The Longest Promise (玉骨遥)

We followed your orders

and haven't sent any

of Second Young Lady's letters

to Jiuyi Mountain.

We withhold them all.

Well done.

As usual,

come back tomorrow at this time to collect the letters.

Yes.

(that on the south side of Jiuyi Mountain,)

(there is a place called Nvluo Creek where Nvluo plants grow.)

The favored consorts in the palace use it

to maintain their beauty.

It's a panacea that helps hair grow and revitalizes the skin.

Lord Chong Ming!

Lord Chong Ming!

Lord Chong Ming!

Lord...

Lord Chong Ming?

Lord Chong Ming,

how did you become one with this tree?

Let me see.

You actually

look quite cute like this.

Lord Chong Ming,

shouldn't you eat something?

Starvation is a minor issue.

But disfigurement is a major concern.

Look at my current state.

Even if I starve to death,

I can't be seen like this.

Lord Chong Ming,

you've endured the Flaming Heaven Punishment

for several days.

You really should eat something.

I, Zhu Yan, swear

that no matter how you turn into,

you'll always be the most beautiful bird.

Just a bird?

Oh, no.

I mean, in my heart,

even in human form,

you're the most handsome young man,

other than my master.

Are you going to keep your word?

Are you really not going to laugh at me?

Of course.

Now, you should

come over and eat something

and have some fish soup to enhance beauty and youthfulness.

It smells so good.

The fish soup that has been simmering for four hours

is truly a heavenly delicacy,

the ultimate beauty and skincare elixir.

Give it to me.

Be careful, slow down.

As long as mythical creatures

like us on Jiuyi Mountain are alive,

we'll continuously face tribulations again and again.

A great tribulation once every thousand years

and a minor tribulation once every hundred years.

I've experienced

minor tribulations like this a hundred times.

The heavenly tribulations like this

will be over in less than a quarter of an hour.

What annoyed me the most

is this raging fire would always ravage

my beautiful feathers.

It makes me livid.

A mere quarter of an hour of tribulations

takes half a year to recover.

Slow down.

(The favored consorts in the palace use this)

(It's a panacea that helps hair grow and revitalizes the skin.)

(Surely this item can also restore Chong Ming's)

Is it not enough?

I'll get make some more for you.

I'll have another one.

No, no.

Give me another two.

Who are you?

Summon the Priest of Grand Preceptor to rescue you.

It turns out you're after my master.

You can forget about using me as bait.

Even if I die here,

I won't let my master come.

Priest of Grand Preceptor.

Get out of the way.

No matter how grave the matter is,

you must not leave this place.

If you can break through to the real state,

you'll ascend in one step.

If you halt your cultivation progress,

you'll fail

with no chance to try again.

Besides, your current cultivation

is insufficient compared to the usual standard.

How will you escape from a formidable enemy?

Knowing someone is in distress and not helping.

Even if one breaks through to the real state,

it's against one's conscience.

With just you,

do you think you can stop me?

Since you refuse to cooperate,

using your dead body to meet him

will be just the same.

You're the ones who will die!

Master?

You shouldn't have come here.

Ice Clan?

First, you attacked the Emperor's Valley.

And now you lured me here.

What do you intend to do?

So you were the Immortal Official

at the Emperor's Valley back then.

If only I had killed you earlier.

Kill me?

Just several days ago, the Azure Clan

also sent people to kill me.

Could it be that you're colluding

with the Azure Clan from the beginning?

You're about to die.

Don't waste time trying to probe.

Considering that you're about to reach the real state,

the Ice Clan cannot let you live.

Soon?

I'll let you witness

the magic techniques of the real state.

Her time of birth aligns with the frigid winter month.

Her birthplace aligns with the brightest crimson place.

What was recorded in the Elixir Book

of the dance ritual back then

was her official birth date.

According to Zhu Yan's actual birth date,

she's the cursed lady.

Your Supreme Majesty,

the Ice Clan has taken Zhu Yan hostage.

The Priest disregarding everything,

went to Nvluo Creek.

Follow me!

Hurry!

Master,

have you broken through the stage?

Not yet.

It's because of me again, isn't it?

No.

It's because of me

that you're in danger.

They are targeting me.

Hurry back to Jiuyi Mountain

and seek help from the High Priest.

But...

Go quickly.

All right.

Priest of Grand Preceptor of Kongsang,

today is the day you die.

Yan'er!

Yan'er, watch out!

Yan'er!

Master!

He's already at his weakest.

He's just bluffing.

Master.

Master, with Gong Shang here,

we'll be fine.

Celestial Assault!

(Fortunately, Yuan taught me the Fushui Spell.)

When the Emperor's Blood is in peril,

the Ring of Houtu will emerge.

Indeed, the three Sorcerers

did not disappoint me.
