=Episode 17=

Beautiful Lady Lan,

drop the act.

I don't know what you're talking about.

Diviner Song, could it be

that you have feelings for me?

What exactly are you?

When did you come to the Chu State?

I'm Beautiful Lady Lan, the King's woman.

Diviner Song...

Aren't I beautiful?

It's you?

What's wrong?

You know me?

Why aren't you dead yet?

What kind of demon are you?

Why did you break into the Chu Royal Palace?

I've come

to destroy you all.

You're behind all the dark arts in the city.

Dark arts?

I'm just granting the wishes

of those consumed by obsession.

Such kindness,

and you call that the dark arts?

How amusing.

If you don't reveal what you are now,

I'll kill you.

You can't kill me.

Wait.

Answer me this.

Do you only have memories of this one lifetime?

How do you know that?

Could it be that you...

What do you mean?

I understand now.

Chu Li created all of this.

No wonder you know too.

So that's how it is.

Grand Shaman,

do it.

Run!

Does it hurt?

We finally found that person.

Thank you.

Thank you, Diviner Song.

I never expected

there would be two of them.

Good thing you killed Lanruo.

She may not die.

I only wounded her badly

to buy you some time.

But just when it mattered most, my inner demon flared up again.

Otherwise,

I'd have found out who that person in black was.

Grand Shaman,

your inner demon...

Get out.

Grand Shaman,

can I help you?

No one can help me.

Get out!

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Mother!

Song Ziyuan!

Grand Shaman.

Grand Shaman!

(Don't come closer!)

Song Ziyuan.

What's wrong?

What happened?

I just

had a nightmare.

It was only a dream.

Don't worry.

In my previous life,

I was driven out of Jinan City,

so I don't know what happened after.

Do you remember, in my previous life,

why the Grand Shaman passed her title to Yun Hua?

The Grand Shaman was in seclusion then too.

She claimed to be unwell.

Later, she passed the title to Yun Hua.

I can't shake the feeling

that something's off about her.

You

still want to take her with you?

Since she despises me so much,

why should I force it?

I just want

to see her one last time,

to let go of this obsession.

All right.

I'll go with you.

How did this happen?

Why are you back again?

Yun Hua,

what on earth happened?

How did it come to this?

Where is everyone else?

None of your business.

If you don't tell me,

I won't leave.

Chu Li,

now I finally understand

why you keep hanging around.

So you're the Grand Shaman's daughter.

She...

She told you?

How else would I know?

The Grand Shaman specifically instructed me

never to let you return to the Shaman Clan.

You're a disgrace to her.

You...

She's provoking you.

What now?

You want to humiliate yourself further?

Do you want

the Grand Shaman to come out and drive you away herself?

Yun Hua was just trying to provoke you.

Don't take it to heart.

No.

The Grand Shaman has always

kept our relationship a secret.

Yet she told this secret

to Yun Hua.

Does she favor Yun Hua that much and despise me?

And here I was, always worrying about her.

I won't think about her anymore.

Now, as she wishes...

I have nothing to do with her anymore.

(Grand Shaman,)

(I will guard it for you.)

By the way,

I haven't seen Fusheng these past days.

Where did he go?

Chu Li, I'm here.

Fusheng,

where have you been?

Aren't we leaving Jinan City soon?

I thought I'd buy some things for the trip.

What if

we never come back?

How could we not come back?

Of course we'll come back.

Right?

You're hurt?

I probably bought too many things.

I'm just tired.

I can barely lift my arm.

What did you buy?

Show me. Come on.

(Song Residence)

You're awake?

Why are you here so early?

You said it yourself.

Every time we meet,

that's one more time together.

♪Moonlight spills over gray tiles and walls♪

♪Wind chimes sway, evoking old times♪

Song Ziyuan,

from this moment on,

every single day,

let's never be apart, alright?

♪Red threads wind through a few lines of the book of fate♪

Alright.

Let's cherish every day.

♪No mountain or sea can bar the way♪

♪I'd burn through every lifetime to be with you♪

♪Countless blades and a river of stars fall into your cool gaze♪

♪An echo of our first meeting at the edge of chaos♪

♪Like vines, love♪

♪Brews the years into moonlight in your eyes♪

♪Through three lifetimes, hand in hand, we walk into oblivion♪

♪Gray-haired, fingers entwined, we still gaze at each other♪

♪Sun and moon may turn, our vow remains♪ (Tombstone)

♪Red threads wind through a few lines of the book of fate♪

♪Yet one passionate look undoes it all♪ (Chu Li)

♪No mountain or sea can bar the way♪

Why are you taking apart

those bamboo slips one by one?

Pay attention.

♪Swords and stars fill your cool gaze♪ (Chu Li)

This is my name?

Got it?

Then how do you write your name?

♪Through three lifetimes, hand in hand, we walk into oblivion♪

♪Gray-haired, fingers entwined, we still gaze at each other♪

That's so hard to write.

Then write it a few more times.

Why did you let go?

Why don't you pay attention?

You're so close to me.

How can I concentrate?

Hah!

You know me.

I always get even.

Okay, okay!

I'll wipe it off for you, okay?

How petty.

Stop looking.

No matter how long you look, she'll never be yours.

♪Night rain falls in the courtyard, shining on mortal partings♪

♪Strangers meet again, past lives gleam in endless hues♪

♪A sharp arrow pierces memory♪

♪Longing spreads like dye♪

♪Beaded curtains keep love and hate apart♪

♪Through boundless grief, love remains hard to sever♪

♪A past bond, a parting dream; when cold ends, purest joy remains♪

♪That year, pear blossoms, verse, and laughter♪

♪One night, snow fell in wild flurries♪

♪All perfection in this world hides regret♪

♪A drop of heart's blood seals love♪

♪No more longing enters dreams♪

♪When all turns to mist, may you and I be safe forever♪

♪Through boundless grief, love remains hard to sever♪

♪A past bond, a parting dream; when cold ends, purest joy remains♪
