Short filmTranscript
00:00:00Cheryl, I know you've been gifted in martial arts since birth.
00:00:05But now that the Empress holds absolute power, you mustn't reveal your true abilities.
00:00:10Wait until I return.
00:00:12The Tyrant's Divine Bowl weighs a thousand pounds. Only those with divine strength can wield it.
00:00:31Your servant pays respects to the Empress and Her Highness the Second Princess.
00:00:45Attendant Sia, what brings you before me today?
00:00:48I implore Your Majesty to revoke the decree and cancel my daughter Cheryl Tuoba's political marriage to the Jutland Crown Prince.
00:00:55That worthless Cheryl Tuoba is only fit for political marriage. What other use could she have?
00:01:04Without power, submit obediently. Such is the fate of lowborns like you.
00:01:25At such tender age, to master the Tyrant's bow. Remarkable prowess. With such power, her future knows no bounds.
00:01:43Attackers! Protect her majesty!
00:01:45Mother Empress!
00:01:47I'm a zero.
00:02:00One of the Overlord Arrows is missing! Someone actually drew the Divine Bow!
00:02:04How is that possible?
00:02:07My strength in the Royal Family ranks number one.
00:02:11Yet I can't master the Overlord Bow. Someone actually drew the Divine Bow.
00:02:15And even shot an Overlord Arrow. What kind of monster are they?
00:02:19This person's power. I'm afraid he's comparable to Yara Tuoba, the Founding Empress. Unmatched in her time.
00:02:25Your Majesty, I will send men to capture this villain.
00:02:30Cheryl.
00:02:33Capture him! This person's skill. If he wanted to get serious, I'm afraid no one could stop him.
00:02:38No, we must win over this expert. Immediately send people to search.
00:02:42Yes.
00:02:43Cheryl, didn't I tell you not to reveal your strength?
00:02:50Mother, they hit you again?
00:02:52It's okay. Tomorrow is the Royal Martial Arts Tournament. The Second Princess is determined to secure the position of Crown Princess.
00:02:59If the Empress discovers your strength, she will surely eliminate you to prevent future troubles.
00:03:04These years, the Empress and her daughter have made things difficult for us. I'm not content.
00:03:11You bitch! What are you still doing here?
00:03:17Second Princess. Cheryl is, after all, the eldest Princess of Lunaria. Married to the Lee Kingdom for peace. It damages Lunaria's reputation. I beg you, Second Princess. Plead with the Empress.
00:03:30Mother.
00:03:31A commoner by birth. A useless person with no martial skill. Has the nerve to say she's the eldest Princess.
00:03:43What now? You dare deny being a disgrace? If not for your mother seducing His Majesty with her charms and burying you in secret outside the palace. This illegitimate whelp. The position of First Princess was rightfully mined from the start.
00:04:00Though my mother was of humble birth, she remained a virtuous woman of honor.
00:04:06Virtuous? Ha! Her lowly status made her unworthy to share the royal bed.
00:04:12One more word, Cheryl.
00:04:17What now? Don't tell me you'd raise your hand to me.
00:04:21Second Princess, I beg you don't stoop to her level of...
00:04:25Mother! Mother!
00:04:27Even if I killed your mother today, what could a useless thing like you possibly do?
00:04:38Remove your foot!
00:04:39Move it yourself if you can!
00:04:47Cheryl!
00:04:51Mother!
00:04:57Cheryl!
00:04:58If you possessed even a fraction of that archer's strength who drew the Divine Bow, I might show you some respect, but trash remains trash forever.
00:05:14What's the use of all my martial skills?
00:05:17Still, I can only endure their humiliation.
00:05:19If I were to ascend the throne, I'd bring equality to all under heaven, then see who would dare to divide people into classes.
00:05:37Martin!
00:05:38I humbly request your leniency.
00:05:41I humbly request your leniency.
00:05:48A thousands! Protect the Chancellor!
00:05:49A thousands! Protect the Chancellor!
00:05:50The Chancellor.
00:06:02Morong Lunaria come with us quietly.
00:06:11You can try.
00:06:13Cheryl!
00:06:14Attack!
00:06:15Oh, my God.
00:06:45With such talent and blessed with the Phoenix physique, if guided by my teachings, she'll become unrivaled in this world.
00:06:58Speak! Who sent you here?
00:07:07Shadow.
00:07:15Shadow.
00:07:21We were about to get married back then. But you, why did you leave without a word?
00:07:26Three years ago, the Emperor discovered I was his daughter, raised in the common world.
00:07:32He brought me back to the palace.
00:07:34Since then, my status changed drastically.
00:07:37The marriage pledge from my past could no longer be honored.
00:07:40Don't be afraid.
00:07:46Now that I'm the Imperial Chancellor, I can advise the Emperor directly.
00:07:48How dare you! As shameless as your mother! Daring to seduce my royal consort!
00:08:04How dare you seduce my consort!
00:08:06Princess, our marriage arrangement was decided solely by my father. I have no intention to marry you.
00:08:13I came here tonight to beg the Empress to nullify this engagement.
00:08:17I know you met her in the common world. You even promised to marry her.
00:08:20But a lonely wretch like her could never dream of coveting the man I've chosen.
00:08:24The Empress controls everything. You must hide your true abilities.
00:08:40Shahrul.
00:08:44Martin Murong.
00:08:46You ought to thank heaven I stooped to take you as consort.
00:08:49Defy me again, and your entire clan will face annihilation.
00:08:54Rest assured, Second Princess, my son's heart belongs to you alone.
00:09:04After tomorrow's martial tournament, when you claim the throne as Crown Princess Imperial,
00:09:08the Murong clan will host a royal wedding procession.
00:09:10Father.
00:09:11Silence.
00:09:12Then control your son better, lest some seductress snatches him away.
00:09:18Yes, yes.
00:09:20You're as lowborn as your mother.
00:09:22I've ordered Zianfu Palace's medicine and fuel cut.
00:09:26This is your punishment for offending me.
00:09:35This premium healing salve.
00:09:37Take it.
00:09:41Martin.
00:09:42With the Princess's power,
00:09:44claiming the throne is certain.
00:09:45If you displease her, our entire clan will face consequences.
00:09:53Uncle, if I prove victorious at tomorrow's tournament,
00:09:56will you permit my union with Martin?
00:09:59Princess, your skills are undisputed.
00:10:02But in this court, only the one who can draw the tyrant's bow,
00:10:05that mysterious master, can challenge her.
00:10:08If you care for Martin, cut all ties with him.
00:10:10Mother, I've made up my mind.
00:10:35I will compete in tomorrow's martial tournament
00:10:37to claim the crown princess title.
00:10:41If the Empress finds out, you'll lose your life.
00:10:44All these years, I've hidden my strength,
00:10:47trained relentlessly for the day I could redeem my honor.
00:10:51Mother, tomorrow's tournament is my perfect chance.
00:10:56Very well.
00:10:57But the Empress has deep roots.
00:11:00If she discovers your claim to the throne,
00:11:02it's extremely dangerous.
00:11:03You must wait until His Majesty attends the tournament
00:11:06to reveal your true power.
00:11:08Until then, show restraint.
00:11:10Without my permission, do not act recklessly.
00:11:15When Father returns, I'll make them all see clearly
00:11:18who truly deserves to rule the United Realms of Lunaria.
00:11:24Today's martial contest will crown Lunaria's new ruler.
00:11:27Brother, don't disappoint us.
00:11:29Her Majesty, the Empress is arriving.
00:11:31All hail Her Majesty.
00:11:48Long live the Empress.
00:11:50Rise.
00:11:53Sue, your father is returning.
00:11:56Until his arrival, I'll oversee this tournament.
00:11:58You must win first place to secure the throne.
00:12:02Naturally.
00:12:03In this palace, only the legendary archer who wields the divine bow could challenge me.
00:12:08Well, if it isn't for a royal highness, what's this?
00:12:21You brought your lowborn mother along with you?
00:12:24Today's martial tournament selects the ruler of United Realms of Lunaria.
00:12:27A martial arts incompetent like her has no business being here.
00:12:31Hold.
00:12:31Who granted you entry?
00:12:35Since this tournament selects Imperial heirs, and I bear the Tuoba name, why shouldn't I enter?
00:12:39The whole court knows you, Cheryl Tuoba, are a powerless disgrace.
00:12:43You'd only be a laughingstock.
00:12:45Moreover, a common-born red would defile the sacred arena.
00:12:49Get lost.
00:12:50This is no place for your kind.
00:12:52Your majesty, show mercy.
00:13:01Cheryl truly wishes to compete.
00:13:03Embarrassing spectacle.
00:13:07Mother Empress, the muddy ground might soil your phoenix robes.
00:13:11I propose to use Cheryl Tuoba as your footstool.
00:13:18Second princess I can.
00:13:22Mother.
00:13:32Born to serve, it seems.
00:13:35Make way for her majesty.
00:13:36Your turn, little rat.
00:13:53Escort me.
00:13:57You must wait until his majesty arrives, before revealing your true power.
00:14:01I be my heart.
00:14:13You must wait until my eyes.
00:14:14Sir, Henry, will啦.
00:14:17I'll give you something.
00:14:20Help me, help me.
00:14:22Help me.
00:14:23Help me.
00:14:24альgh.
00:14:24Help me.
00:14:24Bill!
00:14:26Help me.
00:14:26Help me.
00:14:28Help me.
00:14:28Help me.
00:14:30Help me.
00:14:31You are pathetic.
00:14:42When the tournament begins, I'll make you suffer a hundredfold.
00:14:50Esteemed guests, the Emperor has achieved a decisive victory and is now returning triumphantly to the capital.
00:14:56Therefore, this martial tournament shall be presided over by me, the Empress.
00:15:00By the Emperor's decree, the champion of today's competition will not only earn the right to inherit the throne,
00:15:06but also the honor of becoming the personal disciple of our founding Empress.
00:15:11Bring it on!
00:15:18Excellent! Let the tournament begin!
00:15:25I'll take the first match.
00:15:30No, no, no, no, no!
00:15:31No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!
00:15:44You third-rate amateurs aren't worth my time.
00:15:52Attack me together if you dare.
00:15:53Trash!
00:16:02Well fought!
00:16:03As expected of Second Princess trained under David since childhood, her agile movements do honor to the royal house.
00:16:08Even the princes renowned for their combat skills stand no chance against her.
00:16:12Naturally, she's the most likely royal heir to draw the divine bow, unlike this worthless First Princess.
00:16:19You see, Second Princess will surely become next ruler of United Realms of Lunaria.
00:16:23If you can marry into her line, our Moorong clan will rise to greatness.
00:16:30Then by decree, the victor of this martial contest is...
00:16:33Hold Empress Mother!
00:16:38The challenger has descended.
00:16:43Cheryl.
00:16:46How dare you, as First Princess of Lunaria, cower from the arena?
00:16:50Where's your courage?
00:16:51Fear not. None will mock your defeat.
00:16:55For all know well you're but a worthless failure.
00:17:00You dare ascend? Have you no sense of your own worth?
00:17:05None but yesterday's mysterious archer who drew the divine bow could best second Princess.
00:17:10Cheryl.
00:17:11Don't force yourself first, Princess.
00:17:16Train harder another day, then seek your moment.
00:17:20His Majesty.
00:17:22Wait, wait!
00:17:23Having risen, there's no retreating now.
00:17:37Crawl onto this platform.
00:17:38Ascend! Ascend!
00:17:41So be it!
00:17:45Cheryl, before His Majesty returns, you must not exert full strength.
00:17:48Finally, the girl takes the stage.
00:17:58Show them all your true power.
00:17:59Cheryl Tuoba, Elvis Princess of Lunaria.
00:18:04I await your guidance.
00:18:05Sit down.
00:18:21Mother, may I unleash my full power?
00:18:25Girl, why hold back your strength?
00:18:27Your Highness, show mercy.
00:18:46The throne shall be mine alone.
00:18:49As for you, you deserve to remain beneath my heel forever.
00:18:52You're clearly aiming to kill!
00:18:58This duel decides not just victory, but life and death itself.
00:19:03Such is the law of the arena.
00:19:10Well fought!
00:19:12I warned you before, outsiders like you are vermin everyone despises.
00:19:17Sue, let's focus on taking the banner first.
00:19:19Any other challenger, step forward now!
00:19:27No one?
00:19:29Then this banner.
00:19:30I'll take it.
00:19:43Frank, you win!
00:19:44This is Lunaria's martial tournament.
00:19:46What's a foreigner like you doing here?
00:19:47Imagine the world knowing Lunaria's sacred banner was taken by Jutland's crown prince.
00:19:53Wouldn't that be amusing?
00:19:55Ha ha ha!
00:19:56How dare you?
00:19:57Sue, put him in his place!
00:20:08Frank, you win strikes are lethal.
00:20:10In our union of Jutland, someone of your skill shouldn't even touch this arena.
00:20:15By the way, where's that archer who drew the divine bow?
00:20:19Too scared to show up?
00:20:20Oh, I know, you're all too weak to deserve his protection.
00:20:23Ha ha ha!
00:20:25Frank, you win!
00:20:26You think United Realms of Lunaria has no warriors?
00:20:29Am I wrong?
00:20:29Women will always be women.
00:20:31Like her.
00:20:32Know your place is useless and be a pretty boss.
00:20:34Isn't that enough?
00:20:35But let's be honest.
00:20:38Even if you're worthless, you've got some charm.
00:20:40Soon, you and your mother can serve me together.
00:20:43How about it?
00:20:44Never!
00:20:45Let me make this clear.
00:20:46My favor is an honor you don't deserve.
00:20:49As women, you should obediently marry early.
00:20:52And the rest of you, same applies.
00:20:53This is outrageous!
00:20:56Enough talk!
00:20:57No wonder your Lunaria falls.
00:20:59Letting women rule?
00:21:00Enough!
00:21:01Fight me on stage!
00:21:03Or admit defeat!
00:21:04Cower below and gaze up at Jutland's glory!
00:21:07Ha ha ha ha!
00:21:08Cease this influence!
00:21:09All hail His Majesty at the Martial Tournament.
00:21:24Long live the Emperor!
00:21:28Rise!
00:21:31Arrogant pup, you've learned scraps and dare boast here.
00:21:35Your Majesty, I nearly heard of your tournament and sought worthy opponents to test my skills.
00:21:40Yet I find your so-called experts all incompetent.
00:21:44Unless that Archer who drew the Divine Bow appears today, no one here can challenge me.
00:21:48How dare you!
00:21:50Whoever defeats Frank Ewan today, will inherit the throne!
00:21:54Because we're commoners, because our status can't match nobles, they treat us like animals?
00:22:17Whoever defeats Frank Ewan today, will inherit the throne!
00:22:20No challengers!
00:22:25Mother!
00:22:30Useless, fools!
00:22:32Thrash!
00:22:33Then I'll...
00:22:34Personally destroy this banner myself!
00:22:38I'll do it!
00:22:40A loser who can't even defeat me dares challenge Frank Ewan?
00:22:59Ha ha ha!
00:22:59You only succeeded by ambush through sheer luck.
00:23:02How dare you cling to false hope of victory!
00:23:05Very well.
00:23:06It seems I must take you back to the Union of Jutland for proper discipline.
00:23:10Even the second princess beat you!
00:23:12Why is this trash on stage?
00:23:13Get down now!
00:23:14Don't shame the United Realms of Lunaria!
00:23:16Get down!
00:23:16Get down!
00:23:17Step down!
00:23:18Down!
00:23:18Down!
00:23:19Silence!
00:23:21Where was this ferocity when it mattered?
00:23:23Hmph!
00:23:24Pathetic fools!
00:23:25Showing off temporary power!
00:23:26Wait!
00:23:27She's not showing off!
00:23:29You wench!
00:23:30Take this!
00:23:39Good!
00:23:40This!
00:23:41Well fought!
00:23:47She showed Mercy mid-dual holding back her full power using only 80% strength.
00:23:53That kick could have ended his life.
00:23:55Such martial virtue is truly rare.
00:23:59Impossible!
00:24:00How can a woman surpass my martial skill?
00:24:02Women can be equally formidable.
00:24:04Never inferior to men.
00:24:06Brilliant.
00:24:07Simply brilliant.
00:24:08It appears she's the ideal candidate.
00:24:10No way.
00:24:11She's been concealing her true power.
00:24:14She's waiting for the Emperor's return to witness her strength and claim the throne.
00:24:18Frank Ewan.
00:24:19Frank Ewan.
00:24:23Now you understand the United Realms of Lunaria's might.
00:24:26Guard.
00:24:27Escort Frank Ewan back to Jutland.
00:24:29Let none say our United Realms of Lunaria lack courtesy.
00:24:32Return to our realm again and you'll crawl in shame.
00:24:35Out!
00:24:35Out!
00:24:35Get out!
00:24:36Martin!
00:24:37Sharp eyes.
00:24:38The throne clearly belongs to the eldest princess.
00:24:40Mother, what shall we do?
00:24:45If she ascends the throne, we're finished.
00:24:52Fear not.
00:24:53No one will take your rightful throne.
00:24:55Cheryl.
00:24:58Mother.
00:25:00See?
00:25:01I told you so.
00:25:02Her Highness is truly formidable.
00:25:04She's clearly the most qualified to inherit the throne.
00:25:10Father Emperor, my victory today, does this earn me the throne?
00:25:14Naturally.
00:25:15Your triumph over the Jutland Crown Prince with peerless martial skill brings glory to Lunaria.
00:25:20Therefore...
00:25:20Your Majesty, wait!
00:25:25Cheryl Tuova is unworthy of the throne.
00:25:29Your Majesty, in Lunaria's history, when has a low-ranking consort's child ever ascended the throne?
00:25:36Moreover, she's a commoner's daughter.
00:25:39Your Majesty, rejecting Her Highness for such baseless reasons will so dissent.
00:25:43I beg your discernment.
00:25:45How dare you?
00:25:46Your Majesty, Cheryl is undeniably today's victor.
00:25:49Cheryl has rightfully defeated Jutland's heir.
00:25:51Her victory is absolute.
00:25:52Earth status shouldn't determine royal succession.
00:25:55Your Majesty, can't you see they're deceiving you?
00:26:01I've long suspected Attendant Sia and her daughter have betrayed Lunaria.
00:26:05They collude with Jutland.
00:26:09You, that's slander!
00:26:11You low-born schemers, common-born upstarts.
00:26:15The palace rumors were right.
00:26:17You couldn't bear scrutiny, so you'd sell our realm to Jutland?
00:26:21Your Majesty!
00:26:22Attendant Sia boasted of wedding Cheryl Tuova to Jutland's royalty.
00:26:26This proves their treason.
00:26:28You're the one who tried to force me into Jutland.
00:26:31When she dueled me before, she couldn't even land a single strike.
00:26:35How could she defeat Frank Ewan, who even I couldn't best?
00:26:38This is all staged.
00:26:40A pathetic princess's fake redemption tale.
00:26:44Father Emperor, I hid my true skills because the Empress would never approve my abilities.
00:26:48I threw previous matches to await your return, to prove myself truly.
00:26:51Very, very well.
00:26:53If you claim true prowess, face my retainer, David, in combat.
00:26:57Your Majesty, let this settle the matter.
00:27:02So be it.
00:27:03David, spar with Cheryl, but hold back.
00:27:05Use only 10% of your strength.
00:27:07As commanded, Your Majesty.
00:27:13His Majesty has spoken.
00:27:15Are you scared?
00:27:16I'm just concerned you're close with David.
00:27:18If he fights for you, secretly goes all out.
00:27:20What then?
00:27:21Are you questioning my integrity?
00:27:23By His Majesty's decree, you're unworthy to face me.
00:27:27David trained under the Founding Empress.
00:27:29I trust his integrity.
00:27:30But...
00:27:30Begin.
00:27:33Fine.
00:27:36How foolish.
00:27:38David's already been recruited by Huang Fu family.
00:27:40He'll naturally fight at full strength.
00:27:44Take her down.
00:27:46This David trained with me since childhood.
00:27:48Mastered 30% of my skills.
00:27:51This duel will test her capabilities.
00:27:53This duel will test her capabilities.
00:28:08She actually has such formidable strength.
00:28:11Had she not exhausted her energy earlier, I fear this punch would have overwhelmed me.
00:28:17How was that strike?
00:28:18Impressed?
00:28:19I was merely testing you earlier.
00:28:21Your feeble power pales before Second Princess.
00:28:23You're utterly inferior.
00:28:25Empty boosts.
00:28:27Though your talent surpasses the late Empress Prime, it's a pity you'll die today.
00:28:33How will you counter this?
00:28:34Cheryl.
00:28:44Amateur skills.
00:28:46Your Majesty, see?
00:28:48Sue can defeat David at 10% power.
00:28:50Yet this one can't even raise a defense.
00:28:52The outcome speaks for itself.
00:28:53Exactly.
00:28:54Why are you standing?
00:28:55Arrest these traitors at once.
00:29:00Out!
00:29:01Hold on!
00:29:07Imperial Father, these two are traitors.
00:29:10Such disloyal and unfilial beings.
00:29:11Why keep them around?
00:29:13This concerns Lunaria's future.
00:29:14We need a thorough investigation, then draw a conclusion.
00:29:20But if today, we don't punish these two, and don't give the royals an explanation,
00:29:25then I fear Lunaria.
00:29:27Someone will defy the rules.
00:29:28Yes, Your Majesty.
00:29:30If not severely punished, as a warning to others, it will be hard to convince the public.
00:29:36At least disable this traitor's meridians to prevent revenge later.
00:29:40This.
00:29:44Imperial Father, I truly relied on my own strength to win against Jutland's prince.
00:29:49They're just afraid of me.
00:29:50After I ascend the throne, I'll retaliate.
00:29:52Please, Father, see clearly.
00:29:55Still trying to argue?
00:29:56Who doesn't know that you and your mother are the black sheep of Lunaria?
00:30:00Besides ruining Lunaria's reputation, you're worthless.
00:30:03Everyone here, tell me, isn't that right?
00:30:05That's right.
00:30:06Who knows how she'll retaliate against Lunaria after marrying into Jutland?
00:30:09Disable her meridians as a warning.
00:30:12Then...
00:30:13Imperial Father, as the ruler of a nation, how can you so easily believe their one-sided words?
00:30:24Is my life not a life at all?
00:30:26Yes, Your Majesty.
00:30:28This concerns Lunaria's future.
00:30:30We mustn't be negligent.
00:30:31Chancellor Murong.
00:30:32This is an internal matter.
00:30:35It's not your place to discuss.
00:30:37Please be quiet for a moment.
00:30:40Very well, Cheryl Tuoba.
00:30:42You dare to question Imperial Father's decision, and you haven't even married into Jutland.
00:30:48You dare to defy authority now?
00:30:50Yes, Your Majesty.
00:30:51If we leave this danger for later, I can't imagine the consequences.
00:30:56Imperial Father, please trust me.
00:31:02Then do as the Empress says.
00:31:08Your Majesty.
00:31:10Imperial Father.
00:31:20No!
00:31:23Cheryl!
00:31:24Let go!
00:31:25Let go of Cheryl!
00:31:28No!
00:31:29Let go!
00:31:30Release Cheryl!
00:31:32Cheryl!
00:31:35This is all my fault.
00:31:37I shouldn't have let you join the martial tournament.
00:31:39This is all my fault.
00:31:42I hereby declare the winner of this martial tournament is the second princess,
00:31:46who shall become Empress Regnant Founder's final disciple.
00:31:54Splendid!
00:31:55The Empress Founder's martial prowess is peerless.
00:31:58Learning from her will bring great advancement.
00:32:00Your wicked deeds defy heaven's will.
00:32:05Chancellor Murong, your devotion to this useless eldest princess is touching.
00:32:10Today, I'll sever your delusions.
00:32:14Imperial Mother, order the execution of this traitor.
00:32:17Indeed, this scourge must be eradicated.
00:32:22You dare act without the Emperor's consent?
00:32:24Such audacity!
00:32:25As the tournament victor, I'm Lunaria's next ruler.
00:32:29Should Father reprimand me, it will be lenient.
00:32:32Besides, everyone supports my actions.
00:32:36Am I right?
00:32:36Yes, the second princess is just...
00:32:39Kill the traitor.
00:32:41Death to the rebel.
00:32:43You, all of you.
00:32:44How heartless you are!
00:32:46My daughter and I only wished for a peaceful life.
00:32:50Yet you torment us so.
00:32:51What wrong have we done?
00:32:53Your crime is being commoners without backing who dare challenge my royal claim.
00:32:59Unless the Empress Founder herself appears today, none can save me now.
00:33:04Proceed!
00:33:05Cheryl!
00:33:05Who dares?
00:33:17Who dares approach?
00:33:19You dare meddle in royal affairs?
00:33:21How many heads do you have to lose?
00:33:23Who am I?
00:33:24That's not for you to know.
00:33:26As for you, petty and narrow-minded thirsting for empty glory.
00:33:29You're unworthy of being Lunaria's princess.
00:33:32You're courting death!
00:33:35With such feeble strength, not even a tenth of Cheryl Tuoba's power, you're utterly inferior.
00:33:42If not for your mother's political connections, you'd never deserve comparison with Cheryl Tuoba.
00:33:47Lies spewing from your mouth.
00:33:49How could I sue Tuoba not be superior to that lowly, wretch Cheryl Tuoba?
00:33:55David!
00:33:57Intruders breached the royal sanctuary.
00:33:59They gravely wounded the princess.
00:34:00Why do you hesitate?
00:34:02Are you just standing by waiting for me to fall victim to robbers too?
00:34:05Forgive me, your majesty.
00:34:06I will apprehend the intruder.
00:34:09David!
00:34:09You dare raise arms against me?
00:34:12This Aura.
00:34:13She's the great ancestor.
00:34:15I dare not, your highness.
00:34:18Your majesty.
00:34:19Regarding today's affairs, I am powerless to intervene.
00:34:22I must take my leave now.
00:34:24David!
00:34:25If you leave today, I'll charge you with dereliction of duty.
00:34:28Who are you, truly?
00:34:37Remove your veil.
00:34:38Show me your face.
00:34:40As Lunaria's empress, ruler of the inner court, you were meant to be a paragon of virtue and motherly grace for the realm.
00:34:46Yet you wallow in selfishness and unscrupulous schemes.
00:34:50Lyra Hongku, do you confess your crimes?
00:34:52No.
00:34:54You, hiding behind a veil.
00:34:56A cowardly rat in disguise.
00:34:57You dare judge this queen.
00:34:59What arrogance you possess.
00:35:01Your transgression will soon be exposed to all.
00:35:03Lyra Hongku, tread carefully henceforth.
00:35:16Benefactor Cheryl, will she ever wake up?
00:35:19I can't say for sure whether she'll awaken.
00:35:23It all depends on her willpower.
00:35:24Cheryl, it's all my fault.
00:35:32I underestimated the empress's ruthlessness and power.
00:35:36You became the martial tournament champion.
00:35:39Yet they twisted the truth.
00:35:42To this state.
00:35:43I never should have let you enter the martial tournament.
00:35:50This wouldn't have happened.
00:35:52Truth be told, her current condition might not be entirely bad.
00:35:57Benefactor, don't try to comfort me.
00:36:00Not at all.
00:36:00I mean every word.
00:36:02I mean every word.
00:36:03Shattered meridians.
00:36:04For ordinary people, would be catastrophic.
00:36:08But Cheryl Toeba possesses the unique Phoenix Constitution.
00:36:11This crisis could be her chance to rise like a Phoenix, reborn through fire.
00:36:14When that happens, the power will transcend to new heights, unrivaled in Lunaria United Realms.
00:36:20Benefactor, since you say this, you must have a way to save her.
00:36:26Please help her.
00:36:30Rise.
00:36:32When she awakens, give her this jade pendant.
00:36:36This pendant contains the secret to her rebirth.
00:36:40Whether she can activate it depends on destiny.
00:36:44Understood.
00:36:45Thank you, Benefactor.
00:36:46Mother's illness flares again.
00:36:51I'll gather tonics to nourish her health.
00:36:53But I must avoid Lyra Huangfu's agents.
00:36:56With shattered meridians, I'm completely defenseless.
00:36:59At their mercy.
00:37:01Martin.
00:37:01I'm just a cripple now.
00:37:04I'll burden you.
00:37:12Martin, listen to your father's advice.
00:37:14Never go to Xianfu Palace again.
00:37:16To find Cheryl Tuoba.
00:37:18Now, the Empress is hunting her city wide.
00:37:21If you're connected to her again, our entire Morong family will face dire consequences.
00:37:27The true martial tournament champion was clearly Cheryl.
00:37:31Yet the title went to Sue Tuoba instead.
00:37:34This must be the Empress pulling strings behind the scenes.
00:37:37I will restore justice for Cheryl.
00:37:40Fool!
00:37:40How can you still not grasp the situation?
00:37:45Cheryl, don't worry.
00:37:47I won't let you suffer injustice.
00:37:49Martin.
00:37:51Not only am I unworthy of you,
00:37:54but I'll bring you down.
00:37:55Cheryl, is that really you?
00:38:13Sir, you've mistaken me.
00:38:18Please step aside.
00:38:21Cheryl!
00:38:21You're my Cheryl.
00:38:28But, Cheryl, what happened to you?
00:38:35Sir, I truly don't know you.
00:38:37I'm just a street beggar.
00:38:44My apologies.
00:38:46I mistook your identity.
00:38:48Guards,
00:38:49bring this beggar some food.
00:38:51Why waste words on a beggar?
00:38:55Did you hear what I said earlier?
00:38:58Father,
00:38:59no matter what,
00:39:01I'll clear Cheryl's name.
00:39:03When that day comes,
00:39:04I will make her my lawful wife with full honors.
00:39:07You!
00:39:15Useless fools.
00:39:16You've searched for so long,
00:39:17yet still can't find that man.
00:39:19What good are you all?
00:39:19You know.
00:39:25We're heading to Morong Mansion first.
00:39:29Martin.
00:39:30Why are you still standing at the gate?
00:39:34Tomorrow I will marry you.
00:39:35Furthermore,
00:39:36I'll be crowned crown princess by then.
00:39:37You!
00:39:38Sue Twoba.
00:39:39I will never marry you.
00:39:40Martin.
00:39:41Martin.
00:39:41Martin.
00:39:41Martin.
00:39:42Martin.
00:39:43Do you realize what you're saying?
00:39:47Is your heart still
00:39:48pining for that snake?
00:39:52Impossible,
00:39:52Your Highness.
00:39:54Martin meant he's unwell,
00:39:55who fears it may affect the wedding.
00:39:58Right,
00:39:58Martin?
00:40:00Martin.
00:40:01Martin.
00:40:01Martin.
00:40:01Martin.
00:40:01Martin.
00:40:01Martin.
00:40:01Martin.
00:40:01Martin.
00:40:01Martin.
00:40:01Martin.
00:40:01Martin.
00:40:02Martin.
00:40:02Martin.
00:40:02Martin.
00:40:02Martin.
00:40:03Martin.
00:40:03Martin.
00:40:03You'll marry me tomorrow.
00:40:04Then I advise you to abandon this delusion.
00:40:06My heart belongs to Cheryl alone.
00:40:15Hmph.
00:40:16How convenient this is.
00:40:19Cheryl Twoba.
00:40:21So it's truly you seducing Martin.
00:40:24You're dead.
00:40:27Guard.
00:40:29Arrest this woman at once.
00:40:30Halt where you stand.
00:40:32Your Highness Sue.
00:40:33This is just some disheveled mess street beggar.
00:40:36How could this be Cheryl Twoba?
00:40:39Is that so?
00:40:41Guard.
00:40:42Cheryl prevailed.
00:40:45Stop this.
00:40:46Sue Twoba.
00:40:47As the princess of the realm.
00:40:49Will you be a beggar in public?
00:40:51If word of this spreads,
00:40:53it will surely tarnish tomorrow's coronation ceremony and your reputation.
00:40:57You.
00:40:57Mere commoners gossip.
00:40:59Means nothing to me.
00:41:00Since you claim this beggar isn't Cheryl Twoba,
00:41:04then presumably she doesn't bear the scars from before.
00:41:08Very well then.
00:41:10Guards.
00:41:12Strip this beggar's clothes off.
00:41:14Enough.
00:41:15Sue Twoba.
00:41:16I'll agree to marry you.
00:41:18On one condition.
00:41:20Spare this beggar's life.
00:41:22Martin Murong.
00:41:23You misunderstand whether you consent or not.
00:41:25We wed tomorrow regardless.
00:41:28Proceed.
00:41:29Remove her garments.
00:41:30At once.
00:41:30Don't you dare move.
00:41:32What are you doing?
00:41:34Out of my way.
00:41:35Unhand me.
00:41:36Unhand me.
00:41:36Release me.
00:41:47It really is you, you vile creature.
00:41:50What are you doing?
00:41:53Get your filthy hands off me.
00:41:55Fine.
00:41:56Won't let go, huh?
00:41:58I said release me.
00:41:59I said release me.
00:41:59I said release me.
00:41:59I said release me.
00:42:01I said release me.
00:42:03I said release me.
00:42:05Your Highness Auxuay.
00:42:08I beg you to spare Cheryl Twoba.
00:42:10If you'll just spare Cheryl Twoba.
00:42:13I, Martin Murong,
00:42:15will sever all ties with Cheryl Twoba.
00:42:18And devote myself to marrying you.
00:42:21I can let her go.
00:42:24But you must, Martin Murong,
00:42:26destroy these two sachets
00:42:28with your own hands.
00:42:30Now.
00:42:31No, Martin.
00:42:33Don't destroy them.
00:42:35Cheryl Twoba.
00:42:36I can let her go.
00:42:37I can let her go.
00:42:38I can let her go.
00:42:39I can let her go.
00:42:40I can let her go.
00:42:41I can let her go.
00:42:42I can let her go.
00:42:43I can let her go.
00:42:44I can let her go.
00:42:45I can let her go.
00:42:46Cheryl Twoba.
00:42:47When I gave you this sachet years ago,
00:42:51it was just a childish whim.
00:42:53How could you take it seriously?
00:42:56Our relationship now
00:42:57is like these two sachets.
00:43:00Completely separate.
00:43:01No further connection.
00:43:03No further connection.
00:43:16You wretch!
00:43:17Today, for Martin's sake,
00:43:18I'll mercifully spare you.
00:43:21Come, Martin.
00:43:22We must make preparations for tomorrow's wedding.
00:43:25We must make preparations for tomorrow's wedding.
00:43:29Your Highness.
00:43:30Send men off to Cheryl Twoba immediately.
00:43:32Your Highness.
00:43:56Send men off to Cheryl Tober immediately.
00:44:00Make sure she never sees the light of day again.
00:44:03Understood.
00:44:16You work for Sue Twilba, don't you?
00:44:18What do you want?
00:44:22We are here to escort Her Highness to her final journey.
00:44:24The Phoenix rises from ashes.
00:44:44Reborn through flames.
00:44:45Never imagined Master had hidden the Jade Pendant's secret activation method within these very words.
00:44:55Yet I failed to decipher it all along.
00:44:57Where...
00:45:06Where am I?
00:45:09Didn't I die?
00:45:10What do you want?
00:45:15You...
00:45:16Are you...
00:45:18By lineage, you may call me Grand Ancestor.
00:45:21Grand Ancestor?
00:45:24Then...
00:45:25Does that make you the Founding Empress of Lunaria?
00:45:31Enough, Cheryl Tober.
00:45:33Time is short.
00:45:34I'll be direct.
00:45:36I intend to take you as my disciple.
00:45:38Are you willing?
00:45:39A disciple?
00:45:40But now I'm...
00:45:44Just a useless cripple.
00:45:46Your meridians are shattered.
00:45:48But that was the past.
00:45:50Now I can help you reclaim your power.
00:45:52And ascend even higher.
00:45:54Become invincible across Lunaria.
00:45:58Remember this.
00:45:59Today is...
00:46:00The day your beloved marries Sue Twilba.
00:46:02If you hesitate, your sweetheart.
00:46:07You'll become another's husband.
00:46:13Disciple Cheryl Twilba pays respects to her master.
00:46:18Enough.
00:46:21Cheryl, you possess the Phoenix Constitution.
00:46:24Shattered meridians mean disaster for most.
00:46:27But for you, there's a chance for Phoenix Rebirth.
00:46:31No, I'll use this jade's pocket dimension to awaken your potential.
00:46:57Your Highness, Cheryl Twilba is dead.
00:46:59When I go after him.
00:47:04You could never defeat me.
00:47:07Martin will be mine.
00:47:09Watch from your grave as we wed.
00:47:11My strength.
00:47:20It's truly returned.
00:47:22Not just restored, but amplified beyond my former peak.
00:47:27Now, if David faces me, three moves will end him.
00:47:32Disciple.
00:47:33I know you've endured unimaginable suffering.
00:47:36So on this journey, act as your heart dictates.
00:47:40Even if you shake the heavens, none shall harm you while I draw breath.
00:47:44Thank you, Master.
00:47:46Thank you, Master.
00:47:51You are reaching the grudges of the past.
00:47:54Today, I will repay them tenfold.
00:47:57Martin Murong.
00:48:09If you don't want the Murong family to live in constant turmoil,
00:48:14you'd better cooperate with me today.
00:48:16Cooperate?
00:48:17You want me, Martin Murong, to marry a vicious woman with no conscience?
00:48:23Is this your scheme?
00:48:25What do you mean?
00:48:28Sue Twilba.
00:48:29You promised to spare Cheryl Twilba.
00:48:32Why send assassins?
00:48:35How did you?
00:48:36Secrets never stay buried when evil deeds are done.
00:48:43Sue Twilba.
00:48:45The sight of you sickens me to the core.
00:48:49Our past grievances end here today.
00:48:57Martin Murong.
00:48:59If the Murong clan values their future peace,
00:49:03you'll marry me now.
00:49:04Bow to heaven and earth.
00:49:11Martin Murong.
00:49:17Honor your ancestors.
00:49:29Spouses bow to each other.
00:49:34To Twilba, face your judgment.
00:49:53Cheryl Twilba, what are you doing here?
00:49:56Didn't you...
00:49:57Wasn't I supposed to be dead by your hand, right?
00:50:00Cheryl, you're alive.
00:50:03Am I dreaming?
00:50:05Of course not.
00:50:06Martin.
00:50:09You shouldn't have come today.
00:50:11Sue won't let you off the hook.
00:50:12Go now.
00:50:13I'll hold her back.
00:50:16Since this bitch showed up today,
00:50:18she's not leaving alive.
00:50:20Today,
00:50:20I'm not going anywhere.
00:50:22You ruined me before.
00:50:24Sent assassins after me.
00:50:25All these grievances will be settled today.
00:50:29All these grievances will be settled today.
00:50:29Settled?
00:50:30Ha ha ha.
00:50:32Cheryl Twilba,
00:50:33are you foolish or just naive?
00:50:36Don't tell me you think regaining your strength by luck makes you my match.
00:50:41Remember this, Cheryl Twilba.
00:50:43You're now nothing but a lone wolf.
00:50:47While I am about to be crowned Crown Princess of Punaria,
00:50:51next ruler of the United Realms.
00:50:55You stole it all from me with underhanded tricks.
00:50:58Sue Twilba,
00:50:59how dare you flaunt stolen glory?
00:51:01Silence!
00:51:02The Crown Princess title was rightfully mine.
00:51:05No theft needed.
00:51:06Truth or lies,
00:51:08you know in your heart.
00:51:09Enough, Cheryl Twilba.
00:51:11You're just a stray dog now.
00:51:13If I hadn't revoked your wanted status,
00:51:15you wouldn't even be standing here today.
00:51:18Huh.
00:51:19You're all right.
00:51:21Then today I'll fight for that light.
00:51:25Hmm.
00:51:26You're unworthy.
00:51:28Then today,
00:51:30I'll carve my worth with steel.
00:51:32Hmm.
00:51:33You, how pathetic.
00:51:36Guards.
00:51:39The fugitive Cheryl Twilba plans to harm me.
00:51:42All troops heed my order.
00:51:44Show no mercy.
00:51:45Who dares lay hands?
00:51:48Martin Murong,
00:51:49what's the meaning of this?
00:51:51Need I remind you?
00:51:52You're now my
00:51:52Sue Twilba's royal consort?
00:51:55Sue Twilba,
00:51:56our wedding ceremony,
00:51:59remains unconsummated.
00:52:00We're not truly wed.
00:52:02Martin Murong,
00:52:03do you comprehend your words?
00:52:05Do you truly choose
00:52:07to side with this wench against me?
00:52:10Martin Murong,
00:52:12return this instant.
00:52:13Must you plunge the Murong household
00:52:15into utter chaos?
00:52:16Is this your aim?
00:52:18Father,
00:52:19all my life,
00:52:21I've followed your teachings.
00:52:22But I'm human,
00:52:23not your puppet.
00:52:24I have my own heart,
00:52:26my own love.
00:52:28You ungrateful wretch!
00:52:29What madness drives you?
00:52:31This time,
00:52:33I, Martin Murong,
00:52:34will live for myself.
00:52:36Cheryl Twilba has my heart.
00:52:38Harm her,
00:52:39and you'll walk through my corpse first.
00:52:42Traitorous spawn,
00:52:43you violin great.
00:52:47Cheryl Twilba,
00:52:48this is your scheme?
00:52:50Did you truly believe
00:52:51Martin Murong's protection
00:52:53would save you today?
00:52:57Martin, step aside.
00:52:58This is between
00:52:59Twilba and me.
00:53:02Cheryl,
00:53:03Sue,
00:53:03she fears my chancellor status
00:53:05won't strike me.
00:53:06But if you...
00:53:07Martin,
00:53:08trust me,
00:53:10these lackeys
00:53:11can't bless me.
00:53:13Very well.
00:53:14I trust you.
00:53:16But stay vigilant.
00:53:19Play your skill.
00:53:22Latch your arrogance!
00:53:23Attack!
00:53:24Seize the traitor!
00:53:25Traitor!
00:53:28Do it!
00:53:33Sings this traitor!
00:53:45How is this possible?
00:53:47What dark art have you mastered?
00:53:48Why has your power
00:53:50improved so drastically?
00:53:51It's not that I've improved
00:53:52too much,
00:53:53but that you've stagnated.
00:53:55You only scheme and plot.
00:53:57A frog in a well.
00:53:59Arrogant.
00:54:01I think you,
00:54:02Cheryl Twilba,
00:54:03are just bluffing.
00:54:04Recently,
00:54:05I've had David's guidance.
00:54:07My strength is now unmatched.
00:54:11Take this!
00:54:12Impossible!
00:54:24Even if you miraculously
00:54:25regained your power,
00:54:27you shouldn't be this strong.
00:54:28Sue Twilba,
00:54:34the reason for this.
00:54:36A dying person like you
00:54:37doesn't deserve to know.
00:54:39Cheryl Twilba,
00:54:40you want to kill me?
00:54:48Empress,
00:54:49are you all right?
00:54:50I'm fine,
00:54:52but I feel a little uneasy.
00:54:53Today is Sue's
00:54:55involvement and wedding.
00:54:57We should be happy.
00:54:59Why the unease?
00:55:00Some time ago,
00:55:01that masked man
00:55:01kidnapped the traitor
00:55:02Cheryl Twilba.
00:55:04But until now,
00:55:05we haven't found
00:55:06his whereabouts.
00:55:07I...
00:55:08Just a masked man.
00:55:10Nothing to worry about.
00:55:12Besides,
00:55:12this is the capital
00:55:13of Lunaria.
00:55:14800,000 guards
00:55:15are stationed here.
00:55:17Moreover,
00:55:18my great ancestor
00:55:19is also cultivating here.
00:55:21Even if these thieves
00:55:22had 10,000 times
00:55:23the guts,
00:55:23they wouldn't dare
00:55:24cause trouble here.
00:55:26Your Majesty,
00:55:27I heard that
00:55:28the great ancestor
00:55:29entered a sect
00:55:30and mastered
00:55:31a powerful technique
00:55:32that can maintain
00:55:33eternal youth.
00:55:35Is this true?
00:55:37It should be true.
00:55:39But my great ancestor
00:55:40hasn't appeared
00:55:42in many years.
00:55:43I've only seen
00:55:44her portrait
00:55:44in the royal ancestral hall.
00:55:52Everyone's here.
00:55:53It's time to settle things.
00:55:55Mr. Twilba,
00:55:58of course I want you dead.
00:56:00Cheryl Twilba,
00:56:02I am now
00:56:02the crown princess,
00:56:04the future empress
00:56:05of the United Realms
00:56:06of Lunaria.
00:56:07If you dare kill me,
00:56:08you'll be defying
00:56:09the entire
00:56:10United Realms
00:56:11of Lunaria.
00:56:12Spare me,
00:56:13your bluster.
00:56:14The scheming wretch
00:56:15like you
00:56:15will never rule
00:56:16our United Realms
00:56:17of Lunaria.
00:56:18If the United Realms
00:56:19fall into your hands,
00:56:21they'll surely
00:56:22meet ruin.
00:56:22Guards,
00:56:23protect me!
00:56:24Are you all
00:56:25damn blue?
00:56:35Cheryl Twilba,
00:56:37I was wrong.
00:56:39I admit
00:56:39my mistakes.
00:56:41I shouldn't have
00:56:41tormented you
00:56:42and your mother,
00:56:43nor coveted
00:56:44your position
00:56:45as crown princess.
00:56:46Grant me
00:56:47one more chance.
00:56:48I don't want
00:56:49to die.
00:56:52Sue Twilba,
00:56:54you claim remorse now.
00:56:56But where was
00:56:56this conscience
00:56:57when you crippled
00:56:58my meridians
00:56:58and sent a fashions
00:56:59after me?
00:57:00Where was your mercy
00:57:01then?
00:57:01Cheryl Twilba,
00:57:02I acted in foolish haste,
00:57:04but I truly changed.
00:57:06No,
00:57:07this is remorse,
00:57:08just fear of death.
00:57:10Sue Twilba,
00:57:11perish.
00:57:15Emperor,
00:57:15take your hand!
00:57:19release my daughter!
00:57:44How dare you!
00:57:45Do I!
00:57:49You wretch!
00:57:50How dare you!
00:57:51How dare you!
00:57:51Why wouldn't I dare?
00:57:53She tried to kill me,
00:57:54yet I can't retaliate?
00:57:55Is that your twisted logic?
00:57:57In this world,
00:57:58how can such injustice exist?
00:58:01Cheryl Twilba,
00:58:02you traitor!
00:58:04Sue,
00:58:05she was my daughter,
00:58:07chosen by the grand ancestor
00:58:09as his disciple,
00:58:12the new crown princess,
00:58:14Sue.
00:58:15Even if she orders
00:58:16your death
00:58:17a hundred times,
00:58:18a thousand times,
00:58:19you will obey!
00:58:22How laughable.
00:58:23Does Lova justify
00:58:25endless torment?
00:58:27Lyra Huangfu,
00:58:28now you dare speak
00:58:29of understanding
00:58:31a mother's pain.
00:58:34Cheryl Twilba,
00:58:35you schemed for the throne
00:58:36and plunged the capital
00:58:38into chaos,
00:58:39murdered your own sister.
00:58:41Think your martial prowess
00:58:43makes you above the law?
00:58:44You're wrong.
00:58:46I came not to prove
00:58:47my strength,
00:58:48but to reclaim
00:58:49our dignity.
00:58:50For my mother and me,
00:58:51I'll take back
00:58:52what's ours,
00:58:52what I've lost.
00:58:54I'll reclaim
00:58:54with my own hands
00:58:55every last piece.
00:58:56Reclaim it?
00:58:57With your strength?
00:58:59Delusional.
00:59:01Your Majesty,
00:59:03Cheryl murdered publicly.
00:59:04She defies all law.
00:59:06I beg you to execute her
00:59:07without delay.
00:59:09Avenge Sue!
00:59:10Empress,
00:59:11Sue's death
00:59:12won't be in vain.
00:59:12Ungrateful wretch!
00:59:15Deal!
00:59:16Even to Oba,
00:59:17you're unworthy
00:59:18of my respect.
00:59:20When I knelt
00:59:20begging for mercy,
00:59:21you showed no compassion.
00:59:23Your favoritism pursued me.
00:59:25Severed our bond forever.
00:59:27It's gone.
00:59:28Enough!
00:59:29I gave you life!
00:59:31I remain your father.
00:59:33Kneel when commanded!
00:59:34Now kneel!
00:59:35Even to Oba,
00:59:37hear your hypocrisy?
00:59:38How ironic!
00:59:39In your eyes,
00:59:41I never existed.
00:59:42Yet demand filial piety?
00:59:44Disgrace!
00:59:45You'll pay for this!
00:59:49Your Majesty!
00:59:55Your strength
00:59:56has progressed so rapidly!
00:59:59You're not worthy to know.
01:00:00Your Majesty!
01:00:02This person
01:00:03must have practiced
01:00:04forbidden arts.
01:00:05Send the Imperial Guards
01:00:06to arrest her.
01:00:07Execute her on the spot.
01:00:08Cheryl to Oba,
01:00:09before I officially
01:00:10mobilize the guard,
01:00:11I'll grant you
01:00:12one last chance.
01:00:13Surrender now!
01:00:14Why should we surrender?
01:00:16She should be executed
01:00:17immediately.
01:00:18Enough!
01:00:20Our decree stands
01:00:21for good reason.
01:00:22Cheryl to Oba,
01:00:24in remembrance of our
01:00:25father-daughter bond,
01:00:26I offer you
01:00:27final mercy.
01:00:28Do not squander
01:00:29this chance!
01:00:30Even to Oba.
01:00:31You remain blind
01:00:32to truth
01:00:32consumed by arrogance.
01:00:34If you seek my death,
01:00:36then strike.
01:00:38I, Cheryl to Oba,
01:00:39fear nothing.
01:00:41You've chosen
01:00:42the hard way.
01:00:43Blame not our wrath.
01:00:45My royal decree,
01:00:46summon the Imperial Guards.
01:00:47Purge the traitors
01:00:48in this manner.
01:00:53Advance!
01:00:53But spare vital areas.
01:00:55Cease this madness!
01:01:05Ignore her!
01:01:06Continue the assault!
01:01:07Peter Huangfu,
01:01:08you dare obstruct!
01:01:09Who are you?
01:01:10The royal will!
01:01:12You...
01:01:13You're the great ancestor?
01:01:17You're the grand ancestor?
01:01:20You're a grand ancestor?
01:01:21Your descendant,
01:01:22Ivan Prova,
01:01:23pays respects
01:01:23to the grand ancestor.
01:01:25Hail the grand ancestor!
01:01:34Master?
01:01:37Master!
01:01:38Master!
01:01:40She...
01:01:41Is Cheryl to Oba's master?
01:01:43How is this possible?
01:01:45Silence!
01:01:46Are you daft?
01:01:49I acknowledge my fault.
01:01:51I didn't hear clearly earlier.
01:01:52Cheryl is honored to be
01:01:55the grand ancestor's disciple.
01:01:56As her father,
01:01:57I'm overjoyed for Cheryl.
01:01:59Enough, Ivan Prova.
01:02:00Stop making excuses here.
01:02:03Your relationship with Cheryl
01:02:04has long been known to me.
01:02:05Grand ancestor.
01:02:06That's enough, Ivan Prova.
01:02:08No more explanations.
01:02:09These past days,
01:02:10your actions have not
01:02:11escaped my notice.
01:02:12You may be a good emperor,
01:02:14but you're no proper father
01:02:15or devoted husband.
01:02:16Grand ancestor!
01:02:17I may have erred,
01:02:19but it was Cheryl to Oba
01:02:20and her mother
01:02:20who colluded with
01:02:21the Union of Jutland first.
01:02:23Colluding with
01:02:23the Union of Jutland?
01:02:25That damned Union of Jutland
01:02:26is clearly
01:02:26Lyra Huangfu's faction
01:02:28fabricating lies.
01:02:29Only a fool like you
01:02:30would believe such nonsense.
01:02:32But David clearly defeated
01:02:33Cheryl to Oba easily.
01:02:35This proves Cheryl to Oba
01:02:36possesses no real combat skills.
01:02:38She's obviously staged this act
01:02:40with the Union of Jutland.
01:02:41Oh, easily defeated?
01:02:43To Oba, Yuan.
01:02:45Do you know that if Cheryl
01:02:46hadn't been injured
01:02:47in the martial tournament,
01:02:48David might not have beaten her?
01:02:50How could this be the truth?
01:02:52Lyra Huangfu,
01:02:53you've deceived me all along.
01:02:57So what if I deceived you?
01:03:00Cheryl to Oba
01:03:01was born of lonely status.
01:03:03That mother-daughter pair
01:03:04is utterly unworthy.
01:03:06She's unfit to be crowned princess.
01:03:09Shut your filthy mouth.
01:03:11Stop insulting my mother.
01:03:13You dare strike me?
01:03:15I am the queen
01:03:16of United Realms of Lunaria,
01:03:17ruler of the Imperial Harem.
01:03:19You were?
01:03:20Not anymore.
01:03:24Eva and Tuoba,
01:03:26this venomous-hearted woman,
01:03:28to be empress
01:03:29of the United Realms of Lunaria,
01:03:31you disgrace the United Realms
01:03:32of Lunaria.
01:03:33I will strip her of the throne.
01:03:35Any objections?
01:03:37All shall follow
01:03:38the Grand Ancestors' will.
01:03:40Your Majesty,
01:03:41Gods!
01:03:42Take Lyra Huangfu
01:03:43to the Imperial prison.
01:03:45No visitors permitted.
01:03:46Unacceptable.
01:03:47You dare treat me this way?
01:03:48I am Lunaria's
01:03:49rightful empress,
01:03:50sovereign of the Imperial court.
01:03:52This is treason.
01:03:53Unhand me.
01:03:54Take her away.
01:03:55Relief me!
01:03:57Cheryl,
01:03:58I was blinded
01:03:59by sycophant's lies.
01:04:01The fault is entirely mine.
01:04:02I hereby restore
01:04:03your crowned princess status
01:04:05and crowned Warlow as empress.
01:04:07Does this satisfy you?
01:04:09Even to Oban.
01:04:10What you owe my mother
01:04:11transcends mere Imperial titles.
01:04:14Cheryl,
01:04:16henceforth I shall
01:04:16redouble care for you both.
01:04:20May you now
01:04:21not disappoint my mother again.
01:04:23Heaven's chosen ruler,
01:04:24Imperial decrees
01:04:26are irrevocable.
01:04:34Cheryl!
01:04:35Cheryl!
01:04:37Cheryl!
01:04:38Grand Ancestor,
01:04:39what of Cheryl?
01:04:39Clearly I underestimated
01:04:44the Awakened Phoenix's power.
01:04:46Even to Oba!
01:04:47Seal the perimeter!
01:04:48By your command.
01:04:55Grand Ancestor,
01:04:56is Cheryl okay?
01:04:59She's stable for now.
01:05:01Most of Cheryl's
01:05:01Phoenix physique power
01:05:02has been temporarily sealed.
01:05:04As long as I'm here,
01:05:06Cheryl will be safe.
01:05:09Your Majesty,
01:05:10Cheryl actually has
01:05:11the legendary Phoenix physique.
01:05:13They say it can master
01:05:14all five Divine Arts.
01:05:15Why didn't you tell me sooner?
01:05:17With that Sorcerous Queen around,
01:05:19would you have believed me
01:05:20if I told you earlier?
01:05:22Enough!
01:05:23When Cheryl wakes up,
01:05:25I'll have her join
01:05:25Phoenix Heavens sect.
01:05:26My master will help her
01:05:27fully control
01:05:28the Phoenix physique.
01:05:30Grand Ancestor,
01:05:31Cheryl only accessed
01:05:32a fraction of the Phoenix power.
01:05:33Yet she's unmatched
01:05:34in Lunaria.
01:05:35If she masters it completely,
01:05:37imagine the consequences.
01:05:38The Phoenix physique
01:05:39is a divine rarity.
01:05:41Once Cheryl fully
01:05:42controls its power,
01:05:44no one in this world
01:05:45could challenge her.
01:05:49Your unfilial disciple,
01:05:50Tova Yulan,
01:05:51requests audience.
01:05:58Master!
01:05:59Little Tova,
01:06:00you lost the sect
01:06:01for 30 years.
01:06:02Do I still matter to you?
01:06:04Master!
01:06:04I admit my wrongdoing.
01:06:06I'll accept punishment later,
01:06:08but first,
01:06:09please save my disciple.
01:06:10She needs your help now.
01:06:12You took a disciple?
01:06:15This is the Phoenix physique.
01:06:17Yes, master.
01:06:19Cheryl possesses the Phoenix physique,
01:06:21but can't control its power,
01:06:22despite awakening it.
01:06:24Therefore,
01:06:24come inside, quickly!
01:06:27Understood.
01:06:27Cheryl, how do you feel now?
01:06:40After Grandmaster's treatment,
01:06:45the Phoenix energy in me
01:06:46has stabilized.
01:06:48I can finally,
01:06:49truly control this power.
01:06:54Cheryl Tova.
01:06:55You'll die a horrible death,
01:06:57a cursed end,
01:06:58damned forever!
01:07:00You were the Empress,
01:07:00living in luxury,
01:07:01yet you provoked
01:07:02the Grand Princess.
01:07:03You deserve this.
01:07:04Silence!
01:07:07What now?
01:07:08Still acting like the Empress?
01:07:09You're just a prisoner now.
01:07:10Can't even leave this cell.
01:07:12You...
01:07:13You...
01:07:14General...
01:07:22General Huang Fu.
01:07:23General Huang Fu.
01:07:39Brother,
01:07:40your sister has suffered greatly.
01:07:41Explain the situation.
01:07:45Cheryl Tova.
01:07:47To secure the Crown Princess position.
01:07:51She used her martial prowess
01:07:52to slander me before His Majesty.
01:07:56Now I rot in this dungeon.
01:07:58Sue died because of her.
01:08:00Sister,
01:08:01this is outrageous.
01:08:03How dare they treat
01:08:04our Huang Fu clan this way?
01:08:07Fear not.
01:08:08I've mastered divine techniques.
01:08:09Even the Founding Empress
01:08:11couldn't defeat me now.
01:08:13I'll make this right.
01:08:15But currently,
01:08:16Cheryl Tova is Crown Princess.
01:08:19Favored by His Majesty.
01:08:21Even with Supreme Martial skills,
01:08:23it's still...
01:08:24Hmph.
01:08:25Worry not.
01:08:26I've allied with the Jutland Union.
01:08:29Once I seize the Imperial Seal
01:08:31and kill that false emperor,
01:08:33then,
01:08:34when Jutland's arms arrive,
01:08:35we'll strike from within
01:08:36and without.
01:08:37Lunaria will have new rulers.
01:08:40I'll bring Cheryl's head myself
01:08:42to honor Sue's spirit.
01:08:46Move out.
01:08:53This is...
01:08:54the Imperial Seal.
01:08:57Correct.
01:08:58When Cheryl returns from Fengtian sect,
01:09:01I'll abdicate in her favor.
01:09:04Cheryl is young,
01:09:05but is she ready?
01:09:07I've decided.
01:09:09I grow old.
01:09:11The throne needs new blood.
01:09:13Cheryl is wise and bold,
01:09:15the perfect successor.
01:09:17With you and the Grand Ancestor's guidance,
01:09:20she'll rule Lunaria wisely.
01:09:25Regarding past events,
01:09:27I owe you,
01:09:28and Cheryl,
01:09:29my deepest regrets.
01:09:30Let this be my atonement.
01:09:34I beg your forgiveness.
01:09:35I long neglected you all these years.
01:09:38Let the past remain in the past.
01:09:41No need to dwell on it.
01:09:47Let bygones be bygones.
01:09:49But Sue's life,
01:09:50how can that be forgiven?
01:09:54Wong Fu,
01:09:54the frontier is collapsing.
01:09:56As Lunaria's Grand General,
01:09:58you abandon your post,
01:10:00defy military law,
01:10:01and return to court unauthorized.
01:10:02You favor Cheryl Twoba and her daughter,
01:10:04yet disrespect my family.
01:10:07Expecting my continued loyalty?
01:10:08How dare you
01:10:09insult his majesty like this?
01:10:11Stop!
01:10:12Start palm strike!
01:10:29You've practiced forbidden arts!
01:10:30Ha ha ha!
01:10:32How else did you think
01:10:33I dominated every battle?
01:10:35Know this!
01:10:36I've mastered divine techniques
01:10:37and collaborated with Jumper.
01:10:39Surrender the Imperial Seal now,
01:10:41and bring me Cheryl's head
01:10:42to avenge Sue.
01:10:44This is your only mercy.
01:10:46She wronged us first.
01:10:47She brought this upon herself.
01:10:48Silence!
01:10:49You killed Sue!
01:10:51You monsters!
01:10:53Your majesty,
01:10:55I loved you wholeheartedly,
01:10:57yet you showed no marital mercy.
01:11:00No justice for Sue.
01:11:01You've earned this fate.
01:11:04Brother,
01:11:04bend them all!
01:11:05Donnie!
01:11:06Donnie!
01:11:07Donnie!
01:11:08Donnie!
01:11:09Donnie!
01:11:10Donnie!
01:11:11Donnie!
01:11:12Donnie!
01:11:13Donnie!
01:11:14Donnie!
01:11:15Donnie!
01:11:16Listen, Will.
01:11:17After I'm gone,
01:11:18name Cheryl's successor.
01:11:20Her brilliance
01:11:21will safeguard our realm.
01:11:23Take the seal and flee.
01:11:25Now!
01:11:26Escaping?
01:11:27Donnie!
01:11:28No!
01:11:29No!
01:11:33No!
01:11:34No!
01:11:36No!
01:11:37No!
01:11:38No!
01:11:41No!
01:11:42Your majesty
01:11:46Sire
01:11:52Patience
01:11:54Your turn comes now
01:11:56My daughter's killers
01:11:59Will all pay dearly
01:12:01Outrageous
01:12:04The phoenix force is mine
01:12:08Urgent news
01:12:10Princess disaster strikes
01:12:11What happened
01:12:12General Huangfu storms the palace to seize the imperial seal
01:12:16What
01:12:17To Lunaria
01:12:19Ride with me
01:12:20At once
01:12:21How dare you
01:12:26Your majesty
01:12:30General Huangfu
01:12:36Given your years of service in the united realms of Lunaria
01:12:39Your merits may offset this offense
01:12:41But persist in your delusions
01:12:43Then I'll show no mercy
01:12:44Stay out of this
01:12:46Or more than just them
01:12:47Will die today
01:12:48Oh
01:12:50Then try me
01:12:51Brother
01:12:59While I remain in the united realms of Lunaria
01:13:06You'll never take the imperial seal
01:13:07Your skills remain sharp
01:13:15But it's futile
01:13:16Even you
01:13:17Can't defeat me now
01:13:19Your majesty
01:13:32Your majesty
01:13:33Old men should know their limits
01:13:38Your aged bones stand no chance against me
01:13:41Surrender peacefully and summon Cheryl Tuoba to die
01:13:46I'll make it quick
01:13:47I'll make it quick
01:13:47Absurd
01:13:48That girl
01:13:49Scented phoenix heaven sect's trial hall
01:13:52She'll soon master the phoenix physique
01:13:55And earn the sect master's approval
01:13:58Your heretic methods
01:13:59Are no match for her
01:14:02The phoenix physique reigns supreme
01:14:04That bastard child
01:14:06There's clay mastery
01:14:07A girl barely twenty reaching martial arts
01:14:12Pinnacle
01:14:12Earning the sect master's favor
01:14:15Even I never gained her regard
01:14:17She's a prodigy
01:14:19You're unworthy to stand in her shadow
01:14:21Defiant till death
01:14:22And witness this unworthy one's true power
01:14:25General Huangfu
01:14:41Huangqubani Xia
01:14:42Mother
01:14:43Master
01:14:44I'm too late
01:14:45Was worried how to find you
01:14:49Now you're delivering yourself to me
01:14:52Huangquli
01:14:53You'll pay for my daughter's life
01:14:55Today
01:14:56I'll end this feud with my own hands
01:14:59Are you alright concubine Xia?
01:15:12I'm fine
01:15:13This is your so called divine prodigy?
01:15:16Huangfu Li
01:15:17Your silver tongue means nothing
01:15:19In the end
01:15:20The united realms of Lunaria
01:15:22Belongs to the Huangfu clan
01:15:24You died today
01:15:26To celebrate our clan's ascension to power
01:15:29You claim to control all
01:15:33But truth is
01:15:35The Huangfu clan's fate
01:15:36Hangs by my will
01:15:38You dare?
01:15:43Phoenix reborn
01:15:44Path becomes present
01:15:45Crown ablaze
01:15:47Spirit awakened
01:15:49Father
01:16:00How is this possible?
01:16:08She actually pierced through my ancient battle armor
01:16:10Such formidable power
01:16:12Could she have awakened the phoenix physique?
01:16:16Cheryl has truly mastered the phoenix form
01:16:17The phoenix fades in flames
01:16:21Through rebirth by fire
01:16:23Shall soar beyond the heavens
01:16:24I underestimated you earlier
01:16:28Now let me
01:16:29Experience first hand
01:16:31This awakened phoenix physique
01:16:33I refuse to believe
01:16:35Thirty years of rigorous training
01:16:37Can't surpass some young girl
01:16:38Martial arts mastery lies not in years spent
01:16:42But in comprehension
01:16:43General Huangfu
01:16:44Today marks your defeat
01:16:46How could someone like her
01:16:48Possibly defeat my brother?
01:16:50My brother is the undefeated war general
01:16:52For the fine general
01:16:54Blind to morality
01:16:55Traitor to the crowd
01:16:57You disgraced the title completely
01:16:58You
01:16:59Cheryl Tuoba
01:17:01Now witness the true power of my black palm technique
01:17:04Consider this your final lesson
01:17:07Rubik! Rubik!
01:17:34Your screams won't help you now
01:17:42You took that punch
01:17:43Your organs are shattered
01:17:45No
01:17:47It can't be
01:17:48My brother was a general
01:17:51He
01:17:51You
01:18:00First you killed Sue
01:18:02Now you destroy the Huangfu family
01:18:05You'll pay with your lives
01:18:07Give Sue back to me
01:18:08Give me back my brother
01:18:09You brought this upon yourself
01:18:11You're both mothers
01:18:13How could you be so heartless
01:18:15You used your queen's authority
01:18:17To oppress me and my daughter
01:18:19Every single cruelty have you forgotten
01:18:22Back then you left us no way to survive
01:18:25Ha ha ha
01:18:26Herman like you
01:18:27Deserve to be beneath our feet
01:18:30Not sitting there looking down on me
01:18:32Guards
01:18:34Cheryl Tuoba
01:18:40Your highness your orders
01:18:41Lyra Huangfu colluded with Jutland
01:18:43Plotting to seize the throne
01:18:45Throw her in the dungeon
01:18:47Never to be released
01:18:50At once
01:18:50Cheryl Tuoba
01:18:51Cheryl Tuoba
01:18:52Cheryl Tuoba
01:18:53This is Cheryl
01:19:00This imperial seal left by your father
01:19:03Do you truly understand the weight it carries?
01:19:06Hmm

01:19:37No
01:19:38No
