[Sword Dynasty]

[Episode 12]

The Crown Prince's sword style came from that person.

and it is so outstanding.

I'm sure, with in a short time, just like that person,

he will become a top cultivator in Fengming

with his strength surpassing that of His Majesty's.

Impudent!

Who sent you? What are you scheming?

All my beloved subjects, today is an auspicious occasion,

please join me to drink up this wine.

Long Live Our King! Long Live Great Heng!

Long Live Our King! Long Live Great Heng!

Is everyone here?

I'm back again.

Why are you here again?

No, no, no! I'm giving you the grass.

The grass... The Three Yang Grass.

Thank you for the grass. Now that you've given it, why don't you leave?

Actually, I have another matter today. It's to

formally acknowledge my teacher.

Acknowledge teacher?

It's actually to watch you for my sister.

Cave Master Xue! Cave Master Xue!

I really like White Goat Cave.

Will you please accept me as your disciple?

White Goat Cave has been merged into Green Vine Sword School.

If you are a disciple at Green Vine Sword School,

the you'll naturally be a disciple at White Goat Cave.

You've agreed?

I've already accepted Ding Ning as an exception.

Then it's not a big deal to break the rule again.

I don't think Di Qingmei will oppose your becoming my disciple.

To Master above, please accept my bow.

Good, good. Come, get up. Hurry.

- Help him get up. - Brother.

- Greetings, Eldest Senior Brother. - Acknowledged.

Greetings, Senior Brother-in-Law.

- Senior Brother-in-Law? - All of you can sit.

I'm going to the fish market.

Senior Brother-in-Law, why are you going to the fish market?

I'm visiting the Granma Ink.

Can you take me with you?

Take you with me?

I'm not saying you have to take me everywhere.

It's just that I haven't been there even though I've been in Fengming a long time.

Just take me, please?

- Have you heard? - Yes, I have.

The Xie family has lived in Fengming for so long, but you've never been to the fish market?

My father told me that I could go anywhere in Fengming

except the fish market.

I swear. I didn't lie. I really just want to take a look.

I believe you.

Don't drink so much, or you may die.

No problem.

- He told us to drink less. - Right.

- He works at the tavern. - Right.

Ba Mountain Sword Academy? What else have you found?

That palace maidservant used to work at your palace, Your Royal Highness.

Later, she was assigned to work next to the Crown Prince.

His Majesty also knows?

- Chen Xuan! - Present.

On this matter, I want both Holy Capital Surveillance and Bureau of Heavenly Supervision to investigate together.

You must find who exactly is behind the incident.

We accept your command.

Come, let's pour this for you.

Senior Brother-in-Law, is it true that everything can be transacted here? Including the contraband?

- Can I buy too? - Sure,

as long as you go through the middlemen here.

- Still drinking? - You've come.

Senior Brother-in-Law, can I participate in the underground auctions?

Of course you can.

As the heir to a top wealthy family within the Guang Zhong region,

there shouldn't be any problem for you to attend.

However, you must win the trust of the middlemen.

You also have to bid through them.

If people know who the buyer is,

it can lead to disasters.

I'd like to take a lot then. Maybe there is something useful.

- Let's go then. - Let's go.

Next, whatever I say, don't react.

Just think of it as casual chatter. Don't reveal yourself.

What is it?

I think someone wants to kill me.

To dare doing it in the fish market, he must be a desperate outlaw.

Kill... Kill you?

I don't know who he is,

but right now, both our lives are in your hands.

You have to listen carefully to every word I say from now on.

You cannot miss anything.

You... You go ahead.

That sword shop that we just passed by,

the owner isn't an ordinary person.

He is also connected to the real owner of the fish market.

When you go back that way, enter the sword shop

and start counting the time

After 50 breaths, tell the shop owner immediately

that someone wants to commit killing in the fish market, at the Unhappy Ghost Pier.

Enter the sword shop, 50 breaths, Unhappy Ghost... I've memorized it.

See you soon.

See... See... See you.

I was only going to visit the old grandma for the new year.

Someone actually forces me to leverage the fish market's strength.

Your Majesty, are you doubting me?

Someone from Ba Mountain Sword Academy

was used by you?

The entire world belongs to Your Majesty.

Why are we talking about Ba Mountain Sword Academy?

I like what you're saying.

Are you worried about something?

Tell me.

If he really came back,

what could he do to me?

Your Majesty has entered the Eighth Realm,

you are invincible in the world.

That's why you are my queen.

You know my heart.

You are the master of the world.

Aren't you too?

You are the Queen of the world.

[Unhappy Ghost Pier]

Go to the sword shop. Where is it?

[Sword Shop]

Sword shop! Sword shop!

Boss, hurry!

No, 50 breaths.

1, 2, 3, 4,

5, 6, 7, 8... 18.

Do you want to buy something?

No, no.

Buy sword, buy sword... 30, 36, 38, 39, 40.

Something is happening?

No, no, no.

45, 46, 48, 50! Someone is killing people at the Unhappy Ghost Pier!

Hurry, hurry!

It's the smell of Mock Strawberry.

Don't you know Heng people really look down at poisoning swords?

Who are you exactly? How dare you want to kill here?

You are too audacious.

Although we don't know how you discovered us,

but after discovering us, you still dared to lure us to make a move. Even though this is the fish market,

we can still leave after killing you.

Just try.

Be careful!

Didn't I say 50 breaths?

Why did you come early?

Early? Maybe I miscounted.

I want him alive. It'll benefit the fish market.

How do you want it done?

The Holy Capital Surveillance should be interested in him.

You are very close to Wang Taixu.

You should know that anything in the dark

should be resolved in the dark.

But when the court is involved, it will bring out disasters.

I understand. But, the key point is that

the people who want to attack me are from the court.

I still want to come to the fish market in the future.

If those behind me can't be restrained,

there will be no rules in the market.

Also, if there are any incidents,

the people from Two-Story Tower will be the front line.

I will send them out of the fish market to give to Wang Taixu.

This time, you lured them to attack

by using the fish market's force.

Next time, let's not have this kind of incidents again.

No one likes to be used.

It won't happen again.

We should go too.

We don't need to do anything with that?

The fish market person has spoken. Why are you still worried about it?

Senior Brother-in-Law.

He's already been dead for such a long time.

Where did the descendant come from?

Ye Celeng came back from the overseas expedition. Zhao Zhan died.

Song Shenshu and Marquis Dugu were killed consecutively.

have continued to move around in Fengming.

Nangong Shang's death.

His strength will surpass His Majesty's.

The palace maidservant's hidden attack creates wild thoughts.

Everything here may not seem to be connected,

but there is an extremely secretive connection hidden inside.

Everything started

from the reappearance of Nine-Death Silkworm Divine Art in the martial arts universe.

Even though the descendant is not clearly visible,

but

many people are intrigued.

Superintendent, Wang Taixu has brought in a cultivator.

What is special about it?

He is a cultivator who tried to assassinate Ding Ning in the fish market.

His cultivation level is at the Fifth Realm. There were two other cultivators at the scene.

One is at Fourth Realm, the other at Fifth Realm. Those two have been killed.

But their corpses remain and can be examined.

Early tomorrow morning, you will personally escort that man to the Great Floating Water Prison.

Yes.

If everyone is as patient as you two in doing business,

the fish market wouldn't have lasted.

I thought this deal was going to drag longer.

I didn't know Master Zhao Si couldn't wait.

Have you ever given anyone else

your clues for Lone Mountain Sword Trove?

Why are you asking?

Liang Lian has a dispute with Two-Story Tower.

The assassin attacking that tavern youngster actually came from your Cloud Water Palace.

I don't want you to ally with Liang Lian.

Heng Kingdom annihilated our Lie Kingdom and Qian Kingdom.

Even if you've lost hope in restoring the homeland, you should not ally with the enemy.

How do you know that I'm allied with Liang Lian but not simply using each other?

What's the difference? Isn't it all for the Lone Mountain Sword Trove?

Liang Lian cooperates with you.

It's not necessary for Heng, but for himself.

Since we are talking business, then let's not get off at a tangent.

For such a valuable news about Lone Mountain Sword Trove,

I won't sell it for a regular price.

I will use my Lone Mountain Sword Trove to exchange for your Lone Mountain Sword Trove.

Previously, I covered up the fact when speaking with Miss Shang.

I actually also have a piece of the clue to Lone Mountain Sword Trove.

The rumor has been that the clue has two parts.

One is at Cloud Water Palace, and the other is at Ba Mountain Sword Academy.

Is the rumor mistaken?

We will know if we compare the clues.

Master Zhao Si can't be using a falsified one to fool me, right?

Just a joke.

Being serious is really boring.

It seems that the clue to Lone Mountain Sword Trove

is really in three parts.

Do you see anything more about it?

The paths are messy. No logic to speak of.

We probably have to wait for the three pieces to be together

in order to solve the puzzle.

Very interesting.

I don't have any news about a descendant.

I know where it is. It's at the Great Floating Water Prison.

I heard it from Superintendent Chen. But, it's very complicated inside.

One person cannot sort through it by himself.

Cloud Water Palace specializes in water techniques.

A water prison is not difficult for us.

Why are you here?

I wanted to help you understand the details,

soo I brought the Junior Brother who was also at the scene.

If you can investigate everything clearly this way, then there's no need to involved the fish market people.

You are really quick-witted.

Master Mou, do you have any clues?

My Brother-in-Law is really righteous in supporting justice.

Why are there so many cultivators who want to kill him?

Right, I'm just an ordinary youngster in the marketplace.

In Fengming, I don't think I have any enemies.

You consider yourself an ordinary youngster in the marketplace?

He was awe-inspiring in Tushan County.

He then went to the Tiger Wolfe Army's camp to duel with General Liang in a stunning fight.

Now the whole world knows.

In all these incidents, you were always there.

In the future, be cautious whenever you can.

Just based on your connection with Wang Taixu,

many disasters can come your way.

If it's a true disaster, I won't be able to evade it. Please investigate it thoroughly.

Tell me about the details from that day.

That Ding Ning is truly extraordinary.

He actually got the fish market people to help him.

Aside from that?

A live one was caught. The key point is

that assassin actually

came from Cloud Water Palace.

Who is so powerful to get Bai Shanshui to lend assistance?

My guess is that

it was an exchange of favors.

In exchange for the freely access into and out of Fengming?

Yes.

Then I know who asked Bai Shanshui for help.

- Master. Eldest Senior Brother. - Master. Eldest Senior Brother.

- Ding Ning. - How did you have time to come over today?

This is a list of the outstanding cultivators for the Sword Trials.

Hong Yang Academy made the ranking assessment based on

recommendable young talents from all the qualified cultivation sites.

List of Sword Trials outstanding talents?

Is the ranking accurate?

Hong Yang Academy is responsible for the registration of cultivators in Great Heng.

This list was edited by them and should be the most authoritative.

Number 48? Who is Number 1?

Number 1, Ye Haoran,

expected cultivation,

Fourth Realm's intermediate stage.

There are many strong cultivators in Fengming. Even Senior Brother Jiang Li didn't make it into the top 30.

You just entered Third Realm. You must be careful.

This list only lists the top 120,

but already there are 16 whose expected cultivation has reached Fourth Realm.

Because of this list, this year's Min Mountain Sword Trials will be very different.

The pamphlet lists many people, but

when the Sword Trials begins, many people on the list won't be there.

But, Master, it's only six months until Min Mountain Sword Trials.

Also, most of the people listed here have already reached Third Realm.

In such a short time, it doesn't seem likely that the cultivation level will change.

Why did you say many people listed here won't be at the Sword Trials?

You can't see it? Only the top 50

are qualified to enter the Min Mountain Sword Trials.

What about those outside of the top 50? They will definitely want to defeat those among the 50

in order to attend the Min Mountain Sword Trials.

That's why this outstanding talent list

is equivalent to a challenge list.

Doesn't this mean the Min Mountain Sword Trials has already started?

That's why it's a disadvantage to you.

If you accept challenges, your time for cultivation will be even less.

I won't accept any challenges.

If you don't accept challenges, I would feel bored.

Master, I still need to cultivate.

Otherwise, when I'm really at Min Mountain Sword Trials, how will I bring honor to you?

However, why hasn't there been such a list in the previous years?

This year, the Treasury has reduced a lot of funds that's distributed to local areas.

That's why Hong Yang Academy has decided to do some business to supplement income.

This thin pamphlet is actually quite expensive.

But there hasn't been any big disasters.

Shouldn't they add funds? Why did they reduce funding?

It must be because of Lu Mountain Conference.

From this moment on, it's only three months

Lu Mountain Conference where Great Heng will sign a peace accord

with the Kingdoms of Xian, Mou and Li.

Even though Great Heng is strong and powerful,

the King has even entered Eighth Realm,

but to prevent unexpected anomalies,

the preparation for possible battles must be done.

How are will those three kingdoms fight us?

King of Xiang is surrounded by women every day.

King of Li is such a coward that he won't dare to fight.

The only possible problem is the Mou Kingdom.

They have a ghost-like army.

But comparing the strengths between Mou and Great Heng,

even if we fight, they can't last long enough.

It's not a matter of whether someone dares to fight.

Do you think His Majesty wants to fight?

If you like fighting for things with the other three on a regular basis,

and you have the same cultivation level,

but one day, your cultivation level suddenly surpasses theirs,

won't you use the opportunity to threaten them?

And what will you grab from them?

This can't be...

I'm asking you a question.

If you like fighting for things with the other three on a regular basis,

- your cultivation levels are... - No one talks!

I am Xie Changsheng, from the top wealthy family in the Guang Zhong area.

May I ask your name?

Xie Changsheng!

She is my auntie.

Auntie?

I'll take care of it here. You can rest in the back.

I need to talk with you. Come with me.

Auntie.

I know you want to bring honor to Xue Wangxu.

But why did you take the initiative to go to Mou Qinggong?

If you ignore my words in the future,

I won't care whether you live or die.

I went to Mou Qinggong so that I can take a look of the Great Floating Water Prison.

You went inside?

No.

But I know the approximate direction. It's better to have some clues than none at all.

When I was sneaked attacked at the fish market,

the attackers dipped their swords in poison from Qian Kingdom.

They should be from the Cloud Water Palace.

Perhaps Bai Shanshui has allied with Liang Lian?

Please investigate it, especially check the people around Liang Lian.

Alright, I'm going right now.

Be cautious.

Fan Zhou, do you understand?

For you to move so freely in Fengming,

our general has taken on a huge risk.

And look at those people you sent.

They are so ignorant and audacious to make their moves in the fish market.

They not only failed at the assassination, one of them was caught alive.

He is now in the hands of Holy Capital Surveillance.

What are you scheming?

They failed.

Outlaws must have what outlaws should have.

Those three the real poisonous snakes.

The are not the ignorant and audacious scums that you'are talking about.

It must have been bad luck.

Otherwise, those three are more than strong enough

to kill a youngster who just entered Third Realm.

It shouldn't have been a problem.

There must be fighters with the strength of grandmasters in the fish market.

Your three poisonous snakes

must have been like you

to have underestimated the fish market.

Today, the one that's alive has been sent to the Great Floating Water Prison.

Great Floating Water Prison?

What can they find in the Great Floating Water Prison?

Even if they find something, they still can't connect to you and Liang Lian.

What are you worried about?

Compared to the one that's alive,

I am more worried about the reckless action you'll take next.

Unlike you, who are so scared.

Isn't he just a martial artist in Fengming?

I'll personally get rid of him for you when the time comes.

Then please do it.

I wont' say farewell.

Who is entangled with Liang Lian?

Inside this,

what is the hidden secret?

Proprietress, for you to come here,

is there any business that you want to do?

I've always thought Cloud Water Palace was righteous.

I didn't expect you to do dirty business.

I've always done things as I wish.

I don't force myself to be righteous.

Even when you do as you wish, you shouldn't help someone like Liang Lian.

That's Cloud Water Palace's business. None of your concern.

I don't want to get involved in your business. But for the person next to me,

please stay away from him.

I won't walk you out.

General.

General.

You... don't really need to remind them or threaten them.

What they should do,

they should know what's appropriate.

General, your body... You have fully recovered?

The Queen sent Xue Wangxu to challenge me.

If I'm not injured at all, wouldn't it embarrass the Queen?

It's really wonderful that your body is fully recovered.

It's most difficult to understand what Bai Shanshui wants.

Only with General's powerful strength, will they be under control.

Just remember, those traitors don't really care about death.

To cooperate with them, the most important

is to protect our own benefits.

I understand.

You are really a stinky man. The house stinks now.

This Sperm Ambergris Ointment is really good.

If you don't like the smell, I'll buy fragrant incense for you tomorrow.

Little Aunt, I can't reach my back.

Forget it.

You saw it when I was young and taking baths.

How was the investigation?

You guessed it right.

Liang Lian went to Bai Shanshui.

What do you think?

Even that kind of assassination couldn't hurt you,

it seems you are more sure than I had thought.

I'm still moving too fast.

If it weren't for some good luck, and because of Master,

I wouldn't have encountered these happenings ever since I entered White Goat Cave,

nor could I have reached the current cultivation level.

Such a pamphlet came out for this year's Min Mountain Sword Trials.

You saw it. How sure are you?

To be frank, I don't feel sure much.

White Goat Cave's sword scriptures are insufficient.

If I really attend the Min Mountain Sword Trials,

at most I'll have the cultivation level of medium stage of the Third Realm.

I must find away to absorb

something stronger.

Even you don't have the confidence to win.

Are those top ranked really that strong?

The really strong ones aren't listed in that pamphlet.

I've finally understood the Queen's ways after these years.

When she does something, she'll keep some aside.

What's not listed in the pamphlet are much stronger.

These things are too complicated.

I'd better do my cultivation.

The simple Zhangsu Qianxue is worth cherishing even more.

LIttle Auntie, come down to eat!

Brother-in-Law!

Brother-in-Law, let's go!

What are you doing here?

There are people listed on the pamphlet doing challenges today.

Master is already waiting in the carriage.

Who?

They say is the 37th-ranked Chen Liufeng and 35th-ranked Fan Wuqu.

Not going.

You...

This... is it for Auntie?

Give it to me.

Isn't Master waiting for you?

I'll give it to Auntie. Let me go.

Wow, so many people. Come look quickly.

It's all because of that pamphlet from Hong Yang Academy.

If they are fighting during normal times, there wouldn't be so many people.

Now that the talent list has come out, people on the list

naturally want to see what the 35th and 37th-ranked are like.

And those that are not in the pamphlet, they want to see why they're not listed.

It's already started. Let's go and see!

Make way please.

Master,

I think that one will win.

They are using the same swords.

That's the Tipless Black Iron Sword especially made for the Sword Trials.

Of course they are the same.
