"Ashes of Love"

"Episode 36"

It really did break.

Jin Mi,

how could you give your all to Xu Feng?

Do you know that,

as I saw the dream shown by the beast of dream.

Showing that both of you are tangled in a lover's embrace...

do you know how much my heart hurts?

I would rather that you've never learned...

what love actually is.

This way, you will love no one,

you will love nothing,

and you will love no more.

Your little Fish Fairy,

he has nothing left,

except you.

Please don't leave me,

please?

Frost flower, why did you ignore me?

Don't you want to get out of here?

Liu Ying.

Jin Mi, I need your help on something important.

Since you have borrowed the beast of dream from Immortal Jin Mi,

then we should not waste this opportunity and hesitate no more.

I am only afraid of peeking into Mu Ci's past.

I'm here with you.

Greetings, Your Majesty.

How are Sui He and Xu Feng?

Your Majesty, both of them are safe and sound.

They've been born safely in the mortal world.

Recover Sui He's memory quickly,

so that they could grow their love for each other during this time.

Yes.

Then what about Jin Mi?

The Heavenly Emperor has sent Immortal Yuanji...

to look after Jin Mi day and night.

I wasn't able to get a chance to strike at her.

Never mind.

We can do it after a few days.

Lest the Emperor will use it against me.

I understand.

Have you made your Immortality Destructing arrow?

Your Majesty,

as the arrow is welded by my own blood and bones,

it is going to take some time.

Please give me a few more days.

Fine then.

I will give you a few days more.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

Do you still love me?

I do,

as always,

and I've loved you since a long time ago.

But I am in love with someone else now.

You are neither fairy nor demon,

how could I be with you?

Why are you so silly?

You are the only one I love, since ever.

I never thought that it's the Heavenly Empress who is controlling Mu Ci.

She is going to hurt Jin Mi.

No,

I must let Jin Mi know about this...

and warn her to stay alert against the Empress.

Jin Mi,

thank you for lending us your beast of dream.

You are very much welcome.

If it were not for your help in mortal world,

I am afraid that I would have disintegrated into ashes,

just like Rou Rou.

Did this beast of dream...

actually help that old friend of yours?

Jin Mi, to be frank,

the one who killed Qiang Huo with the Immortality Destructing Arrow...

was that old friend of mine.

His name is Mu Ci.

He was a kind man,

but someone has gained control over him and he was forced to attack you.

If you could not forgive him,

then direct your anger towards me.

No matter what you wish to do,

I am willing to endure it for him.

Please rise.

By whom your friend is controlled?

- The Heavenly Empress. - The Heavenly Empress?

I have no idea why would the Empress harm you.

It is better for you to stay in the Flora Realm.

If you return to the Heaven Realm in the future,

you must stay very vigilant.

My Lord,

the counter-charge of the silkworm is too powerful.

Actually,

controlling Body Decomposing Silkworm and let it feed on Mu Ci's power...

is not entirely impossible.

I have raised Mu Ci since young.

My affection towards him is no lesser than that of Liu Ying.

I could not bear to see him suffers in his agony.

My Lord, I know what you are thinking.

But to control this Body Decomposing Silkworm...

Father,

what should we do to control this Body Decomposing Silkworm?

Liu Ying, as for the method to save Mu Ci,

it is better for you not to know about it.

Why?

The reason is that this method...

will cause a great strain on whoever is helping him.

I know,

you will do anything to save Mu Ci,

even if it will cost your life.

But this is not what I wish to see.

Father.

No.

I don't want that.

No!

Liu Ying,

let go of him.

Let go of him now!

Let me go! I want to save him!

If he dies, my will to stay alive shall follow suit!

Silly child,

if you transfer your power to him now by force,

you will only cause him more pain.

Father, then what can I do to save Mu Ci?

Father, what are you doing?

Hold him up quickly.

There is actually no way to control this Body Decomposing Silkworm.

However, the blood and bones of a powerful man can be used to...

slow down the Silkworm in his body temporary...

and ease his pain.

However, this man, after losing his blood and bones...

will suffer a drastic decrement of power.

His body will be extremely overhauled.

I did not want you to attempt this previously...

is because I was afraid that you could not withstand the effects.

Father.

Mu Ci is also my child whom I have raised since young.

I know you like him truly,

and I only wish to see that you will be happy again.

Father,

I've failed as a daughter.

I know,

when Xu Feng was grounded,

that Jin Mi had stolen her way into the Qi Wu Palace.

That mischievous fairy,

I failed to eliminate her in the mortal world.

And now, the affection between Xu Feng and her...

did not fade but it has grown deeper instead.

If you could've been more useful,

we will not arrive at this predicament.

I've let you down, my aunt.

Alright, be seated.

That Run Yu too,

when he stands before others...

he appears to be so gentle and harmless.

But who knows what he is planning in his own heart?

Until what happened by Dong Ting Lake...

only he revealed his true self.

I don't believe that...

he has no intention to take the throne.

The moment he marries Jin Mi,

Water Immortal and Wind Immortal, as well as the Flora Realm...

will contribute to his strength.

If Xu Feng remains unrepentant and stubborn...

in his feelings towards Jin Mi,

the consequence will be disastrous.

In the end it is Jin Mi who has caused us all these headaches.

There is only one way left,

we must eliminate Jin Mi.

It is the only way to stop Xu Feng's feelings...

and reduce Run Yu's allies.

However, to lay our hands on Jin Mi now...

in either Flora Realm or Heaven Realm is highly difficult.

As long as our will is strong,

there is nothing we can't achieve.

Mi Er had gone to the Qi Wu Palace twice,

what do you think about it?

Finally, I have reunited with my daughter.

I wanted her to live free of worries and fear.

I would be fine if she liked the Night Immortal instead.

The Night Immortal has always stood aloof from the rest of the world.

Our family could live our days at a leisurely pace.

However, she has chosen the Fire Immortal instead.

Their affection for each other is totally unexpected.

It matters little to me as to how the rests of the Heaven Realm think.

What matters most,

is that the Heavenly Empress will not be easy on her.

We must not merely fold our hands here and watch...

what is going to happen to Mi Er.

As for us,

the Heavenly Empress will not let us go easily either.

Our peaceful days...

have now come to an end.

So what if I have to give up my days in leisure,

or if I have to fight against the Heavenly Empress,

I have no fear of it.

I only want Mi Er to be well.

However, her trip to the mortal world is indeed worrying.

If Mi Er insists to stay with the Fire Immortal,

who knows what sort of foul plans the Empress will design to trap her.

I am afraid that we have no means to circumvent it.

I will find an opportunity...

to explain the situation to the Heavenly Emperor clearly.

That is your own wishful thinking.

Didn't you see how the Emperor treated the Empress...

after Su Li passed away?

Don't even think about it.

I wanted to cheer them up initially,

but it seems that father and Aunt Lin Xiu are worrying about me.

As a daughter,

I've placed my feelings before my duty to them.

Phoenix...

The only thing which makes my heart linger...

and keeps me awake at night,

is the secret behind this piece of veil.

There is nothing that you dare not do.

You've promised to marry me in the mortal world,

will you fulfill your promises?

I will let my father know...

and ask him to rescind my engagement.

I am willing to marry you thereafter.

Why do I feel something strange in my heart these few days?

What Phoenix and I did at the mortal world,

is it only something that happened at the spur of the moment?

As I recall upon it, it seems more like a dream than a reality.

If Rou Rou is in fact killed by the Heavenly Empress,

then the Heavenly Empress is my enemy.

Phoenix will then be the son of my enemy.

How am I going to face him?

The Heavenly Empress killed Rou Rou.

Father and Aunt Lin Xiu are troubled by me.

If I am still insistent to stay with Phoenix,

how can I face them anymore?

Father, when did you come?

You didn't even discover my presence,

I guess you're still troubled by your engagement with Night Immortal.

Marriage is no child's play.

If you call off your engagement with the Night Immortal,

do you know how much trouble it will cause to others?

Father,

my engagement...

Regarding my engagement...

I will let you decide on it.

I was too selfish,

I didn't know why did I act like that too.

You are still a small child at heart.

You will do what you want at the moment.

This time, are you really sure about this?

Or are you going to change your mind tomorrow?

I've made up my mind,

I will not renege on my promise.

Who would've guessed that, two of the Emperor's sons,

will be at the disposal of my daughter?

The wedding day is around the corner.

If you've made your choice now,

you could not turn back on it anymore.

Are you absolutely sure about this?

I have already decided,

my decision will not change.

The wedding ceremony in the Heaven Realm is cumbersome.

You will live with me in Luo Xiang Mansion for these few days,

so that Aunt Lin Xiu can teach you more about the etiquette in Heaven.

Growing in the Flora Realm, you are used to be free and undisciplined.

If you mess up in your wedding,

you will put the Night Immortal to shame.

I think you are worried that I will embarrass you right?

Even if you have embarrassed me,

that will be my honour.

What is the situation with my mother now?

The Heavenly Empress did not leave the Zi Fang Yun Palace at all.

However, Princess Sui He,

seems to visit the Zi Fang Yun Palace regularly during these few days.

Continue to pay attention on the Heavenly Empress.

By the way, Your Highness.

I heard that Immortal Jin Mi has arrived at the Heaven Realm today.

She will stay in the Luo Xiang Mansion from now on.

Is that so?

Your Highness, are you going to the Highest Palace?

No, the Luo Xiang Mansion.

The Heavenly Emperor has invited Xuan Ling Lord Dou Mu...

to speak at the Highest Palace.

Alright, I have my own plans.

Immortal Jin Mi,

the Fire Immortal is waiting outside and has requested to see you.

No. no.

Ask him to return.

Yes.

Your Highness, Fire Immortal.

Immortal Jin Mi said that she will not see you.

Please return.

What happened to her?

Fire Immortal, what are you...

Why won't you see me today?

Not just today.

Lord Fire Immortal,

we shall see each other rarely.

I am going to marry the Night Immortal anyways.

What are you saying?

If we were to be together,

my father will be troubled.

Aunt Lin Xiu will be troubled.

The Heavenly Emperor will be troubled.

Chief Zhang will be troubled.

The Night Immortal will be troubled too.

If a matter must be such troublesome,

then there is something wrong with it.

This matter of romance has no right or wrong.

Jin Mi, you know how I feel towards you.

- Moreover, our affections are mutual! - Lord Fire Immortal.

Indeed, we were both in love with each other before.

However, it was merely our blunt courage when we were human.

And it is not what we are now.

If we only depend on our mutual affection for each other,

we will never go through this.

I will never let you marry the Night Immortal.

Have you not heard the saying that, the God is above all of us?

The one who destroys others' marriage will be doomed to hell.

Are you not afraid?

I am the God myself. So what if I go to hell?

In between this Heaven and Earth,

there is nothing that I am afraid of.

The only thing that I am afraid of...

is your mind.

After we came back from the mortal world,

you told me that you accept my affection towards you,

I was over the moon.

Previously, I have no hope for the future,

but after I've met you,

I dream about our future together night and day.

However, today,

you are telling me that we made a mistake...

and you are going to marry the Night Immortal.

I don't know why did you change your mind suddenly.

Did anyone force you?

Or have I done anything wrong that troubles you?

- Tell me and I will solve it for you. - Lord Fire Immortal.

What you are doing now is precisely what's troubling me.

I don't know what to do either.

Lord Fire Immortal,

Lord Dou Mu will speak about the Dharma today.

It is best for you not to be late.

I will treat you as merely being silly with me today.

I will wait for you to think through it.

The Heaven Realm is different with Flora Realm.

Stay alert yourself,

especially my mother, keep a distance from her.

Phoenix must have known something.

Your Highness.

You will stay on guard at the Zi Yun Fang Palace.

If Heavenly Empress makes any movements, inform me promptly.

Yes.

Xu Feng.

Dear Xu Feng,

the fairies in the Heaven Realm had asked me to tie all these...

red threads for you.

I know, you only hold Jin Mi in your heart.

Nonetheless,

you can just keep them as a keepsake.

Why do you have to be so cruel...

and burn all of my innocent red threads?

Xu Feng,

your anger is boiling.

Who has offended you?

Uncle.

Xu Feng.

Good boy.

Xu Feng, the puja is starting soon.

Why are you still idling here? Let's go, let's go, let's go.

Let's go. Go, go, go.

Immortal Jin Mi.

May I know why you are here, Fairchild?

The Supreme Lord Lao is opening his furnace today...

and he invited the Water Immortal to try on his herbal medicine.

That is such a bad coincidence.

My father has gone to attend the puja by Xuan Ling Lord Dou Mu today,

he is not in the mansion at the moment.

Having a full furnace of herbal medicine but no one to try,

the Supreme Lord will be so disappointed.

If Immortal Jin Mi has some free time now,

could you please come over and try on the medicine?

Me?

Am I suitable for this task?

If we couldn't get the Water Immortal, but if his daughter...

could come over, it will be easier for me to explain as well.

You can retreat now.

Yes.

So she was actually someone from the Zi Fang Yun Palace.

Could it be the Heavenly Empress?

Alright, Fairchild, please wait for a moment,

let me change my clothes in my chamber.

I will be waiting for you here then.

Mi Er,

your summon spell has improved much nowadays!

Lower your voice!

Mi Er,

is it because you haven’t married the Night Immortal yet,

now you could no longer bear the loneliness...

- and you want me to... - Get up now.

I am talking about a serious matter here.

Go to the Highest Palace and look for my father now.

Tell my father that...

Heavenly Empress has sent someone to take me away.

The Heavenly Empress?

The Fairchild outside claimed that,

she is serving under the Supreme Lord Lao.

She invited me to try on the elixir pill.

But she is actually a servant to the Heavenly Empress!

The Heavenly Empress is cunning and merciless.

It will be dangerous for you to go alone.

- Stay here, I will protect you. - It is alright. I must go this time.

The Heavenly Empress killed Rou Rou.

I want to avenge her death.

Bring my father here.

I will find some way...

to make the Heavenly Empress confess about her wrongdoings.

Then, we will have the evidence to prosecute her.

Okay.

You must be careful.

Please, Immortal.

Please.

This way.

Please.

Immortal, please.

So it was really the Heavenly Empress.

Fairy Jin Mi,

no,

I should call you Immortal Jin Mi.

You've kept me waiting.

Xu Feng, look at how merry it is.

It seems that we are late.

This is so lively!

There are so many people.

Xu Feng, grab a seat quickly.

There is an empty seat over there, I will go there now.

The puja today is an important occasion,

why is my mother not here?

Greetings, Your Majesty.

I was going to visit the Supreme Lord Dao and try on his elixir pill,

but instead I was taken here by a lost Fairchild.

I have disturbed you, Your Majesty.

I shall retreat now.

Jin Mi was taken away by the Heavenly Empress' servant.

Where is Xu Feng?

It is true that the elixir pill is boiling,

however it's not the Supreme Lord's herbs.

I have always been curious,

what is the true form of the Immortal Jin Mi?

How about this?

Let's not waste this great opportunity and make an elixir pill.

I could learn something new too.

You must be joking, Your Majesty.

On that day, at the Highest Palace,

my father, Water Immortal has announced to all fairies,

my true form is a piece of six-petaled frost flower.

That year, the evildoer, Zi Fen,

has indeed lured the Water Immortal with her beauty.

But who knows who is your father actually?

The Water Immortal might be uncertain about it himself.

We've heard only rumours.

Until today, no one has seen you in your true form.

I need to see by my own eyes.

Let me test you today and see who you actually are.

The fire of hell is divided into 8 stages,

the firefly fire, candle fire and wood fire.

Seems like they leave no effect upon you.

Then we shall begin from the fourth stage,

the brewing fire.

Back then,

your mother was able to endure until the final stage, the glass fire.

But who knows until which stage that you can endure?

I am so excited to find out.

How is it possible?

My mother was the Flora Immortal.

How could you possibly hurt her?

She brought it upon herself!

Your Majesty,

perhaps it is not your intention to test my true form today.

I think, you actually intend for me to die here.

So you are not that stupid.

When I was in the mortal world, you sent your man to kill me.

But he killed my good friend, Rou Rou instead, am I right?

- So what? - You've killed my mother before.

And then you killed my friend.

Old hatred and new revenge.

Today I will avenge their deaths!

Just by yourself?

I think it is better to inform Run Yu first.

Your Highness, Jin Mi is in trouble.

The seventh stage fire of hell,

the boiling fire!

You have such power to control the water,

it seems that you are really Luo Lin's daughter.

Break!

The eighth stage of the fire of hell,

the glass fire.

Heavenly Empress,

why must you kill me?

Because you are Zi Fen's daughter.

Because you resemble her starkly.

And because you even dare to lure my son!

I must endure until my father arrives here.

Even if you die thousands of times, you deserve it!

I've never thought that,

the Heavenly Empress who wields an uncontrollable amount of power...

will be afraid of me.

You've flattered me much.

Afraid of you? Why would I be afraid of you?

If you do not fear me,

then why would you use fire of hell against me...

instead of facing me yourself?

You evildoer,

I will kill you with my own hands today!
