[The Legends of Changing Destiny]

Episode 18

Youwu, how did you know

they would take the terms?

Normally, that wouldn't be possible.

But it's different this time. This warship

is in fact, left by us

to avoid Tianhe Army

while we escaped from the Pond of Purple Cloud and Azure Waves.

Later, it was seized by the Tianhe Army.

If we were to ask

for Tianhe Army's warship,

that would be impossible.

But if we ask for the heavenly patrolmen warship from Black Tortoise Unit,

that's a different case.

After all, this warship belongs to their ally.

Even if they bring it back to Sky Harbor as the spoils,

they must return it to Nine Heavenly Gate.

They retrieved the gemstone of the core array

and reported to the Heavenly Court

that the array has been destroyed,

that would be a reasonable reason

to abandon it.

Your reason seems suitable.

This is what you ask for,

to replace the gemstone of the core array.

Thank you, Martial Brother.

Even though Tianhe Army has retreated,

they wouldn't be far away from here.

Possibly they're in lying in an ambush around Serenity Valley.

It's not an easy feat for nearly a thousand

demons to cross tens of thousands of li

without being discovered by the Heavenly Court.

Martial Brother, I'd like to

ask you for a favor.

What again?

- Hurrah, my lord! - Hurrah, my lord!

- Hurrah, my lord! - Hurrah, my lord!

- My lord! - My lord!

Such an untamed demon.

Wuji lads.

- Yes, Master. - Yes, Master.

Go to Qilai Mountain now

and keep an eye on that rock demon.

Report back if you spot any slightest movement. Don't slack off

or draw his attention.

- Yes, Master. - Yes, Master.

This matter is of great significance.

It's fine if the rock demon finds this out.

However, if anyone intervenes you,

finish them right away, understood?

- Understood. - Understood.

You may go now.

- Yes, Master. - Yes, Master.

Master, Tenth Martial Brother

seems to have known something already.

All right.

Now that he

has gone to Qilai Mountain, I'm afraid...

It's time to reveal something to him.

If he's clueless about everything,

there's no way

he will proceed with what he wants to do.

Master, are you letting him be?

Yes, the seed has been planted.

What we can do now

is to give it enough sunlight and nutrients.

One day, it will begin to sprout

and grow into a big tree.

Martial uncles.

Martial Uncle Lingyun.

How's Rocky doing in Lingyun Pavilion?

What else can he do?

Look at how eager you're.

Rocky wrote to me?

[I'm doing good here.]

I'm doing good here.

That's all? How brief.

That's more than enough.

By the way,

I received a letter

when I was cleaning at Rocky's place last time.

It was in the same handwriting.

Read this.

I thought someone

was pretending to be him and writing to me.

Look, Rocky wrote a letter to me.

I'm so happy.

Rocky, please return soon.

I'll be waiting for you here.

Lippy has been feeling down lately.

Yes, ever since White Ape died,

he's been like this.

Later, when you were saved

and he found out about Ox's death,

it got worsen.

We're home.

I won't leave this time.

Whether it's life or death, I'll stay there.

I won't let you die.

Rocky.

It's really Rocky.

- Rocky. - Rocky.

That's right.

Rocky.

I thought you wouldn't come back.

Why would I not come back?

Rocky, where's Canary?

Where's Canary?

Where's she?

Where's Canary?

She...

- Where's Canary? - Where's Canary?

She's died.

Died?

She's died?

Que'er and I have found

a cave here.

Let's see if it's suitable.

Watch out.

I sense a powerful defensive formation here.

But the power has been depleted

after ages.

If I had rushed in here recklessly back then,

I might not have been able to get out.

You have dumb luck.

The environment here is quite good.

You might end up here well,

even if you were trapped here.

Had I been

trapped in this cave,

I wouldn't have been able to go to the Yaoguang Cave,

and I wouldn't have been able to make a deal with you

giving you the chance to fool me.

Don't you pretend like you didn't take advantage of me.

You're the fine one to say.

Meeting me

is the greatest advantage of your life.

Fine, I benefited too.

The two of us meeting each other

is the greatest thing that has happened in this life.

It doesn't seem like an immortal's dwelling.

It looks like a cave for the demons.

But there's one thing I'm certain of,

probably many demons were living here

and they were powerful demons.

Feijuan Chamber of the Qilai Mountain.

This chamber is spacious and secluded enough.

If we deploy a formation at the tunnel, the

external enemies can be accurately detected

for defense purposes.

I'm planning to make this our base.

Besides, we will dismantle the warship

out of the surveillance of the Heavenly Army.

The metal scraps

will be transported to Feijuan Chamber.

And everyone can settle down here.

Lion.

Have you inspected all the routes?

Yes. There's no problem.

Can this really work?

Formations and secret weapons are on set.

Have you found the whereabouts of the Six Demon Kings?

Yes, Marshal.

Traces are showing

that all of the Six Demon Kings have secret connections with Yuzhen.

Yuzhen of Yuzhen Mountain?

Exactly.

Yuzhen seems

to have reached an agreement with the Six Demon Kings

providing them with elixirs and spirit instruments.

Continue searching along the clue of Yuzhen.

Yes.

Marshal, the warship is ready.

We're ready to depart.

Set off now.

Sky Harbor is so magnificent.

I didn't expect that I could be here

and get the escort of Marshal Beichen.

This is a blessing in disguise.

- Greetings, Marshal Beichen. - Greetings, Marshal Beichen.

Marshal, your mighty reputation for eliminating demons is well-known.

I've long admired you.

Besides, having you escort us today

is the greatest pleasure for us.

Sky Harbor is magnificent

and the Tianhe Army is strictly disciplined.

Marshal, you're truly admirable.

Immortal attendants,

please get ready to depart for Tinted Cloud Division.

Even the sight of his back looks valiant.

Just thinking about

spending the next few days with Marshal Beichen,

it makes my heart beat fast.

Marshal, everything's normal.

Noted, you can get back to your work.

I'm now a small soldier,

but I will become a great general in the future.

After I make a great and meritorious achievement,

I will come back and marry you.

Thank you.

Please believe in me. I, Shen Xiao, will keep this promise.

I will marry you for sure.

Enemy detected.

Attention! Escort the immortal attendants into the cabin.

Nichang!

Don't move.

Nichang!

Let go of her.

That woman risked your life to save you.

It seems that something is going on between you.

Listen up. I know we can't kill you,

but I can kill her.

I said let go of her.

I will.

Nichang!

Beichen.

Beichen.

What do you want?

When I was on the Tianhe Warship,

I saw everything clearly with my own eyes.

Immortals are always different from us.

Looking at your dainty face

makes me feel like cherishing you.

It's a pity that your complexion is affected by the poison.

Beichen, you destroyed my Dragon City.

How should I respond to him? Tell me.

How about killing his woman first?

And then chop off his four limbs

and slowly torture him.

What a shame. He's already dying.

He can't be in this game.

Deities taste so differently,

delicious and tender.

I'm going to savor you.

Nichang.

Nichang, are you all right?

Nichang.

Nichang.

This poison is strange.

The formation set up in this valley

seems to contradict the poison in her.

If I take her out forcefully,

her life will be compromised.

No, it's dangerous.

No. Don't harm him.

It's all right.

Beichen, someone's after you.

I heard some bad news.

Many deities

are preparing to make a big deal out of the flower bud.

And some demons want to harm you.

I'm really scared.

Don't be. I'm here.

Don't be scared.

What should I do?

Over the thousand years,

we could never be together even though we always met,

we're like strangers.

I really want to see you,

but I'm afraid of harming you.

What can I do?

♪ Protecting each other yet unable to be together ♪

♪ Like a flower, you bloom and wilt, like the pure enshrouding mist ♪

♪ How to let go of this love ♪

♪ You rise and fall like the tide, life is like a painting ♪

♪ Am I the shadow in yours? ♪

Are you all right now?

Yes.

♪ Like the pure enshrouding mist ♪

Are you sure?

♪ How to let go of this love ♪

♪ For a lifetime, I seek the flower within the mist ♪

♪ The one I can never get close to must be you ♪

We came late. Please forgive us, Marshal.

Tianfu went to chase after Roc-Demon King and Rabbit Demon King.

Any news from him?

Not yet, Marshal.

The formation has been broken. Please return to the warship, Marshal.

Go and find out

who set up this formation.

- Yes. - Yes.

Thank you for taking care of us these days, Marshal.

I'm all right.

I shall take my leave.

Send out the orders to eliminate the Six Demon Kings

and attack their den.

- Yes. - Yes.

What's wrong with you, Nichang?

You...

Perhaps the poison isn't completely cleared.

What should we do?

I will ask Marshal to treat you.

No.

Nichang.

Marshal is tied up to deal with the chaotic demons.

I shouldn't bother him.

Don't worry.

I've brought along the elixir from Immortal Taiyin.

I'll be fine

soon after taking it.

But...

It's fine if we alert the rock demon.

He's merely in Crystallization Phase.

That rock demon won't detect us.

Master is just overly cautious.

Before we left, Master repeatedly remind us

to report everything to him.

Anyway, we should keep a close eye on him.

What are you doing here?

I'm building myself a big house.

Something like that.

How can you build a house inside the water?

Houses are supposed to build inside the water.

Ignorant kid.

Out of my way.

Kidnapper Lv, say something fair about this.

How can he build the house

in the water?

Besides, this stream

is far away from Rocky's place.

I don't want to live here.

He likes to live in the water because he's a frog.

If you don't like it, you can ask King Rocky

to give you a place you like.

Aren't you a mole?

Make a hole for yourself.

Why bothers to build a house?

You're a squirrel.

Why don't you live in the tree?

Gosh, why are they fighting? Stop.

Why did you beat me?

What's your problem?

- Beat him. - Beat him.

Hey.

Beat him.

What's wrong with you?

Stop it.

Beat him.

Stop it already.

Youwu.

I've arranged everything well for White Ape.

Thank you, Martial Brother.

Also, I found out

that Venerable One went to the Underworld twice

and flipped through the Book of Death.

From this,

it can be seen that he knows

that Que'er isn't in a state of death by some means.

Do you mean

Que'er has revived or transformed into a human?

If you want to find her,

you can find the answer

from where the Venerable One last read.

But I have to remind you

that Que'er was indeed led by someone,

and that person knew

that the Venerable One could find out through this way,

but still dared to do it.

It seems something big is behind this.

Got it.

Youwu.

Did you ask your men

to transport the metal scrap of the warship here

to do smelting in Qilai Mountain, right?

Whatever you want to do,

don't do anything foolish.

No worries.

I know what I'm doing.

Glad to know that.

If you encounter any problems,

write to me.

I'm returning to Serenity Valley.

Please take care of yourself.

You too, Martial Brother.

I'm thinking to set up an academy here.

In this academy,

I will have Kidnapper Lv teach them to read.

So that they won't be illiterate anymore.

Besides, he will teach them the proper technique to cultivate

to improve their cultivation.

Well, I understand that they need to improve their cultivation,

but why did they have to learn to read?

It's my first time hearing this.

It'll be of great use in the future.

You can transcribe what you've read

from the Northern Yaoguang Cave.

We can establish our own Sutra Depository.

I have to say,

you have more guts than me.

I went to Sutra Depository

only after I discerned

Master's thought.

Did Master give you hints too?

Actually, I happened to discover

the basement under the Sutra Depository.

The door was open when I went there.

The door

was open?

I think Grandmaster Jiekong

intentionally let me take a peek at it.

Probably he already knew

that you would leave the Northern Yaoguang Cave.

That was why he hinted at me to teach you everything.

In this way, you can build a solid foundation

and improve your cultivation

before you left.

In that case,

he had already known

that I would make a deal with you.

What a devious fox.

He wants me to breakthrough the Heavenly Path.

He should teach me some skills, anyway.

But I don't think he knows

what we're going to do next.

Do you know what the toughest punishment

of the Northern Yaoguang Cave is?

Expulsion from the sect.

At that time,

I fought with my brother.

So,

I decided to find a master.

The reason for doing so

is to find books in the Sutra Depository

and I will return to Lan Mountain

once I'm expelled.

Speaking of which,

I'm the Sacred Mother of Lan Mountain conferred by the Heavenly Emperor.

Once I'm back at Lan Mountain,

I will find a scholar

and begin a celebrated romance

like what my mother did.

I shall see what my brother is going to do to me,

to trap me under the mountain

or something else.

Do you really want

to marry a frail scholar?

Why not?

I see nothing good in scholars.

They are just useless.

A king in the mountain like me is way better.

What's wrong with the scholars?

They're knowledgeable,

gentle, and understanding.

Listen to this.

Not all scholars are like that.

They are rigid,

inflexible,

and defenseless.

A man who needs a woman to protect them

isn't a man.

As the Scared Mother of Lan Mountain,

you can't marry such a weak man.

Do you think you're better than scholars?

I'm one hundred times stronger than a scholar,

and I can protect you.

I've been protecting you all the way here.

Besides,

I'm not looking for a bodyguard.

The cultivation level isn't within my consideration.

What if the scholar has an ugly face?

Are you going to marry him too?

How do you know that even before you see him?

Yes, I know.

I'm way more gorgeous than him anyway.

Are you sure?

Your appearance

is quite decent.

But it's only when you're a human form.

I think any human

is better looking than a demon.

I think

after the agreement ends,

I will go back to Lan Mountain

and marry a scholar.

It's worth considering.

To be honest,

I still can't accept

that my brother submitted to the Heavenly Court,

even now.

I'm not afraid of death,

and I'm sure he's not either.

But

he bowed down to the Heavenly Emperor and the Venerable One.

This is more unbearable than death.

Perhaps people are attracted to the same like.

So,

I prefer stubborn

and unbending people.

But my brother failed to save Mother

when he faced

the mere Heavenly Court,

Heavenly Emperor,

and the Heavenly Law,

let alone turn the tide.

And your situation

is much worse than his.

If this continues,

will you become

another Yang Yan?

Or will you

perish into ashes at last?

Back then

when I served at Guanjiangkou,

life was pretty tough there.

The Heavenly Court...

Do me a favor.

Get up.

Who's disturbing my peace in the morning?

Oh, you have quite a temper.

My lord, I didn't know it was you.

My apologies.

Please forgive me, my lord.

Go to Lan Mountain now

and find the scholar there.

Gosh, I don't know his name.

Forget it.

Look into those

with a good look.

And bring back their portraits.

Scholar?

If you find this person,

make him disappear.

Disappear?

I said, make him disappear.

Yes, my lord.

I will surely

make all the good-looking scholars in Lan Mountain

disappear.

Speaking of scholars,

it really gets on my nerve.

What's so good about scholars?

My lord.

As the saying goes, "Scholars are knowledgeable".

Well...

You're a typical case of it.

Poor and weak.

By the way, there's another thing.

Get prepared

to set up an academy.

Set up an academy?

My lord.

Don't you hate scholars?

Why would you want to set up an academy

to foster scholars?

Why?

Are you against it?

I dare not.

Cut your crap then.

Set up the academy

to teach them to read.

From today on, you're the teacher

of Qilai Mountain.

In the shortest period,

teach them how to read and write.

Teacher?

My lord.

Have I done anything wrong?

No, you did very well.

If that's the case,

why do you want me to teach them?

My lord, I can...

I want you to be the teacher

because you did well.

This is a task of top priority.

Only you can handle it.

I'm counting on you.

Thank you for your trust, my lord.

Take care, my lord.

A matter of top priority?

To find the good-looking scholar or to set up the academy,

which one should I do first?

I have a task for you.

Gather a scout team

to inspect the areas around Qilai Mountain.

Be careful while you're inspecting.

Though this is my hometown,

I don't know much about it.

Scout as thoroughly as possible.

If you detect any demonic power

or immortals' places,

don't take any action

and notify me first.

Thank you.

It's my job.

Greetings, Deity Yuzhen.

Please drop the honorifics, Marshal Beichen.

I don't own a post in the Heavenly Court.

We can be friends of an equal state.

Thank you.

This is the fog bamboo tea

from Yuzhen Mountain.

I grow this myself.

Marshal Beichen.

Please have a taste.

Good tea.

But as a martial person,

I can't explain

why it's so good.

I'm afraid this is a waste for me to taste it.

Marshal Beichen, your reputation is well-known.

You're a real hero.

It's surely not a waste for you to drink it.

I came here with a request.

Go on.

I would like to ask you

to stop providing weapons and elixirs

to the Demon Kings of the Xiliu Continent.

Are you going

to be the sole purity

amidst the vast and ambitious power?

Do you know how much profit

my Yuzhen Holy Hall makes each month

from supplying weapons and elixirs to the Demon Kings?

Around one million gold.

You're well aware of this.

If that's the case,

why do you ask me to stop?

Why don't you focus on your own duties,

like dealing with the Demon Kings

and reporting to Nine Heavenly Palace

to manage the deities up in heaven?

Why come to me first?

Isn't it wrong?

If you continue

to send aid to the Demon Kings,

the Heavenly Court will lose its current majesty

and the Three Realms will fall into chaos

laying waste to the sentient beings.

I don't think

you really need this bit of gold essence.

So, why assist evil?

It seems

that you're a pure loyalist.

Laying waste to sentient beings?

What are sentient beings exactly?

Aren't the demons you killed

considered sentient beings?

If you refuse to help,

I shall be awfully frank with you.

Roc-Demon King used this

to attack me.

I guess the formation in the valley

was created by you, right?

I could proclaim this to the public,

and I know I will be against everyone

in the Nine Heavenly Palace alone

and wind up in death.

However, it can be a reminder to the Heavenly Emperor

to close off this path.

You possess limitless power,

and I believe

you won't want to get into this trouble.

However, you may not be able

to continue to rake in from the business.

Since you have to stop the business either way,

why don't you help me out this time?

I will repay your kindness

one day in the future.

Do you really want to mess up my business

even at the cost of your life?

I'm willing to forsake my life to offer this advice.

Out of loyal officials throughout history,

many of them were willing to forsake their lives.

As the deity,

how can I do lesser than them?

A great general like you is going to die in the court

instead of on the battlefield,

isn't that lamentable?

That's the situation I'm in now.

I have no choice.

Please understand.

Since that's the case,

I will stop providing the weapons and elixir

to the Demon Kings temporarily.

However, you need to act quickly.

If the Demon Kings name

a more tempting price,

things may change.

Thank you.

I will repay this favor in the future.

Forget about it.

I just don't want to bear the blame

for forcing Marshal Beichen

to death.

The sole tree can't stand on its own.

The chaos in the Heavenly Court

is beyond you.

I always want to see

if you have three heads and six arms

as the legends say.

But meeting you in person

has made me lose millions of gold essence.

It's too expensive.

I won't come again

next time.

(It's not just beautiful women who are doomed to suffer, )

(but loyalists too.)

(You'd better brace yourself.)

It's not just beautiful women who are doomed to suffer,

but loyalists too.

Marshal.

Why don't we report this

to His Majesty?

There are countless deities from the Heavenly Court involved in this.

They can form an immeasurable force against us.
