May I be like the stars

and you like the moon.

As long as the world remains,

so shall we.

I only wish to stay with the one I love,

watching every sunrise and sunset.

I want to be with you forever.

Eternals and demons walk different paths.

You and she are ultimately different.

Have you ever

truly cared for me?

No.

Never.

In this life and the next,
through all lifetimes…

May we live and die together,

and share life and death as one.

[Moonlight Mystique]

[Episode 16]

But I want something.

What is it?

The Weak Water Stone.

No problem.

I'll give it to you in three days.

Master.

Didn't I tell you to leave?

There's a human girl

who claims to be a friend of
the Master of Bright Moon's.

No one dares to stop her.

Shall we let her in?

No fight

broke out?

This must be Ms. Bai,

the one carrying the Contemplation Stone.

I finally see you in person.

Who allowed you to come?

I know why you're here.

Let's go back and talk.

Don't take unnecessary risks.

Ms. Bai, you came at the right time.

Master Fan just agreed
to stay here for three days.

Since you're here,

why not stay for a few days too?

Chang Wu,

escort our two honored guests to rest.

Treat them with care.

Yes.

This is getting interesting.

Huo,

my aunt was a bit harsh earlier,

but it wasn't about you.

It was because of me.

So don't take it to heart.

You'll know in time

what kind of person she is.

Why would I need to know
what kind of person she is?

The three main demon
branches rarely interact.

If she doesn't like me,

it's alright.

I'll just never see her again.

But...

We're going to be family after all.

Besides,

my aunt is like a mother to me.

You'll see each other often.

You can't just ignore each other forever.

What nonsense are you talking about?

Huo,

you've come with me to the Fox Clan.

Doesn't that mean you care about me?

Mu Jiu, you've misunderstood.

I'm here because I need to do something.

You need to do something?

Have you heard of the Weak Water Stone?

Weak Water Stone?

Forget it. Go back.

I'll go find it myself.

Huo.

I really like you.

You're all I think about.

I'm serious about you.

Mu Jiu,

do you even know what
it means to like someone?

Of course I do.

I don't just like you.

I want to marry you.

I want to spend the
rest of my life with you.

Marry me?

Just because I saved you?

That's gratitude,

not love.

It's because of that gratitude

that you've developed

some fleeting feelings.

But over time,

those feelings will fade away.

When your heart changes,

you'll fall for someone else.

The vows you made

will end up meaning nothing.

I won't!

You will.

Everyone does.

Mu Jiu,

you're younger than me.

There's so much in this
world you don't understand yet.

There are many beauties in the Fox Clan,

and there are countless demons out there

who are far stronger than me.

You and I just happened to cross paths,

spending only a few days together.

You don't even know my past.

So don't make jokes

like this again.

Huo.

Who told you that?

It doesn't matter.

Why do you want the Weak Water Stone?

You met Old Turtle, didn't you?

What else did he tell you?

Do we really need to

argue over everything we say to each other?

Fine.

I won't argue with you.

In three days,

Chang Mei will give the
Weak Water Stone to me.

But in these three days,
anything could happen.

It's dangerous here.

You should leave immediately.

Why is it so hard for you

to explain things clearly?

All you need to do is trust me.

I can trust you,

but trust goes both ways.

Fan Yue,

after what happened
in the Outlanders' City,

I thought things were different between us.

But why are you still like this?

Haven't you always wanted to know

why Mu is better than you?

I can tell you now.

He's better because he held nothing back

and was open and honest with me.

He's better because we
didn't have to doubt each other.

Do you understand?

Ms. Bai has got settled in.

Master.

Do you think the Master of Bright Moon

is angry?

Can't you tell?

He's as protective of that Ms. Bai

as if she were his eyes.

As long as

we treat her well over these three days

and take good care of her,

Fan Yue won't make a fuss.

I still think it's risky to
keep them here for too long.

Master,

why don't we just let Tian Huo go

so we can get them off our back?

It's too late.

Fan Yue came here for the Weak Water Stone.

Even if we release Tian
Huo, it won't change anything.

The Weak Water Stone?

But 800 years ago, it already…

What's between you and me

is not known by the Master of Bright Moon.

Once Jiu's matter is done,

we can just give him
some random spiritual stone

and send him away.

Besides,

now that Ms. Bai is here,

even the almighty Master of Bright Moon

has a weakness.

Maybe

this could be the turning point

for the Emotion Tree.

Master.

Do you want to use the
Master of Bright Moon

as a sacrifice for the Emotion…

Ms. Bai.

Master said

you're a friend of the
Master of Bright Moon's

and an honored guest of Jingyou Mountain.

This is a small gift for you.

Please accept it.

This is...

It's clothing from the Fox Clan.

Since you've come all this way,

we'd like you to experience

the customs and culture
of Jingyou Mountain.

Let me help you put it on.

Chang Mei

is Wu?

How much longer must we keep killing?

What's wrong?

Still not used to these blood-soaked days?

From the way you strike now,

it seems you've come a
long way from the pain you felt

when you killed your first Eternal.

You've adapted faster than I expected,

transitioning from an Eternal to a demon.

I can no longer go back to the past.

Now that I've become a demon,

there's no need to cling to being innocent.

Do you think Eternals are innocent?

Innocence can be faked.

Just like in Ning'an City,

when your master and the others

erased the memories of the humans

to cover up the truth

and went back to being
noble, innocent Eternals.

Don't bring up the past.

Even if I've become a demon,

I won't join you in slandering Lanling.

So you still care for them.

It's that evil insect again.

What exactly are you trying to do

by feeding that evil insect?

Do you know what a puppet is?

Once the evil insect is fully grown,

no matter how powerful the opponent is,

it can control their mind

and turn them into a puppet.

So,

it's not fully grown yet?

When did you start taking
an interest in things like this?

Could it be that

this is why you joined

Cold Spring Palace?

Just asking.

You don't need to answer.

I can tell you.

To refine the evil insect, it
requires the lives of demons,

Eternals, and humans,

999 of each.

We've almost killed
enough demons and Eternals

and just need to kill more humans.

The more you kill,

the greater the contribution you make,

and the more satisfied
Grand Master will be.

Who knows?

He might summon you soon.

Feng Yu, Yan Huo,

deliver Chong Zhao's message

to all Eternal sects.

Tell them to carefully monitor

the whereabouts of their disciples.

Yes.

Be careful.

Jing Lei,

take the disciples of our sect

and head to the human cities
under Lanling's protection.

Chong Zhao's message says

Cold Spring Palace's evil
insect is nearing completion.

They'll surely target humans next.

Lanling has been
guarding this land for years.

We can't let Zhen Yu do whatever he wants.

Rest assured, Sect Leader.

If that old dragon dares to come,

I'll definitely kill him.

You must be careful.

Don't act recklessly.

I'll keep that in mind

and play it by ear.

Good.

Go.

Senior, you're worried about
Chong Zhao's safety, aren't you?

His parents passed away when he was young.

If it weren't for the dire circumstances,

I would never have sent
him to Cold Spring Palace.

He's uncovered such a critical secret.

It seems he's managed
to gain Zhen Yu's trust.

But Zhen Yu is a cunning and ruthless man.

How much suffering must he have endured?

Chong Zhao is clever

and righteous.

What you've done is
for the sake of the world.

When the time is right,

we'll eliminate Cold Spring
Palace once and for all.

Chong Zhao

will return.

I hope so.

Chang Mei agreed so easily?

I also find it strange.

No matter what, the Weak Water
Stone is a treasure of the Fox Clan.

Chang Mei shouldn't
have given it up so easily.

And earlier today, when I
mentioned the Weak Water Stone,

her expression was anything but natural.

Ever since we entered the Fox Clan,

everything has felt strange.

It's no surprise that Chang
Mei wants Mu Jiu to inherit

her position,

but why did she specifically
set a three-day deadline?

For this, she even used the
Weak Water Stone as bait

to keep us here for three days.

I'm afraid that after these three days,

something big will happen.

I think so too.

I'll go ask Mu Jiu again

and see if I can find any clues.

Wait.

I'll speak

with Mu Jiu myself.

Master,

are you worried I might
agree to marry Mu Jiu

because of the Weak Water Stone?

I simply hope

that no matter what happens,

you won't make a decision
that goes against your own will.

Why are you smiling?

Master, you've changed.

The things you say now

sound more and more like
something Bai Shuo would say.

You didn't tell her the
truth about her condition

because you didn't want to put
her in a difficult position, did you?

You're used to solving

everything alone

and protecting others,

but you forget that Bai Shuo isn't fragile.

She's far stronger than we think.

I know.

She's no weaker than anyone else.

So her path shouldn't end here.

But aren't you afraid that hiding the truth

from her will hurt her feelings?

Heartbreak is far more damaging

than physical pain.

As to when I'll tell her,

I have my own considerations.

You came to the Fox
Clan without permission.

Don't act on your own like this again.

Yes.

I'll follow your orders.

It's not just my orders.

Your safety is important too.

By the way, Master,

where is Cang Shan?

During the day, he and
I entered the Fox Clan

and split up.

Judging by the time,

he should be back soon.

How strange.

I've searched all day

and checked every secret
spot Master mentioned,

but I still couldn't sense the
Weak Water Stone's aura.

Forget it.

I'll head back to meet Master

and let the smart ones figure it out.

This is…

the Weak Water Stone?

Chang Mei is Wu,

Ling Long's younger sister?

The earrings she wore...

I'd recognize them anywhere.

That's strange.

Ling Long only had one
younger sister, Chang Mei,

but Mu Jiu calls her Auntie.

So who are Mu Jiu's parents?

Back in Rong Xian's illusion,

you were Chang Mei's guard, Qi,

and Bei Chen played another guard, Ba.

Speaking of which,

why are those two nowhere to be seen now?

Forget it.

For now, Chang Mei's matter isn't
related to the Weak Water Stone.

No need to worry about it.

Bai Shuo.

There's something I need to tell you.

The reason I'm looking
for the Weak Water Stone

is because…

What's wrong?

Bai Shuo.

Bai Shuo.

What did you see?

Fan Yue.

Don't go.

Bai Shuo.

Grand Master.

The last time we met

was in Ning'an City.

But at that time,

you greeted me

with your sword drawn.

Things have changed.

Greetings, Master.

Rise.

The head disciple of Lanling

knows when to bend and when to stand tall.

Very good.

I like it.

But I wonder

how much loyalty

lies beneath this flexibility.

You don't need to question

my loyalty.

You'll see it for yourself.

Chong Zhao,

mind your manners

before Grand Master.

It's fine.

I only value competence.

If he's useless,

no amount of smooth
talk can make a difference.

Fu Ling.

You turned

Chong Zhao into a demon within a month.

You've done

a great job.

I thought Lanling's head
disciple would hold out longer.

Turns out,

he's just another spineless coward.

Chen Ye.

From now on,

Chong Zhao

is one of us.

Be polite.

So this is Chen Ye?

I was rude just now.

From now on,

should I call you Divinity Chong Zhao

or Demon Lord Chong Zhao?

Since I've joined Cold Spring Palace,

I am, naturally, Demon Lord Chong Zhao.

Just get to the point.

Don't be sarcastic.

Grand Master.

According to the spy,

Fan Yue and Bai Shuo

entered Jingyou Mountain a day ago,

but there's been no word

of any conflict with Chang Mei.

If I'm not mistaken,

Chong Zhao,

you and Bai Shuo are old
acquaintances, aren't you?

If I were to send you to Jingyou Mountain,

you'd have a better chance of
bringing Bai Shuo back, right?

Grand Master, your target isn't Fan Yue,

but Bai Shuo?

Fan Yue is protecting her

only because of the Contemplation Stone.

Once she's in my hands,

he'll have no say.

Chong Zhao,

don't you want to

prove your loyalty to me?

I'll be watching.

I won't fail you, Master.

Her forehead mark has opened.

She must have seen another vision

from the Contemplation Stone.

Could the new Contemplation
appear in the Fox Clan?

I must get the Weak Water
Stone as soon as possible.

Cang Shan hasn't returned all night.

He must have encountered danger

while searching for the Weak Water Stone.

Tian Huo,

I'll go ask Chang Mei.

You watch over her here.

Don't leave.

Don't worry.

I won't let anything happen to you.

Master Fan, are you kidding?

When Tian Huo went missing,

you came to me for her.

Now that Cang Shan is missing,

you also came to me.

Do you think Jingyou Mountain is
the backyard of Bright Moon Palace?

You're the one who's kidding.

Cang Shan did go missing
here in Jingyou Mountain.

Since you don't know anything about it,

I'll search for him myself.

Fine.

Master Fan, you're new to Jingyou Mountain

and unfamiliar with many places here.

I'll have someone help you search.

Thank you.

As for the Weak Water Stone,

I have one question.

Since you've agreed to give it to me,

why wait another two days?

It's only two more days.

What's the harm in waiting?

It's a treasure,

so it naturally can't
be taken out so easily.

If you take the treasure away

and Mu Jiu runs off with Tian Huo,

how am I supposed to catch him?

Mu Jiu has no desire

to inherit the position of chief.

Even if he becomes the chief,

he'll still run away.

I'm very curious.

Why are you so sure

that in just two days,

you can completely change Mu Jiu's mind?

Master,

bad news.

The Love...

Since you're busy,

I'll go look for Cang Shan

and disturb you no further.

Master.

Today,

I took the newborn foxes

to receive the blessing
of the Emotion Tree,

but at the end of its strength,

the Tree couldn't bloom at all.

Some people have noticed something is wrong

and are privately discussing it.

Chang Sheng has gone to deal with it,

but I'm afraid this matter

can no longer stay hidden.

I see.

Also,

Cang Shan, the one with
Fan Yue, has gone missing.

It's very likely the doing
of the Emotion Tree.

I'll go check it out myself.

Keep an eye on Fan Yue.

Don't let him suspect anything.

Yes.

Yesterday, I was wrong.

I shouldn't have forced you to marry me.

But I've thought carefully

about everything you said.

I like you,

and it's definitely not just empty words.

Yes.

I'll say it like this to her later.

What are you doing?

I heard Ms. Bai is sick.

I don't know her condition

or what medicine humans take,

so I brought everything I could find.

Take a look.

I'm leaving.

Stop there.

I heard from Master about the inheritance.

You made a bet with your aunt

about whether you could
marry me within three days.

To avoid being the chief,

you're actually betting on me.

Mu Jiu,

you're so bold.

No, no.

Huo, let me explain.

The inheritance has nothing to do with you.

It's my aunt...

Are you a child?

Blaming everything on your aunt.

Aren't you going to make me
fall in love with you in three days?

There are only two days left.

Cat got your tongue?

♫ The person standing far away ♫

I know.

Because of what happened with your parents,

♫ Don't be afraid ♫

you don't want to think
about love and relationships.

I also know

♫ The stars will guide you to me ♫

that no matter how strong someone is,

there are times they feel lonely.

♫ Walk towards me ♫

I'm not that capable.

I can't beat you in a fight.

I'm not as good-looking as Fan Yue,

and I often

♫ My heart feels so... ♫

say nonsense

that annoys you.

But the thought of being separated from you

♫ It's pounding as I wait for you ♫

hurts me.

I don't want that!

Huo,

I really want to be with you.

♫ The stars light up your eyes ♫

I want to be with you forever!

When we're both old

♫ You are my distant call ♫

and gray,

♫ You are my first and last ♫

if you turn around,

you'll still see me here.

Will you then believe

♫ My heart is trembling for you ♫

that my feelings for you are real?

♫ In this moment where
we embrace each other ♫

♫ Let's never let go ♫

Sorry.

I've said too much again.

I won't bother you anymore.

I'll go now.

Do you mean

what you said?

Of course!

Then I'll help you this time.

In two days, I'll marry you.

A fake marriage.

But after the wedding,

you can leave the Fox Clan

and live the free life you want.

When you can truly
take charge of your life,

we'll talk about us again.

Us?

You mean,

you're willing to give me a chance,

right?

Think whatever you want.

Huo, rest assured.

As long as I'm alive…

No, even if I die,

I'll always love you.

You have my word!

The sap of the Emotion Tree is getting

more and more corrosive.

Master Fan.

That area up ahead is wild grasslands.

The trail ends here.

That…

Maybe some young foxes
came here messing around.

Don't worry, Master Fan.

There's nothing special about this place.

Lord Cang Shan wouldn't have wandered here.

Who's there?

Cang Shan.

Master.

- Master.
- Be careful.

No need to stand up.

What exactly happened to you yesterday?

Yesterday, I…

I followed Master's order

and searched all over for the possible
hiding spot of the Weak Water Stone.

But the Fox Clan's territory is massive,

and I didn't notice
anything unusual anywhere.

I kept searching until night fell.

I was planning to return to report to you,

but at that moment,

I actually found

the Weak Water Stone.

The Weak Water Stone?

How did you know

it was the Weak Water Stone?

That's right.

I don't even know what it looks like,

so why did I feel like

I had found it?

Could it be an illusion

caused by some curse?

Maybe.

Then what?

How did you pass out?

I can't remember.

I only recall seeing a huge tree,

and then...

everything went black.

After that, I remember nothing.

According to the Fox Clan,

you were injured by the
corrosive plants in the forest.

But Cang Shan is from the Stone Race.

His body is very tough.

Ordinary plants can't hurt him like this.

Could it be Chang Mei?

Why would Chang Mei harm Cang Shan?

Even if she's unwilling to
give us the Weak Water Stone,

there's no need for her to
deliberately hurt my man.

Today, in the strange forest,

I noticed something in
Chang Wu's expression.

It felt like

someone deliberately moved Cang Shan there

for me to find.

If I'm not mistaken,

the truth behind Cang Shan's injuries

is the secret Chang Mei

is trying to hide.

It's that tree.

Why are you here?

How are you?

I'm fine.

Cang Shan is injured.

Let me treat him first.

Here.

Let me do it.

Here.

Last night, I saw another vision
from the Contemplation Stone.

This time, it was in the Fox Clan.

As expected.

What did you see?

A very, very large tree,

right here in Jingyou Mountain,

shrouded in eerie white mist.

Yes, yes.

The tree she's describing is the one I saw!

That's not all.

I also saw you walking toward that tree,

and its trunk split open into a giant mouth

and swallowed you whole.

Fan Yue.

Cang Shan must have gone missing there.

With so many trees in Jingyou Mountain,

how are we supposed to find it?

Master Fan.

That area up ahead is wild grasslands.

The trail ends here.

I might know the way.

Cang Shan.

Take Bai Shuo back to Ning'an City.

Tian Huo and I will return
after we're done here.

I'm not leaving.

The Contemplation Stone
has shown me a vision.

If I leave, how will you
get the Contemplation?

Then I won't!

What are you talking about?

Without the Contemplations,

how will you break the Seven
Stars Soul Burning Seal?

I'll figure out another way.

Cang Shan!

Take her away.

- Ms. Bai.
- I saw it with my own eyes.

You'll be in danger in Jingyou Mountain.

And yet, at this critical
moment, you want me to leave?

What are you thinking?

Master.

♫ What kind of flower
would never bear fruit? ♫

She's already asking about it.

Just tell her.

You're a human after all.

♫ What kind of fruit never sees a flower? ♫

The more contemplation
power the Stone absorbs,

the more likely your body will fail.

Last night, when the Stone was activated,

you bled and fainted

for the exact same reason.

♫ Withstanding the stillness,
you are a broken piece of me ♫

I don't have the time to think about

the Seven Stars Soul Burning Seal!

All I know is that if you keep
absorbing Contemplations,

you won't live long
enough to break the Seal!

♫ I am the fruit to your flowers ♫

Bai Shuo.

I don't want you to die,

and I won't let you die.

For my sake,

leave this place.

♫ Across thousands of miles ♫

♫ The pain of parting lingers ♫

Master.

The Emotion Tree has run out of nutrients

and even begun to harm people.

Obviously, it has gained consciousness.

How much longer are you going to

delay solving this problem?

What's the hurry?

Even if you want to force me to die,

at least give me time to
arrange my affairs first.

Please calm down, Master.

Elder Chang Sheng
didn't mean to offend you.

He's just concerned…

Shut up!

If you hadn't helped her,

the Emotion Tree wouldn't
have ended up like this!

800 years ago, the Weak
Water Stone was lost,

and the Emotion Tree lost
its source of nourishment.

No one in the clan knew about it.

If I hadn't become an elder,

I wouldn't have learned about it either.

May I ask, Master,

if you still remember

the promise you made to me

when I first learned the truth?

I said,

even without the Weak Water Stone,

the Emotion Tree

won't wither away under my reign.

The Fox Clan is skilled with curses.

If I were you,

I wouldn't follow them so closely.

Once discovered,

you won't even have
the chance to fight back

before they knock you out with a curse.

Why are you here?

I was worried about you,

so I begged Grand Master

to let me come protect you.

You mean monitor me.

You were afraid I'd reveal

Cold Spring Palace's secret plan,

so you followed me here.

Think whatever you want.

If you fail to bring Bai
Shuo back this time,

Grand Master won't let you off.

I'll do the dirty work you
can't bring yourself to do.

You should thank…

Mind your own business.

I have my own way.

What way?

Talking with her about
old times in Ning'an City?

Reminiscing about the late city governor?

Don't you dare disrespect Uncle Bai!

Chong Zhao,

you're now part of Cold Spring Palace.

The blood on your hands
will never wash clean.

To Bai Shuo,

you're as good as someone
who killed her father.

Do you think

she'll still care about the
fragile bond you once had?

Our target this time is Bai Shuo.

In the Fox Clan, you must act secretly.

If Chang Mei and the others find out,

we'll only find ourselves in trouble.

One more thing.

Don't say I didn't warn you.

In Jingyou Mountain,

a confrontation between
you and Bai Shuo is inevitable.

If you're still clinging
to those old feelings,

your only fate

will be death.

Stay, not stay.

Stay, not stay.

Bai Shuo.

We should set off.

You know what?

The food here is actually pretty good.

Give it a try.

Try some.

We'll leave after you eat.

I have to say,

they're really tasty.

Don't worry.

It's just a pill

that temporarily paralyzes you.

It won't kill a demon.

At first, I thought

Fan Yue was looking
for the Weak Water Stone

to break his Seven Stars Soul Burning Seal.

In the end, it's because of me.

If I continue gathering
Contemplations, I'll die.

But if I stop gathering them, he'll die.

Either way, one of us is doomed.

He wants me to live,

so I should let him live too.

To activate the Contemplation Stone,
we need to gather the Five Contemplations.

If he misses this one,

he might never find it again.

I've come to understand

Fan Yue's personality now.

Most of what he says

isn't truly what he feels.

He cares for Tian Huo,

making sure she
doesn't go against her will.

He also cares for you,

asking the injured you to send me back.

But who will care for him?

That's why

I can't leave.

I have to protect him,

just like he's protected all of us.

Don't you agree?

Bai Shuo.

Bai Shuo!

Bai Shuo!

Chong Zhao?

Do I look good?

Wu,

I'll definitely marry you in the future.

And I'll give you

the grandest wedding the
Fox Clan has ever seen.

Nonsense.

My sister would never let me marry you.

Really?

Yes.

But I don't care.

I'm going to marry you no matter what.

Wait a little longer.

After tomorrow,

I'll come to be with you.

Auntie!

Auntie!

Tian Huo finally agreed to marry me!

I'm going to marry her!

I've thought about this seriously.

Huo has a hard time believing in love

because of her parents.

I must seize this chance

and let her feel my sincerity.

Auntie, you've always spoiled me.

You have to help me

throw her the grandest wedding
the Fox Clan has ever seen.

And then,

I'll swear in front of everyone in the clan

that I'll love her for the rest of my life!

You brat.

Throwing a wedding like that isn't so easy.

It'd take at least a month or so.

How about this?

Tomorrow, you'll attend the ceremony

to inherit the position of chief first,

and then...

Why am I still inheriting your position?

I'm getting married.

In the future, I'll travel across

the Eastern Continent with Huo.

Didn't we agree that

as long as Huo agreed to marry me,

I'd be free?

I remember it being somewhere around here.

The traces in the forest
are completely gone now.

The Fox Clan must have
deliberately covered them up.

Let's split up and search.

Find that tree as quickly as possible.

We can't delay this further.

You escaped from Cold Spring Palace?

Since you're fine,

why didn't you go back
to Ning'an City to find me?

Have you forgotten what happened

in the Outlanders' City?

Between Fan Yue

and Chong Zhao,

pick one.

Whoever you choose,

I can let him go.

Fan Yue!

I choose Fan Yue.

♫ No matter if I'm drunk or not,
I just want to be reckless once ♫

Back then, I chose him

because he had the best chance…

It was because he was powerful

and I wasn't as good as him.

♫ Because love is thrilling ♫

That's why you made that choice.

♫ If you tear open my heart ♫

♫ I can hold you a little tighter ♫

♫ This pain will gradually fade ♫

Chong Zhao.

♫ Time withers the moonlight ♫

I'm sorry.

At the time, it was a matter of expediency,

♫ All that's left is pitch darkness ♫

but I truly did

hurt your feelings.

♫ I want to tear apart ♫

You should blame me.

♫ This sky for you ♫

It's fine if you don't
want to see me again.

But my concern for you is real.

♫ A lifetime of guarding
everything with you ♫

I...

♫ Crossing the abyss to fulfill our vow ♫

♫ I'll leap without a
thought for tomorrow ♫

♫ This moment feels like forever ♫

♫ I've missed too much time in my life ♫

♫ I'll throw myself
into this flame for you ♫

♫ Even if I'll perish ♫

What's wrong?

♫ At least I can still kiss your face ♫

I'm fine.

♫ Burn out my waning moon ♫

I've been doing well recently.

Don't worry about me.

♫ In exchange for a lifetime of passion ♫

If you say that, then you
definitely haven't been doing well.

You've encountered something difficult,

haven't you?

Also,

why are you here in the Fox Clan?

How did you know I was here?

What are you two doing?

Bai Shuo.

I told you to go back,
but you didn't listen.

Now you're here flirting with him.

Bai Shuo,

you've really surprised me.

I...

Where Shuo wants to go

and what she wants to do

have nothing to do with you!

I'm talking with her.

Who are you to interrupt?

The two of us grew up together,

facing life-and-death
situations side by side.

Her business is naturally my business.

Get over yourself.

Life-and-death situations?

You're nothing but a loser.

You're of no use to her in
life-and-death situations!

You'd better go back to Lanling

and train for another few hundred years.

Fan Yue!

Don't take his words to heart.

Since we've run into each other,

you should come back with me.

♫ A lifetime of guarding
everything with you ♫

No!

No need.

♫ Crossing the abyss to fulfill our vow ♫

There's something I need to do.

♫ I'll leap without a
thought for tomorrow ♫

Shuo.

I'll come to find you again.

♫ This moment feels like forever ♫

♫ I've missed too much time in my life ♫

♫ I'll throw myself
into this flame for you ♫

♫ Even if I'll perish ♫

Chong Zhao!

♫ At least I can still kiss your face ♫

♫ Burn out my waning moon ♫

What are you doing?

Isn't that a question I
should be asking you?

♫ In exchange for a lifetime of passion ♫

Don't you think you owe me an explanation?

Life-and-death situations?

You're nothing but a loser.

You're of no use to her in
life-and-death situations!

You'd better go back to Lanling

and train for another few hundred years.

Poor thing.

You came all the way here to find her,

like a stray dog
returning to its old master.

But unfortunately,

a dog that left its
home is just a wild dog.

Even if it dies by the roadside,

no one will spare it a glance.

It was Zhen Yu who sent
me to Jingyou Mountain,

not…

Grand Master sent you
here to capture Bai Shuo.

Have you made your move?

It's not the right time yet.

Timing isn't something you wait for.

Tonight, I'll lure Fan Yue away,

and you can take the
chance to capture Bai Shuo.

No!

Tian Huo and Cang Shan are with Fan Yue.

If you go alone, it'll be too dangerous.

Then what do you suggest?

I noticed Fan Yue rushing back

from the depths of the forest.

It seems they've come to Jingyou Mountain

for a specific purpose.

If we can sow discord between the two sides

and have Chang Mei hold off Fan Yue,

not only can we bring Bai Shuo back,

but we might also

get rid of Fan Yue for Cold Spring Palace.

Divinity, I'm so impressed.

When you're ruthless,

even I, a demon, feel
ashamed by comparison.

But tell me,

is killing Fan Yue

for Cold Spring Palace,

or is it your personal grudge at play?
