[Episode 28]

Director has summoned

Nangong Shi for punishment.

So Yan Rushan will be put on trial

for his jailbreak soon.

Grief Tree.

Since you've granted us the divine edict

to protect Yan Rushan and my love,

please bless him

to get through this.

That's right.

Lyu Jianwen and your love

has been acknowledged

by Grief Tree.

Just answer

my questions.

Don't say anything else.

What kind of questions?

Just answer.

I...

Yan Rushan.

I, Yan Rushan,

swear to...

Share

weal and woe.

Share weal and woe

with Lyu Jianwen

for life without regrets.

This is the vow

you and her made

under Grief Tree.

I'm sorry.

I was too stupid.

I never expected you to like me.

And I didn't realize

your feelings for me.

But my...

my feelings for you...

I know.

I've already known it.

Now that I know you love me,

I no longer have any regrets.

But jailbreakers...

will be ex*cuted.

After I leave,

promise me...

to forget me

and live a good life.

Don’t talk nonsense.

I’ve discussed with Third-ranking Chief.

You were manipulated by the fox spell.

Tushan

and I

will fight for you.

Trust me.

[Wangquan Villa]

Nangong Shi colluded with evil spirits,

k*lled his father and fellow disciples,

and usurped the position of director.

According to Yiqi Alliance's law,

he'll be expelled

and ex*cuted.

Take him away.

Choose a date for execution.

Let go!

I am the director!

I am the director!

Next, we'll deal with

Kongxian Mountain's bull spirit, Yan Rushan, escaping prison.

Take Yan Rushan out!

Yan Rushan.

You threatened a prison guard

and escaped Huntian Prison without permission.

Do you plead guilty?

Yes.

Since you admitted to it,

by law,

you'll be sentenced to death.

Wait.

Director Wangquan.

Rushan

escaped prison for another reason.

That day,

he was bewitched with the fox spell

by evil spirits.

That's why he escaped.

We should reconsider

his punishment.

How can a mere fox spell

manipulate one to this extent?

Chief of Tushan.

Are you scaring us

just to get him out of trouble?

Fire!

There's fire there too!

Help! Put out the fire!

Here!

Put out the fire!

Help...

This is the fox spell.

Sit now.

Yan Rushan.

Did you escape prison because you were bewitched

by this spell?

That day,

there was a voice

in my head

egging me on to escape Huntian Prison.

Director.

The guard who was threatened by Rushan

said Rushan was acting out in his testimony too.

Even so,

after sobering up,

you should've turned yourself in immediately.

Why didn't you come back?

Because he wanted to save me.

Lyu Jianwen.

What do you mean?

Why would Rushan risk his life

to save you?

Because we love each other.

We've already made our vows

under Tushan's Grief Tree.

Lyu Jianwen.

As a Yiqi Alliance member,

how can you fall in love with a spirit?

Even confessing it in public?

How shameless!

Shameless!

May I ask

if there's a law in Yiqi Alliance

banning humans from loving spirits?

After I fell for a spirit,

have I done anything

to hurt humans?

You can

punish me for my mistake.

But you can't put me on trial

for loving a spirit.

Everyone,

among you,

who can tell us

what Constable Lyu did wrong?

If not,

let's continue.

Director.

Director.

Is it a crime for humans

to love spirits?

Is it a crime for humans

to love spirits?

Loving spirits

is not a crime.

In that case,

Rushan's verdict...

Butler Fei.

Rushan was eager to save a life

and bewitched by the fox spell.

Under such circumstances,

how should he be punished?

Yiqi Alliance's law values legal principles

and human sentiments.

Rushan's jailbreak

involves

extenuating circumstances.

But he still escaped without permission.

He should get an additional forty years.

Forty years?

With the previously unfinished sentence,

it's a total of 100 years.

Yan Rushan.

Do you accept your verdict?

I, Yan Rushan,

plead guilty.

Take Yan Rushan away.

Director.

Rushan's been sentenced,

but we can't dismiss Jianwen's incident

of falling for a spirit.

It isn't a crime,

but Yiqi Alliance was set up to k*ll spirits.

Since Jianwen fell in love with a spirit,

we should expel her.

Yes, expel her!

Expel her!

Director.

Everyone.

I, Lyu Jianwen,

will resign from the position of constable

and leave Yiqi Alliance.

Please allow me to do so.

Have you really made up your mind?

Your Lyu family's been the backbone

of Yiqi Alliance's legal system.

For a spirit

with a 100-year jail sentence,

are you really willing

to forsake us and your promising future?

If this so-called future

means forsaking my love,

I don't

need it.

Granted.

Thank you, Director.

Director Wangquan.

Today's disaster

occurred because the fox spell

broke through Huntian Prison's defenses.

How will Yiqi Alliance deal with it in the future?

Since Rushan escaped prison,

Yiqi Alliance's sent 3,000 more guards

to guard day and night

and reinforced the barriers inside and outside the prison.

I'm afraid that

still can't stop the fox spell,

which controls a person's will.

If someone is there,

it can take advantage of them.

I suggest that

since the powerful fox spell

is not unpredictable,

why don't we ask Spirit Alliance's director to help

strengthen Huntian Prison's defenses

to prevent fox spells?

Well...

Then

we can reduce jailbreaks.

More importantly,

similar conflicts between the two alliances

could be curbed.

No way!

Huntian Prison is a vital base of ours.

It can't be tainted by spirits!

Yes, Director.

What if the spirits are up to something?

It'll be too late then.

Honghong must be

here today for this.

Are you all against it

for Yiqi Alliance's safety

or some so-called dignity?

This...

For Yiqi Alliance's safety, of course!

If someone attacks

Huntian Prison with the fox spell again,

how will you

protect Yiqi Alliance?

Fight to the death with evil spirits?

Or blame it all on evil spirits?

This can be solved easily

with the alliances' collaboration.

Do we have to split into factions

due to prejudices?

This was an evil spirit's intrusion.

If it's a stronger force next time,

what will you do?

I've made up my mind.

We'd like Chief of Tushan to help

fix the security loopholes of Huntian Prison.

Chief of Tushan, what do you think?

It's my duty.

Don't comfort me.

I've never been as free

as I am now.

What comfort?

I want to congratulate you.

After slogging away for years,

you finally have time to relax.

If you really envy me,

you can resign anytime.

No need.

I want to pursue fame and fortune

to change the future of Yiqi Alliance.

Why did you come to see me alone,

Director Wangquan?

At this point,

you still refuse to tell the truth.

Where did the evil spirit who colluded with Nangong Shi

get their external power from?

How do you know about the external power?

I've been outside the circle.

Aolai Sanshao created the circular boundary

with his power back then.

How did you get there?

When Sanshao's rod made that circle,

to bridge the junction between the starting and ending points,

lone members of Yiqi Alliance's Heaven Sect set up their mantra.

Back then,

I cracked the mantra

to leave the circle.

Are you referring to the current Heaven Sect Pass on the border?

That's right.

Who exactly lives outside the circle?

I only know

they can't be k*lled.

Why?

They're creatures without physical form.

What's scarier is

they can control people's mind and consciousness.

Anyway,

the external power is mysterious.

It can destroy the six realms.

They mustn't enter the circle.

Have you heard of Tushan Shi Ji?

The evil spirit

who started the Human-Spirit w*r centuries ago?

Yes.

Now that she's back,

she's aided by external power.

Yiqi and Spirit Alliances

must join forces now.

I'm sorry.

Since I couldn't shorten your sentence,

you'll be lonely for 100 years

and never be

with Jianwen in this life.

I'm just reaping

what I've sown.

I can only bear the consequences.

It’s not anyone’s fault.

Besides, you and Chief

have done a lot for us.

It's good you've come to terms with it.

Actually,

rather than being separated,

it hurts more when the one you love

doesn't love you.

Something troubling you?

Nothing.

Right,

Jianwen asked me to tell you

she's no longer a member of Yiqi Alliance.

She can't visit you as promised.

But she'll wait for you outside,

forever.

Wait for me outside?

Forever?

I have a favor to ask.

Can I meet

Chief?

You want Jianwen to forget you?

Yes.

She and I

aren't meant to be in this life.

Instead of letting her wait endlessly,

let her forget me.

Only in this way

can she forget the pain

and start over.

Please grant me this wish.

Do you know

once she's struck by the sorrow-oblivion spell,

she'll never remember you in every lifetime?

In

every lifetime?

The sorrow-oblivion spell

severs your bond for good.

Once the spell takes effect,

the fate of your love will be gone

and you'll never meet again.

Even so,

I wish she will

forget me completely.

Should we

consult Jianwen on this matter?

Love is between two people.

It's not up to you to decide.

She won't agree.

So for her own good,

she can't find out about this.

You think it's good for her

to forget you.

But love comes from the heart.

For lovers,

even when separated,

they'll still be happy

to be able to love each other.

No matter what,

I can't let her cling onto

a promise that can't be fulfilled

and live the rest of her life

pining hopelessly.

Chief, please grant my wish

and teach me this spell.

Chief.

What are your plans?

I'll...

do what I should do.

I can't go back to Yiqi Alliance,

but many humans still seek my help

for investigations.

As for him...

It's just a 100-year sentence.

I'll wait for him.

For humans,

a century's a lifetime.

You may wait your whole life

but never see him again.

Even so,

I'll wait for him.

If you still want to be with him in this life,

I might have another way.

What is it?

I can use Grief Tree's power

to turn your memories of him into love

and extend your lifespan.

So after

Rushan's released in 100 years,

you can meet him again.

But...

But what?

But

you'll forget him

for a century.

You might fall in love

with someone else.

When you reunite, everything would've changed.

But I want to remember him forever.

Thank you, Chief.

What if Rushan also wants you to forget him?

Lovers should

guard their love despite all obstacles.

We can't be together now,

but our hearts are together.

How dare you lure me

to perish with Yuechu together?

How dare you!

Do you think you will

be with Honghong together forever then?

Does it hurt?

Does it remind you of your past suffering?

Of course.

How could I forget

that intense pain

where I'd rather die?

Then how dare you betray me?

I like Honghong.

She is my only tie in this world.

Without her,

my life

is no different from death.

Since you love her so much,

why did you cooperate with me to frame her

and deceive her?

Tell me!

I regret it.

Do you regret working with me

just to be awakened?

Unfortunately, there's no antidote to regrets.

I'll tell you the truth.

Centuries ago,

from the moment she hurt you,

you and her are destined to be a tragedy!

Darn it.

Not only did I fail to destroy the divine mission,

but it even linked with White Fox's fate.

I told you

your plot

won't succeed.

-Don't underestimate
-Don't underestimate

-your importance to Honghong.
-your importance to Honghong.

You...

You...

You old witch!

What are you doing?

-Tushan Honghong.
-Tushan Honghong.

One wants the other to forget

while the other refuses to forget the other.

Looks like this divine mission

will only get tougher.

Rather than suffering,

isn't it better to be depleted of emotions and desires?

Without emotions and desires,

what's the point of living?

So,

you don't think I should teach Rushan

the sorrow-oblivion spell?

Yes.

Only by loving someone

will life have meaning.

I hope the person I love...

can remember every little bit of us.

Whether it's funny, absurd, painful,

or happy,

it's what we've been through.

When our hair turns gray,

they'll tell me

I'm all they need in this life.

The person I want to be with

is not anyone else,

but only her.

Black spiritual butterfly?

What is it?

Shi Ji threatened me with Dongfang Luo's life

to meet with her.

Go back and wait for me.

I'll be back soon.

I know I can't stop you from saving him,

but let me accompany you.

-I knew you'd come.
-I knew you'd come.

You're not Dongfang Luo?

-Yes.
-Yes.

-And no.
-And no.

He's under Shi Ji's fox spell.

Not just that.

Shi Ji also infused part of her soul

into his consciousness.

In that case,

we can only capture him

and not k*ll him.

That's right.

If you want to k*ll me,

you have to k*ll Dongfang Luo first.

Yuechu!

Yuechu.

Watch out!

Dongfang Luo, wake up!

Honghong?

Don't be manipulated by Shi Ji.

This isn't what you want.

You said

there are evil humans

and good spirits,

that humans and spirits will be in peace one day.

Dongfang Luo!

Oh no.

Honghong has reservations.

She can't k*ll him.

Honghong!

Honghong.

Dongfang Luo.

I know you can hear me.

Don't forget you said

Honghong's your only tie in the world.

You'll never allow anyone to hurt her!

Trying to trick him into going against me?

Save it.

Honghong,

you're to blame for this ending.

You weren't righteous and selfless enough.

If you'd just died obediently,

you wouldn't have to fight him to death.

Dongfang Luo!

k*ll Tushan Honghong

and I'll let you go.

Dongfang Luo!

Honghong!

Are you okay?

Stay by my side later.

I'll protect you.

I'm sorry.

Chi Shan...

was k*lled by me.

I made many mistakes,

and achieved nothing

I wanted to.

Yuechu.

To meet a friend like you

is the best thing of my return

this time.

I'm jealous.

And I understand why

you can get what you love.

Honghong.

I'm sorry.

This time...

I have to break my promise.

♫ Staring into the moonlit sky ♫

♫ To bury my entire life ♫

♫ Borrowing a shimmer of light ♫

♫ To illuminate you ♫

Tushan Honghong.

You still k*lled him in the end.

For your own ambition,

♫ A thousand years feel like a fleeting moment ♫

how many more will be sacrificed?

♫ This isn't our first time around ♫

In this world,

most people's lives are meaningless.

♫ Despite all the hardships ♫

It's their honor to sacrifice for me.

♫ The warmth of love still remains ♫

♫ If you forget everything in your next life ♫

♫ Miss someone but no one is coming ♫

♫ If you look back ♫

Honghong.

♫ I'm afraid I have to see you leave once more ♫

Be it the past or present,

his deaths are not your fault.

♫ If I make a vow in the swirling snow ♫

This is his choice.

You've done your best.

♫ To bury my entire life ♫

♫ Looking back, how can I make it worth it? ♫

♫ If you forget everything in your next life ♫

♫ Miss someone but no one is coming ♫

♫ If you look back ♫

♫ I'm afraid I have to see you leave once more ♫

I am his...

only friend.

♫ If I make a vow in the swirling snow ♫

♫ To bury my entire life ♫

♫ When I look back, you're under the tree of longing ♫

His only...

friend?

What's wrong?

You've been acting weird since just now.

You don't love Dongfang Luo?

Why do you ask?

Answer me.

I don't.

You also think

Rushan should respect Jianwen.

He can't decide on their relationship on his own.

But have you ever respected me?

Before you'd forgotten me,

did you consult me?

Forget you?

What are you talking about?

We bought

this mask at Human Market together.

Many years ago,

you saved me back to Tushan

and cultivated with me.

You forced me to roast chicken.

Together, we defeated Jin Renfeng,

watched Princess Bu Tai and Shi Kuan get together,

established Spirit Alliance,

and many more.

I've lived in the mini pavilion for 16 years.

I even

confessed to you here.

You rejected me...

and even cruelly forgot me.

If it wasn't for Dongfang Luo,

what was it for?
