NAMES ARE THE SHORTEST SPELLS IN THE WORLD
Master, I still can't cast the Protection Spell.
Qingming.
In this world, is there someone you would protect with your life?
My mother.
Then think about her.
Again.
Again.
Again.
Again, Qingming.
Qingming, leave me.
-Don't let the fox demon's son get away. -Run!
-Get him. -Mother!
Mother!
Why did you stop?
Master.
Can I stop learning
the Protection Spell?
You can't only attack and not know how to defend.
Master.
Try me.
Master.
Isn't it the same if I can just teleport?
When I'm under attack, I can just move.
As long as I can defeat my enemies,
I can protect myself.
That's just a shortcut.
It will not work against someone very powerful.
Even though you are my most gifted disciple,
the Protection Spell is the most basic and most powerful move of a Yin-Yang Master.
You can't become a true Yin-Yang Master without learning it.
Qingming.
In this world, is there someone you would protect with your life?
Do you?
Yes.
SNOW HOUND, GOLD SPIRIT, MAD PAINTER
MAD PAINTER
With my blood, I'll command the spirits.
Snow Hound.
Gold Spirit.
Mad Painter.
-Incarnated. -Incarnated.
Must protect...
The Protection Spell!
Master!
It's my honor to serve you. I have no regret.
Master.
Is there really no cure
for the Evil Serpent's poison?
The Evil Serpent is the evilest creature that has existed
since the beginning of heaven and earth.
It feeds on the world's obsessions and greed.
As long as desire burns in the world,
the Evil Serpent will not be extinguished.
There is no cure for its poison.
But didn't the Gold Spirit
sacrifice his life to kill the Evil Serpent?
That was only the Evil Serpent's shadow.
Its body is immortal
and cannot be destroyed.
Where's the Evil Serpent's body?
In Imperial City.
Someone used their body as a vessel
to contain the Evil Serpent.
300 years ago,
the four sects of the Southern Territory,
Eastern Isles, Western Region, and Northern City
sealed the Evil Serpent's body within Imperial City
and cast statues of the Azure Dragon,
Vermilion Bird, White Tiger, and Black Tortoise
to protect the world ever since.
Whenever the Evil Serpent's shadow resurfaces,
the four sects will send their best masters
to Imperial City to slay it.
This responsibility has carried on for generations.
Now, it's your turn.
Go to the Eastern Realm.
Let me teach you one last lesson.
When you're gone,
I'll be all alone.
Qingming.
Grief and joy, partings and meetings, life and death,
you'll face them all in this brief flash of life.
Master.
Don't leave me all alone.
You and I are different.
Your blood carries the fate of the world.
My life has come to an end.
But you must make the world remember your name.
I don't care if the world remembers me.
No.
Your name is
Yin-Yang Master.
The Evil Serpent's shadow has resurfaced.
Masters from the four sects are on their way.
They'll arrive in Imperial City soon.
Your Highness,
you sound worried.
I'm worried about you.
-Come and take a look! -So many...
-We'll cross over first. -Careful. Just leave it there.
-See you later. -All right.
-Nice. -Nice.
Demon.
Demon.
Were you the one playing the flute?
You're bold, demon.
The Hermetic Pipa is a sacred relic given by the emperor to Jingyun Temple.
How dare you steal it?
Master.
The woman I loved
was a Pipa player in the palace when she was alive.
I just miss her so much,
so I want to hear the sound of the Pipa again.
He doesn't mean any harm.
He was just using the Pipa
to ease the pain he was feeling.
Nonsense.
A demon is a demon.
Who says they have feelings?
Of course they do.
If the Pipa is returned to its rightful owner,
will you spare his life?
If he's a human, yes.
If he's a demon, no.
Nice sword.
You...
It's indeed a treasure.
You don't understand music. Hands off.
You're a master of music.
You play it then.
You're a master, but you side with demons.
What a disgrace.
If you can't win, don't get into a fight.
If you don't want to play, don't play.
Is it necessary to tell someone off?
Sir, remember to see me again in a few days.
Ms. Yanrou, I'll get going.
Master Qingming.
Were you waiting for me?
I want to repay you.
What for?
No one has ever told me
that demons have feelings too.
Please let me be your Spirit Guardian.
What's your name?
Killing Stone.
Boya has returned.
-Boya. -Boya.
There's an imperial decree.
"According to the will of heaven,
this order is given to you.
The Evil Serpent's shadow has resurfaced,
its body will awaken soon.
Jingyun Temple has protected Imperial City for hundreds of years,
overcoming demons and monsters, defeating thieves and criminals.
The Evil Serpent slayers are hereby summoned
to the palace immediately.
By the Empress herself."
This way, please.
Tomorrow is the Heaven Worship Ceremony. Please rest early, Master Boya.
Thank you.
This way, please.
What are you doing here?
I'm here for the Heaven Worship Ceremony.
How is a master like you who sides with demons
qualified to attend the Heaven Worship Ceremony?
And how is a master like you who acts before he thinks
and speaks before he acts here?
Is it because of your pretty face?
Master Boya.
You seem to like the view from the top of the tower.
Do you want to go there again?
Your diabolic tricks are useless.
Do you dare to have an official fight with me?
Yes, but I don't want to.
You don't dare to.
Master Qingming.
Are you afraid that you won't be able to defeat him?
Miss,
you must be Master Longye from Southern Territory.
I've heard of Master Boya's valiance and bravery.
He's the ideal man of all the young women
in Imperial City.
It's late.
Masters, please rest.
Master He Shouyue.
Master Hongruo is old.
He's already resting.
If you keep talking loudly,
I'm afraid you'll disturb him.
Yes.
Master Longye,
what are you doing?
Well...
It's a habit of mine.
I always scatter Magic Bugs before I sleep as a precaution
to keep the demons away at night.
There's no need.
I put Barrier Magic around the Department of Celestial Observation.
