Morning dew from first day of Spring.

For the rest,

look for them in the Infernal Cave.

What?

You're lost too?

This is forbidden area.

I've never come here.

We could die here if we're lost.

Go.

Our guide will be here.

Look.

Here's our guide.

You speak wolf?

I was raised by wolves.

Where are we?

So serene.

Breathtaking.

It's the border beyond.

The army of Jin is hiding there.

They want to invade through here.

Serenity won't last forever.

You won't let them through.

Let's go.

Head of Secret Squad is here.

Deputy General Jin Duyi...

at your service.

May I ask why you're here?

To capture the wanted criminal,

Zhuo Yihang.

Mr. Zhuo.

Yihang.

He's taken by the Jade Rakshasa.

His life is in danger.

I heard,

she murdered Governor Zhuo.

Yes.

This dart is from the Governor's corpse.

It belongs to her.

The Nonagon Dart.

We have to save Yihang.

Fort Luna is built to defend.

We would have taken it if it's easy.

A simple fort,

cannot stop us.

Farewell.

Sir.

If you like,

the Chuan-Shan army...

would be glad to help.

The Secret Squad needs no help.

There's no need,

General Jin.

Up there.

These herbs can fight typhoid fever.

Lian Nishang (Silk Fairy).

Have you forgotten?

I promise you a pretty name.

A pretty name for a pretty girl.

In this world,

nobody deserves this name...

other than you.

That day on the hill.

I saw you playing the flute.

You stood in the breeze.

Your belt fluttered like

silk; you, like a fairy.

Beautiful.

Let me tell you.

If you can't save Fort Luna,

I'll take your life in a heartbeat.

Lian Nishang.

I won't give you the chance.

Could the medicine...

stop the typhoid fever?

If it fails,

we have to kill them all.

Is the medicine ready?

Ready.

Take them over there.

Why do you think,

love...

is the deadliest poison?

My master said so.

She fell for a man years ago.

They were engaged secretly.

But that man betrayed her.

She was devastated.

She never saw him again.

This is a token of their love.

Actually,

Hatred...

is also poison.

If you let hatred go,

life will be much better.

I hate the man who tormented my master.

I'm hungry-

You're hungry?

I've saved some food for you.

Come.

Come. One more.

I'm hungry too. Let me have some.

He's hungry too.

Brothers, there are lots of food.

I'll show you.

Let's go.

Let's eat.

They're all hungry.

Give us food.

This is the Kong Ming Lantern.

If you miss someone,

set the lantern up in the sky.

That person will know.

Yes.

Make a wish to the ones you miss.

They can hear you.

Good.

Yes.

Thanks for saving them.

Or else,

they'll all die.

You're not heartless.

You don't know everything.

Oh.

I like that name.

Lian Nishang.

Nishang.

Yes.

Come and meet my grandfather.

Why?

He's the only family I have.

I'm sure he'd like you.

Will we come back?

Sure.

This is my Lunar Kingdom too.

I promise.

Who's there?

Give us Yihang.

Breaking into Fort Luna?

You're dead.

Masters.

Yihang.

You've been held captive indeed.

Zhuo Yihang.

You murdered His Majesty with Red Pills.

Come to the Palace with me for justice.

Or everyone in Wudang...

will be executed.

Go With him.

Clear Wudang's name.

The authority doesn't care about justice.

How could you clear your name?

If you try to get anyone out of here,

there will be blood.

Witch.

If you interfere with the Secret Squad,

I'll level Fort Luna.

Just try.

Hold it. Stop.

She's not a witch.

Her name is Lian Nishang.

And she's my woman.

I'm here...

to protect her.

This witch...

murdered your grandfather.

Why don't you avenge him?

What did you say?

Grandfather is dead?

She did it.

You're framing her.

We didn't kill him.

I didn't kill your grandfather.

We have proof.

This is your own dart.

Stop lying-

You witch.

Why are you seducing our leader?

What do you want?

Yihang.

Take the sword.

It's my dart.

But I didn't kill your grandfather.

Don't you trust me?

If you have the slightest doubt,

Zhuo Yihang.

Then I shouldn't be yours.

You won't regret being my woman.

But I must find the real murderer.

Wudang is in trouble.

I must go.

Nishang.

Wait for me.

I'll be back.

Your Majesty.

The culprit of the Red Pills.

Zhuo Yihang has been captured.

Wow.

This carving is magnificent.

It's alright.

It's spectacular.

Your Majesty.

The Wudang elders have been kneeling

for four hours.

You take care of it.

Yes.

Don't worry.

The real culprit of the Red Pills...

will be found.

Thanks, Your Excellency.

We've come to this.

Someone has to take the fall.

Either Yihang or the entire Wudang.

Wudang must live on.

But sacrificing Yihang,

knowing he's innocent,

Wudang will live in shame.

Aiya, my friend.

You...

You are here,

to let Wudang take the blame.

Yes.

You promise?

Yes.

Alright.

Please report to His Majesty,

Wudang is innocent.

Wudang is magnanimous.

Sure.

Oh no.

Isn't this...

the Wudang envoy with the Red Pills?

Who are you?

Who are you then?

Xiong Tingbi, Military

Minister of Liaodong.

Zhuo Yihang from Wudang.

Ting.

Get the Top Scholar candy.

Yes.

Why are you unharmed here?

Because they need me.

If I'm still alive,

they could use me to

threaten Wudang and the world,

forcing them to obey the eunuchs.

But I'd rather die,

than to join the eunuchs.

You can't die.

Everyone knows about the

Red Pills incident.

But there must be a

transition in everything.

The Palace has been kind to Wudang.

In times like this,

we hope the Head of Wudang can help.

What would Your Excellency need?

Please let me know.

Xiong has been contacting the Jin clan,

to rebel against the Palace.

He's been executed.

If you could take his head...

...to Xiong's men,

to warn them not to rebel.

You'll no longer be seen as a suspect.

You're the key...

...to Wudang's future.

I agree.

I almost forgot,

your master Ziyang has passed away.

There's a bright side to this.

Nobody will be telling you what to do.

Yihang.

Are you married?

I've sworn to serve Wudang all my life.

Let me tell you a secret.

I had a family,

before I became a eunuch.

I have a daughter.

Her name is Tingting.

This is Zhuo Yihang, Head of Wudang.

These are nice snacks.

Take them to Xiong's man, Yuan Chonghuan,

as reward from the Palace.

Master.

Are you going to Liaodong?

Yes.

Do you know,

General Xiong is a patriot?

I do.

Do you know,

Wudang...

has never done any harm.

I do.

Why are you still going?

Fine.

You want to go?

You'll have to get past us.

Go.

Stop.

Stand down.

Yes.

The Red Pills case.

Wudang left me to die.

You are aware of this.

From now on,

I'm no longer with Wudang.

We don't owe each other.

This sword.

I'm returning it.

From today,

whatever I do or say,

is no longer your business.

Go.

Zhuo Yihang.

You're now a stranger to Wudang.

Why are you doing this?

You can't die.

If you die,

Wudang will forever be associated with...

the murder of His Majesty.

The Palace...

is full of corrupt officials.

The Jin army is at our border.
