=Episode 38=

Miss.

Take it away.

What's going on?

- Step back. - Yes.

How can you not be happy on such a joyous day?

It's just a shame Father, Mother, and Yiran can't witness this.

But it doesn't matter.

After we complete the wedding,

we can pay our respects to them. Right?

We can also give Qiushui a surprise.

I told you,

my husband must be a hero who can command the martial world.

This is the Hero Token that can command the martial world.

Today, I give it to you.

Henceforth, we can command the martial world together.

Kaiyan, I was just an orphan,

luckily raised by the Xiao family

and learned medicine to roam the martial world.

I vowed long ago to help as many people as possible,

not to marry someone

and spend my life as a housewife.

But all that is in the past now.

I've already figured it out.

We should always look forward.

There's no need to linger over useless obsessions.

Thank you.

I'm glad that you've changed your mind.

Whether you wish to heal people or roam the martial world,

your talents can flourish beyond the Daxi Era.

You poisoned me?

We should always look forward.

Exactly. The only one thing I want to do now is

to see you dead.

Why does the entire family betray me?

In that case, it seems only your death will make you stay.

I will make you all understand

who truly brings glory to the Xiao family.

(Wedding Invitation)

It's really hard to invite you over.

You're finally here.

Come, sit. Sit down.

Xiao Kaiyan, where's Xueyu?

Take it easy.

Today is my wedding day with Xueyu.

Haven't drunk together for long.

Here.

Have a toast with me.

What? Think it's poisoned?

Don't worry. I won't kill you yet.

All these days,

we couldn't find Xueyu,

so you've been imprisoning her here,

forcing her to marry you.

I won't drink this.

You don't deserve my toast.

Look at you.

You are not decent anymore.

Have you forgotten?

Since childhood, Xueyu has always protected you most.

Did I hear you wrong?

Protected me most?

You said you've protected me the most?

In that case, let me make it clear with you.

Since childhood...

Since childhood...

You were born with glory,

while a loser like me,

could never achieve greatness.

Mother taught me to live peacefully and obediently.

Yet she favored you and Yiren.

But what did Xiao Yiren do?

He's arrogant and stubborn, nothing like a young sect leader.

What makes you better than me besides causing trouble?

Let me tell you. Today,

I own this martial world and the world.

I, Xiao Kaiyan, can get whatever I want.

Xueyu.

Xueyu.

Why can't even my wedding day

go as I wish?

Xueyu.

Xueyu.

I'm Qiushui.

Don't scare me, Xueyu.

♪As waterside blossoms wither♪

♪How brief this mortal journey goes♪

♪The wind rises freely♪

♪Like a mournful farewell ode♪

♪When zither breaks, who'll sing along♪

♪How deep does sorrow flow♪

♪Gazing at the moon beyond horizons♪

♪Let tears fall where maple leaves stay calm♪

♪Regret remains wordless♪

♪Broken spears sink in sand♪

Xiao Xueyu.

I haven't achieved my great ambitions.

How dare you die?

♪Love, hatred, and debts unpaid♪

♪Grudges fall like rain♪

♪Endless regrets tangled like hemp♪

♪Missed chances at time's crossroads♪

♪This inescapable fate♪

♪A touch ripples the moonlit water♪

Xiao Qiushui.

Do you desperately want me dead now?

On our wedding day,

she only wanted to kill me.

Why do I always have to abandon everything

before obtaining what I desire?

♪Like a mournful farewell ode♪

♪When zither breaks, who'll sing along♪

♪How deep does sorrow flow♪

♪Gazing at the moon beyond horizons♪

Xueyu.

I will take you home.

♪As flowers fall, so does the heart♪

I wanted to give her a chance,

yet she chose to betray me.

I have to destroy everything you cherish.

Xueyu is dead.

What are you waiting for?

Kill me.

Kill me!

Kill me,

then you'll never find General Wu.

Xiao Qiushui, you coward!

What a coward.

I won't kill you.

Kill you, then you can't witness my reign over the world.

Keeping you alive is far more intriguing.

Pathetic.

In lightness skills, you three rank top.

I've heard so much flattery like this.

But since you said it,

I'll accept the praise.

It's a pity.

Your internal energy and swordsmanship

can't match our Daxi's hidden masters.

Hidden masters?

In my opinion, you're all hiding filth and decay!

If you didn't have traitors,

Xiao Kaiyan couldn't have captured Wu Jie.

So General Wu is here!

It's okay to tell him.

Wu Jie failed to report to the imperial court,

which has aroused suspicion.

Even if we release him now,

he can't stop North Wasteland's plan either.

You three claim to be martial arts seniors,

yet to me, you're only people who crave wealth and honor.

Why else serve under Xiao Kaiyan?

Well said, Yan Kuangtu!

You are known as the Supreme Master of Daxi Era.

Today, let's fight it out.

What? How?

Think you can shake Daxi's foundations?

Let me show you

true Daxi's martial arts!

Master Yan, I really underestimated you.

I thought to spare you for Xueyu's sake,

but now I don't.

Where's General Wu?

General Wu is irrelevant now.

Let me take your martial arts, Master Yan.

Is this Supreme Master's internal energy?

Good!

Master Yan, thank you for your gift!

You're just a thieving rat!

You'll never put Daxi

into chaos!

What's the purpose to survive?

To live joyfully, die without regrets,

and uphold justice.

- To live a worthy life. - To live a worthy life.

Live a worthy life.

Qiushui.

You'll handle the rest.

(Tomb of Xiao Xilou and Sun Huishan)

(Master Yan told Xueyu about the Book of Oblivion.)

(Tomb of Xiao Xilou and Sun Huishan) (She risked her life to write the mantra on her hem,)

(Tomb of Xiao Yiren) (just for me to see.)

(Yiren, Xueyu.)

(Take care of our parents in the netherworld.)

(I'll join you after avenging you.)

(Serene Composure)

No!

(No one in this world,)

(and no one with the right,)

(can force you against your will.)

(This is what all those)

(who truly care about you desire.)

Father, I'm tired.

This musical score is too difficult

to master.

The sword manuals too.

Yet you never complained while practicing swordsmanship.

That is different.

Swordsmanship's in the Xiao family's blood.

I won't get tired of it.

Kaiyan, try it.

Father, what is this?

I can't even understand it.

You can't master swordsmanship,

and can't learn the guqin well either.

Great! Thankfully, Qiushui

is talented. He takes after me.

This is called "Snow Across the World".

Mystical and ethereal. It captivates my soul.

Qiushui, practice more.

(Never expected the Jiang brothers, to repay kindness,)

(not only carved Book of Oblivion in the Sword Retreat,)

(but also hid it in the musical score.)

(Book of Oblivion focuses on the vibe,)

(where melodies birth techniques, minds conjure infinity.)

(Yet my father said those who care for the world)

(will always find their way to each other.)

(Thus, loyalty binds this martial world's essence.)

(To live joyfully, die without regrets,)

and uphold justice.

To live a worthy life.

Book of Oblivion's fifteen techniques:

Heavenly will, earthly form.

Monarch's sway, kinship's bond.

Mentor's creed, metal's edge.

Wood's tenacity, water's flow.

Fire's spread, earth's shroud.

Solar blaze, lunar glow.

Wind's charm, cloud's veil.

Selfless void.

Be ruthless.

It means

to be empathetic to the world!

Your Majesty.

You may leave.

Chenzhou, come here!

Drop the formalities. Join me for wine.

Chenzhou, please.

The Xianren Pass...

We two rarely gather here.

Today, no politics, just drinking.

Chenzhou, drink with me.

Chenzhou, this wine comes from North Wasteland.

If we can make a truce now,

there will be an endless supply of such wine and delicacy.

Make a truce?

You may not know.

Northern cavalry will crush the Xianren Pass.

If it falls,

Daxi's territory lies defenseless,

with no strongholds. and the capital would fall.

Whose fault then, Your Majesty?

Chenzhou, why say so?

We are having the peace talks.

There's no threat of invasion at all.

Would someone try to

take advantage of the conflict between Daxi and North Wasteland

to carry out some malice plans?

All these years, I know

the rumors about me indulging in pleasures,

and ignoring the desire to reclaim Central Plains.

But Daxi has been weak for many years,

more war will only worsen our decay.

Others might not understand me.

Don't you understand me either?

All I do is for the Daxi and the people.

Really?

Have you truly considered the people?

If peace talks worked, why are we at such a crisis now?

Who benefits from endless war?

Wu Jie still doesn't return,

and his Wu Army defies my orders!

Does someone aid them covertly,

so they would dare do such rebellion?

Countless soldiers died on battlefields,

the general got ambushed and is missing.

You don't focus on fighting against the enemies,

but suspects me here?

If this continues, how could the Daxi not perish?

Li Chenzhou! How dare you!

How dare you to say such treasonous words!

The founder established this nation at war.

His successor ruled through wisdom and strength.

Through ages, all lands bowed.

To be complacent will only bring a dead end.

Compromise brings no lasting peace!

Daxi's foundation spans centuries.

It all depends on your thought.

You've spoiled my mood.

I wanted to drink with you.

But clearly, you don't want to.

I need to attend the state affairs. You may leave.

I've had enough of this wine.

I toast this cup to the frontline warriors

and to those fallen heroes of the martial world.

Think it over.

The North Wasteland feign peace talks

while plotting the invasion.

Do you recall our vow

to reclaim our lost territories?

I will fulfill it in my own way.

Take care.

(Li Chenzhou, don't blame me for being ruthless.)

(You chose this path to destroy yourself.)
