[Mirror: A Tale of Twin Cities]

[Episode 26]

Your Highness, please rest assured.

We... are on the same path.

There's one more thing, Your Highness.

When I entered Jiuyi, I could feel shaking at the bottom of the mountain.

A white light pierced the sky at the top of Left Peak.

In that case, we must hurry to find Heavenly King's tomb.

Miss Li Zhu, please lead the way.

General.

I wonder what Lord Qing Jun wants to discuss with me.

The Sky Opening Sword has been pulled up.

General, have you caught them already?

They haven't left the Jiuyi Mountain yet, we still have an opportunity.

I will do my best to cooperate with you.

There is one thing I like to clear with you.

When I was at Mourning Monument,

I discovered a Spirit Mirror Stage in there.

There's a barrier, right?

That's right. Only descendants of the Kongsang Royal family

can touch the barrier. Anyone else who touches it

will suffer severe harm by the barrier.

Only Kongsang's royal family can touch.

Then if it's like so,

How did Su Mo pull out the Sky Opening Sword? Did Bai Ying pull it out?

They say the Sky Opening Sword is made from the dragon deity's fang.

Su Mo has obtained it. The both of them are holding it now.

I'm afraid it would be even harder to get it.

Don't worry about this Elder, I will get it sooner or later.

But there's one thing. I only saw Su Mo and Bai Ying.

Zhen Lan, the Kongsang Crown Prince,

does your lordship know his whereabouts?

I have not received any news about the Kongsang remnants.

But I noticed recent marks of Kongsang outside the palace.

What... What mark?

Don't pretend. I already know you met with someone of Kongsang.

General, you accuse me wrongly.

I am loyal to Cangliu.

After you came, I've transfered all the troops in the city under your command

- to help you capture—
- No more pretending, Lord Qing Jun.

Is a half-baked crown prince like Zhen Lan worth your effort to conceal for him?

Did you ever thought

he is only using you to find the Six Directions Seal?

Once the mission is accomplished,

do you think he will give the throne of Prince Qing

to you, who pledged allegiance to Cangliu a hundred years ago?

Or, to give it to the young and devoted

Qing Yuan who has saved Kongsang lives?

I know that you waited for that throne a long time.

So how much longer do you want to wait?

That Qing Yuan

is really young.

I've ruled Jiuyi for many years, and the people live in peace and comfort

with a prosperous life.

Am I not suited to become king of Jiuyi?

- I cannot accept.
- That's why I have an idea

that can help you secure the King of Jiuyi's throne.

Please guide me, General.

This pathway will lead to the royal tomb.

Will there be more traps in this pathway?

Since Your Highness the Crown Prince doesn't trust me, I'm willing to go first to show my sincerity.

Once I pass through it safely, you can follow.

They you won't be in danger yourself?

Judging from Miss Li Zhu's movements just now, you must have studied martial arts from childhood.

Just simple fighting skills for self defense.

I am a guide, so this is what I should do

and will hope to remove doubts from Your Highness.

Careful everyone.

There is a trap here. Everyone, avoid the bricks with patterns under your feet.

Patterns?

This has no patterns. Let me see.

Probably only the Seven Star Lamp can show the patterns.

Li Zhu and I will go in front. Everyone else follow my footsteps.

Wherever I step, that's where you step.

Stay close to me.

Alright.

Careful.

What if it's weak water?

It's just regular water.

You definitely blocked it for me because of this water.

Don't do that again.

I'm going to have look ahead.

We're here.

[Life Death Pavilion]

It's here.

Is this weak water?

It is.

- Na Sheng.
- It's hot.

Be careful. Don't be rash.

You won't be able to see Yan Xi again if you are not careful.

Don't touch anything at random.

This weak water is very deep. The evil aura of Yunhuang is in here.

If you fall, there is probably no chance at all to survive.

There is a mechanism here.

We can't come out!

What's happening?

Miss Li Zhu!

Your Highness Zhen Lan, I am sorry.

Tell me. What is this place?

Why did you lead us here? Where exactly is Heavenly King's tomb?

Sorry, Your Highness Zhen Lan.

However, this is indeed the only path to go to Heavenly King's tomb.

[Life and Death Pavilion]

We used to send many people to try

to enter Heavenly King's tomb through the Life Death Pavilion.

Unfortunately, none ever came back.

Qing Yuan, what is the meaning of the Life Death Pavilion?

Excuse me, Your Highness. Even though I am from the Qing Clan, but I'm from a side branch.

The secret passages of the mausoleum of the Heavenly Emperor of Jiuyi,

only the princes through the generations knew the secrets.

I ascended the throne in such a rush

and haven't never seen the ascencion book of the princes of Qing.

It's not your fault. You accepted the command in a time of crisis.

Tell me, why did you do what you did?

I'm sorry, but I can't tell you.

So this was a trap from the beginning?

Yes.

Teasure thieves, how dare you barge into Queen Bai Wei's cenotaph!

I was at Queen Bai Wei's cenotaph on purpose.

I waited for everyone to drive and gained your trust.

Are there any other ways out?

I really don't know other exits. Lord Xi Jing, even if you kill me now,

you can't go back anymore.

You can only keep going forward.

You're lying to us.

She must be in some trouble and can't get rid of it.

Even if she is, she's still a liar.

She trapped us all in here. We can't find a way out.

Li Zhu, you wanted to use us to figure out how to get to Heavenly King's tomb.

But why were you certain that we would definitely get in?

If we got killed by the traps, you wouldn't be able to go back.

Isn't your stake inaccurate?

Since I'm with you all, I'm already ready to die.

If... If we really can't find a way out,

I'll accept my fate.

You're very... Forget it. I don't know what to say about you.

Alright. In this case, let me see

what makes Life and Death Pavilion powerful.

Your Highness the Prince,

are you sure you want to keep going forward?

Now that we can't back off,

why not keep going, see how it goes

and defeat whatever we encounter?

Na Sheng, follow me.

Why did it turn into this?

Uncle, we're not in danger, are we?

We're fine.

There's a barrier here. We can't get out.

It looks like the pavilion is our only way.

Let's take a look.

Xi Jing, thanks to you.

[Life and Death Pavilion]

Water and Sky for Life.

There are signs every day.

I didn't expect the barrier to be so powerful.

I can't even see the path we took.

What exactly is this?

Na Sheng, don't touch it.

The arrows are heading that way.

But what's over there?

- Are you okay?
- I'm fine.

Watch out!

The arrows are here again. Can we go back?

We can't keep standing like this.

Brother Prince, you're amazing.

Qingyuan, find the openings for the mechanisim.

Now I want you to tell me everything, including your next steps,

who they are and why they are attacking us.

If those people successfully come to Life and Death Pavilion,

that should be... them.

Are you saying it's A'Ying?

Is that Sister Bai Ying?

A'Ying! Is that you?

It's His Highness the Prince.

Your Highness, I'm Bai Ying. Su Mo and I are at the pavilion.

How are things over there?

We don't have arrows shooting towards us anymore.

There's a thing at the pavilion that can shoot arrows.

Same here.

So we were fighting Brother Ice Cube and Sister Bai Ying.

Fortunately, you didn't make a huge mistake.

Yes, it was my fault.

It's so foggy here that they must want us to attack each other.

The traps here are designed for people to attack each other.

It's so foggy that we can't see the entire pavilion.

If we hit the traps by accident, it'll be more dangerous.

If the fog could go away, it'd be great.

The weak water here is too strong. The wind of the lightsaber is unable to remove the thick fog.

This thick fog is created from the vapors of the weak water.

I'm afraid only powerful techniques can make the fog go away.

Let me try.

With all the fog here, we can't find a way out.

We're stuck at the pavilion. If we stay longer,

there's no telling what kind of danger we'll be in.

The fog here is the blocked killing intent.

We have to come up with a way to make it go away.

Another stronger killing intent?

- Your Highness.
- Brother Prince, are you okay?

I'm fine. No, I'm too weak.

I can't get rid of all this fog.

The fog has gone away.

Thank you all.

Thank you.

I'm sorry.

What happened?

Na Sheng hit the trap by accident, some stone dropped,

and Li Zhu fell. But fortunately, she's fine.

A'Ying, you both have finally come.

After getting Sky Opening Sword, we found a passage.

We followed the passage and got here.

Your Highness, how did you all get here?

A long story. I made a mistake and got us all in danger.

Li Zhu, since we just saved you,

can you tell us

why you led me here?

You're a Merperson, right?

No wonder you're the Emperor of the Sea. You can see through me right away.

I'm a Merperson.

In addition, I am from Kongsang's Qing Clan.

Did you know our identities from the beginning?

Yes. Once you went to the mountain,

we knew everything.

Who else?

Since you acknowledge me as the Emperor of the Sea,

tell me everything you know.

Miss Li Zhu, what exactly is this pavilion?

This is the first time I've seen this Life Death Pavilion.

I really don't know what it's about.

As I said already just now,

this is the only path toward Heavenly King's tomb.

Therefore, the two doors across from us

are the entrance toward Heavenly King's tomb?

It is indeed this way. Life Death Pavilion, one life and death.

You die, I live. You live, I die.

That's right.

Ever since the start, you knew that we would come up from both sides

to open Heavenly King's tomb for you.

But, has no one entered it in the past?

No. We dispatched people to try many times.

- They all failed.
- Why?

Because the people in both pavilions wanted to live.

So, to live,

they have to attack the people in the other pavilion.

Yes.

Then, no one can live if an exit can't be found.

Didn't those path explorers die for nothing then?

That's right. They simply died.

So cruel.

One always has to pay a price to reach one's goal.

Why don't you do it then?

I?

How do you know that I haven't paid a price?

Li Zhu.

You know what I want.

After you've killed him,

you'll get your freedom.

But he's been hiding in Heavenly King's tomb.

All these years, haven't you been trying

to enter Heavenly King's tomb through the Life Death Pavilion?

And we've never succeeded.

We didn't succeed,

but it doesn't mean others won't.

Emperor of the Sea Su Mo and Kongsang's Crown Prince Zhen Lan

will soon come to Jiuyi to obtain the Sky Opening Sword

and to unseal the Six Directions Seal.

This is a great oopportunity.

What do you need me to do?

I want you to guide them the way

and lead them to the Life Death Pavilion

to take them to Heavenly King's tomb.

I want you to use the mechanism in the Seven Star Lamp.

Will you do it?

We will set up a blood pact

If I reneg, I will die.

Of course, if you reneg, you will die.

Once it's accomplished, please fulfill your promise

to return freedom to me.

Good.

It's a deal.

Miss Li Zhu, what are you thinking about?

Prince Qing Jun told me to lead you to the Life Death Pavilion.

Using your hands to open the entrance to Heavenly King's tomb.

Why do you have to enter Heavenly King's tomb?

Maybe Prince Qing Jun has always been bothered that he isn't the real King of Jiuyi

and cannot obtain the secrets in Heavenly King's tomb.

If it's only because of Prince Qing Jun's insistence,

then, Miss Li Zhu, you are paying too high a price.

- This Seven Star Lamp—
- Your Highness the Crown Prince,

it is my own choosing.

He promised me that he'll give me freedom after I've completed the mission and let me go home.

Alright then. Since it's own choosing, I won't make it difficult for you.

Once I return to Yunhuang, I will lead everyone home.

Li Zhu, don't be controlled by Qing Jun anymore.

But, Emperor of the Sea,

I met you too late.

Even in the moment right before now, when you hadn't entered the Life Death Pavilion,

perhaps there was room to change everything.

But now, you are already inside the pavilion,

there is not turning back.

Besides, I already made a pact with Qing Jun.

So what? Just go back on your words.

Quanxuan always stay true to promises. Once a pact is made, we never break it.

Have you discovered something strange around us?

The weak water is rising.

The water level is getting higher and higher.

Its temperature is increasing too.

We must hurry to find a way to get out.

That smoke is...

The Sky Opening Sword is taken out.

All the layers of mechanisms in the Jiuyi Mountain will be activated.

Everywhere they go, if they touch a mechanism,

five-colored smoke will be released to report on their location.

Just follow the smoke to find them.

Very good. Where are they now?

Life Death Pavilion.

The Emperor of the Sea and Kongsang's Crown Prince are both very fierce.

To capture them, I still need to make preparations.

I will help you, General, to capture the remnants of the traitorous Kongsang-Sea Nation Allialnce.

Gather all the troops. Let the first and second units

separately guard all the entrances on the east and west sides of the Jiuyi Royal Palace.

All the entrances must be sealed and no one is allowed to escape.

General, are you sure they will survive

and walk out of Heavenly King's tomb?

Whether it's the Emperor of the Sea or Kongsang's Crown Prince, neither one is easy to deal with.

Not to mention that they have two of Kongsang's Holy Sword masters next to them.

So we must seal off all the exits

so that we have the chance to capture them all at once.

General, you are wise.

The third unit will go up the mountain with me

and be ready to fight anytime. Once it's accomplished,

you will be the real King of Jiuyi.

Good luck, Junior General.

Gather the troops now. We don't have much time left.

Yes.

I really am General Fei Lian.

Master Lang ordered me to come and assist Yu Huan.

I need half the troops in Banbu City.

You don't carry any credentials to prove your identity.

Are you new? Tell your commander to come. He recognizes me.

I only acknowledge the command tally.

If you continue to fuss, don't blame me for being impolite.

What are you looking at?

Su Mo, what are you doing?

Even though Life Death Pavilion is either life or death,

but at least it gives each other a way to live.

That's right.

I'll stay.

I am alone, witihout any ties in life.

I am the most suitable person.

No, if we go, we'll go together.

It's enough that I've journeyed this far with all of you.

I was originally Kongsang's general and Kongsang's sharp blade.

I am willing to open the pathway for Your Highness.

You are talking nonsense.

You are my general, my senior, my friend.

I think of you as family.

But you want me to use you as a blade to open up a path?

Your Highness.

You are, above all, Kongsang's Crown Prince, before you are Zhen Lan.

Same with me. I am Kongsang's Crown Prince before I am Xi Jing.

Why should we let Kongsang see the sun again?

It's not for an empty symbol,

but for the 100,000 living souls.

Xi Jing, you are also a living soul.

So what I can't be.

Su Mo, I...

I disagree.

Why do you always want to sacrifice yourself to save the others?

Don't you know there are people who want you to live?

I want to live too.

But if my life can exchange for Na Sheng

and His HIghness' lives to bring hope to Kongsang,

to me, it's just dying once more.

It's just that, I feel

the only person that I'm apologetic to

is you.

What are you apoletic to me about?

I shouldn't drag you down.

Actually, I was already...

Already what?

Sorry.

I shouldn't be the one to decide life or death for the two of us.

Not until we get to the last moment,

don't give up the last hope. Alright?

Your Highness, all of you go first.

No! We will go together!

This is our only way out.

There must be another way.

This is not a trap, but a change.

We'll find a way out!

A'Ying!

Time's running out.

If we wait any longer, nobody will be able to get out.

Your Highness, don't forget

that you're responsible for 100,000 Kongsang people.

Then why...

A'Ying!

Use this Star of Ocean to see.

Star of Ocean?

This leave has a name?

Star of Ocean.

This is the only gift you gave me a hundred years ago.

I'll give you another gift.

- Are you afraid?
- I'm not.

You jumped from somewhere high a hundred years ago.

I couldn't do it with you.

This time I'm here.

I'm so weak

that I never

dared to tell you my true feeling.

What do you want to say again?

Something like who remembers or forgot it?

I don't want to hear it again.

If I don't say it now, I probably won't have another chance.

Do you know, at the miasma forest,

What did you say to me?

I said

I wanted to become a Holy Sword master helping people.

You said you would come with me

rather than meet him.

- Su Mo.
- Promise me

to always be honest

with me

if we survive this.

I promise

to always

be honest with you.

Say, "Everything will turn out as I wish."

Everything will turn out as I wish.

We'll survive this.

We'll... survive this.

We will definitely survive this.

Okay?

We will definitely...

survive this.

♫ All beginnings comes at the expense of having endings ♫

♫ I once walked over waves to borrow a bit of starlight ♫

♫ Yet, no matter what I do, I cannot see you clearly ♫

♫ I thought that closing my eyes would make my heart clear ♫

♫ Yet I'm just lost in a reverie ♫

- Let's go.

♫ However, love makes even breathing so difficult to do ♫

♫ So let love be silent ♫

♫ Help each other expand our horizons ♫

♫ Let the ocean breeze take my place ♫

Come on.

I'm not scared of you all.

What noise was that?

What?

Brother Prince, Sister Bai Ying and Brother Ice Cube fell.

Save them now.

- Prince.
- Hurry up and save them!

Oh, I have the Heavenly Ring.

We can use the Heavenly Ring and save Sister Bai Ying.

- Na Sheng.
- They're fine.

- Stop it.
- Why...

Why can't I save them?

What's going on?

- Na Sheng.
- Brother Prince, is this broken?

Why can't it be used?

- Why can't it save–
- Stop it!

If they're alive,

we should be looking for the seal

and then save them.

If they're already...

we should...

break the seal all the more.

And retrieve the Heaven-defying Sword

as they wished.

Your Highness, it looks like the entrance of Heavenly King's tomb.

Stop it.

Let's go.

[Banbu City – military camp]

Why are you here again?

[Command Token]

I failed to recognize you. General, please forgive me.

Cut the crap. Arrange a small troop and follow me to Jiuyi Mountain.

As for the rest, rush to the entrance of Jiuyi Mountain before sunset.

Yes, but the Commander...

You go ahead. Do I have to do it myself?

I'm pressed for time. If I can't complete the mission on time, I'll blame you.

I get it. I'll respond to the Commander immediately.

Luckily, I rushed here and he didn't see my token clearly.

General, this is a token I had a craftsman make.

Well,

With so little time, this is all we've got.

If you gave me more time, I could make it even more realistic for sure.

The real owner can't even differentiate this.

That's it. Good enough.

Na Sheng,

did the Heavenly Ring

do anything?

Na Sheng.

The Heavenly Ring seems to sense something.

It should be in there.

I've found it.

Why doesn't the door open? Is it a trap?

It doesn't look like a trap.

Why's that?

- I don't know.
- Is it blocked inside?

- Let me do it.
- Your Highness, let me do it.

This underpass does look strange.

How are you going to do it?

Xi Jing, since we got to Jiuyi Moutain,

you've been trying to stop me.

Look at you. You're ready to die anytime.

If you keep doing it, I'll be mad at you.

I don't want...

I don't want to see anyone leave me.
