【ENG DUB】Every Hug Gave Me More Life, But I Never Expected The Broken Prince To Steal My Heart

[00:00:00]So, the girl is still alive.

[00:00:02]Perfect.

[00:00:04]Let's test the goods for the brothel ourselves today.

[00:00:19]HEY.

[00:00:20]WATCH MY EYES, YOU LITTLE BRAT. STOP RUNNING AWAY. PLEASE DON'T RUN.

[00:00:24]>> TASTE MY family's signature fish dish.

[00:00:26]Get lost.

[00:00:31]Is this a handsome human from television? Oh, no. My tail wants to wag.

[00:00:37]>> See, why you run?

[00:00:38]>> This pipe looks strong. I'll hide behind him.

[00:00:41]>> Who are you, kid?

[00:00:42]Trying to play the hero? Are you him?

[00:00:50]>> Oh, cool.

[00:00:52]This handsome human is the savior of this fish.

[00:01:01]>> You were sent by the emperor as well, weren't you?

[00:01:04]>> Huh?

[00:01:19]Hey, human. Wake up.

[00:01:22]Hey.

[00:01:25]Though you look handsome and you saved me, what if you kill me upon waking?

[00:01:32]Becoming human is hard.

[00:01:34]Hm.

[00:01:37]Though you saved me, I dare not save you.

[00:01:40]I am sorry.

[00:01:47]The owner's contract. I am taking it now.

[00:01:53]>> Why did you bring me here?

[00:01:56]Could you give a hand?

[00:01:58]Congratulations. System shop is now active for you. What is this? Host, you unlocked a skill. Death countdown. Save one life for a point.

[00:02:09]Exchange for item.

[00:02:13]This is the system shop from the shows.

[00:02:16]It has food, meds, weapons, and rare items like the golden pill to change fate. And a cent.

[00:02:22]Great. I will work hard to earn points for the pill.

[00:02:26]Rise to be godly.

[00:02:32]What is going on?

[00:02:34]Do humans get dehydrated, too?

[00:02:40]What is this death timer?

[00:02:44]Is it yours?

[00:02:45]Or is it mine?

[00:02:47]Mine.

[00:02:50]Fish is dying.

[00:02:52]Fish need water.

[00:02:54]Back in it, should be fine.

[00:02:58]It just won't work.

[00:03:01]Host, you must approach the hero to stop it.

[00:03:06]Hold hands, hug, kiss, or sleep. Your life extends by 1, 5, 24, and 8,760 hours.

[00:03:19]I see.

[00:03:20]So, you are my portable fish tank.

[00:03:23]Sleep can add a year to your life.

[00:03:26]Then, emergency. This human needs to borrow a fish to rest.

[00:03:42]Why are you so hot?

[00:03:44]No.

[00:03:45]My tank must not shatter.

[00:03:52]Life extended by one whole hour.

[00:03:54]The system did not lie to me.

[00:03:56]>> Claiming my father sent you.

[00:03:59]Or was it my uncle?

[00:04:01]>> Forget them. I saw you had a fever. I wanted to help.

[00:04:05]>> You could have left.

[00:04:07]But you returned. What is your motive?

[00:04:12]You staged this little performance with these two just for my benefit.

[00:04:16]>> Just a script this show.

[00:04:18]>> Not a human.

[00:04:20]How rude. If I were evil, when you fainted, I would have used a heavy rock to finish you off right then and there.

[00:04:25]Wouldn't that be much easier?

[00:04:28]Rest assured. Fish is a man of his word.

[00:04:32]You can trust him.

[00:04:35]>> Believe it?

[00:04:41]>> Father.

[00:04:42]I am late to save you.

[00:04:57]>> Your majesty.

[00:04:59]The crown prince is staging a rebellion.

[00:05:01]Here is the proof.

[00:05:05]>> Xau Xan plotted treason.

[00:05:08]Evidence is solid. He posed as prince.

[00:05:11]Exiled to the dungeons.

[00:05:17]>> My emperor.

[00:05:20]>> You are so capable.

[00:05:21]>> Family is power.

[00:05:23]>> Xing Yu is still young.

[00:05:25]How notable.

[00:05:27]You never learn that.

[00:05:30]Never trust anyone at all.

[00:05:43]>> Just a fisher.

[00:05:45]My mistake.

[00:05:47]I meant my name is Genio.

[00:05:51]>> You better be.

[00:05:53]Should you have other ideas, even with my last breath, I will drag you down.

[00:06:01]The people are livid. Better to revolt.

[00:06:05]As for her, likely sent by the palace.

[00:06:10]Can't let the spy go.

[00:06:15]>> You!

[00:06:17]>> Enough.

[00:06:19]Help me up.

[00:06:21]>> Take me home now.

[00:06:27]System, where is my health bar? Holding hands, hugging, kissing, once a day only.

[00:06:36]>> What are you doing?

[00:06:44]>> Protect the fish bowl to keep the fish alive.

[00:06:48]>> Walked 6 hours. It is dawn.

[00:06:51]>> Escorted the bowl safely. Luckily hugged one secretly, held hands, too.

[00:06:56]How clever.

[00:06:57]Is Mother Pei your own mother?

[00:06:59]>> Uh She served my late mother. Hidden here ever since. The safest place of all.

[00:07:06]>> Mother Pei, I brought back your illegitimate son.

[00:07:13]How could I have a son?

[00:07:16]>> Mother.

[00:07:18]Sorry to have kept you worried.

[00:07:19]>> Erlang, you were away so long. Welcome back.

[00:07:22]>> Mother, please take good care of her.

[00:07:26]>> Your highness has deeper plans.

[00:07:29]Erlang.

[00:07:31]>> Mom.

[00:07:32]What is it, Mom?

[00:07:33]>> Bella, just in time. Help Erlang inside.

[00:07:35]>> Arla, where did an Arla come from?

[00:07:45]>> Dala, hurry and fetch the doctor.

[00:07:49]I will go get the doctor.

[00:07:51]>> Oh.

[00:07:52]Huh?

[00:08:05]Little fish ball, here I come.

[00:08:12]Hug successful.

[00:08:14]Host house extended 5 hours.

[00:08:17]No one is around.

[00:08:19]Time for a quick kiss.

[00:08:23]Mom.

[00:08:25]>> Doctor Jiang is here.

[00:08:35]>> Girl, come with me.

[00:08:42]I heard from your dad you got lost in the mountains.

[00:08:46]What happened?

[00:08:47]>> My dad sold me off, but your secret son saved me.

[00:08:51]>> Man, this Zhao family is awful.

[00:08:54]Selling his own daughter like that.

[00:08:57]From now on, you shall be a Pei my daughter in this house. Poor little you.

[00:09:01]>> This way the fish stays with the ball.

[00:09:03]>> If his background is suspicious, I can find out in time.

[00:09:06]>> Great.

[00:09:08]The fish can stay in the tank.

[00:09:11]But the Zhao family needs handling.

[00:09:18]>> Zhao Qing Yu, that brat.

[00:09:20]Wasn't she sold by my dad? How is she back here? I must go tell my father.

[00:09:25]>> Right.

[00:09:26]If the Zhao family knows you are back, they will not let you go.

[00:09:30]>> Auntie Pei, I have an idea.

[00:09:38]Look, this is my contract.

[00:09:48]Will this work? Just do as I say.

[00:09:51]Zhao Di Hou surely cannot take me away.

[00:10:06]Mother Pei, I promise to be good, never spill my food, and never trip while walking.

[00:10:12]Then why not call me that?

[00:10:14]Mother.

[00:10:16]Well, keep the girl here for I can watch her closely. Besides, if she truly has a good heart, having such a daughter would be a blessing. This way I can guard my fish tank and gain a mother who loves me.

[00:10:29]>> Great. You brats, so you are hiding here to slack off.

[00:10:33]>> Zhao Di Hou.

[00:10:37]A pile of work awaits. Return home now.

[00:10:39]>> You have the nerve to ask for her.

[00:10:42]>> I am disciplining my daughter.

[00:10:45]Stay out of this.

[00:10:46]You outsider. OH, MOVE IT.

[00:10:51]>> MAGISTRATE, YOU ARE FINALLY HERE. This Mrs. Pei, she bewitched my girl. Now she stays there and refuses to leave.

[00:10:59]>> What now?

[00:11:00]>> Father, I am not staying here. You are the one who sold me here.

[00:11:05]>> Utter nonsense.

[00:11:07]>> Watch your words.

[00:11:08]>> Uncle Village, look, it is in writing.

[00:11:13]My father sold me for 100 coins to a broker to pay for my brother's bride.

[00:11:19]Then the broker sold me to Madam Pei.

[00:11:22]So now I have no ties to the Zhao family.

[00:11:27]>> Zhao Di Hou, you even sold YOUR OWN DAUGHTER.

[00:11:30]>> FATHER IS SENDING YOU TO A WEALTHY FAMILY TO ENJOY LIFE. I ONLY ask for 100 coins, but after raising you all THESE YEARS, 1 MILLION IS A LOSS. EXACTLY. IT IS TO let you enjoy life, you silly girl.

[00:11:41]>> So, that's how it is, Father.

[00:11:43]You do care for me after all.

[00:11:46]The trafficker said I could fetch a high price.

[00:11:49]He said I'm sensible, can dance and sing, and that nobles adore girls just like me.

[00:11:53]>> Really?

[00:11:54]>> Indeed.

[00:11:55]>> I must find a way to buy her back and sell her for more.

[00:11:59]>> Fine.

[00:12:00]>> I will redeem my daughter right now.

[00:12:02]>> Really?

[00:12:04]>> UH HOW ABOUT 100 >> ON THIS DEED OF SALE it says five tails of gold.

[00:12:14]Five tails?

[00:12:15]>> That is a lot.

[00:12:18]>> SO MUCH MONEY, IMPOSSIBLE, NO WAY. WHO WOULD WANT THIS? HOW DO YOU HAVE ALL THIS GOLD?

[00:12:22]>> IT IS ALL WRITTEN down in black and white. Village head, please look.

[00:12:26]>> The account is clear. Five tails of gold. Jiavi Hall, what say you?

[00:12:32]>> Dad, please redeem me. I'll be your daughter again. I'll serve you well.

[00:12:37]>> Let go.

[00:12:38]>> WHO IS YOUR DAD? STOP SHOUTING.

[00:12:40]>> DAD, DO YOU NOT WANT ME? I am your own biological daughter.

[00:12:44]>> You are not that.

[00:12:47]YOU ARE A BASTARD YOUR MOTHER FOUND BY THE SIDE OF THE ROAD.

[00:12:49]>> A STRAY.

[00:12:50]>> OH, no wonder you sold her. What is going on here? I see.

[00:12:54]No wonder you sold your original body.

[00:12:56]That is fine. I no longer have any guilt left.

[00:12:59]In that case I'll join you as a member of my Pei family. Uncle I Jong, I want to sever ties with the Jia family and change my surname to Pei.

[00:13:11]From today I Pei Jinia, have nothing to do with the Jia family.

[00:13:18]>> We'll sever it.

[00:13:20]We'll sever it.

[00:13:22]>> Let us go. Heading home.

[00:13:24]>> Oh, go now, go now.

[00:13:25]>> Let us go.

[00:13:27]Finally, I can openly stay by my you side.

[00:13:31]Pay attention.

[00:13:34]Go prepare a room for your sister.

[00:13:37]She's staying here.

[00:13:38]>> You got it.

[00:13:41]What a We just had a brother this morning and now a sister, too.

[00:13:47]Is today some kind of special day for growing the clan?

[00:13:51]>> If you can't speak well, hush.

[00:14:06]Yes, you can only hold hands once a day.

[00:14:14]Big brother, do you need to use the restroom?

[00:14:17]>> Actually, I do have to go. Sister, watch things for me. Just call me if you need me.

[00:14:27]>> Little fish, here comes home.

[00:14:31]Kiss success. Host lifespan increased by 24 hours.

[00:14:35]>> I am not sure.

[00:14:38]Goldfish, what are you doing now?

[00:14:43]>> Brother, I did nothing.

[00:14:47]Oh, no.

[00:14:48]How to explain? I must try that.

[00:14:55]7 6 5 4 3 >> Mhm.

[00:15:02]What was I about to do again?

[00:15:06]>> Glad my old skills are still sharp.

[00:15:10]Yeah.

[00:15:11]Come out with me. Mom will buy you new clothes.

[00:15:14]Great. Thank you, Mom.

[00:15:19]>> What was I doing?

[00:15:22]I remember now.

[00:15:24]>> Need the restroom.

[00:15:28]>> Anything else you want? Nothing. Thanks.

[00:15:31]Thank you.

[00:15:33]Stay in the tank with family.

[00:15:36]Next, earn points for the pill.

[00:15:46]10 seconds left.

[00:15:47]Can chopping wood kill you?

[00:15:50]>> What is wrong?

[00:15:51]Miss you.

[00:16:02]>> Are you okay? What is it?

[00:16:04]No breath left.

[00:16:07]What now? Why do they have timers, too?

[00:16:09]How did they just die?

[00:16:14]Why like this over 20 hours?

[00:16:17]What happens tomorrow? I must find a way to save them.

[00:16:20]Mother, let us go home.

[00:16:23]It is too dangerous. Hurry.

[00:16:26]>> Your highness, the mob will be here within a day.

[00:16:30]It is too risky. Please evacuate with us.

[00:16:33]>> No need.

[00:16:35]I must find a way to save these villagers.

[00:16:39]My mind IS SET.

[00:16:40]>> STEP BACK.

[00:16:41]>> YES.

[00:16:47]>> HEY.

[00:16:50]WHY IS THERE NO COUNTDOWN?

[00:16:51]What are your plans for tomorrow?

[00:16:53]>> Just like any other day.

[00:16:56]I headed up the mountain to fetch water.

[00:16:59]>> It seems your morning trip to the mountain helped you avoid disaster.

[00:17:03]>> Why would you ask that?

[00:17:04]>> Erlang, awake?

[00:17:07]Why does the fish tank have a death countdown, too?

[00:17:12]Don't break the fish's mobile tank. How can I make them believe the fish tale?

[00:17:17]I had a dream last night where everyone in Stone Valley died except for you.

[00:17:23]It was truly terrifying. And I am so shaken up.

[00:17:26]>> Perhaps that was not just a dream.

[00:17:30]But a premonition.

[00:17:32]>> The fish in the tank are in sync.

[00:17:35]But what could destroy the entire village?

[00:17:39]A sudden disaster indeed.

[00:17:41]>> A few days ago hordes of rioters swarmed our neighboring village slaughtering civilians upon entry.

[00:17:48]If they rush toward our village after the rampage then this limited time it will likely be tomorrow.

[00:17:54]>> The only way now is to have the villagers leave the village at once to escape from the mob.

[00:17:58]But if we simply report a riot now the villagers surely will not believe us.

[00:18:04]>> There is another way.

[00:18:05]Coercion and bribery.

[00:18:08]>> Right.

[00:18:09]We claim there's gold on the hill to lure them up, detain them once everyone is gathered, and make them pay up. That way all the villagers will be on the hill.

[00:18:17]>> Ah.

[00:18:18]I see. I will go find the village head.

[00:18:23]>> Then I will go pack my things, too.

[00:18:29]>> Stop right there.

[00:18:41]Tell me who are you?

[00:18:44]How do you know so much?

[00:18:45]>> I cannot say. I have a system to predict deaths.

[00:18:55]>> No weapons are hidden here.

[00:18:59]>> A perfect chance to kiss.

[00:19:09]>> What is the background of this secret agent.

[00:19:27]>> Did the Pei family really find gold?

[00:19:30]>> How else could they afford your daughter?

[00:19:33]>> Keep following them.

[00:19:43]>> How could they die in 8 seconds?

[00:19:46]>> What are you doing? Please, don't kill me. I AM BEGGING YOU.

[00:19:50]>> SECOND BROTHER, what are you doing?

[00:19:53]>> A man who sells his own daughter deserves to die.

[00:19:56]>> Uh uh wait.

[00:19:59]>> Second brother, wait. Just let them go, please.

[00:20:02]>> You not want your revenge?

[00:20:04]>> People like them last under 7 seconds in my mind.

[00:20:09]Their life means nothing.

[00:20:11]Let them live in regret.

[00:20:13]>> Living in agony is truly more painful than death.

[00:20:18]Bang.

[00:20:20]Let them live the rest of their lives in agony.

[00:20:24]>> Congratulations on saving two people.

[00:20:26]You earned two points. Total two.

[00:20:28]If Pei Xuan keeps killing and saving the fish, he can farm points infinitely.

[00:20:37]Exploiting system glitches. Be careful not to have points deducted.

[00:20:45]>> Brother, everyone who climbed the mountain with us is tied up.

[00:20:51]>> Village chief, tell the folks down the hill to bring five taels of silver per captive.

[00:20:56]If they lack cash, grain, water, or goods will suffice. Everyone must come up here or they all die.

[00:21:03]>> What if some of them refuse to pay or trade grain for lives? That is their own fate abandoning their families.

[00:21:10]They don't deserve to live.

[00:21:13]Let us go and prepare as well.

[00:21:15]Let's go.

[00:21:20]Brother, rest assured, I won't forsake you. I'll stay with you always. Congrats host. Life extended by 1 hour.

[00:21:29]I would trust a spy, really.

[00:21:32]Suit yourself.

[00:21:34]Master Pay.

[00:21:36]I have brought him to you.

[00:21:39]What exactly? You pay what?

[00:21:42]Listen to me.

[00:21:46]The gold is fake. Fake? How can it be fake? The reason we brought everyone up the mountain is for refuge.

[00:21:52]A mob in the village next to ours is rioting.

[00:21:55]And they will storm Stone Creek today to loot and burn. Riots? Won't the officials act? Ryu.

[00:22:02]Why did you trick us here?

[00:22:04]If no rioters come, can you pay?

[00:22:06]Exactly.

[00:22:07]I am telling you. They have a hidden agenda.

[00:22:10]Go ahead and tie him UP RIGHT NOW.

[00:22:11]RIGHT. TIE HIM UP. TIE HIM UP RIGHT NOW.

[00:22:16]WATCH OUT.

[00:22:23]ARE YOU OKAY?

[00:22:25]I am relieved you are fine.

[00:22:28]You okay?

[00:22:29]Guard my tank for gold pills.

[00:22:32]He risked his life.

[00:22:34]If he is a spy, why go so far? Could I have been wrong about him all along?

[00:22:40]Calm down, please.

[00:22:41]Settle down.

[00:22:43]If the mob doesn't show up today, I will forfeit my position as headman.

[00:22:47]Better safe than sorry.

[00:22:49]I cannot gamble with all your lives.

[00:22:59]Why is that?

[00:23:04]>> Why did you step in to take that hit for me?

[00:23:06]>> Because you are my brother. You are my family. Mom said, "Family must protect each other. How could I watch you get hurt?"

[00:23:15]Host a life extended 5 hours.

[00:23:18]Yuki, keep the tank safe so we can trade it for the gold pills.

[00:23:25]>> Emily.

[00:23:27]He truly treats me as king.

[00:23:30]>> Second brother, didn't push me away.

[00:23:41]>> The mob is here now.

[00:23:46]>> The mob is down below.

[00:23:48]We are saved.

[00:23:50]Yes.

[00:23:51]Really?

[00:23:52]>> Indeed. We saved them all.

[00:23:55]We rescued 128.

[00:24:00]Didn't they flee?

[00:24:04]Why the countdown?

[00:24:10]>> Spare me, kind sir.

[00:24:12]I will follow you.

[00:24:14]SECOND BROTHER.

[00:24:17]>> VILLAGERS GONE. MONEY AND FOOD VANISHED.

[00:24:19]>> Kind sir, >> I know exactly where the villagers went now.

[00:24:23]>> Second brother, second brother.

[00:24:25]>> What is it?

[00:24:26]>> Our taxes are found.

[00:24:28]The mob is up >> What's going on here?

[00:24:33]>> It is Shell. He brought mobs up the hill.

[00:24:35]>> Everyone find cover. Stay hidden and keep quiet and make no sound.

[00:24:39]>> Madam Liu, is your husband TRYING TO GET US ALL KILLED?

[00:24:41]>> NOTHING TO DO WITH ME.

[00:24:43]I have no idea at all.

[00:24:44]>> This is no time to argue. We have been fleeing so long.

[00:24:49]Now it is time to fight back.

[00:24:55]>> Fighting. Fight Fight back.

[00:25:00]>> You begged for them.

[00:25:02]Why so eager to kill?

[00:25:04]>> The mobs kill. Stopping them saves lives.

[00:25:08]The villain is dead. Patron is safe. And the fish will live for a long, long time.

[00:25:20]Hoc success.

[00:25:21]Host lifespan extended by 5 hours.

[00:25:24]Great. One step closer to the elixir?

[00:25:27]>> Looks like company. You should stand up now.

[00:25:34]>> Brother, many fugitives are women.

[00:25:37]Especially that pay girl. She has a stunning face. Who catches that girl? My second brother offers reward. All right.

[00:25:44]>> I must see exactly how they all die.

[00:25:51]>> Follow me.

[00:25:56]>> Brother, this is too dangerous.

[00:25:59]>> Fear not.

[00:26:01]Don't they want to take my life? Let them come. Take it themselves.

[00:26:05]>> Surrendering to me. Seize him.

[00:26:18]>> You set the trap luring them in on purpose.

[00:26:25]>> The stones sat for 3 days waiting for them.

[00:26:30]>> Host saved 169.

[00:26:33]Coins total 290.

[00:26:42]>> What are you doing?

[00:26:44]>> Kick them while down.

[00:26:46]The mob died out overnight. So we are finally safe.

[00:26:52]Where is my dear husband?

[00:26:56]>> Mom, don't fear. I am here to protect you.

[00:27:01]>> So, can we return to Rock Valley now?

[00:27:04]I scouted the mountain earlier.

[00:27:06]The mop.

[00:27:08]No. The rebels have seized Qingyang and are slaughtering folks.

[00:27:12]>> REBELS.

[00:27:14]>> BROTHER!

[00:27:15]>> WHAT should we do next?

[00:27:16]The emperor is cruel.

[00:27:19]The court is weak. The north is in chaos.

[00:27:22]Provinces are struggling.

[00:27:24]So, if we return now, it is certain death.

[00:27:27]>> What are we to do then?

[00:27:29]Since we cannot return, we will stay put.

[00:27:32]>> Stay there. Where are we going?

[00:27:34]>> Listen.

[00:27:35]Nowhere is safe.

[00:27:38]So, surviving is the only way for us to find our home.

[00:27:41]Since we cannot go back, we must unite to carve a path to survival.

[00:27:47]>> Where do we go from here?

[00:27:49]>> How about we head to Chizhou?

[00:27:51]>> Chizhou?

[00:27:52]>> Huh?

[00:27:53]That is King Qiang Xiao's land.

[00:27:54]Relatively peaceful there.

[00:27:57]>> It fits my plan.

[00:27:59]As he shares kin with my mother.

[00:28:02]And their help is vital. Seize the capital. End tyranny.

[00:28:09]>> Look there.

[00:28:10]The village is just ahead.

[00:28:12]>> Huh?

[00:28:13]Why are THERE SO MANY CORPSES HERE?

[00:28:17]ARE THERE REBELS NEARBY? WHAT IS GOING ON?

[00:28:20]>> THAT IS SO DANGEROUS.

[00:28:26]>> It seems they have been dead for a long time. I believe the rebels have already left this place.

[00:28:31]>> Are we staying here tonight?

[00:28:33]>> Yes, we must. If we do not, we will be dead by dawn.

[00:28:37]>> Since that is settled, everyone go find a place to stay.

[00:28:41]>> THAT IS ONE WAY TO HANDLE IT.

[00:28:47]>> IS THIS SAFE?

[00:28:49]Keep an eye on Fish.

[00:28:52]>> Rest easy.

[00:28:53]I checked the area.

[00:28:55]It is safe.

[00:28:56]We can settle down here for now.

[00:28:58]>> Let us go in and clean up.

[00:29:02]What?

[00:29:03]>> What is wrong?

[00:29:04]>> Nothing. Got scratched by something.

[00:29:25]>> Your ankle has been cut open.

[00:29:28]>> Stay still now.

[00:29:33]>> It is steep.

[00:29:34]Let me carry.

[00:29:35]>> I am fine.

[00:29:37]Look, I can walk.

[00:29:44]Doing what, bro?

[00:29:46]>> If I do not hold you, what if you fall down again?

[00:29:50]>> I feel so safe held in your arms.

[00:29:55]Oh.

[00:29:56]Brother, why are you blushing now?

[00:29:59]>> Just stay still.

[00:30:00]Oh.

[00:30:04]>> Intimacy act completed. Host life extended by 24 hours. Seriously, that counts as close. Brother, can you please slow down a little bit? You are driving way too fast for me.

[00:30:15]>> Does it hurt?

[00:30:17]>> No.

[00:30:18]I just want to live a little longer.

[00:30:20]>> What do you mean?

[00:30:21]>> Thanks, brother. You are so kind.

[00:30:26]Nice work on this.

[00:30:28]It looks really neat. I like it.

[00:30:31]Detected waifu fantasy phase. Shall we initiate the romance plot branch? What a devoted wife. I am just praising second brother's bandaging skill. Right.

[00:30:42]A dutiful husband. What a mess.

[00:30:46]Good fish don't fight the system.

[00:30:48]Let's talk business.

[00:30:50]Everyone's food supplies are running low. We must find a way to feed them.

[00:30:56]I have a plan.

[00:31:07]System, system, I need to shop.

[00:31:19]Glad I have points.

[00:31:21]So no one goes hungry.

[00:31:40]I have a little bit each day.

[00:31:43]No one will note it.

[00:31:51]>> That old fish girl is acting sneaky.

[00:31:54]She must be hiding snacks.

[00:32:16]>> Uncle John.

[00:32:18]Why are you sticking your butt out?

[00:32:20]>> You brat.

[00:32:23]Why are you shouting so loud?

[00:32:26]>> I got it.

[00:32:28]You want to steal MY RICE.

[00:32:30]>> YOU BRAT, DARE TO TALK NONSENSE AGAIN AND I WILL rip your lips.

[00:32:33]>> Wait a second.

[00:32:35]What are you laughing at?

[00:32:39]>> Y'all wants to steal my rice and eat me.

[00:32:43]>> You brat, do not THINK FOR A SECOND I DID NOT HIT YOU. GET LOST.

[00:32:54]>> PUT THAT.

[00:32:56]>> HE NOW BELONGS TO THE PEI FAMILY NOW.

[00:32:57]How dare you touch him?

[00:32:58]>> How dare you LAY A FINGER ON MY FATHER?

[00:33:03]>> ARE YOU OKAY?

[00:33:04]>> IF you dare touch her again, I will beat your son, too.

[00:33:08]>> I will not stoop to your level. Let us go.

[00:33:10]>> Wait.

[00:33:12]Put back the rice you stole.

[00:33:13]>> I did not STEAL IT. IT IS MINE.

[00:33:18]>> YOU TOOK NOTHING?

[00:33:19]>> THIS is my own rice.

[00:33:21]Why do you claim I stole IT FROM YOU?

[00:33:23]>> WHY ARE you still stealing rice?

[00:33:25]>> Yeah, what a total jerk.

[00:33:28]>> I am truly wrong.

[00:33:32]My rice LOOKS IDENTICAL. WHO SAYS IT IS PEI RICE? IT IS MY OWN RICE.

[00:33:36]THE PEIS ROBBED ME AND ARE FRAMING ME.

[00:33:40]IF I DO NOT GET JUSTICE TODAY, I I I CANNOT GO ON. I CANNOT GO ON LIVING.

[00:33:47]>> If I prove this is my family's rice, you bow to everyone in Stone Valley.

[00:33:51]Admit you stole it. You are a fraud. Do you dare?

[00:33:55]>> Even if it is white rice inside, I can claim I bought it.

[00:33:59]What can you do? Who says I dare not? I dare.

[00:34:02]But you shamed my father in public.

[00:34:05]If we were truly wronged, we will never let this go.

[00:34:08]>> What do you want?

[00:34:08]>> We do not want much. Just pay us in 100 lb of rice.

[00:34:12]>> 100 lb? Are you not trying to take the lives of the Pei family?

[00:34:15]Fine.

[00:34:17]The Pei family agrees to it.

[00:34:19]>> Girl, I believe in you.

[00:34:29]Take a look.

[00:34:32]>> Is this not just common How can you prove it is your?

[00:34:35]>> Just take a sniff.

[00:34:42]>> WHY DOES THIS RICE TASTE ODD?

[00:34:44]>> WAIT.

[00:34:46]It smells incredibly fragrant. It has a scent of osmanthus.

[00:34:51]>> Mom and I met a merchant in town.

[00:34:54]I bought 10 lb of this rice.

[00:34:58]It is unique and only we have it.

[00:35:00]>> Girl, I don't recall buying this rice.

[00:35:04]>> You were so busy.

[00:35:07]You forgot.

[00:35:08]Come on.

[00:35:10]Smell how fragrant it is.

[00:35:13]>> Smells quite good.

[00:35:14]The Pei Ya family saved us all. How could you be so shameless?

[00:35:19]>> Right.

[00:35:20]Stealing things and shifting blame.

[00:35:22]Framing the Pei family.

[00:35:23]>> Trying to scam us for 100 lb of rice.

[00:35:27]Zhao Di Hao, your virtue is not thick at all. Honestly, Speak up.

[00:35:36]Will you kneel or lose your head?

[00:35:39]>> Dear elders, I am truly sorry that I stole the rice.

[00:35:44]I DEEPLY APOLOGIZE to you all and I counter to you in regret.

[00:35:49]>> In that case, >> get lost now.

[00:35:54]>> How shameful, how heartless.

[00:35:56]>> Brother, you are amazing.

[00:35:59]Scent of cinnamon pairing.

[00:36:01]Lifespan of an hour.

[00:36:04]Goldfish.

[00:36:05]Go tidy up the bed.

[00:36:07]I must talk. Okay.

[00:36:12]Your highness, may we step aside?

[00:36:16]>> Fine.

[00:36:21]Speak.

[00:36:23]>> Your highness, when you arrived at Stone Valley, you were gravely wounded.

[00:36:27]Later, through that girl, you You led the villagers into the Chik Sao King's territory.

[00:36:32]What was your intent, and how were you injured?

[00:36:34]>> Nurse, Jang, the Southern Chu Crown Prince is dead. Call me by my name now.

[00:36:39]>> What?

[00:36:42]>> On the day of his coming-of-age ceremony, Crown Prince Xiao Shen of South Chu attempted a coup, but Prince Qi detected the plot and stopped it, causing the emperor to fly into a rage, strip the prince of his title, demote him to a commoner, and cast him into prison.

[00:36:55]>> But you were the Crown Prince.

[00:36:58]Why would you rebel? What are your plans now?

[00:37:01]>> The land is in turmoil, and people suffer.

[00:37:04]Our enemies wait for a chance.

[00:37:07]I cannot just stand by.

[00:37:09]If I ask you to build a secret base in Chek Sao and train an army, >> You saved my life and taught me martial arts.

[00:37:19]I swore to you long ago that I would serve you with my life forever.

[00:37:24]From what?

[00:37:25]I'll deliver.

[00:37:27]>> Good.

[00:37:29]I will return to the capital for the sake of the people and to seek justice for my mother.

[00:37:37]However, >> you may not know your true identity.

[00:37:41]Want it?

[00:37:43]>> There is no need for you to keep it hidden. Though this world is fraught with peril, the boy is sharp. Rather than leaving him blind to the truth and risking his safety later on, it would be far better to let him know everything right now.

[00:37:53]>> Yes.

[00:37:54]>> But you need not rush to confess.

[00:37:57]>> I never knew that you trusted you to such a degree.

[00:38:03]>> Her mind is pure. Her spirit wild.

[00:38:07]For some reason, I feel safe by her side.

[00:38:18]>> I am bored. Let me out.

[00:38:22]I've stayed in for days.

[00:38:30]I feel like I am fully healed now.

[00:38:32]Oh.

[00:38:34]I advise against intense activity. I am fine.

[00:38:38]If I call him brother, he won't take me out. I'll call him big brother instead.

[00:38:42]Brother, come here.

[00:38:46]Sister, what? Hey, take me out to play.

[00:38:50]Your foot is not healed.

[00:38:53]Why go out? How about this? I'll get you some fruit. No, I want out. I want sun, wind, freedom, and the river. Sister, why are you not resting well?

[00:39:03]I am tired of staying in this dull room.

[00:39:07]But I promised to mom and brother.

[00:39:09]You must recover.

[00:39:11]If you worry, just carry me on your back.

[00:39:16]I won't walk.

[00:39:18]Okay. Huh?

[00:39:19]That is a good plan. Then come on up here.

[00:39:24]Brother, what is that smell on you? I was chopping wood.

[00:39:29]So I must smell a bit.

[00:39:32]Humans should stay fresh or kissing feels like chewing on roots from a crack in the ground. Kissing who? It is not you. Never mind. Oh.

[00:39:44]Let us go. Carry me to the river. Are you really using me like a donkey?

[00:39:48]Oh, just go.

[00:39:56]Hold it right Bro too.

[00:40:02]What are you doing here?

[00:40:05]I am taking her to the river.

[00:40:09]Down. No, I begged him for so long. He finally agreed to take me. You got come down.

[00:40:16]It is fine, brother. Carrying me is the same. Rest a bit.

[00:40:19]>> You used to cling to me.

[00:40:21]Holding hands or kissing.

[00:40:24]Why avoid me?

[00:40:25]>> My brother's cold gaze feels so chilly to me right now.

[00:40:29]>> Let big brother carry you.

[00:40:31]>> Really?

[00:40:32]>> Little sister, why not let your second brother carry you?

[00:40:35]>> Is it not the same who carries you? Oh, dear.

[00:40:38]Brother, you do not want to carry me anymore.

[00:40:41]>> No, it is not.

[00:40:43]My brother stares at me as if he wants to kill me.

[00:40:47]>> Is she upset because I pushed her away?

[00:40:52]Why did you stop me from carrying her?

[00:40:54]>> Is there any difference between you two carrying me?

[00:40:57]>> Are holding your hands not the same thing to you?

[00:41:00]>> That is certainly different. You are able to add health points to me.

[00:41:06]>> Brother, did you not say you had important tasks to do?

[00:41:11]Right, right.

[00:41:13]I have things to do.

[00:41:16]Leave my little sister to you.

[00:41:22]>> Let's go.

[00:41:23]>> To the brother.

[00:41:26]Brother, where to the river is there?

[00:41:29]>> Your uncle is hurt.

[00:41:32]Stay out of water.

[00:41:39]>> That is unfair, bro.

[00:41:42]>> To treat your own little pet fish with such a lack of kindness.

[00:41:49]>> I used to reach out to kiss and hug him, but got pushed away so often. Yet now he holds me close.

[00:41:56]And it is finally time to win him over.

[00:41:59]That is precisely 8,760 hours of my life.

[00:42:07]Second brother, will you sleep with me?

[00:42:14]Tell me, are you willing or not?

[00:42:17]>> This is not about being willing.

[00:42:19]Besides, we are siblings, and we are both unmarried now.

[00:42:24]>> We are not blood related.

[00:42:27]If marriage is the issue, let us just marry now.

[00:42:33]>> Silly girl.

[00:42:35]Marriage is not a simple game at all. It truly requires deep mutual love and sincere affection from both.

[00:42:43]>> I love you, second brother. I love you most.

[00:42:47]>> Do you truly love our eldest brother so much?

[00:42:50]>> Sure, I love him.

[00:42:54]>> Forget it.

[00:42:55]Perhaps you are too young to understand what true love is yet.

[00:43:01]>> What?

[00:43:03]What?

[00:43:05]>> Once we reach town, second brother will take you to eat something good.

[00:43:08]>> Really?

[00:43:10]>> Hm.

[00:43:11]>> Hey.

[00:43:13]>> She trusts and clings to me so.

[00:43:17]Acting bold, yet her heart is pure as snow.

[00:43:21]Is her love just a child's relying or romantic affection?

[00:43:29]>> Present your permits.

[00:43:31]Only those with the lord's seal may enter.

[00:43:34]>> Relax. My sister and brother's papers are here.

[00:43:39]Why are the palace guards have the rebels reached the city?

[00:43:49]>> Brother, you are in danger.

[00:43:52]>> What?

[00:43:53]Those soldiers know me.

[00:43:55]I must avoid being spotted.

[00:43:58]>> I see.

[00:43:59]>> Won't you ask me why, sis?

[00:44:01]>> Why are you my brother?

[00:44:02]Dude.

[00:44:03]>> She trusts me without reservation.

[00:44:08]>> Got it.

[00:44:18]>> Brother.

[00:44:20]You're shy of both man and a woman.

[00:44:23]>> Stop teasing me.

[00:44:26]Or I will really climb the wall now.

[00:44:27]>> No. No. No.

[00:44:30]Like this.

[00:44:45]You look great.

[00:44:47]Take this.

[00:44:49]This feign illness.

[00:44:51]Leave the rest to me.

[00:44:53]Let's go.

[00:44:56]Mother. Brother.

[00:45:02]My brother is unwell.

[00:45:04]Let him rest in the carriage.

[00:45:08]My dear girl, get into the carriage quickly.

[00:45:12]By your Only that your girl could ever fluster your highness.

[00:45:18]Go on. Quickly.

[00:45:20]Watch out.

[00:45:24]>> Halt. Show your permits.

[00:45:28]Hm?

[00:45:33]Who is this?

[00:45:35]Why is she covering her face?

[00:45:37]>> This is my daughter.

[00:45:41]She has been ill and has a rash.

[00:45:45]Ah.

[00:45:46]Oh, my poor lady.

[00:45:48]Ah, this truly so hard.

[00:45:50]>> What is all this? Just the noise.

[00:45:53]Take down that fan.

[00:45:55]>> Brother, don't be rash.

[00:45:57]>> Watching the fish.

[00:46:00]>> Hey girl.

[00:46:02]What to you lately?

[00:46:05]>> My sister probably passed this illness to me.

[00:46:08]What bad luck.

[00:46:10]Get out of here.

[00:46:13]>> Second brother.

[00:46:16]Hug success. Life extended 2 hours.

[00:46:24]>> Where are mom and eldest brother?

[00:46:26]>> They went shopping.

[00:46:27]Meeting at sunset to walk home.

[00:46:29]>> Oh.

[00:46:32]Thanks for today.

[00:46:34]>> Brother.

[00:46:36]Talk is cheap.

[00:46:37]I want food.

[00:46:39]>> As you wish.

[00:46:41]But we really must be going now.

[00:46:43]>> Where to?

[00:46:47]My brother keeps that pendant close, yet sold it for my roast chicken.

[00:46:57]Brother.

[00:46:59]That is your family heirloom.

[00:47:01]Please keep it.

[00:47:03]I can go without the chicken for now.

[00:47:05]>> No worries.

[00:47:06]Just a trinket, hm?

[00:47:13]>> Brother wants you to have it.

[00:47:17]>> Jinyu.

[00:47:18]You too.

[00:47:25]>> So delicious.

[00:47:27]Who on earth invented this thing?

[00:47:29]>> Mother died unjustly. Father weary.

[00:47:33]Life is filled with hypocrites.

[00:47:37]She alone is pure.

[00:47:39]True to me.

[00:47:41]I should not hide things from her.

[00:47:44]Jinyu.

[00:47:45]>> Hm?

[00:47:46]>> Brother has something to tell you.

[00:47:49]>> Hm.

[00:47:50]>> Brother is not with pay.

[00:47:53]>> Gather around to hear the secret of Xiao Xuan.

[00:47:57]Ao Dan Xuan Er.

[00:48:01]>> Good, so good.

[00:48:03]This is the story big brother mentioned.

[00:48:06]My first time hearing it.

[00:48:07]>> The heir Xiao Xuan was a noble soul.

[00:48:10]The rightful crown prince.

[00:48:13]Yet on his grand ceremony, guess what happened?

[00:48:17]It was a disaster that changed everything forever.

[00:48:22]Suddenly chilly winds began to howl.

[00:48:26]The crown prince's elite troops surrounded the imperial palace with short blade sealing it tight.

[00:48:35]They had rebelled.

[00:48:36]It turned out someone sensed the plot.

[00:48:38]The furious emperor stripped the prince of his title on the spot.

[00:48:45]Poor prince, once dressed in fine silk now a disheveled prisoner suffering endless tortures daily.

[00:48:57]>> Brother.

[00:49:00]>> Ji Nuan.

[00:49:02]What do you think of this deposed crown prince?

[00:49:04]>> What has he to do with me? You are hurt.

[00:49:07]Let us go tend to your wounds now.

[00:49:10]>> Answer me first.

[00:49:12]>> I have no idea. If I must say, he seems crazy to me. Being the prince already, why rebel? Isn't that just seeking trouble?

[00:49:20]>> But what if he appeared right before you now?

[00:49:25]How would you react?

[00:49:27]>> They have nothing to do with me. Let me check your injuries.

[00:49:33]>> The prince.

[00:49:35]He fled from this place and just vanished.

[00:49:39]If he were hiding among these people >> I shall leave now.

[00:49:46]Associating with him is dangerous.

[00:49:48]>> But he would never harm you.

[00:49:50]>> That is none of my business.

[00:49:54]You must treat your wound.

[00:49:57]>> True.

[00:49:58]To her, I am a threat.

[00:50:02]I cannot let Jing Liu know.

[00:50:06]I can never lose her.

[00:50:19]>> Leave the city. Notify the prince. Send more men.

[00:50:22]>> Yes.

[00:50:27]The prince lives.

[00:50:30]So, I will capture him soon to earn a promotion.

[00:50:41]>> Second brother, are you all right?

[00:50:45]>> I'm fine.

[00:50:48]Just a little pain in my hand.

[00:50:50]>> Let me fix it.

[00:51:03]>> Jing Liu.

[00:51:05]>> What is it?

[00:51:06]>> You promised me that you would never leave me.

[00:51:10]>> Right.

[00:51:13]I told my brother I would never leave him.

[00:51:21]You're successful.

[00:51:22]Host health points plus 24 hours.

[00:51:25]>> Jing Liu.

[00:51:28]Do you realize the implications of your actions just now?

[00:51:31]>> What?

[00:51:33]It means my health increased 24 hours.

[00:51:36]Right?

[00:51:37]>> You are a lady.

[00:51:41]You cannot kiss men so casual.

[00:51:43]>> But you are my brother, not someone else.

[00:51:46]Why kiss another guy?

[00:51:49]It won't even increase your health points.

[00:51:51]>> But remember, you must not act so freely hereafter.

[00:51:58]>> I will only kiss brother from now on. No one else.

[00:52:01]>> I truly wish he stays as innocent as a little fish forever.

[00:52:06]>> I will redeem his jade pendant. He will be so happy. Brother, I am going out.

[00:52:12]>> But where are you going?

[00:52:18]>> Listen, I want to trade points for silver to get his jade. Gold and silver are fixed at 300 points. You have 220. I need credit. Small business. Get out.

[00:52:28]Get out.

[00:52:30]If he loses the pendant, he will be sad, then fall ill, then die, then I die, and you'll be out of a job. Just this once.

[00:52:48]Host, what is with the candied horse?

[00:52:51]>> Sweets make people happy.

[00:52:53]And doesn't this look like giant fish food?

[00:52:56]You better be right.

[00:52:59]>> I want to buy back the jade I pawned.

[00:53:01]>> Oh.

[00:53:02]Too bad.

[00:53:03]It was bought by a soldier earlier today.

[00:53:05]>> What kind of soldier?

[00:53:07]>> Uh yes, it is that soldier right there.

[00:53:10]>> It is that soldier. I want to redeem that pendant. I will pay triple the price.

[00:53:16]>> Do you recognize this jade pendant?

[00:53:20]>> Aren't you supposed to be a guard?

[00:53:22]I do not know you.

[00:53:24]>> Trying to leave? UM WITH ME.

[00:53:31]>> WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

[00:53:33]>> WHY IS THE CROWN prince's item here?

[00:53:35]WHERE IS HE NOW?

[00:53:37]>> I DON'T KNOW ANY CROWN PRINCE at all.

[00:53:39]>> Little girl, don't play games.

[00:53:42]Take me.

[00:53:42]>> Elf.

[00:53:44]>> Or what?

[00:53:49]>> Brother.

[00:53:51]>> You are still alive.

[00:53:54]Those guards know me.

[00:53:56]I cannot let them spot me.

[00:53:58]>> Well, Ry, I will keep him under control for you.

[00:54:02]>> Be still.

[00:54:04]I'll snap her neck.

[00:54:05]>> If you dare kill her, I swear you won't last half a tea break.

[00:54:09]Stay put or I will kill you.

[00:54:11]>> Hold on. Let me take a look.

[00:54:17]Nothing has changed.

[00:54:20]That means the fish is fine. Oh, you are done for. Stay calm, brother. He is a dead man.

[00:54:26]>> What?

[00:54:27]>> Be calm, brother. He is a dead man.

[00:54:34]Do it now.

[00:54:41]>> Are you hurt?

[00:54:42]>> Brother, I am fine. I inhaled the drug, too.

[00:54:48]>> So, she did this to buy back my pendant.

[00:55:07]>> Brother, you have been guarding me.

[00:55:12]>> How is it?

[00:55:14]Feeling better.

[00:55:18]>> Brother, you are the best-looking man I know.

[00:55:23]>> She heard my talk with the guard.

[00:55:25]If she finds out I am the deposed prince, will she be afraid?

[00:55:33]Actually, I >> Brother, >> It is the 15th. Oh, no.

[00:55:43]>> Brother.

[00:55:44]What is wrong with you?

[00:55:57]>> She showed mercy once, yet became trapped by a wretch like me.

[00:56:02]No regrets now, but one day she will.

[00:56:05]>> Brother.

[00:56:06]>> Stay away from me.

[00:56:10]>> Brother.

[00:56:11]>> I am a dangerous soul.

[00:56:14]Unable to control my own body.

[00:56:16]Keeping distance is surely the best protection for us.

[00:56:25]To have the emperor take action himself.

[00:56:28]What an honor.

[00:56:30]>> The heart-eating bug strikes at the full moon.

[00:56:34]In a month you shall perish.

[00:56:37]With this creature's company you will not be lonely on the road to hell.

[00:56:52]>> 719 hours make one month. Brother will die in a month.

[00:57:00]>> What is happening here?

[00:57:07]>> Aren't you afraid of me?

[00:57:11]>> I am more afraid for you.

[00:57:15]>> You treat me this way. How could I let them go?

[00:57:19]>> Brother, what do you mean by that?

[00:57:21]Family never just walks away from each other. If you are in deep pain, please tell me. We must be truly honest with each other, for that is how we survive.

[00:57:29]>> Honest with each other. That if he learns the truth will he still stay?

[00:57:40]There is a parasite here.

[00:57:43]It flares up during every full moon, like ants biting my heart, agony.

[00:57:48]>> That is why brother has 1 month left.

[00:57:55]>> Yeah.

[00:57:56]One more thing, there is no pay.

[00:57:59]Second son, my real name is Shao Zhaohua.

[00:58:07]>> The human army defected and stripped the prince of his title on the spot.

[00:58:12]Poor prince, once a noble dressed in fine silk, now a disheveled prisoner suffering through the pain of daily torture all alone.

[00:58:25]>> Brother, you are surely that deposed prince.

[00:58:30]>> My father feared treason.

[00:58:33]So, on my coming of age day, he had me deposed, leaving me all alone.

[00:58:40]Poison in me was planted by his own hands, too.

[00:58:44]You, I am not one to kill.

[00:58:48]No, yet others die because of me.

[00:58:53]>> I fear not.

[00:58:56]Be you prince or commoner, it is always you I recognize. If one day I betray you because of your status, then turn me into a goldfish chased by every stray cat in Nanzhao.

[00:59:10]>> It will not happen.

[00:59:13]I will never let that day come.

[00:59:19]You, thank you for letting me win this bet.

[00:59:28]>> How can I help my brother break the heart-eating gourd?

[00:59:33]Host, you resolved his inner conflict.

[00:59:35]Earn 200 points. Total 300.

[00:59:40]System, I want the cure for the GU.

[00:59:43]Deduct 100 points.

[00:59:46]Got it.

[00:59:47]The thousand-fold lotus is in Canyon City.

[00:59:52]System, I asked for the cure.

[00:59:55]Why give me clues? Sorry.

[00:59:57]The lotus is a sentient herb.

[00:59:59]I have not upgraded yet. I cannot conjure it.

[01:00:03]Fine.

[01:00:04]I must tell my brother quickly.

[01:00:07]Heart-eating Q.

[01:00:10]Even tigers spare cubs. How can the emperor be so cruel?

[01:00:15]>> So, we do not have much time left.

[01:00:18]We must reach Chickshaw City soon, so that you all can leave safely.

[01:00:22]>> Your highness, even if I die, I will find the way to break this key.

[01:00:27]>> Mother, rest easy. I already know where the antidote is.

[01:00:35]>> Here is Canyon City.

[01:00:37]>> Sweetie, does this city have the lotus to cure him, yes?

[01:00:42]>> Mother, trust me.

[01:00:45]>> But that lotus is a rare herb.

[01:00:49]Kept by those in power, hard to get.

[01:00:53]>> How can we find that lotus?

[01:01:07]Is something wrong here?

[01:01:09]>> What is it?

[01:01:10]>> The people here are dying.

[01:01:13]>> Such a vast scale of death. Is it a natural disaster?

[01:01:16]Sir, your water skin, I have filled it for you.

[01:01:22]>> What are you doing?

[01:01:26]Are you insane?

[01:01:28]>> You.

[01:01:31]>> The water is tainted.

[01:01:32]>> The water is off?

[01:01:34]>> Brother.

[01:01:36]Can we lead everyone to safety like we did for the stone village?

[01:01:39]>> I fear not. The city is too vast.

[01:01:42]There is simply no time for that.

[01:01:44]>> Perhaps we can find some help.

[01:01:54]Who strikes the drums while passing through this secluded path? Calculated the thousands here. Disaster looms over this place.

[01:02:02]>> Playing a phony clever.

[01:02:04]Little you.

[01:02:05]Stop spreading lies. Guards, seize them.

[01:02:11]>> Sir.

[01:02:13]Look at his dark brow.

[01:02:15]An evil aura gathers there.

[01:02:18]And in 10 counts, blood will flow.

[01:02:21]>> Nonsense.

[01:02:22]He is my best martial artist. How could he face disaster?

[01:02:26]>> Five.

[01:02:28]Four. Three. Two.

[01:02:30]One go.

[01:02:31]>> 10 counts at most. I shall see how this girl explains herself now.

[01:02:45]>> He stopped breathing.

[01:02:47]He is dead.

[01:02:49]It is the parasite. This pest.

[01:02:51]Once it enters the body, it instantly hollows out the host.

[01:02:56]If it is an egg, and they get into the city water, someone there >> Seal all wells now.

[01:03:04]Check the source.

[01:03:05]Lock the gates.

[01:03:07]Let no one leave.

[01:03:08]>> Yes, sir.

[01:03:11]>> Please.

[01:03:13]Save our people.

[01:03:15]And I will offer the thousand pedal lotus to you.

[01:03:19]>> For real?

[01:03:20]>> Mhm.

[01:03:20]>> Mhm.

[01:03:22]My brother is saved.

[01:03:26]>> Can you find a cure for this problem?

[01:03:29]>> It is easily done.

[01:03:33]System, I need the cure for the water parasite.

[01:03:37]Deduct 100 points.

[01:03:39]Your account balance is currently zero.

[01:03:42]Truly serving the public.

[01:03:45]Wait.

[01:03:46]Are you really sure this is it?

[01:03:48]>> Yes, it is totally genuine.

[01:03:53]To break the curse, the victim must Oh, I truly cannot bring myself to say it.

[01:04:02]>> Stop laughing. Tell me now.

[01:04:04]>> Mhm.

[01:04:06]Drink diluted filth to purge.

[01:04:09]Then gulp Realgar wine to end the curse.

[01:04:12]>> Fewer.

[01:04:13]Quick.

[01:04:14]Purge to the filth at once.

[01:04:18]Holy Maiden, please dine with us.

[01:04:20]>> I do not partake in wine.

[01:04:22]>> Sir.

[01:04:24]All who drank water tonight have taken the remedy. They are recovering well.

[01:04:30]>> Good.

[01:04:33]Host, you saved 15,825 souls.

[01:04:38]Achievement unlocked.

[01:04:40]>> Holy Maiden, you saved our people. I shall repay this debt.

[01:04:45]Take my city's treasure, thousandfold lotus.

[01:04:54]>> Huh?

[01:04:55]How can this be?

[01:04:57]>> What happened?

[01:04:59]>> System, check the cause of death.

[01:05:02]The cause?

[01:05:04]The Jiang Qing poisoned the people.

[01:05:06]Insects controlled them via flute, turning them into puppets to attack others.

[01:05:12]Then they laid siege.

[01:05:15]So, they planted those insects.

[01:05:18]>> Fairy, please say something.

[01:05:20]>> Tomorrow, the Chung will return using flutes to activate new insects making the city folks slaughter one another.

[01:05:30]>> I beg you, dear fairy, please save our city.

[01:05:36]>> Second brother, >> alert the city.

[01:05:41]Impose martial law.

[01:05:43]Tell people to block their ears with cotton.

[01:05:47]As for the Chung, we strike the leader first.

[01:05:50]Then, I rely on you both.

[01:06:01]>> Come here.

[01:06:05]Guards increased.

[01:06:07]Starting from here.

[01:06:11]>> Put this on.

[01:06:12]We'll be invisible.

[01:06:14]>> What is this?

[01:06:16]Where did you pull this from?

[01:06:18]>> I saved up all my I just found this cool treasure at the local pawn shop.

[01:06:29]>> Really?

[01:06:31]>> It is.

[01:06:32]Put it on.

[01:06:35]Or the Chung King will be gone.

[01:06:39]>> My lord, all is ready.

[01:06:43]Tomorrow, Canyon City falls.

[01:06:48]Success hinges on this.

[01:06:51]Guard well tonight.

[01:06:53]12 patrols.

[01:06:55]Those Canyon weaklings will never break through.

[01:07:06]>> Xiao Yue, I will surely rescue you, sister.

[01:07:12]Stay still or you will die.

[01:07:14]>> Stay still to live.

[01:07:20]>> Lead your troops to surround Cang Yun City tomorrow.

[01:07:25]>> Priest, the king has called off the siege.

[01:07:28]What news for us?

[01:07:33]>> My lord, the attack must go on.

[01:07:36]Nan Chu covets our iron and has stolen our scientist.

[01:07:40]Must we continue to endure this? If she dies, does the priest truly not care at all about her fate?

[01:07:48]>> The scientist can foresee our future.

[01:07:51]She is our tribe's only hope.

[01:07:54]And I want her safe, but it is set.

[01:07:58]>> We must consider how to rescue Xiao Yue carefully.

[01:08:02]You are dismissed.

[01:08:09]>> Congrats for saving 22,679 lives. Points 28,304.

[01:08:16]Major rescue milestone.

[01:08:19]Space system unlocked. Stores all.

[01:08:21]Consumes gold. Expands domain.

[01:08:24]Space, what a fantastic find.

[01:08:27]>> I have done as you requested. What else do you want?

[01:08:32]>> Huh?

[01:08:35]Huh?

[01:08:38]The junking will die.

[01:08:41]System Show the cause of the king's death.

[01:08:48]>> It was you who took your Why did you do it?

[01:08:54]>> All thanks to the trick the Southern Chu prince taught me.

[01:09:00]>> FROM NOW ON, I SHALL BE THE NEW KING OF THE CHUNG.

[01:09:07]>> BROTHER, the Chung King will die by that man's hand.

[01:09:10]>> Do you mean that priest from just now? Stirring up trouble.

[01:09:16]I am not that foolish.

[01:09:18]>> Did she wear a red robe with a mark on her brow?

[01:09:21]I tell you, that man took her deep into the dark woods.

[01:09:25]You must follow us right now and see it for yourself, my friend.

[01:09:28]>> That is indeed how he addresses.

[01:09:31]If you are lying to me, I will slaughter Kang Yun City with my entire clan.

[01:09:40]>> Over there.

[01:09:43]>> Xiao Yue.

[01:09:45]>> Over there.

[01:09:46]>> Xiao Yue.

[01:09:51]>> Brother.

[01:09:56]>> So, you canceled the siege to hide the Saintess.

[01:10:00]You kept her hidden because you are weak.

[01:10:03]A coward unfit to rule the Chung tribe.

[01:10:08]I am the one meant to lead THE CHUNG TO CONQUER ALL.

[01:10:12]>> He's summoning insects. Stop him now.

[01:10:15]Take the Saintess and leave.

[01:10:17]Go quick.

[01:10:22]>> Congrats, host. Crisis averted. Current score 36,877.

[01:10:28]Countdown doubled.

[01:10:29]>> Wow. System, I take back calling you stingy.

[01:10:39]>> I am fine.

[01:10:41]Just leave me alone for a while.

[01:10:47]>> Brother, what is wrong? Why are you burning up?

[01:10:50]>> Do not worry.

[01:10:51]It is useless.

[01:10:53]He took my poison.

[01:10:55]Without the cure, he dies in 15 minutes.

[01:11:00]>> What?

[01:11:10]Brother, your skin is so hot.

[01:11:15]>> Xiao I took poison.

[01:11:25]You must leave.

[01:11:26]>> I will not do it.

[01:11:28]Brother, tell me how to cure this.

[01:11:31]>> There is no cure.

[01:11:34]Go now.

[01:11:35]Just go.

[01:11:38]>> Sister What should I do?

[01:11:42]What is this bliss powder?

[01:11:43]>> Bliss powder is a potent aphrodisiac.

[01:11:45]Best remedy, intercourse between a man and a woman is needed.

[01:11:50]>> Intimacy saves him. Adds 8,760 hours of life. Why does brother refuse?

[01:11:59]Brother?

[01:12:01]>> Ah, I cannot take advantage of him.

[01:12:21]>> Environment unsuitable. System shielding. 8,760 hours added.

[01:12:35]>> You only did that to save me.

[01:12:38]Dear.

[01:12:39]>> Yes, it was urgent. I could not just leave brother alone, right?

[01:12:44]>> What if someone else were poisoned and dying?

[01:12:48]You would save them, too.

[01:12:50]>> Of course I would.

[01:12:53]But I would find other ways. I would not sleep with others.

[01:12:57]I only want to sleep with brother.

[01:13:00]Host.

[01:13:02]Why would you choose other methods for other I have no idea. Honestly, I just cannot sleep based on emotional analysis.

[01:13:13]Your mental state is defined as possessiveness.

[01:13:18]Possessiveness.

[01:13:20]I really dislike being with anyone but brother.

[01:13:24]Why is that so?

[01:13:26]>> She's just kind.

[01:13:29]Saving lives.

[01:13:31]Not romantic love for me.

[01:13:34]I was rash to impose on her.

[01:13:39]Little you.

[01:13:40]I am sorry.

[01:13:42]It is my fault.

[01:13:45]But I promise to treat you well.

[01:13:51]Pursue with dignity and honor.

[01:13:55]>> Why the sudden apology?

[01:13:57]Actually, I should apologize. I have a secret I kept hidden.

[01:14:02]>> Do you mean the gift to foresee death and summon items as well?

[01:14:09]>> How did you know?

[01:14:11]>> I have some ideas.

[01:14:12]>> Back in brother, I have a system. Don't tell him. Guessing is one thing, but we cannot reveal the space and system.

[01:14:20]Or we get struck by lightning.

[01:14:24]Brother.

[01:14:26]I didn't mean to keep secrets, but think of it as a vast trunk that holds many things.

[01:14:32]What is inside I cannot say for some fates remain hidden.

[01:14:38]>> Indeed, her mysterious ability must be deeply connected to the so-called trunk.

[01:14:44]You.

[01:14:46]Whatever this trunk is or wherever you come from, I promise to protect you and help fulfill your every wish.

[01:14:56]>> Thank you, brother. You are so kind.

[01:15:04]What is all this for anyway?

[01:15:06]>> A token of gratitude from the people of Canyon City.

[01:15:09]Please accept it.

[01:15:12]You saved our city from ruin.

[01:15:15]So, we offer this thousandfold lotus to repay your grace.

[01:15:27]>> Mhm.

[01:15:28]To accept the gift is to accept the karma.

[01:15:32]I shall take it.

[01:15:36]>> The Chang thank the fairy for saving our scientist. We pledge peace with Southern Chu for a century.

[01:15:42]And end all wars.

[01:15:46]It is all thanks to the methods taught by the prince of Southern Chu.

[01:15:49]>> Chang.

[01:15:51]>> I have one more question for you.

[01:15:54]Did your high priest collude with the traitors of Southern Chu to betray us all?

[01:15:59]>> The immortal is absolutely correct.

[01:16:03]I have discovered numerous secret letters exchanged between the priest and the man who calls himself King Chishou.

[01:16:10]>> Brother, you said we would be safe in the territory of King Chishou.

[01:16:15]Why is he conspiring with the Chang?

[01:16:18]>> Regardless, we must head to Chishou City immediately to uncover the truth behind this mystery.

[01:16:28]>> So, this is Chishou City.

[01:16:32]>> I heard that the king brought more young women home yesterday.

[01:16:35]Raided the local pawn shop and seized several heavy chests of pure gold for himself.

[01:16:42]>> Lower your voice, lest the chief shall guards here. They will have your head for that.

[01:16:46]>> Move along now.

[01:16:48]>> Brother, King Qingshao does not sound like a good man.

[01:16:52]>> I will scout the entire mansion now.

[01:16:55]So, you go ahead and find our brother and mother to get settled.

[01:16:58]>> Brother, take me with you. Although I lack martial arts, I can still be of some assistance.

[01:17:04]>> It will be dangerous this time.

[01:17:07]Stay behind.

[01:17:09]>> No.

[01:17:10]You must take me with you.

[01:17:12]I have other tasks to handle.

[01:17:13]>> What kind of tasks?

[01:17:15]>> I'll rob the rich to help the poor.

[01:17:19]Clean out King Qingshao.

[01:17:34]Wealthy. This is truly incredibly wealthy.

[01:17:39]Is this really true?

[01:17:41]>> Uh These are fake. They are not real gold.

[01:17:51]>> Then is this one real?

[01:17:52]>> These here are also just fakes.

[01:17:57]>> So, where is the real one?

[01:18:04]Second brother.

[01:18:10]>> How can this >> Brother, do you know?

[01:18:15]>> She is my birth mother.

[01:18:18]Joji.

[01:18:24]Someone's here.

[01:18:26]Hide yourself. Don't you dare come out.

[01:18:42]>> Tell me.

[01:18:44]Why did Shel Chen send you to steal that corpse?

[01:18:46]>> Shel Chen?

[01:18:48]You escaped the dungeon despite the poison.

[01:18:51]You plotted this.

[01:18:53]Colluding with the Red Sky King, aren't you?

[01:19:01]This flute triggers the heart poison.

[01:19:12]>> Brother, are you okay?

[01:19:14]>> I'm fine.

[01:19:15]I had one more verse.

[01:19:26]>> It is fine.

[01:19:28]Brother.

[01:19:29]>> Your strike earlier, how was it faster than a crossbow? What was that?

[01:19:36]>> System, I need a weapon now.

[01:19:40]Redeemed.

[01:19:41]Deducting 3,000 points.

[01:19:43]33,878 remain.

[01:19:47]It is mine.

[01:19:48]Can't tell you.

[01:19:49]>> You You truly are full of many secrets.

[01:19:56]>> By the way, brother, why did your poison suddenly flare up?

[01:20:00]>> That flute melody triggered the venom.

[01:20:04]He must work for the emperor.

[01:20:07]>> It is fine.

[01:20:09]We shall have lotus tonight when we get back.

[01:20:12]>> Yet, when I clashed with him earlier, his words implied he has no ties to the Red Firmament King.

[01:20:20]But why is my mother's body lying here in this place?

[01:20:26]>> Who dares to trespass?

[01:20:33]>> Such an old man falling asleep fast.

[01:20:36]>> He is the one.

[01:20:38]King Xisha.

[01:20:47]Turn up. It is you. YOU ARE STILL ALIVE.

[01:20:51]>> SPEAK.

[01:20:52]Was it you abducting girls?

[01:20:54]These in shops robbing the people.

[01:20:56]>> Well, this >> What is this any >> Rumors.

[01:21:01]Pure rumors.

[01:21:03]Those young girls are refugees from the north. I only took them in to help me deliver messages. As for the shops, they stole public silver.

[01:21:13]I merely confiscated them for justice.

[01:21:15]>> I see. So, that is it. Then, you must be a good king.

[01:21:21]>> A good king? Hardly, I think so.

[01:21:25]Uncle.

[01:21:26]>> Uncle.

[01:21:28]>> You are his uncle, yes.

[01:21:31]And you are his nephew.

[01:21:33]>> He is my mother's own brother.

[01:21:37]So, he is definitely my true uncle indeed.

[01:21:39]>> They say nephews resemble uncles.

[01:21:42]You're not like it. You're not like it.

[01:21:45]>> And what is the relation between you two?

[01:21:48]>> Us?

[01:21:49]He is my second brother.

[01:21:51]>> She is Jin Yu.

[01:21:56]Shwiner has grown up. If your mother were alive, sure to rejoice.

[01:22:05]Yet, for some reason, my mother's remains are actually here.

[01:22:12]I Shout and seized the Xisha army by force, ravaged my sister, and compelled her to yield the Yin Yang pendant to command it.

[01:22:22]She endured 10 long years.

[01:22:24]What a pity.

[01:22:28]Hey.

[01:22:29]Run.

[01:22:30]Back when I snuck into the tomb just to bring your mother back.

[01:22:56]My sister vowed before death she would never be buried in the Imperial Tomb.

[01:23:02]>> Did the emperor not notice it?

[01:23:04]>> He is paranoid.

[01:23:07]Likely found the queen's body gone.

[01:23:10]He suspects the Shi Shao Clan first.

[01:23:14]>> You said she passed 10 years ago, yet her face though.

[01:23:19]>> It is strange.

[01:23:22]Sister's body shows no signs of decay.

[01:23:24]Only one possibility remain.

[01:23:31]Did mother hide the Yin Yang pendant?

[01:23:34]Inside her It commands 100,000 troops.

[01:23:40]And she left it all for you to lead.

[01:23:42]>> Just an uncle.

[01:23:45]I have two things to say to mother.

[01:24:01]Mother.

[01:24:03]When I was young you often said once I grew up found a wife you would be at peace.

[01:24:14]But now I have finally found my true lifelong partner.

[01:24:21]>> Why look at me?

[01:24:23]Talking of a partner.

[01:24:26]>> Please, rest assured.

[01:24:29]>> Rest easy.

[01:24:31]I will look after him forever.

[01:24:33]As that is truly my only reason to keep living.

[01:24:36]>> Together for a lifetime.

[01:24:41]>> Huh? Brother, look here.

[01:24:48]It commands 100,000 troops.

[01:24:51]>> The Chick Shaw army obeys only this jade, but if the emperor gains it, dire consequences follow.

[01:25:02]Thank you, Mother.

[01:25:09]>> The lotus pill is ready.

[01:25:10]Take it now, Your Highness.

[01:25:26]With less than half a month left, vanishing soon.

[01:25:35]Quick.

[01:25:37]Get a doctor.

[01:25:38]Are you feeling all right, brother?

[01:25:42]Suddenly appear.

[01:25:45]Host.

[01:25:46]What is wrong, you ask?

[01:25:48]He took the pill.

[01:25:50]Why is he still like this? He lacked the core crystal.

[01:25:54]Both are needed to break the curse.

[01:25:56]Why not say so you lack points to swap for it?

[01:26:00]Where is it if you do not say?

[01:26:03]I will end us both right here.

[01:26:05]Wait. Calm down.

[01:26:08]It is in Chick Shaw city.

[01:26:09]No points will be deducted.

[01:26:11]Dumb system. I still rule you.

[01:26:18]Brother.

[01:26:20]are you feeling okay?

[01:26:25]>> Where are Mama and Bro?

[01:26:28]>> They went to fetch the doctor.

[01:26:31]>> Their presence here only deepens the sorrow.

[01:26:35]Berry, could you tell me the current time?

[01:26:40]See how much I have left.

[01:26:41]>> Do not ever say such things.

[01:26:44]Brother, thousand lotus fails.

[01:26:47]Earth marrow is needed.

[01:26:49]Both must be taken.

[01:26:52]>> Earth marrow heals.

[01:26:54]How could Xuan be poisoned?

[01:26:56]Could it be the emperor?

[01:26:59]Vile, even beasts spare kin. How could he >> Enough with the insults. Tell me where Earth marrow is.

[01:27:05]>> An auction for the lotus towers tomorrow.

[01:27:08]And it will feature the rare Earth marrow.

[01:27:11]>> Great, brother.

[01:27:13]I knew you would not leave me.

[01:27:15]>> I I will go with you tomorrow.

[01:27:19]>> You were poisoned by Eclipse.

[01:27:21]This drug will stabilize your internal power.

[01:27:24]Further delay could be dire.

[01:27:27]>> And he thanks dear uncle.

[01:27:30]Help by Xuan aside.

[01:27:33]Perhaps I can truly rest easy now.

[01:27:38]>> Second brother, what is this?

[01:27:44]>> Huh?

[01:27:47]What are you doing?

[01:27:48]>> I just wanted to see what this is.

[01:27:51]>> These are knockout drops.

[01:27:55]>> You need this ma.

[01:27:57]>> Auctions carry risks.

[01:27:59]So, it is best to be well prepared.

[01:28:02]>> Surely, it is not that extreme.

[01:28:07]>> Are you worried about me?

[01:28:10]>> I am worried about you.

[01:28:12]>> Mhm, looking so good.

[01:28:15]>> What if people target you?

[01:28:18]>> So, you only worry if I look good?

[01:28:22]>> I am just worried the poison remains.

[01:28:25]You must be cautious out.

[01:28:30]>> Then, teach me to use your weapon.

[01:28:32]>> You mean this one?

[01:28:34]>> Mhm?

[01:28:35]>> You can master it.

[01:28:39]>> Then, stay right by my side to protect me.

[01:28:43]Okay.

[01:28:45]>> Do that again, I will feed you this.

[01:28:50]>> You do not have the heart.

[01:28:51]>> Stop being so narcissistic.

[01:28:55]>> Seriously, Jinyu, we both must return safe and sound. All right.

[01:29:02]>> No reckless charges. Stay close.

[01:29:05]>> But, tomorrow, you must pretend.

[01:29:10]>> Pretend what?

[01:29:13]>> Second brother.

[01:29:15]>> Why pretend to be a married couple with me?

[01:29:18]>> Look, this Hibiscus Pavilion is crowded.

[01:29:23]Posing as a couple helps avoid trouble.

[01:29:27]It also conceals my identity.

[01:29:29]>> You have a point.

[01:29:31]So, you call me wife. What should I call you?

[01:29:33]>> Well then, naturally, you call me husband.

[01:29:38]>> Husband?

[01:29:39]>> Mhm?

[01:29:40]>> No way.

[01:29:42]Why are there so many married men here?

[01:29:46]If I call you husband, everyone will stare.

[01:29:54]My lord.

[01:30:02]>> Just call him second brother.

[01:30:04]>> Mhm.

[01:30:05]There are many husbands, but I am your only brother.

[01:30:10]>> Come.

[01:30:18]>> So, this is the auction house.

[01:30:20]Quite lively.

[01:30:22]But the fee is 100 tails.

[01:30:24]>> Everyone here is quite wealthy.

[01:30:27]So, they charge 100 just to rip them all off easily.

[01:30:30]>> The auction begins now.

[01:30:55]>> Stop staring.

[01:30:56]My lord, I think we've been spotted.

[01:31:02]>> What happened?

[01:31:04]>> Shou Chi, it seems he is onto me.

[01:31:07]>> Next is item 19, Earth marrow essence, starting at 100 tails.

[01:31:18]180, 200, plus more.

[01:31:21]>> 350.

[01:31:23]>> 1,000.

[01:31:25]Any higher bids, 3,000.

[01:31:27]Great.

[01:31:28]Hm.

[01:31:29]>> Fight.

[01:31:31]>> 3,000. Room nine bids 3,000.

[01:31:34]>> The pith essence costs 500 at most, yet someone bid 3,000.

[01:31:38]>> Are you insane? Is room nine occupied by a total fool?

[01:31:42]>> 3,000 tails once. 3,000 twice.

[01:31:45]3,000 two or three times.

[01:31:48]Sold to room nine.

[01:31:50]Earth essence is yours.

[01:31:51]Such a waste of money.

[01:31:52]>> Brother, you just snatched the crystal away.

[01:32:00]Brother, you know that guy?

[01:32:03]>> Of course I do.

[01:32:04]>> Who is it?

[01:32:07]>> H Chen.

[01:32:08]>> Big brother.

[01:32:12]>> There are too many eyes here.

[01:32:14]So I cannot show my face.

[01:32:17]I asked my brother to bid for this crystal instead.

[01:32:20]>> I see.

[01:32:22]This is a clever diversion to throw them off.

[01:32:25]>> A lotus was stolen.

[01:32:28]He must know the cure.

[01:32:30]I set this trap to catch him at last.

[01:32:34]My lord.

[01:32:37]A man in purple won the bid in room nine.

[01:32:41]A man in purple, could it be him?

[01:32:43]Xiao Shren is quite cunning.

[01:32:46]Please send three separate teams to keep a close watch on the inn, him, and the buyer.

[01:32:52]And make sure to report back to me at once.

[01:32:56]Go, proceed.

[01:32:59]>> And now, the 20th auction item.

[01:33:02]>> A brother won the crystal.

[01:33:05]Will he be followed by someone?

[01:33:07]>> Do not worry.

[01:33:09]His skills are average.

[01:33:11]But he is fast.

[01:33:12]Hardly anyone can keep up.

[01:33:14]Oh, oh, it is the royal guard. Brother is in danger. I must go and check.

[01:33:20]>> Wait for me, brother.

[01:33:22]Take this medicine from our uncle first.

[01:33:31]Be very careful.

[01:33:34]>> You are waiting here for me to return.

[01:33:58]>> Brother, why so late, brother?

[01:34:02]They told you he was still at the inn.

[01:34:04]Let's go. Okay.

[01:34:09]>> Officer.

[01:34:12]>> Wait a moment. It is a mistake.

[01:34:15]>> You, don't be swayed by him. Step aside.

[01:34:21]>> Second brother.

[01:34:22]>> Sure.

[01:34:23]>> Not safe here. Let us talk elsewhere.

[01:34:30]>> What happened exactly?

[01:34:32]How many pills did Tran swallow?

[01:34:35]>> These are from uncle.

[01:34:36]Take them first.

[01:34:43]I feared he would fail.

[01:34:46]So I fed him three or four more.

[01:34:48]>> It is my fault for not telling you that this medicine boost your power quite fast.

[01:34:53]But an overdose will inevitably lead to severe internal chaos for you.

[01:34:57]>> Qi deviation? What should I do then?

[01:35:00]>> Only this can cool him down.

[01:35:04]>> Cool him down?

[01:35:05]What does cooling mean?

[01:35:08]>> Cooling means that >> Huh? What is cooling?

[01:35:21]He's burning up.

[01:35:23]Worse than a fever. It is totally out of control. No, before revenge, his life will burn away.

[01:35:31]System, what do I do?

[01:35:34]>> Scan done.

[01:35:35]Two forces clash in Pei Xuan.

[01:35:38]Transfer toxins to another life.

[01:35:40]>> Fine. I will.

[01:35:43]>> Warning.

[01:35:44]This drains host life. It may drop your life to zero.

[01:35:47]>> He is my tank. If the tank breaks, my life ends.

[01:35:57]>> You don't leave.

[01:36:01]>> Rest.

[01:36:02]I am stay.

[01:36:14]Auction shift.

[01:36:16]Host health is fading fast.

[01:36:34]Glad I am not dead. Still time to stay.

[01:36:43]Come in. He is well.

[01:36:49]>> My brother is really fast.

[01:36:52]Yes.

[01:36:54]Your highness.

[01:36:55]Oh my.

[01:36:56]>> Healed quickly.

[01:36:57]>> Girl, are you okay?

[01:37:00]>> I am fine now. Right. Go get a doctor.

[01:37:04]Stabilize brother, too.

[01:37:05]>> All right. Right. Okay. Go. Go. Go.

[01:37:10]>> Kissing felt nothing, but why is my heartbeat so fast now?

[01:37:15]Brother.

[01:37:17]You woke up.

[01:37:21]Huck works.

[01:37:22]Life adds hours.

[01:37:24]As long as tank stays, fish will survive slowly.

[01:37:28]>> Right.

[01:37:30]What happened at the Lotus Pavilion?

[01:37:34]>> After the auction house began to collapse, I dashed into a secret tunnel and found it filled with gold. I suspect it was meant for the emperor's hoard, so I took it all for myself.

[01:37:44]>> What about Shao Chi then?

[01:37:46]Okay.

[01:37:47]>> Shao Chi walked in right after I finished my looting.

[01:37:53]What are you doing?

[01:37:56]>> The emperor set traps in the capital.

[01:37:58]So, I told Shua not to return.

[01:38:01]He threatened my family. Betraying Shua was my fault.

[01:38:04]Only my death can leave the troops leaderless.

[01:38:09]Only then can he lead the army to storm the capital.

[01:38:14]>> After I stopped his suicide, his death countdown ended.

[01:38:19]So, I don't think he was acting.

[01:38:21]>> On the crowning day, the sword Shouchi used against me avoided all my vital spots.

[01:38:27]Could it be that he is actually helping me?

[01:38:30]>> Why don't we just call him over and ask?

[01:38:46]>> So, the secret soul who saved me that day is linked to you.

[01:38:52]Yes.

[01:38:57]The emperor trusts me deeply now. If you wish, I will aid you.

[01:39:02]Just please save my wife and child.

[01:39:08]Since you ask, uncle, I will save them.

[01:39:14]>> Uncle, please sit down and eat.

[01:39:17]This dish is so fragrant.

[01:39:20]Mmm, delicious.

[01:39:22]Here, try this, brother. What? How about this, too?

[01:39:26]>> This young lady Her name is Jing Yu. I only survived because she saved me.

[01:39:43]If Jing Yu saved the Crown Prince.

[01:39:46]I shall cherish your kindness forever.

[01:39:50]>> Uncle, why must you keep kneeling?

[01:39:53]>> Jenner, Jen you, the marrow crystal is refined.

[01:40:00]You are I have been away from the capital for quite some time.

[01:40:05]I must return to appease the emperor, Xuan.

[01:40:08]You must stay safe. Well, once I reach the capital, I will write to you.

[01:40:19]Why is Shao Chi in my Scarlet Mansion?

[01:40:28]Mhm.

[01:40:30]Shao Chi is close to the emperor.

[01:40:33]We must be wary.

[01:40:34]This is Earth Marrow Essence.

[01:40:38]Try not to take it first.

[01:40:40]I'll send men to follow Shao Chi.

[01:40:44]>> Second brother, take the medicine.

[01:41:07]Second brother.

[01:41:09]Second brother.

[01:41:13]>> The poison bug is finally forced out.

[01:41:16]I am fine now.

[01:41:21]>> Congrats, host, for saving a life. Your total score is now 32,166.

[01:41:33]>> The curse is gone.

[01:41:35]But I must return to the capital for urgent business.

[01:41:39]I cannot stay these days.

[01:41:45]>> We'll handle your work.

[01:41:47]Don't worry. Big brother and mother are here with me. I will be fine.

[01:41:51]>> Thank you.

[01:41:55]>> Return.

[01:41:58]Won't return.

[01:42:00]Back or not back?

[01:42:03]Back.

[01:42:07]Did you not say you would be back today?

[01:42:09]You are not back yet.

[01:42:11]Did second brother forget me?

[01:42:16]Did you not say you would return so soon, you liar?

[01:42:23]>> Huh?

[01:42:25]Third sister.

[01:42:27]Why the long face? Is it because second brother is away?

[01:42:32]And you are lovesick.

[01:42:34]>> Oh my.

[01:42:35]What is wrong with me? Why is he always on my mind? This is not like me. I am going crazy.

[01:42:45]>> Mhm?

[01:42:46]>> You are lovesick. I am not missing him at all. I will tell mother that you are bullying me.

[01:42:51]>> Third sister, I was joking. Please don't tell mom.

[01:42:54]>> Oh, mother.

[01:42:56]New clothes.

[01:42:58]For me?

[01:43:00]>> I wanted to surprise you.

[01:43:02]The prince wants to hold your coming-of-age.

[01:43:05]So he asked me to prepare.

[01:43:08]>> Coming-of-age.

[01:43:10]>> Mother.

[01:43:11]When you hold my coming-of-age ceremony, could you also host the one for my second brother?

[01:43:16]It is true.

[01:43:18]It is my fault, my fault. I was focused on the prince's revenge.

[01:43:23]Forgetting he was falsely accused.

[01:43:25]And missed his right.

[01:43:27]>> Still you is quite thoughtful.

[01:43:29]>> Mom, I actually want to give my brother a gift, too.

[01:43:35]>> Mom, there's sis. My brother is home.

[01:43:44]>> Haven't been alone with you for days.

[01:43:47]Why does it feel so strange?

[01:43:54]>> You, why don't you come inside?

[01:43:56]>> I've missed my second brother so much.

[01:43:59]But I wonder if he feels the same.

[01:44:02]He's been away on duty for days without a word.

[01:44:05]Could he have found someone else?

[01:44:10]>> You, what are you thinking about?

[01:44:13]>> I was wondering if you fell for another girl lately.

[01:44:20]>> You, are are you feeling a bit jealous today?

[01:44:23]>> What is jealousy?

[01:44:26]I do not know why I am sad, or why I feel this way.

[01:44:30]Brother, you were in town for so many days without a single letter.

[01:44:36]I felt so sad.

[01:44:37]>> While I was in the capital, you were all I could think about. I was just really afraid that if I wrote, I would rush back to see you again soon.

[01:44:49]>> I am safe now.

[01:44:52]So, why do I still want to see you every single day, you?

[01:44:55]You have fallen in love.

[01:44:59]What is love?

[01:45:01]Is it what humans call love?

[01:45:03]Why do I feel so nervous?

[01:45:05]I have never felt nervous like this before.

[01:45:12]>> You, you are acting strange today.

[01:45:16]>> Why do I still yearn to be close?

[01:45:22]>> Just days apart, yet so distant.

[01:45:26]You, oh, u >> Is this what humans call love?

[01:45:38]I don't miss you at all.

[01:45:41]>> It is strange.

[01:45:44]Her kiss feels different to me today.

[01:45:50]>> Brother, look.

[01:45:57]>> This is meant for me.

[01:45:59]Really?

[01:46:00]>> I knew you would hold my coming-of-age ceremony.

[01:46:04]So, shall we hold yours together with mine today for a truly special celebration?

[01:46:07]>> My crowning right.

[01:46:10]>> Brother, I will protect you.

[01:46:14]All will go well.

[01:46:21]Once a child, now dressed in grace.

[01:46:25]Wishing you peace evermore.

[01:46:27]Joy without end.

[01:46:31]Your highness, this was her final wish for you.

[01:46:36]>> Thank you, mother.

[01:46:43]>> Upon this day, may our dear girl be blessed with health, safe from all harm.

[01:46:54]>> Thanks, mother.

[01:47:06]>> Mother.

[01:47:09]>> Please sit.

[01:47:24]>> The end up.

[01:47:30]>> Why does it look like they're getting married to me?

[01:47:36]>> Your majesty.

[01:47:41]The spark seal has appeared in the red sky realm. How much can you decipher from these reports?

[01:47:48]It seems Xuan has rallied his old guard to march on the capital city again.

[01:47:53]>> Your majesty.

[01:47:55]The final character means fish.

[01:47:59]>> I can see that myself.

[01:48:02]I do not need your input.

[01:48:04]The spark seal is the exile princess key. Only a loyalist could break it.

[01:48:09]>> Hm.

[01:48:10]>> You two have faced death together time and again.

[01:48:14]If you aren't his right-hand man, then who could be?

[01:48:19]>> Remember whose side you are on.

[01:48:22]>> Think of your wife and child.

[01:48:24]Your majesty, Xiao Xuan is truly cunning.

[01:48:28]Have the men sent for Joji's body return.

[01:48:32]>> Not yet.

[01:48:33]>> Damn it.

[01:48:34]>> Find the cure for the soul fire poison soon.

[01:48:37]>> The Yin-Yang match might be hidden within Joji's corpse.

[01:48:40]>> Even if Xiao Xuan and the crimson king unite, there is less than 1 month until the venom takes hold. Xiao Xuan is already at his limit.

[01:48:49]>> Track Xiao Xuan and I Sapna. Once his location is found, kill him without mercy. Remember, I must I must see Xiao Xuan's head with my own eyes. As you command.

[01:49:06]>> I am exhausted. This is mother's favorite fabric. She will surely love this dress.

[01:49:12]Eldest brother loves wine.

[01:49:16]This is his favorite peach brew.

[01:49:19]Gifts for uncle.

[01:49:21]>> Since you know everyone's preferences so well, do you know what I like?

[01:49:25]>> Of course.

[01:49:27]You like black.

[01:49:29]You love swords, tea, mother, and the people.

[01:49:32]Still, you like me.

[01:49:36]Right?

[01:49:39]>> I used to think I was indifferent to everything around me.

[01:49:43]But that changed.

[01:49:45]But with you, Shao Yu, I feel like I am truly alive.

[01:49:50]Not dull or boring at all.

[01:49:55]>> That is because you have always been a vibrant person, flesh and blood.

[01:50:06]>> Sister-in-law, let us get going now.

[01:50:17]>> Mom, Dian Yu, you look so stunning.

[01:50:21]>> The Chixiao Army is 20 miles out, and the Chang weaponry is ready.

[01:50:26]Shao Chi's 15 family members are held at a manor, but it is heavily guarded, and the situation inside is unclear.

[01:50:33]>> That is no problem. My brother and I can get in.

[01:50:38]>> Right.

[01:50:40]Here is the layout of the manor's guards.

[01:50:43]Before leaving Kang Yan, I had the Chang King stage an attack, so the emperor has sent troops to assist.

[01:50:50]Shao Chen still has some troops near the capital.

[01:50:53]>> But for our Chi Shao facing 300,000 troops, it is like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

[01:50:58]>> Exactly.

[01:50:59]I've chosen 50 elite soldiers.

[01:51:02]Uncle, take them in when you return to the palace tonight.

[01:51:05]But when the time comes, we shall coordinate our attack.

[01:51:09]>> Rest assured, Your Highness. Chen and I will lead 500 Chixiao troops to rescue your family.

[01:51:14]>> Then I leave it all to you, Nian Jia.

[01:51:16]Hm, all right.

[01:51:17]Xiao Xian, tonight we settle every score, old and new.

[01:51:23]Hm.

[01:51:24]Hm.

[01:51:31]Xian'er.

[01:51:32]Miss Jin Yu.

[01:51:34]Are you still there? We are.

[01:51:37]They come and don't give yourselves away. Good.

[01:51:47]Your majesty, Xiao Xian is dead. You say Xiao Xian has died? Then, where is his head?

[01:51:54]His head is right here. Come and take it if you can.

[01:52:00]How did you manage to get in?

[01:52:03]How did you enter? Not just us. There are more experts all around you.

[01:52:10]Impossible.

[01:52:12]The palace is guarded.

[01:52:15]How could you enter?

[01:52:16]Getting in is easy, my box.

[01:52:21]After swallowing gold fits a tea.

[01:52:24]A raid needs few.

[01:52:27]Just pick a dozen elites.

[01:52:29]I worry about you.

[01:52:32]It is easy.

[01:52:34]Just drug them.

[01:52:36]Let them sleep. Put them in.

[01:52:39]And once inside, wake them up. This way, nobody notices.

[01:52:47]We follow whatever you says.

[01:52:50]So, what if you are in with just a few of you?

[01:52:54]Could you really overturn the sky guards?

[01:52:58]FREEZE THEM.

[01:53:00]GUARDS, HELP ME.

[01:53:02]OH.

[01:53:03]MY APOLOGIES. I forgot to tell you, your guards were all drugged by us.

[01:53:08]Now it is just you.

[01:53:10]>> No.

[01:53:11]>> Both of you.

[01:53:14]>> Xiaoqi, order the human troops to enter the palace and quell the rebellion.

[01:53:20]>> Your highness, the guards have seized the palace, awaiting orders outside.

[01:53:29]>> Xiaoqi, you dare betray me and conspire with Xiao Xuan to revolt?

[01:53:35]>> Brother, to seize the throne, you slaughtered our kin.

[01:53:41]I lived like a dog for many long years to survive your cruelty.

[01:53:48]If you show no mercy, don't blame me.

[01:53:51]You're >> Your highness, the prince's family is now safe and has been relocated.

[01:54:00]All of your sentries are dead and gone.

[01:54:02]>> Mhm.

[01:54:03]>> Your majesty, oh, what will you do now?

[01:54:06]>> Nurse Chang, you are Chang, Xiaoqi's maid.

[01:54:12]You fell off the cliff.

[01:54:14]So, how are you alive?

[01:54:16]>> Thanks to the Empress.

[01:54:17]I faked my own death just to avenge her.

[01:54:20]Now die, you cruel and heartless tyrant.

[01:54:30]>> I have 150,000 troops outside.

[01:54:35]Eunuch Sul, attack.

[01:54:39]>> Your majesty, I simply cannot get out of here.

[01:54:43]>> Useless.

[01:54:48]What is going on? Deputy Cha.

[01:54:51]>> Your majesty, 300,000 crimson troops are at the gates.

[01:54:57]General Wong was killed.

[01:54:58]The Imperial guards are all captured.

[01:55:06]>> What other tricks do you have?

[01:55:09]Show them all to me now.

[01:55:17]>> Grateful wretch.

[01:55:19]Remember the venom in your veins.

[01:55:22]I'll drag you to hell with me.

[01:55:30]>> No matter how you boast, brother will be fine as his poison was cured long ago.

[01:55:37]>> Shao Kahn.

[01:55:39]You bullied my sister and seek to kill your son.

[01:55:42]You are worse than a beast.

[01:55:45]The Shokan army awaits outside.

[01:55:49]Your end is near.

[01:55:51]>> Hurry and find a way out.

[01:55:58]>> At least I am useless, not heartless.

[01:56:03]Go to hell, you dark emperor.

[01:56:11]>> Three tyrants fell. Wise king ascends.

[01:56:15]>> Four hands.

[01:56:17]Right here.

[01:56:19]>> A brand new world is dawning.

[01:56:24]>> Hail our new king.

[01:56:27]Oh, may you reign over us.
