Border Town Prodigal

Episode 8

The beans are not fully cooked.

You are lucky to have food to eat. How dare you to be picky!

Non-sense!

My lady! Wait for me! Wait for me!

Miss Ma, thank you so much!

Move!

I definitely will win!

Ye Kai! Imagine that you would be like this today!

Today I am going to use my MuRong sword skill

to stab through your body many times!

Come!

Nice!

You really know how to escape!

Take this! -Try again!

Mr. MuRong, come on!

You think you can jump pretty high, huh?

Now you fall on your ass, eh?

Why don't you jump again?

No! No more!

Now let's see how you can escape this!

Mr. MuRong!

Were you bitten by the mosquitoes?

I will kill you!

What happened to you, Mr. MuRong?

Don't be so polite!

You sneaked on me!

Nothing here!

I will stab you to the death!

Why are you so polite, Mr. MuRong?

Warrior Ye! My ordinary martial art skill is only enough to take advantage of the usual people.

It is no comparison to yours. In addition, your chains are open.

You are free to move now.

It is not fair.

I surrender!

Mr. MuRong, your MuRong sword skill is so powerful that one person can use it to defeat one hundred enemies!

One strike can make several holes.

Oh, I know. You must think my martial art is not good enough so you will not use the full force.

Fine. I'll then exert more effort.

I must see the Murong Sword Technique.

Young Madam.

No need to hurry.

Young Madam, if we let this continue, someone may die.

Hero Ye, please have mercy.

That can't be. Your Ten Thousand Horses Hall has a rule.

Once you're in the arena, only one can survive.

Uncle Feng, does our Ten Thousand Horses Hall really have such a rule?

Yes.

Then I can't really interfere.

My father is not around so I must be a model to everyone.

Before, it was my mistake.

Hope Young Madam can consider the benefit of the majority.

Hero Ye's martial arts is one of the world's best.

Today, you opened our eyes.

It's just that Lord Murong is my Ten Thousand Horses Hall's guest.

Hope young hero can stop it here.

If you are willing to let him go, I can give you any reward that you'll ask.

Right. Right. Right. She can give anything you ask. Can give anything.

What do I want? How about I'll say it while beating you?

I've thought of one for you. See if you can accept it.

Murong Sword Technique brags that with it, one can defeat a hundred enemies.

Today, since you were able to defeat the Murong Sword Technique,

I'll count it as you already defeating 100 enemies in this arena

and let you leave Ten Thousand Horses Hall. What do you think about that?

This...this reasoning seems acceptable.

Fine then. Since Young Madam Ma is begging for you,

then I'll temporarily spare your life today.

Okay.

But listen well. Starting today, no matter what happens,

don't you dare cause Young Madam Ma any suffering.

Or else, I'll be back anytime to give you a beating.

I promise you. I agree to everything you ask.

Annoying Slave! Fu Hongxue!

Fu Hongxue!

Fu Hongxue, come out!

Fu Hongxue, come out!

Ms. Ma, don't shout anymore.

If he's really in the vicinity, he surely have heard you already.

Don't know why but I keep feeling that

Fu Hongxue is not really dead.

That's right. That guy's life is so hard to break. It's unlikely that he'll die in this kind of place.

Kid, stop forcing to hold on already. Just accompany me to drink some wine.

There's still no victor yet.

I knew it. You were secretly studying my technique earlier, isn't it?

I'm not secretly studying your technique. I'm just analyzing their weakness.

Such a joke! How can my techniques have weakness?

There is no perfect technique in this world.

And also, I've already seen the weakness of your technique.

This time, I'll win.

Fine. Let's see how you break my technique.

This... How can this be? How can there be a weakness in my Untraceable Blue Moon Technique?

This can't be. This can't be.

Actually, I never really saw the weakness in your technique.

I intentionally said those words. Because you were so affected by what I've said,

that's why your movement became slower.

Uncle Qin, I've already won.

You must fulfill your promise me. Please take me to charge through the Heaven Path Gate.

Uncle Qin! Uncle Qin!

Uncle Qin, you promised me before that as long as I can beat you, you will take me to charge through the Heaven Path Gate.

Did I promise you? I... My headache is attacking again.

I can't remember already. I can't remember already.

You... How can you go back on your words?

I did go back on my words. What can you do with that?

Fine then. I'll go by myself.

Why are you being so muddleheaded? You can never get through the Heaven Path Gate.

Going through it is suicide.

If I don't try it, how will I know?

Just looking at what happened to my six friends, don't you know it already?

They weren't able to go through doesn't mean I won't be able to go through it.

You... Muddleheaded!

What are you doing?! These are all 100 year old good wines!

So what if it's 100-year old? So what if it's a thousand year old?

Being buried here makes them useless things!

Stop breaking them already! Stop breaking them already!

These... These are all my life!

Rather than living like an ant here, I'd rather die.

If you keep breaking my wine pots, I'll kill you.

My wines!

My wines! My wines!

Wines... My wines...

Uncle Qin, these wines were for the dead.

You are a living person and is even the Spotted Sect's Law Keeper.

You shouldn't be staying here.

Uncle Qin, let's leave together. Let's not care what Heaven Path Gate it is.

You...insist on going. I'll then risk this life

and accompany you to go through it.

Uncle Qin, where are you going?

I couldn't just charge through the Heaven Path Gate empty-handed, right?

I'll go and look for some decent weapons for the two of us.

Just use this time too to recuperate.

The Heaven Path Gate won't be as merciful like me.

Then I'll wait for you in that stone cave.

Stupid slave! Stupid slave, come out!

Weird. This guy wouldn't have went underground and became some Earth God and doesn't want to come out anymore?

It's already late. How about we go back first?

Fu Hongxue, you listen!

You are my slave forever!

In this world, you are not allowed to listen to others and only to my words.

I'm not allowing you to die right now! You better live!

Ms. Ma, I have one question which I don't know if I can ask or not.

Just ask it.

How come I never heard you mention your mother?

My mother died when I was 5 years old. (I think this is a script error and should be 5 years ago...)

May I ask how your mother died?

She was killed by a Ten Thousand Horses Hall maid servant with surname Wen.

What happened?

That maid servant stole my mother's jewelries but she was later found out.

The two of them got into a fight and then she killed my mother.

That simple?

At the start, it was indeed that simple.

But the things that happened afterwards were not that simple.

That maid servant had a daughter which was my closest childhood friend.

I treated her like a real sister.

I even forced my father to accept her as his goddaughter.

It's Cui Nong.

How did you know?

I just love to investigate familial secrets.

Actually, I know that this matter has nothing to do with Cui Nong.

But I don't know why but from that day on,

there seems to be something that went between us.

I can't seem to get it off no matter what I do.

Just 5 years ago, when my mother hasn't died that long yet,

Cui Nong used sedatives to get my father unconscious.

She wanted to make my father put his thumbmark on a document that will make her the main wife.

Within these 5 years, have you went to see her?

In the past 5 years, I've never seen her again.

I know that she's hiding in Nameless Pavilion. There were so many times

that I wanted to go find her and ask her why she did it.

But in the end, I still didn't.

Then within these 5 years, has she ever went back to see you?

The two of us just became like strangers.

Maybe she has some predicaments.

Or, she has something important to do that she can't tell you.

Don't defend her anymore. It's me who trusted the wrong person.

I used to thought that we were the closest people in this world.

But later I realized, I never really knew her.

Just like my mother who trusted that maid servant so much.

But that maid servant eventually killed her just for some jewelries.

Ye Kai... Ye Kai!

Luminous pearl.

Such a precious stone that only a person of royal status can

put it in their mouth when they are buried. Who could this person be?

Do you know what place this is?

It most likely is some king's tomb.

That's right. Look.

Kid, do you want to open this casket?

See who is lying inside this casket?

It's just some decomposing corpse. There's nothing to look at.

What you said is right. What you said is right. This is indeed a royal tomb.

This is the tomb of Ji Gongsheng, the King of Zhou.

When the King You of Zhou was still alive, he was tyrannical and cruel.

Causing everyone to hate him. He was afraid that when he dies, people will disrespect his corpse.

So he made this tomb.

Could this be the owner of this tomb, King You of Zhou Jin Gonghseng?

Then how come he is in here?

Uncle Qin...

was it you?

If the one beneath the stone tablet was King You of Zhou, then who is the one lying inside the casket?
