[The Journey of Legend]

[Episode 2]

Do you know

who's behind the Gold and Silver Bank?

Who is it?

Fu Tianyi, the demon of the Power Gang.

So what if it's him?

Big Brother, you always say we should uphold justice.

You're the bravest of us all.

Why do I feel like

you're a different person today?

It's actually because...

Because...

I got it!

It's because the Power Gang has never meddled in Jinzhong.

Big Brother is worried

that if we're discovered,

they'll have

a reason to attack the martial world of Jinzhong, right?

That's why you want us to launch a sneak attack,

right?

I guess I'm a bit lucky.

Yes.

It seems Rou

understands me best.

That's exactly it.

As expected of Big Brother.

You think on such a grand scale.

I agree.

Big Brother, don't worry.

Before we met you,

we were just

three young punks who practiced martial arts all day.

You guided us to start upholding justice.

Whatever you want to do,

just make the decision.

We'll follow your lead.

Alright.

Then let's do this.

Tomorrow,

we'll set out for Zihui.

Okay!

Okay!

Oh, no. I just remembered.

In the original story,

that was where Tang Rou suffered a sneak attack.

Oh right, Tang Rou.

I don't think you should participate

in this mission.

Why?

It's because...

I met a fortune teller a couple of days ago

who did a divination for you.

It showed that this trip would bring more harm than good to you.

It'll be dangerous.

Hey.

Why are you laughing?

I'm telling the truth!

-Big Brother. -Big Brother.

Are you being serious?

Big Brother,

when have our heroic deeds ever been without danger

Besides, even if I, Tang Rou, were afraid,

the Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needles at my waist certainly aren't.

Hey guys,

can't you be a little less reckless?

I'm being serious with you!

Big Brother, why are you being so fussy?

Did that fortune teller put a curse on you or something?

Forget it. Let's take it one step at a time.

I should have read the original story more carefully.

[Zihui]

Come on.

Take it slow.

Here.

Careful. Thank you.

Thank you. Take care, you two.

-We're leaving. -Take care.

Don't worry, madam.

-We'll be there soon. -Alright.

One basket of steamed buns and four bowls of beef noodles.

Certainly. Just a moment.

Have a seat, Big Brother.

This way.

Big Brother.

Here, have some tea first.

Bravo!

Here.

These steamed buns look quite good.

Bravo!

Drink some water.

-Move, move! -!t's too hot today.

What are you looking at?

Move aside.

Move!

Move, move!

Everyone, move!

Hurry up.

This... this...

What's going on? What are you doing?

Behave yourself.

Let me go!

-Move! -What are you doing?

Please spare me, sir!

Please have mercy, sir!

I'll give you one more day.

Tomorrow at noon,

if you don't deliver the money to the Gold and Silver Bank,

I'll burn this shabby boat of yours to the ground.

Stop!

What are you doing?

What's the matter? Want to be a hero?

So what if I do?

Sir, please don't fight!

Please don't fight!

If a fight breaks out here,

my business will be ruined.

That's right.

Did you hear that, young man?

They're going to save them?

One day.

-Yes, yes, yes, sir. -Just one day.

Let's go.

Let's go.

Are you two alright, gentlemen?

-Thank you, sirs. -Thank you, sirs.

Tang Rou, why don't you go ask

and see what's going on with that boat captains over there?

Captain, what's wrong?

Don't mention it. We scraped together all our savings

and finally managed to buy a boat

just to make a living.

In the past,

we used to pay tribute to Zhu the Great King of the waterway.

Now, we're using the river's branch routes,

and we're being extorted by the Gold and Silver Bank.

The war has just eased for a few years.

How can we make any profit?

We can't keep this business going like this.

The Gold and Silver Bank?

Them again?

Why is this Gold and Silver Bank so tyrannical?

No one in the Wubei area

dares to offend the Gold and Silver Bank.

They can make life

more miserable than death.

Indeed.

Here it is.

The NPCs are here to push the plot forward.

Let's not talk about it anymore.

Let's go, let's go.

Let's go.

Big Brother, it seems your lead was right.

They're such bullies.

Big Brother, we must pay a visit to the Gold and Silver Bank.

Yes.

Is there such a rush?

We need to plan this out.

Besides, the noodles haven't even been served yet.

Come on, sit down and eat.

What's there to plan? Let's go, let's go!

-What plan? -It's too late.

Let's go, Big Brother.

Let's go.

But I'm hungry.

Let's go.

Your sword!

Big Brother, this way please.

Sir,

-your beef noodles... -No need anymore!

What's going on?

[Gold and Silver Bank]

It's right here.

Come on.

Brothers, come on, take these.

Once we're inside,

remember, don't reveal your identities no matter what.

Put these on properly.

Big Brother, we're here to uphold justice.

No need.

That's right, let's go.

You won't wear them for night operations? Put them on!

Take it.

Um,

those buns aren't sitting well with me.

I need to use the toilet.

You all need to be extra careful.

Don't go, don't go.

You're pulling this trick again, aren't you?

I know what you're doing.

You're doing the same thing as last time,

trying to send us away

so you can face the strong enemy alone, right?

Big Brother, let me tell you,

it's absolutely not happening this time.

That's right.

I'm not joking with you guys.

Anyway, I'm telling you,

it's very dangerous in there.

You must be extremely careful.

Do you understand?

Please, please be very careful.

There's nothing we can do about him. Let's go.

What do you mean?

I'm talking to you guys.

Where are you going?

Isn't the entrance right there?

Big Brother, make way.

W-What are you doing?

Move aside.

What are you doing?

Oh my goodness!

They really can fly.

How about

I give it a try?

No way,

I don't have any lightness skills at all.

This is today's rent from Hehan Street.

This is the tribute from the 18 shops at the street corner today.

Good, good, good.

That woman from the gold shop said business was bad.

She was crying and refusing to pay.

I dragged her back here.

Boss,

what do you want to do with her?

Blind her

and throw her in the marketplace

to set an example for everyone.

Who dares

to cause trouble at the Gold and Silver Bank?

Do you know who the owner of this place is?

Isn't it Fu Tianyi, the Iron-Fisted Demon of the Power Gang?

Since you know,

why are you still here?

Not only are we not leaving,

but we're also going to

eliminate

you

trouble

makers.

That's quite a bold statement.

Chop them into pieces

and throw them into the river to feed the fish!

Are we really doing this?

Zuoqiu's silk-binding grappling technique is impressive.

Clean and powerful.

As fellow swordsmen,

Yuhan's Hailin Sword Sect's technique is known for its intricacy.

His lethality is not to be underestimated.

Flying daggers.

The Tang Sect's hidden weapons are indeed formidable.

No wonder the Tang Sect has stood strong for a century.

My underlings are quite impressive.

Blood... It really is blood.

Where is Fu Tianyi?

I don't know.

Escaping is the best strategy of all.

Staying alive is the priority.

Be careful.

Alright.

Hey.

Captain,

where are you heading?

Sir, you are...

Don't you remember?

Yesterday at the dock, when you were being bullied,

my brothers and I came to your rescue.

-Oh, it's you, young hero. -Yes, yes.

It's the young hero.

Young hero, you may not know,

but we've gathered some silver

and are about to deliver it to the Gold and Silver Bank.

Yes, we hope they'll show mercy

and forgive us.

That's right.

You don't need to go anymore.

Someone has already eliminated the threat for you.

How is that possible?

That's the Power Gang's Gold and Silver Bank!

Indeed.

Don't worry.

No one will bully you anymore.

Ah...

-Thank you, young hero. -Thank you, young hero.

Hurry and go.

Lad.

You hired people to wipe out the Gold and Silver Bank?

Well done!

That Gold and Silver Bank was utterly heartless,

committing numerous crimes. It should've been destroyed long ago.

Stop talking!

Young hero!

You talk too much.

A man fishing in the wind and rain

on the huge rock at the riverside dock...

He's the Iron-Fisted Demon, Fu Tianyi?

[Iron-Fisted Demon of the Power Gang] [Fu Tianyi]

I've already run so far away.

How can I still run into him?

This plot twist feels too forced.

You go first.

Okay, okay, okay.

Don't move.

Kneel down, kneel down.

Behave yourself.

Kneel!

[Northern Wasteland Seal]

I never expected

the Gold and Silver Bank would conspire with Northern Wastelanders.

But these people are too tight-lipped.

We can't get them to reveal the mastermind's whereabouts.

We've fought all night

but still can't find the Iron-Fisted Demon's whereabouts.

These three young heroes are incredibly skilled.

Did you see?

They destroyed the entire Gold and Silver Bank.

Tang Rou.

There's something I must tell you.

What is it?

Be careful of...

What's wrong?

It's nothing.

Remember this.

You must be wary of someone holding an umbrella.

Someone holding an umbrella.

Come on, you're really being superstitious now.

Well...

Besides,

it doesn't even look like it's going to rain.

Can you be more serious?

I'm not joking with you.

Remember what I said. The key point is,

be careful of someone holding an umbrella.

Do you understand?

Everyone has an umbrella.

Who am I supposed to be wary of?

Exactly.

These villains deserve to be dealt with properly.

The rain stopped so suddenly.

The rain has stopped.

The rain has stopped. Who would still be using an umbrella?

Make way!

Heaven is on our side.

The constables are here! The constables are here!

They should all be arrested.

Take them all away.

These are the villains.

Yes, arrest them all.

Arrest these beasts!

Don't move!

That's right.

Who are you people?

We're here to rid the people of harm.

You government-paid officials finally show up now.

May I ask the names of you righteous heroes?

We are...

There's no need to know our names.

Those scoundrels are locked up in the back.

You can just take them away.

The Gold and Silver Bank has been exploiting the people for a long time.

As a mere constable,

I've never dared to take action. I'm truly ashamed.

But I'm afraid

you've only caught some small fry.

The real boss, however...

Do you know where their real boss is?

You need to understand. If you don't tell us now,

you'll be the ones

in trouble after we leave.

Alright, I'll take you there.

Oh my goodness!

Isn't that our Big Brother?

-Big Brother! -So Big Brother found Fu Tianyi already.

What did I tell you?

He ran off on his own again.

Don't come over! It's dangerous!

Big Brother, don't worry!

We won't interfere.

We'll leave the toughest Iron-Fisted Demon to you.

Big Brother, you've got this!

Beat him up!

Come on, Big Brother!

You pig-headed fools!

What kind of encouragement is this?

Come on, Big Brother!

-Come on! -Come on, Big Brother!

Huanhua Sword Technique, Second Form: Soaring to the Heavens!

Third Form: Plucking Petals and Leaves!

Fourth Form: Starry Sky!

Big Brother! Big Brother!

Are you hurt? Are you okay?

Are you alright?

I'm fine.

So my subconscious mind

remembers the martial arts this body practiced before.

Huanhua Sword Technique.

Since when did Xiao Xilou's people

dare to oppose the Power Gang?

I heard you killed my men.

Then stay and fill the vacancies.

Work for me.

You won't refuse, will you?

What do you think?

Of course we're not willing.

You think you can order us around?

How could you all be a match for me?

One-on-one, of course we're not.

But four against one is a different story.

You think you have four people?

It's not a guess. It's a fact.

What if I make you lose one person?

One less... Tang Rou!

It's you!

Are you alright?

Tang Rou.

Good thing I have this.

Here, take this.

For self-defense.

Underwear?

This isn't my size.

Tie it around you.

No one can ambush a member of the Tang Sect.

Remember that.

Not one of us four will be missing.

Then you four...

can prepare to die!

-Big Brother! -Big Brother!

Charge!

Kill!

Is everyone alright?

We're fine.

The Iron-Fisted Demon lives up to his name.

He's truly impervious to weapons.

Fu Tianyi's hands are impenetrable.

Tang Rou, Yuhan,

restrain his arms!

Zuoqiu, attack his lower body!

Go!

This move, the Flower Rain Sword,

uses the blade as a hidden weapon,

and the scabbard as the killing blow.

It's truly amazing.

He's dead.

Big Brother, he's dead!

Big Brother!

We... We won!

We won!

Tang Rou,

thank goodness you're still here.

Of course I'm here.

I... I actually used the Xiao family's martial arts

to kill Fu Tianyi?

Of course you used martial arts.

What else could you have used?

It seems

this Power Gang isn't all that great.

Today, we killed the Iron-Fisted Demon.

Tomorrow, we can kill the Eight Heavenly Kings

and the Nineteen Demons.

That's right, let's kill them all!

Eight Heavenly Kings, Nineteen Demons...

Oh right, in the original story, the Power Gang

discovered that we killed Fu Tianyi,

so they besieged the Xiao family.

This is bad.

Yuhan, Chaoran,

go get some money

to silence that boatman.

Tang Rou, go buy a small boat

and get some lamp oil.

Why?

What do you mean "why?" Just go quickly!

Don't ask so many useless questions!

Go!

Let's go.

Someone really died.

I...

What... What have I done?

Are we destroying evidence?

Brothers,

don't think too much now.

It's perfect timing to leave Zihui

before it gets dark.

Let's go, let's go.

Let's go.

Sirs, your dishes are all here.

Alright.

Waiter.

Sir, please enjoy your meal.

Thank you for your hard work.

[Everlasting Prosperity]

Come on.

We should have run far enough by now.

Finally, we can eat in peace.

Chopsticks.

Let's eat.

Come on.

By the way,

we clearly did the martial world a favor by eliminating evil.

Why are we acting like criminals?

That's right, Big Brother.

Come here, come here.

Why else could it be?

I'm afraid of dying.

Afraid of dying?

W-When have we ever been afraid of death?

Yeah.

I've known you for so many years.

It's the first time I've heard you say you're afraid of dying.

Are you sick or something?

Come on, everyone.

Let me ask you,

Is it more worthwhile to kill one or 10 villains?

Killing 10, of course.

That's right.

As the saying goes,

"Keep a low profile, be humble, don't get cocky."

That's true.

Look,

the four of us

barely managed to defeat one villain today.

What if the remaining evil members of the Power Gang

came after us together?

We'd be finished for sure.

So...

We must prepare secretly,

quietly build up our strength,

and then gradually eliminate evil and protect the innocent.

When we have enough strength,

we can challenge the Power Gang.

Then we'll kill them all.

Come on,

eat up. It's on me today!

That makes sense.

I'm starving.

I understand now.

Big Brother is thinking about building up our strength

to face the Power Gang head-on in the future.

Truly a role model for our generation. I'm impressed.

Well... That's not exactly what I meant.

I got it!

Big Brother, remember that thing we talked about before?

Today is the perfect time.

Yes, Big Brother,

now is the right time.

Right.

Let's forget about this cliché plot.

How can we forget about it, Big Brother?

Three months ago, you said it yourself.

After we've done a truly righteous deed,

we'll officially establish the Shenzhou Sworn Brotherhood.

Tang Rou.

Shenzhou Sworn Brotherhood?

Wasn't it the Four Brothers of Jinjiang?

Big Brother, what's wrong with your memory?

You said it yourself

that we shouldn't limit it to just Jinzhong.

We should gather righteous men from all over the world.

That's why we formed the Shenzhou Sworn Brotherhood.

Today is the birth of the Shenzhou Sworn Brotherhood.

The original Xiao Qiushui was quite rebellious, huh?

Shenzhou Sworn Brotherhood?

This name

is quite ambitious.

Big Brother.

This knife...

-Has this knife been disinfected? -Big Brother?

Do you have a needle?

A needle?

This... This knife isn't rusty, is it?

W-Why is everyone so intense?

Heaven above, with the moon as witness,

the Shenzhou Sworn Brotherhood will live and die together.

Are they for real?

What's wrong, Big Brother?

Drink up!

Yes!

Cheers!

Cheers!

From today on,

the Shenzhou Sworn Brotherhood will live and die together.

Live and die together.

Yes, Big Brother!

Living together is fine,

but dying together... that might not be necessary, right?

That's true.

If we ever face a life-or-death crisis,

I'm willing to give my chance of survival to Big Brother.

Me too.

Agreed.

Why are you all talking such nonsense so seriously?

Come on, stand up and talk.

Stand up to talk. Stop kneeling.

We are serious.

Is Xiao Qiushui...

really worth all this loyalty?

That year when I first left Tang Sect and fell into a villain's trap,

it was you who risked your life to lure away the villains,

allowing me to escape.

And at that time,

we were just strangers who met by chance.

Big Brother, when Chaoran and I went out to gain experience,

we recklessly fought and injured our internal energy.

You were just passing by at that time,

but you stayed with us in that temple for three days and nights.

From that moment on,

I knew

you were the big brother I'd follow through life and death.

The Shenzhou Sworn Brotherhood was born out of chivalry.

As long as you're here,

chivalry exists.

Yes.

Yes!

This talk is getting more and more inauspicious.

What nonsense are you all talking about?

Since you all call me Big Brother,

it means you trust me.

Then as the Big Brother,

I have the responsibility to take good care of you all.

So, we all need to live well.

That's right, live well.

Live well.

Live well.

Let me pour you some wine.

-Let me pour Big Brother a drink. -Fill it up for him.

Xiao Qiushui was such a noble and righteous young man.

I'm using his identity,

so I can't let them down.

Okay, as long as I can complete the mission, I can go back.

Before that, I'll protect them well.

You spoiled key plot points to Tang Rou,

affecting the direction of the story.

The Boiling Blood Cocoon warning punishment begins.

Countdown.

Three, two, one.

The Boiling Blood Cocoon warning punishment ends.

The next activation

will officially deplete the user's health points.

And from now on, the plot difficulty increases.

Difficulty increased?

How much more do you want to increase it?

You might as well kill me.

I spoiled the plot to Tang Rou and saved him,

which activated the Boiling Blood Cocoon.

If it happens again, I'll really be dead.

But strangely,

the Power Gang used Fu Tianyi's death

to besiege the Xiao family for revenge.

But I've already disposed of the body.

Why am I still dreaming about the Xiao family being massacred?

Could it be that this isn't over?

Regardless, I need to be fully prepared.

I can't let the original story's tragedy happen again.

If you can become the leader of Huanhua Sect,

you can enter your own outline mode.

The Magic Codex will no longer interfere.

So if I become the leader of Huanhua Sect

and eliminate the Boiling Blood Cocoon,

I can lead the direction of the story?

That would be perfect.

How exactly do I become the sect leader

and change the story's direction?

Xueyu being an adopted daughter

was content I created.

It means the Magic Codex kept some of my characterization.

What about the cheat mode I set up before?

If I remember correctly,

at the bottom of this river

is an invincible treasure sword.

And in the cave here,

there's a white wolf skilled in martial arts.

In these ruins, there's a Gatling gun.

And most importantly,

I created a lucky bag NPC named Feng Lang.

He's highly skilled in martial arts

and completely obedient to me.

As long as one of these cheats is still here,

changing the story's direction

will be much easier.

Tang Rou!

Yuhan!

Zuoqiu!

Wake up, wake up!

Big Brother, aren't you getting up a bit too early?

I'm so sleepy.

What do you mean early? The sun's already shining on your butts.

Still sleeping in?

Big Brother, it's raining. Do we still have to go out?

Let me tell you, this is called a sun shower.

It'll stop raining soon.

Come on, let's go.

Big Brother, take a look at this.

Catch!

The invincible magic sword?

Isn't this just a foot filer?

And that Gatling-something

is obviously just a chamber pot.

And the most ridiculous thing?

It's this big gray wolf that's supposed to teach martial arts.

Go away!

Why is this white wolf yellow?

The system said last night it would increase the difficulty.

Does that mean

it's going to take away all the cheats I wrote?

Then Feng Lang, the powerful

lucky bag NPC,

definitely won't be here for me.

Big Brother,

you woke us up so early in the morning,

but you haven't told us what we're supposed to do.

Actually, I did all this because

I just want to be the sect leader of Huanhua Sect.

Sect leader?

Big Brother, you're not joking with us, are you?
