May I be like the stars

and you like the moon.

As long as the world remains,

so shall we.

I only wish to stay with the one I love,

watching every sunrise and sunset.

I want to be with you forever.

Eternals and demons walk different paths.

You and she are ultimately different.

Have you ever

truly cared for me?

No.

Never.

In this life and the next, through all lifetimes…

May we live and die together,

and share life and death as one.

[Moonlight Mystique]

[Episode 18]

Qi?

Qi!

Qi!

Since you miss him so much,

why don't you let him out from under the tree?

Since when did you, the Master of Bright Moon,

start to play tricks like this?

I'm here only to verify one thing.

Last night, I sensed some spiritual presence

within this Emotion Tree.

After we broke loose from the Emotion Tree,

that spiritual presence took shape and attacked me and Bai Shuo.

Its demon aura

is pretty similar to that of Qi, the person

I transformed into

in Rong Xian's realm of resentment,

I was not sure, actually.

But judging from your expression, Master Chang,

I guess

the person buried under the tree

is your lover,

Qi. Am I right?

Can't believe he showed up...

That's right.

We've been worlds apart for 800 years—

one living, one gone.

Now, few people

in this world know that

we were once in love.

Didn't expect

you to know it too, Master Fan.

It was just a coincidence.

Master Fan, you once played Qi.

But Qi was not as lucky as you

to have his beloved one

by his side

and protect her forever.

You came to ask for the Weak Water Stone

for Ms. Bai, right?

You're smart, Master Chang.

Nope,

I've just seen what people in love look like.

I'm familiar with the way

you look at Ms. Bai.

But what a pity...

What?

What on earth happened back then

that left Qi buried deep under the tree?

The Emotion Tree withered?

Why?

Ms. Bai, you know what?

Under the root of the Emotion Tree

once buried the Weak Water Stone.

The Weak Water Stone

is a treasure

forged by the Fox Clan ancestors with the power of true love.

Wherever it is,

the spiritual power abounds like an endless flow.

After that battle 1,000 years ago,

the Fox Clan started to fall into decline.

My brother and I,

along with our Master, had been struggling

for years

until we finally got a chance to bring the Fox Clan back to prosperity.

But 800 years ago,

the Weak Water Stone suddenly went missing.

When did that happen?

Guess it was last night.

Early this morning,

I brought the young foxes here

and saw all the leaves of the Emotion Tree scattered on the ground.

I checked out with my spiritual power

[Qi, Demon Race, Fox Attendant]

and found nothing

down there.

Then what are we waiting for?

Let's shut down the mountain entrance

and block all access!

No matter who stole it,

we must try to find the Weak Water Stone by all means!

No.

All the races and clans around

are keeping an eye on the Jingyou Mountain, ready to move.

A high-profile search

will alert others to the Emotion Tree's anomaly,

and they'll surely take the chance to cause trouble.

Our Fox Clan went through a lot and just got back to our feet.

We can't stand another blow.

But if we just

see the Emotion Tree wither without doing anything,

the descendants of our clan will not be able to grow emotional veins

and cultivate curses.

At this rate,

the Jingyou Mountain will still be in trouble.

So none of them is feasible?

What on earth should we do?

Fill it with my life.

What do you mean?

The Weak Water Stone just provided nutrients of spiritual power.

As long as we keep offering the Emotion Tree spiritual power,

it will stop withering.

Now in the Fox Clan, I'm the one with the greatest spiritual power.

With the Weak Water Stone gone,

I'll support it with my life.

Wu,

stop talking nonsense.

You're the Master of Jingyou Mountain.

Just because I'm the Master,

I must solve this case.

As you can see,

those clan members

just won't let go of what my sister did back then

as if the one who wiped out their families was not Rong Xian,

but my sister.

But you still can't risk your life out of rage.

It's not out of rage.

I'm just tired.

Qi,

to them,

all the toil and hard work we've done for the Fox Clan over the years

is no more than

the atonement we're supposed to make.

I've had enough of them badmouthing me behind my back

and me having to endure their attitudes.

Let me pay with my life,

and then they'll know that

my sister never owed them anything.

What Rong Xian did back then

was a tragedy.

It's totally reasonable for the Fox Clan

to hate Rong Xian.

But why did they blame Ling Long

and even take it out on you?

Don't you know that

the malice in our hearts is the most poisonous thing in the world?

When Ling Long was still the Saintess,

those people were all fawning

and groveling.

But once everything fell,

my sister became the sinner condemned by everyone.

Ling Long fell in love with Rong Xian.

It was nothing wrong for her to die for true love.

Were it not for the feud between the Fox Clan and Kunlun,

maybe things wouldn't have ended up like that.

Her love became the evidence of stigma in everyone's eyes,

and she suffered endless accusations.

The hatred of the Fox Clan

gave them a reason to direct all their hatred at me.

I should have died

for relief.

But unfortunately,

Qi loved me.

Because of this love,

he was willing to sacrifice his life

to save me.

Qi!

Qi...

Wu,

My biggest regret

is not being able

to see you in that wedding dress.

No, Qi!

♫May I ask, what do the gods see in the world?♫

No, stop!

♫Sadness from infatuation, anger, and parting♫

♫My love brought tears♫

♫Greed for gathering, for holding, and for completeness♫

No!

♫I was never a flower, but I withered on my own♫

No!

♫I fell between your brows and became a good fruit♫

♫The grand dream of life is hard to let go♫

♫Searching for the path, the answers, yet found nothing♫

No!

♫With a heart full of compassion for the people, I let go of my obsessions♫

♫I cultivated myself to be free of desires, offering myself as a sacrifice to the moon♫

Qi...

♫The daylight burns through, and the stars shine bright♫

♫Through the Buddhist dust, I see the moon in the sky♫

Qi...

♫I am but a mortal, destined to fade♫

♫But I went through a thousand calamities for a promise♫

♫I severed emotions, desires, and the fate between you and me♫

♫To protect the world for eternity♫

After Qi died,

the Master was depressed for a really long time.

With my brother gone,

I had to work harder to take care of the Fox Clan

so that his life wouldn't be sacrificed for nothing.

With the nutrients,

the Emotion Tree was back to being lush and thriving.

Just like that,

hundreds of years flew by.

We thought everything would be fine.

But my brother's spiritual power

will be exhausted one day.

That's why

the Emotion Tree began to swallow people

to continue to obtain spiritual power?

At first,

we didn't notice anything unusual.

Not until a few outsiders came

and got swallowed when they

passed by the Emotion Tree

did it occur to the Master.

Qi's body is buried under the Emotion Tree.

Qi was loyal to the Fox Clan and the Master

all his life.

So our clan members are safe.

But outsiders are different.

If someone gets close to the Emotion Tree,

they will be enchanted by the desire for love

and see the people and things they love

in their illusions,

willing to get killed.

You mean

Qi's the one who's hurting people?

The Emotion Tree ending up as such an evil thing

was definitely not my brother's intention.

There must be something fishy behind this.

Ms. Bai,

you once saw my brother in the illusion.

so you should know

how righteous and kind he was.

We grew up together.

I can't summarize everything I know about him in just a few words.

Others may not understand,

but, Ms. Bai,

I believe you can feel it.

I trust Qi.

But now,

it's also true that

the Emotion Tree swallows people.

So,

Ms. Bai, I hope you can get to the bottom of this case.

Since you could make Rong Xian's obsession from 1,000 years ago disappear,

then you can definitely dispel

my brother's lingering soul.

I'll do whatever it takes to repay you, Ms. Bai.

Anything you ask for.

No way.

After Qi sacrificed his life to the Emotion Tree,

his soul has never appeared.

His sudden appearance last night

must have something to do with Ms. Bai's blood.

It must be the power of the Contemplation Stone!

It was a miracle!

Fan Yue,

I'm not fighting for that stone.

Neither do I want to be your enemy.

I really just want to see Qi once again.

I promise

I won't hurt Ms. Bai.

I just need a little bit of her blood.

As I said before,

no way.

You promised to give me the Weak Water Stone in three days,

yet you failed me.

Since you and Qi were innocent,

I didn't hold you accountable.

But don't go too far.

But as sensible as you are, Master Fan,

can't you have any mercy on the two of us?

The illusion Rong Xian left

means the fate between you and us.

I beg you.

I'll help you.

Ms. Bai.

Bai Shuo, do you have to go against me?

You can't even take care of yourself right now.

How can you help others?

I know what I'm saying.

And I'm fully aware of what I'm doing.

Master Chang was right.

You and I should know Qi best.

He won't hurt anyone.

Do you remember Ling Long's last words?

She wanted Wu to stay away from the fight between Eternals and demons,

take care of herself,

and live a free and peaceful life.

But what does it have to do with you?

This is Ling Long's wish.

But

for the Fox Clan,

Wu gave up freedom

and chose responsibility.

If I can't help Wu this time,

I'll feel guilty.

You didn't kill those foxes.

And Qi's death was also not your fault.

Why would you feel guilty?

But I can do her a favor now.

Do you want me to turn a blind eye?

But you're no more than a human!

Yeah, a human who got the Contemplation Stone by luck.

Master Chang,

I learned about you from Ling Long.

I also felt the warmth Ling Long gave me by holding my hand

and taking care of me as her little sister.

You may not know that

I used to have an elder sister too.

She's not with me now.

I believe

if Ling Long were still alive,

if my sister were still with me,

they would never see their sisters

suffer the agony of being separated

from their beloved ones

without doing anything.

The tragedy from a thousand years ago should have ended long ago.

I'm willing to help you.

Ms. Bai...

Excuse me, Master Chang.

We need to talk alone.

Come out.

How much longer are you going to hide from me?

N-No, I'm not hiding.

Fine.

Bai Shuo entrusted you with a gift from Chang Mei

to me.

Where is it?

I didn't see it.

What a man...

You're really bad at lying.

Are you really going to avoid me

and never talk to me again?

If you don't like Mu Jiu,

why are you going to marry him?

Even if it's fake,

it's going way too far.

I like him...

I like him...

But it's just a tiny bit of love

that's just beginning to sprout.

It's too subtle to be caught even by myself.

But when you fought him,

I felt nervous

and worried.

Only then did I realize

that I actually liked him.

You like him.

Then what about me?

What about the Master?

We are still the same as we were.

We're still friends.

♫In the chaotic night wind, the melody stopped♫

The world is not just about the romantic love between men and women.

♫The moonlight is gentle♫

The bond between you, the Master, and me

♫All the feelings turned into nothing but a dream♫

is friendship.

♫Reminiscing about the good old days♫

Cang Shan,

it's no more than friendship.

♫Singing until the voice fades, I'm feeling lost♫

♫Forget all about the past and leave it behind♫

Now,

♫Time after time♫

can you give me that wedding dress?

♫Oh, melancholy♫

No need to say anything.

I will never

say yes to this matter.

Do you remember why I wanted to become a god

when we were back in Ning'an City?

When I was still a kid,

a great immortal saved me and my sister.

We survived all thanks to him.

He said a deity's lifespan is really long,

and he wouldn't stick around to wait for me to repay him.

So I wanted to become a god

and fulfill my promise.

Now, you're going to sacrifice your life

before you fulfill it.

Looks like you've already forgotten

about your benefactor's words, huh?

I know you're worried about me.

The Weak Water Stone is missing.

I don't know how long

the Contemplation Stone can last in my body.

You ignored your own safety

and tried to save me first.

Fan Yue,

I'm really grateful.

Thank you.

But I also have something I want to do.

Chang Mei

is an old sly fox who has lived for 1000 years.

You don't know

if she told the truth today.

Qi's death

is just a story pieced from her words.

Don't you think

things are fishy and suspicious about it?

Fine.

What she is hiding has nothing to do with me.

I don't want to meddle in the Fox Clan's crisis.

Taking a few drops of your blood

doesn't sound like a big deal.

But what if she's up to something else?

I know.

But I also want to find out the secret behind the Emotion Tree.

If I shrink from taking any risk

after knowing

my days are numbered

just to survive,

it'll not only let down

my benefactor but also myself.

You should know

how it feels.

The Seven Stars Soul Burning Seal

has been on you for quite a while.

♫When you engrave your love into my heart♫

Did those life-and-death crises

♫When my star falls only for you♫

ever freak you out?

That's because...

Because you're strong.

♫When the heavens fall♫

You have full confidence in yourself.

♫I can still connect with you through the waning moon♫

But no one is born strong.

Not to mention that I'm a human.

If I don't train myself

♫When my pain blurs my eyes♫

and overcome every difficulty,

♫Out of the countless stars, I see only you♫

I will never become stronger.

So,

♫As you turn into a falling star and crash into my heart♫

you know Chang Mei's probably lying,

yet you still want to get yourself involved?

Yes.

Besides,

I have you with me.

Am I right?

Master,

we deceived Ms. Bai.

If the Master of Bright Moon finds out,

he won't let it go, I'm afraid.

I didn't lie to her.

Qi did sacrifice his life to the Emotion Tree.

The feelings between Qi and me

were also real.

But the Weak Water Stone wasn't lost.

It's right in...

Shut up!

When my brother died,

he asked me to protect you, Master.

All these years,

in my heart,

you are like my sister,

my sister-in-law.

I know

everything you've done

is for the Fox Clan.

But Qi is dead!

The one inside the Emotion Tree now is an evil monster!

So what?

Ms. Bai's blood has got the aura of the Contemplation Stone.

If we use her blood to nourish it,

that evil monster might grow stronger!

If he is no longer Qi,

letting him out

will put the entire Fox Clan in danger!

What if my original purpose

was never to let Qi out?

Last time when the Emotion Tree was dying,

Qi sacrificed all his cultivation

to the Emotion Tree.

This time,

I once wanted to do the same thing by myself,

But Fan Yue came.

I was wondering that, with his powerful spiritual energy,

there could be a silver lining.

Now we've got a chance, right?

Master,

are you going to kill Ms. Bai?

Today, Fan Yue's words made me realize that

the Weak Water Stone

is no more than the Fox Clan's treasure,

yet the Contemplation Stone is the real divine stone.

If we bury Bai Shuo

under the Emotion Tree,

then the Tree

will thrive forever and ever.

Master, you...

This is wild and unrealistic!

Before we talk about whether it works,

even if we do it,

the Master of Bright Moon will never agree.

At this point,

I have no other choice.

Ba,

I have to carry this out.

Let go of me! Let go!

Am I a prisoner or a groom?

Let go of me!

What did I do

to deserve to be watched over like this?

Do you think I want to watch you?

It's all your Auntie's order.

Auntie...

It's Auntie again!

I lost my parents when I was young.

I thought I could lead a carefree life.

But, oh my God,

I've still got such an annoying Auntie!

I'm not even 20,

yet half of my life

has been spent being treated like a prisoner.

I think

I was just born into captivity,

unable to escape.

What a worthless life.

Gosh.

You should be grateful.

In the Fox Clan,

we're either family or related in some way.

Let's not talk about the others.

There are a dozen orphans

in your generation.

But only you

were picked by the Master

and taken in as her nephew.

Now,

you've hit the jackpot

and are going to succeed as the Master of Jingyou Mountain.

Don't you think

you're so lucky that everyone would envy you?

Succeed as the Master of Jingyou Mountain?

Hasn't the succession ceremony been changed into the wedding?

Why are you still talking about that?

Elder...

Are you

colluding with my Auntie to cheat me?

No!

No more wild guesses.

By the way,

I need to go to the forest

to find those two people from the Cold Spring Palace.

That's it.

I gotta go now.

See you.

Don't go!

Young Master...

Move it to tomorrow?

Why?

Didn't we reach an agreement?

Tian Huo is my good friend.

I shouldn't

miss her wedding no matter what.

I've promised you that I would release Qi

for your reunion,

and I will never go back on my word.

One day earlier or later, there's no big difference.

Ms. Bai, you should also know that

everyone in the clan

will attend their wedding tonight.

The Emotion Tree is really important to the Jingyou Mountain.

If something goes wrong and alerts the others,

it will inevitably cause chaos.

As the Master of Jingyou Mountain,

I've got to maintain peace within our clan.

Hope you can understand.

Does it have to be tonight?

Yes.

Alright.

Since you've asked for it,

I should respect your request.

By the way,

Master Chang,

when is Mu Jiu's birthday?

And how old is he?

He was born in September, and he's not over 20.

Why are you asking this?

I am of the Human Race.

Marriage should always take horoscopes into account.

I'm just curious.

I'm leaving.

Chang Mei deliberately chose today.

There must be a special reason.

What's so special about today?

The first day of the ninth lunar month.

Anything significant?

Chang Mei mentioned that Mu Jiu's birthday is also in the ninth lunar month.

Could it be that she insists on holding the wedding today

because it's Mu Jiu's birthday?

That doesn't quite add up, though.

No need to overthink it.

I'll go with you tonight.

With me there,

nothing will go wrong.

I'll go too.

You stay here for the wedding.

Even if Tian Huo's marriage

is fake,

our Bright Moon Palace

should still have someone to accompany her.

In terms of Human Race,

we'd count as family from the bride's side.

How about this:

I'll go with Bai Shuo to the Emotion Tree,

and you stay with Tian Huo.

Why?

Cang Shan,

come with me.

When did you fall in love with Tian Huo?

You...

How did you...

How did I find it out?

It was on that day

when we talked about your age.

So you don't want to attend the wedding

because you don't want to see Tian Huo marry someone else?

Tian Huo has made it clear to me.

We are

just friends.

Bai Shuo,

why does Mu Jiu

get to be the one she likes,

while I'm

just a friend?

Isn't being a friend good enough?

I don't know.

I just feel uneasy

at the thought of

seeing her marry Mu Jiu.

You've known Tian Huo longer than I have.

What kind of person do you think she is?

She's carefree,

brave,

and also very smart.

She's also sensitive, pessimistic,

and a bit weak at times.

How could you say that?

Those aren't necessarily flaws.

Maybe your master

is just like her.

Tian Huo has been through so much in the past.

It's hard for her to trust anyone again.

You and Fan Yue became friends

only after

going through so many things with her.

Now that Tian Huo has finally managed to tear apart the knots in her heart

and is willing to give things a try with Mu Jiu,

this wedding

is far from simple for her.

But she said

it's just a temporary solution.

You

don't understand her.

Even if it's not about that,

I still find

Chang Mei's treatment of Mu Jiu

quite strange.

If Chang Mei doesn't have any ill intentions tonight,

then fine.

But if she truly has other plans,

we won't allow Tian Huo to marry Mu Jiu.

I have Fan Yue protecting me,

but Tian Huo will have to face the entire Fox Clan alone.

If you stay and help her,

we can rest assured.

So, are we going to

fight again tonight?

I hope not.

No matter what Chang Mei's goal is,

she's just a pitiful person trapped by love.

Maybe she has no choice for many things.

If it really comes to a battle,

no one will come out as the winner.

Isn't the situation with the Fox Clan from back then

the perfect example of this?

It hurts so much!

It hurts so much!

It hurts!

It hurts!

Young Master.

What's wrong with you?

Hurry up. Get me some medicine!

Go.

Hurry up, report to Master Chang.

Young Master.

Are you okay?

Idiot.

Luckily, I have a lot of stocks.

Huo!

You're here.

You scared me.

I thought Auntie and the others...

You're so beautiful.

It suits you so well.

Your hairpin looks great too.

Your makeup is also stunning.

I mean

you're already so beautiful.

Even if you wore a torn sack,

you'd still look like a celestial being descending to the mortal world.

Huo.

Why are you ignoring me?

Huo.

Cursed technique?

Have you forgotten the rules I told you?

Go back.

Auntie, I'm not leaving.

Let me just take a look at her.

Your wedding is tonight.

She still has a lot to prepare.

You can take your time to look at her once the marriage is settled.

She is acting strange.

She's been cursed.

Is that so?

You did this?

There's a curse on the wedding dress.

Do you want to lose your life?

She is my life.

If you insist on harming her today,

then you might as well kill me first.

What did you say?

I said

please kill me first.

Master Chang, we...

Get out!

Yes.

I raised you myself.

In the cold, I feared you might freeze;

when you were sick, I feared you might be in pain.

For all these years, I couldn't bear to let you suffer even the slightest bit of hardship

or injustice.

Yet in the end,

the life I've worked so hard to protect

is being used so carelessly

to protect an outsider.

Do I even matter to you as your auntie?

Auntie, I haven't forgotten the kindness

you've shown me,

but Huo has nothing to do with all of this.

She shouldn't have to bear any of this.

She and Fan Yue came to Jingyou Mountain

just to harm you!

All they want is the Weak Water Stone.

How does that translate into wanting to harm me?

They've never had any hostility toward the Fox Clan.

In the Outlanders' City,

they've protected me time and time again.

Auntie,

I'm begging you,

just give them the Weak Water Stone, alright?

Shut up!

I'll tell you one last time:

not a single word more

about the Weak Water Stone.

Ms. Bai!

Ms. Bai!

Is Master here?

Master.

I've finally found you!

Bad news!

What is it?

Lady Tian Huo is in trouble.

Lady Tian Huo

has been cursed with a very complicated spell.

We tried to break it for her,

but we were met with backlash.

Only a powerful demon with high-level mana

can help her.

Master asked you to go take a look.

Tian Huo got cursed?

Why would she be cursed?

Perhaps

it was those two people from the Cold Spring Palace in the forest who did it.

In any case, with the wedding approaching,

if we don't break the curse soon,

things will become troublesome.

Lead the way.

Ms. Bai.

It's getting late.

May I take you to the Emotion Tree now?

I'll go call Fan Yue to come along.

No need.

To release Qi,

only your blood is needed.

It doesn't matter

whether Master of Bright Moon

goes or not.

Could it be that

the feelings Ms. Bai expressed toward Ling Long

were all fake?

Or is it

because you don't trust me?

You must be joking.

Please.

Here he Comes.

Young Master is here.

Young Master is here.

Young Master is here.

You can save Tian Huo,

but you must do as I say.

Tonight, I will have Elder Chang Sheng

announce that the position of Master will be passed on to you.

If you dare refuse,

I will never spare the life of Tian Huo.

Understand?

I don't understand.

Auntie, why are you

so determined to pass the position to me?

There are some things I'm not telling you now,

but it's for your own good.

After tonight,

I will make sure all those who could harm you

are gone.

At that time,

whether you understand or not,

the promise I made to my sister

will be fulfilled.

Your sister?

Auntie's sister

isn't the Ling Long Saintess?

What did you promise her?

What does it have to do with me?

What do you want?

Auntie,

what's going on?

Master, please act quickly to break the curse.

This curse is extremely powerful,

and if we wait too long, it may be too late.

Tian Huo is a member of Bright Moon Palace.

Why do you seem even more anxious

than me?

You're being too modest.

Lady Tian Huo is about to marry into the Fox Clan,

so she will also be a member of mine.

The wedding in the palace is about to begin,

and if the time comes

and the bride and groom haven't shown up,

it would be quite embarrassing.

I see.

I misunderstood.

What's going on?

Didn't they say it was a wedding?

-Yeah. -So what is this?

Yeah, it's strange.

What's going on?

Master has issued a decree:

everyone, listen attentively.

A thousand years have passed, and I have grown old

and frail, unable to shoulder the rise and fall of the Fox Clan.

The heavy responsibility entrusted to me weighs on my heart.

After much consideration, I only see the talent of Mu Jiu.

He's talented?

With the governance and nurturing, success has been achieved,

and he is capable of bringing about reform.

I hereby offer this to Heaven and Earth,

and thus the position of Master is granted.

What's wrong with the position?

Yes. It doesn't make any sense.

Yes.

-Can he really become Master? -Yeah.

I, Elder Chang Sheng,

lead the tribe

to greet the new Master.

Greetings, new Master.

Chang Sheng,

is Chang Mei being reckless

and you're going along with her?

What kind of talent is Mu Jiu?

How could he inherit the position?

Yes, how could he?

How could he?

How could he?

Yeah.

Make it clear!

Elder!

Master has issued another decree:

anyone who disagrees with Mu Jiu inheriting the position

will be killed on the spot.

Actually, time can really change someone.

Right?

Ms. Bai, why do you say that?

Ling Long once said that

Wu has always been carefree

and didn't like practicing spells since she was young,

which is why she hoped she would leave the Fox Clan with Qi.

A vow of eternal love, a lifetime for one person.

But now, a millennium has passed.

Master, you've become a figure of immense power,

revered and feared by all.

No one in the Fox Clan dares to defy you.

If Ling Long were still alive

to see this,

she probably wouldn't believe her own eyes.

But if Ling Long were still here,

I wouldn't have become who I am today.

The carefree days of my youth were possible

only because

I had an elder sister who took care of everything.

Who wouldn't want to remain

a carefree child forever,

sheltered from the storms of life?

Since you understand this,

then why pressure Mu Jiu to take the role of Master?

Why bring up Mu Jiu

all of a sudden?

All right,

let's talk about Ling Long then.

You love your sister so much

that you gave up freedom and chose to remain

guarding Jingyou Mountain

for her.

When I asked Elder Chang Wu

about the Master's role,

he explained it's a position passed down in your family for generations.

Even if you have no descendants,

shouldn't the responsibility to the Fox Clan guide you

to choose a qualified successor

rather than a twenty-year-old orphan

with no family?

Am I wrong?

Ms. Bai, you seem unusually interested in the private matters

of my Fox Clan.

But we came here today for Qi.

Those old stories

can wait until we've freed him.

Let's go.

Why the rush?

With Fan Yue sent away,

my life is right here

for you to claim.

Let me finish what I have to say first,

and then you can make your move.

Ms. Bai, what exactly are you trying to get at?

I just want to know

who exactly Mu Jiu is.

Old fox,

I'll ask one more time.

Do you agree to the Young Master taking over

as Master?

Yes, I do.

Does anyone else disagree?

No.

I don't agree.

Cang Shan?

Tonight is a big day for Tian Huo.

Whatever tricks your Fox Clan is playing,

I don't care.

But the wedding of the guardian of Bright Moon Palace

will not be disrupted.

Mu Jiu is just a child

in his twenties,

an orphan with no family.

My bond with him is purely personal.

Surely that's none of your concern?

There are countless ways to hide a person's true age.

For instance, sealing their growth

so that even a child born a thousand years ago

could only start aging

twenty years ago.

For someone of your power,

it would be effortless.

But sometimes, the question isn't about what you can do.

It's about

why you do it.

Since I discovered

that Mu Jiu is not truly your biological nephew,

I couldn't stop thinking about it.

The connection between you two

goes far beyond what can be explained

by the absence of a blood bond.

Your care for Mu Jiu

surpasses even what a mother would show her own child.

What puzzles me most

is why you chose today,

of all days,

to pass down your title to him.

Then I finally remembered.

♫What kind of flower would never bear fruit?♫

Today, the first day of the ninth lunar month,

marks a thousand years

since Rong Xian

was ambushed by the Sect Leader of Kunlun,

lost his mind,

♫What kind of fruit never sees a flower?♫

and annihilated the entire Fox Clan in one day.

It was also the day

Ling Long died a tragic death.

Is that correct?

♫Withstanding the stillness, you are a broken piece of me♫

♫I am the fruit to your flowers♫

The Contemplation Stone must have taken us into Rong Xian's realm of resentment.

If my guess is correct,

it was Fan Yue who defied destiny in that realm,

giving Mu Jiu a chance to live.

The Contemplation Stone's power

then allowed Mu Jiu to survive in this world.

He is, in fact, Ling Long's child.

Cang Shan,

look carefully.

Lady Tian Huo is not here.

This is a matter concerning only Jingyou Mountain.

It has nothing to do with your Bright Moon Palace.

That's not for you to decide.

Mu Jiu,

Tian Huo told me herself

that she likes you.

It might not be much,

and it might just be the beginning,

but

her feelings are real.

Since she likes you,

that makes you the one who can bring her joy.

But if you become the Master,

who will

bring her happiness in the future?

That's why

I'm against it.

Fox Clan, heed my command!

Arrest him!

Young Master.

Everyone, back off!

Cang Shan,

drop the knife.

- You... - What?

If anything happens to you,

Huo will have my head for this.

Get out of the way!

All of you, stand back!

You're afraid that the resentment and curses that once fell upon Ling Long

will now land on Mu Jiu.

That's why you've gone to such lengths to hide this secret,

even using unknown means

to alter his age

and his background.

Today, of all days, was chosen

because it's Ling Long's death anniversary.

You want her to see

that Mu Jiu has grown into a man

and to give her back everything

that should have been hers.

Enough!

Ms. Bai, you're indeed incredibly smart.

You're right.

Both you and the Master of Bright Moon have shown kindness to Mu Jiu.

By all rights,

I shouldn't treat you this way.

But I've gone to great lengths

to protect Jiu's secret for so long.

I can't let anyone uncover it now.

Your kindness…

I'll repay it in my next life.

They won't dare lay a finger on me.

Go find Huo right now!

My aunt intends to harm her.

You must save her.

Do you hear me?

Master said

the strong should stay behind to hold the line.

You go find Tian Huo.

If anything happens to her,

you'll pay for it.

Now, go!

Stop Young Master!

Don't let him get away!

- Yes. - Yes.

Who would've thought?

Before we could act,

the Fox Clan is already falling apart.

By now, Bai Shuo should have been taken to the Emotion Tree by Chang Mei.

Let's move.

Chong Zhao,

what are you doing?

Master wants Bai Shuo

for the power of the Contemplation Stone

to become the strongest among demons.

But if

Chang Mei and Fan Yue die tonight,

she'll already be unmatched

and won't need Bai Shuo anymore.

Are you out of your mind?

How could the two of us possibly kill Fan Yue and Chang Mei?

It won't be "us."

Just me.

Chong Zhao,

you are injured.

Going alone is suicide!

I brought some of Chen Ye's evil insects when I came here.

They're not fully refined yet,

but they've absorbed enough celestial and demonic energy to be effective.

Don't worry.

You will be safe.

Chong Zhao!

I can help you.

No need.

Our paths were never the same,

so we were never meant to walk them together.

Tomorrow, you'll be free to leave this place.

Are you worried about me?

You're afraid Grand Master will punish me if he finds out,

aren't you?

Chong...
