Immortal Samsara (沉香如屑·沉香重华)

Search this place.

Fairy Yingdeng.

You secretly used the parfum Lovesick

in an attempt to seduce His Majesty.

Now that we have the evidence,

what do you have to say in your defense?

Come and have a look!

The latest play of Huanxi Troupe,

Rendezvous by Pear Garden

will premiere today.

Come and watch it.

-Come and watch it. -Let's go.

Let's check it out.

Young Master Wang.

This way, please.

Official Zhang.

Official Zhang.

-Come inside. -Okay.

Thank you for coming.

Thank you for coming.

-Nice! -Bravo!

-Great. -Nice!

Bravo!

Marvelous.

Today's performance is very good.

The best so far

from Huanxi Troupe, I daresay.

Indeed.

I wonder who the scriptwriter is.

I wrote this play.

I wrote it.

-Move. -Let go of me!

You stole His Majesty's jade hook.

I want to talk to His Supreme Majesty!

You concocted the forbidden perfume.

We have the evidence.

There can be no mistake.

Move!

Let me go.

Greetings, Curator of Magical Pavilion.

I'm here to see her off.

Can you give us some privacy?

You planned everything

for this day

for you to rise in the ranks.

How

cunning of you.

The truth regarding the collusion of the deityship official with other parties

as well as his forgery of Night Forgetting River's registration book

has been made public.

He is to receive 49 thunder strikes.

Before his title was revoked,

the last amendment he made to the deityship record

concerns your future.

The Pool of Eight Hardships.

If the water is clear, it means you can continue your deityship

and you'll go through the trials in order to obtain greater wisdom.

If the water is murky, it means your immortal body will be destroyed

and you will be demoted to be a mortal.

His Supreme Majesty decided

that your deityship should be revoked

and your memory should be erased.

You will be demoted into the Mortal Realm

and you will never be a deity again.

His Majesty is just down there to go through the mortal trials.

He will return one day.

But you?

You can never come back.

You'll go through the pain

of being a mortal in the Mortal Realm.

I accept my defeat.

Just do whatever you want.

I regret nothing.

However I punish you now,

Yandan

will never come back.

What did you make me eat?

Memory-Retaining Pill.

I want you to remember you were once a fairy

so that you'll live with shame in the Mortal Realm.

I'm sure for the self-important Fairy Yingdeng,

this is a fate worse than death.

You...

For the pain you inflicted on Yandan,

I will return it to you

a hundred or thousandfold.

Come out now.

Yandan.

I have done it.

I have avenged you.

So you asked me

to say those words when Yingdeng

submitted the artifact

for this exact purpose.

Yandan

is actually alive.

I didn't tell you

because I was mad at you.

His Majesty saved her

and sent her to the Mortal Realm.

Yandan

became a mortal?

His Majesty got Yandan out of the Night Forgetting River by force.

Although her immortal spirit was gone,

she could turn into a spirit.

She must be living as a free flower spirit now.

Yandan once told me

that she could never forgive you

because you were the closest person to her.

However, she still hoped that you could overcome your inner demon.

In her eyes,

you have always been the stronger one.

Zhixi.

Live well.

Yandan

never stopped hoping

that one day, you could live

for yourself.

All right?

Why are you frowning?

Rendezvous by Pear Garden has been played ten times consecutively.

And we've had a full house every time.

Troupe Leader asked me to stay here

to compose the next play.

I

might have no idea where I come from

but I know what I want.

I absolutely love writing plays.

My goal is to rise to fame as the best scriptwriter

in the world.

While my ambition is bold,

my inspiration cannot keep up with it.

I cannot think of

or write anything.

You're a talented writer,

but the emotions of your characters are very frigid.

Rendezvous by Pear Garden can move people

because it is inspired by the author's own experience.

You're still young

with limited experience

so you don't how complicated humans can be.

Without going through the same experience,

naturally, you can't produce a good story.

Jiangchen.

Can you tell me what I should do?

The nuanced feelings everyone has here

cannot be put into words.

You have to experience it on your own.

No one can describe it to you.

You have to travel a lot

and go through many things.

Only by tasting the sweet and the sour,

the joy and the sorrow

can you view life as it is

and find yourself in it.

You'll then know what it truly means to love and let go.

And then,

you'll write a gut-wrenching,

tear-jerking story.

The sweet

and the sour.

The joy

and the sorrow.

Let's go.

Per your request, Mountain Chief,

we have recalled

all tribes that were expelled and bullied

by Qiuxi.

We have also allotted their food quota and living quarter

based on each tribe's population.

Most tribes are happy to oblige,

except for the tiger tribe who has always

prided themselves as the head of all spirits.

They want more territory.

In your opinion...

In my opinion,

sure.

In my opinion,

now that we have new leaders of Yelan Mountain,

the rules here have changed,

We steer away from distributing our resources based on tribal strength

so that weaker tribes will not feel sidelined.

Tell the tiger tribe

that if they have any issues,

feel free to ask for a duel.

If they

can win against Zilin or me,

I'll entertain their request.

I agree with Yumo.

When we were trying to kill Qiuxi,

they were nowhere to be seen.

And now, they demand more territory.

Noted.

Any news?

Whether it's us, the avian spirits,

or the aquatic clan members you sent out,

we got nothing so far.

I know you are looking everywhere for her.

Can you give us more information?
