Love a Lifetime

Episode 8

When the flowers are red like blood, it is called Red Flame.

When the flowers are white, it's called White Snow.

The twin lotus flowers on one stalk which can

be used to extract the Chihua Pill and its antidote--

they are really special!

My dad said

these flowers are rare treasures

They are the reason

Longyin City was founded.

After we make all the antidotes

with the extracts from these flowers,

we'll hurry and send it to your mother.

But

only my father knows how to make the antidote.

And previously they were escorted by my sister.

We have to think of a good plan to

keep it a secret from my dad and sister.

Rong Hua.

Thank you for helping me conceal my identity.

And thank you for helping Lingxu Pavilion

get rid of a lot of troubles.

Between you and me,

there's no need to say thank you.

The most important thing now

is to try to persuade Lingxu Pavilion

and Longyin City to team up in a fight against Mo Huan.

So you just trust

Lingxu Pavilion so much?

It's actually strange when you think about it.

What are the grudges

Lingxu Pavilion and Longyin City hold against each other?

Maybe people of the last generation

have some misunderstanding?

Or did my dad

offend the Master of Lingxu Pavilion?

You read too much into it.

I was just trying to solve

the problem standing between us.

And I asked Master.

He said nothing.

You asked your master?

His expression

looked a bit weird at that time.

Forget it.

I believe

that as long as we both work together,

we will be able to settle the grudges of different sects

and make the world a peaceful place again.

Rong Jingfeng was ambitious and cruel.

He had been secretly coveting your father's

heirloom--the Chihua Pill.

So he took the opportunity to kill him and seize the Chihua Pill.

Why are you following me?

I'm worried about your safety, Ma'am.

I had been looking for days

before I finally found you.

Why didn't you contact the disciples?

Mo Huan has been seriously injured by me.

You go back to Longyin City immediately

to spread this news to the whole Jianghu.

I want everyone to know

that it was Rong Su, the Hall Master of the Hall of Emptiness of Longyin City,

who injured Mo Huan, the unbeatable Supreme Master.

Yes.

But you are injured, too.

You'd better return to the City as soon as possible for treatments.

Not so fast.

I am going to stay here for the time being.

There are too many unsolved mysteries in Lu Yizhou.

Maybe I can find out Lin Jing's secret

by getting close to him.

I know what I am doing.

I will go back after my injury is healed.

Remember,

never tell Master Rong about my injury.

But do you really not want to return

simply just to recover from the injury

and investigate Lu Yizhou?

How dare you!

Good.

Rong Su did a great job.

Where is she now?

She…

She still has some small things to deal with.

So she has to delay some time.

But Master Rong, don't worry.

She is already on her way back to the City.

OK.

This time

Rong Su has bought

precious time for our city.

She made the greatest contribution.

Yes, sir.

Miss Rong Su has always been

sparing no effort

for the good of Longyin City.

Sparing no effort.

Well said!

Your master Rong Su

did a good job.

Rong Su, Rong Su, Rong Su!

I don't know what kind of important person

has come to our Snow Union.

You, as the leader, are actually taking care of that person personally

and even won't let me know who that is.

Sometimes it's better

to not know something.

Rest assured.

I am not interested in knowing it.

Supreme Master.

Rong Su's attack this time

made me understand one thing though.

If I want to practice the Dark Soldier Summoning Skill,

the Chihua Pill of three life cycles

are essential for me.

In this case,

Lin Ruohan is still useful to Supreme Master.

Immediately give a push

to seal the deal with Rong Su.

Let her exchange the Chihua Pill's antidote

for all the secrets of Lingxu Pavilion.

Yes.

All of you

are the main decision makers of Longyin City.

Today I summoned everyone to come

because I want to discuss with you something important.

Xuan Ye

Where exactly is Rong Su now?

What is her plan

and when will she come back?

Master Rong.

This time Mo Huan was seriously injured.

So Miss Rong Su believed

this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Therefore, she personally led people to pursue the whereabouts of Mo Huan.

If there is an opportune chance,

she will catch everybody involved.

Good!

What Rong Su has planned

is exactly what I am worried about.

If she has any more news,

report it to me immediately.

Yes.

Xuan Ye, you can go sit down.

I wonder if

Lu Yizhou has contacted Lin Jing.

Has he already known

what Miss Rong Su is really doing?

This year our city has been in constant troubles.

Two Chihua Pills were destroyed

and our status in Jianghu

was almost ruined.

Good thing that

Su found out the real culprit

and gave her a serious hammer.

But

this Mo Huan

is a scheming person.

Even if she is seriously injured,

we can't guarantee that she doesn't keep any contingency plan.

If she

makes a comeback,

the consequences will be unimaginable.

Right now,

the most important thing is to ensure that the antidotes

this year can be made successfully.

We're at a critical moment that

although it seems

everything is going smoothly on the surface,

there are hidden dangers everywhere

and we're not allowed to make any mistakes.

Please rest assured.

Outsiders don't

know the process of making the antidote.

Nothing will go wrong

if we take a little more care of it.

As long as

it remains the same long enough,

everything will have its vulnerability

which will give the enemy

opportunities.

In previous years

our Chihua Pill's antidotes

were sent one by one to various sects

by disciples of the Hall of Emptiness.

This year

I decided to change the mechanism

so we won't give the enemy any chance.

I decide

to keep all the antidotes

inside the city

and guarded by disciples of the Hall of Emptiness.

We will send disciples

to pick up

all those who own the Chihua Pill to the City.

I will choose an auspicious day

and give them the antidote one by one.

Xuan Ye

Yes, sir.

Now that Su is away,

it's up to you to handle this matter.

Yes.

Master Rong,

the blossoming season has arrived.

Will this year be the same as in previous years

that we close the garden to wait for the opportune time?

The flowers will be in full bloom

tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.

I have decided this year

I will personally guard the sea of flowers

and make the antidotes.

When it's late autumn,

it's time to pick the White Snow Lotuses

which will be sent to the Hall of Sickness.

Tonight, my dad will be in charge

of making antidotes.

Every year the same routine.

I heard my dad say

these rhizomes will never rot.

It just repeats the two flowering cycles of red and white.

The flowers will bloom twice

in totally different colors.

Kind of interesting.

They will be in full bloom tonight.

Dad will make them into the antidotes.

But only my dad knows

the process of making them.

No one else will be allowed to be present.

The Chihua Pill

was originally owned by my father's clan.

Why does Rong Jingfeng

know the development method of its antidote

while the Nalan family don't know?

What are you thinking about?

Maybe besides your father,

Mo Huan can also detoxify the Chihua Pill?

After Mo Huan ended her practice in seclusion,

the first thing she did

was come to the City and destroy the Chihua Pill.

So

maybe it was also Mo Huan

who taught my dad how to make the antidote.

That's very likely.

No wonder your father was so tense.

He was afraid that in the process of making the antidote,

accidents might happen.

But if this antidote

is stolen by Mo Huan,

Longyin City will be in trouble.

Whether it's my father

or Mo Huan

we can't make a breakthrough from them.

How can we get the antidote?

Now this sea of flowers

is guarded by your father.

We can't even enter.

Now the antidote is hard to get

for anyone who wants it.

In the past I could only

see the sea of flowers at noon.

I didn't expect

the view of flowers blooming at night

could be also beautiful.

Master Rong.

Dad.

This White Snow Lotus

withers when it's in full bloom.

The first snow of this year is coming soon.

You two should go back.

I will take over from here.

Dad.

Is the antidote to the Chihua Pill

really made with the White Snow Lotus?

This Chihua Pill

is the top secret of Longyin City.

In the future,

when the time is right,

I will tell you everything.

Lin Jing.

Hua is weak.

The breeze at night can be chilling.

Take her back to the City.

Okay.

Yes, sir.

Let's go.

Ying, don't get mad at me.

I tried my best to plan everything.

But what did you do?

You ganged up with strangers to lie to me

and also burned a large area of plum tree forest.

Let me ask you:

how can you help outsiders to frame your brother?

You are so talented

and smart.

You have replanted

the forest burned down in a few days.

Look. It has recovered.

There is no trace of damage at all!

You…

How can you chase after a man?

You didn't know he had manipulated you

to give him the Chihua Pill.

Let me ask you,

does Nalan Yue appreciate what you did for him?

I didn't do it because I wanted him to be grateful.

You…

Just let it go.

Ying,

at the beginning when you wanted me to get engaged with him,

you just wanted to seek protection for our Mei family.

Now Mrs. Lin has recognized me as her nominal foster daughter.

We achieved what we wanted.

We didn't give away the Chihua Pill in vain.

Fortunately, Lingxu Pavilion keeps its promise and

sent some people to guard it.

But this is not a long-term plan.

The Mei family and Lingxu Pavilion lack a marriage to secure their connection.

If we don't have some skills to our own,

even if we got someone's protection for now,

there will be the day when it disappears.

But we can't blame others for that.

We can only blame ourselves for our incompetence.

If we followed Dad to learn martial arts hard,

we wouldn't have depended on someone else for living.

The Mei family had been on a decline since Dad took over.

If we want to revive,

it's not something that happens overnight.

The reason why we can still be among the four major families in Jiangnan

is not because we have excellent martial arts,

but our expertise in formation and sorcery.

Only by keeping them exclusive to ourselves

can we wait for the opportunity to make a breakthrough.

But after they were passed down from generation to generation,

the tricks we used

had gradually become familiar to others.

And therefore, we lost our advantages.

No wonder

Cangqi easily broke the Plum Tree Forest Formation back then.

He must have done some research beforehand.

But why couldn't I break my brother's formation?

What are you mumbling about?

Let me ask you,

why did Nalan Yue propose

that you two become sworn brother and sister?

Did he threaten you?

No.

I was voluntary.

If I begged his mother,

she would force Nalan Yue to marry me.

But if you get something by begging,

one day you will lose it anyway.

I would rather he appreciates me

than hates me.

If we are strong enough,

we wouldn't have to feel inferior now.

Don't worry.

I must study hard

the Plum Blossom Spell.

Someday

I will make Nalan Yue to bow his head in front of you

and regret not marrying you.

Ying!

I am not hurt.

You got hurt when you recognized him as your sworn brother.

You have me as your real brother.

We don't need him to join us in such a pretentious manner.

Miss Rong.

I got you

the knife you want.

Just in a few days

you have forged this knife.

It's not easy for you.

Thank you.

My maternal ancestors

were a family of weaponsmiths.

I saw Mr. Lu's old knife.

It was indeed a good knife.

It's a pity that it was ruined.

Since it's your gift for him,

of course I would order them to work against the clock

so that I can give you the knife

before we leave for Longyin City.

Then I'll receive it with gratitude.

Thank you, Master Xiao.

Miss Rong

The pleasure is mine.

For the past many years

if Longyin City didn't help me,

I

would have died a long time ago.

This little thing is not worth mentioning.

I shall leave you two to chat.

I have to arrange

things for us to go to Longyin City.

Since you left silently,

why did you ask Xuan Ye to inform me to come here?

What do you want?

In the Ling Sect,

your knife was destroyed because you wanted to save me.

I asked him to create a knife exactly the same.

It's a compensation for your broken one.

It's also about paying back your favor of saving me.

This looks the same as mine.

I don't know how it feels in actual battle.

If you don't like it,

just throw it away.

I have sent out a thank-you gift.

Accept it or not is your own business.

Anyway, in the future

You and I are even.

I will go back to report my work tomorrow

and escort Master Xiao

to Longyin City.

So I'll say goodbye to you here.

Wait.

What are the odds?

I will be also headed that way.

We can go together!

You will be headed to the City?

Yes.

I need to find Lin Jing

and ask him to treat my injury.

I have to completely cure it

so there will be no sequelae.

I cherish my life.

Also this time I was hurt by the Ling Sect.

I have to deal with it seriously.

Miss Rong,

if you don't mind,

can you give me a ride on the way home?

Time is running out.

We're leaving tomorrow.

Yes

I won't be late!

We finally found out about it.

Dad! Dad!

Close the gate!

Master Rong,

please help us!

Master Rong!

Master Rong!

Please save my father!

Master Rong!

Please save my dad!

Dad,

don't leave me alone.

Dad!

Rong Jingfeng!

Rong Jingfeng!

Ying,

what's wrong?

I have some errands to run.

I'll be away for a few days.

When I'm not here,

I want you

to stay at home.

The house is under the protection of Lingxu Pavilion.

You're going to be fine.

Ying, is there

anything wrong?

It's OK.

I can handle it myself.

I'll be back in a few days.

Don't worry about it.

Ying,

we're the only survivors of the family.

Please let me know

if anything happens.

Where are you going?

Some secrets are just meant

to come to light.

I must handle it right now,

otherwise it will become a big problem.

If she is right

and that the antidote must be driven into one's meridians

through internal force,

the detoxication method must be very unique.

Next time,

when Rong Jingfeng cures the poisoned,

I have to find an excuse to let myself in.

If I'm right,

Rong Jingfeng betrayed Mo Huan,

stole the Chihua Pill,

built Longyin City

in order to

control the entire Jianghu

with the Chihua Pill.

But now,

Mo Huan is the enemy of Longyin City

Her goal is not the Chihua Pill.

She was badly hurt by Rong Su,

which made Rong Jingfeng very happy.

Is

Mo Huan's final goal

to control the entire Jianghu

with the Chihua Pill?

It's so weird.

It's so weird.

What are you looking at?

Well,

I'm just confused.

What's the relationship between

your father and Mo Huan?

Let's forget about the past.

Now, we only have two choices.

The first

is to turn to Mo Huan.

It's highly unlikely

that she will tell us

how to make the antidotes.

In that case,

we may as well turn to my father,

which would be easier.

I think

all these people

have something to do

with the Chihua Pill.

We must

figure

all this out.

Once we figure things out,

all our problems will be solved.

Here.

Have a look at this.

It's a detailed book

of the history of Longyin City.

I've finished reading it.

There is something weird

about it.

Many years ago,

the Mei family visited Longyin City

to ask for the Chihua Pill.

Theoretically,

every single visitor who has asked for the Chihua Pill

is supposed to be recorded in the book by the Hall of Emptiness.

However,

the book contains no record about the Mei family.

It's weird.

Every request for the Chihua Pill,

no matter approved or not,

will be recorded in detail.

It means they have never visited the place.

No, no, no.

Back then,

the head of the Mei family was badly hurt

in the rebellion of the vice head.

During the crisis,

I saved Xueman

and Mei Ying saved his father.

The head of the Mei family

was badly hurt and close to death.

But it doesn't prove

that they have visited Longyin City.

Then, there is only one possibility.

That is, they have been here for the Chihua Pill.

But someone

lied about it.

What makes you so sure?

Xueman told me about it.

Back then,

Mei Ying brought his father to Longyin City

and asked for the Chihua Pill.

When you were saved,

you insisted on going to Longyin City

despite your heavy injury.

Was it for the Chihua Pill?

At that time,

my family was no longer prestigious,

and my father was severely injured and about to die.

No matter how hard my brother begged,

they wouldn't give us

the precious Chihua Pill.

Instead,

they gave it to the prestigious Tang Sect.

So,

was it for vengeance

that Mei Ying went to the Tang Sect?

Sometimes, things are not

as simple as they seem to be.

My brother attacked the Tang Sect,

not because Rong Jingfeng

chose them over us.

It's because the Tang Sect

was doomed to perish.

I've read the files

during my last visit to Longyin City.

I didn't find any record about the Mei family.

So, when I returned to Lingxu Pavilion,

I visited Xueman

and asked about it.

Xueman said with great certainty

that Mei Ying did bring his father to Longyin City

for the Chihua Pill.

I came back to recheck the file,

still failing to find any record about it.

The Hall of Emptiness is in charge of

everything related to the Chihua Pill.

I just don't think

the whole thing

was a mistake made by Rong Su.

My sister is a prudent person.

She is unlikely to make such a mistake.

Then,

she must have lied about it.

She is very ambitious.

But whatever our father told her to do,

she'd do it well.

Why did she lie about it?

Rong Su runs everything

about the Chihua Pill,

including the distribution of it.

It would be easy for her

to make some secret moves.

I just don't get it.

Besides our father,

she is the most powerful person in Longyin City.

What else would she want?

Only she knows that.

Do you know where she is?

The whole thing is so complicated.

I'd better contact Lu Yizhou.

Ma'am,

it is done.

Did Mei Ying depart

after receiving the confidential letter?

He's been travelling

day and night.

I don't get it.

It has been so many years

since the fall of the Mei family.

Mei Ying has been keeping a low profile

and sheltering himself in his family fortress.

Why would he come over here

upon receiving your letter?

Many years ago,

the Mei family ranked first

among the four most influential families in Jiangnan.

Back then, the vice head of the family

enjoyed even higher reputation than the head.

In most cases, those who make his boss feel threatened

will soon be removed from office.

Do you know why he was an exception

to the rule?

Actually, the head of the Mei family

already knew that the family was about to decline.

Without making any breakthrough,

the family was going to lose its position.

Therefore, the head spent much effort on practicing swordsmanship

and finding great swords in the world.

As a great sword maker,

the vice head gained recognition from the head.

He was promoted

and entrusted with important tasks.

However, to everyone's astonishment,

he conspired with someone else and betrayed the Mei family.

The vice head

should be grateful.

Why did he betray his head?

With growing power,

who would play second fiddle

when he could become the boss?

What happened then?

Where did he go?

Among the four most influential families,

who rose to power

after the fall of the Mei family?

The Tang Sect.

So, it was Tang Sect who conspired with the vice head to crack the Mei family?

The fall of the Mei family

has some inherent reasons.

However, it was the betrayal of the vice head

that landed the knockout punch.

After that, the vice head changed his appearance.

These years,

his power has grown.

It must have something to do

with the support from the Tang Sect.

A great sword maker…

Is he…

My apologies, Master Xiao.

I didn't know you were here

and almost hurt you.

I'm really sorry.

It's alright.

Weapons are merciless.

Perhaps you were distracted

by my sudden appearance.

Never mind.

The thing is,

the weight and style of this sword

is exactly the same as the one you used to use.

How come…

It has nothing to do with the sword.

It's because I haven't recovered yet.

I just failed to control it properly

and almost hurt you.

Thanks for asking.

You're a promising young man.

I'm sure you'll become one with this sword

once you recover.

You must have spent a lot of time

on finding the iron to make this sword.

It's made of high-quality dark iron.

You deserve it.

I'd never use unqualified material

to make such a sword.

I knew it's a good sword

when my teacher gave it to me.

It's unbelievable

that you made this sword

within such a short time.

It's very impressive.

Speaking of the art of making swords,

you're the best.

It's no big deal.

There is nothing special about making swords.

The secret lies in choosing the material.

Your sword was very sharp.

What I did was just follow the example.

I don't think I deserve the credit.

You're being modest.

Your soaring reputation

must have something to do

with your good personality

and social graces.

I admire that.

I just have one quick question.

Do you belong to any sect?

I'm flattered.

I randomly pick up martial arts

during my travel around the world.

There is nothing special about it.

Well,

you haven't recovered yet.

On our way back, we'd stop a few times to rest.

I'm not sure if we can make it to Longyin City tonight.

We might miss the distribution of the antidotes.

Don't worry.

We're not far from Longyin City.

We'll make it there before tonight.

We're not far from Longyin City.

Today is the day that Master Rong distributes the antidotes.

We promised Snow Union

that we'll trade the Chihua Pill for information.

This is the only chance we have.

The antidotes used to be under the charge of the Hall of Emptiness.

But this year,

being cautious against Mo Huan,

Master Rong will be there distributing the antidotes.

I'm afraid

it'll be hard for us to get the antidotes

when we're back in Longyin City.

That's why

I have to escort Master Xiao myself.

This time, we can't let him return to the City.

Only when he is kept out of the City

can the antidotes be delivered out of the City.

It's the only chance for us to intervene.

You worked so hard

to rope Master Xiao in

in order to gain more power.

It's a pity that you have to sacrifice him so soon.

I did all these things

so that someone would make sacrifice for us when the time comes.

Once Master Xiao is killed,

Master Rong will investigate his death.

Our plan must be flawless.

We need to find a scapegoat.

The killer

is already on the road.

If Master Xiao

was the vice head of the Mei family,

then the purpose of your sending that letter

to Mei Ying

is to

draw him out?

Back then, Mei Ying

brought his father to Longyin City for the Chihua Pill

and ended up being insulted.

Therefore, before he departs,

I'd better not reveal my identity.

When the Tang Sect joined hands with the vice head

to get rid of the head of the Mei family,

the two parties had a fight.

They were both badly hurt

and went to Longyin City at the same time.

However, seeing that the Mei family was on the decline,

Master Rong gave the Chihua Pill to the Tang Sect.

A few days ago,

the head of the Tang Sect was killed

and the Chihua Pill was stolen.

I suspect the Mei family was behind it.

I didn't confront him

because I thought he could come in handy someday.

Well,

I guess today is the day.

In that case,

we must act tonight.

Then,

what about Lu Yizhou?

I'll take care of him.

Ask Longyin City to send someone to deliver the antidote immediately.

Watch the antidote delivery guy really close.

We can't risk it.

Well,

it seems we're missing one.

We've prepared it.

Look here.

Good. Good.

So, these are the antidotes to the Chihua Pill?

That's right.

Master Rong got exhausted

from making these antidotes through the night.

Mr. Bai, please deliver the antidotes

to the rooms of all those sect heads.

Lin Jing,

you'll be escorting him.

Make sure nothing goes wrong.

Everyone is in Longyin City,

right under his nose.

What could go wrong?

Even so,

we can't be too careful.

Oddly enough,

we haven't heard from Rong Su

who is escorting Master Xiao.

Did you send anyone

to inquire about it?

Xuan Ye replied,

saying that Master Xiao offered to take another route

and that they tried to be more secretive

because Rong Su was injured.

We need to be more careful.

There is nothing to worry about.

Rong Su

is resourceful.

She will take the fall

if she fails to bring him back in one piece.

She just did a good job.

There is no way

she'd give up this chance to take the credit.

Like I said,

there is nothing to worry about.

Lin Jing,

let's go.

Follow me.

Like they said, Rong Jingfeng is way more cautious this time.

All the disciples look solemn.

Hey,

I've been curious

about one thing.

I'm listening.

You see, the antidotes

are made from the petals

instead of the leaves.

But why would Master Rong

still collect the leaves?

You…

Come with me.

Come with me.

Here. Here.

Here.

You two

are excused.

Hey,

did you spy on Master Rong when he prepared the antidotes?

It's a secret

which is known by few.

Where did you learn about it?

What are you talking about?

It's my guess.

Your guess?

Your little bastard,

you were getting me to talk.

I didn't say anything.

I don't know anything about it.

How could you say that?

You…

Wait a moment.

Wait a moment.

You're very cunning.

You must have discovered it

through some details.

I'll talk to Master Rong.

Precautious measures

must be improved.

So,

I'm right, am I?

I…

Oh, gosh!

I'm so proud of myself!

I got it right

the first time!

So what?

Even though you know the antidote is made of petals,

you can't do anything about it

because you don't know how to apply it.

Alright. Alright.

I don't expect you to know more.

Do you know

how to apply the antidote?

Of course I do.

First of all, the antidote is not to be swallowed.

Later,

I'll seal his heart meridian with a silver needle.

Then,

you cut his middle finger with a knife,

pour in the antidote through the cut,

and use internal force to catalyze it

so that the antidote will find its way to his heart.

You see, the nerves of the fingertips are linked to the heart.

This method enables the antidote to reach the heart meridian.

Oh, I see.
