♫If I shatter my dreams♫

♫I won't have to feel sorrow again♫

♫Fill the vacant soft spots with dust♫

♫If love isn't noble♫

♫What right does it have to make me face it with embarrassment♫

♫My destroyed heart is falling♫

♫Love has nothing to do with it♫

♫What trapped me was my unwillingness♫

♫Cute, it shouldn't be♫

♫It ended so badly♫

♫Who cannot be replaced♫

♫Loving oneself is the key to lifelong romance♫

♫The sky will still be blue♫

♫I'll still be brave next time♫

My friend!

What took you so long?

The antidote.

You really found it?

Is someone following you?

Follow me.

What happened?

Take the antidote now.

Here.

I'm done.

Tell me now.

Since I began my travels,

I've taken on the responsibility of slaying devils.

I have a deep grudge

with that Demon Clan.

Now, they've swarmed out

and vow to kill me.

My friend.

You're so formidable

that the Demon Clan is hunting you down.

Although you are powerful,

you're outnumbered.

I'm afraid they won't be easy to deal with.

I'm not worried about myself.

I'm afraid of getting you involved.

I'm afraid that when they see you with me,

they'll think we're working together

and that you'll be implicated.

So for the time being,

I'm afraid you'll have to

stay here despite the inconvenience.

But it's okay.

Once I've dealt with them,

you can leave at anytime.

My friend.

At such a time,

I won't leave even if you tell me to.

Just let them come.

I'd like to see

who's

asking for their death.

In that case,

you agree to stay here temporarily, right?

You don't have to be so polite.

You saved my life.

But...

I have a question,

that I don't know if I should ask.

Didn't you say that

there are few people who can hurt you in this world?

How could a powerful person like you

have left a trace

and let someone track you all the way here?

Or

did you intentionally let them discover you

to let these little demons come all the way here,

so that I will stay

and fight the enemy with you?

Am I right?

I...

No.

Anyway...

He is...

Did my sympathy ploy just now

fail?

Although your sympathy ploy

failed,

you knew...

to use a counterattack as defense,

which shows that you've grasped the essence.

It's nothing compared to

your self-produced act of the Hero Saving the Beauty ploy.

My...

My Hero Saving the Beauty ploy

wouldn't have worked

without your cooperation.

I wonder if

you'd still be willing to

act along with me?

Previously, you said this.

You said,

"Then, I, a humble lady,

will marry you

to repay you for saving my life."

I...

Then...

Then you...

What about me?

If you're going along with me,

aren't you curious

about my identity?

You...

You...

You...

When you were trying to lure me,

you didn't ask me about my identity either.

I knew my judgment is never wrong.

We are a perfect match indeed.

That's why we didn't care about anything else.

Yes.

I was the one who took a liking for

such a young and heavenly man

who came to save me like a hero.

I don't care about your identity

or your background.

I don't care about all that.

What I like

is...

how witty and playful you are.

I don't care if you're an ancient deity

or...

or a little Flower Spirit.

I just like you.

I just like you.

♫The moonlight must be you♫

♫Laying the groundwork for emotions♫

♫Soft but firm♫

♫The mist must be you♫

♫Soaking up my emotions♫

♫It's your sigh♫

♫But I can't explain these contradictory feelings♫

♫Actually yearning for me to cherish or delete them♫

♫You're just passing by♫

♫My heart ripples along, how fascinating♫

♫I want to ask, who has the maze to great love♫

♫Let me close my eyes♫

♫Then I can fly♫

♫Fly past you and intersect with you in an instant♫

♫Let my heart search and call out for you♫

♫Respond♫

♫I dare not ask, so let me be half awake♫

♫Because when I open my eyes♫

♫I decided in an instant♫

♫Compared to having you♫

♫When I'm thinking of you♫

♫It's more touching♫

♫I want to ask, who has the maze to great love♫

♫Let me close my eyes♫

♫Then I can fly♫

♫Fly past you and intersect with you in an instant♫

♫Let my heart search and call out for you♫

♫Respond♫

♫I dare not ask, so let me be half awake♫

♫Because when I open my eyes♫

♫I decided in an instant♫

♫Compared to having you♫

♫When I'm thinking of you♫

♫It's more touching♫

Not bad.

This sword technique that I taught you

has been refined for at least 500 years.

If you master this move,

I'll be able to

take our future sword fights more seriously.

You arrogant brat!

Take this!

Since I taught you this move,

how are you going to thank me?

Since you taught me swordsmanship,

I'll teach you something else.

It seems like there's something

you can't do in this world.

What's the point of learning this?

You can't fight or defend yourself with this.

What's the use?

My father

taught me how to play the Xun.

He said that

the sound of the Xun

is reminiscent of seeing an old friend.

Since my parents passed away,

whenever I miss them,

I'd play the Xun.

You have me by your side from now on.

I...

Who is the letter from?

It's from my brother.

What does it say?

Why does it seem like

you're unhappy?

He asked me to go home.

Isn't that a good thing?

Don't tell me

he's getting you home for a blind date?

See for yourself.

Visit the Moluo Empress?

Only the young masters of every clan

are able to receive an invitation at this time

to visit the Moluo Divine Clan.

Don't tell me

he's the Second Prince of the Qilin Divine Clan

whom the Protector has been nagging about?

What a coincidence.

Don't misunderstand.

I didn't.

Doesn't your brother's letter state that

he wants to head to the Moluo Divine Clan with you

to pay a visit to the Moluo Empress?

Don't worry.

I will never go to meet

that Moluo Empress.

But I heard

this Moluo Empress

is young, beautiful,

and of a respectable status.

If she likes you

and you become the emperor consort,

wouldn't that be a major upgrade of your status?

Can you really bear to let this opportunity

go to waste?

Don't think too much.

I have no feelings or whatsoever

towards the Moluo Empress.

I heard that

she ascended the throne when she was young.

Think about it.

She deals with those boring political affairs every day.

She must be a rigid, boring,

domineering,

cunning and unreasonable person.

I will never like such a person.

How...

How do you know that the Moluo Empress

is a rigid, boring,

domineering,

cunning and unreasonable person?

What if she's not that kind of person?

I swear

I will never go to meet the Moluo Empress.

I've always hated being bound since I was young.

I don't want to be some foolish emperor consort!

Are you dreaming of becoming the emperor consort?

Moluo Empress might not

even like you.

She doesn't like me,

and I don't like her.

It's just right. End of discussion.

Why...

are you angry?

Am I angry?

I'm not angry.

You're angry right now.

I'm not angry.

You are.

No!

No?

No?

I can still sense

the faint remnants of the divine power here.

The Empress must have used her divine power here.

In that case,

everyone, search immediately.

Don't miss any possible trace.

We must find Cang Hai as soon as possible.

Go and search ahead now.

Yes.

Your Highness.

I’d better have someone send you back to the palace.

As for the search of Empress,

don't worry and just leave it to me.

I know my own health

the best.

As long as Cang Hai isn't found,

I'll never be at peace.

Even if I go back,

I won't feel at ease either.

You don't have to dissuade me anymore.

Your Highness.

How am I rigid?

How am I boring?

How am I domineering?

How am I cunning and unreasonable?

I think that brat

is blind.

How about

I tell this silly boy the truth?

Actually,

I am the Moluo Empress.

Well...

Actually, I'm...

I've replied my brother's letter.

I told him

I met a woman I love.

I will never go to the Moluo Palace

to pay my respects to the Moluo Empress.

Actually, the main thing

is just that

I'm too handsome.

Tell me.

If that Moluo Empress

fell in love with me at first sight,

that would be the biggest problem.

You shameless brat.

I'll make you eat your words.

Do you know?

Traveling around the six realms

and slaying devils

has been my ambition since I was little.

But actually, in my heart,

I have another hidden wish.

In the vast world

with countless people,

I've been looking for someone.

Now,

I think I've found her.

So

you have this feeling too.

When I first met you,

I've already felt like

we've known each other for a long time.

I...

A meteor?

They say that if you make a wish to a meteor,

your wish will come true.

Tonight,

let's trust that myth for once.

Here.

In this lifetime...

I hope we will

be together at all times

and never be apart.

Then, in this lifetime,

let's never be separated ever.

Okay.

From now on,

for tens of thousands of years,

forever and ever,

no matter what happens,

we will always be together.

Look.

Doesn't that cloud

look like a crabapple flower?

Now that you mention it,

it does look quite like it.

I once heard of a legend in the mortal world,

that after a person dies,

they turn into a star in the sky.

I don't want that.

As a star,

I'd only be able to come out at night after hiding all day. How boring.

If it were up to me,

I would want to be a cloud in the sky after I die.

I can

go wherever I want freely.

What are you talking about?

You...

have me around.

Who'd dare to hurt you?

All right.

I misspoke.

Then, let me ask you a question.

No matter who I am

or what I become,

will you always love me?

I always keep my word.

Remember this.

Don't regret it.

I won't give you a chance to regret.

I have never

regretted anything I've done in my life.

You didn't close your eyes just now when you made the wish.

Others close their eyes.

Make the wish again.

Under the name of the Qilin Divine Clan,

I, Chu Kong of the Qilin Divine Clan,

summon the power of the Star of War's primordial spirit

to protect the one I love.

♫You understand my love♫

♫Old stories are still spreading♫

♫The cycle of cause and effect has long been recorded♫

♫The red threads of fate intertwine♫

♫They brought us together and pulled us apart♫

♫My heart beat fast when I woke up from the dream♫

♫You were whispering in my ear♫

♫Our story didn't end in the past life♫

♫Let's start over♫

In this lifetime,

♫The joy is engraved in my mind♫

I will never turn my back on you.

♫Through the reincarnation of several lifetimes♫

♫I'll always be with you through thick and thin♫

♫Reunion is not a coincidence♫

♫It's my courage to come for you♫

♫You understand my love♫

♫I lived again and again just for you♫

♫I'm not afraid of hardships♫

♫I'm just afraid of losing you in the crowds♫

♫I don't care if this is right or wrong♫

♫You're the only answer I want♫

♫They say it's not worth it♫

♫But for love I'll do everything♫

♫For love♫

♫For love♫

Why is Father so biased?

I am the eldest son.

I should be the one deserving of the marriage with the Moluo Empress.

But he never once considered me.

Brother?

Why are you here?

How did you find me?

You brat.

I finally found you.

Did you refuse to go back

because

of this lady beside you?

Brother.

This is Xiaotang.

Xiaotang.

This is the elder brother I told you about.

Hello, Brother.

You two haven't seen each other for a long time.

You must have a lot to talk about.

I won't disturb you.

Then don't stand there, Brother.

Excuse me.

Let's go.

Go!

You brat.

Brother.

I've already told you in the letter that

Xiaotang and I have made our vows to be faithful to each other forever.

Your marriage

is a top priority of our Qilin Divine Clan.

How can you be so flippant about it?

The Moluo Empress is about your age.

She is the most respectable woman

in the six realms.

If you can marry her...

I can't hear you.

I can't hear you.

What marriage?

Didn't I make myself clear?

Reject it for me.

I will never go.

Stop messing around.

You are the future leader of the Qilin Divine Clan.

Your marriage is not up to you alone.

Your marriage with the Moluo Empress

is one of your responsibilities.

What clan leader?

Since ancient times, seniority has been valued.

Even if the marriage really has to happen,

you should be the one to do it.

I am older than you,

but you're a born Golden Qilin

with exceptional qualifications.

I believe

you will definitely lead the Qilin Divine Clan to glory.

I'm also willing to support you.

Forget it.

I've never wanted that since I was a kid.

I hate complicated political affairs the most.

Besides,

as a Golden Qilin,

since I'm already engaged to Xiaotang,

as a member of the Qilin Divine Clan,

I can't possible do something treacherous.

But it's reasonable that you got engaged

in private?

I...

Have you ever thought about

how you're going to explain this to Father and Mother?

And you don't know the background

of that woman.

If you're not clear of that,

how do you know she's a worthy match for you?

I...

She's my wife.

It's fine as long as I like her.

If Father and Mother don't like her,

then I will

live in this mountain with her.

Who cares about her background?

Anyway, in this lifetime,

I've set my mind on her.

You're impossible.

I told you

I'll go back after I'm done with my affairs here.

What are you worried about?

It's not that we're worried.

But you said

that friend saved your life.

Then, he's the great benefactor of the Moluo Divine Clan.

We should thank him in person.

And you.

You are so weak.

Go back now.

Although I'm in poor health,

I'm not that weak yet.

You can rest assured.

Yes.

Since you left,

I’ve been anxious

all the time.

Also, Jin Lian and Jin Luo

have been looking forward to your return.

If you don't let me follow you,

I'll really...

All right.

Xiaotang.

What's going on?

Who are you?

How dare you make a scene in my territory!

Xiaotang.

Is this

the friend you mentioned?

Yes.

Who are they?

He's Uncle Jin.

He's my butler.

He's Xiu Ming,

my brother.

He's very close to me.

Your brother?

Wait...

That's not right.

Don't you not have siblings?

This...

I'm not Xiaotang's brother.

Xiaotang and I grew up together.

Thank you

for taking care of Xiaotang during this time.

Aren't you going to introduce me to them?

I forgot to introduce.

This is my life savior,

Chu Kong.

And fiancé.

Please pardon me.

Marriage

is decided by a family's elders.

I'm afraid one-sided empty words from you

don't count.

Whether that counts is between us.

Today,

if you're here as her family,

I'll naturally welcome you.

Coincidentally, my brother is also here.

Consider it

as a family meeting of the in-laws.

But if you have any other ideas,

then don't blame me for being rude.

All right.

Yes.

Chu Kong and I

have been engaged.

How can your marriage be decided so hastily?

Why don't we go back and discuss it again?

Jin Lian and Jin Luo

have been looking forward to your return.

Yes.

Jin Lian and Jin Luo's health

can't be maintained without Uncle Jin.

But Uncle Jin was worried about

you being alone outside.

It left him in a dilemma.

Even if it's just for Jin Lian and Jin Luo's health,

you should go back as soon as possible.

If it's really necessary,

I can go back with you.

You are the one who volunteered.

I...

Do you have guests?

Brother.

Who are they?

They are Xiaotang's family.

My younger brother, Chu Kong,

and Miss Xiaotang fell in love with each other.

They are a perfect match.

If they can get married,

it would be a beautiful and praiseworthy story.

From now on, we are family.

Don't just stand around here.

Come in and have a seat.

Let's go.

Then,

we'll...

take on the offer.

Is he

really the one you want to entrust your life to?

Since I met him,

I realized

how it felt

to like someone.

The time I've spent with him

has been the happiest time in my life.

But

you've only known each other for a short time.

Maybe

these are just temporary feelings of novelty.

Maybe, after a while,

you'd get tired of this place

and would want to...

I can't be wrong.

Just like how I feel about you,

which is the feelings of kinship between friends that grew up together.

To me,

you're family and one of the most important people.

But he...

is different.

I knew you were here.

Since you were young,

whenever you were unhappy,

you liked to be alone.

But in the blink of an eye,

you've grown up

and have become independent.

You even dare to decide on

your own marriage.

Brother.

Are you really sure about Miss Xiaotang?

Of course.

Even if her identity is unknown,

you'll still only marry her?

Since you said so,

as your brother,

if I don't help you,

how am I different from those jerks

who deliberately break up other lovers?

Brother.

Do you mean...

I will plead with Father and Mother

on your behalf.

But you have to promise me one thing.

Go ahead.

I'll promise you anything.

Come with me to the Moluo Palace

to pay your respects to the Moluo Empress.

Brother.

We've already talked about that.

I'm not going.

I'm not asking you to go to the Moluo Palace to get married.

But

since the Moluo Divine Clan

has already sent an invitation to the Qilin Divine Clan,

we have to be accountable for it.

Otherwise,

if enmity forms between the two clans

and the blame has to be accounted for,

it'll not be a responsibility that you and I can bear.

Don't worry.

When we get to the Moluo Palace,

act cautiously,

and I'll

handle everything for you.

But if

you aren't even willing to go,

Father will realize that

I'm protecting you in secret.

How can I explain

to Father and Mother then?

Fine.

For this matter, I...

I have to discuss it with Xiaotang.

I didn't expect

the great and fearless

Second Prince of the Qilin Divine Clan...

to be a henpecked husband.

Go to s-s-sleep.

Go. Go.

Well...

Xiu Ming.

I've never felt this way before.

Since

you like him so much,

for now,

let's bring him back to the Moluo Palace.

But whether he's qualified to be your emperor consort

will be decided upon further consideration.

I have my own plans.

Go back and rest first.

I'll go and be right back...

I...

-I have something to tell you. -I have something to tell you.

You go first.

I may have to pay a visit to the Moluo Palace.

But don't worry.

I'm just accompanying my brother as a mere formality.

I won't let the Moluo Empress

take a liking to me.

I trust you.

It's just right.

I have to go home with Uncle Jin too.

It's been a while since I've been out.

I can't always let my family worry about me.

Besides, I have to inform

my family back home about our marriage.

After I return from the Moluo Palace,

I'll officially visit your family to make a marriage proposal.

Where do you live?

After I go home

and tell my family about our marriage,

I'll contact you again.

By then,

you can visit my family to make a marriage proposal.

Okay.

Rest early then.

What's wrong?

After this parting,

I don't know how long it'd be before we can see each other again.

I can't perceive

any signs of sadness on your face.

Maybe it won't be long

before we can meet again.

What are you doing?

All right.

Don't think too much.

Go back and rest.

Okay.

Go to bed early.

You too.

We're about to present ourselves before the Empress.

When we enter the main hall later,

don't gaze around.

Remember that.

Got it.

The young masters of the Qilin Divine Clan, please present yourselves.

Greetings, Your Majesty.

Rise.
