Novoland: The Castle In the Sky

Episode 25 -

As long as it's during the wedding, her blood is dropped onto the Star Flower Deity Amulet

and the God of Shooting Stars gets to be successfully summoned, then that's a success.

So Fu Ling and I are the reincarnations of the God of Shooting Stars Flower and her lover.

That's why, although I didn't have wing pores, I was still able to grow wings.

No. I can't just watch Fu Ling turn into ash.

I definitely can't.

I never thought that I'd be able to return to this place alive.

What is this?

This is Sky City, my mother's lifetime of painstaking work.

It was also the entire future of the Humankind clan.

But in the end, it got destroyed in one huge fire.

Then that's too bad.

It isn't. I'm going to restore it.

Gao Lao, do you have a way?

I do. But to restore this...

it would at least take 8 to 10 years.

That will be too late. The God of Shooting Stars will soon appear

and Sky City depends on the abundant Shooting Stars Pollen that will form the moment the God of Shooting Stars appears.

Or we must wait another 100 years for the next God of Shooting Stars to awaken.

I can't wait that long.

Shuang City also won't be able to wait that long.

Then we can only find Sky City's

first ever designer, Ji Shu.

Ji Shu?

Gao Lao, the one that you're stepping on right now

might be Ji Shu's ashes.

Ji Shu is dead?

Then it looks like this trip was for nothing.

Not really. I still know someone who is Ji Shu's disciple.

Qi Luo Lin, starting today, search everywhere for Yu Huan Zhen.

Yes.

I have one thing that I don't know if I should say it or not.

Commanding General, just say it.

Your Majesty, why must we restore Sky City?

You must know that you've just ascended the throne and so many things are waiting for you to be done.

You should focus all your strength in rehabilitating our country and not waste it--

Shut up! When was it your turn to question the decisions made by His Majesty?

When the Commanding General is talking, you're not allowed to interfere.

Commanding General, you should know that the Humankind can never reach the sky that we all long to reach.

The only thing we can do is to get near it.

And what the Sky City is going to give us is

the limitless chance of reaching that dream.

Really so beautiful!

But... based on our Humankind practices,

the soon to be newlyweds shouldn't see each other on the eve of their wedding.

This is Wingkind territory.

I just want you to see this in advance.

What is that?

He's called Bai Ze.

It's a unicorn with no horn.

Royal Mother gave me this when I was little.

Why does he lack a horn?

The reason my Royal Mother gave me a unicorn was to tell me

that if one day, I learned that I was different from others,

there was no need for me to feel sad or inferior.

I used to like Bai Ze a lot before.

Until one day, I overheard Royal Father and Royal Mother

discussing me having no wing pores.

And then in my anger, I destroyed Bai Ze's horn.

I didn't want to be different from others. I just wanted to be the same as everyone else.

Tian Yi...

Stinky Girl, do you still remember the question you asked me

on the day that we reconciled?

Then what if that night, there was no Cong Ling,

what would you have chosen?

I said before that I didn't want to know the answer to that question forever.

What I want to tell you is that I've already found the answer to that question.

I'm willing to be a one of a kind Wingkind Emperor... for you.

Just like this unicorn Bai Ze,

different from everyone else. No matter what situation we will face in the future,

even if mountain ranges turn upside down or the world ends,

I would rather be spat on and cursed by thousands of people, but I will still protect you.

Are you stupid? Why would it ever be that serious?

That's right. I also hope that mountain ranges will never

turned upside down nor the world ended.

I just hope that we can peacefully and happily get through this lifetime.

What's wrong with you today?

You feel weird.

No matter what happens, I will protect you.

I won't give you the chance to protect me.

because we will be very blissful together,

until we're 70 or 80 years old.

Maybe by that time, all our teeth have fallen out.

Right, can you give this to me?

Of course. You look so good when you smile.

Then I'm not going to smile. You say it looks good now,

but I'm afraid you'll be annoyed seeing it in the future.

Tomorrow is the wedding day.

I really hope my dad can come.

I actually hope he doesn't come.

What?!

Nothing, I'm actually joking.

Seeing such a good daughter about to marry someone,

I'm afraid he'll be heartbroken and sad.

Smooth talker.

Actually, there is also someone else I wish would come.

You're talking about Bai Ting Jun?

I've already sent someone to give the wedding invitation to him in Shuang City.

It's just that he's recently ascended the throne. I'm not sure if he can find the time.

I actually can't face him.

Let's not talk about this now, alright?

Woman. - Yes.

I like seeing you smile.

Can you give me another smile?

I'm not smiling.

Are you smiling or not?

Just smile.

Stop fooling around.

I'll fool around.

Then you smile, too... Go away... Go away.

I'll keep fooling around.

Woman, I'm just afraid that from now on

I won't be able to see your sweet smile like this.

Tian Yi.

General Xiong. - Well?

It won't work. Luo Lin won't release them.

What does that Qi Luo Lin want to do?

Those people he's captured are only lower level disciples of Stars Court.

How would they know where Yu Huan Zheng is.

As I see it, Qi Luo Lin only wants to abuse his public powers to avenge personal matters.

He just wants to use this chance to take revenge on the Stars Court that expelled him.

In fact, Luo Lin has changed a lot this time since he returned.

The friends that came back with him are each a vicious lot.

In order to track down and arrest Yu Huan Zheng, he's killed a lot of innocent people.

It's not only Qi Luo Lin who has changed. Even His Majesty...

His Majesty use to be so tender and kind hearted.

But right now, he just persists with the Sky City plan

and is focused on attacking the South Yudu City. His Majesty ascended the throne from a deposed Crown Prince status.

So the court ministers had a lot of criticisms, to begin with.

If this continues, I'm afraid that the people will think of revolting.

But we don't have any other way.

Although my position is above Luo Lin's,

His Majesty only trusts Loulin now.

Also, we don't know where that Tian Yazi came from.

About this Tian Yazi, I did hear some things about him.

I heard that he was expelled from the Heaven's Secret Sect for cultivating demonic martial arts.

Afterwards, he attempted to assassinate the son of the sect leader.

In the end, he failed and went missing.

But... how did he get together with His Majesty?

No. I must go and persuade His Majesty.

Teacher said that I was a natural-born reversed-bone (traitor).

But Senior Brother's skull has nothing special about it.

Kid, thank you for your help.

State Teacher, you've said it too seriously. If not for you,

I wouldn't be the present Humankind King.

I just saw that your life was too hard.

I also had some fate with that girl, Bi Anhua.

If not for her, I would have already died here in this royal palace.

I wouldn't be experiencing this splendor now, would I?

It surely shows that the wheel of fortune does turn.

Doesn't it, Senior Brother?

Informing Your Majesty, General Xiong is requesting an audience!

That little girl is always so fierce.

I don't like her. I'll go now.

Respectfully greeting Your Majesty.

For what matter is Commanding General requesting an audience?

May Your Majesty immediately stop the arrest of Yu Huan Zheng

and remove Qi Luo Lin and his evil associates from their duties.

Evil associates? How come I never knew

that Commanding General had such strong concept of seniority?

Your Majesty, you've misunderstood. If Gao Lao and the others were asked to do benevolent matters,

I definitely would not bother about their family backgrounds.

But the truth is, they are using the reason of catching Yu Huan Zheng

to kill innocent people and acting recklessly.

It's really very shameful.

Is it that grave?

Using all means to achieve one's goal.

Could it be that Commanding General, when you were still working for my Queen Mother,

you never drew fresh blood?

But Your Majesty, just for a Yu Huan Zheng,

you've angered the Stars Court. It's really not worth it.

I've already told you, only Yu Huan Zheng will be able to restore the Sky City.

For that, I won't mind paying any price.

And then will Your Majesty start a war with the Wingkind afterwards?

Forgive me for being straight. Your Majesty was never a person who would engage in wars of aggression at will in the past.

Queen Mother always hoped that I could be devoted to the world and be the supreme ruler of the Lan Continent.

And right now, I've mended my old ways and followed her wishes!

Commanding General Xiong, as her tusted aide, aren't you supposed to be happy for me?!

But the present is different from the past.

What's the difference?

In the past, the Queen wanted to attack the Wingkind

for the sake of Shuang City and for the Lan Continent.

But right now, Your Majesty wants to start a war with the Wingkind just for one Yi Fu Ling.

I'm not allowing you to mention her name!

I just don't want the kingdom that the Queen left

to be destroyed by a bunch of lowly humans.

What? Lowly humans?

You're saying that they are lowly humans,

because they are deaf, cripple, weird-looking, and mute.

Then what about me? What am I?

Are you also looking down on me?

Looking down on this freak?!

I definitely don't mean it that way.

I'm willing to use my life to prove my loyalty.

I beg Your Majesty to take back your order and prioritize your effort on the lives of the citizens of Shuang City.

Die then.

Even if you are quite pretty, you shouldn't be talking rubbish.

Especially to us people who have lived in darkness for so long.
