[Sword Dynasty]

[Episode 23]

If the revenge is too difficult to do,

let's just give it up.

Perhaps

we can be like how we were before coming to Fengming.

Find a secluded place

and live out the rest of our lives in peace.

Have I made you feel unsafe?

No.

It's because the closer I get to the target,

the more I lose the motivational energy that I used to have.

Lately, I've been thinking,

we've done so much,

but is it all worth it?

The closer we get to the end,

we will lose even more.

Don't worry.

I will definitely consider this matter.

Alright?

Let's not talk about it anymore.

You've finally reached this far.

I shouldn't talk about these things.

I knew that

you would definitely come.

But just now, I still

thought somewhat that you might not come.

It seems that Sect Master doesn't understand me enough.

It's not that I don't understand you,

but it's just that you and that person are too alike.

Enough. You go ahead.

The Heavenly Replenishing Divine Art is hidden at the end of the mountain cave in front of us.

However, I should remind you

that the path to it is very long.

It is also accompanied by toxic fume that can cause delusions.

How does it create delusions?

It could be light, or strong.

You should still remember

the tune that Liuli played to lead you to the mountain?

The zither's sound was like a sward that could pierce the heart.

If you held any distracting thoughts, your core energy would be in a mess

and all your senses would be lost.

Eventually you'd be diverted into obsession.

The effect of the toxic fume

is like that zither's sound.

At least the zither's sound is man-made, and you can counter it with your strength.

But the toxic fume is from nature, and can easily enter the body

to cause chaos among your senses.

No wonder those famous people don't want to come here.

It's because they can't face what's really in their heart.

Ding Ning.

If you are someone with few desires and wants,

I wouldn't have to remind you.

Enough now. If you've really thought it through,

then go on ahead.

Ding Ning.

Little Auntie, can you hurry up?

You women just take up time.

Ding Ning, call me Little Aunt.

We'll be living here from now on.

If you are so worried about him, you should have kept him here.

Oh yes. When did Ding Ning

start getting Irreversible Fiery Yang?

He already had it when we met.

It's probably a hidden illness from the womb.

Is he really Liang Jingmeng's descendant?

Yes.

He can tell you a lot of things about Liang Jingmen in the past.

I've known him for such a long time,

and the only thing that I can be certain of

is that he inherited the Nine-Death Silkworm Divine Art.

Let go of your hands.

Nine-Death Silkworm Divine Art?

Then, as the heir to Nine-Death Silkworm Divine Art, he can use it?

Have you heard about the death of Song Shenshu in Fengming?

Ding Ning did it.

But I clearly remember that

Nine-Death Silkworm Divine Art cannot be passed down.

Enough. Let's not talk about this anymore.

I want to ask you about something.

Why are you bringing Ding Ning along with you to revenge against Yuang Wu?

When I first met Ding Ning, he was already different from anyone else.

His intelligence, strategic mind,

and even his knowledge far exceed what he should have.

Since I decided to keep him with me,

it meant that this road wouldn't be easygoing.

Then let me ask you another question.

When did you decide to revenge against Yuan Wu?

From the day we first met,

we started on this road.

This is really funny in a way.

We are drinking tea here, but all we talk about

is the person we knew ten years ago.

This person is also

someone that was very unlikable.

During that battle way back when, he was killed by the King of Heng.

Actually, what really made him lose hope

and gave up his fight

was Ye Zhen's betrayal.

Jingmeng.

Ye Zhen!

Only you die, will the Ba Mountain disciples live.

Liang Jingmen, you have offended His Majesty.

Do you know your crime?

It is very funny.

He used to view her as his life.

If he didn't so easily believe Ye Zhen,

he wouldn't have walked into the King of Heng's trap.

Ba Mountain Sword Academy

also wouldn't have been destroyed.

For a woman,

the entire Ba Mountain Sword Academy was destroyed.

This kind of wrongdoing deserves death and more.

It's already happened,

and he probably couldn't predict all those happenings.

It's because he was stubborn and obstinate.

I reminded him at the time.

Ye Zhen's identity was suspicious.

But him? He wouldn't listen at all.

Who is Ye Zhen?

She was a woman sent from Xiao Zhong County,

a ruthless killer who was trained in toxic practices

Could she give him her true heart?

It's such a shame. Our top swordsman

was stupid in loyalty and kindness.

Ye Zhen came with a mission?

Why?

These years, Xiao Zhong County

has been rising supported by the Queen's power.

I think she came to pursue power.

That makes her even more heinous.

Liang Jingmeng was true to her,

but she betrayed her lover.

But why don't you say

Yuan Wu betrayed his brother?

Yuan Wu killed my whole family. I would not dare to forget.

Back then, I advised Liang Jingmeng to refrain from changing the laws.

But Yuan Wu wanted to kill as a warning through Liang Jingmeng's hand.

In the affairs of the past,

it's already to difficult to

determine who was right and who was wrong.

Jingmeng.

I heard you are about to implement the new laws.

His Majesty has agreed to my plan.

But, there are many old ranks holding powers.

This new law looks difficult to move forward.

Your assessment is right.

You seem to know something.

Of course.

But I want to think over whether I'll tell you.

No.

Why are you this way?

As soon as I heard the news, I rushed over to tell you.

Forget it.

Alright, speak. I'll pay attention.

The 11 Marquis, led by Marquis Gongsun, are impeaching Ba Mountain Sword Academy.

They are making the plea at the risk of death. They've already started writing the document.

The new law

is to reform Great Heng's system.

But these people can only see what's good for them.

How can Great Heng rise then?

Of course, people are self-centered.

Your new law will hurt their advantages. Of course they'll want to eradicate you.

I think, since Marquis Gongsun leads the 11 Marquis,

then you should start with him.

Is there really no room to negotiate?

This plan will affect Great Heng.

Forget it.

I know what you want to say.

You have your path to take.

You've said it before.

If a sword doesn't suit you, don't keep it with you.

The person that doesn't suit you,

should not stay here either.

Surround it.

Wait.

Miss Gongsun, we are here by decree.

If the Marquis would have cooperated,

we wouldn't be meeting here today with weapons.

Liang Jingmeng, you keep saying the new law is for Great Heng and for the people.

But what you're doing now is to send the people to death.

The nobles in Fengming control too many of the resources.

The people can only serve in lowly status to survive.

The new law will redistribute the resources into the hands of the people.

Why do you think it will send people to death?

You want Gongsun family's cloth store on West street,

and the stone mill in the East city. But have you ever thought,

without someone in charge, these stores would be deserted?

With the stores released into the market,

people will take them and continue to run the business.

I'm not doubting the people's abilities.

But the noble families

aren't just in charge of businesses and stores.

To do business, what's important is to keep supplies flowing.

The noble families are responsible for goods and staffing.

It's like the royal court,

there is Bureau of Heavenly Supervision to supervise the people, and Holy Capital Surveillance to supervise the officials.

Each bureau is established for a reason.

You force the nobles to hand over their authorities.

It's actually not difficult.

But you've never considered what will happen to the people in the aftermath.

Isn't that right?

How do you know for sure

that the people won't be able to run the businesses without supervision?

It's not that they can't, but that they haven't had the opportunities.

For a country to be strong, the people should be placed on first priority. You should understand this principle.

It is true, but you are too aggressive.

The old system is canceled, but the new system hasn't been established fully.

When you continue like this, it will only sink Great Heng into chaos.

For a nation to move forward, it's always been

no new without breaking the old, and no gain without sacrifice.

I am willing to support you.

But not like how it is now.

Why did you retreat?

Didn't we agree to start with Marquis Gongsun?

I heard a different opinion.

Perhaps I should revise what I thought previously.

Is it Gongsun Qianxue?

Yes.

She told me that

business is about flowing smoothly. Haste makes waste.

If you cut through too quickly,

the ones who suffer will be the people.

She is a member of the Gongsun family, a beneficiary of the old system.

Of course she would say that.

I believe her.

Besides, we are being too aggressive now.

You believe her, or rather

you like her?

How can you ask this? She and I are innocent.

I know that you taught her to use the sword.

I teach many people about swords.

But she is the only one who is given the Nine-Phantom Sword.

Maquis Gongsun asked me to teach her, and that sword suits her really well.

That is all there is.

Jingmeng, you are smart.

I did everything for you.

Since I know the plan is faulty,

how can I make two wrongs into right?

Your Majesty is joking.

Without Your Majesty, there is no Great Heng.

There also wouldn't be Ba Mountain Sword Academy's Liang Jingmeng.

Jingmeng and I will toast Your Majesty.

The win is poisoned.

How are you?

If I had followed what you said back then,

Shang family, Gongsun family,

and Ba Mountain Sword Academy

wouldn't have suffered such calamities.

Baili Suxue, I am a sinner.

Back then, I was so

obstinate and stubborn.

You advised me so many times,

but I didn't listen to you even once.

I...

Did you drink the water in the stone bowl?

It's the converted essence of all the spirit veins in Min Mountain.

It takes three years to drip into one bowl.

It's good that you drank it. It's helpful to you

to study Heavenly Replenishing Divine Art.

Thank you, Sect Master, for willing to save me.

If this were ten years ago, I definitely would not save you.

But after these years,

I see how you are behaving and doing things,

you have regretted and changed.

Ten years ago...

Sect Master, I...

Didn't you just call me by my own name?

Liang... Jing... Meng.

So young but already so experienced with knowledge.

I should have already guessed.

How can there be so many geniuses in this world?

It's just some talent with accumulated experiences.

I...

I still need to bother you with something.

Qianxue doesn't know my identity yet.

I hope you...

I understand what you mean.

Why don't you ask why?

Between the two of you,

if it's revealed,

you probably won't be able to get along like you can now.

What's in the past doesn't need to be shared in too much detail.

Keeping the status quo

is probably the better choice.

Thank you.

His Majesty has decreed. After three days,

execute Lin Jujiu, remnant of Ba Mountain Sword Academy.

In the past ten years, you continuously begged to die.

Now, you are getting what you've wished.

I don't need you to congratulate me.

I just feel that you've been used even until death.

It's a little pitiful.

Why don't you tell the whereabouts of the Lone Mountain Sword Trove soon, and you may live.

Even though I'm definitely in a terrible state,

but I don't feel pity for myself.

Now, Yuan Wu and Ye Zhen

are using me as lure to attract his descendant.

It's not important anymore whether I speak or not.

I promise you, if you give up the secret to the Lone Mountain Sword Trove in advance,

I can guarantee that the ones who are coming will not show up.

Is that so?

It seems that, after my staying here for so long,

I've misjudged you.

You haven't misjudged me. I'm only loyal to one person.

It seems that person must not be Yuan Wu.

[White Goat Cave's Cave Master Xue Wangxu]

Teacher.

I am late.

Your Irreversible Fiery Yang appears to have improved.

Senior Uncle.

Senior Brother...

he seemed to have known that the trip to Min Mountain was going to be deadly.

Before he left,

he left these things for me to give you.
