[Fighter of the Destiny]

[Episode 43]

We are getting close to our big success.

We don't need to take unnecessary risks at this point.

Leader, you're very intelligent.

You have made a fool out of Tianhai Chengwu this time.

Tianhai Youxue's foundation was easily destroyed.

Unfortunately, the assassination failed this time.

If Chen Changsheng didn't interfere, she might have been killed.

You have no idea how powerful Her Majesty is.

Even if Chen Changsheng and Xu Yourong didn't save her,

by the Youyi Hair Clasp,

she couldn't have been killed by Tianhai Chengwu anyway.

Leader has considered all possibilities.

Of course, none of us are able to compare with you.

The only way to kill Her Majesty is to use the Star Formation.

And Chen Changsheng is the key for it.

The closer he is to the Star Formation,

the closer we get to our success.

Timing and Subtitles brought to you by the Subbers of the Destiny @ Viki

Oh no, the Star Formation is unstable.

Announce Her Majesty's oral orders.

Her Majesty doesn't feel well.

Today's morning meeting will be led by the High Priest.

That is all.

What is going on?

- Will something go back after we're dismissed? \N - Right.

Quiet! Since Her Majesty doesn't feel well,

we, as ministers, should share concerns for Her Majesty!

By all means, we must not neglect national business.

Right. What he said is correct.

Your Majesty.

Between destiny stars and cultivators, there is an invisible road.

That road...

is destiny.

My Star Formation, holds control of every destiny in the world.

Unfortunately my understanding is far from enough!

But it is only a Star Formation, is it not?

Yes.

It is a Star Formation.

But it is more than that.

There are so many things mixed in it.

There are so many lives entering into its body.

When the deep night comes,

I seem to feel as if it's alive.

It is talking to me and calling me

to be with it

as one entity.

Last night, I felt its agitation.

You have felt it?

Yes.

You were born for the Star Formation.

It knows that you'll be able to hear its calling.

But I don't think the same way.

What?

I don't think I was born for the Star Formation.

My life may be fragile.

I may have suffered a lot pain and struggles.

But I also have experienced so many wonderful things

and met a lot of nice people.

What are you trying to say?

They are the most beautiful existence in my life.

If you said my life only had one purpose,

that would be to live on this earth to meet them

and reunite with them.

Therefore, I am not attracted to the Star Formation.

No matter how strong it is, it's still only a tool.

We can use it but not rely on it.

Let alone be a slave to it.

Are you saying... that I've become its slave?

What do you think then, Your Majesty?

You have some guts.

At that time, for fighting against the Demon Clan, thousands and millions of warriors

sacrificed themselves.

It is because of the Star Formation,

more innocent people have survived.

You tell me, isn't the Star Formation the ace of the empire?

Isn't it the sacred object that we should cherish?

Its true. It has been protecting the Zhou Empire.

But it's also currently changing.

It's becoming even more chaotic, harder to control.

In my body, there's energy from it.

I can feel its agitation.

It's like human kind; of course, it needs more energy.

Today's Star Formation is just like a beast in a cage;

longing for blood and prepared to rush out and hurt people anytime.

Your Majesty, you have been protecting the Star Formation all these years.

You should be able to feel that it does influence you, right?

influence me?

What can it influence from me?

Star Formation is my intimate,

my most reliable source of energy.

You mustn't slander it!

So this is the power of Star Formation,

It can let the holder of country being controlled unconsciously by it

and become it's slave.

That nonsense is rubbish!

How can I be controlled by it?!

If not, please touch my finger.

What's wrong with me?

This Star Formation has engulfed so many lives.

It's becoming more and more ruthless and cruel.

If it continues in this way, it will probably become a more dangerous being than the Demon Clan.

Then what do you think I should do?

It's very simple.

Stop relying on it, and keep your distance from it.

This is what Yourong told you, right?

For benefits of the majority, sacrificing the minority, it's a natural thing.

Just like when deer cross the river,

there must be a minority of them volunteering themselves into the river to be stepping stones.

For the continuation of the majority, they need to sacrifice themselves.

They don't have any other choice.

But...

What's wrong?

I'm fine.

Just a little dizzy.

You go and rest.

I'll visit you in a little while.

Then I'll leave first.

Your Majesty,

you tell me. What I should do?

I... don't dare to say.

You are always full of integrity.

and serve me with loyalty. It's fine to speak up.

I think... Your Majesty should follow your heart.

My heart?

Yes.

Your Majesty, do you want to gain the world

or the Crown Prince the most?

Do you prefer to be Your Majesty at the most high,

or to be a mother of a child?

Of course, I am a mother.

But prior to this, I should be

and I must be the Greatest Empress for the world.

What are you thinking?

I am thinking...

for Chen Changsheng, the one who he really wants to see is his mother.

Rong'er

Changsheng.

You're back.

I thought you would stay at the palace.

The Imperial palace is too strict and there are rules everywhere.

I am more comfortable here.

How are you? Are you feeling better?

Much better. Her Majesty helped me.

I will be cured soon.

Really?

Silly, of course, that's false.

Why do you want to joke around with this matter?

Isn't this way nice?

If one can still joke around when he's dying of a terminal illness,

it means he is living a happy life.

Are you boasting?

Yes.

I just want you to know.

You didn't love the wrong person.

Your lover is still smiling when confronting death.

Let's not talk about this.

Right, I went to see the Star Formation today.

Just like what you said, Her Majesty has been influenced indeed.

And it's really severe.

Is there any way for her to recover?

If using the Star Map, then maybe.

But I don't have enough confidence.

But your illness...

How about this? I'll go instead.

Although my comprehension of the Star Map is not as deep as yours.

We don't have time.

The Demon Clan will soon attack south.

At that time, the Human Clan will face a life and death battle.

But this is not your responsibility only.

You have done so much for everyone.

Why can't you let me do something for you?

Everyone has their own mission.

Helping Her Majesty get rid of the Star Formation is my mission.

It can only accomplished by me.

If one day, I am dying.

I believe you will surely come to save me.

Right?

If that day does come,

even if you end up in the sea of stars, I will personally drag you back to the human world.

You're awake?

You are very ill.

And you also feel quite disturbed.

Drinking this medicine will make you feel better.

Where is this place?

Xuelao City. This is my room.

Xuelao City?

I am in the Demon Clan territory.

You actually brought me to the Demon Clan?!

From this day, you and I are members of the Demon Clan.

You should take it as a great honor.

Honor?

What honor do I have here!

My honor belongs to Qiushan Jun in the Human Clan.

Who am I here!

In the Demon clan, I am nothing but a traitor living a shameful life.

I have no honor,

but shame only!

A kind of shame that can only be washed away by blood!

Give it back!

Dying is the easiest thing in the world.

Living is most diffcult.

You can chose to die at any time.

Once you die, you are freed from bearing anything

and spared from all judgement.

If you want to die, I'll die with you.

Stop!

I know you can't bear to lose me.

That is my man.

Welcome to the Demon Clan.

Can you walk more slowly?

It's so hot.

It's too hot.

I say, you act mysteriously. Where are you taking me?

Why do you talk so much?

You will know once we arrive.

Now I can't even ask?

How can one feel the same on the way to the execution ground and to the newlyweds room?

I didn't mean to say the "newlyweds room."

Not "newlyweds room."

What are you doing? Work faster.

That's you.

Hurry. Over there. Hurry.

Catch up.

Stop here.

What are you doing?

Greeting, Official.

Bring Tang Qiu the Imperial criminal here. I have something to ask him.

Yes.

Tang Qiu. Come here!

Okay.

Faster!

It's none of your business. Go work. Hurry.

Official. My Official. What can I help you with?

This official wants to ask you something.

What? Okay.

Faster. Faster. What are you all doing?

Why do you want to see me, Official?

Father.

Father.

You have suffered this time.

I haven't come to see you is because I fear...

Don't come.

I'm an Imperial criminal.

If you visit me, you will get in trouble.

You have been expelled from the Tang family.

You have no relationship with us.

You can definitely achieve something of your own and reestablish us, the Tang family.

Stand up.

Father.

Don't worry.

I will definitely rebuild the Tang family and make it more prosperous.

Son, as long as you have such ambition, I shall be relived.

A man can have no achievement, but he must have ambition.

You have been a willful boy since you're little.

I've always been worried about you.

Seeing my son like this,

I am really at ease.

You've suffered a lot.

Father, don't worry. I will surely get you out.

You must not do that.

Son, I did break the law.

It's very fair that one has to be punished for his mistake.

You must not learn from me.

Don't do the wrong things in order to make money.

You must not do that.

I won't.

Father, actually, I don't have much interest in making money.

I don't really want to handle anything.

I've only focused on spending money because I don't want to be enslaved by money.

Now being completely poor makes me feel relieved.

Father, don't worry.

I will definitely reestablish the Tang family.

I promise I'll surely be honest and righteous and not do any wrong things.

Good. Good.

Your doing this way makes me feel at ease.

Miss Mo.

My son is not mature enough.

He's brought you a lot of trouble.

Can you please take care of my son?

Thank you!

Uncle, please get up.

Don't worry, I will surely take care of him.

Good.

You two hurry and leave.

It's very dirty here.

If we talk too much, other people will suspect us.

Your! Go back to work.

- Okay.\N- Hurry up.

Go.

- Hurry up.\N- Okay.

Go. Go. Go.

Hurry up. Don't be lazy.

Let's leave.

Quick!

Quick!

Thank you for today.

Thank me for what?

Just consider it as your reward for saving Her Majesty.

If I earn more rewards,

is it possible to release my father?

Can you not reach out for a yard after taking an inch?

So shameless.

Just pretend I didn't say that.

If someday you become the daughter-in-law of the Tang family, let's see if you'll release him.

What did you say?

Talk louder. I can't hear it.

I didn't say anything.

You misheard. You must have misheard.

Teacher, the Tianhai family is very fierce, right?

Yes. They are.

Then, are you scared of them?

I am not scared of them.

Luo Luo, it is already late.

Why don't you go to rest first?

I need to keep Teacher company.

Teacher, are there many people in the Tianhai family?

A lot. But I'm not afraid.

Luo Luo.

Changsheng,

my child,

I've been thinking about you day and night over the years.

I just hope to meet you one more time.

Now I finally met you.

But with a blink of the eye, I'm going to lose you again.

I'm the ruler of the country.

I need to save people all over the country.

But I can't even save my own child.

It's such a joke.

Her Majesty.

Changsheng.

would you blame me?

Why would I blame you?

Back then, you were still an infant.

But I sacrificed you to the Star Formation.

It caused you to have a fatal disease since you were born.

You've been struggling to survive.

Now you saved me,

but you're dying from your own disease.

You only have one slim chance to live.

But I'm afraid the Star Formation will go into chaos.

I don't dare to save you.

You're the ruler of the country.

You have to consider the common people first on everything.

I understand your hardship and difficulties.

The ruler of the country?

As a ruler of a country, I killed my own son myself.

This ruler of the country is a ruthless mother

and a cold-hearted empress.

I should have been the one to be sacrificed back then.

I should have been the one to suffer from the fatal disease over the years.

Even now, I should be the one to face death.

What's gone shall be gone.

I don't hate you at all.

But...

it was me.

It was me.

I had killed you with my own hands.

But that was the right thing, wasn't it?

If the person who died was Your Majesty,

I assume that the country would have been in chaos.

And it would be hard to say if I could survive or not.

I don't deserve to be a mother.

I don't deserve.

How many people survived because of my sacrifice?

There should be many more of them.

Every time when I think so many people got to reunite with their family because of my pain,

and how many mothers and kids got to be blissful because of my fortune,

what I have suffered is all worthy of it.

Why does it have to be you?

Why must it be my child?

I'm also a mother.

I also want to see my son learning how to speak

and play happily by my side.

Look him slowly grow up.

See him getting married and having kids.

But I don't even know what you looked like when you were a kid.

It's not fair.

Mother?

Hug me.

Teacher,

don't leave my side.

Don't leave my side.

Don't leave my side.

I won't.

Everything will be okay.

I promise.

Basically, the remaining criminals of the Tianhai family should have been cleared out by now.

There are some small players remaining.

We should worry about that.

Thank you for your hard work.

Her Majesty has been busy on fixing the Star Formation.

It became our responsibility to manage trifles like this.

Well, how's the investigation on the Snake Subduers?

They were able to have been hiding in the capital for so many years.

It means they have planted a spy who ganged up with them in the palace.

I first thought the spy was from the Tianhai family.

But from the information I got so far, it might be someone else.

What? Who is it?

I still have not been able to investigate.

But I will get to the bottom of it.

Your Holiness, I still have personal affairs to attend to.

I will leave now.

Father Xing, see Miss Mo Yu off.

See you later.

Miss Mo Yu, this way please.

Father Xing, please go back.

Miss Mo, take care.

Yourong, why do you do this?

What about you, Senior Brother?

Why do you have to do this?

Why can't you understand?

I'm doing all of these things all for you!

So, I'm only doing this just for him.

For him...

For him, don't you care about becoming my enemy?

Not mentioning to be your enemy,

even if to be the world's enemy, so what?

What are you doing here?

Enjoying the view.

It's a wasteland.

What's there to see?

Did you know that it used to be very beautiful here?

There were mountains, rivers, grass and beautiful cities.

Everyone lived happily

until one day the air, soil and water here all got polluted.

They all had fatal poison.

We were left no farmland to farm, no water to drink.

The sandstorm had covered everywhere.

I remember

many people died that year.

People had no choice but to hide in the cave or underground.

Because there where no places where we could go.

They aren't the reasons for you to attack the capital, right?

Why can't we do it for the sake of survival?

Even it means doing things we don't like.

There're things once done, there is no turning back.

My Royal Father has many sons.

Every one of them is my elder brother.

They only knew how to kill each other for the purpose of taking the crown.

None of them ever cared about me, their younger sister.

Because in the Demon Clan, a princess can't inherit the throne.

So, nobody cared about me,

including the maids in our palace.

Until one day, the bloodline of fear in my body was awakened,

surprising the whole Demon Clan.

My Royal Father finally realized he had a daughter, me.

Later, the Army Advisor arrived.

He helped us the Demon Clan and took me as a student.

I've had a higher position in the Demon Clan ever since then.

Although I was very lonely as a kid,

I never blamed it on them.

Because I know, only the strong ones deserve to survive.

I want the kids of the Demon Clan to grow up happily.

I want to restore the glory of the Demon Clan.

So I have to lead them to get out of the wasteland.

And make them live a life being well-fed and well-clothed.

Nobody was born a winner in the world.

To win, one has to work hard for it.

No matter if one is from the Demon Clan or Human Clan, this rule applies.

One who can climb out of the abyss shall be called a hero.

Qiushan Jun,

you're my hero.

You're mine alone.

For the rest of my life.

Teacher!

There's a thousand-year-old epiphyllum in the Herbs Garden.

It will blossom tonight.

Shall we go watch it together?

I don't have time.

Teacher, work and rest are equally important.

You should take a rest.

I heard the fragrance of the thousand-year-old epiphyllum can help people focus and have a clearer mind.

Will you please go with me? Okay?

- Let's go together, Mister. \N - Let's go.

Lou Lou, I really have no time. You can go alone

Teacher, it only takes a second for the flower to blossom.

Just a second. Okay?

It only takes a second. Just go with me.

Luo Luo, stop being a child.

The Star Formation is in a dangerous state right now.

If it's not handled well, the whole country will go into chaos.

I've been working on figuring out how to stabilize the Star Formation.

I don't have the time and energy to watch some flower blossoming with you.

Mister, do you know, for the epiphyllum, Her Highness...

Xuanyuan.

Oh. I understand.

Teacher, it is my fault.

I will not be childish anymore.

Then, I'll leave now.

Her Highness!

Xuanyuan, see.

No matter how beautiful the epiphyllum is, it'll only last for a moment.

After the moment,

I'll forget Teacher.

Your Highness, how about you tell Mister your agreement with the Goddess?

He will get distracted.

But there is almost no time anymore.

But it's still a stunning moment, right?

It's late.

Your Highness, you should go back to sleep.

No problem.

Xuanyuan, can you help me to make a cup of tea for Teacher?

I won't go anymore.

Okay.

Hey, Changsheng won't even talk to you because of that stupid formation.

Let me go talk to him.

If you really go, he will really be angry at me.

But seeing you like this... makes me sad.

I also want to be like who I was in the past, not complaining or arguing,

and stay by his side quietly.

But there is almost no time anymore

I can't make it anymore.

I've always thought only people from the Human Clan were too sentimental.

The Beast Clan should be straightforward with their feelings.

How can you be so melodramatic?

Because I care.

Actually, I envy you.

I also hope a fraction of my soul

can stay in a piece of jade.

So I can stay with him every year, every day, every hour,

- and...\N- Stop, stop.

How much volume of soul do you have?

You've given part of it to the Goddess.

If you also give part of it to Chen Changsheng,

what do you have left?

But I'm unwilling to just leave Teacher like this.
