Short filmTranscript
00:00The wedding bells of Mount Olympus had barely faded when everything was torn from me.
00:06The Wolf King, Draco, before the assembled gods, ripped out my heartstone and slaughtered my entire serpent plan.
00:13I remember my soul scattering, slipping into nothing until...
00:18The King of the Underworld tore through the void itself.
00:22He gave up half his divine power, used the cursed waters of the River Styx to hold me together,
00:28to save me. For 300 years, he healed me, cherished me, made me his queen.
00:34When I carried his child, he built me a palace, warm, perfect, just like home.
00:39I thought I was saved, until that day.
00:42You have implanted the spirit of your late wife, Scarlet, into Savine's body.
00:47After she gives birth to the child, what do you intend to do?
00:50That silver scale armor of hers is as hard as rock.
00:52I'll peel it off and make new battle armor for Scarlet.
00:54Then I'll refine her serpent body.
00:56Within a year, Scarlet will be fully restored.
00:58I've waited 800 years for this day.
01:06Isn't that too cruel?
01:08She is carrying your child.
01:10She was a dying creature.
01:11I gave her 300 years of new life with half my divine power,
01:14fed her with every rare treasure in the underworld.
01:17Now it's time to return that fortune to Scarlet.
01:19I was struck as if by lightning, stumbling back to my chamber in tears.
01:23My maid Lily was already searching everywhere for me.
01:26My body shook uncontrollably.
01:27It was exactly like that day 800 years ago,
01:31when the wolf king Draco turned on me during our wedding,
01:34tore out my heartstone, and nearly destroyed me.
01:38Hades had saved me, married me, made me believe in true love.
01:42But now I understood.
01:43He had only ever seen me as a vessel to bear Scarlet.
01:50My lady is afraid of the cold.
01:52The king ordered that you must take your tonic by noon.
01:55He also sent me to find snakeberries,
01:57the ones that grow on cliffs,
01:58and fruit only once every hundred years.
02:01For 300 years, Hades had treated me like a treasure.
02:04The underworld was cold, so he built me a warm palace.
02:07Afraid I would grow bored, he moved his throne there,
02:09and kept me company while he worked.
02:11The half of his divine power he had sacrificed
02:13left him with chronic pain whenever he overworked.
02:16His blood would reverse, and his whole body would ache.
02:19But he always smiled, and said that as long as I was safe,
02:22any sacrifice was worth it.
02:24Only now did I realize, that tonic wasn't for me.
02:27It was for the ghost fetus inside me,
02:29to make Scarlet come faster.
02:31For 300 years, he had never taken me to Mount Olympus,
02:34saying my demon body was too unstable
02:36to withstand the divine thunder trial.
02:38But rather than wait to be skinned and refined
02:39after giving birth to Scarlet,
02:41I might as well gamble on surviving the thunderbolts
02:44and retrieving my lost spirit.
02:45I swallowed a snakeberry, tears choking me,
02:48and swore to myself,
02:49I would never help him give birth to Scarlet.
02:54To calm the fetal movements on my own,
02:57I exhausted all my demon power.
02:59I coughed up a mouthful of blood
03:00that splattered onto a nearby chest,
03:02the dowry chest Hades had prepared when he married me.
03:05Gritting my teeth against the pain,
03:07I pulled out the blood-red wedding gown.
03:09He had challenged the young lord of the phoenix clan,
03:11seized a thousand years worth of fire phoenix feathers,
03:14and woven this gown for me with his own hand.
03:17At the wedding, guests from all realms gathered,
03:19and everyone envied me for winning such true devotion
03:22from the king of the underworld.
03:23I formed an ice spell,
03:25ready to destroy the gown and all the jewelry in the chest.
03:27Then Hades returned, smiling,
03:29as he asked if I had taken my medicine,
03:31and why I had taken out the wedding gown.
03:34I changed my mind, and asked him,
03:36I heard the young phoenix lord has been imprisoned
03:38in the divine realm for 300 years,
03:40because he lost his feathers.
03:42Since we're already married,
03:43why don't you take me to the divine realm
03:45and return them to him?
03:49Hades' face changed instantly.
03:51No! I want to keep this gown for...
03:54He stopped himself and changed his words.
03:56As a memento, it's a testament to our love.
03:58Besides, you're too weak.
04:00The divine realm would harm you.
04:02Be good. Put the gown back.
04:03What secret does the divine realm hold?
04:06Why can everyone else go, but not me?
04:08Anger flared in my chest
04:09as I remembered his conversation with the high priest.
04:12His usually gentle face showed displeasure.
04:14Why are you so stubborn?
04:15Would I ever hurt you?
04:17I hurled the ice spell at the gown, horrified.
04:20Hades forgot even his cold protection spell
04:22and rushed straight through the ice formation
04:23to snatch the gown back.
04:25Thank the gods I got it back.
04:26The hem of the gown fell from his embrace.
04:28I saw clearly the name embroidered on the inner lining.
04:31Scarlet.
04:32He had woven this gown himself.
04:34No one else had ever touched it.
04:35It was Scarlet's wedding gown.
04:37Never meant for me.
04:41Fury and humiliation washed over me.
04:44I raised my hand to destroy the treasures in the chest.
04:46Hades roared.
04:47Selenna!
04:48Have you lost your mind?
04:49If you keep this up, I'll throw you into Tartarus!
04:51I shuddered, my flushed face draining of color.
04:55Tartarus?
04:55The place where only the most heinous souls were sent?
04:58He would send me?
04:59Pregnant?
05:00There?
05:00Seeing my expression change,
05:02he reached out to embrace me,
05:04his voice softening.
05:05Little sec, I'm joking.
05:06Just admit you were wrong.
05:08Promise me you won't touch the dowry again,
05:10and I'll make you honey shortbread with my own hands, alright?
05:12Alright.
05:13I bit my lip and said nothing.
05:14He coaxed me, again and again.
05:16I shut my eyes and refused to look at him.
05:18Stubborn fool.
05:20Then go reflect on your mistakes.
05:22He summoned the guards and had me thrown into Tartarus.
05:25Tartarus held only the most evil souls.
05:28Broken limbs and bones littered the ground,
05:30and blood rivers splashed with every step.
05:32My demon power was weak.
05:34By the time I reached the sixth level,
05:36the Pillar of Bronze,
05:37my bones and sinews were already screaming in pain.
05:45My lady, why must you do this?
05:48The king's heart for you is clear as day.
05:51Couples fight.
05:52Just act a little coinish,
05:54and this will all blow over.
05:55No need to end up here.
05:57Knowing I was the king's beloved wife,
05:59they dared not be rough with me.
06:01Torture her!
06:02Useless creatures!
06:03Are you letting her enjoy herself?
06:06I looked down at my belly in horror.
06:08The voice was coming from inside me.
06:10It was Scarlet.
06:11She had cultivated sixth sense
06:13and could speak to her former subordinates
06:15from inside my womb.
06:18Lady Scarlet?
06:19Is it you?
06:20You're alive?
06:21Shut up!
06:22Since you know it's me,
06:23don't you dare go easy on this lowly snake demon.
06:26If you disobey me in the slightest,
06:28I'll make your lives hell when I'm born.
06:30The bull and horse guards exchanged a glance.
06:32They pressed me against the red-hot bronze pillar.
06:40If the first five levels of Tartarus
06:43had been only psychological torture,
06:45the next dozen levels physically ravaged my body.
06:49Scarlet briefly withdrew her true form from my womb
06:51and ordered the guards to use every torture on me.
06:55The scorching bronze pillar burned my flesh,
06:57and even my silver-scale armor was useless.
07:01The smell of roasted meat filled the air.
07:03Scarlet clapped in delight.
07:05Excellent.
07:06When I'm born, I must taste roasted snake.
07:09It will be absolutely delicious.
07:12By the time I reached the 18th level,
07:14my meridians were shattered
07:15and I had lost consciousness.
07:21Has my lady repented?
07:22If she has learned her lesson, bring her up.
07:25I've made her favorite pastries.
07:26She can eat them while I take her on a tour of the sticks.
07:29My lady won't say anything.
07:31She's been pretending to sleep.
07:32Keep her there!
07:33I'll cure her of this stubborn heart
07:35if it's the last thing I do!
07:37Scarlet had not yet finished her cultivation
07:39and could not stay out of my body for long.
07:42Seeing that I was about to die,
07:43she immediately re-entered my womb
07:45and poured her own power back into me
07:47to keep my heart alive.
07:48I woke up again in agony,
07:50gasping for air,
07:51so desperate I couldn't even cry anymore.
07:53Inside my belly,
07:54the fetal movements grew even more violent.
07:57I knew Scarlet was tormenting me on purpose,
07:59but I no longer had the demon power to suppress her.
08:01I could only endure.
08:06My lady!
08:08Who did this to you?
08:09Fellow serpent that she was,
08:11she had sensed my demon energy
08:12and used the invisibility spell I had taught her
08:14to come see me.
08:15I was so weak,
08:16I couldn't even open my eyes.
08:18I recognized her only by her voice.
08:21Do you have snakeberries?
08:22She brought out the leftover snakeberries
08:24from last time.
08:25Twelve of them.
08:26Swallowing them all
08:27would temporarily restore my demon power.
08:29Ignoring the burning pain in my throat,
08:31I ate them all in one go.
08:33Twelve berries will only maintain
08:35your demon power for two hours, my lady.
08:37What will you do after that?
08:39I smiled, pale but determined.
08:41Two hours is enough,
08:42and abort this child.
08:44The temporary restoration of my demon power
08:46gave me the strength to suppress the fetal movements,
08:49repair my damaged true form,
08:51and break out of the dungeon.
08:52Climb toward the divine realm
08:54to go to the realm of gods.
08:59Half an hour later,
09:01the red thread around my wrist
09:02began flashing wildly.
09:04Hades' voice came through.
09:06Little cell,
09:07where have you gone?
09:08Come back quickly.
09:10I've made the honey shortbread.
09:11I didn't answer,
09:12and kept flying upward.
09:14Selene,
09:15stop playing hide and seek with me.
09:17My patience is limited.
09:18In Tartarus,
09:19Hades stood before my empty cell,
09:22his expression terrifying.
09:23His immense ghostly pressure
09:26made even the minor demons
09:28unable to lift their heads.
09:30My lady disappeared for no reason,
09:32my lord.
09:32It really wasn't our fault,
09:34the horse guard wailed.
09:35The bull guard kowtowed repeatedly.
09:39Search!
09:40The entire Tartarus was turned upside down.
09:44Molten iron and copper overturned.
09:46Blazing magma mixed with blood water
09:48scorched every evil spirit.
09:50In an instant,
09:52the underworld was filled
09:53with wails and carnage.
09:57I steeled myself
09:59and tore off the red thread
10:00along with a piece of my flesh.
10:02No more interference from him.
10:04Exhausted,
10:05I finally reached the gates
10:07of the divine realm,
10:08the entrance to Mount Olympus.
10:10What demon dares cause trouble here?
10:12A divine thunderbolt
10:14struck me without warning.
10:15I used the last
10:16of the snakeberry's power
10:18to withstand it,
10:19but I was still thrown to the ground,
10:21blood spraying everywhere.
10:23When I tried to gather more power,
10:25I found my dantian empty.
10:26My demon power scattered.
10:28I had no strength left
10:29to suppress Scarlet.
10:30Inside me,
10:31she shrieked in terror.
10:33Lowly snake demon!
10:34What are you doing?
10:35If you want to die,
10:35don't take me with you!
10:36Go back!
10:37A second thunderbolt came.
10:39My silver scale armor spread open
10:41and took the hit for me.
10:43Scarlet fell silent.
10:44My armor shattered,
10:46my flesh was damaged,
10:47and she was caught in the blast.
10:49That was what I wanted.
10:51To make sure she didn't survive.
10:56He flew up rapidly
10:58and arrived just as
10:59the third thunderbolt fell,
11:01intercepting half of it in midair.
11:03But I had nothing left
11:04to defend myself.
11:06Selene, are you insane?
11:08Hades ran toward me,
11:09his eyes full of pain.
11:11But just before he reached me,
11:13Scarlet was born alive.
11:15Hades, save me!
11:17This snake demon
11:18is trying to kill me
11:19with divine thunder.
11:20And her body was frail and weak,
11:23nothing like a female warrior.
11:25The thunder must have scarred her,
11:27and premature birth
11:28had left her feeble.
11:29She looked at me
11:30with venom in her eyes,
11:32staggering toward me
11:33to strangle me.
11:34I instinctively waved my hand,
11:37only meaning to push her away.
11:38But she flew backward
11:40like a dry leaf,
11:41landing in Hades' arms,
11:43with a trace of blood
11:44at the corner of her mouth.
11:46Hades, I only wanted to help her up,
11:48but she tried to push me off
11:50Mount Olympus.
11:54Hades raised his hand
11:56and slapped me across the face.
11:58Selene, you are so cruel.
12:00You tried to kill Scarlet
12:02with divine thunder,
12:04ruining her face
12:05and her body.
12:06We've been married 300 years.
12:09I've treated you well.
12:10All I wanted was to use your body
12:13to carry Scarlet.
12:14I never harmed you.
12:16How can you be so intolerant of her?
12:18I couldn't speak.
12:20Hades, I couldn't recover
12:22my original form after all.
12:24I might as well die now.
12:26Give me a quick death.
12:28Scarlet sobbed in his arms.
12:30Hades comforted her,
12:32his voice full of pain.
12:34No, I have a way to restore you.
12:37Trust me.
12:38What way?
12:39By refining my true body?
12:41I coughed up blood,
12:43too weak to argue,
12:45too weary to want to argue.
12:46She had tried to kill me,
12:48but with one lie,
12:50he believed her.
12:51I looked down at my broken body,
12:54thought of my entire clan
12:56slaughtered by Draco
12:57and how I had failed to avenge them,
12:59and my heart ached even more.
13:02A blaze of fire flew from Hades' palm,
13:05but a beam of white light
13:07struck from somewhere else.
13:09Before I could see who it was,
13:11I blacked out.
13:15I woke up in a magnificent divine palace.
13:19A white-robed god with a golden crown
13:21pulled me into his arms.
13:23Selene, you're finally awake.
13:25He touched my forehead,
13:27and memories that weren't mine flooded in.
13:30For 800 years,
13:31my scattered spirit had drifted to Jupiter,
13:34the king of gods.
13:35He kept me as a little snake pet,
13:38nourished me with divine energy,
13:40and watched me grow.
13:41He pushed me on swings,
13:43taught me archery,
13:44even lay naked with me.
13:46But I am not that little snake.
13:48I struggled to rise.
13:50His eyes reddened,
13:51and he kissed me fiercely.
13:53My robes loosened,
13:54but he suddenly stopped.
13:56I forgot you just gave birth.
13:58You need to recover first.
14:00I felt a flicker of gratitude.
14:03Unlike Hades,
14:04he was a gentleman.
14:09Wanted to recover quickly
14:10and take back my heartstone
14:12from the Wolf King Draco.
14:14Jupiter drew a measure of his heart's blood
14:17and fused it into my body.
14:19In less than a week,
14:20I regained three or four tenths
14:22of my demon power.
14:24Then, Draco came himself.
14:26Selene, my dear wife,
14:28come back with me and be my queen.
14:30Lies.
14:31He hadn't used my heartstone
14:33to save his mother.
14:34He had killed her
14:35and my entire clan.
14:37Now, he couldn't refine my heartstone,
14:39so he came to trick me.
14:41I attacked with the sword
14:42Jupiter gave me.
14:44Draco led me toward the Beast Realm,
14:46his home ground.
14:47Just as his eyes gleamed with victory,
14:50a golden light broke through.
14:52Jupiter appeared,
14:53swept me behind him,
14:54and in a few moves,
14:56ripped out Draco's heartstone,
14:58turning him back
14:59into a pathetic little wolf cub.
15:01Wife?
15:02Draco's eyes went wide.
15:04Jupiter pulled me into his arms.
15:06Selene, let's go home.
15:08I was moved,
15:09but a doubt stirred in my heart.
15:15That night,
15:16I had nightmares of my clan
15:17being slaughtered.
15:19Severed snake bodies,
15:20blood-soaked earth,
15:22the cries of newborns.
15:24I screamed and sat up.
15:26My handmaiden Lily
15:27was by my side.
15:28My lady,
15:29it was just a nightmare.
15:30We talked a lot
15:32about things from the past.
15:34She wiped my sweat
15:35and brought me warm tea.
15:36Just as the cup touched my lips,
15:39I asked casually.
15:40I remember my third uncle
15:42was wounded by a dragon
15:43and died instantly.
15:44You nursed him for three years?
15:47Lily's body stiffened.
15:48I overturned the tea cup
15:50and splashed the tea on her face.
15:53White smoke rose.
15:55Scarlet's twisted,
15:56hideous face appeared.
15:58Lily died long ago.
16:00I threw her into Tartarus.
16:02She couldn't even survive
16:03the fourth level.
16:04Her flesh separated from her bones.
16:07Grief and fury shook me.
16:09I seized Scarlet
16:10and dragged her
16:11toward the execution platform.
16:16On the execution platform,
16:18the wind howled.
16:20I held Scarlet over the edge.
16:22Every torture you inflicted
16:24on me in Tartarus,
16:26today you'll pay double.
16:28Half her body
16:29was already over the void.
16:31Then a black shadow rushed over.
16:33Hades pulled her back.
16:35Selene,
16:36it's a misunderstanding.
16:37I've adopted her as my sister.
16:39I came to apologize.
16:41I laughed coldly.
16:43Forgive you?
16:44Only if you endure
16:45every torture I suffered.
16:48Hades looked bewildered.
16:49I never ordered torture.
16:51He raised his hand
16:53and thrust a soul-probing spell
16:55into Scarlet's ear.
16:56Her memories poured out.
16:59The bronze pillar,
17:00the blade mountain,
17:01boiling oil,
17:03me writhing in agony
17:04as Scarlet clapped.
17:06Hades's face turned
17:08deathly pale.
17:09Selene,
17:10I didn't know.
17:14I slowly raised my wrist
17:16to show the hideous scar
17:18where I had torn off
17:20the red thread connecting us.
17:22Now,
17:22do you still think
17:23I can forgive you?
17:24Hades opened his mouth
17:26but no words came.
17:28Tears welled in his eyes.
17:29Taking advantage
17:30of his distraction,
17:31I grabbed Scarlet again
17:33and pushed her toward the edge.
17:35Hades snapped back,
17:36holding her tightly.
17:37With trembling hands,
17:39he pulled out a bone needle.
17:41When I was mortal,
17:43mortally wounded,
17:44Scarlet used this needle
17:45to stitch my wounds.
17:47She saved my life.
17:49Please let her go.
17:50Jupiter arrived,
17:52took the needle,
17:53and examined it carefully.
17:54His expression turned sorrowful.
17:56Hades,
17:57Hades,
17:57you fool.
17:58This is made from a serpent's spine.
18:01It is Selene's bone.
18:02My pupils contracted.
18:04A tidal wave of forgotten memories
18:07crashed into me.
18:11I remembered everything.
18:13When Hades was a mortal general,
18:15torn open on the battlefield,
18:16it was I who appeared.
18:18I took a section of my own spine
18:20and stitched his wound.
18:22For three months,
18:22I never left his side,
18:24traveling far to find snakeberries.
18:26But when I returned wounded
18:28from fighting a leopard shifter,
18:30I found him already healed,
18:32embracing a mortal woman,
18:34Scarlet.
18:34In her hand was my bone needle.
18:36She smiled shyly.
18:38I turned and left,
18:40cutting all ties.
18:41The bone needle broke free from Hades,
18:44turned into a beam of white light,
18:46and flew back into my body.
18:48All my snake bones resonated.
18:50The pain that had plagued me
18:52for a thousand years vanished.
18:54Hades wept openly.
18:56Then he seized Scarlet's throat
18:58and broke her neck.
19:00He threw her body off the platform
19:02and staggered toward me.
19:04Selene, come home with me.
19:06I turned and walked away
19:08without a word.
19:12Behind me,
19:13the clash of weapons,
19:15Jupiter and Hades started fighting.
19:17I didn't look back.
19:19I had no use for either of them.
19:21Then I heard Hades scream,
19:23Selene, run!
19:24Pain exploded through my chest.
19:26I looked down.
19:27A golden dragon claw
19:29had pierced me from behind,
19:31gripping my heart stone.
19:32Jupiter's voice dripped with greed.
19:35Going back to the beast realm?
19:37Leave your heart stone behind.
19:39Hades,
19:40despite his injuries,
19:41wrapped himself around Jupiter,
19:43screaming at me to run.
19:45Jupiter punched Hades,
19:47flying with one blow.
19:49I smiled bitterly.
19:51They were all the same.
19:52With a single thought,
19:53my heart stone blazed
19:55with brilliant light
19:56and shattered.
19:59I lost consciousness.
20:01When I woke,
20:02I was floating in the air,
20:04covered in white scales.
20:06Not snake scales,
20:07but dragon scales.
20:09Jupiter stood frozen,
20:11horrified.
20:12You,
20:12you actually succeeded
20:14in your divine tribulation?
20:16Dragons from the four seas
20:17rushed to kneel before me.
20:19An elder dragon cried out,
20:21It's the Ancestral Lady!
20:22The Ancestral Lady has returned!
20:25He touched my forehead,
20:27and a gentle force
20:28pieced together
20:29my shattered memories.
20:30I remembered,
20:31I am an ancient white dragon,
20:34as eternal as heaven itself.
20:36Jupiter is a thousand years
20:37younger than me.
20:38He grew up cultivating at my side,
20:41and he had been waiting all along,
20:43waiting for me to cultivate
20:45a true dragon pearl
20:46so he could kill me
20:47and take it.
20:51I looked at the kneeling dragons.
20:54Who will kill him for me?
20:56A small purple horned dragon
20:58raised his head.
20:59Ancestral Lady,
21:01this subordinate is called Ziz.
21:03I handed him the sword Frostbite,
21:05the one Jupiter had given me.
21:07It was actually my clan's heirloom.
21:10Jupiter tried to flee,
21:11but found he couldn't move.
21:13I laughed softly.
21:14The heart's blood you gave me,
21:16you meant to control my life
21:18and death through the blood bond.
21:20But now,
21:21the bond has backfired.
21:23You are my puppet.
21:24Ziz closed his eyes
21:26and channeled his power.
21:27Frostbite turned into a beam
21:29of cold light
21:30and pierced Jupiter's chest.
21:33Two heartstones flew out,
21:35Draco's and Jupiter's own.
21:36Tears of blood fell from Jupiter's eyes.
21:39Selene,
21:40don't kill me.
21:41I raised my hand
21:42and waved gently.
21:44His massive dragon body
21:45was swept off the execution platform.
21:51I turned away.
21:52I would not look back.
21:54Behind me,
21:55Hades,
21:56one leg broken,
21:57struggled up from the ground
21:59and screamed after me.
22:01Selene,
22:01I'll wait for you,
22:03no matter how long.
22:04I'll wait for you.
22:05The wind carried his voice away.
22:07I had learned that love
22:09is never an eternal bond.
22:11It is a fleeting brightness
22:12that withers in an instant.
22:14I leaped into the air
22:16and flew toward Kunlun.
22:17From then on,
22:18there were no more entanglements.
22:20Only the ancient white dragon,
22:23free and at ease,
22:24guarding the heaven and earth
22:26that had been her companion
22:28since the dawn of chaos.
