurry and leave!

Are you inhuman?

Of course! I am a bird.

Okay. I'll leave!

Chen'er.

Dad.

I heard that you won't eat or drink, or talk to people.

Dad, I just happen not to feel hungry,

and I don't want to talk with people.

Dad. What is this?

There are two kinds of formation drawings.

One is the kind that you can see with eyes.

The other one is called Heart Formation.

I close my eyes just like you.

I couldn't see anything, but used my heart to make this formation.

How did you do this?

Actually, just draw in your mind to form the formation.

Even though you can't see it, you can still use it.

However, it's easy to hear me talk about it,

but it's very difficult to learn and practice it.

You have to discard all distracting thoughts,

and only keep the formation drawing in your heart.

There have been many spirit formation masters over the years.

The heart formation practitioners have hardly achieved anything.

So no one wants to do it. I've practice for a long time,

but can still make only a simple and basic formation.

How is it? Do you want to learn?

Of course I want to!

Dad, hurry and teach me the method of heart formation.

I believe that I can learn it.

Okay. I can teach you.

But you have to promise me one thing.

Okay. I'll promise you.

Eat your meals.

- Why are you here again? - Do you think I want to come? I just came.

Of course it's because you couldn't avoid using your eyes, that's why you are hiding here.

No way!

Chief, it's right here.

[ Xue Lingze, Chief of Xue Shen Tribe ]

Corpse Fairy Old Woman, I'm asking you

about Goddess Luo Li of Luo Shen Tribe.

Where is she now?

Hand.

Interesting.

The person you are trying to find,

is right here at this moment.

Before, someone told me

that Corpse Fairy Old Woman is never wrong.

I really believed it.

But now, you tell me that Luo Li is right here.

It's a joke. Nonsense!

Remember. It's fine to trick other people.

But you can't trick me.

How dare you trick our leader? We'll kill you.

This elderly person... please have a bit more respect towards her.

Let's go!

Come out.

Grandma Shi Xian, I've come here to seek your advice.

How can the Black Nether Blood Curse be broken?

Little girl, you have to be a bit more polite.

I know.

To break the Black Nether Blood Curse,

you must acquire the Fairy Grass Jade Knot.

But this jade knot is very precious.

It's become extinct in the Xue Shen Tribe.

Of course. In your Luo Shen Tribe,

there's even less of a possibility.

In this whole world, only inside the forbidden area of the Five Colleges,

Thunder Land, will you find a few rare ones.

What? It seems like you have another question to ask me.

Grandma Shi Xian, I have another question for you.

Why are you here again?

I am training.

Training? You've been practicing this heart formation for many days.

Any progress yet?

You don't understand.

This technique... is not something you can achieve in just one day or night.

I really don't understand. You should know what your natural talent is.

Even if this heart formation is difficult, you should have already gotten it, after so much time.

I am already training very hard. Why are you still blaming me?

Of course I do. Practicing hard and practicing with focus are two different matters.

You keep thinking about your eyes all day, wanting to get your vision back.

I'd be surprised if you actually made some progress.

Stop it!

I don't ask for your help. Stop putting me down all the time.

It looks like this heart formation has turned you into a real waste.

No wonder Luo Li is leaving you.

It's probably good to leave you, so that she can see how you are doing nothing all day long.

Mu Chen. I'm talking to you!

Mu Chen!

Jiu You!

Jiu You. Are you okay?

I'm fine.

The 4th level is lighting too.

Thank you, Jiu You.

You are really weird.

You almost died, and you're still thanking me.

What are you laughing for?

It's alright if you die, but I don't want to die with you.

Grandma Shi Xian, I also want to ask you...

are spiritual beings and human beings allowed to fall in love?

If they do fall in love, what is the result?

If you ask me

what has happened to spiritual beings and human beings who have fallen in love in the past,

I can tell you.

But I can't tell you about what has not happened.

Because all of it is unknown.

Anything is possible.

The past?

You're saying that spiritual beings and human beings have fallen in love with one another in the past?

Different people will also have different endings.

I don't know which one are you asking about.

I understand now. There can be a different result for a human and a divine being falling in love.

Knowing this is well enough.

Thank you, grandma.

Corpse Fairy Old Woman indeed delivers on her reputation.

Luo Li. Come back with me.

In your dreams.

Xuantong, why are you here? Aren't you protecting grandpa? [Li Xuantong, Luo Shen Tribe Guard]

Chief ordered me to investigate the whereabouts of the Xue Shen Tribe.

I followed Xue Lingzi and ended up here.

You leave first.

Xuantong, please let grandpa know that Xue Shen Tribe is treacherous.

Even if I marry Xue Lingzi, they won't let Luo Shen Tribe go.

I know. Hurry and leave.

Letting my woman go? You must be tired of living.

[Luo Shen Tribe]

Chief.

- You may rise, Xuantong. - Yes.

You saved Luo Li from the Xue Shen Tribe. It's a tremendous merit.

Luo Li knew it's dangerous, but still sneaked into the Xue Shen Tribe. I'm so upset.

Chief, you shouldn't blame Goddess too much.

Chief, Goddess wants me to pass a message to you. "Xue Shen Tribe is treacherous."

"Even if we agree to the marriage, they still wouldn't give up on invading us."

That's right. Luo Shen Tribe is really counting on my city defense troops.

The future is still unknown.

I heard that Luo Li participated in the war between Willow Land and Herds Land in the Bei Ling Area.

Willow Land's defeat will surely make Black Dragon angry.

I'm worried that once Black Dragon takes action,

it will result in even more chaos.

It will affect Luo Li's safety.

Xuantong, after thinking it over,

I've decided to send you to escort Luo Li

to enter the Bei Cang Spirit School, and safeguard her.

Yes, I will listen to your orders.

Mu Chen, Luo Li is back.

Really? I thought she went back to the Luo Shen Tribe.

Why would I trick you?

What are you doing? Hurry and go find her.

Do you think I can see? Lead me.

You are doing so well with the heart formation, that I almost forgot that you are blind.

Uncle Mu, I already asked,

and, as long as we can find the Fairy Grass Jade Knot, we can help restore Mu Chen's vision.

But Thunder Land is forbidden to most people,

not to mention searching for the jade knot.

Also, Chen'er can't see right now. I'm afraid...

Rest assured. I will go with him.

Besides, there are many elites gathered in the Five Colleges; maybe there is some other way

that can help restore Mu Chen's vision.

I won't leave the Five Colleges until Mu Chen regains his eyesight.

What do you think?

Fine, I will ask Chen'er to see if he would go to the Five Colleges.

I agree. I agree!

If Luo Li is there, I will go anywhere.

I never imagined the measly Human Tribe could destroy my evil eye.

Black Dragon, what is your crime?

It's all because of my careless neglect.

I never thought

that the Human Tribe actually learned the Cosmic Dissolving Evil Formation.

Cosmic Dissolving Evil Formation?

Yes.

This is a spirit formation that was documented in ancient scriptures.

Herds Land's Lord Mu Feng used the spirit energy from the Heaven and Earth as the fuse,

with mountains and rivers as the base. It took him ten years to build it.

It is particularly powerful against the Murmuring Power.

Its power was so tremendous, that it caught me by surprise.

Therefore, it led to the destruction of the Eye of Gathering Source.

I am willing to receive punishment.

My old wound is healed, and my power is restored.

I'll give you one last chance.

Black Dragon, don't disappoint me again.

Thank you, Master! Your servant will not disappoint you.

Adopted Father, Black Dragon was injured by White Dragon ten years ago.

He pleaded you to grant him the Murmuring Power. You rejected him at that time.

But even though he's made a mistake this time around, you still decided to help him.

Ten years ago, I wanted to keep him guarding the Eye of Gathering Source,

so I didn't heal his wound.

I didn't know that inside Bei Ling Area there'd be a disaster called Mu Chen.

Looking at the current situation, I still need him as a chess piece to remove Mu Chen.

Adopted Father, Black Dragon is too ambitious. Will you...

I'm using him because of his ambition.

Right now, Supreme Black Dragon ruling the Bei Ling area is the best choice.

I'm asking you to accompany him and keep an eye on him.

Yes. Qingxuan understands.

After this battle, all the tribes in the world now know that I am returning,

and will try to unite.

- Should we try to use all the ones we drafted over the years... - There's no hurry.

Let's see if Black Dragon can eliminate Mu Chen.

Chief, I wasn't able to bring back the Goddess. Please punish me.

You previously said that you saw the Evil Eye in Bei Ling?

Yes, two of them, and they are both destroyed now.

What did you say? Who destroyed them?

The Eye of Gathering Source was destroyed by the Human Tribe's formation.

The Eye of Sky was destroyed by some ancient technique.

In Bei Ling, did you ever see Wen Qingxuan?

No, I didn't see Wen Qingxuan, but I saw her subordinate.

Luo Li is also there?

Where is the Goddess now?

Probably on the way to the Bei Cang Spirit School.

Hurry and prepare. You will leave with me immediately.

Yes.

Chief, to be frank, I think we can attack the Bei Ling Academy.

But the Five Colleges are where the strongest elites of the Human Tribe gather.

Besides, Bei Can Spirit School is on high alert now. We can't just barge in there.

Did I say we'll barge in?

Issue my order. Once we arrive in Bei Ling, do your best to hide your whereabouts.

I will sneak in by myself.

All of you will remain outside, on stand by.

Leader, not even a bird can fly into Bei Ling Academy right now.

The defense formation is also too difficult to break.

Since it's hard to enter from outside,

then we will go inside to find the formation's core.

Watch for my signal from the inside.

I will contact you as soon as I find the formation's core.

Yes.

Luo Li, come back with me.

In your dreams!

Luo Li, you will be mine sooner or later.

You are going to the Bei Cang Spirit School now. It's unlike other places.

You must be extra careful, especially about your eyes.
