"It's a tower of joy and sorrow, gatherings and farewells."
"As the rose and shadow scatter, loneliness resurfaces."
"Flowers bloom on the other side, while they wilt where we stand."
"Snow Tower, Episode 53"
I have investigated the matter.
The urgent priority now...
is to cure those who have been poisoned.
If the poison enters their heart, nothing can save them.
Indeed, Mistress.
Qing Hui,
gather those who have been poisoned.
I will cure them myself.
As you wish, Mistress.
It's just that...
too many were poisoned.
And the poison is not easy to cure.
May I ask,
what solution have you in mind?
Of course, I know that.
Just follow my orders.
Yes, Mistress.
Could it be...
that the device to shut down the Holy Lake...
is connected to the Grand Hall?
Tower Master,
urgent news from LAN Xue Hall.
"Xue Wen is safe. I'll save her. For the safety of Miaojiang people,"
"I invite you to join me for a word at the Moon Sect."
Thank goodness.
Zi Mo,
send Jing here.
Yes, Sir.
Wait.
Forget it.
She might not want to see me now.
When you're free,
let Jing know...
that my mother is safe at the Moon Sect.
What happened before...
were Ming He's evil intentions.
Let her be assured.
Understood.
I will convey your message.
But Tower Master,
what should we do about the letter?
Seems that...
I have to go to Nanjiang again.
Tower Master,
your body has yet to recover.
You shouldn't tire yourself.
Besides, the tower just survived a catastrophe.
If Ming He makes a move...
while you're there,
you may not be able to handle it.
I should accomplish...
what is requested of me.
I have to go.
By the way,
don't let Jing know about this,
so that she won't be worried.
I understand.
But the letter was not signed.
Do you know who asked for the favor?
He's the High Priest of the Moon Sect,
Jia Ruo.
My mother is safe.
He knows how to save her.
And this trip,
is for the people of Nanjiang.
How's Huang Quan recovering?
Don't worry, Tower Master.
Huang Quan is doing fine.
It's just that...
he was on good terms with Gao Meng Fei before,
and he was taught by Gao Meng Fei too.
Looking at how things came to an end,
he can't help but be sad.
Tell him to let go.
Gao Meng Fei acted on his own accord.
Even without anyone to console him,
things will still come to a same end.
And,
from today onwards,
you don't have to go to the Feng Qing Garden.
I will let someone else take over.
Don't you worry.
Tower Master?
I know.
Huang Quan's still young and innocent.
If he's decided that you're the one for him,
he'll not change his mind.
He'll refuse to see...
you entering the Feng Qing Garden everyday.
For being so considerate,
I...
am grateful to you.
But please...
stop thinking only for us.
If you and Lady Jing...
have any...
have any conflicts,
you should solve it soon.
I spoke too much.
Please excuse me.
In the lake,
I heard voices coming from the Grand Hall.
So the device connecting to the lake...
must definitely be in this Grand Hall.
Could the device...
be on the Mistress’s throne?
The shadow of the crescent here is constantly the same.
But sunlight and moonlight...
are always changing directions.
It'll never shine through the Grand Hall.
Unless...
this is not caused by sunlight,
but by the minerals underneath.
Seems like this...
is the device to shut down the gates in the lake.
What's happening?
Why do I feel such pain?
I practiced the Xuan Yin Heart Sutra head on,
but never knew that the venom...
would act up so quickly.
My days are numbered.
I thought I would never recall the past...
and had planned to accompany Ming He...
and protect the Moon Sect.
Ming He.
Jia Ruo.
Is it really you?
Jia Ruo!
Don't leave me.
Were you happy all these years...
with me here in the sect?
I'm happy.
I'm really happy!
These years,
have been the happiest days...
of my entire life.
But now,
I just hope that on the day I die,
Ming He can hate me more.
That way, she won't be too sad.
Now that I'm in the Moon Sect,
I can't let Ming He commit anymore sins.
The only one I can...
ask help from now is Xiao Yi Qing.
Everyone here has contributed greatly...
in exterminating the rebels.
Especially Shu Jing Rong and Huang Quan.
From today onwards,
Huang Quan will take over Chuihua House.
He'll be in complete charge.
I oblige.
I will do all I can...
to manage Chuihua House.
I will not disappoint you.
Others can leave for now.
Yes, sir.
I've summoned all of you here today...
to inform you on certain matters.
I've decided...
to pay a visit to Nanjiang soon.
Tower Master.
Do you intend to attack the Moon Sect again?
Tower Master.
You have yet to recover.
This trip is tiring.
You might not be...
I've made up mind.
Say no more.
This time,
Nan Chu, Hong Chen and Bi Luo will accompany me.
Shu Jing Rong.
You, Zi Mo and Huang Quan are to stay here.
Take care of the Snow Tower.
No mistakes are allowed.
Obliged.
Only the strongest...
can protect...
one's prized possessions.
Ming He.
Your eyes!
You're not curing me.
You are...
Yes.
I've mastered the Xuan Yin Heart Sutra too.
Whenever I use the Blood Venom...
to relieve you from counteracting,
My body...
will keep some of your inner energy.
Though it's not much,
but I can use it as a base...
to accelerate my cultivations.
Besides, I used the Blood Venom bug as a medium...
to consume Moon God Flower's poison.
My cultivation speed...
is higher than yours by a few times.
You're asking for death.
If the bug consumes the poison,
it will be extremely violent and uncontrollable.
When that happens,
if the poison enters your heart,
then...
What about it?
If I don't do so,
how can I fight Shu Jing Rong?
Now,
I'm the only one protecting Moon Sect.
I can only...
rely on myself.
Ming He.
I was too careless.
I didn't notice what you've been up to.
"Yi Xue Hall"
Jing.
I'm going to take care of Ming Yan.
Please excuse me.
If I put an end to Moon Sect this time...
to avenge Ye Feng Sha and Ren Fei Yang...
and relieve Shi Ming Yan's hatred,
will you let go your grudge against me?
I would never.
Your decisions...
were never my authority to question.
Don't you wish to know...
why I made such arrangements...
for this trip to the Moon Sect?
I should obey your orders as your subordinate!
Anything else,
I wouldn't dare and have no place to ask!
This Moon Spirit...
was given to me by you...
when the poison in me reacted.
Now that I'm well,
you should take it back.
In this backstabbing...
and scheming pugilistic world,
though these two elites had some misunderstandings,
they are still thinking for each other.
When Lady Jing assured safety...
for Shi Ming Yan on her accord,
she seemed to be throwing tantrums at the Tower Master.
But she was actually carrying the burden for him...
and bore his infamy.
And now the Tower Master forbids her to follow him to Nanjiang...
to avoid her being injured again.
In the Tower Master's heart,
he only has eyes...
for Lady Jing only.
Xue Qing Ming,
you should bury your affections...
for him deep in your heart.
You have been consuming your medicine on time...
and rested well.
When I read your pulse,
your pulse was steady and strong.
If I don't take the medicine,
how can I my body keep going?
It's been hard on you, Lady Xue.
I know...
you've did your best...
to cure me.
I don't deserve...
such praises from you.
It's just that...
Though I'm not under the Snow Tower's command,
there are some words...
that I must say.
Just say it, Lady Xue.
This time to Nanjiang,
we are bound to encounter an ugly fight.
You will be in bad shape...
if you fight with all your might.
I know I can't talk you out of it,
but I have to remind you.
If you are still...
stubborn as before...
and refuse to rest,
I'm worried...
I understand...
what you're trying to say.
But sometimes,
we can't control the happenings around us.
Don't worry.
Right now, I still have...
plenty of attachments and affairs left undone.
I will find a way to stay strong.
But you haven't fully recovered your inner energy.
From the battle with Gao Meng Fei,
you've depleted plenty of it.
When the time comes for the big battle,
you might not be able to cope.
And you still have the Lovesick Tears on you.
As a physician,
I had no methods to cure...
and alleviate you from your illness.
I'm truly sorry.
Then there's no point in me...
drinking the Feathered Snow Lotus.
Xiao Yi Qing!
I'll choose my own death.
How does it concern you?
Since you've decided to go to Nanjiang,
then I...
will travel the far and wide...
to find unique herbs...
that can hopefully cure you effectively.
You were never tied to Snow Tower.
You may come and go as you like.
Why do you need my approval?
Thank you, Tower Master.
"Snow Tower"
For as long as I breathe,
I'll never let...
you thieves get your way!
Almost everyone in the Tian Li Assembly is eliminated.
Your struggles...
will all be in vain!
Just surrender.
If I am to die for a cause...
then my life...
has been worthy.
Never thought that the Tian Li Assembly...
would have such a loyal person.
It's rare indeed.
These are the golden leaves from the Qian family!
It's all from the Tian Li Assembly slogan...
"Arrest the violent, assist the weak! Support justice!"
By robbing the rich for the poor.
I told you...
to not underestimate me.
You've lost.
Did I?
Justice.
Fairness.
Protecting the weak.
No matter what you're protecting,
you need strength to do it.
Since you lack strength,
you placed your hope in the hands of others.
By relying on someone else to fulfill your wishes.
But in the end,
you will be disappointed.
Power comes from your own strength.
You have nothing now.
So you can't protect anything.
Snow Tower.
These three words...
were written by the late Tower Master.
So many years had passed.
The Snow Tower...
had encountered various danger and bloodshed.
But alas,
it stays the same.
The Tower Master and the others has left for days.
According to the distance,
they will reach...
the borders of Nanjiang by summer.
"Snow Tower"
Zi Mo,
I know what you're worried about.
I'm thinking the same too.
But,
since we've received Tower Master's orders,
we have to protect the tower at all costs.
And not let him worry.
Alright.
You and I...
will stay in the tower...
and wait for their victory.
Do you want to destroy the Moon Sect?
Or...
Or do you...
want to torment me little by little?
No, no!
No!
I will return the favors that I owe you in these past few years.
And then little by little,
I will make you pay for the lives of Sand Valley.
Greetings, Mistress.
Reporting back, Mistress.
There was news that...
Xiao Yi Qing is heading to Nanjiang from Snow Tower.
I think...
they came prepared this time.
Does the High Priest know?
The High Priest knows.
It's just that...
he didn't take any action.
So I came here to ask for your opinion.
All right.
Leave for now.
Yes, Mistress.
Xiao Yi Qing.
This time,
you'll come alive...
and go back dead!
Yi Qing!
Nan Chu.
Sit and talk.
Any news yet?
Yes.
"East side of the lotus pond at a quarter to 4 a.m."
Seems like they're acting fast.
They knew where we were...
when we've just arrived.
Yi Qing,
now that we got the news...
and you can be at ease.
Take some rest.
We'll talk tomorrow.
No.
We can't delay any further.
Nan Chu,
I need you along with me this time.
Cover for me.
All right.
By listening to your footsteps,
I can tell your inner energy has not recovered fully.
Can you lend me the Moon Spirit like this?
It doesn't matter.
I showed up...
because I've made my decision.
How should I call you?
Jia Ruo or Qing LAN?
As expected.
I can keep Ming Er from knowing,
but not you.
Jing Rong told me that...
she removed the golden needle.
I've asked Lady Xue.
If the golden needle is removed,
you're likely to remember the past.
Ming Er knows.
Don't worry.
I've covered it up for you.
I'm sure you have your reasons...
for not telling her.
I respect your decision.
I can no longer call myself...
Qing LAN, the disciple of Bai Di.
The Sand Valley.
Master.
Ming Er.
Qing Yu.
All of this feels like my past life.
I remember them clearly.
Deep in my heart.
But I can't reach for them anymore.
Gao Meng Fei...
I know what you want to say.
If he had decided to change his name to Gao Meng Fei,
this means that he's decided...
to sever his ties with the Sand Valley.
Now that you killed Gao Meng Fei...
during his rebellion,
this means Qing LAN and Qing Yu...
both died at the Sand Valley.
Thanks.
He was ambitious and competitive.
He always wanted a result for everything...
by dueling it out.
He bet on his life...
to battle you.
And he ended up in a tragedy.
But since he realized his dreams,
he will have no regrets.
Is my mother...
alright in the Moon Sect?
Don't worry.
I've made arrangements.
When the time is right,
just do how I've assigned you to do.
Gu Guang will take Madam Xue Wen to safety.
Gu Guang?
When he was injured,
we made a pact.
He'll send Madam Xue Wen out for me,
and I'll save Bing Ling for him.
Alright.
If everything succeeds,
I will fulfill your wish...
as promised.
By then,
please lend me the Moon Spirit...
and complete my collection of the 3 sacred items...
to shut the device in the Moon Sect's Grand Hall.
It's a deal.
Deal.
One more thing.
After this is over,
I want to take Ming He...
safely away from the Moon Sect.
I will take her away.
This time, Nan Chu will lead you two...
and attack the Moon Sect upfront...
to create commotions.
At the same time,
I will enter Moon Sect from another path.
Nan Chu,
I'm leaving the front line...
to you.
Gu Guang!
Bing Ling.
Something major is happening here tonight.
I have to take the chance.
But if the Mistress finds out,
she will never forgive you.
She may execute you too.
Don't worry.
The High Priest will keep us safe.
How is it possible?
Don't bring danger to yourself.
Don't worry.
He promised with his own words.
Time is of the essence.
I have no time to explain.
Let's move now.
Xiao Yi Qing is waiting for you at the foot of the mountain.
Jia Ruo,
you forced me to it.
Qing Hui reported to me...
that you met Xiao Yi Qing.
Now you're here in the lake.
Seems that...
you've discovered the lake's secret.
Tomorrow afternoon,
meet your mother at the foot of Lingjiu Mountain.
Mother.
You've suffered for many years.
Finally today...
Lord Nan Chu,
go and help Madam Xue Wen.
Leave this to us.
So the Left Guardian had betrayed us!
Bing Ling!
Hurry and bring Madam Xue Wen...
to the rendezvous I told you.
What about you?
Don't worry about me.
Leave, both of you!
I'll follow swiftly.
Hurry!
Alright.
Leave!
Madam Xue Wen.
I'm the Lord of Snow Tower.
Please follow me.
Alright.
Do you know...
that the Moon God Flower's poison is leaking towards Nanjiang...
from the Holy Lake?
When that happens,
all the innocent people in Nanjiang...
will be poisoned!
I know.
Besides,
I intended it so.
People in Nanjiang worships the Moon Sect.
They are innocent.
If we lost the hearts of the people,
we will lose our foundation!
I don't care about those ignorant people!
Even if the waters leak...
and poison overflows the whole Nanjiang,
I will not let Snow Tower...
humiliate the Moon Sect!
I know.
You wanted to join forces with Xiao Yi Qing...
to stop the Holy Lake's leakage...
and let him attack the Moon Sect.
A pity,
you won't get what you want.
Jia Ruo,
didn't you want to bless Shu Jing Rong?
Well, I'm going to destroy everything.
Are you rebelling?
The Moon Soul is the sacred item of the Leader.
Farewell Sword?
I control the Blood Venom,
so it subdues to me.
If it can relieve you...
from your body's poison...
and save you,
it will definitely heed me...
and weaken your energy.
Without you,
I can still protect the Moon Sect on my own.
But,
if I don't get what I want,
no one else will get it!
Fine.
It's time for me to repay you.
Guards!
Lock the High Priest away!
