♫ Ask the sword, the knife, to cast away resentment ♫

♫ I fear that new and old grudges will add to my troubles ♫

♫ Ask each tactic, each trick, to test who is more skilled ♫

♫ The ups and downs of life are difficult to predict ♫

♫ Ask the road and journey across remote lands ♫

♫ Where is my soulmate? I'm so lonely ♫

♫ Ask the rain and clear skies about the troubles on my mind ♫

♫ Face the moon every day and night ♫

♫ Ask the flowers and leaves, their colors are perfect ♫

♫ Happiness and pain are fleeting; how many springs remain? ♫

♫ Ask autumn and winter, the snowstorm continues ♫

♫ The rainbow scatters easily but the days are hard to endure ♫

♫ No one knows why the flowers blossomed early ♫

♫ Heaven doesn't laugh, for it has grown old ♫

♫ The pugilist world is small, but the rest of the world is vast ♫

♫ I've forgotten those who are gone ♫

♫ No one knows why the flowers withered early ♫

♫ Heaven feels no sorrow for it has grown old ♫

♫ The heroes have died and little time is left ♫

♫ I've forgotten those who are gone ♫

[Word of Honor]

[Episode 5]

- Junior Master!
- Junior Master!

"The Iridescent Clouds have scattered, and the Glaze has shattered."

Shen, just you wait!

The number of people coming to steal the Glazed Armor will only increase by more and more!

Both of you, come here.

Leader Shen, these two disciples have already converted to the Mount Tai Sect.

If there is anything you wish to say, why don't you tell me?

Ao Laizi, you're refusing to hand over my Third Brother Lu's disciples.

What is your motive?

Leader Shen, this is where you're wrong.

Before his death, Leader Lu personally entrusted these two disciples to me.

It's your Five Lakes Alliance that abuses your power and oppresses others.

I respect that you are a sect leader, and I have always treated you with proper courtesy.

I suggest you grant my request while I’m still being respectful.

Junior Uncle Shen, on Master's deathbed,

he indeed told us to follow Senior Ao Laizi in the future.

On account of your relationship, please respect his final wishes.

Please don't force us.

You rascal!

Your master was delirious from illness!

If you really transfer to Mount Tai Sect,

Danyang Sect will have no successor,

and you will be considered the sinner of Danyang Sect!

Please don't make things difficult for these two children.

Do you want them or the item?

Cut to the chase!

What if I want them all?

Can you stop me?

Fifth Brother!

Master!

- Master, are you okay?
- Fifth Brother, why are you here?

Why are you with Senior Ao Laizi?

Qing Hua, this is Great Warrior Shen.

Don't worry, I'm not hurt.

Fifth Brother, you're injured.

Second Brother, I came here by chance

and saw that wicked old couple, Tao Hong and Lv Liu,

being rude to Senior Ao Laizi,

so I acted to chase them away.

You came at the perfect time.

Senior Ao Laizi has had a tiring trip escorting our Danyang Sect's successors here.

We must thank him properly.

Thank you, Senior. Tao Hong and Lv Liu dared to cause trouble for Mount Tai Sect.

But do not worry, in the future, our Five Lakes Alliance will definitely help you settle the score.

You've had a tiring day.

Why don't you follow me back to Sanbai Manor and rest before we talk some more?

Great Warrior Zhao, what if I am not willing?

If you do not wish to return with us,

then naturally, it is because I lack virtue and do not have enough ability

to be able to invite you as my guest.

Let's meet again on another day.

We won't hold you up anymore today.

- Second Brother!
- Fifth Brother, he is highly respected.

We can't make too huge of a scene in front of so many people.

Since you won't do us the honor,

I can only send you off.

Have a safe journey.

However, these two successors of our Danyang Sect...

We will listen to Master, and we're willing to follow Leader Ao Laizi.

Then I beg that you treat them well.

You two children, you must always be smart and sensible.

Don't embarrass the Five Lakes Alliance.

Senior, haven't you heard that a common man's only crime is to carry treasure?

Just Tao Hong and Lv Liu were able to force you into such a tough spot.

Are you sure you want to forge ahead dogmatically?

Both have their own intentions.

Thank you so much for your help, Great Warrior Shen.

Everyone, we will see each other again in the martial arts world.

Let's go, disciples.

Come, Chengling. Greet your Fifth Uncle.

Fifth Uncle.

Second Brother,

this is Chengling?

Yes.

These are the two righteous men who escorted Chengling to Sanbai Manor.

I was neglectful just now

and hadn't yet asked what the names of you righteous men were.

We're just nobodies who aren't worth mentioning.

We were just ordered to do this.

Since we have completed this—

He's Zhou Xu and I'm Wen Kexing.

Great Warrior Zhao. Great Warrior Shen.

We escorted Chengling all the way here arduously,

and we were met with many difficulties.

[Jingrui Temple]

The fragrance of flowers, incense, and beauties intoxicates us.

The sounds of water, zithers, and spring birds move our hearts.

Great Warrior Zhao, you are so refined.

I'd like to propose a toast to you.

I did not expect that you would have such literary talent.

Come on, come on. Let's drink!

Righteous Zhou and Wen, I'll propose a toast to you, too.

Thank you so much for escorting Chengling here.

All of us from the Five Lakes Alliance are very grateful.

I haven't had the chance to introduce him yet.

This is my fifth brother, Shen Shen.

He's the leader of the Mount Dagu Sect.

You're Great Sect Leader Shen? It's an honor to finally meet you.

As expected, hearing about you hundreds of times is less powerful than meeting you once.

Your elegance is much more refined than the rumors say.

It is such an honor.

Excuse me for a moment, you two.

Everyone, thank you so much for acting to help our Five Lakes Alliance.

This man by the surname of Zhao really knows how to throw a banquet.

My nephew Zhang Chengling has returned today.

I'm unable to contain my happiness!

A'Xu, this prawn is nice.

Come on, try it.

The Window of Heaven Archives only wrote "Great Warrior Sanbai, Zhao Jing,

married the only daughter of West Zhejiang's previous Observer and is very wealthy."

I didn't expect him to be this grand.

No wonder people say he's like Meng Chang.
[T/N: A generous figure in Chinese history]

Master!

Come on, let's rest for a while.

Senior.

Master!

- Are you okay?
- I'm fine, I'm fine.

Five Lakes Alliance is an established sect.

Although Shen Shen keeps pressuring us, we are the reasonable side.

He won't dare to publicly m*ssacre his peers in the martial arts world!

Child, what do you mean, "he won't dare to publicly m*ssacre"?

Can't he do it secretly?

Even if Shen Shen doesn't take this action,

didn't you hear Tao Hong and Lv Liu's words?

Since information about the Glazed Armor has been leaked,

the martial arts world will never be peaceful.

Since the storm has begun, there will be unrest in the martial arts world.

When in danger, no one can come out of it unscathed.
[T/N: When a bird's nest is overturned, no eggs can remain whole.]

Life and death are not as important as keeping promises.

This is the duty of my generation.

My life is not important.

You kids must live on well

and carry on the legacies of the Mount Tai Sect and Danyang Sect.

With all of you good children bringing glory to our sect,

Leader Lu and I...

can smile even after death.

Master, please don't say that.

- Master!
- Senior!

Who goes there?

Help! Help!

Help!

Be careful, children!

Help!

Help! Help!

[Young Leader of Broken Sword Mountain Villa, Mu Yunge]

Save me!

Stand back.

Help!

Save me!

Great Warrior, save me. Save me!

You? You're from Broken Sword Mountain Villa!

- There's... there's a female ghost chasing me.
- Female ghost?

There's a female ghost chasing me!

What female ghost?

Those who break the hearts of others will eventually have their broken.

Your unfaithful name has already been recorded

in the List of the Unfaithful due to your hateful parting.

Mu Yunge.

Your time is up.

Go.

What demon or ghost is here?

Quickly show yourself!

Before the throne of the List of Unfaithful's owner,

you are an old Daoist

who does not own any love debts, so why are you interfering?

Those who want to live, hurry up and scram!

Owner of the List of Unfaithful, Tragicomic Ghost!

Luo Fumeng! Qing Bai!

Yes!

Take your juniors away first.

Hurry! Go!

- Master, be careful!
- Senior!

- Master! Master!
- Senior!

Then how about I leave first?

No, no, no.

You must stay, okay?

Stay here and learn how to handle these kinds of occasions.

Fifth Brother, he is still a child.

Doesn't everyone start learning how to drink when they're a child?

Come!

Uncle Shen, I can't drink.

You must drink!

Fifth Brother!

Your father had an alcohol tolerance that allowed him to drink thousands of cups without collapsing!

How could he have a son who can't drink?

Huairen, take your Uncle back.

- Yes.
- Second Brother!

Junior Master, come on. Let's go back to rest.

I'm not drunk.

Junior Master, let's go back, okay? Junior Master.

Then you teach Chengling.

He's just like this when he gets drunk.

Come, I'll take you back.

Have a nice bath and sleep.

Great Warrior Zhao, that young master just now looked dashing.

He's my eldest brother's beloved disciple, Song Huairen.

[Disciple of Yueyang Sect, Song Huairen]

Elder Brother Zhao, this is the leader of the famous Mount Hua Sect,

Yu Qiufeng.

That is his son, Yu Tianjie,
[Leader of Mount Hua Sect, Yu Qiufeng]

a young hero.
[Yu Qiu Feng's son, Yu Tianjie]

This is my new friend,

Wen Kexing, Great Warrior Wen.

Great Warrior Wen, nice to meet you.

Turns out it's Great Sect Leader Yu and Master Yu.

What an honor to finally meet you.

As expected, hearing about you hundreds of times is less powerful than meeting you once.

Your elegance is much more refined than the rumors say.

[Jingrui Temple]

Great Warrior, would you like to change?

Don't worry about me.

I'll find somewhere to vomit.

The Five Lakes Alliance is full of schemes and deceptions.

What is this Yu Tianjie up to?

Why are things so lively?

If you don't do evil things,

you won't be afraid that ghosts will knock on your doors at night!

Five Lakes Alliance, you have done too many evil things,

and the ghosts have come knocking!

Help! Help... Help!
[Jingrui Temple]

What happened? Calm down, don't panic.

What happened?

What happened?

The main gate...Something happened at the main gate!

[Sanbai Mountain Villa]

- My Lord, look!
- My Lord.

Senior Ao Lai!

Senior Ao Laizi.

Senior brother... Senior brother!

Senior brother!

Senior brother!

Happy Ghost?

This is Happy Ghost's mark!

Ghost Valley!

Happy Ghost from the Ten Devils of the Ghost Valley.

First Mirror Lake, then Tai Lake.

He always displays the bodies after k*lling them.

It seems like this time, the Ghost Valley

has come for the Five Lakes Alliance.

Master!

Senior Brother!

Chengling?

We were tricked. It's a decoy!

[Joyful Moon Pavilion]

Chengling!

Chengling, are you okay?

Young Master Zhang, was that person just now from the Ghost Valley?

- I don't know.
- You...

You don't know?

What did he look like?

I don't know. I'm afraid.

- Master!
- You... you...

Calm down, calm down!

How would he know about the Ghost Valley?

Great Warrior Yu, those people just now were just a few men wearing ghost masks.

They wanted to take advantage of this mess and kidnap Master Zhang.

Their martial arts skills weren't that good.

They ran the moment I started fighting.

It's indeed the Ghost Valley.

If you say so.

It's just that they were total trash.

It's clear that the Ghost Valley didn't live up to its reputation

and upon meeting you,

their admirable reputation became so different.

So different.

Great Warrior Wen, you saved Chengling again this time.

I really don't know how to thank you.

[Autumn's Echos]

Who is it?

Darling Mu.

Ghost... Ghost. Ghost!

That's true, I've already become a ghost.

One corpse, two deaths.

While I was pregnant with our child,

I was strangled to death with a hemp rope at the foot of Broken Sword Manor.

That's right, Darling Mu,

do you want to see our unborn child?

Yan... Yanwan...

It was all my fault.

It was all my fault!

I...

I will do a Liberation Rite of Water and Land for you for a month.
[T/N: A Buddhist ceremony performed for dead souls]

You... Let me go...

No...

We already agreed

to be two birds of one wing in the sky

and two branches of the same tree under the ground.

Now that I'm under the ground,

you have to come down and accompany us!

[Happiness]

[Ten Devils of the Ghost Valley, Alluring Ghost, Liu Qianqiao]

You scared that b*stard who used and deserted to death!

Sister Liu, you're amazing.

Let's see if he dares to do such evil deeds in the future.

Silly girl, he won't have such a chance in this life.

Let's first see if he's reincarnated as a human in his next life!

Sister Liu, your transformation is god-like!

It's nothing.

If you want to learn, I can teach all of you.

- Okay, we all want to learn!< br> - We want to learn!

However, it's easy to learn and difficult to master.

[Sanbai Mountain Villa]

Can't sleep?

Master.

Chengling... you can't call me that anymore.

I have fulfilled my promise and safely brought you to Sanbai Mountain Villa.

If you want to learn martial arts, Zhao Jing, Gao Chong, and Shen Shen

are all great warriors who can teach you.

Our fate ends here.

You're a man, you can't cry in the future.

I won't cry, I'm a man.

Men only shed blood, not tears.

[Young Qin Jiuxiao]

You can't cry.

You're a man, you can't cry.

I know, I won't cry.

You don't cry, so I won't cry, either.

You kept saying that it would be foolproof,

so how did the Glazed Armor still get stolen?

I was neglectful.

We fell for a double decoy.

I thought they wanted to kidnap Zhang Chengling,

but I didn't expect that they would actually open the door to the secret room

with the Glazed Armor being their goal.

Then who do you think would be able to break into your secret room?

The secret room door was locked with Heaven's Mystery Lock.

It's a top secret and no outsiders would know.

No one would be able to open it.

That means we have an enemy in our midst.

But how could they have timed the retrieval so perfectly?

You mean there is a traitor in my mountain villa?

The person Yu Tianjie was chasing stole the Glazed Armor.

Who exactly was that masked man?

Second Brother, how could you be so muddle-headed?

Danyang Sect has no more descendants. Mirror Lake Sect was exterminated.

In the blink of an eye, the elder in Mount Tai Sect died.

Ghost Valley is obviously after the Glazed Armor.

Now three of the five pieces are gone.

There were five pieces of Glazed Armor.

Looks like each of the five brothers in the Five Lakes Alliance kept one of the pieces.

Twenty years.

What have you done in these twenty years, Second Brother!

Have riches rotted your bones?

In one night, someone came to k*ll, and another came to rob!

Is the security at your Sanbai Mountain Villa any different from a teahouse or tavern?

Eldest Brother was right.

Do you think these people really look up to you as Great Warrior of Sanbai?

They are all just greedy for riches.

What has the great Tai Lake Sect come to, in your hands?

Do you even know how many people's lives it took to build up

the 100-year prestige of the Five Lakes Alliance?

And thanks to you, people have made it into a joke!

Yes.

You are right about everything.

Everyone else says that the Five Lakes Alliance is so prestigious

and that I, Great Warrior Sanbai, live so honorably.

The truth is, isn't it just that I have some money?

I've disgraced the Five Lakes Alliance,

but the truth is that I don't want anything.

I just want everyone in the Zhang family to be well.

As long as we five brothers are well and as long as Eldest Brother Rong is well, that's enough.

If we had known earlier,

why would we build an armory or covet the Glazed Armor?

Fifth Brother, you still have a piece of the Glazed Armor.

Take it out and let's destroy it.

All five pieces of the Glazed Armor are necessary.

If we destroy it, no one else can open the armory

and the world will be at piece.

Second Brother, has your anger made you muddle-headed?

How many people did we brothers sacrifice to keep the secret of the armory?

If you destroy the Glazed Armor, wouldn't they all have died in vain?

- Who is it!
- Who is it!

Whose concealment technique is so good that he can even hide from me?

Who is it?

♫ Willows are all over the town, but there are no flying catkins ♫

Come down.

♫ My heart has closed, and your returning horse does not appear ♫

Thank you, A'Xu, helping me stop the two of them.

Our A'Xu usually loves to bully me, but when dealing with outsiders,

you're able to understand who are and are not close to you.

Brother Wen, instead of being a guest, you became a thief in the shadows.

What are you up to?

Aren't you doing the same?

I know, I know.

Although we usually don't say it, our hearts are as clear as mirrors.

The Five Lakes Alliance hides many secrets

and our little Chengling is so naive.

That's why we have to find out the origins of the Glazed Armor and its implications.

Otherwise, this group of tigers and wolves will swallow him alive sooner or later.

You see, wasn't what happened tonight surprising?

I saw Yu Tianjie running out after a masked man.

That person must be the traitor Zhao Jing mentioned.

All across the road on the way here, I noticed traces of fights.

They only disappeared here.

Be careful!

Soul Winding Spell?

This time, it's the real Hanging Ghost.

So the Hanging Ghost that A'Xiang k*lled was fake.

Xue Fang has been famous for almost 30 years.

If he could be defeated by a lying little girl,

then the people who were k*lled by him wouldn't be able to lie still in their coffins.

A'Xu, the saying is that people shouldn't talk about others during daytime or ghosts during nighttime.

Why are you so unsuperstitious?

I know.

You're a male virgin, so you're not afraid of ghosts, right?

A'Xu, you're not afraid of blood, are you?

It just disgusts me.

You're a combative expert, yet you're afraid of blood?

I'm laughing so hard, it's too funny!

Don't be angry, don't be angry. I'll clean it for you.

This will make it much easier.
[T/N: Cutting off a sleeve is a Chinese euphemism for h*m* love, and it comes from a story written in the Qing Dynasty]

The mantis st*lks the cicada, unaware of the yellow sparrow behind.

Do you want to make a bet with me?

Let's guess which brother is hanging there.

No cheating.

Boring.

If you don't guess, it means you give up.

I'm going to guess.

I guess that he's the son of the Leader of Mount Hua Sect, Yu Tianjie.

Revealed. I won the first round.

A'Xu, where are you going?

It's the middle of the night. Wait for me.

Tonight's Sanbai Mountain Villa

was so lively with so many people coming and going.

A'Xu, this is the second round.

Guess who this masked man is.

Don't come so close to me.

I know it's too hard to guess who he is.

Why don't we guess... who k*lled him?

Song Huairen.

The disciple that Gao Chong sent to Sanbai Mountain Villa.

Turns out he's the traitor.

You didn't even guess who k*lled him.

Yu Tianjie.

I saw them fight.

Taiyue's Green Peak Swordsmanship.

Wrong, the sword cut wasn't the fatal injury.

This wound is,

but... what weapon caused this injury?

This wound looks like it was caused by Iron Hook

but even I don't have any impression of this martial art.

A'Xu, do you hear owls laughing?

As the saying goes, don't be afraid to hear an owl's call,

but be afraid to hear an owl laugh.

Once it laughs, people will die.

A number of people have died tonight.

Not enough.

I heard that there was a child who heard an owl laugh

and then his village had dozens of deaths.

If everyone is a cicada,

then who is the yellow sparrow or the praying mantis?

The world is like a game of chess.

Every person who believes themselves to be a cunning zealot

always thinks they have the upper hand.

Everyone thinks they are the yellow sparrow,

but none of them have any idea that they are actually the tiny cicada.

If you want to say you're the yellow sparrow, just say it.

A'Xu, where are you going?

It's the middle of the night.

I'm a tiny cicada who is afraid of ghosts!

[Zhao Coffin Home]

Watch out!

Good.

What a vicious trap.

It's too inferior to be shown.

You're beautiful, your martial arts skills are strong,

and you've got a rich experience.

In the martial arts world, there are so many average people,

someone with talent as outstanding as yours...

Why have I never heard of the name Zhou Xu?

A'Xu, who exactly are you?

I think putting this question onto you, Brother Wen,

is more appropriate.

Who are you?

A good person.

Although I don't look it,

I really am a good person.

In the place where I come from,

everyone calls me Philanthropist Wen.

Come with me then, Philanthropist Wen.

Gladly!

[Zhao Ancestral Hall]

[Memorial tablets of Zhao Family]

Brother, you are so filial,

keeping vigil here in the middle of the night.

You're lighting incense at this time,

but aren't you afraid you will be approached by lonely spirits or wild ghosts?

You have to know whom you are deceiving.

Brother, you've met your match today.

Father?

It's good.

Senior Brother, come and help me!

If your senior brother comes, he will of course help me.

[Leader of Four Seasons Manor, Qin Huaizhang]

Come, come, Zishu!

Shall the three of us build a big snowman?

Come on.

Zishu.

Hallucination.

No touching him. Don't bully him.

Old Wen, hurry and wake up!

It's a hallucination!

I'm here.

Drug Men?

Damn it.

The scent that makes people hallucinate

is called Drunk Life Dream Death.

You're afraid of blood!

That's so funny.

Drink this.

What is it?

Treacle? Is it sweet?

Zhou Zishu, you lied!

I'm going to tell my mother!

Mother!

What did he call me just now?

When did he know my name?
