~ Episode 20 ~

Thank you.

May I ask if your lady boss is back?

Why are you looking for her?

I have something urgent.

If she's back,

please let me know immediately.

Based on your accent, you must be from the capital, right?

Are you her friend?

I'm not.

I won't hide this from you.

We've never met before.

Why did you come from such a far away place to look for her then?

I'm looking for her to help me save someone.

How do you know she'll definitely help you?

She definitely will.

Who exactly are you?

If I'm not mistaken, you're the lady boss of Casual Guests' Inn, right?

This is the only way I can think of.

I'm begging you!

Please get up! Please get up!

Does he really look exactly like His Majesty?

Now, his face has become like His Majesty's.

He's no longer able to regain his original look.

Unexpectedly, Ding Song has mastered such a powerful witchcraft.

Moreover, His Majesty is also currently in his hands.

This matter is quite troublesome.

Saving His Majesty,

do you have any good choice of person?

I do have two.

I'll bring you to see him first.

Where's he?

It's bad. He must have escaped.

In that case, he definitely won't be able to go far.

Let's look for him everywhere.

Hurry up and chase after him!

What's the matter?

How was it?

His pulse is slow for a while and fast for a while.

His pulse feels alive for a while

and dead for a while.

I don't know what's happening, either..

I can only prescribe some medicine for him to try.

Okay.

Xiong Fei, how is it going with you?

We've seen A Ji Ya.

What did she say?

She didn't say anything.

Bai Ze.

A Ji Ya is indeed a member of the Illuminati.

The Magic Stars and Star Chart are taken away by her.

- It's unexpected. - There are many more unexpected things.

This old man is actually her Teacher.

Now, he's the only one who knows the whereabout of the Magic Star.

Do you believe now?

How can she treat us this way?

I... I'll go and get the medicine.

Bai Ze, since what happened has already happened,

you just have to accept it.

The Magic Star and Star Chart being stolen this time

indicate that we need to have a reassessment.

We'll discuss further when I return.

What's happening? What's happening?

I'm sorry. I'm sorry, little Biao Zi.

- Zi Su, what should we do? - I'm sorry.

Yuan Shuai, quickly bring me a warm towel! Quick!

- Okay! - I'm sorry.

It's fine. It's fine. Don't be afraid! Don't be afraid!

We are all here.

It's fine. It's fine.

We are all here. Calm down.

It's fine.

If Elder Jiong Ye really has a son,

how could he not be tormented by this strange illness?

I want all of you to search!

Even if you have to dig the ground deep, you must find the Magic Star!

[Time to Illuminate]

With respect to Elder.

Is there something going on?

Your humble servant saw Gong Zi Xu's subordinate, He Cao,

entering Elder Jiong Ye's room just a while ago.

What's so surprising about it?

He was rummaging inside there as if he was looking for something.

What was he looking for?

Elder Jiong Ye is the Teacher of Gong Zi Xu and A Ji Ya.

Also, A Ji Ya and the Magic Star have an intricately connected relationship.

I'm afraid that Gong Zi Xu has intentions to hide it from you and look for such a thing.

Hence, He Cao didn't really find anything.

Am I right?

That's right.

Just to make sure, I already sent my men to check on it again.

- Come. Look. New and good. - Excuse me. Excuse me.

How was it?

- Did you find anything strange in Elder Jiong Ye's room? - Yes.

It's the same as it was before.

There's nothing strange.

It's just that...

after taking the medicine, his whole room became a mess.

Are you sure that A Ji Ya has something

that she hid at Elder Jiong Ye's room?

Although we haven't seen each other for three years,

I still have the confidence

of knowing A Ji Ya,

Elder Zhao Ran has orders.

These people must be brought alive.

- You can leave now. - Yes.

A Ji Ya.

What is it?

I want to ask you about the Magic Stars.

Since you like to know it that much,

then I'll just tell you.

The Magic Star isn't with Bai Ze and the others.

It was taken away by me.

Take away?

Where did you hide it?

The Magic Star currently isn't with me.

Don't make guesses anymore.

Is it with Elder Jiong Ye?

A Ji Ya, why do you all want to obtain the Magic Stars?

I reckon that you've heard of the legend about the Magic Stars.

You might feel that it's quite absurd.

But I believe. I want to use the power of the Magic Stars

to revive my father. Let time travel back.

But right now, I have a more definite goal.

I want to let the people who killed them

suffer retributions.

Okay. I get it.

Three years ago, you left the Illuminati

not because you rebelled against the sect,

it was because of this. Am I right?

I've never thought of to rebel against the sect.

No matter where I am, my heart has always been with the Illuminati.

A Ji Ya, don't tell Elder Zhao Ran what we've talked about today.

Do you understand?

Elder Zhao Ran has desired the Magic Stars for so long.

He would never let me off.

I will not let anything happen to you.

Have you ever doubted the teachings of the Illuminati?

How about the young children?

Can they?

Set out!

Yuan Shuai has already gone to cook the medicine.

Are you still being sad about A Ji Ya's matter?

I am being sad for myself.

Zi Su, I'm sorry about what happened before.

Older Bro Bai Ze, I didn't put it to heart.

I just hope that you won't just listen and believe just one side next time.

Think about it more.

Don't let your emotions dictate you.

Oh, right. How is Elder Jiong Ye?

I feel that the current prescription might not work.

What do you mean?

Based on your medical skills...

I am suspecting that the source of the poison inside this old man is not that easy.

Right now, only he knows the whereabouts of the Magic Star.

No matter what, we must cure him.

How is it?

Qian Meng, I love you.

If there is a next lifetime, I want to meet you in another way.

Don't look anymore! Hurry and leave!

Older Bro Fei, you seemed to be very worried about that Illuminati old man.

All Illuminati people are not good people.

That old man doesn't know anything.

Although he is a member of the Illuminati,

he probably isn't a bad person.

Say, what is your opinion about his illness?

I don't know, either.

Right now, we can only hope that this medicine will work.

It should be more or less fine already.

Be careful.

Let's go.

Triple Illumination God!

Gods and ghosts in Heaven and Earth.

Yao* hour has passed. (* 5 pm to 7 pm)

The curfew starts!

Let's go.

- Hey...what's going on? - Go. Go.

What are you doing? Hey!

Why are you...

- Customers, we are already closed. - There.

- Search that part! - Stop your nonsense!

I'm asking you. Where did those group of people hide?

What people?

Our shop is already closed.

Where am I going to look for people for you?

Lord Gong Zi, we've already checked upstairs and downstairs, there are no people.

We also didn't discover any secret passage.

Here. One more mouthful.

Just a bit left.

You're really good.

So bitter.

No. You must drink this all.

You must drink it.

- If you don't drink it all, you're not allowed to go out to play anymore. - Right.

Come. Come. Hurry and drink it.

Come. Last mouthful.

Greetings Lord Gong Zi.

Lord Gong Zi, he knows where those people are.

Where are they?

Owner! You bastard!

Don't move.

Mister, this way please.

Let's go.

How do you feel?

Do you still feel dizzy?

Do you remember where the Magic Star is?

Don't rush.

I want to eat some filled buns.

At this time, how can there be anyone selling buns?

I just want to eat buns! I just want to eat buns!

Yuan Shuai, go make some.

I'll go make buns.

- Go this way. - Let's go, quick!

You actually were able to find this place?!

Nice to see you. Nice to see you.

I finally was able to see your three's true identity.

But...your friend...

is not that reliable.

Or else, we really would have to waste a bit more time.

You turned yourself into Zhao Ran's lackey.

Prepare to die!

Be careful!

Why is he perspiring?

Zi Su, what is going on?

It must be that the poison in his body is pushing the medicine out.

Zi Su, do you remember that it was written in the collection of books in the Palace?

What was written?

I can't remember it that well, either.

But I think that Elder Jiong Ye's situation

is a bit like evil magic entering his body and not being poisoned.

So hot! So hot!

Elder! Elder!

Where is the store's waiter?

Hurry and ask him where the source of the town's medicinal springs.

Okay. I'll go.

Older Bro Fei! There is trouble! Hurry and come help out!

Let's go.

Hurry and go!

A Ji Ya!

Bai Ze!

A Ji Ya!! What are you doing?!

A Ji Ya!

A Ji Ya, it's me!

I am Bai Ze!

Get lost!

Hurry and come with me!

Hurry. Hurry.

Hurry and go!

Go!

After them!

Hurry! After them!

A Ji Ya.

Let go!

I have to kill him.

A Ji Ya, you stole our Magic Star and our Star Chart,

and even tricked our feelings,

what really is your reason?

In your heart, what are we?!

What do all the things we went through mean?!

A Ji Ya, were you not telling us something?

If it's that way, since everyone is here today,

just tell it to us clearly.

There's nothing to say to you all.

Towards you all, I have irreconcilable hatred.

A distinguished scholar...

Too bad, you are a villain clothed as a gentleman.

Stop spouting nonsense.

You aren't something good, either.

Why are you afraid of him?

A Ji Ya, since you already know your unfortunate real identity,

then why don't you tell them?

In the past, the Heaven Strategy Envoys

were decreed by the Emperor to steal the Magic Star from King Salin.

King Salin also died due to it.

If that's not irreconcilable hatred, what is it?

I am going to kill you all!

What imperial decree?

What death of King Salin?

What are you saying?

What he said is true.

In the annals of the Heaven Strategy, I've seen that file.

In it, there were recordings of that day's mission.

A Ji Ya, sorry.

Bai Ze, don't say some sorry for now.

What really is going on?

Could it be that my Royal Father...

really have anything to do with the death of A Ji Ya's family?

Aren't the Heaven Strategy Envoys revered heroes?

Everything that they said were true.

A Ji Ya.

These are all matters that happened in the 15th year of Emperor Cheng.

Maybe it was Heaven's arrangement.

Can you forgive all these?

Dream on.

A Ji Ya, for these matters, give us some time

to talk about it with you amicably.

Don't let these matters destroy our relationship.

Those friendships that you are talking are just fake.

Stop looking for excuses to get yourself out of this.

You all are my enemies.

A Ji Ya...

Good. Good. Good.

Such a good scene indeed.

Looks like Heaven Strategy Envoys' duty of guarding the Magic Stars was indeed passed down to their descendants.

Then may I ask you all to come with me

and return to the Illuminati to tell the story of the Magic Stars to Elder Zhao Ran.

Take them down!

Who dares?! They are my men!

Go. Go.

- Bai Ze! - Hurry and go!

What are you still waiting for?

Chase!

A Ji Ya

You won't let me kill him. What's the point of me coming here?

He will die sooner or later.

But it's not up to you.

You must come because you have to bring back the young child to Elder Zhao Ran

to prove that you didn't betray the Illuminati.

You are still submitting to the glorious ideals of the Illuminati.

Of course, if you can say the whereabouts of the Magic Star, that would be better.

The Magic Star isn't with me.

Gong Zi Xu said that it's with Elder Jiong Ye.

Let's go.

Go! Move!

Timing and Subtitles brought to you by The Magic Stars Team @ Viki.com

Hurry!

Hurry! Let's hide here. Hurry!

Hurry up.

Hurry! Hurry!

Let's go. Hurry and go.

I won't go anymore. I can't walk anymore.

No. We must go.

I am in pain...

Zi Su, check his pulses.

It's okay. It's okay.

How is it?

This state of an illness is changing too fast.

Old man, you must not die.

Zi Su, hurry and think of a way.

Okay. Don't panic.

I'll think of a way.

- I want to go to the back of the mountain. - What?

If I go there, it won't hurt anymore.

- It won't hurt anymore if we go to the back of the mountain? - Right.

Then what do we do?

Are you sure?

I'm swearing by the buns,

that if we go to the back of the mountain, it won't hurt anymore.

Let's hurry and go to the back of the mountain.

- Go to the back of the mountain. - Go.

Let's go.

Let go of me! Let go of me! Let go of me!

Let go of me! Let go of me!

Bai Ze.

This place looks so high-level.

Are we really unable to go out this time?

Hurry and think of a way.

- Come. Come over here. - Lady Boss.

- Throw this dirty water out. - Come.

Lady Boss, what's going on?

He was already injured like that and you were still able to save him, weren't you?

He is quite fortunate

to meet an imperial doctor.

His life is indeed saved

but his face...I'm afraid won't be saved.

You already haven't slept for a whole day.

Come over and wash your face.

Here.

We've finally past the most critical time.

But why did he commit suicide?

He used to be living well. But now having a face of the Emperor,

right now, he can't be seen anywhere.

I think...he must not like...to be...

living like that anymore.

Lady Boss!

Yes. Coming!

I'll go outside for a while.

- Lady Boss! Hurry and come down! - What is it?

There is a letter here.

What could that be?

It wouldn't be that the bandits have gathered again to rob our town, right?

If that's the case,

does he need to inform you beforehand and isn't afraid you'll run away?

Then what do the drawings on there mean?

Right now...I know where I'll be going.

Xiong Fei, how are we going to the back of the mountain?

It's impossible to enter through the front gate.

Let's take the smaller road.

I am an Elder. How can I take the small road? I want to walk through the large road.

Hey...

Don't you want to go to the back of the mountain anymore?

- Want to go. - If you want to go, then listen to me.

Let's take the smaller road.

Let's go. Go.

Old man, to accompany you to the back of the mountain, we can be said to have climbed mountains and walked through water.

You must give us that little golden star.

Fine. Fine.

Really...

Rabbit! Rabbit! Hurry and help me save it!

Hurry! Rabbit...

Let's go, go, go.

- Hurry. - Slower.

Old man, what are you doing?

- Hurry. Hurry. Think of a way. Hurry and save the rabbit. - Lower down your voice.

- Put more energy on it. - How can this hit it?

Where did you get that slingshot?

Hurry. Hurry. There. There.

No. Give that to me.

Hurry! Hurry! Hurry!

- So great! - Okay already. Lower down your voice.

Let's go...

The little rabbit is hurt.

The little rabbit is so pitiful.

So grave.

What to do? What should we do?

See if there's some cloth to wrap it a little bit.

Right. Hurry. Hurry.

I have.

- Tear it. Tear it. - Here, Zi Su. - Come.

It looks so painful.

One more.

So pitiful.

- Look how pitiful this rabbit is. - Old man, we've already saved the rabbit.

You should go with us now, right?

Enough already.

- Let's go. Let's go. - Let's go.

Let's go now.

Reporting to Elder, our Red Clothed Army saw Elder Jiong Ye earlier going to the restricted area.

We dare not make any rash moves.

May Elder tell us what to do.

Restricted area?

Why must he go to the restricted area?

Go to the restricted area

and find Elder Jiong Ye back.

If needed, you can do some extreme methods.

Yes.

Informing Elder, the people have been locked up.

If you want to see them, I can arrange for it right away.

Where is the Magic Star?

In the tea house and inn, in all their luggage, I've already searched all of it.

No trace at all.

Then nothing to rush about.

Bai Ze and Elder Jiong Ye are all suspicious.

None of them can escape.

But I am worried that...

Say it.

A Ji Ya, this time, wanted to kill the people inside the prison cell.

I am afraid that she might kill them to eliminate any witness.

What you mean is...

to let Gong Zi Xu hold back A Ji Ya.

But Gong Zi Xu right now seems to have some discontentment already.

All of this are not worthy to be feared.

Right now, he has no right to talk me about conditions.

Only by following my conditions,

can he continue having an ignoble existence here.

Triple Illumination God blessed my Illuminati

to last for thousands of years.

Right now, we are experiencing never before seen setbacks.

We are only left with Guangming Town.

When I was still a measly Red Clothed Soldier,

there were once only five people left in the Illuminati.

The Illuminati right now is a product of us five people trying hard to revive it

for it to have its glory today!

Too bad...

My two junior apprentices back then have died successively.

Eldest Elder Chang Ming has been in seclusion for so many years.

There are no means of communicating with him.

Even my smallest buddy, Jiong Ye,

developed a weird illness.

Elder, we can all see your hard work.

Every year during the offering ceremony for the Three Gods in the Three Sacred Palaces,

I would make an oath

to all of you!

I will lead Illuminati

to retake the mortal world that has been sinned and tainted by the secular world.

I'm going to make the creed of the Guangming Three Gods

be everyone's supreme faith!

- Hey, wait for us, old man. - Hurry! Hurry!

I feel so great!

What place is this?

Back of the mountain.

So this is the back of the mountain?

Right. So many fun things.

What is fun in this place?

Look. There. There's even a hot spring.

So many fun things.

Woah! Zi Su, let me get you one.

How come there are so many butterflies?

Icy Fire Spring?

So this fluorescent butterfly are from the Icy Fire Spring.

Don't touch it! Don't touch it!

These butterflies must be poisonous.

Ha? How can butterflies have poison?

If I am right, these must be the Phoenix Fire Butterflies.

The dust in their wings will become lethal poisons when they touch hot water.

So it means they are fine right now.

Right. They are safe right now.

But...inside the medicine that Elder Zhao Ran gave old man, there seemed to be some of these powder.

It is used to hasten the poison.

Right now, these butterfly powders are falling into old man's body.

It can help him temporarily lessen the pain.

But just like poppy (opium),

it can help lessen it now but it will get worse in the future.

This is fun.

- Look. So many butterflies. - How come these butterflies are so crooked.

Do you still remember the medicinal spring that the owner of the Mountain Creek Inn said?

A bit.

The poison in these butterflies should be coming from there.

The butterflies get some spring water then flies.

Let's follow these butterflies and we might find the Icy Fire Spring.

Okay. Then let's go.

- Old man! - Old man, let's go!

- Let's go look for the Icy Fire Spring! - Let's go. Let's go. Stop playing already.

Let's go. Let's go.

- So many butterflies! So fun! - Let's go. Let's go.

Be good and just walk.

Wow!

- We are at the Icy Fire Spring. - So this is the Icy Fire Spring?

Is this still a medicinal spring?

That's right. This Icy Fire Spring is of the evil kind. It is warmed by the earth's fire.

Right now, it can be considered to be a poison spring.

Or else, there won't be so many Phoenix Fire Butterflies gathering here.

As for the medicinal springs down the mountain, only a few poison is in it.

That's why, it only has minimal effects.

Wow! This Icy Fire Spring is so powerful!

Where are you going?!

Be careful.

How come there is fog?

Who really are you people?

How dare you! You are in front of Elder Zhao Ran and you are still not bowing?

What an intelligent and quick-witted lady.

Compared to our disciple A Ji Ya, you are not inferior to her.

You are Elder Zhao Ran?

Yes, indeed.

We are Heaven Strategy Envoys.

We are people of the government.

If you know what's good for you, tell your men to hurry and leave.

Still using the 'government' thing to scare people.

Let me ask you. How many people in this world can really scare with that?

For our grudges with the Heaven Strategy Envoys and the Emperor,

we will deal with those in the future.

Right now, I just want to ask you two, where have you hidden Elder Jiong Ye?

I must take him back to take his medicine.

Only an idiot will hand him over to you.

If old man goes back with you, he might be poisoned to death already.

Stop pretending to be a good person!

Don't think that I don't know.

It was you who was poisoning Elder Jiong Ye that's why his illness is getting worse and worse!

Preposterous!

I think that you must have done some evil deeds that you want to cover up.

Don't get fooled by this yellow-haired monster.

He is not some good person.

I think...you two must have misunderstood me.

That's right. It was me who was giving Elder Jiong Ye medicine.

Although I hate him, he can't die.

Before, he must not die.

If he dies,

the Illuminati will also get disbanded.

Right now, the more he can't die.

If he dies, how can I find the thing that I wanted?

Right now, you also can't die.

You and your friends all can't die.

I will spare your lives.

Become my lackeys

and help me find the remaining magic stars.

Elder...next time...you better get out of the house during noon instead.

Why?

Because...sooner or later (literally morning and evening), you will get retributions.

Take them!

Xiong Fei...

Go!

This...

- Hurry and go! - Hurry!

Go!

Hurry up!

Zi Su, hurry!

Hurry! Hurry! Go!

Hurry!

Good thing they weren't able to chase us.

Xiong Fei, if we want to save Elder Jiong Ye,

we must find the Icy Fire Spring first

and then...must risk great danger,

before we can save him.

But we still have to save him.

Elder. Elder. Do you know where the Icy Fire Spring is?

Icy Fire Spring?

I won't go.

I want to go home.

Old man, we risked our lives to save you.

Can you be more obedient and responsible?

- That's right. - What's good to go home to in that house of yours?

Let me warn you.

You can't say that my secret chamber is a rotten place.

That is my home.

Hey! Old man!

Let's go.

Ending in prison because of one's friend, it's a first time.

Wrong. Wrong. If I say it like that, Bai Ze will get angry at me.

A Ji Ya is even their leader here.

No. I still will get scolded.

Ah...

Are you hungry?

A Ji Ya?

A Ji Ya.

A Ji Ya, listen to me.

Say it.

Actually, that time...

Hey, A Ji Ya.

Our fathers are all dead.

Can't we just let these grudges end here?

We've been through so many sufferings and happiness.

Do you bear to just abandon all these?

I just want to know what is written on the secret files.

On the 17th year of Xuan Cheng,

in the night of mid-autumn, for the Emperor,

get the magic star.

Salin King died because of this.

He has one descendant that survived.

The main merit for this belongs to Bai De Ming. He is awarded the Mytical Dragon Medal.

A Ji Ya! Don't be rash!

Move out!
