[Episode 28]

What you just told me,

they were all lies.

Yes.

Because I don't want to see you killing anyone.

Ding Qi, look at how you have changed.

Is there any difference between you and that Bai Chongye whose hands are filled with blood?

Deceptive talk!

Tell me. If Xia Chunyu knew that you were here with me,

would he take the initiative to bring Bai Chongye's head to me?

Ding Qi.

Why is it so hot?

Eldest Brother, are you all right?

I have a naturally hard life. I won't die.

I'm going to tell you a big secret.

I don't want to hear any secrets now.

- This is meant for the successor of Black Wind Fortress. - Eldest Brother.

I will trust you... to the end.

Come here.

I will remember everything in my heart.

Regardless of whoever sent you here,

you must promise me

to keep this secret. Promise me this.

Help me up.

Eldest Brother.

Eldest Brother, for all the things that had happened, I indeed disappointed you.

I can't let you take this risk again.

What are you trying to do?

What am I trying to do?

Ding Qi won't be able to protect you now.

You scum!

Ding Qi! Ding Qi!

- Ding Qi! - Ding Qi?

After this is over, he won't even be able to protect himself.

It's better that you seek your own happiness.

As long as you submit to me...

Even if she took advantage of me and tricked me,

it's not for you to touch her. You die if you touch her.

What's going on?

If you really want to pay the price, you can.

I can lend you manpower to eliminate the Black Wind Fortress.

But if you want something, you must first give something.

But now, I don't have anything at all.

It's good enough if you have a heart for revenge.

As for what I want, you will find out one day.

It's none of your business. Don't think that everything that I did, was for you.

I've endured this asshole for a long time. I was finally able to vent my anger.

Everyone in Xinyi Court is already dead.

Someone must have definitely loaned the men to you.

I didn't do it for Xia Chunyu. I really did it for your own good.

Many people in Black Wind Fortress have already died.

You have already taken your revenge.

Pack up and leave this place now.

Will you leave with me then?

If you are willing to leave with me, we will leave right now.

If she was really willing to leave with you, would she still be tied up by you?

Xia Chunyu, what are you doing here?

Leave.

This is between us men.

It's not related to Yao Yao.

- Release Yao Yao. - Where is Bai Chongye's head?

You are not fit to ask me this question.

Do you really not care about whether she's dead or alive either?

I know you won't hurt her.

I will kill you first.

Chunyu! Ding Qi! Stop fighting!

Stop fighting!

- Ding Qi! - You will never be able to defeat me in your current condition.

Stop fighting!

I already told you that you won't be able to defeat me.

Ding Qi.

Is that so?

Kill him.

Take action now.

What are you doing?

Ding Qi, look out!

Ding Qi... Ding Qi!

This is the price you have to pay.

Ding Qi!

Ding Qi...

Ding Qi!

Ding Qi! Ding Qi!

Ding Qi...

Ding Qi...

- Crown Prince. - Greetings to the Crown Prince.

Crown Prince?

You are a Crown Prince?

Yao Yao.

Move aside.

Men, untie Madam.

Yes.

Heir Apparent infiltrated Black Wind Fortress for the government.

The mission is completed. It's very gratifying.

Please don't worry. We will take good care of Madam.

His Highness is waiting for you. Crown Prince, after you.

Is everyone from Black Wind Fortress dead?

This is not right. It can't be like this.

Ding Qi already promised me that he wouldn't kill anyone again.

Where is Xia Chunyu? I want to see him!

Everyone has died.

Shengsheng.

- Everyone has died. - Shengsheng!

Shengsheng, you are still alive. Shengsheng!

Shengsheng!

Shengsheng.

Murderer. He's a killer.

Who is the killer?

Kill! Kill!

- Who? - Kill.

Everyone was killed by him.

Nonsense!

Madam, she must has suffered some shock and has gone crazy.

- Men. - Here!

No one is allowed to come over here.

Save me, Yao Yao.

Who's the killer, Shengsheng?

- Shengsheng... - Don't ask me.

Who's the killer, Shengsheng?

- I don't know. - Aren't you taking action?

Don't! Shengsheng!

Shengsheng!

Madam, that woman has already passed away.

He was a spy at Black Wind Fortress.

Did everyone in Black Wind Fortress die today?

Madam, you should go back to your room to rest.

- Men. - Here.

- Take her away. - Yes.

Xia Chunyu. I want to see Xia Chunyu!

Do you still remember what you promised me?

I really didn't expect Ding Qi to charge in here and kill.

Xinyi Court had been razed to the ground.

Where would Ding Qi get such formidable subordinates?

Were you afraid that even if Bai Chongye left his position as the one in charge, he would still refuse to hand you the weapon?

So you thought of a way to force him to his death.

What are you talking about?

Frankly, you already calculated

my every step to gain Bai Chongye's trust;

until one day, he had no one to count on except me.

He has already told me all his secrets.

I calculated everything?

Bai Chongye didn't rebel!

The rest of the people at Black Wind Fortress were innocent!

Innocent? Why was Xinyi Court destroyed then?

Why was Xue Jin killed then?

The Black Wind Fortress took over the Nan'an City for so many years.

How much blood has stained their hands?

How many people did Bai ChongYe kill? Have I wronged him for all of them?

Chunyu, remember that without me,

the court would have a million reasons to pin him down.

You are right but why must it be me?

From the beginning, I shouldn't have shown up here.

I have committed a crime for betraying my own brothers.

Ever since I came to Black Wind Fortress, it has never had one day of peace.

I came here with an intention that was not pure.

But there were people who treated me with sincerity.

Don't forget that the word "spy" represents the intention to betray.

I'm begging you to spare Bai Chongye.

This situation is different from any other day.

This matter has spread all across Nan'an City.

The court already knows that they had taken over the city.

They have issued the order. It's just a single word, "kill".

- Your Highness. - I'm advising you to stop acting alone.

You will only harm yourself.

Your Highness, why are you still telling him this?

General.

You are taking Bai Chongye's side,

meaning that you are betraying the court.

I am talking to Your Highness, no one is to interfere.

Chunyu, I already told you.

General He Lianjing is not just anyone.

This matter has already gotten beyond our control.

Royal Father sent him to assist me.

I advise you to reveal the whereabouts of Bai Chongye immediately.

What if I don't?

Then you'll be killed under the crime of betraying the country.

- General. - Your Highness.

Your Highness is in a bad situation at court.

I believe His Highness, Prince Xia, is already aware of this.

He found you, who was supposed to have died many years ago, to infiltrate Black Wind Fortress.

If this were to succeed, it will be a great merit. But if it doesn't succeed...

Chunyu, everyone in Black Wind Fortress here now

is one of General He Lianjing's men. Think carefully.

Are you going to

harm me because of your friend, Bai Chongye?

Your Highness.

- Men. - Here.

Tie up Xia Chunyu

until he reveals Bai Chongye's whereabouts.

Chunyu! Chunyu!

- Eldest Brother. - Chunyu, you don't need to act anymore.

In order for this traitor to be caught in the trap,

your performance with him as a close brother has already ended.

Shut up.

No one can challenge our friendship.

So, this is what you think.

Naturally, Chunyu will never betray me.

Even more so, he will never betray the Imperial Court.

Is that so?

Since your brotherhood is false,

why don't you kill him now?

Xia Chunyu!

Bai Chongye holds many secrets of the officials in the Imperial Court.

This was also the motive for me to come to Black Wind Fortress.

If I were to kill him like this, it will be such a pity.

Prince Yu, what do you think?

If we can dig out the secrets of the officials in the Imperial Court from this traitor's mouth,

it would be a great service.

- What method do you have to make him talk? - Let's imprison him first.

I will personally interrogate him tonight.

If I can't get any results from him, I will kill him tomorrow morning.

- Your Highness. - I'm here to interrogate Bai Chongye. It's an important task.

There are so many of you. Would I be able to release him?

Yes, Your Highness.

Bai Chongye,

if you can reveal your collusion with the officials in the Imperial Court to rebel,

I believe Prince Yu and General He Lianjing will let you die a quick death.

Traitor.

Master Bai, you cut your way through the thistles and thorns on your life's journey and could be considered a great warrior,

but you have killed many people in cold blood.

Stop.

I'm here to deliver food to His Highness Xia.

Why haven't I seen you before?

Of course, you are not afraid of a single thrust.

But if it were thrust after thrust,

which cut deep into your flesh...

Despicable creature.

Eldest Brother, you need to think carefully about this.

Naina!

Little Manager Shen?

Little Manager Shen, you are still alive.

Xia Chunyu is a royal from Jing'an. He's here in Black Wind Fortress to eliminate us.

He's going to kill the Eldest Master now.

How is this possible?

You don't belong to this world. This grudge has nothing to do with you. I believe that you are innocent.

Leave now. You must live.

Let's leave together.

- How should we leave? - Over there.

Let's go. Be careful.

Stop! Go after them.

I knew you would do this.

Get the bows and arrows.

Release the arrows.

Eldest Brother.

Stop.

Eldest Brother.

The play has not ended yet.

I'm still a person that's lenient.

I'll give you another chance. Let's see if you are a human or a monster.

Crown Prince, please.

Why are you not moving?

Chunyu, do you still have pity for this person?

Go away!

He's not qualified to take pity on me.

He betrayed his sworn brother...

and destroyed my Black Wind Fortress.

I cannot escape today.

So don't think of ending this easily.

Eldest Brother, what are you doing?

I don't deserve to be called Sir Fuyi. I was wrong about you.

I'm the very famous Sir Fuyi

of the Jianghu.

You're Sir Fuyi?

Tomorrow, I'll pretend to execute you,

but will actually cut the rope binding you. We'll then take He Lianjing as hostage together.

Afterward, you leave first.

What about you?

Yao Yao is still in their hands. I must stay behind to save her.

Shoot them down!

Little Manager Shen, what's wrong?

- I'm fine. - Hold on!

- Minister, bad news! Bai Chongye and Xia Chunyu started fighting with each other. - What?

You guys, come with me.

But Lord... what about Ye Jinxuan escaping?

- The safety of His Highness is more important. Hurry!

What Sir Fuyi are you saying?

Do you remember what we said to each other during our oath as brothers?

Heaven above, may you bear witness that

- I, Bai Chongye, - I, Xia Chunyu,

are becoming sworn brothers today.

We'll treat each other like real brothers, no separation between me and you.

Work as one. Never changing.

Never thought that on our next meeting,

it can only be one person, one ghost.

One person, one ghost?

Fan Sheng fulfilled his promise by dying. It indeed is admirable.

Too bad, the one who went to the agreed meeting was a ghost, and not a person.

Eldest Brother, don't!

Eldest Brother.

Third Little Brother, we won't be able to escape.

You must live on.

Although I haven't been to the Yan Mountain, the wine toasting won't end.

The Oath of the Chrysantemum will now forever disappear from the Jianghu.

Your Highness, are you still going to say that Xia Chunyu and Bai Chongye are not conniving?

- Didn't you see that he personally killed him? - But Xia Chunyu—

Today, Xia Chunyu,

the Heir Apparent of the Marquis of Jing'an, personally killed the bandit criminal.

All his past dealings with the Black Wind Fortress

were just pretenses to comply with my command. Understand?

Understood!

Your Highness, Prince Yu, you're really good.

Little Manager Shen, you must hold on!

Little Manager Shen!

Little Manager Shen, wake up!

We are safe now. Wake up. Little Manager Shen!

You're awake. That's a relief.

I'll go look for somebody to help.

Nainai, promise me to keep on living.

Don't say things like this.

You will be fine.

Song Qi cannot be with you anymore.

Can you call me once more?

Little Manager Shen.

I'll gift you ten million.

Our waiwai...

Little Manager Shen... Little Manager Shen!

Little Manager Shen!

I don't want the ten million. I don't want waiwai.

Wake up.

Little Manager Shen! Song Qi! Song Qi...

I want you to live.

I don't want anything anymore.

I want you all to live.

Chunyu, for Bai Chongye to sacrifice his life for you,

he surely must have told you the secret of the exceptional mythical weapon the night before. Am I right?

Your wife has already left Black Wind Fortress on her own.

I'm very fortunate that you didn't use her to threaten me.

Chunyu, why do you still not understand?

The progression of these past events weren't under my control.

Right now, I'm the fish meat on the chopping board.

But our relationship has never changed.

I know. Which is why you would say I killed Bai Chongye.

You absolved me from my crime in front of He Lianjing.

Bai Chongye and Black Wind Fortress confirmed one saying,

"A person might be innocent, but owning a treasure makes him guilty."

Why are you obstinately persisting in the wrong beliefs?

Is he really guilty just because he owned a treasure? He killed so many people.

If this weapon was in his hands,

- then the world— - Stop saying it.

I already lost a friend.

I don't want to lose your friendship also.

The unique and rare treasures that Bai Chongye collected all his life

are indeed magnificent.

He once said

that he'll place his most treasured objects here in this secret chamber.

I thought initially that they were precious gems, but it wasn't them.

What you wanted, it's in there.

Does this need to be opened by a key?

The bull horn I gave you today wasn't from that bull.

It is the heir token of our Black Wind Fortress.

Fifty years ago, Wang Su, the head of Black Wind Fortress back then,

left behind a very precious item.

Legend says that it can activate heaven's wrath.

On the battlefield, it can go against a hundred, but I didn't notice anything mystical about this item.

Third Brother, you must guard it carefully.

Anyone who covets it must die.

Chunyu, what's going on?

Leave now.

Leave now.

Chunyu, what are you doing?

This so-called exceptional mysticai weapon is stained with the blood

of the Ximin Man Tribe and members of Black Wind Fortress! It's really an ominous item.

Chunyu!

Chunyu!

Your Highness, let's leave now!

Hurry up!

Come, Your Highness.

Your Highness.

I'm fine.

What a pity that we didn't finish our game. And I didn't get what I wanted.

Xia Chunyu and Bai Chongye are sincere toward each other.

I'm afraid, if we pressure him, I won't be able to get what I want.

Xia Chunyu may opt not to tell me or use a fake one to fool me.

Your Highness, what should we do then?

You be the evil person. You must let him think that

I'm unable to protect him now or even myself.

Based on this,

it won't be you who will cause the death of Bai Chongye. It will be me instead.

Once Bai Chongye dies, I will become the one that's able to restrain Chunyu's heart.

But how do you know that

Bai Chongye will definitely reveal everything to Xia Chunyu?

Let's force him to have to take action against Bai Chongye.

He will definitely think of a way to save Bai Chongye.

When that time comes, it's not possible that Bai Chongye wouldn't think about their brotherhood.

Bai Chongye will definitely use his life to protect Xia Chunyu.

These two people will die at the hands of their brotherhood.

[I love you]

Boat Master, have you heard of the story, "A notch on the side of a boat to locate a sword dropped overboard"?

I'm an uneducated person. I don't know about such things.

Let me tell you the story, "A notch on the side of a boat to locate a key dropped overboard" then.

I thought I could find it.

But actually, I didn't.
