Episode 8

Junior Tusu, I heard that you have trained in the back of the mountain for three years

and had learned directly from Reverend Ziyin.

Your skills must have improved tremendously.

Come, exchange some pointers with me.

Why? You're looking down on me?

Freak.

He's really a freak.

-Junior Brothers, are you alright? -Yes.

Baili Tusu...

I will destroy you one day.

Attack me.

You are just a freak!

Get out of Tian Yong City!

Mother!

Baili Tusu,

do you think you can stop me?

Just give up.

You can never break away from my control.

I must destroy you.

If you destroy me,

you will destroy yourself too.

Tusu, what are you doing?

I don't want to be controlled by the Sword of Burning Solitude.

I want to destroy it.

No, you can't do that! Do you know that you will die?

I don't care.

You...

Tusu!

Tusu...

You have been locked up for three years

and yet there's no improvement at all.

Have you forgotten what your senior brother and your teacher have said?

I don't want to be controlled by the sword.

I don't want to be a freak!

For the past three years,

I have been thinking.

When I'm released,

perhaps I could destroy the Sword of Burning Solitude.

I want to give it a try.

Even I have to lose all my skills

and become a useless person,

I don't want to be a freak.

Are you a fool?

If the cauldron can really destroy the sword,

why would your teacher spend so much effort?

You cannot be separated from the Sword of Burning Solitude.

If you burn it, you would be burning yourself.

For the sake of your teacher, you should treasure your own life.

Don't ever do this again.

Lingyue has begged

the Head Reverend for your release.

You cannot tell anyone else about this matter.

You are really muddleheaded.

You must be punished.

Tusu.

Go immediately to the Scripture Chamber and copy scriptures for ten days

to cleanse your mind. See what is written in the scriptures.

If you still cannot reconcile...

Fine then.

You can go back to the Forbidden Ground.

Understand?

Come everyone, listen to me.

Something big is going to happen in Tian Yong City.

The Head Reverend is going to marry Fuqu to Tusu.

You must be kidding. Tian Yong City is a place to cultivate immortality.

Can we even marry?

Junior Brother,

someone like Reverend Ziyin who has attained immortality

need not marry, of course.

But Fuqu is still young.

Do you think the Head Reverend will bear to let his daughter

remain single in Tian Yong City for her whole life?

Let me tell you this too.

In a few more years, Tusu will become the next leader.

Nonsense!

Head Reverend.

What are you all saying? A bunch of nonsense!

Zhao Lin, stop right there.

Let me ask you. Where did you hear all those rumors from?

Please don't be angry, Head Reverend.

Don't be angry? I think you are creating trouble out of nothing!

Fine. You want to be punished, right?

From today, you shall transcribe books at the Scripture Repository for a month!

Yes.

You..why are you here?

You're punished also?

Who punished you?

I'm telling you

I don't have anything to do with what you heard.

I don't care what you heard

If you dare mess with me here, I will yell!

Is it really that precious that I can't even touch?

I'm afraid that it might injure you.

Hey, wooden face

I don't understand how you managed to stay at Tian Yong City for all those years.

Everyone doesn't like you

If I were you, I would have left

Tian Yong City is my home

But I don't think everyone here regards you as...

Ah forget it.

Reverend Zi Yin is my teacher

He who teaches me for one day is my father for life

As long as he and senior brother are here, this is my home

Actually, Senior brother Ling Duan doesn't really have any grudges with you

Why don't you apologize to him?

I didn't do anything wrong, why should I apologize?

About the Gu Hu Niao incident...

I already know.

You...

It's because you and Lin Duan released it.

Ling Duan fled but you were worried someone might get hurt,

so you risked being discovered and turned back to save me

Junior brother, you're actually not a bad guy

I won't take it to heart.

Don't mention it again.

It's not because of you, it's because of Ching Xue.

You still remember Ching Xue right?

Fu Qi said

Ching Xue came to Ting Yong City because of you.

Don't know if Ching Xue still remembers me

I believe that Ching Xue will return to Ting Yong City.

At that time, learn how to control the evil aura.

If Reverend haven't saved you last time, you would've become a monster.

I will control it.

It won't happen again. Don't be afraid.

You're a bit strange

and Senior brother Ling Duan has a bad temper

so why?

I have a bad temper.

Don't blame me for telling the truth. You know what they say behind your back?

Said you're a monster.

But I think you're okay, just that people don't know you.

You should converse with them more.

Can't mingle with them.

I'm afraid I'll hurt you guys.

Indeed if it wasn't for that sword,

we would probably be friends.

Don't tell brother Ling Duan I said this.

You think that's possible?

Grandma, it's good to come out and take a walk

Don't always overtax yourself at the shrine

It is better to be more relaxed.

It's doesn't matter anymore

This old body cannot do much anymore

After being hurt twice by the Burning,

I will soon or later cross the river of death.

Grandma, don't speak like that.

Ching Xue, I'm worried.

These recent days, the fire's intensity from the Burning is constantly changing.

Not sure what happened at Ting Yong City.

Grandma, if you're so worried, want me to drop by Ting Yong City to take a look?

You silly child

You want to take this chance to fool around outside

You think I don't know what you're thinking?

I'm just worried about you.

Grandma knows

These three years you've helped me with the matters of You Du.

You're already not a child.

You know

The elders all say you're smart and able.

However, you going to the Human World

worries me.

Grandma, I know it's because of older brother.

He never returned so you're worried

but I won't

Moreover, I'm also responsible in safegaurding the Sword of Burning Solitude

I have been practicing hard in these past few years to improve my magical skills

If I have any doubts, I'll send you a message through the Water Mirror, alright?

Then when do you plan on leaving?

Oh, you consent for me to go?

Thank you Grandma.

Grandma, Ting Yong City's Ling Yue asked for you.

Senior brother?

You went to Tian Yong City because of this?

Three years ago,

you kept it from me the fact that Yunxi is Tusu

You're here today because of Tusu

I don't know what's the goal of You Dau.

Don't want anything to happen to Tusu.

This time I came to find you because I want you to drop by Ting Yong City.

Meet with Tusu.

Ling Yue brother, these past few years

I studied numerous You Du's magical practices

Perhaps I could help suppress the forces in Yunxi's body

But i just ask one thing

but i can succeed in suppressing the evil aura

I want to bring Tusu and the sword to You Duo.

No, Master already decided

Tusu cannot leave Ting Yong City, there's nothing I can do about it.

Then I will not leave You Duo.

Granny didn't meet me so I'll leave this matter to you

You're right, since I'm You Du's guardian

Ling Yue brother, I won't harm Tusu.

I didn't in the past and I definitely won't now.

If you don't believe me then noone else will.

Qing Xue

Finally caught you.

Can't be controlled by the evil aura. Can't disappoint Senior Brother.

Zhao Lin, Zhao Lin!

Zhao Lin

What's the matter? Why is it so noisy?

Junior!

Junior!

Junior!

You killed Zhao Lin!

No, I didn't kill him.

Even though we normally have a few fights but I can't believe you would take it to this extent!

No, I didn't!

I clearly see that you killed him!

No, I didn't kill him. I didn't kill!

Before, someone came to steal the sword. Someone came to steal the sword!

You dare make excuses?!

I am not!

I didn't, I didn't...

I didn't kill, I didn't kill, I didn't kill!

Don't let him escape, hurry and block him!

Don't force me...

Surround him, don't let him escape!

Don't force me...

Hurry and tell Head Reverend, hurry!

Yes

Impudent! Formation!

Tu Su, calm down!

Tu Su,

don't forget what you promised Senior Ling Yue. Don't let the evil aura control you!

Tu Su!

Let the swords fall!

Please have mercy!

Tu Su!

Tu Su

Tu Su

Tu Su

Fu Qu

Tu Su

Fu Qu, believe me

Zhao Lin wasn't killed by me.

I know. I believe that you didn't do it.

I believe you.

Finally, someone believes me.

Sister Hong Yu is explaining to my father right now.

Also, Senior Brother! When Senior Brother comes back, he will definitely help you get back justice!

Tu Su, you have to endure it.

Think, Reverend Zi Yin will be out soon.

Teacher...

Wait for me. I'll get medicine for you to heal your injuries. Wait for me!

Listening to the sound of the zither

What should be forgotten isn't

The secular world has trapped my youth

Forgive me for keeping a flame of arrogance in my heart

To fight and face the vastness and the mightiness of the world

Life is rough. I got carried away, burning like a roaring flame

The past watch as I go through the ups and downs

Using the cold edge of a blade and a zither's solitude, I write the events of the past and of today

With the lone sword [against my] fingertip, I talk and laugh joyously

I already told you not to keep the Sword of Burning Solitude, it will bring catastrophe.

But Ling Yue continues to guarantee for him.

Said something about controlling the evil aura. The result?

Complete nonsense!

Head Reverend,

I think there's another reason for Zhao Lin's death.

With Tu Su's nature, he wouldn't kill his own junior.

Zhao Lin is obviously killed by Tu Su.

In the sword pavilion, they were the only people there.

Unless Zhao Lin committed suicide?

You say that he won't kill disciples of the same sect.

But don't forget.

That year when he injured Senior Brother with the sword,

if it wasn't because Reverend Zi Yin got there on time, Senior Brother wouldn't be alive right now!

How could he have asked for forgiveness for Tu Su?

Actually, right now I'm only worried.

The Demon Lock Cage and Golden Necklace, will it be enough to hold the disobedient disciple?

If he is able to escape, then the result is unthinkable.

Head Reverend, please hurry and kill this bastard.

Head Reverend, no!

He killed someone, he has to use his life to repay it.

Tu Su continuously goes against the sect rules.

It's because he's spoiled by you and Senior Brother.

That's why it resulted in today's misery, Zhao Lin's death!

Unless only Tu Su's is life,

Zhao Lin's isn't?!

Head Reverend,

Tu Su is under Reverend Zi Yin. According to sect rules,

in order to punish a disciple, you should discuss with his teacher, and decide together.

Pushing the decision until later won't change anything.

Sister Hong Yu,

your meaning is

Head Reverend has to listen to Reverend Zi Yin?

So Reverend Zi Yin has the final word over everything?

It's our sect rules. I'm just stating the facts.

Ling Duan, what enmity do you have with Tusu?

Enough! Stop fighting over there

Hongyu, that's all for you today. You may go

-Head Reverend -Enough. Don't forget you're a Sword Master

Safeguarding of our swords should be your main concern

There's nothing you can do here. You may leave

Head Reverend

Baili Tusu is a jinx to Tian Yong City who must be rid of

But what Hongyu said is not completely wrong

Reverend Ziyin is still on a retreat

Ling Yue is not here now as well

Even if I were to punish him, those two should be present

If Reverend Ziyin's back, the punishment can't be carried out

Think about it

Reverend Ziyin has always been shielding him for all his mistakes in the past

How are the disciples supposed to accept the way they disregard our sect rules each time?

His student killed a man

But he'll only be locked up for a few years and that's it!

May I ask Head Reverend,

can I kill as I like too?

Fine

You won't avenge Zhaolin,

I will!

Wait a second

Fine. Go and get Reverend Ziyin

We'll decide on Tusu's punishment together

Yes.

Fu Qi, why?

I can't leave, I didn't kill Zhao Lin

If you don't leave you won't be able to get rid of the evil aura. Quickly, leave.

I can't leave Ting Yong City.

Besides, no one can control the sword if I leave

Sister Hong Yu.

Did you come to kill me?

I believe you. You wouldn't have killed Zhao Lin.

If you killed him you would admit it.

Because you never lie.

Listen to me and leave Ting Yong City.

Wait till Reverend Yin Zhen comes out or when your Senior brother returns

we will investigate the murder to prove your innocence then you should return

Remember, the time you spend outside

you have to suppress your evil aura, keep yourself alive.

Yes, Tusu.

My dad is making a rash judgement. Once he calms down he'll know

Return then.

They already knew you escaped. Hurry and leave.

Tusu

Don't hesitate anymore, leave.

Sister Hongyu

Tusu never left Ting Yong City since he arrived.

I'm worried something might happen once he's outside.

It won't.

Tusu is kind and intelligent

I believe he will take care of himself and suppress the evil.

The world has many problems

Life and death is inescapable

How high can you fly?

How far until breaking dawn?

The torment of illusions

To be reborn is also good

The floating water lanterns are brilliant for a day

I'm waiting for your embrace

Let me get drunk with the sword

How many glasses are left with a painful aftertaste

So sad that i can't speak

Tears have already evaporated

But that is alright

Let the rain clean the memories of sand

I don't have meat today.

Eat this for now.

wandering the world

Time has dyed your hair white

Ah Xiang

Where do you think we should go?

When we were at Ting Yong City

I've always wanted to see what it was like outside

Now that I'm out here,

the world is too big for me

I don't know where to go

The world is big. Home can be anywhere

I'll return to my hometown, Qin Chuan first

Let's go find Shao gong

Let me get drunk with the sword

How many glasses are left with a painful aftertaste

So sad that I can't speak

Tears have evaporated, but that is alright

Let the rain clean the memories of sand

And let me be free of all thoughts Then wander the world

Time has dyed your hair white

The years have sratched my face

The legend of the sword being unsheathed The blood is sprouting and it blossoms into flowers

The legend of the sword being unsheathed The blood is sprouting...

This is Shaogong's home?

Move, everyone move.

Quickly everyone move.

Don't block my way

Go away

Stop blocking me from flying on my sword.

Everyone move away quickly.

Get out, I can't stop it.

What are you laughing at?

It's all your fault.

It was going well, if you haven't stopped me I wouldn't have been injured.

Flying on a sword?

This is a washboard.

Not a sword.

What are you laughing at? Leave.

You can't leave. You're a swordsman right, you have a sword.

I guessed right?

Let me see your sword okay?

So fierce

Must be a strange swordsman who kills like those depicted in the books

My name is Fang Lansheng, what is yours?

Which school are you from?

This man must be a student of immortality cultivation

This man must be nuts

Thank you for saving me just now. I heard jianghu heroes love helping the needy

...but never ask anything in return. They sacrifice themselves for a noble cause...

Shut up

You're noisy

How can you be so rude

Confucious said "It is impolite to reciprocate"

I'm giving you so much praise, least you can do is be humbled.

Yet you said I'm noisy

Amazing! Could that be the legendary soaring skill?

Why does he look so cold and unfriendly?

Master, master. It's bad, your washboard

No, I mean, your flying sword knocked down Mrs. Chen's stall,

scared away Mr. Wu's chickens, bumped askew the magistrate's board, hit down Yan Wu Inn's lanterns,

and...ah, and the roof tiles of Sun's house! Now everyone's heading towards our house...

...to complain to second young mistress!!

Hold this flying sword. Let's go now!

Wang Cai

I don't look like I just caused trouble, do I?

Impossible to see.

Master, but the injury on your face

My injury is fine. If my sister sees this, she might even feel sorry for me.

My brother is insensible and naughty

As his sister I'll definitely scold him.

Everyone please don't worry

Tomorrow I'll have my butler send over the compensations

Second sister is truly a good person.

Then we shall leave, thanks.

Good bye. We don't have to worry then.

What are you looking at? Aren't you going to come out?

Sister, second sister

I have just learned a little on how to fly on a sword today.

I couldn't control it, it was an accident.

Even now my face hurts.

Oh you...

Sister, please don't be angry okay?

Look at you, always giving me trouble.

This morning your teacher told me you were absent

At noon, Mrs. Lin said you stole her washboard

It's more impressive later in the afternoon! Everyone from the greengrocer to the butcher...

...all came to me! How much trouble will you create?

Not so hard!

When will you change for the better?

I've learned my mistake, sis!

But sister, I bumped into a cold swordsman today

What swordsman?

We're a family with literary reputation! You don't even study hard

All you know is to learn sword and sorcery! Aren't you embarrassing our parents?

How is that embarrassing? Haven't they gone to learn those too?

Besides, my jade pendant has magical power too

Dad once said that I somehow have an affinity for magic

which also shows that I should learn it

You're still alive, what invisibility

Let me tell you Lansheng, if you mess around again, I won't give this jade pendant anymore

Do you believe that I will break it right now?

Sister!

I'll just listen to you. Don't be angry

If you are angry, then more wrinkles will appear

If my future brother in law sees it then he won't like you

No such thing as a brother-in-law yet

No need for you to worry

Tomorrow is the 1st day of the month. You shall distribute gruel to the hungry with me at the entrance

Take it as your chance to do good

Before dad left, he said...

Just for you to go alone, why are you dragging me along?

I'm not going.

Sister, don't be angry.

I'm hungry, go buy something for me to eat, okay?

Good sister.

You just know to eat.

Servant

May I ask

Where does Ouyang Shao Gong live?

Ouyang Shao Gong?

I haven't heard of him.

You aren't from here am I correct?

Have a seat there.

Where are you from and where are you going?

Don't be nervous, let me first introduce myself.

I am the person who knows half of what's going on up in heaven. And that knows everything in earth

There's nothing that I'm not clear of, people call me Qin Chuan's flower

The pugilistic world's researcher, Cha Xiaoguai

That's me.

Then do you know where Ouyang Shao Gong lives?

Of course, however

If you want to get information from me, you need to give me a reward.

Reward?

Silver taels

Silver taels?

Money.

What do you mean?

Where did you come from, don't even know what's money?

Did your master not tell you,

-Forget it You sect is seriously cut off from the outside world!

Wait! Seeing that you're new here and that you're handsome,

I will tell you this piece of information today

Ouyang Shaogong

Qin Chuan's Ouyang family's only son

His parents died early and now the Ouyang family's house is located...

in the west of the city.

Thanks

Hey! Didn't you say one silver tael for one piece of information? Why didn't you want his money?

Why didn't you want his money?

Mortal beings, short sighted

Does he look like he's normal? Will he owe me money?

Drink your tea!

Look at you, you are Fang family's young master.

Why is it every time we eat you're like you're starving.

Do you know that it is unlike the behaviors of an educated man?

Can you let me eat in peace ? There's nothing wrong with it.

Okay okay, hurry and eat.

In a couple of days, it is the death anniversary of Shaogong's parents.

Bring some workers over to his house and clean it up a bit

He already left for many years.

What if he came back already?

If he wanted to return, he would've came earlier.

Are you going or not?

I'll go.

Fell in love with the quietly flowing river of stars that fill the sky

as if a dream has covered itself in soft flowing robes

moist eyes cannot hold back the sorrow that stirs in my heart

In this moment, I should be leaning on your shoulder.

I still remember your simple and innocent appearance in the beginning

But now you've experienced the vicissitudes of life

Even if I'll get hurt, I'm still willing to forever

Wait at your side like this.

Look into the distance, in the direction in which you pointed

We went there to climb, to wander

In the distance, those clear bright times

Even now they are unforgettable.

Look into the distance, we were once impetuous in our youth

Nursing our dreams, we traversed the vast land

We searched for the heaven of love in distant places

I went flying with you.

Bravely fly into the distance.
