[Sword Dynasty]

[Episode 11]

Let's talk about something interesting.

Liang Jingmeng's descendant has returned.

He killed Marquis Dugu by using Sharpening Stone Technique.

This joke is new,

but it's not funny.

He also used Nine-Death Silkworm Divine Art

to kill Song Shenshu.

Nine-Death Silkworm Divine Art is never taught to outsiders.

As long as you tell me what I want,

I'll set you free immediately.

You were the strategist at Ba Mountain Sword Academy.

His descendant probably needs you greatly now.

Think it over.

Chief Xu is the only commanding the fleet to go on this sea expedition.

Going far across the seas to search for the way to immortality

was already conducted by the previous king.

So we have what other kingdoms don't have,

such huge iron-clad battleships.

However, ever since His Majesty broke through the Seventh Realm,

his desire to search has become even more urgent.

Previously, he ordered you to go on an expedition

to the small island countries along the seacoast

and explore a new seafaring route,

it's already unprecedented.

But, this time, he has ordered Chief Xu to command the navy on a seafaring trip,

it's really incredible.

These ships are heavy in the water,

loaded down with many items.

Even though they are full of more than a thousand young disciples and thousands of soldiers,

these items can't be consumed in a short period of time.

Based on what you say,

this fleet won't return in a short time.

Chief Xu is one of His Majesty's most trusted people.

Then you are saying, His Majesty's cultivation

or maybe his health has developed a problem,

that's why there is such an urgent need for immortality?

Lu Mountain Conference is about to take place. With his Eighth-Realm strength,

it's enough to make the three kingdoms renew the peace accord.

Before Lu Mountain Conference,

he will only undertake the most stable cultivation methods.

He won't dare to take the risk.

So his cultivation won't have any problems.

In that case, his health and cultivation should be fine.

Unless... he thinks there is a problem with the next realm?

If that is true, then that is the biggest problem.

Oh right, before Xue Wangxu and Liang Lian fought,

a cultivator died in Fengming.

It's Nangong Shang, Chief of the Interior Ministry.

He died of the Sharpening Stone Technique.

Does your Bureau of Heavenly Supervision have any clues about that person's descendant?

If there is any, I would have told you already.

Previously, in anyone's eye,

also including that of the King and the Queen,

we were irreconcilable enemies.

This is the only way to make them believe

we are being controlled under their power.

That's how we can survive in Fengming easily.

But, I understand you more than others do.

Whenever that person is involved, you always show a little

what you can't completely cover up.

Are you afraid that I'll do something silly

and drag you down?

You don't need to feel such a worry.

Those things are too far in the past.

It's already the 11th year of Yuan Wu in Great Heng.

I understand what you mean.

It's just that person has died too long ago.

Everything is set in a firm history.

Many virtues are not workable in this dynasty.

But for something things,

what need to exist, are still existent.

Master, slowly.

Little Auntie, we'll have to bother you

to take care of us, one old and one young.

Cave Master Xue, please feel at ease by staying here.

If there's anything you need, you don't need to ask me,

just get Ding Ning directly.

You... This...

Ding Ning, your auntie's personality

is too my liking.

It's good if you can get used to it.

Who would refuse to

live with a heavenly beauty?

You are mistaken.

Your room is in the western courtyard next door.

You don't care about the business, why are you sweeping the ground?

This is not the same. What people sweep, I don't sweep.

What if there are more horses and carriages?

The wind will blow the leaves to other people's doorsteps.

If I don't give other people trouble, trouble won't come to me.

Ding Ning, I want to challenge you!

- Come on out!
- Trouble

is here.

Hurry and go.

Ding Ning, I want to challenge you. Come on out!

Go quickly.

What do you mean? Forget it, forget it.

Just hit someone to give your master some fun to watch.

Hurry, hurry.

Go, go, go. Hurry and go.

- Go, go.
- Ding Ning!

- Go, go!
- Alright.

Go.

Who are you?

Me? Xie Changsheng.

What do you want?

To challenge you.

He comes from afar.

Even if you don't treat him to a cup of hot tea, you should at least be courteous.

Look at my pot. I just made it.

That man is so strange.

Nobody dresses like this to go on a challenge.

I can't even sweep the ground without being bothered. Why should I be courteous to him?

I... I'm dressed like this because I'm afraid you'll hurt me.

To tell you the truth, my dad wanted me to come.

My dad wants me to see whether you deserve to be my brother-in-law.

If I don't come, I won't get food to eat.

Please help.

No wonder you are from the top wealthy family. Even for discussing marriages,

you are not slacking at all.

You sister has nothing to do with me.

Besides, what good do I get to fight with you?

Something good? You can just name it.

Alright. If I win,

I want three clumps of Three Yang Grass.

If I lose, then forget about it.

Sure, if you defeat me, I'll find the Three Yang Grass for you.

Very good.

Then... can we start?

Come on over.

Enough, enough. We're just playacting. A simple move is enough.

Are you finished? Ding Ning,

I haven't enjoyed enough of it.

Come one, hit him a few more times.

No, no, no more hitting.

Stop. I concede.

Don't be courteous.

Didn't I say just let me do it myself?

Brother-in-Law is indeed as strong as your reputation.

I'll go home to tell my dad

that you are especially suited to be my brother-in-law.

- Move aside, move aside.
- I'm not interesting in marrying with the Xie family.

I'll give you the Three Yang Grass.

What a strange man. What is going?

Let's go. Let's go.

No more show to watch. Let's go.

That Xie Changsheng is really interesting.

I've never seen anyone in such a hurry

to marry off his older sister.

He has potential,

too bad he is a spendthrift.

He isn't following the right path.

Ding Ning, how about this? Make a bet with him,

let him become my disciple too.

Given White Goat Cave's current circumstances, let's not waste anyone's time and effort.

It's not that bad.

Green Vine Sword Academy is doing alright.

Master, I will go to White Goat Cave tomorrow to cultivate with the help of the Spirit Vein.

I'll go with you.

Master, you are not recuperated yet. It's not good to go on a tiring trip.

I can go by myself.

Alright then.

Master, get some rest first. I will be right back.

I beat the young master of Xie family. Aren't you going to reward me with something?

The Xie family marriage is just a joke. It won't happen.

In a place like Fengming City,

the more you show off, the faster you'll die.

I hope you'll always

remember this lesson.

Revenge is really exhausting.

Is Liang Lian completely down?

It's still early. Liang Lian is not that easy to counter.

What you need is a strong cultivator to support you.

Previously, there was master, but now there's none.

How is Cave Master Xue's body now?

He will last long enough to watch the Min Mountain Sword Trials.

But, you don't need to look for anyone else for now.

After Min Mountain Sword Trials, perhaps I will be someone substantial.

I don't mean how powerful I'll be.

But, if I become the champion,

my stature will be quite different to the elites in Fengming.

To win the championship at Min Mountain Sword Trials...

If you have time today, you can pick me up later.

I will wait for you outside the entrance of White Goat Cave.

[Li Ling Manor of Heng Kingdom]

Sun Xing is still waiting outside the door.

Let him wait.

What makes him think that he deserves to get an answer from me?

Originally I had wanted to take him in as a guest,

he looked me down. Now he comes on his own.

What did he say to you?

He said, even though his right hand is maimed,

but his perception to the primal energy within Heaven and Earth, as well as comprehension of sword techniques

still far exceed that of a regular cultivator.

Oh yes, he also said, even though his right hand cannot show the refined sword technique anymore,

he has already reached Energy Core, the Third Realm, at his age.

If he will breakthrough to the Fifth Realm in the future and can use flying swords,

then the loss of a hand won't be a hindrance.

He certainly has a good plan.

Using flying sword, then he won't need his hand.

Flying sword is only good for attacking from afar. It's useless in a close-up fight.

Haven't you seen those Fifth-Realm cultivators in Fengming?

They all carrying two long swords.

Based on what he says,

when he reaches the Fifth Realm,

we'll have to assign a bodyguard to protect him then.

Ding Ning.

That tavern youngster has really surprised me.

I really could not have imagined his performance at White Goat Cave.

I even talked to him myself previously.

I really cannot imagine him

being with those oddities.

So, should we kick Sun Xing away?

I happen to need good people now.

Let's see if he can be used.

Groom horses then. Let him clean the stable for the horses.

Yes.

Master.

Ding Ning! Hurry, help him sit up.

Master.

Don't get distracted. Focus on your cultivation.

Don't waste the Face Firming Pearl's effect.

Master.

Master.

Master.

You still came.

Did you break through the realm?

- Yes.
- That was too risky.

If I don't break through the realm, then I won't be able to win the Min Mountain Sword Trials.

And I won't be able to bring you honor.

Without cultivation, it's hopeless to win the championship.

But cultivate too fast,

your life will be shortened.

You should understand the meaning even more than I do.

Right now, you took the risk to breakthrough the realm.

You don't try to preserve your life. Why?

The meaning of life is not about how long you live,

but about whether you've lived a splendid life.

If I'm fated to die at 30,

rather than barely staying alive and waiting to die,

I'd rather fight.

Help me go back.

This...

You broke through the realm?

I knew something unusual would happen today.

But I didn't expect it to be so extraordinary.

I don't have much time left.

I need to be even faster.

It hasn't been long since the Sword Trial Festival to now.

All the young elites in Fengmeng,

from Energy Refinement, the Second Realm, to Core Energy, the Third Realm,

it usually take at least eight months.

Your breakthrough today sets a new record

for the entire Fengming City.

Do you insist on letting people discover that you're so fast?

I didn't need to, but

I must now.

I want Master to feel the glory.

His remaining time is even less than mine.

What you're concerned about involves too much.

The ultimate result is my goal.

Regardless of whether I can reach the goal,

I hope the journey will be meaningful.

I used to wish that I wouldn't have so many people as my burden.

But now there are more and more.

Yes.

First there's you. Then there's Master.

I won't become your burden.

What to do?

You already are.

Then you should stay alive.

Yes.

Master.

Master, it's my oversight. You haven't eaten,

but I've been eating already.

Your bowl?

The owner of the noodle shop is nice.

He told me to return the bowl when I finish.

Master, I'll fill a bowl for you.

No need. You just eat slowly.

Master. Senior Brother.

Junior Brother.

Junior Brother, these noodles are good.

Master won't eat it. I'll fill a bowl for you.

No need, Senior Brother.

You go ahead and eat yours.

My beloved subjects, do you remember in the last Lu Mountain Conference,

Heng Kingdom was no match to Xian Kingdom. We were

forced to cede Liang Shan County to Xian Kingdom.

It's been many years.

Liang Shan County has remained to be the shame of Great Heng.

Xian Kingdom has occupied our Liang Shan County for years.

To cleanse our shame, everyone at Great Heng

has been training diligently.

If we are victorious to win back Liang Shan County,

the entire nation will be greatly uplifted.

It's a different time now.

Great Heng is not what it used to be.

At this Lu Mountain Conference, I will definitely make my moves.

In the near future, Great Heng's armored army

will trample the four seas

and dominate the entire world.

Long Live Our King! Love Live Great Heng!

His Majesty was really bold and energizing today.

It really excited and touched us.

I'm sure we'll reclaim our lost land in the Lu Mountain Conference this time.

Great Heng is not what it used to be.

We will definitely avenge for our shame from back then.

Marquis Fang, please stay.

Have you heard that youngster from the tavern has reached the Third Realm?

He is the fastest person to breakthrough realms in Fengming.

During the sword trials, he relied on an elixir pill

and went directly from the primary stage of Energy Refinement, the Second Realm, to the peak stage.

Marquis Fang, previously you didn't want Ding Ning

because of his body of Irreversible Fiery Yang. With his performance now,

it's possible for him to overcome the curse of early death.

Do you still hold the same opinion as before?

Same.

Marquis Fang is not wrong.

Before Ding Ning broke through the realm, he relied on many elixir pills.

Without that, he might not have broken through before the other two people.

The elixir's medicinal force accumulates inside the body,

I think it will impact his core energy in the future.

What reasoning is that?

How long has it been since the sword trials?

It hasn't even been three months.

Furthermore, this youngster went with Xue Wangxu to Tushan County.

He's been busy with travels, and hasn't been cultivating in seclution.

Four months?

This Ding Ning really is the fastest one.

He is obviously a rare find in a thousand years.

If Marquis Fang doesn't want him,

then I, Marquis Lian, will sponsor him.

I'd like to see

how this youngster that the Queen is paying attention to

will perform in the Min Mountain Sword Trials.

Marquis Lian thinks wisely. I, Marquis Li, would like to go with you.

It's rude to come in without being invited.

I, Sun Xing, is indeed amiss in etiquette.

But even a rude person can still relieve your worries.

Relieve worries for me?

Even though I don't know how you've sneaked past the guards

to come into my study.

Just based on how you're dressed now,

I really can't imagine how you can relieve my worries.

In your manor, there are many guests who are stronger than I am.

The reason that I can appear in front of you today

is because I've been here many days

and have become familiar with their routes and habits.

Actually, you know that much of what Ding Ning said is correct.

You pursue too much perfectionism.

How can there be so many perfect things in the world?

For example, the road you take to go home.

Why do you have to wait for approval from your father and Consort Zhao before you depart?

What do you mean?

Have you ever thought,

between your father and Consort Zhao, just let one of them

develop a strong liking of you

and must have you. It's much more useful than

making both of them to like you a little.

Continue.

The relationship between your father and Consort Zhao

is more solid than the relationships

among the other nobles in Xian Kingdom.

As long as one person recognizes you,

the other person will concede.

Therefore, you don't have to hesitate

by considering other possibilities.

All you need to do is

do your best to persuade one of the two people.

You have tolerated in humility in my manor for so long

just to stand in front of me today.

What do you want?

I would like to be your envoy to go to Xian's capital to persuade Consort Zhao.

You came to me, but I let you groom the horses.

You don't harbor hatred for me, but actually want to help me.

I do not remember grievances. I only recognize profits.

Say it. What do you need?

When you are the king, I'll be the prime minister.

The promise to be under one person, but above 10,000 others.

Good.

If you can help me go home and ascend to the throne,

this request is not much.

Just say it. When will you leave?

It must not delay. I'll leave today.

Master, these are all presents given to Junior Brother from the nobles.

Isn't this a kind of glory too?

Yes, Master.

What is it?

Master.

Marquis Li sent over a gold-woven gown.

Gold-woven gown.

It helps a Energy Core, Third Realm, cultivator to condense core energy.

It's indeed a grand gift.

Yes.

Even though it's a gold-woven gown, you don't need to be so surprised.

Yes, Master is right.

What is it now?

Master, look at this.

Marquis Lian sent over this...

Whale Ambergris Ointment.

If you rub the ointment all over your body,

you will stimulate the core energy to cleanse and renew blood,

and reduce the time needed for cultivation.

Even someone like Marquis Lian with his high stature,

he also has to do this.

What is the meaning for anyone to climb that high?

I didn't know you'd dare to come.

Haven't you been looking for me?

You released me that day, General.

Later, Bai Shanshui did not take your advantage in the Fish Market.

We are even then.

Since we are even, why are you here today?

You sent scouts to look for us.

We are also curious what we've done to offend you.

I want you to help me kill Xue Wangxu

and the youngster beside him.

Xue Wangxu and Ding Ning.

No matter how dissatisfied you are, you shouldn't make haste.

I don't think it's necessary.

Of course it's necessary.

I am not a single cultivator.

I am a general leading an army.

Do not follow stale formulas in battles.

When you are weak, pretend you are strong. When you are strong, pretend you're weak.

Right now on one will think that

I would still attack Xue Wangxu and that youngster.

If they are killed, perhaps people would feel

that someone is falsely blaming me.

And you can help me do it.

You don't have to worry that I would betray you.

The closer that I am to you and be like you,

our alliance can get stronger.

You will also feel safe about me.

You are quite right, but you should understand

that we only want Lone Mountain Sword Trove,

and we wouldn't do any deal that loses money.

Of course I understand.

Ever since that I arranged for you to enter the city,

I've never asked you about any secret related to Lone Mountain Sword Trove.

And I've never tried to find out

what you're searching for in Fengming.

If you can't even help me with this small favor,

then how would we be mutually beneficial?

If there is more chaos in Fengming,

it will benefit us more.

To look at the big picture,

I will be in the light, and you will be in the dark.

Perhaps we won't feel so dissatisfied as we do now.

Their prices aren't cheap.

Especially in Fengming,

the price is even higher.

To pay for a life,

how much?

Your cousin is a good person.

Like the others, you also want to recruit him to work for you?

I only sent over some fresh seafood. Compared to those gold and precious items,

I'm more like someone who wants to make friends.

Your seafood isn't ordinary.

I really think Ding Ning is a good person.

He comes to the fish market frequently to take care of the old grandma who sells ink.

He also doesn't seek payback. It's truly unusual.

I saw him today, and he even possesses a stable calmness that isn't affected by flattery or humility.

I like talents too.

It's just that I can't even protect myself.

If he were to follow us, he'd live a life between humans and ghosts.

So it's enough for me to just take a look at him from a distance.

Don't misunderstand, please.

Then, thank you very much.

Don't you understand about respecting the old and the teachers? You've won several rounds.

Don't you know to deliberately make a few bad moves and let me win?

Master, the book says...

What cares...

Your disciple has a kind temperament, just like an ancient scholar.

He is just too nice.

I've said it many times.

Books are written by people. Laws are codified by people too.

Rules and kindness, which is more important? You think it over.

Master, please don't be angry. I know I'm wrong.

Shall we play one more round?

This is more like it.

Master.

You go ahead and play. I'll be right back.

Alright.

Eldest Miss Shang is here to visit you, and she brought some fresh seafood.

She's already left.

To visit me?

She never leaves the fish market.

You are also old friends. You only talked about me just now?

For people like us, it's better not to talk about the past.

Did she really not have an appointment with you today?

Other people may not know, but I know more than anyone.

Back then, your master

eliminated the Gongsun family and Shang family with thunder strikes.

Even though it was ordered by the King of Heng,

but he was the first to implement the new law.

This incident seriously affected the 11 Marquis' interests.

That's why the King of Heng eventually destroyed Ba Mountain Sword Academy

as the condition to exchange for the new law.

Master was too aggressive back then.

He disappointed many people.

Even though your master was detestable,

but he rescued the only young girl left from the Shang family.

So, I would guess, if you have any request,

she will help you.

Master owes too much to Gongsun family and Shang family.

All these years, the King of Heng has concentrated on cultivation.

He has probably achieved the Eighth Realm.

Revenge is just our persistent goal.

Since she has chosen the fish market, it means she doesn't want to reveal herself in the open.

It's alright this way.

The Crown Prince is really naturally endowed.

At such an age, he is already in the Fourth Realm.

It's really commendable.

Crown Prince's sword style came from that person.

He is so outstanding now.

I'm sure, within a short time, just like that person,

he will become a top cultivator in Fengming

with his strength exceeding that of His Majesty's.

Impudent!

Who sent you?

What are you scheming?
