EPISODE 38

-Be quiet. -Xiaoyu.

-Don't listen to her. -She has already said all that.

You should at least respond to her.

Do you think she is really going to jump?

She is just bluffing!

Women are best at crying and kicking up a fuss.

Are you all right?

Devilish Girl.

Don't scare me.

Devilish Girl, wake up.

Devilish Girl!

You can't die!

You can't die!

Devilish Girl!

All right. I'll listen to you.

Are you crazy?

We're not related at all. Why did you try to kill yourself for me?

You want me to be grateful to you

and be your slave forever, right?

I don't want a slave.

I want you to be my husband!

Have you ever seen such a shameless woman?

You're so lucky to see one today.

You tried to kill yourself for a man,

but he gets a headache at the sight of you.

Don't you feel ashamed?

You say you're having a headache, but you're actually loving it.

If you don't care about me at all, you wouldn't have tried to save me.

I...

Even if a dog fell in here, I would try to save it too!

I know you're saying all these mean things and pretending to be annoyed

to put up a brave front.

You're afraid you will fall madly in love with me.

I'm doomed.

I ran into a woman with such wishful thinking.

I should have just died from the fall!

That's right. Both of us didn't fall to our deaths.

That means we're destined to be together.

Xiaoyu'er, you've finally met your nemesis.

You can tell too, right?

He actually likes me.

You have such a huge blister on your foot.

How long were you walking around?

I searched all the pits on Mount Gui until I finally came to this one.

How did you know I am in a pit cave?

This time, not even the world's smartest person has managed to guess it.

Don't keep me guessing. Tell me.

It was Hua Wuque.

"Hua Wuque"?

What do you mean?

I found out that you and Hua Wuque were in Lord Shan Residence.

So I went there to find you,

but I ran into him on my way there.

Mr. Hua.

Ms. Su, do you know where Trumpet Pit Cave is?

"Trumpet Pit Cave"?

I have a friend named Jiang Xiaoyu.

He has been on Mount Gui for many days.

He had been poisoned and was tricked into Trumpet Pit Cave by Jiang Yulang.

His life might be in danger. I have to find him.

Come with me.

We'll reach the place after passing through those woods.

Mr. Hua.

You're in such a hurry to find Xiaoyu'er.

Are you trying to save him

-or kill him? -I want to save him

and kill him.

I really don't get it.

Ms. Su.

Ms. Su!

Ms. Su!

Ms. Su.

Are you intentionally leaving me behind?

Ms. Su.

Why are you doing this?

You tricked Hua Wuque?

Why?

I couldn't bring him here and watch him kill you.

Besides, I've killed two birds with one stone.

How is that killing two birds with one stone?

Think about yourself instead.

Hua Wuque said you've been poisoned with the Jade Crimson Bane.

Do you know that when the poison takes effect,

it feels even worse than death?

I remember you once said that when you get too happy in life,

it's not a bad thing if someone makes you suffer a little.

It's my turn now.

It's just poison.

I want to see what kind of experience it's going to be.

Even if the sky comes crashing down, you'll still not be bothered by it.

All right. Give me your hand.

Let me check your pulse.

Ms. Su.

Why are you here?

Don't worry, Mr. Hua.

I'm not here to look for you.

I will leave now.

I won't cause you any more trouble.

Ms. Tie.

That wasn't what I meant.

You've made things clear at Lord Shan Residence that day.

I'm a burden and will only cause you trouble.

Since you don't wish to see me, we can go our separate ways.

A dark miasma.

This is bad, Ms. Tie.

Come with me.

Go away. Mind your own business!

This vapor is poisonous. We need to leave quickly.

Don't you hate me?

Why are you still following me?

Do you want to die here?

Even if I have to die here, I don't want to be a burden.

Are you really not leaving?

Ms. Tie.

Leave me alone! Let go!

Let me go, Hua Wuque!

-I never despised you! -Let me go!

I've never hated you either.

If you want me to leave you alone, I'd rather die!

Don't worry.

Your eyes will be fine once you rinse them with water.

I'll get you some water.

Mr. Hua.

You purposely gave me the cold shoulder.

Why did you do that?

Now that it has come to this,

are you still not willing to tell me the truth?

I swore to my aunts

not to have anything to do with you anymore.

So that's the real reason

why the masters of Yihua Palace spared my life.

Then, in the secret room in Lord Shan Residence,

why did you chase me away?

Why didn't you listen to me?

Why did you come to Lord Shan Residence?

You have brought me nothing but trouble since I met you.

If not for you, I would have killed Jiang Xiaoyu by now!

Tie Xinlan, you are a nuisance to me.

I never want to see you again.

I was hit by poisoned needles that day.

I thought I was going to die.

I was afraid my enemies would come after you.

Why are you always thinking of others?

Have you thought about yourself?

How was I going to live on if you had really died there?

Your eyes are hurt.

Don't cry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I thought I was the only one with a hard life at that time.

I even threw tantrums at you.

I never considered your situation.

I'm sorry.

It's all in the past.

What matters now is your eyes.

Close your eyes if it hurts.

I'll help you.

Such a delicate and fragile woman

actually had so much courage.

Why can't I be like her?

I should just die without fear.

Master Yaoyue.

You didn't want to die back then,

but you want to die now?

It's too late for that.

That man actually ran away?

You lied to me because of him,

but he abandoned you.

This is all your own doing.

You knew there are no good men in this world.

Why did you fall for his trick?

Just kill me!

Don't worry.

I'll make sure you have a painful death.

Never did I expect the masters of Yihua Palace to be so vicious.

Who's there?

Can't you recognize my voice?

Have you forgotten?

When I went to the restroom,

you were standing out there and smelled all my foul smells!

Xiaoyu'er?

Where are you?

You finally admit you're Mr. Tong, right?

Although you changed your voice and made it sound like a man,

I knew you were a woman the whole time.

Are you inside this pit cave?

That's right!

I'm inside this pit cave. Get down here!

I've been waiting for you to come to my rescue.

I know you don't want me to have an easy death, right?

You can't bear to.

That's right.

I indeed can't bear to see that.

If I don't see Tie Pinggu right now, I'll kill myself right here and now!

-How dare you! -There's nothing I don't dare do!

I will live and die as I wish. I'll do whatever I want!

The life or death duel with Hua Wuque is drawing near anyway.

I'm going to die anyway. I might as well just die from biting off my tongue.

All right.

Have it your way.

You will have your wish.

I didn't expect the masters of Yihua Palace to be such fools.

Now that Tie Pinggu is in my hands,

why do I have to listen to you?

-You... -Yaoyue.

Don't get worked up.

He can't escape anyway.

I see Master Lianxing is the smart one.

You should hurry and find Hua Wuque.

Don't let Twelve Zodiac kill him.

Or else, we wouldn't be able to have our duel.

Why don't you go and search for Wuque?

I'm afraid Wei Wuya will find him and kill him.

How could Wei Wuya be a match for Wuque?

What I'm worried about is this brat.

I'll keep guard here. He won't be able to escape.

There's one more thing!

I'm starving!

Hurry up and get me something to eat!

You already know what I like.

If I don't get anything nice to eat in an hour,

I just might kill myself out of hunger.

Let's wipe your eyes one last time.

Hang in there.

Just shout if you feel pain.

I'm used to your loud voice anyway.

Can you see clearly now?

Yes.

It has never been clearer than this moment.

Let's go.

What's the matter?

Your hand...

Did you cut yourself back there in the woods?

It's fine.

Aunt Yaoyue is summoning me.

I have to go and meet her.

Can you not go?

You know well enough that she is summoning you

to force you to fight Xiaoyu'er.

Ms. Tie.

There are many things in life that are beyond our control.

I have no choice.

The water level is rising. What should we do?

Xiaoyu'er.

Thank you for saving me.

We're friends.

Of course I had to save you.

Devilish Girl, her leg is injured. Why aren't you treating her?

Why are all the beautiful girls your friends?

It's so weird.

Ms. Su, please don't misunderstand.

-Xiaoyu'er and I-- -No need to explain.

You're friends with him.

That means you have good taste.

It hurts.

Your leg isn't broken. It's just that your knee is dislocated.

Lift your leg.

Hang in there.

It hurts.

How is it?

Ms. Su is indeed very skilled.

Not bad.

I thought this place had the smell of wine.

I didn't expect it's actually

the smell of jealousy.

Let me ask you a question.

What is it?

Tie Pinggu.

Do you know why the master of Yihua Palace hates me so much?

The main part is she hates me to the core, but why doesn't she kill me herself?

She even disguised herself as Mr. Tong to make Hua Wuque fight me.

Why would she do that?

We dare not ask anything about the masters' affairs.

So I don't know what her intention is either.

It is a little strange indeed.

Looks like only the two sisters know the reason.

I'm afraid they'll never reveal the secret as long as I'm alive.

Can you talk about something more useful?

If the water level keeps rising, we're going to drown!

Don't worry.

I assure you that we won't drown.

We will even find a way out.

Otherwise, why would I get Tie Pinggu down here?

I wouldn't want her to die down here with us.

You're confusing me even more.

This mountain is on the waterfront.

The water in this pit cave surely comes from the river.

The river has low tides and high tides.

When the tide rises, the water here rises as well.

When the tide falls, the water will subside.

Judging from the time, the tide will be going out soon.

Even so, how are we going to find a way out?

Since the water can get in here,

there must be a hole that connects to the river.

After the tide goes out,

we can surely find the hole.

Yes, you're right!

Am I right?

You know what?

A smart woman will act dumb before men.

The problem with you is you don't know how to act dumb.

No men dare to approach you.

But you're not an ordinary man.

There's only one man like you in the whole world.

Besides, you know all this.

I still don't know as much as you.

Who threw that?

You almost killed someone!

You would have paid for that with your life!

Aren't you starving to death?

Why do you still say so much nonsense?

At least you're still sensible enough.

Here.

Ms. Su.

It's roasted chicken.

Here.

Take this.

It's delicious.

The water is really receding!

I'll go search for the exit.

I found the exit! It's here!

Really?

Xiaoyu'er, let's go.

Xiaoyu'er.

Can't you sleep some other time?

Why must you take a nap right now?

Why do I want to leave?

I want to stay here and wait for Hua Wuque.

Are you really going to wait for him?

We made a deal three months ago.

But the masters of Yihua Palace are here

to force him to fight to the death with you.

That is not called a fight to the death.

Between martial arts masters like us,

I guess it's more or less exchanging blows.

Stop arguing semantics.

It's obviously a fight to the death.

I know the power of Yihua Jade Swapping Palm.

You're no match for him.

Whether or not I can defeat him, it has nothing to do with you.

Of course it does!

If you can't kill him, he is going to kill you!

If you wait here, it's as good as waiting for death!

You guys can leave if you want.

I'm going to take a nap.

I can't breathe.

I think the poison is taking effect.

Did he poison you?

Yes.

What did the poison taste like?

It was salty and wet.

And it had an earthy flavor.

That's probably not poison.

He was just bluffing you.

You believe the poison is taking effect.

I think it's more like your mind is playing tricks on you.

What is it if it's not poison?

I don't know either.

Perhaps it was a mudball he made from the dirt on his body.

Are you staying as well?

I have nothing left now.

What is the point of leaving?

I know you're heartbroken.

You think you're very stupid.

You wish you'd never been born,

but you're not the one at fault.

You can't punish yourself over someone else's mistakes.

You're right.

What should I do then?

Blaming yourself is not going to help heal the pain.

You need to live.

You need to live well.

Let those who are at fault receive the punishment they deserve.

I got it.

Thank you.

Hey.

What are you doing?

Everyone else is gone. Why are you still here?

Why should I leave?

It's so comfortable here.

Listen.

I'm already so annoyed.

-If you stay here, I will... -What will you do?

If you don't want to see me,

you may leave.

Very well, Devilish Girl.

I surrender.

Aunt Yaoyue.

Wuque.

Why is she here?

Don't blame Hua Wuque.

He abides by your order and doesn't even say a word to me.

I insisted on following him around.

How dare you.

Aunt Yaoyue, it's my fault.

Please punish me.

Wuque.

It seems that you're besotted with her.

I'm so disappointed in you.

I'll only ask you a question.

Are you really going to go against your oath because of her?

I dare not go against my oath.

Come with me.

What are you doing?

This place is so humid.

If we don't wrap the food properly, it'll be moldy.

Just let it be.

Do you plan to bring it back?

Do you think that the masters of Yihua Palace

can bring Hua Wuque here so soon?

Xiaoyu'er!

Are you in there?

Can you hear me?

Hua Wuque, I'm down here!

Put down a rope. Hurry!

All right, wait for me!

Xiaoyu'er, take it!

Hold it tight!

Come on.

You should just leave.

I don't want to go up to witness your death.

Fine, I'll go by myself.

-Let go of me! I don't want to go up! -Pull the rope!

Hold me tight.

Are you all right?

Hua Wuque, I heard that you were hit by poisoned needles.

It seems that you've recovered.

Thank you for your concern.

How did you get trapped in there?

How long have you been in the cave?

-Are you hungry? -No.

There are wine and meat.

-I was so happy down there. -Wuque.

So you're Master Yaoyue?

Surprisingly, you're quite calm to see me.

This is not the first time we have met each other.

Am I right, Mr. Tong?

Aunt Yaoyue.

Are you Mr. Tong?

Yes.

I'm Mr. Tong.

Why was that?

The martial arts world is full of dangers.

Furthermore, Jiang Xiaoyu is full of craft and cunning.

Yaoyue worried that you might be too soft-hearted.

That's why she disguised herself as Mr. Tong to lend you a hand.

Why are you explaining it to him?

Wuque.

Do you still remember your promise?

It has been three months.

Why haven't you killed him yet?

Hold on!

I've just come out of the cave.

My limbs are still numb. Do you want me to fight right away?

People from Yihua Palace are really unfair to me.

Fine.

You'll have a two-hour break.

Xiaoyu'er!

What happened to Xiaoyu'er?

Did he...

He is fine.

The duel will begin in two hours.

I lied to you.

Will you blame me?

At first, I didn't get the reason you lied to me.

After seeing how you stayed by his side, I finally got it.

You worry that I might snatch Xiaoyu'er from you.

You don't have to feel sorry about that.

When it comes to relationships,

everyone is selfish.

I would rather you be mad at me.

I'll feel better that way.

Why should I be mad at you?

You are not at fault.

Perhaps he has never loved me.

In comparison, he cares more about you.

How about you?

Do you keep Xiaoyu'er in mind?

Between the two of them, who do you care more about?

Who do you want the winner to be?

Who do I want the winner to be?

Does that matter to you?

Of course.

If you choose Xiaoyu'er, we'll become love rivals.

If you choose Hua Wuque,

we'll become enemies.

Actually...

Actually, I don't want to make a choice.

They are forced to have this duel.

No matter who wins, that person will never be happy.

No matter who loses,

the survivor will have to suffer for the rest of his life.

I thought you have feelings for both of them.

Now it seems that I'm the narrow-minded one.

Then, do you still see me as your enemy now?

If you don't mind,

I would like to be your friend.

Xiaoyu'er.

Time's up.

Don't procrastinate anymore.

Hey.

Tie Xinlan?

Why are you here?

You're going to duel with Hua Wuque.

Of course I have to be here.

Long time no see.

I didn't expect we would meet again when we're going to be parted by death.

I have been praying for this day to never come,

but it's still here after all.

I'm sorry.

I can only stand by and watch you both fight.

I can't help it even for a little bit.

It's fine.

Stop talking rubbish.

Isn't it great that we get to see each other before the duel?

Xiaoyu'er.

Don't you have anything to tell me?

You...

Get married to a good man as soon as possible.

Don't wait until you're old like the two old monsters.

No one will marry you then.

Don't worry.

I can still find someone else to marry me even if you're dead.

Have a smile.

You look so much prettier when you smile.

Xiaoyu'er.

Time's up.

Don't procrastinate anymore.

Xiaoyu'er.

I'm going.

-Xiaoyu'er! -Xiaoyu'er!

Xiaoyu'er!

-Xiaoyu'er! -Xiaoyu'er!

-Xiaoyu'er! -Xiaoyu'er!

He is just playing tricks. Don't believe him.

Wuque, force him up to fight with you.

He is unable to fight back.

How can I take advantage of him?

He is clearly just pretending.

Are you going to let him get away with it whenever he plays possum?

He is not pretending.

He was tricked into taking poison.

Hua Wuque.

Hurry up.

Do it now.

I won't blame you.

Because the one who actually kills me is not you.

What do you mean?

The one who kills me

is Jiang Yulang.

What poison is that?

Jade Crimson Bane.

I'm not lying, right?

Aunt Yaoyue.

Why don't we get rid of his poison first?

Fine.

I'll cure you of that poison first

and watch both of you fight later.

We'll see what else you can say.

So you were buying time for the poison to come into effect.

I just don't want to die for no reason.

Do you know where Jiang Yulang is at the moment?

He is in Wei Wuya's rat hole.

"Wei Wuya"?

What is it?

You don't have the guts to go there?

There is no place

that I dare not go to.

Why are there so many rats?

Father wouldn't let the rats run around for no reason.

Unless

something has happened in Wuya Palace.
