Episode 35

You're plotting against me

because you've been bribed by Zuo Lengchan!

You can kill me if you want to.

But I'll never surrender!

Listen, Tianmen!

The headmaster of Mount Tai Sect has ordered you to drop your sword!

Are you going to obey Founder Dongling's final words?

Bullshit!

Who said you're the headmaster of our sect?

If you don't obey my order you're going to die a terrible death!

My disciples!

We're going to fight til the end today!

Fight til the end and never give up...

I've seen many heroes in this world.

But I've never seen a creep that has broken his promise so quickly.

You've already passed the role of headmaster to someone else

but then you quickly denied your own words.

Tianmen.

I guess you're not as trustworthy as your name suggests.

You might as well be called Bullshit!

Our... our sect's affairs are none of your business!

What I think is wrong becomes my business.

Today's the day of unification for the Five Mountain Sword Alliance.

But you're being a spoiled sport by yelling and screaming nonsense!

A hero shouldn't use hidden weapons!

Whoever is rude to me I'll beat up his master!

Headmaster Zuo!

You shouldn't have asked someone like Qinghai Yijiao to kill Tianmen!

What a joke!

I didn't know him at all.

Why would you say I've asked him to come here?

Brother Yu Jizhi.

Congratulations on becoming Mount Tai Sect's headmaster.

What's your opinion on the unification of the Five Mountain Sword Alliance?

It's only for the good of our sect for all five sects to merge.

Headmaster Zuo, as the head of Mount Tai Sect

I totally agree with the unification.

If anyone else tries to object against it

then they'd become Mount Tai Sect's enemy!

Three of the five sects have already agreed with the unification.

The late headmaster of North Mount Heng Sect, Master Nun Dingyi

had previously talked to me about the unification a few times.

She was strongly supportive of it.

That's a total lie Headmaster Zuo!

Before our master passed away

she was absolutely against the unification.

Your master was the most outstanding person within the five sects.

If she was still alive today

she'd definitely be the head of the Five Mountain Sect.

I wouldn't say that Headmaster Zuo!

That's right!

How did they get here?

Master Nun Dingyi did want to nominate you to be the headmaster.

What's your name, Brother?

I'm Fairy Tao Gen and they're my brothers.

Master Nun Dingyi once said to me

that it's fine if the five sects remain separate.

But if they do unite

then they must get Mount Song Sect's Headmaster Zuo to be its headmaster.

- Do you believe that? - That's right!

If I'd known they're going to say this

I should have just killed them!

Master Nun Dingyi was just being polite.

I'm certainly not good enough for it.

Wait!

I haven't finished yet.

Then Master Nun Dingyi said

that Headmaster Zuo is both sly and ruthless.

If he does become the headmaster of the unified sect

then the female disciples of North Mount Heng Sect will be in big trouble.

That's why she thinks it's best for us to be the headmaster instead!

Master Nun Dingyi also said

that if we can't be the headmaster of the unified sect

then the sect will never be successful and glorious.

Good one!

Who has ever heard such words from Master Nun Dingyi?

Every disciples of North Mount Heng Sect heard her!

Sister Yihe, am I right?

That's right, Headmaster Zuo.

Then who heard my master's support for the unification as you said?

That's right, who?

That day Master Nun Dingyi also said

that there can only be one headmaster for the unified sect.

But since we've got six brothers

which one of us can be the headmaster?

I want to be... pick me!

She also said if the Five Mountain Sword Alliance unifies

but Mount Hua, Mount Song, Mount Tai

as well as North and South Mount Heng...

they're not in the same place!

Since that Zuo... Zuo Lengchan...

he's not God.

How is he supposed to put those five mountains together?

Why don't the five of us take charge of one mountain each?

The leftover one can be the headmaster!

Our parents must have been psychics.

They actually gave birth to six sons.

Not one more and not one less.

Good on them!

Headmaster Linghu.

You're the headmaster of North Mount Heng Sect.

How can you let them say such foolish things in front of so many heroes?

They're used to being casual and straightforward.

But they don't tell lies.

I think what they said about Master Nun Dingyi's words

is more trustworthy than the bullshit that's said by other hypocrites.

Looks like your sect's going to be the odd one out of all five sects.

We will never be the odd one out.

Mount Hua Sect's headmaster Mr. Yue Buqun used to be my master.

Although I now belong to North Mount Heng Sect

but our sects will definitely be working hand-in-hand.

In other words, you'll be supporting Mr. Yue, right?

That's right!

Mr. Yue.

I'm so glad to see what a grateful person Headmaster Linghu is!

Whether you're supportive of the unification or not

Headmaster Linghu will support your decision.

Throughout Mount Hua Sect's 200 years of history

I've witnessed the tragedy of conflict between the Sword and Chi factions

where best friends fought against one another.

It still hurts me to think about it today.

That's why...

rather for the martial art world to have different sects

it'd be better to have a unified sect.

For the past hundreds of years

so many innocent lives have been lost

in battles within the martial arts world.

Those battles were caused by disagreement among the various sects.

That's why I thought

if the different sects no longer exist in our martial art world.

If becoming one big family

where we're all brothers and sisters

then such bloody tragedies will never happen again.

No more heroes will lose their lives at such a young age.

There will be no more widows and orphans in our world.

Very well said, Headmaster Yue!

That's why...

I think the unification will be for the good of the martial arts world.

It should be the role model for all.

It should be marked as a major event of the martial arts world!

That certainly makes sense!

In other words, Mount Hua Sect agrees with the unification?

That's right.

Headmaster Linghu used to be a disciple of Mount Hua Sect for 20 years.

After he left my sect

he still treasured our relationship and asked to come back to my sect many times.

If the five sects unify into one then his biggest wish would be fulfilled.

Congratulations for being in the same sect again, Mr. Yue and Headmaster Linghu.

What a happy occasion!

Headmaster Linghu, Yue Buqun has betrayed you.

Brother, what should we do?

We don't have any choice.

Headmaster Linghu must become the head of the unified sect.

Big Bro, something's wrong.

What's wrong?

We were meant to be the headmaster of North Mount Heng Sect.

That's right!

We only let Linghu Chong be the headmaster out of politeness.

But he must take revenge for Master Nun Dingyi.

Yeah, the killer must be among the Five Mountain Sword Alliance.

His name's probably Zuo 'something.'

Now that Linghu Chong's part of the Five Mountain Sword Alliance

he's in the same sect as that Zuo 'something.'

Then how can he take revenge?

Yes, if he can't take revenge

then he can't be the headmaster of North Mount Heng Sect.

In that case, he can't decide whether North Mount Heng Sect

will join the Five Mountain Sword Alliance, right?

That's right!

They normally seem so foolish

but they're actually making sense today.

Stop mucking around you six idiots!

You better get out of here!

How strange!

We didn't want to come.

You invited us to come!

Since you're not going to let us join in...

Come on, disciples of North Mount Heng!

Let's go back to North Mount Heng with your headmaster!

Headmaster Linghu.

A swordsman should keep his word.

Since you just said you'll agree with Mr. Yue's decision

you're not going to break your word, right?

Chong.

I've always treated you well.

Your headmistress treats you like her own son.

Don't you want to make up with us?

Master, Headmistress that's what I've always wanted.

Since you've agreed with the unification

I wouldn't dare say no.

But as for the revenge for Master Nun Dingyi...

After we become one, your sect's business will be my business.

Chong, don't worry.

I'll never let the killer off the hook.

If I don't take revenge for Master Nun Dingyi within three years

then everyone present today can call me a despicable creep.

Mount Tai, South Mount Heng, Mount Hua, North Mount Heng, and Mount Song.

All five sects have always agreed with the unification.

From today on

these five separate sect names will no longer appear in the martial art world.

All disciples of the five different sects

will come under the new Five Mountain Sect.

Congratulations, Headmaster Zuo!

Congratulations.

If everyone nominates us to become the new alliance's headmaster

then it'd be our honor!

Exactly!

Although it's a big responsibility

we'll do our best to serve the martial arts world.

Headmaster Linghu, these six maniacs keep interrupting us.

Aren't you going to stop them?

Zuo Lengchan just said the separate sect names no longer exist now.

By calling him 'Headmaster Linghu'

you're accepting him as the headmaster of the new sect, right?

Although he may not be as good as the six of us

but I guess we can do with that.

All right, done!

Linghu Chong will be the new sect's headmaster.

No, that's not what I mean...

Excuse me, everyone.

Headmaster Zuo has always been the

chief of the Five Mountain Sword Alliance.

He's been heading the five sects for a long time.

Naturally, he should be the headmaster of the new sect.

If somebody else takes it from him

then who would agree?

No, that's not it!

Today's unification should be an event to celebrate the birth of a new sect.

That's right! So we should also have a new headmaster.

Someone new!

Exactly!

If Zuo Lengchan continues to be the headmaster

then what's the point of the unification?

Why don't we take turns?

One day each so we'll all get a turn.

The role of headmaster must be fulfilled

by someone who's wise and well-respected.

- This way... - I know!

Master Fangzheng is exactly that.

Master Fangzheng is certainly highly respected by us all.

But he's our VIP guest today

and is not part of the Five Mountain Sect.

He's not related to our sect.

Why is he unrelated?

Shaolin Sect's on Mount Shaoshi

and Mount Song Sect's on Mount Taishi.

Both mountains belong to Mount Song.

Who said Shaolin Sect's unrelated to Mount Song and the Five Mountain Sect?

Hey, how about this?

Let's have a competition.

Whoever beats us, Master Chongxu and Master Fangzheng

then he can be the headmaster.

How's that?

That's very reasonable!

Who wants to fight the six of us?

You Six Monsters of Peach Valley!

Let me be the first to fight you!

Since we belong to the same alliance

should we really fight against one another?

That's right! You've already made Tianmen die right here.

Looks like you're very good at killing your fellow brothers.

But since you've accepted 3000 taels of gold

and four women from someone

of course you must do your job.

Today, I'm going to see what you've got!

Are you for real?

Big Bro!

Zuo Lengchan!

You were the one who gave him the gold and women.

Now you've destroyed the evidence!

That's right!

What a joke! We were just having a joke with him!

If I had not helped you just then

you would have ripped him up into four pieces!

Was that really why you got involved?

How did they suddenly become so smart?

He's scared that Yu Jizhi would spill the beans.

That's why he cut off his leg so that he can't run away.

But he can still talk, can't he?

So I think Mount Tai Sect better protect Yu Jizhi.

Otherwise, Zuo Lengchan will go and kill him tonight.

He won't run away if he's dead.

Also... the dead don't talk.

I've got the most suitable person in mind.

If the wise Mr. Yue isn't good enough to be the headmaster of the new sect

then who else is?

That's right! Let Mr. Yue be the headmaster!

No! We should still have a competition.

That's right! Whoever wins...

- Then he'll be the headmaster! - That's right. That's right.

Competition... competition...

A competition... is not a bad idea either.

But the idea of our unification is to eliminate conflicts, right?

How about this?

Let's not hurt anyone during our competition.

Competitors must step back once the winner is decided.

There's to be strictly no killing.

That's certainly very hard to do.

So what you mean is...

An open fight on Fengshan Platform! Each sect will show its best skills.

Let's do just that.

The competition between fellow members of the Five Mountain Sect

will now begin!

Competition...

Stop!

Who would like to fight against me Yu Inzhi from Mount Tai?

Yue Lingshan from Mount Hua. would like to spar with you.

Are you mad at me because I didn't come to your wedding?

My father knows the sword skills of every sect very well.

Today I'll fight you with Mount Tai's sword skill.

Does a lady also want to become the headmaster?

Uncle Zuo.

If you can beat us using sword skills from the four other sects

then we'd accept you as our headmaster.

Otherwise, however strong your Mount Song sword skill may be

it's only one type of sword skill.

You're just one among the others.

Lingshan.

You must be overestimating yourself.

You're actually using Mount Tai's sword skill against Senior Yu Inzhi.

You're really looking for trouble.

If Mr. Yue has really mastered the sword skills from all five sects

then it'd be the first time that we've heard of such a thing.

I'll look forward to seeing your Mount Tai sword skill!

Headmaster Linghu, did you teach her those skills?

Let me see your South Mount Heng sword skill.

Uncle Mo, please spare me.

I've only learned the basics of your sword skill.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Let's begin.

Lingshan!

How dare you!

Brother Mo has already spared your life.

How can you do that to him?

Please forgive my daughter's immaturity, Brother Mo.

Having lasted that long against me

she's not bad at all.

Little Sister.

Since you've beaten the headmasters of the last two sects

you've certainly got great sword skills.

But you still haven't convinced us.

I wonder if you can fight me using North Mount Heng sword skill.

Headmaster Linghu, I know you have great sword skills.

Let's see who's better today.

Little Sister.

You've always won against me before.

Come on!

Chong Ling Sword Skill?

Little Sister.

Chong!

- Headmaster! - Elder Brother!

Elder Brother!

Yue Lingshan!

Yilin, no!

Headmaster Linghu, are you okay?

I'm fine.

Little Sister.

Your sword skills are so outstanding that I accept my defeat!

Pingzhi?

Pingzhi... Pingzhi...

Mother.

My daughter has already beaten three headmasters using their sword skills.

What a rare sight!

Miss Yue has mastered the sword skills of all three sects.

It's certainly not easy to do so.

If she can take the sword from my hand using Mount Song's sword skill

then Mr. Yue will deserve to become the new headmaster.

To be honest

how could my daughter's skills compare to yours?

For the many years that we've known each other

it's long been considered that our sword skills are similarly good.

We've never ever had a competition.

That's why I've always wanted to test it out with Brother Zuo.

Brother Yue, you're renowned for your name as 'Noble Sword.'

You're certainly a gentleman.

But as for your sword skill

actually not many people have witnessed it before.

Today, at the presence of all heroes of the martial art world

why don't you show us what you've got, Brother Yue?

Brother Zuo. In that case, I'll do my best.

Listen up, disciples of Mount Hua!

This is a fair challenge with Headmaster Zuo

with no personal grudges.

If he kills me by accident

you're not to have anything against Headmaster Zuo

and must not take revenge against Mount Song Sect.

Otherwise, the harmony among the alliance would be destroyed.

Here's your sword, Headmaster!

Real Icy Energy?

So it's also one of your sect's skills?

Yes, I invented it myself!

He's learned the Sunflower Manual Skill!

Yet another Dongfang Bubai.

Uncle!

Headmaster Zuo!

Headmaster Zuo.

Now that you've become a disabled person

let's not go any further.

I just want to know

whether you can still be the headmaster of the new alliance or not.

I'm not blind!

Who said so?

Yue Buqun, you sly bastard!

Come and fight me if you dare!

I'm not blind... I'm not blind!

Are you satisfied now?

I get it now.

You've put in so much effort for this day.

But what I don't understand is

why you had to make Chong lose everything

and cause him so much pain?

The martial arts world is a bloody battle.

That's the case for everyone and Linghu Chong's no exception.
