People here believe in the Sun Moon Holy Cult.
The cult's current leader
Ren Woxing is a martial arts master
with a cruel nature
and a highly volatile personality.
He slaughters his followers
as if they were
cattle and sheep.
So the cult members turns to the deputy head
Invincible East,
who has fought against Ren Woxing many times.
Six month ago, there were several people
who claimed to be Invincible East
appearing in succession
on the Black Woods Cliff, where the cult is based.
They tried to k*ll
Ren Woxing, the tyrannical leader of
the Sun Moon Holy Cult.
But their rebellition was brutally suppressed
one after another.
Who is it?
Invincible East.
Another Invincible East.
The sun rises in the east,
and only I am undefeated.
You do have some skills.
Fine.
I'm about to master the Cosmic Absorbing Power.
Your inner energy
coull be use of mine.
You're no match for me.
That's impossible.
How could you know the skills in the Sunflower Manual?
I'll show you
the real Sunflower Manual.
The sun rises in the east,
Welcome our leader.
and only I am undefeated!
The sun rises in the east,
and only I am undefeated!
We Sun Moon Holy Cult
shall conquer Jianghu.
Bro,
that's a nice pot of wine you got here.
Fine wine with roast chicken.
You're quite a gourmet.
Sir, are you a wine lover?
I stopped to
hear you playing
Laughing Proudly in Jianghu.
The music is composed by Qu Yang and Liu Zhengfeng.
After the two people
were forced to commit suicide
by those so-called decent people,
their music was almost lost.
So you know about
their story?
If I had got the message earlier,
I wouldn't let them die so miserably.
So hearing their musical piece again
truly overwhelmed me today.
It seems that you are a senior of Wulin.
And you are here on the Cliff of
Contemplation of Huashan Mountain.
My name is Linghu Chong.
May I ask about
your relationship with the Huashan Sect?
I'm your martial great uncle,
Feng Qingyang from the Sword Faction.
Grandmaster, please accept my respects.
No need to be so formal.
Just share your wine with me.
I would be pleased.
Please enjoy.
Although it's not the best wine,
it's good enough for me
as I'm so tempted bt its smell.
So, you were punished to stay here?
Since I was a kid,
every time when I wanted to drink
and think quietly about things,
I would come here.
Someone is coming.
They are not from the Huashan Sect.
This way.
Get them.
It's Ren Yingying and Blue Phoenix.
Their skills show that
they are from the evil Sun Moon Holy Cult.
Miss Ren is different
from her father.
Grandmaster, trust me.
So she is the daughter of
the big devil Ren Woxing.
You puppy.
Your master doesn't know that, right?
Befriend with people from the demonic cult.
You'll get yourself into troubles.
No time to think that much.
Save them first.
Well then, Grandmaster,
goodbye!
i didn't expect there would be
such a junior in the Huashan Sect.
I will come to help you
after I finish enjoying your wine.
You wicked woman!
How dare you to come to Huashan?
You are asking for it!
Zuo Lengchan.
We are no enemies.
Why are you pushing me so hard?
Linghu Chong.
Finally found you.
You are here for me?
Of course.
If it wasn't for you,
how could we be stumped by these people?
Linghu Chong!
What are you doing?
If you protect this evil woman,
you will be the enemy of all decent people in Wulin.
Yingying.
I can handle them.
You two leave quickly.
Okay.
I'll come for you again.
Let's go.
Freezing Breath.
The heavens are helping me!
Linghu Chong.
I was thinking about
finding faults with the Huashan Sect.
Now I get the chance.
I'll take you to Yue Buqun for a reasonable explanation.
It's crowded.
Don't push me.
Get away.
Who is it?
Shut up.
What?
Stunned by my beauty?
Go away!
Elder sisters.
Younger sisters.
Younger brothers.
I told you
to show others
the spirit of our Huashan Sect.
Be friendly and polite.
Like me.
You stinky potatoes.
Rotten eggs.
How dare you
to say my senior apprentice brother's name?
Yeah.
How dare you!
i'm gonna tell my father.
See how he will punish you.
Be quiet!
Wait.
Wait.
Chong.
Have you realized your mistake?
No, I haven't.
Linghu Chon.
Tell everyone
how you g*ng together with
the evil sect woman.
Chong.
They said that wicked woman
gave you a martial arts manual.
If you hand in
te evil book of the demonic cult,
I will forgive you
for breaking up with them.
Otherwise,
the Huashan Sect can no longer have you here.
Shifu.
I made acquaintance with Miss Ren
because of music.
We're just friends.
I don't understand
how we're risking universal comdemnation.
Just a music score?
Nonsense!
Over the years, te demonic cult
has been making all-out efforts
to persecute the decent people
of the Five Mountains Sword School Alliance.
How can you befriend with
people of the evil sect?
Now answer my question:
If you see any members
of the demonic cult in the future,
for example, Ren Yingying,
will you k*ll them all without mercy?
Shifu, I think one should
live a life as he wishes.
If one can neither
drink with his friends,
nor play music with them,
and even harm his friends,
then it will be worse than death.
Master Yue.
Your apprentice has been
deeply bewitched by the demonic cult.
You can't have him anymore.
Yeah.
Are you deaf?
My senior brother has
explained himself clearly enough.
That wicked woman gave him a music score.
Not a martial arts manual.
What else do you want?
Never look down upon the bonds
between us.
Don't you dare to harm my senior brother.
Protect Huashan Sect.
Protect senior brother.
What a srong sword power.
Here I am.
Uncle Feng.
Huashan hasn't seen
such a scene for years.
I thought I would see
the revitalization of Huashan Sect.
But instead, it was a bunch of shameless old people
bullying the younger generation of the Huashan Sect.
Senior Feng, you've been in seclusion for years,
detached from the affairs of the martial world.
Now that you unprecedentedly broke in our meeting
could it be that you have some connection
to Linghu Chong?
I don't know him.
I'm just curious about
what kind of stubborn young man he is
to have such
rebellious thoughts.
Linghu Chong has colluded with the demonic cult.
Senior Feng,
are you gonna break the rules of Jianghu
and bend the law for him?
I'm no longer a member of the martial world,
nor do I wish to be involved in
these filthy matters.
Yue Buqun,
you may handle this
according to the rules of Jianghu.
As your commandter, Grandmaster.
Chong,
I could see your past mischief
of childish behaviors.
But now you've committed a serious offense.
As the head of Huashan Sect,
I must give Wulin
an explanation today.
I hope you understand
my difficult position.
Father,
please spare senior brother.
Shifu, please forgive senior brother!
I, Linghu Chong
take full responsibility for my actions.
Please, do not trouble Shifu.
Everyone,
I will give up all my martial art skills
and sever all ties with Huashan Sect's Qi Faction.
Please do not make things difficult for Huachan.
Senior Brother. Senior Brother.
Senior Brother.
Senior Brother.
Senior Brother.
Are you an idiot?
If I were you,
I'd cr*pple these people's martial arts,
especially that of the nasty elderly.
From today on,
Linghu Chong is no longer an apprentice of our sect.
His life or death, right or wrong,
will have nothing to do with Huashan.
On my command.
Expel this disgraced person
from Huashan.
Master Yue,
leave the matter of expelling this useless person
to me.
Senior Feng, what...
Senior Feng,
What do you mean?
You are a master of martial arts.
How could you go back on your word,
breaking the rules of Wulin?
This young man has crippled all his martial arts
and been expelled from his sect.
He's no longer member of
the Five Mountains Schools Alliance.
What does my saving him
have to do with you?
This goes against the rules!
Rules are made by the strongest.
Do you think
you can beat me?
This young man has only
trained in inner strength for ten years.
Giving up it all is no big deal.
I'll give you twenty years of inner strength.
Grandmaster, thank you
for rebuilding the passages in my body.
Chong.
Let's go.
Just looking at these shameless people
makes me sick.
Let's go.
Yue Buqun.
He's my apprentice now.
Same generation as yours.
Next time you see Linghu Chong,
you must address him as senior brother.
Understand?
Congratulations to Master Yue,
for having a new senior brother!
You are my
last substitute, aren't you?
Yes, Master.
Jingzhe (Awakening of Insects).
The sixth day of the month,
The day of my final battle
with Ren Woxing.
It's quite fitting.
I'm willing to go in your stead, Master.
Are you truly willing to die for me?
To die for Master
is an honor for a shadow.
But I've changed my mind.
I will go by myself.
Don't be afraid.
It's not your fault.
I've always known that
I must face it myself.
It's meaningless
to escape from it forever.
To master this skill,
one must first self-castrate.
I did that,
yet I have never been able to reach
Level-9.
I have had twelve substitutes,
eleven of whom, like me,
were all men.
But they could only reach
the fourth of fifth level.
Now
I seem to understand a little bit
Perhaps
it's the pure Yin body of a woman
that is the true answer.
You are my
only fermale substitute, aren't you?
Come here.
Look
this is my dream.
A vast Jianghu world.
Don't you want to step out of the Black Woods
and see the world outside?
You have no name,
no past,
and no future to speak of.
But I
will give you a chance.
If I die in battle today,
you shall live in my place
and become the true
Invincible East.
Who am I?
Am I Invincible East?
Grandmaster.
Sometimes stillness is the wisest move.
The mastery of martial arts resembles a game of chess.
Can you wield uour sword
as a gauge and discern rght from wrong?
Sword-nourising Stance reveals the essence.
Sword-separating Stance evokes longing.
Sword-swinging Stance means no regrets.
Sword-evading Stance hides weaknesses.
Sword-wandering Stance swings freely.
Sword-falling Stance commands mountaina and rivers.
Sword-disordering Stance shines like starlight.
Sword-defeating Stance dominates with force.
Not bad.
And the last stance,
watch carefully,
Sword-vanishing Stance reveals loneliness.
Stop over thinking it.
Let's have a drink.
I'm too stupid
to grasp the 9th stance.
Sorry to have let you down, Grandmaster.
You've managed to learn
the first 8 stances of
the Nine Swords of Dugu.
That's quite impressive.
I have to admit,
your talent for swordsmanship
is even greater than mine was back then.
That's because Grandmaster taught me so well.
Do you know
why the 9th stance is called loneliness?
No, Grandmaster.
Loneliness is not the same as solitude.
Then what is loneliness?
Everyone in life
makes choices
that no one else can understand.
Does everyone
have their own loneliness?
It's the same with the Dao,
and with swordsmanship too.
One day, you'll have
your own 9th stance.
Now,
drink.
Come on.
Grandmaster.
Come, that's right.
Goose leg.
Big bites of meat, big gulps of wine.
Live freely in Jianghu!
This is strange.
I've never seen
these poisonous insects on the Cliff of Contemplation.
It's her.
Holy Maiden.
I've already sent a signal
to Linghu.
He'll be here to meet us soon.
Holy Maiden,
why is the bridge broken?
Looks like these iron chains were just broken.
It seems he doen't want to see us .
Linghu Chong,
I've even brought
your favorite Kaoliang liquor for you.
If you don't come out,
I'm going to pour it out.
I'm really going to pour it out.
I'm pouring it right now.
Blue Phoenix,
you really did pour it all out.
Holy Maiden,
it seems this drunkard really
doesn't want to see us.
What should we do?
When two have mutual feelings for each other,
everything happens naturally.
I'll wait here for him.
Even though Guangling San is an extraordinary piece,
it can't compare to this tune,
Laughing Proudly in Jianghu.
Indeed, only someone
as upright and honest as Linghu
is worthy of this musical score.
Will we meet again?
Having met through this song,
we are now friends.
If you ever come looking for me,
you'll find me by following the music.
Do you know
why I've trapped myself here
at the Cliff of Contemplation?
It's because of
Grangmaster's 9th sword stance.
Do you really want to be trapped
on this cliff like me
for the rest of your life?
Yes,I do.
I'm willing to serve at Grandmaster's side.
I don't believe in such nonsense.
The moment the music started,
your mind had already crossed the bridge.
I couldn't stop you.
When I was your age,
I was the same as you.
Cutting that bridge
won't help.
Go.
When you truly grasp the 9th sword stance,
you'll understand
what is it you really want.
Linghu.
Take this.
Miss Ren,
this is a forbidden area of Huashan.
You shouldn't risk coming here.
If there were another way,
I wouldn't have come here to trouble you.
What's going on?
The Holy Maiden feels guilty
because you were expelled from your sect
over the music score.
Since she can't bring herself to explain,
I'll speak on her behalf.
Invincible East has taken over
the Sun Moon Holy Cult.
He sent invitation to the entire Wulin,
asking everyone to come to the Black Woods Cliff
to recognize him as the supreme leader of Wulin.
Welcome our leader.
Welcome our leader.
Are you keeping me alive
just to torment me?
From the moment I was born,
I've been risking my life for someone else.
Death, to me,
is a relief,
and a fitting end.
Well, well.
I'll make sure you
regret this day.
I will soon replace you
as the leader of the holy cult.
And as a courtesy,
you should also experience
my life.
Do you really think that wearing these clothes
makes you the real Invincible East?
You're nothing more than
a cheap impostor.
How dare you
to be disrespectful to our Leader
even at the death's door?
You'd better stay alive
and watch
what I become.
I'm about to
wipe out the Five Mountains Sword Schools Alliance
and become the supreme leader of Wulin.
Whether it's Invincible East
or Ren Woxing,
what you desired,
what you could
and couldn't accomplish,
I will achieve them all
from now on.
Invincible East's actions
will surely bring chaos and bloodshed
to the Central Plains of Wulin.
That's why I came to you.
Please help me rescue my father,
defeat Invincible East,
and prevent the disaster of Wulin.
But I've made up my mind that
I would no longer involve myself in Wulin affairs.
Linghu, don't you know that
a few days ago,
the Five Mountains Sword Schools Alliance
to besiege the Sun Moon Holy Cult.
They were soundly defeated by
Invincible East in the first battle.
You Shifu
and junior apprentice sister were there too.
How are they now?
If you want to know if they're alive or dead,
why don't you go to the Black Woods Cliff
and see for yourself?
I was forced
up the mountain,
and now I'm being forced down.
I just wanna
live as I want.
Is it so difficult?
Linghu Chong,
what are you struggling with?
Tell me,
why do we wield swords?
Grandmaster,
he sword in our hands
can right all the wrongs.
Exactly.
This sword was my weapon when I was young,
and it is called the "Measure Sword".
For me,
this sword has no guilt for the world,
but is only guilty for one woman.
I give it to you now.
May you measure your own path.
No one knows where the journey will end.
The moment of comtemplation always comes too late.
Friends were gone. Tell your stories to the wind.
In dream, it will reveal them to the spirits of mountains.
Linghu Chong.
Go down the mountain.
Form the array!
I most enjoy drinking the blood of
young ladies like you,
especially from the tender skin
of your neck.
Now, Miss Sue, I beg you
to let me have a sip!
Stop being disrespectful to my junior apprentice sister!
Who's that?
Be respectful to your Grandmaster.
Linghu Chong of the Huashan Sect!
Linghu Chong!
Senior Brother,
you're finally here!
He's the one
who's been bullying us.
Monkey.
Lao Denuo.
You two take care of our junior apprentice sister.
I'll deal with
this crazy guy
with the broken sword.
Okay!
Senior Sister!
Let's go!
Holy Maiden,
so you left for him to help.
Since you've all come together,
I won't have to go looking for you one by one.
Today
I'll capture you all
and present you to the Leader for reward!
That depends on
whether you have the ability to do so.
What sword technique is this?
It's none of your business.
Brother Chong, be careful!
Holy Maiden.
Long time to see.
Stop talking nonsense!
Where's that blind performer?
Why hasn't he arrived yet?
I'm blind,
not deaf!
Damn it!
Now the three b*stards have all arrived.
Great. We'll take them down all at once!
Brother Chong
Has Invincible East
raised a group of monsters?
Invincible East
refined the Three-Corpse Brain Pills
from the Sunflower Manual
and forced her followers to consume it.
They're completely loyal to him
and very difficult to defeat.
They may be strange,
but that doesn't mean they don't have weaknesses.
See how I'll beat them.
What kind of sword technique is that?
He's too powerful to defeat.
The wind's up!
Let's get out of here!
Split up and run!
Wanna escape?
Miss Ren,
take care of my junior apprentice sister!
Blue Phoenix,
take care of the Huashan disciples.
I'm going to help Linghu.
Holy Maiden,
don't leave me alone again.
Lea...Leader.
Stop!
Don't harm that young lady.
Miss,
are you alright?
It's cold here.
please have some wine to warm youself.
Good wine.
So, Miss,
you are also a wine lover.
I've never tasted
such excellent Nu'er hong before.
May I ask
where you got this wine?
The water here is good,
so naturally it produces good wiine.
I made it myself.
My name is Lingho Chong.
What's your name?
Just a chance meeting between strangers.
Why do we need to knoe each other's names?
Sharing a drink in Jianghu
makes us friends.
How could I not know your name?
I'm not lying.
I really don't have a name.
A name defines one's life.
How can you not have one?
Let me think of one for you.
Alright.
There are so many fish in this water,
I'll call you "Little Fish".
Little Fish,
not bad.
Miss Little Fish,
you should leave this forest quickly.
Something terrible
is about to happen here,
and if you get caught in it,
I'll never be able to
find wine
as sweet as yours again.
I was born
in the Black Woods
and have never left here.
Don't worry about me, Linghu.
I know the scenery here is beautiful,
but when you reach the waterfall,
you can no longer see the rainbow.
The rainbow has its beauty,
and so does the waterfall.
There's no such thing
as perfection in this world.
I'm in a hurry.
Take care.
I must leave now.
Miss Little Fish,
if I get the chance,
I'll definitely come back for your wine again.
Little Fish,
do you want to swim out of this small pond?
Why aren't they here yet?
Who is it?
Holy Maiden or Linghu?
It's you.
Miss Ren.
Oh no!
Did something bad happen to them!
Shifu.
Shifu.
You're finally awake.
Are you alright?
I was wound by Invincible East's
sinister aura
and affected by the miasma here,
which muddled my mind.
It seems your grandmaster
taught you well.
You've learned quite a bit.
Linghu.
Your skills now far surpass mine.
From now on, you no loner need to call me Shifu.
Shifu, I harmed you by accident.
I deserve punishment.
Please, Shifu, punish me.
Why are you here?
I heard that
Invincible East ambushed
the Five Mountains Sword Schools Alliance.
I felt worried about Shifu
and junior apprentice sister,
so I...
Your filial affection
moves me.
It's infuriating that Invincible East's
ragtag group
has mastered demonic arts,
while we of the Five Mountains' righteous path
uphold martial traditions.
Sadly,
our actions
were too hasty,
and we fell victim to the devil cult's schemes.
This place is indeed strange.
We shouldn't stay here long.
Let me take you out of here first.
No,
your junior apprentices
were taken by the devil cult
to the Black Woods Cliff.
What?
They took them all?
Yes,
I was just about to climb the cliff to rescue them.
We will reunite another day.
Shifu,
I will go with you.
For the sake of the Huashan Sect,
I am willing to die a thousand times.
Good.
I overheard some of the devil cult followers saying that
the sacred altar of the Sun Moon Holy Cult
is at the top of this dangerous cliff.
And Invincible East
performs a blood sacrifice here.
every day at noon.
He drinks human blood
to transcend life and death,
and the sacrificed people
are discarded like weeds.
Your junior apprentices
are likely among them.
Shifu,
it's not them .
That's good.
It seems the devil cult
hasn't had the chance to harm them yet.
Drat!
They've noticed us.
Let' split up to rescue them,
and meet at the top of the cliff.
Chong,
if we can successfully save our fellows,
I'll bring you back to Huashan for reunion.
Thank you, Shifu.
Greed, Anger, and Ignorance, pay respects to the Leader.
Leader,
we've brought the man
from the Central Plains
who's been pursuing you.
It's
a great honor for Yue
to meet the Leader.
So you are Yue Buqun?
Indeed, it's me.
The plan to lure and capture
the Five Mountains Sword Schools Alliance
and severely damage them
was my idea.
The Central Plains of Wuin
has suffered greatly
and is in disarray.
The devil cult...
The holy cult can now rest easy.
The Leader's domination of Jianghu
is within reach.
Look how excited he is.
You may all rise.
Thank you, Leader.
For your great contribution,
betraying even your fellows,
I bestow upon you something precious.
This is the Three-Corpse Brain Pills.
Once you take it,
you will become a member of the Holy Cult
immortal,
without love, without hate,
without regret, without resentment,
living on forever.
It lives up to its name.
To be honest,
I've grown old,
but with this miraculous pill, I'll live long
and can serve
my Leader for eternity.
What kind of fortune you've got
to deserve this miraculous pill.
Thank you, Leader.
Since you've taken my pill,
you are now one of us.
I command you to
capture the remaining members
of the Five Mountains Sword Schools Alliance
for the Holy Cult to make Gu poison.
As you command.
You've finally replaced me.
Are you used to this life now?
I've long gotten used to it.
Everyone seems
so happy today,
but why don't I
feel the same?
You've become Invincible East.
Don't enjoy your current life?
I don't like it,
but I don't hate it either.
Maybe this is the only way
I can truly live.
Not dying
doesn't necessarily mean living.
Today, I met someone
who told me that
a person's name defines their life.
Since I've taken the name of Invincible East,
shouldn't I
fulfill Invincible East's ideal?
Otherwise, what's the point of living?
What are you doing here?
Miss Little Fish,
do you know
this is Invincible East's room?
Let's get out of here.
I know perfectly well.
Why are you here if you know that?
Are you
Invincible East's maid?
Now I see.
You must have sneaked in
to steal some wine,
right?
It's said that the Sun Moon Holy Cult
has countless fine wines.
How could a wine lover like me
not come to check it out?
Indeed, wine lovers understand each other the best.
I just stole the key to the wine cellar.
Wanna come with me?
Okay.
No,
I have to save my fellows.
After I return from my mission,
I'll come to you for a drink.
Goodbye.
There are so many people in the Sun Moon Holy Cult.
How will you deal with them all
by yourself?
Why not wait until
the dead of night?
You'll have a better chance then.
You seems very familiar with this place.
I was born and rised
on the Black Woods Cliff.
But I'm still worried
about my junior and senior apprentice.
Don't worry.
Invincible East has been busy
wiping out the Five Mountains Sword Schools Alliance.
He hasn't had time to k*ll them.
There's no need to be so hasty.
How about this?
You accompany me for a drink first,
and then I'll help you find your people.
Deal?
This is a nice place, isn't it?
It's the first time I've seen
a rooftop used as a wine cellar.
The wine here has rich and wonderful aroma
and excellent qualities.
Black Woods Cliff's wine is made above ground.
The closer it gets to the stars,
the better the wine will be.
Is there
really such good wine in this world?
Gain and lost are but two sides of the same coin.
Coming and going follow a mere ich of fate.
Why hold onto fame and glory?
No need to rely on providence to prolonglife.
Great!
Linghu Chong,
is the outside world
really as wonderful
as you said?
Of course.
Where's your favorite place?
It's Huashan Mountain, of course.
I grew up there.
My Shifu
and my junior apprentices are there too.
The people in Jianghu
are all scrambling
for power
and fame.
Don't you want to
conquer the entire Jianghu?
What's the use of dominating?
It would only bring more grudges
and troubles.
If that's the case,
why take such risks
to come to this place of trouble?
I'm here to save people.
My junior apprentice
were captured and brought here.
Once I
save them,
I'll take them back to live in seclusion.
I'm trapped on the Black Woods Cliff.
And you
are trapped in the Huasan Mountain.
The Sun Moon Holy Cult
is a place of trouble.
It will devour you sooner or later.
Come with me.
I'll take you away from here.
I've never left
the Black Woods Cliff.
where would you take me?
To see the ocean,
the snowy mountain,
the grasslands.
To visit towns big and small,
and to taste the finest foods in the world.
The world is vast.
It's mean to be enjoyed,
not fought over.
Okay.
After we finish this bottle,
I'll go with you to save your people.
By the Leader's order,
we've captured a petty thief
from the Huashan Sect.
Take him to the dungeon.
As your command.
Go.
Senior Brother!
Senior Brother!
Senior Brother! This way, this way.
Senior Brother.
Come here.
Slowly, slowly, slowly.
Sit.
Senior Brother,
you got beaten too?
Does it hurt, Senior Brother?
I'm fine.
I was just pretending.
I knew
you were faking it.
Senior Brother,
I missed...
I missed you so much!
I'm not dead.
Why you cry like that?
Yeah.
Don't be so delicate.
How did you get hurt?
It was that Invincible East
who tried to force us to take some pills.
Yeah.
We'd rather die than submit.
So they tortured us.
Look here.
And here.
These bruises.
Alright,
injuries make you manly.
But I am a woman.
That's not important righ now.
Senior Brother,
how did you end up here?
Actually,
I came to rescue you all.
Come on. Let's drink.
Come on.
Lingho Chong,
you despicable scoundrel!
Despicable scoundrel!
You're greedy and lustful,
I can't stand you!
You're heartless and selfish!
Beat him! Beat him to death!
Beat him to death!
Beat him! Beat him!
Linghu Chong,
you finally died at my hands!
Dead!
Great!
Open the gate.
Quick. Quick. Quick.
Let's go.
Be quick.
Quick.
Quick. Quick. Quick. Quick.
Senior Brother,
isn't this your sword?
Senior Brother,
when did you
get such a
fancy wine gourd?
That's not important.
Let's go.
Senior Brother.
You drunken fool.
Hurry up and get out of here!
Senior Brother,
who's locked up in there?
Senior Brother.
Don't look,
it's terrifying. Let's go.
Let's go.
You...
Energy Absorbing to the Ground.
You're Xiang Wentian.
And you are...
Miss Ren.
Brother Chong.
After we parted ways in the Black Woods,
I went back
to look for Yue's group,
but they had disappeared.
I didn't expect
they would be imprisoned here.
Brother Chong, I'm sorry to have let you down.
Stop pretending!
What are you doing in this stone prison?
Tonight.
we noticed no guards were posted here.
We want to take advantage of this
to rescue our Leader Ren.
Let me out!
Let me out!
It's my father.
b*tch!
Since we know where master Ren
is being held,
I'll go with you to rescue him.
Brother Chong.
Brother Xiang.
Please guide them
to leave the Black Woods Cliff first.
Senior Brother.
Since you already knew
something strange was going on with
the Sun Moon Holy Cult tonight,
why are you?
going to help them
If Yingying hadn't come to inform me,
I wouldn't have known
you were in such great danger.
I owe her a debt
for this.
You go wth Brother Xiang first.
I'll meet up with you
after I rescue the others.
We'll go with you, Senior Brother.
Senior Brother.
If you're going,
we'll go with you together.
Yeah. Yeah.
Let's go together. Right
Don't be reckless!
it's easier for me to act alone.
Please, brother Xiang,
help them leave first.
OK.
Follow me.
This stone prison's mechanism is as solid as a fortress.
It's impossible to break through,
with our physical strength.
I have an idea.
Ren Woxing has escaped!
Who?
Who is there faking the news?
It's your grandmaster
Linghu Chong.
Brother Chong's plan
is truly unexpected!
I'll hold them off,
you rescue your father.
Okay.
Father.
Pull out
the steel rod that's sealingmy key acupoints.
Step back.
This way.
This way. Hurry.
Quick.
My Leader.
My Leader.
Run!
Spare us, Leader!
Spare us, Leader!
Leader Ren, you...
A real man
with such skills
has no need for mercy with these people.
They've already surrendered,
why did you k*ll them?
All traitors
deserve death.
Father,
they are just
innocent fellows of our Holy Cult.
To survive,
they had no choice
but to obey Invincible East's orders.
Why must you eliminate them all?
No choice?
If they had no choice,
then they're traitors.
If they were loyal to me,
they would have already committed siuicide in my honor.
Then,
they wouldn't have to
die in such disgrace today.
Linghu Chong,
you saved my life,
and you seem to have a deep connection
with my daughter.
I'll make an exception and overlook your Han origin.
What about joining our cult
to achieve your ambitions?
No need.
Today, I'll leave this mountain for seclusion.
From now on,
Jianghu affairs have nothing to do with me.
Linghu Chong,
you've trained in martial arts for half your life.
Was is not for fame and fortune?
Help me eliminate Invincible East,
reclaim my position as Leader
and restore the Holy Cult's rightful place.
You'll be
second only to me,
above all others.
Thank you for your offer, Leader.
But I do not seek fame or fortune.
Our paths differ,
and we cannot walk together.
Farewell.
Brother Chong!
Brother Chong,
stay.
I'm willing to mary my daughter to you out of goodwill.
Don't reject my kindness!
Or do you not fear bringing ruin upon Huashan Sect?
Our Sect has stood strong for a hundred years
and will find its own way to survive.
It won't be so easily destroyed
by the whims of others.
That's all.
Goodbye.
Young master Linhu,
please wait!
The Jianghu world
is so unreasonable!
Father,
it's me who asked young master Linghu
for help.
If you repay kindness with enmity now,
how can I live on
with such a bad fame.
Father.
Linghu Chong,
for my daughter's sake,
I'll let go of you.
Now get out of my sight!
Brother Chong.
Brother Chong.
Sorry for dragging you into all this.
But I had no choice.
Please don't hold it against me,
okay?
How could I blame you?
Things in Jianghu
rarely go as we wish.
But you should
understand my feelings.
Unfortunately,
in this martial world,
we can't always act as we desire.
Yingying.
Take care.
Senior Brother!
Senior Brother,
welcome back!
Senior Brother! Senior Brother! Senior Brother!
You guys
are waiting for me here.
Senior Brother,
ar you hurt?
I'm unbeatable!
How could I be hurt?
We've already prepared foood and drinks.
Yeah.
Tonight, we won't leave until we're completely drunk!
Alright.
Let's go.
Let's go.
Drink till tomorrow!
Let's go.
Let's go.
Senior Brother,
you have to drink a lot tonight!
These potatoes...
I coud eat five of these.
Senior Brother,
try this dish.
I'll try first.
What are you doing?
Careful, don't burn youself!
You alway grab before Senior Brother does.
It'll burn your mouth!
Yeah.
Here, it's for you.
Senior Brother,
when Shifu returns,
let's go back to Huashan Mountain together
and never come to this wretched place again.
Enough!
My father
hasn't returned yet.
With Shifu's skills,
he should be fine.
He's probably discussing strategies
with the other four sect leaders.
He also promised me that
if we make it out
safely tomorrow,
he'll take me back to Huashan Mountain.
That's wonderful,
Senior Brother!
When Master expelled you from Huashan,
we all went on a hunger strike together.
Yes, we did!
Exactly, right!
From now on,
if anyone dares suggest
expelling Senior Brother from Huashan again,
I, Monkey,
will curse...curse their ancestors
for eighteen generations!
That's right, yes!
From today,
from this moment on,
we'll never be separated again,
okay?
Okay.
Senior Brother. Senior Brother.
Look.
Father
has finally changed his mind.
Having you all by my side in this life
is enough for me.
Come on!
Let's eat heartily and drink deeply!
Tomorrow, when we return to Huashan,
we'll forget all the unpleasantness.
We'll retire to the mountains
and laugh proudly in Jianghu.
Cheers! Cheers! Cheers!
Go back to Huashan!
Senior Brother,
wait for me!
Thanks to the noble sacrifice of the four sect leaders.
If I hadn't k*lled you,
how could Invincible East
have believed in me?
How could I
obtain the Sunflower Manual
and conquer Jianghu?
When Qingming Festival comes,
I will help you sweep your tombs
and pay my respects.
Shifu!
Go, leave quickly!
Leave!
Chong,
I've worked so hard to infiltrate the demonic cult
and become their Gu Master.
If they
find you here,
they'll start suspecting me.
Quick! Leave, Chong!
Leave quickly!
I may be an orphan,
but I'm not heartless.
Now I see clearly
who you really are.
Chong, don't be silly!
Invincible East
has mastered the Sunflower Manual
and successfully made the Three-Corpse Brain Pills.
If I hadn't
infiltrated her ranks,
biding my time for a right moment,
how could we have any chance to k*ll her.
and work off the shame of
the Five Mountains Sword Schools Alliance?
I have always been
upright.
But now
I have to bite the b*llet
and become a disgrace to our sect.
I did it all for Huashan
and the Central Plains of Wulin.
You just want to get your hands on
the Sunflower Manual!
You're right!
I want the Sunflower Manual
to strengthen the Huashan Sect.
Is that so wrong?
Chong.
If I had been
more skilled
that day on Huashan Mountain,
I wouldn't let Zuo Lengchan
humiliate you
and bully our entire sect.
But you can't help the evil
to harms our fellows!
What do you want me to do?
Invincible East forced me to take
the Three-Corpse Brain Pills.
If I hadn't obeyed her,
I'd already be dead
thousands of times.
But you're the Leader of the Huashan Sect!
Yes, I am.
I could die.
But what about my daughter?
As long as I can cling on to life
for a few more years,
Invincible East
won't harm her,
and she'll be able to live safely.
I'd rather be misunderstood
by the entire Wulin.
Chong,
your master is old
and no longer as powerful as before.
I fell so much regret.
All I want
is to stay alive
and watch over my daughter as she grows up.
Please, for her sake...
Shifu.
Come.
Chong,
as you were my apprentice,
I'd like to teach you one last lesson:
it's every man for himself in the world.
The Leader's skill is extraordinary
it's doesn't even hurt.
Is it still possible
to take the Three-Corpse Brain Pill now?
In the end, I've saved your life.
You saved my life,
I saved yours.
Now we're even.
If you want to leave,
I won't stop you.
It was you who saved
my fellows last time, right?
You've saved my life more than once.
Since you know that,
then why did you come back?
Haven't you already left Jianghu
and retired to a peaceful life?
Don't you remember?
I also promised
to take you away from here
to see the sea,
to see the snow-capped mountains.
I may never be able to
leave this dark pool.
You can as long as you want to do it.
What are you afraid of?
I'm afraid that you'll regret it
before we leave the Black Woods.
You and I are not on the same path.
You go east,
I go west.
This fleeting moment
of meeting
was a gift from heaven.
From now on,
we'll walk our own ways,
won't we?
Lfe is short
and in this short life of ours,
isn't it
all about moments like this?
Miss Little Fish.
Miss Little Fish.
Miss Little Fish.
Miss Little Fish.
Miss Little Fish.
Heaven has bestowed me with great responsibility
and supreme power.
These people from the Central Plains
who dared to invade the Black Woods Cliff...
So this is
Invincible East.
...have now
been completely wiped out by me.
The sun rises in the east, and only i am undefeated!
Invincible East, ruler of Jianghu!
The sun rises in the east, and only i am undefeated!
Invincible East, ruler of Jianghu!
What undefeated?
I simply want to be
The sun rises in the east, and only i am undefeated!
...the one and only me in this world.
...ruler of Jianghu!
The sun rises in the east, and only i am undefeated!
Invincible East, ruler of Jianghu!
Could it be that Miss Little Fish
is actually Invincible East?
Don't move!
Let go of me!
Stand still!
So, you are Invincible East.
How dare you!
You're gonna die.
How dare you to call the Leader's name directly!
What is there for me not to dare?
Invincible East,
you dared to usurp power
and disrupt the cult,
but you dont dare to show your true face?
Invincible East,
have you gone mad
practising the Sunflower Manual?
Look at you now,
neither human nor demon
When you go to sleep at night,
do you dare to look...
You are the Leader of the demonic cult,
Invincible East.
Yes.
So, do you still want to take me away?
If you had left
early this morning,
the encounter between us
would have been a beautiful memory.
But alas,
there's too much you want to know.
From the moment at the waterfall,
you've been deceiving me.
Linghu Chong,
do you really want to force me to
admit that I am a monster?
Fine,
I'll tell you.
From the day I was born,
I've been a cursed, venomous demon.
The Sun Moon Holy Cult used me for poison testing,
and I survived
by becoming immune
to all poisons.
Everyone treated me
as a monster,
no one was willing to get close to me,
even for a moment.
If I hadn't mastered
the Sunflower Manual by accident
and stood on this altar
with a human form.
would you have ever drunk my wine?
Would you have stayed by my side?
Would you have come looking for me
in the morning?
Would you?
Why didn't you tell me
you were Invincible East?
Does it matter who I am?
Does it matter what my name is?
Didn't you say
you'd take me to see the sea
and enjoy life?
I don't want to see you again.
Junior Sister!
Junior Sister!
Monkey!
Lao Denuo!
Junior Sister!
Junior Sister! You're finally awake!
Junior Sister! I'm your Senior Brother.
Linghu Chong.
Linghu Chong.
Be careful!
Linghu Chong.
Don't touch me!
Junior Sister!
My father was right.
My father was right.
It was you...
it was you who caused the death of everyone here.
Everyone!
Who did all this?
It was you!
Invincible East
wanted you to join the Sun Moon Holy Cult
so they k*lled everyone of the Huashan Sect
to sever your ties to the past.
Linghu Chong,
I have no words.
I won't stand in the way of
your bright future anymore.
Junior Sister!
Junior Sister!
It was my fault!
Junior Sister!
I was the one blinded by foolishness.
Junior Sister!
Senior Brother!
Senior Brother!
Huashan Sect
is gone.
Brothers,
this is a peaceful place.
Let the sword be your gravestone.
After finishing this wine,
you shall rest in peace here.
In your next life,
you can be the seniors,
and I'll be the junior.
When I've
avenged this blood feud,
I'll come to bring you back to Huashan Mountain.
Father,
when do we set out?
Don't rush.
Brother Chong.
Linghu Chong.
Why are you back?
To k*ll Invincible East.
Count me in.
Leader,
everything is ready.
Follow me to the top of the Black Woods Cliff.
Yes, Leader.
Go!
Go!
Linghu.
Leader.
Leave this to me,
You go find Invincible East.
Linghu Chong.
Are you here to k*ll me too?
Today, there must be
an end between us.
Is it simply because
I'm the leader of the so-called demonic cult
that you now disregard
our past relationship
and g*ng up with others
to k*ll me?
Don't bring that up again.
If you truly cared about our friendship,
how could you have k*lled
my fellows?
Did you think that drinking their blood
to preserve
your beauty
would make me stay?
You ungrateful people!
How dare you slander the Leader!
I pity the Leader for wasting her care on you.
A devil like Invincible East
deserved death.
There's no need to talk to her any longer.
Ren Woxing,
you are the last person in the world
who has the right to speak to me.
Linghu Chong,
if you insist on following your righteous path,
then as you said,
drink this wine,
and we'll break up.
with no debts.
You can take revenge now.
Make your move.
Be careful.
Are you okay?
You despicable coward,
fight me face to face if you dare!
Ling...Linghu...
That b*tch is really powerful.
Just fight against her with all your strength.
Once she's caught off guard
and reveals a flaw,
I'll use the Cosmic Absorbing Power
to go straight for her core.
What do you think?
Okay.
You've truly hardened your heart,
aiming for my life with every move.
You k*lled my junior brothers.
How can I not hate you?
If I say I didn't do that,
will you believe me?
The person I knew
was never Invincible East,
but that innocent Miss Little Fish
who longed for freedom.
Everyone in life
makes choices
that no one else can understand.
One day, you'll have
your own 9th stance.
Take your sword as a measure of things.
From now on,
may you measure your own path.
If you see
any members of the demonic cult in the future,
will you k*ll them all without mercy?
A real man
with such skills
has no need for mercy with these people.
Do you understand
my feelings?
We'll retire to the mountains
and laugh proudly in Jianghu.
You have no pulse.
Where is your heart?
Brother Chong,
where has your heart gone?
Why did you do that?
Linghu Chong,
isn't your sword a measure of things?
How long is an inch of justice?
How short is an inch of longing?
Can your sword
measure that?
Linghu Chong,
you're not allowed to die.
You cannot die.
You cannot die.
In this lifetime,
if there's someone
willing to risk everything for me,
then
I will also risk everything
for that person once.
There were a moment
when I thought
the heartbeat I felt
was my own.
Now I know
it was hers.
You drunkard,
hurry up and leave this place!
Congratulations to Leader Ren
on returning to the Sun Moon Holy Cult.
Invincible East.
Invincible East.
What did you say?
Senior Brother.
Invincible East.
I recognize that voice.
Linghu.
Those so-called righteous sects
won't keep you.
Why not stay
and become the vice leader of my cult?
Together, we could conquer Jianghu.
The Jianghu affairs
no longer concern me.
Brother Chong.
You knew all along.
Yes, and no.
I indeed wanted to k*ll your father.
But he dies,
how many of your cult members
will come to Huashan to seek revenge?
This cycle of vengeance
is meaningless.
But where there are people,
there is Jianghu.
So how to completely
leave it behind?
Such a Jianghu
is not worth staying in.
Go.
Leave this place.
I have my own path.
A laugh from the vast sea
Tides surge from both shores
Let things rise and fall with the waves
I remember only the present
A laugh from the heaven
The world's currents are fleeting
Only fate remembers
who wins, who loses
A laugh from the mountains
The Jianghu's tales fade in misty rain
The waves wash away life's vanities
How much can we ever truly know
A laugh from the fresh wind
a trace of solitude
Our high spirits linger
in the glow of the setting sun
A laugh from the mountains
The Jianghu's tales fade in misty rain
The waves wash away life's vanities
How much can we ever truly know
A laugh from the masses
Loneliness fades away
Our high spirits remain
Laughing foolishly, freely
