[Penglai Hall]

What are you guys looking at me for?

Thunder Deity,

why are you so worked up?

I'm not.

I control thunder and lightning,

but I didn't do that.

You... This isn't my smell either.

Then...

Who?

Who is it?

Who's doing this?

Who's doing my job?

Xuanshang is the spirit of the stars.

When he's having a mood swing,

the stars will be affected.

In extreme cases,

that affects the astronomical phenomenon in the Heavenly Realm.

Did Xuanshang have

an extreme encounter?

The smell is so strong.

How many did you take?

Just one?

(Just one is enough)

(to make me lose control?)

(Shaodian Youqin,)

(how can you be so weak-minded?)

A bunch.

Liguang Qingkui, you. ..

Empyrean Xuanshang, I can't wait any longer.

I want the token now.

Stop!

You won't give it to me?

Well, I won't give up.

Heartless Shaodian!

What did you do to me,

Heartless Shaodian?

You turned me into a walnut!

Get back here!

Heartless Shaodian!

Heartless Shaodian!

Wake up!

Wake up!

Wake up!

Get up! Get up! Get up!

Get

up!

Get up! Get up!

Xuanshang

to let you leave the Heavenly Realm.

But w as it necessary

to go this far?

You didn't come back,

so I waited all night for you outside.

When I saw Empyrean Xuanshang

leaving the hall,

I knew

something bad had happened.

My master's love

has been for saken...

Hold on. Wait.

You mean

last night...

Heartless Shaodian and I...

You forgot?

You don't remember anything?

My master

is so young.

Yet

he was betrayed by you...

Well, it's all your fault.

Do you know what that fruit you brought was?

[Penglai Hall] What about leaving the realm?

Why don't you use what happened last night

to blackmail him?

After all, he won't be able to defend himself.

He'll hand over the token.

He might...

We'll leave this matter

at that.

Just like that?

I won't bawl my eyes out

like other girls,

trying to make someone

take responsibility.

Besides,

he can't be the only one in the Heavenly Realm

to have a token.

Who would be so dumb to give you their token, then?

Here he comes.

Sister-in-law?

Qingheng.

Come here.

I...

Why are you here,

Qingheng?

I came to submit my homework

to my brother.

Are you here to see him as well?

I woke up hungry,

so I came to ask him

for some food.

But your brother

is n't here.

He isn't?

Then... Please wait for a bit.

I'll have the immortal attendants

bring over some pastries

.

the pastries.

I just need you

to get me some liquor.

Of course.

Not the pure air liquor, though.

Qingkui,

do you mean the liquor brewed by Liquor Deity Shaokang?

The kind that can make one dizzy

and put one to sleep?

Yes, that's the one.

You get the liquor, and I'll prepare the food.

Let's meet at Tianpa Hall.

All right.

What are you up to now?

Why so anxious?

You go and prepare some food

. this silly boy

drunk.

Within two hours,

his token

will be ours.

All they eat here is pure air.

Where am I supposed to find you food?

Qingkui?

Qingheng,

you're here.

What

is this?

.

Let's enjoy a meal

while we drink and chat.

How did you prepare

this entire spread of food

in such a short time?

You want to know?

Come here.

I'll show you

something.

I...

I...

Oh , don't hold back.

I've got plenty o f tea eggs.

They're delicious.

Here.

Tea eggs?

Those who practice immortal cultivation

shall no longer consume the food of the mortal.

I

dare not disobey the Heavenly Rules

. your brother.

But it turns out you two are the same.

How boring.

That's not it.

You don't know.

My brother isn't restraining himself

and following the Heavenly Rules

for his own sake.

.

Got it.

That stoic guy

is like a god

to you.

But even I

don't usually get to savor

this kind of food.

Are you sure you don't want to try some?

If both of us don't say anything ,

no one will know that you broke the rules.

Come on.

Hurry.

Sit.

Try some.

It smells divine.

Here.

Smell it.

Doesn't it smell wonderful?

Qingkui...

Is it good

? always like this.

He used to be kind.

He knew I was playful

and often took me out to have fun.

He sure treats you very well.

Here. A toast to him.

But when did he give up

his humanity

and become

such an unlikable man?

Ever since he was ordered

to repair the Guixu,

he went into seclusion,

separated himself from his heart and desires,

and cultivated for a thousand years.

And that's how he became

so cold and aloof?

(So this is Heartless Shaodian's)

(weakness.)

(He must've had it tough last night.)

It has not been easy for my brother.

Please don't say things like that anymore,

Sister-in-law.

Fine, I promise.

[Qingheng ]

If the guard finds out

that the token

belongs to Qingheng,

he'll definitely stop us.

You stall him,

and I'll open the gate.

Got it.

Guess who I am.

What are you doing, Princess Qingkui?

you're wrong. Guess again.

But I can see you.

Erlang Deity?

Man!

The Heavenly Realm

that's said to be heavily guarded

isn't that hard to deal with.

Have you forgotten that we're in heaven?

a scare. Perfect timing.

I'll take you down.

Let's go.

Sir,

a message from Sushui.

Princess Qingkui

has left the city on the pretext

of purchasing medicine.

Where is she headed?

Wangliang City.

Tell Sushui

to keep a close eye on her.

Once she enters the city,

she must not be allowed to leave.

Yes.

(It was not your fault for mistakenly consuming)

(the Jianmu Fruit and falling under its influence.)

(Never have I felt so tired)

(in my thousands of years of cultivation.)

(Princess Qingkui...)

(I'll see to it)

(that you receive even more severe discipline from now on.)

Your Highness!

Haven't I told you?

Do not disturb me

when I am purging my mind.

Yes, I apologize.

But.. .

But Crane-Riding Deity asks...

asks that you proceed

to Penglai Hall to discuss matters.

What matters?

I think you had better see it for yourself.

Where is His Highness?

Where is His Highness?

Where is His Highness?

We want to see His Highness!

We demand to see His Highness!

You can't.

Why can't we?

His Highness is cultivating.

He won't accept any visitors.

My cranes only lay eggs

once in a thousand years!

I recently collected a few eggs

that I was going to hatch and present

to the Heavenly Emperor.

But Princess Qingkui took them!

Do you know what she did to them?

She turned them...

She turned them into tea eggs!

Listen to me!

I will report this to him!

My new tea from Yunnan was stolen!

My ten-thousand-year-old tea tree

was chopped down for firewood!

Where is His Highness

? Highness!

-Your Highness! -Your Highness!

-Your Highness! -Your Highness!

Where is His Highness? Let us see His Highness!

Your

Highness !

His Highness is cultivating

in seclusion

. Hall] We demand to see His Highness!

Why won't he see us?

Let us see His Highness!

Qingkui.

It 's her again.

In less than half a day,

she has caused so much trouble.

Half a day?

do

last night?

Let us see His Highness!

Take the two of them to the Heavenly Ministry of Justice.

Have Thunder Deity deal with this according to the H eavenly Rules.

Yes...

But...

They aren't the only victims.

You were affected too.

Your divine bull

was eaten

by Princess Qingkui.

What did you say?

Your Highness!

Your Highness!

Your Highness!

Your Highness!

Your Highness! You've finally returned!

Your Highness! Your Highness!

Please calm down.

Please be civil.

I...

Out of our way!

Your Highness!

You must seek justice

for us!

Because of Princess Qingkui's status

as Empyrean Consort ...

That's right.

The Heavenly Ministry of Justice couldn't deal with her

and sent us

to Penglai Hall.

You must seek justice

for us!

Your Highness!

You must seek justice for us, Your Highness!

Princess Qingkui

used someone's token

and left the realm!

She had a strange bird with her

that wounded my eye too!

She left the realm?

She left this

for you.

(I know)

(last night was a mistake.)

(For a pedantic deity like yourself)

(to lose your purity,)

(you must be suffering now.)

(But)

(considering that you're an adult,)

(I'm sure you'll be able to let it go maturely as I did.)

(Fret not, Heartless Shaodian.)

(I will not tell another soul about what happened.)

(If you still can't)

(let this go...)

(This Heavenly Glazed Lamp...)

(Too valuable.)

(The intricate light shadow fan...)

(No, too good for him.)

( I've left you a silver moon cypress branch)

(to make up for the inconvenience I caused.)

(Consider this)

(compensation.)

Was His Highness so infected?

Immortals.

Erlang Deity.

Please calm down.

His Highness will give all of you

an explanation.

He...

He already flew off.

What explanation can we expect?

Right.

That's right.

(Princess Qingkui,)

(you'll have to suffer now.)

[Wangliang City]

Make way!

(I wonder if Tan)

(made it to Wangliang City.)

Your

Highness.

We've arrived at the pharmacy.

The voidwalkers have always been avoiding seeking medical care.

It is an honor to have the Void Crown Princess

grace my shop

. .

Indeed.

Please.

Please.

Please feel free to browse.

Take a look around.

If none of these interests Your Highness,

I have a private collection of rare treasures.

Would Your Highness be interested

in taking a look?

( I'll wait for you at the back door.)

Please show me the way.

This way, please.

Qingkui!

Come here!

We can't stay here.

Let's leave now.

Tan,

did you have a hard time in the Heavenly Realm?

Did anyone hurt you?

The laws of the Heavenly Realm are strict.

You hate being restrained.

It must've been difficult for you.

Qingkui,

I'm fine.

But you...

You look dreadful.

had a hard time.

Don't say that.

You just got caught up

in the Void's succession war.

It's Dingyun's fault.

He shouldn't have tried to assassinate the First Prince.

Don't worry, Tan.

[Father] I' ve written a letter to Father

explaining the mistake in the marriage

and asked him to save us.

The Void's succession war?

Didn't we end up marrying the wrong men

because of Di Lanjue?

Di Lanjue?

The Prince of the Beast Realm

that you 're close to?

Yes.

I was worried you would lose your freedom

after marrying an immortal.

(So I had him)

(snatch you away on the day of your wedding.)

(But that guy)

(was unreliable.)

(He wasn't goo d at spells.)

He mixed up the sedans.

If it was indeed the fault of Di Lanjue,

why did the Third Prince

lie to me?

Tan,

think about it again.

Did you get involved in the feud of the voidwalkers

before you were wedded?

The feud of the voidwalkers...

The assassination of Wudai!

I remember now! I did come across that.

But

how did you know that, Qingkui?

Sir,

Her Highness and Yetan

made an arrangement to convene in Wangliang City

and send a letter to the human emperor.

They are meeting there right now.

Why do you laugh, sir?

I told you Princess Qingkui

is

n't that easy to fool.

Now that the two of them have reunited,

your plans

have failed.

that human princess.

I was going to spare her life

to have her assist me in seizing the throne.

But she's an unsettled one.

Yetan and Qingkui.

Leave neither of them alive.

So,

Chaofeng, the least favored Third Prince,

was the one who saved you

and told you all about

Dingyun's assassination?

Yes.

The Third Prince has never met us before.

Yet he was willing to help us.

That's very kind of him.

Don't be so gullible!

There is no one in the Void

that is kind!

That's right.

But he did protect me.

The situation in the Void is complex.

Perhaps he didn't want to see

two innocent girls get caught up in the chaos.

I don't know what Chaofeng

is up to.

But he definitely

has hidden agendas.

What we should do now

is return to the palace at once.

Let's go.

Did you

have a death wish? to get hurt!

You...

You're Dingyun?

Doesn't matter who he is.

Let's get out of here first.

Run!

Let's go!

Tan! Tan...

This isn't going to work

. both of us,

he'll kill us both.

Let's split up.

He won't be able to catch up to both of us.

One of us

will make it out somehow

and deliver the letter to Father.

Qingkui,

you have no cultivation . You won't be able to protect yourself.

You deliver the letter. I'll handle him.

No!

What about you?

As long as one of us gets away,

he'll have reservations,

and he won't kill the other recklessly.

Take this and go.

Keep yourself safe.

Go!

Be care ful.

I'll be fine.

Trust me.

Go now!

Hurry!

Divine Fire Shield!

Binding Silk!

I just got this.

I can't believe I have to use it

on scum like you!

Demon-Vanquishing Vajra!

Jade Ruyi !

Linglong Pagoda!

Demon-Vanquishing Umbrella!

Five Thunder Beads!

If you kill me here,

my sister will expose

the false marriage no matter what!

Your plan will be exposed when that happens,

and your life will be at risk too!

Do you think I would spare your sister

after I kill you?

I've sealed the entire Wangliang City.

Qingkui is trapped.

Once I kill you,

your sister will join you.

♪See the stars fall♪

♪The silhouette of the embrace♪

♪The stars in the eyes of my beloved one gleamed with sweetness♪

(Shaodian Youqin!)

(It's him again!)

(It looks like I won't be able)

(to kill this girl.)

(But seeing him)

(protecting her tells me)

(that he doesn't know about the mix-up yet.)

(It's better to make the best of this mistake)

(than fight him forcibly.)

Why are you glaring at me?

Kill him!

Don't you know that he...

He was the one who tried to kill Wudai

in Wangliang City.

How did you know?

It's easy to tell from his moves.

Why aren't you going after him, then?

What does the feud of the princes of the Void

have to do with me?

You, on the other hand,

if you hadn't escaped to the Mortal Realm,

you wouldn't have given them a chance

to come after you.

(Oh, Your Highness,)

(where in the world are you?)

(Don't worry, Tan.)

(I'll save you!)

Your Highness!

Man!

You're the Empyrean Consort.

But you came to the Mortal Realm without permission,

and you're entangled in the matters

of both the Beast Realm and the Void.

How troublesome.

Man and I have been through thick and thin!

How dare you capture her!

I 'll fight you!

Impudent!

Leave.

Third Prince...

Come on.

hero,

you didn't have to go that far!

Over there.

Yes.

Let's go!

They

were Dingyun's men as expected.

Are you all right?

You were right.

Dingyun does intend to kill my sister .

need to do this, you r Highness.

Empyrean Xuanshang

has rescued Princess Yetan.

As long as she stays in the Heavenly Realm,

she'll be safe.

Rest assured, Your Highness.

It's all my fault.

I almost got her killed.

But Dingyun

intends to kill me now.

I' m afraid...

What matters is that you're safe, Princess Yetan.

Dingyun failed this time.

He won't dare to try to do anything to you again.

Besides, it is in his favor

to continue this mistake.

As long as

you stay in the Void from now on,

I'll do everything I can to protect you.

(Since it has come to this,)

(I'll have to make the most out of things.)

Your Highness.

Your Highness.

We're a family

now,

so don't make things difficult for Man.

If you continue to behave recklessly,

I'll make you regret it.

It's because you're always

so rude.

Silence!

You...

I don' t want to see you.

Feichi,

take her to face her punishment

at the Heavenly Ministry of Justice.

I 'm not going anywhere. I didn't do anything wrong.

You

still refuse to admit your mistakes

?

the s he committed.

Killing sacred animals,

destroying the immortal realm,

escaping to the Mortal Realm,

and being acquainted with the Beast Realm.

Given all the above offenses,

you are punishable by five strikes of the divine thunder.

All I did was satisfy my hunger

and visit relatives.

Is this necessary?

Do you take an Empyrean Consort

just to make her a prisoner?

You...

What?

What do you want?

Wait right here.

Give us justice, Your Highness!

-Your Highness! -Your Highness !

Your Highness has been in a clear state of mind

for over a thousand years.

Now, because of Princess Qingkui,

you have to purge your mind

twice a day.

One must reflect upon oneself if one fails to behave properly.

for acting rashly.

To be able to sway your heart and mind

that are as firm and solid as a rock

to this extent,

Princess Qingkui is Your Highness' fated one

indeed.

Are you mocking me?

It seems Your Highness is no longer upset now .

What do you plan to do next?

You can't actually send her

to the He avenly Ministry of Justice.

(That Heartless Shaodian is strict and dogmatic.)

(Who knows how he is going to deal with me?)

(I can't just sit around and do nothing.)

(Thankfully, Di Lanjue taught me)

( some basic spells.)

Your Highness!

Princess Qingkui.

Your movements have been sealed.

Listen here.

I'm going to escape

right under your nose.

No...

I... How

can you still move?

years of cultivation.

How could I be stopped

by such a petty spell?

No

... What's this?

Iridescent Eyes.

If you behave yourself,

they will not hinder you.

If not...

If not, what

? m sure you've felt it.

Heartless Shaodian!

You darned...

Now that you know

what they're capable of,

you should mind your behavior from now on.

Mo.

Take Princess Qingkui

back to Tianpa Hall

.

You

! You darned...

You darned...

Please.

Your Highness,

the beast is awake.

What should we do with her?

Where am I?

Where's my mistress?

Is she being punished?

Your Highness!

Your Highness,

please do n't be hard on Princess Qingkui.

She left for the realm because her older sister...

Because... Because an older sister

wanted to see her little sister.

Her wedding day was chaotic.

Since coming to the Heavenly Realm,

Her Highness has been worried about her little sister.

She loves and cares too much

about her.

Why else would she risk her life

and escape to the Mortal Realm?

Your Highness, please don't...

Please don't blame Princess Qingkui.

I'm begging you.

Please...

Love and desire are burdens on the path of cultivation.

She has joined the immortals,

so she should obey our rules.

Your... Your Highness is right.

She hasn't been here for long.

She 's

still young.

I... I'll teach her

. .

She acted out because of love.

That is understandable.

I'll let you stay by her side.

You're dismissed.

Your mistress is fine.

Thank you, Your Highness.

Thank you, sir.

(She went to the Mortal Realm )

(because she was worried about her sister.)

(Was the punishment earlier)

(too harsh?)

(Never mind.)

(I really don't want to be near her.)

(I'll let the Iridescent Eyes)

(keep her in check.)

The Void Empress

sent you, Mr. Zhulong,

to the borders to assist the Second Prince

and even had us see you off.

This shows that the Void Empress

holds you

in high regard.

Is that so

? .

Go back and get a drink.

Thank you, sir.

Chaofeng?

(Why is he in Zhuoxin Hall)

(with Princess Yetan?)

You were willing to return

to the Void for your little sister's sake.

Your love for her is precious.

The mix-up in the marriage

concerns the succession war in the Void.

It is perilous.

But I promise you, Your Highness,

so long as you remain

in the Void,

I'll do everything to protect you.

Thank you, Third Prince .

It's your first time in the Void.

It is natural for you to be reserved.

You've saved me several times.

I am grateful,

but I was reckless in going

to Wangliang City.

I've alerted the Second Prince.

I' m sure I've invoked his wrath.

I do not wish

to burden you any further.

Not at all, Your Highness.

Rest assured.

I won't let Dingyun make things difficult

for you.

That's bold of you to say,

Mr. Void Patrol.

He works for Dingyun.

To think all of the Void

were deceived by you,

Princess Qingkui.

Don't worry.

Zhu Jiuyin.

It looks like

I can't let you leave

Zhuoxin Hall.

You think you can protect her?

You're just a Void Patrol.

Come with me to see the Second Prince.

Third

Prince!

Your Highness, be careful!

I killed someone...

You did it to defend yourself

. Your Highness.

Please look at this.

He is the one who tried to kill Princess Yetan

in Wangliang City.

I'm sure he hasn't informed the Second Prince.

We just need to get rid of his body,

and the Second Prince will never know.

Yes.

This man is ruthless,

but he is extremely loyal.

If the Second Prince knows

that he is dead,

he will pursue this matter.

Rather than let that happen,

it's better that I take responsibility for my own actions

so as not to implicate Your Highness and Tan.

Your Highness...

Are you saying you want to turn yourself in?

You're just a weak woman.

No one in the Void would believe

that you killed him.

The weapon is right here.

They'll have to believe it.

It happened all too suddenly.

I must take sole responsibility for this.

This princess

is in an adverse situation herself,

yet she still wants to protect others.

She is the complete opposite

of my master.

But you can't possibly

own up to your every mistake,

Princess Qingkui.

You're good at scheming and making decisions.

You came up with this scheme

to drag her down.

You've certainly had it all planned.

What do you know?

If I didn't let her experience it herself,

she would never believe me.

And she would never stay

and be a crown princess.

Go away.

Even so,

you didn't have to kill Zhu Jiuyin.

Second Prince lost a trusted subordinate.

He won't let this matter go.

Sir,

you're inviting trouble.

I have my plans.

Your Highness.

Your Highness.

Your Highness must've had a nightmare.

Please have some tea to calm your nerves.

Where is the Third Prince?

Well,

His Highness

has gone to the Cave of Haunted Souls

to receive his punishment.

He said he killed the Second Prince's subordinate,

Zhu Jiuyin.

He asked for a punishment?

rmally, it isn't a big deal

for a prince to kill.

But His Highness was born of a lower status.

He isn't favored either.

And the guy that died was one of the Second Prince's men.

I heard the enforcers in the Cave of Haunted Souls

are ruthless and vicious.

They take pleasure in torture.

Those who enter the cave

go through great pain and suffering.

His Highness is in for a rough time.

Who allowed you to gossip?

Get out of here!

-Yes . -Yes.

Let's go.

Don't worry, Your Highness.

His Highness has asked someone

to tell...

I killed Zhu Jiuyin!

How could His Highness

suffer in my stead?

I must tell them the truth.

Your Highness

. Highness must've thought of everything

before he entered

the cave. If you

bring this matter up now,

it'll only mean the suffering of another.

It won't do any good.

His Highness cautioned me

countless times.

intentions.

Now, he is being punished because of me,

and I can't do anything.

Sushui,

can you take me

to him?

The Cave of Haunted Souls is surr ounded by vicious beasts.

It is a dangerous place.

You cannot risk putting yourself in danger.

Please wait here

for his return.

Princess Qingkui.
