[The Starry Love] [Adapted from "The Starry Love" by Yi Du Jun Hua]

[Episode 39]

Today is the sixth day of the tenth month.

I've returned

to face the world again.

My reputation

and luck are worse than before.

But it doesn't matter how this life will turn out.

I'll make it a brilliant one.

Why are you staring at me like that?

I was thinking,

besides the Rooftop Swallow Mansion,

you resemble something else too.

What is it?

The Herb of Nine Lives.

What...

What is this thing?

The name sounds terrible.

It's a type of plant.

It has an incredibly tenacious life force.

Even if you don't water it for half a year,

it won't die.

Even if it withers,

it'll revive

after it encounters a rain shower.

You're just the same.

After experiencing so much,

you were able to move on so quickly.

Then I'm the Herb of Nine Lives.

I've also endured so much suffering

but still have people who love me.

All of you are my rain shower.

With all of you by my side,

I won't be afraid

even if there are countless adversities.

I'll do everything I can

to keep you safe.

What do you mean by keeping me safe?

Are you looking down on me?

With my current power,

me protecting you is more like it.

All right, everything you say.

Why? Don't you believe me?

Why don't we give it a test?

All right, I know you're strong.

Qingkui,

you're watching me

from above now, aren't you?

You sacrificed your life

so I could live my remaining years.

Don't worry.

I'll live well.

Where do the fireworks come from?

-That's beautiful. -Look at that.

Consort Xue.

Emperor Tun.

Our guards

from the Void Patrol Battalion came

to report that Immortal Xuanshang

was setting off fireworks for Princess Yetan.

My sister-in-law now has the mood

to watch fireworks.

Does this mean

she has moved on?

If that's the case, Tan is all right now.

I'll go and see her now.

Emperor Tun.

Emperor Tun, you're overjoyed

that you're being unmindful.

At this moment,

Tan and Immortal Xuanshang

are being affectionate with each other.

Why would you want to disturb them?

Consort Xue, you're right.

I'm so happy

that I forget.

I noticed

Tan lost a lot of weight

from trouble sleeping and eating lately.

How about

we prepare

her favorite hotpot tomorrow?

Sure.

Will it be beef or lamb hotpot?

-Yetan? -Yetan?

Tan.

Tan.

Thank you for everything

you've done for me.

I'm truly

grateful.

Father.

My dear child,

you don't have to thank me.

I've owed you too much for the past 18 years.

I should have done everything

that I'm doing now sooner.

Father,

you're also grieving the loss of your daughter.

And you're still putting a lot of effort

into doing all these for me.

Qingkui may be gone.

But I'll live well

for her sake.

She sacrificed her life

to protect mine.

I'll do what she wanted to do

and love the people she loved.

Father,

I'm both Yetan

and Qingkui.

Both of your daughters

are here.

So, is it lamb

or beef hotpot?

We'll have beef.

Bring a few jars of good wine.

Let's get drunk and enjoy the moment.

We'll drink and enjoy the moment!

Has he been waiting

the whole night again?

I never expected

Shaodian Xiaoyi,

that heartless old man,

to have two sons

who are loyal and righteous.

When will I ever meet

such a good man?

Some people

are just too blind

to see what's close to them.

What does that mean?

Forget about it, then.

Gu Haichao, be clear with your words.

Can you

finish your sentence?

You're... You're back.

Have you been waiting for me?

Yes.

I'm worried about you

since you look quite down.

So I came to find you.

Would you like

to take a walk with me?

Of course.

Where are we going?

Come with me.

Tonight, the stars are shining brightly.

So I would like to invite you, Qingheng,

to come stargazing with me

and have a conversation.

What did you just call me?

I called you by your name.

Is that improper?

Not at all.

I like it when you call me by my name.

Before this, I asked you to call me that.

But you always refused.

You either called me Second Prince

or Immortal Qingheng.

It felt too distant.

Tonight,

you're not the Second Prince of the Heavenly Realm

or an immortal.

I'm also not the fairy of Dongqiu

who lurked in the Heavenly Realm.

We're just Suzhi and Qingheng

having an honest conversation.

There are countless living beings under this vast sky.

Every wish they make

is like a drop in the ocean.

The chance of being heard by the immortals

must be extremely slim, right?

Yes.

But you heard

the wish I made back then

and you even took care of me.

It was such a great fortune.

You...

Thank you,

Qingheng.

You finally admit

that you were the coriander plant

from back then.

Since I met you,

I often thought about how great

it would be if I were not

from the Dongqiu tribe

but just that coriander plant.

The little fairy from the Five Spice clan

ascended to the Heavenly Realm by herself

and suffered from mistreatment.

But she was fortunate enough to have the Second Prince

of the immortals' earnest protection,

friendship despite social status,

and his company.

Such a story

will surely become a great tale.

I...

I know the blood feud between the immortals and Dongqiu

can never be settled.

But if you're willing,

I'll protect you forever

and never let you down.

If

we could erase everything,

there wouldn't be resentment

in this world.

I can only thank you on behalf

of that little coriander plant.

Thank you for giving her scriptures

and teaching her magic.

Thank you for giving her a warm cloak

and for all your care

and sincerity.

Thank you

for everything.

She has no way to repay you.

But she'll always remember it

in her heart.

Su...

Do you really not need us

to stay here with you?

We were supposed

to have a hotpot with Di Lanjue.

The three masters sent someone early this morning

to inform us

that the Heavenly Emperor can't handle official duties

after he lost his cultivation.

Besides,

Suzhi suffered a huge blow

because of the Soul-Gathering Lamp.

It wouldn't be helpful for her recovery

if you all stayed here.

Why don't you go back first?

We can enjoy hotpot another day.

All right.

After I help Qingheng take care

of the affairs of the immortals,

I'll come back to you.

Then we'll go and live

the ordinary life

you spoke of.

[Fenyuan Hall]

What's wrong?

He's worried about Suzhi.

She hasn't been willing

to leave her chamber these past few days.

So he's been guarding

outside of the door for several nights,

afraid that something might happen to her.

I saw her last night.

She returned

everything I gave her.

I'm getting more worried about her.

I saw her last night too.

She still has resentment.

If you stay here,

you will only remind her of those painful memories.

It's better for you all to go back first.

Then I'll leave her to you.

Then,

we're leaving.

All right.

Look.

Not bad.

Your Highness.

Greetings, Your Highness.

Your Highness,

it's been a few days since we last saw you, but you look much better now.

As soon as you've recovered,

your beauty and grace are back too.

What were you talking about earlier

that made you so happy?

Feng is finally

having an appetite.

He started eating.

Indeed,

he's no longer picky

and even had five bowls of rice.

Is he feeling a lot better now?

His physical health has improved.

But he's been acting even stranger lately.

He hasn't slept

for several days and nights.

What happened to him?

As for what specifically happened,

maybe you want to go inside and see for yourself.

What are you doing?

Reading.

You're right on time.

How do you read this character?

You can't even read all of the words.

How are you supposed to read all these?

Where did you get all these?

I've been thinking about this for the past few days.

If the Ganoderma Vein

was really that powerful,

how could it just disappear like that?

I want to see if there's any way

to bring Kui back to life.

But the Void Realm has always been focused on martial arts

and doesn't have many books.

So I asked the brothers of the Void Patrol Battalion

to search for these ancient texts.

Thank you for being willing

to go to such lengths for my sister.

But if there really was a way,

would the four realms

let my sister and I off so easily?

You didn't come here

to thank me for this,

did you?

I wanted to tell you

that Wudai is still locked up in the Cave of Haunted Souls.

Please release him.

I don't want to be the leader

of the Void anymore.

It's time to return it

to the Crown Prince of the Void.

You don't want the position anymore?

I don't.

I don't want revenge anymore.

I thought

you would blame me for not killing the Heavenly Emperor.

Actually,

when I witnessed my father's death,

I was upset too.

Now that the Heavenly Emperor

has been punished,

I think Kui

would also understand.

Now that your heart is at ease,

Kui's flower spirit

is also at peace now.

I'll leave you to do what you're doing, then.

Where are you going?

I'm going to see if Suzhi is feeling better.

If you see her,

ask her to think carefully

if there are any legends or secrets

which can bring Kui back to life.

With you guarding my sister,

I can be at ease.

By the way,

I heard you started eating.

Remember to eat more

so that my sister doesn't worry about you.

Your Highness, are you hungry?

I made some coriander pancakes just now.

Come and have a taste.

Your Highness,

I spoke a lot of nonsense

at the Ninth Heaven Hall that day.

Please don't take it to heart.

And consider this delicious meal

as my apology to you.

I never blamed you.

Have you truly let it go?

Since you forgave them

and the Heavenly Emperor and Void Tyrant

had also received their punishment,

I should let go as well.

As you've said,

fate may be destined.

But it's up to us to live our lives.

I've made up my mind.

I want to live well in the future.

Qingheng was still worried about you

before he left.

If he knew you had moved on,

I'm sure

he would be overjoyed.

I'll send someone

to deliver a letter to him later.

No need, Your Highness.

I'll make sure Immortal Qingheng understands

my intentions.

There's something I want to tell you.

I'm leaving.

Where do you want to go?

You've already...

How about this?

Youqin and I are planning

to travel and engage in some trades.

Why don't you

become our shopkeeper

and manage the business for us?

We can take care of each other this way.

Your Highness,

I've been away from home for too long.

I want to go home.

Do you want to go back to Dongqiu?

You'll be all alone...

This...

The four realms still have prejudices against Dongqiu.

So I want to go back

and live in seclusion

in a familiar place.

You don't need to talk me out of this anymore.

All right.

I'll personally send you back.

My father brought

several warm clothes,

cotton boots, and hand warmers from the palace.

Wait here.

I'll bring them for you.

All right.

Kui,

are you feeling better?

I didn't know how to take care of a flower spirit.

I don't know what to do either.

I heard Miss Suzhi

has been in a bad mood these days.

When she feels a little better,

I'll go and ask her

to teach me how to take care of the flower spirit.

By the way,

Yetan came to visit you just now.

She looks so much better.

I guess she has let go of her hatred,

and her heart is healing.

Everything

is getting better now,

but you're the only one

who couldn't make it back.

Sir,

Miss Suzhi is here.

Greetings, Prince Chaofeng.

Why did you want to see me, Miss Suzhi?

I will be returning

to Dongqiu today.

Before I leave,

I want to visit Princess Qingkui.

After all, Princess Qingkui

is the flower spirit of the Ganoderma Vein.

She has a deep connection and shared roots

with the Dongqiu tribe.

After I leave,

it's unlikely that I'll see her again soon.

Why so sudden?

I wanted to ask you

about the way of taking care of the flower spirit.

Your Highness, don't worry.

I'll write down the method

for taking care of the flower spirit.

However,

this method is a bit complicated

and may be difficult to remember.

Your Highness, may I borrow a brush and a piece of paper?

Sure.

Haichao,

prepare the writing materials.

Hurry up.

Yes, sir.

Miss Suzhi, please wait for a moment.

Haichao!

I'll go and get them myself.

Sir!

Sir, here are the brush and paper.

Miss Suzhi, where is His Highness?

He went to look for you.

You can give me the brush and paper.

I've finished writing them.

Please give it to His Highness, Officer Gu.

I'm meeting Princess Yetan.

So I'll take my leave now.

Sure.

(Chaofeng,)

(help!)

(Chaofeng! Help!)

Kui!

Kui.

Kui!

Haichao!

Yes, sir?

What's the matter?

What happened?

I...

I have no idea.

Did anyone touch the flower spirit?

Besides you,

no one gets near the flower spirit.

Wait a minute.

It was Suzhi.

When I came in earlier,

I saw Miss Suzhi

standing close to the flower spirit.

(I thought)

(she was grieving for Princess Qingkui.)

Miss Suzhi, where is His Highness?

It was Suzhi.

Suzhi swapped

Kui's flower spirit.

Find her now!

Yes, sir.

No one's here.

Sir, Miss Suzhi said

she was meeting Princess Yetan.

Why don't we go

and check at Yetan's place?

All right.

No one's here.

Greetings, Prince Chaofeng.

Have you seen Princess Yetan?

The Princess and Miss Suzhi had left.

Did they say where they were going?

No.

Yes.

Sir, calm down.

It's possible that Princess Yetan

entrusted Miss Suzhi

to take Princess Qingkui's flower spirit

to offer sacrifices.

Don't be a fool!

Yetan came to see me this morning.

If she wanted Kui's flower spirit,

she would have asked me directly.

But this Suzhi is strange.

She has been urging Yetan to seek revenge

since Kui's death.

There must be more to this than meets the eye.

Sir,

what should we do now?

Suzhi said

she would return to Dongqiu.

I'll go to Dongqiu.

Inform Shaodian Youqin

about this matter.

All right.

The last time we came here,

we were in a hurry.

I didn't expect it to be so vast.

In the past,

the Dongqiu tribe was thriving with fertile lands

under the protection of the Sacred Tree.

There were hundreds of households

on this piece of land here alone.

The chief's house is over there.

There's a large flower field

in front of her house.

I would play with my friends

in her flower field.

Where was the Ganoderma Vein?

It was over there.

When I was young,

I could see you both

when I opened the window.

Everyone would bring their harvest for the year

and gather under the Ganoderma Vein tree.

They would set up a market

and trade goods.

When night came,

they would slaughter cattle and sheep

and prepare a huge feast.

Before we started the feast,

everyone would kneel and pray

around Ganoderma Vein,

praying for safety

and a smooth year for our fellow tribespeople.

After the feast,

everyone would sing and dance

around the Ganoderma Vein.

Immortal Xuanshang,

something bad had happened.

Miss Suzhi

stole Princess Qingkui's flower spirit

and took Princess Yetan with her.

Do you know where they went?

This morning,

she said she was returning to Dongqiu.

Prince Chaofeng

headed to Guixu first.

This is bad.

Let's go.

There, there.

You already said

you would live well after this.

Yes, you're right.

Where do you plan

to build your house?

Over there.

Whenever I faced troubles

when I was young,

I would be there,

looking out at the Guixu sea

until my mother came looking for me to go home.

The view here is really good.

I'm sure it feels great

to open the window to this view every day.

Let's stop here.

Please let me address you as Your Highness one more time.

Thank you

for taking care of Husui in the Heavenly Realm.

Why do you make it as if this is a farewell?

Don't worry.

I'll always come

and visit you in the future.

I'm afraid

there won't be a future.

What is this?

This place is very close to Guixu.

With the Twin Flower here,

it's only natural for the Force of Chaos

to become turbulent.

Twin Flower?

You...

You stole

my sister's flower spirit from Chaofeng!

There's no point

in struggling.

I've planted the remaining root of the Ganoderma Vein

into your body.

No matter how hard you struggle, it won't help.

Why are you doing this to me?

The four realms have been so cruel to me.

They won't even

let the spirits of my people rest.

I'll make them pay with their lives!

Yetan,

take one last look at this world.

Remember the world as it was in its final moments.

Suzhi!

Tan!

Tan! Tan!

Tan!

Fifth!

Chaofeng.

I just searched Dongqiu thoroughly.

But I couldn't find them.

Why is there an anomaly in Guixu?

This is impossible.

Didn't you use

your Perfect Celestial Body

to repair the seal of Guixu completely?

The reunion of the Twin Flower

triggered the Force of Chaos.

Could it be...

Yetan and Kui's flower spirits

must be inside the depths of Guixu.

I'll go and save them.

I'm coming with you.

Sir, be prudent.

You haven't attained Perfect Celestial Body.

Going into the vortex of the Force of Chaos means certain death.

Chaofeng,

no one knows Guixu better than me.

I'll go save them.

You stay here

and set up a barrier

to stop the Force of Chaos from spreading.

Hopefully, Fifth can rescue them.

Come on, cast the spell.

All right, sir.

Suzhi!

Qingkui.

Qingkui!

Suzhi!

Suzhi!

Stop struggling.

The four realms will return to chaos.

You can't stop this catastrophe.

Have you gone mad?

You know you can't resist

the destruction of the Force of Chaos.

But you still want to undo the seal of Guixu.

I'm not afraid of death.

I want revenge.

I want the four realms

to be buried with Dongqiu tribespeople!

I thought

when the four realms

considered me an enemy,

you would take my side and support me.

When my sister died,

you were the one who stayed by my side.

I trusted you

and relied on you.

I didn't expect you to deceive me.

I also trusted

and relied on you.

Before we attacked the Heavenly Realm,

you promised to clear Dongqiu's name

and make the Heavenly Emperor pay with his life.

But what happened?

You kept compromising,

and you forgot

all the hatred!

The four realms made me lose everything.

So I want them to have

a taste of despair!

Is there nothing

in this world

that you cherish at all?

Qingheng has always been sincere with you.

Even after knowing

you're from the Dongqiu tribe,

his love and care for you

have not diminished in the slightest.

(The little fairy from the Five Spice clan ascended to the Heavenly Realm by herself)

(and suffered from mistreatment.)

(But she was fortunate enough to have the Second Prince)

(of the immortals' earnest protection,)

(friendship despite social status,)

(and his company.)

(Such a story)

(will surely become a great tale.)

(I know the blood feud)

(between the immortals and Dongqiu can never be settled.)

(But if you're willing,)

I'll protect you forever

and never let you down.

You're right.

If it weren't for Qingheng,

I wouldn't even be able to transform into Husui.

I've let him down.

Suzhi.

Suzhi,

the Guixu seal has not yet been shattered.

So long as you can quickly remove

this root from my body,

we still have a chance.

You and I will die here today.

Everything started because of Guixu.

So let Guixu

end it all.

Suzhi.

Suzhi!

Father!

Mother!

I've finally comforted

the spirits of you all!

Suzhi!

Suzhi!

Suzhi!

Qingkui!

[Yongle Gate]

Look at that.

It's Guixu.

But it can't be.

How is this happening?

(Could it be Suzhi's doing?)

Empyrean Xuanshang just went to Guixu.

Immortal Qingheng,

let's go and support him.

You stay here. I'll go check things out.

Hurry!

Quickly!

This is bad. This time the upheaval of Guixu

has shaken the foundation

of the Beast Tribe.

The destruction this time

is more severe than before.

I'm afraid something disastrous is happening.

Should we write another letter to the Heavenly Emperor?

But now the Heavenly Realm is without a ruler.

So writing a letter may be pointless.

Lan is still in the Void Realm.

What...

What should we do now?

Hurry!

Go that way!

All right.

Be careful.

Emperor Tun, be careful.

Emperor Tun!

Be careful!

Emperor Tun.

Consort Xue,

what's going on?

Suzhi stole Kui's flower spirit

and tricked Yetan into going to Guixu.

This anomaly may indicate

something has happened in Guixu.

What?

Have you informed Xuanshang about this?

Prince Chaofeng, Immortal Xuanshang, and Haichao

have already rushed to Guixu.

We didn't expect

something like this to happen.

My daughters...

I have to go to Guixu!

No, Emperor Tun!

-Emperor Tun! -Emperor Tun.

Emperor Tun,

how about this? Calm down.

Ziwu and I

will go and check the situation

in Guixu.

Sushui!

Watch Emperor Tun and Consort Xue.

All right.

Let's go.

Emperor Tun.

Emperor Tun.

Emperor Tun.

Sir!

Guixu's seal is broken!

Fifth hasn't come out with Yetan

and Kui's flower spirit.

We must not let the Force of Chaos

endanger the four realms.

Or else the sisters will become

the apocalypse of the world for real!

I can't hold it any longer.

We rushed over

as soon as we received the news.

Where's Tan?

Fifth went to rescue her.

I didn't expect Guixu's seal

to be completely broken.

Youqin will definitely

save Yetan.

We should secure

this barrier.
