Original subtitles

Adapted from the novel Zhu Xian written by Xiao Ding

The sword has fallen

the wild grasslands are dark as night

The moon idles away

The specks of obsession become great wisdom

The path is predestined

The disquiet perturbs the meridians again

How can a powerless law break the Five Aggregates and Ten Directions?

The world burns

Malevolent energy rises fanning the raging flames

One is mindful

Burn my body to ashes to extinguish this disaster

How can I choose what I cannot obtain?

Draw your sword, prepare to ask immortals

how to cultivate a heart without delusions

Why give me grief, anger me and create resentment?

Sigh at the longstanding opposition between both sides

this complicated prejudice that is hard to resolve

I am not afraid to shake the Heavens, I am willing to

Flying on the sword high in the sky

coming and going, roaring my will

I only hope that among those who worry or laugh at me, some have pity

I'll bend myself to break though this endless darkness

traverse every kind of predestined fate

Wait for me to return

like a young man again

ZHU XIAN Immortal Executioner

Episode 24

Today

is the day you Daoist pretenders die

You...

What are you doing?

Sect Leader

What am I doing?

I am plotting against you

Can't you see that?

Cang Song!

Have you gone crazy?

How dare you plot against the Sect Leader

and betray the Azure Cloud Sect?

I, crazy?

I went crazy long ago

Back then,

in this very Clear Jade Hall

when I saw what happened to Senior Brother Wan

I went crazy

You

You

Can you tell me with good conscience

who should have

taken the position of Sect Leader

Should it have been Senior Brother Wan

or the despicable Dao Xuan?!

For the past 100 years,

apart from me,

who else still remembers the

two magnificent and heroic talents

of the Azure Cloud Sect

who struck fear in the demon sect

one of whom was Wan Jian Yi?

Why isn't anyone saying anything?

Is it because you feel guilty?

Senior Brother Cang Song,

so many years have passed since then

why can you not let this go?

Senior Brother Wan

was like a father and brother to me

He single-handedly trained me

He also risked his life to save me in the wilderness

My life

was already his

It is abominable that 100 years ago

I could not save him

Senior Brother Wan's matter

was a misunderstanding-

Shut up!

Senior Brother Wan did you a lot of favors

Now that you are a leader

you are speaking up for Dao Xuan

How are you any different from

a dog who wags his tail when given food?

You!

Dao Xuan!

I will have you pay for this debt in blood

Today, I will not only kill you

to avenge Senior Brother Wan

I also want you to

personally witness the destruction

of the Azure Cloud Sect!

I did not expect that you would still

remember that contentious case back then

Then you can try me

and see if I deserve to be the Sect Leader

Rubbish!

You do not deserve it

It is true that

back then, the Azure Cloud always regarded you and

Senior Brother Wan as the two peerless talents

I was indeed no match for you

but someone will dispose of you

The fiends from the demon sect have invaded!

How dare you collude with the demon sect?!

That's right!

I am colluding with the demon sect

I do not care even if

I were sent to hell for this

He has gone crazy

He has really gone crazy

It's him

He must be the one who massacred Grass Temple Village

You...

Junior Brother Tian

Now that it has come to this,

I can only violate the ancestral rule by bringing out

the ancient sword, Immortal Executioner

Senior Brother

No matter what you all think of me,

please be careful

Junior Brother Shang

Junior Brother Tian Yun

Junior Sister Shui Yue

Follow Junior Brother Zeng

and defend the Clear Jade Hall to the death

Understood

Disciples of Revolving Wind Peak,

fight off the enemy with me!

Sect Leader

we shall

go assist our fellow cultivators

Very well

I shall protect Sect Leader Dao Xuan

Don't you think of escaping!

Cang Song

do not persist with this folly!

If you obstruct me again,

do not blame me for being impolite!

Xiao Fan

follow the others to the back mountain

and protect the Sect Leader

Understood

Cang Song!

Do not persist in this action

You are in no position to lecture me!

Brother Shangguan

The demon sect set an ambush up ahead

Leave

Leave now

Rest here

You...

You are not...

You...

You...

Sect Leader Dao Xuan

Where are you going in such a hurry?

What are you doing here?

I'm here to escort you of course

The Farewell Awl?

You are Zhou Yin from the Longevity Hall?

Looks like you are not that ignorant

The two paths here

lead to the sacred areas of the Azure Cloud Sect, namely,

the Mystical Moon Cave and the Ancestral Hall

Both of you must guard them

Sect Leader, don't worry

Go now

Leave this to us

All right

Yu Yang Zi

Yin & Yang Mirror

Azure Cloud youngsters

come beg for mercy and prepare to die

You are the ones who should die

Protect the Azure Cloud Sect with your lives!

Xiao Fan

go guard the entrance of the Mystical Moon Cave!

You mustn't let them enter!

Cang Song

don't continue to make this mistake

Nonsense!

Die!

You are all guilty!

Farewell Awl Zhou Yin

How dare a degenerate like you

set foot on the Azure Cloud's forbidden grounds?

Who are you?

Kill him

Who am I?

Even I have forgotten who I am

Are you Cang Song's disciple?

Your aptitude is not bad

Child,

watch carefully

The Dragonslayer Sword should be used in this way

You...

You are...

Wan...

Brother Cang Song

so you are the old friend the Poison God spoke of

You are really cunning

and very patient

No need to flatter me

Working with evil will only bring ruin

One day you will die without even knowing what killed you

The Azure Cloud Sect is rotten from its core

Tian Bu Yi

why do you need to painstakingly support it?

Why not

surrender now?

Enough nonsense!

Senior Brother

let me fight him

Ghost King, you savage!

Prepare to die!

If you wish to use this sword,

you need to press forward bravely

Even if your cultivation is inadequate

you must have the resolve to kill a powerful enemy

Always keep that in mind

Thank you, Senior

It has emerged

It has finally emerged

Child

you are very fortunate

to be able to see the legendary

ancient sword, Immortal Executioner

If you care to do this one day,

you can privately go to Dao Xuan

and tell him, "The servant in the Ancestral Hall

has been bored for 100 years

and wants you to come by

more often for a conversation"

I will do so

Senior

Xiao Fan!

Senior Sister

What are you trying to do?

You...

Jing Yu

Xiao Fan, are you all right?

I'm fine

The demon sect members here have been disposed of

Xiao Fan

Senior Sister Lu

let's return to Clear Jade Hall to provide support now

Let's go

That is...

the Immortal Executioner sword?

The Immortal Executioner sword?

The cold moonlight is dim

The decade-long search turned up empty

The slanted rain falls at speed

disheveling the gray hairs again

Midnight on a cold night

the winds and snow are severe

Where comes the sound of misery?

The heavy heart is audible

The cloud of dreams is empty

A rare, lonely soul

picks up a cold lamp

with dreams never realized

The young man with willful energy

relies on Heaven miles away to grasp the sword

Cut through a line of treasures

with the edge of the blade beaming

Words can't express the constant feeling of regret

Back then, I searched for this common dream that's

difficult to return to now

Affection can't be forgotten

life and death are indefinite

The trials and hardships are endless

No words for this anxiety

No sleep on this lonely pillow

No satisfying this sorrow

The affairs of the world

are difficult to regulate

The moon's absence tonight

is difficult to fill

Know that the road is very long

it's hard for astray, old dreams to come back

So many secret grudges

who can console me?

The pain of separation is depressing

Only your reflection is in a mess

heartbroken again

The young man with willful energy

relies on Heaven miles away to grasp the sword

Cut through a line of treasures

with the edge of the blade beaming

Words can't express the constant feeling of regret

Back then, I searched for this common dream that's

difficult to return to now

Affection can't be forgotten

life and death are indefinite

The azure clouds remain as before

Where is the young man heading to?

Where is the young man heading to?
