(Phantom Love)

(Episode 15)

Why did you keep me locked up here?

Dao Zhi.

You don't remember me?

Of course I remember you.

You've committed many evil deeds as a demon.

How could I possibly forget?

Li.

I've been going through ancient texts these past few days.

I think if we remove the spiritual root,

Shen Que might not die from it.

Are you serious?

Back then, he used love

to seal your spiritual root inside his consciousness.

If the spiritual root is taken out, he might not necessarily die.

But it could cause the bond between you two

to quietly fade away.

So you're saying

he'll forget me completely?

All your memories together over the century will vanish.

And they'll never come back.

Shen Que.

You've forgotten so much.

I'll help you remember, bit by bit.

You demon! You can't beat me head-on.

All you do is talk your way out.

You still think you can trick me?

Do you really want to kill me that much?

I am Shen Que, Prince of Xian.

It's my duty to destroy evil demons.

Even if I have to die for it today,

I'll still kill you right here.

How about

I help you?

Your Highness.

You want my life.

I've already given it to you.

Even if you risk your life for it,

you still can't kill me.

Why doesn't the Soul-Devouring Bone Sword work on you?

What kind of demon are you?

Have you ever actually seen me do anything evil?

Or kill innocent people?

I dare say

that my conscience is clear.

And I've never wanted to hurt you.

What about you?

The demon hunters from Qingdu Temple are after you.

You should just stay in the demon village.

As long as you don't harm the demons,

they won't give you any trouble.

Master.

In this raid,

our disciples suffered heavy losses.

Useless fools.

If they're dead, they're dead.

No need to make a fuss about it.

Master...

You're incompetent.

I got my hopes up for nothing.

I'm ignorant.

I don't get what you mean, Master.

Meng Li has completed her transformation.

The demon clan grows more rampant by the day.

The human world will soon become a living hell.

Master.

The demon clan hasn't actually hurt any innocent people.

If it's just because of Meng Li's transformation,

that's not right.

Please, Master, think it over.

Don't make the wrong call.

What matters most right now

isn't destroying the demon village.

My soul is growing weaker inside this body.

I need to find a new body to possess as soon as possible.

I shouldn't have gone soft that day.

I actually let you spare his life.

It's not his fault.

He wants to kill you.

And you're still defending him?

All he remembers is that he is

the Prince of Xian with the demon-hunting token.

He just wants to slay demons.

What is his fault in that?

Do you realize

that if he loses his memories,

he won't be the Shen Dao Zhi who cared for you anymore?

I'm well aware of that.

Have you felt unwell after you transformed? Did you lose control of it?

I'm always worried that the demon power will backfire on you.

I can control my demonic nature now.

My mind is clear.

Even clearer than it used to be.

Before, I could only enter dreams when the dreamer was sound asleep.

But now, most of those limits are gone.

I can enter dreams anytime, anywhere.

But...

There are still some abilities I haven't unlocked yet.

What abilities?

I haven't figured them out yet.

No rush for now.

Don't worry.

All right.

Let Shen Que stay in the demon village for now.

I'll keep an eye on him. I won't let him get hurt

or hurt you or anyone else here.

Kids, food is ready.

Okay.

Your Highness.

It's me.

Where are you?

I am imprisoned by the demon woman

inside the demon village.

Demon woman?

That Dream-Eater.

It turns out she's the last demon from the legends.

Does Qingdu Temple know about this?

Do you remember

your past, Your Highness?

Remember what?

Nothing.

I'll let Master know

about Meng Li's transformation.

But he's injured and weak.

He's no match for Meng Li.

I just heard that her demonic power hasn't matured yet.

Now's the best time to get rid of her.

However,

there's a barrier set up in the demon village.

We'll need to figure out how to break it.

Where the barrier is,

there must be a cornerstone.

Your Highness, keep an eye out for spiritual objects.

This object can't leave the demon village.

Look into hidden places for a Suanni beast that looks like a lion.

Find the cornerstone

and we'll know how to break the barrier.

All right.

I saw you left me some food.

But I'm not used to eating alone.

Can we

eat together?

I was rude to you earlier.

That was my fault.

It's all because

I don't remember my past.

So I was a little scared.

I hope you

didn't take it personally.

You know I'm a demon hunter.

Instead of guarding against me,

you helped heal my wounds.

Did we

have some kind of history?

Between us,

we really do have a lot of history together.

But there's no rush to figure it all out now.

We've got plenty of time.

All right.

Then I'll look for my memories with you.

Are you looking for something?

Don't get me wrong, Miss Meng.

I'm just curious about things from the demon clan.

That's all.

Shen Que.

Do you know that outside the demon village,

the demon hunters from Qingdu Temple are all hunting you.

You need to stay in the demon village

so that I can keep you safe.

They're hunting me?

(Could it be she's carrying it?)

All right.

Then I'll just do as you say, Miss Meng.

You're so good to me.

Were we

a couple or something?

These eyes...

I think I remember them.

There's no way you remember.

Are you done staring at it?

You don't use a sword.

So why do you have this?

Your Highness.

Don't you think you're too nosy?

Li.

Li, what's wrong?

Nothing.

Nothing?

Then why all the noise?

Your Highness.

If you're done with your tricks,

please leave now.

This object can't leave the demon village.

Look into hidden places for a Suanni beast that looks like a lion.

(Find the cornerstone)

(and we'll know how to break the barrier.)

His Highness informed us that he had identified

the cornerstone of the barrier.

Today, we can finally wash away our past humiliation

and destroy the demon village.

The demons are cunning.

Remember, don't act rashly.

Wait until the barrier is wide open.

Then we'll storm the demon village

and avenge our fallen brothers.

All disciples, listen up.

Let's move out.

Yes.

(Jingui Bank)

(I sense killing intent. This is bad.)

Your demon power is weak.

Why bother struggling?

Today, you're not getting out of here alive.
