to wear men's cIothes

the next time I visit the Peony PaviIion.

Now I know

you're not shy around women.

You're not shy either.

How do you know?

You knew I was watching you bathe,

yet you said nothing.

You saved my Iife.

You can Iook aII you pIease.

I thought you were hot as fire.

In fact, you're cooI as water.

I don't know you weII enough.

I reaIIy care for you.

A pIayboy Iike you, are you ever for reaI?

What if I am this time?

Are our men cIose by?

I'm sure today's fighting has fooIed Mei.

Our men wiII ease off from now on.

Good. That'II save me some arrows.

Any cIues?

Not yet.

Don't Iet her see through you.

Don't worry.

I never faiI at seducing a woman.

She trusts me.

I warn you, don't faII for her.

What do you mean faII?

FaII into bed?

Like her father, she must be very cunning.

Don't Iet her fooI you.

Don't be absurd.

I'm in controI.

I have to get back now.

Don't turn a game into reaIity

and ruin our pIan.

Who cares, as Iong as the pIan works.

ShaII we rest for a whiIe?

I smeII fIowers.

You toId me

you'd bring me to where reaI fIowers grow.

Which is the most beautifuI?

How do I Iook?

Pretty as a fIower.

SoIdiers are approaching.

I'm on your side.

You?

I am a Captain of the County.

A captain?

Nonsense.

You are the bastard who broke the jaiI.

You're wounded. Is it serious?

No.

Was it someone from the 'FIying Daggers'?

It's not IikeIy.

Then who?

I don't know.

He's gone.

I guess he doesn't want to reveaI himseIf.

This time, I beIieve that you're for reaI.

You've done enough for me.

PIease Ieave.

Don't worry about me.

We've come this far.

I can't Ieave you now.

I hope you're not seriousIy wounded.

We agreed there wouId be no more fights.

Why did government soIdiers turn up?

The generaI sent them.

They don't know you.

The generaI?

How did the generaI get invoIved?

This case is important.

I had to report it.

The generaI is taking over.

The soIdiers didn't have to be

that aggressive.

The generaI ordered it.

He said we need reaI bIood

to draw the 'FIying Daggers' out.

Even if the bIood is mine?

Jin,

the soIdiers' Iives and our Iives

are worth nothing to him.

You don't know how I feIt

as I kiIIed our own men.

I feeI worse. I am tortured.

You?

I truIy regret

taking on this mission.

I've foIIowed you aII the way.

Endured many sIeepIess nights.

My heart grows heavy

when I think about what Iies ahead.

Is there no other way to do this?

The generaI said:

It's the onIy way to expose

the 'FIying Daggers'.

Jin, you shouId know,

there are more soIdiers ahead.

What!

The generaI sent them.

They don't know you either.

You must stop them.

There is nothing I can do.

The order given to these soIdiers

is 'Fight to kiII'.

If you don't kiII them

they wiII kiII you.

Take care.

I quit!

Where have you been?

I have a question for you.

What question?

Are you for reaI?

What do you mean?

Do you feeI anything for me?

Don't take this so seriousIy.

I want to know.

I'm a free spirit,

Iike the wind, aIways moving.

The wind never thinks too much.

I want the wind to stop and think.

The wind cannot stop.

Not even for me?

The wind breezes through without a trace.

Now you understand

why I'm caIIed Wind.

Fine, go and be the wind.

I don't need you anymore!

I don't care if you're true or not,

I have to leave.

I want to end this.

Are you going alone?

I'd like to be the wind for once.

Where will you go?

- It's you.

- Go.

You said the wind could not stop.

A playful wind stops at will.

You shouldn't have come back.

I came back,

for you.

Nia!

Mei, you're back.

Who will believe the madam of

Peony Pavilion

is the leader of

the Flying Daggers!

I behaved badly that day.

Please forgive me.

Did I look like a real madam?

Very much so.

- What do you think of Mei?

- What do you mean?

I mean her personality,

of course.

- She's passionate.

- Go on.

She may be blind,

but she's very bright.

Hardly anyone can match her.

Not even I.

Do you care for her?

You are asking?

A man and a girl traveling all alone,

what else could I be talking about?

Mei is a rare beauty.

I care for her a lot.

Then, I shall act as the matchmaker

for you two to marry.

Marriage is a big deal.

This is too sudden.

She's not a good match

for you?

On the contrary.

Mei is from a respectable family.

I'm hust a humble swordsman.

Our old leader loved

his daughter dearly.

Now I've become the new leader,

it's my duty to find her a good husband.

I haven't been able to find anyone

within the 'Flying Daggers'

who would be a better choice than you.

What do you say?

I accept your offer.

Our House is much obliged to you.

You've done us a great favour.

Please accept my gratitude.

With much pleasure.

What is going on?

- Where are our soldiers?

- They were ambushed.

You were both plotting to catch me

by following Mei.

You're not blind?

Are you the old leader's daughter?

He has a blind daughter.

She doesn't know martial arts,

so I pretended to be her.

If you had known the truth,

would you have followed her here?

It's all been an act.

Who are you, really?

My name is Mei.

I'm hust one of many girls

in the House of Flying Daggers.

That's enough.

Take him out.

You wait here.

I want to finish him off myself.

Move.

Stop.

Do you have anything to say?

You're not Nia, the new leader.

You're right.

Of course I'm not Nia.

Nia wouldn't show herself

so easily.

Who are you then?

That is not important.

Nia sent me to finish this matter.

You've done a good hob, Leo.

We've never met before,

but I know you by reputation.

Three years ago,

in the government.

You've accomplished

much in that role.

I failed to protect our old leader

from being assassinated.

Nia knew that you were away

on duty.

There was nothing you could do.

I'm grateful for her understanding.

We need to win this battle

against the government troops.

You and Mei have successfully

set up a trap for the general.

Well done.

I'll report to Nia and

have you rewarded.

It's my duty.

Please tell Nia

the general has led

all his best soldiers towards us.

Be careful.

Don't worry.

Nia has a good plan.

- There is one thing I don't understand.

- What's that?

Who sent Mei on this mission?

Nia did.

Has Nia ever considered

my feelings?

What do you mean?

I haven't seen Mei

for three years.

Now I have to watch her flirt

with another man.

It's not the first time

Mei's used her beauty to aid our cause.

I've heard about your feelings

for her.

Do you still love her?

We're facing a battle that will decide

the fate of the 'Flying Daggers'.

The troops are closing in.

This is not the time for love.

All right.

I will let you see Mei.

You haven't changed.

I'm still Mei.

It's been three years.

Finally, we're alone together.

I know.

You saved me during

the battle with the soldiers.

Thank you.

You don't need to thank me.

I would do anything for you.

I know.

You've risked everything
