[Ice Fantasy]

Father.

I hope that

you can announce to the leaders

of all three realms that your successor

is me, Ying Kong Shi.

You're not so dumb as to let

the King of Ice know that

Shi is the King of Fire's son.

Shuo Gang!

King of Ice.

You mustn't allow Ying Kong Shi to succeed the throne.

Do not forget about Bi Luo's prophecy

and Ying Kong Shi's destiny.

[Episode 22]

I have tried numerous times

to get close to the Holy Flame

but I never once succeeded.

It's protected by a unique enchantment shield of the Fire Tribe.

Flame has one around him as well.

There's a weak spot in Flame's shield

but not the Holy Flame.

Exactly.

You're both right.

If we don't remove it

even if we repair the ice sheath

it will melt again.

But how do we remove the Holy Flame

from the ice sheath?

What are your opinions?

Father.

Now that I've lost my magical powers

the Holy Flame might not repel me.

No, you have no immortal powers at all.

How can you get close to the Holy Flame?

How will we know if I don't give it a try?

Ka Suo.

Shi, be careful.

Prince Shi succeeded!

Prince Shi is remarkable!

He should take the throne!

Prince Shi, please place the Holy Flame in here.

Shi.

Are you all right?

Why did you act so recklessly?

Didn't you act just as recklessly?

Shi has proved to everyone

just how capable he is.

Your Majesty, you can now choose him

as your successor.

Shi.

That was indeed an incredible feat.

But like I said

to become the King of Ice

you still need to mend the ice sheath.

But the Six-leaf Ice Crystal was already destroyed.

How can Shi repair the ice sheath?

Come with me.

The banquet is over.

We should head back to the mortal realm.

Lord Xing Jiu.

When do you intend to leave Snowblade City?

If you asked me about it yesterday

I'd have said today.

But now that you asked me

I don't really have an answer.

Why?

Everything changes all the time.

I can only go along with it.

This is wonderful! The ice sheath has been repaired!

It's snowing.

This is wonderful!

- Exactly! - This is wonderful!

The ice sheath is repaired!

The snow is falling more heavily.

It seems that the Holy Flame has been removed.

The ice sheath has stopped melting.

You said that it's hard to say when we should go back to the mortal realm.

It has to do with this?

Destiny will come for us.

Toxin Healer.

Please wait patiently.

This is great.

It's finally snowing heavily.

It's already snowing so heavily.

Can't the ice sheath be mended by it?

Ice and snow will melt

but our ice sheath

will never melt.

This is because it contains the blood

and immortal powers of our ancestor, She Mi.

I understand it now.

The ice crystal came from the ice nucleus.

Father wishes to use the ice nucleus

to cultivate another Six-leaf Ice Crystal.

You're right.

It might take at least 1,000 years

and at most 10,000 years

to grow another Six-leaf Ice Crystal.

We can then mend our ice sheath.

Your Majesty.

You mean that the next king

will only be decided 1,000 years from now?

1,000 years?

It goes without saying that Shi will surely win then.

It won't take that many years.

At most, it will be decided within 10 days.

Ka Suo. Shi.

Between the both of you

whoever can cultivate an ice nucleus to grow a Six-leaf Ice Crystal

will have my throne.

Father.

Could we use the ice nucleus in every snowflake as well?

You're right. Any will do.

But the condition is that

the cultivator must be of

the purest lineage of our tribe.

Ka Suo. Shi.

You already knew

but you chose this method

to realize your plan.

I'll make you regret it.

The ice nucleus has to be fed with blood?

Whoever makes his ice nucleus form first

gets to be the next King of Ice.

How can Ka Suo cultivate his ice nucleus with blood

in his current condition?

Where are you going?

- I'm going to visit him. - No.

Why can't I?

The King of Ice gave orders

to envoys of The Guardian

to help The Healers, The Dream Weavers

the Spirit Tribe, and the Bear Tribe

rebuild homes that were destroyed.

We have to set out in three days.

We have to get ready.

In three days?

Li Luo.

I know that

you and Prince Ka Suo struck up a friendship in the mortal realm.

However, he's an immortal and we are just mortals.

You can never be with him.

The King and Queen of Ice won't agree with your relationship either.

It's better for you

to break up with him now. Do you understand?

Get some rest.

If you choose to give up your chance of succeeding the throne

like you did that day in the hall

I will cast Li Luo out of

the immortal realm forever.

Never is she to return.

Father.

Whether I become the king or not

has nothing to do with Li Luo.

Did you think that

your mother and I couldn't tell?

You wish to be with Li Luo.

You're right. I do like Li Luo.

If you're still my son

you have to strive for the throne.

This isn't just about you.

It's also for the sake of the entire Ice Tribe.

For the sake of Li Luo

I have to make an effort to take the throne.

But Shi is the most suitable candidate.

Should I give up

or should I do my best

in order to protect Li Luo?

Father...

Why do you have to force me?

Ka Suo.

I heard that you're competing with Shi in cultivating ice nuclei.

Is your physical condition up for it?

And you didn't quite finish

what you were trying to say to me.

What is it that you were asking me?

Tell me.

Messenger owl.

What message did Ka Suo send?

Didn't he say anything?

Off you go, messenger owl.

When you return, don't say a word to her.

If she gets mad at me

that's fine.

Even if Father doesn't hold me back

I'm still controlled by sword fairies.

If I stay with her

I will only hurt her.

A lifetime with her...

That was but a dream of mine.

If that is so

I will have her stay far away from me

so that she can be safe and sound forever.

Even if that will make her dislike me

it doesn't matter.

What are you doing?

Your Grace, you scared me.

You scared the baby ice nucleus.

You're not trying to cultivate

the ice nucleus for Ka Suo, are you?

So what if I am?

Do you not know

how many officials are now

supporters of Ying Kong Shi?

If you find it unfair

come back with me to The Mermaids.

Stay out of such affairs in the immortal realm.

That is the best choice

for The Mermaids.

No!

Fine.

You can stay here in

the Ice Tribe alone.

But I have to tell you

that even if Ka Suo

manages to make the ice nucleus form

his lifespan will not last more than 100 years.

Once he is dead

Ying Kong Shi will be the king.

If Ka Suo chooses not to marry you

in the end

you'll still become Ying Kong Shi's wife.

When that day comes

I'll die with Ka Suo.

You're still so stubborn.

Your Grace!

Whether Ka Suo loves me or not

all I know is that

I can't just abandon him.

Unless Ka Suo tells me that

he gives up his chance to be the King of Ice

I will help him until the end.

It's because of you that The Mermaids assist the Ice Tribe

in their reconstruction

and ended up offending the Fire Tribe.

We could no longer stay out of this war.

I was also supportive of Ka Suo

but now that his immortal powers can no longer be restored

as the mermaid saint

I have to put the interests of my people first.

I might even

abandon and sacrifice you for that reason.

Even so

you will still support Ka Suo?

Yes.

Your Grace...

Thank you.

Greetings to the Queen of Ice.

There is one matter

that still troubles me.

I'd like to use Your Lordship's power

to assist me in resolving this dilemma.

Please do tell, Your Highness.

Why would Ying Kong Shi's magical powers

improve and advance so rapidly?

Xing Jiu, have you discovered anything about it?

Your Highness, why would you be so concerned about it?

Prince Shi has always been an exceptional child.

He grows much slower

than any child of his age in the Ice Tribe.

But why would he suddenly

become the most powerful god in the Ice Tribe?

I really find it hard to believe.

Your Highness.

What can I do for you?

I heard from Xuan Ta

that you're one of the Seven Saints.

You'd like me to

read into Prince Shi's future?

No, that's too dangerous.

Don't read into Prince Shi's future so recklessly.

If a dream weaver is to be one of the Seven Saints

it means that you must have powers that excel those of an immortal.

But more than half of the officials in the Ice Tribe

support Shi.

Ka Suo and Shi

are now competing for the throne.

Therefore...

As for this matter

I know what to do.

I just wish to know the truth

so as to confirm my doubts.

Rest assured, Your Highness.

I will surely do my best.

Blood-red Lotus shall bloom soon.

The twin stars will eventually meet.

The wheel of destiny has started spinning.

Please wait patiently.

Xing Jiu, have you woken up?

Prince Ka Suo?

Yes, it's me.

Why do you seem to look so confused?

Could it be that the Origin of Dreams

is trying to tell me something?

Prince Ka Suo.

I'm sorry. I almost forgot that

The Dream Weavers always

rest during the day.

What is the matter?

I've heard that

my mother asked to see you yesterday.

I wonder if she put you in a tight spot.

You're worried that the Queen of Ice is trying to win me over

to support you as the next king

and oppose Prince Shi?

Lady Lotus has been

trying to win the officials over.

I'm worried that my mother is also doing the same thing.

Compared to me

it should be Prince Ka Suo

who is more troubled than I am.

On one hand, the King and Queen of Ice

asked you to strive for the throne.

On the other hand

you wish to support Prince Shi.

I already have an answer to that.

I just hope that

Your Lordship will not be influenced by anyone

in making your decision.

By the way, Prince Ka Suo

have you ever been to

a small island with Prisoner’s Rock?

Prisoner’s Rock?

Never.

Blood-red Lotus shall bloom soon.

The twin stars will eventually meet.

The wheel of destiny has started spinning.

Please wait patiently.

Those were the words that

you said to me in my dream.

I think that the Prince Ka Suo in my dream

must have wanted me to pass on those words to you.

But I don't understand what those words mean.

I don't quite understand what they mean either.

However

if that was a prophetic dream

we can only wait patiently

like you said in the dream.

One day

we will know what it means.

Are we to...

Are we to wait passively

for destiny to come to us?

Your Highness.

There are a great many ancient mysteries

around this city that we can't solve.

When destiny is upon us

we might be helpless to stop it.

I'm giving this dream to you

in hope that you can find the answer

before destiny catches up with us.

Mother.

When did you arrive?

I'm just here to take a look at you.

Look at my ice nucleus.

I haven't even started cultivating it and it ended up like this.

This ice nucleus is probably not a good one.

I'll choose a few more for you.

Mother.

These flowers, herbs, and medications are enough to last me a winter.

You're not thinking about

making me finish them now?

You have to feed the ice nucleus blood

so you definitely need to keep your stamina up.

What is it?

You're not thinking about giving up

at this stage, are you?

Mother.

I will do my best in

doing what I promised you.

However...

If my ice nucleus

is unable to form

we'll give up, all right?

Show me your ice nucleus.

Without my magical powers

I've only fed it with my blood.

But up until now

it hasn't responded in any way.

Who said that it's not responding to you?

Look.

Ka Suo, I knew that

you're the true king of the Ice Tribe.

Your Majesty.

Envoy of The Guardian, Li Luo

greets the King of Ice.

Get up.

Step out.

Yes.

I've asked you here today

to thank you for

saving Ka Suo in the mortal realm.

Your Majesty has already given me rewards.

There's no need for more.

I do not only wish to reward you.

I'd also like to tell you a story today.

Are you willing to listen to it?

In the mortal realm

there was a tiny insect called a mayfly.

One day

an immortal crane

met this beautiful mayfly.

He fell in love with her.

The crane told the mayfly that

he'd witnessed the sea turn into mulberry fields

mountains into gardens

and water droplets into sea.

The mayfly yearned greatly for

everything that the crane told her.

Hence, the crane promised her

that the next day at the same time

he would take her around to beautiful places in the world.

The mayfly agreed to it as well.

But the next day

when the crane got there

he suddenly discovered

that the mayfly was dead.

The crane's longevity allows it to roam to its heart’s content.

A mayfly's life lasts only a day, but it was content.

Even if the mayfly had to die

she was the happiest mayfly.

The mayfly was content.

But what about the crane?

The crane took the mayfly

as his soul mate for life.

Yet the mayfly died in a day.

Is the crane

to use this one day of happiness

to make up for 1,000 years of loneliness

until his death?

Isn't that too cruel

for an immortal crane?

Your Majesty need not worry.

As long as the mayfly doesn't fall in love with the crane

the ending of the story

would not be so sorrowful.

I know that

you're returning to the mortal realm very soon.

Therefore, I've decided to choose the right time to

appoint you as General of The Guardian

to replace General Ke Tuo.

I hope that you can keep protecting the mortal realm

until your death.

Are you willing to do so?

Thank you, King of Ice.

I will accept your decree.

Baby ice nucleus?

Baby ice nucleus? Where are you?

Baby ice nucleus!

If I damage your baby ice nucleus

let's see how you can defeat Ka Suo.

Why did you sneak in here?

Sneak in?

It's just that you weren't in Illusion Chamber

so you didn't see me come in here.

But I seem to have overheard you

saying that you're going to destroy my ice nucleus.

What?

I... I'm not that mean.

I'm just here to take a look

to see how your baby ice nucleus is growing.

You're here now anyway

so I'd just ask you for it.

Show it to me?

It hasn't taken shape yet?

This is great!

If I had known that you're not a match for Ka Suo

I won't have to come here.

Take shape? What is that?

Do you not know that

Ka Suo's ice nucleus has taken on a bigger form?

I heard that

he only used a drop of blood.

Just one drop!

This is quite strange.

You have such strong magical powers.

Why can't you

make your baby ice nucleus bigger?

Could it be that.

there's a problem with your blood?

Father.

Could we use the ice nucleus

in every snowflake as well?

Yes.

Any will do.

But the condition is that

the cultivator must be of

the purest lineage of the Ice Tribe.

Are you mad at me?

Lan Shang, answer me.

After you were bitten by the fire snake

do you remember anything about it?

I suddenly recall something.

What is it?

I remember back then

that my body

hurt as if I was burnt by fire.

But after I drank something

I wasn't in pain anymore.

Are you all right?

I'm fine. Leave now.

The blood that Lan Shang drank...

Was it mine

or Yan Da's?

Could it be that

only the blood of a pure Ice Tribe descendant

could cultivate an ice nucleus?

No...

Ka Suo's ice nucleus has already taken form.

If this continues, Shi will lose the match.

Mother.

Have you made any progress?

No.

I have a question for you.

I haven't been able to cultivate my ice nucleus.

Is it because I'm not really a prince of the Ice Tribe?

What nonsense is that?

That's ridiculous.

That's not true.

I'm not making wild guesses.

I was once bitten by Lan Shang when she was poisoned

by the venom of fire snakes.

But Huang Tuo told me that

if I were bitten by Lan Shang

who was poisoned by fire snakes

I wouldn't be unaffected if I were of the Ice Tribe's lineage.

The blood that runs through my veins.

Is it of the Fire Tribe?

Stop saying such nonsense!

Then why had I been unable

to wield magical powers of the Ice Tribe?

Everyone used to look down on me because of that.

Recently, however

after I ran into the princess

and princes of the Fire Tribe, even Flame

my immortal powers improved so suddenly and rapidly.

Why is that so?

My child

if I said that you aren't, then you are not.

You can't cultivate the ice nucleus because...

Perhaps it's like how you wielded magical powers late.

You're just a late bloomer.

My child...

Stop overthinking.

You are a true prince of the Ice Tribe.

Li Luo!

What is the matter?

Why do you look so pale?

I'm fine.

What is that in your hands?

It's a hematic medication handed down in my family.

I've brought it over for you.

Hematic medication?

Can you write me the ingredients?

The ingredients?

If you need more, just tell me.

I can get you more.

Why do you need the ingredients?

I'm giving it to Luna. She needs it.

Luna?

Sure!

I'll bring it to you right away.

Here, take this first.

Thank you.

I'll head back first.
