♪Heaven feels no sorrow, you’ve also grown old♪ ♪The heroes have died and little time is left♪ ♪I’ve forgotten those who are gone♪ [Word of Honor] [Episode 1] Twenty years ago, when the evil Rong Xuan was killed in Mount Qingya by the Five Lakes Alliance and other heroes, he left behind
An armory that could let someone become invincible overnight. In order to open the armory, one must find the Glazed Armor. Afterwards, as a nursery rhyme spread, many forces began to secretly search for the Glazed Armor in order to control the armory. Prince Jin in the north is also starting to make his move.
[Military Governor’s Mansion] What happened? Look. Over there, too! Archers, get ready! Shoot! [Prince Jin is secretly training assassins in the Window of Heaven] [to kill the officials of the Court.] [Officer Li – Military Governor] [He has intentions to revolt.] [Swordsman in Green – Military Governor’s Guard]
Master, the assassins from the Window of Heaven are here. Hurry and go with me! Who are you? Hand over the confidential letter. No way! [Zhou Zi Shu – Leader of the Window of Heaven] Officer Zhou. You are from the Window of Heaven? I’m here to see Officer Li off.
Zhou Zi Shu, what you do to others will be inflicted on you later. You are helping the bad guys. The disaster in the future begins today. I die without regret. Officer Li, my apologies. [Princess Jing An – Military Governor’s Daughter] Senior Zhou. Princess Jing An. This is…
The Military Governor conspired with corrupt officials in attempt to revolt. He has been killed. Impossible. Impossible. My father gave everything to the country! It’s a pity. But his action must be punished. I came to visit today to give you a choice. I want to thank you for bringing back
My junior Qin Jiu Xiao’s body to me in the chaotic circumstances. I will never forget your kindness. Your Highness, you have high status. Committing suicide will save you from humiliation. Am I supposed to thank you? You killed my entire family. And you’re letting me die with dignity. Where did you bury Jiu Xiao?
Four Seasons Manor. He lay next to our master. The flowers blossom in all four seasons, knowing everything in the world. [Qin Jiu Xiao – Younger Lord of Four Seasons Manor] So ugly. Give it to me. Give it to me! So annoying. Junior. If you find a girl you like,
I will be happy for you. He told me that after he retired from his position, he would live with me there. [Window of Heaven] Everything is taken care of. Only a few stubborn generals tried to resist. I killed them. Leader. Bi Chang Feng made a huge mistake
In the mission to assassinate the Military Governor. And he wants to leave the Window of Heaven. It infuriated Prince Jin. Prince Jin ordered you to deal with it in person. Uncle Bi. [Bi Chang Feng – Guard of the Window of Heaven, former Member of Four Seasons Manor] My lord, you’re here. Uncle Bi.
Four Seasons Manor only has you and me left. Eighty-one of our brothers came to Jin with you. Now it’s just you and me. Even Jiu Xiao is dead. What Four Seasons Manor can there be? Why haven’t your wounds healed? Shadows without traces. Entry without exit. Know everything. Be everywhere.
Prince Jin requested me to accomplish these four things when I created the Window of Heaven. Once you enter the Window of Heaven, you cannot leave. You know that. I know that I can’t walk out. Can I not be carried out? Even if I can only live freely for one day,
It’s still better than being Prince Jin’s dog. You’d rather become a cripple than continue working for me? Over the years, we’ve been through thick and thin. I did everything you asked me to. But our people from Four Seasons Manor were continuously persecuted. So I began to question Prince Jin’s intentions. Now,
I really cannot do it anymore. Not to mention seven nails. I’m willing to take a thousand cuts in order to quit! I know you can’t help it, and I don’t blame you. If our relationship over the years still matters to you, please give me the nails.
That’s true. All I can do is send you off with my own hands. Don’t worry. I will take care of your family. Whatever, I won’t know about it. My lord, please. [Han Ying – Commander of the Window of Heaven] [Duan Peng Ju – Vice Leader of the Window of Heaven] Bi
Is really a tough man. No ordinary person can endure the Nails of Seven Torments. Brother Zhang. What are the Nails of Seven Torments? Nails of Seven Torments, death in three years. Once you’ve taken the tails, you will not only lose your martial arts, but you will also begin to lose your senses.
In the beginning, you can’t speak. Then you can’t hear, smell, or see. You’ll become vegetative. This is the only way that you won’t expose the secrets of the Window of Heaven. Though you become a cripple, you still remember what happened. You’ll live in torment for three years before you actually get to die.
Why would anyone want to take it? Isn’t it better to just die? Well. Will they let you die so easily? This is the rule of the Window of Heaven. They scare you, so that you won’t consider leaving. If one day, you don’t want to stay here anymore,
Pretend to accidentally fall on your blade during the mission. You’ll die quickly without torment. If you die during a mission, our lord will even take care of your family. No, I dare not. I will be loyal to the Window of Heaven and our lord for the rest of my life.
What did you call me? My lord. No, Leader. I’m sorry. I thought the elders called you that. The last person from Four Seasons Manor is gone. Don’t ever say “my lord” again. ♪The East Wind blew my heart to the empty city♪ ♪Fall silently on earth♪ [It’s been ten years.]
[Ten years on this path of no return.] [I remember each face of the people from Four Seasons Manor who died.] [They’re all dead.] [Except me.] [Why?] [Because I don’t even deserve to die.] [It serves me right to keep living.] [The Leader of the Window of Heaven.]
[I am above hundreds and thousands of men and only below one] [and yet I live like this, boastful of this power,] [but I can’t even save a single person I want to protect.] ♪To fail some people to let my dream♪ ♪Rise like the wind♪ ♪It seems to have become the witness♪
♪People are all gone in an instant♪ [Lichun Palace] [Prince Jin] Why doesn’t Zi Shu come to see me? [Prince Jin] Has he still not recovered? Your Highness. The traitor has rallied many people who are skilled at martial arts. Leader hasn’t fought anyone for a long time.
It must have aggravated his injuries this time. He has been taking rest in isolation these days. Since he spat blood and fainted at the news of Qin Jiu Xiao’s death, how long have his injuries lasted? About a year, right? Your Highness. Yes. He becomes like this just for Qin Jiu Xiao.
He won’t be of great use. Tell him to come to see me as soon as possible. Yes. [The flowers blossom in all four seasons,] [knowing everything in the world.] [Eighty-one of our brothers came to Jin with you.] [Now it’s just you and me.] [Even Jiu Xiao is dead.]
[What Four Seasons Manor can there be?] [In order to leave the Window of Heaven,] [I spent a year and a half] [to put the Nails of Seven Torments in my body.] [There are actually two ways to put in the nails.] [If you put all seven nails in at once,]
[the person being tortured will quickly lose his senses,] [and he can only live as a cripple for three years.] [But if you put in one nail every three months] [to let the nail get into your body gradually] [and become part of your body,] [though you will still have three years left,]
[you will retain half of your martial arts,] [and your senses will only disappear in turn slowly] [until death.] [You just have to endure the extreme pain] [that will last for three years and another 18 months.] Senior. Don’t do that. Jiu Xiao? Why are you crying? What’s there to cry about?
It’s what I deserve. The eighty-one brothers from Four Seasons Manor all died in my hands. Our heritage is terminated. I couldn’t protect any of you. I even killed your lover. After I die, how can I face you? I wonder if you’ve met Princess Jing An on your side. She’s telling on me, right?
How could there be such a cruel senior like me? How could I give a bottle of poison to my sister-in-law as our meeting gift? Guard Zhou Zi Shu is here! Come in. Greetings, Your Highness. Please get up. You really don’t look well. Take a rest. You are a pillar of this country.
I need your help to achieve my goals. I was an ordinary man, only fit to be your weapon. Now that Hedong is peaceful, you need people who know about government. I can only fight, and can’t be of great help to you. Zi Shu, what do you mean? Zi Shu! My will is broken.
My wounds are not recovering, and I can’t do much now. I want to return to my hometown. I’ve already left the Window of Heaven. I asked for the punishment of the Nails of Seven Torments, and allowed it myself. I’ve already put six nails in. If I put in one more,
I’m afraid I can’t get to say goodbye to you. I hope you can consider the merit of my hard work, even if I have no merit of any achievements, and fulfill my wishes. Good. Very good. Zhou Zi Shu. No wonder you’re the Leader of the Window of Heaven. You’re cruel and decisive,
Even willing to hurt yourself like this. Your Highness, please calm down. If you don’t want to live, I can let you die! Why go through all this trouble? You saved my life. If you allow it, I can then drag this crippled body along for two more years. If you don’t,
Then take my life. You all lied to me! Yun Xing left. Bei Yuan… Bei Yuan is gone too. I’m really alone in this world now. Zi Shu, you were lying to me, right? If I spare you, are you willing to help me to achieve my goals? Please give me the last nail.
You’d rather be a cripple that my trusted official? Fine! I understand your intention. Nails of Seven Torments, death in three years. Zhou Zi Shu, you have to stay alive. Three years. Within three years, I will definitely go there and ascend the throne! I’m going to show you that I am the chosen one,
And I will be successful no matter what! I will try my best. Peng Ju, do as he says. From now on, you are the Leader of the Window of Heaven. Leader. He means… Congratulations to us both. We both got what we wanted today. The rivers flow. The window leads to the underworld.
Rumors endanger justice. The clouds hide the sun. You just wait, Zhou Zi Shu. I will let you go for now. ♪Ask each tactic and move to see who is more skilled♪ ♪Fate changes and cannot be predicted♪ ♪Ask the road and journey ahead♪ ♪Where is my soul mate?♪

We weren’t quick enough to stop him. Useless!
We need to see his person if he’s alive, his body if he’s dead. Where is his body? There wasn’t a body under the cliff. [Changing Ghost – Ten Devils of Ghost Valley] Good. Very good! It’s my fault. Chief, please forgive me! Please spare my life! Spare my life!
Chief, please forgive us. Kneel down. Chief, please forgive us. Hanging Ghost stole my Glazed Armor! Glazed Armor? Give my order to all 3,000 ghosts in Mount Qingya. From now on, I want everyone to go out and kill the traitor. Whoever can get the Glazed Armor back for me
Will be the head of Ten Devils! Kill Hanging Ghost! Retrieve the Glazed Armor! Kill Hanging Ghost! Retrieve the Glazed Armor! [Three months later, Yue] Whoever has been a beggar for three years won’t want to change his place even with an emperor. Master, look! That beggar is pretty optimistic. [Wen Ke Xing]
[Gu Xiang] He doesn’t even have a bowl before him. He didn’t get any money, and is still happy. Maybe he’s a fool? He is enjoying the sunshine. Enjoying the sunshine? What’s there to enjoy in the sun? He’s already so skinny. If he keeps sitting in the sun, he’ll really dry up!
Master, don’t look down on me for not having as much experience in life. He looks like he hasn’t had a full meal for three years. He may die any time. Am I wrong? I bet that he’s definitely a beggar. What’s the stake?
If I win, you have to play cards with me for three days! What if you lose? Then I’ll play cards with you for three days. Little girl, you’re trying to trick me? [Zhang Cheng Ling – Mirror Lake Manor Young Master] Wu, give him some money. Master, look! Someone gave him money! I won.
How come he doesn’t want the money? Young Master, look at him. He didn’t even thank us. No wonder he’s a beggar. Who told you to throw it on him? Beggar! I’ll treat you to a meal, alright? Kind lady. How about you treat me to a drink? Master, he called me a kind lady.
A kind lady! Let’s bet! Okay! I’ll treat you to a drink. Here. Are you not afraid that it’s poisoned and you’ll spill your guts after drinking it? Good wine. It’s worth it even if I die from poison. Toast to you! Thank you, kind lady. Kind lady. Here.
Miss, your martial arts are really good! Let me ask you. Why don’t you want their money? You want wine but not money. You are so picky for a beggar! Who says I’m a beggar? I’m just here to enjoy the sunshine. You’re trying to trick me into giving you wine? Give it back!
I can’t give back the wine, but you can have my life. Do you think I don’t dare to take your life? Miss, how could you bully a sick person with your good martial arts? Martial artists should help the poor and the weak. You should be righteous and just! Little idiot.
Are you lecturing me right now? Be careful. I might cut off your tongue! Kind lady. Quite a sweet face but such fiery conduct! I don’t believe it! ♪The sky was gray as I crossed the cold river♪ ♪The moon in my cup at night reflects the sadness in my smile♪
♪Who allowed me to roam around the world on horseback?♪ ♪Who is drunk in their dreams but can’t find home when they wake?♪ ♪The cold rain kisses my windows♪ ♪I don’t mind hate and slander, but my melancholy persists♪ ♪The spring breeze brings greenery along the river♪ ♪But can’t warm my cold heart♪
♪Is that our light out of nowhere?♪ ♪I regret not meeting you earlier, but we’ve finally met now♪ ♪Don’t let the seasons pass in vain♪ ♪Give up the adventures on horseback for a peaceful quiet life♪ ♪The lights of ten thousand families light up the world♪ ♪The past disappears like smoke in a sandstorm♪
♪I will spend the rest of my days enjoying my life with you♪ ♪I will be with you forever♪
