[Sword Snow Stride]

[Episode 15]

[ Mount Qingcheng, Qingyang Sect ]

Where is Wu Lingsu?

Look at this stone tablet.

The late Emperor wrote this.

It does not matter who you are.
[ Even noblemen must dismount ]

You must dismount from your horse before you speak.

Who cares about those words?

You must have a death wish.

Get into formation.

Shenxiao Sword Formation?

Who can break this formation for me?

How about we let someone else have a go at it? He cannot break the Shenxiao Sword Formation.

Has this young man become stronger?

He is using the Chixia Sword Skill.

Is that sword skill very powerful?

It is not powerful at all.

It relies on explosions within your vital energy and borrows them to only produce a little bit of strength.

The more you use it, the worse your injuries will be.

Anyone who practices this technique will not live long.

How did he learn it?

His Highness passed it on to him.

So Xu Xiao deceived him?

Is he unaware that he will harm his own life by using this technique?

He knows.

Have you thought it through?

Although this sword technique is very powerful,

anyone who practices it will die very quickly.

If I can put my life on the line in exchange for the Lin family to have a chance of survival,

in exchange for the Lin family to have a chance of survival,

then I am most willing to die

even if I must do it ten thousand times.

Give it to him then.

[ Chixia Sword Skill ]

How about we guess and see how long he can hold on before he exhausts himself completely?

My guess is

two hours.

Help him break the formation.

Me?

Your Highness, your wish is my command.

How despicable.

So many of you are ganging up on him, yet you call us despicable.

Does that not seem unreasonable to you?

Earlier on, that was the Yuxiao Formation.

Right now, this is the real Shenxiao Formation.

It is very powerful.

The formation can only be broken

if God of Blades Li does something.

Are you not going to do anything?

I will do something if you become my disciple.

Forget it. You don't have to do anything.

I want to have a go at this sword formation as well.

Your Highness.

Your Highness, you must not risk your life in times of danger.

I caused this disaster, so I cannot hide on the sidelines.

Your Highness, I will accompany you and break the formation.

Your Highness. The dead and wounded have been sent back to Beiliang.

I'll lead the troops back to Feng Encampment.

You arrived just in time.

This is the stone tablet that was left behind by the late Emperor

and the Shenxiao Sword Formation that is famous throughout the realm.

Are you brave enough to follow me and break the formation?

Get into formation!

Who exactly are you?

Xu Fengnian.

Prince of Beiliang.

This is Qingcheng, not Beiliang.

You led your troops and charged through the mountain,

but what exactly do you want?

There is a bandit called Meng,

a little girl called Xiao Que,

and a group of mountain bandits who were with Meng.

I want all of them to be accounted for.

If they are alive, I want to see them. If they are dead, I want to see the corpses.

I have never seen them.

In that case, there is nothing to be discussed.

Brother Xu!

Xiao Que'r.

Lord Qingcheng, Wu Lingsu.

Your Highness, you have come from afar.

How about you enter Mount Qingcheng and admire the scenery on the mountain?

[ Wu Ling Su, Lord Qingcheng of Liyang ]

All right.

Your Highness, you alone can enter my Mount Qingcheng.

Your Highness, you cannot do that.

All right.

I will go up there by myself.

You have worked hard. All of you should retreat.

We have not reached Qingzhou.

You must not die.

Of course.

Get ready.

If there are any changes,

charge towards Qingyang immediately.

That young man must be crazy. He really entered alone.

Little girl, are you not worried about him?

There is no danger at all. Why should I be worried?

Are you saying that I am definitely going to do something and save him?

How about we bet 500 mace?

Xu Fengnian can still safely overcome this disaster without you even having to do anything.

This young man has yet to master swordsmanship, so it is impossible for him to be that skilled.

Do you want to bet or not?

Yes!

Can we sneak inside?

We are here.

Xiao Que. You can go inside first.

Your Highness, I never expected that you would be brave enough to enter.

Hand them over to me.

Did you trespass into Qingyang Sect just for this country girl from the mountains?

What are your conditions?

Are the man and woman who broke the formation for you earlier your guards?

They behaved unreasonably towards Qingyang Sect.

I want their lives in exchange.

All right. Give them to me, then I will hand both of them over to you.

Your Highness, you can go outside now and bring both of their heads over.

Transactions are not meant to be discussed like this.

This is not merely a transaction.

Your Highness, now that you have entered Mount Qingcheng, your life is in my hands.

You do not have a choice.

He cannot deceive him anymore.

What do you think that young man should do after this?

What should he do?

If he cannot have a discussion, then he should just fight.

Do you think that he is still brave enough to do something?

Why should he be afraid?

The person who is in a dilemma right now

is the one named "Wu".

Do you have a death wish?

I will give you a chance. Hand them over to me.

However, your life is in my hands right now.

Feng Encampment is outside the main gate

and everyone saw me follow you and enter Qingyang Sect.

If you want to kill me, you should first consider if you have the ability

to slaughter everyone outside.

As long as one of them escapes,

Xu Xiao will command the Beiliang Iron Chevaliers to destroy Mount Qingcheng.

After I kill you, I will return to the capital immediately.

I do not believe that Xu Xiao can dash over and find me.

He does not need to dash over here.

The capital will capture your whole family and send them to Beiliang.

Nonsense!

They will give the lives of your family in exchange for Xu Xiao to withdraw his troops.

Set a sprat to catch a mackerel.

You lost.

You understood this situation from the very beginning.

What is so difficult about it?

Qingyang is so insignificant.

How could they be brave enough to kill the Prince of Beiliang out in the open?

Hence, Xu Fengnian had nothing to fear when he entered the sect alone because he had a strong backing.

Uhm. That man is so cunning.

How could he just throw away his life?

I never expected that you would know him so well.

You. Not me.

Remember my 500 mace.

Your Highness, you do live up to your reputation.

That I'm greedy and lustful?

No wonder she kept praising you.

Who has been praising me?

What are you talking about?

All right then.

Just hand those people over to me.

Over at the capital, just tell them I like to abuse my powers and bully others.

The royal family will not blame you.

No need to rush.

There is someone who would like to see you.

Is Meng still alive?

His Highness has the foresight and courage.

His Highness is truly amazing.

Aunt.

Fengnian.

Aunt.

Zhao Yutai.

Do you know her?

I have hidden underneath Tingchao Pavilion for many years.

Every time Xu Xiao and his wife came to see me,

she would be guarding them.

Is she one of Xu Xiao's people?

Do you know about Xu Fengnian's mother?

The consort was the first person in the lord's residence who smiled at me.

I still remember it until this very day.

His mother's last name is "Wu" and she came from the Wu family who is the best at swords.

She was the Sword Champion of the Wu family's previous generation.

The Wu family's swordmasters

all had their own bodyguards

who grew up with the swordmasters.

Are you saying

that she was the consort's bodyguard?

Although she was called a bodyguard, they were more like sisters.

No wonder he calls her his aunt.

Aunt, do not cry.

I am not crying.
[ Bodyguard of the Wu Family, Zhao Yutai ]

I am just so happy.

When my mother died back then, you disappeared completely, Aunt.

Could it be that he imprisoned you over here?

He is my husband.

Then what exactly happened here?

When you were traveling back then and you met them,

many people were paying attention to your identity.

Your friends are your weakness and burdens.

I brought them to Qingyang Sect to protect them.

Yes, Brother Xu.

The people here are so kind to me.

Well... where is Meng?

They have quietly sent him to one of the areas in Beiliang.

Currently, he has a field and he is living really well.

Master says that I am talented.

I am currently a disciple of the Shenxiao Sect as well.

Are you one of my aunt's disciples?

No, she is your uncle's disciple.

But is he not Lord Qingcheng who received that title from the royal family?

Qingyang Sect has treated Beiliang as an enemy for so many years.

Was it all a lie?

We just wanted to sow distrust.

We were keeping an eye on the capital for Beiliang.

Does Xu Xiao know about this?

Of course, he does.

Both of you should have a good chat.

I am going to look around the area to prevent other people from catching sight of this.

Brother Xu, I will come back later to see you again.

If there is a slight oversight regarding the things that I did during these few years,

it will lead to complete chaos.

The general did not dare to leak any secrets

because he was worried that I would encounter danger.

It was a truly complicated plan.

Qingyang Sect was actually spying for Beiliang.

If the Iron Chevaliers leave Beiliang in the future, Mount Qingcheng will be the thoroughfare

and nobody else will have a hold on Beiliang anymore.

It is not only Qingyang Sect.

The things that I have truly done are more severe than this.

Is there truly anything else that could compare to this plan?

All these years,

I have always been looking into the killer who harmed your mother.

Who is there?

Your Highness, hurry up and leave.

Aunt, it's fine. They are with me.

These are your personal matters. I cannot be bothered to listen.

What are you doing over there?

It is this old man's fault.

Do you have a ladder?

I will get down now.

She is Jiang Ni. My servant.

Servant? Do you mean your concubinage?

No. No!

Why have they not come out yet?

We should charge inside.

No need.

God of Blades Li and Jiang Ni are not in the carriage anymore.

Are you saying that…

They have probably gone inside.

Well, that is good.

If the God of Blades is there, His Highness will be safe and sound.

Which god of blades?

Since when has there been a second god of blades?

The one-armed man is Li Chungang.

Is he not dead yet?

No.

Sir, please forgive me. I did not mean that.

Sir, may I ask,

where is His Highness?

He is inside.

Then, why are you out here?

I ate too much for breakfast

and I am a little tired, so I am going to sleep for a little while first.

Do not worry. I left Jiang Ni there.

What is the point of leaving Jiang Ni there?

Since he has returned,

there should not be any major trouble.

Well, I will take my leave first then.

No need.

Aunt, please just say it.

You do not have to hide the matters that concern me from her.

You said earlier that you have been looking into the killer who harmed my mother.

Yes.

Ever since your mother passed away,

I have always been looking into this matter.

Have you managed to uncover the conclusion?

When she passed away, only then did the servants and the general

discover that her body was seriously wounded.

But she was unwilling to reveal the killer that harmed her.

Her opponent was too strong.

My mother was afraid that the killer would harm her whole family if they took revenge.

All these years, I checked the days one by one

and carefully considered the factors and outcomes.

I could approximately guess the time when she got injured.

Back then, she had entered the capital on her own.

Her injuries were probably caused at that time.

When exactly did that happen?

Your Highness, she was pregnant with you back then.

The killer was in the capital.

Did you manage to uncover who it was?

Not yet.

I have not managed to uncover any details about him.

However, not being to uncover it is actually an answer on its own.

The killer must be extremely influential

to be able to cover his tracks completely in the capital.

The general put me in Qingcheng to make known

your uncle's reputation of lustfulness.

Why did Xu Xiao use this approach?

The general wanted me to pass on a message.

He said

that you were unwilling to use the general's method to take over Beiliang.

Yes.

Your Highness, did you kill those bandits?

Yes, I killed them.

If the general was in your position,

he would pick up his blade and kill them too to avenge the dead.

Did he make the arrangements for those bandits?

Yes.

The local authorities surrounded them on all four sides

to force them into Qingcheng.

These people were made to be a test for you, Your Highness.

The general even guessed that you would charge into the palace on your own.

Before it happened, he said that your thoughts and actions

were no different from his own.

He said that you wanted to walk on a new path,

but eventually, you ended up on the path that the general set up for you.

Your Highness, I know that you have held a grudge from the beginning until the end

because the general was unwilling to investigate the cause of the death of your mother.

Your Highness, you must understand

that this matter involves numerous things.

You must keep it a secret.

I understand.

The general said that you are unwilling to kill other people,

but the truth has proven that when it is time to strike with your blade,

you will not be lenient, just like him.

Your Highness, you and the general

are actually the same by nature.

No. I am not like him.

I would never sacrifice my family.

Your Highness, I will not ramble on about the matters that concern you and the general.

But the general has already told me that once you have charged into Qingcheng,

I should hand over all the details to you from my investigations over these few years.

From today onwards, no matter how many years have passed

and even if the general and I are no longer here,

you must continue the investigation and avenge your mother.

Even if he did not say it, I would continue the investigation.

Your Highness, please hold on.

I am going to bring some things for you.

All right.

You are holding on too tightly.

Does it hurt?

No, it does not.

I am sorry.

Why did you not tell me that it hurt?

The consort was a good person.

I remember when I first entered the lord's residence,

I was afraid and sad.

It was her gentleness that allowed me to breathe my most difficult sigh of relief.

Xu Fengnian. I am willing to avenge her with you.

But we are still irreconcilable, just as before.

I have been investigating the killer throughout all these years

and everything that I managed to find is all inside here.

Aunt, when did you marry Wu Lingsu?

I married him before I entered Shenxiao Sect.

Back then, we had Shi Zhen.

Your Highness, he is almost the same age as you.

Where is he?

He is in the capital.

When your uncle was given the title of Lord Qingcheng,

he was ordered to fight against Beiliang.

In fact, he's quite powerful.

So he was taken in as a hostage.

As long as my identity is not revealed, he will be fine.

We must think of a way to rescue him and bring him back.

Your Highness.

You do not have to worry about the matters that concern him.

Please read through this properly

and burn it once you are done.

Aunt, where are you going?

I must attend to certain matters.

I will be back soon.

How about you read it for me?

I will pay you one wen for every word.

Are you crazy?

Your aunt concealed her identity for so many years to investigate this.

It is so important. How could you just ask me to read it?

It is all right.

You should read it by yourself.

What message were you sending?

How long has it been since we last saw Shi Zhen?

He is alone in the capital without anyone he can trust.

He is at risk of having to flee at any moment.

I asked you, what message did you send?

The details about Xu Fengnian's journey. We were already supposed to send this to the capital

to inform them that Xu Fengnian broke through the Sword Formation.

Only then will the capital be more likely to believe our position.

What else?

And the deployment of Beiliang's barracks as well.

It is the only way we can get Shi Zhen back in exchange.

Fengnian's mother treated me like her sister.

My life belongs to her.

It is just the deployment of their barracks. It does not contain anything confidential.

Who asked you to do this?

I am rescuing my son. I do not need anyone to tell me to do that.

When you opened the last message from Shi Zhen,

you started feeling ill at ease.

Did he ask you to do this?

Shi Zhen wants to escape from that dangerous place as well.

He wants to reunite with us.

Now that Shi Zhen is in the capital,

did he offer his services to the royal family?

Of course not.

Well, that is good.

Are you not planning to bring him back?

Are you really going to sacrifice your son's life for Beiliang?

The general has already set out on his journey towards the capital.

Did he tell you that he is going to rescue Shi Zhen and bring him back?

He did not say that.

Then how can you trust him?

If the general does not bring Shi Zhen back

when he travels to the capital this time,

then I will personally enter the capital and rescue my son.

If you really want to inform the capital about Beiliang's military situation,

I will be forced to end my life before Fengnian's mother's soul.

All right. I will not send the message.

Do not let His Highness find out about these matters.

Have you finished reading it?

The one who wanted to harm my mother

is the Liyang royalty.

But aren't you missing concrete evidence?

The exact time that my mother entered the capital is recorded here.

There are two key points.

First, she was recently pregnant with me.

Secondly, back then, the capital wanted to bestow Xu Xiao with the title of lord.

The Liyang royalty had no choice

but to bestow your father with the title of a lord.

He defeated six nations.

If they did not make him a lord, everyone in the realm would be disappointed.

However, the Liyang royalty certainly did not want Beiliang's general to have a young master.

Hence, when my mother became pregnant, it was the most frightening thing to the royal family.

Does it mean that your enemy is the Liyang royalty?

Yes.

Your father must have come to this conclusion as well.

But why did he not raise his troops and storm the capital?

If Beiliang rebelled, the entire country would fall into ruin.

We cannot imagine how many people would die.

Did he refuse to take revenge because of this reason?

It is not that he refused to take revenge.

He did not want to use the entire country as his bargaining token.

What do you mean?

If he had really dispatched his troops back then,

it would be impossible for my mother to survive and leave the capital.

I think the royal family was not shameless enough to strike openly.

They must have assassinated her secretly.

My mother was the first prodigy from the Wu family in almost a hundred years.

The person who killed her must have been highly skilled.

I am afraid that there were more than one of them.

I will look for every single person who ambushed my mother back then

and personally chop off their heads

to hold a memorial for my mother.

There will come a day

when I will personally go to the capital to find out the truth.

Your mother left something behind for you.

What is it?

Come with me.

I will wait here for you to return.

This place is quite far from Qingyang Sect, right?

Qingyang Sect is out in the open.

She preferred peace and quiet.

What is this?

Your mother and I come from the Wu family.

I know. The Wu family was once the top among all swordsmen.

This has not been the case for a very long time.

Li Chungang.

Deng Tai'e.

Nine Swords Huang.

There are numerous powerful swordsmen in the world.

Fate has put the Wu family at a disadvantage.

But the foundation is still here, after all.

There is a foundation and there are also rules.

Back then, the Wu family forbid your mother from getting close to the general.

So she severed ties with the Wu family

and rode her white horse to Liaodong.

That is how they finally got together

and managed to have you, Your Highness.

The Wu family must have been enraged.

When a member of the Wu family leaves, their sword must return home.

However, your mother was disowned by the Wu family,

so it was impossible for her sword to return.

That is why I took her sword

and sealed it here.

Your Highness, before she left,

she told me that if you chose to learn martial arts,

then I should take her sword

and pass it to you.

Beiliang swept through the country

and your mother's sword once made

the country's heroes bow down to her.
[ Daliang Longque ]

Your Highness, she also instructed

that if you in the future,

you happen to meet a good woman who uses a sword,

then you should give this to her as a wedding gift from your mother.

I am afraid that I will never meet a woman who is as kind as my mother.

As long you love that woman, then she is the best in the world.

The big guy in the mountain.

You must be Xiao Que.

The big guy, is he a tiger?

He is a monster.

It is not an exaggeration to call it a monster.

It is a rare beast in Mount Qingcheng.

It is called the Divine Tiger and it is incredibly fierce.

Aunt, have you seen it?

I have fought with it.

It could not defeat me, but I could not defeat it either.

It's a fight.

It is odd.

None of the beasts on Mount Qingcheng can defeat it.

Xu Fengnian will be back soon.

Brother Xu is a really good person.

He even taught me how to blow on a leaf.

Back then, I considered that if I had the chance,

I would like to personally come up with a plan

to help him find a good match.

However, he has you now.

Hold on.

What do you mean by that?

What does that have to do with me?

I never had the chance to find him a suitable match.

It is a pity.

I have always felt he deserves a fairy from heaven.

Come on.

Are we leaving now?

Xiao Que, do you want to go with us?

Brother Xu, I have already dropped the matters that concern you just now.

What do you mean?

Therefore, I cannot go with you.

It would be good for you to stay here as well.

We are in a rush this time.

When I return from my journey, I will come to visit you again.

Sure. I will wait for you.

It is settled then.

What is the matter?

I feel bad for you.

You are unaware that you have missed out on a fairy.

What a good deal.

What did I miss out on?

What does she mean by a good deal?

Stop asking.

Did your mother give you this?

Daliang Longque. It is my mother's sword.

Are you not learning how to use a blade?

This is also my mother's wedding gift for her future daughter-in-law.

Did she really want to use a sword as a wedding gift?

Does it not seem rather brutal?

- Take it.
- What are you doing?

Are you not my servant?

Are you not going to help me carry this sword? Do you want me to carry it by myself?

Is that what you meant?

What else would it be?

Nothing else.

Where is your aunt?

My aunt cannot send me away because she cannot reveal our relationship.

We must make everyone else believe that Qingyang Sect is my enemy.

I understand.

Hence, you cannot leave through the main gate either.

I entered Qingyang Sect and leave holding a sword box.

It doesn't make sense, does it?

So, what are you saying?

So, you need to leave through the side gate

and walk through the forest to get to the mountain path in front.

I will instruct the carriage to wait for you at the corner.

Will ten wen be enough?

- Make it 20.
- Deal.

Did I ask for too little?

That is not right.

Hold on.

You must remember to stick close to the forest as you walk.

You must not enter the mountain.

I am not stupid. Do you think that I do not know the way?

Make sure that you remember.

He is here.

I, Xu Fengnian, swear to remember everything that happened today.

Just you wait.

There will certainly come a day when I return to Qingcheng.

Let him leave.

It must be this way, right?

I heard a roar.

It seems that it's reached a dead-end.

That is so strange.

What kind of beast would dare to fight a Divine Tiger?

Master Wei. Qing Niao. Follow me into the forest.

Why have the birds stopped chirping as well?

Xu Fengnian,

is that you?
