(Si Mansion)

Today,

I might have been

too harsh on Hong.

I just want him to succeed.

(Your Lordship,)

(your attitude towards Situ Hong)

(and Si Borong)

(is really different.)

What's different?

Borong's abilities are average,

and he just knows how to showboat.

You're very lenient with him.

Situ Hong

trains harder

and has stronger martial arts skills.

But you're even stricter with him.

You noticed that, huh?

Borong is playful,

and his martial arts foundation is weak.

He's not interested in it.

Just let him be happy.

If we push him too hard,

it could backfire.

As for Situ Hong,

he has exceptional talent in martial arts.

He trains diligently

and never slacks off.

That's why

I need to focus more on cultivating him,

helping him reach higher levels

and perhaps even surpass me.

One day, he will understand

my good intentions for him.

(Vanishing Technique)

You're a good-for-nothing

and have brought shame to our family.

And now,

you're even stealing something from the house!

You ungrateful brat!

Let me teach you a lesson.

Aunt.

You're not Chi Qiubai.

Well.

Don't I look like him?

Si Lianghong was once

the vanguard general in the great battle.

Although

in the Nanqin Demon Well incident,

she used up much of her energy

to fill the cracks.

Even so,

it's not that easy to kill her

with your ability.

Is she that powerful?

Even though you've practiced demonic techniques,

it can't guarantee you'll kill her.

And what I want

is a foolproof way.

What should I do?

I'll disguise you as Chi Qiubai.

Chi Qiubai.

Only when she is

extremely weak

will she let her guard down.

Seize the opportunity and kill her with one blow.

You know what to do.

Moyang Chen!

I'll give you the manual of the Vanishing Technique.

Please spare my aunt.

You traitor!

Okay.

I'll help you

as promised.

The master's manual

should be kept by you.

Hong.

Test your skills.

After dealing with her,

everything will be yours.

Don't!

Hong.

Aunt.

Aunt.

Someone!

Someone!

Aunt.

Aunt, you'll be fine.

You'll be fine.

Knight Changfeng.

Murder!

Chi Qiubai killed Lord Si Lianghong!

Murder!

(If I had been a little faster,)

(I could have caught up with him then.)

Xueying,

have you seen Master?

No,

I haven't seen him lately.

Lord Si Lianghong of Nanqin City

was murdered.

They say she was having a secret meeting with Master

and that they were discussing spatial techniques

when Master suddenly attacked

and killed Lord Si Lianghong.

What?

What did you say?

And someone from the Si Mansion

said he saw it happen.

Just now, the Elders of the council

came to the academy looking for the dean,

but my master said the dean had been away

from the academy these days

and left matters to him.

Now it's even more difficult to clear things up.

Master couldn't have done

such a thing.

I'm going to Nanqin City now.

We'll go with you.

Master definitely wouldn't do this.

Let's go and find a solution together.

Let's go.

Qingshi.

Qingshi.

- Miss Ji Rong. - Miss Ji Rong.

I sprained my ankle.

Can you get me a doctor?

Yes.

It hurts so much.

Miss,

my family has an ancestral massage technique

specially for bruises and sprains.

Do you want me

to massage your foot?

Come over and do it for me now.

Alright.

You're too gentle.

Help!

Help! Someone!

Help!

Rong.

Help!

Is there anyone?

Rong.

Rong, how are you?

Where are you hurt?

I'm fine, Qingshi.

I didn't expect him to do this.

Let's go.

I'll take you home.

Go.

(Si Mansion)

Please help

get justice

for my family.

Is there any news

about Chi Qiubai's whereabouts?

I have given the order to search for him.

But

there's been no news.

How could Chi Qiubai

do a cold-blooded thing

like that?

He's a disgrace

to every Transcendent cultivator!

We can't just jump

to conclusions

about how Si Lianghong died.

Sikong Yang,

are they the kind of disciplines

your temple cultivates?

Xueying,

any new information?

Everyone,

we just found

a memory bubble

in Lord Si's room.

Jingqiu,

just like you,

I am unwilling to believe

it was done by our master.

But my aunt has been so kind to me.

I can't be biased because of this.

Situ Hong,

we'll know if it was our master's doing

once we see it.

The origin

of this memory bubble is unclear.

What if it was placed

by the real culprit in my aunt's room

to confuse us?

Let him show it.

We will judge

whether it's true or not by ourselves.

It was not Qiubai.

Another person

killed Si Lianghong.

Can you recognize who this person is?

With a silhouette alone,

it's hard for me to tell.

But at least

we can confirm now

Lord Si's death

was not done by our master.

Though the murderer

was not Chi Qiubai,

he still played

the role of an accomplice.

I will investigate

this matter to the end.

If the accomplice is really our master,

he must be in Nanqin City now.

Let's go find him.

Then everything will be clear.

Why did we come to the Xueying Territory?

I warned you

not to target Xueying.

Since I promised you before

not to hurt him,

I won't go back on my word.

I'm asking you for help today.

It has nothing to do

with Dongbo Xueying.

I need you

to enhance the power of this source stone

and make it appear

where it should be.

What are you going to do?

It's just a small source stone.

You don't need to be so nervous.

And did you forget?

It was you who came to me

to take Dongbo Xueying's place.

Of course, it's not too late to back out now.

I can catch

Dongbo Xueying back

and let him do it.

This is the key to the secret passage in the back mountain.

It's located in Dongbo Lie's tomb.

Very good.

You must find a way

to stall them tomorrow.

Don't let them

ruin our plans.

Yes, Third Priest.

(Xueying Territory)

Who's on duty?

Commander Zong,

you're back.

Why are there so few guards

on duty?

I've only been away for a few days.

How could you become so lax?

Something's happened these days.

Do your job well.

- Yes. - Yes.

Hurry, hurry.

Be more diligent.

Alright.

Commander Zong.

Commander Zong.

Miss Ji Rong,

I heard about today's incident.

I'm really sorry

that my guard offended you.

It's all in the past. It's fine.

Miss Ji Rong,

where are you going so late at night?

I can't sleep,

so I came out for some fresh air

and by the way, to check on Qingshi.

I hear

he's still practicing outside so late.

Uncle Zong Ling,

I'm not feeling well.

I'm going back.

Rong?

Why don't you rest

in your room?

I'll bring you breakfast

later.

Come.

Come sit down.

I'm not that delicate.

Besides,

doing something else

is a good way to distract myself.

Distracting yourself is predicated

on having a good breakfast.

What's the matter?

Well...

There are no outsiders.

Just say it.

Someone reports

that there's a ghost haunting the farmhouse.

The tenants are afraid to leave their homes,

and complaints are everywhere.

Our people can't control it,

and they hope we can help.

A ghost?

I think it's just someone who has ulterior motives.

Well,

I'll send them away.

Wait a moment.

Although

it's a small matter for us,

for those farmers,

it is

a big deal.

We absolutely cannot

refuse them so forcefully.

Otherwise, everyone will think

that Qingshi is a cold-hearted person.

Sending people to guard the farmstead

will not only reassure the people

but also establish Qingshi's authority.

Why not do it?

Ji Rong makes sense.

But our manpower...

Uncle Tong San,

let's settle this matter like this.

Is that okay?

Alright,

let's do as Shi says.

Go ahead.

Yes, I'll go and do it right away.

How is it?

You also feel something's off.

Master Sikong,

what happened?

The Demon Clan is going to seize the Demon Well.

A great battle between the Xia Clan and the Demon Clan is imminent.

You must be prepared.

Moyang Chen.

The Vanishing Technique.

The Vanishing Technique

is exclusive to the Si Family.

It won't be shared outside.

Tell me.

Does your family

have secret connections with the Demon Clan?

No,

absolutely not.

Then where did Moyang Chen

learn the Vanishing Technique?

I remember now.

On the day my aunt died,

someone sneaked into our mansion.

At that time, our mansion was in chaos,

and we had no time to deal with it.

I guess

that person must be Moyang Chen.

He took advantage of the chaos

and stole the manual of the Vanishing Technique.

Is this true?

My family is loyal and righteous.

We would never collude with the Demon Clan,

and we would never betray the Xia Clan.

Even though you don't betray,

you can't shirk the responsibility

of being negligent in your duties.

I am incompetent.

I would like to stay in the Si Mansion

and reflect on my mistakes.

My aunt and cousin just passed away.

I want to stay and rebuild my family

so that my aunt and cousin

can rest in peace.

Is the ghost problem resolved?

It's resolved. There's no ghost.

It's just someone causing trouble on purpose.

Where is that person?

Did you catch him?

No, we didn't.

I guess

it's a neighborhood dispute between villagers.

Since the matter is resolved,

why not reward the soldiers?

The people are grateful to Qingshi.

It helps him build up good fame.

Qingshi rewards the soldiers.

It helps him establish authority,

and it can also boost morale.

Three benefits in one move.

Well said. Three benefits in one move.

Then today,

let's treat the soldiers well.

Pass the order down.

Yes.

How is it?

Is the tea I brewed good?

Very good.

Then drink some more.

Come on.

Knight Changfeng,

it's up to you now.

The location of the second Demon Well

is found.

The rare source stone is now in hand.

But with only the power

of the useless Black Armored Warriors,

it's far from enough.

The Demon Well

is not so easy to break through.

We must absorb and compress

immense power

to achieve the momentum of thunderbolt penetration.

What should we do?

It's time for Chi Qiubai to do something

for us.

The rare source stone

has extremely strong material energy.

Let's combine it

with the formidable energy

within Chi Qiubai's body

and then sacrifice

the combination

to the Demon Well.

What exactly are you going to do?

No need to ask.

Just do as I instruct.

Then I can't obey.

Chi Qiubai,

unless you have the Ancient Bloodline.

Otherwise,

the Soul Scouring Nail will mess up your meridians,

turning you into someone totally unrecognizable.

Of course, if you're obedient,

your pain might not be so bad.

I will never do anything

harmful to the Xia Clan.

I want to know

what makes you

so loyal to the Xia Clan.

Is it faith?

Faith is meant to collapse.

You think these demon soldiers

can kill me?

Shi,

I just felt some trembling

outside the fort.

I'll go take a look.

Really?

Alright.

Qingshi,

did you feel the shake?

No, Uncle Zong.

Maybe you're too happy today,

and you're mistaken.

No.

The Demon Clan is rampant.

It's better to be careful.

I'll go for a moment.

Or should I go?

I'll go check it out.

By the way,

I want

to go to the restroom.

Now, Rong?

I have to go really badly.

I'll be back soon.

Alright.

Uncle Zong,

let Rong go.

Let's continue eating.

Next,

let the Great Demon God descend on this world!

(I need to inform)

(the other Elders as soon as possible)

(the Xueying Territory is in danger.)

(Si Mansion)

Xueying, do you mean

Chi Qiubai was attacked

by demons in the Xueying Territory?

I'm clear about the defensive capabilities

of the Xueying Territory.

If even my master

can't handle this matter,

it means the situation is very urgent.

So

Elders, please go

with me to the Xueying Territory

to protect my people.

This Hexagonal Sword

belongs to Knight Changfeng.

But whether this is a trap

is unclear.

Moreover, Nanqin

is already at war with the Demon Clan,

and it hasn't ended yet.

What if the Demon Well is breached

after we leave?

Our primary responsibility is to eliminate demons.

As long as

there are demons here,

I won't go anywhere else.

Qiubai never parts with his sword.

This sword wouldn't

leave its owner for no reason.

If the Xueying Territory is in danger,

Qiubai would also be in danger.

What exactly happened?

Did Qiubai

lose control of this sword?

We should hurry over

and take a look.

Isn't it hasty to make a decision

based on a sword alone?

Besides, everyone has seen

that this place is already engaged

in battle with the Demon Clan.

But...

Xueying,

you may leave now.

How did the discussion go?

Shall we set off now?

They're still discussing.

Time waits for no one.

Let's discuss it later

on the way.

Right. We can't delay any longer.

Every minute we waste

puts our master and the people of the Xueying Territory

in more danger.

If they don't go, we will.

We don't need to rely on others.

We can do it by ourselves.

We'll go with you.

Let's go.

Wait a moment.

Xueying,

I understand your feelings.

But how can you be sure

this isn't a ploy to misdirect us?

Qiubai is always cautious.

His action this time is unusual.

The situation is special now.

The Demon Clan

has attacked the Demon Well twice.

If this is their trick,

the consequences would be unimaginable.

We must be on guard.

Anyway,

I'm going to the Xueying Territory now.

It was the Si Family's fault back then

that caused the Demon Well to fall.

Now Chi Qiubai hasn't shown up,

and only his sword shows up,

which

inevitably raises doubts.

If this leads

to the Demon Well being lost again,

what will happen

to the honor

of the Water Daoist Temple?

Great Demon God!

It's getting late,

and the soldiers need

to get back to their duties.

But

everyone is enjoying themselves right now.

I haven't had enough fun yet, Qingshi.

Rong, it's a bit late today.

Let's do it next time.

Next time, we'll do it with our master.
