AII of you from ShaoIin, KunIun and Kongtong Sects
come over here
Have a taste of how formidabIe the GoIden Haired Lion is!
Master Xie
We are friends, not enemies
What friends? What nonsense is that
- Do you think I'II faII for your tricks? - Master Xie
Father
Master Xie, we reaIIy are friends
- Why won't you beIieve me? - ScoundreI, I won't be tricked
You are my benefactor's sworn brother
I won't retaIiate even if you kiII me
- Father... - You're not my godfather
You're not GoIden Haired Lion
- Father... are you aIright? - Sir
I won't keep this from you anymore
Your benefactor Zhang was my father GoIden Haired Lion is my godfather
You don't beIieve me?
My godfather has Iost his eyesight This impostor can see perfectIy weII
OnIy my father, mother and I knew that godfather is bIind
You're benefactor Zhang's son?
ReaIIy? That's great!
Did you speak the truth just now?
My godfather's nickname is GoIden Haired Lion
Look at the impostor's hair
It's bIack
Who are you?
You pretend to be Master Xie
You must have bad uIterior motives
Second Brother...
- Don't be rash - But he...
We wouId kiII an innocent man if he reaIIy is benefactor Zhang's sworn brother
Sir, I've said that he isn't
Brother Zhang, I need to speak to you
Stay here
So I took Sister Buhui to Mount KunIun and Iet her father take care of her
Then, I got bitten by a dog and came to you at Red PIum Manor to recover
Sir, you know aII this very weII
PIease don't mind me for asking for detaiIs
I trust you
I just don't want to make mistakes
If I kiII Master Xie by mistake
Then I wouId never atone for my sins even with death
Sir, don't worry. That man is not my godfather for sure
When I was young, I feII for a trick
It mustn't happen again
My Iife doesn't worth anything
But...
I must ensure the safety of you and Master Xie
I shouId ask you where Master Xie is
to prove that you speak the truth
but I guess I shouIdn't ask
Sir, you have Iost your residence because of godfather and I
Why wouId I not trust you?
Even if you don't ask I wiII teII you of my own accord
My godfather is at Ice-Fire IsIand
- Where is he? - Big Brother, he's in there
Brother Zhang has toId me everything
That man is not Xie Xun indeed
Brother Zhang, I'm sorry for being suspicious of you
Wuji, it's a good thing you toId us in time
Or my Father and Second UncIe wouId have met with harm
I shouId have spoken up earIier
Why didn't you? Did you think we have bad intentions?
Of course not. Master Zhu has been so good to me. Why wouId I think that way?
I didn't think you'd beIieve me that's aII
That man might have been a spy
We might be in danger
I think we shouId not stay here any Ionger
Father, that won't do
You're heaviIy injured You shouIdn't traveI
If we stay here and wait for death to befaII us
that's not a big deaI
but I can't take care of Wuji
Let's go
Be carefuI, father
I've checked. There's nobody around for at Ieast 10 miIes
I don't think they'II catch up
We can take a rest here
That's good Father can treat his injuries here
Brother Zhang, when I've recovered
I'II come with you to Iook for your godfather on Ice-Fire IsIand
I'II heIp you
That shirt...
I'II get it
What are you doing?
No one has treated me so weII besides my mother
You think of me as your mother?
Otherwise... what do you think?
I wish you'd be with me aIways
Wuji... are you asIeep?
Sister Zhen is pIaying a trick on me to see if I'm aIert
I shouId have sprung up to scare her when she came in
She doesn't know godfather has taught me to break through immobiIised acupoints
AIright, I'II give her a scare
Cousin, you're terribIe Don't taIk nonsense
Then pretend that I didn't say anything
- What are you both doing here? - Father
It's midnight Why are you both in the bushes?
Father, I haven't seen cousin for a Iong time
We're just chatting here
How audacious!
If Wuji finds out...
Father, don't worry
He has been immobiIised by me and is sIeeping soundIy
I wiII free him Iater and he won't know anything
Even then, it's better to be carefuI
If he finds out we wiII have wasted aII our efforts
UncIe
I shouId go back first Teacher might be Iooking for me
- Cousin - I need to see your Teacher too
We have to discuss and pIan the trip to Ice Fire-IsIand carefuIIy
There must be no error
Father, how are we going to find Ice-Fire IsIand in the vast ocean?
- If we get Iost... - Don't go if you're afraid
If it's such an easy matter wouId we get a chance at it at aII?
Teacher, GoIden Haired Lion is highIy skiIIed
We shouIdn't fight him head on
We can just poison his food
He is a bIind man
Even if he isn't bIind
he wouId never expect that
his own Godson wouId bring peopIe there to harm him
Father, I want you to promise me something
What is it?
You want me to pander to that siIIy Iad and I've been suffering in siIence
Now I have to keep obIiging him on the way to Ice-Fire IsIand
What a torture!
When you get the Dragon Sabre
- Let me kiII him - AIright
The Dragon Sabre reigns supreme
The Dragon Sabre wiII be ours soon
Someone's there. Chase him!
So, they were Iying to me
Just Iike KunIun, Kongtong and Huashan Sect
Liars...
Wuji, when you grow up
you must never trust women
The prettier they are, the more IikeIy they are to Iie
Mother
Wuji...
I'd rather die than Iet you find me
That siIIy boy wouIdn't have gotten far He must be nearby
I wonder what Zhen'er has said to offend Brother Zhang
He's so young I'm reaIIy worried about him
If anything happens to him
I wouIdn't be abIe to atone for my sin even if I die a horribIe death
- Zhen'er - Father
How did you offend Brother Zhang to make him Ieave without saying goodbye?
I mereIy bIocked his acupoints It was just ajoke
I didn't know he'd take it seriousIy
Wuji... Come on out
I'II apoIogise to you
- I... I'II beat you - Father, don't hit me
I didn't mean it. Wuji, come out
If you can't find Brother Zhang I'II kiII you
- I'II kiII you... - Father, don't hit me...
Wuji, come on out. Father wiII kiII me
- I'II beat you to death - Wuji, come out quickIy
Stop acting. I know everything
- Wuji... - You won't be abIe to catch me
Wuji, that's too dangerous
Father...
No matter how you torment me I wiII never teII you where godfather is
What are you taIking about, Brother Zhang?
Why wouId I torment you?
I know your eviI pIans
You want me to bring you to Ice-Fire IsIand I'II just Iead you in aII directions
so we'II die together
Listen to me, you're mistaken
I swear to you that I wiII die a horribIe death if I'm Iying to you
There's a Iedge up there Let's cIimb up sIowIy
Promise me, you mustn't kiII yourseIf
If you don't force me, I won't die
Fine... Let's cIimb up and taIk Iater Come on
UncIe Zhu, you've wasted your efforts to pIay up to me
since you're just doing to die
The Dragon Sabre is useIess to you now
Don't taIk nonsense there must be a way out
I was hit by Xuan Ming Divine PaIm There is no hope for me
But it's a pity for UncIe Zhu to give up your Iife and starve to death with me
Stop this nonsense. Do you want to die?
- Don't do that... - I'II kiII you
Wuji
Wuji, don't run
Wuji, stop right there
Wuji...
Wuji, come out. I won't chase you
Come on out
It's so beautifuI here
I won't mind dying here
Brother Zhang
Come out, you'II be suffocated in there
Come out, Brother Zhang
I Iike it in here
Brother Zhang, come out
- Brother Zhang - Stop shouting
There's food here
Catch this
You nasty boy
Brother Zhang, pIease throw a few more this way
I'm thirsty and hungry
Don't dream of it. You're an eviI man You deserve to starve to death
I can't bring myseIf to be nasty
- I'II give you more tomorrow - You nasty boy
I don't beIieve there are fruits to Iast you a Iifetime
You have to come out eventuaIIy Just give me one more
You'II get a stomach-ache from eating it aII. Give me more!
Cousin, UncIe has good fortune He'II be fine
Don't worry
Indeed, your father is highIy skiIIed He'II be fine
I'II go and Iook for him once the sun rises
It's aII Zhang Wuji's fauIt
If I see him again, I must kiII him
Brother Zhang, come on out You'II suffocate in there
Come on out...
Sir, I can't breathe
I feeI faint
Don't faint, come on out
I'm not as stupid as you are I'm off for some fun
SmeIIs great
Brother Zhang, what are you eating?
I...
I am not eating anything. Are you hungry?
Yes
You are not eating? That's impossibIe
I can smeII griIIed fish from here
He must be starving
I can't finish such a big fish anyway
I'II give him haIf
Meat repIenishes energy
He might charge in when he's energized
I'd better not give him any
UncIe Zhu
Great...
Give me as many as possibIe PIease give me some more
UncIe Zhu, you can have some fruits
Father
What is it?
The cIiff is reaIIy steep I couIdn't go down any further
I think your father... may not have survived
- Father... - Cousin... Don't be sad
Take care of your heaIth
If anything shouId happen to uncIe
I'II take care of you
Why are you injured?
You must have been naughty
You'II be fine after I treat you
Don't run
Don't run, it's dangerous
What do you want?
You're hurt and want me to heaI you?
Lie down
That's strange
Bear with the pain
Don't move
That's weird
Who has put these 4 books in the stomach of the monkey?
The characters are curvy
Hey, there are Chinese characters
Support with both hands Breathe a singIe breath
The right is strong and focused whiIe the Ieft rests
When the right has passed the Ieft takes strength in return
Like the wheeIs of a carriage Iet your body go with the fIow
Parts which do not, wiII not be in sync
Isn't this the Jiuyang Techniques
Great-grandteacher and UncIe Yu has taught me before?
It's not supposed to be so Iengthy
Jiuyang Techniques...
Jiuyang ManuaI...
CouId this be the Jiuyang ManuaI Great-grandteacher has mentioned before?
Great-grandteacher toId me that
if I can Iearn the Jiuyang ManuaI in its entirety
I can rid the coId poison in my body
Then...
I'II be cured
But why wouId Jiuyang ManuaI be in the monkey's stomach?
Whatever. Anyway, I'm going to die
I'II give it a shot
Wuji...
Teacher, what happened to Wuji?
Wuji has disappeared He can't be found
UncIe Hu and his missus are dead
I saw their graves
But I've searched ButterfIy VaIIey and couIdn't find Brother Zhang
The HeaIing Sage has been renowned in the worId for many years
But within a year, both husband and wife have passed away
Something must have happened
UncIe Hu didn't have many friends
We can't even try to find out more
Teacher
shaII I take Second Brother and Sixth Brother with me to investigate?
Wuji is just a chiId
No one wiII harm him
I'm sure we'II find him
I'm just worried about the coId poison in him
He may not be abIe to stand it for Iong
UncIe Zhu, it's Iunch time
Fruits again? Isn't there something eIse?
You can throw them back if you don't want them
I stopped here the Iast time
The energy starts from the spine and fIows downwards
Withdraw it back from both shouIders and focus in the waist
This energy that fIows from up to down is caIIed ''concentrates as one''
Spread from the waist to the spine Position on sides, extend to fingertips
This energy that fIows from down to up is caIIed ''opens up''
To concentrate is to withdraw To open is to reIease
To grasp this concept is to understand Yin and Yang...
Zhiruo, you're too soft-hearted
I await your guidance
You must not hesitate when kiIIing an enemy
You must not weaken
If I had retaIiated, you wouId have died
Thank you for your guidance
You're inexperienced in kiIIing enemies
If you foIIow Teacher out into the worId you'II Iearn much more
Your sword techniques did improve a Iot Keep it up
Don't disappoint Teacher, understand?
I understand
I wiII do my best to show my gratitude to Teacher for raising me
- Minjun - Yes
You must work hard too Your skiIIs have deteriorated
Yes, Teacher
Teacher
Mr Iron Zither of KunIun Sect wishes to see you
He Taichong?
What does he want?
Priestess Miejue, I hope you've been weII
I, He Taichong, and my discipIe are here to wish you weII
I don't deserve it. PIease have a seat
Thank you
Mr Iron Zither, I'm sure you're not here at this hour
just to greet this oId Iady
You see
in recent years
Demon Sect has become Iess savage because of discipIinary action
from us righteous sects
But, in recent months
things seem to be getting out of hand again
They've been kiIIing martiaI artists everywhere
Priestess, I'm sure you are aware of this
I've not Ieft Mount Ermei much IateIy
and haven't heard much about the affairs of the worId
Two monks were kiIIed on 23rd June
Six of my KunIun discipIes were kiIIed on 12th JuIy
and Huashan, Kongtong Sects as weII...
Mr Iron Zither
What does aII this have to do with Ermei Sect?
As far as I know
your brother Gu Hongzi was aIso kiIIed by Demon Sect
That was a Iong time ago
Indeed
But there is a rumour IateIy that
your discipIe Ji Xiaofu was aIso kiIIed because...
Mr Iron Zither...
I'm sorry. I aImost forgot that
Ji Xiaofu was your favourite discipIe
What do you want Ermei Sect to do?
It's simpIe
I wouId Iike tojoin forces with aII the righteous sects to eIiminate Demon Sect
to prevent more troubIe and unrest in the future
ShaoIin, Huashan, Kongtong and Beggar Sects
have aIready reached an agreement with me
As for Wudang Sect...
As for Wudang, you were hoping I'd be abIe to convince them tojoin you?
Yes, that is what I'm hoping for
Priestess, you shouId know that
KunIun, ShaoIin and Wudang have some bad bIood between us in the past
But Ermei Sect and Wudang Sect are on good terms with each other...
and aImost became in-Iaws
It wouId be best for Ermei Sect to convince Wudang Sect
to fight Demon Sect with us
Have some soup, Teacher
Teacher, are you reaIIy going to Mount Wudang?
I wouId Iove to capture that demon Yang Xiao
and kiII him myseIf
He dared to seduce my discipIe
and broke Ermei Sect's code of moraIity
I have sworn to hack him into a thousand pieces
But Ming Sect members are eIusive
I stiII can't find him after a year
Now, there is an opportunity for me to catch him
I won't give it up
Yang Xiao
For personaI and professionaI reasons
I wiII kiII you for sure
What? EIiminate Ming Sect?
Yes
I'm here today
to invite True Master Zhang tojoin us in this grand pIan
We'II exterminate Ming Sect together to protect the pugiIistic worId
Ming Sect may be a IittIe savage in its ways
But 6 major Sects joining forces to attack one sect
seems Iike an unrighteous thing to do
He had the guts to do harm to our discipIes
and shouId have expected to be duIy punished
Good or eviI
wiII find their way to band as one They wiII have their own reasons
Besides, this concerns the Iives of many
I beIieve this requires further consideration
We must not be rash
I guess
True Master Zhang wiII not join us in the Demon-Extermination
I just want to prevent a disaster in the pugiIistic worId
Good wiII aIways oppose EviI
Demon Sect shouId have seen this coming
He has dared to bring harm to us 5 Sects so far
I think very soon...
Wudang wiII be attacked as weII
What do you aII think?
Teacher, if I may speak Demon Sect deserves to be eIiminated
If Wudang does nothing to heIp
the 5 major Sects in this
we wouId offend peopIe in the pugiIistic worId
Fourth Brother, what do you think?
Teacher and Big Brother both have good reasons
I feeI that if Demon Sect is truIy despicabIe
then it is onIy fair for us to exterminate them
But if they're innocent
we must not take part
This is an infaIIibIe pIan
- Yuanqiao - Teacher
Tomorrow you wiII Iead the discipIes down the mountain
tojoin the major Sects
But remember, you must be carefuI before you take action
Yes, Sir
- This way pIease, Priestess - Thank you
- Father - Qingshu
Priestess, this is my son, Qingshu
Qingshu, pay your respects to Priestess Miejue
My respects to you, Priestess Miejue
Accepted
What a fine young man He takes after his father indeed
You're too kind, Priestess
And these 3 Iadies are martiaI artists from Ermei
Greetings to 3 eIder sisters
Greetings, Master Song
Qingshu
Go and instruct the kitchen to prepare food and drinks
We have guests tonight
Yes, father
- This way pIease, Priestess - Thank you
