[Beauty of Resilience]

[Episode 5]

Dean.

What are you...

Have some tea.

Thank you.

Wei Zhi.

What happened today

is not your fault.

Don't blame yourself.

What the students said

is not entirely wrong.

I've been different from others since I was young.

I can see demons and evil spirits

that others can't see.

So I suffered a lot.

Dean.

Please teach me immortal techniques

to expel the anomaly on me.

I just want to be a normal person.

I don't want people around me to suffer.

Stand up.

Kid, come on.

Kid.

I really can't help you.

I cultivate

neither to exorcise unwanted spirites,

nor to make elixirs for immortality.

What's more,

I don't even know

those techniques and magic.

I do this

to learn the truth.

What is humanity?

What is the law of Heaven?

If I can figure out these problems,

my whole life of cultivation

is worth it.

But I have a word for you.

The so-called anomaly

may not be

some evil power.

Instead, it could be your destiny.

You mean I'm destined to be like this?

Is it really incurable?

You have your destiny.

This may be a restriction

or

a responsibility.

I don't understand.

You will know

when it happens.

Alright.

Kid.

Where did you get

this jade bracelet?

Picked up off somewhere.

What's your relationship

with Lord Gu Huaixuan?

I don't know this person.

This jade bracelet is unique.

How could it be picked up

so easily?

When I was young, there was a war.

My mother and I found it

on the way to escape from famine.

I had already taken it to the pawnshop.

But they said it was worthless.

I put it on because it looks good.

I'll let you take a rest, Dean.

I'm leaving.

Making trouble only because you know magic.

Let's mind our own business.

If you make trouble again,

I'll be angry.

Fire!

Help!

Help!

Why do you

always cause trouble?

I didn't. It was the raven spirit.

He kept pouncing off my shuttlecock.

You're lying.

I didn't. I'm telling the truth.

Tell me.

What is

on your body?

Why did the fire start

so suddenly?

I don't know.

Give me your hand.

How dare you lie!

How dare you disobey me!

How dare you lie!

Get in.

Mom, open the door!

Open the door!

If you don't tell me the truth,

what did you use to set the fire,

then you won't go out today.

I'm not lying.

Open the door!

Feng Zhi.

The kid has always listened to me.

Mother. Open the door. Let me do it.

[Gu City Old Castellan Gu Huaixuan]

You should go back.

Mom.

Yes, Father.

Don't be afraid.

Grandpa.

Don't be afraid.

I'm here.

Feng Zhi.

I know you're not lying.

Don't cry.

I trust you.

Grandpa, what is this?

This is the heirloom

of our Gu family.

In the past,

every generation only passed it

to the leader of the family.

Now,

I want to give it

to my precious granddaughter.

After wearing it,

you won't

lose your temper for no reason.

If I hadn't lost my temper,

Mom wouldn't have

been mad at me, right?

You're right.

Remember.

From now on,

you can't take it off.

Remember.

Okay, good kid.

Grandpa.

Dad.

I miss you.

I just want to remind you that

this wine

is good for your muscles and bones

and helps promote blood circulation.

If it had been that easy,

I wouldn't have had to go back

to Heaven Realm to get the medicine.

It seems that

the Demon Clan

has sent someone powerful.

Their magic is indeed strange.

I underestimated the enemy.

However,

the wound on my chest

wasn't caused by the Demon Clan.

I've had it for a long time.

Since I came to the mortal world,

the wound on the chest

has been hurt repeatedly.

Recently, it's been more frequent.

I don't know why.

What kind of war

and people

could cause a serious wound like this?

I tried my best to recall,

but I couldn't remember anything.

Fortunately, you don't remember.

Still don't recall?

In the Three Realms,

only few people

can cause such a serious wound.

We've been fighting together for hundreds of years.

Do you remember?

Well...

We've been through

countless battles together.

It's inevitable

to have some wounds on your body.

Don't think too much.

Just treat when you have it.

Drink when you want.

Apply the medicine when it's needed.

But I think

our priority now

is to focus on

the selection of the Phoenix.

How is that

Wei Lingyue?

I've arranged her in the East Yard

and set up a barrier to defend demons.

No demons or devils can get close to it.

Father.

I heard that

you were hurt.

Don't worry, Father.

Master has subdued the Demon Clan.

And he set the barrier to defend demons

in the East Yard

to protect me.

Enough.

Stop it.

You and Jingyue

are going back with me immediately.

Father.

I can't go back.

I finally

get what I have today.

Besides,

these 18 people

were chosen by His Majesty.

When we first came here, you've said that

this was an imperial edict that we couldn't disobey.

I will ask for an imperial edict

from His Majesty.

Father,

I'm begging you.

I really can't leave.

I will work hard

and become the Phoenix.

I'll bring glory to you

and the Wei family.

Lingyue,

what I fear the most

is that you work too hard.

The Wei family

doesn't need you to be the Phoenix.

The Phoenix is chosen by the God.

And there are signs on my body showing

that I'm the Phoenix.

Stop it.

It's just a farce.

Father,

please trust me.

I'm really the Phoenix.

Why are you so stubborn?

Not only will you be hurt by yourself,

but also your sister.

I see.

All you care about is my sister.

Fine.

Take her back

in case she gets hurt by me.

You...

What are you

talking about?

Did I say anything wrong?

Since I was young,

all you've cared about is my sister.

You've never cared about me.

You...

You are so stubborn.

Father.

Mother died of metrorrhagia

after giving birth to my sister.

So you gave

all your love for mom

to the baby

in the swaddling.

Everyone in the Wei family

respects your love

for mother.

But who would understand my grudge

after losing my mother

and the love of my father?

We are all your daughters.

But Sister can be naughty and wilful.

I can only work hard.

No matter how good I am in others' eyes,

I've never gotten recognition from you.

But it's different now.

Now I'm the Phoenix

I'm the focus of everyone's attention.

No matter how biased you are,

you can't hide my light.

You...

Father.

Father, I was looking for you and Sister

to have a meal together.

What's wrong?

What's wrong, Father?

Sister!

What's wrong?

Did you quarrel with Father?

Sister.

What's wrong?

Your eyes are red.

I'm fine.

Sister.

You know

our father.

If he says anything bad,

don't argue with him.

Just follow what he says.

Act cute.

He'll be fine soon.

Look at you.

Your eyes are swollen.

That's not cool.

My sister

is the future Phoenix.

Show your dignity and nobility.

Jingyue,

do you really think

that I'm the Phoenix?

Of course.

It must be you.

Don't you feel grudging?

What do you mean?

Have you

never thought about

being the Phoenix yourself?

Who doesn't want to be the Phoenix?

But you are the one I've respected the most

since I was young.

So I naturally believe

that you are the Phoenix.

Do you really think so?

Of course.

I'm not the only one who thinks that.

Others must think so too.

I am

your Chief Guardian.

If anyone dares to compete with you

for the Phoenix, I will be angry. I...

How could you be my Chief Guardian

with such a few skills?

Sister, I’ll practice hard.

Go back.

I want to rest.

Okay.

Sister.

You're not sad anymore?

Trust me, Sister.

I will protect you.

No matter it is people or demons,

I'll kill all of them who stop you.

I'm leaving.

Trust me.

A barrier?

Seems like that

it's the Master again.

No, no, no.

It's me...

Why are you here again? You're still here?

Well...

I just wanted to scare you.

Look what you did to me.

You painted my face like this.

Don't make trouble.

I told you it's dangerous here.

Leave now.

Unless...

you clean it for me.

It's very dangerous.

You...

You little devil

are still fooling around.

Master really ordered

to expel demons and devils this time.

If you are caught,

I can't save you.

That master?

Do you think I'm afraid of him?

I'm the Prince of the Devil Clan.

You think I can't defeat him?

You can't beat him.

I can't?

Why can't I?

Don't you believe

that I can defeat him, right?

I... Let’s go.

Go!

Go!

If you meet a woman

in this world

and you can't stop yourself from loving her,

Then you must do whatever it takes

to keep her.

A woman

whom I can't stop loving...

Are you stupid?

What... What happened?

Are you...

That's so strange.

The East Yard.

Lady Lingyue.

That's strange.

Why is the black energy gone?

Lady Lingyue.

Lady Lingyue.

Is she not here?

Lady Lingyue.

Come out.

Lady Lingyue.

It's dangerous outside. Don't come out.

Lady Lingyue.

If you don't come out,

she will die.

Bad news! Bad news!

Bad news!

What's wrong?

What’s wrong? It’s a demon.

The Demon Clan's here!

It's the Demon Clan!

Calm down.

My sister...

Calm down.

You girls go back to your room.

Let's take a look.

Okay.

I want to go too. Okay. Hurry.

My sister is still in the East Yard.

I'm going to save my sister.

Don't worry.

We will save her.

Bao Liang! Protect her!

I want to go too.

I'm going to save my sister!

Calm down, Jingyue.

Step aside.

It seems that

no one cares about your life.

You are the Penglai Immortal Envoy?

You are...

The supreme lord of the Demon Clan.

Hand Wei Lingyue over.

I can spare your life.

Stop it.

I don't like killing.

What should we do?

Lord, bad news.

Huarong's missing.

Wait and see.

The Phoenix.

I'm determined to get it.

Master.

Master!

Master! Master!

Is Wei Zhi okay?

She's fine.

Liu Chang.

Send Wei Zhi back.

OK.

Where is Lingyue?

I'm here.

Lingyue.

Are you alright?

Thank you, Master.

Thank you everyone.

I will never forget

your kindness.

The supreme lord of the Demon Clan

came personally.

It seems that Wei Lingyue

is indeed the Phoenix.

But...

why did he leave in a hurry?

Please spare my life.

You loser! Lord.

This is very strange.

I've been watching Huarong

and never left.

But Huarong disappeared

for no reason.

Then why don't you go find it?

No matter where is it in the Three Realms,

you have to find it for me.

Yes.

[Qiao Mu House]

You're awake.

Lady Lingyue.

Are you okay?

Are you feeling unwell?

Lady Lingyue, I'm fine.

You almost died

to save me.

It's my fault.

But Master asked me

to hide in the barrier.

I dare not to disobey Master's order.

At the most dangerous time,

I didn't fight

with you.

And you almost died to save me.

I'm really sorry.

It's fine.

I'm happy that I can protect you.

What's there to be happy about?

Master.

Wei Lingyue.

Without my permission,

you can't leave the East Yard.

Well done.

Go back now.

Yes.

Wei Zhi.

You risked your life

only to be brave?

Trying to kick against the pricks.

Disregard your own life.

Copy the skills of Deity Arts for 300 times as punishment.

That's too...

too much.

Wait.

Brother Rain God's wine

Chick feet from the mortal world.

The elf herbs from the Devil Clan.

Night-light mushrooms from the Demon Clan

And chilli from the hell.

The amount and seasoning are right.

It seems the heat is not right.

Just get to the point.

Don't fight.

Take it out.

What?

Huarong.

What Huarong?

I just picked some mushrooms.

They are all there.

If you want them,

just take away.

So the Huarong you mentioned

is this fire.

You can't blame this on me.

If you hadn't come to catch me,

the soup wouldn't have come out.

If the soup hadn't come out,

the fire wouldn't have been out.

I can save...

I can save your Huarong.

It's true...

Now,

Lady Lingyue is still

in the East Yard of the academy.

I'm afraid the Demon Clan will come back.

All right.

I know everything about the academy.

You can go.

Lord Imperial Advisor,

I know I was born dumb,

but I believe diligence can make up for it.

I'm willing to suffer

and practice immortal techniques

to serve you.

I see.

I won’t treat you badly.

Thank you, Lord Imperial Advisor.

I will study harder

and bring you glory

in the Mid-Autumn exam,

Okay. You can go.

Yes.

The Mid-Autumn exam

of the Egret Academy

will be held in half a month.

If by then,

the list of winners

is disclosed,

it will be too late

for us to negotiate.

I've written a letter to ask Ming Chengwu

back to the capital as soon as possible.

But the Ming family is at the border.

If we let them train soldiers in Gucheng,

the soldiers are brave and good at fighting,

no one in our country can defeat them.

Besides,

you're going to help his son.

Aren't you afraid of

danger caused by them in the future?

Because the Ming family is at the border,

they don't have

complex relationships

or anything at stake

in the capital.

It will be of no concerns to use them.

As for your concerns,

I can handle it.

Could it be that...

you have something

up on them?

Xiao Jin, where have you been?

You weren't there for lunch.

Did you sneak out

secretly?

Who do you think is the Phoenix?

Can't you tell

even now?

Still guessing?

The Mid-Autumn exam hasn't come yet.

It's too early to say it now.

Exam?

What...

What exam?

On every Mid-Autumn Day,

the academy will select

excellent students.

This is the tradition of the academy.

It's also called the Mid-Autumn Meeting.

Besides,

the list of the winners

will be disclosed to the world.

Exam?

- I’m afraid of exams. - What else can you do except from eating?

Smells good.

What are you doing? You scared me.

I heard that

you were hurt by the Demon Clan.

So I came to see if you're okay.

You don't have to.

It has nothing to do with you.

You're right.

What does it have to do with me?

You are not the Phoenix.

I'm looking for the Phoenix.

Why am I sad

because of your injury?

What are you mumbling about?

I advise you to leave now.

Listen.

Master can appear in the academyh

at any time.

Let me give you a massage.

It hurts so much.

Are you feeling better?

Not at all.

Then try again.

- No, I won’t. - Try again.

Leave me alone.

Let me try another way.

Try it again.

No.

Go away.

Why are you running so fast?

What happened?

Jogging.

Just to exercise.

What happened to your neck?

Well,

I sprained my ankle

when doing exercises.

It's nothing serious.

Let me see.

No.

No need.

I'll be fine

after some rest.

This is

the medicine.

It can help promote blood circulation.

Thank you, Master.

Then I'm leaving.

Wait.

Apply it with warm wine.

You'll recover sooner.

Thank you, Master.

[Born to be a jinx. Stupid like a pig] [Nemesis]

Lead the way.

Why are you

so impatient?

You tied me up

without knowing where it is.

Cut the crap.

Where is the thing

I'm looking for.

Yingzhou.

I promise I’ll come back

right after I get it.

Stop!

Yingzhou is indeed a land without a ruler,

but it's been guarded by the Rain God, Yan Luo.

Do you think I'm stupid

to let you go alone?

What should we do?

I'll go with you.

No, no.

If you come with me,

people will know that it's a demon

kidnapping a little fairy.

This may cause a war between the Heaven and Demon Realm.

Even if you are powerful,

the Heavenly Realm is not less than you.

The war could last for thousands of years.

Do you still want

to save your Huarong?

Let's go.

Wait.

Although your appearance has changed,

you still look fierce.

It looks much better this way.

From now on...

Shut up.

Who's there?

It's me, Tao.

Grass Fairy, Tao.

Greetings, Kitchen God in the East Kitchen and...

Him?

He's just a firewood man.

High Immortal of Firewood.

You're welcome. By the way,

where is the Rain God?

There's been a drought in the northwest.

Lord Rain went to see it.

He said he would be back soon.

God is on my side.

Tao.

It's only been a few days.

Why are you

so thin?

I'm not.

I've gained weight.

You're too thin.

It won't look good if a girl is too thin.

I specially prepared cake

with wine and mushroom flavor for you.

Try it.

No.

Tao.

What?

Do you really want to

the third Heaven-Demon War?

Tao, I'm sorry.

I can't even stand.
