[The World I Love - Liu Yuning]

♫ Dark night, wet moon, and cold blood ♫

♫ Made the naked pupils in my eyes afraid of the light ♫

♫ Is it bright and warm? I can only guess based on intuition ♫

♫ Ah, love pouring over the world like jade, granting me good luck ♫

♫ Ah, the thread of love is coiled strongly around me ♫

♫ Ah, the thread of love is coiled strongly around me ♫

♫ I do not fear how people treat me in this world ♫

♫ Breaking through, struggling to escape ♫

♫ How to differentiate between good and bad ♫

♫ There are times when I'm fragile, heal wounds with a kiss of love ♫

♫ My existence ♫

♫ Thorns won't break my wings ♫

[Till The End of The Moon]

[Episode 4]

Princess Yue Ruanruan, known for her gentleness and virtues, is hereby granted the title of Consort Rou.

She will be welcomed and greeted with a grand wedding ceremony.

A nationwide celebration.

May Your Majesty and Her Highness love each other forever, and may your descendants thrive on and on!

♫ Throughout my life looking into the distance in the hopes of meeting you ♫

♫ I became the light traveling in darkness ♫

♫ One teardrop, one inch of ash, one thought repeatedly ♫

♫ Life is short yet a dream is long ♫

Congrats, Your Majesty! Consort Rou is pregnant!

Auntie.

Can you sew?

Of course.

These are our child's clothes.

I must sew them with my own hands.

You were born with high hopes.

They loved each other so much.

How could King Jing agree to let him be a hostage prince in Sheng Kingdom?

Your Majesty, Consort Rou has been in difficult labor for three days.

The imperial doctor has tried all methods.

I'm afraid you can only save one of them.

Your Majesty, please decide soon.

What's there to decide? Of course, you should save Consort Rou.

I just want her to live. Everything else doesn't matter. Go now!

- Yes. - Princess. Princess, hang in there.

His Majesty's order: keep Consort Rou alive is the top priority.

Princess.

Lan'an, you must save this child.

Don't let him die because of me.

He will be a kind-hearted child.

Please.

Monster!

Princess!

- Someone! - Princess!

Someone, please help!

He shouldn't have been born into this world.

He's responsible for Consort Rou's death.

He killed the woman I loved the most.

Please have mercy, Your Majesty.

Your Majesty, the little prince hasn't had any milk since he was born.

If you banish him to a deserted palace, he won't be able to survive. Your Majesty!

Please have mercy! Please have mercy!

He's not my son!

He's a monster!

Your Majesty!

The little prince is Her Highness' only bloodline.

Your Majesty!

If the little prince dies, Her Highness will really be gone for good, Your Majesty!

Please have mercy!

If you insist on protecting him, you shall be his guardian.

You shall fend for yourselves in the palace.

Thanks, Your Majesty!

- Thanks, Your Majesty! - Thanks, Your Majesty!

Let's go quickly!

Your Majesty, these are all lucky names provided by the Ministry of Rites for the little prince.

Please decide which one it shall be.

I understand.

The names of all children bear the expectations of parents. [Jin] (Jin means ashes.)

But Tantai Jin's name was a curse.

Why is someone awake?

Watch out!

Tantai Jin? Tantai Jin?

I only left for a short while, and you two broke free.

You're quite something.

I was wondering why you didn't have nightmares.

Turns out you don't have any love threads.

What don't I have?

You were born without love threads.

That's why you can't feel emotions.

You won't feel happy or sad.

You won't feel scared, either.

How can a loveless one have nightmares?

What a waste of all your miserable memories.

However, I finally found your weakness just now.

Something you do care about in this world.

Even if it's only a little.

But that will suffice.

Enjoy your nightmares!

Where is this place?

How can a baby live here?

He will be frozen to death!

Go find him now.

Find him now!

It seems that Tantai Jin and I entered different timelines.

No.

I must find Young Devil Lord soon.

The divine mirror shines, see through all illusions.

Shatter!

Without Chongyu Harp,

my power isn't enough to break the barrier.

Only after Yingxin's memories end, I can get out.

- Your Highness. - I hope Young Devil Lord is fine.

Your Highness!

Your Highness!

Your Highness! No!

What should we do, Sister Lan'an? He's not breathing.

Don't speak nonsense!

Your Highness! Your Highness!

Why would he wake up after sucking blood?

He's a monster!

Why was he born with teeth?

Don't say anything like this again.

We can't let others know this.

As expected from Young Devil Lord.

But the war of God and Devil happened ten thousand years ago,

why would he be born at this very time and place?

Here it is.

Your Highness, don't cry.

- Don't cry. Here comes the yummy food. - Don't cry.

Come on.

- Don't cry. - Although he led a hard life, at least some tried their best to take care of him.

But how long could they keep living like this?

Here you are.

It's edible.

See?

Stop crying.

It is fine.

Don't cry.

Kneel!

Just kneel!

Today, I'm going to let him be our puppy. How about that?

Yeah!

- Bark! - Bark!

- Come on. - Bark!

- Come on. - Bark!

Do it!

Bark!

Come on and bark!

- Bark! - Come on!

Puppy!

- These little brats! - Come on!

Give it to him.

You can't kneel to those servants.

Let alone bark like a dog, understand?

They said if I barked, they wouldn't beat me.

And even gave me food.

Don't you know what dignity is?

Were you born without a sense of shame?

As a prince, you're bullied by servants.

Do you have no sense of shame at all?

Sense of shame?

That means nothing to me.

Food is clearly more important.

They keep bullying you like this.

Don't you feel sad?

What's a sense of shame?

What's feeling sad?

They're making fun of you.

Did they not mean to give me food?

No.

I see.

Then, can I kill them?

So this is the nature of a devil god?

I can't take this anymore. His Highness isn't normal at all!

He's a monster!

What nonsense are you talking about?

He's only six. He's still a child.

You think he's abnormal simply because he has been living in the deserted palace and is constantly bullied.

Understand?

But…

We're running out of money and jewelry.

We can't sustain like this.

Here's an idea.

A few days from now is the palace maids' off-day.

I'll try to slip out and ask for help from the Yiyue Tribe.

What about me?

Yingxin, I need you to take care of him alone for a while.

His Highness inherited the ability to communicate with animals.

He's the hope of the Yiyue Tribe.

We must save him!

Don't worry.

I'll be back soon.

I'll do my best to bring you and His Highness to the Yiyue Tribe soon.

Trust me.

Does it hurt?

Thanks for caring, Your Highness.

I'm used to it.

Where is Tantai Jin?

Come quickly to hear your edict!

It must be Lan'an coming to save us!

His Highness is here!

Edict from His Majesty:

"Tantai Jin is to set off immediately to be a Sheng hostage."

What do you mean a Sheng hostage?

Do you even have to ask?

We lost the battle with Sheng Kingdom.

To make peace, His Majesty ordered Tantai Jin to be a hostage prince in the Sheng Kingdom.

He shall set off today.

Understand?

You two help them pack things up.

- Yes. - Yes.

Jing Lan'an, you liar!

You escaped to the outside and left me here to die!

Liar!

Liar!

Liar!

We're in the Sheng Kingdom now.

Steward Wu.

You're called Yue Yingxin?

You're the maid who came along with the hostage prince of Jing Kingdom?

Are you taking snacks to him?

I'm not going to eat you.

Get in there.

Yes.

This old turtle is so disgusting!

Your Highness!

Hold down this lowly maid, too!

What are you doing?

Let go of me! Your Highness!

Your Highness! Your Highness!

They say you're a freak.

You don't shed tears.

I don't believe there's someone who doesn't shed tears.

Cry for me now. And I'll let you go.

I really can't.

Your Highness!

How's that? Does it hurt?

The hostage prince still isn't crying.

Don't stop!

Go ahead and break his other arm off!

Yes.

Stop!

[Reciting in spring, playing music in summer]

Greetings, Sixth Prince.

You may all rise.

Fifth Brother, Prince Tantai left his home country to be a guest in our kingdom.

He did it for the peace of the two kingdoms.

And also for keeping the civilians free from the pains of war.

We should treat him politely.

How can you bully him without any scruples?

Such a bummer.

Let's go!

Your Highness.

Thank you, Sixth Prince, for saving us.

No need. My fifth brother was being rude.

Prince Tantai looks pale.

Why don't you go back and rest?

I'll explain it to the teacher for you.

Come on. Thank you, Sixth Prince!

Why would that Sixth Prince tell his brother to stop?

And how could he make them fear him?

I heard that Sixth Prince's mother is the queen.

She's also His Majesty's favorite in the inner court.

People in the palace are mostly superficial.

So naturally they dare not offend him.

Mother?

If he didn't have a mother anymore, would he be the same as me?

Actually, what I said isn't necessarily right.

Besides his mother is important and favored,

Six Prince is also gentle and intelligent.

Who wouldn't like him?

Really?

If I behaved like him, will others like me as well and stop bullying me?

[Geography of Four Continents]

"Geography of Four Continents"?

Your Highness, why are you reading this?

It is said that Xiao Lin just went to Mount Buzhao, where he'll cultivate for three years.

I don't know that place. So I wanted to find it in books.

Someone can't even get out of the palace, but is still dreaming about some immortal mountain.

Trying to learn spells to fly out of here?

Fifth Prince.

Take this!

Your Highness!

Are you all right?

Fifth Prince, why did you hit me?

Why?

Because your smile looks disgusting.

I tell you what, I've had enough of a freak like you!

Now that Xiao Lin's not around, let's see who will protect you in the palace!

Get him!

Your Highness!

Stop it!

Stop!

Your Highness!

I thought they stopped bullying me all these years because

because I acted like Xiao Lin and learned to be a normal person like Lan'an said before she left.

But I didn't know they were just scared of Xiao Lin.

Sixth Prince, congrats for completing your training and moving into your new mansion!

Good things come in pairs!

Congrats! Congrats!

Prince Tantai?

We haven't met for three years. Thank you for coming today.

Congratulations.

Look! Eldest Miss Ye is here!

Who is this lady?

She's the daughter of the Pillar of the State Great General.

Miss Ye.

Your Highness.

It's getting chilly.

Be careful not to catch a cold.

Thank you, Your Highness.

This…

Prince Tantai, why are you here?

Miss Ye.

The weather is chilly. Be careful not to catch a cold.

Your Highness, I don't feel cold.

Please keep the cloak for yourself.

Could Tantai Jin like Ye Bingchang because he was imitating Xiao Lin?

Yingxin, is it because my cloak is worn out?

Tantai Jin!

Who are you trying to disgust this time?

Fifth Prince, so many people pass by this corridor.

If you plan on beating me up here, I'm afraid…

You haven't heard?

Now, the Sheng and Jing Kingdoms are at war.

If I beat you like a Jing dog, who's gonna stop me?

Get him!

Your Highness!

Take that!

Your Highness!

Stop it!

He's been getting beaten so frequently.

When does this ever end?

Yingxin,

what does it feel like to be liked?

You're not answering.

Is it because you don't like me, either?

Please forgive me, Your Highness!

I didn't mean that.

When I was little, I couldn't understand what the looks on people's faces meant.

But now,

I sort of understand a little.

Actually, you've always resented me.

It's because of me that you're trapped in this dark and remote palace.

Yingxin, I don't blame you.

I resent myself, too.

I know people out there don't like me.

Normally speaking,

I should feel sad inside.

If it were Xiao Lin, he'd be ridden with such guilt that he couldn't eat.

Later on, I started imitating Xiao Lin.

I imitated everything he did,

hoping that I could gradually become him.

To be someone likable just like Xiao Lin.

But Yingxin, I still can't feel a thing.

I was faking it when I smiled like him.

I was faking it when I was being magnanimous.

I was even...

faking it when I cared about others.

Fake things...

deserve to be detested,

to be loathed,

and to be abandoned.

Forget it.

- For someone like me, being alive is a blessing enough. - Your Highness.

- Why bother asking too much for being loved? - Your Highness!

Born with an evil bone…

Having no emotions or love…

None of it was what he wanted.

Nor was it his fault.

But once he became Devil Lord,

all those victims were indeed slain by him.

I was ordered to send a verbal message from the Jing Kingdom.

Jing Kingdom?

The hostage prince will soon marry and leave the Palace of Sheng.

But once he does, he might return to the Jing Kingdom.

Once he returns, he'll probably grasp power, and then he'll become untouchable.

That's why Prince Minglang said

the hostage prince should better not leave this palace forever.

Tantai Minglang?

Young Devil Lord's elder brother.

Tantai Minglang wants me to kill him?

Then, what's in it for me?

Even displaced horses and birds miss their home.

Prince Minglang knows that you're getting older.

As long as you're willing to help us,

we'll think of a way to help you get out of the palace and return to your hometown.

Really?

You've sacrificed your best years and ruined most of your life just for Tantai Jin.

Are you really willing to follow this monster until you die in a foreign land?

Yingxin, don't be tempted!

You watched Tantai Jin growing up.

Although he's weird, he never once hurt you.

Do you really have the heart to do this?

He has no family or friends in Sheng Kingdom.

You're the only person he can trust.

You can't betray him!

Yingxin! Yingxin!

Okay, I'll do it.

Very well, then. I'll leave for now.

Even you betrayed him.

In Tantai Jin's whole life, if only there was someone who truly loved him and held his reins,

maybe… he wouldn't have been forced to become a devil.

It's finally over.

We finally found it.

The demon's den is protected by a barrier.

Bingchang's probably here.

I feel that Tantai Jin and Second Young Miss Ye are imprisoned here, too.

We have to rescue them fast.

Go check the border of this barrier.

Have someone guard the roads.

Yes.

Let's go.

Hurry!

Now, we must lure the demon out.

I'll do it.

Demon! We've found your den!

Stop hiding! Otherwise, I'll set your woods on fire!

Free delivery to my doorstep?

I wonder how Yingxin went crazy after.

Tantai Jin.

Tantai Jin!

Tantai Jin!

Tantai Jin, wake up!

Tantai Jin!

You said you couldn't dream.

But why is there a nightmare blossom sprouting from you?

Tantai Jin!

Tantai Jin, wake up!

Tantai Jin!

Tantai Jin! Tantai Jin!

Tantai Jin, wake up!

I heard Jin is one of the best among the outer disciples of Xiaoyao Sect.

And his talents are extraordinary.

He's just doing it for fun.

What? Do you really want Jin to be an immortal?

Let me look at you, dear.

You've really gotten thinner after you left the palace.

Mother.

- Here. - I have something to tell you, my son.

While you were away cultivating, I've arranged you a marriage.

Thank you, Father.

The bride is the daughter of Sheng Kingdom's General Ye Xiao.

Conflicts can never seem to cease between the Sheng and Jing Kingdoms.

After we form a marriage alliance this time, we will be more like friends than enemies.

I'll do what as you wish, Father and Mother.

Jin, while you were cultivating in Xiaoyao Sect, did you meet any promising young talents?

The Sixth Prince Xiao Lin of Sheng Kingdom got along well with me.

What a coincidence.

Xiao Lin happens to be the one escorting the bride to the Jing Kingdom.

You can spend time with him and get to know him better.

Yes.

Congratulations, Your Highness!

I didn't want to choose your wife so hastily.

Congratulations, Your Highness!

But now that you have become the crown prince,

your marriage concerns the kingdom's future.

Congratulations, Your Highness.

Eldest Young Miss Ye is well-educated.

She's also a stunning beauty.

I think you'll like her, my son.

Ye Xiwu?

Why is it you?

Who else?

Who did you think it was?

Mother?

Mother!

Father.

You matricidal bastard!

No.

Father, I didn't kill mother!

Lan'an,

don't go.

You're a monster.

Don't go.

In your yellow-millet dream, you had such a perfect family. (A yellow millet dream refers to an unfeasible hope.)

How did it feel to be loved by everybody?

Xiao Lin, save me!

But that's all fake.

Once you wake up from these dreams, no one will care about you, nor will anyone love you.

All this time, you've been imitating me,

hoping you could be like me, to be acknowledged by others.

But in your dream just now, you got everything you ever wanted.

Love from your parents.

Easily ascending to the throne.

Even I'd envy that kind of life.

But can you really feel happiness?

I cannot feel anything.

I felt nothing.

If not for you, your mother wouldn't have died.

Your father wouldn't have suffered the loss of his beloved.

Lan'an wouldn't have wasted away in that dark palace.

Yingxin wouldn't have been insulted time and time again.

They were all your nearest and dearest.

But they all hate you.

I never intended to do them harm.

Never.

See?

All emotions, affections, and desires mean nothing to you.

All you have ever known was to protect yourself.

You don't understand or care about other people's pain at all.

I understand.

I understand it all.

I just can't feel it.

Tantai Jin, you are really pathetic.

You're alive, but you can't feel the slightest beauty of this mortal world.

You can't even feel the pain of this mortal world.

The only point of your existence is to bring torment to others.

No!

To be despised and hated by others.

Why… are you even alive?

No! That's not true!

But at least, your mother never hated you!

She loved you till the very end.

If you could see her and hear her say how much she loved you,

you could break free from this fate.

Do you want to see her?

The chance is right before your eyes.

What are you waiting for?

You must experience all pain in the world and draw endless hatred.

You're carrying the curse of your fate.

You're destined to have a bitter end.

When your pain reaches its peak, when your life reaches the end,

I will come and accept your offering.

I'm done waiting.

I do not want to wait any longer.

Tantai Jin! You can't die!

Why is my power weakening?

Xiao Lin!

Hurry, Junior Martial Uncle.

Ah, whatever. This will do!

We did it!

Where did she go?

So you ruined my vines.

I should've swallowed you and let your soul disperse!

Tantai Jin.

Why not have a taste of this demon?

What are you talking about?

Your blood restrains all demons in this world.

Your body can bear their demonic powers.

As long as they can't kill you, you can use their power.

Do you feel it?

This power is what your body craves.

Isn't it more fun than emotions and desires?

Don't try to fool me again!

With the whip of power in your hands, you'll be the highest ruler of this world.

This is the taste of power!

I promise you this, once you've tasted it,

you'll never want to lose it again.

Tantai Jin! Tantai Jin!

Your Highness, Eldest Young Miss Ye is over here.

Bingchang!

Where's that demon?

Was she blasted to ashes by the spell I used?

Let's save the people first.

Bingchang!

Bingchang!

No…

No…

Tantai Jin!

Am I back again?

Miss!

Miss, you're finally awake!

I was worried sick! I thought you were going to die.

Where's Tantai Jin? Is he dead?

Mr. Tantai was placed in the east-wing chamber.

He hasn't woken up yet, but he's probably not gonna die.

Chuntao, how did we get back?

I can't remember.

It was Sixth Prince who brought you back.

The imperial doctor said you passed out just because you were too weak.

Her Ladyship and Old Master sat by your bed for a whole night and just left to rest.

What about my sister? Is she all right?

Eldest Young Miss is okay now.

Sixth Prince is looking after her.

The damage in the nightmares were real.

Thank god I stopped him from slitting his throat.

Tantai Jin can't die.

But who can withstand such a painful life?

If I can give him a hand,

would he be able to live normally and not turn into Devil Lord?

Li Susu, you're actually sympathizing with him.

He destroyed Hengyang Sect. He killed so many people.

He plagued the three realms and four continents.

He must pay for all these debts.

Even if he's suffering so terribly now, it's his fate.

But it's now five hundred years ago.

He hasn't yet killed anyone, nor is he capable of causing harm.

Being constantly bullied is simply cruelty for doing no wrong.

Since I was little, Father taught me to be upright and be true to my heart.

Now that I know all this, and if I'm secretly happy for it, I'll be confusing right from wrong.

Second Young Miss, please have some rest before you see her.

Even if you are hurried to see Sixth Prince…

- Wait till you can stand properly… - I'm going to see Tantai Jin.

As long as they can't kill you, you can use their power.

Power.

So,

this is...

what power feels like.
