=Episode 8=

Capture the Jin envoy alive

and kill the young prince!

Your Highness, we are ambushed.

Kneel down.

You are the envoy?

Since you know my identity,

how dare you tie me up?

You're not afraid of getting into trouble?

Young Master, don't listen to his nonsense.

Just kill him.

Take him away

and wait for my father's decision.

Let's go.

Young Master is right.

Let's hurry

to clean up the battlefield.

- Go. - Go.

Jing.

What are you doing?

I will go and talk

to Young Master Lu.

Yang Kang is definitely not the envoy of the Jin Empire.

Yang Kang helps the villain to do evil.

If we rush to help him,

we will definitely be regarded as Jin people's allies.

Rong, there must be a misunderstanding.

Yang Kang must have been manipulated.

Okay, Jing,

we don't know

if Yang Kang is really

the secret envoy of the Jin Empire.

But since he showed up

on the ship of the Jin people,

he must be involved.

If Yang Kang loses his life here,

Mu Nianci

would regret it all her life.

Mu Nianci.

You always think about her.

Rong.

I didn't mean that.

Alright.

I was just kidding.

At present,

we are not sure about Lord Lu's background.

We must not act recklessly.

So let's wait

and choose the right time to help,

okay?

Okay, I'll listen to you.

You are the secret envoy

of the Jin Empire?

You robber.

You guys used tricks

to take a cheap shot on me,

not daring to confront me fairly.

Heroes in the martial world will laugh at you.

You are one of the Jins.

You're not qualified

to mention the martial world to us.

I thought men on the Taihu Lake

were all upright and honest

heroes.

Turns out

you're not as good as they say.

Why?

Just a batch of villains

who takes advantage of the few.

If I defeat you in a one-on-one fight,

then you will die without complaint?

Right.

If anyone in the Guiyun House

can beat me

with real skills,

I'll surrender willingly

and let you do as you like

with me.

Dad.

I'll go challenge him.

Someone, untie him.

We'll have a duel.

I'll make you lose fair and square.

Nine Yin Skeleton Claw.

I have seen this move before..

It seems that Yang Kang

has many secrets that we do not know.

You kid,

how dare you act recklessly in my Guiyun House!

Lord Lu

kept his martial arts well hidden.

Who are the Twin Killers in the Dark Wind to you?

Twin Killers in the Dark Wind?

I don't know them.

Since you refuse to speak,

you might as well stay in this house

and answer my question

until you figure it out.

Your son couldn't beat me,

so he asked his father for help.

So this is your so-called

one-on-one battle?

Take him away.

Go.

What should we do, Rong?

Should we save him?

Calm down.

Let me think about it first.

I have always thought that

Lord Lu is very eccentric.

Why is that?

I thought Guiyun House

was just the headquarters of the heroes near Taihu Lake.

But I never expected that

the moves Lu Chengfeng used

were all from Peach Blossom Island.

But I have never heard my father

mention them.

There must be something fishy going on.

I need to investigate further.

Do you think he knows

Mei Chaofeng?

There are people out there.

Shush!

Mu Nianci.

Well...

She's going to save her hero.

What are you doing here?

But the roads here are strange.

I'm afraid Mu Nianci will get lost.

Rong, you are the smartest.

Can you help her come up with ideas?

Okay.

I just wanted to see

what ways she has to save him.

But it seems

if she continues to walk like this,

she won't be able to save Yang Kang.

Who is it?

Go left.

Believe it or not.

Otherwise, you'll be trapped here.

Who?

Kang.

Nianci.

Is it really you?

It's me.

It's not easy to get in

this creepy place.

It's useless.

Look.

These handcuffs are made of stainless steel.

They can't be opened without a key.

What should we do?

I will go steal the key right away.

Don't go.

The enemies here are powerful.

You can't take the risks.

Well,

I can't just stand by and watch you

being imprisoned like this.

Rest assured.

They dare not hurt me easily.

At present,

there is an urgent matter that I need you to help me with.

Come.

Take off the gold chain

around my neck

and give it Prime Minister Shi Miyuan

of Lin'an Prefecture.

Tell him

if a Mongolian envoy

comes to Lin'an,

do not meet him.

Kill him as soon as he sees him.

Why kill the envoy?

Your life is at stake.

But you want me to send the message first.

This is a very important matter

which concerns our future happiness.

If it goes wrong,

I'm afraid our lives will be in danger.

Don't lie to me.

I've been watching you hanging out with the Jin people.

And now you want me to pass on the message.

Is it that

the Jins are trying to drive a wedge

in the relations between the Mongols and the Song Dynasty?

You're indeed brilliant.

But now,

I don't care at all

the relations between the Song Dynasty,

the Jin Empire

and the Mongols.

I only care about getting things done

and saving my own life.

So I can spend the rest of my life with you.

If only by colluding with the enemy can we survive,

I would rather die.

Why act recklessly

to ruin our future happiness?

Stop trying to deceive me with your sweet words.

Anyway,

I will never help the Jins.

Well,

I'm not forcing you to go against your will.

But this place is dangerous.

Neither you nor I can come and go freely.

You go to the temple in the barren hills

30 miles north of Suzhou

and ask my master to come and rescue me.

Is he

Taoist Qiu?

No.

It's my other master.

Okay.

My master is blind in both eyes.

You need to find a wooden board

and carve the letters,

"Wanyan Kang is in trouble

at Guiyun House

on the west bank of Taihu Lake."

When she reads this,

she will come to rescue me.

My master has a strange temper.

Just place the wooden board under the skull

and leave quickly,

in case she hurts you.

Take care, Kang.

I will.

A treacherous person

who associats with the evil.

He is not worth saving.

I just feel sorry for Mu Nianci.

- Let's go, Rong. - Okay.

(Wanyan Kang is in trouble at Guiyun House on the west bank of Taihu Lake)

Who's out there?

Let me go.

Smells so good.

You pervert.

Such a beautiful girl,

coming here alone so late at night.

What if something dangerous happens?

I would feel heartbroken.

Stay away from me.

I can do that

as long as you accept me as your master.

I can leave immediately.

I'm just worried

you don't want me to go.

Young Master.

She's here.

Take her with you

and take good care of her.

Yes.

What do you want to do?

Let me go.

Who is here?

Witch.

If you hand over the Nine Yin Manual today,

I can spare your life.

It depends

on your abilities.

Witch.

You stole the manual.

After more than twenty years, you should have learned it well.

Why don't you give it to me?

Let us be reconciled

and forget the past grievances.

How nice it would be.

Break the snake formation.

Give me the manual.

Then catch it.

Witch.

You have to do it the hard way.

Lord Lu.

There is no solution to this move.

You better admit defeat.

I didn't expect that

you're knowledgeable about calligraphy and painting

and your chess skills are also superb.

One more game.

One more game.

Dad.

Someone brought this.

Who sent it?

I don't know.

The person who brought it has already left.

Dad.

What's the mystery behind this skull?

It must be the work

of the Twin Killers in the Dark Wind.

The two of them have had a long-standing feud with me,

and this time,

they'll bring great disaster.

What disaster

can scare you so much?

Guanying.

Escort your mother

to the North Manor in Wuxi.

Pass my order to the chiefs of each village

to watch their villagers.

Regardless of the situation in Guiyun House,

none of them can come to help.

What about you, Dad?

Me?

It's time

to settle the old grudges.

- Dad. - Go ahead.

- Dad. - Go.

Since you know you'll be outmatched by them,

you should find a place to hide.

A wise man knows when to retreat.

These two betrayed their sect,

but I was implicated

and ended up half disabled.

For the past twenty years,

I didn't go after him for revenge.

Now they have come to me instead.

I just hope we can perish together.

(Year of Bumper Harvest)

Thank you for your hospitality, Lord Lu.

I met you two by chance

but we really hit it off.

In just a few days, I have taken you as my confidants.

I really don't want this to implicate you.

If I can luckily survive this,

I'll invite you both

to Guiyun House again.

Okay.

You two really make

a perfect match.

This is a little something from me

to congratulate you

on your marriage in the future.

Please take it.

Lord Lu.

When did you realize I was a woman?

I am just physically disabled,

it's not like I have eye problems.

I have no other talents.

In the past, my mentor taught me

some medical knowledge.

I could make some medicine

that prolong lives.

We have known each other for a while,

so I will give it to you.

Consider it my way

of paying respect.

Nine-Flower Jade Dew Pill.

You know this pill?

When I was young, I was weak and frail.

An eminent monk gave me three pills.

They were very effective.

Therefore, I know that they are very precious pills.

This Nine-Flower Jade Dew Pill

are made from

precious herbs,

and also need

morning dew on nine types of flower petals.

It can only be refined

at special times and seasons.

Requires a lot of effort.

I'm deeply grateful

to your affection.

You two don't need to refuse.

I have no use for it.

Thank you, Lord Lu.

I heard that Guiyun House was in trouble,

so I came to help.

Having Mr. Qiu Qianren,

Iron Palm Water Skimmer,

here to help,

I think

the Twin Killers in the Dark Wind

are not a concern anymore.

Sir, please sit down.

Since the last duel atop Mount Huashan,

it's been more than twenty years

since I appeared in the martial world.

Over these twenty years,

the only thing accompanying me

is myself

and endless loneliness.

I appreciate it that

you still remember my name.

I once heard

about the duel atop Mount Huashan

and you were invited to attend.

But you didn't make it

due to some urgent matters.

But your martial arts skills must be extraordinary,

not inferior to the Five Greats.

It's been said in the martial world

that Western Venom, Northern Beggar, Eastern Heretic,

Southern Emperor, and Central Diviner

are the best martial artists.

When it comes to the powers,

the Central Diviner Wang Chongyang ranks top.

The other four

each has their own strengths

But the shortcomings

are also particularly obvious.

Why don't you defeat

the Five Greats

and make a name for yourself?

I have this intention.

Who said that?

I have long heard of your name.

I am just a nobody,

asking for

a few tips from you.

The Guiyun House

is the brain of the heroes of Taihu Lake.

Mr. Lu's martial arts are already wonderful.

If I give him some guidance,

it will surely enhance his skills

and double the might.

By that time,

even the Twin Killers in the Dark Wind

will have to fear you

or become

terror-stricken.

You flatter me.

I have been disabled for a long time.

I dare not

show my incompetence in front of you.

Mr. Qiu.

If you are willing

to give some advice to my son,

that's really his blessing.

Mr. Qiu.

I learned from Master Kumu

of Yunqi Temple in Lin'an Prefecture.

Kumu?

He is a skilled practitioner of Xianxia Sect.

His martial arts

can get by.

In this case,

let me test

what you're capable of.

Please instruct me.

Enough.

You broke the tile with one kick.

It seems you're powerful,

but it's actually useless.

The enemy is not a tile.

He won't let you punch him at will.

If the enemy has strong internal power,

and your fist bounces back,

what will you do?

Watch carefully.

Impressive.

Thank you for your guidance, Mr. Qiu.

Rong.

Do you recognize this move?

It's called

"burning firewood in the belly".

Which sect is this from?

Why does the name sound so weird?

The move is also weird.

Miss Huang, you must be joking.

If Mr. Qiu has

such strong internal power,

then he can harm people easily.

Rong.

You're teasing me again.

I'm flattered.

You do have great martial arts skills.

If you attended

the duel atop Mount Huashan,

you would have had a seat

among the Five Greats.

Let's not mention the past.

Lord.

Lord, six strange people have come.

They want to break in.

Dad, I'll go take a look.

Who are you?

If you don't say your names,

I won't be polite then.

Zhen'e,

this guy is acting like a snob.

Since that's the case,

why bother

talking to him?

Let me teach him a lesson first.

Is it really

the Twin Killers in the Dark Wind?

But there are six of them.

They must have known that I am here

so they got scared

and brought helpers.

It is possible.

Wait a moment, Young Master.

- Jing. - Jing.

Jing.

Masters,

it's really you guys.

Jing.

How come you are here?

Young Master.

They are my masters.

Masters,

I'm truly sorry

for the misunderstanding.

It's a misunderstanding.

Jing.

Why are you two still together?

Jing.

If you don't

go with us today,

don't recognize us as your masters.

The six of you

are like parents to me.

I can't abandon you.

Well, in that case,

leave this little witch.

Cranky old man.

Master.

I really like Rong.

I can't leave her.

We Seven Freaks of Jiangnan

always act decisively.

How could our disciple

be so indecisive?

Old man,

stop dilly-dallying.

If the Twin Killers in the Dark Wind come...

Don't talk to me.

Twin Killers in the Dark Wind?

I have long heard of your name.

I was being rude today.

I will drink a toast

to express my apologies.

I thought

Mr. Guo didn't know martial arts.

But unexpectedly,

you learned from great masters.

Today adding your help,

we could easily deal with

the Twin Killers in the Dark Wind.

Lord Lu.

Don't be so polite.

This is...

He's Mr. Qiu,

Iron Palm Water Skimmer.

These six heroes can be counted

as seniors in the martial world of Jiangnan.

Why are you also trapped

in personal grievances

and can't extricate yourselves?

Mr. Qiu.

Why say that?

People in the martial world

should be chivalrous

and save the people from suffering. This is the high road!

You're right.

You're right.

We should reflect on this.

I have a good thing here.

If we can get your help,

it would be better.

Mr. Qiu,

please enlighten us.

The Jin army is advancing southward

and many innocent people

will die

when the war starts.

Every time I think of this,

I feel despondent

and shed tears.

How can we save the people?

I heard you

captured the young prince of the Jin Empire.

If we can release him...

What are you saying?

Let him go back?

Exactly.

This is the first step.

And then gather the heroes of martial world

to collaborate,

so that our emperor will understand

we can make them retreat without a fight

and avoid the war

for the common people.

It also proves our chivalrous spirit.

I may not be extremely

talented and capable,

I always uphold the principles

of loyalty and righteousness.

Did you say that

to test me

on purpose?

Sort of.

It appears that

I am simply not satisfied.

The Song Dynasty is already in decline.

What benefits are there to resist the Jins?

In the end, we will only

perish tragically.

I thought Mr. Qiu

was warm-hearted person

of integrity.

I didn't expect him

to be so shameless as a person.

(Such strong finger strength.)

(This person's strength is probably)

(comparable to my father's.)

Contradictions of thoughts defriend people.

With superb martial arts skills,

you won't use that to threaten us, right?

Showing off.

I have long heard of the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan.

I've been wanting

to see what you are capable of.

Bring it on!

Zhen'e.

I'll go first.

No need to argue.

You can fight me together.

Come.

Masters, please wait.

You've always

taught me

that a martial artist

should uphold righteousness.

But as a skilled master,

Mr. Qiu

is thinking about betrayal.

I will challenge you

for my masters first.

- Jing. - Jing.

You are no match for him.

Good advice is harsh to the ear.

Why bother?

Don't waste

your own life.

Please enlighten me, sir.

I thought it was some extraordinary martial arts.

Turns out to be just Through Back Fist Palm.

Stop.

This is incorrect.

My palm technique

seems ordinary,

but I've practiced

and refined it for years.

It confuses the opponent

and kills him unknowingly.

- Jing. - Jing.

Jing, are you okay?

Old crap,

dared to bully my disciple.

Do you think we're dead?

Masters,

I'm fine.

Let me try again.

You are from the Iron Palm Sect.

Let me take another palm from you.

Jing.

Don't do this.

Hearing you say such words

in front of me

makes me have

a little respect for you.

Since you are determined to die,

I will grant your wish.

No need to force yourself.

You can fall down now.

Rong.

Masters.

This old man's martial arts are mediocre.

It's fine if he doesn't hit me.

But after this palm,

he revealed his weakness.

Those are just some superficial moves.

What did I say?

I actually thought

you were some kind of hero.

Turns out

you're just a liar.

I just pitied him

for being young

and immature.

So I retracted 90 percent of my power.

Otherwise he would be either dead or seriously wounded.

Take care of yourself.

Take a palm from me.

I have not asked for your name.

Mei Chaofeng.

We meet again.

Enough with the greetings.

I am already blind in both eyes.

And Xuanfeng

was killed.

Are you satisfied now?

(Lord Lu is indeed a disciple of my father.)

Who killed Senior Chen?

Have you avenged him?

I am searching for them everywhere.

Okay.

Well, in that case,

I will help you find the murderer.

After you avenge him,

we can settle our old accounts.

No.

Seven Freaks of Jiangnan.

Be careful.

She carries poison in her hands.

Jing.

Since you're so skilled,

why not stay and watch the battle?

You could give some advice.

Advice?

How ridiculous.

Their master is dead.

What's the point of talking about revenge here?

What did you say?

I said it hurts.

What did you say?

Huang Yaoshi is dead.

Who killed him?

Seven Immortals of Quanzhen.

Who killed Master?

I...

Let me say it one last time.

Seven Immortals of Quanzhen

under Wang Chongyang.

Is what you said

all true?

I always speak and act cautiously.

How could I joke about this?

It just happened.

Master.

I will charge into Zhongnan Mountain

and destroy the Quanzhen School.

Is my father dead?

Rong.

It can't be true.

I will accompany you

to go back to Peach Blossom Island.

Miss Huang.

I didn't expect you to be...

Why am I so ignorant?

Except for the people of Peach Blossom Island,

who else would know the Nine-Flower Jade Dew Pill?

Junior sister.

I will go find the Seven Immortals of Quanzhen

to avenge Master.

Lu Chengfeng.

Let's go now.

We won't come back

until we avenge him.
