Hanguang Jun,
are there female cultivators who are affable and flexible
and don't mind that there are puppets in your clan?
What for?
It's not for me.
It's just...
Wen Ning is an adult now.
-I mean... -Master!
Wen Ning can't follow me like this all the time.
He is not my servant after all.
Besides...
After this matter is over,
he indeed can't follow me any longer.
Following me like this
is not an appropriate life for him.
As a friend,
I need to find him a good company.
Hanguang Jun, what do you think?
At least,
he needs to make some friends.
Lan Zhan,
I think Sizhui is a perfect candidate.
That's enough, kids.
Quit teasing him.
Wen Ning,
it's a little inconvenient for you to walk on the streets.
You might as well have a rest in the inn.
Lan Zhan and I will go have a look.
But--
Take it easy.
It's going to be fine.
Lan Zhan, wait for me.
OIL LAMP AND CANDLES STORE
Sachets on sale! Have a look!
Look at those sachets.
Master, have a look.
YUNPING CITY
The place bought by Jin Guangyao
turned out to be a Guanyin Temple.
GUANYIN HALL
What do you think?
There is a magic circle suppressing something.
I knew Jin Guangyao
couldn't put the address in his hidden chamber for nothing.
Can it be cracked?
Not easily.
We need to wait until night when there are no other people.
Then let's leave right now before we get other people's attention.
Thanks for your medicines.
Without it, my husband's disease
couldn't have been cured so quickly.
Madam, please don't come tomorrow.
What happened?
Starting tomorrow,
our temple will be closed for three days.
Great Master,
I hear that the temple will be closed tomorrow.
Could you please tell me what happened?
Thanks for your concern.
Everything is fine in the temple.
It's just that the utensils and tiles in the temple
have a long history.
So they require some renovation.
I see.
By the way, Great Master,
usually temples are located in the mountains.
It's rare to see a temple in a city.
People in the cities
run back and forth to strike for their life.
Aren't they more in need of such Guanyin Temple
to make wishes
and seek tranquility?
But doesn't the bustle of people
annoy Guanyin Tuas?
Tuas saves people from bitterness.
How could Tuas be annoyed by people?
It makes perfect sense.
So this Guanyin Temple
only enshrines Guanyin Taus?
Right.
Great Master, you are so talented
for knowing Buddhist doctrines without being ordained.
BENEVOLENT GOD WILL BLESS YOU ALL
There is a ward.
We get in through the courtyard.
Wen Ning,
stay outside and guard for us.
If Lan Zhan and I get in without getting out,
go to Yunmeng for Jiang Cheng.
Do you understand?
Master--
I'm just preparing for the worst.
I'm half a wreck,
but we still have Hanguang Jun.
Fairy, shut up.
It's midnight.
Do you want to wake up the whole street?
Fairy!
Zewu Jun.
-Zewu Jun. -Zewu Jun.
Zewu Jun.
Fairy!
If you don't stop, I will stew you!
Where are you going?
Why is Jin Ling here?
Why didn't Wen Ning stop him?
Why did you take me here?
Is anybody here?
Open the door.
Please don't hurt him.
Is anybody inside?
Fairy.
Why are you running back?
Naughty kid,
leave quickly with the dog.
Please.
Jin Ling, run.
I advise Young Master Wei not to whistle.
It doesn't matter if the flute is broken.
But if a finger or tongue is lost,
that would be so tragic.
You have a very good point.
Please.
GUANYIN HALL
Hanguang Jun,
you'd better not make any attempts.
Wangji.
Zewu Jun.
Shamefully,
I was cheated,
I stepped into his trap
and lost my spiritual power.
Even with my swords, Crescent and Ice Crevice,
I can do nothing.
There's no need to feel ashamed.
Isn't Lianfang Zun
best at cheating?
Master Wei,
I have underestimated you.
By the way, I haven't asked you
about how you knew this place.
Don't tell me you and Hanguang Jun were making a sightseeing tour
and happened to be here.
Lianfang Zun,
don't you forget that you hid a large title deed
in your hidden chamber in Fragrance Hall
with the head of Red Blade Master.
Do you remember that?
That's my negligence indeed.
They should be put in different places.
In any case, we are at your mercy now.
So Lianfang Zun,
could you please satisfy my curiosity?
What kind of treasure on earth is stored
in Guanyin Temple?
The price to satisfy your curiosity is high.
Are you sure you want to try, Master Wei?
Not a big...
Jin Guangyao.
Hi, Ling.
What's wrong with you, kid?
Why do you come here at night?
It's none of your business.
The black-maned wonder dog is very ferocious and bites whoever it meets.
Sorry for my incapacity. I let it run away.
Chase and kill it.
That wonder dog is extremely smart.
If it attracts people, there will be trouble.
Yes.
Jin Guangyao.
Fairy was the gift from you.
Do you really want to kill it?
Ling,
what are you doing here?
Clan Leader Jin,
Ling is just a kid.
I know.
And he's your nephew.
Clan Leader Lan,
what are you thinking about?
Of course, I know Jin Ling is a kid
and my nephew.
What do you think I would do to him?
Kill him?
Ling.
You heard me.
If you run about or shout,
maybe I would do something terrible to you.
It's up to you.
Haven't you dug it out?
Let the people inside do it faster.
Understood.
What is he digging?
A tunnel?
The Stygian Tiger Amulet?
Or the suppressed thing?
That was close.
That was so close.
I could have seen a good show like before again.
Back then, you two were
the Yiling Patriarch and a righteous role model.
Both of you were winning all the attention at that time.
But at last, you had to point your weapons at each other.
Isn't it the same today?
Hanguang Jun,
put Bichen down now.
Do you really want to kill Master Wei?
Lan Zhan,
don't listen to him.
I have never blamed you.
Lan Zhan,
you go first to find reinforcements.
Great.
Next,
please sheathe Bichen.
Lan Zhan, no!
Jin Guangyao,
don't go too far.
It's too far for you already?
Next, I even want Hanguang Jun to seal his own spiritual power by himself.
What should you call that?
You...
Lan Zhan.
Zewu Jun,
it's going to rain.
Let's take shelter inside.
Please take it easy.
As long as you follow my order,
I will not hurt you.
Lan Zhan,
you don't have to do this.
That year...
In a nutshell, you owe me nothing.
I don't think I owe you.
So why did you do that?
It's what I should do.
Who is it?
Clan Leader, it's me.
Come in.
What happened?
I ran into him on the way.
I supposed he was useful
and caught him passingly.
Did you hurt him?
No.
He passes out in shock.
Minshan,
don't go too hard.
He can't take threats and being thrown.
Noted.
Why do you hold Huaisang in custody?
With one more clan leader,
it could always make others feel more fearful.
But please don't worry, Clan Leader Lan.
You know how I treated Huaisang in the past.
When it's the right time,
I will surely set you free, uninjured.
Should I believe you?
Do as you like.
Believe it or not.
You don't have choices anyway.
Hanguang Jun.
Yiling Patriarch.
I can't believe
that we will meet again so soon.
Moreover, the situation is reversed.
How about it?
How are you feeling now?
How can you say "reversed"?
In Burial Mounds, you were the one who fled away.
And now your Clan Leader Jin
is so eager to dig for valuables.
Isn't he anxious to flee away?
Under such a circumstance,
Hanguang Jun is still standing his dignity with calmness.
I'll see
how long you can last.
Clan Leader Su,
when you were a disciple in the Lan Clan of Gusu,
we never treated you unfairly.
Why do you have to aim at Wangji?
How dare I aim at Second Master Lan who was born talented?
I just can't stand his attitude, as if he's better than everyone else.
When did Lan Zhan say he was better than everyone else?
If my memory serves me right,
in the principles of the Lan clan of Gusu,
there is one that says, "Don't be arrogant and prideful."
How do you know the principles of Lan so well?
I have transcribed it so many times that I memorized it.
Why did you transcribe the principles of Lan?
Do you think it's my choice?
That...
That was my punishment.
Shame on you.
You...
Clan Leader Su,
is it because Lan Zhan has worn an indifferent face from birth
which makes you think so?
If that's so,
Lan Zhan gets a bum rap.
Obviously, he shows everyone an indifferent face.
Clan Leader Su,
you should feel blessed
that you didn't apprentice in the Jiang Clan of Yunmeng.
Why?
Or else you will be pissed off by me.
When I was young, I always regarded myself
as a prodigy beyond question.
And I didn't confine that thought inside.
I talked about it everywhere.
Shut up.
Clan Leader Su,
I advise you not to hurt us.
Lianfang Zun respects Zewu Jun a lot.
If you hurt Hanguang Jun,
do you think that wouldn't piss off Lianfang Zun?
I never expected
the legendary Yiling Patriarch, whose name frightens
both the just and evil,
to also be afraid of death.
You flatter me.
But I'm not afraid of death.
I just don't want to die.
Playing with words.
Hilarious.
Are "afraid of death" and "don't want to die," different?
Of course, it's different.
My destiny is up to me and loss and gain don't concern me.
"My destiny is up to me" means I don't want to die.
"Loss and gain don't concern me" means I'm not afraid of death.
Is that clear?
How eloquent.
Great.
Since you are not afraid of death,
I'll let you be.
Who is that?
Jiang Cheng.
You're calling me now?
You know how to call me now?
Why did you run away a while ago?
-Lan Zhan. -Fairy!
Fairy, bite him.
Bite him.
Bite him, Fairy.
Fairy, bite him.
Clan Leader Jiang, be careful with the music.
Lan Zhan, what do we do?
Clan Leader Jiang,
the lethality of your attack
makes me want to throw in the towel.
How did you find this place?
Is it because Ling ran about carelessly,
so you followed him here?
Fairy must have led the way for you.
It was me who gave him the dog.
But it's so relentless to me.
Seriously,
he talks like Xue Yang.
Clan Leader Jiang,
what's wrong?
Since a moment ago,
your eyes are always avoiding something
and dare not to see that direction.
Is anything in that direction?
You are the leader of all clans.
Just fight. Why are you talking nonsense?
Still avoiding?
There's nothing horrible there.
It's only Wei Wuxian.
Are you really following Ling here?
What else?
Who else should I come for?
Clan Leader Jiang,
don't answer him.
He is good at talking.
Once you start to talk with him,
your attention will be averted
and your emotion will be stimulated.
Clan Leader Lan,
you know me so well.
Master Wei,
do you see?
Clan Leader Jiang didn't come for you.
He doesn't even want to cast a glance at you.
Clan Leader Jin,
your words don't make sense.
It's not the first day for Clan Leader Jiang to treat me like this.
Do I need you to remind me?
Clan Leader Jiang,
look,
being your senior
is not easy.
Clan Leader Jin,
Isn't being your senior even harder?
Clan Leader Jiang,
yesterday, I heard in Lotus Pier,
you made a mess out of no reason.
Carrying the sword used by the Yiling Patriarch before,
you ran everywhere
and asked anyone you met to draw it.
My sword?
Didn't I give Suibian to Wen Ning?
No.
Honestly, I didn't see him holding it today.
But how could it end up in Jiang Cheng's hands?
Why did he ask others to draw the sword?
Has he drawn it by himself?
Wei Ying, calm down.
I heard that no one could draw that sword out.
But you drew it out.
That's strange.
Sixteen years ago,
when I collected this sword,
it sealed itself.
Except for the Yiling Patriarch himself,
others can never draw it out.
Shut up.
So I am reminded
Master Wei was a really carefree and arrogant figure that year.
He went anywhere without his sword
and found different excuses every time.
I have found it very strange.
What do you think?
What on earth do you want to say?
Clan Leader Jiang,
you are so marvelous.
The youngest clan leader,
who rebuilt Lotus Pier on his own.
I admire you very much.
But I remember you were no match for Master Wei in every aspect before.
May I ask,
how did you catch up from behind after the Sunshot Campaign?
Did you
eat any golden core or panacea?
Jiang Cheng, be careful!
Jiang Cheng.
Please don't move.
Help him to sit down gently.
Get lost.
Fairy, run now!
They are going to kill you.
Clan Leader.
What? You haven't got it?
Sorry for my incapacity.
This dog is spineless.
When it has someone's back, it is aggressive.
But when it knows the situation is bad, it runs quickly.
And it runs faster than anyone.
Clan Leader, we have dug it out.
One part is shown.
Dig it out quickly.
Yes.
Be careful.
Jiang Cheng,
thank you for stopping that string
or else it would have been terrible.
Shut up.
Did you know about it?
When did Wen Ning tell him?
While you were knocked out.
That's how we left Lotus Pier?
He's very sorry about that.
I've told him time and again
to never speak of it.
Never speak of what?
