1. Impossible!Copy !req
2. A medicine that could neutralize my
most secret poison in such short time?Copy !req
3. It can't be! How is this possible?Copy !req
4. I wouldn't act as if your clean
bill of health will save you.Copy !req
5. You're still trapped like
a rat, Shāng Bù Huàn!Copy !req
6. The deaths at Xiān Zhèn Fortress,
and the slaughter in the town near it...Copy !req
7. The law of Dōng Li is already aware
of your culpability in these crimes!Copy !req
8. You are now a fugitive here, too! Run all
you like, but you will never find peace!Copy !req
9. And your point is?Copy !req
10. If you surrender now and submit,
you may yet find lenience.Copy !req
11. Because any futile resistance is already—Copy !req
12. Is already what, exactly?Copy !req
13. What part of this is supposed to impress me?Copy !req
14. Oh, I get it!Copy !req
15. This goof thinks that
Shāng Bù Huàn fled fromCopy !req
16. Xī Yōu to Dōng Li to
get away from the law!Copy !req
17. What a joke!Copy !req
18. Do you deny it's true?Copy !req
19. I really don't feel like
explaining myself to you.Copy !req
20. And I'm sick of you running around after me,Copy !req
21. so why don't we settle things
once and for all, Hunting Fox?Copy !req
22. Do not toy with me, Shāng Bù Huàn!Copy !req
23. Do you dare claim that
I am beneath your notice?Copy !req
24. People may call it dishonorable and cowardly,Copy !req
25. but I have dedicated my passion
and my time to my poisons!Copy !req
26. And in the name of that pride,
I refuse to back down!Copy !req
27. You...Copy !req
28. Disrupting hierarchies based
on strength of arms isCopy !req
29. the guiding principle behind my poison!Copy !req
30. And that being the case—Copy !req
31. I must defeat you, who has tasted
its toxicity, no matter what the cost!Copy !req
32. Too bad for you!Copy !req
33. If you had felt this strongly
about it a day earlier,Copy !req
34. you could've actually taken me down!Copy !req
35. Poison Mist Storm!Copy !req
36. Formless Rogue Sword:Copy !req
37. Impact Screen!Copy !req
38. If you're so confident in your poisons,Copy !req
39. then surely you don't need
the aid of a mystic sword?Copy !req
40. B-Bastard...Copy !req
41. How can one guy love being a scumbag so much?Copy !req
42. Làng, stay on Xiē Yīngluò!Copy !req
43. Understood.Copy !req
44. The Night of Mourning...Copy !req
45. Not exactly a boon to someone
with no shortage of manpower.Copy !req
46. Xiē Yīngluò, could you not
have stolen a more useful weapon?Copy !req
47. I'm not gonna let a dog like
you hold onto it either way.Copy !req
48. Hand it over, now.Copy !req
49. Something has always bothered me.Copy !req
50. You have gathered so many supernatural tools,
and pay no heed to the law,Copy !req
51. yet seem to have no interest in
accomplishing anything with them.Copy !req
52. Surely you don't find the prospect
of fame and fortune tiresome?Copy !req
53. It's the world itself that
I don't find tiresome,Copy !req
54. so I don't wanna wreck it just
for some fame and fortune.Copy !req
55. And there are too many bastards like
you who don't understand that.Copy !req
56. What a waste. What a colossal waste!Copy !req
57. The contents of the Sorcerous Sword Index
are pearls before a swine like you.Copy !req
58. Halt right there!Copy !req
59. Vicious and villainous Shāng Bù Huàn,Copy !req
60. I shan't stand for any
more of your wrongdoing!Copy !req
61. Oh, if it isn't Sir Guǐ Niǎo!Copy !req
62. The honored fugitive hunter from
Xī Yōu is this nation's guest.Copy !req
63. By my honor as a lawman of Dōng Li,
I will not allow you to harm him!Copy !req
64. What a relief!Copy !req
65. Oh, I get it.Copy !req
66. So the Enigmatic Gale has a new target.Copy !req
67. Yeah, he seems like the type.Copy !req
68. Given the exhaustion evident among your men,
I believe retreat would be a wise course.Copy !req
69. We should return to the outpost
and request reinforcements!Copy !req
70. Looks like Xiào Kuáng Juàn is
done for, no matter what I do.Copy !req
71. Which means I ought to go
after Xiē Yīngluò first.Copy !req
72. Damn you... Damn you,
Xiào Kuáng Juàn! You dare...Copy !req
73. But if you cannot offer a
convincing reason to demand it...Copy !req
74. Then your sword has even less value.Copy !req
75. If you had felt this strongly
about it a day earlier,Copy !req
76. you could've actually taken me down!Copy !req
77. If you rely on that dull lump of iron,
you'll never defeat Shāng Bù Huàn.Copy !req
78. I...Copy !req
79. Can I not fulfill a single task
His Eminence has asked of me?Copy !req
80. Am I truly so powerless?Copy !req
81. Y-You...Copy !req
82. Man, where did that scorpion lady get to?Copy !req
83. Hey, did you find her?Copy !req
84. Nah, seems like she got away.Copy !req
85. Hey, monk, can I ask...Copy !req
86. You see a shady-looking
woman running around here?Copy !req
87. If I were to find anything suspicious,Copy !req
88. it would be the men who seek
to pursue an injured woman.Copy !req
89. Well, you've got us there.Copy !req
90. But she was the one who was trying
to kill me just a while ago.Copy !req
91. And so you now seek to take her life?Copy !req
92. If she was willing to settle things
peacefully, I'd be fine with it, but...Copy !req
93. Kinda doubt that's likely.Copy !req
94. If you would still seek this woman,
then I would ask you the reason why.Copy !req
95. Fair enough. I get that a monk wouldn't want to
get involved with the possible taking of a life.Copy !req
96. Forget about it. Didn't mean to bug you.
It's nothing for you to worry about.Copy !req
97. Sorry for the trouble.Copy !req
98. Hang on there.Copy !req
99. What kinda question is that?Copy !req
100. I'd get it if you just
wanted to avoid bloodshed,Copy !req
101. but you were asking why.Copy !req
102. So does that mean you would've told us
where she is, depending on our answer?Copy !req
103. And that you don't see a
point in covering for her?Copy !req
104. I have lost sight of the meaning behind
the deeds carried out in this world.Copy !req
105. Thus, I find myself unable to do
anything but question all things.Copy !req
106. You mean to tell me you don't see the
meaning in saving someone's life?Copy !req
107. It is for that very reason
that I am on this pilgrimage.Copy !req
108. I see.Copy !req
109. Then you need to die!Copy !req
110. Líng Yá, transforming...Copy !req
111. You would demand my life, then?Copy !req
112. I don't want it. But you'll
forfeit it all the same!Copy !req
113. Stop! What the hell's gotten into you?Copy !req
114. What is this all about?
Líng Yá, make him stop!Copy !req
115. What do you want me to do?
I'm just an instrument!Copy !req
116. He pulls the strings, and I make the sounds!Copy !req
117. Hey, monk! You need to get out of here!Copy !req
118. He would seek to kill me?Copy !req
119. Then I would ask to hear his reason why.Copy !req
120. Shut up!Copy !req
121. I'm begging you, get out of here!Copy !req
122. He's not gonna stop until you're gone!Copy !req
123. You need to settle the hell down!Copy !req
124. Hey!Copy !req
125. Làng, why did you do that?Copy !req
126. Look, man, I understand
that you don't like to talk.Copy !req
127. But we're not gonna get
anywhere unless you speak up.Copy !req
128. Please, just try and explain it to me.Copy !req
129. Why were you going to kill that monk?Copy !req
130. He is evil.Copy !req
131. And he will bring misfortune to the world.Copy !req
132. What I'm asking is, why do you think that?Copy !req
133. Just try and put that into words for me!Copy !req
134. You didn't think there was anything
weird about what that monk just said?Copy !req
135. What do you mean?Copy !req
136. Listen up, my man.Copy !req
137. The guy not only sees no
meaning in human life,Copy !req
138. but he's also running around in search
of something that's more valuable.Copy !req
139. Gotta admit, it's a pitiful state of affairs.Copy !req
140. He's never gonna find anything like that.Copy !req
141. Nope.Copy !req
142. It's not about finding an actual answer.Copy !req
143. It's about what people choose as an answer.Copy !req
144. Let's say he gives it up someday,Copy !req
145. and decides that the world's
devoid of meaning. No harm done.Copy !req
146. But what if he finds an answer,
and it's some nasty business?Copy !req
147. You're saying that if he found the
right reason, he could kill somebody?Copy !req
148. And you attacked him because you're
sure that's gonna be the case?Copy !req
149. Is that what this is about?
Your instinct talking again?Copy !req
150. You oughta know by nowCopy !req
151. that his instincts are sharper than a
shark's nose or a cat's night vision.Copy !req
152. Not the kind of thing you can explain
with logic, but he tends to be right. A lot!Copy !req
153. How am I supposed to accept that
kinda thing if it can't be explained?Copy !req
154. And because he can't explain it to you,Copy !req
155. he doesn't ask you to help, and doesn't
get mad if you try to stop him.Copy !req
156. Where am I?Copy !req
157. Fear not. No one is pursuing you.Copy !req
158. Why did you save me?Copy !req
159. You have yet to answer my question.Copy !req
160. Ridiculous...Copy !req
161. You can't imagine the fearsome foes
you've earned by aiding me like this.Copy !req
162. I have encountered your foes already,
and they have tried to kill me.Copy !req
163. I believe it is divine
providence that I survived.Copy !req
164. You would go so far?Copy !req
165. It was not for your sake.Copy !req
166. I feel compelled to question
all turns in fate,Copy !req
167. all matters of life and
death that I encounter.Copy !req
168. Why would you do something so pointless?Copy !req
169. You consider it pointless too, then.Copy !req
170. Other people seem brilliant to me.
Even worthy of admiration.Copy !req
171. Why do you shed blood and fight
amongst yourselves so fervently?Copy !req
172. To have something in your hearts
you feel so strongly about...Copy !req
173. How blessed you must be.
How joyful your lives are.Copy !req
174. And it isn't like that for you?Copy !req
175. I do not understand.Copy !req
176. Why do others laugh, cry,Copy !req
177. fear death, and cling to life?Copy !req
178. The vividness of the world
of humanity is incomprehensible.Copy !req
179. It exists before my very eyes,Copy !req
180. yet feels like nothing more than
a picture book being read to me.Copy !req
181. I've heard what happened,
Sir Fugitive Hunter.Copy !req
182. You apparently were successful
in tracking down Shāng Bù HuànCopy !req
183. before encountering some great difficulty?Copy !req
184. Yes, much to my shame.Copy !req
185. I am reminded once again of
how fierce a villain he is.Copy !req
186. At this point, as a lawman of Dōng Li,
I can ill afford to stand by and do nothing.Copy !req
187. But if this fiend is truly powerful enough
to fend off so many men with the strengthCopy !req
188. to cross the Wasteland of Spirits...Copy !req
189. I'm at a loss.Copy !req
190. Putting that aside, sir, there is
one thing I would like to ask.Copy !req
191. How can I help you?Copy !req
192. I'm a foreigner,
and unfamiliar with Dōng Li,Copy !req
193. so I realize this may sound
like an odd question...Copy !req
194. But there's something that caught my ear.Copy !req
195. Have you ever heard of something
called the Enigmatic Gale?Copy !req
196. Th-The Enigmatic Gale?Copy !req
197. Wh-Where did you hear that name?Copy !req
198. Could you enlighten me regarding it?Copy !req
