[The Flame's Daughter]

[Episode 16]

Tie it more securely.

Right.

That's it.

Ru Ge! Senior Yu!

- Senior Ji. - Ru Ge.

You still remember to come home?

I haven't seen you for half a year.

I miss you so much.

Tell me, will you leave again?

I can't say for sure.

Look at how capable you are.

Where's my father? Why don't I see him?

Mentor is in the training chamber.

I'll go to see my father now.

Senior Yu, you can head back to the Bamboo Quarters.

Go ahead.

Let's go.

Father.

I miss you so much.

Good, it's great to have you home.

Ge'er, you've improved quite a lot in martial arts.

Yes, Father.

What is it?

Nothing.

You should know that you can count those who are able to doge

my fist force on the fingers of one hand.

You mean to say that I'm a super hero now?

You're not to gloat over it.

I didn't.

Father, there's so much I have to tell you.

Go ahead. I'm all ears.

It's about Thunderbreak Manor.

I've now heard from you about Thunderbreak Manor's case.

I'll have Yi Lang investigate in secret.

But you also shouldn't hold on to your own opinion.

After all, there's no evidence to prove it.

I can't just reprimand and question Zhan Feng because of your speculations.

Yes, I understand.

Go and pay respects to your Uncle Zhan.

Yes.

Do you blame me?

What are you referring to?

Do you blame me for consenting to Zhan Feng's marriage?

You still have Zhan Feng on your mind.

I only blame you for giving your consent so easily.

Top Blade City never once shared the same values we do.

If you allow Zhan Feng to go through with this marriage

aren't you worried that it could be a conspiracy?

What a good question.

But I... I also wish to see Zhan Feng get married.

Can you understand how I feel?

I wish...

I wish to see Zhan Feng get married and have children.

I hope one day, I get to see him holding a chubby son in his arms...

standing in front of me.

Let's not talk about that.

I've never been afraid of anything.

You should know that your father is Lie Ming Jing.

Why would I be scared of a few young ones from Top Blade City?

Ge'er... We rarely host any joyous occasions here in the villa.

We should all be happy about this.

Put a smile on your face.

Put on a smile. Will you?

I heard you, Father.

Young Master Feng.

Why are you cleaning today?

Master gave us orders to do so.

Master said that Young Mistress will return before your wedding

so we have to clean up in advance.

Look at this lantern.

- It's so pretty. - Exactly.

Here, slowly.

The bed is laid out properly?

Scatter them all over the bed.

- You may be dismissed now. - Yes.

See? Do it like I did.

That one. Arrange it neatly.

Arrange it neatly.

Young Master Feng.

This is the professional matchmaker.

Young Master Feng.

I'm from Top Blade City.

My Young Master sent me over today

to make the bed for the newlyweds.

The matchmaker's parents are both well and so are her siblings.

She has a blissful marriage and an abundance of children.

She's been specially selected to bring good luck to the newlyweds.

Young Master, from the day the nuptial bed is made

you can't sleep on this bed until the wedding day.

You can only sleep on it on the night of the wedding.

Right, there's more.

That's enough.

Go and get things prepared.

Yes.

Ru Ge, why do you like wearing red clothes?

They're pretty.

Why are red clothes pretty?

You're so stupid!

When brides get married, they are always in red.

Brides are the most beautiful women in the world.

It must be because they wear red.

But you're not a bride.

When I grow up, I'll be a bride.

I still have to wait for such a long time.

When will I grow up?

You want so much to be a bride?

Yes.

Why don't you be my bride then?

You said it. You can't go back on your word.

If you do, I'll never play with you again.

Sure, pinky swear.

- Head Housekeeper Yi. - Young Mistress.

What are these?

Master has excess coldness and water in his body.

He's been soaking his feet in medicinal broth for two months.

This is the herbal formula.

Thank you, Head Housekeeper Yi.

You're too polite, Young Mistress.

As Master Lie's godson, this is what I should do as his child.

You're right, Head Housekeeper Yi.

Do head in.

Young Mistress.

How nice.

It's still great to be home.

I haven't had hot towels that Xun Yi wrings dry for me.

Young Mistress, do you mean to say

that I haven't served you well for the past six months?

Seriously.

Can't you just let me praise Xun Yi at all?

It's not that.

I'm just afraid Xun Yi will say that I didn't take good care of you again.

I heard that Young Mistress was ill in the capital for a long time.

Did you look after her well?

That's because she was too sad!

All right, it's all my fault.

You can punish me and make me do some chores while you catch up.

You're the best of friends.

I'm just one of the help!

Xun Yi, come and have a seat.

- Die Yi. - What's wrong?

Hall Master Zhongli is waiting for you at the back of the hill.

Go braise a lotus stew for Young Mistress.

- I'll be back shortly. - Go on.

Zhongli Wulei!

Miss Die Yi.

Don't call me Miss.

Die Yi.

That's more like it.

Why have you asked to see me?

There are some things, but...

You helped me once.

We're friends. Just say it. Don't be so polite.

Sure.

The guard who came here with you, is he Lei Jing Hong?

Why would you ask me about that?

Don't get me wrong, Die Yi.

I'm just...

I'm the Hall Master of Azure Dragon Hall.

I get informed very quickly.

I've already kept this information from the others.

I didn't tell anyone.

I just want to ask you what this is about.

What will you do if I say that he is?

If I say that he isn't, what will you do?

There's an issue with Thunderclap Sect.

I believe you must have heard of it in Luoyang.

I'm worried that he'll get Young Mistress in trouble.

You're not being honest with me.

Or at least, you haven't told me all there is to say.

I'm also worried that you could get implicated.

Are you worried about me?

It's dangerous in the Pugilist World.

I'm worried that you and Young Mistress

can't identify liars and might be deceived.

You really are worried about me.

Don't worry.

All right, I have to get ready to join Young Master Feng to meet his bride.

Don't bring him up.

Keep talking.

Keep talking?

Go on.

What should I say?

I'll get going now.

No... You haven't said it yet!

You...

If I were you, I'd have just made up an excuse to stay in Royal Jingyuan Manor

instead of coming back here.

All the heroes of the Pugilist World will be at the wedding tomorrow.

If I don't attend, people might gossip about Flame Villa because of me.

Ru Ge?

Can I come in?

Come in, Senior Ji.

Senior Ji.

I've come to invite you to dinner in Pine Quarters.

- With my father? - No.

Just the disciples.

Will you join us or not, Ru Ge?

Sure.

I haven't had dinner with my seniors for a long time.

- Let's go. - Come.

I'll get going.

Have a seat.

Where's the wine?

How can we do without wine?

- Bi'er. - Young Master.

Take a look.

What is going on?

I'm having dinner with my seniors and Ru Ge.

Why didn't you prepare any wine?

Young Master, have you forgotten?

Young Master Feng has to leave tonight

for his wedding procession, so he can't drink.

All right, you can leave now.

Yes.

Since there's no wine, we'll drink tea instead.

Here.

We haven't met up for a long time.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

Senior Yu, you've just recovered.

Eat up.

Have some of this.

Then a bit of this.

Here's some meat for you.

Ru Ge.

Why don't we have a friendly match?

What for? Shouldn't we have dinner properly?

We'll have a game with this.

We'll fight for this.

We won't move our legs, only our palms.

Whoever gets it, wins.

The winner gets to punish the loser and can make them do anything.

I don't want to.

I'm hungry. I want to have dinner.

It's just a game.

After today, Senior Feng will be a married man.

It will be hard for all of us to get together in one place again.

All right.

Who will go first?

The two of us. We're the youngest.

I won.

All right.

I lost. How will you punish me?

You have to answer a question.

Sure.

Ru Ge, do you still have that lotus pond in your heart?

You're not to mention that.

Junior Ji, Senior Feng is heading out tonight to bring his bride home.

Don't bother with something meaningless.

But he hasn't left the villa yet.

Anything is still possible.

Ru Ge, a bet is a bet.

I don't know.

You're distracted so you don't dare to admit it.

That's why you don't know?

Junior Ji, I've already answered your question.

It's our turn.

If you don't want me to ask you about secrets you refuse to speak of

take this chopstick away from me.

I have the other half in my hand.

You lost.

What do you want to ask me?

Why are you marrying Dao Lie Xiang?

What is your purpose?

I did it for myself.

Senior Zhan!

Senior Ji is right.

The wedding procession has yet to leave the villa.

You can still call it off.

Do you want me to call it off?

Stop making mistakes.

Don't make my father sad again.

- Senior Zhan! - Ru Ge!

Tell him quickly that you like him and you don't him to marry someone else!

You didn't understand what I just said.

That isn't what I meant.

Junior Ji.

Ru Ge means that she doesn't want Mentor to be upset.

What's on your mind?

You find Senior Feng's marriage fishy?

I used to be blinded by my feelings for Zhan Feng.

I failed to see clearly.

But now that I'm looking at this matter without personal feelings...

I find this all happening too abruptly.

First it was Ying Yi.

Then there was Thunderbreak Manor's case.

Next, a curse was cast on you.

There's also Yin Xue's death.

Now, it's Zhan Feng's wedding.

I feel like there's someone behind all of these events

who is manipulating us and making us walk right into his traps.

He wants to trap us, so we can never get out.

There's no harm in being stuck in a situation for some time.

Wait and observe. There's always a loophole.

All my clothes are red.

Young Mistress.

The wedding procession has set out.

Xun Yi, find me some clothes.

Just anything wearable. Make sure it isn't red.

Right, you're not in charge of my clothes.

Die Yi!

Young Mistress.

Die Yi, go find me some other clothes.

Anything that isn't red will do.

Isn't red your favorite color?

You're only ever worn red clothes.

If I'm going to wear it tomorrow, do we have time to get something made?

Now?

It will take at least a week or two to make you clothes.

It won't be ready in time.

Young Mistress, you had two new outfits made for me and Die Yi last year.

I haven't worn mine yet.

The fabric is also of high quality.

If you don't mind, you can wear mine.

Good, I'll wear yours then.

Since this matter is resolved, you should go to bed soon.

You should go to bed as well.

Xun Yi, why is Young Mistress looking for clothes late at night?

Seriously!

The bride will be dressed in red.

Young Mistress certainly cannot wear the same color.

Why should she avoid--

Shush! Go and bring my outfit here.

Hurry up.

Best wishes to the newly weds!

Beautiful scenery and auspicious date for the best couple!

Congratulations, Young Mistress!

You're Lie Ming Jing's first disciple.

Now, you're marrying the Third Young Mistress of Top Blade City.

By right and reason, Lie Ming Jing will hand over Flame Villa to you.

Congratulations, Zhan Feng.

Once Flame Villa is annihilated, you can divorce Zhan Feng.

By then, you'll be the Young Mistress of the most powerful pugilist family.

No one will dare say a word when you get married again in grandeur.

Please come in.

Please come in.

Taoist Song Ya Zi.

It really has been a long time.

I was worried that you might not show up.

Hall Master Murong, which one of us in the Pugilist World

would dare to miss out on the wedding of Flame Villa and Top Blade City?

No...

I should say that we're all fighting for a chance to be here!

- Here, please come in. - Sure.

Please have a seat.

Abbot Liu Mei, Abbess Jing Yun.

Be with Buddha.

We have arrived late.

Not at all! The wedding hasn't started.

Has the bride arrived?

They just sent a message to say

that the bridal carriage is already at the foot of the mountain.

Congratulations!

- Congratulations! - Thank you.

- Please come in. - Sure!

Here.

Master Lie arrives!

- Congratulations! - Congratulations!

Congratulations, Master Lie!

- Congratulations! - Thank you!

Congratulations!

Castellan Dao, after you.

Thank you, Master Lie.

How joyful.

I can finally set my mind at ease.

He was addressed as Castellan Dao.

Isn't he just the Young Master?

After Young Master Dao's father died from illness

he said that the position of Top Blade City's Castellan

would be kept unoccupied for 10 years.

Now that I think about it, 10 years have already gone by.

He's kept the position of the Castellan unoccupied for 10 years.

What a filial son.

He is, isn't he?

I guess that from today onward

Zhan Feng will take over Flame Villa as the Master.

One is Zhan Feng, and the other is Dao Wu Xia.

Both of them are both talented and virtuous young heroes.

Exactly.

This is great news for the Pugilist World.

Exactly. Look at how happy Master Lie is.

It's a joyous occasion.

Father, look at you. You're smiling as if you're the groom.

Don't smile so much.

What are you talking about?

I know that you're baiting me.

You surely won't get mad at me today.

Yes, I won't get angry today.

I'm very happy tonight!

I'm very happy.

Is it really so important to you that Zhan Feng gets married?

What is it?

You're jealous?

I am.

Father is so happy that Zhan Feng is getting married.

I'm definitely not pleased about it.

But as long as it pleases Father, it's all fine with me.

My lovely daughter.

You're my most precious and beloved daughter.

I'm willing to give you all the best things

I've ever seen in my life.

I just want you to be happy.

The newlyweds have arrived!

The newlyweds are here.

They have arrived.

Great!

My father said that his greatest wish is to see

Zhan Feng get married and have children.

He hopes to hold a grandson in his arms.

Don't worry, Senior Yu.

I truly wish them every happiness, so that my father's wish can come true.

Step over the brazier.

My sister has always had such a temperament.

First, bow to Heaven and Earth!

Second, bow to the parents!

Good!

Bow to each other as husband and wife!

Young Master Feng!

Young Master Feng...

Am I not the only one you love?

What is going on?

Ying Yi!

It's Young Master Feng's wedding day.

I advise you not to make a scene.

Leave right away!

Who dares to make me leave?

If any of you dares to come up here, I'll kill myself!

What is this about?

It doesn't matter if I die.

However, if I'm dead...

The child I'm carrying will die with me!

- She is with child? - It can't be!

This is...

They are having a child?

How did this happen?

They are having a child?

Miss Dao, I'm begging you.

Please allow me to be with Young Master Feng. Please?

He means everything to me!

I can't survive without him!

I'm begging you, Miss Dao.

I'm already carrying his child.

What's the point in begging me?

The child is his, not mine.

Miss Dao, he doesn't even like you!

He has no choice but to marry you.

If you weren't the Third Young Mistress of Top Blade City

he never would have married you!

How could that be?

Say... how did it turn out like this?

I'm the only one he loves... and our child who will soon be born.

Young Master Zhan Feng.

Please handle your women.

Get out of here!

Why did he throw such a huge tantrum?

Exactly!

How could he behave like that?

He really shouldn't.

Ge'er, why don't we head back and get some rest?

Come, we should get going.

Ying Yi.

Every guest present at the wedding is a pugilist.

If you insist on getting your blood spilled right here...

I'll get someone to wipe it clean.

Young Master Feng...

We can't possibly have a child.

Yi Lang!

He struck her so heavy-handedly!

This is...

Head Housekeeper Yi, why would you treat a woman so?

This is Flame Villa, not some diabolic sect!

Father.

I'll take her away with me. You can all stay.

All right.

Xun Yi, Die Yi.

Young Mistress! Are you really going--

Senior Yu, can I take her to your Bamboo Quarters?

It's the safest place in Flame Villa.

All right!

Since it's Zhan Feng's wedding day and all my friends are present

I hereby announce...

My daughter, Ru Ge will become the next master of Flame Villa!

She's the next master of Flame Villa?

The next master...

She's still young and she has quite a temper.

Please do bear with her.

- Definitely! - Definitely!

Please bear with her.

- Definitely! - Definitely!

We'll leave her to handle that small issue

we just had during the wedding.

We can't dampen everyone's mood because of that tiny incident, right?

Let's drink!

Strike up a tune.

Get the banquet ready.

Escort the bride to the nuptial room!

Young Mistress, why would you save this woman?

She embarrassed you previously and now, all of Flame Villa.

I have my reasons.

Die Yi, sit down.

I have to talk to you about two matters.

I won't help you save her.

Young Master Feng hit me once because of her.

Head over to Azure Dragon Hall to get her background checked.

That sounds more like it.

I told you that she's fishy.

I'll get that done right away.

Hall Master.

She's here again.

- Die Yi? - Yes.

Hall Master, since Young Mistress is taking over the villa

you might as well use this chance to marry her

and make her the mistress of Azure Dragon Hall.

As for the successor of the villa, no one is to discuss it again.

Yes.

Die Yi.

What is this?

You'll know when you read it.

Sure.

[Investigate Ying Yi's identity.]

This is against the regulations.

Just help me out.

Apart from Master Lie, no one--

You also heard him tonight.

Young Mistress will inherit Flame Villa as the next master, right?

Just help me out.

It's not as if I'm asking you to kill someone for me.

Don't write such notes again.

It is evidence.

Die Yi.

You'll hear from me tomorrow.

You should leave now.

Here, drink this!

Enjoy.

Everyone!

Here's a toast to everyone!

- Here. - Here.

After you.

Bottoms up.

After you.

Eat.

Look at the great food.

It's really good.

Castellan Dao, I'll retire for the night.

- Stay and enjoy. - Master Lie, feel free to leave.

Sure.

Everyone!

Drink to your heart's content!

I'm going to retire for the night.

I'll take my leave.

Take care, Master Lie.

Mentor, take care.

Take care, Master Lie.

Mentor...

Here, come.

Sure.

- Drink this. - Pour more wine.

Fill the cup!

Enjoy the food.

Good wine!

Young Mistress, you needn't worry.

We'll be informed tomorrow.

I hit her on the acupuncture point.

Until Hall Master Zhongli reports back with the information

no one is allowed near her.

Young Mistress, aren't you worried about yourself?

What about?

Master suddenly decided to hand over Flame Villa to you.

It frightens me to think of it.

We'll just roll with the punches.

What's there to be scared of?

But...

Everyone thought that Young Master Feng would be the next Master

after he was married.

Now that it's turned out like this...

- You're unhappy about it? - I am.

This means there will be more trouble.

Young Mistress is Master Lie's daughter.

It's only reasonable that she's the next master of the villa.

Besides, the Flame Seal was passed down to her long ago.

Young Mistress is the rightful heir of Flame Villa anyway.

So what if there will be trouble?

Those who can take on huge responsibilities never had it easy.

But... Anyway, I just don't like it.

I don't like it that Young Mistress has to be pestered every day.

Perhaps, my father only said it in a fit of anger.

Why would you two start arguing over it now, my two sisters?

I'll take a stroll.

Keep an eye on her.
