Original subtitles

Chief Wen, you seemed to be well recovered.

Yes.

I’m well recovered.

Miss Shen was frightened last night.

Why don’t you rest at Mu’s clan?

I’m here to thank Chief Wen for saving my life.

Miss Shen, you’re welcome.

Please have a seat.

It’s just because of the excellent medical skill of Doctor Zuo

that lends me a chance to

know the taste of being a hero.

Miss Shen has taken it seriously.

This makes me feel embarrassed.

Where’s Doctor Zuo?

He’s not here.

Why does he always come and go mysteriously?

Oh ya!

Chang Ge and I are going to the Lantern Festival.

Chief Wen and Heroine Shen,

would you like to join us in the riddles guess?

Yes, Senior.

We rarely come to River Yu.

And it’s the Lantern Festival now.

For next year,

it will be Brother Mu who accompanies you.

This time,

I’ll accompany you.

I’m not going.

You go yourselves.

I think that

Miss Shen should go there

simply for relaxing.

I’ve been here several times.

I heard of the lively Lantern Festival at River Yu.

But I had never been there yet.

How about attending it

together?

All right.

We should wait no more.

Let’s go.

Let’s go.

[Love in Between]

[Episode 11]

Lanterns!

Have a look.

Lanterns!

The previous one

is interesting!

Look at this colour!

It’s nice!

This is beautiful.

Selling lanterns here!

A lot of people!

Yes!

A lot of people are here.

Lanterns! Lanterns!

Have a look at lanterns!

Have a look at lanterns!

Do you want to try, two young warriors?

Delicious?

How’s it?

There are sugar pies over there.

Let’s go.

Have a look, guest.

Lanterns.

Have a look.

Lanterns.

Lanterns.

You’re here finally.

[Xiangrui Clothes Store]

Let’s go.

Childe,

the things are ready.

This is...

This is the first thing to do.

Dress up for the

Sword Congress.

Any difference?

Sword Congress

is a martial arts assembly that is held once in five years.

The attended spectators will be well dressed.

If you wear this,

you’ll be others’ attention.

Lying.

Lying?

I’m a dog if I cheat you.

But I’ve never worn this before.

Just try it on.

Miss,

please follow me.

What’s this?

The riddles guess.

You’re outdated.

Guess the riddles.

Guess the riddles.

Come with me.

A lantern as an exchange.

Guess the riddles.

Senior!

Look at that butterfly lantern!

Does it look like the one that Master made for us

in Tian Du Summit when we were small?

This is more delicate than ours.

Really nice!

I’ve never seen such nice lanterns when I was small.

Childe, have a guess.

There’s the only shadow when standing alone in desolation.

Living alone.

Awesome.

Busy planting the grains.

The grain in ear.

Boss,

the riddles are too simple!

Father.

Childe is really intelligent.

You may choose one.

I want that!

That?

That is the cheapest one.

I want that.

All right.

Take this.

Thank you, boss.

Chief Wen.

Where’s Zhu Yan?

Over there.

Boss,

I’ll not guess the riddles here.

You can just ask me any riddles.

All right.

Don’t wait for the wind at dawn.

Evening Primrose.

Unbearable heat at the main hall.

Slight heat.

It seems that I met experts today.

All right. The last one...

See no bugs, but the holes.

See no bees, but the hives.

See no silkworms, but the silk.

See no people, but the umbrella.

Lotus root.

Childe is really knowledgeable.

Please pick one.

I want a butterfly lantern too.

Unfortunately,

the last butterfly lantern

was taken away by the previous childe.

You still have some materials there.

May I use them?

Yes, you can.

Come on in.

Thanks.

A good-looking girl

looks nice in any costume.

Come here quickly.

Come, let us see.

Look, the shoulders are fit.

The sleeves are fit as well.

The skirt suits well too.

You’re pretty. You look nice in any costume.

At River Yu,

there are very few of such a pretty girl.

Ugly!

I’m lying.

Miss,

your pouch.

Thank you.

Thank you, boss.

Thank you, guest.

Don’t wear it for today.

I’ll keep it for you first.

Zhu Yan! Zhu Yan!

Wait for me.

Look!

I won a lantern for you.

No need.

I’ve bought this.

Is this presentable?

Yes, very much!

You want to gift me?

This is for Ah Fei.

You want to gift this for a girl?

Yes, why?

Girls won’t like a big yellow dragon.

Then, let’s go to change it.

Aren’t they Doctor Zuo and Ah Fei?

Zhu Yan!

This is for you.

I haven’t been so happy for a long time.

Thanks a lot, Chief Wen.

You’re welcome.

After Miss Shen marry into Mu’s clan,

you may often walk on

this street later.

Actually, I’m not sure

whether to marry or not.

Don’t misunderstand, Chief Wen.

Once a teacher, always a teacher.

Since master wanted me to marry,

I’ll marry then.

I think

Miss Shen shouldn’t marry,

if you aren’t willing to.

Shouldn’t marry?

In one’s life,

everyone wishes to obtain what one desires.

If Miss Shen wishes

to express gratitude to master or the clan,

there’ll be no regret to marry.

Otherwise,

Miss Shen should ask yourself

what you want exactly.

What do I want?

Yes.

Always ask yourself

and you’ll know.

It’s raining.

Let’s go home quickly.

The rain is getting heavier.

Hurry up!

Look at this riddle.

Fear to move on, fear to retract.

Guess four words.

It’s raining. Let’s head back.

Enjoy the present moment.

I told you yesterday there are three matters.

I haven’t told you the third matter yet.

You may say it now.

I always wish to

open a medical hall at a warm place

where there are mountains and rivers.

There will be patients attending every day.

And I can earn money

for my wife to buy clothes

and jewelers.

Two qian per patient.

How much will be earned a day?

This is unnecessary to count.

You treat your wife nice.

Do you wish to...

What do you mean?

Nothing.

You want

to tell me about the third matter, don’t you?

The sudden rain of today

makes me not think of it.

Take your time.

Yun Luo,

I don’t know

your birthday yet.

I was sold by my parents when I was small.

So, I’m unsure of my birthday.

How old are you this year?

Maybe 18.

How about making today as a

birthday for you?

Today?

Yes.

Today is Su Yun Luo’s 18th birthday.

Happy birthday!

Thank you.

What happened to you?

You like the Lantern Festival.

So, I guessed the riddles.

Why do you dislike it suddenly?

The Lantern Festival is boring.

Uninteresting.

What did happen to you?

Everyone is crowded to guess the riddles.

There’s nothing fun by having a lantern as a reward.

It’s inedible and useless for cultivation.

It’s very boring.

You shouldn’t say this.

Anyway, I dislike lanterns anymore.

Just throw it away.

Ghost Boy.

Chief Wen.

Amazing!

We have to wait for a person

to alter your look now.

After that,

you will be able to return on track soon.

You have to refrain from killing.

The longer you refrain from it,

the better you control your devil charm.

By then, I can give you the injection

of drugs soon.

If not, your effort will be wasted.

You may come to me after consideration.

Go to Shan Shui Du Fraction

to get the news of a doctor, named Zuo Qing Ci.

Don’t reveal your identity.

If you cheat me,

I’ll cut off your head

as well as hers.

But you should know that

you’ll only have a few days to live,

after your real body is reinstated.

Won’t you regret?

Solitary Sound in a Thousand Miles, Myriad Despair,

Kindle Lamp, Guihong,

Baiji Scenery, Fangwai Ghost,

Qingli, Kushan and Tian Du Star.

What are you doing here?

Hurry up!

Take it.

I can participate just with this?

Of course!

I’ve begged for it from Uncle Xiu for a very long time.

He would believe me

Phoenix Clan has their heir already.

You really have your way!

[Zhu Yan, Phoenix Clan]

What’s the origin of this Phoenix Clan?

A small clan that waned a long time ago.

A small clan?

I prefer Southwest First Warrior.

Are you silly?

Never mention Southwest here.

Why?

Zhaomu Pavilion detests The Blood Wings of Southwest

very much.

You mention Southwest here.

Do you wish to be beaten?

The Blood Wings has nothing wrong.

People of Zhong Jing just don’t know it well.

Right and evil are irreconcilable.

The underworld is not as simple as you think.

Where did you come from?

It’s going to start soon.

Let’s go.

Martial Art Alliance.

Who are they?

Nowadays, the martial art circle is dominated by Martial Art Alliance,

led by Zhengyang Palace

with four major clans followed behind.

They are the clans’ masters.

The chief of San Shui Du, Wen Si Yuan.

The master of Xiaozong, Lian Qi Shan.

The master of Zhaomu Pavilion, Kou Subai.

The master of Mu’s clan, Mu Xiu.

And the middle one is my master,

the chief of Martial Art Alliance. The master of Zhengyang Palace.

Immortal Jin Xu.

Martial Art Alliance.

Let’s welcome the chief of Martial Art Alliance.

Every hero,

this is the 10th year of Martial Art Alliance.

We’ve been striving hard

for prosperity,

assembling the spectacular scene.

Since I was born in this world,

I’d take my responsibility to make contributions.

The purpose of holding the Sword Congress at River Yu today is

to explore the outstanding

young talents

among the Martial Art Alliance.

The shortlisted candidate

will inherit the Martial Art Alliance.

The day of passing down to the next generation

is just around the corner.

Martial Art Alliance!

Good!

Good!

Martial Art Alliance!

First apprentice of Zhenyang, Shen Man Qing

will announce the rules of the Sword Congress.

This Sword Congress

is participated by 32 clans.

Each clan or faction is allowed to send one player only.

It’s just a skill exchange. Don’t go any further than necessary.

The winners will go to the next round.

During the contest,

only the martial art of his or her own clan is allowed.

Those who disobey will be barred from the contest.

The Sword Congress, begin now.

First round,

Mu Ying from Mu’s clan versus Liao Fei Yan from Shan Shui Du.

Good!

Mu Ying appreciates Brother Liao’s advice.

I dare not.

Brother Mu, please.

There are excellent and worse players in the Sword Congress.

The opening battle is usually

kicked off by the experts who are expected to win.

Brother Mu from Mu’s clan is also one of them.

So,

he’s the most superior one in this Sword Congress.

Among all these 32 participants,

there’s only one person

who wouldn’t be at a disadvantage,

while competing with Brother Mu.

Who’s that?

Me.

This is uncertain.

There’s still me.

The winner is Mu Ying from Mu’s clan.

[Mu Ying, Mu’s clan]

Senior won.

Great!

Senior is awesome!

Great!

Great!

Senior is great!

If I didn’t jump off,

perhaps Brother Mu

would have caused me injuries or dead already.

Brother Liao, you’re worried too much.

I know the limit.

Brother Mu’s martial skill is excellent.

I’m convinced.

You’re humble.

Great!

Impressive!

Senior is awesome!

Great!

Great!

Next round,

Qin Zhong from Shen Huo Hall versus Wei You Dao from Fei Ying Clan.

Senior.

Most of the participating disciples have arrived.

But there’s one who hasn’t shown up.

Who?

Huo Xi from Yan Lake Gang.

All right. You may leave.

[Huo Xi, Yan Lake Gang]

He’s from Yan Lake Gang. No one would know him.

Sleep.

Have you ever heard

the poem recited by the beggar

at the gate just now?

The poem was composed by the chief of Shan Shui Du, Elder Bai Ji

to comment on the world’s nine experts.

Nine experts?

Solitary Sound in a Thousand Miles, Myriad Despair,

Kindle Lamp, Guihong,

Baiji Scenery, Fangwai Ghost,

Qingli, Kushan and Tian Du Star.

This refers to the nine experts of the period.

The master of Mu Xiu and my master, Immortal Jin Xu

are the Myriad Despair and Kushan Sword respectively.

How about the others?

Baiji Scenery, Elder Bai Ji has passed away for years.

Fangwai Ghost, Doctor Gui hid in Fangwai Valley.

Kindle Lamp, Xie Li Gui secluded himself at Creek Yu.

It’s been 10 years to have no news regarding

Solitary Sound in a Thousand Miles, Sun Si Ruo.

Guihong Knife Shangguan Ku.

He’s passed away as well.

How about Qing Li?

Qingli, Kushan and Tian Du Star.

Qing Li

is the Qingli Sword, Su Xuan.

It’s unnecessary to mention this person.

Su Xuan

is the one that you mentioned to me.

The one who was expelled from Zhengyang Palace.

Qin Zhong from Shen Huo Hall won.

He killed my grandmaster.

Next round,

Zhu Yan from Phoenix Clan versus Yuan Ying Ying from Zhaomu Pavilion.

It’s your turn.

The opponent is a girl.

Be lenient.

At our area,

girls are more fierce than men.

Please give me a seat.

Thanks.

Don’t worry. It’s soon.

Isn’t that Zhu Yan?

Why is he there?

Yuan Ying Ying from Zhaomu Pavilion.

Zhu Yan from Phoenix Clan.

Mimicking of others

is not a hero.

My name is Zhu Yan, not a hero.

You should use martial art of your own clan in the Sword Congress.

If not, you’re disqualified.

Didn’t you know it?

The martial art of Phoenix Clan

is to perform the same tactics that you’ve done to me.

How’s it?

Didn’t you know?

Great!

Fight!

Sister, please keep in mind.

My name is Zhu Yan, not a hero.

The winner is Zhu Yan from Phoenix Clan.

[Zhu Yan, Phoenix Clan ]

You did well!

She’s the first apprentice of Zhaomu Pavilion.

Wang Shang Yuan versus Mo Wen Sheng from Hei Shui Faction.

I wondered about the background of this boy.

It seems that he’s a friend of Chang Ge.

Yu Gu.

Senior.

Senior.

This boy is a friend that Chang Ge met when he left here.

Reportedly, he saved Chang Ge before.

He’s from Phoenix Clan.

I can’t resist to Chang Ge’s pleading.

So, I allowed him to participate in today’s Sword Congress.

You’ve too pampered on these kids.

Although Chang Ge is really talented,

he’s still young and lack of practice.

You should have more constraints on him.

Yes.

The background of a true hero shouldn’t be asked.

His winning shows that

all the major clans don’t seek for innovation,

causing the decline of the talents.

Chief

Time flies,

we’ve been allied for 10 years.

The election for upcoming Martial Art Alliance Congress

is just around the corner.

I wonder what your plan is.

Everyone is looking forward to it.

This matter should not be left to my sole discretion.

I’d like to hear from all of you.

We’ve been together for 10 years.

All of you are still very humble as usual.

Nowadays, the martial art circle is peace and at its heyday.

It all depends on the efforts of you.

For the coming 10 years,

it’s to rely on your wise leadership as well.

What do you all think?

This is for sure!

I don’t care about the future chief.

I come to River Yu this time

just to ask Chief about a matter.

When we were allied back then,

Chief promised earnestly

to help Zhaomu Pavilion to perish The Blood Wings

and take back the half secret scripture.

But you fail to keep his promise now

and keep hindering.

I’d like to know the reason.

Master Kou,

we have free of warfare for a few years.

Zhaomu Pavilion and The Blood Wings

has not intervened of each other already.

Why do you raise the matter again?

Moreover, this involves other clans and factions.

As a chief,

I’d prioritize the sake of the martial art circle,

unless I’m forced to.

I don’t wish conflicts to happen among the clans,

let alone the brutal scene of battling with a cult.

Since I’m still in the position of chief.

Master Kou,

you’d know my difficulties.

Chief is right.

The peace of the underworld

is everyone’s hope.

The winner is Wang Shang Yuan from Qing Shui Hall.

Senior,

this boy dares to call Chang Ge

as brother publicly.

Perhaps he’s not the suspect.

The one who tried to steal Crane Tail

should hide somewhere else.

It doesn’t matter.

I’d like to see

when he will come out.

As you’re wearing a veil,

it makes you more noticeable.

You’d relax and eat the buns like Bai Mo.

Don’t forget that

we’re here to watch the match.

Chu Tian Jiang from Xiaozong Mansion versus Huo Xi from Yan Lake Gang.

Sir, what do you mean?

Don’t worry.

You asked for it.

He has no weapon at all.

Chu Tian Jiang is the first apprentice of Xiaozong.

He could even know the opponent’s stroke.

What’s the origin of this man?

He snatches the white blade by empty hands.

Interesting!

The martial art circle of Zhong Jing owns many hidden talents.

Huo Xi from Yan Lake Gang won.

As I observe, I think he’s more powerful than Mu Ying.

Although Chu Tian Jiang’s talent is ordinary,

he’s still the heir of Xiaozong.

Yet he’s offended.

Perhaps this man’s strength

is higher than Brother Mu Ying and me.

I wish to have a match with him.

How’s the fame of this man?

He’s just an anonymous.

An anonymous?

How could he have such a powerful strength?

He is amazing.

Figure out his detailed background.

Yes.

Yin Chang Ge from Zhengyang Palace v.s. Li Da Yang from Ling Feng Faction.

Great!

Yin Chang Ge won.

[Yin Chang Ge, Zhengyang Palace]

Amazing!

Great!

[Mu Ying, Mu Family]

[Zhu Yan, Phoenix Gate]

[Huo Xi, Yan Hu Gang]

The winners

for today’s Sword Congress are

Yin Chang Ge from Zhengyang Palace.

Mu Ying from Mu’s clan.

Zhu Yan from Phoenix Clan.

Huo Xi from Yan Lake Gang.

Four young warriors, please draw lots

to decide the battle pairs of tomorrow.

I’ll draw first.

Mu Ying from Mu’s clan will battle with Huo Xi from Yan Lake Gang.

The Sword Congress of today ends here.

The Sword Congress will be continued tomorrow.

Let’s go.

[Mu’s Mansion]

Immortal.

What makes your visit here at night?

There’s a matter

I need to verify from Master.

In today’s Sword Congress,

I noticed one person.

Do you mean Huo Xi from Yan Lake Gang?

Yan Lake Gang

has neither extraordinary experts

nor unique scripture handed down.

But, Huo Xi appeared all of sudden

in today’s Sword Congress.

Do you think that

this person covet the Crane Tail?

Any flaws are not allowed in the Sword Congress.

We have to make him reveal his true identity.

You and I knew

who the person is.

Yes.

I know that Mu’s clan has a way to restrain him.

Tomorrow,

I want to see his real identity.

By then,

we could figure out what happened through the clues.

And we could catch the person who covets the Crane Tail

all at once.

It’s not necessary for me to tell

what the person means to you.
