The Longest Promise (玉骨遥)

Princess,

look at the thing you've been longing for.

This is known as Mingyue Silk,

the greatest treasure of the Merfolk Clan.

It's gorgeous.

I can use this

to bid farewell to old friends.

Though there's no

Primordial Spirit-Gathering Spell in the world.

I'll still continue to practise magic spell.

To travel around the world

and protect the important person

like Yuan.

Thank you, Princess.

What about me, Princess?

You certainly are

an important person to me.

Just that I'll need you to send

this thing to Jiuyi Mountain now.

Yes.

I'll excuse myself.

Get some rest, Princess.

Okay.

I've found something strange in Jiuyi Mountain

for the past few days.

That day when I had just reached the mountain,

I found an immortal official

that I've never met before.

It's odd.

Why would the High Priest of Grand Preceptor

make you embarrassed

in front of the kings

because of a mere immortal official?

There must be something fishy.

Rumor has it, when the High Priest of Grand Preceptor was young,

he was madly in love with Bai Yan.

If it wasn't because Bai Yan insisted

on marrying Emperor Beimian,

the High Priest of Grand Preceptor wouldn't have

hidden in Jiuyi Mountain.

Let's say the High Priest of Grand Preceptor insisted

on helping them in secret.

He faked Shi Ying's death and took him away.

I think it's completely possible.

But if Shi Ying is still alive,

doesn't it mean he and the High Priest of Grand Preceptor

have committed the crime of defrauding the Emperor?

The Emperor is inscrutable and it's been a long time.

Who knows Emperor Beimian's stance

on the incident.

We won't know if he has gotten suspicious.

Brother.

This is the reason why

I would collude with Ice Clan.

You and I got to have something up our sleeves.

So,

we must not let the Emperor know

that the person is still alive.

And we have to eradicate

the loose ends for Yu as soon as possible.

But,

isn't that person very skillful?

If the High Priest of Grand Preceptor joins hands with him,

I'm afraid we won't be able

to succeed easily.

It looks like

we still need to wait.

Now, we have to win over the Six Clans.

Just that the Crimson King is too unctuous.

Even now,

he still wants to keep himself out of the disputes.

I've got to make him suffer a bit.

(Since His Highness Shi Yu is in love with Xueying,)

you and I should make a plan for Xueying.

This is for the overall interests of White Clan.

If you make trouble again,

you'll end up like your mother.

Princess.

Consort Qing is actually looking for you.

Consort Qing.

(I'll wait for you with tea in Qingyun Palace)

Princess Xuelu is here.

Greetings to you, Your Highness.

Please take a seat.

I dare not sit with you, Your Highness.

You don't have to be so polite.

You're a clever girl.

I'm a direct person.

So I won't beat around the bush.

Let me ask you something.

Do you want to marry Yu?

You have a discerning eye.

My feelings for him are obvious.

So I dare not hide it.

Indeed.

I like you more than your younger sister.

Whether your relationship with Yu

will be further developed,

it's all up to me.

However,

it depends on your performance.

I'll be at your disposal.

I wonder if there's any interesting news

on your trip to Jiuyi Mountain

that you want to tell me.

The Star-gazing Ceremony was held once in ten years.

It's gotten my mind blown

and broadened my horizon.

I wonder what you'd like to know.

Did you go to the Emperor Valley?

I've always admired Emperor Xingzun

so I was going to his tomb to worship him.

Unexpectedly, I passed out

before I entered the valley.

Perhaps there was someone

in the Emperor Valley

who didn't want a mortal like me to go near there.

From that day on,

Princess has been wearing the earrings that Madam left.

This time, Consort Qing bestowed on you

the earrings which are made with the finest Warm White Jade.

Your effort is indeed paid off.

Let me put them on for you.

It's not necessary.

Since Her Highness appreciates your ability,

what are you going to do next?

Why don't you replace Xueying

at one sitting?

She doesn't appreciate me.

Obviously, she's trying to use me.

But,

I've confirmed a thing.

That the person in the Emperor Valley

is indeed the focus of all attention.

I passed out in the Emperor Valley for no reason.

That day, the High Priest of Grand Preceptor got cagey

when he talked about this person.

Even Consort Qing cares about it now.

I guess there's only one person

that can be so notable.

Just because I've got nobody.

So they don't have to pay the price

even when they offend me.

Anyone can use me and trample me.

I don't care who this person is.

I'll risk everything to approach him.

To get the leverage for myself to enter the play.

I won't let anyone trample me again.

Mother.

It hurts.

Be gentle.

- Don't move. - Father.

It's only been several months since you left home.

Why are you hurt so badly?

There's no war in Western Huang lately.

His Majesty commanded me

to lead the army and practise

with Qing Gang's Shadow Warrior.

Qing Gang is the best

among the young officials of the Six Ministries.

Each of his Shadow Warriors

is good at individual combat.

I'm getting old.

I'm no longer a match for him.

Azure King must've...

Azure King?

What's wrong with him?

It doesn't matter.

It's common to get some injury

at the parade ground.

Qing Gang didn't respect the elder at all.

Didn't he know how to show leniency?

It's not his fault.

We should do our best on the battlefield.

It hurts.

Yan,

Ying has finally become 18 today.

We don't have to worry

about that cursed lady anymore.

Soon, he'll be able to take in disciples.

When his cultivation base reaches the real state,

he'll be able to return to the world.

To seek justice for you.

Come in.

Your Supreme Majesty.

Ying,

today is your birthday.

And it's the day when your curse is lifted.

I've prepared a gift

for your coming-of-age ceremony.

(Priest of Grand Preceptor, Jiuyi Mountain)

I'll choose an auspicious day

to hold your coronation ceremony.

From now on, you are

the Priest of Jiuyi Mountain.

Thanks for your appreciation, Your Supreme Majesty.
