[Episode 49]

Father.

It's your fault. You don't listen to me.

Let's be father and daughter again in the next lifetime.

Father!

Chen Changsheng! Take her away!

Let's go! Let's go!

Father! Father!

- Father! \N - Let's go!

Father!

Hurry up and leave!

- Leave! \N - Hurry and leave!

Father!

Quickly leave!

- Let's go! \N - Hurry and leave!

- Father! \N - Rong'er!

Father!

- Father! \N - Let's go!

No understanding of the current state. What a pity.

Hurry!

Wait a moment.

- Rong'er. \N - Because of me, my father--

I know. He became a hero because of you.

He's a wonderful father.

As a daughter, for such a long time,

I've always told myself

that my responsibility was

to save everyone in the world.

But I've never fulfilled my filial piety to my father even for a day.

But I've never fulfilled my filial piety to my father even for a day.

Now, I don't have the chance anymore.

Idiots! Why are you walking so slowly?

- Hurry and search for me! \N - Yes!

They're preparing to search Guojiao Academy.

The road to the Cold Pond has been sealed by Her Majesty.

I have an idea. Let's hide in the Cold Pond.

- Let's go down. \N - Yes.

I'll lead the way.

Little Black Dragon!

What's wrong with you?

Too much of my nascent soul has been absorbed by the Star Formation.

I can't survive much longer.

We'll think of a way to save you. Don't give up.

Give up? I've lived for several hundred years.

Every day, I hoped that the next day

would be the day I would regain my freedom.

Maybe that's an unattainable dream.

But when I think about how that witch is about to die,

I feel extremely happy.

Are you talking about Her Majesty?

What are you saying?

Mo Yu.

Your Majesty, you've woken up.

You're crying.

From your mother's time,

every Lady Official I've had didn't believe in tears.

We cannot let the whole court

see our weaknesses.

Do you know of its power?

Youyi Hairpin is Your Majesty's self-defense treasure.

It's not just my self-defense treasure.

Back in the day,

it was a token of love that the Emperor Taizong gave to me.

It carries my most beautiful memories in this life time.

It carries my most beautiful memories in this life time.

I've always been thinking: If I had a daughter,

one day if she were to get married,

I will pass this down to her for her dowry.

Pity, I don't have this luck.

Now, I'm going to pass this hairpin to you.

Now, I'm going to pass this hairpin to you.

Your Majesty, you must not!

This Youyi Hairpin not only carries your memories, but is also your self-defense treasure.

I am only an insignificant Lady Official.

How am I qualified to accept such a precious gift?

You are loyal, to me and the Zhou Empire.

Only you have the qualification.

Your Majesty, how can I deserve

to be treated so highly?

Your Majesty, please reconsider.

The hairpin not only serves as a weapon,

but it also carries my energy and will.

You can also use it to activate the Star Formation.

To let you take this responsibility,

I know I am giving you trouble.

But now, both Changsheng and Yourong are in imminent danger.

The High Priest is starting a rebellion.

And the Demon Clan eyes my empire ambitiously.

I am now in such a bad physical condition.

After thinking it over again and again,

this responsibility can only be entrusted to you.

Your Majesty is just unwell temporarily.

You will definitely recover!

You look exactly like your mother.

Do you remember her appearance?

Leave the Capital, as far as possible.

Don't ever come back again.

That year your mother

put you aside in order to save Changsheng.

I still remember you were so little at that time.

It was the time you needed a mother the most,

but you never saw her again.

When other children were playing around happily,

you could only cultivate every day.

When other children were around their parents enjoying their time together,

you could only study hard.

So your fate,

is destined to be different from other children.

It was all my fault.

It was me who took your happiness away.

No.

Your Majesty, for me to be able to be with you for so many years,

it is my boast and pride.

Being with Your Majesty makes me very happy.

So,

this is a gift.

It is also a responsibility.

Passing it on to you will let me feel relieved.

Stop pushing it away.

Accept it.

Your Holiness.

Miss Mo.

Why has Your Holiness suddenly paid a visit?

I came to visit Her Majesty.

Didn't you promise to give three days?

I promised that indeed.

But since I am now in control,

whether I keep it or not does not matter.

For what reason does Your Holiness not stick to promises.

A long delay may cause trouble.

Your Majesty always says, humans should practice self-cultivation more,

less trickery, thus you can sleep well.

What makes Miss Mo so eloquent today?

Your Holiness comes to visit this time.

I assume that there is something you are determined to get.

Miss Mo is very smart. If you are willing to work for me...

Your Majesty is still in position.

We will know the result if we go inside to take a look.

What if I won't allow it?

I don't want to kill you.

Taking the next step, you will be risking at offending Her Majesty.

Your Majesty has passed you her Youyi Hairpin.

Apparently she really trusts Miss Mo.

I really don't want to kill you.

I will never let you hurt Her Majesty.

You still came after all.

I can't help but come.

You must have been waiting for this day for a long time, right?

Yes.

For so many years,

what kind of grudge do you have that you can't let go of?

Although when I am thinking about passing you this throne, you can't even wait.

The Zhou Empire cannot be ruled by you, Tianhai Youxue.

Why not?

Who fought against the Demon Clan with the Star Formation?

Who kept the Empire stable?

It's me. In what way I can't subdue the nation?

You indeed devoted a lot.

But this Empire belongs to Emperor Taizong, not you.

Is this why you deliberately want to kill me?

This Empire wasn't won by you.

It was Emperor Taizong and I.

We fought bloody battles,

with the result of this Empire's prosperity.

Therefore, the Empire should belong to me.

So,

this is my biggest mistake.

Rebel, go die!

I once said, I don't want to kill you.

Do you know why?

Because in the world,

you no longer can find such a smart and reliable person to rely on.

Moreover, she has been my favorite for many years.

There must be too many authorities in her hands, that even you and I cannot control.

Your Majesty.

Don't worry. I won't commit regicide.

At least I won't now. Do you know why?

What other sinister plans do you have?

Because I want you to see, as from that second when Emperor Taizong died,

the country that he had lost, today, I'll snatch it back from you.

I want you to witness the moment I ascend the throne,

for you to understand that you as a woman, can never govern the empire forever.

Presumptuous traitor!

Your Majesty...

Yourong's injuries still require a few days of rest.

I'll count on you for taking care of her.

Her Majesty is still within the High Priest's control.

Her safety is at stake.

I cannot afford to wait any longer.

For that old witch, are you going to risk your own life?

Her Majesty and the Zhou Empire's fate are closely related.

- I can't ignore it. \N - You!

Changsheng.

It is said, this well leads straight into the Cold Pond.

Out of the whole capital, this is the only place left unsearched. Right?

- Official, then should we... \N - We'll head down to check.

Only, we're afraid that the vicious dragon will kill us all.

You can head down to check? Idiot.

The mouth of the well is so small.

If we go in, what will happen if it's an ambush?

Even if there isn't that vicious dragon,

none of us can be their opponent.

Come. Hang Xu Weixing's corpse at the city gate for it to be exposed for three days.

Have Madam Xu to kneel there.

By then, Miss Saintess,

would've appeared.

Husband!

Husband!

Husband! You died in such a cruel way.

Husband!

Husband!

Everyone watch closely!

Today, Xu Yourong will definitely come and steal the corpse.

Husband!

Let's go!

The High Priest is catching people everywhere. And Xu Weixing...

I didn't expect a famous and popular general was actually exposed as a corpse to the public.

Even his wife was caught as well.

Little Black Dragon!

What? She'll know about it sooner or later.

Stupid phoenix! You still have the mood to meditate.

Xu Weixing, he's your biological father!

If it were me, I'd be rushing out and killing all those people.

Stop saying it!

See for yourself, she doesn't even have a trace of humanity.

Do you just like this type of cold woman?

Little Dragon, Yourong is for the whole situation. I know how pained she is.

For the whole situation?

I see her as the type of steel-hearted women!

You're going way too far.

I... You are actually siding with her?

Fine! Since I'm not pleasing to your eyes, I'll leave!

I'm not done talking!

Qiushan Jun has stolen Xu Weixing's corpse, and even hurt Zhou Tong.

What did you say?

I said, Qiushan Jun has stolen Xu Weixing's corpse!

Senior Brother Qiushan.

How could it be him?

Come. Come.

Why are you here?

Qiushan Jun saved Madam Xu.

I think they're situated at a safe place.

Maybe, he has finally thought clearly about all his wrong-doings and wishes to repent.

Hopefully he will repent this time.

We must now find a safe place to hide, so...

The most dangerous place is the safest place.

So the only place that no one is searching at should be...

Li Palace.

Ying Xingdao.

I just... had a dream about you.

You dreamed about me?

Yes, I dreamed about you... and Taizong.

We weren't old.

We were all very young.

What's the point of having this type of dream?

It's all in the past.

Ying Xingdao, I'm about to die.

I dreamed of Taizong.

This must be because he misses me and he is calling me,

calling me... to go to keep him company quickly.

I also miss him very much.

You are right.

You and Taizong established Zhou Empire together.

You know him the best.

I'm dying.

I don't want to die

such an indecent, miserable death.

Your life channel was actually destroyed?!

If you could have come to this realization earlier, you wouldn't be in today's situation.

I miss how we used to be back then.

You, Taizong and I never had any enmity among us.

We thought we could share everything that we had.

We thought we could share everything that we had.

We thought we could share everything that we had.

When Taizong passed away, I held our child.

At that time, I felt like it was the end of the world.

But at that time, you never thought about me.

I did think of you.

But you didn't step forward after all.

At such a critical moment, I really didn't have any other options.

I didn't expect that once the Star Formation was activated,

my life would never be the same as before.

I could only pray that destiny wouldn't be so hard on a woman.

But there was no use doing that.

I had nowhere to retreat.

In the end, I could only forget that I'm a woman and gather all my courage.

I knew that I could not let the Demon Clan take away Taizong's empire.

It should have been mine!

If...

you wanted it so much,

why didn't you step forward at that time or tell me?

I...

I really didn't have any other choice.

Why am I so cold?

I know I am going to reunite with Taizong soon.

You are the Great Empress Tianhai, one of the Saints in this world.

What's the use of that?

Humans cannot go against their destiny after all.

Ever since I ascended the throne, I relied heavily on you.

After all, we defended the empire together with our lives.

Now, I only hope I can die in peace, and reunite with Taizong among the stars.

Can't you even wait for a few more days?

Then, I'll give you a few more days.

Besides Mo Yu by my side,

I don't even have anyone to talk to.

Who would have known that being the empress was such a lonely task.

I lost my husband. I lost my child.

I'm too tired. I can't keep going anymore.

I have apprehended the secret of the star map.

We have to make the best use of our time and help Her Majesty to regain some strength.

Mother, hold on.

Mother, we will definitely save you from death!

We have succeeded. We have succeeded.

Mother.

Thanks to your help this time. Otherwise...

Being able to help Mother,

I feel that what I have owed you since the past has been repaid in full.

God is treating me really well.

I'm very satisfied now.

All the hardship you have been through are like knife marks,

as if each of them were engraved in my heart.

I won't let you suffer any hardship anymore.

I'm willing to give up anything for you.

Mother.

You woke up.

Qiushan Jun, tell me if this dream is true or not.

What's your dream about?

I dreamed we met but we didn't know each other. We became strangers.

You didn't know me at all.

In this world, who aren't strangers to whom?

No matter what kind of life you choose, I will always be with you.

We will never become strangers.

Based on the current situation, no matter what,

I will need to fight with Yin Xingdao once and for all.

We will get back what you have lost.

What I worry about the most now is the Star Formation.

Once he is in control of the Star Formation, he will gain incredible power.

At that time, no one can go against him.

There is.

Who?

Zhou Dufu.

Zhou Dufu is already dead.

But who has seen it?

You mean?

A deity is between the heavens and the earth, not in the life wheel.

Who can distinguish whether that kind of realm is actually life or death?

If it is really like that, the people in this world to him are like ants.

How will he help for changing the destinies of ants?

He won't. I can.

- You? \N - Yes.

Your realm is not enough.

But I need to do it.

What secret techniques had Zhou Dufu passed down to you?

I need to apprehend Heavenly Scrolls Tomb again.

After all, Senior Zhou Dufu also studied them and apprehended the way.

He also gave me the Star Map.

I'm sure it can oppose the High Priest's Star Formation.

You cannot. Right now we haven't recovered.

We shouldn't act recklessly.

And he promised me, giving me some time to prepare for my death.

- We... \N - We have no time.

When the High Priest takes the entire control of the Imperial Court,

when the opposing voices against him are all eliminated, we will have even less hope.

Mother,

believe me.

If it were before, I would definitely not let you go.

Maybe I'm old.

Maybe I should really reflect, whether in these years

I have really been authoritative.

You're right, too.

After all, it is you youngster's world.

All the youngsters are vigorous and act bravely.

No one stopped me when I was young.

What kind of reason do I have...

to stop you guys?

Mother.

They want to go to the Heavenly Scrolls Tomb?

Is your information accurate?

Chen Changsheng and Her Majesty secretly met in a vihara and talked about this.

It's just that I can't guess what the purpose is for going to the Heavenly Scrolls Tomb.

No matter what he does,

I must pretend to be tricked by him.

What you mean is?

Why do you think why I let her go?

It's to get Chen Changsheng into our trap.

I will kill her in the Heavenly Scrolls Tomb.

Your Holiness has so much assurance.

Because she is not only an Empress, but also a woman.

Most importantly, she is also a mother.

Do you get it now?

Your Holiness is brilliant and brave.

It's my fault for being so weak.

I really want to see Changsheng immediately.

Your teacher wanders around outside so much but I don't see you missing me as much.

- That's different. \N - Is he your relative and I'm not?

But Teacher, didn't you say Changsheng does not have long to live?

Teacher cannot die, right?

No, Teacher you are making fun of me again.

Changsheng's twentieth birthday is almost here.

I don't know...

Teacher, you said we were both adopted.

How do you know Changsheng's birthday?

Your teacher has miraculous foresight. Having miraculous foresight will...

Oh, forget it. I'm a little bit tired.

Let's find a tea shack to rest.

All right.

The High Priest? Why is he here?

I want to see what kind of plan he has.

I've received accurate reports.

My Senior Brother, Shang Xingzhou, is bringing his student Yuren, to the Heavenly Scrolls Tomb.

What are they here for?

Even though we are from the same academy, we are not on the same side.

This Senior Brother of mine cannot be kept.

Does Your Holiness hope this teacher and student will disappear from this world?

You're right. I have asked three mighty generals to ambush them at the city gate.

If they dare to enter the capitial, they will definitely fall into this trap.

With Senior Brother Shang Xingzhou's cultivation stage, it should be fine for him.

But he will not expect...

Your Holiness still had someone else.

One that can make Shang Xingzhou lose his life is no one else, but his precious student.

Once engaged in fight, he will be distracted, and definitely die.

His student does not have a simple upbringing.

Shang Xingzhou can even give up his life for him.

Turns out this is the biggest weakness of Shang Xingzhou.

Your Holiness is indeed brilliant.

My plain is to trouble General Han Qing to guard this place.

If Senior Brother can really pass the life-death gate in the capital,

then, Genera Han Qing, it will be you who has to take action.

Don't worry, Your Holiness. If he can come...

If he can come, his nascent soul will be injured, and will be unable to withstand a single blow.

I will not let Your Holiness down.

Then we set an agreement. After the matter is complete, there will be rewards. Goodbye.

Take care, Your Holiness.

Your Teacher and Senior Brother are already at the capital.

Never would of thought the High Priest is now heartless, even wants to kill his own senior.

Heavenly Scrolls Tombs are right here.

My coming to apprehension is not in a hurry.

But I can't bear to watch my senior brother and teacher fall into the trap.

Senior Brother Yuren is so kind. How can the High Priest be able to attack?

You discovered no one?

Where exactly are they? Oh no!

He lures us away from the Heavenly Scrolls Tomb.

Why do they trick us to leave? Could it be?

Must be Her Majesty will be worried about us.

She is in danger now.

Your Majesty is in such a relaxed mood.

Before was indeed for delaying time, showing me your weakness.

Excuse me.

What if I don't excuse you?

The road is very wide.

It'll work that we both walk our own ways separately.

All of the world belongs to the king.

When has Your Majesty changed your attitude, able to take the same road as others?

Some of the routes cannot be chosen.

I wouldn't have picked this route.

Your Majesty, do you still think the world is still yours?

It's not mine,

then does that mean it's yours?

Whom it belongs to doesn't depend on who can brag the most but who's more powerful.

Here is the Heavenly Scrolls Tomb, my place.

You shouldn't have picked here.

You believe you are very powerful and I don't even have a chance against you,

but the choices you made before gave you too many consequences.

Your level of power has started to go down.

You're no longer invincible.

You are indeed very powerful, but there is only one of you.

Han Qing, you are the number one general of Zhou Empire.

Are you sure you'll stand on Her Majesty's side?

What do you think?

Her Majesty even gifted you the Frosted Spear, number one on the Mighty Weapons Roll.

She must see you as an importance. Okay. Attack!

Now, who is the one alone?

Han Qing, why?

This is the Spear Emperor Taizong left.

Thank you for giving it to me.

Even though you are the Crown Prince of the Demon Clan, not of our Human Clan,

in my heart, you valued your relationship, loyalty and words more than anyone else.
