"Ashes of Love"

EPISODE 4

I know you don't need this prowess.

You're only using the debt collection as an excuse to get close to Jinmi.

But, let me make something clear.

Jinmi is in Qiwu Palace now.

So, she is protected by us.

I don't care what you do out there,

but if you ever reach your hand into Qiwu Palace,

I will not stand aside and do nothing.

This is worth 500 years. Take it.

How generous of you, Fire Immortal. You counted the interest as well.

She doesn't owe you anything from now on.

Stop bothering her.

It's so hot!

I shall go back and cultivate slowly.

But, I see you are so sincere to Jinmi. I'm really glad.

The wind tonight is great, and the moon shines bright.

However, the wind is a little bit cold.

I shall head back to rest first.

Prowess is not much, but you sure have a lot of friends.

ZIFANGYUN PALACE

The bird tribe has around 20,000 new recruits.

I have redivided the provinces of Yimiao State,

and cautiously promoted eight new generals to manage every district.

What do you think?

Very good.

You are getting more mature now.

Thanks to your upbringing.

I shall not slack off at all.

I'm afraid to lose the bird tribe and your reputation.

Yes.

You...

what use is it when you only make me happy?

As a woman, you should go to Xufeng and visit him more.

I heard that Xufeng has a new elf, am I right?

Jinmi is just a low rank grape fairy.

Because she happened to give His Highness a few drops of honey

when he was injured.

Then she was brought back to the Heaven Realm along the way.

He is so generous.

Jinmi is wittier and livelier than the other two servants.

She has a harmonious relationship with me as well.

These little fairies might seem negligible,

but they are really crucial as well.

She is the closest person beside Xufeng.

It might help the relationship between you two in the future.

After Zifen passed away,

there's no real flower blooming in the Heaven Realm.

But real flower will whither too.

But they won't.

Once Xufeng becomes the Heavenly Emperor,

you will naturally be the Heavenly Empress.

By that time, power will give you everything,

including a great view of this garden.

Also including the longevity of the bird tribe.

Don't worry, aunt. Suihe gets it.

I won't let your expectations down.

Come on, Rourou.

Let's have a sun bath.

Rourou, I lost 300 years of prowess.

But just one night's sleep, and it has recovered.

Am I getting better now?

Don't worry.

I can't lose my prowess in vain.

I have to think of a way to get it back.

After I get it back, then I can revive you as soon as possible.

I heard those fairies say that this phoenix is not old,

but he is already in charge of the Divine Army of Five Directions,

and he is the most powerful among all the previous Fire Immortals.

I plan to ask for some magical prowess from him.

But that bird is very stingy.

It's not easy to ask for even a feather from him.

I still need to go look for the Moon Immortal and learn from him.

Don't you worry.

Fire Immortal.

I have made this flower biscuit especially for you.

-Have a taste. -I'm not hungry.

Have a taste. It's nice.

How is it?

Just after I recovered, I made this for your sake.

Share some prowess with me please.

It's too sweet.

I'll make it once more. Wait for me.

Too plain.

Too hard. Too soft.

It was just like what that fox fairy said.

Stop sighing.

I'll teach you three tricks if you wish to have prowess.

First, is to serve flatteringly.

However, I bet Xufeng won't buy that.

Indeed, he doesn't buy it.

I have a second trick.

Your Highness. You have to give me an explanation today.

If it weren't me who saved you,

why would I have ended up here in the Heaven?

If I didn't end up in the Heaven, how would I lose 300 years of prowess?

No matter what, you have to be responsible for me

by giving me back 300 years of prowess. Got it?

If you wish to repay me

by giving me a couple of hundred years of prowess,

I won't reject you.

Second, threaten him with you saving his life.

However... I guess Xufeng will send you flying with a slap.

It's hard to say.

I'm not giving up.

Not giving up.

I still have one last trick.

Then, what's the third trick?

Do you know what the strong are afraid of?

How long do you intend to trouble me?

Do not be hard dealing with the strong.

Only deal with them softly.

The weaker you get, the more he can't handle you.

If he doesn't react, you don't react as well.

Once he reacts, you start to cry.

I will not give you the prowess.

I don't want prowess.

I saw that you do not know how to swim

when we are in Floral Realm.

You do not do well with water,

so I'm thinking that it is dangerous here,

so I brought an umbrella to shield against all this water.

I will just guard quietly by your side.

Alright.

I know some tricks

to cultivate prowess.

If you are willing.

I'm willing!

I'm willing.

I need a Page Boy.

If you wish to learn,

come to Xichen Hall tomorrow and wait for orders.

Forming an alliance?

Everyone from the six realms knows that

the Floral Realm is busy looking for the lost flower fairy.

You know that the Floral Realm doesn't intervene with the world.

I won't agree.

Why do you make an unnecessary move?

Floral Realm advocates purity, but I'm afraid this hatred of yours...

made all of you impure.

The enemy of the enemy made an alliance, naturally.

Floral Fairy Peony,

you shall think it all over again before answering.

A noble person doesn't form an alliance.

Floral Realm strictly obeys the teachings of the late Floral Immortal.

We shall not intervene with the world.

Farewell.

Have Floral Fairy Peony,

and other Floral Fairies

forgotten who caused...

the Floral Immortal to die in hatred?

Although the Floral Realm is weak in power,

we still don't need other people,

or to be used by other people if we really wish to avenge.

You're proud.

But you have no strength at all.

It seems like the Floral Realm is filled with weak and pretty ladies, that's all.

I didn't expect much in the first place.

I see that you came here with bad intentions.

Begonia. we shall not be impolite.

The matter from Floral Realm doesn't need you to worry.

Let's go.

Farewell.

If you change you mind,

you can come here and look for me.

That's weird.

I just feel weird.

I think I've gained a lot of weight lately,

but I found out that I don't get fat in other parts.

Why is this the only part that gains weight?

Have you memorized the Brahma Spell

I taught you few days ago? Recite it for me.

No problem.

It is only a short Brahma Spell, but you had such a hard time reciting it.

Of the total 49 lines, you only got five right.

It sure isn't easy at all.

I memorized it.

I really memorized it.

I memorized it all yesterday.

It's because I was nervous just now,

which made me forget.

Bring it back.

Memorize it well, along with the Brahma Spell.

Come back tomorrow evening and recite it again.

I need to recite again?

Can I stop reciting?

I can learn something else.

You can teach me some other things.

No.

I observe that you still have some abilities.

Your prowess is not high because you don't have the fundamentals.

Not following the orders.

Now, you can only start with these theories.

Stop thinking of tricks or schemes.

There's no shortcut in cultivating.

Where are you going?

To memorize all these.

If you go now, who will fill the tea and grind the ink for me?

You do it during the night.

The Page Boy, shall have a page boy's attitude.

Grind the ink.

Princess Suihe.

You are here.

I brought some snacks for His Highness. Is he around?

He is in the Xichen Hall discussing something with Liaoyuan.

Wait a moment.

Princess Suihe, will I have bellyache after eating this?

Why would you?

You can grow a hundred years of prowess by eating this.

Thank you, Princess Suihe.

You are really the immortal from Heaven.

No no! Princess Suihe has huge benevolence.

You are the immortal of immortals.

You are filled with sweet words.

Jinmi.

How do you think I treat you?

Generously, of course.

Way better than that stingy phoenix.

Then can you help me with something?

Please, just name it.

I have liked Xufeng for some time.

But he doesn't show affection to me.

Although he is being polite, we are still not close enough.

That's weird. He is so fierce.

Why would so many people like him?

How many are there?

The queue is about here to Southern Heavenly Gate.

But don't you worry, he doesn't show affection to anyone.

We are all friends.

I will definitely help you with this.

How about this? I will go ask the Moon Immortal.

He has a lot of ideas.

That's great. Don't worry. I won't treat you poorly.

How is the defense from the Demon Realm, which Father ordered, going?

Don't you worry, your Highness.

I have followed your orders.

I ordered New Immortals Mansion to gather

a bunch of new earth immortals to serve in the Divine Army.

That's good. How about the investigation of the man in black from last time?

I'm still investigating it closely.

From the report of the guard at Southern Heavenly Gate,

they found the track of the man in black around Luoxiang Mansion recently.

Water Immortal?

Water Immortal retired many years ago.

He hasn't gotten involved in anything for a long time.

How is he connected with the man in black?

Continue with the investigation.

This has wronged the Night Immortal.

It has to be solved immediately.

To prove that the Night Immortal is innocent.

Understood.

Your Highness.

I went to the Mortal Realm and got some recipes.

I have made these snacks myself and bring it to you for a tasting.

Thank you.

Anything else?

This is the first time I've ever cooked. Don't you wish to try?

How is it?

It's good.

Jinmi, tea.

I'll do it.

No need. Let her do it.

It's done.

I'll leave first.

-I-- -You stay.

Jinmi, serve His Highness well.

Don't worry, you can count on me.

-Jinmi. Bring these-- -Alright.

I know. I'll bring these away right away.

Hurry Up!

Catch up.

HOUSE OF MARRIAGE

Moon Immortal.

Moon Immortal.

It seems to be crowded.

Ziqi Star Guardian, why are you so free today to visit me?

Greetings, Moon Immortal.

My name is Yuebei.

Ziqi is my sister.

Immortal.

I heard that you have a good relationship with the Fire Immortal.

Can you pass these letters to the Fire Immortal

for my sisters?

No problem.

Right.

Moon Immortal, can you give us some Red Strings?

I'll go get it for you now.

-Who is this? -I wonder who she is.

I wonder how do we address you, immortal?

Me?

This is the first time people call me immortal.

Good eyesight. Good eyesight.

Here's the Red String.

Yuebei Star Guardian, this is for you.

Put it in a cloud and it will grow.

Thank you, immortal.

Alright, stop looking at it.

Go do your work. Go.

Stop looking at it. Go do your work.

Why are you here?

Don't you need to serve Xufeng?

You still dare to say.

Your Xufeng got used to ordering me around.

It's because you are obedient and easy to order around.

Bring all these love letters to Xufeng.

Come here. Please sit.

Sit.

What do you need? Say it.

What do you need from me again?

I have a friend.

You have a friend?

Why does this opening sound so familiar?

I really have a friend.

Alright. Continue.

This friend of mine likes an immortal.

But this immortal doesn't show affection to anyone.

He is proud.

What should the friend of mine do to make that immortal like her?

This immortal whom your friend likes is as cold as Xufeng, right?

Yes, he is. He is as cold as Phoenix.

The level of this love question...

I really need to think about it.

It all starts from theory to be wise.

Jinmi.

This is the book I collected for years.

The book of love, Tianxiang Secret Book.

Were you going to say that?

You told me the same thing last time.

And you gave me this the last time too.

This time is different.

This is the special edition. I give it to you.

No.

To your friend.

Let her learn it well.

To build up the fundamentals first.

I can't read it.

Maybe Suihe can read it.

Anyway. I'll bring this to her anyway.

You are so nice, Moon Immortal.

Do you still feel uncomfortable? I'll give you a massage.

Be gentle.

Your Highness.

I allow you to learn transformation here.

You are not only late, but you started dozing off.

-Don't you want your prowess anymore? -I do.

Where is the table I asked you to transform?

This is transformed by you?

I was chanting to this table. I really did.

It not only didn't transform,

one of its legs got shorter.

You are truly amazing.

I'm flattered.

-What is this? -This?

It is used to balance the table.

How can you use it to balance the table?

What's wrong with this book?

Although it is all drawings,

but still, it's a book. It can balance the table.

Not only this. I used two more.

These are also collections.

Jinmi.

The spring is here. It's here.

You deserve to be the person I taught. You may continue.

How long do you intend to be on me?

Get up.

Get out.

I punish you not to sleep tonight. Practice the transformation.

I will check on you tomorrow morning.

I...

Uncle.

Uncle.

Brat without conscience.

How long has it been since the last time you visited?

It's my bad.

I have been busy with stars and night.

Working during the night time.

I'm afraid that I might disturb you.

Excuses.

You are early today, uncle.

I just got off, and prepare to pass the job to Maori Star Guardian.

The sun hasn't come out yet.

You are already wandering around the garden.

Uncle.

Did you forget that

Run Yu has a marriage contract?

It's not easy for the silkworm to produce silk.

Uncle.

You can stop wasting this on me.

Lulin and Linxiu are also.

They haven't been on the same side for these hundreds and thousands of years.

How can they have a child?

It's a sin wasting it.

If you have a son after the marriage,

he can be the sworn brother of my eldest son.

If it is a girl, she can be the wife of my eldest son.

So the relationship of our generation

can be passed down.

That is also something beautiful.

What do you think?

We shall obey your decree strictly.

Congratulations.

Run Yu. You are not young anymore.

Let me ask you this.

If Water Immortal doesn't have a daughter, will you not get married?

Actually, I have no intention of getting married.

Any fairy from any family will be wronged by marrying me.

Nonsense.

You are the Night Immortal. The eldest son of Heavenly Emperor.

How can they be wronged?

I don't ask for anything.

It would be great as long as I can be in the night

with no restriction, and to be a free and happy immortal.

Stop being stubborn.

How can one person guarding the night

be better than two persons warming each other?

Alright. I will take care of you.

Your father won't leave this aside either.

Uncle.

If I have to say,

it would be better for you to take more care of Xufeng.

Mother has been urging him recently.

It will be difficult for Xufeng.

Uncle is here.

Xufeng and you will not get away. I'll go back now.

To tie these Red Strings even tighter.

Thicker. Enhance it with magic.

Making sure it brings two people together.

I don't want to bother you.

-Here's another one? -This...

This...

Why not keep it.

As a reminder to visit you more.

You sure are teachable.

It would be great if Xufeng was as obedient as you.

Right, uncle.

Has your palace had a new little servant lately?

No.

After Xufeng was back from Nirvana,

the way of getting into the Heaven Realm has become more strict.

How could a random person become a newcomer so easily?

That's weird.

Right.

There's one in Xufeng's Qiwu Palace.

A Floral Fairy called Jinmi.

She's lively and witty. A very quirky girl.

I like her very much.

She must be special to catch your eye.

She is very obedient.

She must be wonderful.

Next time, I'll bring you to meet her to kill your boredom.

I'll leave first.

Take care, uncle.

I'm so tired. I'll go back and sleep.

Finally, someone who is understanding in the Floral Realm.

I owed the past Floral Immortal much.

But she was betrayed by someone.

Vengeance has to be taken.

As long it can avenge her, I'm willing to give anything.

Then I will need to see whether Floral Fairy Magnolia

is worthy to be trusted.

What do you need me to do?

I'd like to know

the whereabouts of this person's parents.

FLORAL REALM, JINMI

He is really a stingy person.

He turned me into chopsticks for a day.

I can only pick rather than eat.

Are you trying to starve me to death?

It hurts.

It's so painful.

It's so painful. I'm dying.

Ouch!

Don't come here. Don't come here.

Stay away. Get back!

I heard that your palace got a lively servant?

Why don't I see her today?

Did you give her a holiday?

Yes. You like quiet.

How could I let someone like her disturb us?

It seems like I'm quite someone.

This servant should thank me.

You are only someone around my place.

If she needs to thank someone, it will be me.

It has been seven days.

When will he let me go?

Now you know what a transformation spell is.

Liao Ting, Fei Xu, and Suihe,

come and save me!

We are all friends. Why did you only come to save me now?

Didn't I come to save you?

I was almost tortured to death before you showed up.

I, as a fruit fairy, have my pride.

I have decided.

I want to come to your House of Marriage and stay for a while.

But where shall I sleep?

Alright. Since you have worked so hard,

I have a secret to tell you.

-What's the secret? -There's a conscription in two days.

You may enjoy it during that time.

Conscription?

What is there to enjoy?

-I'm going to be-- -Who was that?

-I want to-- -Have you ever--

-Hey! -You're an idiot!

No way!

-...from there? -It was crazy!

Feixu.

What can we see later?

It's a listening test later.

His Highness will discuss the art of war with everyone.

To promote Divine Soldier from the newly recruited earth immortals.

This only comes once every 30 years.

You are so fortunate to catch this.

Then why are so many people here, but not there?

It is very fortunate to be picked to join Divine Army of Five Directions.

How impressive is that?

Then what's bad to join the Night Immortal?

You don't know right?

Although the Night Immortal is the eldest son,

he's a concubine's son.

He doesn't have any achievements in war yet,

so his recruitment is only for amusement.

But our Lord is totally different.

Our Lord is the son of the Heavenly Empress

who will take over the throne in the future,

and rule the Heaven Realm.

Will the Night Immortal be here today?

The Night Immortal is above these considerations.

He has no interest in such trivial matters.

He always sends one person to casually call the roll.

The Fire Immortal has arrived!

Let's start.

I am Lu Renjia.

Pancake roll stuffed with scallion.

I live in Suzhou.

Sweet and Sour Mandarin Fish.

I'm from Hejian.

Donkey Burger.

Soldiers are always crafty.

Lamb Kebabs.

Did you understand?

It's the same as last time.

Inform New Immortals Mansion

that the language of the six realms

will be considered in the assessment scope in the future.

Understood.

I'm Pojun. From Zhongyuan.

Spicy Soup.

I've practiced martial arts since I was young.

I studied under General Pu at the age of eight.

I once led 800 soldiers to the North.

What are you doing?

You spit on my face.

Fellow townsman.

How are you? Fellow townsman.

This is the first time I've met a fellow townsman after I came to the Heaven Realm.

You got it wrong. I'm not from your town.

I'm not.

Can you understand him?

I can understand every single word.

But, if he puts them together I can't.

You will be my interpreter.

Me?

He said, on hemmed-in ground, resort to stratagem.

On desperate ground, fight.

Act as the circumstances direct, watch for the proper moment for action.

Of all those in the army close to the commander,

none is more intimate than the agents.

Great.

Divine Soldier Pojun.

Every word you said is right.

You sure understand the art of war.

I will grant you the position

of Star Guardian of North Palace, leading 20,000 Divine Soldiers.

Starting from today, go to Divine Army Mansion.

Congratulation, brother.

What he meant is you got promoted

and you get 20,000 Heavenly Soldiers under you.

Thank you, Your Highness.

He is giving you thanks.

Learn the official language of the six realms as soon as possible.

It's easier to blend into the Heaven Realm.

He asked you to learn the official language well.

We are all friends.

Yes. Understood.

Wait.

Is... is this place still recruiting?

This place is Xuanji Palace. We recruit night guards here.

If you wish to be under the Fire Immortal,

kindly go to the opposite side to register.

No. This is the place that I'm looking for.

QIWU PALACE

Thanks to you just now,

otherwise I almost overlooked a great talent

and missed out on a great general.

I wish to know where did you learn that Zhongzhou dialect?

Are you a mutant grape that grew in Zhongzhou?

Mutant grape?

You are a burnt crow. Now that's a mutant phoenix.

I grew up in the Water Mirror.

I would read books when I had some free time,

to understand how the six realms looked like.

I got in touch with fringe languages apart from the official language.

I just learned it along the way.

One cannot broaden one's knowledge without learning.

You need to learn harder in the future.

Your Highness.

Since you are happy today.

Shouldn't I have some rewards?

Rewards?

Great.

Since you have been a great help today, I'll tell you an secret.

Qiwu Palace is going to hold

Rice Dumpling Festival of Mortal Realm in a few days.

To have some fun. You know that

there are quite a few ingredients in rice dumplings.

In the rice dumplings from Mortal Realm,

they're filled with bean paste, egg yolk, and meat.

But inside the rice dumplings of the immortals...

It has magical prowess!

QIWU PALACE

His Highness has ordered.

The prowess that are wrapped are all different.

Some are small rice dumplings with one year of prowess,

and 500 years of prowess, the Dumpling King.

When all the immortals from the Heaven Realm

come to Qiwu Palace,

we will see who the lucky one is.

Me!

I'm good at wrapping rice dumplings.

-Let me go. -No, you can't.

-Why? -Isn't it obvious?

We're afraid that you will cheat.

XUANJI PALACE, QIZHENG HALL

Heavenly Soldier Kuang Lu. Reporting for duty to the Night Immortal.

Reporting?

You came to the wrong place.

Your Highness the Night Immortal.

Xuanji Palace. I'm not wrong.

Is she sent by Heavenly Empress?

The recruitment of Xuanji Palace is always a show.

You can't do anything here at my place.

If you wish to get achievement,

you should have a try at the Fire Immortal's place.

I only wish to follow you.

I'll do whatever you wish.

You can't go to war following me.

Great. I'm not good at war anyway.

My place has much work but few people.

I'm afraid that sweeping, ink grinding,

tea and water serving, all has to be done.

I'll do all that.

I only work during the night.

If you come, you will have to guard the night with me.

-I can do that. -I have a bad temper.

I get angry easily.

Are you kidding?

In the Heaven Realm, the Night Immortal is famous for having a good temper.

I do research in special and prohibited spells daily.

Sometime I get crazy and might hurt people.

Let's see if you leave this time.

Your Highness.

Can you teach me as well?

Qiongqi. Stop wasting your energy.

Who?

Who is out there?

Qiongqi.

If you are willing to listen, I'll let you out.

If you let me out, I'll follow you!

Sister, are you worried about Jinmi?

It hasn't been ten thousand years yet,

but she left Water Mirror so suddenly.

I was always afraid of the past Floral Immortal's prophecy.

Will that bird... be Jinmi's ten thousand year love trial?

There's no such coincidence in this world.

It's better to play safe.

We had just fixed the barrier, but it was still broken by that bird.

I think you are too tired lately.

That bird? How can it be.

If it really was that bird,

I'd chop off my own feet and make them into fertilizer.

And the Yun Elixir is there as well. It won't happen.

We have already informed the flowers and trees everywhere.

Once they have news of Jinmi, they will report to us right away.

In these six realms,

there are many places that has no grass or trees.

Send some people to search for her right away.

Including the Heaven and Demon Realms.

Yes. Then we will not miss a single place.

Sister, let loose a bit.

My heart is always troubled of one day Jinmi not returning.

I haven't had a good night sleep since then.

The early morning.

The time day and night exchanges.

The time when the energy of heaven and earth intertwines.

It goes into our body in every way, which is suitable for cultivation.

Jinmi.

Jinmi.

A fairy sister from the Nine Luminaries Palace

asked me to bring you this letter.

It's for you.

♫ My left hand holds the ground, my right hand holds the sky ♫

♫ Lightning bolts erupt out of my palm print and go in ten directions ♫

♫ I quickly turn time into years ♫

♫ In three thousand lifetimes, I've seen it all ♫

♫ My left hand picks flowers, my right hand wields a sword ♫

♫ Between my brows, an entire 10,000 years' of snow has fallen ♫

♫ One teardrop ♫

♫ That is who I am ♫

♫ My left-hand's finger touches the moon, my right hand is selecting Red Threads ♫

♫ To bestow upon you and I, our desired and predestined love ♫

♫ In the moonlight ♫

♫ You and I ♫

♫ My left hand transforms into feathers, my right hand becomes scales ♫

♫ Some of my lives are spent in the clouds, some are in the forests ♫
