[Legend of Fuyao]

[Episode 37]

The person you're filing a complaint against is in Taiyuan.

We're in Tianquan.

Go sue her in Taiyuan.

Madam!

Although this woman is from Taiyuan, she is fond of traveling.

She's lying low in Tianquan now.

Right here in Yao City.

This woman tricked me out of my wealth and love.

She may trick another.

For the sake of all the people, I hope you'll arrest this woman soon.

- Tie Cheng. - Present!

He's obstructing me from my official duties. Drag him out.

- Drag him out? - Exactly.

What's wrong?

This is a special case to be tried another day.

Madam...

Have a sip.

Who exactly is that Mister Yuan?

Why does Madam Fu dislike him so much?

Don't dig into this.

Tell me about it.

Look, that Mister Yuan looks very imposing.

He's also very close to Doctor Zong.

Why... why does Madam Fu dislike him so much then?

Tell me.

How exactly are they related?

- You want to know about it? - I do, I do.

- The two of them-- - We have nothing to do with each other.

Fu Yao.

Madam Fu.

You're not to gossip about it.

I'm not gossiping...

Madam Fu.

What did you call me?

No... I mean Fu Yao.

You don't seem to be in a good mood today.

Why don't I take you somewhere?

Sure, I have nothing to do anyway.

Where are we going?

Look, it's cold and foggy today.

We'll surely be able to see mirages and hear the singing sands.

That's the most amazing winter sight to see in Nanrong.

Why don't I take you there?

Sure, we'll go there.

Yes! Let's go!

Hey!

Aren't you taking me along?

Traitor, you can just stay here.

Let's go.

Fu Yao, listen.

Listen.

The singing sand is really magical.

The sound it makes is lovelier than actual singing.

Aren't we supposed to hear the singing sands and see a mirage?

I can hear the singing sands, but where is the mirage?

The mirage is only seen higher up from the desert.

We'll have to go there.

Over here.

Slow down.

It's Mount Xuanyuan.

Although Nanrong is desolate

the God of Sand endowed us with the wonder of this mirage.

If it's on your mind, you can see the scenery you wish to see.

The desert of Nanrong knows your mind best.

The waterfalls of Taiyuan.

I'm done.

Don't let him follow me, Tie Cheng.

Sure.

Is this even interesting?

Aren't you worried that I'll hurt him?

You don't know who will be the one to get hurt.

Tie Cheng!

You--

Let go of me!

Let go!

You...

Put me down!

Put me down!

What are you doing?

You haven't fully recovered but you're being so willful.

How can I not worry about you?

Let go of me!

Listen to me.

Let go of me!

Listen to me! Hear me out!

I like you, so I chase you. That's my choice.

Just like how you reject and avoid me. That's your call.

If you don't want to see me, you can say it to my face!

Then I, Zhangsun Wu Ji, won't appear in front of you again.

Is that what you want?

If it is, tell me now!

Let go of me!

Let go!

Why have you come to pester me?

Everyone in the world knows that you have someone else in your heart!

Everyone knows... that Crown Prince of Tianquan

is going to marry the princess of Xuanji!

What if...

What if I told you that's no longer the case?

I don't know if I can believe anything you say anymore.

I don't even know...

I don't even know when you're telling the truth.

I don't even know who you are!

Xuanyuan Min, Yuan Zhao Xu, and then Zhangsun Wu Ji...

I don't even know who you really are.

Whatever identity I may have assumed in front of you...

I always showed you the real me.

Or should I say...

Ever since I met you...

I'm no longer the man I once was.

That day...

I already witnessed everything in your father's meditation room.

You and Fo Lian...

You're drawn to each other.

The Leaf of Spiritual Elixir...

I told you, it can reveal the truth...

without any deception.

I just want...

I just want you to look into my heart.

But you said that there's a dear price to pay for drawing out one's memories.

That price...

means nothing... compared to your trust in me.

Mother.

Wu Ji, you've arrived.

Crown Prince Wu Ji.

It's been a long time.

Princess.

I'm Fo Lian of Xuanji Kingdom.

I'm your--

The map of Xuanji plays a crucial role for the five kingdoms.

I thank you on behalf of the Imperial City of Tianquan

for bringing the map of Xuanji here to save the Feather Tree from withering.

I didn't just come here for the five kingdoms' sake.

It's more for the sake of...

Your Highness.

I've waited a long time for you too.

Since all the members of the imperial family are present today

why don't we make an official decree today

to announce the marital bond between Tianquan and Xuanji?

The marital bond?

Why don't I remember anything about that?

We've been betrothed since long ago. Did you forget?

I'll need some time to clarify some facts regarding this matter.

In such critical times...

I specially ask to annul...

the engagement with Crown Prince of Tianquan.

Fo Lian has long known that you and Fu Yao are more than just friends.

She was determined to ruin Fu Yao's reputation.

She plotted all of this

since she first met Fu Yao outside the city.

But I clearly... I clearly saw it in your father's meditation room...

You only saw... what my father wanted you to see.

Was it all fake?

The best skill one can have isn't the skill to kill innumerable enemies.

But the skill to instill doubt.

In my father's quarters...

every little thing there becomes a mystery.

You may see the truth there...

but the truth can also be twisted into an illusion.

I don't dare to believe what I see there.

But I don't dare to not believe it either.

Everyone thinks that the Emperor is deep in meditation

and cares not for mundane affairs.

But it's actually that he has seen too much of the human mind

and refuses to look at the ugliness of human nature right in the eye.

My father is the person I respect the most.

But even as a child, I knew that he wasn't just my father

but the emperor of the five kingdoms.

As the emperor of the five kingdoms...

there are some things that he has no choice but to do.

Everything he does is what he thinks is best for the nation.

Apart from you...

You came out of the blue.

You're the one surprise I'll never give up.

Liar...

You liar...

What are you doing?

Stay still.

Why the fuss?

I like fussing over you.

No one can outdo you in sweet talking.

That might not be true.

That Tie Cheng seems to be quite attentive too.

Are you jealous?

I won't get jealous.

I'm not worried that someone will take you away from me either.

Because I believe that no one will treat you better than I do.

I'm the most trustworthy man you can confide in.

If someone better than me shows up...

I'll work harder... to surpass him.

Someone is approaching from the southwest.

Comrades, you have all worked very hard today.

Every team has done very well.

We'll rest here tonight.

Eat and drink well!

We'll break camp and continue on the journey in the morning!

- All right? - Yes!

- Yes! - Dismissed!

Scarlet Devil?

You recognize him?

He's the leader of the Black Militia.

What is he doing here?

He's secretly colluding with Zhangsun Ping Rong.

It seems there's more to this deployment of soldiers than meets the eye.

I have an idea.

- Why don't we-- - No.

Leave the scouting to me.

Wait here.

So what if you're the Crown Prince of Tianquan?

You--

Even a mighty dragon can't defeat the local snake, get it?

Fine, you won't obey me anyway.

We'll take a look together.

There's someone over there! Quickly!

Ya Lan Zhu?

- Hurry! - Go!

Zhu Zhu!

Fu Yao!

Are you all right?

- I'm fine. - We can't linger. Hurry!

Let's go.

Look at you. I haven't seen you in so long...

and you seem to have gotten a lot skinnier.

If your Fifth Brother were to see you in such a state

he'd be really upset.

You're always teasing me.

Do I look a lot uglier?

Not at all. You're so energetic.

I got like this worrying about him.

Have you been looking for him all this time?

When did you lose track of him?

That day, when he left Taiyuan, I followed him secretly.

I thought that he was heading towards Tiansha

but he went to Geya Desert.

Geya Desert?

That's the most mysterious desert of death in the five kingdoms.

Almost no one returns from there.

It was particularly windy that day.

I sought shelter.

When the wind stopped, I went looking for him again

but there was no trace of him.

Even more strangely, I couldn't find my way out.

I kept going around in circles.

In the end, my water and rations ran out

so I had no choice but to try my luck in Pan City.

Fifth Brother may have gone home already.

But who knew my father would have me captured

and brought back home when I was only halfway there.

He insisted on marrying me off to the son of our tribe's shaman.

I refused, of course!

I threatened to take my own life, so he was frightened.

That's how I managed to escape.

Fu Yao, do you know where my Fifth Brother is?

I've been worried about him too.

Why did those bandits go after you?

Those bandits are so petty!

All I did was steal--

No, all I did was take one of their horses.

But they sent so many people after me.

Young lady, are you from the Qiongye Tribe?

How did you know that?

Did you see clearly?

Was it really the county magistrate of Yao City?

I... I couldn't believe my eyes either.

I even peeked at her several times.

It was her! I can't be wrong, Chief!

I never should have let them go free that day.

A badge can't really prove them to be Prince Yi's subordinates.

And even if they are?

They keep sabotaging my plans.

No one can defend her now.

I'll lead our men to capture her right away.

Forget it. Don't bother.

Where's the fun in a petty fight?

If we want to pick a fight, we'll pick a big one.

It's about time we let her know just how fierce the Black Militia is!

Yes! Yes! Yes!

I was wondering how you were smart enough to know that I'm from Qiongye.

So it was because of this Ocean Bead?

What kind of tribe is Qiongye?

Qiongye is one of the oldest tribes in the five kingdoms.

In the past, right after the Battle of Qiongcang ended

the world was divided into five kingdoms.

Apart from Tianquan, Taiyuan, Tiansha, and Xuanji

Qiongye was once a powerful kingdom.

They also possess the mystical power of facial disguise

so Qiongye nearly replaced the Imperial City.

Then why are there only four major kingdoms now?

The two kings of Qiongye fought each other.

The kingdom was divided.

My people are from the mountains so after the kingdom split up

we hid in the mountains.

We weren't in the mood to care about other affairs.

Qiongye Kingdom is no longer a kingdom.

Young lady, that isn't the Ocean Bead.

It's the inner elixir of sacred beasts from the ancient firmament.

You're not just any Qiongye tribesman.

Why do you know everything?

I'm not talking to you.

What is it?

It's the Love Lock poison.

The Love Lock poison is acting up again.

Sit still.

Fortunately, I'm not your enemy.

Otherwise, you'd kill me with that look.

You can choose to be my kin.

Who wants to be your kin?

I'm as good as 10,000 people.

You're as good as me.

You just used Tianquan's Soul Breather on her, right?

The Soul Breather is a mystical force used only by Tianquan and Qiongcang.

I know that only one person in the five kingdoms can wield it.

You're Crown Prince of Tianquan, Zhangsun Wu Ji.

I am.

Tell me...

Do all those of a different tribe from yours deserve to die?

Do their lives mean nothing to you, so you crushed them?

I don't wish to talk about that now.

The poison in your body is acting up.

I'll take you to Zong Yue.

Come on.

Don't leave yet!

Answer me!

Little Tail... is there some sort of a misunderstanding?

Don't talk too much now.

Let's go.

Lass!

- You-- - Wu Ji, don't!

Fu Yao...

I... I didn't mean to do that.

Fu Yao, you're awake.

Does it still hurt?

I'm all right.

I really didn't mean to do that.

I know.

You should start thinking about how to make it up to me.

I'll make it up to you however you want.

Let me think about it.

It's been a while since I've had--

Zong Yue's medication.

I'm warning you.

You're not to take it upon yourself to defend me.

You even got yourself hurt.

If you do this again, I won't let you off easily.

Or anyone who does this to you.

Here.

I...

Here, carefully.

I'll drink it myself.

I...

I'd like to be alone for a while.

You two can step out.

Get some rest.

I've never seen Little Tail so mad.

Wu Ji, be it a misunderstanding or a grudge

I hope that you two can work it out.

If I remember correctly, your father is Ya Lan Zhi.

Your grandfather is Ya Lan He Zhen.

Your family descended from Yan Lan Yi, Prince of Cold Mountain.

Your generation should be the 45th.

Am I right, Princess Ya Lan?

You wanted to kill me because of what happened then, right?

Back then, who instigated the internal conflict

between northern and southern Qiongye?

Who gave King of South an army to tackle his own brother?

Who sent a spy to the north to steal the military tally

and send the prestigious King of North into exile?

I did.

My father was the most respected hero among my people.

Yet you drove him to the mountains.

Although he's still the King of North

he's no longer the invincible hero he once was to the people of Qiongye!

You did this to him!

I couldn't take your father's feelings into consideration then.

Although I didn't mean for Qiongye to split into the north and the south

what I set out to do then was for the interests of the five kingdoms

not those of Qiongye's.

When you succeed the King of North, you'll understand my efforts.

I don't know about politics and strategies.

All I know is that you're Qiongye Tribe's enemy!

I'll give you a chance then.

You can kill me... and I won't strike back.

I won't kill you...

What's the point of killing you?

Qiongye will still be a fragmented kingdom.

Nothing will change.

If you succeed the King of North

will you try to win the people over and unite Qiongye Kingdom?

I definitely will!

Good.

I, Zhangsun Wu Ji, hereby make an oath

that when you rise to power and reunite the tribes of Qiongye

I'll give you the chance to fight me if you still wish to kill me.

I'll regard you as a true opponent.

Before that day comes, let's set our personal grudges aside.

Alright?

God of Sand!

Please keep us safe!

Festival of the Gods! Welcome the God of Sand!

Why are you scurrying off so anxiously?

Doctor Zong.

Crown Prince Wu Ji sent many gifts to Fu Yao some time ago.

I found this skincare serum from the Royal Mask Store.

I heard that it's really good for women's skin.

Zhu Zhu looks so haggard recently.

This should come in handy.

You're good at offering someone's gifts to another.

It smells good. Have a whiff.

The roses of Geya Desert.

You can even recognize it?

There's also skullcap, licorice, and lilies.

Your nose really is...

You're indeed the Divine Physician.

Stop smelling it.

If you figure out the formula, how will they run their business?

I only know the ingredients.

They must have a unique formula.

Then...

What's the commotion out there?

I don't know.

Oh, I think the people have invited the God of Sand.

Doctor Zong... give it back to me.

Awesome!

Who knew that the Festival of Gods would be so interesting here?

Well done!

The Black Militia broke camp overnight.

Many bandits and refugees in the southwest were recruited by them.

It seems that your older brother is getting impatient.

He's scared that I'll find evidence to prove him guilty

of colluding with bandits in Nanrong so he might as well take the initiative.

Besides, I'm here alone without any troops.

This is a good chance to get rid of me.

What do you plan to do then?

The situation is different now.

Since I left the Imperial City, I'm afraid much has changed.

The officers and officials who defected to him

aren't exactly that short-sighted.

It seems that your brother has really given it his all this time.

But you're here in Nanrong now.

Even if you can devise strategies from here, it might be beyond you.

When do you plan on making a move?

Her condition hasn't been good lately.

She often distances herself from me.

Is there really no cure for her Love Lock poison?

The poisons in her body are quite complicated.

They can only be suppressed by medication now.

That can buy some time.

But once the poisons breaks through

her life will be forfeited, unless we find the antidote.

I won't let that happen.

There's a constant concern on your mind now.

That will become your weakness.

If I care and worry about her, it makes her my weakness.

If I wish to protect her and be with her forever

this weakness will become my armor.

I have to become more powerful.

Because I suddenly have a yearning.

It's even stronger than the yearning to be at the peak of all powers.

Good shot!

What do you mean by this?

Madam Fu has accepted my challenge!

It's my honor!

A challenge?

Fu Yao, he's challenging you to a match.

You want a match? Sure!

I haven't had fun in a while.

Let's have some fun.

Fu Yao, I've never lost a match during the Festival of Gods!

If you can defeat me once today

my life and soul shall belong to you!

That target is too packed. How will you get in?

You really defeated me.

Fu Yao!

I want to marry you!

What?

What?

What did you say?

You agreed that if I lost, my life and soul would belong to you.

You don't have to be so serious.

You can defeat me, that makes me want to marry you even more!

My mother said that a man who can't get what he wants isn't a real man!

Thank your mother for me.

Who are you?

If I defeat you, would I get your life and soul too?

Exactly!

That's what you promised.

How about a match?

A match it is!

Awesome!

- Fantastic! - Well done!

He's remarkable!

It doesn't take pestering to win over a beauty's affection.

Do you understand?

That's the contest for the most beautiful young lady.

Why aren't you taking part in it?

I won't win.

The winner of this year's beauty pageant is...

Hu Sang!

She is quite pretty.

She's quite pretty.

It's the Festival of the Gods.

I heard that whoever receives a handkerchief from a lady

can marry her without any concern.

Where's your handkerchief?

Well...

She's so gorgeous!

I'll accept it for my friend.

What's going on? Why did he leave?

I was wondering where you were hiding.

So you were drinking alone here.

I'll drink with you.

Are you angry?

What are you angry about?

That girl is quite pretty.

Listen carefully.

You can run from me or turn me down.

But you have no right to trample on my dignity!

Nor do you have the right to interfere with my choices!

From Mount Xuanyuan, Taiyuan, Tianquan, and all the way to here!

I've always been chasing you.

Don't you understand how I feel about you?

You're drawn to me too, aren't you?

Why do you have to stab me over and over again

and cut me to pieces?

Is it just because I'm Crown Prince of Tianquan?

So what if you're Crown Prince of Tianquan?

What's so great about the Crown Prince of Tianquan?

Following you here... I don't care who you are.

Then what is this about?

I want a reason!

My wine's gone.

I'll go get some.

Tell me!

What exactly are you scared of?
