[ Love and Destiny ]

[ Episode 2 ]

You are not on duty today. Is there anything good out there?

I heard the Peach Forest has nice wines.

Should we go and try a few cups?

That old fogey, Le Bo, is too difficult to handle!

His junior brother Mohuan is more genial, just don't know if he's around or not.

I'm going to Dark Capital Mountain in a few days. Come with me.

Oh, Yuanzheng.

Then today let's count this as a farewell dinner for you and Zhuxie!

- Senior Deity. - Senior Deity.

- Yuanzheng. - Present.

The war will start on Dark Capital Mountain soon.

Go home and keep Old Madam Yuan company.

Yes.

You may go.

- Yes. - Yes.

[ Jiuchen ]

The war at Dark Capital Mountain.

- Senior Deity! Senior Deity!

Senior Deity, wait for me.

Senior Deity, I'm from the Peach Forest. [ Lingxi ]

My name is "Ling Xi", "ling" meaning "clever" and "xi" meaning "tide".

I know.

Really?

Senior Deity, I have been training with my father for fifty thousand years.

Don't listen to my father's nonsense.

My medical skills and magic powers are not bad either!

There surely won't be any problem in choosing me as your personal attendant.

Senior Deity, when I was in the lower realm, I heard many

s-stories about you.

I didn't imagine that I

would have the honor and good fortune to meet you.

Senior Deity, don't worry. I will definitely

do my best. I surely won't disappoint you

in choosing me.

Senior Deity, is this your sleeping chamber?

Or are you here to visit a friend?

Why aren't you going in?

This...

Senior Deity? Senior Deity? It's really you!

I'm not dreaming, right?

I, Mojiang Shisan, pay my respects to the Senior Deity!

This immortal is really kowtowing v-very sincerely.

You are...?

[ Shisan ]

Mojiang Shisan pays her respects to the Senior Deity!

"Shisan"?

That's me, Shisan!

How did you turn out like this?

The galaxy and constellations have revolved, vast seas have turned into mulberry fields. (T/N change over time)

You left for fifty thousand years.

I have changed slightly too.

My name was "Mojiang", now it's "Shisan".

I knew you would return sooner or later,

so I have been keeping watch here day and night.

I waited until finally you came back.

Rise.

Yes.

Senior Diety, she is...?

I'm Junior Immortal Lingxi.

I have a destiny with the Senior Deity. I will be training with him in the future.

I will take care of his meals and help him to recuperate.

You are probably a few years older than I am.

I will address you as "Senior Sister Shisan" then!

Senior Sister Shisan, please guide me.

Well said, well said!

[ Fuyun Hall ]

For the past fifty thousand years, I have been cleaning this place.

Fuyun Hall is the same as it was when you left.

Even this Dawn-Dusk Tree

stopped its respiration and stopped growing.

Senior Deity, all living things have been waiting for your return.

You are finally back.

My priority for coming back here is to recuperate.

When idle people visit, block them whenever you can.

Yes.

- As for the rest, just act accordingly. - Yes.

Senior Deity,

this Fairy Lingxi, what accommodations should I make for her?

She's just a junior immortal. She's not a fairy.

She's just like you.

Starting today, she will stay here.

She's naughty, and doesn't know the rules.

You must teach her properly.

Senior Deity, don't worry.

I will definitely teach her well. I won't let her cause any disasters.

I'm taking my leave now.

Let's go.

[ Fuyun Hall ]

To the thousands of heroic spirits above,

I, Jiuchen, am bowing to pay my respects.

He called me naughty?

It was he who clearly called me to come here. Why is he suddenly turning hostile toward me?

How can you say this?

Daughter!

Who is it?

Daughter!

Father.

Father, why are you here?

How could I not come?

If I didn't come today,

that old fogey, that God of Heavenly Thunder would have caught you and turned you into dumplings!

Senior Sister. (T/N Lingxi has two Masters who teach her, her father and Jiuchen, so she has sect sisters and brothers for each)

Are you having fun?

It's okay.

Where is Chengyan?

I tied him up to a tree, so he could reflect on his actions. [ Qingyao ]

You're stinky brat who forgets about her father because of a man!

Just one gaze from Jiuchen, you just abandoned me and left with him. [ Le Bo ]

You'd rather be his maidservant than go home with me.

How come I raised a daughter like you who bites the hand that fed her?

Father, what's so great about going home?

You want to lock me up in the Peach Forest and I can't go anywhere.

It's so great outside! (T/N sarcastic)

You came out for a short time and almost lost your life. Do you feel good?

Father, you can't say that.

Enough, enough.

Master. If she doesn't suffer, she won't understand.

It's still Senior Sister who dotes on me.

A woman won't stay with her family when she grows up.

Come here. Come here!

Doctor Qingyao.

Fairy Shisan.

Store this properly.

Remember, you mustn't let this leave you even for a moment!

What is this?

Don't bother about what this is.

You only need to know that it's very important. Immensely important!

If you lose your head, I can still put it back on for you.

If you lose this,

I will personally come here and turn you into mincemeat!

And then I'll throw you into the medicinal field as fertilizer. Do you know realize how great I am?

What's so important about this?

I don't want this.

It's so important, and you still dare to return it to me?

- Store this properly, store it, store it properly! - I don't want it.

Okay, okay, fine.

It wasn't easy to raise you and you simply left.

Can one actually live in this Heavenly Palace?

That Jiuchen is so lifeless. You'll die of boredom if you stay with him!

Jiuchen is young and so full of vitality

that he was in slumber in the Immortal Sea for fifty thousand years.

My daughter is delicate and beautiful!

What if he wants to do something to you...?

Excuse me, may I ask who this is?

She's the housekeeper of Fuyun Hall, Senior Sister Shisan.

No wonder Fuyun Hall is in decline.

- Father! - One's descendants have their own luck.

Daughter, take care of yourself. I'm leaving!

Lingxi. If you have any problems, come and look for me at Yaowang Cave. (T/N "Medicine King")

Fairy Shisan.

Please take good care of Lingxi.

Be careful.

Don't be sad.

You can still go home often.

A new life is starting.

This is great!

Senior Sister Shisan, shouldn't we tidy up the Senior Deity's sleeping chamber first?

Don't ever do that!

He doesn't like anyone entering his sleeping chamber.

You must remember this.

Look at my memory.

How fortunate was it that the Senior Deity especially instructed me to teach you!

Stop working! Come here!

Sit properly.

Let me tell you about the rules here.

I will have to trouble you then, Sister Shisan.

There's a total of three hundred and sixty-five official palace halls in the Nine Heavens.

All are homes to immortal elders who are of high status and have official duties.

For immortal elders who are of low status, they dig their own cave dwellings.

Your Senior Sister is living at Yaowang Cave.

She follows the Lord of Heavenly Medicine to practice his immortal skills.

If you add up all the cave manors,

there would be about seven thousand of them.

That many?

That still excludes the immortal elders without any official positions.

There are also immortal races who were born and live as deities since ancient times.

The Nine Heavens are very vast.

There are many members of the Heavenly Tribe and a lot of rules too.

Hence, whatever you do in the palace, you must be extra careful.

Then...

what is the status of the Senior Deity in the Heavenly Tribe?

Other than the Heavenly Emperor and the teacher of our Senior Deity, the Heavenly Supreme Lord,

our Senior Deity is the number three man here of the Heavenly Tribe.

Number three?

How's that?

You are now the number three person in the palace of the number three person of the Heavenly Tribe.

Awesome, right?

There are only three of us here.

I am indeed quite awesome.

Okay, I will continue to explain more to you.

There are many rules here.

I have been talking to you for a few hours.

Do you remember everything?

Yes, I do.

You remember everything? How is this possible?

I initially took a long time to memorize all that.

Stop bluffing!

Recite the rules to me.

In short, in the Nine Heavens,

I can't leave here or go out.

No matter who I meet, I must bow and show respect.

Talk less and work more. Right?

Absolutely right!

Sect Brother, I'm here!

High Immortal Yunfeng?

What are you doing? Get up and work.

Do you remember what I told you?

Yes.

High Immortal Yunfeng.

Shisan, I will leave them to you.

Don't worry. Leave them to me.

Fairy Shisan.

Hanzhang is here too.

I'm here to pay my respects to the Senior Deity.

Sect Brother Shisan, it has been a long time. (T/N deliberate address as male)

You've become taller and more fierce.

No, no.

Beautiful and gentle.

When will we go for drinks again?

Kaiyang, you stinky boy, Is your skin itching again? (T/N need to be taught a lesson) [ Yunfeng ]

Gentle, gentle.

When I'm free, I will deal with you again.

Let's go.

What is your name?

I'm Huayan.

All of you come with me.

- Yes. - Yes.

Greetings, Sect Brother.

- I, Kaiyang, pay my respects to the Senior Diety! - I, Hanzhang, pay respects to the Senior Deity! [ Kaiyang (left) - Hanzhang (right) ]

Rise.

What's wrong? Do you need me to help you up?

I must be dreaming.

The Senior Deity has really returned.

Rise and talk.

- Yes. - Yes.

How have you been doing?

Everything is well.

After the great battle between the gods and demons, it has been peaceful all over.

Most of the time, I stay in the Heavenly Palace helping the Heavenly Generals train their forces.

I'm similar with Kaiyang, just that I have an official title of being the South Sea Guarding General,

training the Heavenly Soldiers in the Heavenly Palace.

Now that there is peace in the world and no wars to be fought,

my sword is about to rust!

How are Yuanzheng and Zhuxie's families?

Ever since Yuanzheng and Zhuxie perished at the battle of Dark Capital Mountain,

Yuanzheng's position is succeeded by his younger sister, Yuantong.

Yuantong is really hard-working. Plus with the spies that Yuanzheng had trained in the North Seas,

her fame within the military is really high.

Recently, I heard that

Yuantong and the son of Eastern Seas Water Lord will be married soon.

That little girl admired you since she was little.

Knowing that you are awake, she's extremely happy.

Yuantong?

The little girl who was with Yuanzheng?

It has been many years. She's not longer a child.

How about Zhuxie's family?

In the battle between the gods and demons, Zhuxie led his whole tribe to fight.

Everyone died in the war.

Not a single descendant survived.

Now, it's Ziguang who is a subordinate of Tianlei taking over the Western Seas. (T/N God of Heavenly Thunder)

You just woke up. You still need lots of rest.

We are taking our leave now.

If you have any instructions, let us know at any time.

You may go.

- Yes. - Yes.

Senior Brother, your immortal soul was clearly damaged at that time and you lost the chance to live.

That's why I took you to the Immortal Sea.

How did...

Someone trespassed into the Immortal Sea and woke me up.

Immortal Sea is a forbidden place.

Even I can't enter there. Who else is capable of doing this?

It's not a big deal trespassing into the Immortal Sea.

What I'm afraid is that because she could trespass into the Immortal Sea and wake me up,

Dark Capital Mountain...

and that Demon Lord...

It was Le Bo's daughter, that little phoenix?

That's why I'm keeping her by my side, to observe her.

But her magic looks ordinary, she's naive, and her attributes are very plain?

She doesn't seem like someone from the Demon Tribe.

Members of the Demon Tribe are good at deceiving others.

You won't be able to tell just from appearances.

I will be mindful of this matter.

You don't need to worry.

How is Old Master? (T/N Tianzun - Heavenly Supreme Lord)

Ever since you left, the Old Master went into seclusion.

He has never stepped out.

[ Heavenly Lord Mountain ]

How's the war at Dark Capital Mountain?

Sect Brother died in the war. [ Tianzun - Heavenly Supreme Lord ]

The Demon Lord has been sealed.

None of the hundred thousand Heavenly Soldiers returned.

Take your Sect Brother

to the Immortal Sea.

Yes.

Old Master.

I have returned.

[ Thunder Leader Palace ]

God of Heavenly Thunder.

Because of an unforeseen event, a matter that was clearly agreed beforehand,

the Heavenly Emperor didn't even mention it! - [ Tianlei Zhenjun - God of Heavenly Thunder]

Just to protect the Heavenly Palace, you had an intense fight with that Heaven-Devouring Beast. [ Ziguang]

That caused your deity-conferring ceremony to be disrupted,

or else you would already have survived the Nine Heavens' Thunder and become respected as the God of War.

Even if you get angry, I will still speak my piece.

After saying it, I will personally go to the Purple Cloud Platform to receive my punishment.

Anyway, the Heavenly Palace is being unjust. There's no point in continuing to be a Heavenly General!

You are becoming more and more unruly!

I feel the injustice for your sake!

Even if that Jiuchen was valiant and good in fighting back then, even if he has numerous military merits,

all of that is already the past!

Didn't you also exert an all-out effort for the Heavenly Palace?

Fifty thousand years ago, our Heavenly Tribe suffered a devastating loss.

It was you who bravely bore the important responsibility and terrible mess

of pacifying the different tribes and saving the wounded soldiers.

For fifty thousand years, you've managed the military of the Heavenly Tribe in perfect order.

What was Jiuchen doing at that time?

Records of feats and merits over someone who couldn't rest for a lifetime!

Get lost!

- God of Heavenly Thunder. - Don't say anymore!

The Heavenly Emperor is the ruler of the Six Realms

who governs the kingdom with kindness.

We should not have any suspicions or selfish motives.

I will forgive you once again for the nonsense you spewed today,

there will be no more next time!

Yes.

If there are no rules in the Heavenly Palace, nothing will get done.

The gods in the Heavenly Palace must be aligned in order.

Even if Jiuchen is wrong, it is still not your place to say so!

You are right, God of Heavenly Thunder.

Jiuchen is, after all, the God of War.

Guarding the Six Realms and leading armed forces to suppress innumerable demons should command respect,

but... [ Fangsheng ]

But isn't it odd that he woke up at this time?

He was in that coffin with his immortal soul entirely vanquished, how could he possibly return to consciousness

and entirely by chance take to the sky to return for you to endure defeat that day?

That junior immortal from the lower realm who trespassed into Immortal Sea,

did she really trespass accidentally?

Heaven-Devouring Beast is fierce and aggressive. It's abnormal that it's close to her.

What reasoning is that?

You're saying...

God of Heavenly Thunder, there are respectable seniors and juniors in the Heavenly Tribe.

We understand that.

But as the Heavenly Tribe's soldiers, our main responsibility is to protect the Six Realms.

If we allow the evil the Demon Tribe to infiltrate the Heavenly Palace,

it will be our greatest sin.

Bring that Peach Forest junior immortal to me. I will personally interrogate her.

Ziguang.

Speak. What exactly is your relationship

with the Heaven-Devouring Beast?

High God, I've already explained.

I don't even know that Heaven-Devouring Beast.

Don't know?

People usually say that you won't cry if you don't see the coffin.

Do you think your nonsense can trick me?

I am telling the truth, High God.

Moreover, the Heavenly Emperor has already let bygones be bygones.

Why are you still holding onto this?

I'm under the orders of Fuyun Hall now.

I'm one of the junior immortals of Jiuchen, the God of War.

You didn't make any request, just captured and brought me here.

Aren't you afraid that my Senior Deity will blame you?

You dare threaten me?

You are just a junior immortal from the lower realm

It will only take ten lashes of the spirit whip to cause your immortal soul to fly away and scatter!

Speak!

What exactly is your relationship with the Heaven-Devouring Beast?

If there is any, there will be. If there isn't any, there won't be any then.

Why do I need to confess to something I didn't do?

Let's see how stubborn you can be.

Ziguang, hit her.

Senior Deity?

God of War? What are you doing?

I actually want to ask you, what are you doing?

I am interrogating this junior immortal.

What crime did she commit?

You are already aware, but you still ask.

The Heavenly Emperor has already written off this matter and spared her.

You continue to pursue and beat her violently through personal punishments.

Do you not understand the Heavenly Emperor's orders,

or do you want to go against the rule of the Heavenly Tribe?

You!

Don't move. Endure it for a bit.

Senior Sister, be gentle. It hurts.

So you know it hurts.

I know. Of course I know.

I also know that Senior Sister is the nicest to me.

You came as soon as you heard I was in trouble.

I'm not that idle yet.

I'm here to treat Senior Deity and visit you at the same time.

Is Senior Deity's injury that severe?

The Senior Deity suffered damage to his immortal soul.

He was also sealed in ice in the Immortal Sea, and suffered illness from the cold.

His vitality was affected when he saved you. Do you think it's serious then?

Endure it for a bit. I'm almost done.

Senior Deity?

Senior Deity?

I wish to pay my respects to you, Senior Deity.

Senior Deity?

Senior Deity, I... I'm coming in.

Senior Deity?

S-Senior Deity...

Why didn't you avoid it?

Although I'm afraid, I don't have a reason to avoid it.

You're not afraid of this "Ancestor's Sword" being merciless?

Since you saved me,

you won't harm me.

Come over here.

Why did you enter my inner hall?

I heard that, because you saved me,

you were injured. I came specially to visit you.

Senior Deity, are you truly alright?

Why did you trespass into the Immortal Sea that day?

I already gave my reason.

It was to avoid those two Heavenly Soldiers.

Plus it was my first time coming to the Heavenly Palace, I knew nothing about this place.

It was later that I found out that place is called the "Immortal Sea".

It was also the place where you slept for a long time after the war at Dark Capital Mountain.

I truly was delivering medicine that day.

In the end, I accidentally encountered the ceremony for the God of Heavenly Thunder.

He's the most ill-tempered immortal in the Four Seas, Eight Wildernesses, Three Mountains and Six Realms!

How could he be the God of War?

God of Heavenly Thunder, in the Nine Heavens,

is a High God who rewards and punishes.

You shouldn't mock him this way, even if he by some chance were hit with five thunder hits to the head!

I'm not scared.

My magic power may be inferior, but I'm now considered a member of Fuyun Hall.

I don't want to know about the other immortals out there.

It is enough for me to know you, Senior Deity.

Give it to me.

What?

That day, I had an Immortal Knot in my hand. You took it away.

I think...

I think... I dropped it somewhere?

Senior Deity, the first time I met you, you woke up.

You said we have a destiny.

Since we are destined,

regarding this minor matter,

you wouldn't quibble with me, right?

I'll give you ten days to find that Immortal Knot,

or else I'll send you to the God of Heavenly Thunder.

You are full of lies.

When you are in this hall, you will curb your arrogance.

You may leave now.

Yes.

Senior Deity.

Even now, I still think I'm dreaming.

You really did wake up, Senior Deity!

The heavens really have eyes and bless the people.

Why are you looking at me like that?

You... forget it.

- What do you want to say? - No need to say anymore.

Speak directly if you have anything to say.

Since I obtained my human form, I've been working under you.

From a junior soldier, I became an official.

Your words are my command. You only need to give the orders,

I surely will go through water or tread on fire, remove all the obstructing vines—

Take off the hair ornament.

Yes!

Wipe off the rouge.

Why?

Be sparing in your make-up when you are here.

I don't want to.

All the other fairies dress like this.

The other fairies didn't have beards before and are unable to ring a four thousand jin golden alloy bell! (T/N 2000 kg/2200 US pounds)

Get up.

There's something I need you to do.

Please tell me.

I need you to keep a close eye on someone.

Report back to me her every move.

No matter how I look at it, it's just a regular rope knot.

It's not even some magical weapon or precious treasure,

but he still insists on getting it back!

Stingy!

I'm not giving it back!

Sister Shisan, you are here.

- What are you holding in your hands? - What? I'm going out to work.

Get back here!

Why are you looking at me?

You're very suspicious.

You, right now, at once, immediately. Pack up your things and move into my room!

Starting from today, you'll be living with me.

Why?

You dare to disobey orders?

I... can't live with you.

- Why? - Because you're a man!

Nonsense! Who told you that?

Senior Deity said it! I heard him call you "Shishan".

"Shi" as in "rock", "shan" as in "mountain". (T/N the name is now "Shisan" - "Thirteen")

W-What woman would have that name?

Shishan was my previous name.

So you were previously a man!

Men and women should not touch hands when they give or receive things.

I'm a young and beautiful fairy. How can I live with you in the same room?

You won't move in, right?

I won't move in, even if you kill me.

Alright.

You won't move there, so I'll move here!

I'm telling you. I'm very noisy when I sleep.

I snore, grind my teeth, and talk in my sleep.

You must be mentally prepared.

When I was a male, a merman,

I was a soldier under the Senior Deity. I could endure in a tent full of hundreds of men.

You'd better think about yourself.

I'm going to sleep. Can you stop looking at me?

I can't!

I will sew your mouth shut,

let's see how you'll snore then!

This is too much bullying!

Why must the Senior Deity monitor me?

He even sent a fish. Isn't he belittling me?

If not because of me, you would still be cooling off in the Immortal Sea.

It's really true that good people are not being rewarded, while the scum live a long life.

My father was right.

Popular sentiment is vicious, the ways of the world are difficult.

Jiuchen.

What a great murderous aura!

You personally murdered your own hundred thousand Heavenly Soldiers!

How are your actions different from those of a demon? [ Demon Lord ]

Senior Deity, Senior Deity.

I even used to revere you.

Worship you as my god.

I didn't expect you to be the same as the God of Heavenly Thunder.

When I'm at home, I'm confined by my father.

I'm under close observation by you when I'm here.

I can't believe this,

in the vast Four Seas and Eight Wildernesses,

is there really no place for me?

Open.

Senior Deity?

Senior Deity? Senior Deity!

Medicine.

Senior Deity...
