=The Journey of Chongzi= (Adapted from "The Journey of Chongzi" by Shu Ke)

=Episode 13=

(Master must still be angry.)

The snake.

Master.

Master.

Wan Jie is gone.

It seems to want to follow you,

maybe it's because you have been together for sometime and it's attached to you.

So I went to the Land of Tribulations and brought it back to keep you company.

Master, did you do it for me?

I just think it might be detrimental to the Mortal World if it is left outside.

As long as it is educated properly, it can make up for Chu Bufu's mistakes.

I mean nothing else.

Master...

- Besides... - I...

It looks cute.

I have managed to remove its fangs.

After it stays in Nanhua for a while longer, its demon scent will naturally weaken.

Master, I got it.

Thank you.

(As expected, it makes Chong happy.)

It's been a while since I've been back to Zizhu Peak, and I miss the pastries in the Mortal World.

Go with me.

(Xichun Restaurant)

What's wrong?

Aren't these all your favorite?

I've been here before.

With whom?

Wan Jie?

You were really close.

In fact, compared to how nicely Uncle treated me, I was not nice to him.

I was wary of him being the Demon King and always accused him.

But then I figured it out.

He's still Chu Bufu who saved people from danger.

If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have met you.

You still remember me.

I thought that you only care about your uncle.

No, Master. You got me wrong.

Uncle Wan is important to me.

But he's family.

You are different.

What's the difference?

It's just different.

You are not only my master, but also the one I admire, trust and rely on the most.

You are the one who dotes on me the most and will never leave me no matter what I do.

I don't fully regard you as a master.

I...

(Master, you are also)

(the one I love most.)

For you, I...

I...

You love your master?

When I left my master, I realized that there was so much I didn't get to say to him.

Master, I...

Don't be thankful to me.

It is only natural for a master to care about his disciple.

Master, want more?

There is no wine in your cup from the beginning.

Waiter, one more bottle of wine.

Got it.

(We struggled for so long, but the Holy Sword was still taken back by Nanhua.)

Wan Jie was good for nothing.

He could not keep the sword at the cost of his life.

Everyone is unhappy because of that.

Demon King. What are we going to do?

Never mind.

Now that they took it away,

I can get it back.

Protector Yin.

Could you bear it?

Wan Jie ashamed us.

If I can't teach a lesson to those of the immortal sect, I can't bear it.

We're on the same page.

Tonight is the night.

Shall we?

Please.

- Demons are coming! - Demons are coming!

- Demons are coming! - Demons are coming!

You'd better leave us alone.

You demons slaughter the innocent and do harm to the Mortal World.

Nanhua's disciples should enforce justice on behalf of Heaven and fight till the end.

Do you know what is the Way of Heaven?

How dare you say so?

- Please forgive me for taking the liberty. - Please forgive me for taking the liberty.

You are Wang Yue, the Demon King?

If you can't answer my question, I will slaughter the whole city.

If you can't answer anything, I'll let the surrounding area be completely empty.

Can't you answer it?

You!

Humanity is the Way of Heaven.

Saving and helping people is Nanhua's...

Ridiculous.

Humanity is only part of the six worlds.

How dare you call it Heaven?

You are talking about saving and helping people.

But do you ever know who are you helping and saving?

Qin Ke.

You've done a good job.

Praising virtue and punishing vice is widely spread in the immortal sect.

But without evil, how can there be good?

It is easy for me to take your lives.

Go back and tell the immortal sect that I, Wang Yue,

will take down Nanhua and clean up the six worlds one day.

Stop.

A demon is the best at bewitching.

Don't listen to those nonsense.

What?

How dare he utter nonsense to attack Nanhua and clean up the six worlds?

Have all the wounded come back besides you?

They were all brought back, except those juniors and seniors who died tragically.

Master. I want to avenge them.

Go back to recuperate first.

Councilor and I will take care of the rest.

- Yes. - Yes.

Something's wrong.

If he wants to take down Nanhua and clean up the six worlds,

why should he do so

after losing the sword of Ni Lun?

Wang Yue

shouldn't be someone who gets carried away

by a momentary gain or loss.

What is he up to?

Right.

If Wang Yue really wants to clean up the six worlds,

he will not attack the mortals first,

let alone show up himself.

He must have other purposes.

How about calling Yinfan over to discuss about it?

Master, look.

What's this?

This is a temple fair,

full of things that people

have never eaten or played.

When I was young, I loved watching others go to temple fairs.

Why did you watch them

instead of going yourself?

I was a beggar at that time.

I couldn't afford anything.

It's good to be able to

be affected by others' happiness.

There are a lot of lanterns there.

Master, look.

Not me,

but us.

Follow me, don't get lost.

So nice.

It's strange, I remember that in previous years,

all the lanterns in the temple fair would be lit.

Why not this year?

The emperor is fighting in the north,

and we have handed over all the paraffin.

A lantern cannot be lit without paraffin.

So these lanterns

are just for decoration.

No lanterns, no atmosphere.

Master, sorry.

I took you here,

but we can't see the lit lanterns.

It's fine.

Not fine at all.

Follow me.

Master, it's really beautiful.

I'm glad you like it.

But...

Master, you did so much for me.

How can I pay you back?

You fool.

I never want you to pay me back.

No way.

Master, close your eyes.

Really?

One, two, three.

Open your eyes.

This is?

This is my gift for you.

I bought it secretly.

Although it is not a rare and precious jade,

I thought it matched you very much

the first time I saw it.

If it is inconvenient for you to wear it,

hang it in Chonghua Palace.

Anyway,

you can't throw it away,

and you can't dislike it.

Are you satisfied now?

It's just that... I have another thing.

Master, I know that

other masters will not use spells casually

just to please their disciples.

I also know that

other disciples will not casually

give such personal things to their masters.

So

we are different.

Master,

I...

Something's up in Nanhua.

I am coming back.

First things first.

Leave me alone.

I will follow you up.

Then take care.

(What happened?)

(Would it have to do with the demon sword?)

Demon sword...

Six-world Monument...

Yinfan.

What happened?

Today, the demons aggressively invaded the Mortal World

and injured many Nanhua disciples.

Even the Demon King Wang Yue showed up.

Wang Yue?

The Demon King Wang Yue after Ni Lun?

He's different from Ni Lun,

always keeping a low profile.

Before, only Wan Jie was making trouble among the demons,

and it was rare to hear of Wang Yue's whereabouts.

I don't know his origin.

Now that he's popping up,

we suspect he's going to make a big move.

Invading the Mortal World is probably just a pretense.

Yes, he is unpredictable

and difficult to deal with.

What I am most afraid of is that

he wants to make a diversion

before the demon sword is purified,

and come to Nanhua to steal it

when we are unprepared.

Yinfan.

You have to speed up

the purification of the demon sword.

Greetings to Senior.

What's up?

I'd like to check the sword of Ni Lun.

Councilor is afraid that

the disciples will be affected by the demon scent on the sword,

so the disciples are not allowed to go up alone.

The sword is brought back by me,

and I can resist the demon scent.

Take care then.

If anything happens to it,

let me know as soon as possible.

Thank you, Senior.

The demon sword is fine.

Uncle, can you hear me?

Look, I came with your friend.

Uncle, don't be so fierce.

Master has pulled out its fangs.

In the future, it will be the spirit snake

on Zizhu Peak.

Uncle, I listened to you, returned to Nanhua,

and made up with Master.

Although I don't know

what Master thinks of me,

I want to be brave for him once,

and not to leave any regrets.

Am I right, Uncle?

Flash if I'm right.

If not,

also flash.

From now on, I will keep you company every day.

That way, you won't be alone.

Master, are you also here to see him?

Go back first. I'll reinforce the shield.

In the past few days, Yu Du and I searched through ancient books,

trying to find a way to separate the sword and soul.

Yet we failed.

The demons are taking actions.

We cannot wait any longer.

But letting you disappear into ashes

is something I never want to see.

I dare not even

tell Chong the truth.

If

it really comes to the day when I have no other way out,

will you blame me?

Chong, are you asleep?

Chong, are you asleep?

I...

I am practicing spells.

Master, let me check

if you are wearing it.

I dare not take it off for a moment.

I came here to tell you

not to go to the Six-world Monument

these days.

Did something happen to the sword of Ni Lun?

In recent days, the heads and elders of other sects

are coming to Nanhua.

I'm afraid you won't be able to handle them

when you meet them alone.

Just stay on Zizhu Peak.

Lion and the spirit snake will keep you company.

Okay, as you said, I will stay on Zizhu Peak.

When it's all over,

tell me what you didn't finish last time.

(Does Master mean that we are feeling the same?)

(For Qin Ke)

This was sent by your mother to the foot of Nanhua Mountain.

She asked you to open it yourself.

There must be something urgent.

Qin Ke. Since you went to the immortal sect,

you haven't heard about family affairs for a long time.

I don't intend to disturb your peace of cultivation.

However, your uncle was convicted and demoted.

Your father decided to go north to eliminate the rebellious officials.

I wish you could come to help.

I am begging you.

Did something happen at home?

My father decided to eliminate the rebellious officials and go north to make himself king

by taking advantage of my uncle's conviction.

My mother wanted me to go back and help my father.

This is your family business. I am not in a position to comment.

But you are determined to cultivate immortal bones,

if you interfere in the affairs of the Mortal World, you are going to change God's will.

I got it. Master and the sages taught me spells

by no means to let me deal with power struggles in the Mortal World.

It's just that my father is getting old.

If I don't go back this time, I'm afraid...

Never mind.

Think about it before making a decision.

Qin Ke.

I haven't seen you for a long time.

This snake is...

It is the spirit snake brought to me by Master.

It should be a demon snake.

Why did your master bring this to you?

Don't worry. Its fangs have been pulled out.

And it has been on Zizhu Peak for so long and no longer has any demon scent.

Instead, it's very gentle and approachable.

I'm relieved to hear you say that.

How have you been since you came back?

I'm fine. Thank you.

With so much going on, how could you be okay?

That's all over.

What about you? I heard that demons have invaded the Mortal World several times.

Is it really that serious?

Sages and my master have been discussing how to deal with it.

It's my fault to fight with Wang Yue last time.

Wang Yue?

The current Demon King.

I thought that I had achieved some success after practicing in Nanhua for so many years.

After fighting with Wang Yue last time, I realized how narrow my view was.

You are very good already.

It's far from enough.

Chong Zi. I never asked you

why you entered the immortal sect.

I used to do it to not get bullied.

Now I want to be like my master.

Do you still remember the letter my mother asked me

to hand over to Sage Tianji when we first met at the foot of Nanhua Mountain?

Yes. At that time, I thought you were going to rely on your parents for mentorship.

My father is a high-ranking official.

The purpose of them sending me to Nanhua is to let me learn spells

and serve the family in exchange for more glory.

But you didn't give it to Sage Tianji.

Because I don't agree with these in my heart.

However, I cannot disobey the orders of my parents.

I really envy you, Chong Zi.

After I met you, I realized that young people in the world can have such a way of life.

Immortal cultivation can be so pure, without any other purpose.

You can do it now.

Master told me that those who cultivate immortal bones have to be out of ordinary mind.

Although we cannot save everyone,

we can create the six worlds without disputes.

Otherwise, it would be worthless for us to work so hard to practice spells.

You can always resolve troubles with the simplest reasoning.

Compared with you, my practice for so long is in vain.

Come on. We are friends. I'm happy to help you.

I recently practiced a few new sword techniques.

Shall we compete?

Sure.

Let's go.

The demons' attack this time is in full fury.

I don't know if the demon sword can be defended in Nanhua.

I have to go.

Yunji. Go with me to see Luo Yinfan.

I'm just a doctor. What can I do?

When the demons come to attack, the first to suffer are always mortals.

I should go to the Mortal World. I don't want you to deal with the demons.

Don't you understand what's in my mind?

Father, I'm also going to Nanhua.

Why are you eavesdropping? Get out.

It's none of your business.

How come? Now that the demons are rampant,

as your son and the Young Master of Qinghua Palace,

I cannot just stand by and watch.

Yao, Hao has grown up.

It's a good thing for him to go out and experience more.

Since I am not going, let him go.

Don't listen to his nonsense.

He just wants to go to Nanhua to meet Luo Yinfan's disciple.

Am I right?

Since you know everything, why make it difficult for me?

Now Wan Jie is dead, and she also returned to Nanhua.

What concerns do you have about her?

Father, you know me. She's the only one I want to marry.

You! Yao.

Like father, like son.

Hao's temperament is exactly the same as yours before.

Nothing else matters

except for love.

I actually think Luo Yinfan's disciple and Hao are really a perfect match.

Yao. What a blessing it is to be with the one you love.

Just let him go.

Forget it. Since you're pleading for him,

I'll take him with me this time,

so that he won't be distracted every day and not attend to his proper duties.

He will give up after meeting with a refusal a few times.

Pack up your luggage.

Thank you, Aunt.

You!

This...

Yunji. You are spoiling him.

You!

Thank you for traveling thousands of miles to come to Nanhua.

Recently, the demons led by Wang Yue invaded the Mortal World and became rampant day by day.

Although Wan Jie is dead and the sword of Ni Lun returned to Nanhua for purification,

the demons never restrain themselves.

Today's gathering is to hope that we can work together...

Councilor Min, excuse me.

It is said that the demon sword has returned to Nanhua.

But none of us has seen it.

How about taking this opportunity to open our eyes?

The sword is indeed in Nanhua.

You can see it whenever you want.

Why don't we discuss a countermeasure to deal with Wang Yue first,

and then go to take a look?

Since we can see it anytime, why not now?

My sect has a lot to do with the demon sword.

My niece was even killed by it.

It makes sense for me to take a look.

It's a big deal to fight against the demons.

Negotiations will definitely take days and nights.

We'll be waiting too long.

Purifying the demon sword is a major event in the immortal sect.

Nanhua should witness it together with other sects.

Over the years, countless disciples of various sects have been killed by this sword.

It is reasonable for them to want to see it.

Please fulfill everyone's wish.

Fine. Just come with me.

(I can take this time to see Chong Zi.)

Everyone.

As you can see, Wufang Pearl is purifying the demon sword.

I believe it won't be long before...

Councilor Min, what's going on?

How does Nanhua explain the anomalies of the sword of Ni Lun?

In my opinion, it is very likely that

the primordial spirit of Wan Jie is at work.

Why don't we work together to draw out Wan Jie's primordial spirit?

Sacrificing the sword is a forbidden technique in the Demon World.

Raise the sword with the primordial spirit, and the sword shares the fate with the person.

Everyone, purifying the demon sword is of great importance,

and there can be no mistakes.

Now, in order to prevent the primordial spirit from causing trouble,

Nanhua has to step up to purify the demon sword.

Councilor Min is right. This sword must be destroyed.

If it falls into the hands of the demons, there will be endless troubles.

But we really can't bear to dispel the last trace of Wan Jie's

primordial spirit like this.

Sage Chonghua, what shall we do?

The demon scent in the sword surged because of its resistance to purification.

It is also normal for the shield to break.

It's just a wisp of primordial spirit.

You don't have to worry too much.

A little leak will sink a great ship.

Taking it too lightly will only allow the demons to take advantage of the loopholes.

I don't care about others.

As long as the primordial spirit of Wan Jie exists in this world,

my niece will never rest in peace.

How can we speed up the purification of the demon sword?

I have an idea to avoid future troubles forever.

First, wash it with extremely cold water for seven days,

then use the spiritual energy of the Six-world Monument and Wufang Pearl as shield,

and exercise it with extremely hot fire for 49 days.

I think the strongest demon scent is nothing more than that.

The extremely cold water is that from Sihai Sea of Nanhua.

What about the extremely hot fire?

The Nine Heaven Fire is used in Qinghua's medicine furnace.

Lord Zhuo, please send someone to fetch it.

Yinfan. I have something important to discuss with you.

Chong Zi. Why are you here?

Of course I'm here to see you.

I heard that you have met Wan Jie again.

Did he hurt you? Are you okay?

Who am I? How could I be hurt by him easily?

How can you be okay? You were first wronged and then framed.

If I were you, I'd be so pissed off.

Fortunately, you are magnanimous.

But if you're okay,

the surprise I prepared will be useless.

Maybe next time.

No way. I've already prepared it.

Are you eager to see it?

Are you looking forward to it?

Say yes!

Okay, I am so eager to see it.

Watch carefully. I will definitely open your eyes.

I'm so looking forward to it.

I have seen everything on Zizhu Peak.

Hush.

How is it? Amazing, right?

So nice. What kind of illusion is this?

What illusion?

This is Qinghua's famous final hit, called Sea Flame.

Now that it's a final hit, how could it be so beautiful?

Who knows?

Maybe the more beautiful things are, the more dangerous they become.

Could you do that again?

What do you think it is?

A final hit may hurt people.

And I just managed to use it.

It's hard to do it even once.

But after I practice it well, I can show it to you every day in the future.

But these days I can't even sleep well.

It's all my fault that I'm not powerful enough

and let Wan Jie take you away just like that.

From now on, I will practice harder to protect you.

After you marry me in the future, I will never let anyone bully you.

Young Master Zhuo. You've changed.

Not at all! My feelings for you haven't changed at all.

I mean you don't seem to be the same as before.

So what? I can be better for you.

When one day I become the one in your heart,

will you marry me?

Thank you for your kindness.

I decided to stay in Nanhua for the rest of my life.

Why?

Are you worried about your evil breath?

I don't mind.

No.

I want to stay and serve Master.

Nonsense. It is impossible for a disciple to follow the master forever.

Do you think my father

will be prejudiced against you?

Don't worry, my father loves me very much.

He will never make things difficult for you.

Why?

Don't you believe in my feelings for you?

I believe in you, it's just... That's enough.

In short, no matter what your plans are,

I will never let you go.

What are you talking about?

Nothing.

Young Master Zhuo.I have something to do with Zhenzhu.

We are leaving.

I will come to you tomorrow.

Let's go.

What did you say to Young Master Zhuo just now?

Nothing special.

Don't be fooled by his rhetoric.

He recognized many younger sisters in the immortal sect.

If you are together with him, you will suffer.

I don't like him.

That's good. You are ruthless to him, but he doesn't give up on you.

Nanhua is very lively today.

The elders from all the immortal sects came.

Would you like to go down the mountain with me and have a look?

No. I would only annoy them.

Be careful.

Why do you think Young Master Zhuo followed his father to Nanhua this time?

But my master has already rejected Lord Zhuo.

It was because your master didn't agree before.

But it seems that Councilor quite likes Zhuo Hao.

However, it's still a long-term plan.

If your master doesn't agree, no one...

No way, I have to take a look.

Didn't you just say no?

Chong Zi.

Yinfan.

This is the second time that Lord Zhuo has come to propose marriage.

I can hardly shirk his request.

So I can only ask you.

Look. Marriage between sects has always been a happy event.

Have you ever thought about letting people from Chonghua Palace

and Qinghua's Young Master...

Never.

Yinfan. Even if it's not for the marriage between the two sects, but for Chong Zi?

If her evil breath is used by others and affects the demon sword, what should I do?

I will take charge.

You will take charge?

How? And for how long?

Yes, she's just your disciple.

You cannot live with your disciple for the rest of your life.

You seem to be protecting her, but in fact, you are harming her.

How do you know it's impossible if you don't try it?

How will others see you?

Yinfan. You care about Chong Zi now

more than you should do to your disciple.

Yes. Don't you know it yourself?

So what if I know or don't know?

There is no need for others to manage our affairs.

Okay. Let's not discuss the leave or stay of Chong Zi for now.

Let's just talk about the purification of the sword of Wan Jie. If Chong Zi delays the purification...

Senior. If the matter of purification is not spread, how can Chong Zi delay it?

Not spread it?

I think you just don't want Chong Zi to know.

She's clearly bound to that demon sword.

But you are afraid that she will be sad for the purification of the demon sword.

Yinfan, this matter can't be left to chance.

The relationship between Chong Zi and that demon sword

- is more than... - I do protect Chong in everything.

But I am not unreasonable.

If she is really affected by the demon sword,

I will definitely not let it go.

The immortal sect can no longer have a second Wan Jie.

Then what are you going to do?

Zero tolerance.

Are you looking for your master?

Come here, I have something to ask you.

I know that I am born with evil breath

and coveted by the demons.

I am likely to make a big mistake in the future.

My going to Qinghua is out of the care and consideration of Nanhua.

But I never thought that I would be bewitched by the demon sword,

nor did I want to cause trouble for Master.

So I have a way to relieve the worries of yours.

You are just worried that my inborn evil breath will react to the sword of Ni Lun.

As long as I give up my human body,

I cannot cast the blood curse.

Even if someone wants to use me, there is no way.

Is this what you were thinking about during your cultivation on Zizhu Peak for the past few days?
