Ashes of Time Page #3

Mister?

You've made a mistake.

I'm not Mr. Murong,

but the first daughter of the

famous Murong clan.

My name is Yin.

Who are you anyway?

Don't you remember me?

You once promised to marry me.

Of course I remember you!

Did I?

You passed by Gosu City the

other day.

We drank together.

You touched my face...

And said you'd marry my

sister if I had one.

You knew I'm a woman in disguise.

Why did you still say that?

A man can't be serious when he's drunk.

Because of your promise,

I've been waiting for you.

I asked you to take me along...

but you refused.

You said you couldn't love two

persons at the same time.

Surely you loved Yin.

Why did you fall in love

with another woman?

Do you know I went to look

for that woman?

Someone told me that you

loved her most.

I had wanted to kill her!

But I didn't in the end.

Because I didn't want

to prove that she's...

I asked you if I was the

woman you loved most...

I don't want to know

the answer anymore!

If I ever ask you the

same question again...

Please don't tell me the truth.

Although it may not be the truth...

Please tell me you love me.

Time passed very slowly that night.

I seemed to be talking

to two persons simultaneously.

In the end...

I couldn't tell Yin from Yang.

Yin?

Yang?

Tell me...

Who do you love most?

Is it you?

Someone once asked me the same question.

I didn't answer.

Acting as Huang Yaoshi, however...

I found it's not so hard

to utter those three words.

That night...

I felt someone touch me

in my sleep.

I knew very well I wasn't the

person she wanted to touch.

She was just imagining

I was someone else.

It's the same for me.

Her hands were very soft...

Just like those of my brother's wife...

From that day onwards,

no one had ever seen Yin or Yang.

A few years later, a legend about

a swordsman with a mysterious history...

Started to spread in the martial

arts world.

People said he likes to practise his

swordplay on his own reflection.

He called himself the

"Defeat-Seeking Loner".

What do you want?

I want to avenge

my younger brother.

What happened to him?

A group of swordsmen

passed by a few days ago.

My brother unknowingly offended

one of them.

They slaughtered him.

You can go to the local magistrate.

They're in the militia.

The magistrate wouldn't dare

do a thing.

How much money do you have?

We are a poor family.

All I got are these eggs and my mule.

I'll give it to anyone

who'd avenge my brother.

If you're serious...

you must pay.

No one is going to take on

those swordsmen for a mule.

There's a price for vengeance.

If you weren't attractive,

I'd have told you to forget it.

Don't get me wrong.
