Noble Aspirations Episode 32

ep 32 spoilers ahead

1. Xiao Fan is meeting with Bi Yao. He stole a 1000 poison uniform and snuck into her sect and explains to her that he will not allow her father to take the heavenly scroll out of him because he already has one. Also, he needs to get the other one because if he doesn't then Yue, who has returned to Qin Lan, will be in big trouble (basically Yue has returned to take the brunt of the punishment while Xiao tries to redeem them)

--Little does he know that Senior Brother is setting him up--

2.I am not sure if Brother Qi is setting up Xiao Fan or Yue. The former would make more sense however he infected the latter, so it must be Yue. Whichever one it is, Brother Qi has convinced the sect leader that, at, the very least, he was seduced by the demon girl (is this sect leader a moron?)

3.Meanwhile, Xiao Fan drinks tea with ghost king. He now knows that he disguised as Mr. Wen. He applauds Xiao's courage for seeing him. Xiao directly asks him if he was involved with the massacre of his village. We know Boss Nian didn't do it (Li Xue/Blood Sect) because he was in hiding and Ghost King reports he was in seclusion because Bi Yao's mother had died. He did not know that the village had been destroyed (so who did it?).

4.Ghost king essentially tells Xiao Fan that if someone seriously investigated the incident, they would have found something. He tells him that his sect must not be taking this seriously (which offends Xiao Fan, however, he has a point) or it could be someone is deliberately covering it up

5.The ghost king warns him that if he forces the heavenly book out, it will disable him and destroy his meridians. If he does not train it will turn him into a murderer and crazy. (I am sorry, but everything the ghost sect has done seems to be pretty reasonable they seem to get a bad wrap)

6.Well this has turned into a heated conversation that poor Bi Yao has to helplessly watch! The guy she likes is going toe to toe with her father, but then, won't her father respect him more? Odd, but Xiao Fan almost acts like a member of the evil sect, at least in terms of attitude. Very direct. Delivering threats (even if they are not physical)--her father almost attacks him but she intervenes

--I think he becomes the next ghost king--

7.Meanwhile, Yu is being chewed out by the sect leaders. Yu has to defend his actions, which make him and Xiao appear sympathetic to the evil sect. Yu maintains that they did what they thought was best, that if they allowed the Li Xue Sect leader and Ghost king to kill each other, it would have harmed innocent people. But the sect leader says that justifies the deaths of many (I really don't like these guys! they are such hypocrites! I think they only care about power!)

8.Senior Brother Qi is obnoxiously smug throughout all of this. Then he triggers the poison to make him attack himself--so Yu is attacking Qi and then the Immortal Guardian appears....so now everyone believes Yu is traitor except for Tian and his wife. Both think it doesn't make sense because their family was killed by the evil sect (is senior sect leader so easily manipulated?!)

9.Tian encourages sect leader to keep an open minded, and wait until Xiao returns, that there must be an explanation. Tian insists that it must be a trap, but sect leader insists that even if it is, the risk is too high and they must destroy Yu's cultivation, but Tian says they would be losing a gifted and innocent disciple

10.We learn that Yu and Xiao have a close relationship that reminds sect leader of someone (who?) we also learn that sect leader spared 'him' many years ago and that he had 'no choice that day' (are they trying to say that Qin Lan massacred that village? I bet they did! if they felt it was justified, they would do anything! scary)

11.Meanwhile, Auntie and Bi Yao are talking about Xiao Fan. She reveals that there was once someone very similar to Xiao Fan who wanted the same thing (peace) but he failed and it isn't known if he is alive or dead

12.Mr. Ghost and ghost king are meeting. They are discussing whether or not to use the four blood summoning spell to find the other scrolls (they want to avoid making the mistake of Elderheart). It involves using four mythical creatures

13.Ghost king again states that Xiao Fan is wasted on Qin Lan and would do something great in the future if he weren't in that sect. Xiao Fan and Qin Wi Yan (former city guard/poison sect) get into a fight but are stopped by ghost king, who says anyone on his land is a guest and protected (so no fights)

14.Xiao Fan and Bi Yao say their 'see you laters' meanwhile Yu defends himself to his shifu, insisting he is innocent (his mentor is meanwhile thinking 'if you learn the truth you will turn your sword against me' and 'I cannot tolerate a threat) THEY TOTALLY KILLED HIS VILLAGE I KNOW IT!
