What does that mean?

The beasts in the Fairyland

will be snakes.

Qian’er,

why don’t you

give up this exam?

Even you dare to go.

What...

What should I be afraid of?

You’re afraid of snakes, my dear.

You can’t even walk

when you see snakes.

Besides, I’m prepared this time.

What is it?

It’s something that repels snakes.

Something that repels snakes?

Let me have a look.

Don’t worry.

I’ll protect you.

Take care of yourself first.

Alright.

Go in the transmitting circle, please.

You used your whip just in time.

If it hadn’t been for you,

I guess

we wouldn’t have passed the snakes trap.

Stop it.

Didn’t you see that

I was protecting myself?

Don’t worry.

I’ll go ahead.

If there’s danger, I’ll run into it first.

Can you stop saying things like that?

It’s like we’re forcing you to run into danger.

I don’t want you to get hurt.

I mean,

if you’re hurt,

you can’t protect us then, can you?

Don’t worry.

I won’t be hurt.

Miss Luo Li is also here.

Miss Luo Li,

listen,

you don’t have to stare at me.

We’re in the Fairyland.

I can’t escape even if I want to.

Don’t be fierce.

The blood of beasts.

Use it to protect yourself.

Those snakes love its smell the most.

You know that.

Use it to protect myself?

You want to kill me, don’t you?

That depends on where you scatter it.

Liu Mubai,

where are you taking us?

There are many magic plants ahead.

I want to see if there’s something that repels snakes.

Be patient.

Can’t you find it and take it back?

Don’t make us run after you.

We’re not far from the den of

Python Tunshan now.

It’s dangerous here,

so I can’t let you wait for me here.

Yes. Yes. Yes.

We’ve got to follow him.

Only then can we...

be safe.

I can’t walk anymore.

Let’s take a break here.

Mu Chen.

Give it to Qian’er.

You’re so considerate, Mubai.

How do you know I’m thirsty?

I’ll check if there are more fruits ahead.

I think he’s quite nice.

What has it got to do

with you whether he’s nice?

I know what you’re thinking about.

Although he seems

unconcerned,

he’s absolutely different from his dad.

He’s a gentleman.

I just don’t like that.

He’s always preaching at me.

He’s so nice to me

because we’re engaged

and he must be like that.

The Great Ruler

Episode 2

I’ve waited for four hours.

Where’s Mo?

You’ve waited for such a long time.

Why don’t you wait a little longer?

Are you Xue Shi of Xue God Clan?

What can I do for you?

President,

I’ll come straight to the point.

We suspect that the fiancee of our chief, Luo Li,

is hiding at Beiling School.

I hope you’ll give her back to us.

If you think it’s troublesome,

I can do it myself.

That’s weird.

Beiling School

is always a place for humans to practice magic power.

Dude,

when have we

offered to hide someone?

President,

our clans never

interfere in one another’s affairs.

It’s our internal affair.

You’d better not meddle in it.

You’re right.

It’s your internal affair.

Of course we shouldn’t meddle in it.

But if

it concerns

the teachers and students of Beiling School,

that will be my business,

right?

You mean you won’t give her to us?

I want to

but I can’t.

President,

as you said just now,

your duty is to protect

the safety of your teachers and students.

But now you’re going to

sacrifice all of them just because of her.

Is it worth it?

Are you threatening us?

Absolutely not.

I’m just advising you to

think twice about it.

I will

be off.

Check this out.

What is it?

It’s a tooth of some beast.

It’s so big.

Can it be the tooth of a snake?

Qian’er,

take them back.

I’ll check places around again.

See?

He’s doing it again.

He cares about you.

Do you want him to hit you and scold you every day?

Qian’er,

watch out!

My goodness,

there are so many snakes here.

They’re hard to deal with.

Be careful.

Stay close to each other.

Are they all running away?

Yes, they are.

Great.

Looks like we’re safe now.

Generally speaking,

these snakes won’t stop chasing their prey.

Why did they retreat today?

Have...

Have I been sitting on its back just now?

I told you

they wouldn’t run away so easily.

Turns out their ancestor is here.

[Python Tunshan]

It’s Python Tunshan.

It ranks the eighty-sixth on the Record of Beasts.

Oh, no.

We’re doomed to death.

Mubai,

wait.

Mu Chen.

Let me handle it this time.

The boss of snakes!

Mu Chen!

Python Tunshan,

come over here!

Mu Chen,

you can’t kill it by yourself.

Are you OK?

Python Tunshan,

chase me!

Python Tunshan,

chase me.

Come and catch me.

Come. Come.

Come and catch me.

Python Tunshan,

why...

why did you keep chasing me?

I’ve given you half of the blood

and my clothes.

Can’t you...

Can’t you change your target?

Never mind.

Swallow me if you like.

Mu Chen.

Luo...

Luo Li?

My coin.

Your coin?

Can’t you say something else?

You saved me just now.

By right,

my life is yours.

But I really didn’t

take your coin.

I never lie

and heaven can prove it.

If you don’t believe me,

just take my life.

Without it,

I can’t find Jiuyou Bird.

Jiuyou Bird.

Is it that magic beast?

Luo Li,

although I have no idea

where that bird is.

But now that I lost

your coin,

I’ll definitely find it for you.

You can’t.

If I can’t find it here,

we’ll search Beiling School.

If we can’t find it there,

we’ll search the Five Sets.

If we still can’t find it,

I’ll search the whole world with you.

I will find it.

Are you OK?

Yes.

Only my clothes were torn.

How about Qian’er and Mubai?

Are they OK?

They’re behind us.

It’s a good thing they’re OK.

Miss Luo Li,

you were really amazing just now.

You were simply a goddess coming down to earth.

I’ve never seen anyone

doing things like that.

Why don’t you

accept me as your student?

I don’t have a teacher, anyway.

I will study hard.

No.

I don’t teach.

Mo,

what does Xue God Clan plague Luo Li for?

You didn’t know.

The deities’ marriages are different from those of humans.

They’ll combine the couple’s blood.

Luo Li has the purest blood of Luo God Clan.

Certainly Xue God Clan will plague her.

Of course

it’s also possible that

Xue Lingzi is in love with her.

Now no one at the school

knows who Luo Li is.

That doesn’t matter.

But I worry they will

harm other students on the sly.

I’m afraid

Luo Li can’t stay here any longer.

But if she’s not here,

we won’t be able to protect her.

How about sending her to Nine Territories?

Nine Territories?

I only trust Mu Feng in Nine Territories.

We can send Luo Li

to his place.

But...

What are you worried about?

It’s all because of

that brat, Mu Chen.

He’s the naughtiest at Beiling School.

If we send her to the Mu Territory,

won’t we make trouble for Mu Feng?

But except that,

there’s nothing we can do.

Fine.

I’ll go and tell Mu Feng.

We’ll send Luo Li there.

OK.

Tear mine.

Alright,

don’t be so talkative.

Take your hand off.

You look

beautiful in this dress.

It’s dirty.

How can I look beautiful?

OK.

How are you feeling now?

We’ve got to look for Mu Chen and Luo Li now.

How are you?

I’m OK.

Fine.

I’ll hold you.

Tianling Lotus.

It’s the plant Mubai talked about.

It’s empty.

There’s a cave ahead.

Let’s go in.

There’s no smell of blood here.

We should be safe here.

Are you OK?

Yes.

Who killed the python?

Who else can it be?

It can’t be me, anyway.

Luo Li,

you killed Python Tunshan by yourself?

Have you reached the Deity Level?

Mubai,

leave that boss of snakes.

Look at this.

Why would this happen?

Its exterior is intact

but it’s empty

without any power

and breaks once being touched.

This place is full of magic power

and nourishes so many plants.

It shouldn’t like this.

It’s not a part of the exam, is it?

Of course not.

These plants are even more valuable than me.

How could they possibly damage so many of them?

It’s not empty.

That’s to say

only plants that have magic power

are affected.

This is Python Tunshan’s den.

I never hear it has this kind of ability.

Who can it be, then?

Don’t you want to know

what absorbed

the power of these plants?

Their power is weak.

We can’t find that out.

What do we do?

I have an idea.

But there’s no way I can do it alone.

You want me to help you?

Except me, you’re the only person

who can use magic circles here.

What circle is this?

It’s a Power-detecting Circle.

I read it on an old book that

it can detect movements of magic power,

but few people know

its efficacy.

And it’s extremely complicated.

How did you learn it?

I don’t have magic power

so I could only work on something else.

Otherwise,

how can I deal with your cousin and the others?

Come on.

He remembered it because

he bunked off and was asked to

draw it too many times.

I just found that

you started to be partial to Mubai.

I...

OK.

I’ll try.

Can you do it or not?

It’s indeed a bit complicated.

I’ll try again.

OK.

They’re going that way.

The Lake of Dragon?

Isn’t it the place where that auspicious eye is?

It’s also the Black Dragon’s dwelling.

He has always been respected by us.

He’s respected by us.

That doesn’t mean he’s a good man.

Dad,

I have told you.

[Ten years ago]

[Young Mu Chen]

I saw the Black Dragon fighting the White Dragon.

The White Dragon said

the Black Dragon killed many innocent people.

Thank you.

You should have found it.

The power of the Lake of Dragon

isn’t from heaven and earth.

There’s plenty of power now.

If he just wants to gather it,

he doesn’t need to ruin living things at all.

This is an important matter.

Let’s go home now and tell our fathers.

We’re not bunking off, are we?

Of course not.

We have to go at once.

We?

Where are you going?

I’ll go back to the Mu Territory with you

and tell Mr. Mu.

My dad believes you, anyway.

What about us?

You and Luo Li will go back and tell Mr. Mo and the others.

What are you doing?

I want to show it to my dad.

Mu Chen saw the power of all these plants

moving to the Lake of Dragon

with a Power-detecting Circle.

So we guess

the abundant power around that Lake

is possibly from other places.

If it goes on like this,

the whole Beiling will be affected.

I’m afraid what I saw ten years ago is going to come true.

Are you sure you saw the power

moving to the Lake of Dragon?

Yes, I am.

We all saw it.

Wait.

What did you see ten years ago?

Ten years ago,

I saw the Black Dragon

hurt the White Dragon

in the Dragon Palace.

The Black Dragon is wicked.

The thing he’s guarding

mustn’t be something good.

It concerns an old legend.

It’s normal that you didn’t think of it.

Have you heard of a ballad?

When the nine eyes gather,

the Evil Deity will appear.

Do you mean

the eye in the Lake is the Evil Deity’s eye?

At first,

I was just guessing.

You’ve already seen

the mighty force of the eye in the Lake.

[Lake of Dragon]

Though I have bounded the center of the circle,

more protection is needed.

Sir,

there’s something I don’t know if I should say.

Go on, please.

Our magic power all comes from heaven and earth.

We feel the magic air,

take it in

and turn it into magic power.

Humans,

deities and dragons

all do it like that.

Although the eye in the Lake

has tremendous power,

we have no idea

where it comes from

and whether it’ll really benefit us.

In that case,

why don’t you give it a try?

OK.

Are you still in any doubt?

Everyone,

please go to the Dragon Palace with me.

Considering what’s going on,

I’m afraid I was right.

Please make an alliance with the Liu Territory

to deal with this disaster.

I want to.

But there’s deep enmity between me and your dad.

I’m afraid he’ll refuse.

You should put aside personal hatred

in front of crises.

I will try to dissolve it

to the best of my ability.

Mubai,

I trust you.

But will your dad

believe you?

Stop it.

The alliance between the Liu and Mu territories

is the best solution now.

Although there’s little hope,

I’m willing to fight hard.

Mubai,

let’s go to the Liu Territory right now.

OK.

Dad,

Mr. Liu is especially wary of you.

Let me go instead.

I’m eloquent.

Chen,

go back to Beiling School.

The Black Dragon has numerous informants.

We mustn’t give this matter away

and we need to do things in secret.

Besides, if you and Mubai are out too long,

you’ll definitely arouse suspicions.

Mubai,

I have to disguise myself

before we go.

Mubai,

you’ll ensure my dad’s safety, then.

Safety first.

Don’t worry.

[Liu Territory]

[Liu Qingtain, Ruler of Liu Territory]

Father.

Mubai,

why are you back?

I brought a guest for you.

Mr. Liu,

ever since we parted by the Lake of Dragon,

we haven’t seen each other for ten years.

As I said just now,

[Ten years ago]

this place needs protection.

Which one of you is interested?

As you’ve seen just now,

the power in the Lake is surging.

The circle beside the lake

is set for its protector.

If you practice in it,

it’ll do you lots of good.

Sir,

I’m willing to undertake the task.

Good.

You are indeed a smart man.

Does anyone have a problem with it?

The Mu Territory

is willing to guard the Lake of Dragon, too.

The Lake of Dragon absorbs power.

Mr. Mu,

have you gone gaga?

Did you forget ten years ago,

you and I competed for it?

Father,

I saw a magic plant

becoming smoke in my hand.

Mubai,

you’re too kind

and easily made use of.

It’s natural that plants wither.

Even if their power is absorbed,

that’s because they’re dead

and then the Lake of Dragon

absorbs the residual power.

Isn’t that reasonable?

Mr. Liu,

have you considered the reason

why the Black Dragon shared with us

when he had always despised humans?

Even if he really wanted to benefit mankind,

why did he bound it

and behave so sneakily?

I know there are frictions between us.

But this time

the safety of the whole Beiling is at stake.

When the skin is gone,

what can the hair attach itself to?

At that time, what’s the point of

the struggle between us?

What are you going to do, then?

We can’t go to war over this matter.

We need to keep it secret

and find out whether the eye in the Lake of Dragon

is absorbing power

from us and those plants.

If as you said,

the power in Beiling is being exhausted,

what should we do?

We’ll join forces

to destroy it.

Mr. Mu,

don’t underestimate that Black Dragon.

You think the two of us

can defeat him?

Don’t worry, Mr. Liu.

I can handle him.

Are you telling the truth?

I’m not holding it back deliberately.

It’s not completed yet.

Over the last ten years, we’ve been

doing it for this disaster.

On no account

will I trifle with lives of people in Beiling.

You’re accomplished at circles.

OK.

In that case,

I agree.

Let’s meet

by the Lake of Dragon.

Goodbye.

See you.

Father,

you put your enmity aside for the whole situation.

I deeply admire you.

Mubai,

I hope you will

focus on your study

and stay out of things like this.

You’re the young master of the Liu Territory

and you’ll be its ruler in the future.

What’s the most important to you

is to protect the safety and interest of the Liu territory

instead of the whole Beiling.

Understand?

Father.

Alright.

Go back to Beiling School.

We’ll talk another time.

Go.

Ten years.

You prepared for so many years.

Is it really for the Lake of Dragon

instead of the Liu Territory?

A magic circle.

I don’t have magic power,

so I’ve got to

study hard on something else.

Any news

on those magic plants?

Not yet.

But now that he wants to absorb all of the power,

we’ll just need to protect it.

Will that work?

There are countless magic circles in the world.

Now that there’s a way to suck away the power,

I believe

there’s also a way to protect it.

You don’t have magic power.

Good.

Isn’t that too hurtful?

You’re a good person.

What did you say?

Say it again.

Are you praising me?

That’s quite surprising.

The Lake of Dragon

shouldn’t have been like that.

Things there are not clear yet.

Have you been to the Lake of Dragon?

I’ve been there

long ago.

This matter is not only the business of the Dragon Palace.

That place gathers power several times

as much as the Power-gathering Circle of Beiling School

so it’s a good place for people to practice in.

We’re just guessing that

it absorbs power.

You mustn’t tell anyone.

Power-gathering Circle?

You don’t know what it is?

A Power-gathering Circle

is the commonest magic circle.

People will practice magic power in

Power-gathering Circles if they can.

Because the effect will multiply there.

You still don’t get it?

How about this?

I’ll take you to

the Power-gathering Circle early in the morning.

That’s settled, then?

Qian’er,

what are you doing here?

Can’t I read books here as well?

Is your wound OK now?

Yes.

By the way,

I want to give this to you.

What is it?

It’s for your self-protection.

From now on,

you don’t have to be afraid of snakes.

No.

Can you stop giving me anything?

You don’t have that gift.

Actually I also have something for you.

Take your hand off.

You did it yourself?

How could I do it myself?

It’s made by those workers at my house.

I’ll accept it.

Save the snake repellent for yourself.

I’ve got you.

What do I need it for?

Have you decided which sect you’re going to?

I’m in the Rotating Level now

so probably I’ll go to Sky Sect

or Sage Sect.

Oh, yes.

I hear you haven’t decided yet.

You’re the best of Beiling School.

What are you hesitate about?

You’re certain to go to North Sect, aren’t you?

I don’t want to go there.

If you don’t go there,

where do you want to go?

I haven’t decided yet.

I will be

where you are.

What...

What has that got to do with you?

I’ll go to Phoenix Sect.

How can you go with me, then?

That’s alright.

The Five Sects are so close to each other.

I can go to

see you every day.

Where are you going?

I’m going to practice in the Power-gathering Circle.

[Power-gathering Circle]

Wake up.

Can I help you?

You don’t have magic power

and you slept here.

You’re really a good-for-nothing.

Liu Yang,

don’t go too far.

Mu Chen,

I have no right to interfere

whether you sleep or practice.

But you took seats for two.

Aren’t you wasting our resources?

Can you vacate one for us?

Liu Mubai,

this seat is taken today.

Find somewhere else for yourselves.

Luo Li,

come here quickly.

I came before 5 a.m.

to take a good seat for you.

Is this the place where you practice?

They practice here.

I don’t have magic power

so

I can only watch.
