Love and Destiny (宸汐缘)

Are you going to eat me?

I am not tasty. I...am not tasty!

Why are you still being fierce? You still think you're awesome?

Let me tell you that you used to be this big!

But now you're just this small!

Senior Deity, what are you doing?

This beast committed a grave crime and endangered the mortals.

He should be locked in the Demon Tower to reflect on his actions.

Isn't it just being gluttonous?

It had no intention of doing evil and endangering the humans.

But it won't be specially have you calling it away every time it causes havoc?

But my father said...

My father said the eyes of ancient mythical beasts will turn red

and their faces become fierce, if they are tainted with blood from innocent killings.

Look, look at its visage.

It's very clear. At most, it's just mischievous. It didn't kill anyone.

I can opt to not lock it in the Demon Tower, but you can't raise it.

Why?

That is a Bai Ze , an ancient fierce mythical beast. (T/N "White Marsh", said to have dictated a book to the Yellow Emperor on preventing haunting by the supernatural beasts and beings, fragments of which survived)

Mortals use its image to drive away and avoid demons. Currently, it's still a young beast.

Once it grows up, with your magical power, you won't be able to control it.

It resembles Xiaobai.

From it jumping into your circle,

from the first time I saw it,

I feel as though it is Xiaobai.

Thank you, Senior Deity!

Senior Deity! Senior Deity! I surely will take good care of it.

I will also discipline it well. I won't let it cause trouble.

Senior Deity, where are we going?

Beyond that area is Dark Capital Mountain.

Dark Capital Mountain? Oh, I know that place.

That's the place where the great Battle of Gods and Demons took place.

I frequently hear people talk about that great battle that was the focus of attention of the entire Six Realms fifty thousand years ago.

But I don't know what's there?

Senior Deity, you know, right? Tell me about it.

You're curious?

I'll take you there to look.

Senior Deity, why are you looking at me that way?

Nothing.

Where's Bai Ze? Where did it go?

Where did this little devil beast come from? It dares trespass into Shanling Tribe Territory?

Informing State Master, our scouts spotted the God of War at our border.

Why did he come here?

This... I still do not know the details.

State Master, God of War enjoys a revered status in the Heavenly Palace.

Should we go ask for instructions?

Of course. But High God Yunfeng has just left.

What could be the reason for God of War to come here?

God of War.

God of War, long time no see.

State Master Lingyue.

The last time we met was tens of thousands years ago. You still are as dashing as ever.

Really never thought we would meet once again.

Thank you, Lady, for remembering me.

A few days ago, High God Yunfeng was just here.

He told me about Zhonghao's resurrection.

This is a matter of my Shanling Tribe,

yet we still let it bother you. I am embarrassed.

The Shanling Tribe and my Heavenly Race are of one body. This is just appropriate.

I heard you contracted a cold disease when you were at Immortal Sea.

Are you better now?

My tribe has a sacred medicine for dispelling cold, the "Good Fire Pellet".

You can only create one in a hundred years.

Later, I'll have someone prepare a box to be gifted to you.

How can I bear to accept such a rare treasure?

Please don't be so formal, God of War.

You had a small misunderstanding with my soldiers at our border.

I was even agonizing over how to express an apology.

If this medicine will be beneficial to you, the it is its good fortune.

Since that is the case,

I thank you for your kindness, Lady.

This one... must be a female official who has accompanied you down here?

This female official has a kind face.

What is her name? How old is she?

Replying to State Master, my name is Ling Xi. I'm exactly fifty thousand years old.

Fifty thousand years...

You are fifty thousand years old?

State Master.

Don't remain standing, please be seated.

Please.

God of War, have some tea.

Do you know how long are you going to stay here?

Is this an official trip?

Just coming down the lower realm to stroll around.

That's very good. My Shanling Tribe's territory has very good landscapes.

You must frequently tour them.

I will surely do so.

Immortal Miss, you are a very adorable girl.

May I ask from what tribe you are from?

Grandmother , I am from the Dan Bird Tribe. (T/N polite address for an elder stranger)

Dan Bird Tribe?

That's good. That's good.

They have red heads and are pretty like pearls and jade. Very quick-witted youngsters. (T/N as phoenix birds, original form)

May I ask who you grew up with?

I grew up with my father.

Father? You have a father?

I... have a father.

I also have an older sister and a younger brother.

Okay.

Thank you for your hospitality, State Master. I won't disturb you any longer.

Okay. God of War, take your rest for now.

Tonight I will host a banquet to entertain you, as part of my duty of being the local host.

Please do attend.

State Master.

I am fine.

How could there be such a coincidental thing in this world?

It was I who held illusions.

Let's just slowly look for her. As long as she's alive,

you two will meet one day.

I hope so.

Your Highness the Princess.

State Preceptor, I have something to report.

Say it.

God of War suddenly visited our Shanling Tribe.

- God of War? - Yes.

What's happening now?

State Master has already welcomed God of War in the main hall.

I heard she even ordered people to set up a banquet tonight to welcome him.

It's just that...

Baoqing.

What is it, Brother Jingxiu?

Why are you still not going back to dress yourself up?

Why should I dress up?

Didn't you hear Chibi say

that your mother is setting up a banquet tonight for the God of War?

God of War? What's the big deal?

Banquets are very lively events. There will be a lot of rare treasures.

Since I was little, I followed you.

What in the Six Realms have I not yet seen? I'm not interested.

I'm fine just following you, Brother Jingxiu.

Oh right. With Mother setting up a banquet, you surely will attend, right?

I had a new skirt made with South Sea pearls mounted on it.

When you walk, you shimmer. So pretty!

No. No. I must quickly go back and put it on then, show it to you and Mother!

Brother Jingxiu, see you tonight.

Go now.

State Master is holding a banquet and informed all officials,

but she did not send an invitation to you?

State Preceptor, are we still going?

- Jiuchen is the only guest? - Yes.

Oh, wrong. There's still another minor immortal from Fuyun Hall.

- Minor immortal? - Yes.

State Master seems to like her a lot, and even bestowed some gifts to her.

She's from the Dan Bird Tribe.

Minor immortal?

I'm not giving it.

Fine.

Senior Deity. Let's give it a name.

It must be easy to call and pleasing to hear.

And it must be cute?

How about "Wuwan"?

"Wuwan"?

Because it can really eat. It consumes at least five bowls every meal!

As long as you like it.

Wuwan. Does it sound nice?

Senior Deity, will the banquet today be fun?

A lot of the tribal elders will be coming tonight.

It sounds fun then.

If you don't like lively events, then stay in the room.

Who said I don't like them? I love lively events the most.

Then stay by my side, and don't venture far from me.

Senior Deity, after the banquet, can I go to the streets to wander around?

What did I just tell you?

Stay by your side. Never venturing off.

S-Senior Deity.

Wuwan is missing. I'll go look for him.

No.

What if it gets lost?

Why is Brother Jingxiu still not here?

Didn't we agree to meet tonight?

Mother!

I don't feel well and want to take my leave first.

Qing'er, what's wrong?

Do you need me to summon the witch doctor to check you?

No need. I just need to rest.

State Master, I'll take my leave for a while.

I've prepared the Good Fire Pellets.

Thank you, State Master.

Sister, have you seen a little beast?

It's like a little white dog, about this big?

I haven't seen it. Could it have gone to the garden?

Is it that way?

Thanks.

Catch it! Hurry! Catch it!

Beast, you dare to bite me?

Who told you to run? Who told you to run?

Catch him!

Wuwan!

Wuwan!

- Who told you to run? - Don't let him escape.

Can't run anymore?

Quickly get it off me!

Princess, are you alright?

Hurry!

Who's there!

There's someone over there! After her!

Hurry and chase her!

After her!
