"This is an era"

"that people tend to have assassins
solving their problems"

"The organization with
the strongest assassin is called"

"Ghost Valley"

I am one of the top 4 assassins
of the Ghost Valley,

Qi Jun-yuan, the Blue Asura.

Under the recommendation
of my master, the Horrifying Judge,

I entered the Valley

and become one of the Valley's
20th generation of assassins.

During one of the unrests,

I lost my arm
while protecting the Valley.

The overlord of the Valley,
Golden Mask gave me an artifect.

The Arm of Asura.

Everyone who has joined the Valley
has the same goal,

revenge.

When I was young,
my father once help a mysterious man

to made a copper map
depicting hidden ancient treasures,

and my entire clan of 37 relatives
were massacred for it.

The map has been lost,

the search for this map has led
to bloodbaths across the realm.

Now, the treasure map
has been found.

Is this some kind of conspiracy?

Who is behind it?

I have to avenge my murdered family,

and unravel this plot myself.

"Song of Assassins"

"South Ling"

"East Siang"

"East Siang City"

"Chai Kang, Duke Rui"

"Chai Sheng, Lord of East Siang"

My lord, I have investigated.

The copper map of lost ancient
treasures that has vanished

is now in the possession
of the Governor of Border City.

Then why didn't he turn it in?

"Zhao Chuang,
Commander of the Imperial Army"

I sent my messengers to him twice,
but both times he refused to.

If the map were
taken by a hostile state,

they can retrieve the treasure
and will launch an invasion.

Then...

Brother,
you have no cause for concern.

If you had listened
to my advice and struck first,

we'd have been
the overlord of the realm.

Duke Rui.

- That is not true.
- Zhao Chuang.

Don't forget that I promoted you
Commander of Imperial Army myself.

I'd have thought
it was some big deal.

My lord.

Please don't worry.

Governor Gu is a greedy man.

I am willing to travel there myself
and bribe him with a large sum,

so that the copper map
can be returned to my lord.

Commander Zhao.

If you go there on your own,
it'd be a very dangerous mission.

For the safety of our country,

it is my obligation to do so.

"South Ling"

"South Ling City"

My lord...

Lady Fleur has been waiting.

It looks really nice.

Be careful with the thread.

You're always so clumsy.

- How about this thread?
- It is good.

- My lady, how about this?
- This one will do.

Ming, get me a pearl.

- Is this suitable?
- Yes.

My lady, you've put so much care and
effort embroidering this royal robe.

I've said before,
I must craft it with my own hands.

The lord is lucky.

"Lady Fleur, Mistress of South Ling"

My lord.

I've found out that.

The country of East Siang
will issue a secret decree,

Chai Sheng will send Zhao Chuang to
the Governor of their Border City.

The trip is to receover
the lost treasure map.

Zhao Chuang.

People call him the silent wolf.

The reticent ones

are often only reluctant
to speak their minds.

He was able
to win Chai Sheng's trust

shows that
he shouldn't be underestimated.

Should we eliminate him
as soon as possible?

To eliminate him, one doesn't need
to do so in the name of South Ling.

Don't worry,

I will deliver this map to you
without issue.

Back in the day,
people have forewarned me.

They said you're a scarlet woman
and warned me not to be with you.

You're starting to regret it?

"Ghost Valley"

"Golden Mask,
18th overlord of the Valley"

I can't imagine Duke Rui

would pay a visit to tramps like us.

Golden Mask.

I have a favour to ask.

Your highness
has an army of thousands,

you don't need our involvement.

What I'm asking your grace

is something
I'm not at liberty to do.

When the deed is done,

I'll make sure
to repay you with our assistance.

I want you to retrieve the copper
treasure map from my governor.

And then,

assassinate Zhao Chuang,
Commander of the Imperial Army.

God have mercy.

I, Zhao Chuang, pray to god.

Please protect and ensure
the success of this expedition

may you bless my lord, my people

and so do my country.

"Horrifying Judge,
Head coach of weaponry"

Golden Mask.

The last commandment
from the Valley.

Let go of hatred
and prevail in righteousness.

Now Duke Rui asks us for a favour.

The Valley can leverage his might

and do some good
in these turbulent times.

It's not hard to kill Zhao Chuang.

But for the copper map, it's been
a matter of dispute for years.

If your grace
doesn't mind my old age,

I'm willing to get
to the bottom of this myself.

Who we will send

will be announced at
the lantern festival tomorrow night,

but don't involve your pupil
in this no matter what.

The copper map caused the
annihilation of his entire family,

I don't want him
to complicate things.

The map appearing at this time

makes me feel like it's a bad omen.

"Glass Beach"

Good.

Master.

Jun-yuan.

I knew you'd be here
to watch the play,

so I bought some smoke
for you on the way.

Try it.

If you like it, I'll get you more.

The more I smoke this,

the more it troubles my mind.

Master.

We both know about the reappearance
of the copper treasure map.

I still haven't found
my family's murderer,

there's got to be
a huge plot behind it.

The treasure map is my only lead,

I must take it back.

Do you know
why do I want to see the play?

Because all I wanted was
to watch in the audience,

instead of being forced
to take to the stage.

But this drama of the treasure map

has been unfolding for decades.

I don't want my pupil

to be forced to take to the stage.

I know that the Valley

will send someone to find
the whereabouts of the map.

Master, I hope

that you will send me.

- Master.
- It's about time for the riddles.

We give out 108 prizes for riddles
everyday here at Glass Beach.

It's the right time.

The person who will
carry out this mission

will be announced by Golden Mask's
people at the lantern festival.

"Black Impermanence,
White Impermanence"

"Yamaraja of 10th Palace,
Faceless Raksasi"

"Marine Mountain Ghost,
Red Mountain Ghost"

The winner today is
One-legged Mountain Ghost.

"One-legged Mountain Ghost"

How can they send a Mountatin Ghost
for such a important mission?

No one can stop me.

I've made a promise to myself
on my first day in the Valley,

I'll leave the Valley as soon as
I've made the revenge for my family

and go find a world
that truly belongs to me.

At the moment,
I'm excited beyond reason.

I don't know whether it's because

I'm about to find clues
for me to take my revenge,

or because I see the bright lights
of the future.

"Dragon Temple"

You, go maneuver the dragon body.

Give me a chance,
can I try the head this time?

Here.

Your change.

Pancakes, hot pancakes!

Don't underestimate me,
they call me the Oracle.

If I say you're to live,
you will not die.

If I say you're to die,
there's no way you can live.

Wait a minute.

You and I,

do we know each other?

When will this blizzard end?

Come on, the dragon dance
is about to start.

- Come on!
- Let's go!

- Come on!
- Hurry up!

Come here, the dragon dance
is about to start.

Governor Gu,
you have to understand this.

The news that you have
the treasure map in your possession

is now widely known.

Lord Chai is offering you
100 catty of gold

in exchange of
the copper treasure map.

Why do you think
I'd be willing to give it up?

You've seen the map.

The treasures it depicts
are hidden in the capital,

so you won't be able
to take them on your own.

Mountain Ghost.

Fine.

Give me.

Who are you?

Blue Asura?

I'll take it from here.

You two go ahead
and grab the treasure map.

Yes, sir!

Blue Asura.

That's me.

Who are you?

Don't follow me.

Don't go.

You aren't following orders.

You'd like to see the dragon dance?

I'll play with you next time.

Close all the city gates,
I want to take them alive.

Yes, sir!

Go ahead, I'm fine.

Yes, sir!

Governor Gu,
sorry to have kept you waiting.

Meng-die.

You attacked him
and destroyed my leads.

I know you're from
the disguise troop of my Valley,

Do you know who I am?

You're from my Valley, Blue Asura.

Obey your orders.

Did the Valley send you?

"White"

Is that White Impermanence?

"Ghostly Umbrella"

"White Impermanence, Executive
officer of domestic discipline"

Blue Asura.

You have the nerve
to break the Valley's rules

that causing the death
of five brothers from the Valley.

Give me the copper map now
and return to the Valley with me.

We've been double-crossed.

That's the standards
of a pupil of the Judge.

Don't criticise my master.

So what if I criticise him?

I, Impermanence have the authority
to declare him guilty.

Can you beat him in a fight?
How can you declare him guilty?

Who said so?

I said so.

The both of you, which one of you
is a better fighter?

Me, of course.

White Impermanence, do you
have the guts to spar with me?

What kind of weapon?

On her count of three,
we'll each throw our dart.

Let's see who is quicker.

Agree.

You asked for trouble.

One.

Slow down.

Two.

Three.

You fool.

- There's an assassin!
- Capture the assassin!

- You go over there!
- Yes, sir!

- You go there.
- Yes, sir!

Over there, hurry.

Here's your beverage, sir.

Waiter, where's my drink?

Master.

The word in the Valley is that...

Attempt to retrive the treasure map,

you has put five of
your Valley brothers in harm's way.

Golden Mask has made a ruling.

You didn't just break the rules,

"Blue Asura, Qi Jun-yuan"

but a traitor to the Valley.

Master.

It's not that simple.

There must be secrets
inside the pearl.

Jun-yuan.

I advise you to stop.

No, I must find out
the secret of the treasure map.

If I capture you,

I'd betray my heart.

But if I don't capture you,

I'd betray the Valley.

What do you want me to do?

Unless my machete
cannot take you down,

I swing my blade
and hit you in the stomach.

Master.

And my legs kick you.

But when I'm about to turn around,

you hit my right arm with your dart.

Throw your dart.

Your dart!

Take the girl who carry out missions
for the Valley as hostage,

and run.

I certainly can't capture
a traitor like you at the expense

of sacrificing the more important
missions for the Valley, right?

That's why,
all I can do is to let you go.

Master.

Take care of yourself.

Black Impermanence is the next.

So be careful.

Let me take a look
what the Valley asks you to do.

"Take the treasure map
from Governor Gu"

"and deliver it to
the Divine Pavilion in Deyuan."

"The Valley will
arrange for receipt."

What is your name?

Qin Sheng-sheng.

How did you know
I'd be going to Dragon Temple today?

I didn't know.

I was sitting
at a fortune teller's stall,

I just drew a fortune stick.

Was it accurate?

The ones in the past were accurate,

but I don't know about future ones.

That's right.

For assassins like us,

the future is unpredictable.

Mind if I read the poem
of the fortune stick?

I've thrown it away.

But I remember the poem.

Alone and adrift,
hoping for the weather to clear.

Years go by in a puff of smoke,
snowflakes fly and I ask why.

Drfting along the stream,

finally a hero yearns
for one night's drink into oblivion.

But what if we're not
destined for each other,

and the fear of parting
becomes my new sorrow.

How did you end up
in the Ghost Valley?

My parents abandoned me
when I was young.

I was persecuted,
but the Valley saved me.

I heard that your arm

was chopped off
by your lover in the Valley,

is that true?

She did it against her will.

We were all victims.

Who told you?

Everyone in the Valley knows.

I don't want to talk
about this anymore.

- What happened to her?
- She died.

I want to know

that even after she'd
chopped your arm off,

why can't you forget her?

She told me before she died.

As long as
I have the Arm of Asura with me,

she's there with me.

Why did anyone know the Valley's
mission ahead of time.

Those four Warriors from the West
set their eyes on me as the target,

how did they know I'd be involved?

It seemed like a trap set for me.

I'm sure
that Qin saved me with her music,

but why didn't she admit to it.

I just drew a fortune stick.

Is she a friend or foe?

I should go.

I saw you yesterday,
you seemed to enjoy this rice ball.

So I asked the shop to make some,

you can eat them on your journey.

There sure is enough.

I hope...

As long as the rice balls are there,

I'm there with you.

Drifting along the stream,

finally a hero yearns
for one night's drink into oblivion.

But what if we're not
destined for each other,

and the fear of parting
becomes my new sorrow.

I won't say farewell.

"Deyuan"

"Take the treasure map
from Governor Gu"

"and deliver it to
the Divine Pavilion in Deyuan."

"The Valley will
arrange for receipt."

"Divine Pavilion"

Thank you sir.

You hired someone
from the Ghost Valley

which means
I am hired by you as well,

so why do you need all this hassle?

Duke Rui.

Did your overlord tell you this?

At this juncture,

there are not that many who can
afford to hire from the Valley.

Such as Meng and Lady Fleur
in South Ling.

But in East Siang?

It must be Chai Sheng and Duke Rui.

Many desire the treasure map,

but the one who desires
Zhao Chang's head

might only be Duke Rui then.

Then what I want is ready?

I want to ask you a question.

In Dragon Temple the other day,

those Warrior from the West who
killed five of my Valley brothers,

who sent them?

If I say I don't know,

would you believe me?

If I say...

This belongs to my family,
and I won't give it to you.

Would you believe me?

Don't put the blame on me,
we had to be prepared.

I'm not affiliated
with her in any way.

Not affiliated?

On the count of three,

if you don't surrender
the treasure map,

I'd make some changes to her face.

One.

Two.

Didn't you say
you're not affiliated with me?

Don't move if you want to live.

Who is he?

Black Impermanence.

Who?

Black Impermanence.

"Black Impermanence, Executive
officer of domestic discipline"

Qi Jun-yuan.

You can tell this Valley peasant

that what I'm here to do.

To enforce the domestic discipline.

I understand very well.

When someone gathers strength,

they just can't help
but think about the future.

I'm looking forward to the future.

But this treasure map

is a piece of my past.

"Execute"

You grew up under my watch
in the Valley,

and I don't take pleasure
in destroying your Master's efforts.

I am going to make an exception
for you today.

If you don't return
with me to the Valley,

we will fight to the death.

Then...

You stay away.

Black Impermanence,

I will use my Arm of Asura

to face off your Yin Yang Umbrella.

Go and look into the street,

why is it suddenly so quiet?

The people have fled.

Check from the windows
for the east and west

to see how many troops
have they sent.

Not fewer than 300.

I didn't expect Chai Kang
to have such backups.

Since it was Chai Kang
who hired me from the Valley,

it shouldn't be him who mobilised
the East Siang troops.

Meng and Lady Fleur
are also aware of the treasure map,

but they haven't
made their wishes known.

I think they are the ones
who've sent the troops.

After all, South Ling's iron cavalry
is now challenging the Valley,

we can't ever
let them besmirch our name.

What do you say?

My lady.

All is ready.

Take them alive.

This is the Ghost Valley.

Black Impermanence
is a force to be reckoned with.

"Divine Pavilion"

Please let me stay.

I'll block the way
so that you can go.

Go.

I'm telling you to go!

You won't make it
if you don't go now.

"I'm still fine,
don't worry about me"

My lord.

"Grand Temple"

Commander Zhao,

I've found the mole in East Siang.

It's my brother,

he hired someone from Ghost Valley
to assassinate you.

My lord.

No, it can't be.

It must be a misunderstanding.

Duke Rui has always
been so kind to me,

he gave me my promotion
into the cabinet.

"Wisdom, Trusty"

"Siang"

Commander Zhao,

all the correspondence
between ministers in the cabinet

have been collected in here.

After they were copied,

each and every one of them,

I will go through it myself.

It includes the correspondence
between my brother and the Valley.

Here are all the letters
between my brother and you.

For so many years,

you've written
to your wife without fail.

A person
who takes good care of his family

is more reliable.

All these years.

I've been playing a game of chess
with Meng.

If I make my next move correctly,
I'll come out the victor.

Zhao Chuang, you have to make
this last move for me,

the most important move as well.

My lord.

Don't worry, I'll send my people
to take care of your wife.

What does your lordship
want me to do?

Unshackle him.

They came to see me
of their own will,

that's why you could capture them.

- Leave us for now.
- Yes!

What a handsome pair of assassins
the Valley has delivered.

When I look at you,

I see my younger self.

I'm nothing like you,

I've been an orphan
since I was young.

Qi Jun-yuan,
have you ever thought of it?

Even though the Ghost Valley
has a considerable reputation,

assassinations can only
change the situation now,

but can't change people's fate.

So you chose to be a Buddhist?

Yes.

Because I made a mistake.

For my future,
I sacrifice my own past.

So I pray every day

to ask for guidance to amend.

Did you get any answers?

Yes, I did.

I was enlightened with a phrase.

Revenge.

So I dare not
to ask for anything now,

just hoping that my man and my child
would be blessed.

Lady Fleur.

Do you know why I came to see you?

It's because
you have something to ask me.

Now the treasure map
has been returned to me,

I'll hire you
to do something for me.

Returned to you?

Of course.

If I didn't arrange for it
to be kept by Governor Gu,

how could a man of mediocrity
like him get his hands on the map?

What do you want to hire me to do?

When I hire an assassin,
it's of course to assassinate.

I used the treasure map as bait

to arrange a meeting with Chai Sheng
in the Snow Pavilion,

as to discuss with him ostensibly
about how to find the treasures.

When the time comes, I want you
to assassinate Chai Sheng.

Why would I do such a thing for you?

Because I can tell you

what you want to know.

What do I want to know?

The truth about the map and
the annihiliation of your Qi clan.

I, Chai Sheng of East Siang

will form a brotherly alliance with
the Lord of South Ling.

We shall join hands
to find the ancient treasures.

If I desire otherwise,

the wrath of the heavens and men
will be upon me.

While both heaven and earth
will destroy me.

I, Meng Xu of South Ling

will form a brotherly alliance with
the Lord Chai Sheng of East Siang.

If I desire otherwise,
I will die by sword.

- Whenever I tell you...
- When you tell me to leave,

I'll leave.

When I tell you to grab it,
you grab.

Today, we are brothers and allies.

I'd like to invite your wife
for a song

to celebrate this momentous day.

When the time comes,
I'll sing a song.

When the opportunity comes
for you to assassinate Chai Sheng,

I'll give you a signal.

"We wouldn't lament we've met
too late if the love is true"

"I just hope to see you,
with no regrets"

"Love and honour
are fading like a tide"

"and more colourful
than wilted flowers"

"But I fear loneliness
and dashed hopes"

"Love is like a dream,
it doesn't matter if it didn't last"

"If our hearts are strong,
our love will never fade"

"Parting brings destruction,
I yearn for us to meet again"

"The love is in my heart,
it won't go away"

"We wouldn't lament we've met
too late if the love is true"

"I just hope to see you,
with no regrets"

What does your lordship
want me to do?

Assassinate Meng Xu.

Commander Zhao.

I'll deliver this chalice
to the lord.

I think I've seen you
somewhere before.

Your memory deceives you.

We've never met.

Capture the assassin!

Someone is trying
to kill his lordship!

Protect the lord!

- Catch the assassin!
- Protect his lordship!

Where did these skillful assassins
come from?

Help!

My lord, it's dangerous.

Master?

It's the person you brought?

Lord Meng!

Lord Meng!

Don't worry...

It's over now.

It's finally over.

My lord?

Who is it?

Lady Fleur, what instructions
do you have for me so late at night?

Don't worry.

There's no one outside.

You shouldn't have come to see me
at this time.

If someone sees you,
our plan will be ruined.

It's been decades,

I've thought about you everyday.

I know you blame me.

I've promised you
not to kill Meng Xu.

But the situation has changed,
I had to do it.

Don't worry,

the situation
will be resolved very soon.

Before long,
we'll be together again.

See?

You're the mastermind.

You asked me to make

that copper map of a treasure
which didn't even exist,

so that so many people have plotted
around us for all these years.

But...

Whatever the outcome is,

it just doesn't make up
for what we've lost.

Do you still miss our daughter?

How can I not miss her?

I know.

To make Meng Xu
take you under his wing,

I forced you to abandon her.

The Ghost Valley...

They tried to assassinate you,

but why are they
following your orders now?

Do you remember when we've to
take refuge separately 13 years ago,

the question you asked me then?

If you can only choose one
between me and the realm in future,

how would you choose?

Of course I'd choose you.

I said I'd choose you.

What is your reply?

I said I'm pleased.

You asked why is the Valley
following my order,

it's because Lord Chai Sheng

is holding the decree
of their real plan.

If I say...

I'm waiting for you here,

would you believe me?

We meet again.

I'm grateful
for you accepting my invitation.

If I didn't want you to come here,

why would I lie to your men that

his lordship is holding the decree
of the Ghost Valley's real plan?

That's wonderful.

I'd have found you soon anyway.

Commander Zhao.

I want to know that

was it you who hired the Valley
to assassinate Meng Xu?

"I've commissioned Ghost Valley..."

What is your link to the Valley?

Your lordship.

Your servant
would like to borrow your pen.

Do you know why I was always
writing to my wife?

Because I knew very well
that you would spy on the letters.

That is why
I wrote whatever you wanted to read.

The other day

when you said you'd send men
to look after my wife,

I wasn't afraid at all.

Because the wife I wrote to

doesn't even exist.

It must've been hard to pretend
as a loyal minister all these years.

Do you know why you're still alive?

It's because I need you
to take all the blames for me.

An assassin is here,
someone try to kill his lordship!

Assassins!

Someone is trying
to kill his lordship!

Master?

Someone wants us
to destroy each other,

go meet me
at the Red Chamber Theatre.

"Red Chamber Theatre"

Jun-yuan.

Judge.

I said I'd do some good
in these turbulent times,

so believe me.

I'm very close to success.

Judge,

I appreciate your contribution
over the years to the Valley.

The sacrifice you make today
is worthwhile.

I'm old.

It's time for me to go.

In exchange for the efforts

I've made for the Valley
for decades...

Golden Mask,

I beg you.

As an assassin, allow me the last...

Dignity.

Judge.

I'd say farewell.

Master!

Master!

Master?

It's Golden Mask.

He has Zhao's prayer beads on him.

It's because I can tell you

the truth about the map and
the annihiliation of your Qi clan.

I've been trying to find the truth
about the death of the Qi clan.

But at this moment,
for revenge and for my own future...

As the Blue Asura of Ghost Valley,

all the more reason for me
to solve this plot for the Valley.

Golden Mask.

Master taught us
to kill with assassination,

so what kind of weapon do you use?

I didn't use assassination,

but plot.

A plot can change an entire era.

Can the plot be unraveled?

If you want to solve this plot,

you'd have to come up
with another plot.

Attention, General Zhao
shall receive the Commander's Seal.

Attention,
General Zhao enters the palace.

I congratulate your ladyship for
becoming the ruler of South Ling.

Wait until I receive
the Commander's Seal,

East Siang will be ours too.

I urge your ladyship to come

and witness our dream
becoming reality.

"Chai Zhen,
Royal heir of East Siang"

My lord...

I've said

that I like

watching you
embroider the royal robe,

even though I know

that robe wasn't for me.

Your servant, Zhao Chuang pledge
allegiance to the young lord.

Wait.

"Siang"

General Zhao.

South Ling and East Siang
have form an alliance,

so I have to remind you
on behalf of the two lords.

I hope that even if you receive
the Commander's Seal,

you won't forget your pledge
to protect the young lord.

I, Zhao Chuang have never broken
a promise in my life.

Have you never broken a promise?

Do you dare to swear to Buddha?

I swear to Buddha,

I will always and forever
be loyal to the young lord

and protect East Siang.

If I betray this vow,

I'm willing to be punished
and be banished to hell everafter.

"Commander's Seal"

Report!

General Zhao, there is a covert
invasion from assassins.

- What?
- There are assassins here?

- Who dares to do so?
- Yeah!

Protect his lordship!

Close the gate!

General,

an unknown enemy has set off
all the explosives in our arsenal.

Zhao Chuang staged a mutiny!

Who is shouting?

Zhao Chuang staged a mutiny!

Zhao Chuang staged a mutiny!

It can't be, how can it be?

Zhao Chuang has staged a mutiny?

It must be Qi Jun-yuan.

Deploy my Imperial Army.

Yes, sir!

Zhao Chuang has staged a mutiny...

Zhao Chuang, how dare you
bring a sword into the palace!

Protect the young lord.

It's really him!

Protect the royal heir
and lead him to safety.

"Siang"

Wait until I receive
the Commander's Seal,

I will deploy the troops
to destroy the Ghost Valley.

Ask Qi Jun-yuan to come out.

"Siang"

Traitor!

"Commander's Seal"

I knew you'd harm the young lord.

My hand was forced by Qi Jun-yuan.

You've said

you'd choose me
between the realm and me.

Now I ask you to leave with me,
would you do it?

I can't.

I promised
to help you calm the chaos,

but now our plan
has lost its meaning.

Because you've changed.

Yes.

But the change in me
was made to accommodate the times.

Actually,

we've both changed.

I've lost my past

and see no future for us,

I can't even face myself.

But I can start afresh.

Fleur.

Fleur, is this...

Is this your new beginning?

You've left me all by myself.

I will definitely complete it.

To complete our plan.

The Commander's Seal is here, see?

I'll show you.

You didn't foresee that
you'd be trapped as well, right?

Perhaps you have forgot,

it was you who taught me to plot.

Golden Mask.

Actually, I've once wondered

what is the relationship
between Golden Mask and Zhao Chuang.

In fact, it's very simple.

You are just the same person.

It must've been hard to pretend
as a loyal minister all these years.

If you're Golden Mask,

then Lady Fleur

must be the Valley's Crimson Mask
who has been missing for years.

You asked my family, the Qi clans,

to make a copper map for treasures
that didn't exist,

as to start a war
between South Ling and East Siang.

So amid the chaos, you were able
to surrender to Chai Sheng.

While Lady Fleur attached herself
to Meng Xu.

You arranged for the Valley brothers
to assassinate yourself,

So that you can stage a scene of
a loyal minister being assassinated

to win Chai Sheng's trust.

You knew very well that
I wouldn't give up avenging my clan,

so you put the blame of
taking the map and treachery on me.

Then the entire Valley

would focus on me, the traitor.

After that, you used the map as bait

to lure both the leaders of
South Ling and East Siang to meet

and assassinated them
at the meeting.

Once you received
the Commander's Seal,

you will lead the East Siang army
to destroy the Ghost Valley.

In that way,

you could cover up your treachery
from the overlord of the Valley

and advance your position into
the overlord of the entire realm.

Golden Mask.

Now I ask on behalf
of my brothers in the Valley,

how can you face us?

Times have changed,

I can't say that I didn't try to
change the world through the Valley.

You can't change anything

because you've changed.

I'm Qi Jun-yuan with a mask on.

Qi Jun-yuan with my mask off.

Today I don't care whether
you're Zhao Chuang or Golden Mask,

I will avenge my master
and the whole Valley.

Blue Asura, it's time
to enforce the domestic discipline.

The one to enforce
the domestic discipline now

is me.

Your Arm of Asura,

it's time for me to take it back.

I didn't use assassination,

but plot.

A plot can change an entire era.

"Grand Temple"

I've promised myself that

I'll leave the Valley as soon as
I've made the revenge for my family

and go find my own future.

At this moment,
I recall that very snowy day

and what Sheng-sheng had said.

When will this blizzard end?

I don't understand why you still
have to take me to the Valley.

I've made my plans

about where shall we go
after we've left,

and you'd like it.

Golden Mask and Crimson Mask
told us here that

the Ghost Valley will make the world
a place without hatred one day.

They are all lies.

That's why
they never took off their masks.

Let's go.

Sheng-sheng.

I remember my master had said.

For Golden Mask's undertaking,

Crimson Mask gave away their child.

Sheng-sheng, I have to tell you

that I made up that rumour myself.

I've always been thinking

why did we meet
at the Dragon Temple?

And so do your fortune stick.

Drifting along the stream,

finally a hero yearns
for one night's drink into oblivion.

Why was the fortune so accurate?

I went to search for it
at the Temple.

Did you find it?

How could I it
if it didn't even exist?

Also, when you pretended
to be Lady Fleur,

how did you know
their child is a girl?

So I dare not
to ask for anything now,

just hoping that my man and my child
would be blessed.

Do you still miss our daughter?

I deduced that you are the daughter
of Golden Mask and Crimson Mask.

You followed me

because you wanted to see
how they've turned out.

That's right.

I've always known that they are

Zhao Chuang and Lady Fleur.

That why I saved you with the music
outside Dragon Temple,

so that you'd continue to help me.

And that's also why I reminded you

to think about the relationship
between Zhao Chuang and Golden Mask.

Ghost Valley...

They tried to assassinate you,

but why are they
following your orders now?

I think...

You must have guessed

that I let Chai Kang capture me
on purpose to return to you.

Of course I knew.

I also knew that you were captured
by South Ling on purpose.

It didn't occur to me that apart
from Golden Mask and Crimson Mask,

I'd have to face a trap set by you.

Sheng-sheng.

Is this the ending you envisioned?

Sheng-sheng.

All plots have a cost.

Would you like to see me in future?

I'm sure that...

I'll think of you
everytime I have rice balls.

Can't we start afresh?

I have to stay
and rebuild Ghost Valley.

The principle of the Valley

is to make the world turn away from
the sorrows of parting and hatred

to be without malice.

The Valley's belief is magnificent.

As long as the Valley exists,
there's hope for this world.

If you stay in the Valley,

wouldn't you just become
another Golden Mask?

As long as I hold fast to my beliefs
and have intention remain unchanged

to destroy any enemies
as well as unravel any plots...

I am Qi Jun-yuan
when I take off my mask

while the same Qi Jun-yuan
when I put my mask on as well.
