Original subtitles

Of course, I can't show you any mercy.

Do you think I don't know

what you've done all these years?

When you were chased by your foes,

Xiao Xingchen saved you with kindness.

But you betrayed his kindness.

Turning living people into puppets,

you deceived Xiao Xingchen

and now made Song Lan look like this.

You didn't even spare a little girl like Jing!

You are still laughing?

How could you still laugh?

He is so disgusted with you,

yet you still wanted to bring him to life

just for your crappy game!

I want nothing of the kind.

Then why did you kneel down and beg me

to repair his spiritual cognition?

Why did I do so?

Didn't he want to be a virtuous person?

I just won't let him do what he wanted.

You hate him that much?

Then why did you kill Chang Ping?

Why did I kill Chang Ping?

Haven't I told you already, Yiling Patriarch?

I said I was going to wipe out the entire Chang Clan,

that I wouldn't even leave a dog behind!

That's a great excuse you came up with.

However, the timing doesn't make any sense.

Someone like you who seeks revenge for the pettiest things

and murders in such ruthless ways

wouldn't have waited so many years

to finish off one clan, would you?

You know the reason

why you killed Chang Ping.

Then, tell me.

What do I know?

What do I know?

You didn't just kill him.

Why did you choose Lingchi, the lingering death,

a torture method as punishment?

Why did you use Frostwork Sword

instead of your own Looming Disaster?

Why did you gouge his eyes out

and turn him into the way Xiao Xingchen looked like?

Nonsense!

That's all nonsense!

It's revenge.

Why on earth would I let him die comfortably?

You were indeed seeking revenge,

but whose revenge were you truly seeking?

What a joke.

If you wanted vengeance,

you should've executed Lingchi

on yourself!

The little delinquent has such a high vitality.

It's as if he can't feel pain at all.

I still have to psych him to say a few more words.

But I'm really curious.

Even if you have a shard of the Yin Iron,

I'm afraid you won't be able to restore half of the amulet.

Let me guess.

Someone must be helping you, right?

What about the friend

who is good at acting and makes you feel inferior?

Why didn't he show up to help you?

Why don't you say something?

Lan Zhan, hurry and attack where the pole knocks!

Little Blind.

I've cut your tongue and taken your eyes out.

You've been hiding all these years.

But now you dare to come out.

Aren't you scared that I'll break you into pieces?

Go to hell!

Lan Zhan. The ghost-faced man...

It's a pity that the amulet they made was taken away.

I stabbed him three times,

but I let him escape in the fog.

At least

we know that Xue Yang

and the ghost-faced man are in the same group.

Maybe they have the same manipulator.

Lan Zhan.

What are you thinking?

The ghost-faced man's swordsmanship is strange.

It was born out of the Lan Clan of Gusu,

but has a unique skill of the Jin Clan of Lanling.

They're here.

Hanguang Jun, you're finally back.

Master Mo, this is...

Don't worry.

He has already regained consciousness.

Master Mo, they...

I'll tell you later.

The rest

is for them to clean up.

SNOW FLICK

Was it fun?

Yes.

Of course, it was fun.

Taoist Xiao Xingchen,

do you want to know

how I broke this finger?

-No. -But I want to share it anyway!

If you still think it's my fault

when I'm finished,

you can do whatever you want.

Do you remember the story I told you

about the child and his candy?

The child really wanted

to eat that candy.

So he kept on chasing the cart.

He waved his arms

in front of the cart to stop them.

But the man was too irritated by his crying.

Snatching the driver's whip,

he lashed the child's face and threw him onto the ground.

And then,

the wheels of the cart milled over the child's hand,

one finger at a time.

He was seven!

The bones of his left hand were crushed,

while one finger was milled into battered flesh on the spot!

Xiao Xingchen,

you were so just, so stern

when you brought me to Carp Tower!

This man was Chang Ping's father.

Chang Cian broke one of your fingers in the past.

If you wanted revenge,

you could've just broken one of his fingers as well.

If you really took the matter to heart,

you could've broken two or even all ten!

You could've even cut off an entire arm of his.

Why did you have to wipe out his entire clan?

Are you telling me that a single finger of yours

was worth more than 50 human lives?

Of course.

My fingers were my own, while those lives were other peoples'.

No matter how many lives, we wouldn't still be even.

It was only around 50. How could it have possibly

been equal to one of my fingers?

Then what about the others?

Why did you wipe out the Snow White Pavilion?

Why did you blind Zichen?

Then why did you stop me?

Why did you hinder what I wanted to do?

Why did you stand up for those dregs of the Chang Clan?

Xiao Xingchen,

this was your fault ever since the beginning.

You shouldn't have meddled with other people's business.

Right or wrong, kindness or hatred are not clearly distinguished,

so how could you possibly understand?

Or maybe you shouldn't have left the mountain in the first place.

Your martial mentor, Baoshan Sanren, was indeed insightful.

Why didn't you listen to her and obediently cultivate in the mountains?

If you couldn't understand human affairs

and this world, then you shouldn't have come!

Xue Yang.

You are really disgusting.

Xiao Xingchen.

This is why I hate you.

The people that I hate the most

are the ones like you who say they're righteous,

who think they're virtuous.

Stupid, naive, dumb idiots

like you who think the world's better

just because you did something good!

You think I'm disgusting?

Very well.

Would I care if anybody thinks I'm disgusting?

But...

are you in the position to be disgusted by me?

Didn't we go out

and kill some evil corpses every few days recently?

Why are you bringing this up now?

Nothing, really.

It's just really unfortunate

that you're blind.

You dug out both of your eyes.

So you couldn't see the men that you killed.

They were so scared and in so much pain

when you pierced them through their hearts.

Some even kneeled down, cried, and kowtowed for you to spare

the young and elderly of their families.

If I hadn't cut off all of their tongues,

I bet they would've been wailing and shouting,

"Spare us."

You are lying to me.

You are lying to me.

You tricked me.

-There is no way. You are lying. -Yes.

-You tricked me. -I deceived you.

I've been deceiving you all along.

Who would've known that

you would believe me when I was lying to you,

but now you wouldn't believe me when I'm speaking the truth?

Shut up!

Shut up!

All right!

I'll be quiet!

If you still don't believe me,

then pass a few moves with the one standing behind you.

Make him tell you

if I'm deceiving you or not!

SNOW FLICK

Zichen.

Zichen.

Is that you?

What happened?

Say something.

Say something.

Can't you say something?

What's wrong?

You're so touched to see

your old friend again that you're even crying!

Do you want to give him a hug?

Saving the world?

What a joke.

You can't even save yourself!

Xiao Xingchen.

You couldn't do anything.

You've failed miserably.

You're the only one to blame.

You asked for all of this!

Please. Let me go.

Didn't you want to stab me to death just a moment ago?

Why are you begging me to let you go now?

The dead are better than the living.

Dead ones will be more obedient.

Xiao Xingchen.

If you don't get up,

I'll make your dear friend, Song Lan, murder people.

I'll strangle that little blind Jing and leave her corpse

in the fields

for the wild dogs to gobble her up.

Xiao Xingchen!

Spirit-capture pouch.

Spirit-capture pouch.

Right.

I need a spirit-capture pouch.

Once upon a time, there was a little child

who liked sweets very much.

But because he had no parents nor money,

he could never have such things.

So he'd been dreaming

if only someone could give him a candy

every day.

How could there be such a thing in the world?

Jing.

Lady Jing...

GRAVE OF JING

That Xue Yang is such a filthy scumbag!

Punishment by death was too light for him!

If Fairy were here,

I would've made her chomp him to death!

Lan Zhan.

Fortunately...

What?

Go back

to Coffin Town.

Finally, there is a response.

Wait for us here.

We'll be right back.

Understood.

COFFIN TOWN

Song.

This is his left spiritual cognition.

Lady Jing has passed away.

We buried her outside the town.

THANKS A LOT

What do you intend on doing after?

ROAM THIS WORLD WITH FROSTWORK

EXORCISE EVIL BEINGS ALONGSIDE XINGCHEN

Xiao Xingchen, the Moon in Breeze.

Song Zichen, the Gentry despite Frost.

I wonder if the two of them

would be able to meet each other again.

COFFIN TOWN

Suppressing Circle.

Lan Zhan, be careful.

Sure enough, it's a sign of the Stygian Tiger Amulet.

It's him!

TANZHOU

This is where people should live.

Do you agree, Sizhui?

Where is Sizhui?

Sizhui.

What are you doing, Sizhui?

You like that? How old are you?

I haven't played with that since I was three.

It's none of your business!

We can buy whatever we want,

and it doesn't cost your clan's money!

I will take a look around there.

Sizhui, there's no need to look at that.

We have all this stuff in Gusu.

Yes, I know.

-You can leave first. I'll follow you. -All right then.

Jingyi.

Do you remember what you were doing before you were three?

Who would remember such things?

It's nothing more than

playing in Cloud Recesses and so on.

Why did you ask?

Nothing.

Just checking.

Sizhui, look at that.

Yuan.

Hey, kid, do you like it?

Yes.

Lan Zhan.

You like rabbits, don't you?

Lan Zhan.

Let's buy it.

Okay.

Hanguang Jun.

Hanguang Jun.

-Hanguang Jun. -Hanguang Jun.

What's the matter?

Zewu Jun

has arrived

and is waiting for you at the inn.

TANZHOU INN

Master Mo, this lantern...

You can keep it.

Seems like we've got some business to take care of.

Are you sure

you saw Nie Mingjue's body?

In Coffin Town under the Circle,

we saw the headless corpse,

which was well-preserved.

Even the clothes did not decay.

Blade Spirit didn't turn into

his original appearance until he saw the body.

Nie Mingjue.

He really is Red Blade Master.

-Xichen. -Wangji.

Enough said.

Back then,

I witnessed Nie Mingjue

go through Qi deviation at Carp Tower with my own eyes.

And all his meridians were broken.

Though I haven't heard from him

in all these years,

I've prepared myself for the worst.

Zewu Jun.

I have one more thing to ask.

Go ahead, please.

Hanguang Jun just said that we had dealt with

the ghost-faced man who robbed Xue Yang's amulet in Coffin Town.

But what Hanguang Jun didn't tell you was that

this person not only knows your clan's swordsmanship very well

but can use some unique skills of the Jin Clan as well.

Does Zewu Jun know who he might be?

This ghost-faced man

not only knows the swordsmanship of the Lan Clan and Jin Clan,

but he's also secretive with his trace and identity.

He not only attempted to rob Blade Spirit in Yueyang,

but also helped Xue Yang to commit murder in Coffin Town.

This person

obviously didn't want us to find Red Blade Master's body

and was afraid that

we would see the amulet restored by Xue Yang.

Let us leave aside

the secrets this person doesn't want us to know.

As it turns out,

this is someone who is aware of the secrets behind

Blades Shrine in the Nie Clan.

Someone who's quite close

with the Lan Clan of Gusu.

Someone who has a rather complicated history with Red Blade Master.

He wouldn't have done such things.

Zewu Jun.

The incidents you had when investigating the Blade Spirit

and encountering the ghost-faced man

all happened within this month.

During this time, he has been

discussing matters with me every single night.

Just a couple of days ago,

we were planning the Cultivation Conference together

that was supposed to be held at Lanling next month.

He couldn't have been in two places at once.

So the ghost-faced man

could not have been him.

What if he used a Portal Talisman?

One must cultivate the Portal Technique

in order to use the Portal Talisman.

It is rather difficult to do so.

He has never shown signs of cultivating it.

Besides, one must expend large quantities

of spiritual powers to use this technique.

However, we went night hunting together just a few days ago,

and he was in excellent condition.

I can be certain that

he has never used the Portal Talisman.

He did not have to go himself.

Zewu Jun.

You are fully aware

of who the most suspicious person is.

You're just refusing to admit it.

Yes, I know.

All these years, the world

holds quite a few misconceptions about him.

But...

I trust what I have seen throughout all these years.

I believe he is not that kind of person.

It wasn't difficult for me to understand

why Zewu Jun defended him.

To be honest,

even I didn't have a terrible opinion

of this person.

Weren't we talking about Xue Yang just then?

Why are we bringing up Wei Ying?

Just think about what Xue Yang has done.

He is worse than an animal.

Wei Ying is even more disgusting

compared to Xue Yang.

Simply by letting those crooks live would be an act of evil.

And they should all be killed!

Why are you so angry?

Sizhui didn't say that Wei Wuxian shouldn't be killed.

He was just saying that the person

of demonic cultivation may not all be like Xue Yang.

Do you really have to make a scene?

Didn't he say something else?

"The person of demonic cultivation

may not use the power to do evil!"

Who is the "person of demonic cultivation"?

Tell me!

Besides Wei Ying, who else is there?

Master Wei.

Don't take it to heart.

It turned out that Zewu Jun has already recognized me.

Excuse my manners.

I just confirmed it.

Then Zewu Jun should also know

that it's no coincidence that the Blade Spirit

reappeared in Mo's Manor.

Please think it over carefully, Zewu Jun.
