There's still no news of Fifth Brother How can l leave with peace of mind?
Big Brother, l don't think we will find Fifth Brother within the near future
You have to go home and see your family, right?
- What about Third Brother's injuries? - Big Brother, listen to me
There are so many of us here Third Brother will be taken care of
You've just become a father You should go back and visit
When you've done that
you can help Sixth Brother with his love life
Why am l in the subject now?
Sixth Brother, a man has to marry and start a family eventually
We should report to Teacher on your behalf about your wish to marry
That's right. Big Brother will pass Mount Ermei on his way home
He can drop in to propose marriage for Sixth Brother
and grant his wishes
What a great idea
Teacher...
Liting, you should thank your Big Brother
Thank you, Big Brother
l guess l have to make this journey then
My Teacher is very happy about this matter
lf Madam agrees as well
Wudang and Ermei will be united in marriage
Xiaofu, what do you think?
- Please decide for me, Teacher - Fine, l will agree to it on your behalf
Master Song, please tell True Master Zhang
to send the engagement gifts when he has picked a good wedding day
- Yes Madam, l will take my leave now - Farewell
Teacher, if there is no other matter l shall go inside now
Wait
Yes, Teacher?
Every girl would leave the nest to marry You're going to leave me very soon
lf Teacher would let me
l am willing to stay with you and serve you forever
l don't need you to do that
but l hope you can do something for me before you get married
l am willing to do anything for you, Teacher l await your instructions
Good, you and Minjun will go out
and try to find out Xie Xun's whereabouts
Xie Xun?
lt is rumoured that he has taken the Dragon Sabre from Mount Wangpan
l wonder if it's true
The Dragon Sabre is highly related to us Ermei Sect
Sister, someone's playing the zither here
He's just a busker. How undignified
Don't say that
His tune is a mess. lt's just terrible
This is for you
Thank you, Miss
Xiaofu, aren't you coming?
Please have a seat, ladies
- Get us two dishes and two bowls of rice - Sure
What a shameless man
lsn't he the zither-player? Why is he here?
How shameless are you? What do you want?
Sister, don't be so mean
l just wanted to show my gratitude to this lady who appreciates my music
lf you ladies don't mind please join me for a drink
l think you're up to no good You should get lost
We don't drink wine, please forgive us
Don't worry l'll buy you a drink another time
How impressive! All it took was a few looks from him and you're head over heels
Why have you stopped?
Nothing
Then, let's go
Why do you keep looking back?
Nothing
Hurry up...
Those scoundrels!
Miss, are you alright?
Miss...
l'm glad you're awake
This is...
lt's my humble home. You're safe here Don't worry
How... How did l get here?
Don't you remember? You were injured by Yuan soldiers
l saved you and brought you here
- Then l must thank you - lt's alright. l'm Yang Xiao
lf Master Yang hadn't saved me just now the consequences would have been terrible
You fought those soldiers without concerning your own safety
l feel much respect for you for that
lt was my honour to be able to save you
May l have the pleasure of knowing your name?
My name is Ji Xiaofu
Ji Xiaofu
Miss Ji
Well, l should leave now
You have internal injuries and will only recover with a few days' rest
Why don't you stay here until you are fully recovered?
What? You got separated from Xiaofu?
That can't be. Weren't you together?
We split up to fight some Yuan soldiers
When l was done with them l couldn't find her anywhere
l've waited at the inn for 2 days but she didn't come back
So l rushed back to tell Teacher this
Xiaofu has always been sensible
This would only happen if she met with trouble
Did you look around?
l... l didn't know where to start
You didn't know? Yet you rushed back here so quickly
lf Xiaofu has met with harm no one can save her then!
Teacher, Minjun came back to seek your advice
She has done this because she cares for Xiaofu
- Jingxuan - Yes, Teacher
- Send a search party immediately - Yes, Teacher
Master Yang, forgive me for leaving without bidding farewell
l must return to Ermei
Miss Ji, l've found out from the inn that
your sister has left a few days ago
What's this?
You want to leave?
My injuries have healed My Teacher must be worried
Besides, l was on a mission l have to leave
Can you stay a few more days?
l have recovered and must not trouble Master Yang any longer
l appreciate your kindness
but l must go this time
Since you have decided l will not force you to stay
But before you go, l have a small request
l hope you can grant it
You've saved my life
l am willing to do anything for you
What is it?
Since we are about to part l wish to play a last tune for you
Why have you stopped?
We will part when the song is done
Master Yang, we've met by sheer chance and hardly know each other
Farewells are a natural part of life
Please don't be so sad
You're right
Have a drink with me for our final farewell
Do you remember l've said that day
that l would drink with you another time?
l didn't expect it to come true
lt's such a pity that this would be our last drink
May fate bring us together again
Perhaps, we will get to meet one day
Yes, l wish the Heavens would grant me such a day
Let's have one more drink. Cheers!
Miss, if we get the chance to meet again
would you treat me as a friend?
Really?
Let's have one more drink. Cheers
- l should leave now - Miss, please drink with me
l want to get drunk
because l don't have the guts to watch you leave
Why are you doing this, Master Yang?
l have never spent so many days with a lady
l'm afraid l may never see you again
Master Yang, were we just talking about...
how fate may bring us...
Fate can play many cruel tricks on people
You don't have to comfort me
Come, have one last drink
After this, l won't hold you back anymore
Cheers
Miss Ji
Miss Ji...
Xiaofu
You're a beast
l've always thought you were a respectable hero
Yet, you've done this to me
Tell me, why did you do it? Why?
l just want to say, l like you too much
You like me? And so you will bring me harm?
How will l face the world now?
l know l've done you wrong
But you wanted to leave and l couldn't make you stay
l didn't want to lose you
so, l just couldn't control myself...
Xiaofu, that's all l have to say
lf you want to kill me, l won't blame you
- Xiaofu... - Let me die...
Xiaofu, don't be silly Don't take your own life
lt's not your fault, so don't hurt yourself
How am l going to face Teacher?
l'll go back with you
We can get married and it will be fine
l can't marry you
Why not? Do you doubt my sincerity?
l am already engaged
To who?
He is the Sixth disciple of Wudang Yin Liting
Tell me, what other path can l choose other than that of death?
You must never do that
- lf you do, l would have caused it - That's indeed the truth
Since what's done is done we can't turn back the clock
l swear l will never let you down
Xiaofu, marry me
Do you want me to remain a sinner forever?
How will l face Yin Liting?
How will l face anyone in Wudang?
How will l answer to my Teacher?
Xiaofu, we can run away to live in a deserted place
We will not see anyone at all
- Boss, how much is this? - lt's 6 cents, Sir
Thank you...
Greetings, Left Emissary Yang
Show yourself
Greetings, Left Emissary Yang
How is your task going?
We're almost ready Please prepare for action
- Alright, go back first. l'll be there soon - Yes Sir
Demon Sect's command tablet?
- Xiaofu, look at what l bought? - What is this?
Ming Sect's command tablet
Why would you have Demon Sect's command tablet?
lt's not Demon Sect, it's Ming Sect
Who are you in Demon Sect?
Why bother so much? What's important is l'm good to you
No, good and evil cannot be mixed
l must know. Tell me now
Who are you in Ming Sect?
l'm Ming Sect's Left Emissary of Light
- Where are you going? - l'm leaving
Just because l'm in Ming Sect?
You should know that l am from a righteous Sect
- How can l be with a man from Demon Sect? - But you are my wife
l'll let you keep this command tablet
lf you wish to stay in Ming Sect
You and l are finished
l'm sorry, Xiaofu. l have matters to see to
l will come back to free your acupoint Please bear with it
Gentlemen, l was held up by urgent matters l'm sorry to keep you waiting
Left Emissary Yang, you're too polite
Green Winged Bat King and White Browed Eagle King are not here yet
They're putting on more airs than you so don't worry
How boring
Cloth Bag Monk
What treasure do you have in your rotten cloth bag there?
Let me have a look
l can't say...
They're here
Ever since White Browed Eagle King left Ming Sect
to set up his own Heavenly Eagle Sect his style has become more impressive
Shut up, Yang Xiao
You've summoned me and the Five Wanderers so urgently
What is the matter?
l was going to wait for Green Winged Bat King
but since we've waited so long
and he may not turn up anyway
l'll say it now
Since our Sect Leader disappeared Ming Sect has been disunited
Nobody bothers about the Sect matters anymore
So, today, l've asked you to come
and discuss the election of a new Sect Leader
Hasn't someone already assumed that he is the Sect Leader?
And now, it's just a formality lsn't that right?
Zhou Dian, what's that supposed to mean?
l'm no longer in Ming Sect
so this is really none of my business
Yin Tianzheng, you're one of the Four Master Guardians
Since you know l'm one of the Four Master Guardians
you should understand you're merely the Left Emissary of Light
and l don't need to obey you
But l am in command now that l have been put in charge of Sect matters
Someone speaks his mind at last!
How audacious!
You can't shut me up so easily
You're both on the same side. Stop fighting
They're evenly matched lt's going to be a good fight
All may be hurt badly though
Yang Xiao, yours skills are good
but if you can't defeat me, don't even think about becoming the Sect Leader
What could have happened to her?
lt's been a few months and there is still no news of her
Teacher, if l may speak boldly
l doubt Xiaofu is in any trouble
Her skills aren't too bad and has been enlightened by you personally
She wouldn't lose in a fight even if she was in trouble
She might be having too much fun and forgot to come back
Teacher, Sister Xiaofu is back
Teacher
Teacher, l'm back
Get down on your Knees
Where have you been?
What have you done? Tell me!
l... l was attacked and injured by Yuan soldiers
l was recuperating on a farm and have come back upon recovery
Sister Ding must have told you about the fight with the Yuan soldiers
Even if that is true, your recovery wouldn't take such a long time
And why didn't you look for me?
Or you could have given a signal to nearby Ermei disciples
Did l say you could speak?
Why didn't you contact us?
l didn't want to alarm everyone because it wasn't serious
Besides, Teacher has asked me to find out where Xie Xun is
and l've not completed the mission l'm feeling very guilty about that
l couldn't bring myself to ask my fellow sisters for help
Yes, Teacher
Xiaofu's nature is exactly like that
She was just being responsible for her own actions
Get up
- Thank you, Teacher - Teacher
Even so she still need to tell us every details
l know what l'm doing
You've just recovered. Go and get some rest
- You can skip training for now - Thank you, Teacher
l'll come with you
Qingshu, Song Qingshu What a good name...
Teacher, it's not just a good name
it's the name of your good grand disciple too
lt's a pity we uncles have not seen him yet
When will Big Brother bring the baby here for a visit?
Yes... Bring him here There are so many uncles to coach him
- He'll grow up into a fine young man - Thank you...
- Yuanqiao - Yes
Since everyone is so eager
you should bring him here to start his education
so we can enjoy his company
lt would be lovely to have a child around here
Yes, Teacher, l will do that
Big Brother, how was Priestess Miejue when you visited Mount Ermei?
Don't you mean to ask how Miss Ji was?
lt's our fault we kept going on about Qingshu
and forgot about our Sixth Sister-in-law
Seventh Brother, don't say that She hasn't agreed yet
No, Sixth Brother, she has agreed
Really? Big Brother, is that so?
Yes, she has agreed to marry you
- Look how happy you are - lndeed
Yuanqiao, did Priestess Miejue say anything else?
The old lady said
we should decide on a date
and send over the engagement gifts
- Liting - Yes
Since your wedding has been confirmed
l will make decisions for you from now on
Thank you, Teacher
- Yuanqiao - Yes
You've just come back and shouldn't have to go out again so soon
but you have been in charge of Liting's wedding so far
Why don't you pick a good wedding day and get the gifts ready
Then, send the engagement gifts over on Liting's behalf to Mount Ermei
Yes, Teacher
Thank you, Big Brother
- Congratulations, Sixth Brother... - Congratulations, Sixth Brother
Come in
Teacher
Here's some ginseng soup for you
lt's late, you should rest
Why bother to make ginseng soup?
l will be visiting my hometown tomorrow
and can't bear to leave you
There you go again When did you become so emotional?
You're just visiting your mother
and not leaving for good
Xiaofu, work hard and do your best
l intend to teach you the complete internal power technique of Jiuyang Manual
l...
The only thing l can complain about you is that you don't speak your mind
You must be straightforward Just say what you want to say
Teacher, this lnternal power technique
was only passed on to Sect Leaders l am not worthy
Since l've said l'm teaching you this
don't argue with me anymore
ln my opinion, you're the only one who can be the next Sect Leader
Me?
Don't worry. l have never misjudged a person
Amongst all the disciples you have the strongest comprehension
You will aid Teacher one day
to spread the glory of Ermei and exterminate Demon Sect
- Exterminate Demon Sect? - Yes
But what if there are family and friends
of Teacher's in Demon Sect? Then...
They must die
Good and evil will never mix
Demon Sect and Ermei Sect are mortal enemies with a terrible feud
You must kill anyone from Demon Sect
Don't let any of them go Do you understand?
Yes, Teacher
l'm sure you know what to do
Teacher, my trip to my hometown this time may take awhile
as my mother may make me stay longer
lf you really miss me
no one can keep you
- Thank you, Boss - Thank you...
Don't create a scene. Tell me where is Ji Xiaofu?
You want to see Sister Ji?
l have a score to settle with her
She's not here. She has left the mountain
Don't lie
l'm not. She left early this morning
Where did she go?
- l don't know - Do you really not know?
l really don't know
Fifth Brother
Are you troubled again?
Many days have gone by Many years have gone by
Where's Wuji?
Wuji...
Godfather
You're so naughty Haven't you fallen down enough?
Godfather, l know you like wild berries
lt tastes great
You lied to me
- You lied to me first - Godfather, you're terrible
Wuji, are you making Godfather angry again?
Father, mother. No, l'm not
He's quite good to me
That's right. l just wanted to pluck wild berries for Godfather to eat
Can't he get them himself?
He can shoot and hit even the birds in the sky
But he can't see which berries have worms in them
Besides, he can't even tell where the berries are
- Shut up - l'm just replying your question
That's enough
Let him be. Children are ignorant Besides, he's right
Godfather...
Wuji, be good and stay here
Keep your parents company
Mother, is Godfather angry with me?
No, he's just unhappy because you managed to hit the nail on the head
Wuji, it's windy tonight Put this fur wrap on
Thank you, mother
lt's really cold tonight
Sometimes, l really can't forgive myself
lf l didn't blind him, he'd be fine now
You didn't have a choice then
Don't bring up the past
Humans cannot control fate
And it was a moment of danger at the time
lf only l can make it up to him
Haven't you already done that?
You gave him such a lovely godson
You're not being serious
Where's Wuji?
Aren't you sleeping?
Punish me, Godfather
Why should l punish you for nothing?
l mentioned your blindness for no good reason
Godfather, punish me with hunger for 3 days
ls that going to give my eyesight back to me?
Don't kneel here, get up Don't be so emotional
- You're just like your father - Godfather, l...
You're a man and must learn to take things in your stride
Godfather, who blinded you?
- Which evil person did it? Tell me - Shut up
Godfather...
Don't mention this again
Why not?
Godfather doesn't blame this person anymore
- Really? - Yes
Wuji, l'm happy enough to have you for company
l almost forgot
You're just like your mother
Then how do l get to be like you, Godfather?
Silly boy, you're such a silly boy
Are we really going to die here?
Time flies. lt's been almost 9 years
We are blessed that all of us are healthy
But, l think it's almost impossible to go back to Central Plains
Even Big Brother can't think of a way
Wuji is so pitiful
He doesn't even know what rice is
He doesn't know what are houses, temples candied haws, or flour figurines
This should be the happiest age of his life
but he can't enjoy it
l feel so helpless
Big Brother forced us to come here because of the Dragon Sabre
it's been almost 9 years
That sabre has become rusty He doesn't even touch it. lf only he knew...
Don't be so pessimistic
Maybe fishing boats will pass by tomorrow and take us back to Central Plains
Maybe the person commanding the boat will either be your father or my Teacher
Fifth Brother
Godfather is fantastic...
- lt's your turn - Yes, Godfather
Having fun, Buhui?
Mother bought you new clothes
Come into the house and try them. Good girl
Alright, you're full now
Be a good girl and go outside to play
Good girl
Buhui is such a good girl
Third Aunt, this money is for you
You're leaving again?
Yes, l have to go tomorrow
l'm only telling you this because l've been your neighbor for a long time
You're always not home to keep your daughter company
This won't do
Even though l dote on her like she is my own
but you must know that
no matter how much l care for her l can never substitute you
l understand, Third Aunt
However, l really have no choice but to do this
Please take care of Buhui for me l will rush back whenever l can
l'm saying this for Buhui's sake
She's getting older now
You were gone for more than half a year last time
She was so pitiful. She cried for her mother every day and night
She cried till her eyes were all swollen and red
