Legend of the Ancient Sword (Swords of Legends / Gu Jian Qi Tan / 古剑奇谭)

The soul that lies dust-laden among the stars, the sun and the moon

Awakens the helplessness of a delirious nightmare.

Uncovering this destiny's thread of events,

cannot escape this lifetime of loneliness.

Behind lies gloomy haze, before lies a mountain pass

Even if I want to escape, there is no running away

But regardless of how fate governs my life, my persistent heart won't change

No matter how much time passes and how much the world changes

Listening to the forlorn sound of the zither, can't forget what should be forgotten

Mortal relations entrap my youth

Forgive the clear arrogance I've hidden in my heart

Go forth into battle and face the vastness, mightiness of the earth and heaven.

Life is also desolate deeply attracted, like a roaring blaze burning.

The past, watch as I walk once through the ups and downs.

Using the cold blade edge and the zither's solitude write the events of the past and of today

the lonely sword against my fingertips, speak and laugh easily.

Legend of the Ancient Sword (Gu Jian Qi Tan)

Episode 48

The road to Peng Lai is too dangerous.

Shao Gong has deep plans and never expose them. He is definitely not an average person.

When TuSu returns, I will go with you all.

I'm not just TuSu's Senior Brother

and I am also your older brother. The duties of this time is very big.

If you go, the percentage of success would be much greater.

But if we all go to Peng Lai

what's going to happen when the tsunami comes?

Look at these peasants of the disaster

They don't have the strength to protect this place. They need people like you with great magical art skills to protect them

What? Did I said something wrong?

No. First, wait for TuSu to return.

Then we will plan in details.

You go back first.

It's enough that I stay.

I'm not tired.

You still say you are not tired?

It was my fault for not practice enough, that's why I'm like this (weak).

You have not recover from your injuries. You should have stay in Tian Yong City.

You shouldn't have come with me. -Should an important thing, why should I not have come?

Big senior brother, are you tired of me?

How would I?

Ling Duan?

Why are you like this?

I already got kick out of Tian Yong City.

What else can I do?

Fu Qu, is your injury better?

I am already healed.

Good.

Why did you not go home? -Home?

My parents send to me Tian Yong City when I was little.

Not long after that, they both passed away.

What home do I have?

Now that I have been kick out of Tian Yong City.

I became an abandon disciple. Do you know what all the neighbors of the town think of me?

Do you know the feeling of no home to go back to, Ling Yue?

Why have you come here?

I'm no longer a disciple of Tian Yong City

Where I go is none of your business!

I came here to earn money, is that not ok?

This place just went through a tsunami. Everywhere is the remnant of the disaster. You came here to earn money?

I..

You followed us, that's why you are here.

In this crippled condition, I could hardly get away and hide from you guys. Follow you guys?

You guys don't have to worry. I already lost all my martial art energy.

I can't do a thing to you.

and I won't harm TuSu

That is not what we meant.

Take this.

Are you giving to the homeless?

Big Senior Brother, you've once told us

senior & junior brothers have to take care and protect of each other.

Never thought you are so great and forgiving, even to your enemy you use grace to repay evil.

We are not enemies.

You harm your sect brothers and enter into the path of evil.

Until today, you still have not repent?

You stop you glorious grand speech!

Wasn't it, wasn't it because I harmed your junior brother that your Honorable Teacher kicked me out of Tian Yong City?

It was you who envy TuSu and Big Senior Brother.

And your heart conceived evil thoughts and do things without mercy. You still don't know you are wrong?

Fu Qu, the only wrong I have was because I was confused.

and hurt you and control Ling Chuan.

But why did you only know to blame me

and never blame TuSu for killing Zhou Ling? -It was Shao Gong!

He is the killer of Zhao Ling.

No possible. It's not possible.

Aren't they on the same side? -It was us who trusted the wrong person.

It was to frame and harm TuSu. Ouyang Shao Gong

wanted to steal the Sword of Burning Solitude that's why he get close to TuSu.

This tsunami happened because he wanted to rebuilt Peng Lai.

He didn't care about the lives affected by this action.

Ouyang Shao Gong.

I told you guys a long time ago that he is full of trickeries, but you guys won't believe me!

Never thought it is him.

Ouyang Shao Gong.

It was you who murdered Zhao Ling.

I am going to revenge for Zhou Ling right now!

Ling Duan!

I really didn't know my limitation.

In the past I was like that. And now I am still like that!

None of you can do anything about Ouyang Shao Gong.

How could I?

I understand you and Zhou Ling are brothers and want to revenge for him.

But right now Ouyang Shao Gong did not just take one life.

But don't worry. TuSu and Big Senior Brother won't let Zhou Ling died in vain.

They will definitely bring this issue to an end.

And now what you need to do

is to take good care of yourself. -What Fu Qu said is right.

The tsunami will be here soon. You should leave here quickly.

Big Senior Brother, I..

Even though we don't have the same teacher, but we are in the same sect.

I once treated you as my junior brother

Now that you don't have the martial arts energy, and have become an average person

live nicely.

Take good care.

Qing Xue. -TuSu.

TuSu, Big Senior Brother is waiting for you.

Before I left the mountain, Honorable Teacher once said that even though Shao Gong has the power of a celestial spirit.

But his spiritual power is limited.

Even though it's hard to get to Peng Lai

If an epidemic break out in the Jiang Nan City, it would be very scary.

Whether it's scary or if we fail

since he can raise Peng Lai draw out this island, he must have his method.

I won't let him continue like that.

I am only curious. His celestial power is this great.

He could have beat Honorable Teacher and take the Sword of Burning Solitude

He can't do it.

He couldn't beat your Honorable Teacher.

Since I know his true identity, I have been making think hypothetically

Shao Gong is the transformation of the celestial spirit

His magical power is from the celestial spirit

But his body is mortal and cannot take such great power.

Thus, he becomes old and weak and therefore cannot do much.

That's right. Our magical power came from our own practice.

And with his mortal body, there is no way he could bear it.

Then how come he can bear it now?

Through the Jade Ornament.

The Jade Ornament is a talisman that can absorb spiritual energy.

Back then Shao Gong did not have the Jade Ornament, so he could only do what he can.

So he disguised as a disciple of Tian Yong City to get into Mt. Kun Lun.

But now he has the Jade Ornament. After it was restored,, now he could fully use his spiritual power.

It's too dangerous for you guys to go to Peng Lai.

Why don't I first go and report to Honorable Teacher. -No, you can't do that.

For hundreds of years, Tian Yong City is Honorable Teacher's home.

Honorable Teacher has used up a lot of his cultivate energy to heal me and put a seal on me.

From back then when murderous aura invasion until now, he cannot not retreat.

If we ask Honorable Teacher to come out and battle with Shao Gong

If something happens, how am I going to deal with this?

But the Sect Leader will definitely do something about this.

That's right TuSu.

Take us to Peng Lai with you.

No. Fu Qu, you have just been injured

All the senior & junior brothers grew up together in Tian Yong City. Even though a lot of people could get the task done faster

But they are no match to Shao Gong. I won't let them go to their death like that.

But I can't let you go like that.

Don't worry. I have a method to beat Shao Gong.

What method?

Honorable Teacher already taught me. You guys can relax and not worry.

If you don't explain clearly, you can't go.

Big brother Ling Yue, trust us.

Shao Gong has said before that no matter what happen, we cannot let anything happen to you.

He will protect me and not let me die.

Isn't his purpose is to take the Sword of Burning Solitude?

Could there be some special connection between you and Shao Gong?

It is that.

You guys don't ask anymore.

I will start immediately and go to Peng Lai.

I go with you! -I go with you! -I go with you! -I go with you!

SuSu, you've promised me.

I must go with you.

I will go with Qing Xue. I have responsibility for this issue.

Beside, I know Shao Gong a lot more than you.

Qian Shang, then I will bother you.

TuSu, since Lan Sheng is going

I could also help. I have to go too.

Xiang Ling, you have not recover

It's very dangerous there. You shouldn't go.

Why can't I go?

Xiang Ling, it's too dangerous.

TuSu gege?

You guys are so hateful!

Senior Brother, according to the order, you and Fu Qu stay on shore

to protect the peasants

This is a greater responsibility than to deal with Shao Gong.

Okay.

Xiang Ling, do you remember the first time we met?

I remember.

It was in the Old Moon Temple.

No.

I am talking about when we were little.

TuSu gege, you remember the things in the past?

No matter if I remember or not.

I say that I will always treat you as my little sister.

I know, TuSu gege.

I am not asking for anything.

I just hope that I could do something for you.

You have always been so good to me and take care of me.

Xiang Ling,

Just like Qian Shang protect Qing Xue

I also want my little sister

to live peacefully and happily.

Xiang Ling
