Episode 03 (26) The Dream

(Yi City)

Only a few dozen suppression charms.

Will they be enough to hold Xue Yang if he attacks?

He just had to use Empathy

instead of Inquiry.

That lunatic.

Empathy requires one to channel themselves through a spirit

to see and feel their memories as experienced.

It is extremely dangerous but also the most effective.

Both of them are skilled cultivators.

Besides, Senior Mo said

if anything goes wrong,

the Clarity Bell will bring them back to consciousness.

Do not worry.

Who is worried?

This is... the coffin home.

Aren't you going to ask me who I am

and how did I get these injuries, Taoist?

You would tell me if you wanted to. Why should I ask?

Lan Zhan.

Given the time line, this should be...

It should be around after Jin Guangyao sentenced Xue Yang to death.

Huh.

Taoist!

Please wait!

That man would not tell us where he came from.

Aren't you worried he will be a trouble?

I am only helping

someone in need.

When he recovers,

we will part ways again.

But Xue Yang does not seem

like he will just "leave" after he recovers.

Qing,

since you have decided to follow me, you should not steal anymore.

I am going on a night hunt tonight.

Stay here

and look after him for me.

Your foolish kindness will come back to bite you someday!

This girl seems to have been born with white pupils.

Yes. She is a good actress too.

She even fooled me.

Stupid threshold!

I will have the taoist chop you into pieces tomorrow!

Ow... It hurts...

She is clever and bold.

Unfortunately,

her wits are no match

for a crafty and experienced bandit.

You have already recovered, yet you still won't leave.

I will beat you up, you bad man.

Are you going on a night hunt again, Taoist?

Take me with you.

I cannot.

Every time you talk, I laugh.

And if I laugh, I cannot hold my sword properly.

I promise I won't talk this time!

Let me go with you!

(Libation)

Your swordsmanship is impressive indeed.

Signs of livor mortis.

Taoist has indeed been hunting corpses.

Could it be that the delinquent

is actually helping him?

Little blind brat.

What are you mumbling about over there?

I told you not to call me "little blind brat"!

And what was that?

A candy. For you.

It is by your foot.

You are a strange guy.

Eating candy every day. Even though you are not a kid.

Qing,

do you want to hear a story?

There was once a little kid

who loved sweets.

But he had neither parents nor money,

so he rarely got to eat candies.

One day,

the little kid stood and stared longingly in front of a malt candy stall.

A man approached him and asked him to deliver a letter.

He promised him a bag of candies in return.

The kid was delighted.

Unfortunately,

the recipient happened to be that man's enemy.

His enemy could not find that man,

so he beat the little kid up.

The kid was beaten badly.

But that was all right to him, as long as he got his candy.

He struggled to his feet

and searched for that man.

Eventually, he found him.

And what happened after that?

And...

He asked for his candy.

But instead, the man struck him with a whip, and he fell to the ground.

What sort of story is that? It sucks!

It makes me so mad!

Why were you like that when you were a little kid?

If it were me, I would...

I would spit

in his food and water,

and beat him up!

All right. All right.

The story is finished.

It is late. Let us get some rest.

A childhood obsession can affect one's entire life.

You are faring well now.

You should try not to dwell on your past.

I am not.

But my candies are running out,

so I cannot help but remember the days

when I could not have any...

(Yi City)

(Yi City)

Two years later

I have to get back before it rains.

Xue Yang!

Oh, my.

Taoist Song. How rare of you to visit.

Here for dinner?

Why are you so mad?

Xue Yang!

You took advantage of his blindness

and deceived him!

His blindness?

Have you forgotten

who he gave his eyes to, Taoist Song?

And who was the one who took his anger out on him

and told him he never wanted to see him ever again?

Why are you here?

Frost sensed something.

So I followed its directions here.

It has been a long time since I encountered

a corpse in this area, not to mention a lone one.

Did it come from somewhere else?

Song Zichen looked for Xiao Xingchen for two years?

Mm.

He never expected their reunion

to be a parting of life and death.

Where do you think you are going?

Don't bother screaming, little blind brat.

Or should I say... Little liar.

Your precious taoist has already left. He cannot save you now.

Xue Yang,

you monster!

He was so kind to you!

He saved you

and gave you candies every day!

But you betrayed him! You are absolutely mad!

You ingrate!

Speaking of candies...

About that story of the kid and the candy...

I actually have not finished...

Xue Yang!

I...

should not have promised to help you buy vegetables today.

You have hidden yourself by my side for these past years.

What exactly are your intentions?

Take it easy, Taoist Xiao.

They call me a monster and a mad man.

Why not let me finish my story then?

Do not want to hear it?

Well, I want you to!

That day,

the kid chased after the man's carriage.

He wanted his candy so badly.

But that man grew annoyed with him

and struck him with a whip. The kid fell to the ground.

And...

The wheels of the carriage

ran over the boy's finger...

That man

was Chang Ping's father!

Chang Ci'an broke one of your fingers.

Yet you killed his entire clan!

Only about fifty people.

How could their lives make up for my finger?

What about everyone else then?

What about the Baixue Temple?

What about Song Zichen?

That is a question you should ask yourself,

Xiao Xingchen.

Why did you have to stand up for those dregs?

You helped them.

And what happened then?

Chang Ping retracted his claim,

and your name was sullied instead!

You made a mistake from the start!

Xue Yang...

You are indeed...

Disgusting.

Disgusting?

What gives you the right to call me that?

Xiao Xingchen,

do you know what exactly have we been hunting

for the past two years?

Your Frost

is able to pick up the scent of corpses.

But it cannot tell a live being from a dead.

So all I had to do was remove their tongues,

so that they could do nothing but wail.

And spread corpse poison on them...

Silence!

You are lying!

You are just trying to trick me!

Yes.

I have always been lying to you.

And do you know who was it you just killed?

He said I took advantage of your blindness

and deceived you.

But he forgot

who was the person you gave your eyes to.

Saving the world?

What a joke!

You cannot even save yourself!

You think you can change the world just by doing good deeds?

You fool!

You self-righteously proclaim that you punish evil in the name of justice!

But all you have done is bringing trouble to yourself!

And you have caused the people around you to suffer because of you!

In the end, you failed miserably. You are the only one to blame.

You asked for all of this!

(Yi City)

It is better that he is dead.

Only the dead listen.

He is awake!

Hanguang-jun, Senior Mo,

Xue Yang is...

He came as expected.

- Hanguang-jun... - Hanguang-jun...

Over there! There're many corpses!

What should we do now?

That is easy.

Xue Yang

must die!

Enchanting eyes.

Smiling lips of red.

I ask not of good or evil.

Heed my call!

Kill them.

Sizhui.

Senior Mo.

You are the most mature out of all of them.

Stay here and make sure everyone is safe.

Do not be afraid.

I am not afraid.

Senior.

You and Hanguang-jun are really alike.

Alike?

How so?

Whenever one of you are around,

I feel like I do not have to worry about anything.

Some things are just too loyal.

What a pain.

Wen Ning...

is not a "thing".

Give it back!

Give it back to me!

Which?

Frost?

Or Xiao Xingchen's soul?

You don't deserve either one.

Wen Ning,

head to the coffin home and protect Jin Ling and the others.

Understood.

He has some skills, all right.

Qing?

This fog causes hallucinations.

It is difficult to locate him.

I'm afraid it will be difficult for Qing to follow him.

Why bother, Xue Yang?

So what if you got the spirit-trapping pouch back?

You cannot bring back someone who no longer has the will to live.

He doesn't get

to decide that!

Over there.

Little blind brat?

Aren't you afraid that I will tear your soul into pieces?

Come on, Xue Yang,

why are you so determined to bring Xiao Xingchen back to life?

To go back to the good old days?

Do not be naive.

Xiao Xingchen despises you.

Who wants to go back to the past?

I just want to turn him into a fierce corpse! An evil spirit!

He wanted to be someone virtuous, did he not?

Then I will make it so that he never stops killing.

So that he can never be at peace!

Do you really hate him that much?

Then why did you kill Chang Ping?

They took my finger...

So I will wipe out the entire Chang clan, every single one of them!

Oh, I see. For revenge, huh?

But why did you use Frost instead of your Calamity?

Xue Yang,

you did get revenge.

But whose sake was it for?

If you really wanted to avenge him,

the one you should have executed

is yourself!

Blind brat...

Scram!

A teleportation talisman?

It takes a lot of spiritual energy to cast this talisman.

They wanted to take Xue Yang away even when he is already dead.

The Stygian Tiger Amulet must be with Xue Yang.

(Yi City)

Xiao Xingchen was your closest friend.

You should be the one

to take care of Frost.

Taoist Xiao and Qing.

(Yi City)

Taoist Song,

the matter at Yi City has been solved.

What will you do

with Taoist Xiao's remains?

"The body shall be cremated."

"So that the soul may rest in peace."

What about after this?

What do you intend to do from now on?

I will roam this world

with Frost

and exorcise evil

with Xingchen.

When he wakes,

I will tell him...

"I am sorry."

"It was not your fault."

Ai wa shitteiru

I have known love

Kodoku mo shitteiru

The loneliness I have known

Monogatari wa ima owari tsugeru

Now this story is coming to an end

Ugokidasu yume no saki e

The dream began to move forward

Taenu arasoi no hate ni

What awaits us

Nani ga bokura wo matteiru deshou?

at the end of this unbearable battle?

Sore ga totemo utsukushii no nara

If it was a beautiful

Kokoro wa mitasareteku kara

it would fulfill my heart immensely

Ima, tsukiyo ni hibiita uta

Now, the scent of the tree

Kaze hakobu mokuren no nioi

that sings the poem resonates in the moonlit night

Mahou no you ni kokoro wo tsukande

has seized my heart like magic

Itsu made mo hanasou to wa shinai

that will never be spoken of again

I wonder when that desire will fall apart

Parapara hora chiru negai ga

Itsu kara ka na futari dakara

As long as there are two of us,

Kanaerareru to shinjite

I believe we can make it come true

Sora ni kaeru no sa

Return to the Sky

Ai wo shitteiru

I have known love

Kodoku mo shitteiru

The loneliness I have known

Monogatari wa ima owari wo tsugeru

Now this story is coming to an end

Urayamu senaka mae ni

The real behind your envious exterior

Bokura niteiru

We are the same

Hontou wa shitteiru no

Do you really know?

Wasure yuku inori ga kienu you ni

Forget about it so that a wish will not fade away

Arigatou tte itta toki,

When you say "thank you",

Boku no kimochi shitta desho...?

Do you really know my feelings?
