Siam is a mysterious ancient country,

whose gu magic has been widely practiced for ages.

Bewildered by the High Priest, Sa Pokun,

Chief of the Elephant clan drank the gu poison

and became a controlled elephant man.

[Former Chieftain Chief of Elephant clan]

The story starts here.

[Sa Pokun High Priest of the Elephant clan]

Protect my body, Elephant God!

Protect our people!

Father!

Remember your mission

and find Princess Shi Tiya.

[The Devildom Elephant Man]

Who are you?

Hong Xiguan.

How dare you block the chancellor's way?

Do you want to die?

Ha Chaduo,

twenty years ago,

you killed more than 120 people

in Hongjia Village.

Today, I will make you

pay with your life.

Kill him!

Thousands of people died

in the Yangzhou massacre.

Compared with that, Hongjia Village is nothing.

What you're doing

is really smug and stupid.

Yes. I did the killing in Hongjia Village.

You're just a bug.

Go ahead.

Come on.

Bravo. Bravo.

What are you…

I'm buying back Xue Ling's freedom.

Mr. Hong, I'm afraid…

You can take this too. Is that enough?

Xiguan.

My wish has been fulfilled.

Mr. Hong, you scared the guests.

I killed someone.

The constable will be here soon.

And I just have one last wish.

Xueling, you don’t belong here.

Please leave.

Live the life that you want.

I don't want to leave here.

He just bought your freedom back.

Why wouldn't you leave?

You don't have to tell me if you don't want to.

Xueling,

would you dance for me for the last time?

Mister,

why aren't you running off?

I got my revenge, and I'll accept the penalty.

Great.

You're a true hero.

Here's to you.

Cheers.

Cheers.

Mo Li, is this a fight between celestial beings?

Your Highness, this is a kind of fang magic.

That man is probably using an internal skill.

Protect me! Protect me!

Xue ling. Xue ling. Xue ling.

Why?

[One month later]

The princess of the Siam's Elephant clan is so beautiful.

That man is obviously not a good person.

His name is Sa Pokun.

He's the High Priest of Siam's Elephant clan,

and the ambassador to us for this marriage of state.

He looks like a complicated man.

His name is Ma Dingyuan.

He's the leader of a local gang, Yanhu Sect.

He is also Hong Xiguan’s elder sworn brother.

Oh.

The elder sworn brother is a gangster,

and the younger one killed an imperial officer.

Interesting.

Her Highness is tired from the journey.

She would like to rest in her room first.

I hope you don't mind, Prince Yun.

I don't mind. I don't.

Let her have a good rest.

Here.

Thanks again, Prince Yun.

Wow, this is wonderful.

Here comes the fang magic again.

Your Highness, the princess is gone.

Hong Xiguan, you killed an imperial officer in public.

You defied the law and committed a felony.

Here is the official note from the Ministry of Punishments. You will be decapitated immediately.

[Order]

Execute.

Wait a second!

You criminal,

how dare you break into the imperial prison and obstruct the execution.

Arrest her.

Stop!

What on earth are you doing?

[Order]

Who are you people?

Take a guess.

May I know who's here?

According to the laws of Qing,

any memember of the royal families who obstructs the justice

will be tied up and get punished in Zongren Institution.

I dare you to arrest me.

Long live His Majesty. Leave.

Yes.

Hong Xiguan.

Thanks for the wine.

You're welcome.

Let's have a talk, shall we?

What's there to talk about with a death row inmate?

The Princess of Siam's Elephant clan.

She's my pincess consort.

Well,

it's so strange that she just disappeared.

Mo Li has been looking for her for three days.

But she found nothing.

I heard you're a capable man.

Would you help me?

No, I wouldn't.

Yeah.

The Princess of the Elephant clan disappeared in our country.

If this gets out,

how humiliating it is for the imperial court.

That has nothing to do with me.

You...

I knew it.

He couldn't care less.

Well, how about

I tell you a secret?

Your Highness.

Ha Chaduo.

I'm all ears.

The one who sent troops to Hongjia Village

and made the order of killing

was not who you thought.

[Secret Document]

[General]

[The chronicles]

[General]

There is no name on it.

How can I trust you?

I'll give you the name of your enemy

if you find the princess in three days.

Xiguan,

run!

Run!

You...

Why are you still here?

His Highness asked me to help you.

You're here to supervise me, aren't you?

You don't have that much time.

Stop stalling.

Where are you going to start the investigation?

I have a thought.

What is it?

I'm going to Hongjia Village.

Hongjia Village?

Wasn't the village massacred 20 years ago?

After Hongjia Village was massacred,

it became a mass grave.

No one would go there.

Now it's a ghost town,

which is also known as the black market.

Why are we going there then?

Why?

Do you have cash?

Why do we need cash?

Then tell me what we should do now?

We'll find out if my face

is still useful.

Everything has its destiny.

Those who enter the Ghost Market

don't need to say their names,

as long as they pay the fee.

Hong Xiguan

Hong Xiguan,

weren't you decapitated?

I'm lucky. I can live a few more days.

Get to the point.

I want to go to Hongjia Village.

There's no Hongjia Village

but the Ghost Market.

Please do me a favor.

Give me the money.

I would give it to you if I have any.

I need to save my face, please.

Do you think I have a face to save?

There's no face to save.

You really scared me.

Just wait and see, Hong Xiguan.

This must be very interesting to you.

Being in a high position,

you must have never seen these.

Mei Hexiang Pastry. Have a look.

They are using Fushou ointment.

Fushou ointment is an expensive herb imported by the imperial court.

Only rich people can afford it.

No. Opium is almost a widespread drug now.

Yanhu Sect has been smuggling a great amount of it.

So its price keeps dropping.

Now, even poor people can affort it.

You'll see later.

[Fo Liou]

We're here.

This is my master.

Is a monk allowed to drink?

He is not forbidden from drinking.

Wake up. Wake up.

The enemy is here.

Oh, enemy.

Beautiful lady.

You're drunk, again.

You'll kill me if you keep hitting me.

Beautiful lady.

Are you lovers?

Master, stop asking questions.

I need to ask you about someone.

Is there someone

who can do both puppeteering and fang magic?

Many people can do puppeteering.

But very few can combine puppeteering

with fang magic.

What a coincidence.

I know someone who can do that.

Her name

is Nan Di.

Nan Di.

She is probably the one

who kidnapped the Princess of Siam's Elephant clan.

No, she couldn't be the kidnapper.

Why?

Because she is Princess of Siam, Shi Tiya's maid.

How did you know that?

She and I

used to…

That's impossible.

Why is that impossible?

I'm telling you, brat. For ten years, I…

Take care of Mo Li.

I'll come back to you later.

Where are you going?

You brat.

What can I do for you?

We need to swap our faces.

I can only do that for you for one day.

I fell asleep.

Where is Hong Xiguan?

Stop!

What are they doing?

Master Shichen,

where is your apprentice, Hong Xiguan?

Are you looking for my disobedient apprentice?

He has been imprisoned.

Maybe he has become

a ghost without a master now.

You frisky monk,

stop talking nonsense.

This is the Ghost Market.

We have our rules.

Take this

pretty lady.

You really don't respect me as a master at all.

You're good, master.

Girl.

Run!

Hong Xiguan

Stop!

You know me?

If you don't stop, I'll have to attack.

Puppeteering combine with fang magic.

I know who you are.

Nan Di.

Where is the princess?

Don't ask anything you shouldn't ask.

Xue Ling.

Xiguan.

You're not dead.

How come?

Xi Guan, why are you here?

I'm looking for the Princess of the Elephant clan, Shi Tiya.

Xiguan, I didn't mean to hide the truth from you.

It's been difficult.

It's okay.

I will help you.

We meet again.

Mind your own business.

No, I won't.

You're dead.

Run!

Why are you running? Hit back!

I can't do martial arts.

Who did you offend this time, brat?

Hong Xiguan,

you have nowhere to run this time.

Your old friend is inside.

Hang in there, my apprentice.

The princess is inside.

Okay. You hang in there.

Do me a favor, would you?

Come on. Get up.

Let go of Her Highness!

You're plotting to kidnap Her Highness.

You misunderstood.

They are here to save me.

This is my maid Nan Di.

Your Highness, who took you here?

Those four Strange Ones.

Four Strange Ones?

Who are they?

Why did they kidnap you?

They're also from Siam.

But their tribe

is different from ours.

We have our grudges.

You're not.

She is not Xue…

She is Xue Ling's

twin sister.

I am a bit slow.

So I say wrong things.

Hong Xiguan, you are not welcome in the Ghost Market.

Since we've found the Her Highness,

how about we take her back now?

Xiguan.

You are not the princess.

What are you plotting to do?

I want to know as well.

Xue Ling.

She is Xue Ling?

Actually, I am Shi Tiya, the real Princess of the Siam's Elephant clan.

The current Shi Tiya is an imposter hired by Sa Pokun.

It is said that

Siam's Elephant clan

are descendants of the Elephant God.

All the previous chiefs wanted to become the God of Elephant.

And Sa Pokun

used this to trick my father

into drinking the gu poison.

He then became a violent elephant man who kills innocent people.

In order to escape from the murder,

Nan Di and I stayed in Huayue House.

And we entertained the guests.

You pretty little thing.

I didn't expect Sa Pokun's four Strange Ones found me anyway.

And wanted to kill me.

Nan Di and I

thought of the Substitution Technique.

Now or never. Fake your death to escape.

No wonder his men were desperately trying to chase after you.

Yeah.

Mo Li,

I believe her.

What about the evidence? Where is it?

I can give you evidence.

Look into her eyes.

Remember your mission.

After the marriage,

you must persuade Prince Yun to expand the opium trade

and import our opium.

If you can’t convince him,

just let him get addicted to opium.

Then he will

obey your orders.

Fortunately, we found out earlier.

Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.

He's here.

Let's go.

Go.

You go first. I'll cover you.

You can't defeat him.

Be careful.

Princess.

How are you?

I can handle it. Take them with you and go.

Go.

Are you okay?

Disciple.

Hong Xiguan.

It's too dangerous.

Is she crazy?

She wants to save her father.

Only by returning to Sa Pokun's side

does she have a chance to cure the elephant man.

Disciple.

Are you alright?

Master.

Master.

What are you doing?

Disciple, true power is meant to save lives,

not to take them.

Master.

Go.

Lord Sa Pokun.

It was Princess Shi Tiya

and her maid Nan Di who kidnapped me.

Nan Di drugged me.

Most of the time,

I was unconscious.

Then why

did they give you the antidote?

They forced me to reveal what the elephant men are

and tell them where the elephant men are.

If you hadn't arrived in time, my lord,

I'm afraid...

I'm afraid...

I will be in danger.

So you compromised?

My lord,

if I died,

I wouldn't be able to fulfill the mission you gave me.

So

I told them

that you were doing opium business

with Yanhu Sect.

Stupid woman.

Please spare my life.

Su Xi,

go to Yanhu Sect

and tell Ma Dingyuan

to be prepared for the government raid.

Make sure the opium and elephant men are safe.

Yes.

And tell Ma Dingyuan

to prepare for the worst.

Prince Yun, save me.

I'm Princess Shi Tiya of the Siamese Elephant Clan.

You should know who you are.

Prince Yun, I...

We already know that Sa Pokun is the mastermind.

You had no choice.

I will show mercy.

My real name is Lai La.

Please spare my life, Prince Yun.

What Lai La did

was not my intention.

Lai La.

Don't worry.

I'll keep my word.

I won't give you a hard time.

But

Sa Pokun may not let you go so easily.

Are you willing to obey me?

Anything at your command.

I'll keep an eye on her.

I'm going to arrange a ritual

to release Master Shi Chen's soul.

Don't bother.

Master has no attachments anymore.

He sacrificed himself to save others.

I believe

he has returned to Buddha.

Prince Yun,

it's time to tell me the name of my enemy.

Hong Xiguan.

Your mission is not completed yet.

You already know

the true princess of the Elephant clan.

Tell me

my enemy's name.

So I can fulfill my wish.

Then,

I'll be at your disposal.

In your eyes, you only care about revenge.

Otherwise, you wouldn't have been used by your sworn brother Ma Dingyuan.

What did you say?

Hong Xiguan.

It seems that I have to step over the line

to enlighten you on behalf of Master Shi Chen.

Ma Dingyuan and Sa Pokun

are in collusion

for personal gains,

and smuggling opium.

Do you know that?

I don't care about the Yanhu Sect.

As far as I know,

opium is a medicinal herb

that can cure illness.

Ignorant.

Foolish.

Follow me.

Let me take another puff.

Look at these people.

My lord, let me take another puff.

Just one puff.

I can do anything for you.

I have three mu of paddy fields at home.

I'll give you a buffalo too.

As long as I can exchange it for some elixir,

I'll do anything.

I also have a pretty daughter.

Can I offer her to warm your bed?

The poison of opium

causes physical and mental addiction.

It's hard to get rid of it.

Unfortunately, the court was deceived

and approved the opium trade.

In addition to losing a lot of silver,

it will also weaken the people's health.

If this goes on,

we will all become sick men who are being slaughtered.

If one day the war happens,

how many people can go to the battlefield?

How many people can carry weapons?

Who will protect our homes and defend our country?

The purpose of the Prince setting up this place

is to find the best way to get rid of addiction.

So much being said,

what does it have to do with my sworn brother using me?

Ha Chaduo is the culprit of the massacre at Hongjia Village.

How did you know about this?

Brother, I’ve found the murderer of the Hongjia Village massacre.

Who is it?

They're too powerful.

I'm afraid you'll die

for your revenge.

It's a blood feud.

Either his death or mine.

Even if it costs my life,

I will tear him apart.

Alright.

He's Ha Chaduo, a third-ranked military officer and commanding official

Ha Chaduo.

Ha Chaduo had been investigating the opium smuggling case.

I made an appointment with Ha Chaduo for a secret talk at Huayue House that day.

What a coincidence,

you killed him on the way.

Why do you think Ma Dingyuan took you as his sworn brother?

He used you to conquer the world,

and eliminate dissidents.

Such a villain.

Ma Dingyuan is indeed a treacherous villain.

But if you continue to be stubborn and help the evil,

you're no better than him.

[Yanhu Sect]

Why are you here?

Master Ma, Lord Sa Pokun asked me to tell you...

Don't worry.

The Yanhu Sect is as solid as a fortress.

Your sworn brother, Hong Xiguan is out.

He's not dead?

How could the disguise effect disappear?

It’s very likely that the disguise process

was interrupted by Hong Xiguan

and the time was shortened.

Oh no.

Xue Ling is in danger.

Your Highness,

Sa Pokun took the princess and his men to Yanhu Sect.

Sa Pokun's conspiracy has been exposed

and wants to escape.

Send the troops now.

Yes.

[Yanhu Sect]

Help! Come out!

Hurry!

I brought Lai La back.

It's here.

Let's go.

Wait.

The road ahead is unknown.

Let them go first.

Wait.

This is ice silk from Tianshan,

extremely resilient and can’t be cut.

Try burning it with fire.

Nan Di.

Hong Xiguan.

Prepare to die.

I can hold on.

Follow the guide bug.

Hong Xiguan.

You really came here.

Release Xue Ling.

Something is wrong.

You should care about your own safety.

Why isn't Ma Dingyuan here?

He feels guilty

and doesn't dare to face me?

You'll see him soon enough.

Hong Xiguan, do you know what this place is?

Hongjia Village from 20 years ago.

This is the most painful memory in your heart.

Enjoy it.

Hong Xiguan.

You can't do anything

but watch this massacre happen.

Ma Dingyuan,

it's time for us to settle our scores.

Tell me who the mastermind is,

and I'll spare your life.

Don't mention it.

I'm willing to tell you.

He is...

Stop!

Why didn't you save her?

I'm afraid.

Afraid?

Because you're not strong enough.

Have you become stronger?

I can kill them all.

What was your original intention in pursuing power?

I want revenge.

We have obtained power,

but what can we do with it?

Disciple,

true power is meant to save people,

not to kill.

Let's go.

Xiguan.

Your power can save more people.

Yes.

I wanted to save my mother.

Saving people

is the original intention of my pursuit of power.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

I won't die.

Leave the rest to me.

Ma Dingyuan.

Drop the knife.

Come on.

Xiguan, let's go.

I haven't completed my mission.

Saving people is my purpose.

Xiguan, he is my father.

I won't hurt your father.

What are you doing?

Mo Li, can you drip my blood into his eyes?

What does he want to do with your blood?

It's not Xiguan.

It's him.

Only my blood can break the curse of the elephant man.

Hong Xiguan.

Hong Xiguan, lure him here.

Sa Pokun, I have no authority to punish you.

I'll hand you over to the clan chief and the government.

Father, drink it.

Congratulations on the clan chief's rebirth.

Thank you, Prince Yun.

No need to thank me.

You should thank your good daughter.

It was her endurance and sacrifice that revealed the truth.

It's what I should do.

Father.

This is Hong Xiguan.

He was injured twice

in order to save you.

No need to mention it.

If you really want to thank someone,

thank Mo Li.

Don't mention it.

This is my duty.

From now on,

you must not believe in sorceries anymore.

Also, the opium trade must be stopped,

only keeping the medicinal part.

Abusing it harms people.

When I return to the Elephant clan,

I'll get rid of all poppies

and eliminate those harmful things.

Hong Xiguan.

Today, I'm here to fulfill my promise.

[Secret Scroll]

[Secret Scroll]

I already know who it is.

Back then,

I was only 13 years old.

I went out hunting with soldiers.

But I accidentally entered Hongjia Village.

[Hongjia Village]

People from Hongjia Village refused to shave.

Prince Yun.

Kill or not?

Kill or not?

Kill or not?

Kill or not?

Kill.

Young age and ignorance

are no excuse for murder.

Yes.

I understand.

It was my fault.

Today,

let's put an end to it.

Do it.

Kill or not? Kill or not?

Kill or not?

Like this.

United as one.

[Censorate of the Holy Dynasty]

United as one.

Strive to become stronger.

Strive to become stronger.

Your boxing technique is good.

Steady and powerful.

Steady steps, fierce and impacting.

What is this

set of boxing called?

I want to call it

Hong Boxing.
