[Love of Petals]

[Episode 11]

Master, I'll go with you.

No need.

You all rest here for a moment.

Alright.

We'll be right back.

Be careful.

Let me take it.

Wushuang.

Wushuang.

Where are you going?

Wushuang.

Wushuang, it's dangerous ahead.

Wushuang.

It's dangerous ahead.

Wushuang!

Wushuang.

Wushuang!

Stop! There's a cliff ahead.

Wushuang, wake up!

Wushuang.

There's a dangerous cliff ahead.

Wushuang!

Where are you?

Master.

Master, why don't you come closer?

It seems I'm not

that important to you after all.

It's just you and me here.

Stop pretending.

Who are you really?

And where is Gu Qingcheng?

I am Gu Qingcheng.

I'm right here.

It's not an illusion.

That is Qingcheng's body.

Master,

aren't you going to save Gu Qingcheng?

It seems I made the right bet

on this girl.

Even when knowing this is a deadly poisonous gas,

you still came.

You're hiding in

a mortal's body.

What kind of hero is that?

It's not for you to decide whether I'm a hero or not.

You may have seen through me,

but you don't dare to harm

Gu Qingcheng's body in the slightest.

What kind of hero are you?

Don't waste your energy.

Even your parents back then

couldn't do it,

let alone you.

Haven't you remembered

who I am yet?

Wushuang.

Wushuang.

What's wrong with you, Wushuang?

Wushuang, wake up!

Wushuang.

Wushuang.

Wushuang.

Wushuang, wake up.

Wushuang.

Are you alright?

Are you okay?

How did we end up here?

What happened to the master?

Just now, you

were walking forward with the flowers in your hand,

and then you jumped off the cliff.

I don't know what happened either.

You...

You're hurt.

I'm fine.

I'm glad you're okay.

These flowers have been drugged.

Oh no.

Master!

The bond between you master and disciple is indeed deep.

Master!

Qingcheng.

You treacherous cat!

How dare you betray me!

Undo her Golden Lock.

Ya Zi.

I can't make the same mistake again.

Please stop.

All of you,

just

die!

Mr. Bai,

can you

use the Soul-Transferring Technique again to switch us back?

Ya Zi's magical powers far exceed mine.

If she doesn't cooperate by looking into my eyes,

there's nothing I can do.

Unless...

Miss Gu,

from now on, every year during the Qingming Festival,

could you offer my master

one hundred stems of purple balloon flowers?

O-Of course.

Thank you.

Miss Gu,

there's something

which took me a thousand years to understand.

If you want to see someone,

you shouldn't just wait for them.

I should go find her.

What are you going to do, Mr. Bai?

If I die,

the spells I've cast will disappear as well.

Your souls will automatically return to their rightful bodies.

What are you saying?

No, Mr. Bai, don't!

There must be another way.

From now on,

when you wear it.

You'll have a family.

Because you are

the best girl in the whole world.

But why

didn't you tell me earlier?

You made me

sad for so long.

Some words,

though missed for a thousand years...

Mr. Bai.

Mr. Bai.

I still want to say to you in person.

Qingcheng.

I have already destroyed your cultivation.

Ya Zi.

You're behind all this, aren't you?

Ya Zi is now in seclusion for cultivation.

We can't let the Yang energy be cut off.

Send the high-quality deer blood

and the freshly extracted Yang energy

to Ya Zi.

Apply this medicine to her feet daily,

then soak them in this spring water.

Within three days,

she will surely recover.

Although that girl is a mortal,

the Lyu Gengyun beside her has boundless magical powers.

I can help you.

I have no grudge against you.

Why are you plotting against me like this?

No grudge?

Lyu Gengyun, oh Lyu Gengyun,

you really are

a noble person who forgets things easily.

On the seventh day of the third month,

under the blood moon,

the Bai Yu's demonic aura ran rampant, driving it into a frenzy.

It slaughtered countless minor demons on Shouyang Mountain.

My parents were among those who died tragically.

Father!

Mother!

I was also severely injured.

Fortunately, I had saved a Jade-Eyed Fox before.

It transferred its spiritual power to me,

allowing me to survive.

Ya Zi.

But you caused him to be captured by the Celestial Court.

Ya Zi.

Lyu Gengyun.

Not only do I have the vengeance for my parents against you,

but also the hatred for my comrade.

How can I not seek revenge?

You mean on the seventh day of the third month,

you saw the blood moon rise

and my father killed your entire family?

That's right.

I saw it with my own eyes.

Impossible.

My father has always

treated all the minor demons like family.

There must be more to this sudden madness.

I saw him with my own eyes

that he killed my parents.

What other

hidden truth could there be?

Let me ask you,

on the seventh day of the third month,

did you witness the descent of immortals from the Heavenly Realm?

Why should I tell you anything?

If you want to live, answer my question!

That day,

I did sense the arrival of immortals.

But with the blood moon in the sky,

I was afraid.

I curled up in my cave, too scared to come out.

It wasn't until I heard my parents' screams

that I dared to take a look outside.

Behave yourself.

Lyu Gengyun.

I don't want your charity.

What has kept me alive all these years

is hatred.

Now,

all my people have been killed by you.

I don't want to live on alone either.

But don't celebrate too soon.

Sooner or later,

you'll end up like your demon father,

unable to suppress your demonic nature.

You'll harm others and yourself.

I deeply regret.

I failed to eliminate the threat to our people.

Inner demon.

The inner demon should perish with the death of the monster.

Why did his leave the body instead?

Could it be that his inner demon

was planted by someone?

Master.

What's going on?

It's nothing.

[Ya Zi, the second son of the Loong, resembles a jackal in appearance. He is fond of blood and killing. He must repay any kindness with food, and will exact revenge for even the slightest grievance.]

[Mr. Bai]

On the way here with Bai,

he told me

he was originally a little white cat.

A thousand years ago,

he fell in love with a human girl named Xiao Cao.

At that time,

he had not yet transformed into human form.

He was accidentally injured

and was saved by Xiao Cao,

who kept him by her side

and named him Bai.

How dare you bite me?

How dare you bite me?

You darn cat, I'll beat you to death!

I'll kick you to death!

I caught you, didn't I?

That's what you get for biting me!

That's what you get for biting me!

I'll kick you to death!

What are you doing?

Ugly freak!

It's you again, you ugly freak!

Run, run, run!

Little white cat?

There's a spot on Xiao Cao's face.

Let me see.

She was always mocked by the villagers.

Does it hurt?

But in Bai's eyes,

she is the most

beautiful girl in the world.

From now on,

when you wear it,

you'll have a family.

Bai and Xiao Cao

became each other's best companions.

Or perhaps,

they had already become family.

Bai.

I only earned two copper coins today.

I'm afraid you'll have to make do with steamed buns.

Is it good?

The money you gave isn't enough.

Could you please return the flowers to me?

You're so ugly.

You should be grateful I'm even buying your flowers.

And you're still complaining it's not enough?

Please, mister, can you just give them back to me?

-Go away. -Please.

Move aside.

Let's not have her sell flowers anymore.

Look at those spots on her face.

She's really ugly, isn't she?

Bai couldn't stand seeing Xiao Cao always being bullied.

He transformed into human form.

Here, take this.

Xiao Cao thought the white kitten had run away.

She was heartbroken.

But little did she know,

the white kitten had been by her side all along.

What's wrong?

You seem to have something on your mind.

I used to have a little white cat.

but recently,

I can't find it anymore.

Maybe

it has already settled down somewhere else.

Don't worry.

The way you wipe your face

is exactly the same as my little white cat used to do.

Actually,

there are some things

Xiao Cao has been waiting for Bai to say to her.

A-Actually...

Actually,

it's quite cold today.

I'll take this bouquet.

Here.

You didn't pay enough.

What money?

When have I ever paid for anything?

Pay up.

Do you know

what the balloon flower symbolizes?

What is it?

Eternal love.

That's a beautiful flower language.

And my

unwavering wait for you.

The doctor said Xiao Cao has spots on her face

and a heart condition.

She won't live past 20.

Bai never expected

that his farewell with Xiao Cao

would come so suddenly.

You are the only one

in this world who has been kind to me,

and you are also

the person I like the most.

Please remember

our promise.

After a thousand years,

we will

definitely

meet

again.

Xiao Cao.

I'm Bai, Xiao Cao.

Xiao Cao.

Xiao Cao!

Actually,

there's no such thing as a thousand-year promise.

Xiao Cao just wanted Bai

to live on well,

so she made this

impossible promise.

[There is a beast, its shape resembles a raccoon with a white head, named Tian Gou. Its sound is like "liu liu" and it can ward off evil.]

[Cat Demon: Three hundred miles west lies the Yin Mountain. The muddy river water flows out from there, flowing south into the Fanze. It is rich in patterned shells.]

Ya Zi

guards the belief of hatred,

while Bai guards the belief of love.

But some tragedies

are destined from the very beginning.

Humans and demons walk different paths.

Even if none of this had happened,

Bai and Xiao Cao

might not have ended up together anyway.

That's not true.

Forgetting is more terrifying than separation by life or death.

But

no matter how many difficulties one experiences,

as long as there's someone you like in your heart,

you'll ultimately find happiness.

Do you really believe that?

Maybe so.

What's going on?

I seem to

feel a bit...

What?

You seem to like the master a bit?

Sit, sit, sit.

Master is upstairs having tea.

It's safe, it's safe.

Everyone, please enjoy the food.

Lan An has prepared several of his signature dishes.

Miss Gu,

do you want

all of us

to help you?

Grandpa Wuyuzi.

Don't call me grandpa.

Advisor Wuyuzi.

What

does Master

usually like?

Master is also a demon.

He simply likes

the gentle spring breeze,

warm spring water,

morning dew,

and the brilliant warm sun.

Yes.

So...

Miss Gu,

are you going to confess to the master?

I don't want to be like

Bai,

who at the last moment of life,

still hadn't expressed his feelings.

So...

This must require great courage.

Miss Gu, since you have decided,

I'll help you.

Really?

Me too.

Yes, we'll all help you.

We're all family, we'll all help you.

Then I...

Lan An fell in love with me back then

because

when she was surrounded and attacked,

I risked my life to save her.

We can create a

chance for a beauty to save a hero.

We'll be masked and pretend

to kill the master.

Kill the master?

Yes.

Kill the master?

Is there any other way?

How about I teach you a few

of my specialty dishes?

You can

cook them for the master.

It's guaranteed to

win him over in one go.

Win him over in one go.

Win him over in one go?

We'll also prepare some fine wine,

get the master drunk,

and take advantage of the dark night.

We'll just push the door open and enter,

so he can't escape even if he tries.

No, no, that won't do.

That's too nonsensical.

You still have time for tea?

They're plotting to

get rid of you.

Tell me,

Gu Qingcheng is just an ordinary person.

But she is around us immortals and demons

every day.

Isn't that not good for her?

Are we talking about the same thing?

Sooner or later,

you'll be just like your demon father,

unable to suppress your demonic nature.

Why are you looking at me?

I want to look at you more.

If you don't take the Flower Spirit soon,

with your current condition,

each look might be the last.

Or the second to last.

Or the third to last.

Who said I'm not taking the Flower Spirit?

I'm just waiting for the right moment.

[Qingcheng Flower Nursery]

Good morning.

Good morning, Master.

I have a lot to do this morning.

Where are you going so early in the morning?

We're almost out of flower seeds and fertilizer.

I'm going to buy some more.

I-It was very windy yesterday.

The flower trellis collapsed too.

I'm going to buy some hemp rope.

I'll set it up this afternoon.

Qingcheng,

I think you should

focus on preparing for the Floral Competition.

The Floral Competition does need good preparation,

but the business at the flower nursery

can't be neglected, right?

There are other people at the nursery.

Focus on the main task first.

I understand, Master.

I'll just go buy some flower seeds.

I'll be back soon, very soon.

I need to find a way to extract the Flower Spirit.

Only then can she return to a normal life, I guess.

How did you find such a nice place?

[Bishui Pool]

Not bad, not bad.

This place is great.

It's really nice.

But won't the gentle breeze be difficult to manage?

Miss Gu,

have you forgotten?

♫The bees and butterflies are lost in your fragrance♫

Shi Huai is from the bird clan.

Controlling the wind is his specialty.

Miss Gu,

♫And I pluck a jasmine branch to place in your hair♫

don't worry.

Leave the wind problem

to me.

Alright.

♫The moon sneaks into your eyes♫

So now we have everything.

♫And I just want to sketch the silhouette of your profile♫

I feel like we still lack

a romantic atmosphere.

Miss Gu,

♫This unintentional encounter is a written deed to unveil the destiny♫

it won't be lacking. When the time comes,

we'll have the big monkey scatter these peach blossoms

♫I am waiting for the wind at the dike, also waiting for you♫

all over the sky.

That will be romantic, very romantic.

♫I play the zither only for you, my heart like the lingering sound on the strings♫

When the time comes, I'll lie down there,

and peach blossoms will fall from the sky.

♫I am also reluctant to leave you♫

I guarantee it will be romantic.

Romantic, romantic.

♫You effortlessly shatter the world's beauty♫

So now we have everything.

Then on that day,

♫Your eyes hold endless tenderness♫

I'll trouble everyone.

Miss Gu, you can rest assured.

♫I write only for you, thoughts folded into a letter♫

We guarantee to complete the mission.

♫The prologue begins with love at first sight♫

[Sun's Mansion]

Wushuang.

Wushuang.

Thank you for your care these past few days.

My wound has healed now, so I won't trouble you any further.

This jar of herbal ointment will work wonders for the wound on your arm,

it's remarkably effective.

You'll see results in three days.

They've all left.

It feels empty now.

What's this?

This is called a crystal cup.

It's used to extract Flower Spirit.

The moment a Flower Spirit is extracted,

its spiritual essence will be suppressed.

The Heavenly Realm won't know about it.

Ye You, where did you

swipe this from?

What do you mean "swipe"?

This has always been mine.

You're such a braggart.

So, what do you think?

Now we can extract the Flower Spirit.

When using this crystal cup,

are there any side effects?

Side effects?

There's no precedent.

But this magical artifact

shouldn't harm anyone.

No.

Definitely not.

At most...

It might make her sleep for two days.

How do we use this thing?

Just use your spiritual power to activate the crystal cup.

Extract two drops of liquid from it.

Gently brush Gu Qingcheng's clothes on her back.

At this point, the crystal cup will naturally...

Attach itself to Gu Qingcheng's body.

After a quarter of an hour,

the Flower Spirit will be extracted, and Gu Qingcheng

won't notice a thing.

How about that?

I'm thoughtful, aren't I?

Alright.

In these few days,

we'll definitely get the Flower Spirit.

Don't just say "these few days".

Which specific day?

Tell me.

Within three days.

Let's not say "within three days" either.

Why wait when we can do it now?

You go ask her today and leave the city with her tomorrow.

Then extract the Flower Spirit, and everything will be perfect.

Good.

What's the matter?

You're reluctant, aren't you?

Who's reluctant?

Let's just go and do it.

It's so late.

She's probably already asleep.

Maybe I should come back tomorrow.

If I go back now,

Ye You will definitely nag at me again.

What about...

Master.

Master, you haven't gone to bed yet?

I was... I was just about to rest.

Tomorrow, I...

I have something to tell you.

You... have something to tell me?

What is it?

Why don't we go out of the city tomorrow?

We can go to...

Bishui Pool to talk.

Alright.

As it happens, I

also have something to tell you.

Then...

See you tomorrow, Master.

Okay,

see you tomorrow.

I made a wrong turn.

See you tomorrow.

Good night.
