Original subtitles

Wang Lu.

We need to cut in line

or else our chicken blood will dry up.

-I want some holy water. -Yes.

-Can we offer our blood or not? When... -That's right.

Don't worry.

I have a plan.

Watch me.

Who's that?

Still nothing? Are you done yet?

-Are you going to offer or not? -What are you doing?

What kind of attitude is that?

I should ask you that question, right?

You keep dilly-dallying here.

Are you a man or not?

If you don't want holy water, scram. Don't waste everybody's time.

-Don't waste our time. -Scram.

-Get down. -Get down.

How is this your business?

Go back to where you came from.

Do you want to cut in line? Dream on.

I don't like what you said.

Were you sent by another Holy Spirit Sorority

to cause trouble?

Cause trouble?

What are you talking about?

Which one of you isn't a die-hard fan of the Holy Spirit Sorority?

-That's right. We are. -That's right. We are.

-We all are. -We're always prepared

to sacrifice for our idol, right?

-Right. -Right.

You're dilly-dallying here. Aren't you wasting everyone's time?

Aren't you ashamed?

-Get down. -Get down.

-Stop hesitating, get down quickly. -Stop hesitating.

-Get down. -You're so great, do it.

Fine.

Watch me.

That's a lot.

He's so bold.

-This guy is awesome. -Does he still want to live?

-That's a lot. Doesn't he want to live? -Isn't that too much?

Yes, it hurts just by looking at him.

QIAN YU, QIAN XUN

Brave sirs.

These are your entry permits.

This way, please.

Thank you.

QIAN XUN

Wang Lu.

Didn't you say we shouldn't ever learn bad things?

Why did you bring me to this kind of place?

Hold your waiting number well.

Treat this as my present for your adulthood.

I'm already 18 years old,

but...

This isn't good, right?

QIAN XUN

Ms. Xiaolan.

I'm coming.

Xiaolan.

Who are you? I don't know you.

I'm Wang Lu.

How could you deny knowing me after becoming successful?

You're a pervert.

If you continue to spurt nonsense, I'm going to scream.

Even if you don't know me,

you surely know your brother, Gouwa, right?

My brother?

That's right.

You, me and your brother

live in the Wang Family Village, in the northeast corner of Gou'er Mountain

in Dongdao Region, Wuhou County, the Great Ming.

Have you forgotten?

I think you've got the wrong person.

I'm not Xiaolan, my name is Qian Xun.

I don't know who Gouwa is.

I also don't know you.

And I've never been to some Wang Family Village.

Please leave after getting your holy water.

No.

Think about it carefully, okay?

We're childhood friends who grew up together.

My father and your mother

even arranged our marriage since birth.

How impetuous.

You dare to disrespect the saintess?

Enemies are really bound to meet, Mr. Zhou.

Wang Lu?

You again.

Guards.

Capture him.

Do you want to know about your marriage?

This one.

This is your love line.

Let me see.

Your love line is long and points upward.

Look.

It splits into three in the end.

This is called, "Love Destined for Three Lifetimes."

That means you'll surely marry someone rich

who'll love and care for you.

-Really? -Yes.

Stop him.

Don't let him leave here alive.

-Yes. -Yes.

Wang Lu.

Mr. Zhou.

I don't think you have a brain inside your head.

Don't you want your other arm too?

Wang Lu.

You were lucky that day.

I didn't expect you to be tired of living.

You came here on your own today.

You know that I'm a Successor Disciple in Lingjian Sect.

Think carefully.

You can offend me,

but if you offend Lingjian Sect...

Can you handle that?

You're using Lingjian Sect to threaten me?

I'm so scared.

Let me tell you.

Mr. He is afraid of you,

but I'm not.

As long as I chop you up into pieces

and throw you into the sewer,

there'll be no proof.

What can Lingjian Sect do to me?

Guards.

Cut off his limbs.

-Yes. -Yes.

Let my friend go!

Wang Lu, let's go.

Wang Lu, let's go.

Liuli Xian.

I guarantee it would work this time.

If it doesn't, you can punish me however you want.

It worked.

Liuli Xian.

Liuli Xian.

It will be done soon.

-It smells so good. -Why are you in a hurry?

-It smells so good. -I'm so hungry.

-Eat more. -Are you hungry?

-Here. -Thank you.

Do you want some?

It's roasted so nicely.

My chicken!

Kids, beat her up!

HE RESIDENCE

So they live here.

I thought it was strange.

A minion in an evil cult dares to act so arrogantly.

It turns out they have the support of a government official.

-Who? -The governor.

This is the governor's guesthouse.

Without his permission,

how can so many people live here?

That makes sense.

Let's go inside and kill that official.

Then hit Elder He in the head and take him away, okay?

Sure.

You must be quick later.

If the servants find you, you must kill them too.

And those cute saintesses, you can't let any of them go.

Promise me.

Well...

Forget it then.

I'll do as you say.

That's right.

It's actually simple.

Don't forget we have a spy inside.

Ms. Xiaolan?

That's right.

Xiaolan and Elder He know each other for two years.

She must know his weakness.

That's why she kept pretending not to know you earlier?

She wasn't pretending.

She was brainwashed and lost her memory.

If she can't even remember who she is,

why would she help you?

She'll remember me.

I'm her ex-lover after all.

Let's make a bet if you don't believe me.

She'll come to me later.

Why are you acting this way?

You stole from us and you're beating us up?

You...

Don't come near me.

Don't come over here.

Liuli Xian, calm down.

They're not bad people.

Listen to me, Liuli Xian.

This is the insignia of the Hai clan of Junhuang Sect.

Why do you have this?

Don't touch my stuff.

You're not Liuli Xian.

You're...

Liuli Xian.

Liuli Xian.

Liuli Xian, what's the matter?

Xiaohai.

Where are we?

Who are you?

Hey, don't leave!

Xiaohai.

I...

Did you prepare that chicken for me?

Liuli Xian.

Let's go home first, okay?

If Wang Lu and Wen Bao see that we're gone,

they'll surely be worried.

That chicken is dirty now.

I'll prepare another one for you later.

All right then.

-Wang Lu, let's go. -Where are we going?

Wang Lu, let's not be stubborn.

Ex-lover?

You're just bluffing, right?

I think we shouldn't wait for her to come and find you.

Let me go inside myself

and bring her here.

Let me experience being a cat burglar too.

I promise I won't harm anyone. I'll just sneak her out.

Forget it.

You're a big target.

If you alarm the guards,

you'd surely get an arrow on your butt and die.

Forget it then.

I'll listen to you.

Don't worry.

Xiaolan would surely come.

What is that?

You'll know tonight.

Here you go.

Thank you.

Xiaolan?

I'm Wang Lu.

Even if you don't know me,

you surely know your brother, Gouwa, right?

Brother?

You, me and your brother

live in the Wang Family Village in the northeast corner of Gou'er Mountain

in Dongdao Region, Wuhou County, the Great Ming.

Have you forgotten?

We're childhood friends who grew up together.

My father and your mother

even arranged our marriage since birth.

Wang Lu, your ex-lover is really here.

Now you know how charming I am, right?

Can you let me see

that bamboo flute?

Of course.

I think I've seen it somewhere.

It belonged to you.

Then why is it with you?

Because you gave that to Wang Lu as an engagement gift.

Don't be ridiculous.

You gave that bamboo flute to Gouwa yourself.

Gouwa?

Your brother.

I came because he asked me to.

My brother?

That's right.

When I left Wang Family Village, he gave this to me.

He said you both made a promise.

If you hear its sound,

you'd surely go and find him.

Xiaolan.

If you get married in the future,

are you going to leave me?

No matter where I go,

if you hear its sound,

I'd surely come and find you.

-You're a dog if you lie. -Okay.

A pinky promise is eternally binding, no lies allowed.

The one who lies is a dog.

Gouwa?

Gouwa.

Gouwa!

You finally remember?

How is Gouwa?

And how about my mother?

They're both doing good.

My father is taking care of them. Don't worry.

That's great.

Thank you, Wang Lu.

Xiaolan.

Do you remember how you were kidnapped and brought here?

I can't remember

the specific details.

I just remember Mr. Zhou coming to our village.

My mother let me offer blood in exchange for holy water for Gouwa.

Then...

Then...

Then he said he wanted to meet me alone.

And then?

Then...

Then I can't remember anymore.

I just remember

when I woke up

that day,

I found myself

groggily lying here in Elder He's residence.

That old lascivious scum.

He kidnapped you in broad daylight.

I tried to escape,

but...

I haven't gotten out of the county yet

and I was captured.

After failing to escape,

Mr. Zhou forced me to take poison.

Every night, I need to take the antidote on time.

Otherwise...

Otherwise, I would bleed out and die.

That bastard.

I'll kill him for you now.

Xiaolan.

Don't worry.

When I capture that old lascivious scum, I'll take you home.

So that you, your mother and Gouwa

can reunite.

Also,

keep this properly.

Someone's missing. Find her.

This is bad. They noticed that I'm gone.

I have to go now.

Go.

It was delicious.

Wang Lu, Wen Bao.

Where did you go?

You didn't take me with you.

Liuli Xian.

Wen Bao hasn't eaten the whole night. He's starving to death.

Can you give him some food?

All right.

Go.

What's wrong with Liuli Xian?

She acted strange earlier.

Why? Did she try to take advantage of you?

I'm serious.

Okay, tell me.

I think Liuli Xian's forgetfulness

is getting more serious.

I thought it was something major.

The mantra Liuli Xian's learning is called "Transparent Sword and Heart."

Her mind is like a child's.

It's not strange if she forgets things.

You're not aware, Wang Lu.

She got lost earlier.

When I found her,

it seemed like she completely turned into somebody else.

Her eyes exuded a murderous aura.

Her tone was also scarily mature.

She's not the Xiaoliuli I know at all.

Then, in an instant,

she became this way again.

And she completely forgot

what happened earlier.

So you suspect that Liuli Xian

has schizophrenia?

"Schizophrenia"...

What's that?

It's hard to explain.

Don't think too much.

Liuli Xian isn't an ordinary person anyway.

A 16-year-old with the mind of a 5 or 6-year-old.

It's normal to turn into a different person once in a while.

My master is the same too.

A 100 or 200-year-old woman who acts like a young girl daily.

She's really funny.

That's perfectly understandable.

Yes, right.

I need to tell you something.

I saw Xiaolan today.

How was it?

Did she recognize you?

I was right indeed.

Those saintesses were all kidnapped.

Then they were all brainwashed

and became that lascivious scum's tool.

A cute and innocent young girl like Liuli Xian

would surely be their target.

You must take good care of her.

Her happiness is in your hands.

Wang Lu, don't say ridiculous things.

Why are you blushing then?

I...

I'm just not good at taking care of girls.

This is what we'll do.

Let Wen Bao take care of Liuli Xian.

I'll go with you to capture Elder He, okay?

No, look at them.

I'm not sure who will take care of whom. They're both kids.

How can parents like us

leave them?

Wait.

Who are the parents?

Aside from us, who else would it be?

You're the mother.

This is not negotiable.

Okay, Wang Lu.

Let me ask you then.

What is your plan?

A beautiful seduction trick.

A beautiful seduction...

Trick.

Beautiful girl.

You've waited so long, right?

I'm coming.

-No. -No.

Liuli Xian is too uncontrollable.

She'll kill him before we can get answers from him.

How will we investigate then?

That's true.

It would be great if that six-star envoy is a girl.

Won't it be easy for me to deal with her with my looks?

It's a shame that he's an old man.

What if...

Xiaohai.

You...

Your master can do it.

Why didn't I think of that?

I'll contact her. Wait for me.

Welcome to reporter Wang Wu's live report.

These paper cranes are actually new instant communication services.

It's a bit like messenger pigeons in the mortal realm.

However, sometimes, when the pigeon arrives,

the person is gone and feelings have changed.

This instant communication service

can indeed use texts

and voice messages.

However, sometimes, it's a hassle

since you can't pretend you haven't read the message.

You also can't pretend you didn't hear it.

There they go again.

This is bad. Won't this become a crime scene?

Six-Spike Blood Poison.

Theoretically,

knowing the Wuxiang Mantra makes me immune to poisons.

Why am I being bothered by the Six-Spike Blood Poison?

Even though this Six-Spike Blood Poison is flowing in my body,

it doesn't seem to have any harmful effects.

It's even helping me heal hidden wounds.

Hai Tiankuo.

What exactly is your plan?

Fifth Elder, you are full of vigor.

It seems that you have recovered from your injuries.

I just wonder

if you'd still be so spirited under tonight's full moon.

And why did Wang Lu

pull out Head Disciple's Kunshan Sword.

And even got Liang Qiu's approval.

Is this fate

or are you giving me a sign?

That woman, Liang Qiu.

You're not dead yet

and she's in a rush to remarry.

In a few years, she'd forget about you.

That's fine.

This way, I'm the only one

with memories of you.

Master...

Why are you in such a rush?

Do you need to pee badly like me?

Master, please help me.

We need you in this glorious quest of eliminating the evil cult.

Hey, you're training in the mortal realm.

If I help you, that's called cheating.

Forget it.

Haven't you played tricks, cheated, lied, and sneaked around too?

Won't this just be one of those instances?

I'm your only successor.

As they say, "If your disciple is in need--"

"Your master likes it."

Isn't that what you said yourself?

Master, all right.

From now on, I'll listen to you.

I'll do what you say.

I won't disobey you, okay?

I can't, I'm busy.

It's fine if you're busy. At least, give me a magical treasure.

Or a brilliant trick or something.

Do you think it's easy for me?

I met Qianling Cult's elder in Wuhou County.

He's an old lascivious scum.

-What should I do? -Why do you talk so much?

You're noisy.

Master.

Master.

Hello?

Go back to where you came from.

Remember to cause trouble.

Wang Lu, how's it going?

She totally dissed me.

She's not going to help.

What use is this paper doll?

What do you mean by that?

Are you insane?

You dare to throw me away?

Xiaohai, you've made a mistake.

Well, Wen Bao, that's not right.

So it's you.

Fifth Elder.

Xiaoliuli, don't be scared.

I'm your Fifth Elder.

Your master told me to take good care of you.

Xiaohai.

Is she...

Is she really Fifth Elder?

Strictly speaking,

she's a clone of Fifth Elder.

She acts and speaks like Fifth Elder,

but she's actually a paper doll.

Does she have Fifth Elder's capabilities then?

That's hard to say.

She's a paper doll after all.

She has the weakness of paper.

She's made of paper?

Master.

I usually can't win against you up in the mountain.

Now that you're made of paper,

I'll deal with you like the Seven Armies that Guan Yu flooded.

Xiaohai.

This chicken is almost finished.

There's more outside.

My chicken.

Go.

Are you still looking?

Are you looking again?

Master, have a seat.

Sit down.

Master, let me get you some tea.

Why aren't there any cups?

-There are no cups? -There are no cups.

This is bad, I'm wet.

-I'll melt. -What should I do?

Think of a way to make me dry.

Dry?

Give me my allowance first.

-You... -Me?

You...

Are you stupid?

Even if I'm made of paper, I was made by an immortal.

Have you seen an immortal who's afraid of water or fire?

I knew it. How is that possible?

I was kidding, okay?

-My mouth is dry from screaming. -Master, have some tea.

Master.

I met...

I met an old lascivious scum.

I want to use a beautiful seduction trick.

Everything is prepared, except for the beautiful woman.

-Can you do it? -Go away.

You want Lingjian Sect's Fifth Elder to seduce a lowly man?

Dream on.

Are you not confident about your looks?

Reverse psychology is useless.

I'm not interested.

How would I dare?

In terms of looks,

you've conquered the Nine Continents.

Men who see you

all fainted.

I just woke up.

-However... -However...

I don't want to hear it.

Master, you love me the most.

Harder.

All right.

That's enough.

Since you spoke so much truth just now,

I'll go and help you this time.

You're so kind, Master. You love me the most.

Don't be so full of yourself.

Nothing is free in this world.

It makes no sense for me to do the work while you're just giving instructions.

Master, are you kidding?

You have my allowance. I have no money.

You want to get things done without spending money?

Two thousand spirit stones upon completion. That's it.

Pay half as the deposit first.

Tell me.

What is that old lascivious scum's type?

The bitchy type

or the lovely type?

I have to go home and prepare.

You're so silly. What do you need to prepare?

Look at yourself.

You look like a goddess.

I can't look at you anymore. I'm going to faint.

-I'm beautiful, right? -Yes.

Master.

You're very beautiful indeed,

but your presence is too strong.

Ordinary people won't be able to handle it.

Should I act like

a pitiful young girl who's selling herself to bury her father?

I'll be the young girl and you'll be the corpse.

I'm so handsome. How can I be a corpse?

You're so strange.

That was a good idea.

Let me think again.

Maybe I need to...

I have a brilliant idea.

Really?

HE RESIDENCE

-Father, don't sell me. -Let's go.

I still want to wash your clothes, cook and take care of my siblings at home.

-Stop. -Shut up.

Who are you?

I'm Wang Mazi. She's my daughter.

I want to find my daughter a job here.

-Is he really your father? -Yes.

Since she's your daughter, tell me.

Which year, month, day, and time was she born?

You must ask her mother. How would I know?

I think you're a human trafficker.

Sir, you can't say that. I...

Her father gave her to me as payment for his gambling debts.

Doesn't that make her my daughter?

Father, I really don't want to leave you.

Get away from me! Give that back.

I'll sell you to whoever I want. Besides...

Go.

Ask Mr. Zhou to come out.

If you look at me again, I'll sell you to a brothel.

Miss, are you all right?

Sir.

Help me.

My father wants to sell me.

I'm Mr. Zhou.

Hi, Mr. Zhou.

Name your price.

-I want that deed of sale you're holding. -Really?

Okay.

Take the money and scram.

Sure.

You're lucky you got sold here.

Serve your new owner well.

My daughter.

Father.

Mr. Zhou.

You saved my life.

Whatever you want me to do,

I'll surely do it.

Are you serious?

I will never forget

the kindness that people show towards me.

You're the same, right?

In that case,

take good care of our master for me.

Yes.

Let's go.

Miss.

If you take good care of our master,

everything can be agreeable.

Mr. Zhou.

What would you like me to do?

Nothing much.

Just do your best.

Understood.

Damn it.

Wang Wu.

Have you gone crazy?

Instead of being an elder,

you came here to flirt.

What do you want to do?

Never mind.

It's for the sake of eliminating the evil cult and uphold justice.

Even if I sell my body,

my soul is pure.

I'm not doing this for those 2,000 spirit stones.

Look all you want.

Don't be scared.

Guards!

Come in.

Get her out of here.

Get her out!

Scram.

-Scram! -Okay.

Miss, go.

Miss, let's go.

Leave, hurry.

You old freak.

I've never been humiliated this way at my age!

Master, don't lose your confidence, okay? It has nothing to do with you.

That guy can't recognize beauty. It's not your fault.

Whose idea was this?

Do you want me to strangle you?

Master, this is for the sake of justice.

Fuck that.

If only Lady Owner is here.

Her young face with her figureless body,

she's totally his ideal woman.

Fine, go and find her.

Keep your 2,000 spirit stones as travel expenses. I'm done.

Master, I was kidding.

Give me one last chance.

Again?

Weren't I humiliated enough?

Do you really want to turn me into that?

Master, don't be mad.

I have an idea already.

I'll use someone else to seduce Elder He.

You just need to make a move at the crucial moment and vanquish him.

I'll beat him to death.

I'll surely capture him this time.

Really?

You're that confident?

Where would you find a girl?

Master, just wait. The girl will be right here.

The only flat-chested girl I know is Ling'er.

She's not a young girl either, she's already 30.

What exactly do you want?

You've been frowning all day.

Are you mourning?

I'm not dead yet.

Scram!

Get out, all of you!

Zhou Mingrui.

In two hours,

find me a girl.

Otherwise,

bring me your head.

All right, Elder He.

What a bunch of trash!

Miss, do you know how to get to the governor's office?

Miss.

Are you blind?

Be careful or you might get assaulted.

Look at who I am.

You're so cute, I like it!

-I'm beautiful, right? -Yes.

However,

I need to remind you.

Even though training in the mortal realm is very important,

you're putting yourself in danger.

It seems like a big sacrifice.

You're so bad.

I am not selling my body, just my skills.

If that old lascivious scum makes a move on me,

you must help me instantly.

Otherwise, I'm doomed.

Of course.

All right, I'll get going.

Are you going straight in?

That sudden?

Earlier, you even made me prepare so much.

I'll get going.

Cute girl, you can do this.

Oh my goodness.
