**[01:54] ---**
Lian,
**[01:55] ---**
how about a drink?
**[02:21] ---**
It's okay,
**[02:23] ---**
Is this drink not to your taste, Lian?
**[02:26] ---**
Oh no, not at all!
**[02:28] ---**
It's just that I suddenly remembered that
**[02:30] ---**
I need to abstain from
alcohol for my cultivation.
**[02:34] ---**
Sorry,
**[02:35] ---**
I didn't consider that.
**[02:38] ---**
It's not your fault,
**[02:39] ---**
I just forgot myself.
**[02:42] ---**
Cultivation, huh?
**[02:44] ---**
I thought it was about enjoying life freely.
**[02:46] ---**
If it's all about giving up this and that,
**[02:48] ---**
maybe it's better not to cultivate at all...
**[02:49] ---**
It must be the Wind Master for sure...
**[02:51] ---**
What do you think,Lian?
**[02:54] ---**
Some sects indeed don't care much,
**[02:57] ---**
but in my sect,
**[02:58] ---**
it's customary to abstain from
alcohol, sexual indulgence,
**[03:00] ---**
and also anger.
**[03:01] ---**
Abstain from anger?
**[03:02] ---**
Yes,
**[03:04] ---**
for example, in a gambling house...
**[03:05] ---**
People experience great joy
and sorrow in an instant...
**[03:07] ---**
and it's very easy to get angry.
**[03:09] ---**
But if one can maintain a calm mind
**[03:12] ---**
and not be perturbed by winning or losing,
**[03:13] ---**
then there's no need to consciously
abstain from gambling.
**[03:15] ---**
No wonder you still have an interest in
**[03:17] ---**
going to a gambling house.
**[03:19] ---**
Speaking of which...
**[03:20] ---**
San Lang your gambling skills
**[03:22] ---**
are truly incredible.
**[03:25] ---**
It's no big deal,
**[03:26] ---**
just sheer good luck.
**[03:28] ---**
San Lang,
**[03:29] ---**
please don't tease me...
**[03:32] ---**
How could I dare to tease you, Lian?
**[03:34] ---**
If you want to learn...
**[03:35] ---**
I actually have a shortcut method
**[03:37] ---**
that will make you unbeatable in any battle.
**[03:40] ---**
Is there really some secret technique
**[03:42] ---**
for dice throwing?
**[03:44] ---**
Give me your hand.
**[03:49] ---**
Alright,
**[03:50] ---**
now try again.
**[03:58] ---**
What kind of method is this?
**[04:00] ---**
It's nothing special,
**[04:01] ---**
just lending some luck to you, Lian.
**[04:06] ---**
Next time...
**[04:07] ---**
if you want to gamble with someone...
**[04:09] ---**
Why don't you come to me first?
**[04:10] ---**
I'll give you as much as you want.
**[04:13] ---**
Once I defeat an opponent, they won't be
able to turn the tables for a hundred years.
**[04:17] ---**
These two dice...
**[04:19] ---**
If you don't mind, consider them
a little gift for you, Lian.
**[04:24] ---**
Why would I mind.
**[04:25] ---**
Then thank you, San Lang.
**[04:28] ---**
Want to play a few more rounds?
**[04:29] ---**
Sure.
**[04:33] ---**
It's getting late, Lian,
**[04:34] ---**
get some good rest.
**[04:42] ---**
San Lang, you've been flawless
in your treatment towards me.
**[04:45] ---**
I hope this matter has
nothing to do with San Lang,
**[04:47] ---**
and once we uncover the truth,
**[04:48] ---**
I'll immediately apologize to him...
**[04:51] ---**
Wind Master?
**[04:53] ---**
Your Highness?
**[04:56] ---**
Suffocating!
**[04:58] ---**
Suffocating!
**[05:00] ---**
Oh my god,
**[05:01] ---**
these things are strangling me to death!
**[05:06] ---**
Wind Master!
**[05:07] ---**
Can't you change back to your
original white Dao robe?
**[05:10] ---**
Am I stupid?
**[05:11] ---**
Wearing a bright white Dao robe
in the middle of the night,
**[05:14] ---**
making myself a target?
**[05:17] ---**
Dressed like this,
**[05:18] ---**
in a certain sense, it's
even more eye-catching.
**[05:21] ---**
Wind Master, didn't we agree
to meet again after three days?
**[05:26] ---**
I heard you were sent to the Paradise Manor!
**[05:29] ---**
I've put in tremendous effort worrying
**[05:30] ---**
about your safety...
**[05:33] ---**
Face-lifting!
**[05:34] ---**
Waist-cinching!
**[05:35] ---**
Just got in!
**[05:38] ---**
I've never made such a huge sacrifice before!
**[05:43] ---**
What about Prince Taihua?
**[05:44] ---**
He shouldn't get into trouble
while he's alone outside.
**[05:47] ---**
Don't worry!
**[05:48] ---**
I've made all the arrangements,
**[05:49] ---**
foolproof!
**[05:54] ---**
But
**[05:55] ---**
Your Highness,
**[05:56] ---**
you're really lucky!
**[05:58] ---**
I'm lucky?
**[05:59] ---**
Yes,
**[06:00] ---**
both Qianqiu and I had a tough
time in the City of Ghost...
**[06:05] ---**
You, on the other hand,
**[06:06] ---**
are eating well, drinking
well, and living comfortably.
**[06:10] ---**
There's even the Crimson Rain Sought
Flower accompanying you as a guest.
**[06:14] ---**
It's indeed a bit...
**[06:16] ---**
So, Your Highness,
**[06:17] ---**
do you remember our mission in
the City of Ghost this time?
**[06:20] ---**
Of course I do.
**[06:22] ---**
Just now in the palace,
**[06:23] ---**
I was preparing for the mission.
**[06:24] ---**
Really?
**[06:26] ---**
All I remember is the
two of you playing dice,
**[06:29] ---**
not taking it seriously.
**[06:30] ---**
Wind Master, please don't talk nonsense.
**[06:32] ---**
We were just sparring.
**[06:34] ---**
Sparring?
**[06:35] ---**
About gambling skills?
**[06:36] ---**
What does that have to do with the mission?
**[06:38] ---**
Actually...
**[06:39] ---**
I've discovered some clues.
**[06:41] ---**
But to investigate further,
**[06:42] ---**
I need a bit of luck.
**[06:45] ---**
Luck?
**[06:47] ---**
Looks like the two of us...
**[06:49] ---**
That's why
**[06:50] ---**
I borrowed some.
**[06:56] ---**
Wow...
**[06:57] ---**
You really have some
incredible luck in gambling!
**[07:00] ---**
Yeah...
**[07:03] ---**
Well, at this point, let's
try to stay positive.
**[07:05] ---**
But if I were you,
**[07:06] ---**
I wouldn't have agreed to
help His Majesty the Emperor.
**[07:08] ---**
It's just asking for trouble.
**[07:11] ---**
Wind Master,
**[07:12] ---**
you still don't fully understand Jun Wu.
**[07:15] ---**
If it weren't for the circumstances...
**[07:18] ---**
In any case,
**[07:19] ---**
the distress signal was sent seven days ago,
**[07:21] ---**
and Hua Cheng left seven days ago as well...
**[07:23] ---**
It's too much of a coincidence.
**[07:25] ---**
We have to investigate...
**[07:38] ---**
By the way...
**[07:39] ---**
Have there been any heavenly officials from the
Heavenly Court who were demoted in recent years?
**[07:42] ---**
Well, there's you,
**[07:42] ---**
isn't it?
**[07:43] ---**
Besides me...
**[07:45] ---**
Why do you ask about that?
**[07:47] ---**
This underground passage
**[07:48] ---**
was discovered by following a ghost
messenger named Waning Moon Officer...
**[07:52] ---**
And he had this set of
curse shackle on his hands.
**[07:54] ---**
What?
**[07:55] ---**
Curse shackle?
**[07:56] ---**
Yes,
**[07:57] ---**
it's likely that he was a demoted heavenly
official from the Heavenly Court.
**[08:00] ---**
So arrogant?
**[08:01] ---**
Hiring a former heavenly
official as a subordinate?
**[08:04] ---**
It's not necessarily arrogant.
**[08:05] ---**
Since he was demoted,
**[08:07] ---**
where he goes afterward is a personal choice.
**[08:09] ---**
But...
**[08:10] ---**
It's just that the actions of this
ghost messenger are suspicious.
**[08:13] ---**
That's why I thought of asking
you Wind Master about it.
**[08:17] ---**
There was indeed a Western Martial
God who was demoted in recent years,
**[08:20] ---**
and it caused quite a stir.
**[08:22] ---**
The Western Martial God?
**[08:24] ---**
Isn't that Quan Yizhen?
**[08:26] ---**
But I don't think it would be him.
**[08:28] ---**
Why is that?
**[08:29] ---**
Well, he comes from a
very orthodox background,
**[08:31] ---**
and his personality isn't the
type to be unpredictable.
**[08:34] ---**
Why did it end so abruptly?
**[08:37] ---**
This is a dead-end?
**[08:38] ---**
That can't be possible.
**[08:40] ---**
It shouldn't be.
**[08:42] ---**
Going through all this trouble to
build this underground passage,
**[08:44] ---**
it definitely wasn't meant for meditation.
**[08:48] ---**
This wall.
**[08:49] ---**
It must be at least as thick as 33 meters.
**[08:51] ---**
We can't break through it.
**[08:52] ---**
Wind Master,
**[08:53] ---**
look on the ground.
**[08:55] ---**
It seems like there's something.
**[08:58] ---**
Could it be that we need to throw
the dice with the correct number
**[09:00] ---**
to open this stone wall?
**[09:02] ---**
It seems like it.
**[09:04] ---**
We just don't know
**[09:05] ---**
what the right combination is...
**[09:07] ---**
Since we've come this far,
**[09:08] ---**
it's not practical to
go back and investigate.
**[09:09] ---**
Let's just randomly throw something
out and see what happens.
**[09:12] ---**
Well…
**[09:13] ---**
why don't you give it a try, Wind Master?
**[09:16] ---**
Alright.
**[09:26] ---**
Does it really not work...
**[09:27] ---**
Your Highness!
**[09:28] ---**
Look at your feet!
**[09:31] ---**
The pattern has changed.
**[09:34] ---**
What is this?
**[09:35] ---**
An Earthworm?
**[09:36] ---**
A leech?
**[09:38] ---**
I've seen quite a few in the fields before.
**[09:39] ---**
Where exactly do you usually... um?
**[09:54] ---**
What's going on here?
**[09:56] ---**
It seems like the stone
wall was just a decoy,
**[09:58] ---**
and the floor tiles on the
ground are the real entrance.
**[10:04] ---**
This soil...
**[10:07] ---**
Thank goodness the soil is soft,
**[10:08] ---**
or else I would have hurt
myself from the fall...
**[10:15] ---**
What kind of place is this?
**[10:17] ---**
They don't even give us enough
space to stand upright!
**[10:21] ---**
Could it be that I threw the wrong number
**[10:24] ---**
and ended up being thrown here?
**[10:25] ---**
Highly possible.
**[10:27] ---**
The stone door above is gone,
**[10:29] ---**
so we can't go back the same way.
**[10:30] ---**
Let's go.
**[10:31] ---**
We need to find a way out first.
**[10:33] ---**
Alright!
**[10:56] ---**
This place is so bizarre.
**[10:57] ---**
It's so damp and gloomy.
**[10:58] ---**
And it's full of dead animals and plants.
**[11:08] ---**
Wind Master,
**[11:09] ---**
we should hurry up and keep moving.
**[11:17] ---**
Your Highness,
**[11:18] ---**
what is that?
**[11:19] ---**
I don't know,
**[11:20] ---**
but it's definitely not something good.
**[11:48] ---**
Your Highness...
**[11:49] ---**
How do we deal with this?
**[11:51] ---**
If I blow wind in this spot,
**[11:52] ---**
we might not make it out alive.
**[11:54] ---**
Earthworm fear light and heat...
**[11:56] ---**
Wind Master,
**[11:57] ---**
could you lend me some power
**[11:58] ---**
and make the flames in your palm bigger?
**[12:00] ---**
Alright!
**[12:31] ---**
Wind Master.
**[12:32] ---**
The underground airflow is restricted.
**[12:34] ---**
I'm afraid the flames in your
palm won't last much longer.
**[12:37] ---**
If I keep the flames in my palm any longer,
**[12:38] ---**
I'll pass out from the heat!
**[12:40] ---**
Let's use teleportation!
**[12:42] ---**
Okay,
**[12:43] ---**
let me find a flat ground first.
**[12:48] ---**
The stone door?
**[12:51] ---**
Quick, quick, quick!
**[12:52] ---**
Throw the dice and open it!
**[12:56] ---**
My luck...
**[12:57] ---**
Can it get any more absurd?
**[13:00] ---**
It's better if you do it!
**[13:37] ---**
Wind Master,
**[13:38] ---**
are you alright?
**[13:39] ---**
I don't know if I'm alright,
**[13:41] ---**
but Your Highness...
**[13:43] ---**
It's really thrilling
**[13:45] ---**
to work with you.
**[13:47] ---**
I've never fallen so miserably before.
**[13:53] ---**
You've really worked hard.
**[13:55] ---**
Well, you're welcome.
**[14:02] ---**
There's an exit here,
**[14:03] ---**
let's go.
**[14:13] ---**
Where
**[14:15] ---**
are we this time?
**[14:19] ---**
It seems that
**[14:20] ---**
this stone door is like a magical tool
that can teleport over a long distance...
**[14:24] ---**
And throwing different
numbers will teleport us
**[14:25] ---**
to different places.
**[14:28] ---**
It takes a lot of magic power
**[14:30] ---**
to use the long-distance teleportation spell,
**[14:31] ---**
and that Crimson Rain Sought Flower
made a continuous teleportation tool
**[14:34] ---**
to prevent leakage of information.
**[14:37] ---**
The strength of his magic
**[14:39] ---**
and his cunning are evident!
**[14:41] ---**
Rather than saying he is cunning,
**[14:42] ---**
it's more like...
**[14:43] ---**
he’s just mischievous.
**[14:53] ---**
What's happening again?
**[14:56] ---**
Don't panic,
**[14:57] ---**
just stay calm.
**[14:58] ---**
Let's see what's going on first.
**[15:06] ---**
My brother used to tell me
that there are many savages
**[15:08] ---**
in the deep mountains of the south
who eat human flesh for a living!
**[15:12] ---**
Could it be them?!
**[15:13] ---**
Very possible! Anyway,
**[15:15] ---**
let's see if there's another stone door here!
**[15:16] ---**
Let's leave this place first!
**[15:19] ---**
It would be embarrassing for two
heavenly officials to be chased
**[15:22] ---**
and beaten by a group of
mortals if word gets out.
**[15:23] ---**
There are rules for gods to
descend to the mortal realm,
**[15:25] ---**
they must not use their magic power
**[15:28] ---**
to suppress mortal affairs
without authorization.
**[15:30] ---**
and causing trouble.
**[15:31] ---**
I understand!
**[15:43] ---**
Hey...
**[15:45] ---**
You ignorant savages who
have never seen the world,
**[15:49] ---**
it's understandable
**[15:50] ---**
if you don't submit to me, the Wind Master...
**[15:52] ---**
Wind Master.
**[15:52] ---**
but...
**[15:53] ---**
but...
**[15:55] ---**
How dare you mess with my appearance!
**[15:56] ---**
This is absolutely outrageous!!
**[16:07] ---**
Your Highness,
**[16:08] ---**
you saw it too,
**[16:09] ---**
they brought this upon themselves!
**[16:10] ---**
I didn't abuse my magic power!
**[16:12] ---**
Well done,
**[16:13] ---**
I see it too.
**[16:15] ---**
Even my brother wouldn't dare...
**[16:17] ---**
How could you...
**[16:20] ---**
In the past, my luck wasn't always good,
**[16:23] ---**
but it wasn't always bad either.
**[16:25] ---**
Why today...
**[16:26] ---**
Wind Master...
**[16:28] ---**
Sorry,
**[16:29] ---**
I guess I'm jinxing your luck.
**[16:32] ---**
Your Highness,
**[16:33] ---**
what are you talking about!
**[16:35] ---**
How can I have my luck
affected by someone else!
**[16:40] ---**
Let's go, let's go!
**[16:41] ---**
Let's find the stone door?
**[16:50] ---**
See,
**[16:51] ---**
I knew it!
**[16:55] ---**
This time, it's your turn.
**[16:57] ---**
Maybe your San Lang's luck that rubbed
off on you still has a bit left.
**[17:01] ---**
Alright.
**[17:02] ---**
I'll give it a try.
**[17:08] ---**
Why didn't the pattern change this time?
**[17:21] ---**
After all that,
**[17:23] ---**
we haven't made any progress?
**[17:25] ---**
Even if that's the case,
**[17:27] ---**
we can only continue moving forward.
**[17:29] ---**
Alright, alright,
**[17:30] ---**
let's play a little longer
**[17:32] ---**
with that annoying Crimson
Rain Sought Flower!
**[17:46] ---**
Good news,
**[17:47] ---**
Wind Master.
**[17:48] ---**
This isn't the first underground
passage we've walked through.
**[17:50] ---**
That's right,
**[17:52] ---**
when we walked two hundred steps last
time, we encountered a stone wall,
**[17:54] ---**
but now we haven't encountered one.
**[17:56] ---**
Looks like this time
**[17:57] ---**
we got it right.
**[18:03] ---**
There's a smell of blood.
**[18:05] ---**
There are people ahead.
**[18:07] ---**
No comment.
**[18:13] ---**
Wait!
**[18:18] ---**
Is this...
**[18:19] ---**
a dungeon?
**[18:25] ---**
Exactly...
**[18:26] ---**
it's you!
**[18:37] ---**
So, you two know each other?
**[18:39] ---**
I don't know him.
**[18:40] ---**
Is knowing me such a disgraceful thing?
**[18:43] ---**
Oh, come on,
**[18:44] ---**
Ming!
**[18:45] ---**
I'm your best friend!
**[18:46] ---**
I don't have friends who run
around dressed like this.
**[18:51] ---**
Ming?
**[18:52] ---**
Could this person be the Earth Master?
**[18:55] ---**
That's him,
**[18:56] ---**
you've met him before.
**[18:57] ---**
Have I met him?
**[18:59] ---**
You have.
**[19:00] ---**
I haven't.
**[19:02] ---**
You definitely have!
**[19:03] ---**
Last time at the Ban Yue Pass,
**[19:05] ---**
you can't have forgotten so soon, right?
**[19:08] ---**
The Ban Yue Pass...
**[19:09] ---**
have we met?
**[19:19] ---**
That was close,
**[19:21] ---**
so lucky that I managed to hold back,
**[19:22] ---**
no "joint celebration"...
**[19:23] ---**
Earth Master,
**[19:25] ---**
was it you who sent the Heavenly
Dragon's roar for help?
**[19:27] ---**
It was me.
**[19:29] ---**
Now that we've found you,
**[19:31] ---**
let's evacuate quickly.
**[19:32] ---**
Earth Master, your injuries are severe,
**[19:34] ---**
we can talk later.
**[19:35] ---**
Alright.
**[19:54] ---**
Ming,
**[19:56] ---**
didn't you say you were good at fighting?
**[19:59] ---**
When we parted at the Ban
Yue Pass, you were fine,
**[20:01] ---**
but in just a few days,
you ended up like this?
**[20:05] ---**
Ming,
**[20:06] ---**
how did you manage to provoke
the Crimson Rain Sought Flower?
**[20:09] ---**
Tell me about it.
**[20:10] ---**
This kind of banter in your speech...
**[20:12] ---**
you two really are good friends.
**[20:14] ---**
Earth Master,
**[20:15] ---**
I'm actually quite...
**[20:17] ---**
curious...rious...
**[20:32] ---**
We might not make it back
**[20:33] ---**
in time to save Lang Ying.
**[20:38] ---**
Don't come out!
**[20:52] ---**
San Lang?
**[20:53] ---**
Is this the Armory?
**[21:00] ---**
Why is Lang Ying here too.
**[21:07] ---**
Move aside quickly!
**[21:12] ---**
My apologies!
