[Fox Spirit Matchmaker: Red-Moon Pact]
[Episode 3]
Senior Fu.
Let the two of us go.
Senior Fu,
there must be some misunderstanding.
Look, we're all friends.
Yeah.
We've been allies for a long time.
There's no need to tie us up.
Let us go.
[Disciple of Divine Flame Villa, Fu Kui]
Who are you?
[Disciple of Divine Flame Villa, Fu Kui]
[Disciple of Divine Flame Villa, Fu Kui]
I'm Buzui, you fool.
Get him!
Take this.
What are you waiting for? Run!
Go away.
Tiger and Crane Immortals.
You're useless.
You had already caught them,
yet they were taken by someone else halfway.
Sorry, Master.
That fox spirit came out of nowhere
and caught us off guard.
Or we wouldn't have lost.
That stupid brat
actually colluded with Tushan to set me up.
The Tushan fox clan
has always been hiding in remote mountains.
Now that they've come to me with a death wish,
I might as well play along.
Go.
Tell those in Wangquan Manor
that fox spirits are attacking,
and we need help taking them down.
[Human Market]
The spiritual butterfly of Lady Fairy.
Tiger and Crane Immortals are in the tavern?
Make way. Make way.
Move aside. Move aside.
Fox spirits have launched an attack outside the market.
Everyone, go to the forest for defense.
Lady Fairy is here too?
Jin Renfeng can actually
create a formation with fog in no time.
Lady Fairy.
Why are you here?
Didn't you receive my message?
So they're really coming for you.
Jin Renfeng.
In terms of seniority,
you should call me Uncle.
You're doomed.
Before long,
the entire Yiqi Alliance will know your misdeeds.
Really?
By the way,
I forgot to tell you.
I've asked those from Wangquan Manor
to secure the perimeter.
As for those inside,
they're all my men.
I'll definitely free you from this fox spirit
and take you back to Divine Flame Villa myself.
It's been a long time,
and you've become even more despicable.
Have I?
Let me
impress you more.
You're dead!
Back off. I'll deal with him.
Lady Fairy, watch out!
Let me help you.
Jin Renfeng actually set up a formation in advance.
Stay put.
I didn't just set up a formation.
Gosh, I have divine power and set up a formation in advance
but still can't hurt Tushan Honghong in the slightest.
Lady Fairy,
are you alright?
Do you know you're wrong?
Yes.
What have you done wrong?
I…
I lied to you and made you mad.
I slacked off while practicing.
Go on.
There's more?
You knew Tiger and Crane Immortals were in the tavern.
Why did you come here despite the danger?
Because…
Because you are here.
The living are more important.
I was worried about you.
I can kill Tiger and Crane Immortals anytime.
But the chance to save someone
is usually fleeting.
If I had come earlier back then,
your parents might have survived.
That was not your fault.
If you're quick enough,
you still have time to kill those two old men.
Roast chicken.
Grilled chicken.
Mouth-watering chicken.
Poached chicken.
Bon Bon Chicken.
Scallion oil chicken.
Come on.
It's been eight hours.
Why can't you come up with a new chicken dish?
Keep writing.
Stay focused.
Crane.
What are the other ways to cook chicken?
Stay quiet.
Okay, okay.
Chief asked me to stall them
for four hours.
It's been eight hours.
It should be enough.
Mr. Buzui,
take a look…
Crane.
We're toast.
Not only Jin Renfeng wants us dead,
but spirits are also after us.
What should we do next?
So,
Jin Renfeng does have something to do
with the Dark Force.
He has the Dark Force in his body,
but he's not strong enough
to control that force
to erode the Grief Tree.
Chief, do you mean
someone else is behind Jin Renfeng?
Yes.
Now,
he's at the Human Market.
The defenses at Divine Flame Villa must be weak.
I want you to go there
and find out who's colluding with him.
Rest assured, Chief.
I'll take care of it.
Are you going back to Tushan now?
We're going the same way.
I need to wait for someone.
Wait for someone?
Who's it?
Is it related to the two scumbags
you asked me to stall?
I shall take my leave.
[Yuanqing Clinic]
Bitch.
Give us the antidote to Sorrowful Tear,
and we can spare your life today.
You can't kill Jin Renfeng,
so you're taking it out on a girl.
You two are indeed the scum of the Yiqi Alliance.
You little brat.
You should know better than to come to us.
Last time at Tushan,
you two escaped by luck.
This time,
I'll make you pay
for killing my parents
and coming after me.
It was you two
who robbed me of my happiness.
I just hope we can all be safe
and you two can live a long life.
You'll die today.
What's this?
This is Tushan's protection spell.
You're going to the Human Market tomorrow.
If something happens,
this spell
can protect you from one attack.
With your current cultivation,
you should be able to escape.
Stupid brat.
He escaped again.
I can detect Dongfang Blood on you.
You work for Jin Renfeng, don't you?
I need you to take a message to him.
He can twist the truth,
but he can't conceal it forever.
He got everything he has now by stealing.
I'll make him pay one day.
I'll give him a taste of being deserted by everyone
and displaced from his home.
Dad.
Mom.
I killed Tiger and Crane Immortals today.
I've taken half revenge for you.
I
also planted an orchid secretly.
But it never sprouted.
My mom told me
that in Divine Flame Villa,
there was an orchid
that was planted when she was born.
She often thought of it
but never got to go back to check on it.
After you take back Divine Flame Villa,
you can check on it for her.
Didn't you come to the Human Market this time
to seek revenge on Jin Renfeng?
You meant to let me out for revenge?
No.
You used me to lure out Jin Renfeng
because you wanted to deal with him too.
You're not that dumb.
But over the years,
Divine Flame Villa and Tushan
have stayed out of each other's way.
Why?
Anyway,
I don't object to you taking revenge on Jin Renfeng.
It's just that you must not act rashly.
Jin Renfeng is also Tushan's enemy.
You have to know that Jin Renfeng was just a beggar at first.
But in the end, he's gained Dongfang Blood
and taken control of Divine Flame Villa.
It's not because he has high cultivation,
but because he's scheming,
ruthless,
and patient.
You're right.
I'm too weak to take on him now.
Only when I am strong enough
can I tear off his hypocritical mask myself.
Rongrong.
Yaya.
Did you patrol the mountains all night again?
Honghong is not around. It's my duty to keep Tushan safe.
You can't even get two hours' sleep a day,
guarding Tushan like a fortress.
If Honghong knows it,
she'll be relieved.
She and the others will come back soon, right?
Yeah, in a day or two.
It's all that brat's fault.
He couldn't even collect bills.
He was always dilly-dallying.
I wonder if Honghong can rest well outside.
Yaya.
Why don't you go back for some rest?
You can resume patrolling later.
No way.
Back then,
when Honghong protected us
from that evil monster,
I swore
to protect whatever Honghong
wanted to protect.
I gotta go.
I'll go take a look around again.
Tushan is so great now.
Yaya
can protect Tushan too.
Okay.
You asked me to stay in the human clan
and said you needed to do something
just to come to this market?
Lady Fairy, since we're already here,
just think of it as revisiting an old place with me.
I won't do it again.
I didn't expect this market
to become much livelier than when I was a kid.
There are more shops
and more people.
Candied haws!
Lady Fairy, wait a minute.
Masks!
Masks for sale!
Masks!
Miss, you have good taste.
This is the best-selling mask here.
Would you like to try it on?
I want this one.
Okay.
Here you are.
Thank you.
Where is Lady Fairy?
You like this mask too?
Yes.
[Divine Flame Villa]
[Xiaoxiang Pavilion]
How do you think my day was?
Master, I don't dare take the liberty of guessing.
My day was great.
Although I didn't catch that brat myself,
I saw Dongfang Blood in him.
In the future,
I won't have any trouble finding him.
Do you agree?
Yes.
Jin Renfeng.
I'll find out who gave you that force.
[Tushan, the Grief Tree's heart]
[The Dark Grief Tree's heart]
[Tushan]
Every time you come back to Tushan,
you check on the Grief Tree first.
Did something happen
when I was gone?
Everything is fine.
But there's one thing
you need to decide on.
What is it?
According to the custom of Tushan,
there's a matchmaking event once every 100 years,
so that those spirits with true love
can ask for a Feathered Flower under the Grief Tree,
in order to protect their relationship.
It won't be long
before this event is due.
It will be held as scheduled.
But
I know.
You're worried that the spirits will find out
the secret about how
the Grief Tree has been infested by Dark Force.
But if we postpone it,
how do you think they'll react?
I see.
I suppose you have another consideration.
The Grief Tree will bear flowers for the spirits
and help them form relationships.
However, these relationships will also in turn feed the Grief Tree
and enhance its spiritual power.
You want to hold this event
so that more relationships can feed the Grief Tree,
and fight against the Dark Force from inside.
Am I right?
Yes.
Besides,
from the letter you sent,
you mentioned that you've sent our Elder to Divine Flame Villa to investigate.
Any news?
Not yet.
What's wrong?
Why is it that after practicing so many times,
the repercussions get worse and worse?
Lady Fairy.
What happened?
This is
Give me your hand.
Why are you so anxious for results?
I want to practice hard and improve my Purest Sun Flame
to the next level as soon as possible.
Only in this way
I can deal with Jin Renfeng
when I meet him again.
The more hasty you are, the more you won't reach your goal.
To cultivate Purest Sun Flame, you need to mobilize the spiritual blood in your whole body.
It's a tough test on your vascular system.
If we break through by force,
it will only hurt your heart
and damage your body.
But
Don't be anxious.
This time, a part of his wings has been removed.
If we keep going at it,
there'll be a time when we get rid of him completely.
Next time,
don't let me see your impatience again.
Okay.
Looks like I need another way
if I want to quickly improve my cultivation.
The Dinghai Rod and Thousand Demon Spell?
Back then, Aolai Sanshao used it
to draw the inner and outer circles.
How did you find such a realistic imitation
of Dinghai Rod?
If you put in both time and effort,
you'll get lucky one day too.
My dear Yuechu,
there're still some things you want to learn about exorcism,
right?
I'm afraid you have to devote even more time,
besides answering my previous questions.
What would it take for you to give me Dinghai Rod?
Help me practice my exorcism move to a higher level.
This is from Aolai Sanshao.
The strongest spirit there is.
How many people wanted it but never got it?
Forget it if you don't want it.
Wait.
Deal.
[The sweet floral fragrance of Aolai, executing the Thousand Spirit Spell with Dinghai Rod]
Aolai Sanshao!
It’s him!
He's the only handsome man in the world.
What about the other spells of Tushan?
I'll teach!
He's human?
How dare you!
How dare you act recklessly in Tushan?
Damned human beings.
Let go of me!
You don't know me?
So,
you're the white fox they found?
I know you were bullied by the human race.
I'm different from other humans.
Be nice to me.
Yaya, remember to arrange a time.
Yaya,
-This human
-Aolai Sanshao used Dinghai Rod
to draw the inner and outer circles.
What a magnificient hero.
You came to me
just to ask me
to ban the human race in Tushan?
Chief,
Tushan is the home of our fox clan.
We shouldn't have let the humans come here.
We shouldn't let them do whatever they want.
The only human allowed within Tushan
will only be Yuechu.
I spent time with the human race in my early years.
So, I know they're treacherous and cunning.
They can do anything
for their own selfish desires.
They are even more cruel
and vicious than us foxes.
Lady Fairy!
Lady Fairy.
It's freshly roasted and smells so good.
There's nothing for you here.
Get out.
I've only heard of clingy dogs.
I've actually never seen a clingy fox before.
Who are you talking about?
Who do you think I am talking about?
-You, of course.
-Take it away.
I'm not eating.
Lady Fairy, this is freshly roasted.
I’ll get going, Lady Fairy.
Chief, look at him.
Even in front of you, he's so rude.
Let alone
when he is dealing with other foxes.
In that case,
keep an eye on him for me.
If he does something inappropriate,
we can discuss again then.
Okay.
Thank you, Chief.
How dare you steal Lady Fairy away from me?
I'll make you bald once I go back.
Yuechu!
What did you make this time?
Go away.
No.
I'm annoyed.
Let me smell it.
Don't snatch it.
Give it to me.
Let me see.
The Book of Demonic Spells.
Liushang.
When did you become so diligent?
You aren't reading the novels I brought you from human race,
but instead reading up on spells?
Give it back to me.
What? No.
Hey
Let me have a look at such a good book.
Give it back.
[The Book of Spirit Spells]
Maintaining a relationship requires constant change.
[The Book of Spirit Spells]
Maintaining a relationship requires constant change.
Perfect oneself.
To learn the art of love,
one must learn to communicate
and grow.
What's all this?
The signs of admiration.
The first sign,
jealousy.
That is, when you see them
with someone else,
you feel upset about it.
Secondly,
you can't help but think of each other.
Thirdly,
you're very attentive to each other's information.
Lady Fairy.
No way.
This little follower of mine
Could he have actually fallen for her, even though it's just an act?
Be careful.
I've been looking forward to this matchmaking event for a long time.
No detail
can be left sloppy.
Liushang.
It's so grand.
Is this matchmaking event really that important?
Of course.
The ceremony happens only once every 100 years.
It's the most important festival for our Demon Clan.
On that day,
all the male spirits
will come here
to ask for a Feathered Flower.
The male spirits comes here for the flower.
What about the female spirits?
The female spirits?
Of course it's to collect flowers too.
Only two spirits who
are in love with each other
can get a Feathered Flower each,
and be protected by the Grief Tree.
Can humans ask for a Feathered Flower from the Grief Tree too?
This grief tree
is the sacred tree of love within our Demon Clan.
So far,
no human has ever obtained a flower.
However,
why are you suddenly asking this?
Is there
a spirit you like?
Go away. Don't speculate.
So you are saying,
Yuechu is asking if humans can ask for a Feathered Flower?
Yes.
As a human,
he'll not be loyal to us spirits after all.
The matchmaking event is no small matter.
I’m worried he’s up to something,
so I came to report to you.
Apart from this,
anything else?
No.
Okay.
Keep following him.
Yes.
I won’t let you down, Chief.
I wanted Guoguo to have more contact with Yuechu,
so that he can resolve his resentment against the human race.
I didn't expect his hatred to run so deep.
It's up to him
to break free from it.
But why is Yuechu
asking if a human can ask for a Feathered Flower?
You like this mask too?
Lady Fairy
Why do I keep thinking
about her for no good reason?
When I see Lady Fairy later,
the first thing I'll say is,
"Lady Fairy,
I heard that you have not been well recently,
so I came to visit you."
No.
That's too polite.
Lady Fairy,
I painstakingly made this chicken soup with
lots of premium ingredients I had bought.
That sounded like I was emphasizing money.
How should I put it?
Come in.
Coming.
What do you want from me at this hour?
Lady Fairy, chicken soup.
Thank you.
But before the matchmaking event,
I cannot eat meat.
So, I can't drink your soup.
Take it back.
Okay.
Lady Fairy, I have something important to tell you.
Last time, Jin Renfeng failed.
He's not going to let it go.
Tushan will hold a matchmaking event soon.
At that time,
there will be a large number of foreign spirits who'll be coming in.
I'm afraid he'll try to sneak in.
to harm Tushan.
That's right.
As long as the Jin Renfeng is alive,
he'll always remain a threat to Tushan.
But Tushan can't stay in perpetual fear
and give up on our normal lives because of him.
In that case,
can I join the preparation?
I've been in Tushan for so many years.
Besides,
it's my duty to guard against Jin Renfeng.
If you want to,
go and help Yaya and Rongrong.
Okay.
It's late.
If there's nothing else,
go back.
Greetings, Spirit Lord.
You were unsuccessful
at the Human Market.
I
I made a mistake.
Do you remember what I said when I asked you to work with me?
Three chances.
You've already lost one.
The matchmaking event of Tushan is around the corner.
I need you to do something for me.
Well
That won't be easy.
Does that mean
you can’t do it?
I’ll definitely try my best.
But that Tushan Honghong is a powerful spirit.
I'm worried
Don't worry.
I know how to deal with her.
But speaking of which,
her weakness
has something to do with your Divine Flame Villa.
The matchmaking event
