Episode 23

18

Who really are you?

19

How come you used your spiritual energy to save me?

20

Stop right there!

21

Soul Destroying Arrow?

22

Mu Ci?

23

Princess, you recognized the wrong person.

24

Remove your mask and face me with your true appearance.

25

We are not of the same path. No need to meet.

26

Why then are you carrying the Soul Destroying Arrow and why did you trespass into Beiyuan Mountain Villa?

27

Are you targeting Xu Feng? Do you know the consequence of destroying his primordial spirit?

28

Mu Ci, I know that it's you.

29

Your move earlier was exactly similar with before.

30

Princess, you better just take good care of yourself.

31

Mu Ci!

32

Mu Ci, come out!

33

Mu Ci, come out! Face me!

34

Why must you pretend to not know me?

35

How come it's like this? How could...

36

Return my memory!

37

Mu Ci!

38

Give it back to me...

39

Why did you ask me to come here?

40

You gave me a gift that I really loved.

41

Of course, I should give you something in return.

42

Look.

43

A heart?

44

Now, I'm giving you my heart.

45

You must keep it well.

46

Okay.

47

I promise you that I'll keep it at a place closest to my heart,

48

until the last moment of my life. Okay?

49

Sorry.

50

I went back on my word.

51

Your Majesty, what's wrong with you today?

52

Chest tightness. Shortness of breath.

53

Based on this pulse,

54

his breathing is quite very stable.

55

Did you find anything wrong?

56

If Your Majesty is feeling chest tightness and shortness of breath,

57

I'll go make you a tonic

58

to nourish your heart and lungs. I guarantee that after taking it, your breathing will become smooth and unhindered.

59

Today, not only do I feel stuffed in my chest and has breathing difficulty,

60

I'm having a splitting headache too.

61

How come he's making things difficult on me again?

62

There is nothing wrong with this pulse.

63

Were you able to diagnose anything?

64

Your Majesty, has been tiring yourself on state affairs these past days. You are too exhausted.

65

Let's do this, I'll prescribe you a nerve calming medicine.

66

I guarantee that it can resolve your headache.

67

Today, not only do I have chest tightness, difficulty of breathing,

68

and a splitting headache, my appetite is also poor

69

and I can't sleep.

70

How come he kept giving me difficult problems every day?

71

This pulse is clearly very good.

72

Did you find anything wrong with me?

73

May I ask when your symptoms started and how long has it been going on?

74

When I don't see you, it would always be like that.

75

When I see you, it would slowly diminish.

76

I heard that the medical skills of the Sacred Healer Tribe is unrivaled in this world.

77

As the Saintess of the tribe, and after staying in my manor for several days,

78

you still haven't diagnosed what my illness is.

79

You kept giving me useless medicines to brush me off.

80

Don't you feel embarrassed?

81

Forgive me for being slow-witted. Please give me a few more days.

82

I surely can cure your stubborn illness.

83

Could King Yi have 'lovesickness'?

(xiang si syndrome literally translates to yearning syndrome)

84

How is that possible?

85

That King Yi hasn't even seen my face.

86

If it's 'lovesickness', he must be missing some other person.

87

That's right.

88

Could it be this King Yi kept yearning for someone, that's why, he developed 'lovesickness'?

89

As I told you, you're not getting the essence of the skills you're learning.

90

Let me ask you, which medical book has ever mentioned 'lovesickness'?

91

Go... Go and look for more books.

92

If we're unable to cure King Yi, we all will get in trouble.

93

Got it.

94

Quickly go.

95

Lovesickness?

96

[Beiyuan Mountain Villa]

97

I heard that these past few days, His Majesty would keep asking for that Saintess of the Sacred Healer Tribe every 3 to 5 days.

98

She would stay for a long time in his chambers. Before, when Lady Sui He comes,

99

His Majesty would drive her away just after a few words.

100

Looks like His Majesty treats this Saintess in a very different manner.

101

Indeed. His Majesty is really concerned about that Saintess.

102

Look at how the recent fresh fruits being delivered to us gets to be delivered to that Saintess' place every day.

103

Could it be that His Majesty has feelings for that Saintess?

104

This is Beiyuan Mountain Villa. There are some words

105

that you mustn't casually say. Let's go.

106

Saintess.

107

Marquis Nanping asked me to deliver that to you.

108

Hope Saintess can properly answer the questions written on it.

109

At this time five days from now, I will come to get your reply letter.

110

What are you thinking?

111

Qiang Huo, it's you. I'm not thinking of anything.

112

Jin Mi, when you checked King Yi's pulse, is there any life threatening danger?

113

Since that's the case, why don't we just quickly go back?

114

Although His Majesty's life is not in danger, it's true that he's not feeling well.

115

Since we're here, how could we go back without curing him?

116

If we're unable to diagnose his illness, won't that bring shame to our Sacred Healer Tribe?

117

Moreover, if we don't nurse his health well,

118

I still have to be buried with him eventually.

119

Aren't I right?

120

You said that Cousin frequently called for that Saintess to his chambers and she would stay there for a long time?

121

People in his manor are all saying that His Majesty is very concerned

122

about that Saintess, treats her very differently.

123

Cousin has been unwell these past days.

124

The medical skills of the Sacred Healer Tribe is unrivaled in this world.

125

That Saintess is focused on diagnosing and treating Cousin, so there's nothing wrong for her to stay in his room for a long time.

126

Don't make random guesses like them.

127

Yes.

128

Oh, right. Do you know the name of that Saintess?

129

It seems to be Jin Mi.

130

Jin Mi?

131

Looks like Your Majesty's appetite these past days has been good.

132

That's right. But you mustn't let Jin...

133

...don't let the Saintess know about it.

134

Or else, this act will be in vain.

135

Talking about the Saintess, she hasn't been touching the food delivered to her these past days.

136

Did it not suit her taste?

137

According to her maid attendant, the Saintess is sick.

138

I fear that she won't be able to come today.

139

Why didn't you tell me earlier?

140

That day, the wind was strong. I told you to not sit in the garden for so long, yet you wouldn't listen.

141

Now, really great.

142

Here. Drink the medicine. Quickly recover.

143

I, Healer Qiang Huo from Sacred Healer Tribe—

144

How did she get sick?

145

Replying to King Yi, Saintess is just having some colds.

146

After taking medicines and resting for a few days, she'll be fine. There's no grave danger.

147

It's already been 2 days. How come she's not yet well?

148

Aren't you all from the Sacred Healer Tribe? How come you couldn't treat such a minor illness?

149

This King Yi, how come he's so angry?

150

Could it be that he's angry because I can't examine him today?

151

But today, he seems to be in high spirit.

152

- Leave.

- Yes.

153

- Your Majesty, I—

- No need.

154

I'm allowing you to not greet me anymore from now on.

155

So handsome and so warm and caring.

156

His future queen is really very lucky.

157

I can do it by myself.

158

My grapes are all sweet.

159

Xu Feng, since little, I've always yielded to you.

160

But Jin Mi, I will never yield.

161

Jin Mi...

162

Who could this Saintess be?

163

Who are you?

164

Greetings, Princess Sui He.

165

Princess?

166

I was ordered by Heavenly Empress to open your immortal memory.

167

What immortal memory?

168

What nonsense are you saying?

169

Forgive me.

170

Don't come near me!

171

Do you know who my cousin is?!

172

You bold insolent man, I will kill you!

173

That must be the Soul Destroying Arrow that godmother is talking about.

174

Who really is that man?

175

He's so hard to defeat.

176

Qiang Huo, why are you up so early?

177

Your Majesty.

178

Have you recovered from your colds? I'm still waiting for you to treat my illness.

179

I have fully recovered. Thank you for being concerned.

180

Your Majesty, do you recently still feel symptoms of chest tightness, difficulty of breathing,

181

splitting headache, and poor appetite?

182

How about you examine me again?

183

He's smiling in such a spring breeze-like genial manner.

184

Looks like he's in a good mood today.

185

Yesterday, when he came, he was striding jubilantly and his face was flushed.

186

Presently, his breathing is regular and he is in glowing spirit.

187

He really isn't as weak as he says.

188

I'm slow-witted.

189

Your Majesty's pulse is very strong and stable.

190

Although the chest tightness, difficult of breathing,

191

splitting headache, poor appetite, and insomnia that I mentioned before

192

were a bit exaggerated,

193

I indeed developed these symptoms before.

194

As the Saintess of the Sacred Healer Tribe, you still don't know the diagnosis?

195

Your Majesty, I...

196

You lacked experience. It's not your fault.

197

Usual medical books will also have no record about my illness.

198

Your Majesty, in my opinion,

199

your pulse...

200

...looks like...lovesickness.

201

You...are you sure?

202

Yes. Looks like...

203

...that lady is your effective medicine.

204

Let me ask you.

205

Do you wish that I'm sick or healthy?

206

Your Majesty, what do you mean by those words?

207

Of course, I wish that you're healthy and will live longer.

208

Come...newly grounded sesame seed paste. Very aromatic...

209

I, Qiang Huo, didn't know that Your Majesty is here. I was disrespectful.

210

Qiang Huo?

211

How come that name sounded so familiar?

212

I...suggest that Your Majesty...

213

can try the medicine qianghuo.

214

Qianghuo?

215

Indeed. Other than dispelling cold and dampness,

216

that medicine can also cure your yang...

217

It can also cure Your Majesty's...

218

weak kidneys.

219

Oh, right. It will be the Shangyuan Lantern Festival.

220

I want to ask you, what kind of lantern do you like?

221

Phoenix lantern then.

222

Mu Ci...

223

Mu Ci.

224

Princess!

225

Quickly jump towards here!

226

Oh, no! This is the Wrath of Hades!

227

Princess!

228

Mu Ci...

229

Mu Ci...

230

When the grudging energy in the River of Forgetfulness gathers, both deity and demons are filled with fear!

231

Princess, leave first!

232

Mu Ci, stop forcing yourself to bear it! It might bounce back to you!

233

Mu Ci!

234

Mu Ci! Mu Ci!

235

Princess, quickly leave!

236

Mu Ci...

237

What really happened that time?

238

Why are you not willing to admit who you are?

239

240

Since we arrived here,

241

you were always frowning and vexed with problems.

242

What's wrong?

243

Nothing. It might be because I'm not used to the water and soil here.

244

I saw that King Yi is in high spirit and full of energy. He doesn't look sick at all.

245

Why don't we just return to the Sacred Healer Tribe?

246

The mission of our Sacred Healer Tribe is to ensure the good health of King Yi.

247

Now that King Yi hasn't personally said that he has fully recovered,

248

how could we just leave without permission?

249

Is it 'we can't' or 'you don't want to'?

250

I'm the Saintess. It's just right that I take up this responsibility.

251

Saintess...

252

It's good that you remember.

253

What's wrong with you today?

254

Nothing.

255

What should I do? Crow... Marquis Nanping...

256

Who should I choose?

257

Is there any news from the Saintess?

258

Informing Marquis, there isn't any movement at all.

259

Looks like she doesn't know my methods.

260

It's time to pressure her.

261

[Beiyuan Mountain Villa]

262

[Right now, the lives of 100 members of the Sacred Healer Tribe are in my hands. I've already sent assassins to enter your tribe. If you don't want your whole tribe to die, I order you to kill King Yi within 10 days. If not, no one in your...]

263

Who are you?

264

Are you alright? Did you get hurt?

265

I'm fine. Thank you, Immortal Run Yu.

266

That was close. If not because you appeared on time,

267

my life would have been a goner.

268

Did you offend anyone?

269

There's not much people that I'm able to have access with since growing up,

270

so don't even say offending anyone.

271

Could it be Marquis Nanping?

272

But he just sent me a letter earlier, so why would he try to kill me this soon?

273

Isn't that too illogical?

274

That arrow was strange. It surely isn't a mortal weapon.

275

Looks like...

276

Don't worry. Just leave this matter to me.

277

Such a beautiful fish scale.

278

That's a dragon scale.

279

Dragon scale...

280

I'm giving it to you. If you want to see me, just chant the Dragon Call.

281

Dragon Calling Chant?

282

Thank you, Immortal Run Yu.

283

So fragrant. This scent is similar to ambergris,

284

but it's way better. Cool and sweet.

285

It's exactly the same as your scent.

286

Don't know if I can use it to make medicines.

287

You only have that one piece. If you use it to make medicine, it's quite a waste.

288

I'm just joking. Immortal Run Yu has given me such a precious item.

289

Of course, I must keep it well.

290

Before, there was an immortal who promised to admire the midnight queen flower with me.

291

But afterwards, because of several reasons, it didn't get fulfilled.

292

Ten days from now, this flower will bloom again.

293

Don't know if I can ask you to admire it with me?

294

You saved me, you gave me a dragon scale as a gift, and now you're inviting me to admire flowers.

295

With Immortal Run Yu showing me such great kindness, you're making me feel a bit embarrassed.

296

If Miss Jin Mi can accept it with great pleasure,

297

I then am contented.

298

The two of us are unrelated, so how can I just accept it without any shame?

299

Although I don't have any possessions,

300

if you have any wishes,

301

just tell me and I will do my best to fulfill it.

302

Then...do you know how to make wine?

303

Make wine?

304

I have an old friend who always says that drinking wine while admiring flowers

305

is an enjoyable event that one will be very reluctant to part with.

306

No problem. Leave it to me.

307

Looks like this old friend of yours has quite good taste.

308

Didn't see Eldest Highness setting up the stars tonight causing the long night to lose its brightness.

309

So boring.

310

- Eldest Highness.

- Immortal, please sit down.

311

In the vast Heavenly Realm, if there's anyone that will notice that I'm not around,

312

it can only be you.

313

I'm sure that Immortal didn't come down the mortal world at this late night to simply meditate and talk about great principles with me, right?

314

In front of Eldest Highness, I dare not be frank.

315

For Immortal Jin Mi's trial this time,

316

His Majesty Heavenly Emperor has given strict orders that no immortals should interfere.

317

Your Highness, you seemed to have overstepped your boundaries this time.

318

His Majesty sent Immortal to guard Jin Mi,

319

but just earlier, Jin Mi almost got harmed.

320

I'm sure that Immortal also noticed through your observation telescope that person isn't mortal.

321

Don't know if Immortal is able to bear the crime of

322

negligence in guard duty?

323

I initially wouldn't dare disobey the orders of Father Emperor.

324

You have your difficulties. I won't dwell on it.

325

It's just that the tree desires tranquility but the wind won't stop blowing.

326

I initially wanted to be in peace,

327

but someone just have to develop evil intentions.

328

Jin Mi is my fiancée after all.

329

If anything bad really happens to her,

330

even if my status is low and my words are weak, I won't just sit by and watch.

331

Even if this matter reaches the Cloud Nine Palace,

332

I am not afraid of it.

333

Your Highness, you said it too seriously. No one will dare harm your future princess consort.

334

Moreover, His Majesty personally gave the orders, so I surely will do my best to fulfill them.

335

Then, I hope that your words will indeed come true. That would be for the best.

336

Let me remind you one last time,

337

other than Jin Mi being my fiancée,

338

she's also the daughter of the Former Flower Deity and Water Deity.

339

Even His Majesty Heavenly Emperor treats her differently.

340

Baring the facts, this trial of hers is just

341

to have a basis for making an exception in promoting Jin Mi straight to Flower Deity. Just going through the motion.

342

If something bad happens to the future Flower Deity,

343

Heavenly Emperor will surely strictly have it investigated.

344

Who do you think will end up as the scapegoat for it?

345

By then, who do you think will step out

346

to ensure that you'll be safe and free of worries?

347

Immortal is intelligent. I'm sure that you've long mastered

348

which eye to keep open, and which eye to close.

349

The time is late. Immortal can just do as you want.

350

[Marquis Nanping Manor]

It's just in front.

351

Father!

352

Wishing Lady thousands of blessings.

353

Sui'er, you're here.

354

Good.

355

- You all leave first.

- Yes.

356

Father.

357

Look. Compared to that Prime Minister Fu,

358

who looks as having more bearing?

359

Of course, you! How could Prime Minister Fu compare to you?

360

What about compared to His Majesty?

361

When father was young, you were the top elite of your generation here in Huaiwu.

362

That time, Cousin hasn't even been born yet.

363

No matter when, in my heart, you are the best father in this world.

364

Having an impressive appearance and an elegant carriage.

365

You...such sweet tongue.

366

You are so intelligent and adorable.

367

In the future, don't know who will be the lucky man who'll get to marry you.

368

I fear that I will be dying in great envy.

369

Father, you're at it again.

370

In this vast Huaiwu, who else will be able to make me willingly just cook some soup?

371

Father, are you going to be envious of Cousin?

372

You always mention your cousin. It's really true that daughters tend to side with outsiders.

373

I seemed to have raised you in behalf of His Majesty.

374

Father, what are you saying?! I won't marry then!

375

Marquis. This is the gum tragacanth soup that Lady made for you.

376

Since father feels that daughters tend to side with outsiders, then don't bother drinking this gum tragacanth soup

377

that I personally made.

378

This was made by my daughter to show her filial respect to me. No one is allowed to compete with me.

379

Slow down... You're forgetting the ways of health preservation again.

380

How is the taste?

381

Great!

382

It was meticulously made by my loving daughter, how can it not be good?

383

The best flavor in this world is merely thus.

384

Yesterday, we've agreed to do the discussion at morning, but it's now noontime.

385

His Majesty has always been punctual.

386

Could it be...that it's really like what the rumors are saying...

387

that His Majesty has developed some unmentionable illness?

388

All are just groundless rumors and made up stories. No need to bother with them.

389

Marquis, when His Majesty was hunting in Mt. Luoye,

390

did he encounter any accident?

391

I heard that there was an army of Liangguo that set up an ambush.

392

Prime Minister Fu, we both are just subjects.

393

We just need to bend our body, exhaust our energy, and loyally serve the royal family.

394

It doesn't matter if it's chaotic outside or below,

395

but we mustn't lose our cool.

396

- Quickly ask for the Saintess of the Sacred Healer Tribe to come here.

- Yes!

397

General Qin.

398

What's wrong with His Majesty?

399

His Majesty isn't feeling well. Please just leave.

400

- Prime Minister, please wait.

- Move aside!

401

Your Majesty...

402

Prime Minister Fu, Marquis Nanping, do you have anything to report?

403

Your Majesty is sick. We all are very worried.

404

I contracted some colds today. Just a minor illness. Nothing serious.

405

Is there any urgent news from the borders?

406

The main army of Liangguo has already successively retreated.

407

Your Majesty, don't worry. With Prime Minister Fu personally attending to the garrison and deciding on important military matters,

408

you can sleep soundly and be free of worries. We all will surely

409

do our best to assist him.

410

Obtaining trusted subjects like you two...

411

what else do I need?

412

- Your Majesty, the Saintess is here.

- Let her in.

413

Do you two still have anything else to say?

414

Your Majesty, be at ease and focus on recuperating.

415

We'll take our leave.

♫ My left-hand’s finger touches the moon, my right hand is selecting Red Threads ♫

426

♫ to bestow upon you and I our desired and predestined love. ♫

427

♫ In the moonlight. ♫

428

♫ You and I. ♫

429

♫ My left hand transforms into feathers, my right hand becomes scales. ♫

430

♫ Some of my lives are spent in the clouds, some are in the forests. ♫

431

♫ I’m willing to follow you and become a speck of dust ♫

432

♫ in order to emerge in this mortal life. ♫

433

♫ My left hands picks you up, my right hand lets go of you. ♫

434

♫ When I clasp my palms together, you are completely drawn back into my heart. ♫

435

♫ In the time it takes for one incense stick to burn. ♫

436

♫ You and I, we become inseparable. ♫
