Sword of Coming!

Now that the Heavenly Tao is going to suppress this world

Come what may.

I, Qi Jingchun, alone

will bear this catastrophe on behalf of Small Town's common people.

How can a mere Confucian scholar like you

shake the foundations of the three religions?

You have spring breeze.

While I have

a Flying Sword Art of Rain!

Chen Pingan!

The Great Tao is right at your feet.

Go.

Again!

Senior.

Are you watching this young man?

The world has me, Qi Jingchun.

The world is happy.

I am also happy.

Bidding Farewell With the Sword

I, Ruan Qiong, as the new saint here.

Within the next sixty years of control

any transgressor

will be killed without mercy.

Isn't this the Dragon-Slaying Platform?

Once Miss Ning's sword is forged, it will be

better for you to be her grinding stone

than to follow me.

Li Baoping!

Why are you calling me?

I want to discuss something with you.

Then you better talk quickly.

The branch you're carrying

did you pick it up from the old scholar tree?

Yes.

There are a lot of people picking up branches over there.

I'm not strong enough.

I can only carry something this size.

If I don't move faster

and make more trips

they will be all snatched away by others

You live on Fortune and Wealth street.

which is too far from the old scholar tree.

If you trust me

you can put the branches

at my house first.

I guess I can do that...

But surely you are not letting me take advantage of you for nothing, right?

What help do you need from me?

Let me make it clear first

I can't carry branches that are too big.

It's very heavy.

I just wanted you to look near that tree.

If there are any green scholar leaves

just collect them for me.

That's it?

Yes. Just this one thing.

This is the key to my house.

I remember your wall is not that tall.

I can throw the branch in there with a little bit of footwork.

There's no need to open the door.

All right, then, you go ahead.

I've heard that when the tree falls, the macaques will scatter.

Now I see the tree falling down and becoming firewood.

Even after thousands of years

humans

still have this moral character.

T/N: Dexing (德行) is virtue or moral character. It also be used as a sarcastic remark to express contempt for someone's appearance, manners, behavior, style, etc.

Qi Jingchun.

Will you regret this?

Great Immortal.

What are your orders?

Right now, there is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

It will depend on whether you dare to fight for it.

Your offering of incense has been cut off by Covered Bridge.

But as long as you swim under the bridge.

You will transform from a river grandmother

to a river god.

The wooden corridor on the bridge collapsed last night.

I wanted to get closer to see what was going on

but as soon as I got closer

it was like I was falling into a frying pan.

The pain was unbearable.

Will you continue to lie in the mud

or will you become a river god?

It all comes down to one move.

T/N: An idiom which means that the success or failure of an action or an event depends on a single move or decision.

Senior, you have great divine powers.

You can actually appoint a river god.

Most importantly

you are able to do this without disturbing the Heavenly Tao.

River grandmother, river god.

Only a word of difference

but a world of difference.

You don't understand this?

It's already very shocking.

Creating a small path off the head of a path that's already a dead-end.

This junior cannot help

but be impressed by such handiwork.

Kid.

You know my identity?

The mountain master did not inform in advance.

However

I can somewhat make a guess.

Go! Go! Go

If you don't agree, you might as well keep quiet.

About him?

He has cultivated divine powers but didn't use it.

Only relying on two Natal Characters to resist the Heavenly Tao.

Old Mister Yang.

What do you think Teacher Qi's

intentions were?

If he wanted to establish destiny for the people

T/N: Author borrowed a line from 'The Four Sentences of Hengqu', a famous saying by Zhang Zai, a great scholar during the Northern Song Dynasty. The saying is 'Establish a heart for Heaven and Earth, establish a destiny for the people, inherit the lost knowledge of the past sages, and create peace for all generations'. This is rather significant as he reflects the goal of Qi Jingchun.

then it would be such a great loss.

He is Qi Jingchun.

The mountain master of Cliff Academy.

The literary saints' favorite disciple.

One life in exchange for the next life of six thousand ordinary mortals.

Was it worth it?

I don't think it was worth it.

If it were me instead

I would absolutely not do it.

Just forget it.

For the sake of your heartfelt words

let's just have a casual chat.

It is exactly

what this junior has been seeking.

Was it your scheme that pushed Qi Jingchung into this situation

where he had no choice but to die?

This scheme was planned for at least eighty years.

I am no more than 30 years old.

So your words aren't right.

That's because you just so happen to come get the Object of Charms.

T/N: "Ya sheng" objects can be charms, talismans, amulets or any objects that ward off evil spirits. Sometimes they considered as "lucky charms". "Ya sheng" means to overcome by warding off evil spirits, which refers to the use of spells, magic, curses or prayers to suppress, subdue or defeat people, objects or demons.

And so happened to encounter this tragedy.

It is yellow mud falls into the crotch.

T/N: This is a folk idiom, which means that if the time, place and people happens to be at the right moment, a false thing will become true, so it becomes hard to argue. This comes from the fact that yellow mud is very similar to the color of feces, and when it is stained in the crotch of the pants, and it's hard to tell whether it's mud or feces.

Even if it is not feces it is still feces.

Affairs of the world are impermanent.

There are no coincidences in the world.

Junior has a special liking for the Cloud Parting Mountain.

I hope to use it for the new academy's location.

Junior is a guest.

Whether it's from an emotional or rational point of view, I should still greet Old Senior Yang.

As long as Senior doesn't give his approval

construction of

the academy won't start.

If one day Senior believes this is possible

just send a message

to Cui Minghuang

of Observation Lake Academy.

Thank you Senior.

Qi Jingchun.

That night you sat at Covered Bridge all night.

What did you say and do?

You scholars...

T/N: The use of the word scholar also refers to educated people and people who read and write.

There's not one that make others not worry about.

T/N: When he uses this phrase, it is an indication of just a little affection, a little bit of anger and a little bit of venting. It is like he is asking, why do you scholars make me worry?

As long as Great Li pleases me

once the sixty years period is over

I'll naturally open my own sect here.

Master Ruan is helping Great Li's

state of prosperity to flourish.

Master Ruan can rest assured

Except for the sixty one mountains

of Cloud Parting Mountain range.

Master Ruan can choose any of three mountains

as the foundation of your sect.

I can give Master Ruan first

T/N: He uses the honorific benguan (本官) on himself which indicates that he is a government official.

the new and old maps of the mountains in the Precious Pearl Grotto Heaven.

I can also accompany Master Ruan to personally explore and inspect them.

At that time

Master Ruan can make the final decision.

How about it?

Leave the map here first.

The matter of occupying the mountain

is not urgent.

However, apart from Cloud Parting Mountain

no other mountain catches my eye.

Then

I will wait for Master Ruan's decision.

Miss Ning.

Miss Ning received a flying sword message from Inverted Mountain last night.

She left before dawn.

She asked me to tell you

she needs to borrow the scabbard she gave you for a while first.

She will return it to you later.

It turns out that Miss Ning went to Mud Bottle Alley to look for me that night.

To say goodbye to me.

You will definitely meet her again

once her business is finished.

That scholar called Qi Jingchun

said he was disappointed with the world.

So

what about you?

Wait... Please wait!

Chen Pingan!

Chen Pingan!

I forgot to tell you just then.

My father said that you should just work at the shop without worries during this period.

You may be needed to help out with forging iron in the future.

Please thank Master Ruan for me.

What is it?

I feel like there is something dirty in the water.

See?

There's nothing there.

You just have to swim under the bridge.

You will transform from a river grandmother

to a river god.

It was no big deal.

My eyes.

Don't get ahead of yourself.

T/N: He uses the idiom, give an inch, take a foot.

Remember not to look up

when you pass the covered bridge next time.

I won't dare anymore.

Just go downstream.

Don't be too unrestrained when passing by the blacksmith shop.

However you can make this river produce water essence

which is good for sword forging.

Master Ruan shouldn't make things difficult for you.

I shall obey

the instructions of Great Immortal.

That's right, Miss Ruan.

Can I ask you about two words?

You...

write it down first.

If I had known earlier, I would have studied properly.

Now I'm going to embarrass myself.

It's over. It's over.

It's actually about martial arts.

I'm good at this.

Divine.

Court.

Together they form the name of an acupuncture point.

Shenting point.

T/N: Shenting point is located half a thumb width directly above the mid line of the anterior hairline.

There are 365 large and small acupoints in our body.

They are all treasures like mountains of gold and silver.

Keep chatting.

I'll study as well.

I'm not a bad person.

I came to Small Town with the new county magistrate, Wu Yuan

Keep chatting.

I'll just listen.

Do you think that I will suddenly

become an immortal after listening?

These two words

reads Danzhong.

Danzhong?

Young lady.

Your handwriting is

really not good.

One look and it looks like you haven’t put in any effort.

Young lady.

Why don't you tell us where the danzhong acupoint is located?

Is it because it is hard to show it to him?

Young lady, if you find it embarrassing.

I can help.

I think you must have misunderstood.

What I mean is

I'll show him where the acupoint is on my body.

I'm not showing him where the acupoint is on your body.

In any case

the location of the acupoint on your body is hard to find even for a god.

T/N: Danzhong also called shangzhong (Middle of the Chest) is located on the chest, at the midpoint between the nipples.

Aren't I asking for trouble?

Young lady!

Why are you trying to beat me?

Again?

Stop running!

Young lady, I was wrong!

Stop right there!

And the weilu acupoint.

T/N: Weilu is also known as the changqiang (Long and Rigid) or weichang acupoint. It is located midway between the tip of the coccyx and the anus.

The three gates on the back of the Jiaji and Yuzhen!

T/N: Jiaji is located on both sides of the spinous column. Yuzhen (Jade Pillow) is located at the back of the head.

Young lady, how did you miss those as well?

Historical people said

Half the work is done at the back gate!

Miss Ruan!

Shrinking and opening up is the right thing to do!

You can see that it's important!

T/N: He is using acupoints to imply the action of having sex. The back, lying down, the acupoint which is also called jade pillow, the gate, shrinking and opening. You get the idea...

Stop right there!

Master Ruan’s rules are most important

during the next sixty years in Small Town.

Great Li will stand by Master Ruan's side

no matter what Master Ruan does.

To get what it deserves, a secular dynasty would

build a Flourishing Literary Pavilion and a Martial Saint Temple.

T/N: Wenchang Pavilion (Flourishing Literary) and Wusheng (Martial Saint) Temple are actual buildings in China.

What are your plans for conferring the

title of True God of Mountains and Rivers

of Small Town?

At present, Great Li's Imperial Astronomical Observatory has selected two places.

They are Porcelain Mountain and Tomb of the Immortals.

The people who will perform the sacrifice

are the two people who walked out of Small Town that year.

It so happens, one's from the literary side and the other is from the martial side.

It is considered a great

contribution to my Great Li.

Master Ruan

What do you think?

Those two are quite suitable.

But the matter of location...

Have you asked Old Mister Yang what he thinks?

Master Ruan.

dare I ask who Old Mister Yang is?

Your State Teacher, Xiu Hu didn't even tell you this

yet he isn't worried about appointing you as an official?

T/N: He uses the term "parent official". It was a respectful title used by the common people in ancient China to refer to the officials of the state and county. Since the emperor is the father of the people, court officials were representative of the emperor as such they were supposed to be the "parent officials", however it is sometimes used as a sarcasm due to the corrupt nature of some officials.

Tell me honestly.

Were you demoted and sent to this place because of your failure in the government?

If that's the case

then I'm gonna go back on what I said before.

What High Immortal said is absolutely true.

That's right, madam.

I heard that the new saint Ruan Qiong established a rule

that anyone who crosses the border within sixty years will be killed without mercy.

We're not mere mortals.

In any case

this is the Great Li's territory now.

Does he dare to be presumptuous?

Did you think just because Qi Jingchun has died

you can be lawless and disregard the principles of Heaven?

Even if you hide outside the border

and covet the blessed land of the Precious Pearl.

Whenever I, Ruan Qiong, am in a bad mood

I will still smash your heads.

The new saint has quite a bad temper.

This old man won't cross the line.

I'm just going to take a look.

What can he do to me?

Master Ruan!

Le’s talk it over!

Remember my rules.

This will apply

for the next sixty years.

Qi Jingchun.

If you were half as unreasonable as I am

would you die in such a miserable way?

I was wondering why the plump young lady has such a hot temper.

It turns out that she takes after her father.

Chen Pingan.

I'll give you this.

You hiding it beforehand

is different from me giving it to you afterwards.

Don't forget.

You must do what you promised to others.

Why do you remind me so much of Teacher Qi?

I'm not going to like you anymore.

I'll help you move the scholar branches home.

Then I can like you a little longer.

Is it going to rain?

Mother!

Look!

So many people!

I felt

I should say goodbye to you.

So I came.

Miss Ning.

This item is most suitable for you to use.

It turns out that Miss Ning

is also an immortal.

This candied haws is so expensive.

It doesn’t seem that delicious anymore.

Acupoints Cultivators absorb the spiritual energy of the place and take it into themselves by opening and utilizing the acupoints around the body to improve their own realm. In addition to enhancing their strength they can also store their own Natal Treasure (life saving treasure) and nourish a powerful sword flying

Next episode preview

At this time, gold essence and copper coins are very valuable.

So it is not an exaggeration to say that you are rich enough to rival a country.

Chen Pingan!

We are going to study in a very far place.

Then you must take good care of yourself.

Fire dragon extinguishes fire!

A mere little river grandmother

dare you act arrogantly in front of me?

My father killed six true river gods in a row back then.

You never heard of it before?

What is the young man's identity

that is by the side of the new supervisor, Wu Yuan?

You call out to someone before entering the house.

You pray to the gods before entering the temple.

I greet Master Ruan first and

and greet Old Man Yang.

You can't find fault with my manners.

Your demeanor is not little.

Don't be a showman.

How about we three have a mixed fight?

Destroy this area within a thousand miles.

Sword of Coming!
