LOVE AND REDEMPTION

EPISODE 57

I didn’t expect you to be here.

Xi Xuan.

You always go against me no matter if you’re in Heaven or Earth, huh?

Thanks to you, I’ve remembered everything.

King Bailing, are you sure you did everything for the sake of the world?

Do you have no regrets towards God of War, Xuan Ji, and Rahu Ketu?

Under what identity are you asking that?

Are you Xi Xuan, the son of Jade Emperor?

Or are you the demon under the command of Rahu Ketu?

Oh, I almost forgot.

Lord Xi Xuan, your mother was the princess of the demon clan.

The three realms were peaceful 10,000 years ago.

When the demon clan was under the rule of our realm,

the demon king presented his daughter to our Jade Emperor as a show of good faith.

The Jade Emperor sees all being as equal.

He treated you and your mother well too.

But demons were born to be betrayers!

After the Asura clan grew in strength,

the demon king wanted to establish their own kingdom.

And their princess abandoned

her identity as the Jade Emperor’s consort and returned to support them.

When the demon army was attacking us,

you knew how to hide in order to avoid any implications.

But in the end,

you gave up your heavenly rank because of Star of Mosha.

What?

Now, you’re siding with the demon clan to question the heavens?

All beings in the three realms are equal.

Today, we shall discuss the matter at hand.

I just wanted to ask you this.

You tricked Rahu Ketu into drinking the drugged wine and extracted his soul.

You turned him into the God of War and commanded him to slay his own kin.

And now, you won’t even give him a chance to seek justice?

I had no choice under the circumstances.

I extracted his soul because I didn’t want all beings to suffer from another war.

I’m giving him a chance to do good as well.

It was I who protected his primordial spirit.

I’ve never mistreated her when she was the God of War.

And I tried my best to compensate her.

I gave her the highest rank and honor.

When she was undergoing her tribulations,

I even descended to the mortal realm in order to guide her.

I don’t owe her anything!

A chance for her to do good?

You’re just controlling her.

You’re just trying to make her your puppet

in order to protect your position in the heavens.

You did everything

not because you wanted to compensate Rahu Ketu.

You did them to ease your conscience.

Lord Xi Xuan, your love is pure indeed.

You sacrifice everything for love.

You even feel sorry for Rahu Ketu.

But you better be clear!

She’s no longer Chu Xuan Ji!

Xuan Ji still exists.

Rahu Ketu and Xuan Ji exist in the same body.

Xuan Ji will return if Rahu Ketu puts down his hatred.

You fell in love with Xuan Ji while you were a human too.

Why are you trying to kill her when there’s a chance to save her?

Fell in love?

When did I fall in love?

I’m doing all this in order to protect the three realms!

Fine.

You said that you’re doing this in order to protect the three realms.

Let’s make a bet then.

I believe Rahu Ketu won’t become the merciless demon

who destroys everything.

What a joke!

I want to see

where your confidence came from.

Rahu Ketu had only wanted to vent out his anger.

He wants justice to be served.

But you insist on saying that he was going to slaughter people.

And you slaughter him in advance.

That’s why his hatred grew.

If you can resolve this feud

and acquire his forgiveness, we can avoid this calamity.

Are you willing to let Rahu Ketu

meet you alone for the sake of the three realms?

So that you two can resolve the feud on your own?

What if my assumption was correct all along?

What if Rahu Ketu came to massacre everyone in the heavens?

If that’s the case, I will lose the bet.

I will perish together with him in the Demon Citadel.

But if I win the bet, I only hope that

you can make an official apology to Rahu Ketu

for the wrongs you’ve done against him.

And let him go

from then onward.

No matter if he’s Rahu Ketu or Xuan Ji,

you should never appear in their lives again.

Fine.

Since you’re sacrificing yourself for the bet,

I’ll accept it.

But you better remember your words.

If Rahu Ketu does come to massacre our people,

you better remember your words.

You shouldn’t forget this as well.

If Rahu Ketu does not intend to hurt anyone,

the heavens mustn’t hurt him as well.

Bring him here.

Hurry.

Hurry.

Everyone, hurry up!

- Everyone, hurry up. - Master.

Bring them to the mountains and help them settle down.

Yes.

Uncle He Yang and Elder Ying Hong

have contacted Lord Dong Fang and Valley Master Rong.

They’re on the way here with other refugees.

Go and meet them.

Yes.

- Min Xing. - Master.

Go back and check if there are any remaining refugees.

If you find them, bring them here.

Yes, Master.

Sect Leader Chu, we found some refugees.

We’ve brought them here.

Is that so? Thank you for the trouble.

Is Rahu Ketu going to destroy everything?

Will Xuan Ji become a demon and never return?

That won’t be. Xuan Ji hasn’t disappear. I’m sure she’s still around.

If not, Rahu Ketu wouldn’t give us

the Core Fire and protect us from the disaster.

Little Phoenix?

Little Phoenix!

Si Feng, were you okay in the Demon Citadel?

We couldn’t find you when we went there.

- We were worried. - I’m fine.

It’s just that I haven’t been able to bring Xuan Ji back yet.

How’s Xuan Ji then? Did she reappear?

Did she remember us?

Ling Long, I’m sure Si Feng has something important to tell us.

Let’s listen to him for now.

I did think of a solution to bring her back.

What solution?

Tell us then.

But it’s risky. I need your help.

We’ll do anything as long as we can bring back Xuan Ji.

I’ve persuaded King Bailing to meet Rahu Ketu.

I hope they can resolve their feud.

If King Bailing is willing to let Rahu Ketu seek justice,

our situation will change.

But he’s King Bailing, you know? I don’t think he will give in this easily.

That’s what I’m worried about.

We can only bring back Xuan Ji if we can resolve Rahu Ketu’s hatred.

Only then, all beings can avoid this calamity.

But in the event that King Bailing goes back on his words,

only the Jade Emperor can help us out in that situation.

Are you asking us to seek the Jade Emperor?

Yes.

Jade Emperor is in Mount Kunlun.

It’s a forbidden ground.

It’s hard for you to make it there by yourselves.

You should find Wu Zhi Qi first.

I’m sure he has a way to bring you there.

Wu Zhi Qi?

Wu Zhi Qi has been in low spirits ever since Purple Fox died.

He spends his days doing nothing before her grave.

- I’m afraid he... - He will agree.

I’m just worried about the Jade Emperor.

He was formed by Heaven’s will.

I’m afraid he won’t interfere with the feud between them.

What should we do then?

If so, you should tell him...

You’re back?

Did Bailing make things difficult for you?

You’re not cold-blooded indeed.

I’m just concerned about the way

that coward would treat my subordinate.

Bailing has agreed to see you.

That coward actually agreed?

Good.

It’s been 1,000 years.

I want to see how Bailing is going to face me.

I’ll help you cross the Sea of Life and Death.

But you need to promise me this.

This time, you’re going there to resolve your feud with him.

You mustn’t harm anyone there.

I won’t harm anyone as long as that coward keeps his words.

GRAVE OF PURPLE FOX

Wu Zhi Qi.

Little Fox,

your friends are here to visit you.

You loved it when people come to visit you, right?

Now, we can drink to our heart’s content.

Stop drinking.

Purple Fox wouldn’t be happy if she sees you in this state.

See me in what state?

In the past, Little Fox wanted me

to accompany her every day.

Now, I’m by her side every day.

I’m sure she’s happy.

Wu Zhi Qi, let’s meet Jade Emperor in Mount Kunlun together.

I’m not going.

There’s no wine in Mount Kunlun.

Little Fox isn’t there either.

It’s boring.

Rahu Ketu and King Bailing will fight each other soon.

If they do fight each other, only the Jade Emperor can stop them.

We really need you.

They can fight all they want.

It has nothing to do with me.

Now, I don’t care about anything.

Fine.

You want to drink?

I’ll drink with you.

But, I don’t know if we still have a chance to drink after this.

If so, we should cherish our remaining time.

Old Wu, you should know this well.

King Bailing is forcing Rahu Ketu into a corner.

If he forces Rahu Ketu to overturn the Transcendent Furnace,

the Heaven Fire will descend

and everything in the three realms will disappear.

By then, not only will Purple Fox’s grave disappear,

your memories with her

that you wanted to protect will disappear as well.

Do you really want that to happen?

As friends, we won’t force you to make decisions.

We just hope that you can consider this with care.

Tomorrow, we’ll depart for Mount Kunlun.

We’ll wait for you at Mount Shaoyang.

Even if you don’t come,

we will go there by ourselves.

Let me end this once and for all.

Let’s go.

Demon Lord, you mustn’t!

Please wait for me to capture the Rose Gold Birds before you go!

Do you think I will go back on my words like that coward, Bailing?

Stay here.

If that coward goes back on his words,

I’ll wreak havoc in the heavens.

Yu Si Feng.

Let’s go.

Right Lieutenant, what should we do now?

We’ll stay here.

Observe the heavens closely.

Yes.

It’s 7 am already. Just forget him.

Let’s depart now.

Didn’t you prepare some wine for me since you wanted me

to follow your trip?

Seems like Si Feng’s advice was useful indeed.

The thing I regret the most in the world

is knowing Xuan Ji and Si Feng, the two troublemakers.

I have no choice.

I can’t bear to leave them alone.

We’re just trying to find the Jade Emperor at Mount Kunlun, right?

Let’s go.

Who’s there?

- Ruo Yu? - Min Yan.

Why did you follow us?

I want to go to the heavens as well.

Please bring me along.

What? Are you trying to harm us again?

I...

I know I have let you down on many occasions.

I know that I don’t deserve your forgiveness.

But I promised Silver Snake that I’ll protect Si Feng.

I’m sure I can be of use.

I want to try my best to atone for my sins.

Please.

Get up now.

Kid, it’s not that easy to atone for your sins.

Just ignore him. Let’s go.

Ruo Yu, if you really want to help, you can follow us.

We have an appointment with King Bailing.

We don’t wish to hurt innocent people.

King Bailing has been waiting for you two. Please.

- We’re here. - Is this Mount Kunlun?

The Jade Emperor’s shelter in the mortal realm?

No.

We have to get through Kaiming Gate before we reach Mount Kunlun.

We have no time to waste. Let’s go.

Wait. Don’t rush.

It isn’t that easy for you to approach Mount Kunlun.

You see the stillwater surrounding this area?

Ordinary people can’t cross the river.

After we pass this, we still have Hell Flame to get through.

Mortals will turn into ashes if they touch the flame.

After that, we still have the Raging Gale Formation.

Even tough animals like elephants

will be torn into pieces when they enter the formation.

Of course, these obstacles are nothing to me.

But for mortals like you,

I’m afraid it’s impossible to get through.

How can we reach Kaiming Gate then?

Don’t listen to his nonsense.

Why should we pass through the obstacles

when there’s an alternate route?

You know quite a lot.

Of course. I’ve studied every path that could reach the heavens

when I first stole the celestial eye.

We can reach Kaiming Gate by climbing the southern cliff.

Although you’re right, we still need to cross the stillwater river.

If we want to reach the southern cliff.

We can’t fly over there.

- Let’s hurry over there then. - Wait!

Can you stop rushing?

Look.

Even a leaf can’t float on it.

How do we cross this river?

What are you trying to do?

Ordinary things can’t float on stillwater.

There’s only one exception. The feathers of a Rose Gold Bird.

Because their feathers are formed by the golden ray of sun.

That’s why they can float on stillwater.

So, you have to suffer for a bit.

We need your feathers to make a boat.

We can cross after that. Come on.

Just come.

No way! I’ll be bald by then!

- Come, don’t run! - No way!

It’ll be over in a moment. It won’t hurt.

Let me do it.

It did work.

Their feathers do float on stillwater.

We owe you a favor this time.

Why is it so quiet?

There are no towns or villages here.

Other beings can’t cross the river too.

Of course it’s quiet.

Look! What’s that?

This is bad. It’s the Ten Sorcerers of Kunlun.

Are they powerful?

They protect the borders of Mount Kunlun.

If I’m not mistaken,

- he’s Wu Lv. - Demons,

how dare you show yourself in Mount Kunlun?

Get to the shore. We’re on stillwater.

We’re at a disadvantage if we fight here.

You want to escape?

The heavenly navy!

Get to the shore!

What is this?

Let me out!

Old guy, you should care for your own army.

You don’t need to worry about what’s happening on the shore.

Old Wu, let me out!

Let me out!

What’s this scent?

What scent? I don’t smell anything.

Just ignore that for now! Come and release me!

Why are you two in a daze?

Can’t you hear me?

Let me out!

Brother, you’re back?

Come, drink a jar with me. Let’s get drunk.

One jar? That’s not enough! We need ten jars! Come!

We need at least ten rounds!

Come!

Stupid Monkey.

- Little Fox? - Stupid Monkey.

You’re drinking so much.

- Did you forget about our vineyard? - Vineyard?

The vineyard where we first met each other.

There are so many grapes in the vineyard right now.

Stop drinking. Let’s harvest some grapes.

- Okay. - Let’s go.

I’ll leave for a moment. You continue.

Ruo Yu.

Yan Ran?

Isn’t this

your favorite food?

I know you treated me well in the past.

I was too willful and too fierce in the past.

I won’t act like that

again.

Ruo Yu!

Do you want to save your sister?

If you want to, you should obey me!

Ruo Xue!

Don’t hurt my sister!

Ruo Yu! Save me!

Ruo Yu! Save me!

How dare you betray me!

I’ll kill your loved ones right in front of your eyes!

This is bad! They’re caught in an illusion!

Ling Long, try to wake them up!

Let’s go!

Ruo Yu, wake up!

Ruo Yu!

Wu Zhi Qi, what’s wrong with you?

Wu Zhi Qi, wake up!

Stop advancing!

Stop advancing!

Wu Peng?

This is bad!

It’s you? You must be the one behind the illusion!

The illusion has everything you need.

You can have anything you desire in the illusion.

Isn’t that great?

Come, tell me.

Tell me your desires.

I want...

- I want... - Ling Long!

Wu Peng is one of the Ten Sorcerers!

Snap out of it!

She’s trying to trick you! Don’t fall for it!

Don’t try to trick me!

Wake them up right now!

Why should I?

Reality is too harsh.

You like to escape reality, right?

Fine!

If you don’t wake them up,

I’ll gorge your eyes out.

And sever your head from your neck.

I’ll show you no mercy!

Please don’t gorge my eyes out!

I’ll wake them up!

Hurry!

Ruo Yu!

- Min Yan! - Let’s go!

This... This is impossible!

No weapon should be able to break through my barrier!

Why is that impossible?

Listen up.

It’s been a long time since I’ve used my Finger of Power.

What a coincidence. I’ll try it out on you then!

I’ll show you how powerful I am!

- Ling Long, are you okay? - I’m okay.

We’re the Ten Sorcerers of Kunlun!

How dare you humiliate us like this!

We will surely report this to the Jade Emperor!

Listen up. I sat on his throne before.

Do you think I’m afraid of you?

You should stay in the water!

Old Wu! Let me out!

This is great! I have never felt better being a demon!

Can’t you be more gentle?

The cliff is extremely slippery. How could we climb it?

We have no other choice. We can only climb it.

Why can’t we use our powers?

The heavens loves to mystify things.

If we use our powers, we won’t be able to see Kaiming Gate.

The cliff is alive.

Your daggers will disappear after a short while.

So, you better be careful.

I heard that

there’s a Kaiming Beast with nine heads guarding the gate.

It’s hard to deal with.

I think we should be careful.

We need to go no matter what.

Are you okay?

I’m fine.

I’m too old for this!

Your body is weak indeed.

Min Yan.

I’ve committed so many crimes in the past.

I don’t deserve your help.

Si Feng told me about your sister.

Although I still can’t forgive you,

I can’t just let you die while I do nothing.

Min Yan,

I’m sorry.

You took the risk in order to save Si Feng and Xuan Ji.

Since everyone is trying their best to help them,

I’ll accept your apology for now.

Come.

Have some food.

Recover your energy. Here.

You even brought this?

- Nine heads? - Is this the Kaiming Beast?

So delicious.

- Do you want to eat them? - Yes!

I won’t give you any of them!

We don’t have much. You should share.

So delicious! Give us more!

I guess you aren’t full yet.

I have some wine.

Here.

What are you doing?

This is bad. We own them a favor now.

We actually ate their food without knowing their goals.

Big Brother, you ate the most, you know?

Aren’t you embarrassed?

Second Brother ate the most!

Who are you? Why are you approaching Mount Kunlun?

We just passed by the area.

We wanted to have a snack since we were hungry.

But you took it all.

Tell me, what should we do?

What should we do now?

Don’t bother me because of trivial matters like these!

You can handle this.

Be quiet! I’m going to meditate.

Don’t cry. You drank the least.

We won’t blame you.

I still have some wine. Do you want to drink?

Don’t tell Big Brother about this.

Don’t worry. We won’t tell him.

You’re amazing! You finished it in one gulp!

More!

Here.

I will never be drunk!

A few jars of wine won’t do anything to me!

But I think you’re drunk.

I thought you were the guardian of the gate?

Isn’t it too much if you get drunk?

It’s fine! I won’t let anyone pass!

Here’s a secret.

Our tail is the key to unlocking Kaiming Gate.

I’ll show you how to unlock it so that you can broaden your horizon.

And know that ordinary people can’t enter Mount Kunlun.

It’s that amazing? Show it to us

so that we may sing your praise to the people below.

Look closely.

This is Kaiming Gate.

Since I’ve eaten your food and drank your wine,

I’ll repay you by showing you how to unlock the gate.

Remember to sing my praise to the people below.

Of course!

How is it? Am I amazing?

You’re amazing!

Kaiming Beast?

This jar of wine is called Drunken Stupor.

It can produce the strongest wine.

You’ll be drunk for three days if you drink one jar.

This silly beast drank nine of them.

They’ll sleep for 27 days at least.

So, you knew Kaiming Beast was silly.

That’s why you’ve prepared a solution.

Of course. If not, Si Feng wouldn’t ask you to find me.

We deceived such an innocent beast.

I feel like I’m the villain now.

That’s enough. We should leave while the portal is open.

It’ll be difficult if someone sees us later.

Right! Let’s go!

What happened?

It’s the Phoenix.

Phoenix is the king of all birds.

It’s the natural counter of the Rose Gold Birds.

Its call can rupture my internal organs.

Hurry!

Since the Asura clan had surrendered to the heavens,

you may return to the Demon Citadel.

Do your part and don’t create trouble.

Go now.

The Asura clan is bloodthirsty and ruthless.

They will disrupt the peace of the three realms.

We mustn’t release the tiger back to the mountain.

Leave none of them alive.

Kill them.

Yes.

The Jade Emperor actually went back on his words?

The Asura clan is bloodthirsty and ruthless.

Today, all of you will end up like Rahu Ketu.

All of you will die under the blade of the God of War!

You? The God of War?

You killed Rahu Ketu?

What a joke!

With the vengeful spirits of my clan, I’ll curse you!

You’ll never have a good end

for all eternity!

Their blood was still warm

when I killed them. I don’t like that.

Before they die, all of them stared at me with resentment.

General, I think you’re too exhausted.

I’ll find you some medicine that can clear your mind.

Lord Medic,

you’ve been treating me for such a long time.

Did you discover that my memories were missing?

General, what do you mean by that?

King Asura stared at me when I killed him.

He said I was a traitor. I thought he was familiar.

But I can’t remember anything.

And today, a new heavenly officer asked me for my name.

I tried to think, only to realize that you only call me the God of War or General.

I can’t even remember my name.

Lord Medic.

Do you know my name?

I’m a low-rank official.

I don’t know much about the high-rank officials.

Don’t tell me I don’t have a name since birth?

Since birth...

Where exactly did I come from?

Wu Zhi Qi, you better give up!

And return Juntian Loop and Chehai Hook to the heavens!

Do Juntian Loop and Chehai Hook belong to the heavens?

You killed Star of Mosha and took his Juntian Loop and Chehai Hook!

I’m just taking back what’s rightfully ours!

God of War, King Asura wants me to send you a message.

God of War, I was murdered by you.

But I retained my last breath just to send you a huge gift!

You better take a good look at the secrets hidden within Bailing’s palace!

You deserve all of this!

I...

Who am I?

Where’s my soul?

Siming Hall!

True events are recorded in the jade tablets.

But King Bailing actually asked us to change the God of War’s history?

This doesn’t conform to the rules.

If the God of War knew that she was an Asura in the past

and she decimated her whole clan, hell will break loose.

Of course we need to hide this fact.

Stop it now. King Bailing sent us here

precisely because he wants to hide this fact from everyone.

If news of this gets out,

we will be punished by the heavenly lightning.

We should do our job and leave the rest to King Bailing.

King Bailing captured Rahu Ketu.

King Bailing extracted his soul and sealed it within the Jade Cup.

It’s too late when the Jade Emperor found out that King Bailing

colluded with the southern immortals.

King Bailing reconstructed Rahu Ketu.

The God of War was created after that.

Is this

telling the truth?

Bailing! Come out!
