Kong Xuan, surrender yourself now.

Immovable Lord, I'm never against anyone,

why are you pushing me so hard?

Kong Xuan, you are of good nature,

but the Holy Devil's origin inside you means evil.

You should never have entered the mortal world.

It is not my will to kill you. It is your destiny.

Destiny?

Even demons have reasons to live.

You are so selfish.

You people high up there are the selfish ones.

No!

12 YEARS LATER

EXORCISM

EXORCISM

-Greetings, Lord Qing Xiong. -Greetings, Lord Qing Xiong.

EXORCISM

His Highness seems happy today.

He might have found something fun.

Right.

Stop it!

Stop it! It hurts!

So here you are.

Come down now, Hongjun!

You can't fly.

His Majesty will beat me up if you get hurt.

I know.

It's done. This will cure Father.

The fire toxins in your father can't be removed.

So don't even bother.

Father.

-This is bad! -This is bad!

-Run! -This is bad!

-Run! -Hurry!

He got into trouble again today.

I gave him a tough lesson.

That's what teenagers are like.

Back in those years, Kong Xuan and both of us

always got into trouble too.

I received a letter

from the Court of Exorcism of the mortal world.

They are calling up promising young men to return to Chang'an.

I believe they're preparing

for the rebirth of the Holy Devil four years later.

He is not ready yet.

Chong Ming, demons are at large now,

but Tang has few capable hands.

We don't have much time.

Don't forget

that we are also demons.

You still remember that?

I thought you had put it behind you,

Demon King.

Chong Ming,

we were beaten by the Black Dragon 200 years ago.

Unless we return to the mortal world and destroy him,

the Holy Devil will be reborn and lead the demons,

and the mortal world will plunge into misery and suffering.

What does that have to do with me?

The mortals are greedy and ungrateful.

They took away our third brother.

His son, born by a mortal, was left to me.

I had to raise him for 12 years.

Hongjun will never do anything for the mortal world.

Never!

Kong Xuan was a mixture of god and demon.

Hongjun has inherited his Divine Rainbow Light.

He has the power to take out the Black Dragon

and kill the reborn Holy Devil.

I said this on the day I left Midland.

Whatever happens to the demons has nothing to do with me.

As for the Holy Devil, I hope he is reborn soon

and kills all those damned mortals.

Be honest with yourself.

Hongjun.

Is it true?

True or not,

the answer

is already in your mind.

You are a special boy, Hongjun.

You grew up in the demon world,

but your mother was a mortal.

Your real father, Kong Xuan

was the incarnation of Peacock King.

Together with me, the Golden-Winged Peng,

we served as the right-hand men of Demon King,

Chong Ming the Phoenix.

We were like brothers.

You want to go to the mortal world, don't you?

Every time I came,

you made such a fuss,

begging me to take you there.

Now that you're a grown-up young man
