The Saint Clan shall rise like the morning sun!

Come awake!

The Tri-Star Saint Clan!

Let us turn the Nine Heavens upside down!

Mo Tianji Mo family Middle Three Realms A cosmic upheaval…

Mo Tianji Mo family Middle Three Realms

This change of fortunes

will make or break several leading families.

When toughening ourselves in this journey,

we must try our best to eliminate the opponents

(Lianyun Mountain, the Lower Three Realms) and prevent the Mo family from declining.

Tie Butian Crown Prince of Tieyun

Eon Residence Tieyun of the Lower Three Realms

Alas, disarray is about to befall this world.

Tang Xinsheng Vice Director Your Highness,

Tang Xinsheng Vice Director what concerns you so?

Tang Xinsheng Vice Director

Look at this empyreal change.

There's no telling what it forebodes,

which worries me.

By the way, how's my father?

I've sent men to look for consummate physicians as you command.

Your Highness may rest assured

that His Majesty will recover.

Chancellor's Abode Zhao of the Lower Three Realms

Dong Wufa General of Zhao Your Excellency,

Dong Wufa General of Zhao look how dark the sky is getting.

Dong Wufa General of Zhao I think those in Tieyun are performing some kind of witchcraft.

Dong Wufa General of Zhao

Your Excellency.

A drastic weather change Diwu Qingrou Chancellor of Zhao

Diwu Qingrou Chancellor of Zhao and a cosmic reversal

Diwu Qingrou Chancellor of Zhao

Diwu Qingrou Chancellor of Zhao are way beyond those Tieyun people's capabilities.

Diwu Qingrou Chancellor of Zhao

Cheng Yunhe a counselor of Zhao Your Excellency

Cheng Yunhe a counselor of Zhao possesses superlative astrological skills.

Cheng Yunhe a counselor of Zhao Do you see anything in this?

Cheng Yunhe a counselor of Zhao The cosmos is fast-changing.

Cheng Yunhe a counselor of Zhao

Cheng Yunhe a counselor of Zhao We must not lose our cool.

Oh.

A message from an undercover agent.

The Tieyun monarch's illness has become incurable.

Chances are he'll die in days.

In a time like this…

We have fate on our side.

I think we should attack Tieyun immediately,

catching them flat-footed.

There's no hurry.

Some external Tieyun forces are yet to be eliminated.

And I've granted permission to Du Shiqing, a miracle-working physician,

to head to Tieyun.

Uh…

For what reason?

Your Excellency…

That decrepit and muddle-headed monarch is severely ill.

If his son Tie Butian assumes the throne,

I'll be faced with a grave threat.

Keeping Tie Shicheng alive

and Tieyun under the old reign

will benefit Zhao more.

Amazing. Your Excellency has amazing foresight.

Tie Butian, the crown prince of Tieyun,

is only 17,

but he is an excellent commander and statesman.

The Skypatcher Pavilion, under his leadership,

has become a new force of Tieyun.

I fear that his subordinates, to help him gain control over Tieyun sooner,

will try to stop the miracle-working physician.

Have some doughty men escort him. This matter brooks no failure.

As you command.

Zizhu Garden Tianwai Pavilion

This fish…

Why does it have no eyeball?

Master, Brother Yang.

Just now, when the sky darkened,

out of the ground actually came a fish.

Look at this fish.

It has no eyeball.

It's so weird.

My silly brother,

that is a Chi-Sucking Holyfish.

It's priceless.

Be careful not to kill it.

Pri…priceless?

Does…does it taste good?

Look at its brow.

That's a sigil of the Tri-Star Saint Clan.

Legend has it that a Chi-Sucking Holyfish, if kept in a room,

can draw mystic energy towards the room.

For martial artists,

it's a real treasure.

A precious thing like this never appears for no reason.

Can it be that…

it's attracted by my handsome face?

I'll keep it.

Perhaps someday,

it'll give birth to a whole lot of baby fish.

Where should I keep it?

Aw, where should I keep it?

There.

Yang,

it surprises me that you know so much about Chi-Sucking Holyfish.

Uh…

I just heard some rumors about them.

This is my first time seeing a living one.

The Tri-Star Saint Clan is very mysterious.

Does this have something to do with the quake an hour ago?

It seems the world is bound to descend into chaos.

Yang,

this matter brooks no delay.

You should depart tomorrow morning.

Chu Yang,

in your journey,

you'll be totally on your own,

and your chances of survival are slim.

You'll have to face whatever the future holds by yourself.

Master, you once said

that in this world,

everybody has someone they want to protect,

someone they care about,

and I'm making this journey

because I want to protect those I care about.

I promise

I will not fail you.

I shall earn the Tieyun crown prince's trust,

keep Tie Butian safe,

and make sure Tieyun stays a counterbalance to Zhao

so that Tianwai Pavilion will remain secure.

I've been carrying this sword for many years.

Keep it for self-defense.

Chu Yang,

I'm here.

Brother Yang,

yours is going to be a perilous journey.

Why don't you

bring this Chi-Sucking Holyfish with you?

You'll get to take in some mystic energy from time to time.

It's just this tank is a bit heavy.

This…

This is a summary of all the tricks I've learned during my recent practice.

When I'm away,

you must stay focused on your practice.

Don't you shame Zizhu Garden in the Intrasect Tournament.

Just you wait.

When you return,

I promise you'll be astounded by my prowess.

Chu Yang bids you adieu.

Zizhu Garden

Tieyun Highway

Martial Sister has reached Tieyun.

I've got to hurry.

Gao Weicheng Flamesaber Virtuoso Gee up!

Gao Weicheng Flamesaber Virtuoso

Gee up!

This doesn't concern you.

Out of the way!

Gao,

can we go faster?

Du Shiqing a consummate physician

Du Shiqing a consummate physician The patient is no ordinary person.

Du Shiqing a consummate physician Should anything go wrong,

Du Shiqing a consummate physician there might be another war,

Du Shiqing a consummate physician causing heavy casualties.

Mr. Du,

we're only 100-odd li from Tieyun.

We'll get there tomorrow.

Gee up!

That horse-drawn carriage is from Zhao.

The guard is no mean fighter.

He said the patient was no ordinary person.

Can it be that…

This is a good opportunity for me to enter Tieyun.

Gee up!

Gee up!

Gee up!

Gee up!

Whoa!

What's happening?

Shield Formation.

Keep Mr. Du safe.

Chief,

our prey is like sitting ducks.

Draw your weapons

and give them hell.

Fall to formation! Guard the carriage!

Aargh!

Flamesaber Virtuoso, Gao Weicheng?

You're rumored to have long quit the martial world.

It surprises me

you actually chose to be Du Shiqing's bodyguard and carriage driver.

Du Shiqing?

It's really him.

Your knowing my name

tells me you're not a nobody either.

Identify yourself.

That's the fire magic of the Tri-Star Saint Clan.

That clan has always been elusive.

Having such a martial master as his bodyguard

means Du Shiqing has a powerful backer.

You sneaky vipers.

If you think you're hard enough,

come out of hiding and duel with me!

I won't fight you in single combat.

Damn it!

I actually chanced on Du Shiqing.

I must keep him safe.

You're…

Continue the attack.

Go all out!

I'd like to find out how much longer that geezer will last.

This guy is a mere Martial Brawler,

but he has command of so many accomplished fighters.

To catch bandits, first catch the ringleader.

Who are you?

I'll take care of him.

You guys go and kill Du Shiqing.

Yes, sir.

I underestimated you.

The arrow's poisoned.

You vile creatures!

You will not harm Mr. Du,

not when I'm still alive.

He's dying.

Guys,

let's attack together!

Nobody move!

Drop your weapons,

or I'll show him no mercy.

Let him go!

Let him go?

If you were me,

would you do that?

Don't mind me! Attack!

The one you captured

is just a nonentity,

and yet you think you can threaten us with him.

Ridiculous.

Stop it!

A nonentity?

Then why do you look so nervous?

You cocky bastard!

Stop wasting time talking to him!

Just kill Du Shiqing already!

Guys,

if you go your own way,

I will not spare his life.

Do you wish to see your chief die a violent death?

We will let this go on one condition:

you go back

and never set foot in Tieyun again.

I promise we won't pursue you.

Also,

let go of our chief!

I will not let him go,

and we will go to Tieyun.

What makes you think you're in a position to bargain with us?

Your chief's life

and my sword.

Chief!

If you are in fear for his life,

you may follow our carriage.

Don't worry.

When we get to Tieyun,

I'll release this man.

I promise he'll be unharmed.

Stand down.

These crack troops of Tieyun turn out to be pretty loyal.

Officer,

sorry about this.

I…

I'm no officer.

I… I'm just a bandit.

These are clearly government-issued arrows used by the crack troops of Tieyun.

What…what's going on?

Jiujie Sword has the ability to assimilate anything.

It can absorb materials of the mortal world

and store them in its blade

so that you may forge new weapons with them when necessary.

That's called Refinement.

Refinement?

Forge new weapons?

Chu Yang, you're the wielder of Jiujie Sword.

How could you not know this ability of its?

Maybe it'll come in handy someday.

I should have it absorb things more often.

Yikes!

That's too much!

Gao, are you hurt?

I'm fine.

We owe this valiant young sir a debt of thanks for helping us out.

I'm Du Shiqing,

and this is Gao Weicheng.

Thank you for saving us, young sir.

Young sir?

You don't have to thank me, sir.

I just…

Sir!

Hurry.

Bring me my medicine kit.

You overreached.

Your powers are not strong enough,

and the fierce fighting renders your meridians restless,

which is why your body cannot withstand

the refined steal you just absorbed.

Alas.

I was so intent on Refinement

that I overlooked my powers.

Mm.

The treasure your parents left you kind of saved your life.

This Amethyst Chalcedony can also heal wounds?

Clear your mind,

stabilize your chi,

concentrate it on the impurities,

and filter out the filth in your meridians.

Eek? You've recovered, young sir.

I've been a physician for many years,

but I've never seen anything like this before.

You are so young.

What kind of martial art have you been practicing

that allows you to filter impurities in your body

and expel them through your mouth and nose?

Maybe it's because of the elixir my martial master gave me.

May I ask which sect you belong to?

Sirs,

allow me to pay my respects to you.

I…

I used to be a disciple of Tianwai Pavilion.

Tianwai Pavilion?

I violated the sect regulations

and got expelled.

I'm heading for Tieyun because I wish to seek help from an acquaintance.

I never thought I'd chance upon you here,

and you got attacked by thugs.

Sorry for my ineptitude.

I hope you can forgive me, sirs.

You're too modest, young sir.

Were it not for you,

we would've both been killed.

Mr. Du is right.

Sir, your chi is still unstable.

Since we're all heading for Tieyun,

and fate kindly had us meet here,

why don't you

join us in our journey?

We'll be able to watch each other's backs.

Okay.

Thank you for your kindness, sirs.

What about him?

Leave him to me.

I'll have a talk with him.
