[Mirror : A Tale of Twin Cities]

[Episode 24]

The people of Qing Clan doesn't know me.

They said I'm a demon spirit

and does't allow me to return to Jiuyi Palace.

I have been roaming in this mountain.

For the decade, are you saying

you have been living here as bird spirts?

Are you doubting us?

Lin'er, he's not.

Su Mo doesn't mean this.

He's merely curious.

This decade,

in this decade,

I have been living neither as a ghost or human. Are you happy now?

Lin'er.

We won't ask any further.

It's my fault.

I didn't look for you.

Older Sister, I'm not afraid.

Although from the start,

there were strange noises in this mountain,

but I'm used to them now. I'm not afraid.

I always fantasize

being like a sword like you traveling till the end of the world.

It's just that, it has been a decade.

Why didn't you come here to look for me?

You didn't come here to workship Royal Father too.

Because,

I'm felt ashamed to face our ancestors

and Royal Father too.

Hence, I dared not come here.

I'm sorry.

Blame it all on Su Mo.

A decade ago, you caused my older sister to jump down from Mirror Pagoda.

You are still harrassing her now. What exactly do you want?

Lin'er.

Bai Ying,

I will wait ahead for you.

Lin'er, Su Mo is not harrassing me.

We formed an alliance with Quanxian to complete an important task.

What does he want that he insists on following you?

We are going to the Mourning Monument to obtain the Heaven-defying Sword.

Heaven-defying Sword?

To oppose Cangliu

and let everyone live under the sun again.

If you want to go to the Mourning Momument, you must bypass the Valley of the Deceased Emperor.

You took the wrong way.

That's right. We kept getting lost in the forest.

How do we get out?

Older Sister, I will take you there.

I have been living here for a long time. I know the way.

Really?

Jiuyi Mountain is very dangerous. You can't simply wander anywhere.

There are many Tu Luos who wil harm you. It's very dangerous.

Older Sister, it wasn't easy to find and reunite with you.

I really can't lose you again.

Kongsang is really very poor.

The Royal Palace is so simple.

It used to be very wealthy.

Qing Clan was retained by Cangliu.

However, as the offspring of previous nobility, it's hard to escape living in poverty.

He deserved it. Who told him to betray Emperor Qing.

Please wait here. I will notify the Emperor of Jiuyi.

Thank you for your trouble.

Be careful.

Lin'er, wait here for me for a moment.

Be careful.

Su Mo,

Lin'er said she's very familiar with this place.

Hence, she's leading us out from this forest

to the Valley of the Deceased Emperor. Can we take her along with us?

Of course. It has been a long time since you both met.

I believe you want to spend more time with her too.

It's just that, she seems to be hiding something from us.

When Qing Chen was mentioned,

her eyes flickered.

Be careful.

Perhaps, seeing that you were by our side, she couldn't speak directly.

Although Lin'er is rather stubborn

but she's a kind and adorable girl.

If it weren't due to the decade,

perhaps, Lin'er would still be the carefree princess of Kongsang.

I'm apologizing on her behalf.

Please don't blame her.

Of course, I won't. She's your younger sister.

It's a great comfort to you that she survived.

I could have imagined too much.

Thank you for your understanding.

Older Sister, what did you say to him? He was so close to you.

Everyone, this is His Majesty, the Emperor of Jiuyi.

Emperor of Jiuyi.

Although my title is the Emperor of Jiuyi,

in fact, I'm just a person who guards the tomb.

I wonder

why you are here.

We are here to worship the ancestors

and also to understand the situation of Jiuyi at the same time.

What's wrong?

I didn't imagine that,

in my lifetime,

I could still see the people of Kongsang outside Jiuyi.

What a great honor.

What a great honor.

Please take a seat.

The Great Hall is so dark.

A decade ago, the barrier of Jiuyi changed.

The people of Qing Clan couldn't leave the mountain.

Trading was reduced with the surrounding towns.

Some supplies were insufficient.

Jiuyi Palace could only save on whatever it could.

Miss Li Zhu,

I have never heard of any changes to the barrier in Jiuyi.

I wonder when it changed.

A decade ago, a mystery man from Cangliu

changed the barrier of Jiuyi.

He said it's to protect us in a nice sounding manner.

In fact, it's no different from imprisonment.

Also, the Qing Clan of Jiuyi Mountain

suffered the punishments of our ancestors too.

From what I know, other than the Qing Clan of Jiuyi Mountain,

and after Cangliu dominated Yunhuang,

the people of Kongsang outside Mirror City

either escaped death or live with concealed identities.

Are you both from the Central Plains?

Yes. We are from there.

We are here to worship the ancestors

and seek blessings.

Worship the ancestors? If you are here for this,

I fear you have taken the wrong path.

The deceased Emperor of Kongsang is at Right Peak.

Rightly so.

We are here to seek blessings from Heavenly Emperor.

How absurd.

The mausoleum of Heavenly Emperor is not for the people of Kongsang Clan.

to enter and leave as they please.

Look at how Kongsang has changed.

Looking at the entire kingdom,

I'm also the only one who has the rights to do so,

What do you mean by this?

I'm Zhen Lan, the Crown Prince of Kongsang.

A decade ago, Crown Prince Zhen Lan

died uner the hands of Cangliu.

If he's alive,

this is currently the kingdom of Cangliu.

I'm ashamed to say

I was really incompetent

to have my heavenly power sealed by Cangliu.

However, now that the seal has been removed,

I have awakened.

In order to let my people of Kongsang see the sun again, this is my purpose here.

Here.

The decree of the Crown Prince is here.

Take a look.

I have eyes but failed to recognize you.

Greetings, Crown Prince.

This thing really works.

Greetings, Crown Prince.

Emperor Qing Jun, please rise.

Crown Prince is back.

There's hope in glory for Jiuyi.

Whatever instuctions you have,

I won't give up until death.

There's no need to give up until death.

I know very well the

circumstances of Qing Clan in Cangliu.

I won't give you a hard time.

You only need to take me to the mausoleum of Heavenly Emperor.

Naturally, I will take you there

but I have another request.

Please ask.

For Kongsang Clan to see the sun again,

Your Highness, please

let everyone in Qing Clan

leave Jiuyi.

Qing Chen betrayed Kongsan.

For a decade, my Qing Clan

was cursed and punished by Kongsang.

Many offsprings

died prematurely

in violent deaths.

I'm willing to be punished

but those children were innocent.

That's right.

If there comes a day when Kongsang can see the sun again,

Qing Clan must have made their contriubutions too.

I believe we will be free too.

Thank you, Crown Prince.

Be careful.

Be careful.

What is he walking so fast for?

Su Mo.

Once you called him, he heard you.

Sister, Su Mo must have either an ulterior motive or a plot.

He doesn't.

I don't believe that.

Sister, why do you still trust Su Mo so much?

Because of him, you broke the seal and got humiliated by hundreds of officials.

That had nothing to do with him. It was my fault.

Sister, you're kind-hearted. He comes from a humble background and doesn't deserve you.

Alright. Lin'er, stop it.

I said nothing wrong. Let's stop talking about it.

My leg's injured. I can't walk and need to take a break.

Let's take a break then. Is there anything to drink here?

Are you thirsty? I'm not telling you.

Your sister hasn't drunk water for a while.

Really?

You... You go dig that out.

That thing.

You asked me but don't believe me. When my sister's thirsty, you don't dig it out.

How's your wound?

I'm fine.

You're just as reckless as you always were. You're covered in sweat.

Lin'er, you've suffered a lot.

- Sister.
- Silly girl.

I thought about you all the time and even dreamed of you looking for me.

But it's great now. A dream come true.

- Let's–
- Here.

Try it.

You haven't drunk water for a while either. Go ahead.

I just did.

Thank you.

If he wants to eat, he can dig again. There's plenty over there.

Sister, go ahead and eat.

Eat one. Go ahead.

Keep heading that way and we'll arrive in Deceased Emperor Valley soon.

Let's go.

Just a moment.

How do you feel? Does it hurt?

No.

Don't need to keep it from me.

It's just that we're getting close to Deceased Emperor Valley and the barrier here is getting stronger.

Let me help you.

I'm fine.

Sister, let's go.

General, you'll reach Deceased Emperor Valley after entering the stone gate in the cave.

You can go back now.

Yes.

[Deceased Emperor Valley]

Lord, I have one more question to ask.

Go ahead.

Will the formation be more powerful if we use spirits?

If we use spirits for the formation,

it'll be a fatal one for sure.

But

using spirits for the formation will consume more energy of the person

and be more dangerous.

If I can defeat Su Mo, I'm willing to give it a try.

[Tianxiang Tavern]

Lady Tian Xiang, General of Cangliu, Fei Lian,

will soon go to Jiuyi Mountain to catch Young Master, Prince of Kongsang and so on.

He's brought Master Lang's token with him, which allows him to mobilize the troops of Banbu City.

I hope you can inform Young Master somehow so that he can prepare for it.

From Xiang.

Sir, your food is here.

Please come in.

Sir,

we prepared the food specially for you.

May I ask if you like it?

I should pour the wine for you.

Sir, why are you so courteous?

Sir,

what's most famous about our Tianxiang Tavern

is me.

No, thanks.

Sir, I'm sorry. I'm very clumsy.

Sir, please forgive me. I'm truly sorry.

That's fine. You can go now.

I'm truly sorry, sir.

I'll go... prepare a bath for you

and help you clean up.

- Lady, it's me.
- Yan Xi?

It's you? You scared me!

Greetings, Lady Tian Xiang.

Actually we haven't seen each other for over twenty years.

Why are you still delicate?

You still like to make fun of me.

Now General of Cangliu is mobilizing troops

in order to block all the exits of Jiuyi Mountain

and catch them all.

I'm already trying to stall him, but I can't stall him for long.

We have to come up with other ways

to protect Young Master.

He has a Jialing token from Master Lang,

which allows him to mobilize all the troops in Banbu City.

If he doesn't have the token,

does it mean he won't be able to mobilize troops?

I saw Fei Lian

leave his token hanging at the waist. We can do this.

Lady,

you've come and gone several times.

I said you don't need to serve me.

I said you don't need to serve me.

Get me a Chinese honey locust.

You're not the lady.

Miss, men and women should keep their distance. Please let go now.

Miss.

Miss, I don't know what the lady told you.

But I didn't know she had this thought.

Miss. Miss, I'm General of Cangliu.

Even though numerous women have thrown themselves at me,

I don't intend to have a concubine. I'll only marry the woman I love.

Miss. Miss, please give up on me.

Miss.

I'm sorry.

Hold on.

- Please wait for me here.
- Why?

I'll go over there and take a look.

I've promised her that I won't heal with Mirror's technique,

but it consumes a lot of power for her to use Dendrobium porphyrochilum.

Lin'er, take a break here. I'll check on Su Mo.

Sister, you care so much about Su Mo.

Are you happier with Su Mo? What about me?

Lin'er, I'll get you out of here. Instead of being bird spirits,

we'll be Princesses of Kongsang. Okay?

Sister, I also want to be with you forever.

What if I don't want to leave Jiuyi Mountain?

Are you willing to stay here with me?

Lin'er, I inherited the power of the earth a hundred years ago,

but it's still difficult for me to resist Cangliu.

Now as Prince Bai of Kongsang,

I have to spend the rest of my life making up for the mistake I made back then.

What mistake did you make?

It was Su Mo who made the mistake. He's bad.

Lin'er, it was all my fault.

I want to make it up to you. I'm sorry.

I didn't keep looking for you.

Back then I thought you were dead,

so we missed a hundred years.

I promise you that I'll be with you forever.

Which of us is more important, Su Mo or me?

Wait for me here. I'll be right back.

Sister!

I already know the answer.

Su Mo.

I don't know if anything will go wrong.

I put a spell on this thing.

Try to tap it three times.

That's what you meant by tapping it three times.

Are you using Mirror's technique again?

Didn't you promise me you wouldn't use Mirror's technique again?

Why don't you take care of your body?

I... I didn't mean to use Mirror's technique.

You could've let me help you.

It consumes your power to use Dendrobium porphyrochilum. Jiuyi Mountain is full of dangers.

I don't want you to use more power on me.

In your heart,

do you feel that I'm unable to help you at all?

Of course not.

I promise to listen to you in the future.

I don't want you to be injured.

I know.

We are those who display false courage

but you are still one who doesn't keep his promises.

By the way, you will appear in front of me when I knock three times?

If there's a long distance, it may takes some time.

What about knocking four times?

- Knocking four times?
- If it's different for four knockings,

the conveyance is different.

If this is the case, wouldn't it be more convenient for us to communicate?

How will you do it?

I haven't figured it out yet.

Tell me when you are done.

Let's go back. Lin'er should be anxiously waiting for us.

Alright.

Lin'er.

Older Sister.

- What's wrong with you?
- I thought you didn't want me again.

It wasn't easy for me to reunite with you again.

Impossible. How can I not want you?

Older Sister, I have thought it through.

I'm willing to leave with you. I don't want to be a bird spirit.

I still want to be a princess of Kongsang. I still want to be your younger sister.

But...

where is our Kongsang?

Sorry, Lin'er. I shouldn't have left you alone here.

Older Sister, the Mourning Monument is ahead.

It's after the Valley of the Deceased Emperor.

Can you go with me to worship Royal Father? I miss him very much.

Why must we go with you?

Perhaps, after sucking the evil spirits of Jiuyi Mountain,

and becoming the bird spirit, I will hear lots of loud wailings once I'm in there.

I will be in pain.

Older Sister, it seems like I have been punished by the ancestors.

They don't recognize me anymore.

I can't enter the Valley of the Deceased Emperor again.

Why didn't you tell me about this previously? What should we do now?

I'm used to it.

Bai Ying,

let's go.

Let's go, Older Sister.

We will go back to Quanxian camp after getting the Heaven-defying Sword.

I will ask Ming Huo if there's any way to remove the curse of the bird spirit.

Alright.

Valley of the Deceased Emperor is the most powerful place in Jiuyi

and also the place where your magic power is the weakest.

You must be careful.

Let's go.

Hurry up, Older Sister.

- Let me take a....
- Na Sheng.

What's wrong? I'm just taking a look.

This lamp seems to be worth a fortune.

Your Highness, this Perch Star lamp can illuminate the mausoleum of Heavenly Emperor.

Let Li Zhu

- take you there to pay homage.
- Yes.

Hold on.

Aren't you coming with us?

I'm old and my legs are weak.

I don't want to create problems for you.

Alright then.

We will have to trouble Miss Li Zhu then.

Return it to her.

This is really pretty. Here.

What's more with this lamp?

It became prettier. Come, let me look at it again.

[Perch Star Lamp]

Why did it extinguish again?

I'm the only who can light this.

This lamp was originally in the royal bedchamber of Heavenly Emperor

and an ordinary copper lamp on his writing desk.

It accompanied Heavenly Emperor of Kongsang

when he reviewed countless memorials.

It has witnessed many trials and tribulations.

Please follow me.

When will Qing Yuan arrive?

Qing Yuan must avoid sunlight during the day. There's no hurry.

Let's go there now.

Miss Li Zhu,

did you grow up in Jiuyi Mountain?

Yes.

Have you ever thought of leaving this place one day?

A beautiful woman like you

is wasting the prine of your life in the mausoelum and tunnerls.

Isn't it a pity?

I haven't never seen the world outside Jiuyi Mountain.

Older Sister Li Zhu, leave with us after we have obtained the item.

The world outside

should be beautiful.

It's a pity I have a mission and

can't decide on whether to stay or leave.

What's the mission?

Your Highness,

I...I don't have freedom.

My ancestors have been guarding the tombs of the royal family of Kongsang for generations.

We drafted a spell contract with Kongsang clan.

I can only be liberated with their consent and leave Jiuyi Mountain.

I have always wanted to ask you

if are a merperson.

I'm definitely a descendant of Quanxian.

Who can give you the consent to leave?

This way, please.

Please be careful.

Be careful.

Na Sheng, stay close to me.

There's a narrow road in there. Be careful.

Be careful.

Uncle Si Jing, support me.

Are you fine?

I'm fine.

I'm fine.

This is the Valley of the Deceased Emperor.

Royal Father is buried here.

We will pass a stone door by entering here. Keep walking straight

and it will be the tombstone of Royal Father.

- Let's go.
- Older Sister,

tell Royal Father on my behalf

that I miss him very much.

Bedchamber of Madam Chi, Princess Zhu Yan.

Crown Prince and Priest Shiying's mausoleum.

I didn't expect

I could actually see you here.

Su Mo, do you know Zhu Yan?

She's one of my older sisters.

When Su Nuo and I first met her two decades ago,

She was a princess of the Shi clan in Kongsang.

Help me!

Starting from today, follow me.

Older Sister, A'Nuo...

What's wrong? Don't panic. Take your time to speak.

- A'Nuo is injured. Save him now.
- Where is he? Take me there.

It's my fault.

When that big red bird was biting,

if A'Nuo didn't push me aside,

he wouldn't have been bitten.

It's my fault.

The big red bird that you mentioned, does it has nine heads?

And wings on each head, right?

Yes. When it flew towards me, seems like it wanted to eat me.

Older Sister Zhu Yan, why is A'Nuo still unconscious?

A child that's injured by an ancient spirit beast

can't be saved.

How can this be?

A'Nuo won't die.

Older Sister Zhu Yan, save him now.

The magic power of the superior ancient beast is too strong.

My magic power can't make him arise from death.

I don't believe it.

A'Nuo won't die.

When we just got here,

Su Nuo has already stopped breathing.

Su Nuo...

He passed away a decade ago.

I gave him his name.

When we first met Zhu Yan,

we didn't had any names.

Seeing that A'Nuo was very tanned,

she name him Little Blackie.

But I wanted to call him A'Nuo

because he's my lifelong promise of commitment to my mother.

A pity that I still broke the promise.

You were too young then.

Many things are beyond your control.

I really hate this

kind of feeling.

Don't blame yourself.

By the way, did Zhu Yan

teach you the spells of Kongsang?

Although it was a game to humor a kid

but it was also considered a skill to make a living.

I also relied on it

to make a living.

[Tombstone of Heavenly Emperor]

Bai Ying is not filial

and ashamed of Royal Father's trust in me. I'm here to plead guilty.
