[Episode 20]

Ye,

do you still remember what I said

before we embarked on this journey?

Which sentence exactly?

Observe every strike I make carefully,

except for the last strike.

Otherwise,

it'd all go to waste.

I don't want to miss that strike.

My silly disciple.

Amid the trickling rain
and ethereal fog,

here I come treading on water.

[Yan Lingxia,
The Blade Deity of Nanjue]

Rain Demon.

You're here after all.

Chunshui,

what kind of person

is the Rain Demon like?

Is he going

to lead Yun astray?

During our journey,

I've heard a bunch
of martial artists talking about

how he's traveling to Nanjue with Yun.

The Rain Demon

had a nickname when he was young,

the Rain Maniac,

because he was maniacal and arrogant.

During his younger days
roaming the martial arts world,

he had defeated many people

who were actually stronger than him,

simply because he was a maniac.

Unfortunately,

he would eventually
encounter Li Changsheng.

And what kind of person
was Li Changsheng like?

He's far more maniacal and arrogant
than the Rain Demon was.

Can you stop flattering yourself

in such an obnoxiously indirect way?

You rascal.

Am I flattering myself?

I'm flattering Li Changsheng.

As I said,

in this life, I want to be

a genteel scholar,

an elegant young man.

I shall steer clear of worldly affairs

and I shall only
appreciate beautiful ladies.

You're over 180 years old,

and you're thinking
of appreciating beautiful ladies?

You're too old to do that.

Chunshui.

The Rain Demon

used to be a handsome man.

But when he was mastering
the Demon Deity Sword Techniques,

something happened,

and he turned into a beautiful woman.

See?

Unlike you,

he doesn't care much
about romantic affairs.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have
traveled all the way

to kill Yan Lingxia.

Chunshui.

What's the deal about Yan Lingxia?

Beautiful.

She's beautiful.

You really don't care if it's too old
to appreciate beautiful ladies.

Five li from here

is a town

called Qianyue Town.

We'll spend the night there.

Rain Demon,

we shouldn't have met today.

What a nag.

Master, do you think

the Rain Demon

is any match for Yan Lingxia?

I can't say for certain.

I thought you knew everything.

What are you uncertain about?

If he's doing this for himself,

I guess they'd probably

end the fight in a draw.

But, if he's doing this
for someone else...

You mean for Yun?

The Rain Demon

may be called a demon,

but to me,

compared to most people, he's...

He's what?

Kinder than anyone else.

I have lost,

but you're about to die.

You shouldn't have gone all out

just to pursue a title

as useless
as the top martial artist of Nanjue.

I have never sought for such a title,

even if the whole world
believes otherwise.

Let them believe what they want, then.

Ye.

I told you not to watch my last strike,

but...

You saw it, didn't you?

Master.

Ye,

don't be sad.

Don't avenge me either.

I have been practicing
the demonic art for so many years,

and my health

has already almost depleted.

Even if I don't die today,

I'd have less than six months to live.

Throughout this journey,

I have launched 13 strikes.

Every strike

has been a lesson for you.

As your master...

this is

all I can do for you.

Ye.

I didn't want you
to see the final strike

because I hoped you wouldn't

follow in my footsteps.

But...

Since you saw it,

you will have to bear

the legacy of my sword fighting.

I have left you a letter.

There's an address on it.

Head to the address.

Master.

I have left a present for you.

Thank you, Master.

There's an old geezer in the north

that I have never been able to defeat.

Make sure you train hard

and defeat his disciple.

I will remember that.

I shall not

disappoint you.

Farewell,

Ye.

No one knows where I, the Rain Demon,

comes from.

I also do not wish for anyone to know

where my final resting spot is.

Master!

Chunshui,

what are you looking?

I can sense

an old friend departing somewhere.

Not bad.

You can already take three hits from me.

Sikong Changfeng, let's talk.

Sure.

All this time,

I've been meaning to ask you this.

Baili Dongjun
is from the Marquis's Mansion

and he has a noble status.

His father is the Marquis's son

and his mother is
the young lady of the Wen Family.

Right now, he's also

a disciple of Li Changsheng,
the top martial artist.

He's lucky to have a good life,

but you

have been wandering since young,

without a place to call home.

Usually,

a rich kid like him

would be someone that you'd detest,

but why are you friends with him?

When I met him,

I didn't even know

he was from the Marquis's Mansion.

Back then, all I thought was

that we happened to meet by chance,

and it's good to travel
around the martial arts world

together.

Even after

I knew that he's from
the Marquis's Mansion,

I realized

that even someone
from the Marquis's Mansion

could be like him.

Like how?

I have seen

many people from noble families.

Most of them

may look decent outside,

but they have a dirty heart.

But Baili Dongjun is different.

His heart is as pure

as a youth's.

Nice answer.

Moreover,

I think that both of us

are of the same kind.

He's lucky to have a good life while I'm
lucky to not get killed easily.

He and I

will reach our end goals eventually.

That's a marvelous answer.

We've been training for several days

and you've probably heard some rumors

that I might take you in as my disciple.

Wait, sir.

Those are just rumors.

I'm already glad that you're willing

to give me a few pointers.

I wouldn't dare to dream

of becoming your disciple.

I will not take you in as my disciple.

Because I'm not qualified.

There's someone

far more formidable than me

who wants to take you in
as his disciple,

but it's not the right time yet.

That day will come soon, though.

He's also waiting

to meet you again
somewhere in this martial arts world.

Meet me again?

Life is like a dream.

Meetings and partings come and go.

Are you leaving already, Mr. Xie?

As we have met, so must we part.

I have finished reading,

so I have to go.

Sikong,

I hope we can also

meet again somewhere.

Martial Uncle.

Sir,

I think it's also time for me to go.

When are you leaving?

Right now, then.

You're so eager to leave, too?

Since I feel like venturing now,
why not?

It's a big world outside.

May we meet again, sir.

I'm off!

This martial arts world remains the same

because of these youths

that continue to come
generation after generation.

We're here.

This is it.

[Qianyue Smithy]

Chunshui.

Have you been here before?

What do you need? A hoe, a spade

or a plough?

A blade.

A good one.

Who are you?

An old friend.

What's your name?

Nangong Chunshui.

Your surname isn't Li?

You look exactly the same

as that man when he was young.

You're not his son?

Why?

Does he look like

a playboy to you?

Of course.

That pompous brat.

I wouldn't be surprised

if he's got a bunch of grandchildren.

Pompous brat.

Hush.

That's not nice of you

to describe an old friend like that.

Well, don't just stand there.

Come in and we'll talk.

So,

who are you?

I'm Baili Dongjun,

a disciple of Mr. Li from the Academy.

I'm Yin Luoxia,

Mr. Liu Yue's disciple.

Liu Yue's disciple?

No wonder you look so pretty.

As for you,

you look like

a mediocre martial artist,

but you have a nice sword.

So we've got

two random boys

and a lass in the Sturdy Phase.

How bold is he

to let you guys

approach me like this?

I wonder how powerful

you are

to look down on those
in the Sturdy Phase?

I'm not looking down
on those in the Sturdy Phase.

I'm just looking down

on you.

That's because

I'm also in the Sturdy Phase.

Kid,

if you want to provoke me,

[Luo Sheng, The Military Deity]
try again in another 30 years.

You're the one who's provoking me.

Dongjun,

this is the man I told you about.

He's one of the top three

weapon makers,

Luo Sheng, the Military Deity.

Sir.

Those herbs are exceptionally rare.

Do keep them properly.

Also, please send

my master's regards to Mr. Xin.

Rest assured.

These herbs

concern

both the patient from the Mu Family

and my life.

Thank you, sir.

I'm off.

Safe journeys.

[Qiulu Apothecary]

Check these.

Do come again.

[Baihua Pleasure House]
I love the new score

that you're playing!

Come on!

Take this.

How long has it been
since you last came?

Come often.

We've missed you.

Should I see her?

My brother

could play this score as well.

I mistook you for him.

Actually,

I'd love to have a little sister.

You...

How dare you tease me time and again?

You may meet many people
throughout your life,

but only befriend a few.

I believe that true friends do exist.

Your guqin and my leaf

resonated together.

I will be back.

He's gone?

Linglong,

Mr. Sikong is back.

Miss.

He... He's back again.

[Baihua Pleasure House]

Mr. Sikong.

It's been a while.

What brought you here?

I...

Actually, I have been

thinking about you all this time,

but

I dared not bother you.

Then,

why do you come today?

I'm leaving Tianqi soon.

I'm here to bid you farewell.

Farewell?

We met by chance, after all.

You didn't have to come

to bid me farewell.

You flatter me.

I know

that to you,

I'm just

a nobody.

But to me,

you are special.

I have to leave now,

but I will be back

when I have truly

mastered spear techniques

and when I can truly

protect you.

Oh my.

How silly and naive of him.

Cut to the chase.

So, why are you here?

I'm sure Li Changsheng

is about to give me

a problematic task.

Mr. Li wants you

to forge a nice blade

for this young man here.

I won't.

I've just received

an important order,

and I've got no time for him.

How important is it?

Why don't you take a look

at what Mr. Li is offering you?

Well...

It's hers.

Mr. Li searched for it for a long time.

Kid,

you already have
a Celestial Level Sword,

and you still came here

to get a blade from me?

Looks like Li Changsheng

is ready to teach you

his ultimate moves.

What ultimate moves?

The Double-Handed Blade-Sword Technique.

That's right.

His Double-Handed Blade-Sword Technique

is forceful

yet elegant.

A perfect balance of light and heavy,

and it was invincible.

I see that your sword

is on the lighter side,

so I'll give you

a heavier blade.

Looks like Mr. Luo

has some leftover stock.

A few years ago,

someone gave me

a piece of meteoric ore.

I forged a sword and a blade with it.

That sword is meant

for the order I mentioned earlier.

As for the blade,

it needs to go
through the final forging stage

for another three days.

The one who placed that order

must be as important as Mr. Li.

And more decent, to add.

At least

that person came here

with real money,

instead of offering me

a piece of stone

for a mythical weapon

like that person did.

Remember,

don't disturb me

for the next three days.

Nice blade.

What's its name?

Unlike those fellows

from Swordheart Grave,

I disassociate myself

from the weapon

as soon as it is made.

Whatever name it is,

it's up to the owner to decide.

It's been so long,

and you still won't pass up a chance

to poke fun at Li Suwang
from Swordheart Grave.

I'm not.

I just don't like

his pretentious and genteel personality.

A sword is a sword.

What's the point of giving names

like that

"Listen to the Rain and Watch the Snow"

or "Smell the Wind
and Look at the Flowers".

Phooey!

How disgusting.

Fine,

since my sword is called Dustless,

I'll call my blade...

Maybe...

Unsullied by the dust
of the mortal world,

a pure heart lies beneath the cinders.

Why don't you call it Cinderless?

Alright, we'll call it Cinderless.

Good.

Now that you have a blade,

as Mr. Li said,

you can stop practicing

the 19 Embroidery Sword Techniques.

You can start practicing
the blade techniques.

What technique should I practice?

Take this.

[Five-Tiger Cliff Blade Technique]
Five-Tiger Cliff Blade Technique?

But, Mas...

But, Chunshui,

I've seen this technique before.

Even the guards at my home know this.

Don't underestimate this technique.

I had a friend

who used this...

He used this technique

and became famous, right?

You're making stories up again.

I don't believe you.

You can believe him

because the friend he was talking about

is me.

If you're not convinced,

why don't we have a spar?

Sure.

You believe me now, don't you?

You can use ordinary weapons

and ordinary techniques,

but the person who wields the weapon

must be more than ordinary.

Mr. Luo's
Five-Tiger Cliff Blade Technique

is actually weaker than Xiao Yi's

19 Embroidery Sword Techniques.

I understand.

I will train harder.

Good to see you being so humble.

Yun... Yun?

Yunyun?

Should I call you

Dongdongjun?

What brings you here?

To take my sword.

Is this

where Mr. Luo lives?

Who are you?

I'm Ye Dingzhi.

I have come to collect a sword
as my master's command

It's you.

Come, have a seat.

The sword is ready.

Your master has already paid for it,

so you can collect it anytime.

Thank you, Mr. Luo.

How is your master

doing lately?

Who are you?

I'm Nangong Chunshui.

Mr. Li has entrusted me

to bring Baili Dongjun here

to collect a blade.

Dongjun is here too?

He got wiped out

by Mr. Luo's
Five-Tiger Cliff Blade Technique,

and he's resting in there.

I'll see him tomorrow, then.

You haven't answered my question.

My master...

He has left.

Young man, you knew my master?

I guess

he was a good friend.

So you're the owner

of that sword.

What a coincidence.

What's its name?

And what's your blade's name?

It's called Cinderless.

I named it.

Then, I'll call my sword

Pavilion Moon.

Pavilion Moon?

Nice name.

Now, we have

matching weapons.

Alright, now that you're done talking,

it's time for us to leave.

Yun, want to join us?

I need to return to Nanjue

to handle my master's affairs.

I can tag along for a while, though.

Why?

Are you leaving?

Yes,

or else we won't make it in time.

Make it in time?

Make what in time?

Are we rushing

to go somewhere?

Why do I feel like you're not

rushing anywhere all this time?

We're not heading there directly.

We're stopping by somewhere

and it might take some of our time.

Where?

The Tang Sect.

Why are you going to the Tang Sect?

I've heard there's
a Poison Convention there,

so we're going to check it out.

I guess we're not

going to see each other again
in this lifetime.

Use your weapons

to their fullest.

Hopefully, one day,

I can hear legends of them

in this small town.

I wonder

where that kid is now.

When we received that letter
from the Ninth Prince,

I thought even the Academy

had enough of that troublemaker,

and had expelled him.

That made me happy for a while.

Our son

may be naughty on the surface,

but it's good for him

to follow Mr. Li

and travel around the world.

Well,

do you think
they'll pass by Qiandong City?

Probably not.

Mr. Li avoids trouble like the plague,

and meeting

the famous Marquis of Zhenxi

is the biggest trouble he could have.

I know you miss him,

but at his age,

he should be

broadening his horizons.

Don't you miss him?

No, I don't.

Why would I miss that rascal?

Chengfeng.

I keep worrying

about something.

I'm afraid that Dongjun...

Don't worry.

Mr. Li is with him.

Nothing would happen to Dongjun.

If you're still worried...

My brother will become

the next head of the Wen Family,

so stop torturing him.

That depends on

what he perceives

as true torture.

Planning to head out for fun again?

I have to stay at home
and concoct poisons every day.

It's so boring!

We've got so many poisons.

It's enough to poison
half of Beili's residents.

Two days ago,

we received

an invitation from the Tang Sect.

You mean

the Poison Convention?

That's right.

Everyone knows

that the Wen Family's poison
is the best in the world,

but the Tang Sect is now claiming
to have the best poisons.

I'm afraid they're planning
to compete with us.

Now that they're inviting us

to the Poison Convention,

we'd better not lose.

Is Father

really allowing us
to attend that convention this time?

He said

that we don't even need to compete.

For centuries,

if we claim to be the second best,

no one would dare
to claim that they're the best.

However,

we're not afraid
of having a competition.

If anyone tries to outshine us,

we'll just poison them.

Awesome!

I've always wanted

to show Tang Linghuang
from the Tang Sect

who's better at using poisons!

When do we depart?

Tomorrow.

I said tomorrow!

Go.

To my disciple, Changfeng,

I am going to the Tang Sect.

Let's meet there.

The Tang Sect?

Mr. Luo

may have a fiery temper,

but he's quite a nice person.

Before we left, he gave me

the liquor he brewed himself.

How does it taste?

Rough but strong.

I can feel the passion in him.

He's actually

a pretty loyal guy,

but he's not good
at expressing himself.

Otherwise, he wouldn't
have lost the chance

to be with that wild lass.

That wild lass?

You mean the owner of the jade pendant?

Yes.

Later, she married

Li Suwang from Swordheart Grave,

and then

they had a baby girl.

You know her.

Li Xinyue.

Second Senior's mother-in-law?

But she's quite old now.

Look at you,

and you're calling her a lass?

She will always be a lass.

She was just 25 years old when she died.

That's how old a lass should be.

She's gone?

Luo Sheng has always blamed himself

for her death.

But actually

it had nothing to do with him.

Later, he adopted a new identity

and moved to this town.

He swore he would never

get involved
in the martial arts world again.

So Mr. Luo

created a mental cage

and locked himself inside.

Who wouldn't do that?

To me,

I'm caged between Heaven and Earth.

I can never grow old

or die.

It sounds interesting,

but sometimes,

it can be pretty boring.

Chunshui.

You're getting too full of yourself.

Wen Buping.
[*Lit: steady pace]

Just like your name,

you sure have a steady pace.

I'm about to fall asleep
in this carriage!

Can't you go faster?

What can I do?

The Wen Family

is different from other sects.

If the other sects arrived first,

the Tang Sect would welcome them
with open arms

and do the honors.

But if we arrived first,

they'd be wary of us,

and vice versa.

Don't worry.

I did my calculations.

It's best if we arrive

in the last minute.

Fine.

You're just too cautious.

You're reckless and I'm mild.

This is

how our family gets better.

What's wrong now?

We're not even moving now?

Your messenger is back.

Well?

Have you found them?

We've found Young Master Dongjun,

but Mr. Li is nowhere to be seen.

Young Master is traveling

with two young men

and a young lady.

A young lady...

Mr. Li isn't with him?

Where are they going, then?

It looked like
they were heading to Jin City too.

The Tang Sect?

They're going to the Tang Sect too?

I have a bad feeling about this.

Did Dongjun

get separated from Mr. Li

and get abducted by those three...

I need to go first.

Enjoy your slow ride!

Dongjun.

Who exactly is

Chunshui?

You can think of me

as Li Changsheng's reincarnation.

I don't know
whether humans do reincarnate,

but I know

they just don't reincarnate

as adults.

Still,

the way you bluff and exaggerate

does resemble him.

Right, Yun.

He is Mr. Li.

What?

You might just

become my disciple.

Yeah.

Something happened that night.

You can take him as your master today.

I went to Tianqi

and took the Academy examinations

just to see

what my master's lifelong rival

looked like.

I've never thought

of becoming your disciple.

And now,

this is even more impossible.

When it comes to apprenticeship,

perhaps your master
was better than I am.

A thought just came to me.

What is it?

The martial arts world

is supposed to be dead.

But as we martial artists

fill it with stories,

the world has come alive.

Cheers!

Cheers!
