The maid in pink throws herself onto Tifya, crying out, "Miss, hold on! You can’t die, you can’t leave Xiao Huan alone!"
A faint smile appears on Tifya’s pale face. She weakly stutters, "Xiao...Huan...sis...is...leaving...I...can’t...look...after...you...I’m...satisfied...because...before...my...death...I...could...see...my...most...loved...Ah Dai...brother...Ah...Dai...brother...do...you...know...? I...I...never...forgot...you...From beginning...to end...I remembered...our...promise...I...I am...your...fiancée...Hold...me...would you...hold me...?"
Ah Dai wipes away the incessant tears from his eyes, tightly embracing Tifya. "Sweetheart, you will always be my fiancée. You will be okay; you have to be. I won’t let you die; I won’t! As long as you pull through, I will marry you immediately, sweetheart, you have to hang on!"
With a faint sigh, the girl’s glow slowly dimmed. "In...this...state...I won’t...blame...anyone...except...my...self...I am sorry, Ah Dai...your sweetheart is not...fortunate...to be...your...wife...Sweetheart...I don’t deserve...I...went...to Ni...no Town...to find...you...but...Uncle Li...told...me...you...were...already...dead. Do you know...how...sad...I was...when I learned...this...news? I...really...wanted...wanted to...go with...you...Sweetheart...was...so...sad...I really...was...so sad...I...never...expected...Uncle Li...to...lie..you...weren’t...dead...But it’s...too...late now...your sweetheart...is...impure...how can I be...worthy...of...my Ah Dai brother...Ah Dai brother, please...forgive...me. It was...my fault...I have to leave...you...please...take care...and...don’t...sorrow...Sweetheart...even after...a thousand...lives...I...I wish...I wish to be...your...wife..." Her body went limp, and with her last breath, she passed on. Her face held a smile, but her heart was filled with regret as she fell into Ah Dai’s arms – quietly, resentfully passing away.
Ah Dai tightens his grip on her, his face matches her pale complexion in his deep sorrow. He gently strokes her increasingly cold face, murmuring, "I’m so stupid. So very stupid. Why didn’t I recognize who she was sooner? If I had, she...she definitely wouldn’t have died. Sweetheart, sweetheart, it’s all my fault. Your stupid Ah Dai couldn’t protect you. Sweetheart!" Ah Dai’s incessant tears stream down his face as he presses his cheek tightly against hers, crying out loud, continuously unleashing his grief. The chambermaid, Xiao Huan, cries with him. The room is filled with endless sadness, the atmosphere oppressively stifling.
But no matter how much Ah Dai and Xiao Huan grieve, their tears cannot bring their sweetheart back to life - the hard truth is, she’s dead. After some time, the sorrow in Ah Dai’s eyes gradually turned into intense hatred. His bloodshot eyes fill with a cold, murderous intent. He gently places sweetheart’s body back onto the bed, covering her with a blanket. He whips around, his hands tightly gripping Xiao Huan’s shoulders. "Tell me, tell me why this happened! Why was sweetheart like this?! Who could hurt her like this?? Who??? Who???" His voice involuntarily raises in frustration.
An intense pain originates from her shoulders. Xiao Huan looks fearfully at the raging Ah Dai as a stream of sweat trickles down her face. "My shoulder, my shoulder," she says, in pain.
Ah Dai slowly releases his grip on Xiao Huan, continuously reminding himself to stay calm. Only with tranquility could he avenge sweetheart. Chanting with a voice filled with hatred: "Invoke the blood of the Divine Dragon; Oh, The Light of Tranquility that cleanses the spirit, shine forth!" A blue halo blossoms into a gentle white light, enveloping both Ah Dai and Xiao Huan. Under the brilliant glow, their engulfing sorrow and agitation gradually calm down. Finally, under the influence of Light Magic, they become tranquil. Ah Dai gazes tenderly at sweetheart, lying quietly on the bed as if asleep, then coldly tells Xiao Huan, "Sweetheart will not have died in vain. I will spare nobody who has harmed her. Tell me everything. I want to know everything about her experience in the Governor’s Mansion."
