The Starry Night, The Starry Sea Season 2

Episode 25

Offer the flowers!

Lady, where are you going?

Bid our farewell!

I sincerely pray to the heaven to bless our merfolk clan.

The dead have already rest in peace. The living must continue being strong.

Thousands of generations of merpeople will forever have prosperity.

Thousands of generations of merpeople will forever have prosperity!

Oh, now, the wine is poisoned.

Hurry and withdraw!

Your Majesty, hurry and leave!

We have achieve our goal.

Let's go.

Miss!

Miss, why did you suddenly run to here?

Your Majesty, the human did a sneak attack on Blue Cave this time.

The situation happened so suddenly that we didn't have enough time to set up our defense and suffered great casualties.

I am useless. May Your Majesty forgive my mistakes.

Humans and the merpeople have established a truce agreement.

They instead went back on their words. Totally shameless!

Jin Lin, gather all the important ministers to discuss this matter in the great hall.

Yes.

Kill the humans!

Take revenge!

Flatten Chang Le!

Pay the debt of blood with blood!

Lord, the operation was very successful.

Not only were we able to severely injure the merpeople,

we made them firmly believe that it was the human who went back against their words and didn't follow the agreement.

Merpeople are just ferocious beasts.

Although they are very strong, they are very stupid.

After suffering such a huge blow,

I think that they surely will want to start a war with humans to take revenge for their past grudges.

So your goal

was to make the merpeople take revenge on humans.

As the old saying goes, "There surely is a reason why a war started."

In deploying one's army to go to war, one must have a highfalutin sounding excuse.

As long as humans think it is the merpeople who attacked first,

it will lead to public outcry.

Then the matter of annihilating the merfolk will just follow as a logical consequence.

I already did the task. Where is the antidote?

I forgot to tell you.

The effect of the antidote will only last for 2 to 3 days.

After the drug has lost its effect, we will still need to assess your performance again.

Lady, look how the wind and waves are so calm. The sea is not even making waves.

There really is nothing wrong.

Why are you suddenly acting strange?

Lady, let us go back.

Saying that they are making a truce pact with the merpeople,

all are just lies!

They only wanted to take the opportunity when our defense is lax

to kill us all!

Our merfolk clan has always had a sense of propriety and is kind.

But never thought that our kindness will get used by the humans as a weapon to ruthlessly harm us!

Your Majesty, the humans have always been crafty. They are never honest.

Making a alliance agreement with them is totally looking for death.

That's right...

My subjects,

the mistake of making an alliance agreement is my fault.

Once I have led you all to seek vengeance, I will receive my punishment based on ancestral rules.

Right now, we must stand united and be bound for a common hatred with our enemies.

Fight to the death with our enemies.

Jin Lin, gather the elite troops.

Tomorrow morning, we will attack Chang Le to take revenge for this humiliation.

I will abide.

Your Majesty is wise!

Your Majesty is wise!

Ming Zhu!

Ming Zhu...

Come.

Get up. Come.

Sit down.

Eat the medicine.

Do you feel better?

Sorry. I...when I went to the pharmacy, some mishaps happened that's why...

Don't say it anymore.

Have you not lied to me enough?

There is scent of blood on your hands.

I don't mind how you were before.

But you have already promised to live the rest of our lives together so why did you still lie to me?

What really have I done wrong? Why must you treat me like this?

Ming Zhu,

you better just give up on me.

I have thought about it.

We will never have an ending.

You shouldn't have any expectations with me.

Because I will just repeatedly disappoint you.

Ah Hen!

Will you be just joking with me like last time?

Don't you still understand?

We are people walking in different paths.

Although we met in this vast sea of people,

it can only be fated to meet but not destined to be together.

No way. I don't believe it.

I have already fallen deep into the swamp.

If I don't let you go now, I will bring you doom sooner or later.

Once one enters jianghu, he can never go free.

For me, you are just a dream.

But one will wake up from a dream sooner or later.

A person like me should have disappeared in this world long ago.

I am not worthy to have love and the more I am not worthy to have you.

Mister Lu.

I was supposed to go to the tea house to look for you.

Never thought that I will follow you to here.

I have embarrassed myself.

What's wrong?

Since we are friends,

you should be able to tell me things that are making you unhappy.

I can see that you are having romantic problems.

I cared about a person so much.

But that person doesn't seem to care about me.

I only wanted to pacify the wounds in his heart.

But in the end, even I ended up full of bruises.

Maybe this person...

isn't worthy for you to love him.

The more you care about him, the more you will get disappointed.

Try grasping it.

A love that doesn't belong to you is like the sand in your hands.

The more you grasp them, the more you lose them.

But this is also a good thing.

Only by losing the wrong one

can you meet the right one.

In this world, since there was a person that caused you to be badly bruised,

then there will be a person that will heal your wounds.

[Penglai Abode]

Who is it?

Lu Li, hurry and come in.

Yin Hu, are there any news from Wu Julan or the merpeople today?

None.

Did something bad happen?

Nothing.

It's just that my Lady has been acting strange lately.

Kept feeling that something bad will happen to Wu Julan.

Your Lady is indeed sick.

What sickness?

As they say, missing to the point of infatuation, thinking to the point of getting sick, lovesickness.

Then this illness must be cured.

I am unable to cure such an illness.

In untying a knot, one must still find the person who tied it.

- To cure it, we must still find Wu Julan--- Enough.

Ah Li, don't be too worried anymore.

If there are any news about Wu Julan, I will inform you right away.

Just go back to rest early.

I will go back to convince my clan members

to let them put down their grudges and hatred.

A wave will not form without wind. The person who started these angry waves is my older brother.

I will also go back to convince him to let go of his grudges and hatred.

Let all of these end.

Your Majesty, I have already made proper arrangements regarding the deployment of the troops for tomorrow.

Your health is not that good yet. Let me instead lead the army to attack Chang Le tomorrow.

I know that you have always had a kind disposition, prefers to promote peaceful resolution and not war.

But right now, the humans and merpeople are already going to war.

The people will soon be plunged into misery and suffering. It is just right for Your Majesty to find it unbearable.

Why?

How come Lu Li clearly promised me but broke it?

There is a saying in the human world that states 'Knowing someone by face but not his real heart.'

No matter how much Your Majesty believes Lu Li before,

no matter how much wonderful hopes you had for the humans,

but the reality of the tragedy that happened during the ocean offering ceremony

is still bloodily displayed in front of us.

No matter what, it was all my fault.

I am the one who brought harm to our clan.

Your Majesty shouldn't blame yourself.

Humans have wolf-life ambitions and have long casted greedy eyes on us.

Even without the tragic sea offering ceremony case,

they still will ceaselessly plot to annihilate us.

The disaster is upon us and we are already unable to retreat.

No matter if I believe Lu Li or not,

I already have no choice. I must go to war.

Your Majesty, don't worry.

I will surely have the humans pay for this bloody debt tomorrow.

Jin Lin, I wish you success in carrying out the mission and returning victorious.

A tooth for a tooth, blood for blood.

Lord, Mo Hen brought news earlier

that the merpeople will be attacking Chang Le tomorrow morning.

I know already.

I will make preparations now

to let them have no chance to harm us and be unable to return alive.

Wait.

We won't be doing anything.

Not only will we not increase our defense,

we will even let them kill more people.

This time, I might even die.

If we don't take risks, we will be unable to fulfill our grand ambition.

In tomorrow's battle,

not defending is the best defense.

Not attacking is the best attack.

After tomorrow, our blood and the blood of the citizens of Chang Le that will flow

will become the hatred towards the merpeople.

The more blood that will flow, the deeper will be the grudge.

There surely will be someone who will take revenge for us.

[Chang Le Lu Manor]

Father, mother, my fellow clan members,

I thought of every possible means

and plotted for very long with the final aim of letting Ah Li personally kill Wu Julan.

I know that doing this is unfair to Ah Li.

But if I don't do this, how will I be able to kill the merpeople?

How will I be able to let Ah Li completely forget Wu Julan?

Father, mother, Ah Li is already not a child who is naive.

Since she already know the truth,

let me and Ah Li seek vengeance for our family together.

Soldiers, today, we are making an oath here

that if we are unable to break Chang Le in this attack, we will be ashamed to face our clan.

If we don't kill the humans,

we are forsaking the graces of our king. We all will surely work together

and bravely kill our enemies. Soldiers, to seek vengeance,

if we are unable to do it in this battle, we will rather die that return!

If we are unable to seek revenge, we will rather die than return!

Set out!

Ah Li.

Older Brother.

The weather today is really good. It's rare that I have no official work to do.

Do you want to accompany me for a stroll in the beach?

Okay.

Greetings, Lord.

- Continue your rounds.- Yes.

Do you still remember that when you were little, you liked the most to pull me to the beach to play.

You liked catching crabs and piling sand.

And there was one time

when you were sitting by the reef, the tide suddenly rose.

Good thing I swam to you in time.

Or else, you would have drowned by the reef.

I still remembered that day that older brother hit me for the first time.

Just continue being naughty! Just continue creating trouble!

You almost died, do you know that?!

I heard older brother say that you want to eat shellfish.

I then went on the reef to pick some up.

And then after picking them, who would have thought that it will suddenly be high tide.

I wasn't intentionally being naughty.

That night, older brother apologized to me the whole night.

My ears are already forming calluses because of it.

But after hitting you that day,

in my heart, I actually felt guilty for several months.

In this vast world, everyone has their family.

Right now, I only have you.

No matter what happens, as long as we are together forever, then that is the most blissful thing in this world.

Lord!

- Immediately go back to relay the message!- Yes!

Lord Qin, something bad has happened!

The merpeople have sent an army to attack Chang Le and has already disembarked in our eastern shores.

- What?- Our army only has a troop of soldiers their that were on rounds resisting them. I fear that they won't be able to hold them off any longer.

Hope Lord will immediately send out the army to save them.

Or else, Chang Le is in danger.

What's going on?

Brother...

Older brother...Wake up, older brother.

Older brother...

Older brother...

Older Brother, wake up...

Why must you attack Chang Le? Why must you kill my older brother?

Where is Wu Julan? Where is he?

Attacking Chang Le is an order personally made by His Majesty.

From now on, he will never get bewitched by a human witch like you.

Lu Li, prepare to die!

- Lord Lu...- Older brother...

- Hurry and wake up, older brother.- Bring Lord Lu back to his manor and find the best doctor!

Yes.

Come.

Tomorrow morning, I want you to disguise yourself

and mix into the group of the merpeople then find a chance to hurt me.

Why?

Remember, when you hurt me, you must control it well.

You must hurt me gravely but not kill me.

Don't think of using this chance to make some tricks.

Or else, you will never see your Ming Zhu again.

Dachun, what's wrong with you?

- Something bad has happened outside.- What happened?

Are you alright?

Humans and merpeople are fighting in the beach.

What?

Yin Hu, you cannot go. There are more than a hundred people in the beach now.

If you go, you will just be an arrow shield.

But humans and merpeople already called it a truce.

How come they are now fighting again?

How would I know? Even Lu Li and Lu Xiao got involved.

But Qin Hao already rescued them.

Lu Li is fine.

But Lu Xiao seems to have been injured.

But that guy is so evil. Letting him suffer a little is good too.

Informing Your Majesty, in going to shore this time,

although we were unable to break Chang Le, we were able to severely damage the defense of Chang Le.

More importantly, severely injured the mastermind, Lu Xiao. It can be considered a great achievement.

This time that you all set out,

you have promoted our clan's might and strengthen our fighting morale. Really a joyous thing.

Men! Prepare a banquet! I want to reward these soldiers!

Long live, Your Majesty!

Long live, Your Majesty!

How is my older brother?

His majesty was injured in the cardiosplenic area and lost a lot of blood.

It caused him the depletion of his yang energy, hence, collapsing. I fear that his life is in danger.

Doctor, you must save my older brother! I beg you that you must save him!

Don't worry. As long as there is a ray of hope, I will do my best to save him.

But whether lord will be able to get past this critical moment,

will depend on his own fate. We can only listen to the plans of the heaven.

Older brother...

Don't scare me. Open your eyes and look at me.

Older brother...

Ah Li, the matter has already come to this. No matter how much you grieve, it will not help with anything.

The person that your older brother worry the most is you.

For him, you must take care of your health.

Older brother...

How come this happened?

Never thought that despite everyone doing so much work for the peace between humans and merpeople,

it still was just like drawing water with a bamboo basket and ending up into this tragic state.

The atmosphere of war is like a lifeless scenery, the divine souls in heaven are already angry.

The soldiers that were killed are just abandoned in the wilderness.

Since they already started the war then there is no turning back. Really such great sins...

Did you say earlier that Lu Li and Lu Xiao were both here?

I saw it by my own eyes. Completely true.

The person who led the attack was Jin Lin!

Lu Xiao being here is understandable.

But this Lu Li was also coincidentally here.

Then it means that the merpeople attacked the humans first?

Isn't this too coincidental?

These merpeople kept saying that we humans are vicious and crafty. But it is them that are unfaithful to their promise!

What did you say?

I am not talking about you. I am talking about them.

- You worked hard. - What I did is just proper.

I did follow everything that you tell me to say.

Thank you, Sir. I will take my leave.

You did well this time. The doctor already said

that Lord just lost a lot of blood but wasn't really gravely hurt.

He just needs to recuperate for a few days and he will be fine already.

I so want to make a mistake. Stop your nonsense. Where is the antidote?

What really is happening here? Who was that person earlier?

Forgive me for being unable to tell you anything.

If you don't tell it to me today, don't think of leaving.

Even if you kill me, I will not say anything.

If Lord wants to know anything, just wait for Lord Lu to recover and just personally ask him.

Also, I want to remind you too

that no matter what you saw or heard,

don't say anything to Lady.

Or else, it will be a regrettable matter

for Lord Lu and you.

Say, our Lord has always been courageous and good in fighting.

How come this time, he would get hurt like this by the merpeople?

I heard that Lord's parents also were killed by merpeople.

Then it means that the all three Lu family lives were harmed by the merfolk?

Say, could it be because our Lady and that merpeople king has some ambiguous relationship

- that's why--- Hey!

What crazy things are you people saying?!

You all eat and drink from this manor

yet still dared to say bad things behind Lady's back?!

I think that you all are getting itchy to be spanked already!

Lady, please have mercy. We won't dare do it again.

Zixuan, forget it. Let's just hurry and get the medicines.

Today, you all are quite fortunate. If I hear you all again making up things behind our back,

I will sew all your mouth shut! Hurry and go back to work!

Yes...

Lady.

We clearly have a truce with them so why did the merpeople went against their words and did a sneak attack on Chang Le?

Oh, no, what should we do?

Come over and take a look! People are dead!

Go... Let's go and take a look.

Let's go over and take a look.

Move aside! Move aside!

Move aside!

- Daxi!- Father!

Father!

Sister, don't be sad anymore.

- Father!- You were still doing well when you left the house this morning!

Why did you just leave like that?

Charge into the Blue Cave! Annihilate the merpeople!

Charge into the Blue Cave! Annihilate the merpeople!

Lady, let's go already. Let's go.

Charge into the Blue Cave! Annihilate the merpeople!

- Lady!- Miss, so sorry.

Isn't this the lady in the manor of the head of the Bureau of Maritime Trading?

You are that Lu Li with an ambiguous relationship with that merfolk king, right?

A love between a human and a merman is unheard of. Totally against the principles of heaven!

It was her who made some truce pact with the king of merpeople

that's why such a tragedy was brought upon us, the citizens of Chang Le!

Not only did she cause her own brother to be injured,

she even caused the soldiers of the government to die in vain.

A woman like you is really calamity witch!

Witch! Witch!
