[Su Yu]

[Episode 17] [He's distant even when he's in front of me]

Chen'er, you must not marry that female demon.

Mother, this female demon is ugly and morally corrupted,

but if I don't go to hell, who will?

Mother, don't worry. I can handle this.

But she killed your father.

I am aware.

This female demon is ruthless. If I don't marry her,

the martial arts world will be stuck in a windstorm of a blood bath.

I'm willing to set aside this grudge for the martial arts world.

But the noble blood that runs through our Mu veins

will be tainted by this female demon.

As for you, your handsome looks

will be tarnished by her.

Mother, I have always felt that my outstanding appearance

is the least worth mentioning of my advantages.

But I didn't expect that the least worth mentioning of my advantages

could save Qianyun Mountain Pavilion and even the whole martial arts world.

I'm willing to give up this benefit to save the multitude of people.

Chen'er, Chen'er! Chen'er!

Brother Shen, what's wrong?

I didn't think you would still be alive.

What happened at the bottom of the valley?

I never thought there would be a stream at the bottom of the valley. That's how I survived.

But I couldn't find the way out and couldn't wait forever for Young Master to come to save me.

Then how did you get out of there?

There were many wild animals and mosquitoes. Fortunately, I had the Yongying Heart Sutra on me.

I followed the techniques, fighting and killing non-stop.

Not only did it solve my food problem, but I also mastered the Heart Sutra.

I used the Qinggong technique to escape the valley floor.

It was tough for you.

Brother Shen, many things are not like what you think,

either from what you saw or what you heard.

What are you referring to?

Never mind. It's nothing.

No matter what, come back to Youyou Valley with me.

Let's talk about the other stuff later.

Brother Shen. Brother Shen.

I didn't expect someone else to be in the same realm as me.

Brother Shen is a kindred spirit

in chivalry.

But I'm the head of the martial arts community.

Taming this female demon should be my responsibility.

Tame me? We haven't seen each other for such a long time. Tonight, will he...?

Xiao Yu, there are many things waiting to be done in Youyou Valley now.

We need you there as the Valley Master.

Brother Shen, I already decided that I will never go back to Youyou Valley again.

Stop regarding me as the Valley Master.

Xiao Yu.

Please go back.

I can leave but I hope you will consider this carefully.

If you come back, you will still be our Valley Master.

Brother Shen, do visit our Qianyun Mountain Pavilion again when you have the time.

We will be merry and drink,

and discuss being heroes.

Brother Shen, goodbye.

As for you, come with me.

It's so late and he pulled me into his bedroom.

Is it possible that...?

She's actually sitting on my bed?

Never mind. For the sake of cleansing this female demon, I'll bear with it.

He's...removing my make-up for me before we go to bed.

I didn't expect him to be so considerate now.

After removing all her embellishments, she's still so beautiful.

She's indeed a born vixen. There's still one last step.

He's even washing my hands before bed?

He's become more and more tidy.

Based on your perfect performance,

I will allow you to start.

Start? It has already ended.

What "ah"?

It looks like you still don't understand my well thought out intentions.

I cleansed the scum from your face and body for you.

I also cleansed your blood-stained hands.

You...are not going to...?

Shame. I merely wanted to purify your soul.

Okay then. Tonight's purification has been completed.

I'm going to sleep. You can go back now.

You...

Mu Juechen, you have gone overboard.

This female demon is deep-rooted in evil.

It looks like I need to persist

and find an alternative.

Are you saying Brother Juechen doesn't remember me?

He lost his memories after you fell off the cliff.

Not only did he not recognize us, he didn't even recognize Madam Mu.

Madam Mu summoned all the renowned physicians of the pavilion to treat him but he couldn't be treated.

She cried for several days because of this.

Not only does he not recognize us,

he has changed totally. Do you think he's lost his sanity?

I promise you that

I will become

a virtuous martial arts head who's loved by everyone.

This is what you said. Or else,

I will be the first to oppose you.

Fine. I will keep my words.

This is not right. He still remembers our pact.

By the way, on this subject, it's really strange.

He says that he keeps dreaming about a young woman.

We thought he was talking about you,

but why didn't he recognize you yesterday?

I think that guy doesn't know how to face me.

Hence, he's pretending to have lost his memories.

Pretending to have lost his memories?

No wonder

he kept saying he couldn't stand people leaving him.

- He couldn't bear it? - Yes.

I fear he was too traumatized when you told him you wanted to leave in the past.

He used to kick his subordinates out from the manor for no reason.

He's entirely different now.

He treats his subordinates very well now. He's so approachable.

When I see that smile of his, I'm terrified into a panic.

That's right.

He must be pretending then.

Watch how I force out his real self.

I fear Dao De Jing won't be enough to cleanse this female demon.

I need to add the Analects of Confucius and the Jingang Sutra.

No, I should also include Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio (a Qing dynasty book of stories). It's safer.

Brother Juechen.

Don't do anything disorderly.

This is Qianyun Mountain Pavilion.

What's wrong? Are you afraid?

I'm the head of the martial arts community.

Why would I be afraid of a female demon like you?

Have you recalled anything?

Looking at these evil pair of hands,

I can only remember

endless fresh blood.

Let's see how long you can keep pretending.

Since you can't remember anything,

let me help you.

Mother was right. This female demon is indeed lusting after my masculine sexuality

and tarnish me by converting me to her demonic ways.

I must not cower in this moment.

I must use my imposing manner and keep her under control. Then, this female demon will retreat to avoid defeat.

Excellent. You are finally not avoiding this.

This female demon is insane.

In order to dominate me, she has stopped restraining herself.

No, I must protect my dignity.

Are you going to keep pretending?

[Dao De Jing]

Hold your tongue.

This female demon is indeed full of tricks.

A well-behaved gentleman like me was almost seduced by her.

Fortunately, my engagement to her will keep her by my side.

If she's released, who knows how much disaster she would inflict on thousands of innocent people.

I didn't expect that the Dao De Jing,

which was written with the purest intentions, couldn't even put down this girl demon.

It seems I still don't have enough ability. I haven't fully understood the essence of the Dao De Jing.

I need to completely focus on my learning.

What a pity.

You forced him into an impasse and almost succeeded.

This Mu Juechen is too wretched.

I even replicated the move he used last year to make me give in at Siku Pavilion.

And the result? He pretended not to remember anything at all.

Xiao Yu, what do you plan to do next?

Bad news.

Master has gone into seclusion to practice self-denial.

He won't come out for anything.

See? He's avoiding me.

He doesn't know how to face me.

I'm going to go there now and expose him.

Xiao Yu, don't be anxious. Listen to me.

Old Master used that cave to practice self-denial in seclusion. The stone door is very strong.

If he doesn't willingly come out, no matter how advanced your martial arts is, you still won't be able to get through.

That's right. If you want Master to come out from the cave,

you must use your wits instead of force.

Wits?

Fine then. I have lots of methods.

[Prosper]

I win.

Who did this? Show yourself.

You are the Four Villains, right?

Silly little girl, you know who we are and

and you still dare to create trouble here? What's your name?

Gongshu Yu.

I was wondering.

You are the female demon who killed the head of the martial arts community.

It's just as well that a female demon like you encountered us today.

In less than three seconds, we will...

Spare our lives!

Master, something bad happened!

Master, something bad happened!

Listen to how you are panicking.

What did I teach you?

You must keep calm when confronted with anything.

Be perfectly composed.

Master, there's big trouble.

Little Dizi is at Tianlai Tavern with the Four Villains to set up an evil cult.

Master, what's going on?

Why are you all lit up?

Don't panic.

This is the radiance of a saint.

I have fully comprehended the Dao De Jing.

This female demon is no longer my rival.

I will disband this evil cult

on the same day it was established.

[Tianlai Tavern] Come in.

Please, come in.

Eat this.

This is Tianlai Tavern's income over half a year, a hundred thousand taels.

How generous.

Tianlai Tavern is yours now. You are the boss and what you say goes.

Thank you.

It's already noon. Why isn't Young Master here yet?

Did Big Pig Trotters see through your scheme?

Impossible.

Mu Juechen thinks he's a virtuous ruler

cares for the people in the kingdom. He will definitely come.

Cult Leader, Mu Juechen is here.

Hurry.

E Xin (Disgusting), you can start now.

Cult Leader, it's E Xin (Vicious). (Same character but slight difference on intonation gives different meanings)

I know, E Xin (she still called him Disgusting).

As long as you are happy.

Second Older Sister.

Dear people of Tianyou City,

today, we celebrate the founding date of our evil cult.

Our leader is happy today. If you join our evil cult and become a follower today,

not only will you have free meals and board at Tianlai Tavern from here on out,

you will also be receive a bonus of one hundred taels of silver for joining.

Interested parties can come up here to sign up and receive your bonus.

Queue up.

This female demon is such a schemer.

She's actually using money to lure people into joining her evil cult. She's beyond salvation.

Master, didn't you already cleanse her?

You must think of a solution immediately. You can't let Little Dizi sink any further.

Shut up. I have hundreds of solutions running through my mind right now.

I'm choosing one right now.

Reporting to Cult Leader. We have recruited 131 members.

At this rate, in two hours

we will achieve our goal of recruiting 1,000 members.

Very good.

What?

Bring it on.

- What do you mean? - Cut the crap.

Kiss me.

Lunatic.

Stop pretending. I know that

you are angry with me for humiliating you

by interrupting halfway through your domineering kiss.

Forget it. For the sake of the people in the kingdom,

I will sacrifice my sexuality

and force myself to let you finish the other half of your kiss.

Psst.

How was it? Are you satisfied?

It was passable.

If you disband the evil cult, I will give you more domineering kisses.

When did I agree to disband the evil cult?

Fine. State your terms.

Today, I must deal with these

innocent people who were corrupted by money.

Well said, well said. How about this, Master Mu?

Agree to marry our leader in front of everyone today.

Don't even talk about disbanding the evil cult,

we will even submit to Qianyun Mountain Pavilion.

Fine.

Your leader and I have only known each other for two days.

This relationship needs some time to grow.

For the sake of the people in the kingdom,

I promise to pick an auspicious date to marry you.

This money is enough to last you for the rest of your lives.

Don't ever steal again.

Or else, I will cut off your hands.

You will never be able to play mahjong again.

We will solemnly respect your order.

This is more like it.

[With the heroes of the martial arts community as witnesses, Mu Juechen and Gongshu Yu voluntarily enter into a marriage contract, with the date set for February 29, 2017, when they will be forever bound to each other as husband and wife ]

Mu Juechen, you are too much.

The auspicious date for the wedding you have chosen is eighty years later. Are you trying to marry me posthumously?

Master is too cunning.

How could he use this kind of loophole?

Now, I really believe he has forgotten about me.

-Otherwise, he wouldn't treat me this way. -Hear me out.

Why don't we use Qian Xiao's Taixu Dreamland technique

to look at Master's dreams? What do you think?

Yes.

Dreams can't be fabricated, right?

Thanks to my exceptionally good looks,

I neutralized the crisis in Qianyun.

I saved thousands of people from endless suffering.

Master.

- What is it? - Reporting.

Little Dizi invites you to meet at Chunyi Pavilion.

This female demon won't stop at all.

What other crafty ploys is she going to use?

Regardless of how many schemes she has,

you can still resolve them easily.

That's true. With me in control,

she won't be able to cause any trouble.

Of course. But frankly speaking,

why don't you make use of tonight

to successfully tame her.

Wouldn't that be a cause for celebration, to resolve this hidden danger?

You are always such a smooth talker.

I didn't expect you would have a caring heart too.

Yes. I have been with you for years on end.

My stained spirit has been cleansed and refined.

Without even trying to, your every word and action

are constantly purifying my soul.

There's no need to elaborate on these well-known things.

Since this is the case, I will willingly take on this heavy burden

and meet this female demon.

Why do I smell the scent of conspiracy?

Master, please sit.

It's deathly quiet. So it is a set-up.

First, let me state this clearly: No matter what hostilities you have,

don't think that I will move the wedding to an earlier date.

I did promise you I would choose an auspicious date,

but I didn't say which year.

Tonight, let's just

drink and chat. We won't talk about the wedding date.

Girl demon is not angry and even smiling.

She even invited me to drink. There must be something in the liquor.

Besides, something as big as a wedding shouldn't be done over-hastily.

And you've already said, we have only known each other for two days and need time to nurture our relationship.

This is the reason why I invited you here tonight.

I didn't expect there to be so much progress between us

after only knowing each other for a short two days.

Give me more time and I will make you give up your murderous tendencies

and move towards benevolence.

Qian Xiao.

Master.

Little Dizi, do you really plan to enter his dreams?

If he finds out, he will kill me.

I'm here. Hurry up and start.

Isn't this the cave Mu Juechen practiced self-denial in?

Why am I here?

Did you just appear out of thin air?

It's my dream. Of course, I'm in control.

You didn't drink the liquor.

If one doesn't want to fall into the demon's trap, one should know the female demon.

I already guessed

you and that traitor Qian Xiao would plan some ruse.

You even dared to intrude into my dream.

What do you want to do?

I'm turning this around and taking control.

Naturally, I will make use of this opportunity to cleanse you.

Eighteen Copper Men.

Show yourselves.

Do you want to leave?

Eighteen Copper Men, use the Jingang Sutra.

Everything has a way, as in the illusory nature of the Buddhist world.

Like dew, like electricity, and they should be regarded as such.

Everything has a way, as in the illusory nature of the Buddhist world.

Like dew, like electricity, and they should be regarded as such.

Everything has a way, as in the illusory nature of the Buddhist world.

Everything has a way, as in the illusory nature of the Buddhist world.

Like dew, like electricity, and they should be regarded as such.

Traitor!

See how I deal with you when we get back to Qianyun Mountain Pavilion.

Master, please forgive me. I was forced to and had no other choice.

Female demon, what did you think of the Jingang Sutra?

- Mu Juechen, you— - I hope, after experiencing this,

you will put down the butcher's knife,

and repent to be absolved of your crimes.

I take my leave.

Despicable.

Again!

He didn't forget me at all.

♫ Ahhh, the wind curls and the remaining clouds go west ♫

How can it be?

Impossible. He probably just lost part of his memory.

Qian Xiao, take me to his memories from Youyou Valley.

♫​ Thinking back on me ♫

♫​ Beautiful, disheveled hair. Pretty rapture. ♫

♫​ Lingering affection ♫

♫​ Gradually follow the orchid heart into ashes ♫

♫​ Ahhh, anything you say is fine ♫

♫​ Ahhh, as long as I can hear you ♫

♫​ Willows drifting. The colors of spring ♫

♫​ Dust and running water. Leave our tears ♫

♫​ The fate we are born with ♫

♫​ Won't go away with a spell ♫

♫​ A lifetime of memories with no regrets ♫

♫​ Grasping one's life with dust and ash ♫

How was it?

Forget it.

♫​ Deliberating over a bottle, intoxicated three thousand times over ♫

♫​ It's difficult to transform the ten thousand griefs in one's heart ♫

♫​ A lifetime of memories with no regrets ♫

♫​ But things don't turn out the way you want ♫

♫​ Following the lengths of heaven and earth ♫

♫​ Ahhh, I just wish to be with you always ♫

What did the female demon discover in my dreams?

Master, I already told you more than eighty times.

Little Dizi is really no longer in your memories.

She entered your dreams and didn't see anything.

Impossible, I have a kind of

scary feeling that I was exposed naked in front of her.

It's all your fault. I will show you the consequences of being a traitor.

- Master, I— - Guards!

Take this traitor and the female demon to the Holy Spirit Prison.

- Master, I'm innocent. - Let's go.

Master, I'm really innocent.

Master!

In his dreams, I saw his memories of me

slowly disappearing.

No matter did, I couldn't catch them.

I think he really has forgotten the past and lost his mind.

Xiao Yu, don't be too sad.

There must be a way to get back Master's memories.

Female demon Gongshu Yu trespassed into Master's dreams

and polluted his spirit. Your punishment is to be locked up in Holy Spirit Prison.

What? Holy Spirt Prison?

Are you mistaken?

This order is personally written by Master.

Anyone who defies this order will be thrown into prison.

I was in a bad mood and wanted to vent my anger.

I just advised you.

Ridiculous.

You injured my guards.

Young Master, you misunderstood Xiao Yu.

The guards entered just now and wanted to take her to prison without saying anything.

This is my order.

Should I listen to your opinion?

Can't this be discussed in a civil manner?

Since you are so determined,

I will obey your order then.

In any case, you don't remember me now. Whether I'm in prison

or out there, it's the same.

Little Flute, ever since Young Master regained consciousness,

he has been kind. This prison

has been transformed to a place where we can change our heart and spirit.

The criminals here can cleanse their stained heart and spirit.

[Names of criminals]

Don't be too depressed.

It's not impossible to think about getting out from here.

If you pass the mock tests in three years and the final test in two years,

Study painstakingly and pass the test

with a passing rate of 500 to 1. You may be released.

Last year, a seventy year old man succeeded in his tests and was released.

However, he was so excited that

he fell when he got out.

He passed away a few days later.

I rather die and close this matter.

[Prison]

This is more tiring than serving Young Master.

Looking at the sad state she's in, perhaps, she knows her mistakes.

This has always been with me in the past.

But now, I don't need it anymore.

Because you have me now.

Trust me. I will definitely

do better than it.

He really can't remember anything.

No. This must be the female demon's scheme.

[Book of Daoism]

Do you realize your mistakes now?

I do.

After reading the Book of Daoism,

I realized how lacking I am.

My realm of thoughts has improved a lot.

This...

I thought my outfit today was rather plain.

Hence, I paired it with this ceramic doll as the finishing touch.

Looks like you made some progress today.

You could even understand my concept.

Perhaps, there's still a chance

for him to remember me again.

This female demon's emotions fluctuate. It's hard to predict.

Looks like I should carefully observe her

to understand her temperament.

Mu Juechen chose all these books.

If I can grasp the profound mysteries of this book,

I will be able to understand who he is now.

Hang in there.

You are...

I'm Confucius.

I'm Mencius.

I'm Zhuang Zhou.

I'm Laozi.

I'm Zhou.

We are here to assist you.

[Top Three Test results of Diamond Sutra]

This female demon

could understand the true essence of this book that fast?

This is not right.

It's just one subject. It must be a coincidence.

Young Master, Gongshu Yu topped her class in the test for Book of Daoism..

Young Master, Gongshu Yu topped the class in the test for Diamond Sutra.

Young Master, Gongshu Yu topped the class in Analects of Confucius, Book of Songs and Book of Changes.

Impossible.

I must personally set the question and supervise the test.

I personally set the question and supervise the test.

Let's see what tricks she can use.

You completed your answer?

This...this is impossible. I personally set the question.

No one can answer this. Impossible.

Are you satisfied with my answer?

You can leave.

Gongshu Yu can be released from prison.

Young Master personally set the question and she could even pass?

She's really amazing.

I regret I can't comply with your wishes.

I have been here for only a few days.

There's no royal road to learning.

I'm willing to remain here to do research into the hundreds of books that you have chosen.

I hope that, one day, I can catch up with you.

No. I can't let her continue to study.

If she grasps the profound mysteries of the books, she will eventually surpass me.

By then, I won't be able to control her and her tricks.
