[The Legends of Changing Destiny]

Episode 35

They want

to do us in here.

What?

They didn't want to negotiate then.

How cocky of them.

Hear, hear!

What gives him the confidence?

If he were in our shoes,

he wouldn't say yes either.

That's right.

He wouldn't say yes.

Sound the cannon!

Sound the cannon?

We will let them know

that is our response.

But they have King Rocky now.

Is this the right move?

They

are using Rocky

as leverage.

If we fold,

there will be no more reasons left to keep Rocky alive.

Therefore,

we cannot concede here.

Understood?

Understood.

Sound the cannon!

Oh, Yang Lan.

Any of you

has a solution?

Come. Have some tea.

Thanks.

Why do you want

to see the Venerable One urgently?

And who was the man you talked to

in front of Wuji Hall?

Also,

do you know a Rocky

in Northern Yaoguang Cave?

Rocky told me

that he went to Wankong Mountain in Chigu

to study to become a deity.

I wonder if he has succeeded.

Rocky...

Where are you going?

Miss Fengling.

It's dangerous outside. Please stay here.

The Venerable One

is trying to imprison me here.

Move aside!

Miss Fengling, please...

Don't!

Don't do anything foolish.

Your obsession

makes you so predictable.

Bring me to the Venerable One.

Miss Fengling.

Master is training in solitude.

He is busy.

If you won't bring me to him,

I'll go to him myself.

Move aside!

Bring her to me.

Yes, Master.

Sir!

Sir.

You are a girl.

You shouldn't toy

with a dagger.

Have a seat.

Sir,

the clamor outside...

Did something happen to Rocky?

Sir,

are you trying to kill him?

If I wanted to kill him,

I wouldn't have saved him back then.

Why would I give myself unnecessary work?

And now?

Will you save him?

Sir,

I'm begging you.

Please save Rocky.

He did nothing wrong.

If

the Heavenly Emperor didn't view him as an enemy,

this wouldn't have...

Nothing is ever black and white.

Everything merely follows a path.

The rock demon decided to foster the demons,

so he

shall face the wrath of humans.

You spent some time with them in Qilai Mountain,

so you think the Heavenly Court is unjustly harsh.

But have you thought

about what would happen to mortals

if demons grew unchecked?

Take you for example.

You pursue what you desire.

Did you do anything wrong?

Your hardship

is the result of your decision.

All right.

I will handle him.

Don't worry about that.

Relax.

I just wanted to stretch a bit.

You're imprisoned too?

You hit me

with Wuji Bracelet, didn't you?

You stole it from him?

Is that why you're here?

You framed me for the fire in the Celestial Peach Garden.

You told Gujing to wait for me by the Nine Heavenly Gate.

You asked Flying Dragon to use Wuji Bracelet.

It's all your idea, isn't it, Brainless Chen?

Tell me.

When

did I cross you two?

Brainless Chen, if you weren't so hellbent

on erasing Qilai Mountain,

I wouldn't have needed to become an official in Heavenly Realm.

And you, Flying Dragon, what the heck?

You stole Wuji Bracelet to capture me.

But you ended up

being arrested too.

So what's in it for you?

Brainless Chen,

I heard the Heavenly Emperor

sacrificed your Tianhe Army.

But you can't do anything about it.

You know,

we should work together.

I like your commanders hip,

and you're loyal.

Join me in Qilai Mountain.

You can be a general.

I can give you 200,000 soldiers.

Enough for you to raid the Underworld

and revive

whoever you want.

So?

My deal is more enticing

than the Heavenly Emperor's promise, isn't it?

Insolence!

And you. You're not worthy of my attention.

I will beat you into a pulp

when I have the time.

Speak for yourself, rock demon.

You are chained here.

Chained?

What a joke.

My army is knocking at the Nine Heavenly Gate.

Do you think the Heavenly Emperor dares to kill me?

The demons are rising.

Is your emperor ready

to go down with me?

If he is,

I'll give him credit for it.

Anyway,

is anyone coming

to your rescue.

If someone breaks me out

of this place

while you two die here...

That'd be a shame.

Your Highness.

Do we continue?

Yes.

Let them know we're here.

Yes.

Also,

send in a messenger.

Tell the Heavenly Emperor

that we will retreat if they release Rocky.

All demons of Qilai Mountain

will also respect the Heavenly Court.

And they can still pride themselves as the strongest of the Three Realms.

Otherwise,

they'll lose the demons.

and the mortals.

Yes.

What should we do?

This is tough.

Any idea?

Speak up now.

If none of you will speak,

then let's take turns.

You first, Taibai Jixing.

Your Majesty,

I...

I have no idea.

You have no idea?

It was your idea to stop

the Tianhe Army from raiding Qilai Mountain.

It was your idea to bring the rock demon here.

And you even ushered him personally

Among all the officials here,

you know him best.

If anything, you should be the one that offers a solution.

The problem-maker shall be the problem-solver.

The problem-maker shall be the problem-solver?

Explain.

Enlighten us.

It all traces back to the Venerable One.

Interesting.

I'll give it a try.

Why don't you go and confront him now?

No, I can't, Your Majesty.

The Venerable One is training in solitude now.

He will not see us.

But he will see someone.

Who?

Fengling.

Master,

Taibai Jixing sent us a missive.

It is addressed

to Miss Fengling, from His Majesty.

To me?

Read it.

Yes.

What does it say?

His Majesty wants me to deliver

another missive to you.

But I am training in solitude.

You can't meet with me, can you?

What

will you do

when you receive this missive

and you can't talk to me?

What will I do?

What does it say?

His Majesty wants to know how to handle Rocky.

And?

That's all.

What will you do

after you read the missive?

Is it not obvious enough?

I don't get it.

You don't have to understand everything.

That rock demon

is

a hot potato.

By giving in to the enemy's demand,

the Heavenly Emperor will look incompetent

in front of everyone.

But if he kills the rock demon,

he can't defend against the demon army outside the gate.

He will also be guilty

of all the havoc that will take place

following his decision.

His only way out now

is to send Rocky

to Wuji Hall

so that I can clean up the mess.

But I am training in solitude.

Understood now?

My officials,

what do you think

of the Venerable One's reply?

Your Majesty,

the Venerable One wants

the rock demon to be sent to Wuji Hall.

I'm sure he has his reasons to do so.

There's no use to speculate why.

Right.

If that's what the Venerable One wants,

we

should comply.

In that case,

I shall not argue further.

Proceed

as you see fit.

Tell the enemy that we refuse the peace talk.

Gate defenders, get ready

and wait for my command.

Yes, Your Majesty.

The Venerable One wishes to transfer the rock demon to Wuji Hall?

Yes,

as stated in the missive.

The handwriting is suspicious,

and the seal is in the wrong place.

Someone forged it.

Impossible.

It's from the Venerable One!

Besides, this is His Majesty's order.

Are you trying to defy His Majesty?

The Venerable One told me to transfer Superintendent to Wuji Hall.

Unchain him at once!

Rocky.

Are you okay?

I was telling them I didn't need any help.

but here you are,

making me look bad.

Your pride isn't as important

as your life.

What do you mean it's not important?

I am King Rocky.

I command a million soldiers.

I have to look the part.

We met when you

were donning that stupid robe.

No need to maintain your image before me.

All right. Get up.

His Majesty made a mistake!

Come with me.

(I'll spare your life, Brainless Chen.)

(Next time, I'll kill you.)

Marshal Beichen.

Marshal Beichen.

How are you?

He escaped.

It's his voice.

I heard his voice.

He escaped.

He escaped!

Rocky escaped!

That's wonderful.

King Rocky is free.

He is out of the Heavenly Prison,

but he isn't out of the Nine Heavenly Gate.

Assemble and get ready

to pick him up.

Yes!

Oh, no.

They are barging in.

Put on your armor and get in formation.

Prepare to fight.

Open the gate and fight!

Attack!

Kill them all!

Kill them all!

Charge!

Rocky,

did you signal them to attack?

The Nine Heavenly Gate is equipped with an All-Seeing Mirror.

Disguising spells will not work here.

When it's heavily guarded,

we two cannot make the escape.

But now

that the Heavenly Army is occupied,

it'll be easy to walk out.

However,

you might get caught in the crossfire.

I need to find a way to ensure your safety.

No need.

I can protect myself.

Ta-da.

Wuji Bracelet?

Why do you have it?

The Venerable One gave it to me.

He did?

(The Venerable One gave Fengling Wuji Bracelet to help her escape.)

(Why is he doing this?)

What's the matter,

Rocky?

Nothing. Do you know how to use it?

The Venerable One gave me

a few tips.

Then use everything you know

to protect yourself.

Sir, the demonic army is here.

They are attacking.

If Taibai Jixing hadn't been

such a nuisance,

we would have razed

Qilai Mountain to the ground.

They wouldn't have

grown out of control like this.

And you wouldn't have been held captive here.

The Tianhe Army wouldn't have...

It's okay, Marshal Beichen.

His Majesty will save you.

No need.

I like it here.

It's quiet.

Rocky.

Let me try.

Stop fighting, Father.

The rock demon didn't head to Wuji Hall.

He escaped.

Welcome back, my lord!

Welcome back, my lord!

Sir...

Being a demon

isn't half bad.

I envy them.

Fengling impersonated the Venerable One,

released a criminal,

and stole Wuji Bracelet.

She committed egregious crimes.

and should be arrested immediately.

Fight us. Why did you stop?

For real?

I'll leave then.

Farewell.

Welcome back, my lord!

Well done.

The lot of you impressed me.

You weren't like this at all.

At ease.

Thanks, my lord.

King Rocky.

Thank you.

Let's go.

Welcome back, my lord!

Welcome back, my lord!

Welcome back, my lord!

At ease.

Thanks, my lord.

I thought you wouldn't return.

They can't kill me easily.

Thank you

for all these years.

The world is changing.

It's working.

It's working!

Now that the rock demon has escaped,

we need to capture him again

and we need talents.

I would like to give you a second chance.

Desperate times call for desperate measures.

Everyone knows

how dire the situation is,

so don't voice any opposition.

If Beichen falls,

we will be the next targets.

What do you say?

You'll be reinstated,

and you can rebuild the Tianhe Army.

Take your time.

It is a tough decision.

But not too long, please.

One day here in the Heavenly Realm.

is one year in the Mortal Realm.

Although it pains me to admit it,

the demons have grown too strong

that they are now a threat to us.

We

are running out of time.

Your Majesty,

I am but a criminal.

Please give me a death sentence.

Nichang is dead.

She reincarnated.

I could tell myself that.

But my brothers in arms.

My hundreds of thousands of soldiers.

Tiannei.

Tianren.

Tianxin. Tianqin.

Tianfu...

Even Tianheng

took his life in this hall.

As their commander,

I have no reason to live.

Your Majesty,

this is my decision.

End my life.

Give me a death sentence.

I know you lost

your reason to live.

But the Tianhe Army has a legacy now.

For millennia,

everyone bears witness

to their countless feats.

All Tianhe soldiers

were initially mortals who became deities through cultivation.

When they pass away, their souls will head to the Underworld,

and they will be reincarnated as humans once more.

Tianren and Tiannei

are the best examples.

I suggest we build

Tianhe Mausoleum on the Beiju Continent

to commemorate their valiant legacy.

Beichen,

will you do me the honor and be the mausoleum guard?

On behalf

of my fallen brothers,

I thank you, Your Majesty.

Your Majesty,

the head of the Ten Underworld Overlords, Lord Xuanming

said that a catastrophe befell the Mortal Realm

and millions of souls

arrived at the Underworld.

Greetings, Master.

The volcanoes on Beiju Continent

are still erupting.

Many have died.

This is unusual.

Since the Heavenly Rock is cracked,

this might be the result of an aberrant Heavenly Path.

Oh, the chaos.

I have used my power

to seal the volcanoes.

Its activity will cease.

Head down to investigate further

and save the innocent.

Yes.

Oh, the Venerable One.

Don't you care a lot about the Heavenly Path?

Why aren't you stopping the tragedies

that surround the Heavenly Path?

Unless you want to destroy it?

No one can stop me, the Malevolent One!

The first phase is over

You're too late.

I have already done Yang Lan in.

She will be dead sooner or later.

The second phase begins now.

I decide the fate

of the people close to you.

Yang Lan cannot escape!

It's been ages

since we last met.

I remember the day I left,

you helped me get changed too.

I forgot to bring

the cape back.

It's a pity.

Because

I would love to...

Behave!

But I thought you liked me this way.

Tell me you missed my cheekiness.

I...

Where is the pouch I gave you?

I brought mine back.

It's inside here.

It

must have been very tough on you

all these years.

I bet you were enjoying your time

as the superintendent.

Were you surrounded by beautiful immortal attendants?

It was for our plan.

Are you not over it?

It was for our plan?

You were mixing business and pleasure.

I bet you miss the Heavenly Court.

Are you upset?

I...

Why don't I read your palm for you, Sacred Mother?

I'm not like those stupid attendants!

How dare you?

Right.

They don't usually hit me when I read

their palms.

Are you implying that I'm feisty?

Huh?

It has been

several decades.

I spent a few weeks in the Heavenly Court

but trust me, it felt like years to me.

Without you by my side,

everything felt excruciatingly slow.

Did you pick up the art of flattery

in the Heavenly Court?

Oh, Sacred Mother.

You are way better at smooth talking.

You are way better at smooth talking

than me.

Like what you wrote to me once.

A wife follows her husband anywhere he goes.

I...

Can I hear it from you in person?

Rocky!

Yes, Fengling?

I... I...

Is there anything I can do for the banquet?

Kidnapper Lv is handling it.

You can just rest.

Speaking of which, Rocky, let's discuss the banquet.

Come.

This contains

the recent goings-on of Qilai Mountain.

This

is about the banquet.

The main purpose of the banquet

is to celebrate your safe return.

In addition,

we will also award those who fought bravely.

I have already drafted your speech,

so you just have to follow the schedule.

This is a lot.

And this

is the name list of our tributaries.

King of the Four Seas, the Ten Underworld Overlords,

and some human envoys?

Humans want to befriend us?

Are you sure?

Why not?

With their help, we'll have an easier time

collecting resources.

It's always good to maintain

a diplomatic relationship

So when

they are attacked by demons,

they can asks us for help.

What's on your mind?

It's just that

there are so many things to handle here,

and those five demon jerks.

won't give you a moment of peace.

I need to discipline them.

No need.

After we came back from the Heavenly Court,

they learned to behave.

I wouldn't have appointed them as vanguards otherwise.

I'm glad to hear that.

Having

a few more capable fighters

is a good thing nonetheless.

But you know, I can't stand

desk work at all.

Aren't I supposed

to be the gang leader here?

Why do I feel like I'm running a nation?

No gang leader can command

millions of demons.

I owe it

to you

Everything is overwhelming at first.

But in time, you figure out a way.

I have to do something.

I should go now.

I'll leave you here.

What should I do?

Should I tell Rocky

about Que'er?

Yang Lan? Oh, yes!

I can tell her.

She can help me.

Yang Lan, it's me Fengling.

I want to tell you something.

Can I come in?

No.

I'm occupied.

But...

Yang Lan!

Close the door.

Yang Lan, what is this?

What happened?

I'll tell Rocky.

He'll save you.

Don't.

I want to hide it from him.

But...

He won't be able

to help anyway.

I have tried everything.

But Rocky

has the right to know.

Why do you want to lie to him?

He just came back.

He needs to handle many things.

The Heavenly Court is still a threat

to us.

I don't want

to increase his burden

Qilai Mountain cannot afford

to lose its leader.

Don't worry.

I can handle this.

I'll tell him hen the time is right.

Are you okay, Yang Lan?

Can I do something for you?

Help me change the dressing.

All right.

It might be able to reduce the discomfort.

Hang in there.

You said yo had something to tell me.

What is it?

Oh, nothing of import.

I wanted to have a chat with you.

Bear with me, Yang Lan. It's almost done.

Long live King Rocky!

Long live King Rocky!

At ease.

Thanks, my lord.

Present the tributes!

Yao Palace has selected

these Night-Luminescent Pearls,

coral reefs, pearls, jades,

and other curiosities for you.

I hope you'll like them.

toast to you, my lord.

A toast to you, my lord.

Welcome back!

Welcome back, King Rocky.

I should be the one proposing a toast.

Qilai Mountain wouldn't be this prosperous

without all of you here.

It's all yours, my lord.

It's all yours, my lord.

Please get up.

Thanks, Your Highness.

Thanks, King Rocky.

Rocky,

you are a ruler now.

You have to act the part.

Or they will not respect you at all.

What's bothering you?

Nothing.

Growing up,

you always

wear your heart on your sleeves.

Don't deny it.

So you're a grown-up now,

and you won't tell me what's bothering you anymore?

I...

Just

tell me.

Maybe I can help.
