Immortal Samsara (沉香如屑·沉香重华)

The poison has been suppressed,

but the spirit essence was damaged.

She can't regain her human form for some time.

The array Yandan fell into was unearthly.

It wasn't set by any normal human.

From now on,

we go our separate ways.

I'm taking Yandan with me to get her treated.

No.

Why not?

You came here for your mission.

It has nothing to do with Yandan.

You have no reason to stop me from taking her back.

Yandan's assailant

is likely responsible for the anomaly in the palace.

Many women in the Royal Capital are missing.

Everyone fears for their life.

People aren't leaving their homes.

Perhaps that was when Yandan was targeted.

Spare me your theories.

Your duty is to capture spirits.

My duty

is to keep Yandan safe.

As for the assailant's identity,

it doesn't really

matter to me.

I believe

the hot spring of Yelan Mountain

can help her recover.

I got into this mess because I wanted

to stay away from your quarrels.

I was reduced to my original form.

And now, you're at it again!

Please, work together for once.

Yumo.

We left the mountain to carry out a good deed every day.

If evil spirits are tarnishing our good name,

we must stop them.

Show them who's the King of All Spirits.

Prove yourself to the Lingxiao Sect.

Find out who's behind all of this.

Besides,

if we get to the bottom of this mystery,

I can use it

for my book "A Mortal's Life."

Not only will it be entertaining,

it also serves as advice.

What about you?

Relax.

I know well enough about my spirit essence.

I'll be fine.

Besides,

experiencing mortal coils

to write inspiring and touching stories

is my ambition.

Stop hesitating.

I believe

with our combined wits and ideas,

we can find the culprit.

Then, I'll be able to remove this poison.

You're the King of All Spirits.

Surely you're wiser than a lotus spirit.

I'm only willing to overlook this

for Yandan's sake.

I'm going after the evil spirit.

Don't get in my way.

The evil spirit is in the palace.

Spirit Catchers, we need your assistance now!

Jiangchen!

That's right.

I killed those women!

This is all my fault.

Vile spirit!

How dare you

bewitch His Lordship

and harm innocent lives!

I will cleanse this palace of your evil

for the good of the people!

Jiangchen!

Your Lordship, stay back!

Her spiritual power hasn't been depleted.

Do not come any closer!

She is full of grudge,

she might harm you!

Jiangchen?

Pei Luo...

I...

I wish I could turn back time...

to the day where we first met.

You are just as frail and delicate.

You are alone in this world, too.

We share a lot in common.

Would you

let me keep you company?

Umbrella for sale!

Buy your umbrella here!

Sir,

check out the umbrellas.

That is a nice one.

Sir,

I'll buy this umbrella.

Is this yours?

You have my thanks.

Who'd have thought

this is how it all ends?

But I regret nothing.

I'll always remember that umbrella.

But from now on,

no one will be there to hold an umbrella for you in the rain.

Take care of yourself.

Pei Luo.

Could you hold me in your arms one last time?

If I can die in your arms,

I shall have no regret.

Your Lordship.

Your Lordship ordered to have this monster slain.

She must hold a grudge against you.

Do not fall for her deceptive words.

Jiangchen.

All the memories we share

shall forever remain in my heart.

I will never forget that.

But you've committed great sins

and left me with no choice.

Please do not resent me for this.

"The sky above and the depths below,

the heart lingers as tears run dry,

this is the end, love of mine."

Your Lordship.

Her spirit essence has been crushed.

She will perish soon.

The immense aura of the grudge she gives off

might infect your body.

Please leave the vicinity.

Your Lordship.

He is right.

We will alleviate her grudge.

Miss Jiangchen.

Jiangchen!

Miss Jiangchen.

You had the Other Eye,

so what happened to you?

The flower spirit

Yumo can't seem to forget

is actually Jiangchen.

Sorry.

The Other Eye...

Miss Jiangchen...

Jiangchen!

Jiangchen!

You promised me

when I finished the script,

you'd be the actress in my play.

I've held on to my end of the promise.

I've just completed the prologue,

but you broke your promise.

Jiangchen!

Who would have thought?

The frail prince Jiangchen fell in love with

is now the Lord of Andu.

The flower spirits are always true to their nature.

They would never harm anyone.

I secretly

examined her spirit essence.

She was completely depleted of her spiritual power.

Judging by that,

the anomalies in the palace

weren't her doings after all.

In that case,

why did those Spirit Catchers still act like they were?

Why go through the trouble to set up a massive spirit-trapping array?

Evil spirits always work in shadows

so the anomalies don't trace back to them.

I recognized Jiangchen's spells.

She wasn't the one who hurt me.

Jiangchen was a close friend.

We must figure out a way to clear her name.

Taoist Tang.

Your mission here is to capture evil spirits.

Jiangchen is now dead

and she wasn't your friend or anything.

You should get

your reward and leave

as soon as possible.

The blooming of epiphyllum is transient.

But the epiphyllums in the palace are always blooming.

The flowers are catalyzed by spiritual power

to ward off evil spirits.

Therefore,

as long as the real culprit is here,

I can't leave.

But you are a spirit catcher,

why would you sympathize with a spirit?

Some spirits are kind.

If Jiangchen wasn't the culprit,

we shouldn't let her die wronged.

You are both very kind.

Why must you fight each other?

Yumo.

Yumo!
