00:01:51,580 --> 00:01:54,540
(Si Mansion)

22
00:01:59,580 --> 00:02:00,380
Today,

23
00:02:00,540 --> 00:02:01,660
I might have been

24
00:02:01,660 --> 00:02:03,020
too harsh on Hong.

25
00:02:04,300 --> 00:02:06,260
I just want him to succeed.

26
00:02:06,620 --> 00:02:07,180
(Your Lordship,)

27
00:02:07,180 --> 00:02:08,500
(your attitude towards Situ Hong)

28
00:02:08,500 --> 00:02:09,500
(and Si Borong)

29
00:02:09,500 --> 00:02:10,580
(is really different.)

30
00:02:11,060 --> 00:02:12,100
What's different?

31
00:02:12,180 --> 00:02:13,900
Borong's abilities are average,

32
00:02:13,900 --> 00:02:14,980
and he just knows how to showboat.

33
00:02:14,980 --> 00:02:15,980
You're very lenient with him.

34
00:02:15,980 --> 00:02:16,620
Situ Hong

35
00:02:16,620 --> 00:02:17,780
trains harder

36
00:02:17,780 --> 00:02:18,860
and has stronger martial arts skills.

37
00:02:19,140 --> 00:02:20,780
But you're even stricter with him.

38
00:02:20,940 --> 00:02:22,380
You noticed that, huh?

39
00:02:22,780 --> 00:02:25,020
Borong is playful,

40
00:02:25,020 --> 00:02:26,300
and his martial arts foundation is weak.

41
00:02:26,460 --> 00:02:28,060
He's not interested in it.

42
00:02:28,140 --> 00:02:30,220
Just let him be happy.

43
00:02:30,500 --> 00:02:32,220
If we push him too hard,

44
00:02:32,220 --> 00:02:34,140
it could backfire.

45
00:02:35,660 --> 00:02:37,260
As for Situ Hong,

46
00:02:37,260 --> 00:02:38,980
he has exceptional talent
in martial arts.

47
00:02:39,340 --> 00:02:40,700
He trains diligently

48
00:02:40,700 --> 00:02:41,780
and never slacks off.

49
00:02:41,940 --> 00:02:43,100
That's why

50
00:02:43,100 --> 00:02:45,060
I need to focus more on cultivating him,

51
00:02:45,260 --> 00:02:47,180
helping him reach higher levels

52
00:02:47,420 --> 00:02:49,260
and perhaps even surpass me.

53
00:02:52,700 --> 00:02:54,660
One day, he will understand

54
00:02:54,660 --> 00:02:56,780
my good intentions for him.

55
00:03:18,300 --> 00:03:19,340
(Vanishing Technique)

56
00:03:26,700 --> 00:03:27,900
You're a good-for-nothing

57
00:03:27,900 --> 00:03:29,420
and have brought shame to our family.

58
00:03:29,540 --> 00:03:29,980
And now,

59
00:03:29,980 --> 00:03:31,820
you're even stealing
something from the house!

60
00:03:35,140 --> 00:03:36,140
You ungrateful brat!

61
00:03:36,140 --> 00:03:38,020
Let me teach you a lesson.

62
00:03:41,620 --> 00:03:42,420
Aunt.

63
00:03:48,740 --> 00:03:50,220
You're not Chi Qiubai.

64
00:03:50,700 --> 00:03:51,340
Well.

65
00:03:51,700 --> 00:03:52,820
Don't I look like him?

66
00:03:54,380 --> 00:03:55,780
Si Lianghong was once

67
00:03:55,780 --> 00:03:57,380
the vanguard general
in the great battle.

68
00:03:57,700 --> 00:03:59,020
Although

69
00:03:59,020 --> 00:04:00,180
in the Nanqin Demon Well incident,

70
00:04:00,220 --> 00:04:01,740
she used up much of her energy

71
00:04:01,900 --> 00:04:03,220
to fill the cracks.

72
00:04:03,860 --> 00:04:04,900
Even so,

73
00:04:05,300 --> 00:04:07,180
it's not that easy to kill her

74
00:04:07,740 --> 00:04:09,300
with your ability.

75
00:04:09,940 --> 00:04:11,700
Is she that powerful?

76
00:04:13,860 --> 00:04:15,980
Even though you've practiced
demonic techniques,

77
00:04:16,540 --> 00:04:18,380
it can't guarantee you'll kill her.

78
00:04:18,780 --> 00:04:19,980
And what I want

79
00:04:20,620 --> 00:04:22,540
is a foolproof way.

80
00:04:24,060 --> 00:04:25,220
What should I do?

81
00:04:25,540 --> 00:04:27,300
I'll disguise you as Chi Qiubai.

82
00:04:27,740 --> 00:04:29,220
Chi Qiubai.

83
00:04:29,500 --> 00:04:30,100
Only when she is

84
00:04:30,100 --> 00:04:31,500
extremely weak

85
00:04:31,860 --> 00:04:33,540
will she let her guard down.

86
00:04:33,940 --> 00:04:35,900
Seize the opportunity
and kill her with one blow.

87
00:04:36,460 --> 00:04:37,700
You know what to do.

88
00:04:41,820 --> 00:04:42,580
Moyang Chen!

89
00:04:55,100 --> 00:04:56,260
I'll give you the manual
of the Vanishing Technique.

90
00:04:56,260 --> 00:04:57,420
Please spare my aunt.

91
00:04:59,180 --> 00:05:01,020
You traitor!

92
00:05:04,260 --> 00:05:04,820
Okay.

93
00:05:05,180 --> 00:05:06,660
I'll help you

94
00:05:06,860 --> 00:05:08,540
as promised.

95
00:05:24,820 --> 00:05:26,460
The master's manual

96
00:05:26,540 --> 00:05:28,100
should be kept by you.

97
00:05:31,980 --> 00:05:32,940
Hong.

98
00:05:39,260 --> 00:05:40,740
Test your skills.

99
00:05:41,420 --> 00:05:42,700
After dealing with her,

100
00:05:43,060 --> 00:05:44,540
everything will be yours.

101
00:06:02,860 --> 00:06:04,020
Don't!

102
00:06:06,980 --> 00:06:07,940
Hong.

103
00:06:24,740 --> 00:06:25,580
Aunt.

104
00:06:28,100 --> 00:06:28,980
Aunt.

105
00:06:29,500 --> 00:06:30,580
Someone!

106
00:06:30,740 --> 00:06:32,020
Someone!

107
00:06:32,620 --> 00:06:33,420
Aunt.

108
00:06:33,420 --> 00:06:34,860
Aunt, you'll be fine.

109
00:06:34,860 --> 00:06:35,580
You'll be fine.

110
00:06:37,340 --> 00:06:38,300
Knight Changfeng.

111
00:06:45,460 --> 00:06:46,500
Murder!

112
00:06:46,500 --> 00:06:48,500
Chi Qiubai killed Lord Si Lianghong!

113
00:06:48,500 --> 00:06:49,700
Murder!

114
00:07:01,900 --> 00:07:03,500
(If I had been a little faster,)

115
00:07:04,140 --> 00:07:06,060
(I could have caught up with him then.)

116
00:07:06,700 --> 00:07:07,620
Xueying,

117
00:07:09,500 --> 00:07:10,700
have you seen Master?

118
00:07:11,220 --> 00:07:11,860
No,

119
00:07:11,860 --> 00:07:13,020
I haven't seen him lately.

120
00:07:13,140 --> 00:07:14,500
Lord Si Lianghong of Nanqin City

121
00:07:14,500 --> 00:07:15,220
was murdered.

122
00:07:15,220 --> 00:07:17,020
They say she was having
a secret meeting with Master

123
00:07:17,020 --> 00:07:18,940
and that they were discussing
spatial techniques

124
00:07:18,940 --> 00:07:20,180
when Master suddenly attacked

125
00:07:20,180 --> 00:07:21,140
and killed Lord Si Lianghong.

126
00:07:21,140 --> 00:07:21,740
What?

127
00:07:22,180 --> 00:07:23,020
What did you say?

128
00:07:23,540 --> 00:07:25,420
And someone from the Si Mansion

129
00:07:25,620 --> 00:07:27,220
said he saw it happen.

130
00:07:27,580 --> 00:07:28,580
Just now, the Elders of the council

131
00:07:28,580 --> 00:07:29,900
came to the academy
looking for the dean,

132
00:07:29,900 --> 00:07:31,260
but my master
said the dean had been away

133
00:07:31,260 --> 00:07:32,140
from the academy these days

134
00:07:32,140 --> 00:07:33,300
and left matters to him.

135
00:07:33,300 --> 00:07:34,580
Now it's even more difficult
to clear things up.

136
00:07:35,540 --> 00:07:36,380
Master couldn't have done

137
00:07:36,380 --> 00:07:37,340
such a thing.

138
00:07:37,700 --> 00:07:39,140
I'm going to Nanqin City now.

139
00:07:39,580 --> 00:07:40,580
We'll go with you.

140
00:07:40,940 --> 00:07:42,500
Master definitely wouldn't do this.

141
00:07:42,500 --> 00:07:44,260
Let's go and find a solution together.

142
00:07:44,460 --> 00:07:44,980
Let's go.

143
00:07:47,940 --> 00:07:48,700
Qingshi.

144
00:07:50,380 --> 00:07:51,260
Qingshi.

145
00:08:47,460 --> 00:08:48,500
- Miss Ji Rong.
- Miss Ji Rong.

146
00:08:50,260 --> 00:08:51,540
I sprained my ankle.

147
00:08:51,540 --> 00:08:52,820
Can you get me a doctor?

148
00:08:53,620 --> 00:08:54,140
Yes.

149
00:08:56,900 --> 00:08:58,300
It hurts so much.

150
00:08:58,700 --> 00:08:59,300
Miss,

151
00:08:59,500 --> 00:09:01,500
my family has
an ancestral massage technique

152
00:09:01,500 --> 00:09:02,780
specially for bruises and sprains.

153
00:09:03,020 --> 00:09:03,740
Do you want me

154
00:09:03,860 --> 00:09:05,100
to massage your foot?

155
00:09:05,940 --> 00:09:07,340
Come over and do it for me now.

156
00:09:07,700 --> 00:09:08,260
Alright.

157
00:09:15,140 --> 00:09:17,460
You're too gentle.

158
00:09:28,860 --> 00:09:30,020
Help!

159
00:09:30,020 --> 00:09:31,940
Help! Someone!

160
00:09:32,460 --> 00:09:32,940
Help!

161
00:09:32,940 --> 00:09:33,740
Rong.

162
00:09:33,900 --> 00:09:34,740
Help!

163
00:09:34,900 --> 00:09:36,460
Is there anyone?

164
00:09:39,140 --> 00:09:39,900
Rong.

165
00:09:41,740 --> 00:09:43,060
Rong, how are you?

166
00:09:43,300 --> 00:09:44,300
Where are you hurt?

167
00:09:44,940 --> 00:09:46,420
I'm fine, Qingshi.

168
00:09:47,060 --> 00:09:48,660
I didn't expect him to do this.

169
00:09:49,900 --> 00:09:50,420
Let's go.

170
00:09:50,700 --> 00:09:51,540
I'll take you home.

171
00:09:51,980 --> 00:09:52,460
Go.

172
00:09:58,820 --> 00:10:01,260
(Si Mansion)

173
00:10:02,180 --> 00:10:03,540
Please help

174
00:10:04,300 --> 00:10:05,420
get justice

175
00:10:06,380 --> 00:10:07,620
for my family.

176
00:10:11,060 --> 00:10:11,900
Is there any news

177
00:10:11,900 --> 00:10:13,380
about Chi Qiubai's whereabouts?

178
00:10:14,580 --> 00:10:15,940
I have given the order
to search for him.

179
00:10:15,980 --> 00:10:16,460
But

180
00:10:16,580 --> 00:10:17,900
there's been no news.

181
00:10:17,900 --> 00:10:19,780
How could Chi Qiubai

182
00:10:20,340 --> 00:10:21,300
do a cold-blooded thing

183
00:10:21,300 --> 00:10:23,300
like that?

184
00:10:23,460 --> 00:10:24,060
He's a disgrace

185
00:10:24,140 --> 00:10:25,780
to every Transcendent cultivator!

186
00:10:28,540 --> 00:10:29,500
We can't just jump

187
00:10:29,580 --> 00:10:30,220
to conclusions

188
00:10:30,220 --> 00:10:31,380
about how Si Lianghong died.

189
00:10:31,860 --> 00:10:32,860
Sikong Yang,

190
00:10:33,380 --> 00:10:35,340
are they the kind of disciplines

191
00:10:35,780 --> 00:10:37,300
your temple cultivates?

192
00:10:37,780 --> 00:10:38,540
Xueying,

193
00:10:38,740 --> 00:10:40,140
any new information?

194
00:10:40,780 --> 00:10:41,780
Everyone,

195
00:10:41,780 --> 00:10:42,420
we just found

196
00:10:42,420 --> 00:10:43,540
a memory bubble

197
00:10:43,540 --> 00:10:44,900
in Lord Si's room.

198
00:11:00,740 --> 00:11:01,500
Jingqiu,

199
00:11:02,580 --> 00:11:03,740
just like you,

200
00:11:03,820 --> 00:11:04,660
I am unwilling to believe

201
00:11:04,660 --> 00:11:06,300
it was done by our master.

202
00:11:07,660 --> 00:11:09,580
But my aunt has been so kind to me.

203
00:11:10,060 --> 00:11:11,900
I can't be biased because of this.

204
00:11:12,260 --> 00:11:13,140
Situ Hong,

205
00:11:13,540 --> 00:11:14,940
we'll know if it was our master's doing

206
00:11:15,220 --> 00:11:16,060
once we see it.

207
00:11:16,300 --> 00:11:17,260
The origin

208
00:11:17,260 --> 00:11:19,060
of this memory bubble is unclear.

209
00:11:19,300 --> 00:11:20,460
What if it was placed

210
00:11:20,460 --> 00:11:21,940
by the real culprit in my aunt's room

211
00:11:22,100 --> 00:11:23,500
to confuse us?

212
00:11:23,500 --> 00:11:24,620
Let him show it.

213
00:11:24,980 --> 00:11:26,380
We will judge

214
00:11:26,380 --> 00:11:27,740
whether it's true or not by ourselves.

215
00:11:47,940 --> 00:11:49,100
It was not Qiubai.

216
00:11:49,300 --> 00:11:50,140
Another person

217
00:11:50,140 --> 00:11:51,220
killed Si Lianghong.

218
00:11:53,020 --> 00:11:54,580
Can you recognize who this person is?

219
00:11:55,060 --> 00:11:56,340
With a silhouette alone,

220
00:11:57,060 --> 00:11:58,260
it's hard for me to tell.

221
00:11:58,620 --> 00:11:59,620
But at least

222
00:11:59,620 --> 00:12:00,420
we can confirm now

223
00:12:00,620 --> 00:12:01,620
Lord Si's death

224
00:12:01,820 --> 00:12:03,380
was not done by our master.

225
00:12:03,860 --> 00:12:04,980
Though the murderer

226
00:12:04,980 --> 00:12:05,860
was not Chi Qiubai,

227
00:12:06,020 --> 00:12:06,900
he still played

228
00:12:06,900 --> 00:12:08,020
the role of an accomplice.

229
00:12:08,420 --> 00:12:09,260
I will investigate

230
00:12:09,660 --> 00:12:11,180
this matter to the end.

231
00:12:12,460 --> 00:12:14,180
If the accomplice is really our master,

232
00:12:14,460 --> 00:12:16,340
he must be in Nanqin City now.

233
00:12:16,700 --> 00:12:17,860
Let's go find him.

234
00:12:18,260 --> 00:12:19,540
Then everything will be clear.

235
00:12:44,980 --> 00:12:46,420
Why did we come
to the Xueying Territory?

236
00:12:46,980 --> 00:12:47,820
I warned you

237
00:12:49,700 --> 00:12:51,180
not to target Xueying.

238
00:12:51,580 --> 00:12:53,140
Since I promised you before

239
00:12:53,140 --> 00:12:54,580
not to hurt him,

240
00:12:55,220 --> 00:12:56,660
I won't go back on my word.

241
00:12:57,900 --> 00:12:59,140
I'm asking you for help today.

242
00:12:59,140 --> 00:13:01,020
It has nothing to do

243
00:13:01,580 --> 00:13:03,140
with Dongbo Xueying.

244
00:13:06,380 --> 00:13:06,820
I need you

245
00:13:06,820 --> 00:13:08,740
to enhance the power
of this source stone

246
00:13:08,740 --> 00:13:09,420
and make it appear

247
00:13:09,420 --> 00:13:10,580
where it should be.

248
00:13:18,100 --> 00:13:19,020
What are you going to do?

249
00:13:19,220 --> 00:13:21,140
It's just a small source stone.

250
00:13:21,540 --> 00:13:23,220
You don't need to be so nervous.

251
00:13:23,900 --> 00:13:25,140
And did you forget?

252
00:13:25,740 --> 00:13:26,740
It was you who came to me

253
00:13:26,740 --> 00:13:28,220
to take Dongbo Xueying's place.

254
00:13:29,180 --> 00:13:30,980
Of course, it's not too late
to back out now.

255
00:13:31,220 --> 00:13:31,780
I can catch

256
00:13:31,780 --> 00:13:33,340
Dongbo Xueying back

257
00:13:33,700 --> 00:13:34,620
and let him do it.

258
00:14:22,540 --> 00:14:24,300
This is the key to the secret passage
in the back mountain.

259
00:14:24,460 --> 00:14:25,980
It's located in Dongbo Lie's tomb.

260
00:14:26,780 --> 00:14:27,580
Very good.

261
00:14:27,980 --> 00:14:29,060
You must find a way

262
00:14:29,060 --> 00:14:29,820
to stall them tomorrow.

263
00:14:30,100 --> 00:14:30,780
Don't let them

264
00:14:30,780 --> 00:14:31,780
ruin our plans.

265
00:14:32,220 --> 00:14:33,340
Yes, Third Priest.

266
00:14:40,260 --> 00:14:46,140
(Xueying Territory)

267
00:14:53,100 --> 00:14:54,060
Who's on duty?

268
00:14:54,780 --> 00:14:55,580
Commander Zong,

269
00:14:55,780 --> 00:14:56,340
you're back.

270
00:14:56,340 --> 00:14:57,180
Why are there so few guards

271
00:14:57,180 --> 00:14:58,020
on duty?

272
00:14:58,340 --> 00:14:59,700
I've only been away for a few days.

273
00:14:59,700 --> 00:15:00,900
How could you become so lax?

274
00:15:00,900 --> 00:15:01,980
Something's happened these days.

275
00:15:07,940 --> 00:15:08,660
Do your job well.

276
00:15:08,660 --> 00:15:09,420
- Yes.
- Yes.

277
00:15:09,420 --> 00:15:10,260
Hurry, hurry.

278
00:15:11,220 --> 00:15:11,900
Be more diligent.

279
00:15:11,940 --> 00:15:12,500
Alright.

280
00:15:13,380 --> 00:15:14,180
Commander Zong.

281
00:15:14,420 --> 00:15:15,100
Commander Zong.

282
00:15:15,980 --> 00:15:17,060
Miss Ji Rong,

283
00:15:18,020 --> 00:15:19,420
I heard about today's incident.

284
00:15:19,420 --> 00:15:20,620
I'm really sorry

285
00:15:20,620 --> 00:15:21,500
that my guard offended you.

286
00:15:22,140 --> 00:15:23,700
It's all in the past. It's fine.

287
00:15:25,380 --> 00:15:26,380
Miss Ji Rong,

288
00:15:27,660 --> 00:15:29,060
where are you going so late at night?

289
00:15:30,780 --> 00:15:31,820
I can't sleep,

290
00:15:31,820 --> 00:15:33,220
so I came out for some fresh air

291
00:15:33,780 --> 00:15:35,500
and by the way, to check on Qingshi.

292
00:15:35,500 --> 00:15:36,420
I hear

293
00:15:36,420 --> 00:15:37,780
he's still practicing outside so late.

294
00:15:39,060 --> 00:15:40,140
Uncle Zong Ling,

295
00:15:40,380 --> 00:15:41,660
I'm not feeling well.

296
00:15:41,660 --> 00:15:42,700
I'm going back.

297
00:15:55,940 --> 00:15:56,820
Rong?

298
00:16:00,700 --> 00:16:01,420
Why don't you rest

299
00:16:01,420 --> 00:16:02,260
in your room?

300
00:16:02,260 --> 00:16:03,220
I'll bring you breakfast

301
00:16:03,220 --> 00:16:03,820
later.

302
00:16:03,900 --> 00:16:04,580
Come.

303
00:16:04,580 --> 00:16:05,180
Come sit down.

304
00:16:06,580 --> 00:16:08,020
I'm not that delicate.

305
00:16:08,180 --> 00:16:08,940
Besides,

306
00:16:09,060 --> 00:16:10,100
doing something else

307
00:16:10,100 --> 00:16:11,380
is a good way to distract myself.

308
00:16:11,380 --> 00:16:13,140
Distracting yourself is predicated

309
00:16:14,060 --> 00:16:15,460
on having a good breakfast.

310
00:16:21,220 --> 00:16:22,500
What's the matter?

311
00:16:23,380 --> 00:16:23,940
Well...

312
00:16:24,820 --> 00:16:25,780
There are no outsiders.

313
00:16:25,940 --> 00:16:26,540
Just say it.

314
00:16:29,100 --> 00:16:29,980
Someone reports

315
00:16:29,980 --> 00:16:30,860
that there's a ghost
haunting the farmhouse.

316
00:16:30,940 --> 00:16:32,420
The tenants are afraid
to leave their homes,

317
00:16:32,420 --> 00:16:33,340
and complaints are everywhere.

318
00:16:33,540 --> 00:16:34,980
Our people can't control it,

319
00:16:35,140 --> 00:16:36,980
and they hope we can help.

320
00:16:37,460 --> 00:16:38,580
A ghost?

321
00:16:39,580 --> 00:16:41,660
I think it's just someone
who has ulterior motives.

322
00:16:41,940 --> 00:16:42,540
Well,

323
00:16:42,740 --> 00:16:43,900
I'll send them away.

324
00:16:44,580 --> 00:16:45,180
Wait a moment.

325
00:16:47,700 --> 00:16:48,820
Although

326
00:16:48,820 --> 00:16:49,740
it's a small matter for us,

327
00:16:50,340 --> 00:16:50,780
for those farmers,

328
00:16:50,780 --> 00:16:52,140
it is

329
00:16:52,140 --> 00:16:53,420
a big deal.

330
00:16:53,540 --> 00:16:54,140
We absolutely cannot

331
00:16:54,140 --> 00:16:55,500
refuse them so forcefully.

332
00:16:55,860 --> 00:16:56,940
Otherwise, everyone will think

333
00:16:56,940 --> 00:16:58,620
that Qingshi is a cold-hearted person.

334
00:17:00,700 --> 00:17:02,900
Sending people to guard the farmstead

335
00:17:03,260 --> 00:17:05,220
will not only reassure the people

336
00:17:05,380 --> 00:17:07,220
but also establish Qingshi's authority.

337
00:17:07,620 --> 00:17:08,660
Why not do it?

338
00:17:09,100 --> 00:17:10,220
Ji Rong makes sense.

339
00:17:10,780 --> 00:17:12,500
But our manpower...

340
00:17:12,500 --> 00:17:13,260
Uncle Tong San,

341
00:17:13,380 --> 00:17:14,700
let's settle this matter like this.

342
00:17:14,900 --> 00:17:15,580
Is that okay?

343
00:17:20,820 --> 00:17:21,420
Alright,

344
00:17:22,100 --> 00:17:23,260
let's do as Shi says.

345
00:17:23,260 --> 00:17:23,900
Go ahead.

346
00:17:25,700 --> 00:17:27,340
Yes, I'll go and do it right away.

347
00:17:33,140 --> 00:17:33,860
How is it?

348
00:18:21,020 --> 00:18:22,140
You also feel something's off.

349
00:18:27,500 --> 00:18:28,340
Master Sikong,

350
00:18:28,500 --> 00:18:29,460
what happened?

351
00:18:29,740 --> 00:18:31,460
The Demon Clan is going
to seize the Demon Well.

352
00:18:32,340 --> 00:18:34,180
A great battle between the Xia Clan
and the Demon Clan is imminent.

353
00:18:34,380 --> 00:18:35,540
You must be prepared.

354
00:19:09,500 --> 00:19:10,540
Moyang Chen.

355
00:19:21,260 --> 00:19:22,540
The Vanishing Technique.

356
00:19:25,180 --> 00:19:26,180
The Vanishing Technique

357
00:19:26,340 --> 00:19:27,580
is exclusive to the Si Family.

358
00:19:27,740 --> 00:19:28,820
It won't be shared outside.

359
00:19:37,500 --> 00:19:38,260
Tell me.

360
00:19:38,580 --> 00:19:39,620
Does your family

361
00:19:39,660 --> 00:19:41,380
have secret connections
with the Demon Clan?

362
00:19:41,580 --> 00:19:42,300
No,

363
00:19:43,380 --> 00:19:44,100
absolutely not.

364
00:19:44,300 --> 00:19:45,580
Then where did Moyang Chen

365
00:19:45,980 --> 00:19:47,780
learn the Vanishing Technique?

366
00:19:48,140 --> 00:19:48,980
I remember now.

367
00:19:49,180 --> 00:19:50,180
On the day my aunt died,

368
00:19:50,300 --> 00:19:52,180
someone sneaked into our mansion.

369
00:19:52,180 --> 00:19:53,380
At that time, our mansion was in chaos,

370
00:19:53,460 --> 00:19:55,060
and we had no time to deal with it.

371
00:19:55,580 --> 00:19:56,340
I guess

372
00:19:56,700 --> 00:19:57,940
that person must be Moyang Chen.

373
00:19:58,260 --> 00:19:59,220
He took advantage of the chaos

374
00:19:59,780 --> 00:20:01,420
and stole the manual
of the Vanishing Technique.

375
00:20:02,020 --> 00:20:03,220
Is this true?

376
00:20:04,380 --> 00:20:05,740
My family is loyal and righteous.

377
00:20:05,740 --> 00:20:07,300
We would never collude
with the Demon Clan,

378
00:20:07,300 --> 00:20:08,740
and we would never betray the Xia Clan.

379
00:20:09,820 --> 00:20:11,740
Even though you don't betray,

380
00:20:12,020 --> 00:20:13,860
you can't shirk the responsibility

381
00:20:13,940 --> 00:20:15,580
of being negligent in your duties.

382
00:20:15,700 --> 00:20:16,700
I am incompetent.

383
00:20:17,180 --> 00:20:18,620
I would like to stay in the Si Mansion

384
00:20:18,900 --> 00:20:20,100
and reflect on my mistakes.

385
00:20:20,620 --> 00:20:22,540
My aunt and cousin just passed away.

386
00:20:23,540 --> 00:20:25,500
I want to stay and rebuild my family

387
00:20:26,700 --> 00:20:28,220
so that my aunt and cousin

388
00:20:29,020 --> 00:20:30,060
can rest in peace.

389
00:20:37,940 --> 00:20:39,700
Is the ghost problem resolved?

390
00:20:39,900 --> 00:20:41,460
It's resolved. There's no ghost.

391
00:20:41,660 --> 00:20:42,940
It's just someone
causing trouble on purpose.

392
00:20:43,420 --> 00:20:44,340
Where is that person?

393
00:20:44,540 --> 00:20:45,700
Did you catch him?

394
00:20:45,980 --> 00:20:46,820
No, we didn't.

395
00:20:46,900 --> 00:20:48,300
I guess

396
00:20:48,300 --> 00:20:49,300
it's a neighborhood dispute
between villagers.

397
00:20:50,900 --> 00:20:52,900
Since the matter is resolved,

398
00:20:53,180 --> 00:20:54,940
why not reward the soldiers?

399
00:20:55,820 --> 00:20:57,580
The people are grateful to Qingshi.

400
00:20:57,580 --> 00:20:58,660
It helps him build up good fame.

401
00:20:59,060 --> 00:21:00,980
Qingshi rewards the soldiers.

402
00:21:00,980 --> 00:21:02,100
It helps him establish authority,

403
00:21:02,820 --> 00:21:04,700
and it can also boost morale.

404
00:21:04,860 --> 00:21:05,980
Three benefits in one move.

405
00:21:07,580 --> 00:21:09,100
Well said. Three benefits in one move.

406
00:21:09,100 --> 00:21:10,100
Then today,

407
00:21:10,100 --> 00:21:12,020
let's treat the soldiers well.

408
00:21:12,140 --> 00:21:13,060
Pass the order down.

409
00:21:13,420 --> 00:21:14,100
Yes.

410
00:21:19,900 --> 00:21:20,500
How is it?

411
00:21:20,500 --> 00:21:21,780
Is the tea I brewed good?

412
00:21:22,100 --> 00:21:23,060
Very good.

413
00:21:23,460 --> 00:21:24,460
Then drink some more.

414
00:22:17,780 --> 00:22:18,700
Come on.

415
00:24:11,540 --> 00:24:12,820
Knight Changfeng,

416
00:24:13,540 --> 00:24:14,820
it's up to you now.

417
00:24:19,580 --> 00:24:21,220
The location of the second Demon Well

418
00:24:21,220 --> 00:24:22,020
is found.

419
00:24:22,140 --> 00:24:24,380
The rare source stone is now in hand.

420
00:24:24,620 --> 00:24:25,620
But with only the power

421
00:24:25,620 --> 00:24:26,900
of the useless Black Armored Warriors,

422
00:24:26,900 --> 00:24:27,980
it's far from enough.

423
00:24:28,220 --> 00:24:29,020
The Demon Well

424
00:24:29,020 --> 00:24:30,940
is not so easy to break through.

425
00:24:30,940 --> 00:24:32,580
We must absorb and compress

426
00:24:32,580 --> 00:24:34,180
immense power

427
00:24:34,180 --> 00:24:37,140
to achieve the momentum
of thunderbolt penetration.

428
00:24:38,460 --> 00:24:39,620
What should we do?

429
00:24:39,820 --> 00:24:41,260
It's time for Chi Qiubai to do something

430
00:24:41,260 --> 00:24:42,220
for us.

431
00:24:42,620 --> 00:24:43,500
The rare source stone

432
00:24:43,500 --> 00:24:45,380
has extremely strong material energy.

433
00:24:45,380 --> 00:24:47,500
Let's combine it

434
00:24:47,500 --> 00:24:48,460
with the formidable energy

435
00:24:48,460 --> 00:24:49,620
within Chi Qiubai's body

436
00:24:49,620 --> 00:24:50,580
and then sacrifice

437
00:24:50,580 --> 00:24:52,500
the combination

438
00:24:52,500 --> 00:24:54,780
to the Demon Well.

439
00:24:56,860 --> 00:24:58,140
What exactly are you going to do?

440
00:24:58,140 --> 00:24:59,380
No need to ask.

441
00:24:59,980 --> 00:25:01,460
Just do as I instruct.

442
00:25:01,860 --> 00:25:03,220
Then I can't obey.

443
00:25:08,020 --> 00:25:09,380
Chi Qiubai,

444
00:25:09,980 --> 00:25:12,020
unless you have the Ancient Bloodline.

445
00:25:12,380 --> 00:25:13,060
Otherwise,

446
00:25:13,060 --> 00:25:15,020
the Soul Scouring Nail
will mess up your meridians,

447
00:25:15,300 --> 00:25:17,140
turning you
into someone totally unrecognizable.

448
00:25:18,660 --> 00:25:20,580
Of course, if you're obedient,

449
00:25:21,060 --> 00:25:22,460
your pain might not be so bad.

450
00:25:24,500 --> 00:25:26,220
I will never do anything

451
00:25:26,780 --> 00:25:28,540
harmful to the Xia Clan.

452
00:25:31,060 --> 00:25:32,380
I want to know

453
00:25:32,420 --> 00:25:34,060
what makes you

454
00:25:34,060 --> 00:25:35,340
so loyal to the Xia Clan.

455
00:25:36,260 --> 00:25:37,540
Is it faith?

456
00:25:38,180 --> 00:25:40,860
Faith is meant to collapse.

457
00:25:46,740 --> 00:25:48,220
You think these demon soldiers

458
00:25:48,460 --> 00:25:50,060
can kill me?

459
00:26:08,380 --> 00:26:08,940
Shi,

460
00:26:09,220 --> 00:26:10,420
I just felt some trembling

461
00:26:10,420 --> 00:26:11,260
outside the fort.

462
00:26:11,340 --> 00:26:12,300
I'll go take a look.

463
00:26:12,660 --> 00:26:13,300
Really?

464
00:26:13,300 --> 00:26:13,700
Alright.

465
00:26:14,220 --> 00:26:15,020
Qingshi,

466
00:26:15,020 --> 00:26:16,380
did you feel the shake?

467
00:26:17,900 --> 00:26:19,500
No, Uncle Zong.

468
00:26:19,700 --> 00:26:21,300
Maybe you're too happy today,

469
00:26:21,340 --> 00:26:22,500
and you're mistaken.

470
00:26:22,740 --> 00:26:23,380
No.

471
00:26:24,140 --> 00:26:25,820
The Demon Clan is rampant.

472
00:26:26,100 --> 00:26:27,180
It's better to be careful.

473
00:26:27,180 --> 00:26:27,860
I'll go for a moment.

474
00:26:28,140 --> 00:26:29,220
Or should I go?

475
00:26:29,580 --> 00:26:30,540
I'll go check it out.

476
00:26:31,420 --> 00:26:32,420
By the way,

477
00:26:32,980 --> 00:26:34,620
I want

478
00:26:35,620 --> 00:26:36,460
to go to the restroom.

479
00:26:38,620 --> 00:26:39,940
Now, Rong?

480
00:26:40,300 --> 00:26:41,420
I have to go really badly.

481
00:26:41,420 --> 00:26:42,460
I'll be back soon.

482
00:26:43,220 --> 00:26:44,260
Alright.

483
00:26:44,860 --> 00:26:45,540
Uncle Zong,

484
00:26:45,620 --> 00:26:46,780
let Rong go.

485
00:26:52,180 --> 00:26:53,540
Let's continue eating.

486
00:27:19,860 --> 00:27:20,940
Next,

487
00:27:20,940 --> 00:27:23,060
let the Great Demon God
descend on this world!

488
00:27:31,260 --> 00:27:32,060
(I need to inform)

489
00:27:32,060 --> 00:27:33,020
(the other Elders as soon as possible)

490
00:27:33,380 --> 00:27:35,060
(the Xueying Territory is in danger.)

491
00:27:40,580 --> 00:27:42,580
(Si Mansion)

492
00:27:46,860 --> 00:27:48,380
Xueying, do you mean

493
00:27:48,700 --> 00:27:50,380
Chi Qiubai was attacked

494
00:27:50,460 --> 00:27:52,020
by demons in the Xueying Territory?

495
00:27:52,260 --> 00:27:53,300
I'm clear
about the defensive capabilities

496
00:27:53,300 --> 00:27:54,340
of the Xueying Territory.

497
00:27:54,700 --> 00:27:55,540
If even my master

498
00:27:55,540 --> 00:27:56,740
can't handle this matter,

499
00:27:56,740 --> 00:27:58,340
it means the situation is very urgent.

500
00:27:58,940 --> 00:27:59,620
So

501
00:27:59,740 --> 00:28:00,780
Elders, please go

502
00:28:00,940 --> 00:28:02,220
with me to the Xueying Territory

503
00:28:02,220 --> 00:28:03,620
to protect my people.

504
00:28:03,980 --> 00:28:04,820
This Hexagonal Sword

505
00:28:04,820 --> 00:28:06,540
belongs to Knight Changfeng.

506
00:28:06,900 --> 00:28:09,340
But whether this is a trap

507
00:28:09,780 --> 00:28:11,420
is unclear.

508
00:28:12,020 --> 00:28:13,580
Moreover, Nanqin

509
00:28:13,580 --> 00:28:15,780
is already at war with the Demon Clan,

510
00:28:15,940 --> 00:28:17,500
and it hasn't ended yet.

511
00:28:17,740 --> 00:28:19,140
What if the Demon Well is breached

512
00:28:19,300 --> 00:28:21,380
after we leave?

513
00:28:21,660 --> 00:28:23,820
Our primary responsibility
is to eliminate demons.

514
00:28:24,220 --> 00:28:24,940
As long as

515
00:28:24,940 --> 00:28:25,980
there are demons here,

516
00:28:25,980 --> 00:28:27,260
I won't go anywhere else.

517
00:28:27,620 --> 00:28:29,580
Qiubai never parts with his sword.

518
00:28:29,820 --> 00:28:31,220
This sword wouldn't

519
00:28:31,220 --> 00:28:32,220
leave its owner for no reason.

520
00:28:32,340 --> 00:28:34,100
If the Xueying Territory is in danger,

521
00:28:34,100 --> 00:28:36,140
Qiubai would also be in danger.

522
00:28:36,660 --> 00:28:38,260
What exactly happened?

523
00:28:38,460 --> 00:28:39,620
Did Qiubai

524
00:28:39,740 --> 00:28:41,180
lose control of this sword?

525
00:28:41,500 --> 00:28:42,220
We should hurry over

526
00:28:42,220 --> 00:28:43,500
and take a look.

527
00:28:43,620 --> 00:28:46,100
Isn't it hasty to make a decision

528
00:28:46,340 --> 00:28:47,860
based on a sword alone?

529
00:28:48,100 --> 00:28:49,420
Besides, everyone has seen

530
00:28:49,700 --> 00:28:50,900
that this place is already engaged

531
00:28:50,900 --> 00:28:52,140
in battle with the Demon Clan.

532
00:28:52,260 --> 00:28:52,700
But...

533
00:28:52,700 --> 00:28:53,380
Xueying,

534
00:28:54,500 --> 00:28:55,620
you may leave now.

535
00:29:03,460 --> 00:29:04,060
How did the discussion go?

536
00:29:04,060 --> 00:29:05,260
Shall we set off now?

537
00:29:05,260 --> 00:29:06,220
They're still discussing.

538
00:29:06,340 --> 00:29:07,380
Time waits for no one.

539
00:29:07,380 --> 00:29:08,340
Let's discuss it later

540
00:29:08,340 --> 00:29:09,220
on the way.

541
00:29:09,220 --> 00:29:10,620
Right. We can't delay any longer.

542
00:29:10,940 --> 00:29:11,860
Every minute we waste

543
00:29:11,860 --> 00:29:12,660
puts our master and the people
of the Xueying Territory

544
00:29:12,660 --> 00:29:13,660
in more danger.

545
00:29:13,660 --> 00:29:15,020
If they don't go, we will.

546
00:29:15,140 --> 00:29:16,380
We don't need to rely on others.

547
00:29:16,380 --> 00:29:17,620
We can do it by ourselves.

548
00:29:18,220 --> 00:29:19,340
We'll go with you.

549
00:29:19,580 --> 00:29:20,140
Let's go.

550
00:29:20,700 --> 00:29:21,540
Wait a moment.

551
00:29:26,020 --> 00:29:26,740
Xueying,

552
00:29:26,900 --> 00:29:28,460
I understand your feelings.

553
00:29:28,500 --> 00:29:29,660
But how can you be sure

554
00:29:29,660 --> 00:29:31,340
this isn't a ploy to misdirect us?

555
00:29:32,900 --> 00:29:34,420
Qiubai is always cautious.

556
00:29:34,420 --> 00:29:35,940
His action this time is unusual.

557
00:29:36,180 --> 00:29:37,500
The situation is special now.

558
00:29:37,980 --> 00:29:39,020
The Demon Clan

559
00:29:39,020 --> 00:29:40,100
has attacked the Demon Well twice.

560
00:29:40,380 --> 00:29:42,340
If this is their trick,

561
00:29:42,580 --> 00:29:44,100
the consequences would be unimaginable.

562
00:29:44,340 --> 00:29:45,620
We must be on guard.

563
00:29:46,900 --> 00:29:47,700
Anyway,

564
00:29:48,100 --> 00:29:49,460
I'm going to the Xueying Territory now.

565
00:29:50,220 --> 00:29:51,860
It was the Si Family's fault back then

566
00:29:51,860 --> 00:29:53,100
that caused the Demon Well to fall.

567
00:29:53,300 --> 00:29:55,020
Now Chi Qiubai hasn't shown up,

568
00:29:55,020 --> 00:29:56,380
and only his sword shows up,

569
00:29:57,380 --> 00:29:58,260
which

570
00:29:58,260 --> 00:30:00,180
inevitably raises doubts.

571
00:30:00,900 --> 00:30:01,540
If this leads

572
00:30:01,540 --> 00:30:03,220
to the Demon Well being lost again,

573
00:30:03,660 --> 00:30:04,380
what will happen

574
00:30:04,620 --> 00:30:06,460
to the honor

575
00:30:06,660 --> 00:30:07,860
of the Water Daoist Temple?

576
00:30:16,820 --> 00:30:18,300
Great Demon God!

577
00:30:23,900 --> 00:30:25,180
It's getting late,

578
00:30:25,460 --> 00:30:26,420
and the soldiers need

579
00:30:26,420 --> 00:30:27,380
to get back to their duties.

580
00:30:27,940 --> 00:30:28,900
But

581
00:30:29,060 --> 00:30:31,060
everyone is enjoying
themselves right now.

582
00:30:31,780 --> 00:30:33,740
I haven't had enough fun yet, Qingshi.

583
00:30:33,740 --> 00:30:35,580
Rong, it's a bit late today.

584
00:30:35,580 --> 00:30:36,260
Let's do it next time.

585
00:30:36,380 --> 00:30:38,100
Next time, we'll do it with our master.
