ADAPTED FROM BAI LU CHENG SHUANG'S LOVE IN THE CLOUDS

My Lord, did you drain your own power to refine

the Golden Millet Dream directly?

Planting the Golden Millet Dream within someone

takes an enormous amount of spiritual power,

and the process feels like being flayed alive.

You did all this so Ming Yi could take it directly, didn't you?

Did you really go that far?

Sorry, Master.

I made an oath and promised you

not to let Golden Millet Dream appear again,

but

I must save her.

It's boring if you don't go crazy once.

I… I really don't know what to say.

You said you'd use the Golden Millet Dream as bait

to avenge Fairy Bo,

so you hadn't used it on yourself.

And now, you suddenly offered it to someone.

You exhausted a lot of your spiritual power,

so you probably cannot use the Spirit Well anymore.

I'm worried that you'd suddenly do something rash

at the Qingyun Tournament,

the Heavenly Grief in you relapse again suddenly,

but you can't even use the Spirit Well.

So you'll just die suddenly.

If I had known, I shouldn't have listened to you

and killed Ming Yi.

All right.

It's my first time hearing you say so many things.

Drink a little.

This is just temporary.

Spirit Well isn't gone.

I don't know what to say.

I don't agree with you and Ming Yi being together.

Now that we have given her so much as the betrothal gift,

you must marry her no matter what!

Well said!

-Do you think I was serious? -Of course.

I…

I'm sure she knows everything now.

I hope she is sensible

and will marry you immediately to repay you.

Buxiu, no one offers a medicine

and expects the other person to marry him in return.

Besides, why must she repay me?

Did you not even tell her that?

I…

You are not giving her an ordinary medicine.

You are giving her your life!

Indeed, she doesn't know it was me who saved her.

She thought it was Situ Ling

who exchanged his heart's blood for her lifespan.

What in the world?

I don't know what to say.

Heart's blood can only extend one's lifespan for a few hours.

Did she think

it could repair the spiritual veins destroyed by Heavenly Grief?

My Lord, Ming Yi isn't a fool.

Why would she believe that?

Situ Ling must have acted like a magnanimous savior too.

Oh, that was my heart's blood. I stabbed myself for you.

Ming Yi was charmed. And so touched she was that…

My Lord, have you told Ming Yi about Situ Ling's real identity?

Not yet.

I understand.

I'll go and kill Situ Ling now.

What do you understand? Come back.

You're not going to tell Ming Yi Situ Ling's true identity

and you won't allow me to kill Situ Ling.

Now, you're letting Ming Yi think it was Situ Ling who saved her.

How can you marry her if you do that?

Ming Yi isn't that kind of person.

She won't marry someone because they saved her.

It's pointless.

I want her

to marry me willingly.

I forgot to tell you.

I moved to Shouhua Academy as well to make training more convenient.

I'm staying downstairs.

These are from Granny Xun. Take them.

ARTIFACT INTRODUCTION

MAGICAL GUQIN INTRODUCTION

Immortal Ji.

We meet again, old friend.

-Immortal Situ. -Ming Yi.

Can I go in?

Please come in.

Why are you here?

I heard Fairy Zhang Tai say you've moved to Shouhua Academy.

Ming Yi, have you recovered?

Yes.

It's all thanks to you, Immortal Situ.

You've helped me so much.

I don't know what I can do to repay you.

-Tell me… -Ming Yi.

Your identity will be exposed easily here. You must leave with me.

-I can't leave. -Why?

I promised the Empress to help her out at Shouhua Academy.

Besides, the tea gathering will happen soon.

I can't leave.

Ming Yi.

Ming Yi. You said you were cold last night.

I prepared a blanket specially for you.

Immortal Situ, you're here too?

You didn't even tell me we have a guest.

Forgive me for not welcoming you.

Since he's already here, let's invite him to have a meal together.

Ming Yi, why is he here?

-He is here… -Of course, I'm here to accompany my wife.

-What's wrong? -Ji Bozai.

I'm sure you haven't eaten yet, Ming Yi.

The teahouse has a few new dishes.

Let me treat you to a meal.

How can we let you treat us?

You are our guest, Immortal Situ.

I should be the one treating you.

What do you say, Ming Yi?

I…

I want…

I want both of you to eat without me.

Are you not coming?

Fresh flowers!

Have a look at some fresh flowers, miss!

Have a look at the flowers.

Lanterns!

What a coincidence. Did you come here to eat, too?

Let's eat together.

The new dishes taste better than the old ones.

Try them, Ming Yi.

Only two people can sit here.

Why are you still here then?

Don't you think you're a nuisance?

Here. This is your favorite.

You should try this instead.

Something that you haven't tried before is always better.

Let me try it.

It tastes so bad.

It's rancid.

Fine. Enjoy the food. Don't waste anything.

I'll be leaving.

They will pay for me.

Sure.

Immortal Situ, thanks for paying the bill.

However, I must remind you that you know who you truly are.

If you insist on approaching my wife, Ming Yi,

and bring trouble to her,

I won't forgive you.

What do you mean?

-Sir, pack them for me. -Sure.

Buy two, get one free!

Final two pairs!

-Thank you. -Take care.

Sorry.

Watch where you're going!

Fresh flowers!

Take a look at some fresh flowers!

Excuse me.

Fuyue.

No matter how much I've done

and how long I've waited,

when I see her eyes again,

they

are still the same as before.

She does not see me.

My Lord,

I will never betray you.

If you want, I can share my lifespan with you.

Is it worth it?

You did so much for Ming Yi, but it was all in vain.

Have you asked yourself the same question as well?

I thought it was worth it in the beginning.

But I asked myself again and again today,

what can I do for her

that I haven't done yet?

I could even give up my life,

but she still

doesn't care about me.

Who hurt you so badly?

She set up the Yaoguang Mountain Fire Array.

I duped her with a secret skill of Yousu Fox Tribe

and made a copy.

They won't find out.

BO'S MEDICAL CLASSICS

My Lord, it's time to think about yourself now.

You can use this to complete His Majesty's mission

or use it to create the Golden Millet Dream.

I wanted to use the Golden Millet Dream and grew spiritual veins in the past

for her.

If I can't be with her,

all of this is meaningless.

Only by obtaining spiritual veins

and rising to a high position

will we not be bullied by anyone else.

My Lord, you can become the person you want to become

for your own sake.

Can I?

You're back.

Yes.

I followed Situ Ling to the cliff by the border.

However, he used a spell to cover all his tracks.

It's fine.

Go to the tea gathering with me after this.

Keep a close eye on Zhushui's and Yaoguang Mountain's movements.

Once they make a move,

they'll surely give themselves away.

We just need to wait for them to make a mistake.

At least for now, Situ Ling bears no malice toward Ming Yi.

Maybe not toward Ming Yi,

but surely toward you.

You really are talking more and more now.

Isn't that good?

Good.

Very good.

You feel more human now.

My Lord, did you experience something good today?

Even if you don't tell me, I can guess it.

I'm sure it's related to Fairy Ming Yi.

Did Fairy Ming Yi finally decide to marry you?

I told you so.

Your previous method of pretending to be cold won't work.

You need to tell her so she knows your true feelings.

I want to tell her my feelings as well.

If only I had a chance.

What did you say, My Lord?

I said you were right.

You were right.

You haven't fallen for anyone before.

You are clueless about many things.

In my opinion, you should meet

some female dragons, butterflies, or phoenixes.

Don't be so violent to the point that you've turned into a fool.

Take a look.

Take a look, miss.

-I want this. -Sure. Let me wrap it up for you.

-Osmanthus cake! -Come again.

Sure.

Zheng Tiao is such a jerk.

I sent him a total of 200 missives.

Unless he's dead,

why would he reply to me with just a "I'm fine"?

He's mostly dead.

Tell me. Do you think he is married already?

Or is he cheating on me?

I'm Jixing Abyss's fairy.

Am I being lied to by this brat?

-No. -You won't.

I asked you to drink but I didn't ask you to get drunk.

-Slowly. -Be careful.

Mind her head.

-Lie down. -All right.

You can follow me to the tea gathering and ask him about it.

How are you getting along with Ji Bozai?

Well…

Well…

I…

The Qingyun Tournament is the priority now.

The Qingyun Tournament is the priority.

-Men can go away. -Go away.

-Cheers. -Cheers.

You should sleep.

Ming Yi, something just came to my mind.

Why don't you join Shouhua Academy as an official warrior?

There's something wrong with the wine.

-What? -My head hurts.

Ming Yi.

Ming Yi.

Ming Yi!

Master Ming Yi.

Have some tea and take a break.

Chen Xi, I've always wanted to ask you this.

I didn't take you in as my disciple. Why do you keep calling me your master?

The Empress said you came to Shouhua Academy

to teach me forging.

Therefore, you are my master.

Sit.

There are many warriors who want to participate in battles.

Why do you want to become a forger?

My brother was also a forger.

He was attacked by Gudiao

when he tried to save his friends

and died in the Qingyun Tournament.

Your brother might no longer be around

but the skills he taught you allow you

to make more powerful weapons to help others,

so that those with weak spiritual powers

can protect the people they love.

From today onward,

I will monitor you daily so you'll work hard

and forge more powerful weapons to protect Jixing Abyss.

Are you ready?

I'm ready!

Master!

Immortal Situ, you asked for me?

Something urgent happened back home. I'm here to bid farewell.

Ming Yi,

I expended my heart's blood for you.

Do you appreciate this favor?

-Of course. -Then, I'm sure you still remember

your promise to me.

Do you now know what you want?

Ming Yi,

is Ji Bozai your final decision?

No. I choose myself.

I can't repay your kindness.

I'll be loyal to you forever,

but we are only friends.

I know you well.

However,

I also know

that if it was Ji Bozai before you,

you would never be so decisive.

-This is… -Don't be nervous, Ming Yi.

To me, you are the most important person in this world.

So, I will surely protect you.

Ming Yi,

is Ji Bozai

your final decision?

No. I choose myself.

If it was Ji Bozai before you,

you would never be so decisive.

My Lord, you did so much for her

yet she only saw it as a favor.

I highly doubt she treats Ji Bozai the same way.

Enough.

I just want her to be safe.

Is that so?

Ask yourself, My Lord.

Are you sure you just want her to be safe?

There has never been a hopeless romantic from Zhushui Spiritual State.

Are you sure you don't want anything in return?

Chao Yuan.

Can you see your true self now?

Want nothing in return?

That is just your disguise.

Throughout your lowly life,

you've never gotten anything you want.

And that makes you afraid of admitting what you want.

Ask yourself.

Are you asking for a lot?

Not at all.

You only want her by your side.

If you are as strong as Ji Bozai,

do you think she will reject you?

As long as I can save you, I can do anything.

Merge with me!

Didn't you feel the power before?

The only thing that can help you when you're in despair

will always be power!

Merge with me!

Only with my power

can you possess her

and everything you want!

TIGER-SUBDUING SHIELD BLUEPRINT

This will make the power of the shield stronger.

I need to draw with a smaller brush.

DUAL CULTIVATION MANUAL

I'm sure I have a smaller brush.

This…

Don't simply come into my room!

I don't know when Master She gave this to me.

This…

What is this?

Isn't this yours? Why are you asking me?

I…

Why did I bring it from Yaoguang Mountain?

Twenty-Seven. I saw that.

Why are you picking up random items all the time?

I haven't reprimanded you for picking up Ming Xin's shoes.

What is this? It looks nice.

See? You just pick up all kinds of junk.

Twenty-Seven brought it to me at Yaoguang Mountain.

Cats like to pick up shiny items.

I don't know what it is. I…

-Why do you have one as well? -This is a Recording Mirror.

I found my half at Dragon Carp Terrace.

After Buxiu's investigation,

the name list left behind by Mu Qibai is this Recording Mirror.

When Mu Qibai made a deal with the Upper Three Realms,

he split a Recording Mirror in two.

They'll each keep one half to keep each other in check.

Immortal Ji, are you saying that the two pieces we have now

are the Recording Mirror?

Your half must be Mu Qibai's.

Mine is Ming Xin's.

Twenty-Seven is quite smart.

Did he just so happen to steal this from Ming Xin?

Who knows?

Perhaps it's because you are the owner. The cat is just like its owner.

Although we are still missing one piece, it's enough to see some things.

The Heavenly Grief you asked for.

Thank you, Lord Hanfeng.

With the Heavenly Grief,

Ming Xian will no longer be the Warrior God of Yaoguang Mountain.

It was Ming Xin who made the deal with Mu Qibai.

I can recognize his voice even if he is mute,

let alone not seeing his face.

Twenty-Seven is an amazing thief. He stole this.

Are you missing something?

It seems like Ming Xin was the one who poisoned you with Heavenly Grief.

The truth is not surprising at all.

The missing piece of the Recording Mirror is probably with Ming Xin.

I must get it during the tea gathering this time

so that I have complete evidence

to prove that it was Ming Xin who poisoned me.

Oh, one more thing.

You were grateful to Situ Ling for saving you

and didn't expose his identity.

I asked Buxiu to find out who he is.

You know everything now?

Yes.

I also found out Situ Ling is the youngest son of Zhushui's Emperor,

Chao Yuan.

He came to Jixing Abyss for the Golden Millet Dream.

He saved me after I came out of Wugui Sea.

He told me honestly that he was from Zhushui Spiritual State

and that he came to Jixing Abyss for the Golden Millet Dream.

Moreover…

Are you all right?

We must leave here immediately. Zhushui Spiritual State has a backup plan.

How do you know that?

No wonder he went to the Sunken Abyss that day

without waiting for us.

He even gave Master She the Bo's Medical Classics he found.

That was when Master and I started feeling suspicious.

In that case, he is still a dangerous person.

You're back.

Father.

I've found the complete formula for the Golden Millet Dream

and all the herbs required.

However, the catalyst herb, Diwu tree's core,

has been extinct for 10,000 years.

I don't know where to find it.

Please aid me, Father.

Do you think I will have something that has been extinct for 10,000 years?

If it cannot be found in Zhushui Spiritual State,

then there's no need

for this formula to remain in this world.

BO'S MEDICAL CLASSICS

Father, I'm the only one who has read the whole book.

I remember every word in it

and can copy it down any time.

Once I make this medicine, I'll surely hand it over to you, Father.

Chao Yuan, you've achieved this mastery with the Thousand Insect Spell.

You are also braver than you were in the past.

You actually dare negotiate with me.

Great. I like it a lot.

You've laid low for many years.

Tell me what your ambition is.

I want to grow my own spiritual veins

and become the ruler of Zhushui Spiritual State

that everyone admires.

I want to become the heir whom you recognize.

I want you to tell me everything.

Under your arrangement,

what will become of Zhushui Spiritual State

and the Qingyun Tournament?

I want to overcome destiny itself.

Among my sons, you resemble me the most.

Two years ago, Jixing Abyss lost in the tournament

and had to offer a tribute to Yaoguang Mountain and our realm.

The rarest of the tributes were two wilted roots of Diwu tree.

The one offered to Yaoguang Mountain was stolen by Bo Yulan.

That was why Bo Yulan was caught by Mu Qibai.

The remaining one was sent to this realm.

It's up to you now to nurture it back to health.

Thank you, Father.

Come out.

Your Majesty, congratulations on soon obtaining theGolden Millet Dream.

You may rule over the Six Realms.

There's no need to flatter me.

I summoned you here to give you an important task.
