Lu Tiangang.

They're waiting for you outside.

-Will you go?
-I will.

You're here for a duel.
Why bring along a woman?

I want her to witness how I'll defeat you

-and be crowned King of Swords.
-It's not too late to pull out.

You are doomed to lose.

That's up to your sword, not your words.

Young man, you don't understand.

As a swordsman, you should be ruthless
and free of emotions.

You can only focus on your enemy.

But as she is in your heart,

you're most likely to lose.

You can still retreat now.

Silence! Draw out your sword!

The duel begins.

-Can you get rid of your hat?
-No, unless you kill me.

The outcome is determined. Go now!

Chief Instructor Lu is indeed
the King of Swords.

Bury the young man with due respect.

Then, reward Lu Tiangang
with 500 taels of gold

and 200 rolls of silk.

Tomorrow we will have
a celebratory banquet.

Old man, what are you doing?

Didn't you see
the young man who just died?

I'm engraving his name.

He's already dead. Why bother?

He was a good swordsman.

But he would be soon forgotten.

Indeed, very soon.

I...

-I want him to be remembered.
-Is there no one who can defeat Lu?

Not up to now.

Maybe in the future.

I don't know whether I'll live
to see that day.

-I'm sure you will. I'll defeat him.
-You?

You'll have to train for
at least ten years.

Maybe even before you see his face,
you'll die.

Then I'll engrave

a name here.

It'll be your name.

I'll go today and see
what exactly he looks like.

PRINCE'S MANSION

Stand down.

Can't you see he's just a kid?

What do you want?

Your hat always covers your face.
You must be hiding something.

-I want to see what you look like.
-Remember this.

My hat won't be removed by mere hands.

But by a sword.

Maybe when you can face me with a sword,
you'll already be dead under my sword.

SHIQIAO VILLAGE

SHIQIAO VILLAGE - THE GU'S FAMILY

BAGUA HALL

Many swordsmen have died
in this Bagua Hall.

White-faced Zhao Qing,
Xiao Liu the Magnificent,

The Dynamic Duo, and the Green Swordsman.
They have all died here.

You're but a nobody.

Look at your shoes.

You have little experience
in the martial arts world.

So I guess you wouldn't know
who those swordsmen were.

Our doors are always open.

You have entered here today,
but returning now is not too late.

If I wanted to retrace my steps,

I wouldn't have come in the first place.

There are eight of us.
Who do you want to have a duel with?

You have no name or credentials.

What makes you worthy
of fighting my master?

My worth is my sword.

Had you drawn your sword sooner,
they would not have died for nothing.

Declare your name.

So you'll be remembered after your death.

A corpse contaminates the ground.

I will live and glorify my name.

Lu Tiangang.

He is closing in on you.

No, Your Highness.

He still has many hurdles to cross.

He has neither name nor credentials.

I think he's an uncommon swordsman.

No.

He also needs to be ruthless
and unhindered

to have a chance to succeed.

But this is difficult for young people.

He stormed the Bagua Hall

and killed Priest Long.

You should be more cautious.

I never pay attention to a nobody.

But if Your Highness is concerned,

I will deal with him seriously.

If I were you, I would sit still.

I have waited for you for a long time.

I've never expected that
you would attack me.

All is fair in love and war.

The same goes for swordplay.

This is the bathing pool for men,

but you dare to enter.

You do have some guts.

There are three kinds of people
in this world.

Men, women, and dead people.

You don't look like a man to me,
but rather a dead person.

-Do you want me to fight you barehanded?
-The first rule of swordsmanship.

Even the slightest movement
could be fatal.

You boast you can defeat me.
But don't you possess such skills?

It has been rumored

the Sword Lady from Luoyang
is highly skilled.

It's my pleasure to die by your sword.

Tell me your history, and I will
give you the chance to draw your sword.

You're merely one of many swordsmen
from Luoyang.

-You're not worthy to know it.
-Nonsense!

Looking at you now,

you don't look like a woman either.
But rather a dead person.

Who's there?

I didn't expect you to be able
to escape my three attacks.

But I will not let you off.

And who might you be?

I'm a tenant here

who happened to come and bathe.

I didn't expect you two would fight.

They tried to ambush me.

Excellent swordsmanship.

I crossed you just now.

I hope you'll forgive me.

Not at all. To venture forth in the world,
one has to be careful.

You're too kind. Let me toast you.

May I know your name, please?

I'm Zhao Yi.

Zhao, as in popular surname.
Yi, as in number one.

My name has been selected
to mean there is nothing I can't cure.

-So, you're a doctor?
-No.

I merely hold a humble position
at the Prince's mansion.

Well, you praised my swordsmanship.

This means that apart from
medical knowledge,

you are also an expert in swordplay.

You flatter me.

I know nothing about swordplay.

It's just that while practicing medicine,

I have encountered many famous swordsmen.

So I can talk my way through
like an expert.

Unfortunately,
I haven't even touched a sword.

Does this mean you know of Lu Tiangang?

Of course I do.

I have treated all who reside in
Prince's mansion at one time or another.

-You mean, even Lu Tiangang?
-Yes.

What's his ailment?

He always covers his face
and never allows anyone to see him.

That's a kind of sickness.

That's a mental sickness
that cannot be completely cured.

Young man.

You seem to be
very interested in Lu Tiangang.

Would you be the swordsman
with no name or credentials

that stormed the Bagua Hall
and slaughtered Priest Long?

You left out the Luoyang Sword Lady.

Oh, I should have known it were you.

In your awkward situation,
she had ambushed you.

That conduct is so unbecoming.

-All is fair in swordplay.
-Lu Tiangang

said something like that once.

What did he say?

I remember it distinctly. He said...

"Cold steel knows no mercy."

-That's what he said?
-Exactly.

A swordsman must be
amoral, ruthless, and carefree.

Or he would fail.

It has been rumored
you wish to challenge Lu Tiangang

and be crowned King of Swords.

For a swordsman, such a title
is an honorable lifelong pursuit.

Certainly.

Young men ought to have such aspirations.

Swordsmen like you
are similar to people like us.

There are many things that we're after.

But the reality is that
there's a price for everything.

You don't mind me saying this, do you?

It's quite late.

Old sir, you should rest.

I have some matters to attend to.
After you.

Farewell.

You're so kind.

You allowed me to finish with my drink
and guest before confronting me.

You nameless upstart.

How dare you cause a stir
and want to become King of Swords?

Is there no due respect
for the eight of us?

You're wrong.
There are only seven of you left.

As he is dead.

I don't want to wipe out you people.

I'll leave you two

to cheer things up a bit.

Get lost!

-BOSS.
-BOSS.

Don't touch him.

He is not dead yet. Here, let me help him.

He is wounded.

Take him back and treat him
with the 13-mix herbal medicine.

Boil all the ingredients together.

Then take two more doses of Zijin pill.

-If there are any problems, let me know.
-Okay.

It's just a trivial effort.
It's nothing worth mentioning.

I would be happy if I could save
a dying man with a needle.

But I'd like to know this.

When you kill a living person
with a sword,

does that make you equally happy?

Only when I get the King of Swords title

would I be truly happy.

PRINCE'S MANSION

Your Highness.

Someone at the door
is demanding a duel with Lu Tiangang.

What's his name?

Nameless, sort of.

There has never been a swordsman
who could enter with such ease.

Dare him to storm the gates
with his prowess.

Is that so?

Wait!

Those hiding behind the door, come out!

Your sword is long but flaccid.

Do you think you could win with that?

That's enough.

Stop!

-Come here, young man.
-Yes.

The Nameless
with no credentials or affinity

pays respects to Your Highness.

How can I get your name and history?

When I have defeated Lu Tiangang.

You will remain nameless
even in my presence?

-I beg Your Highness's forgiveness.
-You're a man of principles!

Rise.

Unfortunately, Lu is out visiting friends
and is not here.

I can wait for his return.

All right!

On his return, you two can arrange a duel.

We'll see who emerges
as the King of Swords.

Much obliged, Your Highness.

Announce to the household
to entertain the Nameless Swordsman.

You've been following me, right?

Was it you just now?

Were you behind all that?

-What are you doing here?
-His Highness has ordered me

to entertain you properly.

First thing tomorrow morning,
Zhao Yi will accompany you.

What has happened here?

It's nothing, really.

Really?

Yes, nothing.

DAWEI JEWELRY STORE

When can we visit your place?

I bet you have many children
and grandchildren.

I'm quite embarrassed, actually.

I'm already at this age.

Apart from a pack of needles,
I have no possessions,

not to mention a home.

And I definitely have no family.

Really?

I should have a family like everyone else.

But I don't.

I'll tell you all a funny story today.

It's about a monkey climbing a pole
and a guard changing.

There was this merchant. He was very rich.

He married a beautiful young bride.

But as he was a merchant,

he had to travel a few times a year.

On this particular day,
he was traveling again.

But he was worried about his young wife
being alone at home.

So he thought of an idea.

He painted a guard on her private part.

His wife was worried about him too.

And so she drew a monkey
on his private part.

After that, the old merchant
went off on his trip.

But with time, his sexual urge increases.

Such a man needs a woman.

That old merchant forgot everything
about the drawing when he was having sex.

After the sex, lo and behold!

What had happened?
Only the monkey's bottom remained.

The old merchant then thought of an idea
and drew a monkey on himself.

This way, he could answer to his wife.

On the other hand, that young wife of his

was tormented by sexual desire.

After flirting around,
she hit on her cousin.

And after sexual intercourse...

Oh, no! What happened?

The guard was gone.

Now what?

She also had an idea
to redraw the guard herself.

Soon after, the old merchant
returned home,

and the two missed each other so badly
that they hopped into bed.

But the wife screamed.

"Oh no, something is wrong."

"The monkey should be on the underside.
How come it has climbed to the topside?"

The old merchant said,
"The monkey knows how to climb a pole."

"And after climbing,
he has gone to the topside."

Having said that, he also screamed.

"Something's wrong.
The guard should be on the left."

"Why is it now on the right?"

The young wife said, "Are you dumb?"

"This is the guard post."

"Naturally, he patrols back and forth."

"And such, he has changed sides."

He is blind and cannot see.

Yet he is fast.

If it were you, wouldn't you
have done the same?

Haven't I told you before

what will make me truly happy?

Come on, sir.

Come on.

People like you and I rarely
leave our worries and enjoy ourselves.

I'll bring you to a place

that will make you forget everything.

-Oh really?
-Sirs, please come here.

These are Mei yuan's Four Sisters.

They seldom entertain clients.

Don't you like any one of them?

Frolicking with prostitutes
requires the right mood.

But I have something else on my mind.

Additionally, for swordsmen like us

to be promiscuous like you,
our health would be affected.

That's an unfounded theory.

We doctors rely on the balance
of Ying and Yang.

Nonsense!

You are in danger of
being possessed by a demon.

Mr. Zhao.

I haven't had the pleasure
of knowing his name.

Him? He is called Nameless.

So he was born from a rock.

I've never heard of anyone
called Nameless.

Come on, friend. Leave your sword aside.

Let's listen to music, drink,
and be merry.

-It is a joy.
-He's right.

-Is it?
-Truly.

Xiao Cui and Xiao Fen,
come and entertain our guests.

Coming.

Entertain this gentleman well.

-Come on.
-Entertain him well.

Come inside, please.

I admire your swordsmanship a lot.

And regarding women, even at my age,

I have to see how I measure up.

Nonsense. Come on now.

-Here, let me toast to you.
-No thanks.

Drink up.

I can't drink.

-No, that's enough.
-Come on.

Why aren't you drinking?

Old sir, come quickly.

FUSHOU COFFIN SHOP

TONGJUDE RESTAURANT

Old sir.

-What is it?
-Old sir.

Come, move it. Let's go.

-What's the matter?
-Follow me.

-Where are my pants?
-They're here.

You little jerks!
Trying to steal my thing, huh?

-Don't you come again!
-Little brother, please wait.

From this alley to the East Gate,
it's mostly populated by prostitutes.

The world has degenerated.

How dare you steal at such a young age?

-I'll tear you to pieces.
-Where do you want to go?

Qiaoyun Silk Store.

QIAOYUN SILK STORE

That's a place for ladies.

You are a swordsman.
What would you want at such a place?

I don't know either.
Come. Let's take a look.

Little buster, get lost now!

Despite my age, my eyes are keen.

Granny, why are you scolding people again?

Who has got to you this time?

Thank you.

DUOBAO ANTIQUE STORE

-Thank you?
-What sort of a world is this?

Holding a lady's hand in broad daylight.

I'll not be a woman in my next life.

I don't want to be touched by you men.

You bunch of little scumbags!
Stealing from me again, huh?

She is notorious.

Apart from having meals,
she scolds people in her sleep.

Don't bother with her.

Only a beggar and a prostitute
would come here.

DUOBAO ANTIQUE STORE

Mr. Yan.

Why haven't you gone to
Miss He's to buy a belt?

QIAOYUN SILK STORE

You little punk.

How many belts do you wish to buy?
You can't use them as toilet paper.

WhV buy so many?

-Mr. Yan, what would you like to buy?
-What nonsense!

-Miss He, I've come to see you.
-Well, I'm just ordinary.

What's there to look at?

DUOBAO ANTIQUE STORE

Her name is He Lian.

She's the little beauty of our town.

That young man always accosts her.

But he can't even hold her hand.

Old sir, I want to ask you something.

Can someone be raised from the dead?

Dead is dead.

There is no reason for resurrection.

You asked me this.

Does it mean you have seen
the dead resurrected?

I'd sure like to see that.

-But I'm afraid there is no such thing.
-Sorry. Someone has booked this place.

-I'm truly sorry.
-No worries.

Sorry.

-My apologies.
-Don't worry.

I'm sorry, sirs.

The Eight Swordsmen are meeting
in our restaurant.

They have booked the whole place.

Please leave.

I'm truly sorry.

Old sir.

You mean that...

To fully enjoy drinking,
one must disregard everything else.

Come on, let's drink.

This way, please.

-This way, please.
-Please take a seat.

-Please come inside and take a seat.
-All right.

-Have a seat.
-Come on, take a seat.

-Haven't the two hunchbacks returned?
-Here we are with your wine.

-This is good wine, don't waste it.
-Come on!

Here comes the food.

Sirs, I'm Nameless.

We don't mind your party.

I'm Zhao Yi.

If anyone has any ailments,
I can cure them.

Drink up.

What a good doctor.

Let's see how you can cure us.

Your disease lies in
your muscles and bones.

It can't be cured instantly.

If the nerve is damaged,

it could mean being crippled.

You...

Don't try to bully an old man like him.

You're both hunchbacks.

I'll cure you in the blink of an eye.

You can try if you don't believe it.

We'll see how you cure us.

Get him!

What's going on?

Are you finished?

You've opened my eyes again.

You flatter me.
It's just some little tricks.

What were you doing
at Qiaoyun Silk Store just now?

I do not have to disclose that to you.

-You should know He Lian is mine.
-Yours?

You should tell her that

or put up notices around town to say

she is yours.

Are you interested in her?

A gentleman doesn't take from others.

You were away all night last night.

Was it because of her?

Could it be that
you really fell in love with her?

She wouldn't fall for you.

She wouldn't fall for someone
with a sword.

You little jerk.

How dare you rob in broad daylight?

What's the world coming to?

You little jerks!

If you dare to get angrier,
I'll gobble you up.

You little rascals!

Mr. Yan.

Miss He.

What? Are you here to buy a belt again?

You've bought all our belts.

Why are you so indifferent
all of a sudden?

You pay me money,
and I give you the goods.

When had I promised more?

What's with that fellow?

He's peculiar.

Since last night,

he hasn't had anything to eat or drink.

And he hasn't gone to the toilet.

You rascal!

Excellent skill!

You may pass for an expert
with a theatre troupe.

-Do you still want to cross swords?
-Don't push me too far!

Rarely does one admit being beaten.

This way, one can learn wisely

and seize new opportunities.

If you still don't want to submit,

I can give you another chance.

Had enough?

Listen! He Lian is not yours.

I've followed her one full day and night.

So I'm taking her with me.

This should wake you up.

Mr. Yan.

I have only talked with you once.

-And you want to take me away?
-Yes, I'll take you away right now.

When I first saw you,

I already gave my whole heart to you.

Why did you force yourself on me?

Perhaps I'm used to it.

Used to violence?

No.

I'm used to depending on my sword.

You've got what you wanted.

You aren't serious, are you?

Why don't you draw your sword?

A gentleman will die for a bosom friend.

I'm not sure if Miss He knows
how you feel right now.

Get lost!

I don't want to see you again.

She must be very pretty.

-Otherwise, you wouldn't be this serious.
-Thank you, Your Highness.

I've been standing outside,

waiting for Yan to draw his sword.

When the time comes, I'll surely help him.

It matters little whether he can win.

Well, your courage is commendable.

Unfortunately, Yan lacks such prowess.

Announce this.

Henceforth, no such swordsmen
shall reside here.

Yes!

Come with me.
I have something to talk to you about.

I've seen many swordsmen.

You're number one for being daring.

Your Highness, you're too kind.

Actually, daringness may not
always be good.

The fact that I can talk
to Your Highness here

is attributed to my swordsmanship.

That makes sense.

With your swordsmanship,

I can make you
the assistant chief instructor.

Are you interested?

The annual pay is
one thousand loads of rice.

But it's two thousand loads of rice
for a chief instructor.

From what you're saying,
you must fight with Lu Tiangang?

That's what I've been
waiting for all my life.

Well said.

Well said.

I admire you a lot.

So I should advise you this.

It may be coincidental.

Still, I must tell you.

The previous guest who lived here
was a young swordsman like you.

Was he also nameless?

That's not the key point.

The point is he also sought a duel
with Lu Tiangang.

And Lu Tiangang was not here?

He was, and the two fought at night.

That young swordsman

eventually died from Lu Tiangang's sword.

I don't understand
Your Highness's intention.

When that swordsman came,

he was accompanied by a woman.

No one knew whether she was
that swordsman's wife.

When the swordsman fell
at Lu Tiangang's feet,

she...

committed suicide.

I don't mind you bringing
a woman in here. However,

your situation is too similar
to that young swordsman.

Regardless of whether
I'm like that young swordsman,

I will have He Lian stay here

in that same room.

Though I'll similarly
challenge Lu Tiangang,

I'll not be killed by him.

But this is not determined by your words.

But by your sword.

QIAOYUN SILK STORE

He Lian hasn't returned.

She will.

She was born here.

So was her father.

So was her grandfather.

This is her home.

Why wouldn't she return?

She is really not returning.

Go back to the village.

I was the one who brought her up.

And she's gone just like that.

She's only seen you twice

before she has fallen in love
with you who's poor.

Even over the mountain,

I can smell your poverty.

You should treat her well.

She's a good girl.

QIAOYUN SILK STORE

-Are you trying to block my way?
-I want to take your life too.

Do you know who I am?

I'm nameless.

Neither do I want to know who you are.

Why don't you draw your sword?

A sharp sword, indeed.

What a pity. It's somewhat flaccid.

The leaves will fall off when they wither.

You should understand this.

WENHUA STORE

GAMBLING HOUSE

FUSHOU COFFIN SHOP

You have two choices.

One is to lie down like a corpse.

As for the other one,

you know better than I do.

Can you let it leave you for a moment?

Since the Sword Lady ambushed me,

I must hold on to my sword
every time I bathe.

I really don't understand.

How many men can live like you?

I live by my sword.

Then is your sword more important than me?

You're closest to me.

Yet I don't even know your name.

Someday, I will let the whole world
know my name.

At that time,
I should be the first to know.

Now I'll tell you one thing
that I haven't told anyone.

Really?

Did the woman who looked like me
really kill herself?

Yes.

For that young swordsman,

she committed suicide.

Is it true only ruthless people
are fit to be the best swordsmen?

Maybe so.

I got it now.

The girl who killed herself
always appears before your eyes

because you've always feared

that someone might enter your heart.

You also fear that you would end up
like that young swordsman.

No, I wouldn't. Definitely not.

I only need to have a sword in my hand.

What I want, I'll surely get.

Nobody can stop me.

Just as someone wants to ambush me
and take you away from me now.

Come out, all of you!

I've let you go twice.

This time, I'll surely kill you.

You're not worthy to fight with me.

Don't kill him!

For my sake,

please spare his life again.

A cat has nine lives.

Are you a cat or a dog?

What would a swordsman in your spot think?

-Who are you?
-I'm the Lady of Three Moves.

As long as one lives, he can
seize opportunities sooner or later.

Do you want to take revenge?

If only I could kill him,

I'll do anything.

Good.

Follow me.

Chief Instructor.

Would you set your enemy free
for the sake of a girl?

I'm the chief instructor
and the King of Swords, Lu Tiangang.

So I will certainly not.

I've seen him kill my men
as if he were chopping down trees.

Can you defeat him?

He is doomed to lose.

-Your Highness.
-I heard

-you killed all the swordsmen here.
-No, two are left.

Yan Ruoyun is longer my swordsman.

I believe Lu Tiangang still counts.

-Has he returned?
-He just arrived.

-Why didn't you stop him?
-Because I desire to see

who ultimately is the King of Swords.

PRINCE'S MANSION

Old sir, you're so hasty.

You might get accidentally killed.

This is the moment I've been waiting for.

Why be in my way?

Young man.

There are some things in my heart
that I haven't had the chance to say.

And I almost lost the opportunity.

A slight discrepancy
makes a great difference.

What one pursues is not
the present moment.

Why?

You and Lu Tiangang's skills
are at the pinnacle.

I can't tell which is better.

In Li Tiangang's heart,
he only thought about his opponent.

But you have a bit more obstruction.

What is that?

He Lian.

When excellent swordsmen fight,

the deciding factor hangs by a hair.

A slight movement or sound

and even some distracting thoughts

will make one lose the duel.

If only you could
get rid of those obstacles.

Otherwise, you are considered a loser
even before you start.

He Lian is your hindrance.

You need to think seriously about that.

I'm really worried about you both.

He Lian!

He Lian!

He Lian.

Why have you returned alone?

You went to meet Lu Tiangang.

I'm afraid you will never come back.

I've been thinking about the girl
who killed herself.

I didn't want to stay there alone.

If I had to die, it should be at home.

Haven't I returned?

Have you killed Lu Tiangang?

No, I haven't seen him.

Don't challenge him to a duel anymore.

Stay here.

Treat this as your home.

I will do anything for you.

All you need to do
is watch the shop for me.

You don't have to do anything.

You don't even have to tell me your name.

Then I can use this sword
to chop firewood.

I know

it's the Prince's mansion you aspire for,
not a home.

You want the King of Swords title, not me.

Go.

I don't want to see you anymore.

I'm aware your sword is not for firewood.

Yes.

I can't use it for that purpose.

Neither can I pretend this is my home.

And I don't want to be like
that young swordsman!

Do you want to kill me?

You've taken me away for no reason.

And I followed you
without any apparent reason.

It's like a dream.

All seems so unreal.

Look! There're only you and me
in such a big house.

Don't tell me you'll stop at nothing
just to kill that rascal.

If only I could kill him,

I'll do anything.

I'll do anything for you.

Really?

Then, have a drink for my sake.

I've seen that rascal in the bath.

Your skin is fairer than his.

You haven't seen my bedroom.

Come!

I'm a man.

You're too much!

A man?

What a big man.

Didn't you say you'll do anything for me?

What? Are you regretting it?

Listen.

No opponent has escaped my fourth move.

Only I can kill that rascal.

If you want him dead,

you have to obey me.

Come with me.

He Lian is your hindrance.

What? You have to go?

Do you really have to go?

I understand that you will leave me
sooner or later.

-But will you leave just like this?
-I forgot to tell you one thing.

It's my name.

Of all people,

I want you to be the first to know.

Really? Tell me quickly.

So that's what you are called.

According to my nanny,
that's a favorite name among villagers.

If only I were the King of Swords,

a more common name would be uncommon.

You want to duel with Lu Tiangang.

I wouldn't deter you from that.

But I must tell you this.

I really like your name.

I'll wait for your return.

And I indeed believe you will.

Do you still remember that night

when you stood in the rain?

You were pouring the rain
out from your boots.

I was peeping at you from here.

Even now, my heart beats faster
when I think of that.

You can now focus on
fighting with Lu Tiangang.

But will you forget me?

Who is it?

-Me.
-Who are you?

I'm nameless.

You've come at last.

He Lian must have died.

I want to ask you this.

If you were crowned King of Swords,

would you really be happy?

Would you regret one day

that what you lose is actually
more valuable than what you gained?

Just like me.

I've always prepared to kill

and prepared to be killed.

I got no friends or family.

I just want to tell you this.
I'm already here.

Without your hat,
you might not have been struck.

Without discarding the hat,
have I not pierced you?

-Zhao Yi?
-No, I'm Lu Tiangang.

So you're the King of Swords and the
chief instructor at the Prince's mansion.

Why you dare not disclose your real self?

It's a pity

that you have ruined it.

Maybe one day in the future,
you will find it useful.

The outcome is decided now.
You must be very happy.

You're still holding the sword
and standing before me.

How can the duel be ended?

I've long realized

the King of Swords
must relinquish his sword

and the price he must pay.

The reason you defeat me...

is because

I admire you somewhat.

Young man.

From now on, you're the King of Swords

and the chief instructor of my mansion.

You'll have two thousand loads of rice
as an annual wage.

No thanks.

You once said

when you're crowned as King of Swords,

you will tell me your name.

Now you can tell me.

NAMELESS

You don't want to be the King of Swords
or the chief instructor.

What do you want then?

This world is in a mess.

I really don't understand.
What do you people really want?

He Lian, I'm back.

I've returned to you.

No one has ever escaped my fourth move.
You are no exception.

Could someone as low-down as you
be the King of Swords?

Let me tell you.

He Lian should be mine when she was alive.

I won't let her be with you even in death.

He Lian.

I've learned my lesson.

I...

I'll never

leave you again.
