Sunba, I didn't think you would comehere.

Kung Seung Yoo, tell me who paid you to

come and kill me.

We have our own rules. In this trade, we

can't reveal our client's identity. You

will find out down in hell. I'll make you

tell me anyway, Kung Seung Yoo. Let's see

your exceptional powers tonight.

But all those who've ever seen my special

powers are lying in their graves now.

I don't believe it. You don't have a

weapon. How can you kill?

There are many ways of killing people.

The stupidest way is to kill with your

hat.

My friend, please stand aside. You are

now standing in my way.

But I've come especially to see you go to

hell. Nobody has ever dared to talk to me

like that. Just who are you?

The Star Sword, Long San Long. Ah

I have heard you've executed 12 killers

since you first appeared a month ago.

Unfortunately, you're number 13.

What the hell do you want?Everybody's

sleeping. It's very late. It's business.

Don't you know what time it is?Come back

tomorrow.

This is urgent. Please go and call your

chief. You really are very keen.

So what can our security office do for

you?I'm very sorry, Sir. I didn't mean to

be curt. That's all right. That's all

right. I got something here with me. I

want you to deliver it. How much will

you?5000 tails of gold.

We have a rule in our security office. We

don't guard unknown objects.

This is the map of Hongling's hiding

place. I've gone through a lot of trouble

for this.

Do you mean the same guy who's said to be

behind the high tank killer squad?That's

right. My master has always wanted to

get rid of this awful man and his

sinister organization. Haitang is

the worst of all the hill gangs. It is my

pleasure to help. I promise you,

I'll safeguard this map and deliver it

myself. Thank you.

Chief, this looks dubious.

Don't worry. I've heard of his master,

Suiyu Lao. He has a reputation of being a

very honest man. I've always wanted to

meet him.

Boss, everything's running very smoothly.

Chief Lor is on his way now to Suiyu Lau.

We must get rid of Chief Lor.

We will take over his whole place.

Don't let him reach there alive.

I know just what to do. So go and

do it then. Yes.

Here's an urgent message from an agent in

Haitang. Please give it to the chief.

Right, thanks. They're

from Haitang! You go now! I'll deal with

them all!

Did you know we'd pass our message here?

If you will put undercover men in Hai

Tang, then it should not surprise you if

we do the same to you.

Leave the box behind, then get the hell

out!So I arrived too late.

The two men from law security have died

for no reason. Cut that out. If you're

smart, you leave the box or you'll be

leaving your head here.

Murderer.

Try me.

Who the hell are you?The Star Sword, Lung

San Long.

It's an ambush. Now why do they say the

four King Kongs and the law security is

the best bodyguards?

So this is the way that the law security

normally greets a guest. Relax.

He's no enemy.

Chief Law, you're really very sharp.

If you intended to harm us, you wouldn't

have warned us with that leaf, right?This

is the message that your two men have

risked their lives to get. Please takeit.

High tongues men are everywhere. They've

already found out about this delivery.

Let them come then. I'd like to see just

how powerful they are. None of my men are

afraid of death. They spit in its face.

Let's go.

Poison!

Chief Law. All

these arrows are tipped with deadly

poison. So what'll you do?

What if we just stay in here?We don't

come out. Easy. I'll just set a fire.

That should get you out.

You people are cold-blooded. You're

animals! We are killers. We just do our

job. We don't care how it's done.

Red Sunset, if you want to see the sun

tomorrow, then you tell your men to drop

their bows. You dare

betray us?

I see. You're the Star Sword. Lung San,

look.

Now how come you know me then?

You're the bane of our lives. So now in

Hai Tang, every one of us

has got your picture.

Why did you infiltrate Haitang?Because my

main targets are these damn killers from

Haitang. Why did you want to get those

killers?Because they killed both my

parents. I see. So you want

revenge?Not revenge. It's for justice.

They have no right to kill, just for

money.

My tongue again.

We specially trained these four men...

just to take care of your fourbodyguards.

Floy, you're very good indeed.

You're not long.

Lung's been completely full. My men lured

him onto a false trail. I'd like to tell

you that all your men are dead now.

I'm gonna die.

Please take this to

the sword heights to soothe

you now.

Chief Law, your name will die with

you forever.

Of course, when you order someone's

death. Their fate is sealed. They're

already dead. It's been three

months now since Tae Yoon worked out on

me, and we still haven't

dealt with him.

The seven scouts we sent out are better

than hunting docs. I'm sure we'll

hear from them soon.

HmmTae Yoon is the best executioner we've

ever had. I never thought

that he'd run away with a woman.

Love and marriage are taboo for us.

Taeyun will pay a high price for them.

There's that guy who's out to get us

called Lung San Long. I want him dead

too. I can assure you, Lung

San Long will not live to ever leave

Sword Heights.

Tomorrow evening, we got another big job

to do. Who'd you plan to

use, boss?Well, Lone Eagle is the

most suitable man we have.

You take this order and send it

to him at Eagle's court.

Sir!

Red Sunset, please come in.

Very good, very good. So he worked

out it was me by the sound of my

footsteps.

Every eagle's eyes are different from the

others, and the same with our footsteps.

We're all different. Every time I come,

you're carving eagles. When do you think

you'll stop carving?I would only

stop when I stop killing men.

When did you carve your first eagle?When

I first killed a man. I understand.

So you carve an eagle every time you've

killed. Just

leave the order. You can go now.

Don't cut yourself off from the world

that we live in. Why don't you go out and

meet some friends?I only like.

Enemies who are dead, not friends that

are living.

The one with a hidden face who only kills

at night. So lone eagle, I see that's

your special mark as an executioner.

Everybody knows I never show my face to

anyone outside.

But I tell you, I don't believe what

people say that nobody escapes your third

strike. You better save

your breath.

Help! Help me! Please help

me! Help!

Help Help Help The

people from Hightown killed my husband,

and they want to kill me too! Please help

me, sir!

I am the Lightning Sword Chang Wu, and he

is the Thunderman Li O. You

better not upset my brother. His sword is

fast as lightning.

Bastard you just ask him for

this. If his sword's fast as

lightning, then mine's even faster than

lightning.

Thank you for saving my life.

HuhSo now, Lung Fan Long, you may be

clever, but you've finally fallen for my

trick as well.

You're the famous makeup artist, Kay.

who's able to disguise herself as a man.

A swordsman's defenses are down with a

woman, especially with a pregnant woman.

I don't understand how you were able to

see through my disguise. Because a very

pregnant woman couldn't run that fast,

even if she was running for her life.

No wonder they say that to kill Taeyeon

is difficult. But to kill Lung Fan Long

is impossible. Now you've got me. I have

no regrets. If I die now... So

from now on we have one less executioner

in the world.

I'm Xiu Lao. I heard Chief Law had

problems on his way. That's why I came to

help. I'm glad you're here. I

can fulfill Chief Law's last wish. You

have risked your life for this map. I

must buy you a few drinks today to thank

you for it.

Well, I drink. I don't like to be

disturbed. I happen to know a very quiet

place. Where?A place called Fairy

Den.

If you're the guest at Fairy Den,Then

you'll never be disturbed. Many gangsters

on the run have come here to hide.

What has brought you to Ferry Den, Master

Sue?Please have a seat. Please.

I come when I like, and I go when I like.

Give us your best food and wine. Hurry

up. Right away.

He's the bane of all killers, long sand

long. Let's get

rid of him right now. You're crazy. This

is the fairy den.

Scared. Then you shouldn't be here.

There is a man behind you. He wants to

kill you. He would seem to be tired of

living.

I think this is the reason things are so

expensive here.

Come, don't let that stop us.

I got a problem when I drink too much. I

talk too much. But it's

good to drink with a friend. Come.

This has caused so many people's death,

and they never knew that it was a fake

map.

You're drunk. I'm not drunk.

But very soon, you will be my friend.

Do you really think that a man in my

position would trust anybody?

Poison and wine. That's not new.

But you didn't know that the cup is

covered in poison.

So I understand. You planned this right

from the beginning. Chief Law's got

186 security branches.

Hai Tang swore to take them over. We used

the false map to lure Chief Lor out, but

we didn't know that you would interfere

with us and come into the picture. So we

got to get rid of you as well. I

think you must be the real boss here.

That's correct. I'm also the deputy to

the chief of Hai Tang.

I do admire your courage to try and

take on all the executioners. I

hope you will have the same courage in

facing your own death.

The thing that gives me the most pleasure

is to control lies.

Keep a close watch on him. Tomorrow,

I'll be back.

I'm the agent of the chief law here in

high tech.

I really don't know how to thank you.

You've helped us after all. We should

help you in return. Now that I've been

exposed, I can't stay here anymore.

Goodbye. Where can I answer you

now?Go to the Sword Heights and see

attendant share. He just might know.

This is unfair, lady. You should have an

audience for your nice music. Who are you?

How did you get here?I'm a wanderer.

I just happened to pass by.

Don't be afraid. I'm not afraid of you,

but the seven men coming up behind you.

Oh, dear. There are seven scouts from

High Tang. You go now. You

mustn't let any of them escape.

Tell you it really is living here. You go

back and report it at once, right?

Are you all right?He's too tired.

If I was still a killer, you'd be my

enemy today. I heard that your

enemies are all unlucky. I'm glad I'm

not. Why do you want to leave,

Haiti?Because I'm

tired of all this blood feuding.

Sometimes it's worse than if one was

dead. That depends on the kind of people

that we have to kill.

I'm sorry. I don't have any fancy food or

good wine here to thank you for your

help. Never mind. I just need a drink.

Also, I'd like to get drunk. Right.

I'm with you. I'd like to get drunk too,

for the first time, please.

Sutan, play a tune for us, please. Yes.

Very good. That's what I like.

I admire you and your courage. I saw the

style that you used on the Seven Ghosts.

I've made-up my mind to make friends with

you. Your wife is so intelligent

and versatile. No wonder that you gave up

your profession for it. You're mistaken.

Sutan is my friend and not my

wife. A man and a woman living together

in the same house and treating each other

as friends. I really envy you this

relationship.

Where's Taeyeon?He's gone fishing.

I better go. But you're not

fully recovered. Can't you stay a

bit longer?

Taeyeon goes fishing early every morning

and stays out all day. Fishing has become

his life. No one

had ever believed that the number one

executioner from Hai Tang would have

become a fisherman.

Fishing is much better than killing. Take

you, for example. You kill the

killers. But still, what does that get

you in the end?I don't really

care what it takes. I'll keep on

doing what is right. I just

don't want to see more families broken up

and children become orphans. You really

want to go?My job's not finished. I have

to go. Will you come again?Yes, I will.

You only came to drink with Taeyeon?

And to see someone else. See who?

You.

Me. I like listening to your music.

Just that. What else can I do?

Mr. Shi, if you still want to see the sun

tomorrow. Then tell me right now where Su

Yulao is. Master Su seldom sleeps here.

I don't know where he is now.

And next you'll lose your nose.

Go to the gambling tent. See Dan Wu.

He probably knows where Master Su is.

I've got it. Right,

gentlemen, come along. Put your bets. Put

your bets now.

Come on,

get him. Get him. Come on.

Come on!

Come on, Greg! Kill him! Peggy's over!

Come on, I'm gonna win! Kill him! Come

on, kill him!

$3 on the red. I bet 8 on the black. $3

Eight dollars. $10 on the red one.

My friend, please take your sword back.

Go get your money at the counter and

leave. This isn't yours. What did you

say?I've been around here for many years.

Nobody's ever talked to me like that.

This cheap damn sword. is worth nothing.

It's no use to us.

Bastard You say that my sword is worth

nothing?Ohh

Your sword is the same as your life.

It's worthless.

Gentlemen, I'm sorry. Please continue.

On the red, yeah, come

on. Come on

now. Get going. Dan Wu,

man to see you.

So you want me?Tell me,

where can I find Suyu Lao?

Whoever looks here for him is definitely

not his friend.

You're right, he's not. I wouldn't have a

friend like him. I wouldn't be connected

with him. If you're not his friend, then

you are my enemy. Cut out the crap!

Now tell me what Suyulau is. You want to

know?My sword will tell you.

Now you better tell me while you still

can.

The next stroke will cut open your

throat. He's at Blossom

Court.

Hey Chen, the water's cold. Fetch more

hot water. Yeah.

What are you doing?Someone

came looking for me. After I'd escaped,

I swore to myself that I'd kill you, but

had nothing in my hands. Aren't you

ashamed of killing an unarmed man?I

wouldn't turn a hair. killing a man like

you.

Oh, what'd you like, sir?Just wine.

The strongest wine in your shop. Right?

Hey, close your umbrella. It's very

unlucky. You're

crazy. You'd better sit

outside. I'm sorry for you. It's you

there must be crazy...

Come here.

This really is a small world, so now we

get to meet again.

This isn't the weather to travel in.

But it's good weather for killing.

Tonight, there'll only be one of us who

can cross this narrow willow bridge.

I'm so sorry. You have to stay.

Too bad. There aren't many with the

ability to kill Soi Han in this world.

Lung San Long is posing a major threat to

us. Hey Bots, then we must do

something about it.

Lone Eagle can take him. For

him, it'll be just as easy as killing

this fish.

If Lone Eagle will do it, then Lung San

Long will have no chance at all.

Cold moon, our lonely night. The

cold wind with the dying light.

This really is a good place for a duel.

Lone Eagle, I have heard that you only

kill at night.

Furthermore, I always kill within three

strikes.

Well, we

will very soon be seeing if you can

really keep up this great record.

It's already your second strike.

You'll never survive my third strike.

Red Sunset, you better commit suicide.

That way you save me the trouble of

burying you. Even if you can't kill me,

my boss will never let you live.

If it comes, then it comes. So relax. You

mustn't let yourself worry.

Ever since you left,My mind

has been very uneasy.

Do you feel unwell?I'm all right.

It's just a small cold.

Don't say long. Now we can have a

real drink. I came to ask you

about Hongling's hiding place. Yeah, I

must go. Hongling has been able to get

very many top fighters to work for him.

He's very well looked after. Killing him

won't be easy. Don't worry. I don't

underestimate him. You can find him at

Virgin Hill. I wish you the very best of

luck, my friend. If I do get back here

alive, then we'll drink for three days

and nights.

First he comes, and then he leaves.

He didn't even look at me. Does he really

have no feelings?Men like

him hide their emotions. Please fetch my

sword. But you don't use it

anymore. I must go give him a hand.

So for a friend, you'll get yourself

involved again?I've just realized

it's easy to get into and very hard to

quit. Once you're a fighter, there's no

way to avoid getting yourself involved

with these killings.

Look, Saglo, although you're the

first one that's managed to reach Virgin

Hill. You know,

you really have no chance. In coming

here, I never intended to get out alive.

You've killed a lot of innocent people

for money. And

now it's time for you to pay. We'll wait

and see. If I do live,

you have to die, Long Sang Long.

Too bad. We can't fight in the

house. So let's go out on the bridgethen.

So you're not Hong Ling?I'm

only paid deposes him.

He is Hong Ling. You

mustn't believe him. Tell you,

why are you here?I want you to drink with

me, so I thought I'd better help you.

You don't need your disguise anymore.

You're no front man, only a dead

body. Why is that?Because you know far

too much about me.

You'd even kill your own people. You

really are an evil bastard

Lung Sanlong, how did you escape my

sleep, miss?Because I have learned to

control my breathing. Lung Sanlong,

you're really very good.

I know that you're not Tae Yun. Take your

disguise off now. How do you know I'm not

Tae Yun?Because Tae Yun would never fight

underhanded. I

must say that at last it seems I found

myself an equal. I

didn't think it'd be you, Su Yulau.

The guy you killed at Blossom Court was a

substitute. If not, you'd never have

killed him so easy. So I see.

Swordmaster Su Yu Lao is also Hai Tang's

Hong Ling. Your skill of makeup is even

better than your girl K. That's not

surprising, as I taught her everything

she knows. Of course, I'd be

better than she is.

I've heard people say that the

swordsmanship at sword heights is both

fast and accurate. And now I

see that what people say is correct.

In this world, everyone knows that

Suyu Lao is the most skillful fighter

there's ever been in our clan, and I'm

the best of them all.

You started high tanks secretly without

their knowledge. All your clan's good

reputation is now in ruins.

But nobody will know that if you are

dead. And there's no one can stop. Hai

Tang!

So you did come. I killed too many in the

past. I'm a sinful man. I

came here to pay the price.

Everyone says you're a callous man. Maybe

your sword is, but definitely not you.

So my 7 scouts have failed to kill you. I

didn't know that you would dare to come

here by yourself, even if he is callous.

A man can sometimes have feelings,

but an animal like you has absolutely no

feelings whatsoever.

Are you all right?I'm OK.

I've already found out the real reason

that you quit, Taeyoon. It was

not because of women. That

was only a cover-up for you.

You've got a deadly disease, you'll die

soon. That's why you quit Hai Tang.

I

like killing people. I like blood. I'll

kill you all. I like it at the top.

Suyulao's just a maniac who likes to

pursue power. He's just a man who's

gone insane. The sad thing is,

I used to be just the same.

You really got a terminal disease?

Better die fighting than die

in bed, that's why.

I can't help you to kill him.

I'll leave... Sutan...

to you. No.

She is... a nice

girl. She's...

Here's an outstanding man, a real

friend, and now I've lost him.

His feelings died a long time ago,

so maybe this was the best thing for him.

I want to go with you. I can't take you

with me. You don't like me?I

like you. That's why I can't take you

with me. Why's that?Because I'm a

fighter. I could die anytime. I don't

want you to get hurt.

We're just two clouds that happen to pass

on the wind.
