[Beauty of Resilience]

[Episode 14]

Why are you here?

I

happened to pass by

and came to see you.

Yes.

We haven't seen each other for a long time.

Aren't you searching for the Phoenix?

Why are you here?

I just…

It's because of Yan Yue.

I couldn't find him.

I have to look around.

It's like finding a needle in a haystack.

Really?

Yes.

I understand.

Since you have to complete the report of the Heavenly Court,

you can't bear to see Yan Yue suffer either.

And you have to keep it a secret

from the soldiers

who have worked over nothing

and buy time.

There are indeed no harder things

than this.

I don't understand

what you said.

Brother,

listen to me.

No matter how much you help him,

Yan Yue

has to face it himself.

Take care.

I'm leaving.

Yan Yue.

Where have you been?

Thank you.

Thank you for saving me

twice.

Twice?

Yes.

It was you last time too?

Yes.

You are unlucky.

You always get hurt.

I am unlucky.

Then why don't you acquire

a human form

like other devils do?

Why are you laughing?

I'm not a devil.

I'm just an ordinary crow.

Then why

can I understand you?

Because you're Lord Phoenix.

As long as you listen carefully,

you can understand

the language of all birds.

Really?

Lord Phoenix.

You should go home now.

It's not safe here.

It's okay. My house is not far away.

My home is far away.

It's at the stone bridge in Yu Du's east suburb.

The stone bridge in the east suburb?

Mother.

Ye.

Mother. Ye.

Don't worry.

Take care.

Wei Zhi.

Little crow.

After you return to Yu Du,

please send this letter

to Baishi Bridge in the eastern suburb.

In front of the bridge,

there's a giant tree.

Under the tree

there is a yard with a well.

My mother's family name is Wei.

Or you can give it to my brother,

Wei Ye.

Don't worry.

I know that place.

Baishi Bridge in the east suburb.

Swallows make their nests

under the eaves there in summer.

Thank you.

It's an honor.

Please bless me all the way.

Don't make me the food

for others.

Don't say that.

Mother, Ye,

How are you?

Why did you throw away the clothes?

You scared me.

Why didn't you say anything?

I made you something delicious.

Fried japchae.

Try it.

How is it? Is it good?

You're finally back.

Sister.

In the last life,

I loved you so much

but I couldn't get what I want.

You could never be expected.

In this life,

as compensation,

can you

be nicer to me?

And nicer?

You can forget him.

From now on,

you can think of me,

and look at me only.

OK?

I don't understand

what you said.

I know

you don't understand.

But sister,

how could that man

actually make you like him

for so many lifetimes?

Sister.

You don't owe him

in any way.

You only owe me.

Sister.

Why are you doing this

to me?

You could have survived

in that battle.

Do you know how happy I was

when I knew you'd wake up?

But why?

Even if you start over,

even if you become

another person,

why is the ending the same?

The Formula is triggered.

He is in love, isn't he?

You are still in love.

Aren't you?

Lord,

I'm not your sister.

I'm Yi,

the Kitchen God in the East Kitchen of Heaven Realm.

No.

I'm cooking for you.

No.

Why...

Why won't you acknowledge me?

♫The sunset is just right♫

♫It's like a dream♫

Is it because of that person?

♫If you take the beauty♫

Have you considered

♫In your eyes♫

my feelings?

For the past ten thousand years,

I've been protecting you.

But all you think of is still

♫Don't make the love too strong♫

the person

that is nowhere to be found.

♫How much it entangles♫

Have you ever thought about me?

♫The thoughts♫

Do you know how I feel

♫The hourglass along your fingers♫

that day after day, year after year,

♫Where do we go from here?♫

I can never

be by your side?

Do you know?

♫Spread out your palm♫

♫If all your obsessions are empty♫

Sometimes,

I even want to drink your blood

♫Remembering the past♫

and eat your flesh

♫All that you've given me♫

so I can become one with you forever,

A little more touching♫

♫A little less frightened♫

because my love for you

♫How many times I've been in love♫

is swallowing me

like poison.

♫The more fate plays tricks on me♫

♫The more I sing the praises of love's nirvana♫

Let go of me.

Let go of me.

♫A wisp of dust and sorrow♫

♫Blow away like the wind♫

♫Who plays on his heart in tears?♫

♫I can't help but reach out♫

♫To the thoughts♫

♫Don't ask, don't tell♫

♫Just hold each other♫

♫Fold a feather of tenderness♫

♫And it's immortal♫

♫Believe in love and loneliness♫

♫Learn to be foolish and brave♫

♫It's hard to turn back♫

Lord.

♫You don't have to understand if you don't want to hear♫

♫Even if it's a dream♫

Are you laughing?

I didn't expect

someone to be able to see

I'm laughing.

♫Ride or die♫

♫A silhouette that can't be forgotten♫

So

you're really laughing.

But

♫In the darkness♫

your smile is weird.

♫I hear you calling me♫

My smile

♫When the roots of love are deep♫

♫I've been engraved in my heart♫

has been replaced

for something else.

♫Love is like a splash of vermilion♫

Can a smile be exchanged?

♫The more the years are rushing to dust♫

Have you heard of the Formula?

♫The more the heart beats with fire♫

No.

♫Twist a wisp of dust and worry♫

♫For whom to put it all together again♫

The Formula

♫A few tears to revisit the same place♫

is the most sinister thing in the world.

♫I can't help but reach out♫

Once a person is hit

♫To the thoughts♫

♫Don't ask, don't tell♫

and fall in love with the one he loves,

♫Just hold each other♫

it will trigger.

♫Fold a feather of tenderness♫

♫Time flies by♫

Once it triggers

♫I'd rather not keep anything to myself♫

and he doesn't cut off his love in time,

♫Learn to be foolish and brave♫

♫It's hard to turn back♫

he'll die for sure.

♫You don't have to understand if you don't want to hear♫

♫Even if it's a dream♫

Then,

what if

the person doesn't fall in love?

♫Twist a wisp of dust and worry♫

He won't have to die,

right?

♫For whom to put it all together again♫

♫A few tears to revisit the same place♫

Yes.

♫I can't help but reach out♫

♫To the thoughts♫

♫Don't ask, don't tell♫

He won't die if he doesn't fall in love.

♫Just hold each other♫

♫Fold a feather of tenderness♫

♫Time flies by♫

♫I'd rather not keep anything to myself♫

Fine.

I don't understand

why someone would

exchange his smiles

♫Learn to be foolish and brave♫

for something called

♫It's hard to turn back♫

the Formula.

♫You don't have to understand if you don't want to hear♫

So I think

♫Even if it's a dream♫

if a person

is willing to exchange

something with his smile,

it must be for

someone

that's important to him.

[Prison of Demon Realm]

The Devil King has an order.

The culprit who brought the Phoenix

has turned himself in.

The Devil Clan will punish him someday.

What?

What do you mean?

It means

you can go back now.

Why did you come back?

Why can't I come back?

What kind of man am I

to let a woman go to jail for me?

You fell into the trap?

Men can't

be smart.

As the saying goes,

a devil takes responsibility for his actions.

I can't let you

go to jail for me.

Besides,

I've let you down

that I fell in love with someone else.

If you die for me,

how ashamed

would I be?

Do you want to die?

Besides,

have you ever

felt ashamed in front of me?

Enough.

Now that we're breaking up,

yet you still keep teasing me.

Just go.

Find an honest man and live a good life.

Who else in this world

is more honest than you?

You silly wolf.

Why did you come back and get yourself caught?

I want to skin you

and see what's in your brain

other than beauty.

Yes.

It's beauty.

It used to be your beauty.

Now,

it's the beauty of the Phoenix.

I've changed my mind.

I've fallen in love with someone else.

I don't believe a word you say.

Whatever.

Chicken,

please take her away.

She's so annoying.

Ou Ya.

Ou Ya.

You stupid wolf.

You bastard.

Yes.

You're right.

I am a bastard.

Are you satisfied?

Let's go.

Ou Ya.

You are

a bastard.

Lan Su.

Take good care of yourself

in the future.

Heavenly Emperor.

Where did he go?

I...

I know I was wrong.

What did you do?

I did something I shouldn't have done.

The Kitchen God in the East Kitchen Yi

has neglected her duty many times

and trespassed Demon Realm,

violating the laws of the Heaven Realm.

I will punish you

with three months of restriction.

Miss Yi.

Since ancient times, the Heaven and Demon are enemies.

Please say goodbye.

But Lord…

He said

you could have lived a better life

these days.

I want to see him again.

Don't worry.

The Lord is fine now.

Thank you

for your wine and food.

Got it.

By the way, Miss Yi.

Lord

asked me to give this to you.

Demonic Wood.

I forgot

my purpose for this trip.

But he still

remember it.

My good aunt.

You scared me.

This

is a unique wood

of Demons Ridge.

Of course.

You went to Demon Realm

to find it?

Yes.

If that's what you want,

why didn't you tell me earlier?

It's nothing.

I don't want to say it.

The Heavenly Emperor didn't wrong me anyway.

I went there secretly several times.

He locked me up.

I deserve it.

Wait.

You are lively and active.

Normally you can't be locked up in the Heavenly Court.

You'll always find a way to go out.

Why are you

suddenly willing to be grounded for three months

without even a statement?

It's probably because

I've learned a lot during my journey.

I also want time to calm down

and think about things.

Tell me then.

What have you thought about?

Aunt.

you look so beautiful when you smile.

Look at you.

Why are you

flattering me?

What's wrong with you?

Nothing.

I'm not flattering you.

Aunt,

have you seen the Heavenly Emperor smile?

Not much.

You rarely smile.

So is Yan Yue.

She doesn't smile much either.

Tell me.

Did you exchange something

with your smile?

Why would someone exchange something

with their smile?

Can't they?

Of course not.

I don't think so.

If

someone wants something,

this thing

should be something

that makes him happy.

But

if he gives up

his smile,

how can the thing

make him happy?

What are you

talking about?

Did you do

something strange

with some weird guy?

No, no.

I just heard something

and don't understand.

Aunt,

give this Demonic Wood to the Heavenly Emperor

and comb his hair

so that he can relax.

And leave me alone.

Some people

have smiles,

but never smile.

Some people want to laugh,

but can't smile anymore.

If only I could give you

half of my smile,

so that

I won't feel so sad

when you want to smile.

I've seen Yi.

She went to Demon Realm

not for fun,

but to find this

for you.

If it were in normal times,

Yi was being

commendable.

But now,

the war between Heaven and Demon

is about to start.

At this critical moment…

I understand.

You should

teach her a lesson.

The Phoenix's blood has been activated

for the first time.

If its blood is activated for the second time,

her power

will stand together with the High Immortals.

If it's activated for the third time,

then

she'll come out of Nirvana

and destroy the Three Realms,

all beings will suffer.

But now,

we don't have

many chances.

Your Majesty,

trust Yan Yue.

Yan Yue is my legitimate son,

the God of the Red Sun

I trust the most.

He is also the successor

of Heavenly Emperor.

But now,

I haven't heard from him.

Don't worry.

Yan Yue won't let us down.

I hope so.

Isn't this Prince Ou Ya of the Wolves?

Yes.

I heard he's arrogant enough

to try to get Phoenix Ashes

and violated the law,

angering Demon Realm.

Now,

he's being sent to Demon Realm to get punished.

I'm afraid

he won't be able to return.

Exactly.

What a pity for

his charming girl

Lan Su.

Yes.

Ye,

peel the corn

and then two petals of garlic for me.

Okay.

Mother.

Mother.

Mother, come and take a look.

A letter from my sister.

That crow sent it.

Crow. Crow.

I want to reply to my sister.

Keep your voice down, Ye.

Let's talk inside.

[Minister's Mansion]

Lady Lingyue.

The crow sent a letter to the Wei family.

Really?

Where is that crow now?

At Baishi Bridge.

I heard they were going to reply to Wei Zhi.

So I came back

immediately.

Lady Hua.

What are you doing here?

Miss.

I fell.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

How is the Numb guy?

Do the herbs work?

He could get out of bed last night.

So this morning

he went to the market.

Miss.

Here, take it and try it.

This is the honey I made myself.

It tastes good.

Thank you, Lady Hua.

You're welcome. I'm leaving.

Take care.

Lady Lingyue.

Lady Lingyue.

Lady Lingyue.

Take a look.

Sir,

can I borrow

your tools?

Please.

Thank you.

Lady Lingyue.

Wei Zhi.

You're awake.

It's really you.

Why am I here?

You fainted at the door.

I brought you in.

What happened?

Why are you

here?

Isn't this my letter?

Why do you have it?

It's a long story.

The Demon Clan robbed the academy that day.

you and Master went missing.

The imperial court

believed

the slander,

thought you were seducing the public

and wanted to put your mother and brother

into the imperial prison.

I tried my best.

So they didn't suffer.

The other day, the crow sent a letter.

The lady I sent to check the house

gave me the letter.

I followed the crow here

to inform you.

Unexpectedly,

I met a mountain demon on the way.

Luckily, I escaped.

Lady Lingyue, you've suffered a lot.

Wei Zhi.

There's no time to lose.

Go save your aunt and brother.

Father told me

tomorrow,

the court will…

What will they do?

They'll behead them.

I'll go with you.

You take a rest here.

I can deal with

those guards.

You're right.

I'll be a burden

to you now.

Good.

Leave a message to Master for me.

Master?

He's here too?

When he comes back,

tell him

that I went back to Yu Du

to celebrate my brother's birthday.

I'll be back soon.

Well.

Don't tell him

about my family.

He's sick now.

He can't bear to be worried.

Okay, be careful.

Don't worry.

This is...

Wei Zhi?

Could it be

that Master has fallen for Wei Zhi?

You are skillful.

You've learned it after observing it once.

If you live off this,

I'll have the biggest competitor.

[Capital Prison]

Wei Zhi.

Chen Wuchang?

Wei Ye

is locked up somewhere.

Your mother

has been sent to the execution ground in the eastern suburb.

What?

The Phoenix

took the bait.

How confident are you

in this hunting?

Fully.

You don't seem to be smart

to relieve the besieged by besieging the base of the besiegers.

Some chessmen

only work

when they're in the right place.

What are you going to do

after catching Phoenix this time?

I'll find out first.

But

she's a descendant of the Gu family.

But

Gu Chengwu

is dead.

You mean,

if she doesn't know

what happened to Ming Chengwu,

we can

win her over

and make her our man.

Even if she knows,

as long as she still wants

the position of Phoenix,

she must work with us.

Master.

You're back.

I'm glad to see you.

Where have you been?

Are you tired? Are you hungry?

I made you some soup.

I don't know if it tastes good.

Wei Lingyue.

Why are you here?

Where's Wei Zhi?

Wei Zhi said

she had something to do.

She'll be back soon.

She told you not to worry about her.

She has something to do?

Where did Wei Zhi go?

She said

she went to celebrate

her brother Wei Ye's birthday.

She told you not to worry about her.

Celebrate her brother's birthday?

She is

in the capital now?

Yes.

No way.

It's too dangerous

for her

to go to the mortal world like this.

I have to find her.

Master.

Master.

You don't have to go.

Why?

Wei Zhi told me

to take good care of you before she left.

How could I need you to take care of me?

She said during the battle at the academy,

Master was injured.

Now

I wonder if you're feeling better.

I'm fine.

Master.

Don't go.

She won't come back.

What do you mean?

Wei Zhi said

she didn't want to

stay here. It's torturing her.

She wants to return to the mortal world

and become the Phoenix

admired by everyone.

Impossible.

Nonsense.

The Formula.

Master, do you know

the Formula is the most insidious trick

in the world.

The one who fell into the Formula

must cut off his love

and forget the one he loves.

Otherwise,

he will die

in seven days.

Even High Immortal

has only

49 days.

Don't waste your energy.

It's useless.

Although the Formula is unsolved,

it's also the easiest to solve.

As long as you

forget the one you love.

Do you understand

Lingyue's feelings?

Forget her.

Come with me.

Wei Lingyue.

Before I met Wei Zhi,

I had no regrets

in the world.

If

I live on,

and deliberately forget

someone I love,

someone who has shown me

all the beautiful

and pleasant things in life,

what's the difference

if I was dead?

You won't understand.

It's too late.

She's already dead.

What did you say?

I said

your lover

already died.

Are you heartbroken?

Because you were hit by the Formula.

The more your heart breaks,

the more poisonous it is.

You're one step closer to death.

I should pity you,

but I can't.

Because now

the pain

that happens to you

used to be

cutting on me

like a blade.

Yan Yue.

It seems that I can't get your love

no matter what.

Okay.

Listen.

At noon today,

your lover

has been tricked by us

to Yu Du's execution ground in the eastern suburbs

to save her dying mother.

The trick has been set up.

Even if she is the Phoenix,

she won't be able to escape.

What should you do?

You came back too late.

If you could come back earlier,

or go now,

you can see her for the last time.

So what?

If she dies,

you will die too.

Wei Lingyue.
