"This is an era"

"that people tend to have assassins solving their problems"

"The organization with the strongest assassin is called"

"Ghost Valley"

I am one of the top 4 assassins of the Ghost Valley,

Qi Jun-yuan, the Blue Asura.

Under the recommendation of my master, the Horrifying Judge,

I entered the Valley

and become one of the Valley's 20th generation of assassins.

During one of the unrests,

I lost my arm while protecting the Valley.

The overlord of the Valley, Golden Mask gave me an artifect.

The Arm of Asura.

Everyone who has joined the Valley has the same goal,

revenge.

When I was young, my father once help a mysterious man

to made a copper map depicting hidden ancient treasures,

and my entire clan of 37 relatives were massacred for it.

The map has been lost,

the search for this map has led to bloodbaths across the realm.

Now, the treasure map has been found.

Is this some kind of conspiracy?

Who is behind it?

I have to avenge my murdered family,

and unravel this plot myself.

"Song of Assassins"

"South Ling"

"East Siang"

"East Siang City"

"Chai Kang, Duke Rui"

"Chai Sheng, Lord of East Siang"

My lord, I have investigated.

The copper map of lost ancient treasures that has vanished

is now in the possession of the Governor of Border City.

Then why didn't he turn it in?

"Zhao Chuang, Commander of the Imperial Army"

I sent my messengers to him twice, but both times he refused to.

If the map were taken by a hostile state,

they can retrieve the treasure and will launch an invasion.

Then...

Brother, you have no cause for concern.

If you had listened to my advice and struck first,

we'd have been the overlord of the realm.

Duke Rui.

- That is not true. - Zhao Chuang.

Don't forget that I promoted you Commander of Imperial Army myself.

I'd have thought it was some big deal.

My lord.

Please don't worry.

Governor Gu is a greedy man.

I am willing to travel there myself and bribe him with a large sum,

so that the copper map can be returned to my lord.

Commander Zhao.

If you go there on your own, it'd be a very dangerous mission.

For the safety of our country,

it is my obligation to do so.

"South Ling"

"South Ling City"

My lord...

Lady Fleur has been waiting.

It looks really nice.

Be careful with the thread.

You're always so clumsy.

- How about this thread? - It is good.

- My lady, how about this? - This one will do.

Ming, get me a pearl.

- Is this suitable? - Yes.

My lady, you've put so much care and effort embroidering this royal robe.

I've said before, I must craft it with my own hands.

The lord is lucky.

"Lady Fleur, Mistress of South Ling"

My lord.

I've found out that.

The country of East Siang will issue a secret decree,

Chai Sheng will send Zhao Chuang to the Governor of their Border City.

The trip is to receover the lost treasure map.

Zhao Chuang.

People call him the silent wolf.

The reticent ones

are often only reluctant to speak their minds.

He was able to win Chai Sheng's trust

shows that he shouldn't be underestimated.

Should we eliminate him as soon as possible?

To eliminate him, one doesn't need to do so in the name of South Ling.

Don't worry,

I will deliver this map to you without issue.

Back in the day, people have forewarned me.

They said you're a scarlet woman and warned me not to be with you.

You're starting to regret it?

"Ghost Valley"

"Golden Mask, 18th overlord of the Valley"

I can't imagine Duke Rui

would pay a visit to tramps like us.

Golden Mask.

I have a favour to ask.

Your highness has an army of thousands,

you don't need our involvement.

What I'm asking your grace

is something I'm not at liberty to do.

When the deed is done,

I'll make sure to repay you with our assistance.

I want you to retrieve the copper treasure map from my governor.

And then,

assassinate Zhao Chuang, Commander of the Imperial Army.

God have mercy.

I, Zhao Chuang, pray to god.

Please protect and ensure the success of this expedition

may you bless my lord, my people

and so do my country.

"Horrifying Judge, Head coach of weaponry"

Golden Mask.

The last commandment from the Valley.

Let go of hatred and prevail in righteousness.

Now Duke Rui asks us for a favour.

The Valley can leverage his might

and do some good in these turbulent times.

It's not hard to kill Zhao Chuang.

But for the copper map, it's been a matter of dispute for years.

If your grace doesn't mind my old age,

I'm willing to get to the bottom of this myself.

Who we will send

will be announced at the lantern festival tomorrow night,

but don't involve your pupil in this no matter what.

The copper map caused the annihilation of his entire family,

I don't want him to complicate things.

The map appearing at this time

makes me feel like it's a bad omen.

"Glass Beach"

Good.

Master.

Jun-yuan.

I knew you'd be here to watch the play,

so I bought some smoke for you on the way.

Try it.

If you like it, I'll get you more.

The more I smoke this,

the more it troubles my mind.

Master.

We both know about the reappearance of the copper treasure map.

I still haven't found my family's murderer,

there's got to be a huge plot behind it.

The treasure map is my only lead,

I must take it back.

Do you know why do I want to see the play?

Because all I wanted was to watch in the audience,

instead of being forced to take to the stage.

But this drama of the treasure map

has been unfolding for decades.

I don't want my pupil

to be forced to take to the stage.

I know that the Valley

will send someone to find the whereabouts of the map.

Master, I hope

that you will send me.

- Master. - It's about time for the riddles.

We give out 108 prizes for riddles everyday here at Glass Beach.

It's the right time.

The person who will carry out this mission

will be announced by Golden Mask's people at the lantern festival.

"Black Impermanence, White Impermanence"

"Yamaraja of 10th Palace, Faceless Raksasi"

"Marine Mountain Ghost, Red Mountain Ghost"

The winner today is One-legged Mountain Ghost.

"One-legged Mountain Ghost"

How can they send a Mountatin Ghost for such a important mission?

No one can stop me.

I've made a promise to myself on my first day in the Valley,

I'll leave the Valley as soon as I've made the revenge for my family

and go find a world that truly belongs to me.

At the moment, I'm excited beyond reason.

I don't know whether it's because

I'm about to find clues for me to take my revenge,

or because I see the bright lights of the future.

"Dragon Temple"

You, go maneuver the dragon body.

Give me a chance, can I try the head this time?

Here.

Your change.

Pancakes, hot pancakes!

Don't underestimate me, they call me the Oracle.

If I say you're to live, you will not die.

If I say you're to die, there's no way you can live.

Wait a minute.

You and I,

do we know each other?

When will this blizzard end?

Come on, the dragon dance is about to start.

- Come on! - Let's go!

- Come on! - Hurry up!

Come here, the dragon dance is about to start.

Governor Gu, you have to understand this.

The news that you have the treasure map in your possession

is now widely known.

Lord Chai is offering you 100 catty of gold

in exchange of the copper treasure map.

Why do you think I'd be willing to give it up?

You've seen the map.

The treasures it depicts are hidden in the capital,

so you won't be able to take them on your own.

Mountain Ghost.

Fine.

Give me.

Who are you?

Blue Asura?

I'll take it from here.

You two go ahead and grab the treasure map.

Yes, sir!

Blue Asura.

That's me.

Who are you?

Don't follow me.

Don't go.

You aren't following orders.

You'd like to see the dragon dance?

I'll play with you next time.

Close all the city gates, I want to take them alive.

Yes, sir!

Go ahead, I'm fine.

Yes, sir!

Governor Gu, sorry to have kept you waiting.

Meng-die.

You attacked him and destroyed my leads.

I know you're from the disguise troop of my Valley,

Do you know who I am?

You're from my Valley, Blue Asura.

Obey your orders.

Did the Valley send you?

"White"

Is that White Impermanence?

"Ghostly Umbrella"

"White Impermanence, Executive officer of domestic discipline"

Blue Asura.

You have the nerve to break the Valley's rules

that causing the death of five brothers from the Valley.

Give me the copper map now and return to the Valley with me.

We've been double-crossed.

That's the standards of a pupil of the Judge.

Don't criticise my master.

So what if I criticise him?

I, Impermanence have the authority to declare him guilty.

Can you beat him in a fight? How can you declare him guilty?

Who said so?

I said so.

The both of you, which one of you is a better fighter?

Me, of course.

White Impermanence, do you have the guts to spar with me?

What kind of weapon?

On her count of three, we'll each throw our dart.

Let's see who is quicker.

Agree.

You asked for trouble.

One.

Slow down.

Two.

Three.

You fool.

- There's an assassin! - Capture the assassin!

- You go over there! - Yes, sir!

- You go there. - Yes, sir!

Over there, hurry.

Here's your beverage, sir.

Waiter, where's my drink?

Master.

The word in the Valley is that...

Attempt to retrive the treasure map,

you has put five of your Valley brothers in harm's way.

Golden Mask has made a ruling.

You didn't just break the rules,

"Blue Asura, Qi Jun-yuan"

but a traitor to the Valley.

Master.

It's not that simple.

There must be secrets inside the pearl.

Jun-yuan.

I advise you to stop.

No, I must find out the secret of the treasure map.

If I capture you,

I'd betray my heart.

But if I don't capture you,

I'd betray the Valley.

What do you want me to do?

Unless my machete cannot take you down,

I swing my blade and hit you in the stomach.

Master.

And my legs kick you.

But when I'm about to turn around,

you hit my right arm with your dart.

Throw your dart.

Your dart!

Take the girl who carry out missions for the Valley as hostage,

and run.

I certainly can't capture a traitor like you at the expense

of sacrificing the more important missions for the Valley, right?

That's why, all I can do is to let you go.

Master.

Take care of yourself.

Black Impermanence is the next.

So be careful.

Let me take a look what the Valley asks you to do.

"Take the treasure map from Governor Gu"

"and deliver it to the Divine Pavilion in Deyuan."

"The Valley will arrange for receipt."

What is your name?

Qin Sheng-sheng.

How did you know I'd be going to Dragon Temple today?

I didn't know.

I was sitting at a fortune teller's stall,

I just drew a fortune stick.

Was it accurate?

The ones in the past were accurate,

but I don't know about future ones.

That's right.

For assassins like us,

the future is unpredictable.

Mind if I read the poem of the fortune stick?

I've thrown it away.

But I remember the poem.

Alone and adrift, hoping for the weather to clear.

Years go by in a puff of smoke, snowflakes fly and I ask why.

Drfting along the stream,

finally a hero yearns for one night's drink into oblivion.

But what if we're not destined for each other,

and the fear of parting becomes my new sorrow.

How did you end up in the Ghost Valley?

My parents abandoned me when I was young.

I was persecuted, but the Valley saved me.

I heard that your arm

was chopped off by your lover in the Valley,

is that true?

She did it against her will.

We were all victims.

Who told you?

Everyone in the Valley knows.

I don't want to talk about this anymore.

- What happened to her? - She died.

I want to know

that even after she'd chopped your arm off,

why can't you forget her?

She told me before she died.

As long as I have the Arm of Asura with me,

she's there with me.

Why did anyone know the Valley's mission ahead of time.

Those four Warriors from the West set their eyes on me as the target,

how did they know I'd be involved?

It seemed like a trap set for me.

I'm sure that Qin saved me with her music,

but why didn't she admit to it.

I just drew a fortune stick.

Is she a friend or foe?

I should go.

I saw you yesterday, you seemed to enjoy this rice ball.

So I asked the shop to make some,

you can eat them on your journey.

There sure is enough.

I hope...

As long as the rice balls are there,

I'm there with you.

Drifting along the stream,

finally a hero yearns for one night's drink into oblivion.

But what if we're not destined for each other,

and the fear of parting becomes my new sorrow.

I won't say farewell.

"Deyuan"

"Take the treasure map from Governor Gu"

"and deliver it to the Divine Pavilion in Deyuan."

"The Valley will arrange for receipt."

"Divine Pavilion"

Thank you sir.

You hired someone from the Ghost Valley

which means I am hired by you as well,

so why do you need all this hassle?

Duke Rui.

Did your overlord tell you this?

At this juncture,

there are not that many who can afford to hire from the Valley.

Such as Meng and Lady Fleur in South Ling.

But in East Siang?

It must be Chai Sheng and Duke Rui.

Many desire the treasure map,

but the one who desires Zhao Chang's head

might only be Duke Rui then.

Then what I want is ready?

I want to ask you a question.

In Dragon Temple the other day,

those Warrior from the West who killed five of my Valley brothers,

who sent them?

If I say I don't know,

would you believe me?

If I say...

This belongs to my family, and I won't give it to you.

Would you believe me?

Don't put the blame on me, we had to be prepared.

I'm not affiliated with her in any way.

Not affiliated?

On the count of three,

if you don't surrender the treasure map,

I'd make some changes to her face.

One.

Two.

Didn't you say you're not affiliated with me?

Don't move if you want to live.

Who is he?

Black Impermanence.

Who?

Black Impermanence.

"Black Impermanence, Executive officer of domestic discipline"

Qi Jun-yuan.

You can tell this Valley peasant

that what I'm here to do.

To enforce the domestic discipline.

I understand very well.

When someone gathers strength,

they just can't help but think about the future.

I'm looking forward to the future.

But this treasure map

is a piece of my past.

"Execute"

You grew up under my watch in the Valley,

and I don't take pleasure in destroying your Master's efforts.

I am going to make an exception for you today.

If you don't return with me to the Valley,

we will fight to the death.

Then...

You stay away.

Black Impermanence,

I will use my Arm of Asura

to face off your Yin Yang Umbrella.

Go and look into the street,

why is it suddenly so quiet?

The people have fled.

Check from the windows for the east and west

to see how many troops have they sent.

Not fewer than 300.

I didn't expect Chai Kang to have such backups.

Since it was Chai Kang who hired me from the Valley,

it shouldn't be him who mobilised the East Siang troops.

Meng and Lady Fleur are also aware of the treasure map,

but they haven't made their wishes known.

I think they are the ones who've sent the troops.

After all, South Ling's iron cavalry is now challenging the Valley,

we can't ever let them besmirch our name.

What do you say?

My lady.

All is ready.

Take them alive.

This is the Ghost Valley.

Black Impermanence is a force to be reckoned with.

"Divine Pavilion"

Please let me stay.

I'll block the way so that you can go.

Go.

I'm telling you to go!

You won't make it if you don't go now.

"I'm still fine, don't worry about me"

My lord.

"Grand Temple"

Commander Zhao,

I've found the mole in East Siang.

It's my brother,

he hired someone from Ghost Valley to assassinate you.

My lord.

No, it can't be.

It must be a misunderstanding.

Duke Rui has always been so kind to me,

he gave me my promotion into the cabinet.

"Wisdom, Trusty"

"Siang"

Commander Zhao,

all the correspondence between ministers in the cabinet

have been collected in here.

After they were copied,

each and every one of them,

I will go through it myself.

It includes the correspondence between my brother and the Valley.

Here are all the letters between my brother and you.

For so many years,

you've written to your wife without fail.

A person who takes good care of his family

is more reliable.

All these years.

I've been playing a game of chess with Meng.

If I make my next move correctly, I'll come out the victor.

Zhao Chuang, you have to make this last move for me,

the most important move as well.

My lord.

Don't worry, I'll send my people to take care of your wife.

What does your lordship want me to do?

Unshackle him.

They came to see me of their own will,

that's why you could capture them.

- Leave us for now. - Yes!

What a handsome pair of assassins the Valley has delivered.

When I look at you,

I see my younger self.

I'm nothing like you,

I've been an orphan since I was young.

Qi Jun-yuan, have you ever thought of it?

Even though the Ghost Valley has a considerable reputation,

assassinations can only change the situation now,

but can't change people's fate.

So you chose to be a Buddhist?

Yes.

Because I made a mistake.

For my future, I sacrifice my own past.

So I pray every day

to ask for guidance to amend.

Did you get any answers?

Yes, I did.

I was enlightened with a phrase.

Revenge.

So I dare not to ask for anything now,

just hoping that my man and my child would be blessed.

Lady Fleur.

Do you know why I came to see you?

It's because you have something to ask me.

Now the treasure map has been returned to me,

I'll hire you to do something for me.

Returned to you?

Of course.

If I didn't arrange for it to be kept by Governor Gu,

how could a man of mediocrity like him get his hands on the map?

What do you want to hire me to do?

When I hire an assassin, it's of course to assassinate.

I used the treasure map as bait

to arrange a meeting with Chai Sheng in the Snow Pavilion,

as to discuss with him ostensibly about how to find the treasures.

When the time comes, I want you to assassinate Chai Sheng.

Why would I do such a thing for you?

Because I can tell you

what you want to know.

What do I want to know?

The truth about the map and the annihiliation of your Qi clan.

I, Chai Sheng of East Siang

will form a brotherly alliance with the Lord of South Ling.

We shall join hands to find the ancient treasures.

If I desire otherwise,

the wrath of the heavens and men will be upon me.

While both heaven and earth will destroy me.

I, Meng Xu of South Ling

will form a brotherly alliance with the Lord Chai Sheng of East Siang.

If I desire otherwise, I will die by sword.

- Whenever I tell you... - When you tell me to leave,

I'll leave.

When I tell you to grab it, you grab.

Today, we are brothers and allies.

I'd like to invite your wife for a song

to celebrate this momentous day.

When the time comes, I'll sing a song.

When the opportunity comes for you to assassinate Chai Sheng,

I'll give you a signal.

"We wouldn't lament we've met too late if the love is true"

"I just hope to see you, with no regrets"

"Love and honour are fading like a tide"

"and more colourful than wilted flowers"

"But I fear loneliness and dashed hopes"

"Love is like a dream, it doesn't matter if it didn't last"

"If our hearts are strong, our love will never fade"

"Parting brings destruction, I yearn for us to meet again"

"The love is in my heart, it won't go away"

"We wouldn't lament we've met too late if the love is true"

"I just hope to see you, with no regrets"

What does your lordship want me to do?

Assassinate Meng Xu.

Commander Zhao.

I'll deliver this chalice to the lord.

I think I've seen you somewhere before.

Your memory deceives you.

We've never met.

Capture the assassin!

Someone is trying to kill his lordship!

Protect the lord!

- Catch the assassin! - Protect his lordship!

Where did these skillful assassins come from?

Help!

My lord, it's dangerous.

Master?

It's the person you brought?

Lord Meng!

Lord Meng!

Don't worry...

It's over now.

It's finally over.

My lord?

Who is it?

Lady Fleur, what instructions do you have for me so late at night?

Don't worry.

There's no one outside.

You shouldn't have come to see me at this time.

If someone sees you, our plan will be ruined.

It's been decades,

I've thought about you everyday.

I know you blame me.

I've promised you not to kill Meng Xu.

But the situation has changed, I had to do it.

Don't worry,

the situation will be resolved very soon.

Before long, we'll be together again.

See?

You're the mastermind.

You asked me to make

that copper map of a treasure which didn't even exist,

so that so many people have plotted around us for all these years.

But...

Whatever the outcome is,

it just doesn't make up for what we've lost.

Do you still miss our daughter?

How can I not miss her?

I know.

To make Meng Xu take you under his wing,

I forced you to abandon her.

The Ghost Valley...

They tried to assassinate you,

but why are they following your orders now?

Do you remember when we've to take refuge separately 13 years ago,

the question you asked me then?

If you can only choose one between me and the realm in future,

how would you choose?

Of course I'd choose you.

I said I'd choose you.

What is your reply?

I said I'm pleased.

You asked why is the Valley following my order,

it's because Lord Chai Sheng

is holding the decree of their real plan.

If I say...

I'm waiting for you here,

would you believe me?

We meet again.

I'm grateful for you accepting my invitation.

If I didn't want you to come here,

why would I lie to your men that

his lordship is holding the decree of the Ghost Valley's real plan?

That's wonderful.

I'd have found you soon anyway.

Commander Zhao.

I want to know that

was it you who hired the Valley to assassinate Meng Xu?

"I've commissioned Ghost Valley..."

What is your link to the Valley?

Your lordship.

Your servant would like to borrow your pen.

Do you know why I was always writing to my wife?

Because I knew very well that you would spy on the letters.

That is why I wrote whatever you wanted to read.

The other day

when you said you'd send men to look after my wife,

I wasn't afraid at all.

Because the wife I wrote to

doesn't even exist.

It must've been hard to pretend as a loyal minister all these years.

Do you know why you're still alive?

It's because I need you to take all the blames for me.

An assassin is here, someone try to kill his lordship!

Assassins!

Someone is trying to kill his lordship!

Master?

Someone wants us to destroy each other,

go meet me at the Red Chamber Theatre.

"Red Chamber Theatre"

Jun-yuan.

Judge.

I said I'd do some good in these turbulent times,

so believe me.

I'm very close to success.

Judge,

I appreciate your contribution over the years to the Valley.

The sacrifice you make today is worthwhile.

I'm old.

It's time for me to go.

In exchange for the efforts

I've made for the Valley for decades...

Golden Mask,

I beg you.

As an assassin, allow me the last...

Dignity.

Judge.

I'd say farewell.

Master!

Master!

Master?

It's Golden Mask.

He has Zhao's prayer beads on him.

It's because I can tell you

the truth about the map and the annihiliation of your Qi clan.

I've been trying to find the truth about the death of the Qi clan.

But at this moment, for revenge and for my own future...

As the Blue Asura of Ghost Valley,

all the more reason for me to solve this plot for the Valley.

Golden Mask.

Master taught us to kill with assassination,

so what kind of weapon do you use?

I didn't use assassination,

but plot.

A plot can change an entire era.

Can the plot be unraveled?

If you want to solve this plot,

you'd have to come up with another plot.

Attention, General Zhao shall receive the Commander's Seal.

Attention, General Zhao enters the palace.

I congratulate your ladyship for becoming the ruler of South Ling.

Wait until I receive the Commander's Seal,

East Siang will be ours too.

I urge your ladyship to come

and witness our dream becoming reality.

"Chai Zhen, Royal heir of East Siang"

My lord...

I've said

that I like

watching you embroider the royal robe,

even though I know

that robe wasn't for me.

Your servant, Zhao Chuang pledge allegiance to the young lord.

Wait.

"Siang"

General Zhao.

South Ling and East Siang have form an alliance,

so I have to remind you on behalf of the two lords.

I hope that even if you receive the Commander's Seal,

you won't forget your pledge to protect the young lord.

I, Zhao Chuang have never broken a promise in my life.

Have you never broken a promise?

Do you dare to swear to Buddha?

I swear to Buddha,

I will always and forever be loyal to the young lord

and protect East Siang.

If I betray this vow,

I'm willing to be punished and be banished to hell everafter.

"Commander's Seal"

Report!

General Zhao, there is a covert invasion from assassins.

- What? - There are assassins here?

- Who dares to do so? - Yeah!

Protect his lordship!

Close the gate!

General,

an unknown enemy has set off all the explosives in our arsenal.

Zhao Chuang staged a mutiny!

Who is shouting?

Zhao Chuang staged a mutiny!

Zhao Chuang staged a mutiny!

It can't be, how can it be?

Zhao Chuang has staged a mutiny?

It must be Qi Jun-yuan.

Deploy my Imperial Army.

Yes, sir!

Zhao Chuang has staged a mutiny...

Zhao Chuang, how dare you bring a sword into the palace!

Protect the young lord.

It's really him!

Protect the royal heir and lead him to safety.

"Siang"

Wait until I receive the Commander's Seal,

I will deploy the troops to destroy the Ghost Valley.

Ask Qi Jun-yuan to come out.

"Siang"

Traitor!

"Commander's Seal"

I knew you'd harm the young lord.

My hand was forced by Qi Jun-yuan.

You've said

you'd choose me between the realm and me.

Now I ask you to leave with me, would you do it?

I can't.

I promised to help you calm the chaos,

but now our plan has lost its meaning.

Because you've changed.

Yes.

But the change in me was made to accommodate the times.

Actually,

we've both changed.

I've lost my past

and see no future for us,

I can't even face myself.

But I can start afresh.

Fleur.

Fleur, is this...

Is this your new beginning?

You've left me all by myself.

I will definitely complete it.

To complete our plan.

The Commander's Seal is here, see?

I'll show you.

You didn't foresee that you'd be trapped as well, right?

Perhaps you have forgot,

it was you who taught me to plot.

Golden Mask.

Actually, I've once wondered

what is the relationship between Golden Mask and Zhao Chuang.

In fact, it's very simple.

You are just the same person.

It must've been hard to pretend as a loyal minister all these years.

If you're Golden Mask,

then Lady Fleur

must be the Valley's Crimson Mask who has been missing for years.

You asked my family, the Qi clans,

to make a copper map for treasures that didn't exist,

as to start a war between South Ling and East Siang.

So amid the chaos, you were able to surrender to Chai Sheng.

While Lady Fleur attached herself to Meng Xu.

You arranged for the Valley brothers to assassinate yourself,

So that you can stage a scene of a loyal minister being assassinated

to win Chai Sheng's trust.

You knew very well that I wouldn't give up avenging my clan,

so you put the blame of taking the map and treachery on me.

Then the entire Valley

would focus on me, the traitor.

After that, you used the map as bait

to lure both the leaders of South Ling and East Siang to meet

and assassinated them at the meeting.

Once you received the Commander's Seal,

you will lead the East Siang army to destroy the Ghost Valley.

In that way,

you could cover up your treachery from the overlord of the Valley

and advance your position into the overlord of the entire realm.

Golden Mask.

Now I ask on behalf of my brothers in the Valley,

how can you face us?

Times have changed,

I can't say that I didn't try to change the world through the Valley.

You can't change anything

because you've changed.

I'm Qi Jun-yuan with a mask on.

Qi Jun-yuan with my mask off.

Today I don't care whether you're Zhao Chuang or Golden Mask,

I will avenge my master and the whole Valley.

Blue Asura, it's time to enforce the domestic discipline.

The one to enforce the domestic discipline now

is me.

Your Arm of Asura,

it's time for me to take it back.

I didn't use assassination,

but plot.

A plot can change an entire era.

"Grand Temple"

I've promised myself that

I'll leave the Valley as soon as I've made the revenge for my family

and go find my own future.

At this moment, I recall that very snowy day

and what Sheng-sheng had said.

When will this blizzard end?

I don't understand why you still have to take me to the Valley.

I've made my plans

about where shall we go after we've left,

and you'd like it.

Golden Mask and Crimson Mask told us here that

the Ghost Valley will make the world a place without hatred one day.

They are all lies.

That's why they never took off their masks.

Let's go.

Sheng-sheng.

I remember my master had said.

For Golden Mask's undertaking,

Crimson Mask gave away their child.

Sheng-sheng, I have to tell you

that I made up that rumour myself.

I've always been thinking

why did we meet at the Dragon Temple?

And so do your fortune stick.

Drifting along the stream,

finally a hero yearns for one night's drink into oblivion.

Why was the fortune so accurate?

I went to search for it at the Temple.

Did you find it?

How could I it if it didn't even exist?

Also, when you pretended to be Lady Fleur,

how did you know their child is a girl?

So I dare not to ask for anything now,

just hoping that my man and my child would be blessed.

Do you still miss our daughter?

I deduced that you are the daughter of Golden Mask and Crimson Mask.

You followed me

because you wanted to see how they've turned out.

That's right.

I've always known that they are

Zhao Chuang and Lady Fleur.

That why I saved you with the music outside Dragon Temple,

so that you'd continue to help me.

And that's also why I reminded you

to think about the relationship between Zhao Chuang and Golden Mask.

Ghost Valley...

They tried to assassinate you,

but why are they following your orders now?

I think...

You must have guessed

that I let Chai Kang capture me on purpose to return to you.

Of course I knew.

I also knew that you were captured by South Ling on purpose.

It didn't occur to me that apart from Golden Mask and Crimson Mask,

I'd have to face a trap set by you.

Sheng-sheng.

Is this the ending you envisioned?

Sheng-sheng.

All plots have a cost.

Would you like to see me in future?

I'm sure that...

I'll think of you everytime I have rice balls.

Can't we start afresh?

I have to stay and rebuild Ghost Valley.

The principle of the Valley

is to make the world turn away from the sorrows of parting and hatred

to be without malice.

The Valley's belief is magnificent.

As long as the Valley exists, there's hope for this world.

If you stay in the Valley,

wouldn't you just become another Golden Mask?

As long as I hold fast to my beliefs and have intention remain unchanged

to destroy any enemies as well as unravel any plots...

I am Qi Jun-yuan when I take off my mask

while the same Qi Jun-yuan when I put my mask on as well.
