The train is so fast!

Mister, why are you here again?

You haven't found the lady?

You've seen me before?

You came to me just now and asked

if I had seen a lady with a hat and a mask.

Was it me?

I told you

she had got off the train at the previous station.

I thought I'd never see you again.

Follow me.

Bai Xiao.

Why did you take me here?

Look over there.

It's 11:55 pm.

In five minutes,

our three-month deal

will be ended.

Yes.

You're afraid I will kill you

and take the spirit bead away.

So you ran away.

But why did you stop running on your way?

Because...

- I... - Kui.

Do you have feelings for me?

Yes.

Kui.

You also love cats, right?

When you pat cats,

they will purr.

Seems they are very happy.

But cats don't communicate

with one another in this way.

It's just a trick they play with humans.

It's all because cats have figured out

when they purr like this,

humans will love them.

In this way,

they can control humans.

Love,

warmth,

and affection,

are just humans' wishful thinking.

So, Kui,

do you really think

I will love you?

No.

I've never expected that.

I just...

... don't want to leave you.

But I want to leave you.

Don't waste your time.

Give me the spirit bead.

OK.

I'll give it to you.

You should give me the earring.

The earring?

Yes.

I gave them to you for a selfish reason.

I wanted you to wear something

that would always remind you of me.

But now

it's unnecessary.

I threw it away.

You did?

- You promised me. - What I promised you

is not important

for me.

Bai Xiao.

Nothing in the three months

matters to you?

Yes.

Nothing

matters at all.

OK.

Time is up.

Give it to me.

= Where are you? =

= Where are you? =

Who are you?

What are you talking about?

You're not Bai Xiao.

Don't stall anymore.

Give me the spirit bead.

It belongs to Bai Xiao.

No one can ever possess it.

You've figured it out.

But it doesn't matter.

Bai Xiao is too far away from here.

He can't save you.

Stop!

Bai...

Kui!

It's been 1,000 years.

But no one has pissed me off like this.

Do you know

what the consequences will be?

Was it Hua Yuan?

Yes.

She escaped.

You've run to such a faraway place.

Why did you come back halfway?

I regretted it.

So I wanted to come back

to find you.

OK.

Let's go.

Where to?

Let's go home.

What are you doing? Let go of me.

I don't want to.

You'll get sick.

I just want to hold your hand.

My gosh.

Your nose is bleeding.

You're out of your mind.

- Don't touch any part of me. - OK.

I won't run away again.

I won't leave you again.

Not for a second.

Absolutely not.

This train

is going so slowly.

When will it arrive in Lv Teng?

I don't know.

No need to rush anyway.

I'm OK

with it.

You demons

can fly to anywhere.

It's pretty awesome.

But

you've lived for so long

and you want to rush everything.

And you don't know

how to kill time.

Don't you feel lonely?

You humans

only have a short lifespan.

Don't you

feel bored when living?

Because

we are so insignificant in the river of time,

we will hold in awe and veneration.

And because

we don't have much

in the whole life,

we will

appreciate what we have.

In fact,

we humans have many special days,

like...

... festivals,

anniversaries, and birthdays.

All these

are for remembering and appreciating.

After all,

living in the world

is the most memorable thing.

But sadly,

you demons don't have birthdays.

How about

we make today your birthday?

- My birthday? - Mm-hmm.

Yes.

We should invite Nanjiao,

Si Chen and Ping An over when we get home.

We'll celebrate your birthday

and have a party together.

Wait a moment.

I need to order a birthday cake

and buy some candles for you.

How old are you?

I am...

... just over 1,300 years old.

Well...

Forget the candles.

I'll just

think about what else I can buy for you.

Beverages.

Snacks.

A cake.

Birthday hats.

And...

What's up?

Your black diamond is missing.

As Expected.

He bought his wife a fake as the present.

How do you know

my dad gave it to my mom?

He came back today.

- Great! He finally came back. - But he left again.

Your dad is kinda different

from what I thought.

He's very philosophical

when speaking.

He told you

he taught in a college, right?

Isn't it true?

He only got admitted by a college the third time.

How could he be a teacher?

He resells antiques to make a living.

But he speaks

very good English.

"The moment seizes us."

and "Time waits for no one."

How do you know it?

Those are the only English sayings he knows.

Whenever he asks others to buy antiques,

he will use those sayings.

It's just his way

to persuade others to buy from him.

Did he come back to steal the antiques?

It reminds me.

He had a larger luggage bag

when he left.

Xia Zhenlong!

Humans are born to die.

So time is very crucial to them.

But when someone looks back,

they'll find time isn't linear.

It's made up of individual moments.

These moments

compose the time coordinate

and become the footprints of humans.

For demons,

time is a concept that equals to nothingness.

But from now on,

because of the girl around me,

time becomes meaningful

for me.

At this moment,

on the train going north,

feeling Kui's warm breath,

looking up at the moon and the stars,

the moment

has become the first coordinate

of my life in 1,000 years.

Hello!

Where are you?

The train arrived at eight, right?

You came to pick me up?

Yes.

I wanted to surprise you.

Where did you go?

I've waited for an hour.

I...

I took a freight train.

So it stopped

in the suburb.

Bai Xiao saved you from a cat demon.

He really didn't say anything about the spirit bead?

Nope.

He didn't talk about the future, either?

You two just came back like this?

Yes.

It...

It doesn't feel right.

Could it be said that

not only you, a human, fall in love,

but also he, a demon,

feels the same way

and falls in love with you?

Cut it out.

I...

I'll talk to you when I get home.

OK.

Bye.

Why did Hua Yuan

try everything she could to take the spirit bead?

When Que Sheng comes here,

will she take the spirit bead away?

If so, what should Kui do?

You've fought against Bai Feng for 100 years

but neither of you can win.

It has stirred confusions in the Paradise.

So I am sent here to ask you

why you want to be the Demon King.

Because it's the only way

in which I can become an immortal.

Becoming an immortal

is the only way for me to be around you.

Jing Yuan spirit bead.

Cultivate with it for 1,000 years.

You can be an immortal in this way

without fighting to be the Demon King.

From now on,

the world will only know

Bai Feng won the Demon Moon Assembly fight.

And during 1,000 years,

you shouldn't long for anything

or have any feelings.

Can you bear

the loneliness?

I can.

Que Sheng.

When will we

see each other again?

In Jing Yuan's number of days,

counting 1,000 years.

when the spirit bead shows up again,

we will meet.

What is Bai Xiao thinking about?

Que Sheng has shown up.

Will he go to see her?

Will he leave me?

Senior?

Are you

- my master? - Yes.

Jinhua Summit, Danyuan Mountain.

I'll name you Hua Yuan.

Thank you for helping me become a demon.

Guard my blood.

It will always save your life.

These are your possession talisman,

body-control spell, and gemini talisman.

When I'm away from you,

these will prop you up for 500 years.

Master, where are you going?

My calamity is coming today.

All immortals will incapacitate me.

I'll have to keep my primordial spirit.

I've heard Jing Yuan spirit bead

will show up in 500 years.

You need to find it

and convene all demons' spirit in it.

Master, you've given me anima and demon power.

I swear to protect you.

I won't let you down.

I'll only see you again when it's time.

Hua Yuan! Hua Yuan!

Why did you come back by train?

You're seriously injured.

Did Bai Xiao do it?

He figured out who you are?

Senior.

You are here to pick up Kui, right?

She took a freight train.

It stopped in suburb.

Let's go meet her at her house.

Senior, who is she?

She's...

She...

Senior.

Why?

Untie me!

Aren't you able to heal yourself?

Why are you like this?

Injuries done by Bai Xiao's demon power

are not the same with the ones done by your stabbings.

I'm lucky enough to survive.

Bai Xiao saw you

and defeat you?

He must have figured out I put the talisman on him.

Now they are back.

Bai Xiao may be on his way to look for me.

What should we do?

Say something!

I've done everything I could.

You promised me nothing would go wrong.

But now we are in a dangerous situation.

Kui.

Bai Xiao.

Now Ping An.

More and more people know about it.

You are on your own.

If you speak another word,

I'll kill you.

It's true I am injured,

but I can still kill someone.

= Call from Kui =

Why doesn't she answer?

= Call from Kui =

Hello.

Ping An.

We've arrived home.

Are you here?

Are you with Bai Xiao?

Yes.

Then I won't join you.

When you're free,

come visit me alone.

I want to talk with you privately.

OK. All right.

I'll call you later.

Bye.

Bye.

Where is Ping An?

The possession talisman.

I've sealed her in my body.

I was going to

use it on you.

Don't worry.

You're so tame.

I won't use it on you.

Moreover,

after being possessed,

it'll leave a mark on your neck.

Since Bai Xiao is so smart,

he'll figure it out.

Why have you

possessed Ping An?

To better cooperate with you.

What...

What else can I do?

They must have figured out I'm on your side.

That's right.

So,

I need to

to tell them

why.

We are home.

Your dad took many things away.

He didn't take everything.

Thank goodness.

But among all he took,

is there anything valuable?

Nope.

The most valuable thing...

Oh bummer!

Bummer!

The property ownership certificate is gone.

My dad must have collateralized the house.

Kui.

Where is your laptop?

Xia Zhenlong.

- You... - Kui.

Sorry.

Let me explain.

The creditor is ruthless.

He told me

if I didn't pay him back,

he'd throw me into the river to feed fishes with my flesh.

No joking.

I've got no options

but to collateralize the house.

The will probably move in three days from now.

Before that, you have to...

Where is my laptop?

I sold it.

I don't have any money to buy food.

How could you do this to me?

I put my graduation thesis,

all data

and materials in my laptop.

I don't have any backups.

How am I going to graduate?

Sorry.

I didn't know.

Where did you sell it?

I sold it

to the electronics shop at the corner.

You're out of your mind!

How could you...

I haven't even scolded you.

How can you live with a guy?

You didn't tell me you had a boyfriend.

- He's not my boyfriend. - He's not?

Why is he living with you?

Who is he?

He's...

A creditor.

Which creditor?

Stop asking questions.

I'm hanging up.

Gotta go to buy my laptop back.

You...

Figure out a way to keep the house for me!

Otherwise,

I'll jump into the river to feed fishes with my flesh!

Eat some. Don't be mad.

Boss.

I'm here to get my laptop back.

You should pay thirty more yuan.

It's all I have.

OK.

You can have it.

Thank you, thank you.

If you had arrived one minute late,

I'd have formatted the system.

= Study Materials =

= Cherished Pictures =

Xia Kui.

It's weird.

So weird.

What's really weird is these candid camera pics.

I'm talking about the laptop.

Why?

Don't blackmail me.

I didn't touch it at all.

All my documents are still in it.

But pictures in one folder are gone.

What pictures?

Pictures I took

for the housing project.

The one of Huai An Community.

Seems the computer's battery died.

It alerted just now.

Forget it.

I don't need the pictures anymore.

It's fine.

Wait.

Can you recover deleted pictures?

I can take a shot.

But I can't promise you anything.

And...

What? You want more money?

I don't need you to recover the pictures.

May I pay with my bank card?

Yes, sure.

Your boyfriend is really generous.

When can you have it done?

Within two days.

Tell me your phone number.

Why did you want to recover the pictures?

Because it might be Zhou Jing who deleted them.

Senior?

When he had dinner with us last time,

I saw him touching your laptop.

But why did he delete pictures of the project?

Don't you know?

Your ex-boyfriend

has an agenda.

Who is my ex?

I turned him down.

You did that two days later.

You damned fox demon.

How petty!

Hua Yuan could turned into me

because her gemini talisman was put on me.

And on that day,

only Zhou Jing touched me.

Don't touch me!

He is a human.

Why was he instigated by Hua Yuan?

Could it be

he was possessed?

No way.

I checked him out.

If he was possessed,

there would be

a human-like talisman on the back of his neck.

You were suspicious of him before?

Yes.

Every time you are in danger,

he will be there.

So,

he's highly suspicious.

But why did he do it?

Hua Yuan

might threaten him with something.

Or...

He has got dirty laundry.

So,

I'll go check

what he deleted.

I always feel there's something

I can't remember.

So annoying.

= Starring: Wei Ye =

= Starring: Wei Ye =

Come on. Move faster.

Can you two do it?

Move faster.

Video grapher, it's OK now.

Director, all set.

Where is the actor?

- He hasn't arrived. - Seriously?

I can't shoot the advertisement.

Hello, Mr. Wei.

Where are you now?

I'm on my way.

The director lost his temper.

Please come sooner.

My top speed?

Can you handle it?

What are you doing?

Who the hell are you?

Come with us.

Where to?

Don't ask.

Or I will suck all your anima.

Follow the car over there.

Do we have a future together?

Will Que Sheng come to meet him?

I can't

ask any of these questions.

I'm afraid he'll leave at any moment.

What brings you here?

Ping An told me you were back.

So I left the hospital.

You...

... have your plaster removed?

Nanjiao set my broken bone.

Am I the best demon catcher?

Even my bones are specially talented.

Where is Ping An?

She said

she'd visit me alone.

How strange!

Didn't she say she'd come with me?

Hey, buddy!

What did I say?

The spirit bead didn't matter.

You two should just make up.

You didn't need to leave each other.

It was silly.

Stay with us so that we can still hang out together.

Am I right?

Bai Xiao.

How is your friend?

Friend?

What friend?

He...

He's nobody.

He's really nobody.

How odd!

Kui.

I'm hungry.

Could you please cook for me?

Why are you here?

Are you here visiting us

or sponging us?

Both.

But

from tomorrow,

I can't either visit you

or sponge you.

Why?

Because my master will come tomorrow.

I can't come to visit you often.

That makes your master

a demon catcher who really benefits others.

By the way, Bai Xiao,

don't go out often.

You'd be in trouble if my master saw you.

Your family is an old family known for demon catching.

However,

from what I've seen,

the reputation is waning rapidly.

My master is much better than I am.

Seriously. Go check his demon container.

There's a huge sliver demon lock.

Be careful.

Why is your master coming here?

Is he going to take you

to be back to cultivation in the mountain?

No.

My master says

there are lots of demons and weird things.

Many demons

have disappeared gradually.

But

we demon catchers didn't do it.

So my master will come here to investigate.

I'm looking into it, too.

Have you got any clues?

It might be related to one demon.

Who is it?

My elder twin brother,

Bai Feng.

What?

Didn't he die?

My master told me

the Demon King, Bai Feng, breached the law in the paradise.

So immortals broke his original shape apart.

Besides,

it's not time for the next Demon Moon Assembly.

There are so many demons out there

only because they have no leader in the demon world.

Maybe

he didn't die.

How do you know it?

Many demons

have disappeared recently.

Moreover,

it's said they are sucked out of their anima

after being caught.

Tu Shan.

It was how Tu Shan died.

Yes.

When Tu Shan died,

I thought it was just an accident.

The spirit bead showed up at that time

and she touched it.

But later I had a second thought.

Many demons disappeared.

And,

did Hua Yuan do all this?

So I smelt a rat

out of the whole situation.

As you've known,

Hua Yuan didn't cultivate for long.

Why did she need all the anima?

One more thing:

Bai Feng's talisman was involved, too.

So,

there is only one reason.

Bai Feng didn't die.

His primordial spirit has been hiding in a covert place.

But his flesh

may have been long gone.

Bai Feng may be using

the anima he sucked

from the demons

he has caught

to extend his life.

So...

Will he revive?

No.

Unless...

Unless what?

Unless he has the spirit bead.

The spirit bead?

Why?

Anima can only support the primordial spirit.

If...

If he has the spirit bead

and enough anima,

he will revive.

So now Kui is in danger.

Yes.

That's why Hua Yuan tried everything

to kill Kui

to get the spirit bead.

Even my senior

became her accomplice.

Your senior?

Zhou Jing?

It's a lot for me to process.

I'm so bewildered.

The most popular star Wei Ye is missing.

Today, his agent called the police and said...

It's the dream eater.

Even he got caught, too.

... Wei Ye's car was found in the suburb.

No struggling signs were on the scene.

Hello, this is Xia Kui.

OK.

I got it.

Please keep me updated

when you have more information.

It was the museum.

They said

the painting of Rong Yue

has been stolen.

It reminds me of something.

On my way to your house,

I passed by Mr. Yi Muwu's massage shop.

It was all dark inside.

I was wondering

why they had closed so early.

So many demons have disappeared again.

I guess

Hua Yuan gets impatient.

Nanjiao.

Don't call me again.

I've told you I decide to retired from showbiz.

My superstar.

Think about your fans.

Think about Glue.

Please don't be so capricious.

My fans?

It's love in vain.

100 years later,

you're gone

but I'll still be here.

So what's the point?

Oh my gosh.

You've started talking nonsense.

Are you depressed?

I've decide to leave.

That's it.

Why are you here?
