(Immortal Samsara)

(Episode 5)

Please enjoy your meal.

Eat up.

Miss Yan, it's a shame that you're not a scammer with your acting skills.

I only used 30% of my power today.

I'll show you guys what I'm truly capable of in the future.

Everyone, eat up.

If it's not enough, I'll ask the kitchen

to prepare extra dishes for you guys.

I appreciate the kind intention.

However, we don't have much money on us.

You don't need to worry. Just have your fill.

Yu Mo is a loyal friend indeed.

I'm sure Tang Zhou

would be grateful to you if he knew

that you took care of his ex-sect members.

They're your friends.

Naturally, they're my friends too.

Eat up. I'll ask them to make you guys some soup.

What's with the cat spirit earlier?

Master Xie has a daughter he dotes on.

However, the cat spirit fell for his daughter.

He kept wreaking havoc in the Xie Residence.

And, he even wanted to force Miss Xie to be his wife.

Master Xie had no choice but to hire us to catch the cat spirit.

Actually, we've already set up the spirit-subduing circle.

The cat spirit wouldn't have escaped

if someone didn't alert them to our presence and ruin our plan.

Plan? What plan?

I prefer swift battles.

I don't like people telling me what to do on the sidelines.

That cat spirit is powerful.

We can only capture it if we stay united.

You always cling stubbornly to your own way.

Now, Lingxiao Sect's reputation has been ruined.

- I wonder who's the stubborn one? - You!

Tang Zhou.

Senior Tang.

Senior Tang, great timing.

You should help us catch the cat spirit.

If we fail to catch that cat spirit,

I'm afraid the Lingxiao Sect would be done for.

Senior Tang, you're witty and intelligent.

Right now, you're the only person who can help us out.

You may treat him as your senior,

but has he ever treated you as his junior?

He abandoned the sect because of love.

The Lingxiao Sect doesn't need his help.

He is right.

Tang Zhou is a heartless man.

We don't need your help, even if it means the sect will be done for.

Regarding the cat spirit,

I can't help you out.

Senior Tang!

People of different aspirations cannot get along together.

The first person who catches the cat spirit

will be the sect leader of Lingxiao Sect.

Someone might say that he doesn't care about the sect,

however, he still misses the sect.

Am I right?

You don't need to persuade me.

I'm no longer related to Lingxiao Sect.

The only bad thing about you

is your stubbornness.

You wouldn't stare at this sword in despair

if you truly didn't care about them.

Now, Lingxiao Sect lacks a leader.

Qin Qi and Dao Yuan have established their own rules.

They do not like each other.

Now, the entire sect is barely surviving.

They're barely making a living.

If this continues,

I'm afraid they'll have to sell the sect off.

Lingxiao Sect was your master's home.

It was once your home as well.

Could you bear to let it fall into ruins?

I know you feel guilty.

You think that your sect fell into ruins because of your departure.

But now, this isn't the time for you to feel guilty.

The tougher the situation is, the more you should

stand up and help your sect get through this ordeal.

Anyway, I've already promised that mister

that we'll catch the cat spirit in three days.

You can do as you see fit.

Don't tell me you can bear

to let the sect that you were once so proud of descend into ruins

and become a laughing stock?

My powers have vanished.

I'm afraid I'll embarrass the sect instead.

I understand your dilemma.

If you're willing,

I can teach you the Heavenly technique

so that you can restore your power and help your sect out.

Excellent!

Excellent!

Excellent!

Excellent!

Again!

Excellent!

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Get out of the way!

You guys are going overboard here.

- What are you guys up to? - What are we up to?

This is my territory.

Don't you think you should pay some protection fee?

This is a public area.

We will never let thugs like you have your way.

This girl is pretty sassy.

I like it.

Just you wait, little lass!

I'll settle my debts with you in the future!

It's Senior Tang.

Although he has lost his powers,

I could tell it was him from the way he projected his sword.

Once I subdue you,

no one will tease Lingxiao Sect again.

How dare you try to hurt me when you're this weak?

I wonder what the primordial spirit of a Taoist taste like?

If you're willing to kneel and kowtow to me three times,

I'll leave you with a complete body.

The disciples of Lingxiao Sect will never yield to evil!

Treading the path of righteousness, I do not fear death!

This is our sect's affair. What is an outsider like you doing here?

Are you tired of living?

Just go! Forget about me!

No matter what identity I assume,

I will never let evildoers have their way.

I'm doing so for the sake of righteousness.

You don't have any powers at all.

You're actually not a Taoist?

You're fearless indeed.

Fine.

I'll absorb both of your primordial spirits then!

Go back and tell Miss Xie

to wear a wedding gown and wait for me in her room.

I shall marry her by tomorrow noon!

Senior Tang, how did you two get hurt?

We tried to subdue the cat spirit just now.

But he has managed to escape again.

The cat spirit is powerful. I'm afraid he's not easily dealt with.

I knew you wouldn't leave us in the lurch.

Although First Senior was hurt by the cat spirit,

his body was protected by his powers.

He'll be fine after some rest.

Senior Tang, you've lost all your powers.

Your body will be damaged if you push yourself too hard.

Have a seat. I'll get some ointment for you.

No need for that.

It's just a scratch.

But...

It was my fault in the past.

I shouldn't be mean to you.

You've saved my life today.

Let's call off our feuds

and let bygones be bygones.

I've already

forgotten about the past.

Cang Hong was your master.

I'm sure you were heartbroken

when that incident happened.

I understand.

I knew you were pretty radical with your training.

However, you did not let down our sect

when it came to spirit catching.

I know

you follow the path of righteousness.

Even if I didn't want to disgrace the sect,

now,

it seems like it's too late.

Master Xie was right.

With my powers, I have no right to be a spirit catcher.

Not only could I not help you guys out,

but I also created trouble for you guys.

Maybe I should change my profession.

Don't you guys understand?

You guys couldn't catch spirits not because of your subpar abilities.

Everyone has their own expertise, and all of us should've been united.

However, you two established your own rules

and went against each other.

How could you succeed?

He was the one who acted arbitrarily

and chased us out of the sect.

I acted arbitrarily?

During the tiger spirit mission,

you guys ignored my order and tried to capture it in private.

In the end, the request giver was hurt.

If that's how you plan to do it, the sect will be done for.

If we allowed it to wreak havoc,

the tiger spirit could've wiped out the entire town in a single night.

I've already set up a magic circle at the back of the hill.

We could've captured it without any casualties

as long as you assisted me with your artifacts.

- You should've told me earlier. - You didn't ask.

- You! - The issue is resolved, right?

Why didn't you guys

tell each other what was on your mind?

It was obvious that you guys needed each other.

You are

not that powerful by yourself.

You need him to assist you in forming the magic circles.

You are bad with artifacts.

You'll face difficulties when you capture spirits without using them.

If this continues,

the reputation of Lingxiao Sect will be done for.

Don't you guys think you should put down your pride

to prevent that from happening?

- Tell her to do it first. - Tell him to do it first.

- Why are you copying me? - Why are you copying me?

You guys do have a certain level of chemistry.

Forget it. On account of Senior Tang,

as long as you stop acting arbitrarily,

I'm willing to lead our disciples together with you

and assist you with all I got.

As long as you stop acting on your own,

I will tell you everything.

I'm doing it on account of Tang Zhou.

Once a disciple of the sect,

always a family.

You guys should work together.

In the future,

I'm sure you two will lead Lingxiao Sect back to its glorious days.

The disciples of the sect revered you the most.

Once, I was jealous of you because of that.

However, when you risked your life to save me,

I finally understood why

they revered you.

You're the most outstanding spirit catcher we have.

You were also Master Tang Jiang's favorite disciple.

This jade gourd

belongs to you.

You can regain your power if you lose it.

However, winning the people's hearts

is a rare power.

You should return to the sect.

That's right, Senior Tang.

With you around, I'm sure the sect will be united.

You should return to being our sect leader.

That cat spirit will marry Miss Xie by force

by tomorrow noon.

I'll head back and come up with solutions.

This is...

I was just passing by.

I overheard your conversation.

I heard that you guys had reconciled with each other. Congratulations.

Congratulations, everyone.

Since you're already here,

why don't you use your intellect to help us out?

I do have an excellent plan.

However, someone might have to suffer a bit.

My dear, you've finally made up your mind?

How dare you trick me?

The cat spirit has been subdued. Come in.

Now that the cat spirit has been subdued,

the Xie Residence can live in peace now.

Miss Xie no longer needs to live in fear.

Now, I assume you believe in the power of Lingxiao Sect.

I was too anxious back then. I said something mean.

If I've offended you guys,

please don't take my words to heart.

Today, I've finally witnessed

the might and intellect of Lingxiao Sect.

You guys do live up to your names indeed.

Impressive!

Which shop did they buy this rouge from? It's so thick.

You do look pretty cute

with a red lip.

I think you're almost as pretty as Tao.

You look like a goddess.

Why the rush to wipe it off?

I wanted Yu Mo to see this.

It's all because of your stupid idea.

It's all because you wanted to protect your junior.

You were afraid that the powerful cat spirit might hurt her.

These lowly spirits would've been a piece of cake for me

if I didn't sacrifice my powers because of you.

Enough. You did torture me in the past too.

I didn't expect you to end up like this today.

Back then, you were pretty mean to me.

I still remember what you did to me.

I'm going to write down your story in "A Mortal's Life".

The Taoist, Tang Zhou,

was bullied by a cat at his lowest moments.

- What do you think? - It's pretty good.

What are you doing?

I'm letting you experience what it feels like to be the main lead again.

You crook, why did you trap me in your gourd again?

Who told you to tease me?

Why did you come inside as well?

Even if I was bullied, I wouldn't let you off.

Cut the crap. Release me immediately.

I can't. I'm stuck in the gourd too.

I can't open it.

You're truly despicable.

How did the inside of the gourd become like this?

I've been here so many times.

I've never seen such scenery before.

Wait.

I thought you'd lost your powers?

This is my artifact.

Naturally, it follows my will.

So, you've been shutting yourself in

for the past few days because you were training in secret?

How was it? The Heavenly technique I taught you was pretty good, right?

Now that you've pulled yourself together,

you look like the Taoist Tang I knew in the past.

It's been a long time since I had so much fun.

I think being stuck here

isn't that bad.

If we stay here forever,

we won't be able to locate the divine artifact

and heal the wound on your chest.

All of that is no longer important now.

(Yan Dan, )

(don't forget.)

(He's Sovereign Lord Ying Yuan, not Tang Zhou.)

(He's just going through his trial.)

(He'll return to the Nine Heavens eventually.)

Yu Mo?

Look at what you've done.

Luckily, we were in Yu Mo's room.

I'll see how you'll explain yourself

if this ends up in a woman's bathtub.

Did your wound reopen due to the cold?

My wound is fine.

But why were you two inside the gourd?

It's all because of that despicable person.

I assisted him in subduing the cat spirit.

But this guy burned the bridge immediately.

He trapped me inside the gourd for an entire day.

Such nonsense.

You did have fun when you were inside, didn't you?

Moreover, you teased me first.

Why are you complaining about me when you were at fault first?

It's because you trapped me in there.

I had no choice but to enjoy the circumstances.

Only by doing so will I make myself more comfortable.

Whatever you say.

You're just putting on a false front. You still can't let them go.

I know you too well.

Qin Qi and the rest will return to the sect tomorrow.

Are you sure you don't want to join them?

I thought leaving was the best choice.

I didn't expect it

to end up like this.

In the past, I didn't understand

what a person with great responsibilities felt.

But now, I understand.

By giving up on one's responsibilities,

many people will be hurt.

First Senior and Junior have already reconciled with each other.

Lingxiao Sect will get better gradually.

What about you?

Your entire sect is waiting for your return.

Since I've already chosen to leave,

I won't turn back.

You won't be able to deceive me.

I know you still miss your sect.

You were shunned by the sect leader

because you saved me.

That's why you left the sect.

However, Lingxiao Sect was established with a good goal in mind.

They punish the evil, praise the kind,

cast out the wicked, and cherish the virtuous.

Isn't that your goal in life?

Stop being disheartened.

You can have this Ruyi wine.

After drinking this,

you'll know what you desire.

I don't want you to regret your decision because of your impulse.

If you do care about your sect, you should return to the sect.

I've already forgiven you,

Ying Yuan.

(No matter if it's in the Heavenly Realm or the Mortal Realm, )

(Yan Dan's heart was shut because of Ying Yuan.)

(Now, it's opened because of Tang Zhou.)

(From the start until the end, it was none of my business.)

When mortals get married,

they love to wear fancy gowns that are vibrant in color.

However, the Demon Clan prefers black clothing.

It's more dignified.

The scenery created by the Moon In The Lake

is so beautiful

that I've never seen something like this in the Nine Heavens before.

No matter how excellent the scenery is,

it's inferior compared to the person in front of me.

The annihilation of the Demon Clan was related to me.

Have you truly made up your mind

to marry me?

The past is in the past.

I will cherish the person in front of me.

From now on,

I will only exist as the husband of Tao Zi Qi.

No matter if it's the Demon Clan or the title of the Demon King,

it has nothing to do with me.

My only wish

is to spend my life with my beloved.

There's only you and I for our wedding.

Do you think that this wedding is too shabby?

Although there are no blessings from our family and friends,

it's enough

with you by my side.

We once wanted the Three Realms to live in peace.

Now that everything

has settled down,

I will always stay by your side.

We shall explore the Four Seas together.

We shall witness the extraordinary scenery of this peaceful world together.

With Heaven and Earth, and the stars and moon as our witnesses,

from now on,

Liu Wei Yang will marry Tao Zi Qi.

They shall grow old together,

and never be separated.

No matter the seasons,

or the alignment of planets,

I'm willing to stay by you, my husband

and grow old together,

hand in hand.

Yan Dan.

If only time could stop

at this very moment.

Any time with you around

is a good time.

(Yan Dan, )

(you must be safe.)

(Actually, I've made my decision)

(when we were at the Moon In The Lake.)

(In my eyes and heart, )

(you're the only one for me.)

Tang Zhou.

You're awake?

Qin Qi and the rest are done packing.

They'll return to Lingxiao Sect soon.

Miss Yan,

thank you for your warm welcome.

However, the disciples of Lingxiao Sect do not sponge off others.

There's no need to be so courteous.

You took care of me when we were in the mountains.

Just take it.

Senior Tang,

are you sure you don't want to return with us?

I can rest at ease now

that First Senior is leading the sect.

Now,

I have more important things to do.

I also have someone I wish to protect.

We will respect your decision.

I bought some snacks for you guys.

You guys can have them on your travels. Here.

- Thanks. - Stay safe.

I'll visit you guys when I have the chance.

I'll bring Tang Zhou along.

All right.

By then, I'll surely treat you guys to a feast.

Farewell.

What's wrong with Zi Lin nowadays? He's been acting mysteriously.

I thought Mountain Chief said that Lingxiao Sect's issue was resolved?

That's right.

But he told me he went to buy some medicine as the spirits

captured by Lingxiao Sect were seriously wounded.

What's wrong?

The injured spirits

were healed a few days ago.

Could it be that he...

He...

Is he having an affair?

That's not what I mean.

Fine.

The Fox Clan is loyal.

If he dares to have an affair outside,

I'll end him myself.

- Zi Lin doesn't dare to do so. - This has nothing to do with you.

Bai Ling, thank you.

I'm done for.

I guess.

Zi Lin will end my life himself.

Mister, your liquor is pretty good.

- Come again then. - Of course.

Thanks, mister.

What are you doing here?

Little Tortoise,

you've been sneaking around

ever since you returned to the Mountain Realm.

You always went missing.

Didn't you tell me you went out to buy some medicine?

Do you buy medicine

in a liquor house?

- Let me see. - I...

- Actually, I... - Are you having an affair?

Look at all the liquor you bought.

Are you going to enjoy them together with the girls?

- I... - Lady,

you shouldn't be so fierce toward your husband.

- It's still daytime. - I...

He just came here to buy some liquor.

However, you slandered him for having an affair.

He'll divorce you if you keep being this paranoid.

Stupid liquor seller!

My wife's attitude toward me is none of your business.

Besides, my wife is gentle and beautiful.

At most, she can hate me.

It's impossible for me to divorce her.

- Don't be so nosy. - I've never seen a man like you.

You two are a match made in heaven indeed.

Tell me. What have you been doing for the past few days?

If you try to trick me with your fancy words

and have an affair outside,

I, Lin Lang, will never let you off.

Did you hear me?

I'm innocent.

Which heartless scum slandered me?

Actually, I've been buying gifts

for Father-in-law in the past few days.

Since we're already together,

I was planning to ask the Fox Clan for your hand.

I heard that the Fox Clan loved liquor.

Am I right?

I don't know what kind of liquor your father prefers.

That's why I bought some from the Mortal Realm.

Come, have a look.

The one in the first row is Zhuyeqing.

The one below it is Qiulubai, which is a decade old.

The small vat over there is Monkey Wine.

I've spent so much time looking for it. It's over six decades old.

I'm sure your father will like it.

Take a look.

So, you've prepared plenty of liquor for him, huh?

Little Tortoise, I'm sorry.

I actually doubted you.

I thought you...

Lin Lang,

your father had sent you 10 vats of 1,000-year Nverhong.

He said you could drink them for fun.

I've stored them in the wine cellar.

The Fox Clan is pretty wealthy, huh?

A 1,000-year liquor is actually what you drink for fun, huh?

If so, these liquors

must mean nothing to your father.

It doesn't matter. You've prepared so much for him.

I'm sure Father will like it. It's the thought that counts.

No way.

These are my betrothal gifts.

No, I must buy something else.

Little Tortoise, wait for me!
