She and I reached an agreement.

When Laughing at the World is ready,

I'll go back to drink with her.

It seems you and I are alike.

We both have someone we love.

What do you plan to do

when this is over?

Why don't you go back to Guazhou Town with me

and be neighbors

with me and your sister-in-law?

They'll run a clinic together.

We'll farm

and fish together.

It's indeed an idyllic life.

But I don't know

if it's the life she wants.

She has a cold disease.

She can't go too far.

I'm afraid her body can't take it.

Then you...

I will return to the Apothecary Valley

and stay by her side.

I hope

on every year's Mid-Autumn Festival,

I can go to the market

and enjoy fireworks with her.

I hope I can witness

every blossom of the epiphyllum with her.

Every time it snows,

the sun goes down, and the moon rises,

I hope I can be with her,

waiting for the moon,

listening to the sound of snow,

and drinking Laughing at the World

under the plum tree.

That day will come.

It will.

All right.

Have a drink with me

or go back to rest early.

Okay.

I'll go back to sleep.

Remember to bury a pot of Laughing at the World

under the plum tree.

Let's drink together when I'm back.

I'll surely beat you.

Wait for me.

Huo Zhanbai.

Sorry.

I can't keep my promise.

Ziye.

Actually, I think of you

all the time.

Huo Zhanbai.

I miss you so much.

Chief Xue.

Chief Xue.

Doctrine Leader ordered me

to invite you to his chamber.

Everything is ready.

Let's go.

No offense.

I need to check all the herbs

and tools.

You want to check my medicine box?

I'm just worried

you still have

something like

Tenacious Needles.

Before you arrive

at his bedside,

I need to ensure nothing will go wrong.

What if I refuse?

Then I'm sorry.

I can't believe you.

If I really want

to poison him,

I would use something like the Soul Devouring Powder.

Since you don't believe me,

please send me back

to the Apothecary Valley immediately.

Chief Xue,

please.

Doctrine Leader.

Miao Kong,

guard the door later.

If anything happens,

come in immediately.

Yes, Doctrine Leader.

You,

stay here.

Yes.

Go.

Chief Xue,

Doctrine Leader has been waiting for you.

Chief Xue.

Okay.

Doctrine Leader.

Chief Xue,

you're finally here.

Let me check your pulse first.

Come on.

How is it?

Your illness

stems from improper practice of cold-natured internal skills,

resulting in a disturbance of your inner balance.

It's been a month and 17 days.

Your internal Chi is out of control and leaking.

Your Triple Burner meridians are in disarray,

and every acupuncture point is swollen.

Every midnight, it feels

as if thousands of needles are piercing you,

causing unbearable pain.

Am I right?

You're indeed a miracle-working doctor.

Since the onset of your illness,

you must have tried

various treatments.

But sadly, none of them was effective,

and your condition has deteriorated.

Tell me.

How long will it take to cure me?

You should ask

whether you can be cured first.

Is that necessary?

You're a miracle-working doctor from the Apothecary Valley.

If you can't cure me,

I guess my death is fated.

Yeah.

You have mastered

your mental technique very well.

In this world,

there should be

no other method that can harm you.

If it weren't for the disturbance of your inner balance,

I guess

there truly is nothing

that could pose a threat to you.

Stop beating around the bush!

Tell me!

Can you cure me or not?

I...

I can.

Okay.

I knew it.

You won't let me down.

The Apothecary Valley's medical expertise is top-notch.

I won't be disappointed.

Chief Xue,

let's continue.

Then I'll use golden needles to restore the acupuncture points

based on the Apothecary Valley's secret book

to smooth the meridians all over your body.

Doctrine Leader, please keep your promise.

After you recover,

let me out of here.

Chief Xue, don't worry.

I'll keep my promise.

Okay.

This is the Zijin Meridian Powder,

which can smooth meridians.

Please take it immediately.

It will take effect

in 15 minutes.

Then I can use golden needles on you.

Feng.

This is Benzoin,

known for its soothing and analgesic effects.

Please burn it in the incense burner now.

Doctrine Leader, please turn around.

Let's get started.

Please relax your meridians.

You have to stop your inner breath.

Scary?

It's not that easy

to obtain this position.

Chief Xue,

let's begin.

Doctrine Leader is receiving treatment inside.

Don't

disturb him.

Everyone, leave.

Leave.

-Yes. -Yes.

Lastly, the acupuncture points on your spine

have been smoothed.

All the golden needles are ready.

Almost done.

Almost done.

Only one step left.

Done.

So soon?

Jerk!

This is for

the villagers

of the Mo Family Village killed by you!

Feng,

you also...

Doctrine Leader, please don't kill her.

Do you want her to kill me?

No.

Chief Xue, you…

Sorry.

You...

Jerk,

I advise you not to use your Chi.

Or you'll die sooner.

So you've conspired with each other.

Yes!

Go to hell!

It's really not easy

to kill you.

Xue Ziye is responsible

for sealing your meridians.

I'm responsible for finding a chance

to kill you.

I wanted

to capture Miao Feng when he was

about to save you.

But the person he wanted to save

was not you.

You deserve it.

The children you raised with your own hands

will betray you sooner or later.

You want him to save you?

He can't save you.

You're like a devil.

You should have died long ago!

It takes the poison of the Dragon Blood Pearl

to kill you!

Why?

You're asking me why?

You're asking me why?

What, Doctrine Leader?

Have you killed so many people in this life

that you can't remember clearly?

21 years ago,

Sang State was destroyed overnight

near Luopu.

Have you forgotten?

You are not from Yuzhou.

I'm from Sang State.

You are...

Princess Shan Mi.

Now you remember.

My father was defeated by Yuzhou that year.

The people of Sang State

had to abandon the city and escape.

You took money from Yuzhou Lord.

You sent assassins, who disguised as bandits,

to exterminate my clan.

I escaped alone

and became a slave in a foreign land.

But when I was 15,

you bought me.

It's fate, isn't it?

Even God wants me to kill you!

For this moment,

I've put up with you for so many years

and I've suffered so much

hardship and torment!

Old jerk!

Today,

I'm going to avenge

the people of Sang State!

Remember,

the last thing you see before you die

is the smiling face of a Sang State's citizen.

I should have... killed you.

You no longer have a chance.

Old jerk.

Sister.

Envoy Miao Feng,

since Doctrine Leader is dead,

you don't need

to stay alive either, right?

Miao Shui!

Miao Shui!

You promised me

you wouldn't kill him.

Miao Shui.

Chief Xue,

I admire your courage.

But your stupidity

makes me want to laugh!

You don't know martial arts.

What do you have to make an agreement with me?

An agreement is upheld

through power.

Otherwise, it would just be empty talk.

Understand?

You...

And I really don't understand.

You already know

Miao Feng was the reason

why you fell into the icy river back then, right?

Why do you want to save him?

He's just...

a sword

used by someone.

Just like you and Mingjie.

The target

of the sword

is decided

by the one holding the sword.

Fine.

I admire you.

But even though you don't want to kill him,

I will take his life.

No.

-Stop! -Envoy Miao Feng.

Don't blame me for killing you.

If I let you live,

I won't have a way out.

At this point,

it would be great if we can end everything

like this.

What exactly is on your mind?

After I die,

can you let Chief Xue go?

She's not a threat to you.

If you need a doctor

in the future...

I really don't understand you two.

You're going to die,

but you're still defending each other.

Feng,

how come I never knew

besides Doctrine Leader,

there is another person

in this world

you care about so much?

Please let her go.

I'll be grateful.

It depends...

on my mood.

Ya Mi!

What did you call him?

What did you call him?

Ya Mi.

That's his real name.

Miao Feng?

Impossible.

Impossible.

You're not Ya Mi.

How could you be Ya Mi?

Impossible.

My brother is very timid.

He...

He can't even hold a sword well.

He's so timid.

How could he become

a killer like you?

You're not him.

You're not him.

I accepted the enemy as my father

and helped him do bad things.

Sister, I ignored

your suffering.

At this point,

why bother to reunite?

Yes.

Ya Mi did die a long time ago.

I lied to you.

Watch out!

Sister, watch out!

Ya Mi!

Ya Mi!

Ya Mi!

Ya Mi!

Ya Mi! Ya Mi!

My brother.

I didn't recognize you earlier.

Ya Mi!

Don't move.

Let me see.

It's been more than 20 years.

I raised you and taught you.

In the end,

you both want me to die,

right?

Fine.

Kids,

die with me!

Miao Shui.

Miao Shui!

Sister!

You...

Ya Mi.

Ya Mi!

No.

Chief Xue.

Ya Mi.

Don't...

Don't do anything stupid.

Ya Mi.

Just now,

you and your sister refused to reunite

because you were thinking for each other.

Now she's gone.

Maybe to her,

it's a way to break free.

You...

You should stay alive.

I want to go down there

to collect her body.

Leave here first.

Come back to collect her body

when the time is right.

What your sister wanted the most

is that you

can leave here safely.

You already know

I was the one who made you

and Xuehuai fall into the icy river back then.

Why did you save me?

I spent a lot of time

thinking about it.

If you really wanted

to kill that carter,

you wouldn't have given him

an ingot of silver.

You just knocked him out.

Right?

Chief Xue.

The Soul Devouring Powder?

You transferred the Soul Devouring Powder

from Eye to yourself!

You've always been aware of Eye's identity?

He's my brother.

You were Chang Wujue's pawn,

just like Mingjie.

The one who should be blamed

is the player.

I told you I would protect you.

But I...

But…

Chief Xue!

I've regained

all my power?

Chief Xue.

The Apothecary Valley.

The Apothecary Valley.

The Apothecary Valley.

The Apothecary Valley.

I'm going to send you back now.

Bad news!

Doctrine Leader is dead!

Doctrine Leader is dead?

-Doctrine Leader is dead? -Doctrine Leader...

-Miao Feng! -Doctrine Leader...

Miao Kong.

Doctrine Leader is dead.

The palace will surely be in chaos.

You stay and take charge of the overall situation.

What about you?

I need to send Chief Xue back

to the Apothecary Valley now.

Get out of my way!

Let them go.

It's good that you want to leave.

It can save trouble for both of us.

Chief Xue.

Are you feeling better?

Don't worry.

We're about to arrive at Yueya Vale soon.

Hang in there.

We can arrive at the Apothecary Valley soon!

Miao Kong?

What are you doing here?

I'm here to make a deal with you.

There's nothing

to talk about between us.

Chang Wujue is dead.

How did he die?

Miao Feng, Miao Shui,

and Chief Xue

from the Apothecary Valley

killed him together.

Chief Xue?

Where is she?

She has left the palace safely.

Chang Wujue is dead.

I will help you become the Doctrine Leader.

What?

Are you not interested in being

the Doctrine Leader just because

you failed once?

What is your condition?

Help me get rid of the Seven Swords.

After it's done, we'll dominate the martial world together.

I want to be

Sword Sect's chief.

Sword Sect?

Who on earth are you?

I'm Envoy Miao Kong of the Yuan Yi Palace.

I'm also

the sixth disciple of Sword Sect.

You're the sixth disciple of Sword Sect,

Xu Chonghua?

I haven't heard

of this name for a long time.

Why should I trust you?

The Seven Swords of Sword Sect

are on their way here.

They will not let you go.

Collaborating with me

is your best choice now.

The Seven Swords?

Huo Zhanbai, right?

You hold a deep grudge against Huo Zhanbai.

You've always wanted to kill him, right?

But

his life

is mine.

Why do you want to kill him?

That is between me and him.

I can't tell you.

Anyway,

when the Seven Swords arrive here,

I need you to use your Eye Magic

to help me.

Okay.

Deal.

There is someone ahead!

I think it's Five Sages from the Yuan Yi Palace.

It's Envoy Miao Feng!

Stop him!

The Spring Breeze mental technique.

Be careful, everyone!

Be careful!
