"Let me ask you," "I've heard that you'II cut off an inch of your sword every time you've killed someone, is that true?" "One's reputation is justified," "but often rumors are rumors." "I won't cut off the sword myself, instead I'd jab my sword into the opponent's bone," "let it break off an inch, and leave it in the wound." "You're too arrogant." "Not exactly."

"You will listen to my uncle, but you must listen to me." "Why?" "Because my father" "left the gambling house to me," "I'm the real boss." "My uncle only helps me to manage it." "After I've found..." "Your husband." "I got it!" "We'II provide you with food, lodging and clothing." "The most important thing is, you must take Rui Xiang gambling House as your home." "That could never be." "You're the boss, you eat ribs, and I eat the bones." "You..." "You wear silk and satin," "I wear linen." "If I have to stay here for years," "I will go crazy!" "Don't worry, a real man will pay his debt." "I'd never sneak away." "I'II think of all the ways to find the gold and silver, to pay back for my wisdom." "That's difficult." "You're much better, just take some herb medicine later." "Yes..." "Come in." "Sit down." "Doctor Guo, please save me, I'm Lian San." "Sure..." "You're carrying such a good haIberd, you must be a martial arts expert." "You flatter me!" "I think your left collar bone is wounded." "Impressive." "I've been to countless doctors, and none of them could cure." "I heard that only you, the killer Doctor could cure me." "You were wrong about one thing," "I'm not the killer Doctor, my surname is Guo." "But you were right about one thing." "I'm the only one who could pull the broken sword out from your bone." "Then Doctor Guo..." "Who's the swordsman?" "The gallant Tuan Changqing, deadly Breaking Sword." "Oh, it's him." "Hurry." "Hurry."

"Tomorrow evening, by the flying Goose slope." "A death duel orjust a trial?" "Haven't boss Li told you?" "I've bought two coffins for my challengers already." "Yes, he mentioned that." "And the opponents are..." "They're quite weII-known." "The Sword Spirits Duo." "The Sword Spirits Duo." "One against two?" "Yes." "Impressive." "Master Tuan, be careful." "Right..." "Be careful." "Thank you." "Have you fed my horse?" "Yes, you can leave anytime." "Oh boy, this ruby is quite good!" "It must worth something." ""flying Goose slope"" "I've prepared for your burial arrangements." "It's simple, I had to do it in a rush, please forgive me." "One inch is broken after the death of an expert, no one will be spared under the deadly Breaking Sword." "What a disappoint, Sword Spirits Duo!" "But it's alright." "I'm glad you could learn the power of my broken sword before you're dead." ""Lixiang brothel"" "Here she comes..." "Don't push..." "You've had a Iong trip." "Hurry." "Come...gentlemen," "Miss Liu will be here to serve you from now on, please come often to support." "please rest upstairs." "Have you sent out all the invitations?" "Yes." "They are all people with power, wealth and status." "I heard there's a master living in Gaosheng Inn." "You must be referring to the gallant Tuan Changqing," "Master Tuan, right?" "I sent him the first invitation." "Retrieve the invitation." "Have you gone mad?" "Why?" "We should try to make some money off him." "difficult." "I heard that he's very arrogant." "also that he never goes to a brothel, so can't say if he'II come." "What about the famous doctor, Mr. Guo?" "The philanthropist?" "A Iot less likely to come!" "He's the real rich person, mama." "Don't forget about him, send an invitation to him." "Don't panic, Brother Lian." "When you've noticed some changes on you, it means that you've recovered." "What kind of changes?" "That's hard to say." "You'II see though." "But it's not harmful." "I swear I'II get even." "Master." "There's a new lady at Lixiang brothel." "She's sent me an invitation..." "tell the butler to send a present over." "Yes." "Master Wu, you're very nice to Master Lian San." "And his halberd, it's all cleaned up nice and shiny!" "You must take a liking to his martial arts expertise." "Master Guo..." "please have a seat inside." "Brother Lian." "They are all my friends here," "let me introduce you." "There's no need to, you should know that being a hanger-on isn't easy, you have to risk your life." "You know?" "You know what we're talking about?" "Leave if you're scared." "Don't." "please stay..." "Give that to me." "I can't, Master Tuan." "Why not?" "Lixiang brothel wants to retrieve the invitation." "What for?" "Miss Liu said that the guests tonight are all nobles and powerful people, you will behave badly before her guests." "The invitation." "What a prostitute." ""Lixiang brothel"" "Master Tuan..." "please forgive us..." "please sit down..." "please sit." "Master Tuan, please sit down." "No, it's fine, I wasn't invited anyway." "I'd leave right away if she isn't what she claims." "I don't need to dismount." "Master Tuan." "Say no more." "Drag the horse out." "Set up a chair, quick." "Xiao Dao." "What are you doing?" "Xiao Dao, you want to sneak over to Lixiang brothel?" "You can't, it's busy at the gambling house." "Don't scare off my crickets." "Never mind, Xiao Dao." "I know you can't wait to go over... to take a look at that rich and pretty prostitute, eh?" "I..." "Too bad you can't go tonight." "Can I go to sleep then?" "Go ahead." "Are you leaving, Master Tuan?" "There's someone upstairs." "Master Tuan." "Someone's upstairs, lady." "Thief." "What's going on..." "Master Tuan?" "It's unclean here." "I've caught a thief." "Who's the thief?" "What did I steal?" "When you take something without asking, it's stealing." "What did I steal?" "gambling tiles." "That's mine." "Nothing's missing, Iet him go." "Miss Liu, you have a Iot of pretty jewelry!" "I've never seen anything like these." "I'm your neighbor." "alright..." "leave..." "please sit down, Master Tuan." "You play the pipa well, but I just wasn't in the mood." "At least tonight" "I've finally met you in person." "Overrated." "please stay, Master Tuan." "Why did you take back my invitation?" "That's my strategy," "Let me apologize to you by this cup of wine." "please." "No, thanks." "We'II have a drink later if it's fate." "If not, Iet's leave it here." "Master Tuan." "Why did he leave, my lady?" "He's still angry about the invitation." "Are you alright, Brother Lian?" "Are you alright?" "Master, Miss Liu of Lixiang brothel is here." "alright..." "Everything fine?" "Excuse me." "You must be..." "Master Guo." "Yes, and you must be Miss Liu." "please have a seat." "What do you want to see me for?" "Parents take care at home;" "out there, it's our friends!" "Without your presence that night," "Lixiang brothel was dimly lit, and I'd have had no face." "Not at all..." "She looks familiar, she can't be." "Master Guo, what are you mumbling about?" "Where do you live, Miss Liu?" "The West Chamber of Lixiang brothel, second floor, you're always welcome, Master Guo." "I didn't mean your address," "I meant you're originally from..." "Huaibei's Tangan." "Tangan?" "And Liu Yinxu is your real name?" "That's my stage name, my surname is Chen." "Chen family of Tangan." "Right, the Chens live in front of the temple in Tangan." "Have you been there, Master Guo?" "Never..." "Who else is in your family?" "I have an older brother, he..." "What about him?" "In jail." "Your brother's in jail?" "That's a terrible thing to say." "He's working as a guard in jail." "A guard." "My mistake, forgive me." "Master Guo, I'II go back to Lixiang brothel now." "Sure..." "Do visit me when you're free." "definitely..." "Master Guo, you've taken good care of us in the past years." "well said..." "But there's one thing." "It's okay, don't bring it up" "Why not?" "That Lian person hides inside all day," "I don't know what's so special about him," "I must find out." "No matter what, we want to have a duel with him." "What's the point?" "call that Lian person out." "Yes." "please...don't be so serious." "Brother Lian, are you sure?" "You haven't yet recovered." "Stop it." "Stop it." "You're all my friends, there's no need for this." "It's bleeding." "Hey." "Hey." "Hey." "Hey." "Me?" "Are you calling me?" "What's your name?" "Xiao Dao, we've met before." "I need to ask a favor," "I'II give you one hundred taels of silver." "One hundred?" "With that kind of money," "I'II sleep with you if you ask me to." "You..." "I meant it." "Is that all you can see?" "Money?" "Notjust what I see, but all I can think of is money." "That's easy enough." "Xiaoqin, go get the money." "I want those in five taeIs a piece." "Miss Liu," "I'II make sure the job is done." "Xiao Dao." "Don't you have anything better to do?" "What are you standing up on the tree for?" "Don't worry." "Get back to work!" "Come here..." "Stop running, give that to me." "I've told you before," "I'd try my best to find gold and silver." "I custom-made this chest," "I've done my calculation." "After I've filled up this chest," "I couId go free." "You..." "bracelet!" "Let me borrow this for a while." "Let me borrow this..." "What are you doing?" "Give that back to me." "I will, later." "I'II return this." "Buy back your freedom?" "Tuan." "people say that you're gallant and dashing, but I don't think so." "Overrated." "Why don't you pass me your name?" "I can be the Dashing Xiao Dao." "Do you know the old teaching, watch what you speak." "Don't lose your life because of what you spoke." "Looking for me?" "What's your rush?" "It's a gambling tile set two wins out of three games." "I hear that ruby on your horse is pretty precious." "If I win, it's mine, I'IIgiveyousomeinformation." "And if I lose," "I'II give you the information for free, what do you think?" "You take me for a fool?" "It's fine if you think I'm a fool." "The piece of information will interest you, after you've heard it." "You'II stare, and have a seizure, and you'II have to kill someone." "So?" "Are you in or out?" "In." "I've a feeling that I'm lucky." "After I've met you and Miss Liu," "I think my luck has changed." "Come on." "Even, your pick." "Odd, my pick." "Six." "Six too." "Six and seven." "Six and eight." "What did I tell you?" "Come on...again." "Even." "You." "Eight." "Nine, I win." "The last game." "Odd." "Your pick." "Look." "Mine's bigger." "I'm sure I'II win, go on." "Look at this." "But I've..." "I've won." "Speak up." "It's fate." "I'm destined to be rich and gallant, and you're destined to be poor and shabby." "Speak." "You should tell me the piece of information." "Speak up." "Compared to Ms Liu's bed yours doesn't look so comfy." "I slept with her last night." "She's quite a lady, smooth skin, so comfortable." "calm down," "I think you're going to have a seizure soon." "What's this?" "A bracelet from Miss Liu, you can ask her yourself." "Did you give this... jade bracelet to Xiao Dao?" "No, I only gave him a hundred taels of silver." "More." "I've over estimated you." "You slept with a gambling den's bouncer?" "If you don't believe me, we can ask him to clear this up." "You shouldn't pay so much attention on such a trivial matter." "Master Tuan." "I want to tell you a true story about a woman." "Go on." "I was orphaned when I was very little, and I was entrusted to the care of a lady." "My brother has been wandering around." "But he would show up during festivals, brought me presents, and stayed with me for a few days." "I had no idea how he made his living." "until one day..." "Brother." "Yinggang, come..." "You shouldn't risk it by coming here." "I had to come here, security has stepped up." "Look." "The reward on you has been raised to a hundred grand." "Dead or alive." "Damn it!" "What's the big deal?" "The officers are useless, they can't catch me." "Yinggang, isn't three million gold taeIs enough?" "That's enough, I'II listen to you." "I've put the gold in Jufu bank in the capital." "They are trustworthy." "But I do worry about one thing." "Are you saying that someone will sell me out?" "What's going on with you and that lady called Lotus?" "You should know that I've been on the run," "I had no time to see her." "You're right." "Run, brother!" "They are here to catch you." "Leave." "She is..." "Go!" "Run!" "No, we'II go together." "Brother." "Yinggang." "Brother." "Brother, don't be so silly." "The one who turned you in was the..." "killer Doctor, whom you treated as an older brother." "That's impossible." "He's always treated me as his own brother." "I've found Lotus at Cuihong brothel, as you told me to." "Her tongue was cut and she's gone crazy." "So you see, she didn't set you up." "Think about it." "If it wasn't the killer Doctor... why wouldn't he be here trying to save you?" "He's rich." "Don't worry, I swear" "I'II find him no matter what I have to do." "Master Tuan, people cry because they're sad." "But tears don't mean that you're telling the truth." "I've met the killer Doctor myself." "Did he recognize you?" "No." "I beg you." "Miss Liu, you've got the wrong man." "I'm not a cold blooded killer." "I won't kill for money." "My broken sword is only meant for those who defy me." "I know." "You're still mad at me about the invitation, right?" "I didn't know that you could be so narrow minded, just as your broken sword." "Other than being emotionless, harsh, and arrogant, what else do you have?" "I hate women who criticize men, especially when they criticize me." "Tuan Changqing, you only think of yourself." "You'II never help others, because you're the most selfish of all." "Master Tuan, that's no way to treat a lady." "Be gentler, got it?" "Miss Liu, could you return the jade bracelet to me?" "please?" "Put it on the pole." "Go on." "Thanks." "You're welcome." "See you, Master Tuan." "A large debt, which you can't clear... even cutting off your flesh  bones." "gold is dad, silver is mom." "help Xiao Dao to find the gold mine, so that I can buy back my freedom." "Xiao Dao..." "Coming." "Hurry." "Xiao Dao..." "What's the matter?" "There's a gambler who lost money, he's making quite a scene, it's messy." "really?" "Hurry!" "Come out." "Coming." "help me out, Boss Luo." "You must save me." "I'm very sorry." "Have you heard that since I've moved here, it's been peaceful around here" "The losers will lose, and the winners will win." "No one has even tried anything." "old man, you want trouble?" "Not at all." "I've lost all my money, all I have now is this piece of ivory antique;" "Guess it's worth at Ieast 4-5 hundred taels of silver." "I wanted to pawn this to Boss Luo for 200 taeIs." "If it's worth what you said, rather... you'd sell it to an antique shop and be back to gamble." "I can't wait." "alright, just one hundred taels of silver, this is a giveaway." "Five hundred to one hundred, this is fishy." "You..." "One hundred taels of silver?" "Yes." "It's not stolen?" "Of course not!" "Can't you tell that it's worth something?" "Fine..." "I'II take it." "You will?" "And the money?" "I'II go get it." "Okay." "You got lucky, young man." "You know your antiques!" "You've earned four hundred taels just like that." "If I didn't need the money so urgently to gamble," "I wouldn't have given you such a good deal." "If you win, I want my bonus." "Of course." "So?" "Done." "Leave now, don't come back again." "Again?" "I don't want to be killed." "Xiao Dao..." "What?" "Wash your face, calm yourself down." "Wash my face?" "What for?" "No matter what happens, don't go mad!" "Just get to the point." "I heard from the other gamblers that the old man is a con artist." "He travels around looking for victims." "You shouldn't have bought that." "Are you saying that I was duped?" "This doesn't cost one hundred taels?" "It's fake." "Fake?" "I don't believe it." "I'm going to talk to the boss of the antique shop." "He's gone." "It's over." "You think you take on an alias, and you can hide from the evil you've done?" "What are you trying to imply?" "A decent man won't change his name." "Do you remember Chen Yinggang who's in jail because of you?" "Never heard of him." "Master Tuan, watch your manners." "I've been treating you with good manners, how could you insult me like that?" "You've gone too far." "Stop playing." "You're resting, there's no need to be here." "I've heard about the hangers-on here." "I guess it's them." "Yes, they're all my friends." "They are all righteous martial arts experts, they've made their names heard just like you." "Excuse me..." "I thought there's only one purpose to be a hanger-on, that is, do dirty work after accepting money." "As a doctor, what do you need these martial arts experts here for?" "Why don't you make some poets, writers as friends?" "You saw this day coming." "Master Tuan, you can insult me all you want, but you can't insult my friends." "They are all cynical swordsmen, not common soldiers." "Hypocrite." "Stop it." "Stop it." "What kind of a person you take me for?" "Your sword." "It's not the right time." "Though you could try, but" "I must warn you though." "Out the sheath comes the sword, bloodshed will follow!" "Master Tuan." "Move away." "Stop it." "Don't you want to live?" "If I didn't stop in time, you would be dead." "You can do whatever you want, as long as I can stop this aimless fight." "Master Tuan." "It's my fault if anyone's hurt here." "Master Tuan." "Have you fallen into someone's trap?" "Was I tricked?" "This is ridiculous." "When I was in the same business," "I stole things like a mouse." "Look at you!" "In a team, and armed." "Even I miss sometime." "A mark for you." "What's wrong?" "Who were they?" "It's fine, mama." "Just a few thieves, our neighbor has fended them off." "It's fine, go back to your rooms." "Thank you for your help." "No problem." "Just let me know if I couId be of service," "I want to make some pocket money." "alright." "You're very generous." "I've a job." "Say, it's a chance to make a Iot of money." "I'II do it." "tell me." "Do you know where Guo Tiansheng lives?" "Of course I do." "He's a famous doctor, a rich man, and a kind man who helps the weak." "I want you to kill that hypocrite for me." "Who would expect a guard of a gambling den could be so skilled?" "Master Guo, that kid is a problem." "alright, we will try to bribe him, if it still won't work, then kill him." "Yes." "will you do it for five hundred taels?" "Yes." "I really want the gold, but I fear that I'II kill a good man," "I will go to hell for that." "My brother's in jail because of him, and I have no idea how my brother is now." "I was alone and helpless, ended up in a brothel." "I've told all this to Tuan Changqing, but he was aloof and just left." "You're my only hope." "You should have come to me first, you'd have had a better chance." "Miss Liu, what you've just told me, is it all true?" "Yes." "alright, I'II do it." "Keep the reward safe." "If I get killed, please pick a good coffin, and a set of nice clothes for my burial." "You don't have to go." "Because I've never worn a nice set of clothes, or lived in a nice house, please." "I'II go out at the front." "Stand still." "Liu Yinxu is a complicated woman." "What did she see you for?" "For a good chat." "Do I have to tell you everything?" "Stop pretending, I know it all." "She hired you to kill someone." "That's right, to kill Guo Tiansheng." "You can't go." "So you haven't killed him." "I had no reason to." "It's the beginning of a new era, the era of the dagger, not the sword." "Brat..." "Listen to my advice." "Stay in the gambling den, you might be poor, but you can sleep soundly at night." "It's better than to get killed for no reason." "I heard that Miss Luo of the gambling den is very nice to you, you're lucky!" "Watch your speech." "I'm very superstitious," "I never talk or go near a woman before I kill." "You're doing this on purpose?" "I can't let you kill the innocent." "After you've heard my version, you will..." "Shut up, don't block my way." "Not bad!" "This style is called, "The dog pees"" "You forced me to do this." "alright, money talks." "If you won't go now," "listen to what I'II have to say," "I'II double your pay." "Say that again." "If you won't go now," "I'II double your pay." "alright!" "A promise is a promise." "Go." "I was duped," "I can't let you walk into a trap." "You mean Guo Tiansheng doesn't know Miss Liu?" "alright, Iet's not talk about those." "Let's play a drinking game." "Sure." "A crab with eight legs, pointy heads, size like this." "Eyes popped, neck draws back." "crawling over the sand." "Which of us should drink?" "Six, who should drink?" "Three, who should drink?" "Six, I should drink." "alright." "I'II never say no to alcohol." "Come on..." "Come on..." "A person with your skills is hard to come by, my friend." "Too bad you don't know the principles in life." "How?" "We're the same." "No, we're not." "You can'tjust kill someone for money." "Yes." "Maybe I was too severe, forgive me." "It's difficult to know the principles in life, but you will learn slowly." "Yes..." "I remember everything you say." "It's late, hand it over." "What?" "What you've promised, double my pay." "You haven't changed." "Of course." "Sure." "These are money orders." "Have you seen them?" "Do you know how to use them?" "Of course." "These are money orders." "Have you seen them?" "Do you know how to use them?" "You can't exchange money with papers like that." "Xiao Dao, wake up!" "Stop walking into traps!" "As long as I don't fall into your trap." "Tuan Changqing is a renowned swordsman, unlike that old con artist, or those unethical merchants who issued bogus money orders." "Since you're here, call your uncle." "Give me back my contract." "I'II be free tonight, and I can go wherever I please tomorrow." "We have lots of money here, it will last you for life." "That's yours, not mine." "Can't you turn this place to be yours?" "You're saying, you and me..." "Thanks but no thanks." "I understand what you're getting at." "Then again," "I've always earned a living on my own, you don't want me to live off a woman, right?" "Fine!" "We will go our separate ways." "alright, call your uncle." "You..." "You...you want me to stay here the rest of my Iife?" "Why wouldn't you listen?" "Fine, what's that?" "The well." "The well...alright, you're doomed." "No." "Put me down." "Xiao Dao." "help." "help." "Master Tuan." "What are you doing?" "Get up, I want to speak to you." "Miss." "What's it?" "Master Tuan." "It's fine..." "What's wrong?" "It's nothing." "Leave, you can leave." "Are you alright?" "I'm fine, you can go." "Miss Liu, you've tricked me into dealing with Guo Tiansheng, and now you've asked Xiao Dao?" "fortunately I stopped him in time, or someone will be dead." "tell me, why must you kill him?" "At least you went, I should thank you." "But from the way you speak, you were convinced by him?" "He doesn't know your brother, and he's not the killer Doctor." "How could I kill him?" "You used me." "Don't you have any opinions for yourself?" "If you doubt me, why did you go there?" "you've offended both sides now." ""Prison of Huaian Court"" "Chief, you have a visitor." "Who?" "He wouldn't say." "You're quite proud." "This is a prison, you should have thought twice." "I know all about you," "Fan Fei, you're the custodial officer." "You're an officer no matter what." "In that case, you should drop your weapon, and tell me your name." "Yes." "Hand it over." "You don't need to know who I am." "I just want to get a prisoner out." "No, a country has its laws." "How could I stretch the Iaw, being a custodial officer?" "You can't stretch the Iaw?" "No." "A money order for one thousand taels." "Send him over as soon as I'm done." "Now, you can stretch the Iaw." "Who is he?" "Chen Yinggang." "No, he's an important criminal." "I know." "And you've made a Iot of cash because of him." "The killer Doctor has told me about you." "Fine." "Chief." "Open the door." "Yes." "Chen Yinggang, someone's here to get you out." "Did my brother send you?" "Are you Chen Yinggang?" "Yes, why?" "Has my brother found his conscience finally?" "That he's spending money to get me out?" "But it's too late now." "Don't waste anymore time, Chen Yinggang." "follow me." "Don't run." "Listen." "If you won't take Chen Yinggang with you," "I'II let you walk free." "This is a good deal, run!" "Go!" "Fan Fei, you asked for this." "Go!" "Let us go, swordsman..." "Fan Fei." "Go!" "You as a custodial officer, being corrupt collaborating with cunning citizens, aIaw-breaker." "You should be killed." "Going back on your word after taking my moneyorder!" "Not only that you wouldn't let Chen Yinggang go, and you wanted to take all the money." "Fine, I'II buy an ear first." "My ear..." "Brother Lian..." "I'm here to see you." "It's not locked, please come in." "Don't worry, Doctor Guo, you should be happy." "You've saved my Iife, and your medicine has advanced my skills." "I've changed." "Brother Lian, look, after you've taken my medicine, you've changed." "My benefactor, please let me thank you." "please get up." "congratulations." "Brother Lian, I think in this world, everything's unreal except friendship." "The first time I saw you," "I knew that you're a righteous person." "That's why I saved you." "Thanks." "You're welcome..." "This invitation..." "It was sent by Tuan Changqing." "A banquet invitation at Lixiang brothel tomorrow night." "Do you think I should go?" "Even if you avoid it this time, he'II send you an invitation another time." "I think he's set up something to deal with you," "Liu Yinxu is like a tumor on you." "She's a problem, because she wasn't killed last time." "I know..." "From the way it looks," "Tuan Changqing is on Liu Yinxu's side." "Then..." "To upkeep an army for 1000 days, to use it for an hour." "Brother Lian, don't say that." "I wouldn't even think about that, please don't misunderstand." "Don't worry, you can only relax after this feast." "I wish." "wealth and prosperity on the right, hell on the Ieft." "Left." "But I want to know whether you three can tie me up, or I can tie you three up." "No matter what," "I was born nosy." "It hurts." "You attack me from the back." "Master Tuan, please come out." "You shouldn't have, there's no need to invite me here for a feast." "You've booked the whole brothel, and set it up like this." "You'd never have thought that I'm still alive." "Quite unexpected." "You're still alive." "That's because..." "I want to see how poisonous your heart is." "I've always treated you as my older brother, how could you sell me out?" "simple enough." "Human beings die in pursuit of wealth" "Three million taels of gold, it's better to be spent by one than two." "You..." "Chen Yinggang, there's no point in talking to him, do it!" "Tuan Changqing, you should know that... there's always someone who's more skilled than you." "If you can walk out this place alive, I'd say that you're very able." "Don't worry, I've prepared your coffin for you." "Brother Yinggang." "Brother Yinggang." "Shut up, I'II take care of you in a minute." "It's you!" "I must get even!" "Right, Tuan Changqing." "I want to get even too, for spilling tea on my face." "Brother Lian, it's up to you." "The killer Doctor saved your life." "That's right, he's my Iife saver." "And you're our common enemy." "Master Tuan." "Lady." "Master Tuan." "Master Tuan." "Brother Lian, revive..." "Revive..." "Are you alright?" "Go!" "Lady." "Go!" "Tuan Changqing, you're useless, can't you even fight an old man?" "Look at me!" "Leave, now!" "You're not his match." "The kid from the gambling den." "Come here." "old man." "Come here." "So you're not an old man." "Xiao Dao." "Don't panic, look at me." "Just a test." "Bad tiles." "Tuan Changqing, you call yourself a swordsman, don't you know that "the longer the stronger"?" "Don't be so sure." "Don't you know that the shorter the scarier?" "alright, I'II pick a Iong one." "Is this long enough?" "Let me." "The longer the better." "careful." "Are you alright?" "I'm fine." "Xiao Dao." "Xiao Dao." "Remember, buy me a new set of clothes, and a nice..." "Many undiscovered talents." "The broken sword gIitters like frost and snow." "The little dagger begins to shine." "Their reputation is known everywhere." "The little dagger begins to shine." "Their reputation is known everywhere."
