EPISODE 12

Greetings to the Night Immortal.

And this fairy is?

The birthday of the Heavenly Empress is coming up.

Every immortal will celebrate the birthday.

If you catch up with the Celebration now,

you would probably get a blessing from the Heavenly Empress.

Thank you so much for telling me that! My lord.

I've always heard that the Night Immortal is the kindest in the Heaven Realm.

Now I can see that you're as good as others said.

You don't have to thank me.

And as for the so called goddess,

don't you think the sun is too bright today? It may hurt your eyes.

Yes, yes, yes! You are right, my lord!

I'm getting old, and my vision gets blurry sometimes.

I didn't see anything at all!

If there's no order to take, I'd better get going now.

-Leave. -Good bye, my lord.

Fish Fairy, today is the celebration of Heavenly Empress' birthday,

won't you go attend the celebration?

No worries, I'm not in a hurry.

There's a lot of time before the Celebration starts.

What's more,

there are more than a million gods and fairies from Heaven to Earth,

and from all directions.

No one will notice if I'm not there. It's not a big deal for me.

But, Phoenix has already visited the Heavenly Empress in the early morning.

Won't the Heavenly Empress get angry if you don't go?

Phoenix and I are different for the Heavenly Empress.

If I visited her earlier, she would have been upset.

Why would she be like that?

The Heavenly Empress is not my biological mother.

Sorry for being so nosy. So which goddess is your biological mother?

My biological mother is not a goddess and has no position in the Heaven Palace.

I heard that she is only a spirit, she couldn't be more common.

Though she is just a little spirit, so unnoticeable,

she couldn't escape her miserable fate and keep herself from danger. She is dead.

I don't have any memory of my childhood,

and also don't know who my biological mother is.

I just know that after the death of my biological mother,

I was adopted by Heavenly Empress.

There used to be a time that Heavenly Empress

and I could get along with each other.

But, as time goes on

Heavenly Empress became more and more worried that

I would compete with Phoenix for the throne.

That's why Heavenly Empress gradually isolated me.

What about you? Who are your parents?

Mr. Hu told me, I'm a grape vine that was empowered by the Great Floral Fairy.

A grape vine?

But, you just made hail happen.

That's supposed to be water-related magic.

Oh, Phoenix told me that my body is suitable for being cultivated by water,

so I started to learn water-related magic.

Now that I can't make buns with my magic,

I will still keep my word. Let's go out to get some buns, Fish Fairy!

Okay.

These are your buns, enjoy the meal!

Little Two, a plate of buns please!

Okay, wait a minute!

Little Two? What is that?

Is there Little Three, Little Four, Little Five?

Little Three, can I have the menu please!

-Little Three! -Are you insane!

Don't bother us having lunch!

Let's eat.

What's wrong with them? Are they afraid that I would cut in line?

Fairy Jinmi,

in the mortal world, "Little Three" can't be used casually.

Are you ready to order?

Things are so weird in the human world.

Why can I call people "Little Two", but cannot call them "Little Three"?

That is so pedantic.

Fruit pancake?

You guys are so cruel!

Fairy Jinmi, the "fruit" is not what you think it is.

The "fruit" here just refers to the crust.

Oh, I get it.

It scared me.

So can I have this, and two cups of soymilk?

Alright.

Does Fairy Jinmi know that the breakfast in the human world

is very delicious and has many kinds.

It can compete with the breakfast in Heaven.

Sometimes, human breakfast can be better than ours.

I'm ready to try the human delicacy.

This are your crab buns, enjoy your meal!

Sorry, Fish Fairy

Never mind.

Fish Fairy, your magic is awesome.

To be honest,

I think you should attend the Birthday Celebration of Heavenly Empress.

I know that the relationship between you two is not close,

but it would get worse, if you don't go.

Even though Heavenly Empress may be upset for your presence,

you've tried your best to do what you should do as the son of Heavenly Empress.

You don't owe anyone.

Like the relationship between me and the Great Floral Fairy,

though I'm really afraid of her,

it is impossible for me not to attend her Birthday Celebration.

I agree with you.

Okay, I will return to the Heaven Realm after finishing breakfast.

My lord.

Why are you here?

My lord, you asked me earlier

to find a good-looking china for dews collected at night.

What do you think about this one?

To be honest, you don't need to show me how good it is.

What your father, Immortal Taisi, has is also nice.

You've already found out who I am.

How long did you plan to hide your true identity?

The dew that is irradiated by the starlight is precious.

For the past three years,

you have been guarding the sky

and gathering the dew.

It must have taken a lot of effort.

Is it a gift for the empress?

Let's go.

They are all going to attend the Birthday Celebration,

and leave me here alone.

It is so boring!

I should not have told Fish Fairy to go to the Celebration.

Who can hang out with me?

Mr. Puchi! It's you!

I was on my way to the Birthday Celebration,

and had just gotten to the 4th layer of the sky,

when I felt a strong power that dragged me back here.

Tell me, when did your power get so strong?

Maybe it's because Phoenix gave me a thousand years of prowess.

Last night, I was so smart to ask Phoenix to give me a huge red packet.

That could be the reason.

But, it's only been half a day, why so urgent to call me here?

-Is it because you are dying to see me? -Not at all.

Phoenix and Fish Fairy went to the Birthday Celebration.

I am so bored staying here alone.

Since you are here,

let's hang out together!

Today is a big day for the Heaven Realm!

All gods have to celebrate Heavenly Empress's Birthday.

Don't you want to join the Celebration and have fun?

I do want to go.

No no. I can't.

I can't go.

There are so many gods gathering together.

If the Great Floral Fairy knew I was there,

she would catch me, and bring me back home.

I've heard that Heavenly Empress has prepared

thousands of holy peach to treat the gods.

The holy peach is from the holy peach tree,

which has grown for thousands of years, and is watered by holy water.

It gives fruit every three thousand years.

It tastes juicy and delicious, and is good for empowering your magic.

Take me there please!

Aren't you afraid of exposing yourself?

There will be so many gods gathering there,

if I'm lucky enough,

I could meet Da Luo Jin Xian,

He could save my friend Rou Rou!

If I couldn't meet him,

I could still treat myself with the holy peach to empower myself.

Mr. Puchi, Mr. Puchi!

Take me there.

Please, please!

We are friends!

If you take me there, I will keep away from you and be careful.

If you won't take me there,

I will find a way on my own!

Since we are friends, I can take you there.

Do you two have invitations?

I'm a close friend of Match-Maker,

let us pass please.

That's unfortunate.

Today is a big day, it's the birthday of Heavenly Empress.

The Northern Heavenly Gate and the Southern Gate

won't open for those who don't have invitations.

I am a very close friend of Match-Maker...

Come on.

I didn't expect that mentioning the title of Match-Maker

wouldn't let us pass.

These two Heaven Guardians are so strict and stubborn.

Wait!

How did you get this?

What?

I've found our pass card,

we don't have to waste our time arguing with those guards. Let's go!

Excuse me, please.

See!

My apology! Please come in!

I never thought that the feather could work as a pass card.

Phoenix is really a bird with so many pass cards.

It is the treasure of the Fire Immortal, of course, it represents power.

Take care of it, it will help you someday.

Why do you have to leave so early?

It won't be late if you stay until the Birthday Celebration ends.

I got a message from father in the early morning,

saying that the lords of the cities started fighting with each other again.

I have to leave as soon as I can, to calm down the fight.

I just got in and gave birthday wishes to Heavenly Empress.

It is an emergency. If I am not polite enough according to Heaven's manners,

please forgive me.

Okay, take care of yourself. If you need help, just let me know.

I am still confused about one thing.

-I hope you could explain to me honestly. -I will.

Don't you love Fairy Jinmi?

Why did I hear that

Princess Suihe is going to marry you?

I'm not interested in getting married.

It may be just rumors spread by the Heavenly Empress.

Sorry, Brother Feng, I misunderstood you,

that you just played around and never took Fairy Jinmi seriously.

But,

Fairy Jinmi and I are unable to be together.

My beauty, are you alright?

I dont know why my heart feels so painful.

-Let me see! -Stop!

Do you feel better?

I feel much better now.

I feel the pain this time!

Let's go

It is so spacious.

There are so many people here.

You've lived in the Water Mirror for so long, and haven't experienced much before.

Today, I will show you the world!

Sit, sit, take your seat!

So much food!

-Do you want to eat this? -No, I want to eat that one.

Okay, I will take this!

Don't be so surprised, you are so inexperienced!

This is the Wushan Goddess, Yaoji

Yaoji Goddess, I'm glad you came.

-I'm glad you came too. -She is chubby in a very sexy way,

but her waist is kinda thick,

not my type.

This is the Nuying from Xiangshui.

People love her weak posture.

Are you okay?

But, a goddess who is as weak as tofu is not attractive either.

It would be better to add some heroic spirit.

Who is that?

The female hero, Jingwei, who used to be a bird,

pecking stones to bury the sea, and force the king of the Dragons to move away.

But her personality is so strong, no man could bear it.

Mr. Puchi, you are so knowledgable. How do you know everything?

Have you heard of The Beauty Encyclopedia before?

I wrote it!

But, there are not so many beauties nowadays.

Speaking of the ex-god of flowers, Zifen,

she is the most beautiful one that none can compare with.

Sad that the beauty can never live long.

Lord Lao is here.

Who are those two?

The man is the Water Immortal, the woman is the Wind immortal.

They are an unhappy couple.

They were married for many years,

but still treated each other respectfully as guests.

They still don't even have a child.

I think the Water immortal looks so elegant.

Your taste is really good.

The Water Immortal has been ranked no.1

of the most handsome faces in the whole realm for 10 thousand years.

But, he's also getting old now.

Of course, it also because of the handsome young man like me,

so the rank of the Water Immortal has been lowered.

I don't know why,

but I feel so calm and relaxed

after I look at the Water Immortal.

And he looks so familiar to me.

Familiar to you? You'd better be kidding me.

Water Immortal is detached from the outside. And he is indifferent to others.

It is possible that looking at him could make you feel calm and relaxed,

but he is not the type of guy who would look familiar to you.

Except Floral Realm,

the birthday celebration of Heavenly Empress

gathers all the goddesses from Heaven to Earth.

Does it indicate that Heavenly Empress would arrange

the marriage of Fire Immortal at the Celebration?

Hey friends!

So today is the day for the selection for Phoenix's potential wife?

Yeah, you are right!

I bet you a holy wine that Jingwei would win!

But, I heard that the Fire Immortal likes male fairies rather than female fairies.

Earlier before, there was a good-looking Page Boy attendant with him.

The Fire Immortal seems to love that young attendant very much.

Later, the attendant used some magic to turn himself into a female fairy,

so she was abandoned by the Fire Immortal.

The Fire Immortal is in high position, which seems to be powerful,

but he can't even make decisions about his own marriage.

His marriage is just a power game.

Heavenly Emperor, Heavenly Empress, Fire Immortal, Night Immortal are coming!

Happy birthday,

Heavenly Empress,

wish you live long and prosper!

Everyone,

sit down please!

Thank you all for coming to my birthday celebration!

You all bring so much fun to the Palace.

I feel so happy now.

Alright, let's start the banquet!

You promised me that

you will never let Mr. Puchi get close to Fairy Jinmi.

Now what is this?

My bad, I will try to get him out.

Let them be this time.

I don't want to make trouble during the birthday celebration.

Watch out for these two.

Why does the bird get upset again for no reason?

Has he found out that I tricked him for the one thousand years of magic power?

Fish Fairy!

Why has Fish Fairy become weird too?

Coming to this Birthday Celebration really makes him feel so bad.

Let's eat something, take this, take this.

Mr. Liaoyuan,

send orders to General Pojun.

Double the Heaven guardians to guard the Heaven Palace.

Yes, your highness.

Who is this one?

He is Rat Fairy.

Rat Fairy?

Rats are the scariest things in the world, I don't like rats.

He is not a common rat.

He's our boss in the Chinese zodiac.

He is really smart and talented. He is a good player of chess.

When your favorite Water Immortal was detached from the outside world,

the Rat Fairy was the only one

that accompanied with the Water Immortal to play chess.

Did he?

So he is a nice guy.

Runyu wishes Heavenly Empress a long life and prosperity.

The Night Immortal has become increasingly frugal recently.

You come to the banquet

with only a wooden hair pin.

I appreciated your simple personality.

But,

it looks like something from Floral Realm.

Reply to the Mother,

it is just a usual hair pin made from a vine.

How can such a usual thing

get into the eyes of the Night Immortal?

The vine is a gift from a very special friend of mine.

It is meaningful to me.

Jade hairpin, diamond hairpin,

gold hairpin,

these are very rare and expensive,

but for me, they are all worthless compared with this vine hairpin.

Today is Heavenly Empress's Birthday Celebration,

I think the vine hairpin is a perfect match.

Exactly, Fish Fairy is really my best friend!

This vine looks interesting,

could you tell me who gave it to you?

Whether this one attends the banquet today?

Reply to Father,

this friend is neither a god nor a spirit, she is not here today.

What a pity!

It must be a very special existence.

Next time, if there's a banquet,

please remember to send her an invitation!

Yes, Father.

Fish Fairy is so smart!

But Heavenly Emperor is so sharp,

he has never met me before,

but he could tell my personality only by a grape vine.

Such an accurate comment on my personality.

Rat! Rat!

Rat!

The Fairy guest, watch your manners!

Rat!

-What are you doing? -This is The Empyrean Heaven!

It is impossible to find a rat here!

Sorry that my little friend scared you guys!

It is totally my fault!

You, such a naughty thing!

Who are you?

Why do you hide your true identity with illusion magic

at my banquet?

Mother!

Isn't that the Goddess of Flowers from Flower Palace, Zifen?

You took such good care of your skin! You look so young,

and prettier than ever!

God of Wine! Are you drunk or insane?

Zifen has been dead for a thousand years.

Exactly!

God of Wine, you'd better sober up now!

This is not Zifen!

This is the attendant of Xufeng, Jinmi!

The red threads in my palace

are all messed up.

It made me dizzy trying to untie those knots,

so that I forgot the time.

I hope that my brother and sister won't blame me.

This is Jinmi, it's really nice to see Heavenly Emperor and Empress.

Jinmi you look just like her.

Could you tell me where you are from, Fairy Jinmi?

Brother, you are so isolated from the outside world.

Jinmi lived in Phoenix's Palace.

Phoenix has taken care of her

for a long time.

My son,

could you tell me where you found a fairy so pretty as this?

Jinmi is randomly picked up by Phoenix.

No, Fox Fairy misunderstands.

I picked up Phoenix by accident.

I feel shy to mention it,

but I have saved Phoenix's life three times.

Are you the one who gave the Night Immortal the hairpin made from a vine,

and helped the Fire Immortal go through trials and tribulations?

It is!

Yes, Heavenly Emperor, as you just said.

Heavenly Emperor

and I have to thank Fairy Jin Mi for saving our son's life.

My pleasure! Not worth mentioning it! It's not a big deal.

Could you tell us where you met the Fire Immortal by accident?

In the Water Mirror!

Why did I say that!

The Floral Fairies will definitely catch me now.

Fairy Jinmi, are you a Floral Fairy?

No, I am just a fruit spirit.

-Fruit? -I am a grape spirit.

Could you tell us how old you are?

Around four thousand years.

I could understand that Heavenly Emperor and Empress

want to find a good match for the Phoenix,

but she is just a shy little girl.

Please don't be so straight forward.

I heard that Suihe prepared something special for Empress's Birthday.

She prepared a dance called Feathers Dancing in Clouds.

I don't know if the Heavenly Empress is ready to watch it with me.

Okay.

Let's go and sit there.

Take a seat.

Great!

All the bird fairies and I,

wish Heavenly Empress a Happy Birthday! Wish a long life and prosperity.

You are so sweet Suihe,

I couldn't ask for more.

If only Phoenix could be as considerate as you.

Thank you so much for the compliment!

I am nothing compared to the Fire Immortal.

The Fire Immortal is such a fierce fighter conquering everything.

We are family.

We should spend more time together and become more intimate.

Please sit by Xufeng's side,

it would be more convenient for me to talk with you.

Yes.

Today is auntie's birthday, let's drink more holy wine to celebrate.

Mi, how do you feel when watching this scene?

Aren't you jealous?

You do feel jealous!

I don't feel anything at all,

I just feel so familiar

with this scene.

Heavenly Emperor, see these two sitting there.

It's like the scene in the picture that hangs on the wall in my personal palace.

The picture depicts a lovely couple walking in the spring's drizzling rain.

I remember that there's a title for the picture,

"A Perfect Match of Pearl and Jade".

Oh, yeah! I remember it! It is exactly A Perfect Match of Pearl and Jade!

I saw the scene from the picture book, Tianxiang Secret Book.

So the Peacock Fairy has done spirit training with Phoenix.

You are talking nonsense!

I did not make it up.

I just wonder,

if the Peacock Princess is willing to share some tips about spirit training,

so that we can increase our magic power and make progress together!

How dare you say that!

How dare you say those offensive things!

-Thunder God and Lightning Goddess! -My Lord!

Drag her out of this holy palace and kill her immediately!

Wait!

Today is Heavenly Empress's birthday, it is supposed to be a day full of joy!

It is not a day for killing. Reconsider your decision please, Mother!

This child is from the Floral Realm.

I'm afraid that she knows nothing about Heaven's disciplines.

Please be merciful, Heavenly Empress!

What she said is just so offensive and indecent,

it offended our dignity and honor.

It is impossible for me to forgive it.

Calm down, Heavenly Empress

If you want to punish her, please punish me first.

Jinme is my best friend.

If not for me telling her

that today is the birthday celebration,

Jinmi wouldn't be here.

I take full responsibility.

Your hairpin has the other pair, hasn't it?

So, is the grape spirit is the one you just mentioned?

Is she your best friend who gave you the hairpin?

If my memory is correct,

the Night Immortal just mentioned

that the one who gave you the vine hairpin was not here.

So, you were lying to us.

Do you intend to take the blame

to cover her up?

I am willing to take any punishment

and won't complain a word!

Phoenix Feather!

I didn't know that Phoenix Feather was as powerful as an Amulet!

Xufeng!

I hope Heavenly Empress would forgive her this time!

Empress, please, give her one more chance.

You two...

How dare you! The Snake Fairy!

Thunder God and Lightning Goddess, catch them!

Yes, Your highness!

Sorry for interrupting your birthday, Heavenly Empress.

I will take the responsibility and punishment after Jinmi comes back.

Xufeng!

It is my fault, I can't let Fire Immortal take the responsibility.

I'm going to make up for my mistake. I'll come back later!

Oh my god.

I moved so fast, I feel sorry for those poor Heaven guardians

since they were unable to catch us!

I am such a powerful man!

Mr. Puchi.

Thank you so much! You saved my life again!

So, how will you pay me back?

What do you want?

How about being my woman?

We can explore the secrets of spirit training.

Spirit training?

Do you want to turn into ashes?

Thunder God and Lightning Goddess are coming soon, come with me!

I wonder why the Fire Immortal wants to turn me into ashes.

I don't have time to talk nonsense with you.

If you keep trying to push my limits,

I will turn you into ashes in seconds.

Maybe he is the only one who can protect Jinmi.

My little beauty,

I'm sad that our feelings for each other are intervened by others.

No worries, I will train myself hard, then take you back!

Going to the Birthday Celebration

was just for a bite of the holy peach to increase my magic power.

Are you bringing me back to the Heavenly Palace and letting the Empress kill me?

Let her kill you?

I only have one Phoenix Feather,

and I give it to you.

Why can you still not understand my heart?

Even though we are destined to be separated..

Thank you.

Please wear this Phoenix Feather.

I wish it could protect you for me, protect you to be safe and secure.

I'm going to send you back to the Floral Realm now.

After you go back home, we will never meet each other again.

Fairy Jinmi.

-Fish Fairy! -Are you alright?

Great Floral Fairy.

It is great that the Fire Immortal has made this decision.

-Great Floral Fairy. -Great Floral Fairy.

Don't worry, I am a rational person.

Now that I know Jinmi is related to me,

I definitely don't want to bring any trouble to her.

The Fire Immortal is such an understanding person.

Please keep the secret, for the peace of the Floral Realm.

What? What's the secret?

Stop asking!

If the flowers here hadn't sent us signals it would have been so hard to track you.

How long did you plan to hide from us?

Today is the Birthday Celebration of Heavenly Empress.

Jinmi got in, and accidentally and exposed her true identity.

Heavenly Emperor and Empress became suspicious about her identity.

At this moment...

The Heavenly Guardians are out looking for Jinmi.

What? Jinmi!

I didn't mean to bring troubles to you guys!

There was a rat which scared me.

I'm not surprised at all. If you were not a trouble maker,

Match-Maker would be the Heavenly Empress someday.

Your Highness, Fire Immortal. We took an order from the Empress,

Fire Immortal, please don't get in the way.

Jinmi is a spirit of Floral Realm.

No matter what mistakes she made,

she can only be judged according to the Rules of the Floral Realm.

Anyone who's not from the Floral Realm, has no right to do anything to her.

There are 36 Heaven Generals and millions of Heaven Guardians in the Heaven Realm.

If I remember correctly,

none of them are under the charge of the Heavenly Empress.

Thunder God and Lightning Goddess,

you two have probably forgotten to whom you should follow.

Calm down, Your Highness, we are followers of you.

Certainly, we should take orders from you.

So, take my order right now,

bring the Heaven Guardians back to the Heaven Realm immediately!

I will explain to the Heavenly Empress in person.

Yes, your Highness.

Floral Fairies.

It is me who broke into the Water Mirror and took Jinmi out.

I did not expect to make so much trouble. My apologies.

Two honorable immortals from Heaven burst into our realm many times.

We just figured out why the Fire Immortal accidentally got into our Realm.

Could you explain the intention of your breaking in?

Fairy Jinmi is such an outgoing and energetic lady.

She is curious about everything,

but she seems unhappy to be restricted in the Water Mirror.

As a friend of Fairy Jinmi, I just want her to have more freedom.

I don't think you are honest with us.

The Fire Immortal is straightforward,

why can't the Night Immortal tell us the truth?

I have never done anything that crossed the line,

so I am telling the truth,

I do treat her as my friend.

Floral Fairies, please don't blame the Fish Fairy.

Fish Fairy is a good dragon, and I like him.

What did you just say?

I said, Fish Fairy is a good dragon.

I...
