The girl said no to his love, but didn’t know he was the future emperor!💗

Stop talking nonsense. We were just practicing together. – Are you sure? – Are you sure? Yes, I like Hua Qian Gu. Yes, I like Hua Qian Gu. So what? It’s none of your business. Xuan Lang, how could you say that? Qing Shui. Qian Gu! – Qing Shui! – Hey. The good show begins now. That is interesting. Qing Shui! Qing Shui! – Don’t be mad at me. – Get lost. Go away! Qing Shui, please listen to me. – You have misunderstood. – I don’t want to listen! I don’t want to listen! They were talking nonsense. Don’t trust them. Xuan Lang admitted that he likes you in front of everyone. How do I ignore that fact? Xuan Lang… Qing Shui, I am sure that he was just sulking. That’s why he said that. He has always been treating me as his younger sister. When we practice together, he would scold me if I make a mistake. Really? Yes. All right, stop being mad at me. You will get wrinkles if you won’t stop being angry. What? Wrinkles? Do you think I am ugly? He doesn’t even throw me a glance. Don’t talk nonsense. You are quite good looking. Perhaps it is because both of you don’t really talk with each other. If you’re giving him a present again, you have to pass it to him yourself. In the long run, things will… You are right. Moving forward, I have to create more chance to see him. Yes. Qian Gu. You have to help me out. Of course, I will help you. Say it. I need a favor from you right now. Sure. Can you please stop practicing with him at night? Sure, I promise. Stop being mad at me. Look, you look pretty again right after you cool down. Your father did everything just to send you here. What for? Now, you confessed to a girl in public. That is ridiculous! Mount Chang Liu is a noble place. It is not a place for fun! Honored Lord. I did not do that for fun. I am serious about it. Furthermore, my father did not explicitly warn me… not to fall in love. There is also no rule in Chang Liu Sect… that the disciples are not allowed to get involved romantically. Romance will gravely affect cultivation. You have just joined the sect… and everything has yet to settle down. Now, you got distracted. You are letting your father down. You are disappointing your masters. If falling in love with Hua Qian Gu… means I can no longer cultivate, I would rather give up now. How dare you! Are you not going to admit your mistake? Honored Lord, I like Hua Qian Gu… and the feeling is mutual. Both of us are deeply in love. I wonder what is our mistake. You mean, Hua Qian Gu is in love with you too? That’s right. Qian Gu and I are in love with each other. I wish to get your blessing, My Venerable Lord. It seems that we are interfering with a love affair. Forget it, you may leave now. We shall have a discussion to decide on your punishment. Leave. He is making a fuss. It’s rare that someone has the guts to talk back to you. If Meng Xuan Xuan Lang doesn’t get eliminated… in the Immortal Sword Convention, I will take him as my disciple. You… No doubt Chang Liu Sect doesn’t explicitly prohibit romance, but one has to be emotionless to become an immortal. Furthermore, Meng Xuan Lang’s behavior… has caused a negative impact to others. Imagine if we let him get away with it… No, he has to be punished… to serve as a warning. Zi Hua. What say you? If they are in love with each other, we shouldn’t stop them. However, we should talk to Hua Qian Gu first before making any decision. Qian Gu. I thought you won’t come and meet me. Xuan Lang. Thank you for taking good care of me. Moving forward, I won’t be practicing with you anymore. But… Is it because… you don’t want others to gossip about us? No. I don’t care about others. It’s because… It’s because I don’t want to upset my friend. Which friend? You gave me a fragrance sachet, right? Xuan Lang, you have misunderstood. The fragrance sachet is not from me. Qing Shui told me to pass it to you. I asked Qing Shui… but she said that she has no idea. Is it because… that three obstinate old men gave you pressure? Let me knock some sense into them! Xuan Lang. You have indeed misunderstood. The present is given to you by Qing Shui, not me. Qing Shui is the one who has a crush on you, not me. I know that you have been treating me well. However, you have always been an older brother to me. If I have done something that makes you misunderstand, please forgive me. I am dead set on cultivation. I don’t wish to get involved in romance. Are you still holding on to Mo Bing? Don’t mention him. It has nothing to do with him. Qing Shui likes you. You should be concerned about her. I know well that… the person that I like… is Hua Qian Gu. It’s all right that you don’t like me. I will wait for you. I will be waiting for you… until one day soon, you finally can accept me. This piece of jade… No matter how you perceive me, it represents my love for you. It can protect you. I hope… you can keep it. Xuan Lang! Xuan Lang! My Venerable Lord. You don’t have to explain. Chang Liu Sect is not unreasonable. You may leave if you have a lover. I won’t stop you. My Venerable Lord, I am dead set on cultivation. If I were to have only one target, the target is to stay at Chang Liu Sect… and become your disciple. Just give up. Mount Shu Sect needs a leader. Furthermore, I won’t take you as my disciple. (Yong Chang Gate) Xuan Lang. – His Majesty is awake! – Father. You’re awake, Father. Quick… Summon Xuan Lang. Go quickly. – General Lie. – At your service. Summon Meng Xuan Lang to the capital with haste. Tell him… Tell him that Father wants to see him. As you command. Xuan Lang, where are you? Your Highness. – What are you panicking for? – Your Highness. His Majesty chose to summon Meng Xuan Lang to the palace now. I wonder why. Your Highness must be vigilant. In my opinion, why not… So what? I have complete control over the Kingdom of Shu. Meng Xuan Lang? Father has always doted on him. It is only right to let them meet. Do not panic. But in my opinion, it’s time to eliminate him once and for all. Stop talking. Just do what is within your duties. Xuan Lang, let’s practice our swordsmanship. All right. Why are there visitors from the Imperial Palace? Something is about to happen. – Greetings, Your Highness. – Greetings, Your Highness. Rise. – Yes! – Yes! Three Lords, my father is severely ill. I earnestly request permission to return to visit him. Of all the virtues, filial piety comes first. You may go. Thank you, My Vulnerable Lord. Zi Hua, what’s the matter? Meng Xuan Lang has an aura of red and black. That is a mixture of sorrow and joy. I don’t know if his return to the Kingdom of Shu… will be joyful or sorrowful. I’m afraid that his departure today is a permanent farewell… to Chang Liu Sect and the path of immortality. Shi Yi, quickly send a few disciples to escort him back… to the Imperial Palace. – Yes. – Wait. Chang Liu Sect shouldn’t interfere in mortal affairs, especially imperial power struggles. This might just be… a daunting experience without any mishap. What will happen in the future… is not something that we can interfere with either. I hope he can come through this calamity without a hitch. In my opinion, it might not be a calamity of death. It could be a happy occasion, right? Let’s go. – Xuan Lang! – Xuan Lang! Qian Gu? Lie Xing Yun, do not be rude. Qian Gu, did you come to see me off? Yes. Qing Shui wanted to send you off, so I brought her here. I… Xuan Lang, when will you come back? I’ll be back very soon. Qian Gu, are we still friends? Of course! We will be waiting for you to return. Yes. Don’t worry. I have to come back for the Immortal Sword Convention. Xuan Lang. You must take care of yourself. All right. I will. Don’t worry. I can’t believe that Meng Xuan Lang… is actually the second prince of the Kingdom of Shu. I finally understand… why he got into Chang Liu Sect without taking the exam. So he’s a prince. So what if he’s a prince? He can’t even survive 10 moves of my hand. Hey. Xuan Lang just didn’t want to bother with you. Would he be afraid of Peng Lai Island? What is so amazing about him? What are you all chatting about? Convene quickly! – Yes. – Yes! The Immortal Sword Convention is coming up. We will have a mock competition today… to evaluate your skills. The first pair of competitors will be… Qing Shui and Yin Shang Piao. Yes. Yes. The winner of this match is Qing Shui. Me? I won? I won! Qian Gu, did you see that? All it took was four moves… and I defeated Yin Shang Piao! If I keep this up, I can place in the top four of the Immortal Sword Convention! – Keep it up. – It’s amazing, right? The second match will be… Ni Man Tian versus Hua Qian Gu. Why would it be you against Ni Man Tian? Shouldn’t it be Shuo Feng against Ni Man Tian? That’s right. The winner of this match is Ni Man Tian. I actually had to use all my strength to beat her. It seems as if I cannot lower my guard… at the Immortal Sword Convention. Man Tian and Shuo Feng… are the strongest two out of our class of disciples. If I can’t even defeat Man Tian, I have no chance of beating Shuo Feng. Then I won’t be able to become His Venerable Lord’s apprentice! Qian Gu, it’s all right. You have already improved a lot. I would’ve definitely lost. The third match will be Huo Xi versus Wu Qing Luo. You two have to run 10 laps around Chang Liu Sect. Neither of you are getting meals today! Based on my analysis, if things continue the way they are now, you’ll have no problem placing in the top four. Qian Gu, I was originally worried… that you would be banished from Chang Liu Sect. You were just an ordinary girl when you first joined. Now, you are stronger than a lot of people! Qian Gu, what’s wrong? Why are you so preoccupied? Are you feeling unwell? No. The Immortal Sword Convention is coming up. I’m a bit worried. Worried? What are you worried about? You are already competent enough. Don’t worry. You won’t be kicked out of the sect. You’re not still thinking of winning the first place, right? Where do you think Xuan Lang has gone? If he doesn’t make it back in time… Qian Gu, given Xuan Lang’s identity, even if he doesn’t take part, he won’t be kicked out, right? Qian Gu, where are you going? I’m going to practice. Practice? Didn’t you just get back from practice? It’s already late! You’re so desperate. I’ll be happy as long as I’m not dead last. It’s time to sleep. Why are you here? I… Obviously, I came to see you. You came to see me? Have you been standing here for a long time? No. Let me be frank. The Immortal Sword Convention will begin soon. You are my only rival. State your terms. I want you to lose to me. Shuo Feng! His Highness is returning to the palace! Clear the way! Father. Where is Xuan Lang? – Father, rest assured. – Xuan Lang. I have sent people to Chang Liu Sect. I believe they are on their way this very moment. Summon Xuan Lang quickly. Father? – Go quickly. – Father! Summon Xuan Lang. Father! Father, I am here! I have been unfilial! I’m glad you are back. Xuan Cong, step outside for a bit. I need to speak to Xuan Lang in private. Father! Go. I’ll call you if I need you. Yes. – Yes. – Yes. Father suddenly wants to see him in private. I wonder what his intentions are. At this point, let’s just see how the situation plays out. If… We will have to do it. Xuan Lang. Father. Kneel. Father. – Kneel! – All right. Xuan Lang. I have reached my end. The only thing I am worried about is the Kingdom of Shu. Starting today, You are the king of Shu Please reconsider, Father. I cannot take up this heavy responsibility. – Your Highness! – Father, you cannot do this! Your Highness! Xuan Cong! You… Father, even now you must discriminate in favor of him. What have I done wrong that you must do this to me? – Xuan Cong! – Don’t call my name! Meng Xuan Lang, receive my decree. At your service! For Crown Prince Meng Xuan Cong’s lack of virtue, he is hereby deposed and replaced… by Meng Xuan Lang… who shall inherit the Kingdom of Shu. – Father! – Father! Father, you can’t do this. What have I done that you must do this? Lie Xing Yun. At your service. I… confer upon you today the title of Protector General. You are to assist Prince Meng Xuan Lang… in ascending the throne… and managing affairs of the state. As Your Majesty commands! Xuan Lang, this sword… has been handed down for generations in the Kingdom of Shu. I will now pass it on to you. I hope you can use it to defend the Kingdom of Shu. Father! Be a good emperor who is beloved… by his people. Father! Father. Father! Your Majesty! Father! Father! Father! The Emperor is dead. Father! Father? Tian Er! My daughter. Father, why didn’t you tell me that you were coming? I wanted to ambush you. I also wanted to see how you’re doing here. I’m doing great. That’s good. Tian Er, are you prepared… for the Immortal Sword Convention? It won’t be a problem. No problem? Sect leaders and immortal friends, welcome to Mount Chang Liu. I hope you have an enjoyable stay here at Chang Liu Sect. Of course, if our hospitality is lacking in any way, please do not seek me out. You can go to Luo Shi Yi. He will do his utmost to make sure you are happy. The Three Lords have arrived! Sect leaders and immortal friends, the annual Immortal Sword Convention will begin shortly. The Immortal Sword Convention is a gathering for immortal sects… to socialize and learn from each other. It is also a grand ceremony to nurture new talent… for the fight against demons. We, Chang Liu, extend a welcome to all the sect leaders… and elders here. Luo He Dong of Kun Lun Sect has arrived! Sect Leader Luo. You are always traveling the world… and never staying in one place for long. How did you have time to come to Chang Liu Sect today? I just came out of seclusion… and my apprentice insisted on coming to Chang Liu Sect… to join in on the fun. So I came by to see… whether all of you are still alive and well. You… Whoever comes are guests. Please. Please. Bone! I have to go. Do you know him? He is a friend of mine. Sect Leader! Yun Yin? Greetings, Sect Leader. Why are you here? Are you doing well at Chang Liu Sect? Yes, I’m doing great. Right. This is Mount Shu Sect’s Soul Recovery Pill. It is very effective on both internal and external injuries. It will definitely come in handy when you need it. Thank you. Sect Leader, don’t take too many risks during the competition. Just do what you can. Don’t worry. I know what I’m doing. The first match will be… Hua Qian Gu versus Yun Duan. The winner of the first match is Hua Qian Gu. The second match will be… Qing Shui versus Yin Shang Piao. This isn’t right. Clearly he is hiding his strength during Qing Shui’s match with him. The winner of this match is Ni Man Tian. This Immortal Sword Convention is very important to me. You can state any terms… as long as you lose to me. This competition is very important to me. Every sect will be in attendance. I have no other choice! I need to win! Then you will have to defeat me. Do you think I don’t want to? Even if train another five years, I won’t be a match for you! You are my biggest obstacle… to becoming His Venerable Lord’s apprentice! I won’t go easy on you. Qing Shui, at this point, just calmly face the facts. Given your current ranking, you’ll definitely get to stay at Chang Liu Sect. Isn’t that what you wanted? I know! But I just don’t understand why I lost. Yin Shang Piao is usually quite unremarkable. He lost to me in the last match. But now it was as if he is a completely different person. I still don’t understand how I lost to him. I also find it strange. How can someone improve that much in such a short amount of time? This goes to show… that he has been hiding his strength. Why is he hiding his strength? I can’t figure that out either. If you can’t figure it out, then why bother giving yourself such a hard time? Dongfang, what are you doing here? Bone, it has been so long. Compared to when you were at Mount Shu Sect, you have improved a lot. Of course. You’re confident you can be a top scholar. I can’t fall behind. Qing Shui, allow me to introduce him. This is Dongfang Yu Qing. Listen, Dongfang is incredible. He knows everything from astronomy to geography. He is also well-versed in divination… and Five Elements Technique. In my opinion, there is nothing that he doesn’t know. Do you have such a high opinion of me? Hello, Dongfang. I am Qing Shui, Qian Gu’s fellow disciple. Actually, I’ve heard about you. You’re just as I imagined. How did you imagine I looked? Wise, cultured, handsome, and carefree! You and Qian Gu are a great match. Well said! It’s just what I wanted to hear. Qing Shui! If you keep spouting nonsense, I’m going to tell Xuan Lang. I won’t bother the two of you. I’ll let you two talk. I’m going off to be mope. Listen, you have another match tomorrow morning. Go to bed early, all right? I will. When I think about tomorrow’s competition, my head hurts. Don’t worry. You performed very well today. I was watching from below. – As for Yin Shang Piao, – Really? the one who beat Qing Shui, there is more to him than meets the eye. He is definitely not a rookie disciple. If my guess is correct, he has at least 10 years of cultivation. His every word, every move, and attack style are most sinister. He has learned Chang Liu Sect’s immortal techniques, but he gives off a sinister aura. If you have to fight him, you must be careful. He has been hiding it for 10 years? Why would he do that? I don’t know the reason right now, but I’m sure the truth will be revealed tomorrow. Bone, you can just use the Sword of Forsaking. Why would you fear anyone? I can’t do that. Sword of Forsaking was given to me by His Venerable Lord. I don’t want others to see it… and think that he favors me. I want to rely on my own strength. Then don’t worry. Look, you are training hard day and night. You have become so proficient with Five Elements Technique. Just on this alone, nobody else can compare to you. However, I have to tell you… that Five Elements Technique consumes a lot of inner energy. If you want to win, I suggest that you save it for last. Don’t worry though. I will be there tomorrow. You will win for sure. I hope so. Why? Don’t you believe me? It will be easy to beat Yin Shang Piao. Do you have a smart idea? Come. Dongfang, tell me quickly. What idea have you come up with? Show me the sword techniques… that you have learned at Chang Liu Sect. Don’t tell me you want to use the sword technique… that I used to defeat Elder Qing Yang… on Yin Shang Piao. You are smart. If it can beat Elder Qing Yang, it can also beat Yin Shang Piao. No matter how powerful he is, he can’t be stronger than Qing Yang. Moreover, while competing at Chang Liu Sect, he cannot use other sword techniques. He will have to accept the defeat. You’re right. It’s an excellent idea. – Come on. Let’s go and practice. – All right. Guardian. What is the situation? I have successfully entered the top four. The remaining competitors are… Ni Man Tian, Shuo Feng, and Hua Qian Gu. Hua Qian Gu again? Hua Qian Gu and Ni Man Tian are nothing to be worried about. Shuo Feng is the hardest to measure. Although I have fought him a lot of times, I still cannot get a true measure of his strength. Shuo Feng is indeed a formidable opponent, but Hua Qian Gu is not to be underestimated either. Our Guardian, Shan Chun Qiu, lost to her at Mount Shu Sect. You must not underestimate her. Yes, I understand. This is a special poison needle. The poison has no color or smell. Even the prick wound cannot be detected. It is not fatal. It will merely cause a sudden decrease in inner energy. The effects fade after four hours. Even a miracle physician will be at a loss. If you can’t beat your opponent, you can use this. Thank you. Dongfang Yu Qing is a rare talent of great potential. Since fate allowed me to meet him, I decided to take him as my apprentice… to take up my mantle. Master. My Venerable Lord. It’s getting late. I have stayed too long. I should take my leave. Won’t you stay for some more tea before you leave? No. You must be fatigued from traveling. Get some rest soon. Why are the moves you’re practicing all in reverse? My Venerable Lord, when I previously fought against Elder Qing Yang at Mount Shu Sect, I was no match for him. However, Dongfang taught me to execute the swordplay in reverse. Sure enough, even Elder Qing Yang was caught unprepared. This time, on Dongfang’s suggestion, I want to do it again… and I hope to make a breakthrough. Dongfang Yu Qing actually came up with such moves. This is certainly no simple matter. If not for Dongfang during the battle at Mount Shu Sect, the entire Mount Shu Sect would likely no longer exist. Dongfang is like a brother to me. He teaches me just to help me. He has no malicious intent. Your sword moves are unconventional… and you have an unstable foundation. If you are not careful, you could easily fall into a state of obsession. The reversal of every move results in fierce offensive power… which could easily harm a fellow disciple. You can decide for yourself… whether you want to use it during tomorrow’s competition. Tian Er, you must bear in mind what I just said to you. All right, get some rest. Why are you here? I’m here to help you. Help me? Do I need your help? Aren’t you well aware that you need my help? If you want to defeat someone, just strike the opponent with this needle… at the critical moment. Victory will take no effort at all. You came up with such a despicable method. What are your motives? Actually… I have actually secretly admired you for a long time now. I know you wholeheartedly want to become… His Venerable Lord’s first apprentice, so I went out of my way to find this needle to help you. Do you think I will be like you… and use such despicable methods to win? I have shown you my intentions. Whether you use it or not is up to you. However, I still hope that you can win tomorrow. You… Let the competition begin. Today’s four competitors are… Hua Qian Gu, Shuo Feng, Yin Shang Piao, and Ni Man Tian. The first pair will be Shuo Feng versus Ni Man Tian. The winner of this match is Ni Man Tian. Is this really that important to you? That’s my daughter. This is the prowess of Peng Lai Island! Excellent! Zi Hua, she has a good aptitude. Good. He counters every move as they come and remains calm. Very good. Zi Hua. This match will surely be won by Yin Shang Piao. Why hasn’t Bone used the reversed sword technique? Mother! Tang Bao. I’m not as powerful as him, but I can’t use the reversed sword technique. It looks like I will have to take a risk. Mother! Mother! Bone, are you all right? I’m fine. I just need some rest. Even though you won this match, your inner energy was severely injured. I’m worried about your match tomorrow. It’s all right. I know what I can handle. Qian Gu, what’s wrong? She suffered severe internal injuries. What? What are you going to do? The final match is tomorrow. This won’t do. I have to talk to Venerable Lord. Bone, forget it. – Let her go. – Venerable Lord! Qian Gu is injured. Can you let her recover… before holding the final match between her and Ni Man Tian? The Immortal Sword Convention… has its rules. Tomorrow’s match will be held as scheduled. Qian Gu, Venerable Lord said tomorrow’s match… will be held as scheduled. Why don’t you forfeit? Even if you forfeit, you’ll still be in second place. That’s good enough. I won’t give up. Regardless of whether I can win tomorrow, I still have to try. You would lose your life. I know you’re worried about me. But… There are a lot of misunderstandings between me and Man Tian. After tomorrow’s match, I fear we’ll become strangers. Bone, don’t worry about it so much. Just do your best. Nothing is more important than your health. Yes, Mother Bone! Give up and don’t compete anymore. That fierce Ni Man Tian will definitely give you a hard time. I know you’re worried about me. However, this match is very important to me. I promise you that I will protect myself. But I must take part… in tomorrow’s match. Venerable Lord? – Venerable Lord. – Don’t get up. If you weren’t injured, you could probably manage to come out even with Ni Man Tian. Now that you’re injured, you will undoubtedly lose… tomorrow’s match. I will persist to the end… no matter what. You took too much risks in your match just now. Why didn’t you use the reversed sword technique? Because… Because you were right. In a match against a fellow disciple, caution should be taken. I don’t want to win by a fluke every time. I want to win by my own strength… and become your disciple. Venerable Lord, please help Qian Gu… so that she can have a fair competition with Ni Man Tian. No. If Venerable Lord heals me, that would be unfair. You should all go. I want to get some rest. All right. Rest well. – Bone. – Bone. Dongfang, you should go too. Get some rest. I’ll see you out. I will win first place tomorrow. Haven’t I already lost to you? Why are you here? I… I had no choice. My father is Peng Lai’s sect leader. Even though I’m his daughter, I chose to join Chang Liu Sect. My father is a prideful man. So… So I must win in the Immortal Sword Convention. Otherwise, my father will be thoroughly humiliated. So… you used poison needles on me. I’m sorry. I had no other choice. I have to win! I hope you’ll forgive me. If you don’t forgive me, you can stab me after tomorrow’s match is over… and get your revenge. Do you think everyone is like you? Don’t use the same trick tomorrow. Otherwise, I won’t guarantee that I’ll keep your secret. Another one who is protective toward Hua Qian Gu. Don’t worry. I won’t use this move again. Because against her, I don’t need it! Back in the day, the Five High Immortals… were magnificent in the battle against Seven Murder Factions. But now, only you and Zi Xun are the only ones left. It is a great shame. I heard one of our disciples… sing praises… about your disciple. Where does he come from? Well… Venerable Lord, you seem quite interested in my background. I am a scholar from Meng Province of the Kingdom of Shu. I come from the Dongfang family… which has produced generations of scholars… who have never passed the imperial examinations. My parents died early. My greatest wish… is to become the top scholar in the imperial examinations… and make my parents proud. If you still do not believe me, you can go to Meng Province to investigate the truth. I will investigate… the veracity of this story. Hey, this… I have failed in my duty. Sacred Lord, please punish me. Speak. Yin Shang Piao lost to Hua Qian Gu. I’m afraid that Bai Zi Hua’s chief disciple… What did you say? Yin Shang Piao was defeated by Hua Qian Gu? Yes. This is becoming ever more interesting. I am growing ever fonder of the little one. First, she fought on her own… against your 3,000 disciples. Soon after, she defeated Yin Shang Piao, the disciple you taught dedicatedly for over 10 years. It seems that… I’ll have to go to Chang Liu to visit her. Hua Qian Gu might have defeated Yin Shang Piao, but she didn’t get a good outcome either. Yin Shang Piao severely injured her. What did you say? How did she get hurt? Hua Qian Gu recklessly put her life at risk… and threw Yin Shang Piao off his guard. This little one… is truly giving her all. Just wait. I’m coming to check on your injuries. Hua Qian Gu, you must not give up. You must become Venerable Lord’s disciple. You must not lose. Miss. Focus your vital energy. I’m healing you. – But miss… – Don’t talk… or we’ll both experience energy deviation. That wretch. He injured you severely. If I see him, I’ll skin him. Miss, what are you talking about? It’s nothing. By the way, little one. I saw you practicing some useless moves just now. How are you going to beat anyone tomorrow? How about… I teach you the world’s most powerful magic technique? That’s not necessary, miss. I’m already very grateful… that you healed me so I can be at my best tomorrow. lest Chang Liu descends into chaos. What? Little one, remember this. If you are in any trouble, you must blow the bone whistle that I gave you. Understand? All right. Father. Father, are you all right? I’m fine. – Get up. – Tian Er, I’m all right. I just need a few days of rest. Tian Er. I just transferred one-tenth of my power to you. This won’t be enough to arouse any suspicion, but it can guarantee that you will win tomorrow’s match. I will surely do my best. Never did I imagine that… your opponent in the final match… would be Mount Shu’s sect leader, Hua Qian Gu. Fortunately, she was severely injured today. Father, what is this? Don’t ask questions. This sword has many hidden tricks. If you use it against Hua Qian Gu, your victory will be assured. Don’t worry, Father. I will defeat her. If you win… and become Bai Zi Hua’s disciple, then Peng Lai’s reputation among the sects… will naturally be improved. Peng Lai’s relationship with Chang Liu… will then be unbreakable. I understand. I’ll definitely win first place in the Immortal Sword Convention… and become Venerable Lord’s disciple. Good. Qian Gu, how is your injury? Qing Shui, I’m fine. Don’t worry. How can I not worry? You were unwell, to begin with. But you still practice secretly at night. How can your body hold up? Mother. Do you still remember our reason for coming to Chang Liu? Don’t push yourself too far. Tang Bao. Do you know? When one has a wish, he or she will… Qian Gu. Promise me that you’ll only try your best. Don’t risk your life. All right. Why don’t you just concede defeat and give up? That would allow you… to save yourself from embarrassment. What are you saying? Ni Man Tian is deft with a sword… but she isn’t proficient enough. Although she has considerable inner energy, her movements are inconsistent. If you want to defeat her, it’s not entirely impossible. Hey. Is he encouraging you or discouraging you? It’s all right. That’s just how he is. Father. Tian Er. Are you ready? I’m ready. The match will begin soon. You should go to the viewing platform. Tian Er. You must remember… what I told you last night. Do not be impetuous during the match. You must be steady and sure. Father, don’t worry. I will bring out my best skills. I will win this match for sure. Good. Man Tian. Man Tian. Are you still angry at me? What will it take for you to forgive me? Forgive you? Fine. I’ll forgive you if you forfeit the match. I’m sorry. I want to become Venerable Lord’s disciple, so I won’t concede defeat. Then I have nothing to say. I’ll see you in the arena. Today’s competition is the same as the qualifying match. Both competitors will compete on top of… the Big Dipper Reverse Formation. The use of concealed weapons is prohibited. Killing is prohibited. One touch concludes the match. The person who lands on the ground first loses. I have striven so hard up to this point… not just to find Mo Bing… or to find a place to call my home. I truly want to become your disciple… and be at your side. Whatever the outcome may be, whether you accept me as your disciple or not, I will give it everything I got, even if I have to risk my life. Hua Qian Gu, you’re severely injured. I would like to see how you can defeat me today. Go, Mother Bone! You can do it! I can’t be so unlucky that I lose to you every time. Good. Excellent. Sword of Forsaking, did you come to save me? Isn’t that Bai Zi Hua’s Sword of Forsaking? Zi Hua, what is… I gave it to her. Now, this is interesting. Sect Leader Ni, I’m afraid you’ll be disappointed today. Are you finally acknowledging me as your master? However, I am at the Immortal Sword Convention. Listen to me and leave now. Go! Hua Qian Gu, you still believe yourself to be infallible. You just wait and admit defeat! Qian Gu! Bone, you’re awake. Qian Gu, you’re finally awake. Mother, you’re finally awake. You’ve been unconscious for hours! Who… Who won? So… I was the one who touched the water first. Such is the will of the Heavens. Mother! You have already tried your best. Don’t be upset. I don’t care about the discipleship. I just want you to be all right! Don’t worry. I’m fine. Although you only placed second in the Immortal Sword Convention, that is already a good result. Qian Gu, take a pill first. You still have to go to the Discipleship Ceremony later. Rest well. In this year’s Immortal Sword Convention, those ranked in the top three are… Shuo Feng, Hua Qian Gu, and Ni Man Tian. Congratulations, Sect Leader Ni. Thank you. Thank you. The Discipleship Ceremony will now begin. May Sect Leader Bai first award an herb to his chosen disciple. Zi Hua. Invite Ni Man Tian to come forth. Everybody already knows that… the one who wins first place in the Immortal Sword Convention… will become Chang Liu’s chief disciple. You can’t refuse her. Let the others choose first. Then I’m not going to wait. Here. – What? – You don’t want it? No! Am I dreaming? – Here. – What? Refined Lord accepted us as his disciples! – Greetings, Master! – Greetings, Master! – Happiness and health to Master! – Happiness and health to Master! – Enough. – Long live Master! – Yes. – Yes. – Xiao Mo! – What? How could you take those two as disciples? In this class of disciples, those two are the worst troublemakers. It’s fine. This makes things interesting. Think about it. Overwhelming Hall will be lively from now on. Girl. Be my disciple. Qian Gu. Tao Weng is fierce and strict. Why don’t you be my disciple instead? Shi Yi. You shouldn’t be doing this. I finally chose someone to become my disciple. Can’t you give way to an old man like me? But it’s also my first time taking in a disciple. You’re my elder. You should indulge me. When other masters choose a disciple, the prospective disciples must compete with each other. Are you suggesting that… the two of us should compete? Mother. Pick Shi Yi. Pick Shi Yi, won’t you? Tang Bao, you are not to discriminate in favor of Shi Yi. Let Qian Gu choose on her own. What am I going to do? Why is Hua Qian Gu always the center of attention? She clearly lost to me. Yet there are still people fighting over her. What do I do? I have no chance of being Venerable Lord’s disciple. But… What’s going on? Shi Yi. Kneel. Zi Hua. Wait. Mount Chang Liu indeed. Bai Zi Hua indeed. It was clearly said that… the sect leader’s disciple… would be the winner of the Immortal Sword Convention! How can you change your mind? This is the sword that Ni Man Tian used… in the Immortal Sword Convention. It’s the same one that fell into the water. Sword of the Sky? The Sword of the Sky is an ancient relic. Its overwhelming sword aura can kill anyone within 32m. Although it doesn’t leave behind any surface wounds, it has already crushed all internal organs. Though it has already been sealed, its power is not to be underestimated. Not only did Bone suffer external wounds, her organs were also injured. It was this sword that hurt her. Could it be… How ridiculous. This was an unfair competition. From this day on, you are my disciple. Mother. What are you waiting for? Quickly accept the palace bell! This isn’t a dream, right? I have become Venerable Lord’s disciple. But… Does anyone have any objections? You already handed the Sword of Forsaking to her. So the chief disciple is predetermined. Then what is the point of all the formalities… and the Immortal Sword Convention? However, this is Chang Liu’s internal affair. As a sect leader, you will accept whomever you want. Would other people’s objections change your mind at all? Of course not. You… Sect Leader Ni. Zi Hua. As things stand, Ni Man Tian and Shuo Feng also have a good aptitude. Why not accept all three as your disciples? I will only accept one disciple as long as I shall live. You… Sect Leader Ni! Man Tian, get up. We’re leaving! Sect Leader Ni. Hold on. Sect Leader Bai is busy with many affairs. He will not have the time to mentor many disciples. She is a disciple with such excellent aptitude. Why not become my disciple? My disciple, Luo Shi Yi, may be young, but as you have seen, in the Immortal Sword Convention, he placed first in his category. Tian Er. All right. At this point, we will go with your suggestion. This gives Hua Qian Gu an advantage. Now, I’ll be lower in rank than her. There is plenty of time though. I will slowly settle this score with you. – Shi Yi. – Yes. Understood. I will surely do my utmost to guide Ni Man Tian… and won’t disappoint you. Please rest assured, Sect Leader Ni. However, Master, I would also like to take Shuo Feng… under our wing. Shuo Feng also has good aptitude. We’ll do as you suggested. The two of them shall train, compete, and progress together. Thank you, Master. Sect Leader Ni. Please take your seat. Girl. Why don’t you become my disciple? Immortals of Chang Liu, I, Bai Zi Hua, hereby accept Hua Qian Gu… as the 127th-generation disciple of our sect. I don’t hope that she can vanquish demons… and be renowned the world over. I only hope that she will have mercy for all living things… and have a clear conscience. Should she commit any wrongdoings, the fault shall lie entirely with me for my poor guidance. May the immortals be my witness. Immortals of Chang Liu, I, Hua Qian Gu, am a bearer of ill fate and plagued with misfortune. As an unfortunate person, I am indebted to Venerable Lord for not casting me aside, for teaching me with care, and accepting me as a disciple. I shall display strength and discipline, and be worthy of heaven and earth, Chang Liu, and Venerable Lord. I shall live and die… for Venerable Lord. I shall never disobey your orders. May heaven and earth be my witness. This is great. I can’t believe we can all stay. Yes, I even placed last. I thought I would be expelled from Mount Chang Liu. – I was so worried. – I can’t believe… a Chang Liu elder likes you… – and accepted you as a disciple. – Yes. Refined Lord even persuaded Honored Lord to be lenient. It’s so wonderful that you get to stay. What are you so happy for? You bunch of losers. – You… – Hey. How condescending. You… Let it go. She’s already furious enough… that Venerable Lord didn’t accept her. Why irritate her even further? She has to show deference to us anyway. You’re right. You’re our senior. Luckily, I have sharp eyes. Or else, you would’ve injured me. You weren’t watching where you were going. You were asking for it. It’s no wonder you didn’t catch Venerable Lord’s eye. You do have a bad temper. Don’t provoke me. It seems you do have a bad temper. I don’t understand it either. Hua Qian Gu has an average aptitude. Why did she get to become Venerable Lord’s disciple? Do you think that way too? I was also intent on becoming Venerable Lord’s disciple, but after seeing you, I knew it was going to be impossible. I’ve heard too many ingratiating words. I don’t have time to talk to you. Don’t you just want to be Venerable Lord’s disciple? You better make it clear. Hua Qian Gu is Venerable Lord’s only disciple. You just have to take her life. By that time, won’t you get what you want? Who is it? Man Tian, it’s me. Don’t put on an act. Man Tian, ever since the day we first met, you have been protecting and helping me. I have always cherished the friendship we have. I have never forgotten how good you were to me. Moreover, you are the first person in my life… who thought of me as a friend. Friend? You knew I always wanted to be Venerable Lord’s disciple. Yet you had to compete with me. Now that you have won, don’t flaunt your victory in front of me. From this day on, you and I are foes. We are no longer friends! Man Tian… You and I are foes. We are no longer friends! Is this the price for becoming Venerable Lord’s disciple? Must I lose my friend… to enter Heartless Hall? Losing a friend like that is no loss at all. – She is not worth being sad over. – Miss. I met so many companions. Once I move to Heartless Hall, I won’t get to play with them every day. All right. Let’s not talk about these meaningless things. I’ll take you out for some fun. Now that’s meaningful. Play? – Now? – Yes. We’ll go and play wherever you want. It’ll certainly cheer you up… and make you forget your troubles. Having a sister like me… is like having the whole world. I can give you anything you want. Thank you, miss. Lord of Strange Decay, Hua Qian Gu is getting ready to leave for Heartless Hall. There is one thing I don’t understand. Speak. Bai Zi Hua already knows that Hua Qian Gu is his fate calamity. He has not killed her or avoided her. Why is he willing to take her in as his disciple? One often meets his destiny… along the road he takes to avoid it. Bai Zi Hua has always persisted in the belief that… right is right, and wrong is wrong. Hua Qian Gu is merely his fate calamity. She has done nothing wrong. How could he bear to kill her? From the moment he gave Hua Qian Gu the Sword of Forsaking, he had already given up. Lord of Strange Decay, you are indeed clever. I merely predicted that he wouldn’t kill Hua Qian Gu. However, I didn’t think that… he would dare to accept her as his disciple. He dares to oppose the Heavens and face up to his calamity. Since he thinks nothing of a fate calamity, then he shouldn’t rue… the disasters that befall him. Qian Gu, I don’t know… when I’ll get to see you again after you leave. You make it sound like we’re never going to meet again. That’s not what I meant. But look, you’re leaving… and Xuan Lang is gone. You’re all leaving me. Don’t worry. I’ll come to see you all the time. Qian Gu. Promise me… that no matter where you go, you won’t forget about me. All right. I got it. You and Man Tian are both my good friends. Although… Why are you still thinking about Man Tian? Let me ask you something. When has she ever treated you like a friend? She always treated you like her maid. At the Immortal Sword Convention, she was so cruel to you. She played dirty… and hurt you so badly. It makes me mad just by talking about it. It’s all in the past. From now on, I’ll move to Heartless Hall and start a new life. – What’s happening? – Qian Gu? Qian Gu, what’s wrong? Qian Gu! Where am I? It’s so cold. What… What is this place? Why is it so cold in here? An ice bed? No wonder I feel so cold. Who could be living here? What a beautiful house! Heartless Hall. So this place is Heartless Hall. I am finally here! (Heartless Hall) Venerable Lord! Venerable Lord! You’re awake. Greetings, Venerable Lord. You should call me Master now. Greetings, Master. Stand up. Your body hasn’t healed yet, and you fainted last night. So I brought you here to heal you. From now on, you may rest here in the Heartless Hall. We have many rooms here. You can pick one that you like. Thank you, Master. Master, what about Tang Bao? Can it come to stay with me for a few days? Of course. Tang Bao went to send Dongfang Yu Qing and Yun Yin off… after making sure you were all right. It’ll come back soon. I should’ve woken up earlier. That way, I could’ve gone with it. Tang Bao is quite familiar with the surroundings now. When it comes back, it can show you around. There is no forbidden place in this hall. There’s only you and me. From now on, you don’t have to restrain yourself like you used to. You can go wherever you like. And you don’t need to tell me everything. Master. Why… Why did you take me in as your disciple? It was not my intention. Ni Man Tian won the competition with dirty tricks. She doesn’t deserve to be my disciple. As for you, although you are my disciple now, if you ever behave inadequately, I will not hesitate to throw you out. I will not let you down. Your arteries and veins are damaged. You can’t use your inner energy for now. But in the meantime, you mustn’t stop practicing. You need to memorize all of Chang Liu’s… Sky Ninth Technique. Yes, Master. Follow me. Hua Qian Gu. If you look down from here, what do you see? Master, forgive me for my ignorance. I see Mount Chang Liu, that’s it. How is it different now? It’s more spectacular. What else? Listen carefully. Worldly people see things with their eyes. But for us who practice immortal cultivation, we must feel every object… and everything… with our hearts. Is this the Chang Liu that Master sees every day? This must be the world in Master’s eyes. Master, have you been living here alone? Yes. How long has it been? Too long. I don’t recall. He looks down at the mountains every day, secretly guarding Chang Liu… and all the sects. How lonely must it be? Don’t be afraid, Master. From now on, I’ll be here with you. You will never be alone again. How’s your practice? Master, I’m working on it. First move, Silk-like River. Do that 100 times more. Master. What’s the matter? Well, Master… I haven’t eaten all day. I’m starving. – You wish to eat? – Yes! I searched all of Heartless Hall, yet I didn’t see any food. And I didn’t dare leave here to get food. Master, aren’t you ever hungry? I am not. You are immortal. You don’t need to eat. From this day forward, you may go to Hai Hall for food. Master. Can I bring the food back here? – Yes, you can. – Thank you, Master. I’ll go get some right now. – Hold on. – Yes? No food until you finish practicing. You dropped the palace bell. Be careful. Mother! Wake up! The sun is up! Hurry! You must go and greet Venerable Lord! Why didn’t you wake me up earlier? It’s my first time greeting my master in the morning. – This is bad. – Sorry, Mother. The bed is too comfortable. It helps me with my training. I even overslept! Loser. What a loser! You can’t even defeat a girl. Tell me. What good does it do me to keep you around? Please don’t be angry, Guardian Shan. Hua Qian Gu got away… only because I was too reckless. Did I say you could talk? Forgive me, Guardian Shan. Although I failed to become Bai Zi Hua’s chief disciple, I do possess other plans… to fulfill your wish… and steal the Flowing Light Harp. The Flowing Light Harp? It’s hidden within Heartless Hall. Do you think you’re capable… of getting the instrument… from Bai Zi Hua’s hands? Guardian Shan, I certainly cannot pull it off on my own. But I’ve found a reliable helper. Who is it? Ni Man Tian. You mean the daughter… of Ni Qian Zhang, the sect leader of Peng Lai? Indeed. She is a disciple of Chang Liu. Why would she help you? Because Hua Qian Gu defeated her. The hatred is rooted deep within her heart. If she helps me… to get rid of Hua Qian Gu, Bai Zi Hua will have to recruit a new disciple. By then, Ni Man Tian will surely be his first choice. I know something about her. She’ll kill Bai Zi Hua if I ask her to. Let alone stealing… the Flowing Light Harp. Yin Shang Piao. – Yes, Guardian Shan. – I’ll give you one more chance. If you fail this time, I don’t want to see you again! I understand. Don’t worry. Master! Master! Master! I’m in the study. The study? Where’s the study? Master! Master! Master? Master! Where’s your study? Master! Master! Master! I’m here to greet you. There’s no need to. You and I are the only ones in this hall. You can forgo the formalities. Don’t make it a habit to interrupt me. I will call you if I need you. You may rise. Yes, Master. Memorize every word in this book. I’ll find time to quiz you about it. Thank you, Master. I will work hard and not make you worry. Go. Master, is there anything I can help you with? For example, cleaning, washing clothes, or grinding the ink for you. You can order me to do anything. I don’t need it. I will leave you then. Qian Gu. Yes, Master. This “Book of Seven Best” is for you only. You cannot show it to Tang Bao, nor have it explain the book to you. Understood? One more thing. No shouting in here. I don’t like noises. Go. I understand, Master. Mother. Did Venerable Lord really forbid me from reading it? This is “Book of Seven Best”. It’s much more tempting… than a delicious food for a Spirit Worm like me. If I get to have a peek, I’ll become the most intelligent worm in the world! Tang Bao, you already know a lot of things. You don’t need to know more. Do you really think so, Mother? Of course. You’re my precious treasure. You are the best little worm. You’re the best, Mother. Mother, don’t worry. For you, I won’t even touch the edge of the book. All right. I thought Master would teach me all the techniques… and that coming here would be the best choice. But all he wants… is for me to read books. Is the book boring? It’s so thin. I think I can memorize it in a day. And he wants me to spend one year on it. Isn’t that great? You can learn it… while playing and having fun. It’s completely stress-free. That’s exactly why I don’t feel good about this. Mother. Take the offer and don’t ask any more of him. Tang Bao! Mother, I should leave here. – The book is too tempting. – Yes. I’ll leave you to read the book. (“Book of Seven Best”) (Chapter of Swords) (Chapter of Needlework) (Chapter of Music) No way. The chapter not only contains… instruments, theories, sheet music of guqin, bamboo flute, and songs, and everything that has to do with music. (Chapter of Swords) My goodness. This is even better. The origins and the legends of various sword factions… And the masters. Knacks. All kinds of swordplay. There’s everything. Every detail! (Chapter of Beings) Trees and flowers, mystical beasts, medicine and poisons, as well as fragrance formulas. But… I can’t memorize everything in one year. Even if you give me seven years, I still can’t do it. Heavens, is this a joke from you and Master? However, Master only told me to memorize it, not learn it. (Chapter of Swords) If I dedicate my time and energy to it, I think I’ll be able to memorize it soon enough. (Chapter of Music) It can even play music. Since I can hear its music, then what about the Chapter of Swords? (Yong Chang Gate) I was not the firstborn of the Kingdom of Shu. Thanks to the Heavens, I was able to carry on my father’s legacy. As I sit on this throne, I shall obey my father’s teachings, advocate moral education, learn from great emperors like Yao and Shun… and the great dynasties, Han and Tang. I want my chancellors to be in their prime. We shall guide the society as one. Make this kingdom… thrive with the sky and the earth… and shine with the sun and the moon. – Long live the emperor! – Long live the emperor! My brother, Xuan Cong, is a man with virtue and righteousness. He is devoted to family. I shall follow our ancestors’ will… and name him King Ming. You will be in charge of the Chi Yan Army… and protect the borders. Thank you, Your Majesty. Please reconsider, Your Majesty. I’ve already named him King Ming… in front of every official. Do you expect me to deny myself in public? Your Majesty, King Ming has an unquenchable thirst… to become the emperor. You know that. Lie Xing Yun, the throne belonged to my big brother. If he wants it, I can give it to him anytime. Your Majesty! Enough. I know what you’re thinking. Stand up. I have faith in him. He would never dare. Besides, I promised you I’d inherit the throne and I have. What else do you want? When I was leaving Chang Liu, I kept telling Qian Gu I’d return in time… to attend the Immortal Sword Convention. Qian Gu must be blaming me… for not keeping my promise. Lie Xing Yun. Send a messenger to Chang Liu. Tell her… that I don’t know… when I’ll see her again. Your Majesty, the top-scoring student is here. Don’t let him in. I’m busy, can’t you see it? Your Majesty. Fine. Let him in. Come in! Long live, Your Majesty. What is your name? Your Majesty, my name is Dongfang Yu Qing. Why are you here again? I’m not here to see you. I heard you chose a disciple… at the Immortal Sword Convention. I’m here to see the person… who’s good enough to be your disciple. That person is not here at the moment. I heard… she’s a girl… Does that matter? Why didn’t you take more people in? They can take care of you. Don’t you think it’s inconvenient that you are here alone… with a woman? Once a teacher, always a teacher. What’s inconvenient? I made this fragrance recently. It can soothe your mind. Demons are in their prime these days. Don’t give yourself too much pressure… on Chang Liu’s matters. I guess a disciple does you good. It makes the place more lively. At least… Heartless Hall isn’t as quiet anymore. Thank you. (Heartless Hall) High Immortal Zi Xun! Are you… Hua Qian Gu? Yes. High Immortal Zi Xun, I attended one of your lessons. I loved the fragrance you made. I thought she was somebody… since Zi Hua chose her to be his disciple. Turns out she’s just an insignificant stupid girl. I guess Zi Hua made an abrupt decision… because Mo Yan forced him to. Mother. You’re just in time. Practice with me. It feels so weird that Tang Bao… isn’t here with me. Master. Music is known to move people with emotions. Master’s music… has its shape, its sound, its spirit, yet it has no emotions in it. It makes me… feel hopeless and desperate. It must be because Master has been alone… up in the ninth heaven. He watches over this mountain, this land, and this bizarre world… for more than thousands of years. Battle of music… is one of the most common out there. Guqin is considered the best among four arts… and eight instruments. It has the most profound… and touching sound. You can read about all the other instruments. But you need… to learn how to play the guqin. Have you read the sheet music? Yes, Master. I memorized it all. I just… haven’t tried playing it. Come here. Yes, Master. Try it. Yes, Master. Qian Gu. Let me show you. When you play, loosen your wrists… and try to straighten your thumbs. Let your fingers go down naturally. When you move around, don’t let your index fingers go too deep. That way, every chord… can be heard clearly. Don’t rush. Concentrate… and feel the waves. Each wave has power to break stones and gold. Master is teaching me to play the guqin. But my hands are not in control here. Got it? Got it. Practice when you have time. There are many guqins in the music room. Pick one that you fancy. – Thank you, Master. – It’s quite late now. Go to bed. You can practice tomorrow. Qing Shui! Tang Bao. Why are you here? And where’s Qian Gu? Bone is too busy to play with me these days. So I had to come to you. Why are you here washing clothes? Don’t even mention it. There’s this sword technique that I just couldn’t manage. So Master Tao Weng punished me… and he wouldn’t let me practice immortal techniques. You get punished for failing? However, Master Tao Weng… is not as strict as Venerable Lord. – What do you mean? – Bone isn’t fully healed yet. But he makes her practice every day… and has her memorize the entire “Book of Seven Best”. – “Book of Seven Best”? – Yes. That’s one of Chang Liu’s most precious treasures. It has records of everything. Venerable Lord let Qian Gu read that too? Yes. Mother goes nowhere without the book. She’s really hardworking. How lucky. If I had known, I would’ve done all that I could to be his disciple. Well, it’s all about fate. You’re right. He even passed “Book of Seven Best” to Hua Qian Gu. Looks like she’s lucked out. Staring me down is useless. They are learning and having fun. Don’t say I didn’t remind you. I don’t care if you’re jealous or just envious. You’re not going to change anything… by sitting around. Cut the crap! I, Ni Man Tian, am not someone you can scold at. Tang Bao. Have you seen Man Tian lately? Every time I went out, I only saw Qing Shui and others. It has been so long since I saw Man Tian. I wonder if she’s all right. I wonder if she’s still mad at me. Mother. She was nothing but mean to you at the convention. Why is she still on your mind? She was just desperate to be Venerable Lord’s disciple. Who doesn’t? One has to fight fair. Mother. You haven’t been eating much. Are you feeling unwell? Being here myself is so lonely. It has been a month. I can count with my fingers just how many times… I’ve seen Master this month. I have meals all by myself. I have no appetite… because no one is fighting for the food. Then why don’t you find someone to be your company? This is Heartless Hall. Not everyone gets to be in here. Even Qing Shui can’t be here. You didn’t mean Master, did you? I did. Master is immortal. He doesn’t need food. Besides, I feel like Master is extra strict with me. He’s so distant. That’s why… you have to work harder to get him to eat with you. Then, you’ll see him at least once a day. That’s how you bond with your master. You’re right. Master. Master. I made this dish just for you. Would you have a taste? No, thank you. Master. I spent the whole day making this. Just have one bite. Just one. What do you think? That’s great. I’m glad you like it. Master. Since you find it tasty, I have a question for you. Speak. Would you please spend… a few moments every day, just a few moments will do, to have meals with me? I used to eat with my father. And then, I ate with Qing Shui. But ever since I came here, I’ve felt so alone. Look. I got skinnier. Fine. Thank you, Master. Wait. What’s wrong? Where did you get the ice lotus? I saw the lotus blooming so beautifully in the backyard. So I thought of this dish. I took it to make it for you. This thousand-year-old ice lotus… was transplanted here… from a frozen place in the north. I took care of it for years… for it to bloom just a few flowers. And you ate it. You’re not allowed to eat! (Tower Room) Master. Master. I didn’t do it on purpose. Tang Bao, what’s wrong with you? Mother, my stomach hurts. It must be all the ice lotus you ate. All right. I’ll rub your tummy. You’ve been craving a lot of food. Your tummy is so round now. No. I still have a slim waist. Waist? Where is it? Here? Or there? – Is it here? – It’s too itchy, Mother. “The top note is almost undetectable,” “yet the heart note comes at you…” “like strong waves.” “You can’t help it…” “but immerse yourself in the fragrance .” Making fragrances… is more difficult than it seems. High Immortal Zi Shun is incredible. Mother. What’s wrong? You need to go and see Qing Shui. Qing Shui? What’s wrong with her? Tell me, Tang Bao. Qing Shui is… Say it. What’s wrong with Qing Shui? Stop crying, Qing Shui. Xuan Lang is the emperor now. It’s good news. We should be happy. He left Chang Liu to be the emperor. I’ll never see him again. There’s nothing we can do. He has a great responsibility. If we miss him, we can visit him at the palace, all right? It’s not that easy. Qing Shui, look. This is the comma-shaped jade he gave me. He said it’s just like a token. If we miss him, we will definitely be able to see him with this. Really? Yes. Then when we’re free, let’s go down the mountain together to find him. All right, I promise. But then again, isn’t Xuan Lang the second son? How could he become the emperor? It’s not my concern. Anyways, it’s something to be happy about, isn’t it? There’s more than one good news from the palace. There’s another really good news. Mother, Father scored the highest in the imperial examination. – Really? – Yes. That’s great. You’ll soon become his wife. He’ll be on his way home to marry you. Tang Bao, watch your mouth. Qing Shui, you don’t have to worry. Dongfang will be a good chancellor to Xuan Lang. You two are shameless. Why don’t you just go get married? Why practice to be immortals? Don’t sabotage Chang Liu’s good reputation. Man Tian. Ni Man Tian, watch that mouth of yours! Qian Gu is supposed to be your elder now. How dare you not greet her? I forgot. Should I be calling you Elder Qian Gu now? That’s not necessary. Well, I’m sure you’ve learned a handful from Venerable Lord. Let’s have a duel. Don’t you touch her. You hurt Qian Gu so bad. She hasn’t fully healed yet! She still has internal injuries. Come at me instead! You? You don’t deserve my presence! Man Tian, Qing Shui. Stop it! Qing Shui! Sword of Forsaking! Tang Bao! Tang Bao. – You are… – You… Mother, I am Tang Bao! Tang Bao? You’ve become a human. – Tang Bao? – That’s great. How did you become a human? – Yes. – Let me see. Brat, do you still want to fight against us three? Come on. I’m not afraid! Tang Bao! You’re human now. Let me see. That’s right. How did I become a human? Yesterday, my stomach ached a little… and I felt hot all over. I was in a panic earlier, then I just transformed! I told you not to eat just anything. But my Tang Bao is human now. – You’re human now! – Yes! Mother Bone, I will protect you from now on. I will protect you too! Miss. – Who are you looking for? – Don’t you recognize me? I’ve never met you before. Who are you? Do I look pretty? I’m asking you. Do I look pretty? Am I beautiful? Miss. You should go. You just need to answer me if I’m pretty. Do you like how I look? No. Why? Miss. You should stop bothering me and go. What if I don’t want to leave? Are you going to pick me up and take me away like you used to? You… I can pinch you now. I didn’t let you bully me in vain. You… Are you Tang Bao? Take a guess. Did a disciple send you to play a trick on me? It wasn’t easy for me to become human! You should be comforting me with peaches, not suspecting this and that. – Tang Bao? – Yes. You’ve really become a human! You’re so stupid. This one and this one. And these. Take them all. Bone, are you giving me all these pretty clothes and jewelry? I’m happy that you’ve become human. But you can’t stay with me at Heartless Hall like before. Don’t be sad, Bone. When I was still a worm, everyone closed one eye to me staying at Heartless Hall. I’m human now. It would be too much if I insist on staying here. But didn’t Venerable Lord promise me… that I could come to see you anytime? It’s a privilege that only I have. Besides, Heartless Hall is so cold and quiet. It’s not fun here at all. When I’m down there, I can play with Shi Yi and Qing Shui every day. Tang Bao. You don’t want me anymore? Bone, how could I not want you? Don’t worry, I’ll come to see you every day. – Promise. – Yes. Master. Master. I’m in the study. It’s time to eat, Master. Master. I made you bewitching ginkgo meat, assorted licorice, hibiscus soup, stir-fried chrysanthemum, and honeydew soup. Master, try them. – Master. – One must not talk when they eat. What are you doing? Master, I’m planting flowers and cleaning the hall. Look how clean it is. You can just tell the disciples to clean. You don’t have to trouble yourself. Master. You like peace and quiet, so let me handle them all. It only feels like home if you clean it yourself. Also, just leave the tasks of cleaning, getting water, washing clothes, and cooking to me. I’m going to water the flowers now. Crap. It’s a herb I’ve cared for decades. I’m sorry, Master. I didn’t mean to. I punish you to read upside down today. (Heartless Hall) I’m so tired. Qian Gu. – There’s a letter for you. – Li Meng. Thank you. There’s no need to guess. It must be from Dongfang. His handwriting is even worse than mine. He wants to pass the exam like this? He must be joking. I miss you, Little Bone. So much that my bones hurt. He even drew pictures. I must tell Tang Bao how ugly you’ve drawn her. Hua Qian Gu. Greetings, Honored Lord. As a disciple of our sect, you’re dumb and slow. Where is your master? He… He must be at Sword Pavilion. Or in the hall at the back mountain. No, he should be in the study. Or maybe… Master! – Master! – What’s with you as a disciple? – You are such… – Mo Yan. Are you looking for me? Let’s talk inside. Why is Honored Lord always so fierce towards me? He always seems especially angry when he sees me. Never mind. Let’s look at Dongfang’s letter first. What brings you here to Heartless Hall? It’s nothing important. I wanted to see how your new disciple was doing. Zi Hua. The sword she used at the convention has started rusting. Perhaps the material is different. I feel uneasy no matter how I think about it. Give me her Stone of Life. Let me investigate it once more. Mo Yan. I will investigate my own disciple. You don’t have to worry. I heard Sect Leader Wen is holding a birthday feast. Venerable Lord will be away from Heartless Hall tomorrow. Hua Qian Gu will be the only one left in Heartless Hall. I told you. Not everyone can enter Heartless Hall. We can’t enter that place, but Hua Qian Gu will come down eventually. She hasn’t fully recovered yet. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime chance. What do you mean? I want Hua Qian Gu… to disappear from this world. Do you want to kill Hua Qian Gu? Don’t you want her dead? I… I only want to be Venerable Lord’s disciple. But not to the point of killing her. I never thought Ms. Ni would be so merciful. Don’t think I don’t know what you’re trying to do. If you kill Hua Qian Gu, I will be the prime suspect. You can kill two birds with one stone… by framing me. Then you will be Venerable Lord’s disciple. How could you say that? I’m only thinking of your best interest. All right. Even if you don’t want to kill Hua Qian Gu, I have other ways… to have her expelled from Chang Liu… and make you Venerable Lord’s disciple. What ways? Where are the poison needles I gave you? What’s that? Marrow Cleansing Essence. Combined with this odorless and colorless poison, Hua Qian Gu will lose her immortal essence… if she is pricked by this… and becomes a mortal forever. She will never be able to cultivate. By then, even if Venerable Lord lets, Honorable Lord won’t let such useless person stay in Chang Liu… as the Sect Leader’s disciple. Master is not here. Tang Bao isn’t here either. I’m so bored. Li Meng. What’s the matter? let me bring you out to play. Look, miss! The fishes are so pretty. Miss. Little one. Tell me, why am I so pretty? Yes, miss. Why are you so pretty? It’s a shame. My appearance is the prettiest in the world. But why isn’t my power… the strongest in the world? How can it be a match for my looks? Miss, I’ve always wanted to ask you something. Who are you exactly? How can you come and go Mount Shu and Chang Liu as you please? Little one, I don’t want to lie to you. But right now, I can’t tell you either. I definitely won’t harm you. I only want to treat you well. Do you trust me? Yes, I trust you. What a silly kid. But besides me, never easily trust what others say to you. Do you understand? Yes. When I was young, I never had friends and always played alone. I always thought that it would be nice if I had a sibling. They won’t look down on me, be afraid of me, or hate me. Now, I have a sister. And she is even the prettiest in the world. What a sweet talker. Then I’ll come to play with you often. It’s so beautiful! I planted these flowers here myself. I got the seeds from the six realms. You won’t get a sight of this somewhere else. So? Do you like them? Miss, what is this place called? In the past, Liu Xia and I passed by this place to rest. She loved that this place… was filled with flowers. So… I used my power… and made this place on my own. But… I never gave it a name. Look, miss. There are so many plants and flowers here. Let’s call it Flower Island. What? Flower Island? Yes. How about that? The name sounds beautiful. It’s decided then. Miss, I have a favor to ask. What is it? Just tell me. I love these flowers. Can I take some of them… and plant them at Heartless Hall? My master loves flowers. But I killed some of them by accident. Of course you can. If you like, not just these flowers, you can even take the whole island up to Heartless Hall. Thank you, miss. But you’re giving them all to me. Don’t you like flowers anymore? If I had to compare, what flower in this world is more beautiful than me? Rather than liking flowers, why don’t I like myself instead? What do you think, little one? You’re right. You’re the prettiest! I caught a fish! Miss, I caught a fish! In this world, there are other sights so beautiful… that bring one at peace… besides my looks. Miss. You can send me off here. I can get back by myself. But there is still some distance to Heartless Hall. Let’s go a little further. It’s fine, miss. Chang Liu’s barrier is very powerful. I don’t want you to get hurt. How can I get hurt? Chang Liu… is a place… I can come and go freely… as I please. It’s true, but it’s better to stay out of trouble when possible. Do I really send you off here? Yes. Miss. Please don’t put on such a sad expression. Am I not pretty anymore? No, you’re very pretty. But it makes me sad to leave you. If that’s the case, then why don’t you leave with me? What’s so good about Chang Liu? Miss, I like Chang Liu. It’s just like my home. All right. I’ll come to accompany you again. Right, little one. Do you always carry with you the whistle I gave you? Of course, I always keep what you gave me by my side. Little one. If you need anything… or run into danger, remember to blow the whistle. No matter where I am, I will rush here immediately to save you. Don’t worry, miss. I got it. Miss. I am a lonely person. To receive your love, my life in this world is not in vain. This time, I will protect you well. I will never let anyone harm you again. I’ve been gone for so long. I wonder if Master is back. I need to hurry back. You’ve been the chief disciple for so long, so why are you still so terrible? Doesn’t Venerable Lord find you embarrassing? What are you trying to do? Since you’re Venerable Lord’s disciple, you must have learned a lot. We just want to have a little competition with you. Let’s see if our power has improved. Yes, we just want to have a little duel with you. I wonder if you’re willing to. Man Tian, why are you doing this? Must we keep fighting like this? So what if we must? The fight has already started. We must keep it going. Are you afraid? You can’t leave! Are you still leaving? Stop! What are you doing? Didn’t you see it? I’m just practicing my martial arts with her. Is that practicing? You really live up to your name. It’s two of us against you, but you could still defeat us. If Shuo Feng didn’t show up in time, we would have been in trouble. It’s a shame. You’re so useless. You’re an embarrassment… to Venerable Lord. What do you mean? What does my ability have to do with my master? Of course it’s related. Do you think everyone knows who you are? People only know you as Bai Zi Hua’s disciple. It’s fine if you embarrass yourself, but don’t ruin Venerable Lord’s reputation! Sorry for the bother. We will come again for advice once we have trained better. You should go back. Be careful of them both from now on. Shuo Feng. Thank you. Even if Man Tian is targeting me, what she said is true. Since I’m his disciple, I shouldn’t embarrass him any longer. Shuo Feng is a nuisance. He should have just kept quiet… and minded his own matters. Fortunately, our plan today wasn’t ruined by him. It was carried out smoothly. I think Shuo Feng is probably on Hua Qian Gu’s side. We have to be more way of him moving forward. He might ruin our plans in the future… and take it up to Venerable Lord. Are you done yet? What use is there to yell at me? You know that Shuo Feng is your senior. He is helping Hua Qian Gu instead of you. I’m afraid… only I am on your side… in the whole of Chang Liu. Hua Qian Gu has been poisoned by my Marrow Cleansing Essence… and is losing her immortal essence. Once you’ve become the leader’s disciple, remember to reward me greatly. Where is Bone? She’s not back yet. Is she angry at me because I keep spending time… with Shi Yi and Qing Shui and neglected her? Bone! Where are you, Bone? You finally remembered me. You’re back, Bone. I waited so long for you. Why did you wait for me? So you remember your Mother Bone. How could I forget you? I like you the most. What’s wrong, Mother? Are you sad? What’s the matter? Why can’t you tell me? Man Tian is still angry at me for being the chief disciple. I don’t know what to do anymore. Bone. When you used to be with that fierce brat, you had to keep yielding to her. Besides, being Venerable Lord’s disciple… is the biggest dream of yours. You worked so hard to get Venerable Lord to acknowledge you. What’s wrong with that? Yes. I feel very happy being at Heartless Hall every day. It’s just like a dream. The Heavens heard me and made my wish come true. I had no other wishes. I just wanted to live a simple and happy life here. But… I realized… I shouldn’t be satisfied with just that. I’m not just Hua Qian Gu now. I’m also Venerable Lord’s disciple. I carry his honor on my back. If I cannot be his pride, what right do I have… to be his only disciple? That’s true, but you haven’t stopped practicing. Why are you thinking so much today? Did Ni Man Tian give you trouble again? Did she bully you again? Man Tian was born gifted. During this time, she practiced hard. Her martial arts skills and discipline… have improved greatly. But you’re not bad either. Am I not bad? I’ve been taking it easy… every day these few months. I didn’t improve at all. So… it’s right for Man Tian to mock and look down on me. I knew it. It’s all because of Ni Man Tian. I’ll go and deal with her right now! Tang Bao. Don’t be silly. Rather than just using our words, we should make use of right now to make up for the lost time. How many days has it been? All she knows is practice. She’s not eating or leaving her room. How can she survive like this? (Tower Room) Bone. Are you all right, Bone? I brought you food. Eat some. I’m not hungry. I don’t want to eat anything. How can you not be hungry? How many days have you not eaten? Bone, just open the door. Bone? I’ve left the food at the door. Make sure to eat them when you’re hungry. Don’t forget. (Tower Room) What happened? Why can’t I focus my inner energy? Is it because I’m not fully recovered yet? No. I can do it. I can! Tang Bao. Tang Bao, look. I picked these fresh vegetables and fruits myself. And your favorite sugar snowballs. What’s the use? No one will eat them anyway. What’s wrong, Tang Bao? Is Qian Gu sick? It’s fine if she is. Then she can be cured. But becoming crazy can’t be cured with medicine. Don’t scare me. Has Qian Gu gone crazy? Yes. She locks herself up in the room all day… to practice without stopping to eat or rest. I’m really worried that something will happen to her. This… It’s only natural to use hard work as she is not gifted. Greetings, Master. How could you say that? It’s all because of you. Ni Man Tian, what did you do? I only had a little duel with her. What’s wrong with that? Don’t make it sound so nice. You only wanted to humiliate Bone. I can’t do anything if you think that way. No one would have thought that she would hardly improve… even though she was made the disciple of Venerable Lord. But now that I think about it, what can such an ordinary person become? You… Don’t. Bone. Can you open up? I haven’t seen you for days. Bone. Say something, Bone. Don’t scare me. What’s the matter? Venerable Lord. Bone hasn’t come out for three days. Will she become too obsessed with practicing? Bone! You should go. Yes. Zi Hua, what’s going on? Qian Gu was poisoned by Marrow Cleansing Essence. She must have realized, so she tried to suppress it and lead to qi deviation. Marrow Cleansing Essence? Isn’t that… Fortunately, I found out in time. If I was even a step late, she would have lost her immortal essence… and died. Zi Hua, what are you doing? I’m going to open up her Immortal Vein. Have you gone mad? You might lose thousands of years of cultivation, or even lose your own life. I must do this, or she won’t be able to become an immortal. Chang Liu has 8,000 disciples. There are many who are just like her. Why do this for her? She is my disciple, so I have to take responsibility. Go. No. I know no one can stop you… when you are determined to do something. But this is too dangerous. At least, let me keep an eye on the situation here. Bone, you’re awake. – Tang Bao? – Yes. Wasn’t I in the Tower Room? Why am I here? What Tower Room? Seven days have passed. That wasn’t a short time. Are you joking, Tang Bao? You scared me to death! Why would I joke with you? Bone, you experienced qi deviation as you were poisoned… by Marrow Cleansing Essence. I don’t know what would have happened to you… if Venerable Lord didn’t arrive in time. – Venerable Lord is back? – Yes. But when did I get poisoned? Exactly. Why were you poisoned? Think about it. Which jerk poisoned you? When I find out, I will beat him up. Where are you going, Bone? Venerable Lord wants you to rest… and he told me to take care of you. Don’t worry, Tang Bao. I’ve been in bed for seven days. I feel really energetic today. My body feels light. As if I’m a drop of water. My heart feels clear and free. Of course. Bone, you gained a silver lining. Venerable Lord used all his energy to open up your Immortal Vein. Immortal Vein? You said he opened up my Immortal Vein? Yes. Greetings, High Immortal Zi Xun. Zi Hua. I made this Wind Jade Dew especially for you. It can help you regulate your body. Take it. I’m fine. Give it to Qian Gu. How could you say you’re fine when you’ve used so much power? I don’t know what you’ve got… There are 8,000 disciples in Chang Liu. There must be a spy among them. How dare they harm my disciple. I won’t let this continue. Ni Man Tian. What do you have to say for yourself? I’ve made a mistake. I didn’t think you would still be fine. You’re wrong. I went insane. I almost lost my immortal essence and even my life. Fortunately, Master saved me in time. But he used up a century of his power. Hua Qian Gu. Are you boasting that you’ve escaped a disaster… or that you’ve got yourself a good master? Don’t think what’s in your hands can prove anything. Report me to Venerable Lord and Honorable Lord if you dare. We’ll see if they believe you. Man Tian, in my heart, you might be arrogant, but you are brave to admit your faults. When other disciples looked down on me, you were willing to be my friend and look after me. We once worked hand in hand to kill enemies. Why did you become like this? Don’t try to preach to me. Let me tell you, Hua Qian Gu. All this while, I only regarded you as my servant. All right, Ni Man Tian. Moving forward, I will no longer regard you as my friend. Just come at me with whatever you have. If you harm anyone around me… or our own people, I won’t let you go easily! Tang Bao. You’re taking up my space. I have so many things to tell my father. I miss him so much. Do you? Let me have a look at the letter. It’s a secret. It’s a secret between me and my father. Fine, I won’t look. All right, it’s done. Are you done writing? If you’re done, I will… All right, I’ll fold it up. Bone, could you send me away too tomorrow? So that I can meet my father. Sure, I’ll send you away. You don’t have to come back anymore. Bone. Don’t you miss my father? Of course I miss him. I think about him all the time, but I haven’t had a chance to see him. By the way, Tang Bao, I’ve reached the level of Profound Observation, but how do I use the technique? You’ve asked the right person. You can use the technique… through a mirror, water, and other mediums… to check on people that you want to see… and things that you want to know. For those who are skilled, they just have to do some simple calculations with their fingers… and they’ll see things that are happening a million miles away. Does that mean someone might be peeking at us all the time? Mount Chang Liu is enchanted and it has barriers. Those spies can never come in. Besides, this technique is extremely depleting. No one has been able to do it for a long time. It’s also affected by distance, strength, location, field, and many other factors. A high level of concentration is needed. It’s not easy even with the help of aiding tools. Tang Bao, does that mean I can see the person that I want to see… through a mirror? Bone, will you be more realistic? With my current prowess, I can only detect someone’s presence… but I can’t see anything. I bet you’re not any better than I am. We won’t know without trying. Just tell me what to do. All right, let’s go. Stay focused and look in the mirror. Pay rapt attention to the mirror. Think about the person that you want to see. Don’t get distracted. Why can’t I see anything? Who are you thinking about? I’m thinking about Dongfang. He’s so far away. Of course you can’t see him. You should start from the nearest place. Start from Heartless Hall, then proceed to Mount Chang Liu. In the end, you’ll get to see the whole world. Heartless Hall? Are you suggesting me to take a look at my master? Of course. Venerable Lord is the nearest to us. We can try to locate him. However, I think the best we can do… is to guess his current location. Are you serious? You’ve exceeded my ability. That’s so unfair! Where is this? Is he in the studies? That’s strange. Where’s my master? He could be at the observation deck. Bone, you shouldn’t look around aimlessly, it will use up a lot of your energy. Feel it with your heart to see if Venerable Lord is there. Find out his whereabouts and exact location. It will be easier that way. I found him! Who? Venerable Lord is… – He’s taking a bath! – He’s taking a bath! Master! I’ve made a mistake. What is it? I… I… Did you ruin my flower again? No, Master. Master. I didn’t intend to peek at you while you were taking a bath. I didn’t intend to do that!. Master, I just wanted to check on you… when I was practicing Observance Technique. I didn’t expect… that you were taking a bath. I didn’t see anything. The only thing that I saw… was your bare back. Master, please punish me. I’ll accept any punishment. Forget about it. Rise. Rise. For a beginner to control the technique that well… is not an easy task. I don’t blame you. But from now on, you have to be more careful… when you use Observance Technique. You may get back to your studies. Yes. Thank you, Master. Master, I’ve learned from my mistake. I didn’t mean it. I just wanted to check on you… when I was practicing Observance Technique. I didn’t expect… that you were taking a bath. I was wondering… who the person with such great prowess… to break through the enchantment… of Mount Chang Liu and Heartless Hall. Turns out it was Qian Gu. I think it’s because I passed some of my immortal powers onto her. Since our smell is similar now, I didn’t guard against her. Why are you here? I’m worried about you. I’m here to check on your recovery. This toy… is well-made. Qian Gu made it. I knew it. Only she has the time and effort to do this. Have you heard from Tan Fan lately? He has been practicing medicine in the mortal realm. I checked on him secretly a few times. It seems that he’s living a fruitful and happy life. Surprisingly, among the Five High Immortals, he’s the only one… who’s living a carefree life. Of course. Among all of us, he’s the only person who lives by his heart. Lives by his heart? How about you? You have no emotion and desire after becoming the sect leader. Are you living by your heart? You let go of the past and make an exception to take in a disciple. Is that an act of living by your heart? Zi Xun, you should know… that in my world, there are only things that I should and shouldn’t do. Willingness is never a choice. You’re right. For a person who can completely ignore his desire, I can’t have hopes… that he’ll live up to my expectations. Zi Hua, bear in mind. I would rather you stay heartless forever. Bone, you’re still awake. You’re eating again. Didn’t you say that you would go on a diet a few days ago? But Shi Yi thinks that I’m too skinny. He told me to eat more. You didn’t bother to listen to me… when I told you to eat more. Bone, what are you drawing? I’m drawing a portrait of my master. Are you sure you’re drawing your master, but not the White Impermanence? Of course. I’m drawing my master’s bare back. Tang Bao, how can you spit on the portrait of my master? Don’t think that I can’t twist you into a braid… just because you’re in your human form. Bone, you’re getting more violent these days. I can be more violent than this. Do you want to see it? You… Bone! I think you should pay all your attention on drawing. No matter how I look at the portrait, he doesn’t look like Venerable Lord. Of course. None of the portraits in the world can contain the handsomeness, the appearance, the glow, and the elegance of my master. Why are you still drawing his portrait then? I wanted to practice calligraphy, but the scene that we saw… just appeared in my mind for no reason, so I drew the portrait. That’s great. Bone, you have no idea how well-received… the portrait of Three Lords at Mount Chang Liu. We can sell all the portraits… to make money. What are you talking about? How can I sell my master’s portraits to others? I want to keep it. It’s a collection. I want to draw Shi Yi. Master, please have some tea. Master, have some of these. Try this one. Master, your clothes are washed. Qian Gu. Master, I made this peach flower dessert specially for you. Have a taste. The main ingredient is the peach flower… from the peach tree at the back mountain. You won’t punish me again, will you? What do you think? Is it good? Yes. Why aren’t you smiling if it tastes good? I don’t make a living by selling my smile. Master, how does it taste? Is it good? I have a meeting with the other two lords. I have to go to Chang Liu Hall now. Master! Are you sure you’re going to Chang Liu Hall like this? Don’t you need to tie up your hair? I can’t do my hair. Li Meng will do it for me. Master. You have a disciple now. You shouldn’t trouble Li Meng anymore. Come. Master, from now on, I’ll do your hair, all right? The new batch of disciples have practiced for quite some time. It’s time to let them leave the mountain… to do some hands-on training. Shi Yi, you’ll lead the group. Yes, Master. Bear in mind… that you’re prohibited from mingling with humans. Unless it’s an absolute necessity, you can never use your power in front of humans. Once you’ve crossed the sea and landed on earth, you must stop flying and proceed with the journey on foot. Don’t forget to observe the situation in the mortal realm, gain knowledge, and uphold justice throughout the journey. I really envy you. When can I do the same? How nice it is to leave the mountain and go out for some fun. Xiao Mo. There’s another important mission. Among the new disciples, one of them is a spy sent by Seven Murder Factions. You have to find out who he is. Yes, Venerable Lord. Does Venerable Lord want you to leave the mountain to learn? He said that I should travel… and accumulate some hands-on experience. Are you going alone? I’ll go with the other disciples. Is Shi Yi going? What about Qing Shui? What about me? – Do you want to come along? – Of course. You and Qing Shui are leaving. Shi Yi is leaving too. Why should I stay back on Mount Chang Liu? Of course I’m coming along to help and to take care of you. We’re going to uphold good and suppress evil in the journey, not going sightseeing. No one knows what will happen throughout the journey. I’m not powerful enough yet, so I can’t protect you. Be good, stay at Mount Chang Liu… – and wait for us to come home. – Bone, I’m not afraid. Bone, I’m not an official disciple of Chang Liu Sect. I am at most… your servant. Without you… and Shi Yi’s protection, what should I do if someone bullies me? Someone bullies you? I would be grateful if you don’t bully others. Be good and stay at Mount Chang Liu. I have an important mission for you. What is it? Take care of my master. When I’m not around, my master will be lonely at Heartless Hall. It’s such an important mission. Of course I have to assign it to you. Then… All right. Stop being upset. When I get back, I’ll bring you many beautiful… Beautiful clothes? As well as delicacies? That’s a deal. Please honor your promise. I’ll help you pack right away. I can try some delicacies soon. You’re departing tomorrow. Have you packed your luggage? Yes, Master. You’ve almost mastered Sky Ninth Technique. Most of the demons… are not your match. Thank you for your guidance. Remember this. You must listen to Shi Yi on the journey. Never wander around. Do you understand? Understood. There’s one more thing. These are Blood Clotting Flower… and Recovery Pills. Take them with you. If you injure yourself, you can use them. Thank you, Master. Master, you have to take care of yourself… when I’m not around. I know that I’ll bear huge responsibility on this trip, so I’ll do my best and I won’t embarrass you. All right, you’re leaving the mountain tomorrow. Rest early. Yes, Master.
