ADAPTED FROM
QING LINGYUE'S NOVEL OF THE SAME NAME

Are you all right?

Were you out of your mind?

Why didn't you let go?

I don't want you to…

I would rather

die by your side.

You're such a fool.

What is it?

Someone is here.

Father!

Master!

How did you end up here?

Father.

-Father.
-Fengxi learned from the Fountain Abode

that you were heading here to Mount Wu.

So she took us here to search for you.

I was so worried

when you suddenly disappeared.

Why are you here, Master?

Those who failed the trial would come here

by all sorts of means.

I supposed Old Taiyin was not willing
to reveal the details of the trials.

That's why he trapped us here temporarily.

Fortunately, there's plenty
of food and water

in this valley.

We can only wait

for someone to pass the trial

and save us from this place.

I see.

Fengxi hasn't lost yet,
so we still have hope.

I'll let you settle down first.

I want you to tell me
what happened these days.

Let's go.

YONGZHOU

Mother wants to use me
to tie Lanxi down this time.

I can't let Lanxi get distracted
because of me.

Your Highness,

please stop drinking.

Are you trying to control me too?

No one here treats me as the prince.

Your Highness,

drowning your sorrows with wine

will only make you feel worse,
Your Highness.

My father despises me.

My mother uses me.

Even my brother whom I cared for the most

lied to me.

Your Highness. You can't…

Your Highness.

Greetings,

Prince Yongping.

What are you doing here?

I already know about today.

If you're not willing to marry Qi Cheng,

I have a plan to persuade Father

to decline this betrothal.

You? Helping me?

You can say what you want.

You're the same as Mother

who only used me as a pawn in your strife.

Can't you see how Mother feels?

You're doing this

only to win over her.

Is that what you think of me?

What do I think of you?

What else do you expect?

No matter how I tried,

I can't see through you.

Your Highness!

You have great martial arts skills.

You do.

But your skills in scheming
are higher than your martial arts.

Feng Chang, there are some things
I still can't explain to you yet.

But I've never plotted against you.

Do you think I'd still believe you

if you said all these?

You don't have to interfere
with Ms. Qi Cheng anymore.

Leave.

Feng Chang has to marry
someone he doesn't love

because of me.

I'm sure he hates me.

The more cluttered my thoughts are,

the more I think of her.

How is she doing in Mount Wu?

This path is indeed

accompanied by loneliness.

MOUNT WU

Old Taiyin really likes
giving hard questions to people.

We got out of the maple grove.
Now we have to cross this cliff.

He wants to stop us?

I won't let him get what he wants.

Why don't we compete

and see who reaches the other side first?

I don't see why not.

OLD TAIYIN

I'm sorry
to have implicated Your Highness.

Get up.

I came here with Wuyuan.

I'm glad you're all right.

We'll go down the mountain path.

I wonder

how she is doing now.

Your Highness, we have news
from Chuanyu and the rest.

One horse costs ten silver leaves.

To stop me from getting fine horses,

Wang Minghai would spend this much.

The price to purchase a horse in the north
was three silver leaves for a horse.

The horse's price in the eastern frontier
has increased so much.

If we buy at this price

based on His Lordship's request,

we'll lose a lot of money.

It's almost all the money

House of Jade and Fountain Abode
have made in recent years.

Even if I'm willing to spend
that money on horses,

it won't work either.

Father will be suspicious

of the money's origin.

When that time comes,

we'll be exposed.

Then…

What should we do then?

I'll write a letter
for Chuanyun and the rest.

Yes, Your Highness.

NOODLES

Ten silver leaves for one horse?

That's equivalent to robbing.

No, it's not.

They're just pushing us off the cliff,

so we can't buy horses.

They only spent
several thousand silver leaves

buying hundreds of horses
to increase the horses' price.

But we need more than 10,000 horses.

Let's see what His Highness says.

NOODLES

Excuse me. Are you here to buy horses?

Yes.

But we can't afford
to pay for ten silver leaves.

Well, it's ten silver leaves

because some people manipulated the price.

People usually buy dozens of horses.

But I'm different.

I have 1,000 fine horses in my stable.

They can't afford to buy them all.

How much are you planning to sell them?

They may have pushed it up
to ten silver leaves.

But if you want to buy it
at the old price,

it would be impossible anymore.

My horses cost five silver leaves for one.

Five silver leaves?

Chuanyun.

It's still expensive.

My horses are worth the price.

Why don't I show them to you?

Chuanyun.

Come and take a look!

This way, please.

We're here.

Sirs, please examine as you like.

These are fine horses.

The horses are indeed fine.

But the price…

I can't lower the price anymore.

We'll take them all
if it's four silver leaves for one.

You have so many horses.

I'm sure
the stable's daily expenses are high too.

The earlier you sell them out,
the faster you lower your expenses.

Well…

Since you have so many fine horses,
you must have your way of getting them.

We want more horses. How about this?

From now on, I'll buy your horses

at four silver leaves each.

What do you think?

Are you going to buy as many as I have?

Of course.

We're only afraid
you don't have enough horses.

All right.

Four silver leaves it is.

I'll get the silver leaves for you now.

Wait here.

All right.

Sir.

You did well.

Here's your reward.

Thank you, sir.

Sir, these horses are indeed fine.

Don't you think
four silver leaves are too cheap?

It's not your place
to meddle in this matter.

-You can leave now.
-All right. I'll take my leave.

Which way should we take now?

What's the meaning of this horse?

Ms. Feng,
have you read any books related to Yishu?

The Heaven trigram symbolizes strength.
A strong person rides a horse.

So the Heaven Trigram shows the right way.

You're well-learned.

It's in the northwest.

And this way is to the northwest.

Let's go.

Prince Huang?

Master, Prince Huang Chao is here.

Prince Huang Chao?

Prince Huang?

Your Highness,

Chuanyu said

they had bought 1,000 horses
at 4 silver leaves for each.

People from House of Jade
are bringing the horses back.

They're expected to arrive tomorrow.

How did

the purchase of horses go?

The traders had bought 1,000 horses.

Today,

they've already arrived in the capital.

I've ordered the men to have
the Ministry of War examine them

to see if the horses meet
the criteria as military horses.

If the horses meet
the Ministry of War's requirements,

I can assure you

that I can hand over
all the military horses to you

within three days.

Well done.

Report!

Your Lordship, Vice Minister of War,
Official Wang, requests an audience.

Summon him.

Yes, Your Lordship.

Your humble servant greets Your Lordship.

Long live Your Lordship.

Drop the formalities.

What brings you here?

Your Lordship,
smuggling of military horses

leads to the shortage of military horses.

It may not be my doing.

But I can't escape from being at fault.

For Your Lordship and Yongzhou,

I've been investigating this matter.

I've found several clues these days.

I've found

the whereabouts
of those 1,000 military horses.

Does that mean

I'll have

2,000 military horses today?

Your Lordship,

the smuggled 1,000 military horses

that I've investigated

were purchased by Prince Yongping.

Prince Yongping,

what's going on here?

The horses I bought
came from traders in the eastern frontier.

They're not military horses.

When military horses are registered,

they're nailed with special horseshoes.

Even if they were replaced,

there would be marks on their hooves.

It won't be hard

to clarify.

I think you're trying to slander me

because I took over your task.

If you insist that what you purchased
isn't military horses,

we can all head to the Ministry of War

to examine them.

In that case,

we'll head to the Ministry of War then.

I've wanted to see
my military horses anyway.

-Greetings, Your Lordship.
-Official Yuan,

have you examined the horses

that Prince Yongping purchased?

Your Lordship,
we've examined all the horses

that Prince Yongping had purchased.

They all fit the criteria
of military horses.

-But…
-But there are traces

of military horseshoes
on the hooves, right?

Military horseshoes on the hooves?

Why would Your Lordship ask this?

Official Yuan,

have you examined them closely?

I've examined these horses one by one.

If you don't believe me,
you can examine them yourself.

Go on.

Official Yuan,

what made you hesitate to speak just now?

Prince Yongping's horses are better
than the horses from the north.

I'm afraid it will be hard
to divide them evenly.

It's difficult for me.

So that's what you meant.

Chuanyun, didn't you see the horse mark?

That was obviously the mark
of military horses.

These horses must be
the smuggled military horses.

But why did you promise to buy them?

His Highness wanted me to buy them.

His Highness?

His Highness knew they'd do this.

Do you think

their plot can set up His Highness?

They already knew

that we wanted to purchase 1,000 horses.

If we failed to deliver the horses
back to the capital,

wouldn't they say His Highness
is keeping them for his use?

Calm down.

The person sending the horses is here.

Are you Mr. Fengxi's men?

-Yes.
-Yes.

I'm Ma Mengqi.

Chief Ma, you came in person.

Thanks to those from Fountain Abode,

the Ma family was protected
when Soultaker Sect attacked us.

Now,

Mr. Fengxi needs a favor.

Of course I have to come in person.

Most horse vendors in the eastern frontier
are close to my family.

I've already made the arrangements
for Mr. Fengxi.

He can pick up the horses anytime.

Now that you have examined them,

the horses have no problems.

That means

you've slandered me.

Wait…

I only did that to investigate
the military horses.

I suppose

I made a mistake in my investigation.

Please punish me, Your Lordship.

I don't think you only made
a mistake in your investigation.

The truth is before your eyes.

There wasn't any smuggling
of military horses.

But you

embezzled the money for military horses,

leading to insufficient military horses.

You even tried to cover it up,
pin it on someone else,

and kill the innocent!

No, Prince Yongping.

That's a slander.

Prince Yongping…

I've already investigated this matter.

Please take a look, Father.

MEMORIAL

VICE MINISTER WANG OF WAR
SMUGGLED HORSES FOR PERSONAL GAIN.

Your… Your Lordship…

Guards.

Your Lordship.

Take Wang Minghai to the dungeon.

-Yes, Your Lordship.
-Your Lordship.

Your Lordship!

Since these horses
fit the criteria of the military horses,

don't forget what you've promised me,
Prince Yongping.

I won't let Father down.

There is no indication
of the location in this place.

Why don't we split up?

After we find the right way,
we'll return to notify each other.

That will work.

-Hurry!
-Hurry!

-Run!
-Hurry!

Run now!

Hurry!

Watch out! Over here!

Careful!

-Master.
-Father.

Are you all right?

-I'm fine.
-It's not safe to stay here anymore.

Follow me!

-Let's go!
-Come on!

Go!

-Move!
-Hurry!

Wang Minghai has been captured?

Yes. His Lordship gave the order
at the Ministry of War today.

He's now locked up in the dungeon.

Minister Wang has also entered the palace.

I think he went to meet Her Ladyship.

Do we have anyone
we can use in the dungeon?

Yes.

Kill Wang Minghai.

But Wang Minghai
is Minister Wang's younger brother.

Besides, Her Ladyship
hasn't decided what to do yet.

I've said this before.

You work for me.

So you only listen to my orders.

Have you forgotten about that?

I wouldn't dare. I'll do as you say.

YONGZHOU ARMY BASE

Report, Marquis Xun'an.
Someone wants to see you.

But he comes
with Prince Yongping's official tablet.

-Let him in.
-Yes.

Ren Chuanyu greets Marquis Xun'an.

What brings you here?

I came here under the order
of Prince Yongping

to return your horses.

Return my horses?

I don't understand what you're saying.

I was in the eastern frontier
to purchase horses

and accidentally found out
someone was selling military horses.

Do you know the crime is heavier
to smuggle military horses

during the war?

Are you trying to frame me?

I wouldn't dare.

But military horses are registered

like soldiers.

We'll know who smuggled
the horses after the investigation.

The horses were in the eastern frontier.

If His Lordship finds out,

I think he'll first investigate this camp.

But Prince Yongping has said

that you're his uncle.

He won't make it difficult for you.

If these horses aren't yours,

take them as a gift from Prince Yongping.

We indeed lack military horses.

If Prince Yongping is willing
to give me 1,000 military horses,

I'd naturally accept them.

His Highness has another message for you.

He said he missed eating

the dumplings his uncle made for him.

He'd like to have some
if there's a chance.

Tell Lanxi.

He can come and see me anytime
if he wants some dumplings.

Thank you, Marquis Xun'an.

I'll definitely convey
your message to him.

Lanxi is a better strategist.

The moment I accepted his favor,

the winner of this game
had already been decided.

Come! Hurry up!

Thank you, Prince Huang.

If you weren't here,

I think a lot of us

would have died in there.

Master Bai, you're too kind.

I'm sure the earthquake is unexpected.

But we can only depend on ourselves

now that we're trapped here.

I'm worried about the aftershock.

There is an open space ahead.

-Let's head that way first.
-All right.

Master,

Yu Wuyuan destroyed
the mechanism hub in the mountain

which caused an earthquake.

Go and check.

Repair the formation

and lure Yu Wuyuan

to Yangui Array.

What did you say?

We heard the news from the dungeon

that Second Master had committed suicide.

One can

sum up Minghai with one word
which is "greed."

Someone greedy is afraid to die.

Why would he commit suicide
in the dungeon?

Are you saying

Second Master was murdered?

-I'll investigate this right away.
-There's no need.

No one

would have done this

if not for that person in the palace.

Do you mean Her Ladyship?

But didn't she say
she would find a solution

to save Second Master

when you met her today?

Her words

can't be trusted at all.

After staying in the palace
for many years,

she's the best at being a hypocrite.

Compared with Minghai,

she cares more

about her son.

She's worried we'll betray her son

to save Minghai.

So…

I'll never forget

about this.

Your Ladyship,

we heard the news from the dungeon

that Wang Minghai had killed himself.

Killed himself?

Did you hear anything
from Prince Ju's side?

From Li Jiaxian's words,

I don't think Prince Ju did it.

It wasn't Ju'er?

Then who did it?

One more thing,
there's a message from the relay station.

They saw a caravan
from the eastern frontier

transporting horses
to the capital of Yongzhou.

It should be the military horses
Prince Yongping prepared for His Lordship.

If Prince Yongping succeeds in this task,

he will move closer to becoming
the heir of Lord of Yongzhou.

Get some men

to rob the horses.

I'll do it right away.

Ren Chuanyu has sent his words.

This is the intelligence

gathered by Fountain Abode.

Didn't I say that there's no need
to deliver news from Mount Wu?

The news from Mount Wu this time
isn't related to Ms. Feng.

There was a sudden earthquake
near Mount Wu.

The villages around it were destroyed.

There were also landslides in Mount Wu.

What about those in Mount Wu?

No one was seen leaving Mount Wu
at the moment.

It was a violent earthquake.

I fear

those people were buried in Mount Wu.

-Your Highness.
-Your Highness.

Your Highness,
Chuanyu delivered a message.

He said the first batch of horses
could be transported today.

But these days,

messages from Fountain Abode stated that

several horse bandits suddenly gathered.

They're likely to target our caravan.

All right.

Make no mistake about the military horses.

I'll take care of this matter personally.

Gather those from Fountain Abode

and prepare to reinforce
Chuanyu and the rest.

I'll go along with them.

Yes, Your Highness.

Your Highness?

Count the horses

and transport them
to the Ministry of War right away.

Yes, Your Highness.

I have other matters to take care of.

Return to the capital for now.

If anyone asks you of me,

tell them I went to the eastern frontier

to transport the rest of the horses.

The rest?

Your Highness,
isn't the eastern frontier the other way?

A gyrfalcon?

Hold on to me!

How could this be?

No one in the valley was hurt.

Yu Wuyuan has been lured
to the Yangui Array.

All right.

Master,

Yangui Array is a dead end.

Why did you send Yu Wuyuan there?

He wanted to trap Bai Fengxi in the cave

because of the Sacred Jade Moon.

He has

such a ruthless heart.

That was close.

Luckily, I found you in time
after gyrfalcon found you.

Otherwise, I couldn't find you
after the mountain collapsed.

Why did you come to Mount Wu
all of a sudden?

If I didn't come,

you would end up
at the bottom of the mountain.

But with your skills,

how did you end up in the valley?

I was with Mr. Yu

when we came across the cave maze
set up by Old Taiyin.

I didn't expect there'd be an earthquake.

So you were with Yu Wuyuan

for the past several days.

Yes.

We were traveling together.

Mount Wu is shrouded in mist.

It's naturally better to have company.

Since I'm here,

I'll take care of you.

Get some proper rest.

Tomorrow, I'd like to see

how great Old Taiyin is.

Try my cooking.

Why are you so careless?

Let me do it.

Black Fox,

it's a pity if you don't open a restaurant
with this cooking skill.

Not everyone

is as fortunate as you.

Why aren't you eating?

I'm not hungry.

I picked this myself.

I picked it myself.

This is the only one
in this deep mountain.

-Just keep it for yourself.
-I want you to try it.

It's good.

There's a cave ahead.

I think it's the path in front of us.

This is the Liuyao Array
of the Prince of Lanling.

If we want to break the formation,

we must find the hinge.

We must be careful.

I'll deal with this formation.

Watch out!

Master,

Bai Fengxi and a man
have entered Liuyao Array.

That man

should be Hei Fengxi.

I wonder if those two

can figure out my true meaning.

Every stone brick on the ground

has hidden mechanisms.

We can't force our way in.
We need to use our wit.

To break the formation,

we must understand

the connections

between these stone bricks and the statue.

WISDOM

RIGHTEOUSNESS

BENEVOLENCE, LOYALTY, FILIAL PIETY

The words on the ground

are the eight virtues.

I remember seeing these seven Lord statues

in Dadong Eight Pagoda a long time ago.

There's a poem for every Lord.

Lord Huangwu.

Faith.

Words agree with the meanings.

Lady Fengsu.

A skillful man works hard.

A wise man worries.

WISDOM

FAITH

Then Lord Huangwu represents faith.

Lady Fengsu represents wisdom.

As for the rest of the words,

we should be able to break the formation

as long as we find the statues

and drive the right words
into the slot of the lotus seat

under the statues.

Let's give it a try.

Lord Shangrui.

Manners make the man.

ETIQUETTE

Lord Beiwen.

With sincere loyalty,

a mighty spirit fills the world.

Lord Huakang.

Find answers to all.

Value righteousness over gold.

Lord Fengzhao.

Filial piety is a priority.

Emperor of Dadong.

Benevolent people are people-centered.

Old Taiyin really cares

about the world.

He hopes everyone in the world

can follow

these eight virtues.

Black Fox,

I think we did it.

Old Taiyin hopes that
everyone lives peacefully

and is benevolent and filial.

Who's there?

Are you Old Taiyin?

Yes.

I'm the disciple
of the Tianshuang Sect, Bai Fengxi.

My master is stranded on Mount Wu.

So I had no choice but to come here.

I hope Old Taiyin can forgive me.

What about you,

the man in black?

I'm Hei Fengxi of the Fountain Abode.

Greetings, Old Taiyin.

Hei-Bai Fengxi,

you're indeed extraordinary

for breaking the Liuyao Array.

I'll remember you two.

But

if you want to obtain
the Sacred Jade Moon,

you're still far from it.

Old Taiyin,

can you tell me where my Master is?

Is he safe?

He's safe for now.

But if you want to save them,

you have to master the Sacred Jade Moon.

Anyone who has received my invitation

and has entered Mount Wu

must undergo my tests.

Next,

it will be up to your fate.

Let's go.

With the two of us working together,

it will be a stroll

even if it's the 18th level of hell.

I also want to see

what Old Taiyin looks like.
