[Listening Snow Tower] [Episode 33]
Benefactor?
It was the Snow Tower who massacred the Yin family!
All of the Yin family were killed but me.
Then, you made me feel grateful for staying in the tower; and so, I forged the Guo Se Sword.
All of it was just a plot by Xiao Yiqing.
Nonsense! Senior Brother wouldn't do that.
You won't believe it now.
Wait until tomorrow, you and all the other heroes in the pugilistic world,
will see right through Xiao Yiqing for the insincere and cold-blooded man he truly is.
But now that you've caught me,
I won't let you go.
You'll cause us trouble.
What do you want?
We must work this plan well.
Liuzhu, you go back first.
We can't let the tower disciples notice anything.
I'll settle Chi Xiaotai.
Spare her life for now.
When necessary, we can threaten Xiao Yiqing with her.
Under Lady Yin's cover,
a detailed defense layout of the Snow Tower has been probed out.
I drew this from what I remembered, but it has no difference from the exact layout.
Are the suicide warriors set?
They're all set.
All set for the launch of the Guo Se Sword tomorrow and awaiting your signal.
[Defense Layout of Snow Tower]
It all depends on tomorrow.
Sir, what should we do with this lady from the Snow Tower?
Don't worry.
She is Xiao Yiqing's beloved junior.
Keep her. Perhaps she'll come in handy tomorrow.
Let's welcome Lady Yin to present the Guo Se Sword.
I'm Yin Liuzhu of Longquan.
I specially forged the Guo Se Sword, in dedication to the pugilistic world.
Forgive me for saying more.
The forging of the Guo Se Sword has used all the life and blood of the Yin family.
It also carries the vengeance of the Yin family.
Therefore, the owner of the Guo Se Sword must not only excel in swordplay,
but most importantly, he must be a man of good conduct.
He'll set an example, and do the Yin family justice and take revenge!
The murder of the Yin family startled the world.
We're all filled with indignation, and feel a strong hatred towards the murderer.
Don't worry, Lady Yin.
We will avenge the death of the Yin family.
Avenge the Yin family! Avenge the Yin family!
I, Liuzhu, thank all the heroes in advance.
My Lady, Tower Master is...
What should we do now?
Lady Xiaotai was on patrol last night and hasn't returned.
We lost sight of her.
It's now the sword appreciation ceremony.
After the ceremony, we'll send people to search for her.
Moreover, Xiaotai with her playful nature might come back in a while.
You do seem like a real Lady now.
Okay, go on with your important matters!
I'll look for Xiaotai myself!
Everyone, the Guo Se Sword is the most powerful sword in the world.
We'll view and test the sword today.
Nan Chu will represent the Snow Tower.
For those who are interested, come forward in turn to experience the power of the Guo Se Sword.
Much obliged!
Lady Hong Chen.
All these disciples seem unfamiliar to me.
We're short of manpower due to the banquet,
and these disciples were sent over by Madam Zi from Feng Qing Garden to assist us.
On normal days, we only work in the Garden's kitchen.
We don't get much chance to come out.
But today, it's busy a day in Feng Qing Garden.
Therefore, Madam Zi sent us here.
It's difficult to oversee the situation as it's crowded today.
- You must step up surveillance. - Yes!
Go and get ready now.
Don't delay the banquet.
Yes!
The ceremony has started.
Take action once you see the signal.
Meanwhile, I'll lead those from other sects to sneak in.
We'll strike from without and within... and take down the Snow Tower at a stroke.
Yes!
A good sword indeed, the Guo Se Sword lives up to its name.
The Yin's way of forging is truly exquisite.
Every one of you came here for the Guo Se Sword.
But for me, I came for Lady Yin.
I, Wugou from Nangong, will take no one but Yin Liuzhu to be my wife.
Furthermore, I'm determined to win the Guo Se Sword.
Mister Wugou, you've high aspirations to win the Guo Se Sword.
But what about the murderer who killed the Yin family?
I certainly have a clue to it.
- Go! - Yes!
What are you doing, Mister Wugou?
Nangong Wugou, how dare you secretly poison us!
It's said that... the Snow Tower is impregnable and is always foolproof.
But you made a false step today.
Everyone, in recent years, the Snow Tower has gradually become ruthless.
From the extermination of the Thunderbolt Hall, the murder of the Lei family,
to the Flower Palace invasion with the Long's,
all these behaviors clearly show their ambitions to rule the world.
I can't imagine... which sect in the pugilistic world will be next to get into trouble?
Snow Tower has always been forthright.
For all what we've done, there's nothing which breaches the code of honor.
You have no right to spread nonsense here.
Well, if there's anything wrong with what I said,
I'd urge the Tower Master to step up.
Explain to all the masters present that the Snow Tower has no intentions of taking over the martial community.
- He's right! Get Tower Master Xiao to come out! - Right!
- Everyone. - Come out! Come out!
The Tower Master isn't feeling well today, that's why he couldn't come.
Is Tower Master Xiao really ill, or is he afraid to face us?
- Exactly! Ask him to come out! - Give us an explanation!
Give us an explanation!
Come out now!
Give us an explanation!
Indeed.
If he's innocent, why is he hiding himself from us?
That's right! Indeed!
Everyone,
the Snow Tower has revealed their true colors.
First, they exterminated the Yin family and took the Heavenly Arsenal Manual.
Then, pretended to be kind-hearted and took in the orphan girl.
Lastly, they got her to forge the Guo Se Sword.
How could such ruthless people with fierce ambitions be allowed to exist in the pugilistic world?
I, Nangong Wugou, shall serve justice for Heaven's sake.
All the heroes present here can be my witness.
In recent years, the Snow Tower has been coveting for the Guo Se Sword.
They repeatedly threatened and bribed the Yin family to cast the Guo Se Sword for them.
This letter was written to the Yin family by the late Tower Master, Xiao Shishui.
It clearly states their thirst for the Guo Se Sword.
It's true.
It's true!
After the Snow Tower exterminated the Yin family, they even sent men to kill me at the Yin residence.
Those were the top killers of Chuihua House by the Snow Tower.
Lady Jing was there, too; don't you dare deny it.
I only told Tower Master Xiao about this before departing.
Where did all these assassins come from?
Could it be...
Could it be that there's a spy in Snow Tower?
That's impossible.
Wugou, how could you stand truth on its head!
I stand truth on its head?
But what I've said today are all facts.
If either one isn't true,
Lady Jing, you need to show us the proof.
If you can't prove it, I, Nangong Wugou, shall serve justice for the heavens today!
Nangong Wugou, you're the one who manipulated all these.
How much longer do you intend to lie?
Liuzhu!
Do you remember this?
Are you in trouble, Lady?
I'm Nangong Wugou.
Allow me.
Would you mind if I cut your hair, Lady?
Thank you, Sir.
This...
Lady Yin!
- Why are you here so late? - Please don't be angry.
I went to get scissors just now.
Master and the Nangong family were arguing about the pugilistic world.
Therefore, I eavesdropped for a while out of curiosity.
Nangong family?
Look.
Lady Yin!
Who is it?
It's me, Lady Yin.
Lady Yin!
Ling'er!
Ling'er, what are you doing here?
Lady Yin, it's my bad.
I owe my life to you and Madam.
But after the Yin family got into trouble, I didn't do anything.
What's worse is I still thought to come back here in search of money.
I feel terribly sorry to you, Lady Yin!
I feel terribly sorry to the Yin family!
You have to make ends meet.
I won't blame you.
Really?
Since we were young, I've treated you as my younger sister.
Knowing you're safe and alive now, I couldn't be happier.
Why would I blame you?
Lady Yin.
This...
This is...
On the night when the Yin family was killed, I hid in the bushes outside the Yin residence,
so I was lucky to leave unharmed.
After all those killers were gone, I sneaked back into the Yin residence to check.
I found this on the floor.
I know this means a lot to you.
That's why I dare not sell it away.
I kept it close to me.
Are you sure you found it that night, not later?
I'm sure!
It's because there came another troop guarding outside the residence.
I couldn't get close after that.
Today, I finally had the courage to come again.
That night, you didn't go to the Yin residence?
When I heard you were taken, I was really anxious.
I just wanted to save you from the Snow Tower.
Did you bring the hair bell?
Back then, this hair bell was our token of affection.
Little did I know, your insincerity and lies
would make this hair bell the proof of your massacre of the Yin family!
Everyone, the truth is out now.
The one who massacred the Yin family that day was actually Nangong Wugou!
Nangong Wugou, perhaps our encounter back then was already a scheme.
Your scheme to kill the Yin family, seize Heavenly Arsenal Manual,
and take possession of the Guo Se Sword!
Nangong Wugou was just here accusing the Snow Tower of the murder.
How did he turn out to be the murderer in the end?
Yes! Right!
I would never have guessed that the Yin family was actually murdered by the Nangong family!
How shocking!
Liuzhu, don't you be deceived by the sweet talk of the Snow Tower!
Don't be used by those with ulterior motives!
Community of martial arts, the Snow Tower has been unjust and now lacks support.
Today, let's exterminate the Snow Tower altogether so that we won't be restrained by them anymore.
We will save the pugilistic world!
Tower Master Xiao is here!
Since when did the Nangong family have the authority to tarnish the Snow Tower's reputation?
Xiao Yiqing.
Tower Master Xiao seems fine.
Nangong Wugou!
Didn't you say he was badly injured and in a coma?
How dare you send the Moon Sect fake news!
What are you up to!
You're betraying the Moon Sect!
Nangong Wuguo, you colluded with the Moon Sect
and used a few tricks to get into the Snow Tower.
Do you think your associates could have easy access to the Snow Tower?
Was that a show put up by both of you?
If it wasn't done this way, how could we tell the world what you've done?
Impossible! What about the defense layout and medicine?
You're right!
I lured your subordinate to see the defense layout on purpose.
The reason being was to lead you to the trap we set earlier.
Of course, I didn't poison the men of the Snow Tower.
You have only yourself to blame!
Tower Master Xiao and all heroes and warriors, please do the Yin family justice!
No!
This is only their side of the story!
Xiao Yiqing!
Don't you try to frame me!
If you're trying to wipe out the Nangong family, you can simply put up a battle!
There's no need for such furtive tactics!
Liuzhu, don't be deceived by Xiao Yiqing!
It's his old trick to take advantage of people.
You and I have come a long way.
Don't you know my feelings for you?
I've known you too well; you can always tell a good lie.
That's why in the past, I believed you without a doubt.
But now, do you think I'll still believe in you?
Today, it was I who asked Tower Master Xiao to avenge my family.
It wasn't the Snow Tower trying to cause trouble.
We set this up together to lure you into the trap,
so that I could take revenge on you.
So, in your eyes, our love is so fragile.
If I didn't love you, I'm afraid you would be dead by now.
If I didn't love you, I wouldn't have risked myself just to invade the Snow Tower!
A good sword indeed.
So perfectly poised, such piercing coldness.
Lady Jing, I think only a person like you could take control of the Blood Rose's murderous aura.
Thank you, Lady Yin.
The sword appreciation ceremony is approaching, but you came to Heavenly Arsenal Hall.
I guess you're here for more than just the Blood Rose Sword maintenance.
Last time, when a lady from the Snow Tower got married,
she left an heirloom jade hairpin over here.
As a way to break with the past and make a fresh start.
Unfortunately, her love was finally ruined in repeated trials and deception.
Although I'm a woman who stays home, I, too, have heard of this.
Nowadays, amidst the pugilistic world,
there are different opinions on the matter regarding Jiang Qianmei and Master Long.
Rumors of all sorts are heard of.
I only hope that when you take revenge,
you don't risk your life with it.
No matter how many hardships Qianmei had suffered,
she finally made it through and survived.
A swordsmith's hands... are meant to cast a good sword, but not to sway a sword.
At Snow Tower, we have plenty of good swordsmen,
why bother doing it yourself?
No matter how much it takes, those who killed the Yin family must die.
Liuzhu, revenge must be taken for sure.
But there are a million ways to love someone.
Lady Yin, if you insist to risk yourself for it, aren't you being too kind to the culprit?
If he is no longer in your heart, you don't owe him anything for his death,
unless you're still in love with him.
No, I'm not.
I have nothing but hatred for him!
Thanks for reminding me, Lady Jing.
But I must avenge the death of the Yin family.
Since I've already found out the truth, I can never stand by.
I know exactly how you feel.
But I hope you can think about your parents.
Now their spirits are in Heaven, I'm sure they hope you'd live on safely.
For their sake, let yourself off.
Don't worry.
The Snow Tower is here for you.
I appreciate your kindness, Lady Jing.
As for the vengeance, I know what to do.
...unless you're still in love with him.
Nangong Wugou, in order to make the Nangong family the best sword forging clan in the world,
not only did you collude with the Moon Sect, but you also massacred the Yin family.
And now you even attempt to get the Guo Se Sword.
In front of so many people today, what else do you want to say?
Xiao Yiqing,
I guess I underestimated you.
I never expected that... I would lose to you today, Yin Liuzhu.
Great.
In that case, we don't owe each other anymore.
You! Stay back!
Or there won't be anyone left in the Yin family.
Why are you doing this?
A life for a life, this is an unalterable principle.
Liuzhu, don't you have even the slightest sympathy for me?
When you were murdering the Yin family, did you ever show us mercy?
Well, great!
Today, I'll show you how the Nangong family is going to conquer the world.
Tell you what.
Half of my suicide warriors and disciples of other clans are hiding in the forest.
So, you were still taking another precaution against me!
This plan was made for you!
If the Snow Tower and the Nangong family had fought, I could've got you out of here.
But now it seems that the Snow Tower has got your back.
Fine.
If he dares to come after me, I'll take him by surprise.
What a leader of the pugilistic world!
I want the martial community to know that Xiao Yiqing is only a sickly man!
How is he fit to take care of martial affairs?
Attention!
Attack the Snow Tower!
Yes!
Tower Master, the trouble is cleared.
Nangong Wugou, you have no way out.
Surrender yourself!
It's you.
Yes, it's me.
If I hadn't let you capture me and goofed around with you,
I wouldn't have known how your troops were stationed in the mountain
and how to cooperate with Young Hero Gao to wipe out your suicide warriors
as well as the disciples of other clans.
The Tower Master had long seen through your plan.
Turn yourself in now!
No, it's impossible!
Don't you dare to lay a finger on me, or the Nangong family will never let you off!
For invading the Snow Tower, you sent your men here from the Nangong family.
But you neglected the fact that the Nangong family was left with insufficient men.
The Tower Master had sent men to disintegrate the Nangong family's power.
If anyone wishes to join the Snow Tower, the Tower Master will definitely let them in.
But those who were involved in the Yin family homicide, will all be sent to the government office.
Liuzhu, I won't blame you for conspiring with the Snow Tower,
but Xiao Yiqing wants to take this chance to destroy the Nangong Family.
You kept saying that you did it for justice.
But your approach is so ruthless!
Tell me! How is it different from murdering the Yin family?
You're only building your own prestige in the name of justice!
After hearing what you said, I feel so ashamed of myself.
Liuzhu, leave with me.
I won't hurt you.
Take what happened today as putting an end to our past vengeance.
Come with me.
Let's leave the pugilistic world behind, shall we?
All right.
Wuguo, for all the days we spent together,
were any of your feelings true to me?
I've never been unfaithful to you.
That day, I said I would take you away to lead a carefree life.
I meant it.
If you hadn't gone home, we would've gone far away already.
Sincere or not, it isn't important anymore.
You sent people to kill my parents, that's an indisputable fact!
I made this hairpin... so that I could wear it to marry you.
Today, we will end everything with it.
This hairpin is highly toxic.
You killed dozens of the Yin family's lives,
I was still too kind to let you die like this.
Why...
Save her. Hurry, save her!
I'll definitely take you away.
When the time comes, we can find a peaceful place and live a quiet life.
As long as I'm with you, I'll go anywhere.
Lady Yin!
Hurry, go and get Doctor Mo!
Everything has been settled.
Why are you still doing this?
Back then, when I told you about Qianmei, I was hoping you would give up suicide.
- But why did you still... - Thank you.
I've taken my revenge, so I could die without regret.
In this world,
only Tower Master Xiao and Lady Jing deserve the Guo Se Sword.
The Guo Se Sword...
should belong to the Snow Tower.
Lady Yin!
Nangong Wuguo turned out to be a crook full of lies!
We were tricked by him!
Right!
Right! Tower Master Xiao, we were all puzzled by Master Nangong.
We've offended Snow Tower. We deserve your punishment, Tower Master Xiao!
We deserve your punishment, Tower Master Xiao!
In that case, make a vow here.
From today onwards, uphold morality and justice.
Never to cause troubles in the martial community.
Taking the responsibility of eliminating the Moon Sect. Fighting to your very last breath.
Eliminate the Moon Sect, to our very last breath!
Then I won't keep you all here any longer.
You may return to where you belong.
Thank you, Tower Master!
My Lady. Tower Master.
The matter about the Nangong family is settled.
Those who were involved in the Yin family homicide have been sent to the government office.
Gao Huan reported that
the rest of the Nangong family confessed to it.
As for the Moon Sect, everyone except Gu Guang was caught.
Well done for both retrieving the community and clearing off those enemies.
Xiaotai said that you worked the undercover tactic with her, striking from within and without.
Yes. Thanks to Xiaotai's ingenuity, she came up with a good tactic.
Don't let her risk herself next time.
Once Gao Huan returns, ask him to see me.
You may leave now.
Yes.
Luckily, Gu Guang got here in time to hand you the Moon Spirit,
or else...
The credit indeed goes to Gu Guang.
But we also put up a good show, giving him the chance to go back.
We also took care of the Moon Sect informant for him.
As for me,
I believe that, even if I hadn't regained consciousness,
you'd still able to protect the Snow Tower.
Don't you say that!
How are you feeling now?
I'm fine. Don't worry.
I have done my best.
Lady Yin's hairpin was crafted with several snake venoms.
It's highly toxic.
There was nothing I could do.
Thank you, Doctor Mo.
Tower Master Xiao, it's time to take medicine.
Thank you, Lady Xue.
What's on your mind?
I never expected that you'd accept Lady Jing's arrangement, and be held hostage by Wugou.
If it had happened in the past, you would have rejected it angrily.
After all I've been through, I'm no longer who I used to be.
Now, Shu Jingrong has secured the Lady's position,
because she had gone through hardships in the world.
If I want to be like her, to be valued by the Snow Tower,
I can no longer live under their protection.
