I remember when...

my master gave this sword to me,

he said that The Dragon Sword is the best sword in the world.

I never thought The Transience Sword was not included in his words.

It seems that...

Master has given you a sword to equal mine.

Is this because my master was worried?

No, brother, he is not like that.

No, it is like that.

He didn't trust me!

Seven Swords

Episode 23 Seven Swords

So you want to take away her corpse...

Better kneel down to me quickly.

In your dreams!

Today, I will take your head.

Or the prince will think...

that I'm wasting his money.

Man Ningna.

After them!.

Stop!

Your Highness. He's getting away.

He sneaked into our camp in the middle of the night.

I think he is trying to prove something.

Maybe his relationship with Fei Hongjin is faltering.

It might be advantageous for us to let him stay alive.

Brother.

Man Ningna.

Man Ningna.

Man Ningna.

Brother. What happened?

When I entered the military camp, she was already dead.

Man Ningna.

Man Ningna.

Man Ningna.

Man Ningna.

Man Ningna.

Man Ningna.

Man Ningna.

Doesn't it seem unusually quiet today Chengbin?

Your Highness. Chu Zhaonan failed last night.

He will know that we are now prepared for his attack.

I don't think he will dare make a move.

It's normal for the camp to be quiet.

But there is still something strange.

What do you mean?

It's just my experience on the battlefield.

Each time before a war has broken out,

I've had this same feeling.

Last night, Chu Zhaonan sneaked in here...

Have you asked yourself why?

Judging by his demeanour,

he was very emotional,

he came here because he wanted to let off steam.

What do you think this means?

That they are very near us.

Very perceptive.

Thank you, Your Highness.

So you know what to do?

Yes. I'll tell the soldiers to prepare themselves.

Leader. Chu Zhaonan said that...

he would decapitate Duo Geduo.

But he only brought back...

his friend's wife's corpse.

Maga... Do you really think Chu Zhaonan would use Man Ningna's body as a cover?

Yes, I do.

Isn't it obvious?

Chu Zhaonan must be in cahoots with Duo Geduo.

And I also suspect...

that it was he who killed Man Ningna.

Don't make wild accusations if you don't have any proof.

You can suspect Chu Zhaonan's allegiance.

But I'm sure that Man Ningna's death had nothing to do with him.

Why?

Because he would never kill an unarmed woman.

Leader... Who can say...

I can.

Leader.

I don't care if he is a good or bad man,

he sneaked into the military camp,

Duo Geduo must be very prepared now.

Should we delay our plans for a while?

No.

We must make our move quickly...

because he sneaked into the military camp.

We must attack Duo Geduo tomorrow.

Will Chu Zhaonan and Yang Yunchong still join us in our plans?

The sun has risen. Go to bed now.

Yang Yunchong! Come here.

I'd like you to leave us now.

What?

There's no way I will.

We have to avenge Man Ningna's death.

The Eagles of the Desert will take care of it.

I have to avenge her death...

with my own hands.

And...

it will be difficult for the Eagles of the Desert...

to defeat the armies of Duo Geduo.

I don't want you to die in their hands.

In order to kill Duo Geduo,

I have already given up my life.

If I were to die...

the following day,

would you be as sad as he is now...

and avenge my death?

Don't say that.

I won't let you die.

I didn't before, and I won't now.

Although I hate you,

I don't want you to die either.

I made this vest myself.

It can withstand the bullets.

You will be safer...

if you wear it.

You should give this to someone else.

I can't have it.

What do you mean?

Fei Hongjin...

Don't treat me so nicely.

Nalan Minghui and I...

have been very intimate.

Why?

If my answer can really help,

I'm willing to answer any question.

I don't understand.

Let's put aside the affairs between us for now.

I only want to avenge Man Ningna's death now.

I will take revenge for her.

I will take revenge for everybody.

Even if I have to die.

Please give this to the leader.

Leader...

Yang Yunchong asked me to give this to you.

Stop.

Wait for my orders here.

Ailike. Come with me to take a look. - Yes.

Fei Hongjin is nearby.

Give my order...

Kill anyone who leaves his post without permission.

Yes Sir.

Leader. The soldiers have already positioned the cannons outside the camp.

Ailike. Find two people to stand guard here and report back when necessary.

Yes.

I didn't think their artillery would be so carefully planned.

It will be very difficult for the Eagles of the Desert to get near them.

This battle is very important.

Don't forget the words of the master.

I know.

Princess.

Fei Hongjin.

Have you considered my brother's plan?

How many times do I have to answer you?

Their artillery defences...

far exceed our expectations.

If we fight them face to face,

it's unlikely that we'll win.

I hope you will reconsider my plan.

Let me take Yang Yunchong as a hostage,

we'll fight Duo Geduo when we see him.

With the power of the Dragon Sword and the Transience Sword,

it will be easy for us to kill Duo Geduo and blow up the cannons.

When you hear an explosion in the camp,

that means our plan has been successful.

Then your people can begin to attack.

No way. It's too dangerous.

You don't have to worry about us.

As long as there is a chance of winning,

we are willing to risk our lives.

You may survive with this plan,

but Yang Yunchong will not.

What do you mean by that?

Every time you entered the military camp, you have managed to return alive and well.

I know that you have very good skills.

But no one can fight an army.

If you have already made a deal with Duo Geduo,

then the two swords will be in his hands.

That would be a huge threat to us.

Fei Hongjin.

I cannot risk my people's lives on the two of you.

All right. I'll go alone then.

Brother.

Don't worry.

I'll go alone.

I'll surrender with my sword.

I'll find a chance to kill Duo Geduo, and blow up the camp.

If you surrender your sword,

then you'll have no weapon.

How can you kill Duo Geduo then?

I have decided to do this...

because I am confident that I can.

You don't have a good chance of winning.

Forget your plan.

Listen to mine.

If you don't want to listen, please leave us immediately.

Even now...

you still don't have faith me?

We have to be clear with ourselves during crucial times like this.

I still don't know who is my friend and who is not.

During this battle...

I don't want to be killed by you...

instead of the soldiers.

Fei Hongjin. You're too much.

What are you talking about?

The battle is about to break out.

What we need is trust and cooperation.

Do you understand?

Brother. Your plan is really dangerous.

And it won't be easy to succeed.

Have you ever had trust in me?

I only trust myself.

What the hell happened to you?

Who turned you into such an insecure person?

In fact, I hope to share your worries.

Share your problems.

Don't tell me that.

All right. You can believe me or not,

it doesn't matter to me anymore.

Because you are the leader.

You have your worries.

However, I'm afraid that I will lose my life...

by trying to kill Duo Geduo.

I only hope that you can understand this.

I am going to do this today...

only because of you. Fei Hongjin.

If you still believe in me,

please wait for the explosions.

Brother.

Brother.

Brother.

Let's attack them directly.

With our swords,

I believe we can deal with Duo Geduo.

No. They are already very well prepared.

And...

Duo Geduo might not stay where he is.

If we attack them directly,

we might not find him.

Then it will be even more difficult to blow up the cannons.

So, we should implement our first plan.

You should surrender with your sword.

Then I'll sneak inside and attack with you.

Even if you can sneak into the camp,

you might not find out where Duo Geduo is.

Unless Nalan Xiuji can show you the way.

I know.

This is difficult for you.

Don't think too much. Wait for my good news.

Chu Zhaonan is here.

I want to see Duo Geduo.

Open the entrance. Quickly.

Yes.

Bring me the Dragon Sword.

Yes.

Not just anybody can handle the Dragon Sword.

Tell Duo Geduo to come here.

Silence!

Chu Zhaonan... How dare you come here and surrender with your sword?

If you're not surrendering, then you must be attacking us.

How dare you do this?

Take it!

Your Highness.

Chengbin. What do you think?

Your Highness... Chu Zhaonan is willing to surrender his own sword,

that means he is very sincere.

However, this is a crucial moment.

I am still suspicious about it.

I really want to know...

what he is up to.

Your Highness... You should be very careful.

Let him in.

Chu Zhaonan... You have been an enemy of the government.

Why have you suddenly surrendered yourself to me?

Isn't this what you wanted?

You're right. This is what I wanted.

But you picked such a crucial moment,

aren't you afraid that I will be suspicious?

So what?

Here I am, and that's that.

Yang Yunchong was willing to let you go?

If I really want to go,

who can stand in the way?

We have been brothers for ten years,

now we're parted.

If we meet again one day,

we will become enemies then.

What's wrong with that?

You are quite right.

Excellent!

Wine!

Xiuji... Will you drink with us?

I have shooting pains in my chest today.

I cannot drink any wine.

Enjoy yourselves.

Leave us then.

Yes.

Leader.. Yang Yunchong has disappeared.

He left a message saying that he has gone to help Chu Zhaonan.

Convey the order to approach the cannons.

Yes.

Chu Zhaonan... You've surrendered yourself to me...

I won't say anything meaningless.

I know your skills very well.

Tell me your conditions.

Ten thousand catty of gold.

You must know that I wouldn't carry...

so many gold pieces on the battlefield.

Making this condition...

under such circumstances...

Are you trying to delay our proceedings?

You told me to set my condition,

I'm simply telling you what it is.

You are right.

How about this?

Go back and work undercover beside Fei Hongjin for now.

When we go back to the capital city,

I'll make this official and pay you the gold pieces.

What do you think?

All right. I agree to it.

Princess.

Princess... How are you?

Princess... I want to ask you a question.

Have you really decided...

to marry the prince?

I don't know.

Princess... That person...

Can you let him go?

So what if I cannot?

I finally understand that...

I had not thought everything through before.

Spring... Sit down.

Do you know that...

I didn't think I would come back before.

Where were you going?

Mount Heaven.

But why? Why did you...

Because I suddenly became suspicious of something.

What was that?

Everything.

From what I hear to what I see.

Who's there?

How about the second condition?

The head of Qiu Dongluo...

and ten catty of dynamite.

I can understand that you would want the head of Qiu Dongluo.

But why the dynamite?

I have to blow up two of your cannons.

Two cannons?

You're asking too much.

This is a lot to ask I know.

But, if it can guarantee Fei Hongjin's trust in me,

and the subsequent eradication of the Eagles of the Desert,

would it be worth it?

You should know the answer to this.

I'll go out and keep watch.

This is very dangerous, don't you know that?

Minghui.

I've come to take you away.

Where to? Mount Heaven?

By doing this,

we can get away...

from all the nonsense happening here.

There will only be the two of us.

Right?

Right. We'll leave immediately...

when everything is settled here.

What is there to settle?

Minghui. This is very dangerous.

A war is about to break out.

You have to leave this place now.

War? Why a war?

My brother is with Duo Geduo now.

He is in grave danger. I have to save him.

You mean...

you have to help your brother...

to kill our people, right?

Minghui.

Yang Yunchong.

You have deceived me.

You have lied to me.

Minghui.

Women or swords...

Which is more important to you?

It's none of your business.

I guess it will be the sword.

It's such a powerful sword.

What is its name?

The Dragon Sword.

The Dragon Sword.

Without this sword,

will you become powerless?

Or, whoever holds the Dragon Sword...

will become Chu Zhaonan?

Heroes choose their swords.

But swords choose their heroes too.

In this whole wide world,

there's only one Chu Zhaonan.

Without Chu Zhaonan,

the Dragon Sword is no longer the Dragon Sword.

Heroes choose their swords. Good.

When you were saving Fei Hongjin,

you were willing to risk your life.

Now, you suddenly surrender to me.

Are you pretending to surrender to me?

With this sword in your hand,

I'm like a piece of meat on a chopping board.

I don't know how to pretend to surrender.

However, Your Highness.

If you insist that I'm pretending,

There's nothing I can say.

Believe me or not,

determine for yourself.

Leader.

There's still no signal from Chu Zhaonan.

Should we wait longer?

Don't wait anymore.

Yes.

Chu Zhaonan.

It seems that you well-being...

is no longer a consideration...

of Fei Hongjin anymore.

If you are really surrendering to me,

I will ensure that the government...

will make you wealthy and powerful.

If you are just pretending,

then there will be no way out for you.

There were drugs in the wine that you drank.

Xiuji... Will you drink with us?

I have shooting pains in my chest today.

I cannot drink any wine.

Within an hour, you won't be able to move.

Chu Zhaonan... When Fei Hongjin sees you,

whether you are pretending or not,

it will become the truth.

Fire!

Minghui, there's no time to explain. Come on!

I won't go.

Even if I have to die,

I will die with my father.

Don't you understand?

This is crucial battle. Someone is bound to lose this battle.

Do you understand?

Yang Yunchong.

It's you who betrayed our vows.

You betrayed me. I hate you.

Minghui.

Get out!

Wait for me.

Give the order to reform.

200 spears stay in the middle.

Firearms attack from one side.

200 archers...

wait on a different floor.

Yes. Let's go!

Brother! Brother!

It's been an hour already.

Better make my move.

Maga!

You... You traitor.

During this battle...

I don't want to be killed by you...

instead of the soldiers.

You traitor.

Fei Hongjin... Why don't you believe me?

Brother!

Yunchong.

Ke Limu. Ke Limu!

Ke Limu.

Yunchong!

Let those two people go.

Kill all the others.

Yunchong... Let's go!

Leader!

Ailike!

Ailike!

I'll kill you!
