[ Love and Destiny ]

[ Episode 24 ]

Senior Deity.

Strange? How come her soul still hasn't been gathered?

Ling Xi, do you hate me,

is that why you do not want your last bit of soul to return here?

Senior Brother!

Senior Brother! What is this?

♫ truly not arranged and planned for us to meet, ♫

This is fire essence. It is a treasure of extreme heat. It can continue a creature's life.

♫ would not permit our roads to meet. ♫

That is the what happened.

In consideration of my State Master's extreme grief of losing her daughter and since the truth has not been fully investigated yet,

may Heavenly Emperor spare my State Master from her crime of trespassing onto the Purple Cloud Platform.

The Heavenly Race and its vassal state, the Shanling Tribe, have always been on good terms for millions of years.

I also admire and rely on your State Master.

But the matter about Ling Xi has wide implications.

She indeed cannot be easily pardoned.

But if I had known earlier that Ling Xi is a member of the Shanling Tribe,

I would have never executed her rashly without informing your State Master.

Heavenly Emperor is benevolent.

Since the matter has come to this, I will not overly dwell on this matter any longer.

May Shanling State Master contain her grief.

- Baishan. - I am here.

Prepare some gifts for me to gift to Shanling's State Master.

Yes.

Thank you, Heavenly Emperor.

I will go in by myself. Do not follow.

State Preceptor, this...

No matter what happens,

you must not make any move.

State Preceptor.

Greetings, State Master.

I have already narrated to Heavenly Emperor

that the reason for you trespassing into the Heavenly Court is because of severe grief in losing your daughter.

Heavenly Emperor was very shocked and asked me to send you his regards on his behalf.

You are talking on behalf of the Heavenly Emperor?

What a State Preceptor who is loyal to his master, compassionate to his state, and shares his master's burden.

Men! Arrest him!

Yes!

State Master, what crime did I commit?

I will let you die aware of your crimes.

State Preceptor Jingxiu held grand scale constructions,

is extravagant and dissipated, constructed an ancestral temple privately,

overstepped and broke the rules. First crime, doubting his colleagues,

killing off meritorious officials and great generals.

Forcing the alien tribe from the impoverished wilderness to revolt.

Second crime, acting in arbitrary fashion, governing in an unfair manner, and was not a man of his words.

Third crime, disloyal as a subject, betraying his master and abandoning justice,

fooling his superior and concealing things to his subordinates, craving fame and success.

Fourth crime, ruthless and cruel, used heavy torture to blackmail everyone.

After being in power for so many years, it caused the citizens to be full of fear and complaints. Fifth crime—

State Master.

State Preceptor Jing Xiu has committed unpardonable crimes, and will be imprisoned in the forbidden land.

After escorting him there,

he will be further interrogated.

Stop right there! Don't run!

Stop! You are not allowed to run!

Let me teach you a lesson well!

- Let go of me! - Let's see if you still can run!

Stop!

Let go!

Princess.

Princess, his father colluded with the Demon Tribe. He is a son of a criminal.

My Royal Father has already pardoned him from his crime.

He is not an evil person.

All of you, leave.

Yes.

You got off easily this time. Let us go!

Are you alright?

I know your father.

I believe that he will not collude with the Demon Tribe.

No matter what, it is good to stay alive.

Take him away!

Yes!

Greetings, State Master.

We all bow to State Master!

Right now, are you too ashamed to look me straight in the eye?

Princess was not killed by me.

If not because you fooled me before,

how could I have been separated from my daughter for fifty thousand years?

How could she have fallen in the hands of the those evil people

and in the end... not even her bones remained.

Whatever I say now,

you will not believe it anymore.

It is exactly because I trusted you so much that my own daughter died!

Trusted me?

Did you really trust me?

If you really trusted me, why did you go back on your words and allow Yuandu to live?

So, it's really like this.

Ever since then, you were seeking vengeance, that's why you agree to assist me.

You think it's because I noticed your grand talent and mighty strategies

that I wanted to loyally follow you as my master?

Have you forgotten the agreement we had when we made an alliance?

I would assist you to ascend to the throne to replace Yuandu,

then I would personally kill Yuandu to seek vengeance for my family!

If you really want to seek vengeance, you should kill yourself first as payment for your crime.

Have you forgotten?

It was you who was a coward

and betrayed your family! You caused the death of your father and your older brother.

It was you who betrayed your tribesmen, causing others to have a chance to take advantage of them!

You are the mastermind!

How come you still have the nerve here to be saying you want to seek others for revenge?

I was forced.

Within the Four Seas,

the power of the Heavenly Race is strong, the Demon Tribe is fierce and tough,

the Sea Nations are vast, Green Hill is aloof, the Human Race is flourishing.

My Shanling Tribe has weak magical power

and our territory is narrow and small. What must we rely on to continue standing our ground within the Six Realms?

Unbending will, firm belief,

having no fear of sacrificing one's life, striving in an all out manner passed on for generations!

You are the legitimate descendant of the Xuan Bird Tribe,

but you have such weak resolve!

Just to be alive, you betrayed your own father. A person like you...

is claiming to seek vengeance for the Xuan Bird Tribe?

Are you even qualified?

You want revenge?

He is just under the Spirit-Binding Abyss.

Let me tell you, that you need not think about it.

The debt of yours, causing the death of my daughter,

you will never be able to pay it back!

I have already told you

what happened that year. I did not lie to you.

No matter if you believe it or not,

I cannot do anything

to change today's end result.

But for the current situation,

I agree that I am responsible.

If you want to hate me,

I have nothing to say about it.

Of course, you have nothing to say!

I have already taken all your subordinates into custody.

Do not even think of anyone coming to save you!

Go to the netherworld.

Pay for my daughter's life.

Slowly. Slowly, Senior Brother.

You are finally awake. Do you know

that if not because of the Fire Essence

inside this Immortal Knot that preserved your heart,

your soul and spirit would have been destroyed when I entered the palace hall.

This Fire Essence can temporarily replace the Nuwa Stone to preserve your life.

Your Cold Disease will also be completely cured by it.

But Senior Deity, you must not use magic anymore.

It was Ling Xi who saved me.

What time is it?

You exactly slept for one day and one night.

I will not make it in time.

- Senior Brother, where are you going? - I am going to save her.

You are saving her in exchange for your life!

So what?

Teacher, do not worry.

Ling Xi will be back soon.

She is fine.

I will surely take good care of her on your behalf.

Your relationship with your Teacher must be really good.

Chengyan and I have never seen our parents.

Maybe because the Fox Race is naturally laid-back,

it was Teacher who adopted us

and raised us.

In my heart, he is like my real father.

In these long years of becoming an immortal,

those happy and unhappy moments

were all experienced by me alongside them.

But our days in Peach Forest

have always been very relaxing.

You and Ling Xi...

Ling Xi and I grew up together.

I treated her like my real little sister.

But, she was very naughty and would frequently anger Teacher.

How was she naughty?

Nothing really.

Teacher wouldn't allow her to leave Peach Forest,

but she would frequently sneak out.

Doctor Le Bo was protecting her,

just like my Senior Brother.

Senior Deity, he...

He really treats Ling Xi so well.

A man doing things to this level

just for a woman.

Using half of his life's bone and blood in creating her human form.

You think that all that was because of kindness and bravery?

My Senior Brother likes your Junior Sister.

That is Ling Xi's great fortune.

What about your fortune?

Mine?

I think you are blessed too.

- Where are you going? - Going back to Peach Forest.

Senior Deity has not fully recovered.

High God, are you not following him?

Forget it.

At this time, Senior Brother would prefer to be alone.

Ling Xi, I hope you can go through your trials as soon as possible.

We will meet again.

Senior Deity.

Send her now.

Her journey in the mortal world

will end very soon.

And then,

everything will get better.

Come.

This...

[Only Good Morals are Fragrant ]

Hurry! Hurry!

Bring me some more towels.

Hurry!

- Water! - It's here.

- Close the doors. - Okay.

It's so painful!

Madam. Madam, wipe your sweat.

I can't take it anymore.

Madam, endure it a little!

Hurry! Hurry!

Endure it a little, Madam!

So painful.

[ Benevolent Orphanage ]

[ Lin Shaohai ]

Official Lin.

I picked this child up outside our door.

Official Lin, you must take good care of her.

Here.

Okay. Okay.

Nanny Jiang, do not worry.

From today on, she is the eldest daughter of my Lin Family.

She surely will have a smooth-sailing, wealthy, and safe life.

Okay.

So painful!

How come it's not over yet?

Soon, soon! It will be over soon!

Seriously... [ Old Madam Lin ]

- Why is it raining so hard? - Help!

- This... - So painful!

Hurry up!

- Old Madam. - Go inside.

- You're here! - Old Madam.

Spare the formalities.

- Quickly go in. Hurry. I am so anxious. - Hurry and go.

- It hurts! - Old Madam, stop worrying.

That midwife is the best within the ten-li radius!

What is there for me to worry about?

Every woman must pass this stage.

Right.

So painful!

So painful! I can't hold it anymore!

How come the child is not here yet?

Say, Miss, why is that child not here yet?

Shh! Lower your voice! Do you not want to live anymore?

So painful!

Madam, be at ease. Your husband has arranged everything.

Everything has been arranged.

- So painful! - Wife.

Master?

Xiao Ju. Be careful.

Be careful.

Slowly. Slowly.

Okay.

Exert more effort.

Don't be anxious.

It will be out soon.

Mother. Mother.

Mother, is the midwife here yet?

She has gone in.

Good.

Quickly wrap the child.

Okay.

So painful!

Hurry! Hurry!

So painful! So painful!

So adorable.

So painful! Painful...

How come it's a girl?

Madam...

This...

Quickly do it. Quick.

Hurry.

Let's carry her up.

- Oh my... - Congratulations Old Madam and Master!

It is a girl!

- Congratulations Old Madam and Master for gaining a female child. - Okay. Okay.

Good. Good. Come and hang the cape on the right side of the door.

Let everyone know that my Lin Family now has an eldest daughter.

Good. Good. Everyone will be rewarded.

- Thank you, Old Madam. - Come. Come.

Distribute the red packets to them.

Look.

It's enough that she can bear a child. There will be a next time.

Look at those big eyes!

- That round face. - Senior Deity.

After one lifetime, after three trials,

Ling Xi can completely eliminate the demonic aura in her.

Only after that will she truly be reborn.

She has to suffer then.

Look at this little thing.

In terms of suffering, who can surpass yours?

I just hope that Ling Xi will not disappoint your painstaking efforts.

Good little girl!

[ Only Good Morals are Fragrant ]

How was it? Have you found out the whereabouts of Ling Xi?

You actually won't tell me?

I am thirsty.

Come with me.

Quickly drink some!

You have prepared it?

Good tea.

High God Yunfeng.

What's the rush? Your Junior Sister won't go anywhere.

But for you, my legs are almost breaking from running around.

Upon entering, you didn't even know to offer me any tea

I think the High God has already treated this as your home. No need for me to offer you anything.

It's still different from my own house.

Angry?

Fine, I'll tell you.

Ling Xi is currently in the house of a small official in Great Yue State.

The Master is a ninth-ranked scholarly official.

He is a very honest and kind person. He surely will treat her well.

What is the family's surname? Where do they live?

This...

Talk.

Tell me quickly.

Okay. It's fine for me to tell you, but you cannot go see her.

If you go and change her destiny,

everything we have done will be all for naught.

She is my junior sister, so I naturally won't harm her.

What are you doing?

This is a heavenly secret that cannot be shared.

If others learn about this,

my Senior Brother will also be doomed. Hence, I can only whisper it to you.

Then, you can just use sound transfer.

Do you want to hear it or not?

Say it.

She is currently in Great Yue State's...

- Clean this up. - Yes.

I deserve to die! I deserve to die!

Lower your voices. Your Little Miss has just gone to sleep.

After cleaning it up, go now.

Yes.

Here.

Madam, a new doctor has recently came to town.

They might be able to cure Little Miss.

Put down the carriage.

Quickly come and look!

Madam, we are here.

[ Bai Yu Clinic ]

Take this two times a day.

Thank you, Doctor.

Doctor, my Madam brought our Little Miss here to be checked for her illness.

Can you please take a look?

Thank you, Doctor.

We do not know what is wrong with Little Miss.

Even if outside it is already very noisy, she doesn't seem to hear it.

Please take a look if there is something wrong with her.

Doctor, did you hear what my servant said?

What is wrong with this child?

Your guess is right.

She indeed has a congenital hearing disorder.

What should we do?

Is there any medicine to cure it?

This hearing disorder is inborn.

I fear that... it can't be cured.

An inborn illness. It can't be cured.
