Noble Aspirations Episode 31

ep 31 spoilers ahead

1.We open to Xiao Fan and Bi Yao munching on chicken. She says this will probably be something they cannot do in the future together (implying they will be enemies) but he tells her to focus on the present.

2.Meanwhile, Ghost King is worried his daughter was hurt because nameless one/city guard has her bracelet that holds the heavenly scroll. He is adamant that she is safe, that he brought it in order to create an alliance.

3.Meanwhile Xiao Fan says he will help her find her bracelet but she says no worries, only she can open it. She tries to get him to see her father so he can help with his illness but he refuses, and she angrily storms off.

4.He follows, and they run into her father (in disguise). He asks Xiao Fan a series of questions. We learn 1)his weapon contains the blood pearl 2)the wand itself is a soul capturing stick 3)the former is so rare only one person had one (elderheart) and 4)the latter is so rare no one has seen it because it takes 1000 years to form and requires many malicious souls 5)the soul capturing stick will cause someone's blood to flow backwards and heart to stop if they are within 30 feet of it which begs the question--why is Xiao Fei alive, and using a demonic holy object?

5.He tells Xiao Fei he must be a very fortunate person to wield such a weapon and be alive. They get into a debate about morals and evil, and the old man challenges Xiao Fan's world view, stating that the Qin Lan sacred sword is the most evil weapon alive. Xiao Fan shows to be open minded and states that it doesn't matter if he uses an evil weapon so long as it is for good. This earns the other man's respect and he tells him that few people are so open minded

6.Later, Bi Yao gives her father the second heavenly scroll. Her father has a talk with Mr. Ghost and they agree that Xiao Fan is extraordinary and someone they should get on their side

7.Xiao Fan visits Bi Yao (sneaks into the ghost sect)

8.Yu helps senior brother (who we also learn is the ghost sect sacrifice) but senior brother betrays him and infects him! (no!)
