Original subtitles

The 22nd year of the reign of Xuanzheng,

the year of Guiwei.

= Nevernight, Qishan =

The Nie Clan, Lan Clan, Jin Clan,

and Jiang Clan attempted to conquer Nevernight.

They fought hard for weeks,

but to no avail.

Humph!

Pathetic!

Wen Ruohan!

You...

Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation = The Reborn =

Episode 1 Reunion

Clan leader, Zewu Jun is here.

Oh, let him in.

= Jinlintai, Lanling =

Xichen.

Guangyao.

You've had a long journey,

you must be tired.

Looks like

you stayed up all night working again?

I'm a man with little talent,

yet you all trusted me and made me the leader.

I can't let you down.

Guangyao, do not undervalue yourself...

You were a hero in the Sunshot Campaign.

If you hadn't killed Wen Ruohan,

tens of thousands more would have died.

Don't mention it.

Alright, you're always so modest.

I heard

you planned to ask each clan for manpower and money

to build another 2,000 watchtowers?

Yes.

Few of the major clans live in remote places,

where evil spirits tend to haunt.

If there's a situation, the clans on duty

can alert the rest of us in time.

The older ones have limited coverage.

I hope this time,

we can protect more people from evil.

Good.

However,

many thought you were just filling your pockets.

The watchtowers have proven to be useful,

but building 2,000 more in one go...

You'll face even greater opposition.

It's fine.

I have a clear conscience.

Besides,

I have you to support me, right?

The three of us took the oath

to protect the world and maintain peace.

Mingjue died early,

leaving unfulfilled ambitions.

You're committed to our common cause,

I'll support you with whatever you need.

Xichen, that's very kind of you.

If I recall,

the anniversary of his death is approaching.

It is.

Huaisang just wrote to me

and asked when we'd arrive,

so he could get ready.

I've almost sorted out my affairs,

so I can leave anytime.

What about you?

Oh, things have been good at home.

Wangji brought back an arm

from Dafan Mountain the other day,

an unusually ferocious one.

An arm?

Can you tell me more?

That's all I know.

Before I left,

I'd entrusted all the domestic affairs to Wangji.

He'll handle it.

= Cloud Recesses, Gusu =

Lan Zhan was so keen on capturing and punishing me

because I practiced dark arts, and now?

What will he do this time?

Oh no!

He'll probably come for me after

he sorts out the severed arm.

I'd better get going.

Since when does Lan Zhan start making flutes?

The wine and the flute, I'll take it all.

Apple, let's go!

Seriously?

Don't you think this place is boring?

This place is heavily guarded...

My problem is that I don't have a pass.

I need to figure something out.

Ha, he's alone.

It's my chance!

Wow! Whipping scars?!

There are so many...

What unforgivable sins did he commit?

Nice and easy!

Lan Zhan?!

I...

I found the pass on my way.

I was about to give it back!

Han... Hanguang Jun.

I can explain!

I wasn't watching you bathe!

Oh dear, how will he punish me this time?

That scar is...

Hanguang Jun! Bad news!

The arm is acting up!

The elders cannot control of it!

It's been almost an hour since he went in,

why is the bell still ringing?

The wrath is stronger than it was in Mo Village!

What the...

We've never seen something like this before!

Childe Mo, you can't go in!

Open!

Hey! Can you behave?

That's no ordinary door, it won't open for you!

What?! -What?!

Stop playing!

What?

This arm was cut off from a man,

yet we couldn't summon his soul.

Is it because...

The soul of the arm's owner

has been split just like his body.

Both the body and soul?

Whoever did it must have really hated him.

Hanguang Jun!

Help the elders with their wounds.

Yes.

Interesting.

You... You are still standing?!

-Ha? -I thought you were...

Don't underestimate me!

Wangji, this gentleman is?

Uncle, his name

is Mo Xuanyu.

Mo Xuanyu? I'm impressed.

So, you think it's not that simple?

Yes, its target is probably us, the Lan Clan.

And your reasons?

The flags we used in Mo Village could only

summon spirits lingering nearly.

Given what this arm could do,

if its target was the villagers,

they'd have been killed long ago. So...

It showed up after we arrived.

I suspect someone deliberately

made the arm appear

at Mo Village back then.

If so,

we're also responsible

for the slaughter at Mo Village.

You are not responsible for that.

It should be

whoever brought the arm.

Anything?

Soul Expeller,

a kind of dark magic.

It can ward off the original soul.

Based on what I see,

whoever did this to the arm's owner

is highly skilled.

Can we remove it?

We can.

But to remove such sophisticated magic...

I'm afraid it'll take me some time.

Mo Xuanyu specifically summoned me,

and the arm appeared in Mo Village.

And Wen Ning...

It seems

someone doesn't want me to rest in peace.

Ah? Am I seeing things?

I think the arm just... moved?!

Hanguang Jun!

Multiple reports of restless evil spirits.

They need backup!

Time?

Midnight.

All in remote and isolated places.

All within 500 miles from here.

The arm acted up,

and now restless evil spirits...

We should check on these places.

Yes. Pass my order:

send 20 disciples to each place.

Yes!

I'll leave tomorrow

to try to find more clues.

There's more than one place.

Where should we start?

Come on, isn't it obvious?

The place it's pointing at.

= Huaicang Mountain =

It pointed to northeast.

We must be close.

I can't sense any evil spirits here.

Why are you following us?

Please spare us!

I heard evil spirits haunt this place,

so I came... to try my luck.

What do you mean?

You looking for something?

We practice Diabolism.

We seek weapons left by the Yiling Patriarch.

People say that

the Ghost General,

Stygian Tiger Amulet,

Chenqing and other weapons

were all destroyed long ago.

But the Ghost General

appeared on Dafan Mountain recently.

Maybe,

the other weapons are still there.

You think you can find anything

at a deserted place like this?

You never know.

They can't be easy to find.

But I asked around.

Something weird happened here before.

11 years ago,

many people from the nearby villages went missing.

People heard strange noises from the woods...

It was a total mystery.

Many moved away.

A few months later,

things went back to normal.

But two days ago,

the strange noises reappeared!

Poor thing.

She's had a tough life.

What do you mean?

11 years ago,

she and she alone made it back alive,

and she went crazy shortly after.

No one knew what happened to her.

The sun is rising!

Evil spirits, be gone!

She must have seen something

on the mountain.

When cold rain’s falling from the sky

Will you stay by my side?

yamanai ame ni utare You were crying

anata wa naiteita getting hit by the unceasing rain

awai yume ni mi wo makase I gave up myself to the fleeting dream

soba ni itakatta wanted to be by your side

kakusenai omokage wo taguriyosete I'm hauling in the vestiges I can't hide

ima sekai no sumi de and now I reach the corner of the world

Can you hear me now?

I'm here, alone

fukaku sasu hodo ni The deeper I stab

tsuyoku nare to negau the more I hope to be stronger

Hold my hand

tada egaita no wa One thing I imagined is nothing

sorezore no michi wo eraberu toki but a time when we can choose our own way

hana wo sakaseru toki A time to make flowers bloom
