[Episode 26]
Senior, are you alright?
I'm fine.
It's the west gate ahead of us.
I can only bring you here to this point. Please be careful.
Thank you very much.
Let's go.
Just one more step, we could be out of here.
Let's fight!
Why is Liang Lian here?
We've walked into a trap.
We've been acquainted for so many years, and you're leaving without saying goodbye?
Ye Zhen, you've come too.
It looks like the three of us won't be able to escape today.
This water prison
is situated against the floating mountain and surrounded by water.
If you can hand over the secret to the Lone Mountain Sword Trove,
I'll consider saving your corpse in whole.
Do you really think I'll care about keeping my body in whole?
Years ago you betrayed Liang Jing Meng and slaughtered our entire sect,
today I'll fight you to the death.
Senior.
Ye Zhen!
Meteor-Comet Tail Sword!
This is bad.
They are in trouble.
I've seen you before at the Wuton Falls Tavern.
Nine-Phantom Sword.
It belongs to Liang Jingmeng.
Why do you have it?
You have nothing to do with him.
Gongsun Qianxue.
You should have died with him ten years ago!
You should have been the one to die ten years ago!
You enabled the tyrant by betraying justice and friendship.
Today, I will avenge for Liang Jingmeng
all the grievances for Ba Mountain.
Ba Mountain Sword Academy's rebels
deserve to be eliminated.
Was Ba Mountain Sword Academy really rebellious?
You know it very well yourself.
Our chief was true to you and Yuan Wu.
Too bad his true heart was killed by your selfish greed.
You will eventually die by each other's hands.
My Queen, even if your beauty fades,
I will never leave or abandon you.
Too bad that you won't see that day.
Ye Celeng, are you rebelling too?
I, Ye Celeng, have never wavered in my loyalty to Great Heng.
You and Yuan Wu betrayed the loyal Ba Mountain compatriots first.
It's really sad that Great Heng is ruled
by people like you.
As long as I'm around, you will never be allowed to insult Ba Mountain disciples again!
The mountain wall is broken. Hurry and leave!
Stop them!
Put down your sword!
Superintendent Chen!
The Bureau of Heavenly Supervision and Holy Capital Surveillance have never seen eye to eye.
Today, this is a good opportunitiy
for you to kill me. It's good timing.
Put it down!
Chief Ye,
you are indeed a rebel.
I'm going to die today.
I have only one favor to ask.
The most important to remember about the Autumn Water Sword is
that you must be careful when it's the drought.
When it rains, you must be even more cautious.
Teacher, I have something to ask you to agree.
Speak.
When you teach others the sword moves, you always use other people as examples.
I hope that you will never tell anyone
what you've told me today.
Alright.
I promise you that I'll never tell anyone else.
Wait.
Your Master said that you were his favorite disciple.
He also said the Autumn Water Sword is strong when it meets water,
and weak when it meets the cold. But, to you,
the most important is to be careful when it's the drought.
When it rains, you must be even more cautious.
Offering life-source sword?
Ye Celeng!
Take care of my teacher!
Leave!
- Let's go! - Ye Celeng!
Let's go.
Let's go, Ye Celeng!
Chase them!
Yes.
I've fulfilled my wish.
I have no more regrets.
If there is a next life,
let's not meet again.
Little Aunt. Little Aunt.
What is this?
It will help heal your wounds.
Many thanks.
I am incapable to have let the rebels escape.
Your Majesty, please punish me.
Your Meteor-Comet Tail Sword
is really ferocious.
I could even feel it even deep inside the palace.
This ambush should have been successful.
Unfortunately Ye Celeng foiled us halfways.
She used the Bureau of Heavenly Supervision's sea boat to break through the floating mountain.
I have already sent people to capture them.
They suffered serious wounds, they couldn't have run far.
They suffered serious wounds, yet the Empress is unharmed.
I do not understand.
Your Meteor-Comet Tail Sword is superbly powerful. How could one Ye Celeng
let a rebel who's been imprisoned for ten years to escape?
I really cannot understand.
Is the Bureau of Heavenly Supervision's sea boat too strong,
or, you developed compassion for Ba Mountain Sword Academy?
Your Majesty's words have made me feel chilled.
It's been ten years.
Does Your Majesty not understand my regards?
If you don't have him in your heart, then you should have killed Lin Zhujiu on sight.
And not let him escape!
Think about my current state.
How can I feel safe in the throne?
Nine-Death Silkworm Divine Art's descendant has returned. Lie and Qian Kingdom keep on provoking us.
You are not afraid because you are in the Eighth Realm, but the people don't feel the same.
What I have done,
it has all been for the stability of the Great Heng. I have no other intentions.
I want Lin Zhujiu's life.
so that I can destroy the Lone Mountain Sword Trove
and solidify Great Heng's foundation.
You've worked up such a complicated plan,
is it because you are also interested in
the Lone Mountain Sword Trove?
Your Majesty does not believe me.
I can only show my loyalty with my death.
You are taking it too seriously.
I cannot bear to lose you.
You're awake. How are you feeling?
You helped heal me for an entire night.
Baili Suxue said that the chill of the Nine-Phantom Sword entered your body.
Even though I haven't completed the study of the Heavenly Replenishing Divine Art,
I can gradually control the Irreversible Fiery Yang.
It's the right antidote.
It's still early. Why don't you rest a little more?
Ding Ning.
Ye Celeng, she...
offered the life-source sword.
While you were unconscious, Bai Sahnshui already told us everything.
She offended the imperial court. I'm afraid it will be hard to escape.
Ye Zhen recognized my Nine-Phantom Sword
She also knows I'm the proprietress of Wutong Falls Tavern.
You definitely will be implicated.
Are you afraid?
Since you and I agreed to take revenge,
I have no fear.
Besides, I might not be implicated.
The logic goes this way, that's for sure.
But within this year, our movements have quickened.
We are stuck in danger at any moment.
My heart always dangling.
You're too nervous.
It will be fine if I alone die.
But you are the last person who should be involved in this revenge and the grievances.
At your age,
you couldn't have met Liang Jingmeng for long.
Compared to you, we are the ones who should revenge against them.
But it's so difficult to revenge.
Tonight, we don't know if Ye Celeng is dead or alive.
Tomorrow, we don't know how many more people will die.
Ding Ning, if you can't withstand it anymore. Give it up now
and there is still a future.
Too many people have paid too much.
I...
as Teacher's descendant,
bears the hope for everyone.
If I give up,
then their sacrifices
will be wasted.
Ding Ning.
After this battle,
my stronger wish is for you to live.
You haven't recovered from injuries. Rest some more.
I'll go visit the strategist.
I haven't been able to breathe so easily and freely for such a long time.
The Great Floating Water Prison is pitch dark inside.
Strategist Lin, you've endured for ten years.
I am in awe.
That place
is the real hell.
I was willing to endure
because I felt that Ba Mountain wasn't dead yet.
In the past, Jingmeng led us gallop across the battlefield.
It was such a satisfying feeling!
Even if someone betrayed over personal benefits,
I would still feel that, no matter what,
the spirit of loyalty and justice must prevail.
Even so,
the dead is long gone.
The ones that are gone
will never have the chance to meet again.
If Jingmeng knows in the netherworld,
he will feel comforted.
I wasn't talking about Liang Jingmeng.
Jingmeng has left for many years.
And now, you are willing to shelter us.
I thought you have already resolved your grievance against him.
That's right.
I have already canceled my old grievance against him.
What I was talking about just now
is because everything you've done, he's been able to see it.
Jingmeng?
He is alive?
It seems that Strategist Lin knows very little
about the Nine-Death Silkworm Divine Art .
Sec Master, what do you mean?
Sect Master.
Strategist.
Teacher.
Chief Ye... she...
What about her?
I'm going to die here today. There is only one favor to ask you.
Take care of my teacher! Leave!
Ye Celeng! Ye Celeng!
- Let's go! - Ye Celeng!
Why did Ye Celeng tell me
to take care of her teacher?
Could it be that Ding NIng knows something?
No.
I must ask him directly.
Miss Zhangsun, I'm bringing breakfast to you.
I am Xie Rou, friend of Ding Ning's.
Ding Ning isn't here. I am just about leaving to go to him.
Is that so? Then wait for me. I'll go with you.
If Ye Celeng knows that her teacher is still alive,
she would feel gratified.
You are...
Jingmeng?
Nine-Death Silkworm Divine Art saved his life.
Ling Zhujing greets... greets...
Strategist, you must not.
Ding Ning!
Why are you here?
I need to talk to you about something.
What is it about her? Why can't she talk here?
Who are you exactly?
Why are you asking me like this, Little Aunt?
You shouldn't call me Little Aunt.
Then what should I call you?
Call me Qianxue.
What?
Qianxue.
This is how you used to call me.
Little Aunt, are you mistaken?
Are you missing Teacher again?
You've said,
I shouldn't keep a sword if it doesn't suit me.
The person who isn't suitable
shouldn't stay here either.
I'm tired.
Little Aunt.
I sense that she really likes you.
But why don't you see it?
But with which identity can I face her?
In the past, I was the sinner to the Gongsun family.
Now, she has accepted Ding Ning
Why can't I continue using Ding Ning's identity?
The identity of Liang Jingmeng is a burden to me and to her.
Revenge isn't easy.
The path so far has already been difficult.
If we have to add this burden,
I can't see how we can keep going
on the path for the future.
Royal Father.
Royal Father, Fengwu has been conducting raids into our border.
I think we should start a war.
Royal Father, ever since the Deer Mountain Conference, the Xian, Li, and Mou kingdoms have been afraid of Heng.
The small Fengwu state is much weaker than Li kingdom. Why is it daring to trouble Heng?
Fengwu dares to cause trouble at the border because of Xian kingdom's secret support.
What do you think we should do to counter it?
I think we should stay calm and observe, and not get disturbed by small incidents.
Han, you support the war. How much force should Heng send to the battle?
Fengwu's elite force has less than 30,000.
Great Heng is famous for the Tiger Wolf Army.
No more than 50,000 can trample Fengwu.
50,000?
Do you know why Fengwu raided us this time?
After the Deer Mountain Conference, even the Xian, Muo, and Li kingdoms won't dare to offend Great Heng,
why would such a small Fengwu not know its limits?
I am dimwitted. Would Royal Father please give insight?
It's good to have ambition.
Before you want to establish merits next time,
do your homework better first.
Yes, Royal Father.
Yes.
You've finally come, Zhu Yuan.
Your Highest has waited long.
I've finished the affairs at Xian kingdom. [Zhu Yuan]
From this day on, I can serve you by your side.
Very good, rise.
Isn't this girl...
She is a palace maidservant serving Crown Prince Chu.
From now on, she will be loyal to us.
Zhu Yuan, why are you bringing me here?
This person is Bai Gongfeng of Bureau of Heavenly Supervision.
I don't understand.
Your Highness, your suggestion to attack Fengwu was rejected by His Majesty.
With the jailbreak from the water prison, the people feel restless now.
His Majesty must not be pleased.
This person is just the medicine that you can use to cure His Majesty's worries.
Royal Father probably won't care about a dead officer.
With this Fengwu machete, everyone will be different.
The Great Floating Water Prison was broken into, and Lin Zhujiu was absconded.
The rebels including Bai Shanshui were able to escape.
Tell me.
What are the civilians saying?
Your Majesty, even though there were anomalous signs in the sky,
but the Great Floating Water Prison has always been hidden,
the civilians really don't know anything about the prison.
Don't know anything!
Or, is it pretending all's well?
Forget it.
It's already happened, and the people must feel restless.
You tell me, is there a good solution?
Royal Father, I have a plan.
- Speak. - I think the people are unhappy since the incident already happened.
It should be like treating flood. It's best to channel the flows than blocking.
How do you channel the flows?
Attack Fengwu to shift the blame.
No. We've had many wars. Taxes and drafts have already made the people suffer under hardships.
Creating a war without cause will only made the people feel even more turbulence.
After Deer Mountain, all the other nations know that our nation is strong and prosperous.
Great Heng is rising above all the other nations.
But, we must not dwell in self satisfaction, or the people will slouch in comfort and the soldiers will enjoy peace.
Once an enemy attacks us, we will suffer from front and the back.
Royal Father, wars will exhaust the people and waste resources. This is not good for the nation.
Wars can also be used to prepare for more wars and raise the nation's strength.
Fengwu is just a small state. Besides, the small skirmishes at the border
don't deserve an all out war.
Royal Father,
the corpse of Bai Gongfeng of the Bureau of Heavenly Supervision was recently discovered in Wutong Alley.
He was slaughtered by Fengwu's machete.
Royal Father, Fengwu didn't just raid the border,
it has obviously already sneaked into Fengming City and killing a court officer.
Great Heng must not tolerate this.
Hear my decree.
Prince Han is appointed the Commanding General of the Conquering Army.
Prince Chu is the Vanguard Commander.
Prepare immediately to attack Fengwu.
I accept the decree. I shall not disappoint you in the mission
to trample Fengwu and stop the foreign aggression.
I accept the decree.
At the Great Hall today, the machete on that corpse,
did you push it in?
Royal Father, I only want to help you.
Is that so?
Your behavior at the Great Hall today...
was very good.
Thank you, Royal Father.
You can leave now.
I'll take my leave.
When will Huang Zhenwei be here?
Your Majesty, he should arrive in Fengming very soon.
Huang Zhenwei is thoughtful and thorough.
For many years, he has been working on missions for Your Majesty in faraway lands.
Now he'll return to become the Chief of Bureau of Heavenly Supervision.
He is really the perfect choice.
He's been away from Fengming so many years.
From time to time, he's sent back news about the Lone Mountain Sword Trove. He is back at the right time with the water prison incident.
Before he starts on his new job, you must bring him to see me.
Yes.
