Episode 25
♫ Heroes of Huaxia(Hua Xia Ying Xiong) ♫ DENG CHAO
When all started in the heaven Dang yi qie kai shi zai tian
When all were no longer silent Dang wan wu bu zai shi shen mo
Who gave me a dream containing a slice of blue sky Shei gei wo yi ge meng, meng zhong you yi pian tian kong
Telling me the color of life? Gao su wo sheng ming de yan se
From hence on, I bid farewell to all loneliness Cong ci gao bie suo you ji mo
Only waiting for sunrise and sunset everyday Deng dai mei tian ri sheng ri luo
When fresh blood covers the sky Dang xian xue yan gai le tian
When the country is seeking real heroes Dang hua xia xun zhao zhen de ying xiong
Who will give a sword pointing the way out Shei gei wo yi bai jian, jian zhi xiang yi tiao chu lu
Telling me to march forward with a smile? Gao su wo yao xiao zhe zou guo
Committed to saber and sword for life Dao jian xiang yue yi sheng
The butterflies can never fly across the blue dome of sky Hu die fei bu guo cang qiong
As the meteor passes by, life changes in a flash Deng dai liu xing hua guo, cang hai sang tian
On the banks of the icy lake of tears Bing lei hu de an bian
Helplessly, the saber and sword flashes by Wu nai dao jian hua guo
My beloved left me with a thousand years of longing Yi ren liu xia qian nian de si nian
Far away at the ends of the earth, someone is singing Zong ran yuan gu tian bian, shei zai ge chang
A tune that mourns the lingering loss of a lifetime Ji nian yi luo yi shi de chan mian
With eyes longing Ning wang de yan shen
For love Ai lian

Chi-Yeuk, don' t eat it!
Shut up!
Oh, I missed one.
Stand up!
It hurts, huh? Answer me!
Well done, girl.
Don' t worry.
You are safe for now.
Just come with me.
If you satisfy my requests,
maybe I will detoxify you.
Come on. You have my word.
Bring me the Heaven Sword if you want your lord back.
Let' s go!
Stop!
Hold up! We' ll follow them secretly.
Waiter! I' d like some pasta.
Coming!
Mr. Chang.
Elderly Golden Flower will go to sea for sure.
How did you know?
If you want to find your godfather,
just follow my order and wait at the pier.
I' ll meet you there when I' ve got things ready.
- No problem. - Go!
My lord.
We' ve been waiting for long.
What' s taking her so long?
Siu-Chiu, you don' t trust Miss Chiu, do you?
I hope I am wrong about her.
What do you think she is doing?
Do you trust her?
Well...
Look, a ship! It' s a big ship! Come on.
- Steer ashore. - Yes, ma' am.
Been anxious waiting, huh?
It' s Miss Chiu.
I bet you were discussing ifl was setting some trap again.
Am I right?
Steer ashore!
Come on.
The local governor mistakenly sent a gunboat to me.
Elderly Golden Flower is smart.
A gunboat will get her suspicious.
So I had to have this ship refitted a bit
and load it with food, fresh water, weapons and clothing.
That' s why I got delayed. I' m sorry.
This ship is rather big.
Come on. Let me show you around.
But I have a question.
How do you know Elderly Golden Flower will rent this ship?
Just now, when you were waiting,
you didn' t see any ship passing by, did you?
I was curious about that indeed.
It' s quite a weird thing that no ship came to this big pier.
Not at all, because I ordered the local governor
to have the sea area 50 miles around restricted.
So if Elderly Golden Flower wants a ship,
she' ll have to rent this one.
You are so thoughtful, Miss Chiu.
- Surely I am. Let' s go upstairs. - Come on.
Sir, are you going to sea?
This is a fishing boat, not for transportation.
Try another one.
Wait up. What ifl pay you gold?
That' ll be fine then.
- Please come on board. - Master!
There comes Elderly Golden Flower!
What' s with you, Siu-Chiu?
- Hide up! - Hurry up!
- Come on. - OK.
- I knew it! - Come on board!
Damn you greedy man!
- Come on. - Please.
I' m worrying about something.
What if they recognize us?
Don' t worry. I already thought about that.
Follow me.
Now we are in disguise.
I suppose she can' t recognize us even if we are standing before her.
Steer south!
Get it out of my way!
You all right?
Sure.
Be careful.
- Come here! - Your highness.
Everything is ready for your plan.
But that old woman is very fierce.
She forced us to change our course.
Obey her. Leave us.
Yes, your highness.
Come back!
I have a task for you.
Keep an eye on that pretty girl,
and keep us informed, got it?
- Yes, your highness. - Back to work.
Let' s go!
Gosh! Sea sickness is killing me.
Something must be wrong.
What' s wrong?
The Island oflce and Fire is in arctic area.
She is supposed to head north.
Why is she heading south?
This old woman must be up to something.
There is no wind driving the ship to south in this season.
But we have to follow that old woman' s order.
Is she heading towards the Island of Vipers?
What? To the Island of Vipers?
Yes.
The Island of Vipers is home to Elderly Golden Flower,
and to her late husband, Mr. Silver Leaf.
You never heard about "Golden Flower and Silver Leave"?
Don' t be kidding. You are just a boy at my age.
Surprised you know more about the martial world than I do.
I' m a member of the martial world.
Surely I know about it better than a princess living in a palace.
OK, my lord.
Would you please share with me,
an ignorant princess,
some information about the Golden Flower,
the Silver Leaf and the Island of Vipers?
You got me.
I hardly know anything about Mr. Silver Leaf.
As for Elderly Golden Flower,
I' ve witnessed how powerful she is.
Powerful? Tell me more details.
Master, lady.
I' ll go to check on Miss Chow. You go ahead.
OK.
By the way, check if Miss Chow suffers any symptom of poison.
I knew it! You' ve been thinking about her all the time!
- Uh... - Save it! I saw you through.
Good for you, Siu-Chiu!
You can read your master' s mind.
OK. You go ahead.
Master, you can count on me.
Thanks.
Granny.
Are you OK?
Your condition is getting worse.
Take some medicine.
I don' t know why.
My condition is getting worse lately.
Get my medicine available anytime I need it.
That' s all between the old lady and me.
What a surprise!
I thought she was simply a kung-fu master.
Didn' t know so many things happened between you two.
Seems it' s not that easy to deal with her.
You' re a smart girl, your highness.
And there are so many talented warriors working for you.
I don' t think it' s a hard job for you to deal with an old lady.
We are now stuck on a ship sailing on a vast ocean.
How am I supposed to get those talented warriors here to help us?
The chef, the sailors.
They are all great warriors,
though not the top ones.
You have impressive power of observation, Lord Chang!
You got me.
Siu-Chiu.
What' s that look about? Anything wrong?
Anything happened to Miss Chow?
Don' t worry. Miss Chow is...
How is Miss Chow?
She' s fine. Don' t worry.
Alright. Find a comfortable place and get some sleep.
We may continue tomorrow.
You should have a good sleep.
Your sweetheart is waiting in it.
Take a rest.
Godfather...
Brother...
Go!
Godfather... Don' t do this to yourself.
- Don' t! - Go!
Thinking about your godfather?
Don' t worry.
We' ll find him for sure this time.
I hope so.
If we can' t find him this time,
I' ll go together with you to look for him,
if you don' t mind.
I' m sure we will find him one day.
Do you mean it?
Absolutely! Before I get the Dragon Sabre,
I won' t give up.
Godfather!
It' s godfather!
My godfather is there!
It' s my godfather over there!
Lei.
There' re people fighting on our island. Let' s go find out.
Take care of yourself.
Tse Shun. Hand over the sabre and I' ll let you go.
Otherwise...
Screw you!
The Dragon Sabre is on me.
Take it if you can.
Gentlemen.
Without my permission,
you came to my place
and bothered my distinguished guest.
- What are you up to? - Mrs. Hon?
This is her island!
Wait a minute.
How did she find my godfather?
And how did she persuade him to come?
Save your questions and go find out for yourself.
Siu-Chiu, stay on the ship. Miss Chiu, let' s go.
Master.
What' s wrong?
Nothing. Take care.
I will.
Come on!
Calm down.
Easy, boy. With that old lady around,
your godfather will be safe.
Mr. Chang, I can' t believe you played that dirty trick.
As a member of the widely-respected Beggars' Union,
you distracted this gentleman with Dog-beating Stick Work
then attacked him with Swaying Boxing.
That is such a mean trick for a blind opponent.
How could you do that to me?
Madam.
This is between me and Tse Shun.
You should stay out of it.
Why did you tell out my plan?
Are you a senior member of the Beggars' Union?
I can' t remember seeing you before.
I joined the Beggars' Union not long ago.
We haven' t met each other.
I' m Chan Yau-Leong, a senior member of the Beggars' Union.
Chan Yau-Leong?
Go away!
Mr. Tse.
I admire you for your awesomeness.
However,
you' ve injured my fellow Chang.
I plead you to spare his life,
and I' d like to give up my life for his.
Now take my life!
Very brave, man.
OK. You can leave with your fellow.
I won' t stop you.
Thank you for your mercy.
But for the record,
you has killed dozens of my fellows today.
Ifl am lucky enough to acquire great kung-fu in 10 years,
I' ll surely come back to avenge them on you.
No problem, ifl am still alive by that time.
Madam.
We visited your place without permission.
For that, I apologize to you.
Let' s go.
Brother Tse, you are as powerful as ever!
Present yourself, man.
Boy, pretty nice shooting skill.
Why did you do that?
Did you try to attack me?
What were you up to sneaking around in disguise?
Who are you?
We' re members of the Whales.
We make a living by offering service.
Sorry for meddling in your business.
Thank you. I never needed anyone' s help.
But today...shame on me!
For 20 years, I' ve been away from the martial world.
Many new talents have shown up.
My comeback is a mistake.
Brother Tse, I know you never like to be helped when you' re in a fight.
That' s why I didn' t offer a hand just now.
I hope you don' t mind.
It doesn' t matter at all.
During your trip on the central land,
did you hear anything about my godson Mo-Kei?
Yes or no? Answer me!
No!
Mrs. Hon. We are fellow brother and sister.
Don' t ever try to fool me, OK?
Is my godson Mo-Kei still alive in this world?
Mr. Tse...
Tell me, Miss Yan.
Is your granny telling the truth?
Yes, she is.
During our trip on the central land,
we didn' t hear anything about Chang Mo-Kei.
So what did you hear about?
How about the Parseeists?
How about my old friends?
I have no idea about that.
I went to the central land for two reasons.
One was to avenge my husband on that damn monk.
The other was to beat down that old nun of Emei.
As for other affairs, I didn' t care at all.
Why would I?
Mrs. Hon.
That day, on the Island of Ice and Fire,
you said my sworn brother and his wife
were forced to kill themselves
so as to keep my whereabouts secret.
Hey, stay calm.
That my godson Mo-Kei was left alone as an orphan,
suffering oppression and a horrible life.
You remember saying that?
Yes.
You said he' d been suffering the effect of the Death' s Palm,
that you met him in the Butterfly Valley,
and invited him over but was turned down by him.
Is that true?
Every word I told you was true.
I am no shameless prick!
Why would I lie to you?
Ifl had lied to you, let me be punished by god!
And let my late husband' s soul be disturbed!
What now?
Miss Yan, what do you say?
Back then, I tried so hard to talk Mo-Kei over.
But he didn' t appreciate it.
Instead, he even bit me in my hand.
Look. His tooth prints still remains.
I' m telling the truth.
I never stop thinking of him.
Trust me. It' s true!
I can show you the prints!
Mrs. Hon.
You promised to find Mo-Kei for me.
Why did you break your word?
Yes, we had a deal back then,
that if you lent me the Dragon Sabre,
I' d help you look for your godson Mo-Kei.
As long as you do your part,
I' ll fulfill my promise. What do you think?
You bring my godson to me first,
and I' ll lend you the sabre.
You don' t trust me?
I' m blind but not stupid.
I have another question.
My visit to this island was supposed to be kept secret.
How did those beggars know I' m here?
That' s also a question to me.
How should I know?
If you don' t want to find my godson for me,
that' s OK.
I' ll do it myself,
and I' ll rock the whole martial world!
Granny.
What are you waiting for? Get out of my sight!
Fine. Let' s go. Come on. Go!
Come down.
Come down!
Let me go!
Sit down.
You must stay calm at this special moment.
Don' t you think that many things are weird on this island?
Think about this.
Why did those beggars come here?
How did that old woman know where your godfather was?
Why did she bring him here?
Don' t you want to know the answers?
If you don' t, go ahead and kill that old woman.
Then you will never know the answers.
I want to see my godfather.
Besides, he needs my help now.
Come on. Have some patience.
Your godfather won' t disappear.
Listen.
That old woman is not the only dangerous person.
The guy named Chan too is a threat.
The beggar?
He is a brave honest man. I admire him.
You were fooled.
So was your godfather.
What do you mean?
You see, your godfather could have applied the Dragon Sabre,
and, without doubt, killed all those beggars.
Sit! I haven' t finished my words!
Your godfather is a powerful man.
Chan could by no means resist his attack.
So Chan wasn' t left many choices in that situation.
He could fight with all his strength.
Or he could beg for mercy.
Your godfather wouldn' t want others to know his whereabouts.
So even though Chan begged for mercy on his knees,
your godfather wouldn' t let him go.
Seeing no hope to escape,
Chan couldn' t but say uncle,
because he could come up with no better idea.
Another question.
When he was admitting his failure to your godfather,
what gesture was Chan in?
With his right arm crossed above his left one.
A stance for capture.
And his feet were ready for a kick,
typical Shaolin kung-fu,
not worth much attention.
You mean he was seeking a chance to attack
while admitting his failure?
That wasn' t a good idea.
Oh, my lord. You are too naive
to understand the evilness of human.
Chan was obviously no match for your godfather,
so he was definitely not preparing for an attack.
That man is very clever.
I should say he' s one of the cleverest men I' ve seen.
He was afraid that your godfather would see him through,
so he had to get prepared for self-defense.
Recall the position where he was standing.
Who would he have captured and who would he have kicked?
He would have kicked the beggar lying on the ground
and captured Miss Yan.
Exactly. What he needed to do
was to kick the beggar onto your godfather,
and then capture the girl...
your first love,
also the one with your tooth prints on her hand.
By doing that,
he could stall for time to escape.
Ifl were him,
I would have applied the same trick,
because that' s a very smart one.
In almost a flash of time, he could come up with such a vicious trick.
Isn' t he clever and dangerous?
Miss Chiu.
You saw through his trick almost at once.
You' re more incredible than he is.
Is that a compliment or an accusation?
You know what? If you are afraid of me,
you' d better stay away from me.
Not necessary.
I' ve learned many evil tricks you used on me.
A little alertness will be enough to keep me safe.
You think so?
I' ve applied poisonous cream on your arm,
but all the time,
you didn' t take notice of it at all.
The corrosive cream?
Damn you!
You crazy woman.
Leave me alone!
Are you out of your mind? It hurts!
That' s why I used it.
Let me have a look.
Hey, talk to me! Ifl had known you' d treat me so coldly,
I' d rather take your life just now!
Then I don' t have to suffer your coldness.
You should feel grateful that I didn' t do it.
I should be grateful?
Give me a break!
One question. Which is worse?
The way you bit Miss Yan or the way I bit you?
Answer me!
Why? Can we not talk about biting?
You have to answer my question.
Fine.
I bit her harder. So what?
Back then, she was stronger than I was.
I couldn' t get rid of her.
Left no choice, I had to bite her.
Are you a weak kid? No, you' re not!
And I didn' t force you to come with me.
I don' t understand. When she was forcing you to come here,
you turned her down coldly.
But this time, you followed her here while you were not invited.
You' ve changed your mind about her, huh?
You want her now, don' t you?
You made me come, OK?
To look for your godfather!
You know what?
It' s the first time I' ve heard the story from Miss Yan.
I guess you bit her really hard,
so hard that she can' t stop thinking about you.
From her tone,
I can tell she will always remember you.
So I thought maybe I should bite you hard
to make you remember me.
Forever and ever!
But I was afraid I' d hurt you too hard,
so I didn' t bite you with full strength.
But to leave you an everlasting memory of this,
I decided to bite you first,
then apply the corrosive cream on the wound
to leave an indelible scar on you.
I see.
I am not mad at you.
Not at all.
Alright. You are right.
I was ungrateful. I apologize, OK?
To be frank, you didn' t have to do this,
because I will never forget the way you treat me.
What do you think about the way I treat you?
Is it good or bad?
Talking about that,
I realized that I never treated you well.
I' ve been mean to you all the time.
Therefore,
you must treat me well later on.
Then we can call it even.
No way!
No way?
Alright.
Then I' ll have to do what you did to me.
I' ll bite you hard in your arm
to make you remember me all your life.
OK. Be my guest.
Come on. Do it now.
I am serious.
Go ahead.
Bite me.
OK. Then I' ll do it!
Master.
Siu-Chiu.
Just now, I saw the old lady and the ugly girl go over there.
They were carrying a little bag.
I wonder what they' ll do with it.
What direction?
They headed north,
arguing over something.
The old lady seemed very angry.
Alright. Let' s go.
Wait up!
- What' s wrong? - Where are you going?
I' m going to see my godfather.
You girls stay in the ship.
I' d like to go alone.
Why don' t you take the cover of the night?
I' m worried about my godfather.
If you are determined to go, take this with you.
The Heaven Sword?
No. You keep it.
I don' t know why, but I' m a little worried.
About what?
I can' t tell.
That old lady is mysterious.
And Chan is very crafty.
As for your godfather,
he doesn' t know you are actually his godson.
They call this place the Island of Vipers,
so there might be some deadly poisonous beasts.
Besides...
Besides what?
Just take the sword with you.
Thank you very much.
Be careful, master.
I can' t believe you never stop loving that damn boy!
He' s been dead in some random deep valley for years!
Granny.
You saved my life. I really appreciate that.
But Mr. Tse is Chang Mo-Kei' s godfather.
I can' t hurt him.
Besides, I don' t believe Chang Mo-Kei is dead.
He must still be alive!
You heard Mo Lit and Mo Ching-Ying.
You tortured them to make them talk.
And you got the answer from them.
That kid is already dead!
And by now, I believe, he has become ashes already!
Get over him, girl!
But I can' t!
Maybe I am being punished.
Even if he had come here with us back then,
even if he had married you...
Never mind, he' s already dead.
In fact, I think it was a good end for you and him.
Look at your own ugly face.
He' d never have loved you!
He would fall in love with other women,
and you' d go crazy!
I know I am ugly.
If you had never practiced the Ultimate Venomous Claw,
you might have been a pretty girl.
Too late to say this now!
I know he is dead.
And I know my face is ugly.
But they don' t matter anymore.
Granny, Mr. Tse was his godfather.
I beg you. Do not harm him.
I' ll do anything else for you, granny.
Enough! You stand up.
Thank you.
I promise I will not hurt Tse Shun.
But I must take his sabre!
But granny...
Cut the crap and set the needles.
Give it to me!
Oh, I see.
She is afraid she can' t beat my godfather,
so she is setting up a trap with some needles.
I mustn' t let her do this to my godfather.
Wait.
She called my godfather "Brother Tse".
They must have been close friends before.
I should wait till she shows her true color.
And then I' ll expose her trick.
It must be god' s will to let me know her trick.
I must protect my godfather well!
Brother Tse.
The guy you let go today came to you again, didn' t he?
You can' t avoid scheming attackers.
But I' ve got rid of him.
He deserved it. He fooled you today.
Too bad he underestimated you.
Though blind, you' re as powerful as ever!
Still very competitive.
Thank you for your compliments.
I wasn' t that good to hear his gesture for capture
and his stance for a kick.
But ifl can hear something about my godson,
I' ll die with no regret.
I killed too many innocent people and will have a bad ending.
There' s nothing for me to fight for now.
You' re a guardian warrior of the Parseeists.
It' s those people' s honor to die in your hand.
Would you lend me the Dragon Sabre?
After I beat down the old nun of Emei,
I' ll spare no effort
to look for Chang Mo-Kei for you.
Your whereabouts has been exposed.
Those beggars won' t give you a break.
This place is no longer safe for you.
I' ll find another secret place for you.
What do you say?
I might not be resourceful,
but I don' t think it' ll be hard for me
to find your godson for you.
Brother Tse.
Remember the days we worked together?
We were so awe-inspiring when Lord Yeung was in office.
Now your fellow sister got bullied.
Shouldn' t you do something to help?
What?
She is the Purple-dressed Dragon?
Also the head of the Four Guardian Warriors?
Then Uncle Yueng' s every word about her is true!
What happened between her and my sect?
That' s all history.
Now you have lost your eyesight.
Have you any confidence in beating me?
I know what you are up to.
You want to get into the secret tunnel.
So I' ll never lend you the sabre.
You want to take it by force?
With the Dragon Sabre in hand,
I can beat you with blind eyes all the same!
I' m so sorry
that we have to break our friendship vow and fight each other.
Brother Tse, I know your kung-fu is above mine.
But I badly need the sabre.
You left me no choice!
