Greetings, Scorpion King.

Here we are, my ghost friends.

Why are you angry?

Get away!

My ghost brother,

why are you so sissy and angry?

Do you think I'll be scared?

Enough.

Scorpion King,

the reason we follow Chief Zhao

is that we are tired of fighting and killing.

We want to quit.

The Xianxia Sect has nothing to do with our Ghost Valley.

So

don't count us in.

What a coincidence.

What Chief Zhao likes

is your killing skills.

If devils don't kill, then what do they do?

Farming and collecting rent?

Even Chief Zhao wouldn't dare to talk to our leader this way.

You brat!

"You brat"?

Here is some powder for deodorization.

You wicked woman, how dare you to poison him?

Give me the antidote!

How dare you?

In my presence,

how could you be rude to our allies?

Give him the antidote.

Yes.

Chief Zhao asked everyone here to wipe out the Xianxia Sect.

He has his reason for that.

If you are not willing to do it,

we could just go separate ways

in a peaceful manner.

However, in the future,

we could be either friends or foes.

Changing Ghost.

Am I right?

Scorpion King,

things are not that bad.

If Chief Zhao wants to wipe out

the puny Xianxia Sect,

I will just follow his order.

That's very good then.

By the way,

I will send Pretty Arhat to go with you,

just in case.

My brothers!

Let's go.

Evil Bodhisattva,

tell Pretty Arhat

to leave some survivors

to spread the news.

Spread the news?

To whom?

To the entire martial arts world.

The century-long established Xianxia Sect

was decimated by the Ghost Valley.

I want to see who can stay aloof hearing that.

Changing Ghost,

you rank first in the Ten Devils.

Yet you gave up the privileges

and served those bastards?

How delightful.

That is really delightful!

Although that Lunatic Wen is crazy,

for better or worse, he is in the same boat as us.

If we sink,

he won't survive.

Since we've already joined the Ghost Valley,

is going back

a choice?

Do you think we can live if we don't go back?

Let's not talk about Wen Kexing first. That crazy guy is mentally unstable.

It's crazy that those ghosts leaving the valley

are enough to turn the entire world against us

like they're afraid that this world wouldn't hate us more.

If only Gao Chong survived that incident

and brought back his allies for another war on Mount Qingya--

Nonsense!

How is Zhao Jing different from that Lunatic Wen?

What Zhao Jing wants is no more than a war

between the Ghost Valley and those righteous clans.

He wants to kill us and them.

Changing Ghost.

If you serve Zhao Jing as his lackey,

you may earn yourself some fame and have a good ending.

But Happy Ghost and I will not.

Our bloody hands

cannot be cleansed.

If we both serve Zhao Jing as his blade,

what benefits could we expect in the end?

Lustful Ghost,

what's the point of saying these things now?

We have betrayed that Lunatic Wen and we can't go back.

Under Zhao Jing's wings,

at least, we have one way out.

If you can't accept it,

you could just go back to the Ghost Valley

and beg Lunatic Wen

for his mercy.

You haven't been

in the Ghost Valley for long.

I'm afraid you don't know

how Lunatic Wen took over the Ghost Valley.

It's said that

when he ascended to power, in everyone's presence,

he ate the former chief of the Ghost Valley alive,

piece by piece,

which totally frightened everyone.

That's fake.

In front of everyone,

he peeled off the skin of the former chief alive.

Chief!

From today on,

I'm the supreme!

So Mr. Wen met you when he was a kid,

but why didn't Grand Master take him back?

Your grand master was occupied with some important affairs

and couldn't go with those who were heavily wounded.

So he promised them that in three months,

he would take them back to the Four Seasons Manor.

But who would have thought

that when he went back to that village,

it had been leveled off?

That incident then

became a scar that your grand master secretly bore.

When my junior disciple, Qin Jiuxiao, became an adult

and went through the ceremony of joining the sect,

your grand master said he ranked third.

I knew then

that he regretted it to such an extent.

They have already been saved,

yet you were somehow separated.

What a pity.

It was so close.

Master Wen could have grown up with you.

Then he must have recognized you before you did.

But

why didn't he admit that he is Zhen Yan?

Zhen Ruyu was the adopted son of Old Zhen of the Healer Valley.

Maybe his family name was "Wen,"

so he might not want to hear "Zhen" again.

But why not?

The former chief expelled them from the sect.

What happened to Hero Zhen's family after that?

-Master. -Enough, kid.

Don't touch a raw nerve.

Look at Wen Kexing.

Does he seem like he has been disciplined by his parents?

Master Ye!

Are you saying that…

Could it be that Hero Zhen…

Maybe the Zhen couple

died long ago.

This must be something he doesn't want to talk about.

If he doesn't mention it,

don't bring it up first. Do you hear me?

Good kid.

It doesn't matter if he doesn't accept me as his senior.

I will always consider him as my junior.

I am just sad that

a good person such as Hero Zhen

didn't get a good ending.

Master.

Why do good people end up in the worst way?

Father,

Master Long,

and the Zhen family.

Even Mr. Rong Xuan

didn't do anything evil.

Destiny is hard to predict.

Life is unexpected.

All people with emotions suffer.

Not just good guys.

Zhou Xu, I think your good deeds kind of paid off.

-You almost-- -Mr. Wen!

No, it's Master Wen.

Can I call you that?

Old Monster, why are you still here?

You can be here, so why can't I?

We're going to the Four Seasons Manor.

Why are you coming with us?

You take your way and I will take mine. It's none of your business!

I dare go places with extreme danger,

let alone a manor.

Fine.

The lord of the manor is here.

If he accepts your visit, I will not say otherwise.

If Master Ye is willing to visit our manor,

we'll be pleased to welcome you.

I've long heard the great name of divine husband-wife physicians.

They were both elites of the elites. What a divine couple they were.

Why did they give birth to such an annoying kid?

What a pity.

But no matter what,

you will always be their child.

My rascal disciple owed a lot to your parents.

This debt…

I'll pay them back as his master.

Little brat.

Tell me your wish.

Listen.

The dead can't come back to life.

That is the only thing I can't do.

I'm afraid there aren't many things beyond my capability.

Do you have a wish? Just tell me.

I will surely help you realize it.

Listen.

I'm not helping you.

This is what you deserve.

Wen Kexing.

Please tell me your wish.

Otherwise,

I'm afraid

I won't die in peace.

I only have one wish.

Cure Zhou Xu.

If you manage to do so, all our previous debts are clear.

But make sure his life span is not shortened

and his martial arts remain the same.

You brat!

Do you think that will be difficult for me?

Though I don't have the solution,

I know who does.

You guys just stay in the Four Seasons Manor

and wait for my return.

Master Ye.

Who are you looking for?

How long shall we wait for you?

If even he can't save you,

I will…

Hey, Old Monster!

Ye Baiyi!

He's not like a 100-year-old man at all,

but a child when he's in a rush.

What Old Monster meant

is your wound is curable, right?

He likes to brag a lot.

How do I know whether he was about to say,

"I will repay you by cutting off my head" or "I will host your funeral"?

Did you hear that?

Your master's wound can be cured!

What great news.

Master Ye is very capable.

He meant what he said.

We can go home now!

Let's go home!

STOP AT THE BEST TO HAVE DIRECTION, DIRECTION MAKES THE HEART STILL

Father,

your calligraphy is getting more vigorous and integrated.

I like it so much.

Could you stamp it and give it to me?

You little barbarian.

You're so good at flattery.

Everything I have

is yours.

Here you are.

Zhao Jing.

It's me, Qiufeng.

Why won't you see me?

Please let Chief Yu in.

Zhao Jing.

I miss you so much.

Zhao Jing.

It has been a while since we met.

You look better than ever.

How have you been, Qiufeng?

Nowadays, the Yueyang Sect is in order

and strictly guarded.

Compared to the late Gao…

It's so different from when the late Gao Chong was in charge.

The tea is still as good as it was.

Qiufeng,

I haven't heard from you for a long time.

You didn't even show up at the Heroes Conference.

Could you maybe

get caught up with something?

Zhao Jing.

On the day the Heroes Conference was held,

there were so many incidents.

Zhao Jing, I heard after you took charge of the Five Lakes Alliance,

you've had lots of things done in a short time.

But why leave this issue remained untouched?

Your alliance endured a lot of hardships to arrest Tragicomic Ghost.

Then she was taken away for no reason.

Why did you as the chief

pay no attention to it?

What do you mean?

Nothing really.

I just heard some rumors,

saying that the Tragicomic Ghost is called Luo Fumeng,

your ex-fiancée.

You broke the engagement on your wedding day

and eloped with the daughter of a wealthy observer in West Zhejiang.

This bride-to-be was greatly humiliated.

She was so angry that she became insane.

Ever since then,

the fair lady has disappeared,

but a demon who only kills unfaithful men has emerged.

Zhao Jing.

I don't think that's true.

You're always honest and upright

and are deeply in love with your late wife.

Well…

How is it possible for you to do such absurd things?

Have some tea.

I've had the slanderer severely beaten

and hurried here to warn you.

Upon taking charge of the alliance,

your great ambitions are to be realized.

You must take precautions against those slanderers out there

who are trying to tarnish your reputation.

The tea is good. Enjoy it.

It's good.

Where did Yu Qiufeng find out

about something that happened so long ago?

The henchmen I sent to transfer the Tragicomic Ghost

did succeed at first,

but in the end, all died in Yueyang Sect.

Is Fumeng being kept by this guy?

That rat dare to make up such rumors about you!

I will wipe out his Mount Hua Sect!

Father, please don't be angry.

Anger harms your body.

What would I be angry for?

Yu Qiufeng is merely a clown.

If a dog bites you,

does it make sense to bite it back?

For a mad dog, just beat it to death.

Yes, Father.

I'm going to pull out the mad dog's tongue.

Hold on!

Xie'er.

How many times have I told you?

You're always so imprudent and rash.

Mount Hua Sect is a noble and established school.

If the chief dies right after he visits us,

that will just invite gossip.

Forget it.

The less trouble, the better.

Let's wait until they leave Yueyang.

But Father, that guy slandered you like that.

I can't take it for one more second.

If the rumor spreads…

Why should I be scared?

An upright person is not afraid of gossip.

Besides, taking his life is easy.

Enough.

Qingcheng Sect is waiting for me

to plan an attack on the Ghost Valley.

You may leave now.

Yes.

If Fumeng is really kept by Yu Qiufeng…

Wuyang!

Father, what is your order?

Help me send the ghosts a letter.

Father, most people of the Ghost Valley

have set off to take care of the Xianxia Sect.

Only Lustful Ghost is holding the fort now.

He'll be enough.

Yes.

WINE

Zhou Xu,

you two go ahead and look for inns.

I'm running out of alcohol. I'm going to buy some.

Remember to fill up my wine bag.

Hey! Why should I do that for you?

Am I your family's servant?

By the way, fill up my flask as well.

So you want Zhuyeqing or Nu'erhong?

Whichever.

Mr. Wen.

WINE

-Fill up with Kaoliang liquor. -Yes, sir.

CORNELIAN CHERRY WINE, CINNAMON WINE

CHINESE BAIJIU, ABSINTHE, CORNELIAN CHERRY WINE, CINNAMON WINE

The girls from the Department of the Unfaithful were here.

Did Gu Xiang guide them here?

CORNELIAN CHERRY WINE, CINNAMON WINE

At first, Ghoul took us into hiding for a few days.

Later on, except for Ms. Gu Xiang,

no one else came to look for us.

When he's upset, Ghoul lost control again,

cried for human flesh every day,

and looked at us with hungry eyes.

It was intimidating.

So we got him drunk

and quietly ran away from him.

Later, Beauty Ghost sent a message to us,

saying she saved Master

and was accompanying her during her recovery.

She warned us not to be rash.

So since then,

you have never met anyone else from the Ghost Valley?

Yes,

except for Ms. Gu Xiang and Beauty Ghost.

The girls in our group are weak in martial arts.

Without your protection, Chief, and Master's,

I am afraid we would be everyone's prey.

We've been hiding for quite some time.

The storm is gradually subsiding.

Ms. Gu Xiang said you were in Shu.

We've searched around for your trace.

Thank goodness, we were lucky enough to encounter you.

Chief,

there are dozens of girls in the Department of the Unfaithful.

Where should we go?

Please give us your instructions.

What do you think?

We…

We…

We will all listen to you, Chief.

I mean, where do you want to go?

Well, if you don't have any other instructions,

we will go back to Mount Qingya

and wait for you and our master to come back.

The world is so big and you can go anywhere.

Is that damned place your only choice?

Chief.

We are all ill-fated girls who were once forced into a corner.

Every one of us was saved by our master.

We are all willing to serve and work for her in return.

The world is so big,

but the only place that can be called home

is the Ghost Valley.

Now that we've joined the Ghost Valley,

we will either hunt

or be hunted.

You can't even protect yourselves.

What's the point of going back there?

From now on, I don't care where you go,

but don't ever step into Mount Qingya again.

Whoever disobeys me will die.

-Yes, Chief. -Yes, Chief.

WANGCHEN INN

Where did you go?

What happened?

Discipline my disciple for me.

He's so unruly!

Beat him or scold him as you please.

He's your disciple,

but you want me to teach him?

It's almost eleven o'clock, I need to adjust my vital energy.

Little brat, what did you do?

I begged my master for a bedtime story,

but he was really bad at it.

That story he told

was even more boring than an old teacher's lecture.

You were so nice before.

Why are you so insatiable,

making such unreasonable demands?

Kids really can't be spoiled.

Mr. Wen, tell me one more story, please.

Your story must be more amusing than my master's.

Gu Xiang once told me

you know a lot of rare and weird stories

such as Hong Hai'er split a mountain to save the White Snake,

Jiang Ziya who fought with the White-Bones Demon,

-and… -Stop.

Why does this girl tell you everything?

Master Wen, I beg you.

Tell me one story.

I will never make Master angry again.

Master Wen.

You're so hard to deal with.

All right, I'll tell you one.

Once upon a time,

there was a man walking in a desert.

Unfortunately, he encountered a pack of wolves

-and he was cornered. -Kill him!

Suddenly, he found a well in front of him.

Having no other choice,

he could only crawl down the dry well with a rope.

-Kill him! -Kill him!

-Halfway down the well, -Kill him!

-he unexpectedly found -No.

a den of snakes at the bottom,

hissing with their split tongues.

He was in such a dilemma,

with no way to go while being chased from behind.

At that very moment,

he found a honeycomb on the wall of the well.

Those bees, buzzing and flying around,

were about to attack him.

He was stung and fell into unspeakable misery.

What's worse,

the rope that he held onto

couldn't withstand his weight

and he was slowly falling.

Suddenly,

he noticed that honey was oozing from the honeycomb

in the well.

He put out his finger,

taking some of the honey,

put it in his mouth,

-and wholeheartedly sucked it. -Let me!

Life is like a dream

and a floating bubble.

What people desperately pursue is nothing,

but pleasure like that honey.

Beauty Ghost,

you helped an outsider stop me?

Cut the nonsense!

After so many years,

this is my first time seeing your true face.

Get lost!

You won't fail me

and I won't fail you.

You won't fail me…

Master, run!

The crazy woman has gone mad again.

Beauty Ghost, what were you thinking?

You would rather hide here and stay with that old dog, Yu Qiufeng,

than turn to me for help.

Not bad.

It's not as bad as I thought.

If you dare to touch me,

Chief will definitely cut you into pieces.

You are

really silly and stupid.

Zhao Jing.

Zhao Jing.

Zhao Jing.

Zhao Jing.

Scorpion King?

Scorpion King, what are you doing here?

Who are you to ask me that?

-Zhao Jing. -Where is Yu Qiufeng?

Zhao Jing.

Who are these two women?

Well, she…

She's the famous Beauty Ghost.

Her lover, the chief, abandoned her

and ran away alone.

Beauty Ghost?

Tragicomic Ghost's henchman

and ranks last among the Ten Devils.

That Beauty Ghost?

My goodness.

So you are the Beauty Ghost.

I'm confident with my unequal beauty.

It's said Beauty Ghost is known in the martial arts world for her beauty,

but regrettably blind and slow.

I've been looking forward to seeing you.

Lady Green Siren,

you are much more beautiful than what they described.

Look at this face.

It makes my heart restless

and my throat feels prickly.

With such a face, why would people call her a beauty?

Do you think everyone is born as beautiful as me?

She found herself a master.

Such a little scar doesn't matter at all.

Even wearing the same makeup as the moon goddess, Chang'e,

works for her.

-Zhao Jing. -And that woman is her master.

Master of the Unfaithful List, Tragicomic Ghost.

But what a pity! She has gone mad.

She can do nothing now.

Zhao Jing.

Zhao Jing, where are you?

Zhao Jing.

Zhao Jing.

Zhao Jing!

-Zhao Jing, where are you? -What did you say?

Zhao Jing.

Zhao Jing.

I never thought that you, at such a young age,

-Zhao Jing. -to have such a weird taste.

A madwoman like her

could seduce you?

-What? -Zhao Jing.

Are you scared?

Zhao Jing.

Scorpion King, Lustful Ghost deserved to die.

It was him who offended you.

We are sent here by Zhao Jing, the chief.

Zhao Jing.

Zhao Jing, you are here.

Zhao Jing!

Zhao Jing, where are you?

Where are you?

Zhao Jing.

Where are you?

-Master. -Zhao Jing!

Zhao Jing, where are you?

I beg you.

Please leave her alone.

-She has gone mad. -Zhao Jing.

Please show mercy and let her go.

Beg me one more time.

I beg you!

I beg you!

Let her go.

Stop!

Stop!

This loser himself is back.

Let her go.

Why should I?

I have a piece of the Glazed Armor.

Let her go first!

I'll take you to it.

Qianqiao.

Qianqiao.

Qianqiao.

Qianqiao, I'm sorry.

I, Yu Qiufeng, am a coward and despicable man.

I fled when faced with imminent disaster.

Qianqiao.

I'm back.

I won't leave anymore.

Enough. Enough with the sweet talk.

No matter how sweet your words are,

you still can't wipe out

your evil reputation as the first liar in the world.

What do you mean by that?

Scorpion King, you may not know this.

This lady was given the nickname of Green Siren.

She's well known for her beauty in the martial arts world.

But unfortunately, she was blind.

She fell for Yu Qiufeng's sweet talk.

Who would expect

that Yu Qiufeng's wife

is known for her jealousy?

She caught this lady,

stripped off her clothes, and forced her to parade naked

all the way from Mount Huashan to Chang'an.

This anecdote

was known by everyone back then.

The funny thing is,

right from the beginning to the end,

this lady's lover

didn't dare to say a word.

So she couldn't stay in the martial arts world anymore.

It is said that she joined the Ghost Valley.

People said Yu Qiufeng

found a new mistress, but can you believe this?

It's still her!

My dear.

I don't think it's just your face,

but even your brain is wounded.

It was me who had bad intentions.

His Glazed Armor is fake.

I just wanted to take advantage of him to save my master.

But who knew?

Being entangled with him for half of my life is worth it.

Qiufeng.

Only you are allowed to lie to me,

but I'm not allowed to lie to you?

I beg you to let my master go.

I'm willing to serve you.

I will be at your command.

How did a demon that once rode the whirlwind

become an idiot now?

She's suffering from soul-dissociation after drinking the Soup of Oblivion.

With a clouded mind and blurred memory,

she's wasting away.

The Soup of Oblivion?

That's what everyone who wishes

to join the Ghost Valley has to drink.

It enables you to forget your strongest obsession.

Evil Bodhisattva,

bring these two women back to the Scorpion Sect.

You must play it by ear. By all means, don't let anyone find out.

Why…

You won't fail me

and I won't fail you.

TEA, WATER

Master, the food is ready.

Chengling,

you seem to have grown taller than when you were at Tai Lake.

Thank you, Master.

For what?

Ever since we met,

you have been worried about me.

Don't feel sorry for him.

Your master is the embodiment of the Bodhisattva

and is destined to help others.

Bustling around to help people in need is common for him.

You are already drunk early in the day?

Waiter, come here.

-Coming! -Bring my brothers some water.

Here you go, sir.

I will get some more.

WATER

As long as I am alive…

Waiter.

I'm not done with you!

Who are those people? Why are they all wounded?

Sir, they are from the Xianxia Sect.

Two days ago, their sect was set on fire.

It is said Hero Bai, their chief, is dead.

How cruel!

The Ghost Valley?

How scary.

What do you think, Bodhisattva Zhou?

Do you need to hurry to vanquish the demons and monsters?

How disgusting!

The smell of burnt food.

These deserters of the Xianxia Sect

didn't even bury the bodies of their brothers.

The Ghost Valley is too much.

They bully righteous sects and they don't even have a leader.

Such a pity.

Chief Bai has been chivalric for more than 30 years.

If we got there two days earlier,

-maybe-- -Maybe what?

Maybe we might die at the hands of the Ghost Valley.

Though my martial arts are not that good, both our sects are quite close.

I should not be afraid to die.

Gu Xiang, wait up.

Chengling, are you all right?

I'm fine, Master.

I'm just not used to seeing dead bodies.

Bodhisattva Zhou,

weren't we going back to the Four Seasons Manor?

Does the Xianxia Sect's bad luck have anything to do with us?

Chengling.

Have some more water and calm yourself.

Wen Kexing, follow me.

Zhou Xu,

are you the God of Death?

Wherever you go, there is death.

You're the one with bad luck.

I dare not take the credit.

I heard that once there was an owl.

It knocked over the red water in a villager's hands.

Then dozens of villagers died.

Zhou Xu, I found your bad-mouthing

is as powerful as the owl.

Don't interrupt me.

Based on the bodies in the Xianxia Sect,

they were either cut in the throats

or died immediately.

Obviously, they were killed by professional assassins.

So?

Suppose that someone

is killing the dissidents in the name of the Ghost Valley

and then blame it on them.

What would their purpose be?

To benefit themselves, of course.

Before the Heroes Conference,

I thought Gao Chong was the guy who set the whole thing up.

Given the current circumstances,

within the Five Lakes Alliance, there's someone else behind the scenes.

Shen Shen and Zhao Jing both pretended to be silly and weak.

I don't think they're innocent.

Gao Chong's death was caused by his sworn brother.

No matter who set it up, either Shen Shen or Zhao Jing,

this other guy has bad intentions.

Both of them are treacherous and faithless villains.

No one is innocent no matter who the prey is.

It doesn't matter if it's either Shen Shen or Zhao Jing.

But in case one of them is evil while the other is loyal,

what happened to the innocent one is on us.

"Innocent"?

You're doing this again!

Who's the innocent one?

It doesn't matter.

Weren't we going to the Four Seasons Manor?

Why do you mention this crap?

Let's go!

Master!
