[Episode 14]

[Grace Garden]

Maybe some rare treasures will be on display.

I've heard Master Yili Er
has a remarkable skill

for identifying gold and treasures.

If he identifies anything authentic,

he'll even spend a fortune to buy it.

This is my family heirloom.

How I wish I could be so fortunate.

I wonder if Master Yili Er will teach others.

It would be even better if he could teach me.

It's starting. Let's get in.

Come on.

Your Grace.

The show begins.

Master Yili Er is here.

There you are, Master.

Master, take a look at my treasure.

Look at mine. This is my family heirloom.

My dear guests,
you've all come with your treasures.

I'll identify them one by one.

- All right.
- If the treasure is genuine,

you'll get 1,000 pieces of gold.

But if it's fake,
it'll be destroyed right here.

What?

- Destroyed?
- Mine is real. I'm not afraid.

- Right.
- Go ahead.

So many dignitaries.

Peerless in Youzhou, indeed.

If you smell like this,

even the best nose will no longer work.

Go to the woodshed and smell the firewood
to restore this sense.

You mortals are such a hassle.

It seems you're here to collect scents

instead of finding the Lord of Jiling Temple.

Can you sense if Song Xing Yu is here?

He stole the Glazed Pagoda, a magic tool,

to evade my spiritual perception.

Then how will you lure him out?

Yili Er made a deal with Song Xing Yu.

But now he wants you.

So they've grown estranged.

Yili Er is the one we need to crack.

What a peculiar smell.

Precious sword.

Sword.

It's pretty good.

This sword...

I'll offer 5,000 pieces of gold.

- 5,000 pieces?
- 5,000?

Now destroy all the counterfeits!

What?

- All of them?
- Really?

They can't all be fake, huh?

But...

It doesn't look fake at all.

It was really smashed.

And even this one?

- Again.
- So much gold.

This is too much.

Thank you, Master.

Can you even move that?

- You've made a fortune.
- This man is truly lucky.

Congratulations.

A genuine item will be worth a hundredfold.

A counterfeit will be destroyed.

It's a huge gamble, indeed.

Master.

Master, Master.

This is mine.

Look at mine.

Master, please take a look.

Look.

Is this jade vase genuine or fake?

Where did you get it?

At a young age,
my grandfather got this jade piece

from a renowned master when he traveled
with my ancestors.

Yili Er is just what they say he is.

Not exactly.

Calm down and see for yourself.

How much is it worth?

Antiques oppose wind energy.

If the wisps of wind can tightly
connect with the antique,

it means it's real.

Conversely, it's fake.

It's...

What's this?

A drop of water falls on the jade.

If it stays as a dewdrop without dispersing,

it's real jade.

This item doesn't match.

It doesn't?

But that is genuine.

So we're watching a show called
"a deceitful substitution".

Destroy it now.

Destroy? No.

You can't destroy it.

Don't listen to him.

- Hey.
- Yeah.

There's no way this is fake.

Oh no. I...

Move, move.

Get out of the way.

What are you doing?

Check mine, please.

It's from the previous dynasty.

Look at this.

- Previous dynasty?
- Looks nice.

Nice, isn't it?

It's finely crafted...

with smooth lines.

That's right.

Sadly, it's too thick and heavy.

Not from the previous dynasty.

It's a current forgery.

There's no way this is an antique.

According to the rules,
a fake must be destroyed here.

Since it's a fake,

why not sell it to me?

Who is she?

What is that?

Why does it give off a strange scent?

It's a bracelet made of agarwood.

Very precious.

Miss, it's my honor to have you live here.

Take this as a welcoming gift.

People usually have a deal
with newly-shaped spirits

as their servants.

I've never seen anyone

who has a deal with such a powerful spirit.

Who says I'm his servant?

I'm the master and he's the servant.

I command him.

Miss, if you don't mind,
will you hand him over to me?

Name your price.

You're carrying the token
of the Lord of Jiling Temple.

How dare you want another one?

I don't dare to let my spirit
snatch his servant.

How do you know?

No wonder you said
your spirit was disobedient.

Have you also heard that?

The Lord of Jiling Temple is in trouble.

Are you going to abandon him?

It seems you don't know.

He offended the Sovereign
and fled to the Mortal World.

Now, he has been tracked down.

I think...

if he gets caught,
he should be ex*cuted immediately.

Otherwise, if he escapes again
or if he gets locked up for centuries,

he won't answer when you call him.

And you can't casually get a new spirit.

Then your life...

will pass by quickly.

Miss, if I end up having no spirit,

will you give me yours?

What will you give me in return?

What do you want?

Who's that?

Song Xing Yu?

[Song Xing Yu, Lord of Jiling Temple]

Greetings, My Lord.

Why am I losing control of my mouth?

Look, My Lord.

These are the treasures
I've collected for you.

They're sparkling and valuable.

Tell me.

When stealing during the day,

did you see a woman with a spirit?

I'm very familiar with them.

Do you mean the spirit holding a sword?

Does the woman have spirit power?

No. She's a mere mortal.

So, Fang Chang didn't lie.

How powerful is the spirit by her side?

I can't tell how powerful he is.

But he can use a mortal's sword.

That sword is powerful.

Let's do something to separate them.

My Lord, can you k*ll that spirit
and give me his sword?

Get lost!

Who is the Lord, you or me?

How dare you order me around?

I'm sorry, My Lord.

I'll go figure out how to separate them.

No need.

I'll find a way to separate them.

- By then, you just hold that spirit off.
- Yes, sir.

If you manage to snatch the sword,
bring it back to me.

Yes, sir.

This Gold-threaded Glove
can block the aura of magic tools.

Wear it to get the sword.

Yes, sir.

My Lord,

can I have that tower?

- Get out!
- Yes, sir.

- My ball.
- Young Master, don't go there.

Don't go there. Come back.

Young Master.

Is he all right?

- It's so dangerous.
- Is he fine?

- Be very careful.
- My ball.

Let's go.

I was really freaked out.

Nothing must happen to Young Master.

You know what? After the fete was over,

Master had a stunning woman stay here.

Maybe she'll be his new bride.

It's already restless enough
with four madams.

Just now, I saw them head furiously
toward the woodshed

to give her a hard time.

Looks like Master wants another child.

Because his children, male or female,
always die young.

People are gossiping.

These years, Master has been wealthier.

But among his children,

only Young Master Lu Da grew up to adulthood.

- Lu Da?
- Maybe it's a curse.

Young Master Lu Da went to the capital at ten
and never returned.

Master doesn't seem to want him back.

Si Mu.

Yili Er's son is Lu Da,
a senior official in the Capital.

Then? Another friend of yours?

I'm not worthy of a friend like that.

He's the High Priest's favorite pupil,

Young Priest Lu Da.

He's very likely to be High Priest.

In the Chong Court, everybody knows him.

That explains why Yili Er
can have so many treasures

from the royal court.

You think he's also involved in this?

I don't think so.

He scorns such things.

Have mercy upon us.

Have mercy upon us.

There's confusion.

- There's confusion.
- He looks very ethereal.

It's said to be the most important gift
for becoming a priest.

What are you going to do
to Yili Er and Song Xing Yu?

Now that I'm here,
I'll wait until they come to me.

How arrogant.

[Jiang Ai, Left Hand of the Void]

Thinking of sending Si Mu another present?

If you keep waiting,
you'll be like a waiting husband.

Her Grace has been away for so long.

Without constraints,
you seem pretty carefree.

Si Mu has never constrained me.

But look at you.

When Her Grace is away, you're in charge.

Shouldn't you feel happier?

Why are you acting like a resentful man?

Oh, I see.

Her Grace has been
in the Mortal World for so long.

Is she seeing another man?

Oh, you must be heartbroken.

Hitting a nerve?

You called me over for a discussion.

Since you have so much free time,

why don't you authorize the fund request
for two billion spirit stones?

Her Grace approved it before she left.

When are you going to stop stalling?

I suddenly remembered I had work to do.

I should go.

Go to the Mortal World.

If Her Grace has a problem,
inform me immediately.

- Yes, sir.
- Yes, sir.

Spring water ginseng.

Xiling mutton.

North Sea snow lotus.

That's so you.

After just a few days,
you can identify food with clarity.

So, you wrote a note

and asked me to have the servants
prepare this, right?

Exactly.

I'm just curious about how well you're doing
with your sense of smell.

It's me, Miss.

May I come in and talk to you?

This is your house.

Don't be so formal.

Miss He, I have a favor to ask of you.

What favor?

My son, Lu Da, lived in the Capital.

Suddenly, he's coming back to see us.

I'm wondering if you can have your spirit
stop my son from coming here

and get him back to the Capital.

I've heard Lu Da went to the Capital at ten
and never came back.

Why?

Are you afraid
he'll know about your evil deal?

Or are you afraid to lose this son?

Miss, you must be joking.

We've been living here for a couple of days.

So you go help him.

But you...

Don't worry about me.

Thank you, Miss.

I'd like to see

what you and Song Xing Yu are up to.

Young man, fancy meeting you here.

You know what?
I got back from out of town

and found a way to make a fortune.

Tell me about it.

- You...
- Si Mu is right.

As long as we wait...

You'll come on your own.

I don't want this sword anymore.
I have to go now.

Be careful with fire in dry weather.

Be careful with fire in dry weather.

[Young Priest Lu Da of the Chong court]

Seventeen?

It's you.

Why are you like this?

What a surprise.

You recognize me, Young Priest.

How come you suddenly showed up?

To be honest, your father sent me
to make you return to the Capital.

You know my father?

This is just his excuse to lure me away.

He wants to k*ll my friend and me.

Then let's hurry back.

You believe me already?

What if I lied?

There's no evil in your eyes.

Will your friend be all right?

Don't worry.

She's smart.

She won't be fooled the same way again.

Father.

Mother.

Look.

Now I can hold the two of you
with just one arm.

You always said you loved me,

but you both left me.

I'm left all alone.

Si Mu.

Si Mu, I'm leaving.

A mortal doesn't live forever.

I can't stay any longer.

Si Mu, I can't live without your mother.

I must leave with her.

Didn't you promise to live with me?

Why did you break your promise too?

Why did every one of you have to abandon me?

I don't want to be alone.

I just don't want that.

Si Mu.

You can leave with us.

Death will end everything.

There will be no more pain.

When you're dead,
the three of us will reunite.

Stop acting.

My parents only want me to live a good life.

You failed to find my vital center,

so you tried to k*ll me in my dream.

Lord of Jiling Temple,

you tried really hard.

You're such a loyal servant.

I guess Song Xing Yu must have promised you

that after k*lling me,
he will become the Sovereign,

and give you all the glory
and wealth in this world.

But have you ever thought about
what will happen...

if he fails?

Song Xing Yu,

it's really not easy for me
to get to see you.

He Si Mu, you've fallen this far.

Why are you still talking tough?

You're greedy, short-sighted,
reckless, and foolish.

In the past 300 years,
you haven't grown at all.

You...

Give me the Spirits Lantern!

It's not with me.

Even if I die,
it won't take you as its master.

Then... go get the Lantern back.

Now you have no spirit power
and very little magic.

If you can't get it back,

I will...

I will throw you into
the South Sea Ice Coffin

and lock you up forever.

I have a question.

If I'm satisfied with your answer,

I suppose I can give you the Lantern.

Why do you want to be the Sovereign?

In this world, every spirit wants that.

The Sovereign can do anything
and gets anything he or she wants.

All the treasures in this world
will belong to me.

And then?

Spirits can't feel or enjoy
the sensual pleasures or luxuries.

So what's the point of having them?

If it's not a precious position,

why do you refuse to give it up?

I'm not satisfied with your answer.

I won't give this position to someone I hate.

In that case, I'll k*ll you and take it!

You're back sooner than expected.

I think I'm back at a perfect time.

Lu Da?

Father, what are you doing?

He had a deal with a spirit

in exchange for your family fortune
and your rapid promotion.

These years,
all your siblings died at a young age

just because his misdeeds backfired on him.

Father.

Is she telling the truth?

Please spare me, sir.

The Treasure Vault.

My treasures.

My collections of over ten years.

Father.

It's all over.

- Oh no.
- Father.

All is lost.

Father.

Sorry.

He slipped away.

It's all right.

Next time, he won't be so fortunate.

Are you all right?

What could go wrong with me?

Why were you so obedient this time?

You did what I told you to.

I don't know your plan.

So I believe
I shouldn't cause you any trouble.

You smell so good.

In the dream Song Xing Yu fabricated,

I smelled the pleasant aroma
from your scented pouch.

In that case,

why not smell a little more?

And since that night,
you've kept a straight face.

I suspect...

you'll settle the score with me
after your power's back.

So I might as well be bolder.

Besides,

when I was away from you...

I worried about you,
even though it wasn't really my place.

So you know...

that it's not your place.
