[The Journey of Legend]

[Episode 13]

Are you a human or a ghost?

Why do you look so familiar?

-Yeah. -Let's go.

Don't go.

[Du Yueshan, Mengxiang Sect Leader]

Well, is he dead or alive?

Hold on.

Be careful!

Finally, some meat to eat!

Big chunks of meat.

Fresh meat!

Old monster,

we haven't bathed for three months.

Our meat will taste sour.

Not edible at all.

T-This crazy old man.

Is he one of Qu Hanshan's men?

Good.

Unwashed men taste even better!

The Sword King has blocked the entrance.

And we can't get out of here either.

Looks like he also fell victim to Qu Hanshan.

Sir,

you were also imprisoned here by Qu Hanshan, right?

Why don't we join hands to escape?

Escape?

No!

I want meat now.

I haven't had meat for a long time!

Dodge!

Tang Fang!

Finally, I can eat some meat.

[Du Yueshan]

Let me go!

Mengxiang Sect Leader, Du Yueshan?

Can't believe this crazy old man

is one of the Three Peaks along with Qu Hanshan and Gu Junshan,

the renowned Du Yueshan!

How did this legendary Du Yueshan

end up here

and go mad?

I see.

He seems to have been poisoned by the Power Gang's Dead-Bat Venom,

which made him lose his mind.

Strike his Jingmen

and Baihui acupoints

to vent his internal energy,

and he can recover.

But given his insanity and formidable martial arts,

it's hard to pull it off!

One-on-one won't work.

But now there are four of us.

I want meat!

I got it.

I want meat right now!

Come on, old freak! Come on!

Eat me! Come on!

I'll tear you all apart!

I taste good! Come eat me!

Old freak!

Sir.

Sir?

Mr. Du?

The poison has dissipated with his internal energy.

He should recover soon.

Oh, no.

Someone's setting fire outside.

No wonder I smell burnt pig hair.

What now?

Xiao Qiushui!

Either you come out,

or you suffocate from the smoke.

Take your pick.

Fan faster.

Yes!

We have no other choice now.

Let's go that way.

Wait,

what about this crazy old man?

Take him with us.

Be careful. Let's go.

Okay, move.

Take it slow. Good. Keep going.

How's it?

Any way out?

It's a dead end.

Up ahead is a stone wall. We can't get through.

-Help Mr. Du sit down. -Come on.

There's a waterfall cascading from above

nonstop. It must be an ever-flowing stream.

There might be a way out below.

But...

Things are critical. We can't linger here.

Looks like we have to explore the bottom of the pond.

What should we do?

-He's come around! -You...

He's awake!

What's wrong with you again?

You guys...

Who exactly are you?

I am Tang Fang from the Tang Sect.

These are Tie Xingyue and Qiu Nangu.

Sir, this is your personal token, isn't it?

Indeed. I am Du Yueshan.

Are you really Mr. Du?

How did you end up here?

It's all because of that old scoundrel Qu Hanshan!

He tricked me into coming here for a duel,

yet imprisoned me with the Dragon-Binding Rope for years

in order to force me to hand over the Mengxiang Sword Technique.

How despicable Qu Hanshan is!

Unbelievable!

Sir, I am Xiao Qiushui. I just drained your internal energy.

Sorry for the offense.

Never mind.

Were it not for you,

the Dead-Bat Venom

would eventually cause me to explode and die.

By the way,

how did you young ones

end up being cornered here by Qu Hanshan?

It's a long story.

I've figured out Qu Hanshan's identity as the Sword King.

He wants to kill me to silence me.

More importantly,

he's going all out to stop me

from returning to the Xiao Residence of Huanhua Sect

to save my parents from danger.

Huanhua Sect? You're from the Xiao family of Huanhua Sect?

That's right.

Then you'd better stay inside.

Better to be caught by Qu Hanshan

than end up in Liu Suifeng's hands.

Sir,

what do you mean by that?

Don't you know?

Liu Suifeng of the Power Gang

has a vendetta against the Xiao family.

Liu Suifeng wants to wipe out the Xiao family.

He definitely won't spare your life.

Liu Suifeng has a vendetta against the Xiao family?

No way.

I don't believe there's any vendetta.

And be it the Power Gang or Liu Suifeng,

I won't let any of them go!

Our priority now

is to find a way out.

That's right.

We need to find a way to get out first.

This pond seems to have flowing water.

It must lead somewhere.

Sir,

having been locked up here for so long,

do you know what's beneath this pond?

Brilliant,

you're quite a perceptive young hero.

I do know something about it.

Let me point you in the right direction.

You're a clever one.

You were right earlier.

There's a crack

down there,

but it's too narrow for a person to pass through.

After years of being trapped here,

meditating every day,

I finally figured out a solution to this predicament.

My Mengxiang Sword Technique

includes a move that can manipulate water with a sword.

That is to wield a sword to concentrate the power of water currents

and break open a way out.

-That's great! -Nice!

Sir, please use it right away

-and take us out. -Yes!

But sir,

you've lost your internal energy.

So you can't perform your sword technique.

It's okay.

I can teach my Mengxiang Sword Technique

to one of you.

As long as you grasp its essence,

even with quick learning,

it will still work for sure.

My hidden weapon skills are totally different from sword skills.

It's on you.

S-Sir, how about me?

My master died early,

so I wouldn't mind becoming your disciple.

Sir, look how tall, robust,

and mighty I am.

You?

And you?

No, no, no.

You can't do this either.

Didn't you say you could do it?

Why do you think I can't do this?

He's blind to talent.

I'm so awesome.

-You're no better than me. -Fine, fine.

Your aptitude seems quite good.

I wonder if your comprehension is up to par.

Well then,

how about I teach my Mengxiang Sword Technique

to you?

Sir, please don't joke about this.

That's impossible.

Sir,

whether we can get out of here all depends on you!

That's right. None of us knows how to use a sword.

We're counting on you.

I...

I...

-Come on! Learn swordmanship from me. -Wait, no.

Let's go.

Fan faster. Faster!

Suffocate them with smoke!

Yes.

Liu Suifeng,

First, you trespassed into my Guangling territory,

and now you even dare meddle in my household affairs.

Sword King.

Why the hostility?

Xiao Qiushui has tricked both you and me.

Cunning and treacherous as he is,

if pushed too far,

he'd rather destroy everything

than let anyone gain any advantage.

I suggest you take a step back

and see how he struggles next.

He already knows my identity.

I absolutely can't let him survive out there.

With your status in the Guangling martial community,

isn't it an easy thing to twist the truth?

Don't waste time on him.

The Hero Command Token is what matters most now.

You know the whereabouts of the Hero Command Token?

I've investigated it.

There are only two possibilities for the Token's location.

It's either at the Xiao Residence

or on Xiao Qiushui.

With the one on Xiao Qiushui proven fake,

the real one must be at the Xiao Residence.

Sword King,

why don't we join hands

to find that Hero Command Token?

Deputy Chief Liu, you've always been high and mighty,

yet now you want to cooperate with me?

I have no choice.

The Xiao's Sword Manor is rigged with self-destruct mechanisms.

If we force our way in,

fire bombs will destroy everything.

To get the intact Hero Command Token,

we can only break in from the inside.

I've already been exposed,

but you still stand a chance, Sword King.

If we break into the Sword Manor,

I'll be able to find Xiao Xilou and have my revenge.

And I'm willing

to share this credit with you.

You want me to go help the Xiao family?

Given your reputation in Guangling,

Xiao Yiren will surely come to ask you for help.

If I were you,

I would agree to help him

and infiltrate the Sword Manor.

But if I let Xiao Qiushui survive,

things might go sideways and ruin my plans.

Rest assured, Sword King.

I know him well.

He poses no threat.

Have you mastered it?

Be careful.

W-Will he be alright?

This sword skill is extremely draining.

If he runs out of strength now,

the current could very likely carry him away.

Qiushui!

Qiushui!

It's simple.

I won't let him go back.

I've got something up my sleeve.

Dealing with Xiao Qiushui is nothing hard for me.

Then you can do whatever you want

with him.

Just keep him alive so that I can have my revenge.

Killing two birds with one stone.

Deputy Chief Liu, you sure are good at plotting.

Qiushui! Qiushui!

Qiushui!

How's it? Did you break through it?

Yes, I did it!

Great!

Excellent! We made it!

They're coming after us! There!

No time to waste. Jump!

Go! Let's go!

Master.

Xiao Qiushui and the others escaped through the waterway.

Also, Xiao Yiren and his men are already at our doorstep.

They came at the perfect time.

Shinian, don't be rude. Stand down immediately.

Mr. Qu.

You Huanhua Sect members keep coming to my residence to pick fights.

Are you openly declaring war against me?

Mr. Qu,

I, Xiao Yiren, along with my younger brother, Kaiyan,

came here to pay our respects.

We've long heard of your prestige as He Who Shakes Guangling.

We wouldn't dare to offend you.

We're here today

because of the Power Gang's siege of the Xiao Residence.

Mr. Qu, we hope that you

can help us seek justice.

Xiao Qiushui just barged into my mansion with a crew of hooligans

to mess around and ruin my reputation.

And now you're here to force me to help the Xiao family.

What are you up to?

Qiushui?

Mr. Qu,

perhaps there's been some misunderstanding.

Now, your brother

is calling me the Sword King of the Power Gang.

He's slandered everyone at my residence as Power Gang members

and threatened to announce this to the entire martial world

to ruin my reputation.

So I'm sorry. There's nothing

I can do to help the Xiaos out of the trouble.

-Mr. Qu. Mr. Qu. -Enough.

Your brother, Xiao Qiushui, calls us the Power Gang,

but I think the people around him are more like it.

He's so skilled in framing.

If not properly disciplined,

he'll not only ruin your family's reputation

but also tend to become a menace to the entire martial world.

Yiren,

did they get it wrong?

How could Qiushui possibly do such a thing?

Qiushui usually

does hang out with some shady folks

and behave a bit inappropriately,

but he wouldn't go this far.

Could it be that he's fallen for some villain's lies?

How about this?

I'll head back immediately to investigate this matter.

You go to the Divine Blade Hall to visit Master Ge.

Okay.

We've been walking for so long.

Where are we going?

Mr. Du,

this place is too treacherous to linger.

We'll walk a few more miles to the dock and take a boat.

Then we'll reach the Huanhua Sect's Guangling Villa soon.

We're going to your home?

My sister is skilled in medicine.

Mr. Du, you have internal injuries.

I believe my sister can heal you.

After you recover,

I'll have someone escort you back to the Mengxiang Sect.

I was harmed by that villain Qu

and imprisoned for years,

with half my cultivation gone.

It's already a great stigma.

And now you're exposing my miserable state

to more people,

to the entire martial world!

I'd rather die right here.

I won't go.

Mr. Du,

please calm down.

It's just that your internal injuries...

I'm fine. Don't worry about me. I'm leaving.

How about this, Mr. Du?

I happen to have some silver nuggets here.

Take some for your travel expenses.

Thank you, young man. Farewell.

-Sir. -Sir!

Bro, well...

I still have some silver here.

Take it with you,

find a proper job,

and never join the Power Gang.

We don't want money.

That's not what we meant.

Sir,

we brothers have been in the martial world for years

and seen assorted shady people.

But we've never met a hero like you who's so keen to help

and do good deeds.

We want to follow you.

Yes.

Instead of joining some third-rate sect,

we'd rather be disciples of the Huanhua Sect.

Wait, but...

Sir, you're not despising us, are you?

Well,

it seems that someone with unorthodox training like us

can only join

those evil sects.

Well, if we can't join the Power Gang,

then let's try the Twelve Serial Docks.

Take care, both of you.

Hold on.

I'm not despising you.

It's just that joining the Xiao family is quite complicated.

And it's not just up to me.

If you don't mind,

you could join the Shenzhou Sworn Brotherhood.

Shenzhou Sworn Brotherhood?

It has "zhou" (state) in its name.

Sounds like a great sect, doesn't it?

Yes.

Is it even more powerful than the Huanhua Sect?

As long as you have

a righteous and chivalrous heart, regardless of background,

everyone in Shenzhou calls each other brother.

A brotherhood that values chivalry and loyalty!

Then we're willing to join the Shenzhou Sworn Brotherhood!

From now on, we'll follow you, sir.

No need for that formality.

From now on, we'll call each other brothers.

Good!

Great!

You not only saved our lives

but also let us join the Shenzhou Sworn Brotherhood.

From now on, we'll follow your lead only!

You're our big brother.

Hello, Big Brother.

-Big Brother! -Big Brother!

Don't call me that.

We'll venture through the martial world together.

Your Shenzhou Sworn Brotherhood has such a random recruitment,

letting just any "stray cats" join.

I'd like to see

when trouble comes,

if they'll scatter like rats from a sinking ship.

What's with all this talk of cats and rats?

Which one of us looks like that?

Are you so fond of animals?

We definitely won't scatter like rats.

Exactly.

No, wait.

She's insulting us.

Not again!

Alright, let's go.

This is a bit over the top.

She really holds a grudge.

[Xiao Residence]

I should write a notice,

exposing all the dirty deeds that old scoundrel,

Qu Hanshan, has done.

The so-called "He Who Shakes Guangling"?

Bah!

Right, we need to reveal it to the world.

-Indeed! -Call all martial artists

to avenge the Free-Spirited Sage's death.

Exactly.

And we need to let the Power Gang know

that recruiting Qu Hanshan, but not us,

is one of their biggest losses.

Yes!

You really want to join the Power Gang?

I once considered it.

No, no.

Qiushui.

Qiushui.

Yiren.

Shinian.

What does this mean?

Yiren,

what are you doing?

They're all my friends.

What friends?

Friends who want to join the Power Gang?

Our Huanhua Sect is now besieged by the Power Gang.

Mother and Father are struggling to defend the Sword Manor.

Aren't you worried at all?

Yet you're making friends with these guys!

Yiren, you really got me wrong.

They are Tie Xingyue, Qiu Nangu,

and Miss Tang Fang from the Tang Sect.

If they hadn't escorted me all the way,

I couldn't have made it back here.

The Tang Sect?

I'm Tang Fang from the Tang Sect.

Greetings, Mr. Xiao.

We two don't have such official tokens.

But here are our names of integrity.

Tie Xingyue, the Fart King of Wujiangdu.

Qiu Nangu, the Iron Mouth.

I've never heard of the sect

called Wujiangdu.

It doesn't matter.

We've both joined

Big Brother's Shenzhou Sworn Brotherhood.

We're a great brotherhood.

We don't care about backgrounds, only chivalry.

Yiren,

they truly are my sworn brothers.

Were it not for them and Miss Tang risking their lives to help me,

I couldn't have escaped

from the Sword King of the Power Gang.

Are you talking about Mr. Qu, Qu Hanshan?

That's right.

Qu Hanshan has been pretending to be a heroic master for decades.

-He actually... -Shut up!

As He Who Shakes Guangling, Mr. Qu

has incredible prestige.

How dare you slander him like this?

I haven't properly questioned you about this matter yet!

Shinian, take good care of Miss Tang.

As for these other disreputable scums,

there's no need to invite them in.

Wait a minute.

Did he just insult us?

He called us disreputable scums!

You...

You are our big brother's eldest brother,

but you still can't speak to us so rudely.

We two also have our pride!

Drive these two out of here now!

Who do you think you are?

If we're not welcome here, we'll find somewhere else to go.

That's right.

Let's go have dinner.

Take care, Big Brother!

Let's go.

Yiren,

Qu Hanshan was framing me.

His mansion is the den of the Power Gang.

That's enough! Stop it!

Do you really want to force me to discipline you with the punishing rod?

Yiren.

Xueyu.

Please calm down.

Qiushui, you must be tired from your long journey.

Stay calm

and take your time to tell Yiren what happened.

Okay.

Xueyu, you know

the request for help is of great importance now.

But he's talking nonsense,

antagonizing everyone.

He's pushing our Xiao family into danger!

It's exactly because this matter is so important

that I believe Qiushui wouldn't speak recklessly,

nor would he mess with something this serious.

Yiren, I'm telling the truth.

Qu Hanshan is framing me like this

just in order to hide his true identity.

Mr. Gu Junshan discovered

the flaw in Kang Chuyu, the Nameless Demon,

so Qu Hanshan killed him on the spot.

The Free-Spirited Sage?

You mean Qu Hanshan is from the Power Gang,

and Kang Chuyu is the Nameless Demon?

If what you say is true,

they've been hiding perfectly all these years.

Even if the others in the martial world heard about this,

they would never believe it.

Yiren, this is true.

If you don't believe me,

Miss Tang and Zuoqiu can testify.

That's right!

Yuhan, the others, and I can all testify.

We all witnessed it with our own eyes.

Kang Chuyu killed Tang Rou!

Kang Chuyu was someone

who watched us grow up.

Yet he did such a shady thing.

He truly betrayed our parents' trust.

Yiren, Kaiyan,

why aren't you surprised at all?

About Kang...

About Kang Chuyu's matter.

Qu Hanshan has already explained it.

Mr. Qu discovered that

Kang Chuyu was the Nameless Demon from the Power Gang.

He managed to lure him to his residence for arrest,

but your brother came out of nowhere

and screwed it up.

Not only did the suspect escape,

but he was also besmirched.

That's impossible.

Do you think I can't tell right from wrong?

Alright,

I'll believe you in Kang Chuyu's matter for now.

But Mr. Qu has been holding sway over Guangling for over three decades.

People have always spoken highly of him.

Besides,

he was just trying to capture Kang Chuyu.

How could he possibly be one of the Power Gang?

I think your lack of experience in the martial world

made you act recklessly

before things were clear,

resulting in this misunderstanding with Mr. Qu.

Yiren,

it's really not a misunderstanding.

We saw it with our own eyes.

Qu Hanshan has deceived you.

I can testify too.

Everything Xiao Qiushui said is true.

Kang Chuyu and Qu Hanshan were in cahoots.

Miss Tang,

your Tang Sect and our Xiao family are both in Jinzhong.

But when the Sword Manor is under siege,

has your Tang Sect offered any help?

Your Tang Sect's attitude

has already disappointed our family deeply.

How can I believe your testimony now?

The Tang Sect is one thing,

and Miss Tang is another.

You can't mix them together.

Even Rou

died trying to save me.

Yiren, your words

truly disappoint me.

Young Master! Young Master!

There's a letter from Qu Hanshan.

[Challenge Letter]

It's a challenge letter from Qu Hanshan,

saying that you, Qiushui, are slandering him.

He wants to prove his innocence.

Otherwise, his standing in the martial world will be ruined.

So he wants you

to face him in a duel at his mansion tomorrow

to prove his innocence.

Qiushui cannot go.

If he goes, I'm afraid

he'll face a disaster.

Not to mention the gap in martial arts,

if Qiushui shows up for the fight,

he'll be positioned against the entire Guangling martial community.

Don't worry.

If someone has to go,

I'll go in his place.

But once we accept the challenge,

the consequences will be devastating.

Not only will Qiushui become everyone's enemy,

but the Xiao family will also be isolated without support.

Yiren,

don't you understand even now?

Qu Hanshan plans to kill and silence me.

But none of this matters right now.

The first priority is

to figure out how to rescue Father and Mother

and keep the Sword Manor safe.

So Yiren, Kaiyan, Xueyu,

we need to come up with a plan immediately

to help the Sword Manor out of danger in the fastest way.

Having offended Mr. Qu, you're going against

the martial community in Guangling.

Who else would help the Sword Manor at this point?

If that's the case,

we should leave Guangling right away

and go to Shaolin, Wudang, or the other sects in Wubei.

I believe with our parents' reputation in the martial world,

among their numerous friends,

there must be someone who will come to our aid.

Easier said than done.

Guangling and Wubei have always been

allies through thick and thin.

It's not as easy

as your armchair strategies.

Sort out your own affairs first!

Yiren!

Qiushui, the innocent will be proven innocent.

No more arguing.

The truth will come to light one day.

Mr. Xiao...

Enough, Miss Tang.

This is our family affair.

The Tang Sect should not interfere.

Qiushui, stay at home and behave yourself.

Don't cause any more trouble.

Shinian!

Yes!

Yiren.

Before we get to the bottom of it,

don't let the Third Young Master leave his room.

Understood.

How's it?

The Baizhan Sect, Pili Hall, and Xiaoyao Sect all claim

that their Sect Leaders are away.

There's no response.

We did meet with Master Ge from the Divine Blade Hall,

but he said

that if we couldn't clear up the misunderstanding with Mr. Qu,

he wouldn't help us.

Is there not a single person willing to step forward?

The two biggest shots in Guangling right now

are Mr. Qu and Mr. Liang.

But Mr. Liang has no fixed abode

and is hard to find.

All 16 major sects follow Qu Hanshan's lead.

Without his authorization,

no one dares to agree to help.

Let's not rush.

Hope the Bishan Sect

can show some kindness to our Xiao family.

Young Master, Miss Weng is here.

-Miss Weng. -Greetings, Miss Weng.

This way, please.

Please.

Miss Weng, is everything going

smoothly?

Our sect leader had agreed to help.

But who knew your brother, Xiao Qiushui,

would end up holding such a serious grudge with Mr. Qu?

Even if my sect fellows won't come,

I will still do my utmost to help.

But my strength alone is limited,

so I can hardly help you turn the tables.

And I'm curious how Qiushui is so sure

that Mr. Qu is the Sword King of the Power Gang.

Qiushui said that yesterday at Qu's residence,

he heard Mr. Qu admit to being the Sword King

and saw him kill Mr. Gu Junshan.

How is that possible?

Isn't Gu Junshan still alive and well?

What?

Today they just had a discussion with my sect leader.

I saw them off in person.

Greetings, Miss Weng.

Xiaoyi.

I found something.

Tie Xingyue and Qiu Nangu,

who followed Qiushui earlier,

used to keep talking about joining the Power Gang

when they were in Jinzhong.

And they have close ties with the Burrow Demon

from the Power Gang.

Could these two really be members of the Power Gang,

deliberately staying by Qiushui's side to mislead him?

Seems like Mr. Qu was telling the truth.

Qiushui was deceived by some villains

and failed to tell right from wrong.

It's too early to draw conclusions now.

Qiushui might have fallen into a trap

and didn't mean to do it.

What matters most now

is to prevent things from getting worse.

We must resolve

the conflict with Mr. Qu.

The key is to seek help from Guangling.

We cannot make the Xiao family

antagonize everyone at this moment.

But now Mr. Qu insists on a duel to the death.

How can we remedy this?

Years ago,

Mr. Qu and I caught a spy

from the Northern Wasteland together.

We built some rapport during that cooperation.

How about I go try to mediate?

If he relents,

there's still room for negotiation regarding the aid to the Sword Manor.

Thank you so much, Miss Weng.

Liang, please take Miss Weng to rest.

This way, please.

Kaiyan,

then we should go apologize to Mr. Qu as soon as possible.

Yiren,

don't you find this matter fishy?

Qiushui always likes to fool around.

He does act weirdly at times.

But he's always been vigilant.

I never expected him to be so easily deceived by someone.

We can't blame it all on Qiushui.

After all, the Power Gang came well-prepared.

They're just too cunning.

Let's go to Qu's Mansion first to take a look.

Let's do our best to resolve the conflict with Mr. Qu.

If what Qiushui said is true,

then he'll certainly give himself away at some point.

Miss Tang.

Miss Tang, without the Young Master's permission,

you can't go in to see the Third Young Master.

I just want to go in and talk to him.

Why can't I?

Qiushui, this door is heavily guarded.

I'll figure out another way later.

See you soon.

[Weng Yueying lied that Free-Spirited Sage had been to the Bishan Sect.]

[Xiao Yiren trusts her and is going to seek peace with Qu Hanshan.]

Could it be that even Miss Weng is a member of the Power Gang?

Qu Hanshan is unbelievably powerful.

No,

I can't sit back and do nothing.

Let me go.

I need to see Yiren.

Without the Young Leader's order,

we can't let you out.

Please don't make things hard for us.

Make way!

Stop.

Xueyu, are you here to let me out?

Without Yiren's permission,

Shinian won't let you leave.

Xueyu,

the news about the Free-Spirited Sage is fake.

I saw him killed by Qu Hanshan with my own eyes.

If Miss Weng wasn't being deceived,

then she must be one of the Power Gang.

Qiushui, we don't have any other evidence

to convince Yiren.

And the others won't believe what you say.

If you're right,

and even Miss Weng from Bishan Sect

is also one of the Power Gang,

then I'm afraid there's no one left

in the entire martial world we can trust.

Anyway, Xueyu, you can't trust anyone

working with Qu Hanshan.

I won't go into details now.

I need to hurry and stop Yiren.

Qiushui, listen to me.

Everyone in Guangling and Wubei has rejected our request for help.

If you go now, aren't you walking into a trap?

So, Xueyu,

you don't believe me either?

Of course I believe you.

You've been strong-minded since childhood.

Although I can't fully understand

what you mean most of the time,

I know how treacherous people in the martial world are.

Despite Yiren's years of experience in the martial world,

he can still misjudge people.

So, Xueyu,

we must stop Yiren

before he falls into the enemy's trap.

I see, Qiushui.

Calm down.

I'll go talk to Yiren again

and talk things over with him.

Okay.

Never thought that Qu Hanshan would strike first.

That's crazy.

Now that I'm confined here,

how can I be his match?

No, I can't think this way.

No matter how powerful he is, he can also slip up.

I need to try to get the Sect Leader's Token from Yiren.

And it might give me a chance

to rewrite the story

and get rid of the Sword King and the Power Gang.

Master.

Xiao Yiren is waiting outside and insists on seeing you.

Liu Suifeng is indeed a great schemer.

Xiao Yiren really

came to beg for my help again.

The Xiaos

always disguise themselves under the name of chivalry.

Let's use this to deliver the final fatal blow to Xiao Qiushui.

Did it go well?

How's it? What did Mr. Qu say?

Things didn't go smoothly at first.

But after Yiren's heartfelt persuasion,

Mr. Qu finally decided to gather the sixteen sects

tomorrow at Top Fairness Forest to discuss aiding the Sword Manor.

That's great.

Are you sure he's trustworthy?

I watched him closely for a long time

and didn't notice anything wrong.

He should be trustworthy.

But now Mr. Qu is determined

to have Qiushui apologize to him in person.

It seems that he won't easily let go

of the smear on his reputation.

Will he make things difficult for Qiushui?

At this point,

Qiushui will have to bear with it.

Never mind. Let it be a lesson for him.

Besides, Mr. Qu is a highly esteemed figure.

In front of all the sect leaders,

he won't go too far, I think.

Okay.

Then tomorrow, you and Kaiyan

escort Qiushui to Top Fairness Forest.

I'll continue organizing the aid

and make all necessary arrangements.

Once the matter at Top Fairness Forest is settled,

we'll immediately join forces and head back for reinforcements.

Yiren, please make sure you protect Qiushui well tomorrow.

Rest assured.

Yiren and Kaiyang will both be there.

They'll definitely keep Qiushui safe.

Don't worry too much.

[Sect Leader's Token]

The Sect Leader's Token?

He wants us to steal the Sect Leader's Token?

That's ridiculous!

What does Qiushui want the Sect Leader's Token for?

He didn't tell me.

Although he usually acts wild and unruly,

seeming unreliable,

he always knows what he's doing.

He must have his reasons for doing this.

I agree.

Being predictable

isn't Big Brother's style.

I'll continue to support him this time.

Of course!

Big Brother trusts us so much.

We definitely won't let him down.
