[The Flame's Daughter]

[Episode 49]

When I first practiced Dark River Palace's inner force

I was so surprised and joyful.

That there was actually such an amazing force in the Pugilist World.

Yet it originated from a diabolic practice.

Could all the righteous sects be fooling themselves?

They all claim to be righteous and decent.

But none of them were as powerful as Dark River Palace.

Then...

I finally understood.

No one in this world would learn this inner force for no reason.

Most of them were forced into it.

On the way to the underworld...

who would remember anyone?

Do you know why I healed Yu Zi Han back then?

I do.

It was because of Ru Ge.

I also did it for myself.

Since Ge'er was little, Yu Zi Han has always looked out for her.

I did that... out of sentiment and gratitude.

I wanted to repay his kindness.

Apart from me...

she shouldn't owe anyone.

Perhaps I can make it to the ninth level of Dark River Palace's inner force.

Then I can save you.

It's too late.

Close your eyes.

Lie Ru Ge, close your eyes.

What is it? Are you in pain?

I feel a tightness in my chest.

Tea.

You'll feel much better once you have some.

I won't have any.

Drink it up, quickly.

My chest isn't tight now. I'm not drinking this.

If I want you to drink it, you can't avoid it.

It just depends on whether you want to spend two hours or an afternoon on it.

Give me a reason to drink it then.

Do you want the real reason or a false one?

You have two reasons?

One is that... after drinking this, you'll lose your memories.

The other is that I like leaving my blood in your body.

It makes me feel like I'm still alive.

Like I'm truly alive.

Which is true and which is false?

Take a guess.

Both are false.

You've gotten smart after having this for days.

Drink it up, quickly.

What if I refuse to drink it?

That's Ming.

That's Ming!

Supreme Master.

Who are you?

Are you Anye Ru Ge or her?

I'm not Anye Ru Ge.

- I'm Lie Ru Ge. - Ming--

Why would she be Anye Ru Ge?

Even if she isn't Lie Ru Ge, she should be Zhan Ru Ge.

How dare you fool me!

Do you think that all I have is Yu Zi Han and Zhan Feng?

Dao Lie Xiang, Lei Jing Hong

and everyone at the foot of the mountain is in my hands.

They're all caught in my trap.

You caught them?

They're so dumb.

They wanted to save you.

You can use Ming to fool me all you like.

Listen up.

My patience is running thin.

The longer you stall, the faster you die!

Are you all right?

Give it to me.

I'll drink it.

Yin Xue, don't think that you can deceive me.

If I find out that you're lying to me, you'll all die!

Take a look around. Be cautious.

Yes!

Can we hold this in our hands?

Sure.

It detonates when you throw it out.

I brought all the ones they had at the branch.

These are enough to open up a path.

Good.

Our priority now is picking a few people to lead the way with the explosives.

This is Flame Villa's private matter.

I'll lead our men.

You can, but our disciples can't.

Why not?

There will be more traps set up in the woods.

Whoever leads the way must be highly skilled.

They can ensure their safety, open up the path, and look out for each another.

That will limit casualties.

Count me in.

I'll definitely join in.

Both Hall Masters should hold down the fort.

I'll head into the woods.

I'll join you.

My martial arts skills aren't bad either.

Young Master Ji sure has some hidden talent by his side.

In Flame Villa, Bi'er is no less skilled than our hall masters.

Let her join them.

Sure, the four of us will go then.

Hall Masters, the situation in the woods is unknown.

Don't barge in without our signal.

Be careful.

I gave it another try.

You're still so boring.

I just came to return this to you.

From now on, you're nothing more than a senior to me.

I'm just your junior.

We're no longer related in any way.

Leave Anye Luo...

I don't want you... to regret it.

Mentor...

Mentor?

Mentor!

I fed Ge'er my blood.

She'll lose her memory temporarily and descend into delusions.

She'll think that she's Anye Ming.

The effects won't last long.

But...

this is our last and only chance to assassinate Anye Luo.

Zhan Feng, you must break through your own demons.

Forget the past.

Let's go!

You're awake?

We're in the underground palace?

Have you trespassed into the underground palace again, Luo?

Luo?

You remember?

Did I forget something?

No.

Mentor and I had a huge argument.

You were wounded by Mentor when you tried to break up the fight.

I brought you here.

That old fellow can't get in here.

He can't do anything to us.

Luo, you talked back to Mentor again.

What about our junior?

What if Mentor vents his anger on Jue instead?

Don't worry.

She came to the underground palace with us.

She's healing in seclusion now.

That sets my mind at ease.

I'm a bit tired.

Supreme Master.

Where's Young Mistress?

She's still asleep.

You grew up with your young mistress.

Can you tell the difference?

Is she just pretending...

or has she really changed?

I never met Second Lady.

I can't say for sure.

[Anye Ming's memorial tablet]

How can a dead person still have memories?

This is just another trap.

A trap...

This must be it.

Should we gather everyone before we go in?

Dark River Palace has a complicated structure.

The more people there are, the more we will overlook.

It won't be easy to retreat either.

All right, we'll keep looking around then.

No matter what, we must get in there.

It doesn't seem right.

So many of them were hiding in the woods when we came in.

But the main entrance is unguarded.

- It's very strange. - You're scared?

If you're scared, don't go in.

What kind of man backs out last minute?

Lie Xiang!

I'm worried about you.

Address me as Third Young Mistress.

This looks like it's from Zhan Feng's clothes.

Where's my wife?

Address me as Third Young Mistress!

Come here, quickly!

I'm over here!

She found something. Let's go.

I found a--

Come out, quickly!

Lie Xiang, what's going on in there?

Is it an ambush?

Quickly! Look for the switch from outside!

Sure!

Where's the map?

Let's see if the switches are marked.

No. Young Master Yu wouldn't have mapped out such details.

He couldn't possibly know about all the switches here.

You're right.

We'll keep looking then.

The door from the cell to the main hall is also shut.

Now, Miss Dao is trapped in the cell, and we're trapped here.

We're in the same boat.

How could this happen?

Lei Jing Hong, you better be careful!

Look out for hidden weapons!

All right! You too!

Hall Master Zhongli, what are you doing?

We won't get any air here.

The burning fire will only use up the air in here.

We must put them out quickly.

Lie Xiang, put out the fire!

Supreme Master.

Just as you expected, they're trapped in Dark River Palace now.

They're so dumb.

But we've only trapped four of them.

Most of the people from Flame Villa are still outside the woods.

Oh?

They even knew to split into two teams?

Who did we manage to trap?

It's Miss Dao, Young Master Lei

a hall master, and a lady named Bi'er.

The Dao and Lei families?

Those three big pugilist families went at each other's necks a generation ago.

How did they become such faithful friends this time round?

Dark River Palace's main hall has been abandoned for a good cause

if we can trap the descendants of the Dao and Lei families in it.

You're dismissed.

Keep an eye on the situation at the foot of the mountain.

You mustn't act carelessly.

Yes.

Lei Jing Hong!

Lie Xiang, I'm right here!

What are you shouting for?

Save some strength.

Sure!

Say something to me in a while.

What for?

That will just make me thirsty.

Are you thirsty?

What should I do?

Isn't there anything you can drink?

- Even wine is fine! - Shut up.

It annoys me to hear you speak.

All right, I'll stop talking.

I won't talk.

Don't be scared!

I'm right here! I won't leave!

You're even thinking about leaving?

We're all trapped in here.

[Anye Ming's memorial tablet, Anye Luo's memorial tablet]

You really placed our memorial tablets here?

This is where all the previous supreme masters are worshipped.

Aren't you scared that Mentor will kill you for doing this?

Don't worry about that yet.

Tell me. How did you know that our memorial tablets are here?

You once said

that you wanted to place our memorial tablets here to be worshipped.

Did I remember it wrong?

No...

I...

Luo...

I thought you just said it as a joke when you were young.

I never thought you'd really do it.

It's not a joke.

I'm the Supreme Master now.

I'm the Supreme Master and you're my wife!

Our memorial tablets should--

Stop speaking of such immoral matters.

- Don't you want that? - No!

I raised you.

How can we--

Luo...

Do you know someone named Zhan Fei Tian?

You're not to mention him!

Who is he?

He's dead.

A dead man who has nothing to do with you!

That's impossible.

Luo, help me remember who Zhan Fei Tian is.

Why can't I remember anything about him?

Zhan Fei Tian...

He and I--

Even if everyone lies to me

am I to lie to myself too?

Don't remember him.

Don't remember him...

Don't remember him...

What are you doing here?

Why did you have to return?

- Why? - Let go of me!

Let go!

Hold on!

It's been 10 days.

Take me to Senior Yu.

You'll regret seeing him.

What have you done to him?

All that's left for anyone who betrays me is hell.

Take me to him.

Sure.

What have you done to him?

He was an invalid in the first place.

I just turned him back to what he once was.

He wasn't like this before!

Senior Yu...

Senior Yu!

Senior Yu...

Stop shouting.

He can't hear you.

Without Dark River Palace's inner force, he's disabled, just as he was before.

You gave him an able body like everyone else's.

Then you took it all away from him forcibly.

You're too cruel.

You call this "too cruel"?

Look at his eyes.

The clear, shimmering eyes that were once like rivers in spring.

It's really strange.

A disabled man like him can actually bear to lose everything again.

If he hadn't betrayed me

he could've shared the world and the Pugilist Alliance with me.

Senior Yu...

I've come to see you.

You always promised me that you'd look after yourself.

But you never did that.

You're Prince Jingyuan...

How can you go back on your word?

Ru Ge...

Senior Yu?

He lost his hearing, mobility, sight, and voice.

Pain and illnesses invade his body all day long.

But he won't be able to die.

He'll be in a living hell till he draws his last breath.

Senior Yu...

Senior Yu...

You know that it's me, don't you?

You do know it's me, don't you?

Ru Ge...

It's me.

Don't be scared.

I'm not scared.

Are you all right?

I'm fine.

Why are you crying?

I'm very happy to see you.

I'll rescue you from here.

You must stay alive.

How touching it is to see the comradery between two disciples.

Yet the comradery you had for my mother disgusts me.

You better remember

that all that you do and say determines whether he lives or dies.

Let go of me!

Senior Yu!

Senior Yu!

Senior Yu!

Senior Yu! Let go of me!

Let go of me!

Senior Yu!

Why are you being so kind as to return my zither to me?

Are you asking me for a favor?

It's not just the zither.

I can even help you recover all your powers.

What is it that you want?

Bring her back.

Make Lie Ru Ge leave her body completely.

Aren't you being a bit too anxious?

I haven't noticed any traces of Anye Ming yet.

No, but I have!

She was right here in the main hall yesterday!

- Really? - I'm certain.

Even so, it's just fleeting, so it doesn't count.

That wasn't what you said then.

Indeed. But I didn't know that Ru Ge was so strong-willed.

If she isn't willing, there's nothing I can do.

What if she's willing?

How would she be willing?

If she is, you can have it any way you want.

Before that happens, don't bother paying so much attention to me.

As long as you're willing to give your mind up

I can set everyone free.

Yu Zi Han can also recover.

I can't trust you.

I once swore to your mother that I wouldn't return for 19 years.

I kept my word.

I am a man of my word.

You're not.

You're a lunatic.

You'll change your mind anytime it pleases you.

Even if you set them free now, you may still harm them in the future.

Whoever betrays or deceives you...

you'd never let them off so easily.

Who do you think you are to negotiate terms with me?

Even if I capture them later, at least they'll get to live for now.

If you don't agree to it today, they'll all die before your eyes.

Perhaps...

You'd prefer to stay with me?

Even if my mother returns to my body, she wouldn't want you.

Yu Zi Han and Zhan Feng won't die just yet.

But those trapped in Dark River Palace have been there for days now.

If you keep stalling, they will all die.

Let them go.

Don't you care a lot about this body of yours?

If you dare to harm them

I'll torture Anye Ming, even if she is my mother.

I swear that as long as you're willing to give your mind up

I'll let everyone go free.

I'll never approach them again.

Fine.

It's a deal.

Lei Jing Hong...

Lie Xiang?

Don't be scared.

Our lives are in the hands of gods.

What have I got to fear?

My wife sure is courageous.

Don't talk anymore.

Use your inner force and meditate.

Do you regret it?

Deceiving me.

I regret it.

I truly regret it.

When I saw my stepmother's corpse at Flame Villa that day

I suddenly understood.

The feelings we have for someone

can't just be determined by whether they're good or evil.

I knew that she killed my father.

I also knew that she was a witch.

But I still couldn't bear to see her lying dead before my eyes.

She spared my life several times.

I know that she did it out of kinship.

I'm sorry, Lie Xiang.

I figured it out too late.

If I had understood sooner

I never would've killed your brother.

Did you agree to it?

You'd choose to sacrifice yourself to save them?

Yes.

You're just like her.

Are you saying that I'm like the woman you loved in the past?

Xun Yi.

Prepare the extract of snow lotus.

Yes.

After tonight, you'll fall into a long-lasting slumber.

Is there anything you wish to say to me?

No.

You still can't resist talking to me.

When I'm gone, will I have a place in your heart?

Say yes.

Yes.
