Previously

I wish to ride the wind and return home,

yet I fear the jade towers and palaces,

high places are too cold to bear.

I rise and dance, playing with my clear shadow...

How could this compare to the mortal world...

to...

the mortal world?

I Am The Blade

Episode - 2 First Meeting by Candlelight

That hurts!

Xiao Yang, are you alright?

I'm fine.

How did you know

my surname is

Xiao Yang...

A horse...

and you call it Xiao Yang?

You horse thief!

Wh—

Why are you reading again?

After reading, you're not going to—

When encountering thieves and rogues,

no words are needed.

Draw your sword!

I knew it...

Speak!

Who are you?

Where are you from?

I...

I'm Yang Ren,

from Chongxue Town.

Don't come any closer!

Perfect!

I need to find someone in Chongxue Town.

You'll be my guide.

We'll forget about the horse theft.

I won't go!

Go by yourself—

Go...!

Fine, fine, fine!

Laozi’s taking you there, isn't that good enough?! Note: 老子 (lǎozi): This is the key to the phrase's tone. Literally "old master," it is an arrogant or boastful way of saying "I" or "me." It's often used half-jokingly between friends, or seriously during a confrontation. It implies the speaker is superior, older, or more capable. A rough equivalent might be "Your daddy..." or "This old man..."

Tell me, lady warrior,

are all Bashan people this short-tempered?

Always drawing swords at the slightest thing.

When someone disrespects our sect,

no words are needed.

Draw your sword!

Stop!

Not again...

Drawing again...?

Envoy Qi.

Seal off Chongxue Town.

Let no one in or out.

Dig three feet into the ground if necessary, and get that letter!

Yes!

What about those affected by the Jinghong Shadow?

Kill them all.

Chongxue Town defies the Pavilion Master's authority.

In that case,

they'd better quietly accept their death.

This sorcery...

I can't use any of my inner force!

Continue searching for other survivors.

Yes!

Envoy Qi's merciless extermination

will surely bring endless troubles. Hua Liuwu

Hua Liuwu

If we don't pull out the roots,

letting these remnants of the Dao Zong era live

would be the real endless trouble.

Master Hua, if you have doubts,

perhaps...

you'd like to join them below?

How about it?

Envoy is joking.

My loyalty to you is as clear as the sun and moon.

You...

know that, don't you?

Oh?

Is that so?

Must it be this way?

This doesn't seem like the right direction.

Where is this?

Where is he?

Yang Ren,

where did you go?

Are you trying to get yourself killed?

Why is there a lonely grave here?

The grave of my honored master, She Can.

Master,

I must go.

I fear

this isn't the way to Chongxue Town.

Sect Leader Qiu,

to be honest,

I must go on a long journey, so I came to bid farewell to my master first.

Besides,

Changfeng Pavilion has attacked Chongxue Town.

I barely escaped with my life.

Going there would be walking into a tiger's den!

Nonsense!

The Righteous Changfeng Pavilion

is the leader of the righteous path!

They would never do such things.

You must be fooling me again.

Here we go again!

If this old bird doesn't show its power,

you'll really take me for a chicken!

Let me down!

Don't leave!

Let me down!

With just a mere rope,

you think you can restrain your grandpa?

What a foolish dream!

These scholars are all gutless cowards.

Last time I speared the Tiger Gang leader's head off,

it rolled right to some poor scholar's feet.

He wet himself right there and then!

Draw it properly!

Draw it badly and I'll have your life!

A head worth only 300 taels,

Xiao Yeyao looks ugly no matter how I draw it.

What did you say?

If anyone's there, answer me!

Master...

What a shame that I, a genius Blade Master,

might starve to death here today.

Oh right,

Brother Chai!

How could I forget about you?

Still trying to trap your handsome Master Yang?

Better not let me see you again,

or else...

Never mind,

better not meet again.

Then, may I ask if this Brother Yang would be willing to have a word with me?

People of Changfeng Pavilion...

Guo Zheng of the Righteous Changfeng Pavilion, Guo Zheng

invites Brother Yang to be our guest for a few days.

Easy for you to say.

Stealing a letter is one thing,

but kidnapping people too?

Brother Yang wasn't affected by the Jinghong Shadow Grand Formation.

There must be something unusual about this.

We must take you to see the Pavilion Master.

Don't worry,

once we understand why,

I, Guo, will personally escort Brother Yang home.

Home?

Thanks to all of you,

do I even have a home anymore?

Well...

Guo Zheng is always indecisive.

Aren't you afraid he'll let that boy escape?

It doesn't matter.

With so many dead,

it can't be covered up anyway.

Someone has to take the blame.

As expected of the famous bounty hunter of Central Plains.

Just one move,

and 300 taels were in hand.

Mere 300 taels is nothing.

Changfeng Pavilion is offering a huge reward

for capturing a young man.

Won't Young Master Xiao take a look?

Changfeng Pavilion?

No, no, no.

It would only sully my eyes.

I'd rather gaze upon beauties instead.

Qing He

Qing He You’re so naughty~

It purifies the mind and brightens the eyes,

even prolongs life!

Since Young Master isn't interested in Changfeng Pavilion,

this humble one has a small business proposition.

I wonder if Young Master Xiao is up for it?

Whether I'm up for it or not, we'll know after trying.

I'm not joking.

The Shadow Blade,

Yue Wei'an.

The reward for this one isn't small, you know.

Tell me,

where is Chongxue Town?

You keep attacking Changfeng Pavilion.

This won't end well.

If you hadn't drawn your weapons at me,

as a Sect Leader,

why would I trouble you?

Take me to Chongxue Town,

and I'll spare you.

What reckless woman is this,

daring to trespass in Chongxue Town's territory?

I heard Chongxue Town is a Sacred Land for Blade Masters.

Why does the Righteous Changfeng Pavilion block others from going there?

Since when does Changfeng Pavilion need to explain itself to you?

However,

you're quite a beautiful girl.

Why don't...

Another shameless scoundrel.

Senior Brother!

You're asking for death!

I heard Changfeng Pavilion upholds justice in the Martial World.

How can their disciples behave so disgracefully?

I can't engage in fight.

Let's leave this place first.

Don't let her escape!

After her!

Xiao Yang,

what Yang Ren said...

could it all be true?

A mere woodcutter’s blade,

and you dare show it off?

A woodcutter’s blade is enough to deal with you all!

Such a sharp tongue.

With just this little skill,

you claimed a woodcutter’s blade was enough?

Now you've lost even that knife.

I bet you won't be so sharp-tongued anymore.

If you're smart, you'll come with us now.

A wise man knows when to retreat.

I'm done playing with you all!

Trying to escape?

We need to catch you for the bounty!

Damn it!

Master...

I'm sorry,

but I truly have no choice this time.

Open!

Master,

you've treasured this blade,

yet never used it all these years.

Let your disciple

test its power now!

Changfeng Blade Technique!

Today, you'll be my blade's sacrifice!

Could it be...

the Blade Demon possession?

I will...

kill you!
