-Waiter, bring us a jar of wine.
-All right.

You've been in this pose

for four hours.

I'm thinking about

how I can help Xiaohai

overcome his mental trauma.

Why are you doing that here?

One is born a man,

but is hesitant and as quiet as a maiden.

One is born a woman,

but is energetic
and as active as a mad rabbit.

I find it easier to come up with solutions
when I'm with you.

Not the face.

To be frank,
Xiaohai is in his current state

mainly because of his brother's presence.

That had a huge impact on him.

As the saying goes, "We need to know
the cause of the problem to solve it."

If you want to help him,
you have to start with love.

It has to be from the heart.

That's how you can help him.

That makes sense.

How can I take charge of love?

Come.

Look into my eyes.

What do you see?

Huge eye boogers.

Get lost.

It's sincerity.

Sincerity. Understand?

Find a way to move Xiaohai
with your sincerity.

That's easy for you to say.
Why don't you do it?

Is he your friend or mine?

Lady Owner, I want to order!

Coming!

Sincerity?

Sincerity.

TENGYUN HALL

I originally thought we could use
the new disciples as our assistants.

In the end, we are still doing
all the work ourselves.

After the training at Little Qingyun,

they're all injured
or training in seclusion.

It can't be helped.

Xinyao, that person asked me
to give this to you again.

Thank you.

This admirer has persisted for seven days.

Maybe it's just a prank
by one of the bored junior disciples.

A junior disciple?

Zhu Qin's cultivation has been voided,
Wang Zhong is being punished,

and Hai Yunfan is still recuperating.

That leaves either Wang Lu or Wen Bao.

Wang Lu is busy looking after Hai Yunfan.

He doesn't have time
to do something like this.

It seems you're already certain
it is Wen Bao.

Xinyao, you have peculiar tastes.

Yue Yun!

Don't tease me.

All right, I'll stop.

Could it really be Wen Bao?

Xiaohai, are you all right?

You got injured
because of my reckless actions.

I wanted to fix your problems,

but instead, I've added more
to your burden.

I'm sorry.

I know why you're so upset.

Hai Tiankuo is
an insurmountable mountain to you.

He stands in the way of all your hopes.

Others might not understand but I do.

I felt the same despair two years ago
when I learned I had Void Spiritual Root.

I was fortunate to have you by my side,
continually encouraging and supporting me.

Look at me now.

I'm on the path of cultivation.

HOWEVER, I KNOW THIS IS
SOMETHING YOU NEED TO OVERCOME...

However, I know

this is something you need
to overcome on your own.

Before that happens,

there's nothing I can do to help.

All I can do is stand in the rain
and keep you company.

I won't leave until you come out.

Xiaohai, I want to let you know
that you are not alone.

Wang Lu.

Hold on.

I can't stand it anymore.
This is nauseating.

I asked Lady Owner how I can
help you overcome this hurdle.

She told me I have to use sincerity.

Goodness. This is...

This type of method that requires us
to bare our hearts with sincerity

is really not for me.

I can't believe you were so touched.

You must be lame.

So...

You were just messing with me?

No, it was a sincere performance.

Wang Lu!

You've been chasing me for six hours.

-That's enough!
-Take this!

You sure didn't hold back.

You deserved it.

What's that on the back of your neck?

It's Junhuang Sect's emblem.

Junhuang Sect isn't like Lingjian Sect.

It is a sect that values military power.

My father, Hai Zheng,

was the former general of Junhuang Sect.

My mother, Lin Xingchen,

was Junhuang Sect's greatest beauty.

Tiankuo!

Where are you going?

Didn't you agree to teach me
Six-Rod Light Prison?

I am busy with military affairs today.
I'm afraid I'll be back late.

How can you break your promise?

I have an exam at Tiexue Hall tomorrow.
I don't want to make a fool of myself.

That's enough, Xiaohai.

Your brother is Junhuang Sect's
deputy general. He's very busy.

Don't bother him.

Why don't I practice with you later?

Okay.

Don't worry.

I'll teach you when I get back.

I heard you were practicing
Six-Rod Light Prison all afternoon.

Yes, but I'm still having trouble with it.

I heard Tiankuo was able to master it
instantly after seeing it just once.

When your brother was your age,

he graduated from Tiexue Camp
at the top of his class.

I know.

Father, you're a genius.

Mother is also a genius.

Tiankuo is Junhuang Sect's genius
of the millennium.

I'm the odd one out.

Silly child, don't be discouraged.

Your spell arrays and talent
for controlling magic

are unparalleled in Junhuang Sect.

The best I can be is deputy general.

I seem to be pale in comparison
to all of you.

Nevertheless, if I can work with Tiankuo,

I'm willing to be deputy general.

I will practice diligently.

Good.

We look forward to your success.

By the way, why isn't Tiankuo back yet?

He seems to be very busy lately
and doesn't have much time for me.

He has his responsibilities.

Eat up.

Supreme Deity obliterates evil.

Soaring dragon unfurls its wings.

Flames erupt from the earth.

Rolling waves rise from the sea.

Six-Rod Light Prison!

Xiaohai.

You're still practicing at this hour?

Yes, Elder Xu.

I want to become proficient at it
and show Tiankuo.

When he learns
how diligently you've been practicing,

he'll be very happy.

Keep it up.

How strange.

How come I didn't see a single soul
on my way back home?

Father?

Father!

Father!

Mother!

Mother!

Mother!

Mother!

Tiankuo!

Tiankuo!

Tell me what happened to everybody!

What happened?

Who killed Mother and Father?

Do you want to know?

I'll tell you.

Tiankuo!

Tiankuo!

You are...

Tiankuo.

Tiankuo, what are you doing?

Father!

Father!

Mother!

Tiankuo!

Why did you do this?

How can you be a demon?

You're not, are you?

It must be...

It must be a conspiracy by the demons!

This is their evil plot.

This isn't real!

Since Mother and Father found out,
I couldn't let them live.

This is...

A Restriction spell.

Are you awake?

Tiankuo.

No, you're not my brother.

You're a demon.

You killed my brother!

Somebody, come!

This Hai Tiankuo is fake!

He's a demon!

Somebody, come!

He's a murderer!

Silly brother,
I've put a seal around this room.

Nobody will hear you
even if you scream your lungs out.

You're right.

I am a demon,

but I am still the real Hai Tiankuo,

your dear older brother.

I am a demon.

Even if you walk out of this door,
nobody will believe you!

That's because you're just a child
with a fever-addled brain

while I am the new general
with power within my grasp.

General?

The demons attacked my home.

Mother and Father unfortunately perished.

I risked my life to fight back.

To reward my efforts,
Elder Ku Qin appointed me as general.

And you...

After the horrifying trauma,

you had brain damage due to a fever.

You'll be convalescing here
for the rest of your life.

You are full of lies and you don't have
a shred of humanity left.

Why are you keeping me alive?

Why didn't you kill me?

I am in a position of power.
Why should I kill you?

Besides, if I keep you alive,

I will be known for my love
for my brother.

As for you, you will never step a foot
outside this room!

Hai Tiankuo!

If you don't kill me today,

I will make you pay one day!

He kept me confined for three whole years.

Two years ago,
he went for cultivation training

and I was able to escape
with the help of my father's trusted aide.

I was afraid my identity
would be exposed in Lingjian Sect,

so I hid in the Outer Court.

In the end, Junhuang Sect still found me.

You know how the rest goes.

Is Hai Tiankuo really a demon?

He is definitely a demon.

My whole family was blind
to have raised a traitorous guy like him.

Weren't the demons all wiped out

after the bloody 1,000-year battle?

Yes.

After the bloody battle
that lasted for 1,000 years,

they were rarely seen in large numbers.

But once in a while,
they'd wreak havoc in the mortal realm.

Hai Tiankuo was a skeleton that turned
into a demon through cultivation.

Most of the time, he looks no different
from a normal person.

He now holds power in his grasp

and is the strongest warrior
of Junhuang Sect.

My testimony alone
won't be enough to convince anyone.

Anyway...

That was my past.

I know the burdens I carry are too heavy.

I also know that danger follows me around.

If you want to distance yourself,

I can understand.

Just pretend that we have never met.

Xiaohai.

Have you heard
of life's four closest bonds?

"The bonds from having classes together,
shouldering rifles together,

getting injured together,
and sharing treasures."

Forget about that damned Hai Tiankuo.

When I've succeeded
at forming my Wuxiang Bones,

we will annihilate Junhuang Sect together.

What? Are you going to cry?

Of course not.

It's just windy.

Wang Lu.

Were you using me earlier
to advance your Wuxiang Bones?

Silly, why would you say that?

Yes.

My so-called master

only left me with seven Vermilion Fruits
before she went after Hai Tiankuo.

That money-grubbing crone.

You can't say that about the Fifth Elder.

At least, she left you with seven.

That is probably the maximum
your body can accept right now.

So have they been effective?

It's all right.

When we were fighting earlier,

I noticed that your attacks
no longer work on me.

It seems that I'll have
to find someone stronger.

The technique I specialize in
isn't an offensive method.

It is to be expected that
it doesn't work on you.

However...

You can only progress
by receiving beatings.

That is quite a dilemma.

Liuli Xian has phenomenal sword skills.

Perhaps you can spar with her.

Get ready to burn incense
at my grave tomorrow.

Spar with her? Are you kidding?

Who else is there?

Wang Lu!

Wang Lu!

Wang Lu!

Wang Lu.

I want to ask you for a favor.

What is it?

I...

I want to...

With...

With you...

Can I...

Make spiritual love to me?

-Piss off.
-No!

I want to ask you
to coach me in cultivation.

Are you asking me to coach you?

Is Liu Xian a bad teacher?

No, Master is a great teacher.

But I'm dumb and can't seem
to grasp the concepts.

If an elder can't save you, how can

a successor disciple at Kinesthetic Stage
save you?

It's not the same!

You may not be
at a high cultivation stage,

but you were able
to face Liuli Xian head-on.

You also protected Yue Xinyao
at Little Qingyun.

You have real skill!

Hold on.

Why did you blush
when you mentioned Yue Xinyao?

Well...

Well...

-Well...
-Spit it out.

I heard that the sect
will arrange an outing for us later.

I'm thinking that if I succeed
in my training,

I might be able to join Yue Xinyao's team.

Fatty, you're in love!

Wang Lu, don't tease Wen Bao.

He's being so sincere. Help him out.

All right.

I have one condition though.

Anything!

From now on, I'm your big brother.

There's no need for an elaborate ceremony,

but you have to obey my every word.

Yes, Wang Lu!

All right.

Pick your favorite weapon

and meet me in the back mountains
tomorrow morning.

Yes!

That's enough.

Attack me with your full power.

I'm looking forward to your guidance.

Do you know why you lost?

You have superb swordsmanship.

I am far inferior.

You're a tier six in Qi Refining
while I'm just a tier two in Kinesthetic.

Do you know why you can't win
with your Xuantie Sword Style?

Why?

Because you're a spineless coward.

What are you staring at?

Even if you glare at me,
you're still a wimpy pig.

Lingjian Sect must have been blind
to accept you into the Inner Court.

If I were you,

I would pack up and leave
so I don't embarrass myself further.

I...

You?

You what?

Right, I nearly forgot.

You're the son
of Canglan Country's imperial advisor.

If I were your father,

I would have migraines for years
from having a pig for a son.

Sorry.

Your father might be a pig just like you.

Big piggy, little piggy,
ugly piggy, pretty piggy.

Enough!

Don't insult my father!

The power of the Vermilion Fruits
has been activated.

This power...

Wang Lu, did you deliberately...

But why?

What do you mean?

I really wonder whether
Piaomiao Peak members are idiots.

How has nobody in two years noticed
that warriors need to generate rage?

Wang Lu, was that the true power
of the Xuantie Sword?

No kidding!

Lingjian Sect is known for swordsmanship.

Xuantie Sword Style is an amazing art.

Did you think it was
as weak as you made it seem?

But Wang Lu...

How come it feels
as if I can't reproduce it?

Because your rage has depleted.

Cultivating the mind
is just as important in cultivation.

Cultivating the mind means

being able to control
your emotions and strength.

You are so knowledgeable.
You know everything!

Okay, let's go again. More trash talk.

Wait.

After knowing the reasoning
behind your words,

I feel--

-I--
-Feel?

Feel?

Feel?

Feel?

That fatty is unexpectedly powerful.

He dealt at least 20 perfect attacks
with the Xuantie Sword.

He nearly shattered
all the bones in my body!

Even so, the efficacy
of the Vermilion Fruits has kicked in.

My resistance to attacks
is continually growing stronger

and I can feel
my body repairing itself at all times.

Have I reached
the eighth iteration of Wuxiang Bones?

Lady Owner?

What have you done to me?

Don't worry.

Even if all the men in the world are dead,
I wouldn't lay a hand on you.

Drink this medicine.

Why am I in your room then?

You were training at Wuxiang Peak
to the point of Qi Deviation.

You're lucky I got there in time
to save you.

You must have reached
the ninth iteration of Wuxiang Bones.

That is a breakthrough stage
as well as the most dangerous stage.

If you're not careful,
you could explode and die.

So, don't be so worried that you fainted.

Are you kidding me? That lousy master!

Why didn't she warn me
about such an important matter?

You're mistaken about her.

Why do you think I got to you in time?

She has placed Protection Talismans
in your room

to summon me if you are in any danger.

To be honest,

your master may be shameless,
manipulative and deceitful,

but she cares a lot about you.

You are her first disciple after all.

Everybody thinks she ran off
to escape Sect Leader's nagging.

In reality,

she left for Junhuang Sect all by herself

to stand up for you.

What?

Hai Tiankuo!

You trespassed on our territory
and injured my disciple.

You are condescending
and scornfully disrespectful.

Do you take me for a meek elder?

So what do you want?

Don't you know what I want?

I want to make a deal with you.

I have freshly-plucked Vermilion Fruits
from Qingyun Peak.

This time...

I'm willing to sell it to you
at a special ten percent discount.

Do you accept this deal?

How can you be so certain
she went there to sell Vermilion Fruits?

It brought me to tears.

I came up with a meticulous plan

and helped her loot
hundreds of Vermilion Fruits.

In the end, she only gave me seven!

What else could she be doing
besides disposing of the stolen goods?

But you said she'll offer a discount
to boost sales.

Won't that result in a loss?

-That's not her style.
-You think?

Would she do something
that makes her lose money?

She'll obviously sell them
at a 50 percent profit.

That's common sense.

I bet she'll pretend to be pitiful

and make a show of how much
it pains her to offer a discount,

fooling you into thinking
you got a good deal.

In reality, she has ripped you off.

I don't think so.

Right.

Running an inn the way you do
is clearly for charity.

You wouldn't be as unscrupulous
as my master.

Not at all. I'm just doing it for--

Wait, Wang Lu.

You were insulting me.

I wasn't.

In this life,

until death do us part.

BUYER: HAI TIANKUO
SELLER: WANG WU

Deal!

There's no backing out now.

Hai Tiankuo.

This is a warning.

If you dare harm
another Lingjian Sect disciple,

I will turn Junhuang Mountain
into a bloodbath.

Impudence!

Fifth Elder, you are full of vigor.

It seems that you have recovered
from your injuries.

I just wonder

if you'd still be so spirited
under tonight's full moon.

Try and test me.

General, she is merely a Golden Core.

Why do you keep condoning her behavior?

My useless brother is in her hands.

I have to show her some respect.

Besides, she just bit my finger.

Does she think she can take my blood
without any consequences?

This full moon

won't be very peaceful.

Let's stop talking
about that unscrupulous person.

Lady Owner, let's get started.

-Start what?
-Peeping.

I'll say this one last time.

-Inner Observance Technique!
-I know.

Lady Owner, you're always right.

Fine. I'll give in to you.

Anyway, I'd like to see

how much progress
Lingjian Sect's mascot has made.

I have transferred my inner qi
into your body.

It is roaming through your body

and stimulating your acupoints.

Now, try to synchronize
your breathing with mine.

Clear your mind of all thoughts.

Begin meditating.

What do you see?

Paths.

So many paths.

Where do they lead?

They lead...

They lead...

I can't see up ahead.

It's too dark.

The pathways before you
are the meridians in your body.

Okay.

I tried walking down a path.

But I keep ending up
at the starting point.

This is the result
of two years of medicinal baths.

The meridian pathways in your body
have been completely opened up.

The energy can flow freely in your body,

circulating around
and free of obstructions.

What?

Does that mean

I was wrong about my master?

That's enough.

If you feel tired, stop immediately.

This consumes a lot of vital energy.

It's your first time
using Inner Observance Technique.

Don't do it for too long.

All right.

I understand.

It's my first time
using the Peeping Tom Technique.

I'll be able to hold out longer next time.

Shut up!

Get lost!

Master!

She's nowhere to be found.

Why can't I find her anywhere?

Where did she go?

Don't tell me...

I won't surrender even if you kill me.

I'm sorry! Spare my life!

I am dumb and ignorant.

I didn't know who I was dealing with!

That's enough!

Scream!

Hai Tiankuo, spare my life!

-Wang Lu, save me!
-Scream!

Save me! I'm scared!

Help!

-Wang Lu, save me!
-Scream!

Wang Lu!

Wang Lu!

Great timing, Wen Bao. Hit me.

-Quickly.
-What?

I want to give my master a surprise.

I'll break through the ninth iteration
of Wuxiang Bones before she returns.

But ever since knowing the reason
behind your actions,

I haven't been able to get mad at you
no matter how much you curse me.

Let me tell you a secret.

Yue Xinyao came to see me.

To thank me for saving her life,
she said...

What did she say?

She wants to talk to me all night long.

Yue Xinyao actually likes conversation?

But...

But she doesn't talk to me that much.

She said she wants
to get to know me better.

That's great!

The 12 peaks of Lingjian Sect
are all connected.

We should interact with each other more.

I did the horizontal tango with her.

I said I did the horizontal--

Wang Lu, you're lying to me, aren't you?

You want to bring out
my hidden potential, don't you?

Wen Bao...

You're wrong!
