Original subtitles

Are you awake?

Okay.

So it is around five in the morning now.

I thought you'd feel nervous without the headband,

so I put it on for you.

I swam around at the bottom of the pond just now.

I think that guy really smart.

He will find us before a joss stick burns out.

I haven't found the hole that Jiang Cheng mentioned.

I am afraid

it has been plugged up by the monster.

With your wound,

you shouldn't go into the water.

I'm not so delicate.

But you...

How is the medicine Wen Ning gave me?

Jiang Cheng has been gone for so long.

I don't know how long it will take before he finds reinforcements.

I guess we have to stay here for a period of time.

We're still in the middle of a fight against that monster.

What do you think the monster looks like?

A tortoise.

A big tortoise.

There's a mythical creature with a similar shape.

A mythical creature?

The mythical creature you mentioned is Xuanwu, right?

Xuanwu is also called Xuanming.

A water deity that is the combination of a tortoise and a snake.

Exactly.

Is there a mythical creatures with a mouth filled with ugly tushes?

And it even eats humans.

There's a big difference between imagination and reality!

It is not the real Xuanwu.

But I have heard that there was a fake Xuanwu.

It is similar to this monster.

A fake Xuanwu.

What is that?

Do you still remember what Master Lan Yi mentioned before?

The Tortoise of Slaughter.

The Tortoise of Slaughter?

FUMO PAVILION

Xue Chonghai controlled an ancient monster,

the Tortoise of Slaughter.

I remember.

As you've mentioned, it's similar to this big tortoise.

Could it be that this is the big tortoise

Xue Chonghai left hundreds of years ago, the Tortoise of Slaughter?

That's right.

Never mind.

Whatever it is.

We have been told to be chivalrous and venture together.

If we can kill the big tortoise today,

then we are going to get some chivalric fame for ourselves.

Even if unfortunately, we get killed by the monster,

would would be death by a creature aged hundreds of thousands...

No.

Death by a big monster that's ten thousand years old

is not shameful even if people find out, right?

The Chord Assassination Technique.

The guqin has seven strings arranged thickest to thinest,

which can be split and combined.

It cuts through bones and meat like mud.

We can break through it from within.

I agree with breaking through it from within.

But according to what I have heard, the Chord Assassination Technique

of your clan is limited to the inside of the tortoise shell,

which can hamper your performance.

Moreover, due to your leg injury,

the effect of the Chord Assassination Technique will be greatly reduced.

Listen to me.

The shell of the Tortoise of Slaughter is as solid as a fort.

The scarfskin is extremely hard.

It seems impossible to break.

But moreover,

the fleshy part in the shell

is likely to be fragile.

I can creep inside this tortoise shell

to find its weakness

and focus on attacking it.

I'll force it out of the tortoise shell.

Once it is out of the tortoise shell,

you can use the Chord Assassination Technique.

Let's attack from both the inside and outside

and fight it to our last breath.

Let's see who will die first.

Be careful.

How is it?

Luckily, you didn't go in.

Even if the smell doesn't make you vomit,

you could faint from the stench.

Lan Zhan.

The monster is so horrible.

It not only eats human flesh,

it also digests spiritual cognition.

Just like the Yin Iron.

The resentment is so strong.

It seems it's the sword

that trapped the Tortoise of Slaughter here.

Lan Zhan!

Wei Ying!

Wei Ying.

Wake up.

Congratulations, Father!

The power of the puppets has increased.

The unification of all the main clans can be expected soon.

Tell Wen Xu to find Xue Yang.

And

if there is anyone related to Xue Yang near Yueyang and Qinghe,

you should check them out.

Yes.

But, Father,

There's something I don't understand.

You have three shards of the Yin Iron.

Why still search for the last one?

As powerful as three shards are,

those puppets can never

be manipulated without the last one.

I see.

In case Xue Yang makes puppets at the same time,

even if we have the power of the three shards,

we can't counter him.

I'm prepared to do it.

Go ahead.

Is it dead?

Lan Zhan, is it dead?

Yes.

Yes?

Is it dead?

Yes, it is.

Lan Zhan.

Just now I heard

many voices screaming in my ears,

which knocked me unconscious.

Am I dreaming?

No.

Little did I think before

that one day,

I would get to see Second Young Master Lan acting so concerned like this.

Lan Zhan.

I didn't think I would survive this.

Wei Ying.

You have a fever.

That's so soothing, Lan Zhan.

It's so boring.

Why hasn't Jiang Cheng showed up and rescued me yet?

It's so quiet.

Lan Zhan.

Can you sing a song for me?

I know you won't ignore me.

SONGFENG SHIYUE PAVILION

It sounds so pleasant.

It sounds so pleasant.

Lan Zhan.

What's the name of this song?

Wei Wuxian. If you're awake, get up already.

You are so heavy.

Even the stone was lighter than you.

It's you.

Do not get me wrong.

I'm not here for you.

Anyway, I should thank you a lot.

Wei Wuxian.

You're awake?

Jiang Cheng.

Wei Wuxian.

You're finally awake.

Jiang Cheng.

Here you are at last.

It's been many days since you escaped.

How about Lan Zhan?

He left.

He left?

He's still injured.

Who didn't get any injuries?

Now the Lan Clan of Gusu is in a mess.

He went back by himself.

Then he...

Wei Wuxian!

Why don't you thank me first?

Do you know that in order to save you,

Young Master Jin and I hurried on with our journey without sleep for seven days?

Seven days?

It's been that long?

Exactly.

The nearest regions, Gusu and Qinghe,

were all occupied by the Wen Clan.

We all had to go to Lanling first.

But this time, we should thank Young Master Jin.

If Young Master Jin hadn't persuaded Clan Leader Jin

into fighting against the Wen Clan,

we couldn't have brought anyone to save you.

I don't have a sword.

If I had chosen to return to Yunmeng,

it would've been more than seven days.

Yes, I forgot that none of you have a sword.

How about Wen Chao?

How about his group?

Didn't they stop you?

Strange as it is,

I don't know what's happening to the Wen Clan lately.

Wen Chao and Wen Xu were sent away.

It seems that they are looking for something.

Otherwise, how could we dig the hole and take you out of the cave so easily?

Anyway,

you saved us this time.

Thank you very much.

Young Master Jiang.

Now that they have been rescued, let's get out of here.

The state of the other clans

joining forces to fight against the Wen Clan has been decided.

Other surviving disciples have gathered in Lanling.

Maybe this will attract Wen Ruohan’s attention.

Although nothing happened for now,

we have to be prepared for the Wen Clan's retaliation.

Wei Wuxian and I will rush back as soon as possible

to persuade my father

and discuss how to suppress the Wen Clan together.

Great.

Let's part ways here.

Take care.

That was unexpected.

Jin Zixuan is really responsible.

Let's go.

Wei Wuxian, come on.

Young Master Wen.

Someone just reported that...

Say it!

That someone had seen

two young masters of the Jing and Jang Clans

bring a dozen men to Muxi Mountain.

They...

What are they doing here again?

Are they here to save Wei Wuxian?

It's been so many days,

and Wei and Lan are with that monster tortoise.

I think they're here to claim Wei Wuxian's dead body.

You two.

Go to the cave and have a look at Lan Wangji and Wei Wuxian

and check whether they are dead or not.

But...

Move!

-Understood. -Understood.

Wen Zhuliu.

You go ahead with Jiaojiao.

Go to Yunmeng and watch them closely.

Report anything that happens to me.

Yes, Young Master.

Wei Wuxian.

This time, even if you're alive,

I'm not going to spare you.

An archer

should grab the bow and pull the string to shoot,

relax the shoulders and tighten the arm,

and wait for the right time.

This way, you won't miss even one shot.

Awesome!

Master! From now on, I will study hard to learn archery from you.

Clan Leader Jiang, I want to shoot kites too.

Cheng. Wuxian.

-Wuxian! -Young Master Jiang!

Yanli!

You’re back!

-Wuxian! -Wuxian.

Wuxian!

-Wuxian! -Wuxian!

LOTUS PIER

You’re awake.

Yanli.

Great. Your fever is finally gone.

Yanli, I'm thirsty.

All right. Don't worry.

Yanli, here's the soup that you boiled.

I'm bringing it over.

Here.

Here.

Lotus root and ribs soup!

It's good!

Yanli.

The lotus root and ribs soup you made is the best in the world!

You don't know that,

those days in the cave

when I was hungry,

all I could think about was the soup you make.

Take your time. Don't finish it in a rush.

There's more in the pot.

It's good!

Wuxian.

How are you?

Do you feel better?

Don't get out of bed.

Clan Leader Jiang, I feel much better now.

I want Yanli to wipe my mouth.

Don't you have hands?

My hands are too heavy to lift up.

I'll make some other things for you.

Wuxian.

You've suffered a lot this time.

Clan Leader Jiang,

I'm actually okay.

I just stayed in that cave for a few days.

But it was Jiang Cheng who has suffered a lot to save me.

Well done.

Congratulations.

Congratulations on what?

What a pity that you weren't there as well.

Otherwise, you could've taken some of the credit as well.

You could've chatted with me

and chased the boredom away.

Good heavens,

sitting face-to-face with Lan Zhan those days

almost bored me to death.

You deserved it.

You shouldn't have played the hero and cared about all that crap.

-If from the beginning, you didn't-- -Jiang Cheng.

Do you know which was inappropriate in what you have said?

Yes.

Clan Leader Jiang.

It's all right.

He's just angry and speaking carelessly.

Cheng,

there are some things that can't be said even if you're angry.

If you say them,

it means that

you still don't understand the motto of the Jiang Clan

-and that you still don't-- -Yes.

He doesn't understand, but why does it matter

as long as Wei Ying understands?

Attempting the impossible is what he's good at, isn't it?

Fooling around even though he knew that it would bring trouble to his clan?

What are you doing here?

How funny it is

that I am asked such a thing!

Clan Leader Jiang,

do you still remember

that I'm also the host of Lotus Pier?

Do you still remember

that every inch of land here is my territory?

Do you know which of the two men standing and sitting is your son?

Of course, I do.

So you do,

but there's no use in just simply knowing.

Wei Ying, you really can't take

not stirring up some trouble for even one day, can you?

If I had known that, I would've made him stay in Lotus Pier properly

and not allowed him outside.

Could Wen Chao really have dared to

do anything to the two young masters of the Lan and Jin Clans?

Even if he dared to,

it would mean that they ran out of luck.

Since when was it your turn to play the hero?

I'm saying this right now.

You can just wait and see.

One day, he'll definitely get our clan into some big trouble!

Enough!

Let's talk when we get back.

Talk about what?

Get back where?

I'll talk here and now.

I have nothing to be ashamed of, anyway.

Jiang Cheng, come over here.

Clan Leader Jiang,

it seems that there are some things I have to say.

Look carefully,

this is your own son,

the future leader of Lotus Pier.

Even if you frown upon him

just because I was the one who gave birth to him,

his surname is still Jiang!

I know you have heard

how people gossip

that you still haven't moved on

from a certain Sanren even after so many years have passed.

He regards the son of his old friend as his own son.

They're speculating

if Wei Ying is your--

Yu Ziyuan!

Jiang Fengmian!

Do you think things will change if you raise your voice?

Do you think I don't know you?

You!

Stop!

I'm not done talking.

Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng!

Jiang Cheng!

Answer me if you heard me! Are you looking for a fight?

Go back to bed and lie down properly!

I can't do that.

We need to set things straight!

You really shouldn't listen to that nonsense.

What nonsense?

Those things would dirty my mouth if I say them.

Wait for me!

Anyway,

both my parents are real people in this world.

I don't want others assigning me to other households!

Listen.

Let's be honest.

Don't hide things so sulkily in your heart.

You're Clan Leader Jiang's own son,

the future leader of the Jiang Clan.

Of course, Clan Leader Jiang would be stricter towards you.

But I'm different.

I'm the son of someone else.

Both my parents are good friends of Clan Leader Jiang.

Of course, he would cut me some slack.

You understand that, don't you?

He's not stricter towards me.

He just doesn't like me.

How can there be anyone who doesn't like his own son?

Stop thinking of such things!

Those who have loose mouths,

I'll beat them up so hard that their mothers won't recognize them.

Such a man exists.

He doesn't like my mom, so he doesn't like me either.

I know.

I know that he doesn't like my personality and that I'm not the heir he wants.

He thinks I don't understand the motto of the Jiang Clan

and I don't have the spirit of the clan in me. Those are all true!

You and Lan Wangji killed the Tortoise of Slaughter,

and bathed in blood! How great!

But what about me?

I had also been running around for days, completely exhausted

without a second of rest!

The motto means nothing.

I'm telling you.

Do you have to follow it just because it's a motto?

Look at the principles of the Lan Clan. There are over 3,000.

If people followed every single one of them,

would they even be alive?

And who said that being a clan leader

means you have to go along with the style of the clan?

I don't believe that the many clan leaders in the Jiang clan

were all the same.

Even the Lan Clan of Gusu

had a black sheep like Master Lan Yi,

but who could deny her position and her abilities?

When talking about the famous gentry of the Lan Clan,

who could skip her?

Who could skip her Chord Assassination Technique?

So just don't think about it.

In the future, you'll be the clan leader,

and I'll be your subordinate like your father and my father.

So if the Lan Clan of Gusu has its Twin Jades,

the Jiang Clan of Yunmeng will have its Twin Heroes!

So no one can say you don't deserve it.

Got it?

Even yourself.

If there's someone who says so, I'll beat him up.

Look at yourself now.

Who can you beat up?

Jiang Cheng.

You're hurting so much now. Why did you play the hero back then?

Serves you right. That will teach you a lesson.

Was I playing the hero then?

I had no other choice!

Jiang Cheng.

Do you think we'll meet them again?

How would I know?
