Your Majesty.

The two ghosts have waited for a long time outside.

Should I bring them in?

Your Majesty.

How many casualties are there?

Forty-seven died this time.

-The wounded are three-- -Enough!

Although our plans failed

and we didn't achieve anything,

we had put in our efforts.

Qianqiao.

Grant them this month's antidotes.

Yes, sir.

Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

Master.

Hurry up!

Hurry up!

Your Majesty, look who I've brought you.

Antidote!

Where's mine?

Gu Xiang!

Gu Xiang!

Xiang'er!

Your Majesty.

Gu Xiang is just a small servant in the Ghost Valley.

Why are you doing this?

Your Majesty.

This girl is the only person whom the Lunatic Wen trusts.

We can definitely find out

Lunatic Wen's whereabouts from her.

We're in no hurry.

Qianqiao.

-Yes. -Untie Ms. Amethyst Fiend.

I shall have a good talk with her.

Chief Mo.

Do you still remember

the motto of the Gentle Wind Sword Sect?

"A man lives when his sword is intact.

A man dies when his sword breaks.

Be righteous

and demolish demons."

You still remember.

Then do you remember one of the rules of our sect?

"A disciple of the Gentle Wind Sect shall not be associated with demons."

Today, you have to explain yourself in front of the portrait of our master.

Why did you do that today?

I allied with the chief of the Five Lakes Alliance.

He is not a demon.

He chose to work with the enemy

by using the Scorpion Sect

and taming the evil ghosts of the Ghost Valley.

I can't control what they do.

Chief Mo.

Do you want me to explain

to our disciples using these excuses?

Chief Gao's death is a mystery.

It's very suspicious.

It must be Zhao Jing!

Chief Gao

handed you the Glazed Armor, which he cherished more than his life.

But you…

Firstly,

I didn't hand the Glazed Armor to anyone.

Secondly,

in such a dangerous situation today,

could you resolve it

without my association with Zhao Jing?

As a leader,

my priority is

to maintain the legacy of our sect.

I'm not guilty of anything.

Even if one day, we are forced into a corner

and that's the only way to rescue the whole sect,

I don't mind

losing my reputation.

I would rather die than act against the principles.

Back then,

everyone accused Chief Gao of associating with the Ghost Valley

and killing his brothers.

Looking at it now,

Zhao Jing is the one who's working with Ghost Valley!

Enough!

Do you think I'm too stupid or too cruel?

I'm acting along with Zhao Jing.

I have my own plans.

Huaiyang, what are you planning to do?

Only if I become the supreme leader of the martial arts world

in the upcoming Heroes Conference

and lead all heroes to exterminate the Ghost Valley,

will I have the right to take control then.

Mr. Gao died tragically.

I must carry his burden.

But what can these pieces of glass do?

If you trust me,

follow my lead.

I trust you, Huaiyang.

I…

I know you didn't do it.

Previously,

I misunderstood you.

Open the door.

Forgive me.

My lord, we're late.

Xingming?

Be careful! Protect our lord!

As the chief of the Window of Heaven,

you were once powerful and ruled over people's lives.

But in the end, you're saved by some juniors

and have to flee for your life.

Without the prince's support,

who do you think you are?

You!

What's your name again?

You're a disciple of Old Bi. Am I right?

I'm Bi Xingming.

Old Bi is stupid enough.

I didn't expect that his disciple

would be more stupid.

Do you think you can steal away

such an important criminal out of the heavily guarded prison?

Absolutely idiotic!

You're the disciples of the old Window of Heaven.

Each of you is being monitored by a few spies.

I knew from the start that you planned to break into jail for him.

But you sensed nothing.

Did your dead masters

know how stupid you are?

-But I must thank you. -You…

You brought Lord Zhou out.

Anything could happen in combat.

When I was chasing after the fugitive,

I killed him by accident.

This is not violating the prince's command, right?

I'm not stupid!

My lord.

I, the disciple of Cheng Xiu, Cheng Zichen

am willing to sacrifice myself today to protect you!

I shall make your wish come true then.

What are you waiting for?

Leave with them.

Retreat with the brothers first.

Yes.

My brothers! Let's go!

Who are you, sir?

I'm Wen.

Wen Kexing.

The chief of the Ghost Valley?

This was supposed to be a secret.

You're putting me in an awkward situation by saying it out loud.

Chief Wen, you're here at the right time.

Even if you didn't come,

I intend to visit the Ghost Valley

to ask you for one thing.

Did I mishear you?

I didn't kill you,

yet you dare to ask things from me?

Chief Wen, stop pretending.

You've been too self-centered for too long,

not knowing any better about this world.

How dare you snatch this criminal from Jin all by yourself!

You've underestimated the Window of Heaven!

You've revealed yourself.

My army will be here in no time.

Even if you're excellent at martial arts,

you're all alone.

Who said that he's alone?

Where is Chengling?

I've escorted him to a safe place. Don't worry.

In this case,

we brothers

can give it a go.

Wen Kexing! What are you trying to do?

You've called me Chief.

As the chief of 3,000 ghosts,

would I come here alone

to save him?

Kill them!

-Retreat! -Hurry up! Retreat!

Retreat!

-Chief! -Chief!

Greetings, my lord. I'm Bi Xingming.

Greetings, my lord. I'm Cheng Zichen.

-Greetings, my lord. -Greetings, my lord.

Zishu.

Before Han Ying died,

he trusted me with these children.

I accepted them without asking you.

It was Han Ying's lifelong wish

to accept them into the Four Seasons Manor.

That's my wish as well.

I'm the unworthy second disciple of the Four Seasons Manor, Wen Kexing.

Greetings, my lord.

SAIJUN MANSION

Gu Xiang, they are back!

Master!

We're here.

SAIJUN MANSION

Master!

Sick Man! This is great!

Master, are you injured?

Who can hurt me?

Why are you here?

It's a long story. I'll tell you later.

Sick Man.

Why did the goddamn prince hurt you so badly?

You just wait. My master and I will avenge you later!

With your martial arts skills?

Beiyuan?

Zishu.

It has been many years. How have you been?

Mr. Wen, please calm down.

Though the Nails of Seven Torments is hard to deal with,

it's not hopeless.

Zishu has overcome many difficulties.

He will overcome this one too.

Prince Qi,

as long as you can heal Zhou Xu's injury, I will…

I'll try my best to repay you.

You don't have to say this.

Zishu and I have known each other since young.

It's just that he became colder as he grew up.

LIVING IN SECLUSION FOR ONE'S AMBITIONS

He never asks for help even if he needs it.

He never treats me as his friend.

Prince Qi, you knew Zhou Xu a long time ago?

Yes.

Looking at it now,

it has been so long as if it was from my past life.

Mr. Wen!

The brothers are here.

Mr. Wen.

Prince Qi.

These children

are disciples of the Four Seasons Manor.

Before the manor is rebuilt,

I might need to keep them at your place.

Mr. Wen.

Wu Xi and I can be who we are today

thanks to Zishu.

I'll be offended

if you keep regarding me as an outsider.

Greetings from Bi Xingming, Prince Qi.

What's your relationship with Bi Changfeng?

He was my master.

I was fortunate to inherit my master's surname.

Very good.

Right.

While we're on this topic,

I received a piece of news from my warrior, Ah Qinlai.

He escorted Chengling to Chief Shen Shen

of Mount Dagu Sect safely.

Since Zishu has been rescued,

should we bring him back?

Great Shaman, how was it? Can you save him?

Please allow me. I'm used to serving my master.

It's fine. I'll do it.

Let me do it instead.

This kid. Why is he so obedient?

Right, my lord.

I forgot to inform you.

It was all thanks to Mr. Wen.

He contacted me with the mark left by Mr. Han.

He made a good plan and led us.

What did you call me?

You should call us "Master" and "Master Wen."

Greetings…

There's no rush.

You can acknowledge us formally

along with your senior.

Wen Kexing.

I have 19 young men in my sect now.

Aren't you going to share some of my burdens?

No problem, Lord Zhou.

You may leave first.

All right. Yes.

Let's go.

Zhou Xu.

Why weren't you shocked

when you saw me outside the jail?

I was looking forward to seeing your expression.

What's so surprising?

I didn't know when

or how you would come.

But I knew

you would definitely come.

No wonder.

So you were about to run away with your lover?

Yes.

Little girl.

Why are you feeling proud about this?

Of course.

If Weining is willing to come along with me,

it means that I'm more important to him,

compared to all the stupid rules in the martial arts world.

Of course I'm happy!

You're right. Ms. Gu Xiang, you are bold.

You are like the girls of Nanjiang.

Yes. She's like the people from Nanjiang,

who's good at carrying off children from decent families by fraud.

Right. Ms. Gu Xiang.

Tell me how you two manage to elope.

It's a wonderful story.

Gu Xiang!

Gu Xiang!

Why didn't you light up your room?

I forgot.

How was it? What's happening?

I still don't get it now.

I feel like I have had a nightmare.

Master has allied with the Five Lakes Alliance.

No.

What's with the Drug Men then?

If they were allies,

why did the Drug Men surround Mount Qingfeng?

Did you see the man in the black robe?

He's the Black Grim Reaper.

Why was a subordinate of the Ghost Valley there?

Chief Zhao has convinced the seven sects.

They will hold the Heroes Conference again.

Those devils

have already surrendered to Chief Zhao.

That's impossible.

It's not strange that Black Grim Reaper would turn his back.

But Qianqiao would never betray her master.

You don't know.

Qianqiao is the Beauty Ghost.

Don't listen to Zhao Jing's nonsense.

-He's not a decent man. -Gu Xiang.

Master Fan told me this.

I could only listen to him.

Gu Xiang,

I don't understand.

I don't want to look into it either.

I was told that my master was planning to pursue more.

He asked me not to look into it.

But…

But I understand even if I don't ask.

This is not right.

It's not right.

Weining, what's wrong?

I'm just…

Gu Xiang.

We promised each other.

If Master Mo and Master Fan don't agree to our marriage,

we will elope.

Are you being serious?

Let's run away.

I don't care about being a righteous man and you're not evil.

We shall leave.

I don't understand and I don't want to.

Let's leave the martial arts world.

We can open a dessert shop or a cosmetics shop.

We can raise cows and a farm. We can do anything.

What do you say?

Yes.

That's all. So we ran away.

Isn't it great?

Indeed.

Mr. Cao can distinguish right from wrong.

He's a real man.

You are marrying the right man.

Wait a minute.

I still don't get it.

Zhao Jing has allied with Mo Huaiyang of the Gentle Wind Sect

since the beginning?

Yes. But he hid it.

He didn't tell his son, Scorpion King.

Scorpion King fought for nothing.

He must be extremely angry.

This is not right, Gu Xiang.

Since you've decided to run away,

how did you meet the people from the Ghost Valley?

And how did you find us?

What's wrong?

I'm sorry, Prince Qi.

Mr. Wen doesn't allow Gu Xiang to talk about this part.

He will cut her tongue off if she does.

All right, then.

It's fine. You don't have to.

Luckily, you found Mr. Wen in time.

Otherwise, we would have to throw our lives into it.

Gu Xiang.

Does Mr. Wen have to return to the Ghost Valley?

He was finally reunited with Mr. Zhou.

He will come back after stepping down as chief

and helping Madam Luo and her men settle down.

But the Exorcism Assembly is starting soon.

All heroes will go to Mount Qingya.

They can do whatever they want.

I only care about my sisters from the Department of the Unfaithful.

There's nothing good about the Ghost Valley.

Who cares if they die?

All right. Hopefully, everything goes well.

How does the silly girl usually fold the clothes?

You're here in time.

What's wrong?

Why do you look so glum?

Master, I'm still worried.

Can you not return to the Ghost Valley?

We just have to take care of the sisters in the Department of the Unfaithful.

Let the other ghosts find their own way home.

They're all traitors anyway. Who cares if they die?

That's childish.

Don't worry.

I'll come back right away.

You only need to take care of Zhou Xu for me.

Master, you can't hide it from me.

I'm not stupid.

I brought Scorpion King to you

because I thought you could make him surrender.

But if you get hurt from this, I…

I will never forgive myself.

And I saw it myself.

Those silly ghosts were controlled by Scorpion King's secret medicine.

They listened to him like pugs.

Why did they come back and serve you

after your secret talk with Scorpion King?

Although Scorpion King hates Zhao Jing,

that is not enough of a reason for him to help his enemy.

You even know that he's helping his enemy?

Seems like you've gotten smarter since being with Weining.

Master, don't change the topic!

Weining has said this…

You're asking a tiger…

Asking a tiger for what?

Asking a tiger for its skin!

I know that you were desperate

to save Zhou Xu back then.

But Master,

please tell me what you have promised him.

I've told you previously.

Never mention my plot

with Scorpion King to anyone else,

especially Zhou Xu.

I didn't.

I just think I should also know what the plot is.

Master, I'm so worried about you.

Silly girl.

Scorpion King acts along with me

because it benefits him too.

I'll explain this to you some other time.

The priority now

is for Zhou Xu to heal as soon as possible.

Don't worry.

Great Shaman has said

that once Zhou Xu's condition improves to his best,

we need another master to be here

to remove the nails.

I'll come back before that.

Now that you have said so,

I won't keep you.

Right. You may leave me behind a hundred times,

but not even once when it comes to that Sick Man.

You're jealous of a man?

No.

Why are you jealous because of me?

Why aren't you jealous because of Weining?

He won't make me jealous.

Master,

you must come back safely.

Have confidence in me, all right?

Even if I am asking a tiger for its skin,

do you think I can't outwit and defeat Scorpion King?

Who's the tiger?

Who's the hunter?

We don't know yet.

-Chief is back! -Chief is back!

-All evils retreat! -All evils retreat!

-All ghosts return! -All ghosts return!

Welcome back, Chief.

My apologies.

But there's only one chair

in your hall.

If you like it,

I can let you be the chief of the Ghost Valley.

How about that?

That won't be necessary.

I don't think

I can handle a critical downfall.

You'd better keep

the position to yourself, Chief Wen.

Chengling.

Enough!

Stop practicing!

Chengling!

You can't master martial arts overnight.

I know you're upset, but you can't push yourself too hard.

Training days and nights

might not benefit you.

Chengling.

Mr. Shen.

Can you talk some sense into Chengling?

Mr. Shen.

TO SHEN SHEN

"Demolish the ghosts and cleanse the world."

The Exorcism Assembly is confirmed?

We finally have the chance to carry out

what Gao Chong couldn't.

"White Deer Town"?

This name sounds familiar.

White Deer Town

is right outside Mount Qingya.

The first chief of the Ghost Valley, Magic Craftsman Rong Changqing,

was buried in White Deer Town.

The Exorcism Assembly is held here

so that we can exterminate the Ghost Valley in one go

with this opportunity.

Mr. Shen, are you going to the assembly too?

I want to ask you two about it.

If I were the one to make the call, I wouldn't bother to go there.

I just want to fulfill the wishes of your fathers,

watching you grow up and form your own families.

But Chengling,

although I don't know

how Zhou Zishu is involved in this,

Wen Kexing will definitely return to the Ghost Valley.

What do you think?

Chief, I deserve to die.

Who did you offend?

Why are you here to serve me as the scapegoat?

Yes. Serving…

Being able to serve Chief

is my honor, is--

Enough. Get out.

Yes.

What are you afraid of?

No matter how fierce a ghost is,

as long as it finds the path to the human world,

it will choose to become human again.

Madam Luo.

Why?

Shouldn't you be serving your new master?

Kexing.

Why are you back again?

Why don't you leave?

Madam Luo.

It has been eight years since you last called me this.

I'm sorry, Chief.

It was a slip of the tongue.

I know. I'm not qualified to call you this way.

Scorpion King

has used the Drunk Like a Dream

to neutralize the effect of the Soup of Oblivion.

Now,

I remember everything.

Back then, in the Healer Valley,

your parents took care of me

and consoled me.

They not only cured me,

but also offered me help when I needed it.

But I…

I hate myself for not being able to save them.

Luckily…

Luckily, I saved you.

But I didn't take good care of you.

Madam Luo.

Madam Luo.

I have always remembered your kindness.

I really don't understand.

Why are you back in this doomed place?

Madam Luo.

I've recalled everything.

I thought I succeeded in resisting the effect of the Soup of Oblivion

and remembered all the murderers who killed my parents.

All these years,

you saw me killing them one by one.

You must know it clearly.

But I was wrong.

The moment I drank the Soup of Oblivion,

my obsession was

that I led the enemy in.

I indirectly killed my parents.

Everything could have ended differently.

But it's another story now.

I've been the chief of the Ghost Valley for eight years.

Every day, I have to stay alert in case anyone tries to kill me.

I have to come up with plans to kill others too.

Even after killing all the murderers,

I didn't feel happy that I had finally taken my revenge,

but I felt anxious and tortured instead.

I thought that was also hatred

as I didn't take revenge on all the people who pushed my parents down the cliff.

Hence, I put in so much effort to set a trap.

An interlocking murder game.

Madam Luo.

Do you know my initial plan?

Hanged Ghost didn't steal my Glazed Armor.

I don't have the Glazed Armor either.

I killed him secretly long ago.

That was just an excuse.

Chief!

My plan was to reenact the Battle of Mount Qingya.

No.

I wanted to light a bigger fire

to burn up all the filthiness in this world!

Those so-called decent sects in the martial arts world

are simply greedy ghosts covered with human skin!

They should die together with the monsters of Mount Qingya!

I let you out to the martial arts world

and released the news of the Glazed Armor

all for this plan.

Once you enter the Ghost Valley, you're isolated from the human world.

Whoever comes to Mount Qingya

for their desire of the Glazed Armor

will die here.

Kexing, what do you mean?

Are you…

Are you planning to die with them?

Since I set up such an evil trap,

I didn't consider other things.

I didn't consider

how many innocent people would die from this

because at that time, I thought

the world had turned its back on me,

so I wouldn't mind killing everyone in the world.

Until later,

a man taught me something.

Hatred is the same as greediness.

It cages people and makes them suffer.

My parents

and even you, Madam Luo.

The reason why you tried so hard to save me,

is not for me to bury myself in the past.

Madam Luo.

I've made a deal with Scorpion King. We'll get what we need.

Tomorrow onward,

I'll ask him to remove

the poison in you and Qianqiao.

Take the girls from the Department of the Unfaithful out of this valley.

As long as we let go of our hatred,

we are in the human world.

Why should we cage ourselves up?

Since you've decided to let go,

I'll give you my blessings.

You have your own decision.

I have made mine as well.

I'm willing

to suffer in this Ghost Valley forever.
