[The Legends of Changing Destiny]

Episode 10

(Someone was here recently.)

(Canary, the owner of this grave,)

(must have died before her time)

(because of the rock demon.)

(But where is her wandering spirit?)

(Has someone)

(guided the soul somewhere?)

(I can't summon the Tudi Gong here.)

(I fear the worst has happened.)

One mistake led to many more.

I didn't get to the bottom of it,

so someone must have taken advantage of my oversight.

(Canary's name is not on the Book of Death.)

(Who could have)

(taken Tudi Gong?)

(Who got ahead of me)

(and took Canary's soul?)

(If Jiekong guided)

(Canary's soul away,)

(why would he send Qingfeng to investigate?)

Could it be

that there is someone other than Jiekong

behind all of this?

A mystery within a mystery.

When Rocky sees

all the scriptures I've copied for him,

he'll be overjoyed.

Rocky should be back soon.

He will be hungry when he is back.

Greetings, Grandmaster.

You asked for me?

Grandmaster?

What are you doing?

Fengling.

After taking the Spirit Dilation Pill,

you lost three years' worth of attainment.

The spell will take some time,

but it can help you regain the attainment you lost.

Grandmaster, that's very kind of you.

Thank you.

Qingfeng is always away.

You spend a lot of time with me.

I consider you half a disciple.

There's no need to thank me.

Now that your master...

Now that your master is traveling to the Northern Continent,

I'm in charge of your cultivation.

Come to me if you need anything.

I understand.

But Grandmaster,

Master left in a rush after returning.

I barely had the chance to talk to him.

When I was indisposed,

he never visited.

He left without ever

saying a word.

Your master travels a great deal.

What's the matter?

Getting clingy?

When he comes back

and sees that you've reached greater attainment,

I'm sure he

will be proud of you.

All right.

Your martial uncle went to Kunlun Mountain.

He won't be back for some time.

You need not wait here every day.

As for your cultivation,

keep it in mind,

not on the list.

I understand.

But Grandmaster,

I'm in no rush

to reach higher attainment.

But it's different for Rocky.

What if he comes back?

When he realizes

I've cleaned his room thoroughly,

he can live there anytime.

Grandmaster,

I can have my cultivation

over at his place.

You took the cultivation too lightly.

You took the Spirit Dilation Pill recklessly.

If you can't raise your attainment level,

how are you supposed to help others?

Understood.

From now on,

I won't neglect my cultivation or the cleaning.

Very well.

Dismissed.

I take my leave now.

Rocky!

Come back!

Come back and you can learn the Great Spell of Nine Alterations!

Come back!

Rocky.

When are you coming back?

Senior,

Saint Baimei's reply

has been delivered.

It's time we head back.

It's the time yet.

We can't leave.

What time?

I mean...

Don't...

Don't you like the place?

Saint Wuding and I

are still old friends.

All right, Tenth Martial Brother.

Consider this a vacation.

You mean,

you're not going back?

No.

Even if I don't want to go,

I can't just freeload here.

Right?

But we just got here,

so we have to stay

for months at least.

Tenth Martial Brother.

You rarely get a chance to come outside.

Consider this a relaxing trip.

But everyone looks scared

when they see me.

How can I be relaxed?

You have a point.

How about this?

We'll go back to Lingyun Pavilion in a few days.

Don't worry.

There's no one there

who fears a demon like you.

It's true. What say you?

Tenth Martial Brother.

I meant to ask you something.

You've joined us for quite some time.

Why don't you give yourself a Taoist name

or a proper name?

Youwu...

With a "zi" at the back,

it's "Youwuzi."

That just sounds weird.

How about Taoist Youwu?

How does that sound?

Taoist Youwu?

It doesn't match

the names of your martial siblings.

See the pattern here?

Qingfeng,

Qingyun, and Lingyun.

But you're Taoist Youwu?

It won't work.

I have an idea.

Let's fix a fine day

for some mortal poets to come up

with

a nice name that rhymes with ours.

I don't want to rhyme with you.

Stop changing the topic.

When I ask you to go back,

you brush me off with excuses.

When are we leaving?

If you insist on leaving,

I won't be responsible

for your misfortune.

Who cares?

I want to go back to Wankong Mountain.

You!

You're an ingrate!

So,

the Tenth Beacon of Light

seems different

from the rest.

Well, I am different from my martial brothers,

the 12 Golden Deities.

Why the long face?

I think this isn't that bad.

If you can only be yourself,

why choose to be someone else?

I came to realize that a long time ago.

In the past,

I had tried doing many things

the way my martial brothers did.

But I couldn't succeed,

not to mention a lot of setbacks.

One day, I had this realization.

Then...

And then?

And then I reached this state.

(How is that good in any way?)

(I have no idea what Wuding is trying to say.)

See that?

This is my secret trinket to detect spiritual energy,

the Spirit Detector.

Take it.

This is for me?

A low-attainment Path of Alteration

can only sense the enemy's blood thirst.

The detection of spiritual energy

is far inferior.

This item can make up

for that flaw.

Yang Yan had one.

I gave it to him.

It has another function.

If you want to sneak into somewhere

or even

escape from somewhere,

point this thing in the direction you're heading.

Scout the area.

You'll know

if there's an ambush up ahead.

This should come in handy.

Thanks.

I have another item.

Do you want it too?

There's more?

This is a jade strip.

It can be used for communication

and getting the exact location

of the other person.

Well...

You,

go outside the cave.

Outside?

Just do as I say.

Fine, I'll go.

Can you hear me?

Can you hear me?

Loud and clear!

Why are you yelling?

So you can feel its wonder!

Isn't this extraordinary?

You can be worlds apart

and still hear the other side.

However,

if the communication is between the Mortal Realm and the Heavenly Court,

since the time passage is different,

it won't work.

However,

you can make a work around by connecting more jade strips.

Is that clear?

Can I even get to the Heavenly Court?

But this thing makes communication

a lot more convenient.

Thanks.

I'll be taking this.

War drums.

What is that?

As ordered by Marshal Beichen,

we shall conduct conscription on Kunlun Mountain.

Any able-bodied mortal

is allowed to be drafted

to bolster the Heavenly Army

in defending the Heavenly Path.

For the Heavenly Army! For the Heavenly Path! For justice!

Well-trained,

neat and imposing troops,

uniform movements,

and high morale.

One shouldn't trifle

with any of the soldiers.

Que'er!

(They are the Heavenly Army)

that killed Que'er and the monkeys on Qilai Mountain.

Cursed demon.

How dare you come to Kunlun Mountain

and obstruct our conscription?

Take him down!

Hold on!

Officers.

This is a misunderstanding.

A misunderstanding.

Who are you?

Wait, you don't know me?

I am one of the famous

Nine Beacons of Light,

the renowned Lingyun

from the Lingyun Pavilion. on Lingyun Peak.

We came to Jinxia Cave as guests.

We're visiting an old friend.

He is also a guest here.

I see. You're Lingyun.

What?

It's bad enough

you keep these demons on your Lingyun Peak.

Now you're bringing them to Kunlun Mountain?

Officer,

that was a bit out of line.

You probably don't know me well.

I love making friends.

Everyone on Lingyun Peak

is my friend.

I don't keep them.

In that case, get lost.

Do not come anywhere near this place.

We won't be responsible

if you get wounded by accident.

As for you, Lingyun,

behave yourself.

It's no wonder you're a lowly grunt!

How could you not know who I am?

How ignorant!

All right.

Tenth Martial Brother,

don't be angry.

Don't take it to heart.

But on the other hand,

the demons keep stirring up trouble

and making enemies.

That is why the Heavenly Army

is wary of them.

Is that so?

Is it right to beat them up

before even knowing

their past

or even their names?

Is this

your so-called justice?

Tenth Martial Brother.

There are things

that can never be black and white.

Which company are they from?

Who's the commander?

How can you not know that?

That's Marshal Beichen's Tianhe Army.

They have come here for the conscription.

Their warships are getting bigger and better.

(Marshal Beichen?)

(They mentioned Marshal Beichen just now.)

(Beichen...)

(It's an army from the Heavenly Court.)

(Beichen is the high and mighty marshal of the Tianhe Army.)

(No wonder he keeps getting in my way.)

(Beichen, just you wait.)

(I'll master the Great Spell of Nine Alterations.)

(I'll avenge Que'er and the Monkey Elder.)

You know what?

The elite Tianhe Army of Marshal Beichen

is the best of the entire

Heavenly Court.

They get

better prospects and benefits.

Many ascetics can't wait to fawn over them

whenever they are around.

Tenth Marshal Brother!

Stop training.

Everyone went to watch the Tianhe Army.

We should check it out too.

Let me show you

the mighty warship of the Heavenly Court.

What's the big deal?

It's only a bunch of junk and scraps.

The Tianhe Army is recruiting.

This is a chance of the century.

See it to widen your horizon.

I'm not going.

I have to finish my training.

Hold on.

Of course you can train.

You do that anytime you want.

But, it can wait.

When Yang Yan wreaked havoc at the Nine Heavenly Gate,

he killed a lot of the Tianhe Army's soldiers.

Therefore, they

are conscripting on a large scale.

There will be crowds.

It's a sight to behold!

You will regret not going there.

Are you sure?

(I guess it's a good idea to see if their reputation holds true.)

(It's better to know my enemies.)

All right.

I'll go.

Let's go, then.

Come, I'll show you the way.

We can't be late for that.

Hurry.

Get up!

Move!

Move!

Next.

Next.

I can't stand this!

This is the selection process for heavenly soldiers.

The selection process for heavenly generals.

is even more exciting.

You can't leave now.

Tenth Martial Brother.

Does it pain you to see those demons

get slaughtered?

I have an idea.

How about we work together and set those demons free?

Well?

Go to sleep.

It's your turn tomorrow.

Sleep while you still can.

Don't waste your time.

Let me out!

Hurry.

Go!

After him!

Bring the demon here.

Did he let you out of the cage?

It's him.

Don't you dare arrest him!

Yang Lan?

He is a guest of Jinxia Cave.

I'm responsible for his action.

When I'm around,

no one shall hurt him!

Just now,

someone sneaked into the Tianhe Army's camp

and set the demons meant to be used in the selection process free.

That feral cat demon confessed.

He's the one who set them free.

Yang Lan.

Will you obstruct

the Tianhe Army's hunt?

Any witnesses?

Any evidence?

We all heard

the cat demon's confession.

We are the witnesses.

Who knows if you meant to frame him?

If you have no proof,

do not make accusations.

Leave now

before there is bloodshed.

I'd be more convinced

if Yang Yan said those words.

You?

Arrest him!

A misunderstanding!

A misunderstanding.

It's all a big misunderstanding.

What?

Lower your hands.

Lower your weapons!

I am Tianheng. I serve Marshal Beichen.

Greetings, Saint Wuding.

You know me!

This should make things easy.

Listen.

I like your personality.

Hear me out. The whole commotion

is a big misunderstanding.

This silly rock

is a guest of Jinxia Cave.

I guarantee

that he will never purposely

sabotage your conscription.

Besides,

it's he said, she said.

It's all hearsay, right?

It has to be some kind of misunderstanding.

We all heard

the cat demon's confession.

We'll know

if you're right

after we interrogate

him.

What now?

It's best you stay out of this.

Otherwise...

Otherwise what?

I'm one of the 12 Golden Deities.

If you anger me,

you will never get to conduct conscription

on Kunlun Mountain!

Listen closely.

I'm taking him with me.

If you want him,

Marshal Beichen can come and see me in person.

Leave!

Brother Wuding.

Why didn't you ask

if I set the demons free?

My eyes

are still sharp as ever.

Since I know the answer,

why bother asking?

Brother Wuding,

you think too highly of me.

You'd even

ruffle the Tianhe Army's feathers to save me.

They kill harmless demons to select soldiers for their army.

I can't stand their methods.

Besides, I believe in my eyes!

Besides, it's no big deal.

Right?

If I let the Tianhe Army take you,

I'd be

letting my friends down.

I'd be a disgrace.

What if I didn't set the demons free?

I believe you.

But do you believe

what you said?

I knew it.

Is that what you think deep down?

Here, have some fruit porridge.

Is Senior Lingyun back yet?

Don't you think

he's been acting strange lately?

Our trip to Kunlun Mountain

is already fishy.

For some reason, the old man refuses

to leave.

Yeah.

What was I supposed to do here?

Why did Master send me here?

Senior Lingyun somehow

doesn't want to leave.

Don't you think

he's waiting for something?

What could it be?

Tell me.

Does Kunlun Mountain take in

demons as disciples?

I don't think so.

But I see a lot of beasts

on the mountains.

What if they ascend and become deities?

Are you saying there are demons that became deities in the Heavenly Court?

Have you learned

what they do up there?

They either become steeds

or are chained up

to guard a palace entrance.

Even the dragon clan.

has no place in the Heavenly Court.

They can only live in the seas.

So,

the Taoist sects don't accept demons as disciples.

It's not entirely true.

Wankong Mountain took you in.

Besides, Lingyun is famous

for his demon disciples.

It's different.

His disciples

live in his Lingyun Pavilion.

They never leave Lingyun Peak.

Are you saying

Jiekong has an ulterior motive for taking you in?

Tenth Martial Brother!

I heard it as soon as I came back.

You got injured last night.

Are you all right?

I'm fine.

Anyway, take the medicine I prepared.

It's good for your health.

All right.

Senior.

Someone set the Tianhe Army's demons free

and framed me.

The Tianhe Army wants to arrest me.

We should head back to Wankong Mountain now.

Yes.

Let's go back.

Grand Martial Uncle Wuding.

We have a message from Grandmaster Baimei.

He wants you to come by for a visit.

It's all right.

The Tianhe Army

must have ratted me out to my martial brother.

It's nothing.

I can take care of it.

Much obliged.

I shall go now.

Senior.

Did you summon me

to make me hand over Rocky?

Rocky? Is that the name

of that rock demon?

He is wanted by the Tianhe Army.

You should hand him over.

Someone else set the demons free

and framed him.

If he's taken by the Tianhe Army,

he's as good as doomed.

Do you think everyone believes him?

You want him to be taken while he's on Kunlun Mountain?

The Heavenly Army has always been cruel to demons.

If anything bad happens to him,

how do I explain it to Jiekong?

Don't forget,

Rocky's level of attainment is low,

but his seniority is otherwise.

Officially, I run Kunlun Mountain.

But the truth is,

each of you rules your own land.

Everyone is aware of that.

The Heavenly Court governs the Six Paths.

The Tianhe Army is investigating,

it's well within our duty to cooperate.

As for how they will treat the rock demon,

that is not our concern.

All right.

How about this?

We should

at least

say goodbye to Saint Wuding.

After that,

we can return to Wankong Mountain.

Never mind.

I can contact him with the jade strip.

Let's go.

All right.

Arrest that rock demon!

(Old man,)

(where are you?)

You...

Martial Brother.

The title of the 12 Golden Deities

can be very useful.

I don't want you

to abuse this reputation.

You shall stay here today.

We can have a nice conversation.

As for the people at Jinxia Cave,

they are not your concern.

You need not worry about them.

Hold on. Let's all calm down.

Calm down.

This is a misunderstanding.

Lingyun.

It's you again.

Yes, it's me again.

This is a misunderstanding!

This rock demon set

the demons we imprisoned free.

There is no misunderstanding.

Arrest this rock demon!

Hold on!

Wait.

Don't you know me?

I am Lingyun, Grandmaster Jiekong's disciple.

Officers,

can't you look the other way?

If Grandmaster Jiekong

needed us to look the other way,

he'd write Marshal Beichen a letter.

But you, Lingyun,

if you insist on

obstructing us,

I'll charge you with aiding and abetting.

Yang Lan, no!

Let's leave.

You can't leave.

If you did, your name would never be cleared.

How does handing over

the rock demon

make any difference?

I know

what you are up to.

Go!

After them!

Yes!

Run

as far away as you can.

What about you?

I'll regroup with you.

I'm not particularly powerful,

but I can easily

outwit them.

(Yang Lan)

(is more cunning than her brother.)

(She wants vengeance.)

(She is unlike her brother.)

(However, she knows medicine,)

(alchemy, and metallurgy.)

(She probably surpasses me)

(in these fields.)

What?

Why aren't you leaving?

Listen up.

Someone must stay to stall them.

They are my old rivals.

I can deal with them.

Don't worry.

I won't take any risks.

If it gets desperate, I can count on my brother.

But it's over if they capture you.

Go on, stop dillydallying.

I've fought them countless times.

I know how to deal with them.

I'll find you.

Go!

Don't die.

Attack!

Yang Lan!

Step aside

before it ends badly for you.

Come at me if you dare.

You and your brother

serve the Heavenly Court.

You must abide by the law.

You are abetting the rock demon.

Is the demon

doing your bidding?

Is that why he released

the demon we imprisoned?

When did the Tianhe Army

start partaking in slanders?

Yang Lan!

You slaughtered our soldiers.

I shall make you pay for all of your crimes today!

Take her back to the warship.

The rest of you, keep searching for the rock demon.

Yes!

At your command, Third Prince!

What was that about?

An enemy attack?

What's so funny?

I find it funny that all of you are so easily scared.

You!

You, check it out.

Yes.

Greetings, Third Prince.

Who did this?

You mustn't release her.

She helped the rock demon escape.

We've informed Marshal Beichen.

Do you think I won't slay you this instant?

If Brainless Chen asks,

tell him I released her.

If there's anything else,

he can find me at the Third Prince Palace.

One more thing.

I have a habit

of taking naps.

My friends and I are playing shuttlecocks tonight.

He can come in the morning.

If not, he can wait all he wants!

Yang Lan,

it's all right.

I'm here for you.

Thank you.

Lan.

I forgot how to make the butterfly knots

you taught me.

Why do you want to learn that?

The Dragon Maiden is tired of watching

my spear moves.

Dragon Maiden?

Who is that?

Is it Dragon Maiden Sancai?

Yes, it's her.

Are you flirting with her now?

Don't make fun of me.

You can't call that flirting.

Our friendship is pure and innocent.

Silly kid.

Let's go.

Third Prince.

We don't want any trouble.

Lan.

I came to your rescue

as soon as I heard about it.

I think I deserve some compliments.

Spill it.

Who told you about my arrest?

He's...

He won't let me tell you.

Say.

It's my third brother.

How did he know?

Lingyun told him.

He heard about it from Lingyun?

It's true.

Earlier today, Lingyun said

that his friend would be arrested by the Tianhe Army.

My third brother asked me to handle it.

He told me to make sure the friend didn't suffer.

I was supposed to change the name and the records

and put the guy in jail.

When I arrived,

my third brother told me

it was you who got arrested.

He told me to get you out right away.

I got a little rash and...

You attacked their warship?

Your father will

have to clean up your mess again.

But the Tianhe Army fears you.

Did you get into trouble in the Heavenly Court?

I don't care what he does.

I'd love for His Majesty

to take my title away.

Then I can go on adventures

with my third brother.

Silly boy,

you don't know how serious this is.

Where is Lingyun now?

Lingyun is...

He's at Jinxia Cave,

surrounded by the Tianhe Army.

Didn't he ask you to rescue him?

He didn't.

I asked.

He said no.

He liked getting surrounded.

By the way, where is the old man?

Where is he now?

I mean, Saint Wuding.

I have no idea.

Lan.

Beichen ran into a love problem.

Recently, Taibai Jixing set up a stall

at the Nine Heavenly Gate.

A 3:1 payout

on Marshal remaining safe and sound

in 500 years.

4:1 payout on him.

being relegated to the Mortal Realm

in 500 years.

And

if he gets banished to the mortal realm

within 500 years

and reincarnated as cattle,

it's 100 times the payout.

Lan, care to join the gamble?

Forget it.

Why would anyone bet on the last one?

Actually, someone did.

Who?

Me.

My master is here.

Lan, you should leave.

I might not be able to keep things under control

when he comes here.

Don't worry about it.

Leave it here.

Hey, give us a hand!

The rock demon!

After him!

Foolish rock demon,

he's lost his mind.

(Under his)

(cold demeanor)

(lurks a dangerous devil.)

(If it goes berserk,)

(no one can keep it under control.)

(Perhaps)

(I'm playing with fire.)

(The burden he carries)

(sets him on a path)

(to becoming more dangerous than my brother)

(because he has no attachments.)

(But if that's the case,)

(why did Jiekong take him in?)

(Why is Lingyun trying)

(to get him)

(into the Heavenly Court's prison?)

(I guess I'll have to play it by ear.)

Pursue!

(Foolish rock.)

(How much havoc is he going to wreak?)

Master.

How dare he raise the Soul-Seize Array

the Heavenly Army uses to gauge military contribution.

What is Lingyun's motive?

I'll bring Yang Lan back.

No.

Marshal.

Are we supposed to let her get away?

Yang Lan

slaughtered our soldiers at Nine Heavenly Gate.

She now serves the Heavenly Court.

She was in the wrong,

but she killed our soldiers nonetheless!

She has no respect

for the Tianhe Army.

We should seize this opportunity

to teach her a lesson.

Don't you get it?

Yang Lan surrendered to the Heavenly Court

only to protect Yang Lan.

If Yang Lan is harmed in any way,

Yang Yan will want payback.

It will be another calamity for the Heavenly Court.

We must not let the matter escalate further.

What about the rock demon?

He's the cause of it.

He killed

many of our soldiers.

Are supposed to

let him go

for Yang Lan's sake?

We are the proud Tianhe Army.

We shouldn't tolerate

the rock demon's audacity.

If he slips away too,

we will suffer great humiliation.

We will be shunned in the Heavenly Court.

The rock demon must be apprehended.

You must capture him.

Yes!

Consider it done!

Flowers don't speak,

The wind is quiet,

The moon shines,
