Go with him!

Chang Hsien

I hate you!

Bully!

Be careful!

Bully, gel up!

I am stuck

I want to see their corpses!

Douse the fire!

Watch out for the grenades!

Long live His Majesty!

Please be seated!

Ladies and gentlemen.

This century's greatest miracle is upon us.

A divine army will descend.

And destroy our enemies.

Restoring His Majesty to the throne.

Here comes our Imperial Sage.

My men are all over this place.

If your magic fails to work

I'll offer his head

to the mighty spirits.

Now.

Guardians of the spiritual worlds.

Rise under my command

warriors and horses

from the grass and beans.

Come forth!

In the name of heaven and earth

I summon thunderbolts and lightnings.

Destroy thy enemy

with fire and blaze.

Abracadabra!

Conjure.

Bastard!

Why is he throwing beans at us?

Idiots! This is fake!

This magic is amazing!

Commander Liu, what's going on?

You'd said he was a real sorcerer.

Creating an army by magic?

You must be joking.

Something wrong! Forget it.

Let's go.

Wait!

If magic really exists in this world

I know that everyone

must hope for miracles.

Just have faith.

Your dreams...

will come true.

It's a movie!

"Director by Chang Hsien."

"Starring:
Bully Lei, Liu Yin."

What is it?

Movie is fake.

Don't be fooled.

Don't be serious!

Why are they still alive?

Hurry up.

Don't break it

I want to see their corpses.

Douse the fire!

Watch out for the grenades!

Go.

Liu Kun-shan

let me make your dreams come true.

Baby

I love you...

Are you hungry?

My dream has finally come true...

Mine too.

Where's my dream?

- My dream...

- My dream?

The 7 Wonders create illusions.

Only through hard work

can dreams be realized

I've worked hard all my life!

But you took the wrong path.

Your dreams will end up nightmares.

Liu!

The day has come...

to eradicate all evil!

Kill!

Master.

The show is almost over.

Just open fire!

Even without wine, life intoxicates us.

Love, hate, fame, fortune.

Life is like a play.

Magicians can make counterfeits

as good as real

but they can never alter a woman's heart

I'm not being arrogant,

but I know my mother best.

One angry look

my father turns white as a ghost.

Grandpa.

Let's go watch the last scene.

Ok let's go!

Bro Bully, don't you abandon your troops

even power and fortune?

Didn't you used to call

me a Rotten Warlord?

Now I have nothing.

What else can you come up with?

I was only joking.

Don't be so sensitive.

Where do you plan to go?

I'm invited to World Magic Championships

in England.

But...

I'd wanted to go to France.

People can experience many

facets of life on stage.

So I want to make films.

Hope there's a future in it!

I'll go to Prussia to do weapon research.

One day I'll build a flying bomb

to kill enemies from distance.

And you?

I'm still undecided.

There's no time for jokes.

Yin, just pick me!

Dad

I now know why 7 Wonders do nothing for me.

It's because I've no ambition

I don't desire either of them.

Why regret the past and

worry about the future?

Why neglect the best things in life

in order to feed our ambition?

They're just 2 insensitive,

rotten scoundrels.

- She means you.

- You!

You don't need me.

Better find yourself a nanny!

Go find one!

Goodbye.

No need for farewells.

Father, let's go.

What're you waiting for?

Go after her!

You've 6 wives at home. Go back!

I got rid of them. Now it's fair game!

Bullshit.

Yin, here comes your baby, Bully!

- Shut up, you're so annoying!

- I love you.

See a revenge from a beauty!

Let's split up and follow them.

Till we meet again!
