00:01:32.840 --> 00:01:35.120
=Episode 38=

00:01:35.200 --> 00:01:37.800
(Dream shattered cannot be undone,
grudges flow and fade)

00:01:38.280 --> 00:01:42.040
(House of Sunset Drizzle)

00:02:26.000 --> 00:02:26.880
Where is Wang Xiaoshi?

00:02:26.880 --> 00:02:27.480
He's inside.

00:02:28.400 --> 00:02:29.040
Sir!

00:02:30.880 --> 00:02:31.800
Mr. Su.

00:02:34.320 --> 00:02:36.280
Wuxie, Xiaoyao,

00:02:38.200 --> 00:02:39.760
it's good to see both of you

00:02:40.880 --> 00:02:41.680
while I'm still alive.

00:02:43.720 --> 00:02:44.760
I'm glad you're still alive.

00:02:45.880 --> 00:02:46.840
I'm glad you're still alive.

00:02:48.080 --> 00:02:48.720
As long as you're alive,

00:02:49.560 --> 00:02:52.240
we can avenge our fallen brethren.

00:02:55.560 --> 00:02:57.080
Don't forget our promise.

00:02:58.800 --> 00:03:00.240
"The fearless brings peace for many,

00:03:02.280 --> 00:03:03.920
but dies a death that's lonely."

00:03:08.680 --> 00:03:09.320
Let's go.

00:03:11.080 --> 00:03:13.080
We make for the House of Sunset Drizzle.

00:03:41.320 --> 00:03:42.000
Bai!

00:03:43.840 --> 00:03:44.760
It's time to let go!

00:03:44.840 --> 00:03:45.560
Let go of what?

00:03:46.120 --> 00:03:47.000
Your obsession.

00:03:47.720 --> 00:03:48.400
Never,

00:03:48.920 --> 00:03:50.200
and I don't want to!

00:03:53.840 --> 00:03:55.640
Don't throw your life away
for your obsession!

00:03:56.120 --> 00:03:57.000
At this point,

00:03:57.280 --> 00:03:58.840
there is nothing you can't let go of!

00:04:00.280 --> 00:04:01.840
Why should I let go?

00:04:09.120 --> 00:04:10.120
Back in Xiliu,

00:04:10.840 --> 00:04:12.400
you promised you'd fight by my side.

00:04:13.400 --> 00:04:14.360
But when you arrived in the Capital,

00:04:14.840 --> 00:04:16.120
when you met Su Mengzhen,

00:04:16.840 --> 00:04:17.840
you became his servant

00:04:18.600 --> 00:04:19.800
and forgot about our friendship!

00:04:20.160 --> 00:04:21.680
You'd even kill me for him now!

00:04:21.680 --> 00:04:22.880
You wish to take my life!

00:04:28.200 --> 00:04:29.400
If we had worked together,

00:04:31.160 --> 00:04:33.880
we would've had fame and glory.

00:04:35.520 --> 00:04:37.200
We can share

00:04:39.080 --> 00:04:40.800
everything I have now.

00:04:41.800 --> 00:04:42.400
Bai.

00:04:44.720 --> 00:04:46.000
You said you were worried

00:04:47.880 --> 00:04:49.160
that we'd be caged

00:04:50.280 --> 00:04:51.440
or stuck on a narrow passage,

00:04:52.280 --> 00:04:53.960
that we might fight until death

00:04:54.240 --> 00:04:55.680
or fight death together.

00:04:56.560 --> 00:04:58.240
But I want no part of your dominion!

00:04:59.000 --> 00:05:00.560
I only wish that we had never come here!

00:05:00.560 --> 00:05:01.560
It's too late!

00:05:02.880 --> 00:05:04.520
We can't turn back time.

00:05:14.880 --> 00:05:15.560
Little Rock?

00:05:16.000 --> 00:05:16.680
Cabbage?

00:05:18.040 --> 00:05:18.640
Wen Rou...

00:05:23.160 --> 00:05:24.080
I'm back.

00:05:29.760 --> 00:05:31.240
Someone else came back too.

00:05:50.600 --> 00:05:51.360
It's Mengzhen.

00:06:01.880 --> 00:06:02.480
Mengzhen!

00:06:17.480 --> 00:06:18.160
Mengzhen!

00:06:20.600 --> 00:06:21.880
I've waited long enough.

00:06:37.280 --> 00:06:38.320
Su Mengzhen.

00:06:39.280 --> 00:06:40.680
You're finally here.

00:06:51.760 --> 00:06:53.160
Take a look at yourself.

00:06:54.280 --> 00:06:55.880
You're like a living husk.

00:06:59.720 --> 00:07:00.360
Lei Chun.

00:07:02.480 --> 00:07:03.840
You are my wife.

00:07:05.160 --> 00:07:06.200
After all this time,

00:07:08.160 --> 00:07:10.400
you brought me nothing but a husk?

00:07:10.400 --> 00:07:12.600
When you thought
you had control over everything,

00:07:13.520 --> 00:07:14.880
that you enjoyed your glory,

00:07:15.360 --> 00:07:16.640
I took him in.

00:07:17.920 --> 00:07:19.080
I bet you never expected

00:07:19.680 --> 00:07:21.240
that the secret tunnel

00:07:21.600 --> 00:07:23.320
would lead to the Six Half Hall.

00:07:42.840 --> 00:07:43.640
Well,

00:07:45.720 --> 00:07:47.600
I must thank you for bringing him here.

00:07:49.440 --> 00:07:50.320
Su Mengzhen,

00:07:51.680 --> 00:07:53.480
it was such a shame
that I didn't kill you.

00:07:55.560 --> 00:07:57.440
It's not that you didn't try,

00:07:58.280 --> 00:07:59.960
you simply failed to kill me.

00:08:00.040 --> 00:08:00.840
Don't get so full of yourself.

00:08:01.320 --> 00:08:03.520
Be mindful of what you receive.

00:08:04.520 --> 00:08:05.400
Lei Chun

00:08:05.400 --> 00:08:06.720
is not the same anymore.

00:08:07.760 --> 00:08:09.280
She is the Chancellor's foster daughter.

00:08:12.000 --> 00:08:12.920
In my heart,

00:08:13.560 --> 00:08:14.720
she will always be the same.

00:08:16.800 --> 00:08:17.760
I can look past

00:08:18.480 --> 00:08:19.440
your betrayal.

00:08:20.320 --> 00:08:21.880
But you killed my brethren and friends.

00:08:22.680 --> 00:08:23.280
For that,

00:08:24.480 --> 00:08:25.600
I must make you pay.

00:08:26.640 --> 00:08:28.360
Wang Xiaoshi has met His Majesty.

00:08:29.200 --> 00:08:31.120
The Chancellor might already be in trouble.

00:08:32.920 --> 00:08:33.800
Bai Choufei.

00:08:35.040 --> 00:08:36.280
You're just a spent pawn.

00:08:49.400 --> 00:08:50.160
Little Rock.

00:08:50.600 --> 00:08:51.880
You've talked to His Majesty.

00:08:52.640 --> 00:08:53.400
It seems

00:08:55.040 --> 00:08:56.080
kidnapping Wen Rou

00:08:56.840 --> 00:08:57.920
and using that dispatch order

00:08:59.320 --> 00:09:00.240
were a waste of time.

00:09:01.800 --> 00:09:03.360
Having control over one's life and death

00:09:04.840 --> 00:09:06.160
is too easy in the martial arts world.

00:09:07.320 --> 00:09:08.280
I didn't understand it back then,

00:09:09.320 --> 00:09:10.760
but I get it now.

00:09:14.840 --> 00:09:16.120
We took an oath together

00:09:16.600 --> 00:09:18.280
and became sworn brothers.

00:09:19.920 --> 00:09:21.600
But in the end,
you tried to kill Mengzhen,

00:09:21.800 --> 00:09:22.840
and I tried to kill you.

00:09:24.760 --> 00:09:26.920
The martial arts world
shaped us into what we are.

00:09:34.680 --> 00:09:35.360
Bai.

00:09:37.240 --> 00:09:38.280
Mengzhen is back.

00:09:40.640 --> 00:09:41.480
You lost.

00:09:44.360 --> 00:09:45.240
Give up now.

00:09:46.480 --> 00:09:47.400
You want me to give up?

00:09:47.800 --> 00:09:48.720
How do I give up?

00:09:49.400 --> 00:09:50.880
Do you want me to kneel before you?

00:09:52.200 --> 00:09:52.840
Is that what you want?

00:10:14.680 --> 00:10:15.320
Little Rock.

00:10:18.040 --> 00:10:19.160
As long as I live,

00:10:21.200 --> 00:10:22.520
I can still win.

00:11:00.920 --> 00:11:02.000
Why didn't you do it?

00:11:03.120 --> 00:11:04.280
He accidentally

00:11:04.280 --> 00:11:05.760
hurt his loved one with this sword.

00:11:06.960 --> 00:11:07.800
He spent his life in regret.

00:11:10.000 --> 00:11:10.960
Before he passed on,

00:11:11.920 --> 00:11:13.680
he made one side of the sword blunt.

00:11:15.000 --> 00:11:17.160
He wanted the future wielders of the sword

00:11:18.040 --> 00:11:19.120
can show mercy.

00:11:20.280 --> 00:11:21.840
To retain the world and its people,

00:11:22.560 --> 00:11:24.120
to retain the times and you.

00:11:26.320 --> 00:11:27.560
I'm the wielder of Retainment.

00:11:29.200 --> 00:11:30.280
I have a heart of retainment.

00:11:32.560 --> 00:11:33.960
I want you to live.

00:11:57.640 --> 00:11:58.520
This...

00:12:01.840 --> 00:12:03.040
is for our brothers.

00:12:11.840 --> 00:12:12.800
We are even now.

00:12:20.040 --> 00:12:21.000
From now on,

00:12:22.920 --> 00:12:23.760
consider

00:12:28.400 --> 00:12:29.840
we had never met each other.

00:14:16.800 --> 00:14:18.520
You are the House Master of Sunset Drizzle.

00:14:19.840 --> 00:14:20.720
I've brought you home.

00:14:26.760 --> 00:14:28.560
We fought by each other's side,

00:14:29.360 --> 00:14:31.040
but now we tried
to take each other's life.

00:14:32.600 --> 00:14:34.120
Nothing is the same now.

00:14:38.760 --> 00:14:39.800
I failed.

00:14:41.600 --> 00:14:42.920
The monster he has become

00:14:44.120 --> 00:14:45.720
proves that I have failed.

00:14:47.680 --> 00:14:48.720
Before my father passed on,

00:14:50.480 --> 00:14:51.400
he told me

00:14:51.800 --> 00:14:52.760
that I should use Bai Choufei

00:14:53.240 --> 00:14:54.640
for my plot for revenge.

00:14:56.720 --> 00:14:58.480
But Bai Choufei got too ambitious.

00:14:59.560 --> 00:15:01.160
I fell prey to my own scheme.

00:15:03.360 --> 00:15:04.520
In the martial arts world,

00:15:05.280 --> 00:15:06.880
he has dozens of aliases

00:15:07.480 --> 00:15:08.840
and failed numerous times.

00:15:09.480 --> 00:15:10.400
It took time and effort

00:15:11.000 --> 00:15:13.080
for him to get to the top.

00:15:16.880 --> 00:15:18.120
Those in power

00:15:18.960 --> 00:15:20.200
can't afford any failures.

00:15:21.560 --> 00:15:22.400
But tonight,

00:15:24.800 --> 00:15:25.800
there is no winner.

00:15:36.760 --> 00:15:37.800
After tonight,

00:15:39.400 --> 00:15:41.200
the martial arts world
will no longer need you.

00:15:43.320 --> 00:15:44.480
You took the medicine.

00:15:46.120 --> 00:15:47.680
You must never disobey me

00:15:48.600 --> 00:15:50.200
or break my heart again.

00:15:52.400 --> 00:15:54.120
We can be together forever.

00:16:06.600 --> 00:16:11.400
At first, I intended to conquer the world.

00:16:13.400 --> 00:16:18.600
But I had no choice
but to hide under the dirt.

00:16:22.320 --> 00:16:24.000
I dreamt of ruling the world,

00:16:26.720 --> 00:16:31.120
but I had no choice
but to wait for a chance.

00:16:31.840 --> 00:16:38.240
At first, I intended
to conquer the world

00:16:38.520 --> 00:16:44.680
But I had no choice
but to hide under the dirt

00:16:45.160 --> 00:16:52.520
I dreamt of ruling the world, but I
had no choice but to wait for a chance

00:16:52.720 --> 00:16:58.280
Reaching the peak is difficult,
a path filled with thorns

00:16:58.400 --> 00:17:04.960
I wanted to quit
the martial arts world

00:17:05.240 --> 00:17:11.520
But I cannot come
to terms with the time I had wasted

00:17:11.880 --> 00:17:15.040
Trying to be complacent

00:17:15.200 --> 00:17:18.800
Trying to win fame and fortune

00:17:18.920 --> 00:17:25.480
Wielding absolute power
and standing out in the world

00:17:25.600 --> 00:17:28.000
If I wanted to be a hero

00:17:28.280 --> 00:17:31.960
Drifting about and sparring
with living beings don't matter to me

00:17:32.120 --> 00:17:38.440
When I swing my sword,
nations will fall and tides will rise

00:17:38.840 --> 00:17:41.320
I'm a reckless person
who only wants to reach the sky

00:17:41.440 --> 00:17:45.720
The chaotic world
cannot do anything to me

00:17:45.920 --> 00:17:49.520
Even when my lips are bleeding,
I put on a contemptuous smile

00:17:49.640 --> 00:17:53.440
My lofty aspirations are to have glory

00:17:54.600 --> 00:17:56.520
and fame.

00:17:56.560 --> 00:17:58.720
I would rather drink
and fight with all I have

00:17:59.040 --> 00:18:03.520
A mistake became an eternal regret.

00:18:03.560 --> 00:18:05.400
Have my name known throughout the world,
admired by all beings before I die

00:18:05.480 --> 00:18:08.720
My lofty aspirations
are too huge for me to sigh

00:18:08.840 --> 00:18:10.480
Ignoring worldly affairs
and focusing on success

00:18:10.520 --> 00:18:12.360
I'd rather die with dignity

00:18:14.800 --> 00:18:18.200
than live in silence.

00:18:31.200 --> 00:18:33.400
(I'll be the brightest
fire striker in the night.)

00:18:34.840 --> 00:18:36.480
(Together, we can break the wall.)

00:18:38.440 --> 00:18:40.000
(I'll bring order
to the martial arts world.)

00:18:41.480 --> 00:18:43.680
(Yes, I want to fly!)

00:19:28.880 --> 00:19:30.120
It hurts.

00:19:35.840 --> 00:19:37.320
It hurts.

00:19:43.760 --> 00:19:45.720
I thought the worst thing to happen to me

00:19:47.240 --> 00:19:48.480
was not having you.

00:19:50.080 --> 00:19:51.720
But what pains me even more

00:19:53.000 --> 00:19:54.200
is that you're not happy.

00:19:57.880 --> 00:20:00.840
Kill me.

00:21:04.600 --> 00:21:07.440
(House of Sunset Drizzle)

00:21:39.320 --> 00:21:40.320
Is he dead?

00:21:42.160 --> 00:21:43.120
He's dead.

00:21:49.480 --> 00:21:50.640
Is he dead?

00:21:53.680 --> 00:21:54.640
He's dead.

00:22:02.160 --> 00:22:03.320
Is he dead?

00:22:15.440 --> 00:22:16.000
Sir...

00:22:41.440 --> 00:22:42.920
When I first returned to the Capital,

00:22:44.320 --> 00:22:46.240
my only family was taken from me.

00:22:49.240 --> 00:22:50.760
Death had taken my father,

00:22:52.480 --> 00:22:54.320
but life brought me my two brothers.

00:22:55.600 --> 00:22:56.480
In hindsight,

00:22:57.440 --> 00:22:59.120
the happiest time of my life

00:23:00.760 --> 00:23:03.240
was the time I spent with my brothers.

00:23:16.240 --> 00:23:17.000
Xiaoshi,

00:23:18.240 --> 00:23:18.880
thank you.

00:23:22.840 --> 00:23:23.920
Our men

00:23:25.920 --> 00:23:27.400
are in your care now.

00:23:38.280 --> 00:23:38.920
Chun.

00:23:40.000 --> 00:23:40.920
Sorry.

00:23:41.840 --> 00:23:42.840
I broke every promise

00:23:43.640 --> 00:23:45.000
I'd ever made to you.

00:23:47.360 --> 00:23:48.120
Even now,

00:23:48.800 --> 00:23:50.040
I still can't go with you.

00:23:50.880 --> 00:23:51.720
Forget about me.

00:23:52.320 --> 00:23:53.440
Start a new life.

00:23:54.440 --> 00:23:57.520
Be who you were born to be.

00:23:58.240 --> 00:23:59.200
Don't you forget

00:24:00.400 --> 00:24:01.440
our promise.

00:24:05.000 --> 00:24:09.680
(House of Sunset Drizzle)

00:24:19.320 --> 00:24:20.320
Choufei is gone.

00:24:20.880 --> 00:24:22.400
It's my turn next.

00:24:24.840 --> 00:24:25.520
Mengzhen?

00:24:25.880 --> 00:24:26.760
My life

00:24:27.680 --> 00:24:29.080
has been less than meaningful.

00:24:29.800 --> 00:24:30.880
Don't be saddened by my passing.

00:24:32.960 --> 00:24:34.520
The fearless brings peace for many,

00:24:35.440 --> 00:24:37.200
but dies a death that's lonely.

00:24:41.920 --> 00:24:42.640
Wuxie!

00:24:43.480 --> 00:24:44.280
Do it!

00:25:04.160 --> 00:25:06.200
Why did you do it?

00:25:06.200 --> 00:25:09.000
Why?

00:25:11.720 --> 00:25:13.360
Why?

00:25:13.760 --> 00:25:14.640
"The fearless brings peace for many,

00:25:15.800 --> 00:25:17.280
but dies a death that's lonely."

00:25:18.520 --> 00:25:22.360
That was the signal
for me to take his life.

00:25:24.200 --> 00:25:25.760
Brother...

00:25:31.600 --> 00:25:33.160
Brother...

00:26:28.920 --> 00:26:30.520
Su Mengzhen.

00:26:30.960 --> 00:26:31.680
Bai Choufei.

00:26:31.840 --> 00:26:32.520
Wang Xiaoshi.

00:26:33.160 --> 00:26:34.400
(We are hereby sworn brothers.)

00:26:34.880 --> 00:26:36.760
(We shall fight and live as one.)

00:26:37.000 --> 00:26:39.200
(We entrust each other with our lives.)

00:26:39.400 --> 00:26:41.720
(Any who breaks this oath
shall face divine punishment.)

00:26:49.120 --> 00:26:51.040
(Yang)

00:26:53.840 --> 00:26:56.320
(House of Sunset Drizzle)

00:27:21.680 --> 00:27:22.520
Mr. Su...

00:27:25.160 --> 00:27:26.400
Farewell.

00:27:58.240 --> 00:27:59.240
An important decree.

00:27:59.760 --> 00:28:02.880
"I had no choice
but to cleanse the Imperial Court

00:28:03.120 --> 00:28:04.240
and eradicate the treacherous officials.

00:28:05.040 --> 00:28:07.400
That is to uphold
the code of the ancestors

00:28:07.480 --> 00:28:09.040
and the way of heaven.

00:28:09.480 --> 00:28:12.600
Chancellor Cai Jin shall be

00:28:12.880 --> 00:28:14.440
stripped of his title and ranks.

00:28:14.640 --> 00:28:16.120
He will be banished as a peasant

00:28:16.360 --> 00:28:17.880
and exiled to the border frontier.

00:28:18.040 --> 00:28:20.040
He shall never return to the Capital."

00:28:31.600 --> 00:28:32.520
(For some reason,)

00:28:33.120 --> 00:28:34.400
(I've felt anxious today.)

00:28:35.520 --> 00:28:37.440
(Father has never seen eye to eye)

00:28:37.720 --> 00:28:39.040
(with the House of Sunset Drizzle.)

00:28:39.720 --> 00:28:41.560
(This contention mustn't go on.)

00:28:42.320 --> 00:28:45.280
(I wonder if Mengzhen is worried too?)

00:28:46.760 --> 00:28:48.840
(It's been three months
since we last met.)

00:28:49.600 --> 00:28:50.880
(This is the third time)

00:28:51.000 --> 00:28:53.120
(we've been apart for so long.)

00:28:54.160 --> 00:28:55.520
(Today at the dried fruit store,)

00:28:55.880 --> 00:28:58.440
(Mengzhen bought me bags of plums.)

00:28:59.040 --> 00:29:00.800
(He said when he saw me eat the plums,)

00:29:01.240 --> 00:29:02.360
(they didn't taste sour.)

00:29:02.840 --> 00:29:03.800
(It made him feel happy.)

00:29:05.760 --> 00:29:07.560
(Today, I lied to Di for the first time.)

00:29:08.440 --> 00:29:10.640
(I brought him
to the most bustling street.)

00:29:11.520 --> 00:29:13.440
(When he was browsing for a comb,)

00:29:13.520 --> 00:29:14.600
(I sneaked away.)

00:29:16.080 --> 00:29:17.400
(When I was about
to reach the chess parlor,)

00:29:18.320 --> 00:29:20.120
(I ran into someone dressed in red.)

00:29:20.920 --> 00:29:21.600
(It was heartwarming.)

00:29:22.560 --> 00:29:25.400
(He was my entire world.)

00:29:27.280 --> 00:29:28.840
(It's getting merry out there.)

00:29:29.000 --> 00:29:29.960
(Festive decorations were everywhere.)

00:29:31.000 --> 00:29:32.760
(The daughter of the Li family
was getting married.)

00:29:33.600 --> 00:29:35.040
(There was percussion
music along the way.)

00:29:35.480 --> 00:29:37.720
(Things only quiet down after nightfall.)

00:29:39.120 --> 00:29:41.880
(Mengzhen said he'd let everyone in the Capital)

00:29:41.960 --> 00:29:43.840
(know of our wedding.)

00:29:44.600 --> 00:29:46.640
(The wedding would be three days long.)

00:29:47.960 --> 00:29:51.400
(We sat on the roof,
chatting and fantasizing.)

00:29:51.920 --> 00:29:53.280
(That felt great.)

00:29:54.360 --> 00:29:56.400
(It was as though time had stopped)

00:29:56.680 --> 00:29:57.960
(and we had the world to ourselves.)

00:30:00.160 --> 00:30:01.320
(When we parted ways today,)

00:30:01.880 --> 00:30:03.680
(I noticed a zit on Mengzhen's face.)

00:30:04.600 --> 00:30:05.720
(It was under his left eye.)

00:30:06.120 --> 00:30:07.160
(It almost looked like a mole.)

00:30:09.680 --> 00:30:11.400
(We could never have enough time,)

00:30:12.520 --> 00:30:13.720
(and time flies like an arrow.)

00:30:15.280 --> 00:30:16.400
(But I like that.)

00:30:16.960 --> 00:30:18.200
(I'll grow up)

00:30:18.640 --> 00:30:20.000
(and someday,)

00:30:20.040 --> 00:30:22.200
(I can wake up with Mengzhen
right next to me every morning.)

00:30:23.240 --> 00:30:25.120
(I can't wait for that day to come.)

00:30:29.000 --> 00:30:30.680
(Wuxie sent a letter yesterday.)

00:30:31.760 --> 00:30:34.440
(Mengzhen asked to meet me
at the chess parlor tomorrow.)

00:30:35.680 --> 00:30:36.320
(I'm excited.)

00:30:38.720 --> 00:30:40.040
(We'll meet again)

00:30:40.040 --> 00:30:40.960
(in mere hours.)

00:30:42.600 --> 00:30:44.120
(I can't help but smile a little.)

00:30:45.760 --> 00:30:49.920
(Mengzhen is probably
thinking about me too.)

00:31:31.080 --> 00:31:32.560
To retain the world and its people,

00:31:33.480 --> 00:31:34.960
to retain the times and you.

00:31:37.120 --> 00:31:38.560
At the end of our journey,

00:31:40.560 --> 00:31:42.280
there is nothing I could save.

00:32:08.000 --> 00:32:08.840
You still have me.

00:32:09.600 --> 00:32:10.760
I'll never leave you.

00:32:12.000 --> 00:32:13.040
Whatever the future holds for us,

00:32:14.360 --> 00:32:15.320
I'll be there for you.

00:32:19.160 --> 00:32:20.000
Xiaoshi.

00:32:21.800 --> 00:32:23.120
Bid your brothers farewell.

00:32:31.400 --> 00:32:32.600
The past can't be undone,

00:32:33.760 --> 00:32:35.160
so strive for a better future.

00:32:35.840 --> 00:32:36.960
The will of the fallen

00:32:37.880 --> 00:32:38.920
must never be forgotten.

00:32:39.680 --> 00:32:40.680
Vengeance

00:32:42.120 --> 00:32:43.400
must be served!

00:32:49.120 --> 00:32:52.680
With whom do I visit this restaurant?

00:32:52.920 --> 00:32:56.480
The moonlit hall stands
within the clouds

00:32:57.320 --> 00:33:00.880
With whom do I ride my horse?

00:33:01.120 --> 00:33:04.680
The snow has blanched our attire

00:33:05.520 --> 00:33:09.000
In whom can I confide?

00:33:09.080 --> 00:33:09.880
Mengzhen!

00:33:09.920 --> 00:33:10.960
It's hard enough to find a true friend

00:33:10.960 --> 00:33:11.760
Choufei!

00:33:13.280 --> 00:33:14.360
Farewell!

00:33:14.400 --> 00:33:16.080
With whom do I drink?

00:33:16.120 --> 00:33:17.120
Farewell!

00:33:18.040 --> 00:33:20.480
Farewell, House Master!

00:33:20.520 --> 00:33:22.080
And who will tell me chug more?

00:33:22.640 --> 00:33:23.920
Don't tell me

00:33:24.080 --> 00:33:27.600
It's impossible,
that sentiments go in a blink of an eye

00:33:27.920 --> 00:33:31.600
That to stay out of it is
like an unreachable dream

00:33:31.680 --> 00:33:33.320
I'm glad to have you accompany me
on my journey

00:33:33.440 --> 00:33:35.680
Begone, the thick evening mist

00:33:35.800 --> 00:33:39.120
We weathered through the storms

00:33:39.200 --> 00:33:40.200
Don't tell me

00:33:40.440 --> 00:33:43.880
It's impossible,
that time will always move on

00:33:44.200 --> 00:33:47.880
That the wish to leave behind a legacy
is just a wishful thinking

00:33:48.080 --> 00:33:52.280
I will find it, I will pierce through
the layers of fog

00:33:52.560 --> 00:33:56.840
I will not allow my life to be wasted

00:33:59.200 --> 00:34:10.560
(Eminence of Heavy Bearer)

00:34:10.640 --> 00:34:11.000
(Zhuoying Pavilion)

00:34:11.040 --> 00:34:11.600
Martial Uncle.

00:34:12.000 --> 00:34:12.520
Official Liu.

00:34:13.200 --> 00:34:13.920
Xiaoshi?

00:34:14.200 --> 00:34:15.000
Everything is in order.

00:34:20.280 --> 00:34:20.920
You flatter me.

00:34:22.480 --> 00:34:25.240
You saved the country and the people.

00:34:25.640 --> 00:34:26.360
You deserve our respect.

00:34:27.280 --> 00:34:28.360
Chancellor Cai is no more.

00:34:28.800 --> 00:34:31.280
His Majesty will eradicate
his associates soon.

00:34:33.080 --> 00:34:33.880
But,

00:34:35.440 --> 00:34:36.360
are you really leaving?

00:34:36.360 --> 00:34:36.960
Yes.

00:34:38.080 --> 00:34:38.960
The world is vast.

00:34:40.280 --> 00:34:41.800
There are many places I haven't been to.

00:34:43.000 --> 00:34:44.000
I want to travel.

00:34:44.760 --> 00:34:46.280
But the House of Sunset Drizzle

00:34:46.640 --> 00:34:47.920
needs a leader.

00:34:48.600 --> 00:34:50.960
You are the perfect person for that job.

00:34:51.080 --> 00:34:53.080
I'm the worst leader they could have.

00:34:53.720 --> 00:34:54.560
I even burned my sword.

00:34:54.800 --> 00:34:56.200
The past

00:34:57.200 --> 00:34:58.400
is but a distant memory.

00:34:59.360 --> 00:34:59.960
Martial Uncle.

00:35:01.160 --> 00:35:02.960
Let me be a free drifter.

00:35:03.880 --> 00:35:04.440
Very well.

00:35:05.920 --> 00:35:07.440
I can recommend a candidate.

00:35:08.200 --> 00:35:09.640
He will be a great leader.

00:35:11.120 --> 00:35:11.800
Who is it?

00:35:12.080 --> 00:35:13.000
I wrote him a letter.

00:35:13.800 --> 00:35:15.600
I trust his skill and character.

00:35:16.680 --> 00:35:17.960
He will arrive soon.

00:35:18.600 --> 00:35:21.000
You can decide if he is fit to lead.

00:35:22.720 --> 00:35:23.160
Very well.

00:35:26.320 --> 00:35:26.880
Sirs,

00:35:27.760 --> 00:35:30.560
this is where I bid you goodbye.

00:35:31.040 --> 00:35:31.600
Xiaoshi.

00:35:33.880 --> 00:35:34.680
Take care.

00:35:35.120 --> 00:35:35.880
Take care.

00:35:42.000 --> 00:35:43.720
(Eminence of Heavy Bearer)

00:35:49.640 --> 00:35:52.080
This boy is a true hero.

00:35:53.400 --> 00:35:56.680
He is one of a kind.

00:36:10.880 --> 00:36:12.720
Chancellor.

00:36:20.400 --> 00:36:21.560
There are some issues.

00:36:22.400 --> 00:36:23.760
I must leave my post for now.

00:36:24.720 --> 00:36:25.640
Is there anyone

00:36:27.040 --> 00:36:29.280
willing to be my liaison

00:36:29.640 --> 00:36:30.840
with the Imperial Court?

00:36:31.920 --> 00:36:32.800
But...

00:36:34.120 --> 00:36:36.120
We are willing to serve you.

00:36:43.080 --> 00:36:43.680
Report!

00:36:46.280 --> 00:36:47.880
Advisor, a letter from Wang Xiaoshi.

00:36:54.160 --> 00:36:55.240
(Chou Shi House)

00:36:55.240 --> 00:36:56.160
(I was once told)

00:36:57.240 --> 00:36:58.560
(that the end of the path)

00:36:59.520 --> 00:37:00.720
(was only big enough for one.)

00:37:02.080 --> 00:37:03.840
(Only the victor can live.)

00:37:04.800 --> 00:37:06.000
(But I disagree.)

00:37:08.280 --> 00:37:09.640
(The world is vast)

00:37:10.120 --> 00:37:11.240
(and full of possibilities.)

00:37:12.760 --> 00:37:13.880
(Whether it's the House,)

00:37:14.400 --> 00:37:15.400
(the Trunk Tower,)

00:37:16.200 --> 00:37:17.560
(or a rural town,)

00:37:18.640 --> 00:37:20.400
(they are all parts of the journey.)

00:37:23.120 --> 00:37:24.000
(I took a stop.)

00:37:25.120 --> 00:37:26.280
(I must now move on.)

00:37:29.320 --> 00:37:30.160
(My friends,)

00:37:31.760 --> 00:37:32.640
(take care.)

00:38:26.040 --> 00:38:30.560
(Silence and no intrusion)

00:38:48.240 --> 00:38:49.320
You two, dismissed.

00:38:49.760 --> 00:38:50.680
I must have a word with him.

00:38:51.520 --> 00:38:52.360
Yes.

00:39:11.560 --> 00:39:12.560
Wang Xiaoshi.

00:39:14.640 --> 00:39:15.880
I've heard about you.

00:39:17.720 --> 00:39:20.400
The people think you're a revered hero.

00:39:22.240 --> 00:39:24.040
Every man dies eventually.

00:39:25.600 --> 00:39:27.400
The only thing
that remains revered forever

00:39:28.200 --> 00:39:28.880
isn't a man

00:39:29.880 --> 00:39:31.120
or a hero.

00:39:34.720 --> 00:39:35.560
It's power.

00:39:47.880 --> 00:39:49.000
Chancellor Cai has power.

00:39:50.280 --> 00:39:52.520
I can strip him of his title and ranks,

00:39:53.000 --> 00:39:54.080
but even if he's at

00:39:54.400 --> 00:39:55.880
the edge of the world,

00:39:56.280 --> 00:39:57.800
as soon as he says the word,

00:39:57.880 --> 00:39:59.600
a dozen of officers

00:39:59.600 --> 00:40:00.880
will say the same thing.

00:40:02.200 --> 00:40:03.400
A revered figure indeed.

00:40:07.240 --> 00:40:08.320
Over time,

00:40:09.600 --> 00:40:10.720
the Imperial Court

00:40:11.400 --> 00:40:12.400
could be

00:40:12.400 --> 00:40:14.680
doing Chancellor Cai's bidding

00:40:15.400 --> 00:40:18.000
or perhaps they truly
want to serve the nation.

00:40:19.720 --> 00:40:21.360
I can't say for sure now.

00:40:29.000 --> 00:40:31.240
You deliver me a document.

00:40:33.680 --> 00:40:34.880
What good does it do?

00:41:11.400 --> 00:41:12.760
You came alone?

00:41:13.800 --> 00:41:14.880
Have you thought of the consequences?

00:41:15.680 --> 00:41:16.840
I didn't come alone.

00:41:17.760 --> 00:41:18.720
My brothers and I

00:41:20.080 --> 00:41:20.880
are here to take your life.

00:41:50.680 --> 00:41:51.560
My name is Wang Xiaoshi.

00:41:52.840 --> 00:41:54.360
I killed the treacherous Chancellor Cai.

00:41:57.280 --> 00:41:58.040
Arrest me if you will.

00:42:03.400 --> 00:42:04.720
I, Swordsman of Awe Xi Liantian,

00:42:05.640 --> 00:42:06.840
will escort you to safety.

00:42:07.160 --> 00:42:08.240
The Blade of Zhang Ba, Luo Wuxia,

00:42:08.520 --> 00:42:09.720
will escort you to safety.

00:42:10.320 --> 00:42:11.400
I, Mountain Cleaver Yin Shengxue,

00:42:11.800 --> 00:42:13.160
will escort you to safety.

00:42:14.080 --> 00:42:15.360
I, He Zezhong of Vengeance,

00:42:15.640 --> 00:42:16.720
will escort you to safety.

00:42:17.320 --> 00:42:21.080
We will escort you to safety.

00:42:23.880 --> 00:42:25.880
Has any of you seen
Chancellor Cai's murderer?

00:42:27.320 --> 00:42:28.000
No.

00:42:29.720 --> 00:42:30.880
Start searching now!

00:42:32.280 --> 00:42:32.800
Let's go.

00:42:32.880 --> 00:42:33.400
Let's go.

00:42:49.280 --> 00:42:49.880
Warriors.

00:42:54.400 --> 00:42:55.160
Thank you.

00:43:12.880 --> 00:43:13.600
What's wrong?

00:43:13.840 --> 00:43:15.000
I came for you.

00:43:15.320 --> 00:43:16.720
The others followed.

00:43:17.080 --> 00:43:18.080
I can't do a thing about that.

00:43:19.120 --> 00:43:20.240
What is that supposed to mean?

00:43:20.560 --> 00:43:22.360
This is only temporary.

00:43:22.600 --> 00:43:23.040
That's right.

00:43:23.680 --> 00:43:24.880
It's just a trip together.

00:43:25.160 --> 00:43:26.160
If you two take off

00:43:26.160 --> 00:43:27.160
and be on your merry way,

00:43:27.400 --> 00:43:28.360
no one will stop you.

00:43:30.240 --> 00:43:31.040
Where are you going?

00:43:31.760 --> 00:43:33.360
You wouldn't be the next House Master.

00:43:34.080 --> 00:43:35.560
I can't stay in the House anymore.

00:43:35.880 --> 00:43:36.760
I figure

00:43:37.640 --> 00:43:38.640
I should travel.

00:43:39.000 --> 00:43:40.080
You gave up Retainment.

00:43:40.160 --> 00:43:41.400
The advisor is no fighter.

00:43:41.640 --> 00:43:43.840
You need people to
keep you safe on the path.

00:43:43.840 --> 00:43:45.000
The world is vast

00:43:45.280 --> 00:43:46.280
and full of possibilities.

00:43:46.640 --> 00:43:48.800
We'd like to widen our views.

00:43:49.560 --> 00:43:50.120
Sure.

00:43:50.800 --> 00:43:51.360
Let's go.

00:43:51.640 --> 00:43:52.400
Let's go.

00:44:06.920 --> 00:44:09.640
Regardless of the length of my journey

00:44:10.040 --> 00:44:12.400
Or how intertwined our fate is

00:44:13.280 --> 00:44:15.040
As I climb countless mountains

00:44:15.240 --> 00:44:17.800
Will I find my answer?

00:44:19.160 --> 00:44:21.720
I gaze upon the dark night

00:44:22.320 --> 00:44:24.640
My sword to the sky, the moon shines

00:44:25.000 --> 00:44:27.280
Blood has tarnished the sand dunes

00:44:27.560 --> 00:44:30.200
I try to brush it off

00:44:30.880 --> 00:44:33.240
Feud and vendetta,
they go as quickly as they come

00:44:33.520 --> 00:44:36.360
Life or death is decided within seconds
so why care about the outcome?

00:44:36.880 --> 00:44:39.560
Life is like a tide and we,
the current

00:44:39.680 --> 00:44:41.720
Who can come out unscathed?

00:44:42.640 --> 00:44:45.320
Right or wrong

00:44:45.560 --> 00:44:48.320
There's no turning back

00:44:48.400 --> 00:44:51.640
To him I go

00:44:51.880 --> 00:44:54.880
I will not head back

00:44:55.160 --> 00:44:57.640
A thousand pots of wine

00:44:58.120 --> 00:45:00.600
A million aftertastes

00:45:01.080 --> 00:45:03.760
Let's chug it

00:45:04.600 --> 00:45:07.360
To what we have been through!

00:45:09.120 --> 00:45:11.520
Oh, this burning ambition, but the end
of my journey is still far away

00:45:12.040 --> 00:45:14.840
Yet it never dies away,
I will chase after my dream

00:45:15.280 --> 00:45:17.600
The towering waves try to stop me

00:45:18.280 --> 00:45:20.920
But I have my faith, adamancy is my name

00:45:21.480 --> 00:45:24.200
Regardless of the length of my journey

00:45:27.800 --> 00:45:33.280
Or how intertwined our fate is

00:45:44.960 --> 00:45:53.760
(House of Sunset Drizzle)

00:45:54.320 --> 00:45:54.880
Who is it?

00:45:55.120 --> 00:45:56.360
This is the House of Sunset Drizzle.

00:45:56.480 --> 00:45:57.840
You are not allowed to be here.

00:45:57.880 --> 00:46:00.360
(Honor of Deshao)

00:46:00.800 --> 00:46:02.560
I am Qi Shaoshang.

00:46:04.040 --> 00:46:05.480
(Order)

00:46:09.160 --> 00:46:09.800
House Master!

00:46:09.840 --> 00:46:12.680
(House of Sunset Drizzle)
