Episode 32

What do you think?

Elder Sister, I've lost.

Why do you keep calling me 'Elder Sister?'

We'll be getting married soon.

Shouldn't you call me something else?

Sister Shan.

Honey.

I don't think we should get married just yet.

What did you say?

Did you know we've already decorated the whole Mount Hua?

Why did you say that?

What are you worried about?

My parents have prepared everything.

I know.

I just think that...

since I still haven't taken revenge for my family

we should postpone our wedding.

I thought you don't want to marry me anymore.

So that's why.

People say a man with a family will have a successful career.

Little Lin, let's get married first.

Then we can take revenge against Yu Canghai together, okay?

Father, Mother.

As long as I can avenge your death

no matter how much suffering I have to endure, I won't regret it.

Stop!

Merciful Buddha!

Greetings, Headmaster!

Our sword skills aren't as good as yours.

Please kindly give us your opinion, Headmaster.

How do you know that?

Your sword skills are amazing.

We've all witnessed it before.

Yes, teach us, Headmaster!

North Mount Heng Sect's sword skill...

There's a North Mount Sect Swordplay

which I'm not sure if Master Nun Dingyi has taught you before.

Give me a sword!

Watch closely.

Merciful Buddha!

Headmaster.

Although it's North Mount Heng Sect's sword skill

we've never seen it before.

Where did you learn it from?

Well...

I learned it from the wall of a cave.

If you want to learn it

as your headmaster, of course I can teach it to you all.

- That's great! - Okay, give me some wine!

I need a drink first!

Merciful Buddha!

Headmaster.

Ever since our sect became a Buddhist sect

we... we no longer have any wine here.

All right then even water would do.

Since you're nuns, I guess you wouldn't know this.

The stream on your mountain is also as good as wine.

Great wine!

Headmaster Linghu!

Headmaster Linghu... Headmaster Linghu!

Here comes your wine!

Monk Bujie.

Here, your wine.

- Thank you, Master! - Smell it!

What great wine!

But... having smelt it is like having drunk it.

What?

I can't break the Buddhist rule.

What are you afraid of?

On my way here, I heard someone mock you.

He said you've become the Headmaster of a group of nuns.

So I gave him a punch and broke his teeth.

I told him I'm also from North Mount Heng Sect.

Since I've also shaved my head do you think I also look like a nun?

Merciful Buddha!

Although Monk Bujie's not a nun but your daughter's certainly a nun.

Yes, I'm the father of a nun!

Linghu Chong... Linghu Chong!

Wait!

You haven't asked him yet.

Let me ask him if he's really become North Mount Heng Sect's Headmaster.

Brother Linghu.

Are you really going to become North Mount Heng Sect's Headmaster?

Yes.

That's good!

Brothers, it's true!

These six brothers are so funny.

These six babies...

Headmaster Linghu... Headmaster Linghu!

Congratulations, Hero Linghu!

Headmaster Linghu we've come to congratulate you.

Headmaster Linghu, my brothers and I have come to congratulate you!

Mr. Lao and Mr. Zu.

As ordered by Master Nun Dingyi

I had to come and take charge of North Mount Heng Sect for her.

I didn't want to alarm you all.

But why have you all come today?

Congratulations, Hero Linghu!

Thank you very much.

Hero Linghu.

You didn't even tell me you've become North Mount Heng Sect's Headmaster.

How could you?

Brother, since you're now surrounded by these beautiful nuns

you must have forgotten about me, right?

Why did you think Sacred Lady asked us to come and join North Mount Heng Sect?

She wants us to keep an eye on Hero Linghu for her.

- Am I right? - Yes!

What? Yingying asked you to come?

Of course she did.

If Sacred Lady had not asked us to come

how would we know what a great time you're having here right now?

Let's not talk about this for now.

Since we've come uninvited

North Mount Heng Sect may not have enough food for us.

That's why we've brought our own food and wine.

Let's have a drink tonight

to celebrate such a happy occasion for Hero Linghu!

Cult Master Dongfang of Sun Moon Holy Cult has sent us

Jia Bu and Shangguan Yun

to congratulate Hero Linghu for becoming North Mount Heng Sect's Headmaster.

We wish your sect glory

and Headmaster Linghu success in the martial art world!

A stream will always have its origin while a strong tree always has its roots.

Since I've never met Cult Master Dongfang

how could I accept this from him?

These are just some small gifts from Cult Master Dongfang.

Please kindly accept them.

Since you're also a great hero within the martial art world

you should have self-control and be understanding and reasonable.

I hope you're not going to make things difficult for us.

Headmaster Linghu.

Actually among these 40 boxes

half of them contain the clothes and accessories that Miss Ren

has left behind at Blackwood Cliff.

The rest of it are gifts that Cult Master Dongfang as prepared

for your wedding with Miss Ren.

Since it's your appointment day today, Headmaster Linghu...

Cult Master Dongfang has asked us to bring you your wedding gifts.

Headmaster Linghu please accept them.

From the sound of it

Cult Master Dongfang is quite an understanding person.

All right, I'll accept all these gifts!

It's now the auspicious time!

May the bride and groom enter Mount Hua's hall!

Please kneel down!

First bow to Heaven and Earth!

Second bow to your parents!

How did it go?

Today is Headmaster Yue's daughter's...

Headmaster Yue said he's busy today so Mount Hua Sect won't be coming.

But they didn't even send any gifts.

No one from Mount Song and Mount Tai Sects came either.

Headmaster Mo Da of South Mount Heng Sect sent you this letter.

Buddha is omnipresent.

So why must you go to Mount Qingliang?

In order to achieve an ambitious goal it will take years and years of practice.

Mo Da of South Mount Heng Sect.

What does it mean?

Headmaster Mo Da is telling you not to just follow what others do.

If you can let your heart and your surrounding blend in together

then you'll truly achieve a worry-free and peaceful state of mind.

Then you can do good deeds and preach good words.

How thoughtful of Headmaster Mo Da.

Headmaster.

Shaolin's Master Fangzheng and Wudang's Taoist Chongxu have arrived.

- Quickly bring them in. - Yes.

This way, please.

This way, Master.

Merciful Buddha!

Thank you so much for coming Master Fangzheng and Taoist Chongxu!

I'm so glad to hear that you've become North Mount Heng Sect's Headmaster.

Thank you, Master.

Headmaster, it's time let's begin.

Please, Masters.

These four instruments were passed on from our founder, Master Nun Xiaofeng.

They've always been kept by our Headmaster.

I hereby hand them over to our newly appointed Headmaster, Brother Linghu.

Here are the five forbidden rules of North Mount Heng Sect.

One, disrespect your elders.

Two, kill your fellow disciples.

Three, kill innocent lives.

Four, to be unrighteous.

Five, befriend the evil.

Unfortunately, Master Nun Dingyi was plotted against and killed.

As per Master Nun Dingyi's final wish

I shall take charge of North Mount Heng Sect.

We're extremely grateful to everyone

in coming here to congratulate us today.

Brother Linghu certainly sounds like a Headmaster!

- Yes! - The Five Mountain Flag has arrived!

As per order of Chief Zuo of The Five Mountain Sword Alliance

Linghu Chong cannot make himself the Headmaster of North Mount Heng Sect.

Since North Mount Heng sect is part of The Five Mountain Sword Alliance

it must follow Chief Zuo's order!

After I become the Headmaster

as to whether we'll join The Five Mountain Sword Alliance

I still need to discuss it with everyone first.

North Mount Heng Sect has always been headed by nuns.

As a man

how can Linghu Chong break its longtime tradition?

Traditions can be changed over time.

This is North Mount Heng Sect's business and not yours.

What are these bad-mouthed people doing here?

They're my friends who have come here to attend the ceremony.

Linghu Chong.

What's the fifth rule of North Mount Heng Sect's five forbidden rules?

The fifth rule is not to befriend the evil.

That's why we would never befriend people like you, Brother Lu Bai.

Masters, you're the most respected figures in the martial art world.

Please be our judges today.

Do you think Linghu Chong has broken North Mount Heng Sect's fifth rule

by inviting these evil monsters here today?

North Mount Heng Sect has long been a proper and decent sect.

But Linghu Chong has turned it upside down in a flash!

Miss Ren of Sun Moon Holy Cult is here!

It's Sacred Lady!

Yingying, you've come as well!

Of course, it's your big day today!

Greetings, Master Fangzheng and Taoist Chongxu.

Linghu Chong.

This woman's a key figure within the demonic cult.

Wouldn't you say so?

What did you say?

So what if she is?

The five forbidden rules of North Mount Heng Sect

forbids you from befriending the evil.

If you don't draw a line between yourself and these evil people

then you can't be the Headmaster!

I don't have to be.

So what?

Headmaster Linghu.

Who's this person?

Who is he to interfere with your sect's business?

He said he was sent by Mount Song Sect's Headmaster Zuo.

The flag in his hand is Headmaster Zuo's flag.

Let alone this little flag

even if Headmaster Zuo was here

how is he supposed to interfere with my sect's business?

Who said that's The Five Mountain Flag?

He's a liar!

Headmaster Linghu it really is a fake flag.

It's not The Five Mountain Flag.

It's the Five Poison Flag of the Five Fairies Cult!

You despicable evil woman!

How dare you use such a trick on me!

Give me back my flag!

Then you should go and ask Cult Master Lan for her Five Poison Flag.

Master Fangzheng, Taoist Chongxu.

Please be our judges.

All right, please kindly be our judges.

All right.

As the newly appointed Headmaster of North Mount Heng Sect

he's able to understand our Buddhist teachings

and share peace with everyone.

It's certainly very kind and thoughtful of him.

As the Chief of The Five Mountain Sword Alliance

Headmaster Zuo should be more understanding of such teachings.

Why is he forcing Hero Linghu instead?

If even evil monsters like these can come to North Mount Heng

what has this place become now?

We've always encouraged people to drop their swords and turn to Buddha.

As long as they're willing to change

then Buddha's generosity will definitely give them a chance for a new life.

Don't you think so?

You all heard Master, right?

If you're willing to change

and if Headmaster Linghu agrees to let you stay here

then you can all become North Mount Heng Sect's disciples.

In other words you're no longer evil monsters, right?

That's right!

Sister Yihe.

Is North Mount Heng Sect forbidden to take in male disciples?

No, we don't.

Good!

It's great that you all want to join North Mount Heng Sect.

Don't worry about the ceremony.

It's Tungyuan Valley over there.

Let's build a North Mount Heng Villa there for you all!

Yes!

Since they've joined North Mount Heng Sect now

they'll have to follow its rules.

What a happy occasion for the martial art world!

Aren't you going, Lu Bai?

Do you want to join North Mount Heng Sect, too?

Go away!

As per Chief Zuo's order in the early morning of March 15th

all members of The Five Mountain Sword Sect

is to meet at Mount Song to nominate the Headmaster for The Five Mountain Sword Sect.

You must all attend!

Since when did the five sects merge into one?

I've never heard about it.

Mount Song, Mount Hua, Mount Tai

as well as South Mount Heng have already agreed.

If you oppose against it then you'll be up against the other four sects.

You'll just be looking for trouble.

Hey, Lu!

How will you explain to Zuo Lengchan for losing your flag?

Why don't I give it back to you?

It's smoking!

You evil woman!

If you call him 'Headmaster Linghu' then I'll give you the antidote.

Otherwise, your hand will rot.

Headmaster Linghu.

I beg you.

Please give me the antidote.

Miss Lan.

Brother Lu was just following Headmaster Zuo's order.

Let's just give him the antidote.

Okay!

Go away!

Everyone!

Since you're going to stay at the North Mount Heng Villa

then you'll all belong to North Mount Heng Sect!

I hope you will adhere to our rules and not befriend the evil again.

This is Mid-Air Temple.

It really is a work of wonders!

But compared to this 500-mile mountain track

Mid-Air Temple seems to be quite trivial.

In the book of history

when Emperor Wei attacked Yen State

he used many thousands of soldiers to open up North Mount Heng

to gain access to more than 500 places.

The northern end of this track is Ciyiao Kou.

Master, you're so knowledgeable.

How shameful of me.

No wonder everyone in the world wants to be the emperor.

With just one order, so many soldiers would help you open up a mountain.

How amazing!

Many heroes in the past have been blinded by the desire to take control.

Forget about being the emperor.

All the bloody battles within the martial art world

are due to people's desire to want to take control.

Headmaster Linghu.

Why do you think Zuo Lengchan wants to stop you from being the Headmaster?

I don't understand.

Please kindly shed some light for me.

What do you think is wrong with the unification of the five sects?

I haven't given it much thought.

But I know that

in order to force North Mount Heng Sect to agree with the unification

Mount Song Sect has killed Master Nun Dingyi

as well as many of her disciples.

I'm afraid it's only Zuo Lengchan's first step

to become the Chief of The Five Mountain Sword Alliance.

If the five sects really do merge into one

then he'd be as strong as Shaolin and Wudang.

At that time

Zuo Lengchan will further conquer

other sects like Kunlun, Emei Kongtong and Qingcheng.

What about his third step?

He'd want to conquer Sun Moon Holy Cult.

Finally, it would be Shaolin and Wudang's turn.

But...

But Zuo Lengchan's martial art skill may not be the strongest.

Why would he want to do that?

People can be unpredictable.

No matter how difficult something may seem

some people would still want to give it a try.

See this 500-mile mountain track?

It only came about because somebody tried.

What Zuo Lengchan wants is more than the martial art world.

Maybe he even wants to order his soldiers

to build a mountain track.

Life is so short.

Why must he be so greedy?

This time, we've come to North Mount Heng

to congratulate you as well as to discuss our next step with you.

The five sects will be going to Mount Song soon

to nominate the Chief of The Five Mountain Alliance.

Master Fangzheng had already expected it.

But Zuo Lengchan's certainly more impatient than we are.

It's not as simple as Zuo Lengchan thinks.

Before Master Nun Dingyi passed away she's broken her sect's tradition

and passed on the role of Headmaster to you.

I certainly admire her vision.

With Headmaster Linghu's participation

I'm afraid Zuo Lengchan's unification meeting

won't go as smoothly as planned.

Look, Masters.

These two needles were the weapon that killed Master Nun Dingyi.

Headmaster Linghu.

Have you ever heard the name 'Sunflower Manual?'

I've heard Cult Master Ren mention it before.

Please.

The Sunflower Manual was hidden away by a eunuch from past dynasties.

I've heard that the martial art skill inside that manual

is extremely powerful.

No one has ever learned the full manual over the past 300 years.

Two disciples from Mount Hua Sect have actually seen the Sunflower Manual before.

You mean someone from Mount Hua Sect has learned from the manual before?

Those two disciples were Elder Yue Su and Elder Cai Zifeng.

But neither of them has learned from the Sunflower Manual.

Why is that?

As soon as news got out that Mount Hua Sect's disciples

had taken a look at the Sunflower Manual

the demonic cult's ten elders attacked Mount Hua immediately.

The battle lasted for three days and three nights.

Both Yue Su and Cai Zifeng died in the battle.

The notes that they took from the Sunflower Manual

were also taken away by the demonic cult's ten elders.

Five years later

the demonic cult's ten elders came and attacked Mount Hua again.

But The Five Mountain Sword Alliance had set up a trap

to lock them up at Repentance Cliff.

Soon after

an internal battle broke out between the Sword and Chi factions of Mount Hua Sect.

Most of the Sword Faction men were killed by the Chi Faction.

It was certainly a bloody battle between fellow brothers!

Then Zen Master Duyuan retired from the martial art world

and had his own family.

He changed his name to Lin Yuantu and is the father of Lin Zhennan.

The part of the Sunflower Manual that Lin Yuantu brought into the martial art world

then became the Evil-warding Sword Manual.

So both the Evil-warding Sword Manual and Sunflower Manual

have the same origin

but they both only contain a part of the original Sunflower Manual.

I've seen Lin Zhennan's martial art skill before.

It's very different from the Evil-warding Sword Manual.

Why is that?

Back then, because of Lin Yuantu's reputation

no one in the martial art world had dared to attack the Lin family.

After he died

Lin Zhennan's martial art skill was still very weak.

It's like a child walking along the street with gold in his hands.

Anybody would want to grab it from him.

I guess even Mount Hua Sect's Headmaster

Yue Buqun would have wanted to have it to himself.

The 15th of next month is when

Zuo Lengchan will hold the unification meeting

to nominate a Chief for The Five Mountain Sword Sect.

What's your opinion Headmaster Linghu?

Since the four other sects have agreed on the unification

I'm afraid I can't let North Mount Heng Sect to be the odd one out.

In to my opinion, you should strongly oppose to the unification.

If you really can't stop them

I'm sure your sword skill is good enough to defeat Zuo Lengchan.

You might as well make yourself the Headmaster of The Five Mountain Sword Sect.

What? Me?

That won't do.

That's certainly our wish.

That's right.

If Zuo Lengchan becomes the Headmaster

then everyone in the martial art world would suffer.

I'm sure that's the last thing that you'd want to see, right?

If Zuo Lengchan takes charge of the martial art world

I'm sure you and North Mount Heng Sect would be first on his list of targets.

Can you bear to see Master Nun Dingyi's disciples

get slaughtered by Zuo Lengchan?

On March 15th, we will definitely bring our disciples to Mount Song as your support.

We must destroy Zuo Lengchan's plot!

Who is it?

What a great gift from Cult Master Dongfang!

Cult Master Dongfang had always respected his elders

and appreciated new talented heroes.

If Hero Linghu is willing to come to Blackwood Cliff with us today

then we won't hurt Master Fangzheng and Taoist Chongxu at all.

Since Cult Master Dongfang appreciates me so much

if you'd let Master Fangzheng and Taoist Chongxu go

then I'll go to Blackwood Cliff with you.

All three of you have such strong martial art skill.

Hero Linghu, if you suddenly change your mind

then we'd get into big trouble.

How about this?

Allow me to ask for your three right arms.

If the three of you chop off your right arms

then we'd have nothing to worry about.

I thought Dongfang Bubai's supposed to be the world's number one.

But he sounds a bit like a coward to me.

Does he really think he'd be worry-free once we've chopped off our right arms?

He probably won't be worry-free.

But at least Ren Woxing would only have an armless Linghu Chong to help him.

Master Fangzheng, Taoist Chongxu.

Would you rather lose an arm or risk your lives here?

But we haven't got anything to chop off our arms with.

All right.

Since you've made your choice then get on with it.

At the count of three

if you still haven't chopped off your arms then I'd have to take action from this end.

Very well.

Once I charge forward you two shall follow behind me.

One... two...

Wait!

Both Taoist Chongxu and Master Fangzheng are my guests today.

If you'd let them go unharmed

then I'd even chop off both my arms for you.

But this weapon seems a bit odd.

Can you give me something longer?

That's enough!

Ready, everyone!

I'll start counting!

Go on.

Wait!

Careful!

Uncle Jia.

You're also a respected hero in the martial art world.

Why are you doing such a thing?

Sacred Lady, you better leave.

Don't get yourself involved.

Uncle Dongfang asked you and Uncle Shangguan to deliver my gifts.

How could you be bribed by Zuo Lengchan

and be so rude to North Mount Heng Sect's Headmaster?

Who said I am bribed by Zuo Lengchan?

I'm following Cult Master Dongfang's secret order

to bring Linghu Chong back to the altar!

Nonsense!

Cult Master's Blackwood Order is here!

Cult Master has said that Jia Bu's plotting against him.

Whoever captures and kills him will be greatly rewarded!

Shoot her!

Don't you dare!

No.

Uncle Shangguan.

If you capture this traitor then you'll be promoted to be an elder.

Well...

Fire! Fire!

Quick! Fire!

Jia Bu! How dare you!

This is the only way out.

Do you want to kill your men, too?

- Nonsense! - Nonsense?

Quickly put out the fire!

Quick! Run!

Quickly go and put out the fire...

Thank goodness for your help.

Lucky I got here in time.

- Put out the fire! - Yes!

So it was you who set the fire.

How did you know Jia Bu would attack us?

Did you think Dongfang Bubai would sincerely send you gifts?

How foolish of me!

How could I have neglected Dongfang Bubai's plot so easily?

I would have deserved to die.

But if anything had happened to Master Fangzheng and Taoist Chongxu

then I'd be...

Merciful Buddha!

Headmaster Linghu, since we're safe now, please don't blame yourself.

Uncle Shangguan.

Among our cult's ten elders

six of them have already taken my father's Brain Pill of the Three Corpses.

Do you want one?

My father would love to have you back to help him.

From now on, I'd be forever loyal to you, Sacred Lady.

Miss Ren.

Thank you for saving us.

Headmaster Linghu.

We still have some matter to attend to.

We better go now.

Headmaster Linghu, see you at Mount Song on March 15th.

All right I'll see you then.

Please.

Good bye!

Brother Chong...

Linghu Chong!

- I lit the fire! - I added the grass!

- I fanned it! - I cried out!

I put out the fire!

- Then what did I do? - Sacred Lady, the show's over.

What else would you like us to do?

You're already North Mount Heng Sect's disciples.

You don't have to serve me anymore.

Just enjoy life with Headmaster Linghu from now on.

Life with Headmaster Linghu is the same as life with you.

What's the difference?

You must be getting too old.

Linghu Chong is North Mount Heng Sect's Headmaster

whereas I'm an evil woman whom everyone hates.

- Yingying... - Of course there's a difference.

Sacred Lady... Sacred Lady!

What's going on?

Yingying!
