[A Forbidden Marriage]

[Episode 4]

Yang Qing?

Well, well, Yang Qing.

A disciple from a respectable sect, huh?

You told me you were going to Shuntian City.

Good thing I checked with the innkeeper.

Yang Qing, Yang Qing,

this candied hawthorn is really delicious.

Want a bite?

Miss Yang, please stop following me.

Who says I'm following you?

I...

Qinglai City is huge.

We just happened to run into each other.

Do you understand?

Miss Yang,

there's no way

we can be together.

What do you mean "no way?"

Is it because of that woman?

How could a dignified elder of Yunmen

be so blind?

Senior, you went to such lengths

to protect the Saintess of Shengyue Sect.

Too bad she doesn't appreciate it.

Junior, since when did you become so nosy?

Besides,

who said she's the Saintess of Shengyue Sect?

She grew up in Yangliu Town.

She has nothing to do with Shengyue Sect.

Your mind is unsettled,

Senior.

Mr. Yang,

why is Miss Yang here?

Didn't we tell her we were going to Shuntian City?

How did she end up in Qinglai City?

Mr. Yang, how about I drive her away?

Let her be.

Lately, I haven't been able to

use my martial arts properly.

Could Senior Bai have been right?

You want revenge with such a petty trick,

Saintess?

Yao, what are you talking about?

I don't understand at all.

My hand just slipped.

Are you alright?

Is that so?

As it happens, I've studied traditional medicine.

Would you like me to take a look?

Everyone, please judge for yourselves.

It was just a slip of the hand,

and yet Yao Fu from Yunmen wants to strike me.

If you provoke me again,

I'll kill you again!

Waiter,

are our rooms ready?

They've been ready for a while.

Ms. Yao, the rooms are all arranged.

You'll be staying in the premium suite.

I'm going to rest now.

Alright.

Mr. Yang,

the rooms are arranged.

I'll go assign the rooms to the juniors.

Okay.

Come with me.

How's the investigation going?

Any new leads?

Nothing suspicious so far.

I deliberately made a scene

when I came here this time.

They'll definitely

take the bait.

What do you mean?

Would you let others

harm your interests?

Luring the snake out of its hole?

Waiter!

Coming.

What can I do for you?

Come.

Alright.

-Thank you. -Go ahead.

Then I won't disturb your discussion.

I'll head upstairs.

Mr. Yang,

this Miss Yang

is a young girl,

and she keeps pestering you.

It's not really appropriate, isn't it?

How about I drive her away?

You won't get the upper hand with her.

Just let her be.

Senior,

is this an attack of evil thoughts?

It wouldn't act up so quickly.

You're sweating heavily and losing fluids.

You probably took a laxative by mistake.

A laxative?

From my experience,

I'd say there's laxative in this teapot.

What should I do?

Don't worry.

You'll feel better once the effect wears off.

I figure

if you make one or two more trips to the toilet,

you'll be fine.

You're so useless!

I...

Haven't I warned you about the consequences

if you provoke me again?

How dare you slip me a laxative?

Aren't you afraid of dying?

Stop pretending.

The waiter confessed everything.

So what if I did?

Yang Qing is right next door.

Aren't you afraid he'll come to save me?

Stop!

-Yao Fu from Yunmen wants to kill me! -Stop!

Yao Fu from Yunmen wants to kill me!

Help!

-Yao Fu from Yunmen wants to kill me! -Stop!

Who said I want to kill you?

Ms. Yao,

don't stoop to Miss Yang's level.

She's actually no match for you.

Jiang Yan,

don't forget,

she started it.

Yao,

this is the new lipstick I just bought.

I think it suits you really well.

Would you like to try it?

No, thanks.

I just love how unpretentious you are.

Yao,

I heard the east market is really lively.

Let me take you there for a stroll.

No, thanks.

Yao,

I think the dresses from Tianxiu Workshop would look great on you.

I'll buy one for you.

No, thanks.

I have enough clothes.

Yao,

I noticed you don't have many accessories on your head.

The accessories from Jade Pavilion suit you perfectly.

I'll take you to buy some.

No, thanks.

Let's go.

-Let's go. -Let go of me!

Let's go. Come on.

Let's go, let's go.

Come on, my dear Yao.

Let's go!

Why does Miss Yang seem like a completely different person?

Should I inform Mr. Yang?

Manager.

Bring out all your beautiful clothes.

Right away!

Yao, the clothes here are so beautiful.

Go and try some on.

No need.

Just try them on. Come on.

Let's go.

Hurry, hurry.

Yao, let me see, let me see.

Yao, you look so beautiful.

You're so beautiful!

Since when did the Saintess and the Chief's wife

become so close?

This outfit suits you perfectly.

Let me see, let me see.

Let me take a look.

Yao, you are so pretty.

This outfit suits you perfectly.

You look like a goddess.

I like you so much, Yao.

Yao,

shall we try on another outfit?

Don't say no, Yao.

How's the preparation going?

Everything is ready for tonight.

It's just that it might be a bit difficult

to lure the people from Yunmen there.

I'll lure them there.

Make sure everything is well arranged.

Gold Hall Master, don't worry.

This one looks nice too.

I'll send it to Yao.

Fan Hao?

Saintess.

Why are you here?

Come in.

I was worried you'd be all alone

and helpless.

Just say what you need to say.

I need to deliver something to Yao.

Yao?

Yao Fu?

Yes, what about it?

Yang Qing is hard to deal with,

so you went for Yao Fu instead.

Brilliant.

As expected of the Saintess.

You're truly brilliant.

What are you talking about?

Saintess, you suddenly got so close to Yao Fu.

Isn't it to get the Sun Blade?

Don't you think

Yao is very kind?

Why would I go against her?

Did I hear that right?

Saintess,

that's Yao Fu.

The Yao Fu who almost got you killed!

Yao,

this is the new lipstick I just bought.

I think it suits you really well.

Would you like to try it?

No, thanks.

I just love how unpretentious you are.

Yao,

you look so beautiful.

This outfit suits you perfectly.

You look like a goddess.

I like you so much, Yao.

How did I become good friends with her?

Right.

I even bought her clothes.

Am I dreaming?

Dreaming?

I saw it myself that day.

You really did treat Yao Fu differently.

You had her try on clothes

and praised her beauty.

Others would think

you two have been close friends for years.

I was wondering

why I felt kind of off today.

This matter is indeed strange.

Let me investigate.

If she really used dirty tricks against me,

I'll make her wish she were dead.

Yao Fu,

did you drug me?

How could I do

such a despicable thing?

It must have been you.

You...

You...

Yao,

I think something's wrong with me.

Did you not sleep well last night?

Maybe.

Then go get some rest.

But...

Go on.

I'll be going then.

Saintess, what's going on?

What do you mean?

Didn't you go to teach Yao Fu a lesson?

Did you forget?

Did she drug you?

Yao is beautiful and kind-hearted.

There's no way she'd do something like that.

How about I get a doctor for you?

Something's wrong.

Saintess,

do you remember

how Yao Fu seduced the Chief and forced you off the cliff,

which led to the downfall of Shengyue Sect?

Try to remember it.

That's right.

Yao Fu is my enemy.

She killed my only family member

and even killed me with her own hands.

Right.

Yao? Bah!

She's obviously a witch.

Exactly.

No, that's not right.

Yao is a good person.

She's always been kind to me.

Why does my head hurt so much?

You... What happened to you?

Sain... Saintess,

what happened to you?

Sit down, sit down.

What's wrong?

I feel dizzy.

Sir, I just came in to bring some tea,

and this young lady doesn't seem to be feeling well.

Should I call a doctor?

Miss Yang, are you alright?

My head hurts so much.

My head hurts so much.

What's wrong with you? Tell me.

I don't know what's going on.

I should hate Yao Fu,

but every time I see her,

I can't help but listen to what she says.

Think carefully.

What exactly happened?

I have to go ask her.

Miss Yang? Miss Yang!

Who is it?

It's me.

Senior?

Miss Yang fainted.

Junior, don't you have anything to say?

She fainted?

How come she fainted?

Before she passed out,

she said she wanted to ask you something.

What does Miss Yang's fainting

have to do with me?

You've always been at odds with her.

Why did her attitude

toward you

change so much today?

I don't know.

Do you really not know

or did you do something

you shouldn't have?

Senior, are you going to have a falling out

with me over Wang Yue?

Junior, you've been undercover in Shengyue Sect for years.

Your martial skills haven't improved,

but you've picked up

quite a few shady tricks.

Senior, make yourself clear.

Do you dare say there's nothing wrong with this?

Fine.

Since you don't want to answer,

I won't force you.

But tomorrow,

I want to see Yang Wangyue back to her normal self.

Otherwise,

I'll personally remind you

of Yunmen Sect's rules on behalf of the Sect Leader.

Junior,

it's been quite a few days.

How long will you keep acting on your own will?

I'm telling you,

you can't use Fusheng Spell anymore.

Otherwise, your life won't last long.

What happened to Master will be your fate.

Didn't you say that once I got both the Sun and Moon Blades,

I'd be able to suppress the evil thoughts?

I can't make a move without getting rid of Wang Yue first.

Your condition is very unstable right now.

Don't use Fusheng Spell anymore.

Oh no, I think it's broken.

Master treasured it the most when he was alive.

Do you think I don't know that?

But maybe it's not a bad thing.

It's a good thing that the bracelet has now broken.

You can't use Fusheng Spell for now.

Take this chance to go get the two blades

and stop dwelling on the past.

Can it be fixed?

I'll find a way.

Just wait for me.

Stop pretending.

Stop pretending.

Mr. Yang,

have I been asleep long?

Do you remember what happened before?

Let me think.

That damned Yao Fu.

How dare she control me with dark magic?

This time, I'm definitely going to kill her.

Can you really beat her?

I have plenty of ways to kill her.

Then go.

She should be in her room right now.

You're still on her side?

Have you calmed down now?

Can you listen to me now?

This time, it was indeed Junior Yao's fault.

I've already given her a good scolding on your behalf.

If she does it again in the future,

I won't go easy on her.

As for you...

do you think

I really don't know you've been causing her trouble

both openly and secretly?

I... I just can't stand Yao Fu.

But since you said so,

I'll let her go this time.

It's only because I like you.

I'll do whatever you say.

Miss Yang,

can we have an honest conversation?

What exactly do you like about me?

I like that you're skilled in martial arts.

You're so outstanding.

Even if you ignore me,

I still like you.

And?

Besides what you said,

am I worthless in every other way?

Your swordsmanship looks especially graceful.

That's all?

Miss Yang,

you're unconventional and do things your own way,

which is the opposite of me.

We're really not a good match.

Besides,

you like good-looking people.

I'm not the best-looking one.

I can keep an eye on

the good-looking ones for you.

You'd better

not waste your time on me anymore.

From now on, you should...

Are you even listening to me?

I am listening to you carefully.

How do you even make

refusal sound so graceful?

I really didn't expect you

to be

so deeply superficial.

What exactly do you like about me?

Just say it all at once.

I'll change.

I...

I'm afraid if I tell you,

you'll think I'm crazy.

I already think you're crazy.

Go ahead.

Fine.

Yang Qing, I'm telling you,

you're exactly my type in every way.

I like men

who are a head taller than me, so when I lift my head

and wrap my arms around their neck, I can kiss them.

You are.

I like men who are good-looking

and have a great figure.

You are.

I like men who speak slowly

but act quickly,

and even look good when they're angry.

That's still you.

I'm attracted to you

in every way.

Should I die just to make you

stop liking me?

If you really want me to give up,

then I guess you'll have to try that.

You're really...

Mr. Yang!

Mr. Yang!

I'm here.

Mr. Yang, you're here with Miss Yang?

Get to the point.

A group of people showed up at the tavern.

The juniors found them suspicious

and asked us to go there quickly to check it out.

Let's go.

Shang Huai.

Mr. Yang,

we just saw a few people

wearing the Shengyue Sect's emblem

carrying several black bags

as they went upstairs for drinks.

When we passed by,

we deliberately glanced at the black bags

and heard human voices.

So we called you here.

Where are they now?

In Room Yuehu on the second floor.

I was afraid these bad guys might run away,

so I've been guarding here.

Jiang Yan, you all stay outside.

Shang Huai, come in with me.

Yes.

Mr. Yang, let me go in with you too.

Too many people means a higher risk of exposure.

Stay outside.

Yang Qing.

Why did you come along too?

I was worried about you, so I came to check.

I'll go check it out first.

Miss Yang.

[Joyful Pavilion]

Yang Qing?

Yang Qing, what's wrong with you?

Why did you suddenly pass out?

I just kissed you.

It wasn't supposed to be this bad.

[Qinglai Inn]

I wonder how Mr. Yang is doing now.

It's all my fault.

I didn't even notice anything strange at the tavern.

It's not your fault.

They must have planned this in advance.

There was no way you could've noticed.

Mr. Yang must've sensed something.

If we hadn't left first,

we would've been wiped out.

Fortunately,

Shang Huai and the others only suffered minor injuries.

Shang Huai's fine.

He just needed some simple bandaging.

But Ling Xiao and the others…

the doctors said they're not seriously hurt,

but they still haven't woken up.

Go change the water.

I'll take a look.

Yes.

Junior.

Yunmen must have offended someone.

They actually used Ghost Scent poison.

Ghost Scent poison?

Is that what's keeping them unconscious?

The Ghost Scent is the deadliest poison of Shengyue Sect.

In the early stages,

normal doctors can't detect anything.

Those with strong inner strength

simply lose their ability to use it,

while those with weaker cultivation

just fall into a coma.

As the poison reaches the internal organs,

they grow weaker and weaker.

By the time a doctor notices anything,

it'll be too late.

Then how can I save them?

Find Lingyin.

She made the poison,

so she must have the antidote.

Wait.

Junior.

Time is running out.

Why do you care about these Yunmen disciples?

Are you trying to save them

to leave a good impression on Yunmen

so that you can get the Sun Blade more easily?

But that doesn't make sense either.

You used Fusheng Spell

to make Yuan Yingxing fall in love with you,

and that led to the downfall of the Shengyue Sect.

Lingyin hates you to the bone.

Why would she help you?

Let me think.

Lingyin?

The Ghost Scent?

Lingyin?

Here's some good news for you.

You're really lucky

to have a reliable senior like me.

You? Reliable?

Listen.

I spent a fortune to fix it

for you out of respect for Master.

Thanks.

You can't use that spell recklessly anymore,

or you'll be done for.

Okay, okay.

Mr. Yang, you're awake?

How did you get poisoned by Ghost Scent?

I got poisoned by Ghost Scent?

Where are we?

This is downstream of Qinglai River.

We need to leave before dark.

Mr. Yang,

can you still walk?

I was poisoned by Ghost Scent

and need to find the antidote.

If you're okay,

we should split up.

This attack was aimed at me.

It had nothing to do with you.

You don't need to put yourself in danger.

Mr. Yang,

in your condition,

how could I leave you behind?

Besides,

I've finally caught you in trouble.

This is the perfect chance for a beauty to save her hero.

I wouldn't miss it for the world.

But...

I need to find an antidote.

What use would you be if you came along?

Just be a burden?

Mr. Yang,

that's hurtful.

What do you mean by "burden?"

I...

actually have some connections in Shengyue Sect.

Aren't you a village girl?

How could you have connections in Shengyue Sect?

Do you remember my uncle?

He's a member of Shengyue Sect.

I'd like to see

how long you plan to use

your uncle as an excuse.

I'll use my inner energy to regulate my breath.

Mr. Yang,

with this poison,

you mustn't use your inner energy.

It will harm you.

Mr. Yang,

how are you feeling after your rest?

Feeling better?

Aren't you...

afraid of dying?

Of course I am.

I'm afraid that

after I die, I won't see you anymore.

Someone is hunting me.

I know.

Then why do you still...

Mr. Yang, I've thought about it.

If someone is after you,

I'll definitely protect you.

If both of us can't fight them off,

then we can at least be buried together.

Then everyone in the world

will know we're a couple.

Dream on.

Mr. Yang,

if you're feeling better,

let's keep moving.

I just saw

a house up ahead.

I'll help you get there.

Okay. Let's go.

Be careful.

The Chief ordered us

to kill Yang Qing, no matter life or death.

Yes!

[Chengping Garden]

Who told you to go after Yang Qing?

Young Chief,

Yunmen has been tracking

all the way to Qinglai City.

If we don't get rid of Yang Qing,

I'm afraid the Chief's grand cause might...

There are plenty of righteous sects

investigating the missing children cases.

What threat could Yang Qing possibly pose?

You're deliberately targeting him

to oppose me.

We're doing our best

only to help the Chief

achieve his great cause sooner.

The Chief has made an order:

In today's martial world,

Yuan Yingxing and Yang Qing

are strong and young;

they will surely be the Chief's biggest threats in the future.

Yuan Yingxing, as the leader of Shengyue Sect,

must be eliminated.

As for Yang Qing,

if he ever conflicts with our sect's interests,

he can't be spared either.

Nonsense!

Yang Qing has never

truly opposed our sect yet.

Who gave you the right to act on your own?

Could it be

that you don't respect me

as the Young Chief?

We dare not.

Since you don't dare,

then tell me—

where are you heading?

What's wrong?

You're afraid to tell me?

You're leaving the city

just to kill Yang Qing while he's poisoned.

I,

I, Lu Xuanxuan,

as the Young Chief of Biluo Valley,

order you not to harm Yang Qing.

But if you don't get rid of Yang Qing…

But nothing!

Are you all clueless?

You can't kill Yang Qing,

but there's still Yao Fu, Shang Huai, Jiang Yan,

and all other disciples in Yunmen.

But they're all…

What?

I'll say it again:

you're not allowed to leave the city

or so much as touch a hair on Yang Qing's head!

Yes.

Luckily, Yang Qing,

I won't let anything happen to you.

If the Chief finds out you did this,

do you think

he'll let you go?

You're not to tell

my father about my business.

Yang Qing is no good.

Don't fall for his tricks.

Let go of me, you ugly freak!

You're just a traitor to Shengyue Sect,

a rat that everyone wants to get rid of.

Who are you to boss me around?

The Chief has promised that

as long as I kill Yuan Yingxing,

he'll arrange for you to marry me.

Impossible!

My father would never do that.

Why did I betray Shengyue Sect,

endure the torment of ten thousand poison bugs,

and steal our sect's secret manual to give it to the Chief?

Was it all

just for myself?

He told you to kill Yuan Yingxing,

then go and kill him properly.

He's the biggest threat to my father.

I'm killing him for you. Don't you understand?

Power, wealth, fame—

whatever you want,

I can give it all to you.

What did I do wrong?

Why can you only see Yang Qing

but not me?

Let go of me!

What are you doing?

Ugly freak.

Xuanxuan,

you'll regret

treating me like this.

Miss, sir,

what's going on here?

Sir,

last night,

we accidentally fell into Qinglai River

and were swept here.

Could we stay here for the night?

Well...

Grandpa,

it's so late already.

Let's let them stay here for the night.

Our place...

Sir,

we're sorry for the trouble my husband and I have caused you.

Thank you very much.

Come in.

Let's go.

My surname is Zhang.

I live here with my granddaughter Tong.

Usually there aren't many people around here.

There was a snow disaster at the end of last year.

People suffered, refugees increased.

Before, Shengyue Sect kept the peace here.

Since Shengyue Sect is gone,

chaos has risen.

Mr. Zhang.

So it was Shengyue Sect

who used to protect the people around here?

Yes.

The Shengyue Sect's Guardians often led patrols,

so ordinary thieves didn't dare cause trouble.

You'll have to

make do with staying here for the night.

Thank you, Mr. Zhang.

Sir,

you seem to be injured.

I have some medicine for wounds.

If you don't mind,

I can go get it for you

so your wife can apply it.

We're not...

Thank you, Mr. Zhang.

Grandpa, what did you just say

that made this lady so happy?

That's not something kids should be asking.

Mr. Yang,

just now the old man said we're a couple.

We actually do look like a married couple.

Zhang's old.

His eyesight probably isn't great.

Yang Wangyue.

Call me Wangyue.

What are you

trying to do now?

I'm not trying to do anything.

I'm just applying medicine for you.

Applying medicine?

Mr. Yang,

you have no idea.

The wounds on your back are quite serious.

The skin is a completely different color.

Even if I treat it now,

it'll definitely

leave scars.

You know,

this is

the mark of our love.

The… mark of our love?

Yes.

After you get married someday,

when your new bride asks you

where the scars on your back came from,

you can't possibly say

you got them for another woman, right?

I'm the one who caused your injury,

so I can offer myself to you.

Marry me.

Miss Yang, please don't worry about it.

If my future wife minds,

then…

I'd rather stay single forever.

What did you say?

You'd rather never marry

than marry me?

Wait a second.

I haven't finished applying the medicine.

Yeah.

You haven't finished applying the medicine, and you're already putting your hands all over me.

We each saved the other once.

That should be enough for a lifetime commitment.

I...

Can I kiss you?

No.

Why did my kiss make him faint again?

[Jishi Clinic]

Your medicine.

Thank you.

It's about to rain outside.

Why don't you wait a while before leaving?

It's fine.

My husband is waiting for me at home

to brew medicine and treat his illness.

Take care then.

Yuan Yingxing?

Yuan Yingxing!

Yuan Yingxing!

That can't be right.

He's already been locked up in the dungeon.

How could he possibly be here?

I need to get the Sun Blade as soon as possible

to save Yuan Yingxing.
