Chinese Paladin - Episode 20

FINALLY!  We're past that filler arc and are back to doing stuff!!!

First, let me say:  Fuck Lunar Sect...fuck those guys in the neck!

Alright, now that's out of my system, onto the stuff that happened.  Number Seven, Xiao, and Rue all left the city to go their separate ways, with Xiao and Rue heading back to Rue's stomping grounds and Number Seven going back to his scholarly shits, while Ah Nu, Ling'er, Big Rock and everyone else stayed behind.

Xiao and Rue got to talking while on the road, and she totally told him!

  

 Crazy, right?  And she's totally cool with him being sprung on Ling'er.  Chick is pretty alright.

Anyways, back in town the Lunar Sect (who needs to be fucked in the neck) swarmed on the inn and Big Rock held them at bay so Tang Yu and Ah Nu could get Ling'er out of there.  Only for her to be taken by Sword Saint for whatever reasons this new player has going for him.

Meanwhile, there's a revelation!  Turns out that the Head Priest of Lunar Sect (who needs to be fucked in the neck) is the son of Big Rock!  Before there was Tang Yu, that jerk was the Big Rock's son.

Needless to say, their relationship back when Head Priest was younger was a bit....tumultuous. 

SPOILER ALERT!!!!!

Head Priest puts a whammy on Big Rock by kissing his hand.  If he was to move, he would blow up...he managed to stay still long enough to talk to Xiao and Rue, and then Tang Yu and Ah Nu.  He had a pretty good death, I must say.

After this, Tang Yu and Ah Nu head up to Mt. Shi to try to ask for Ling'er back while Xiao and Rue head to the city to make sure that Number Seven was alright after hearing that some roughs were following him around.  Come to find out it was a trap that Lunar Sect (who needs to be fucked in the neck) was trying to spring on them.  Not sure why I marked for this little parting exchange, but I did.

Then Head Priest encounters Tang Yu and Ah Nu and does some magical thing that sinks the both of them up to the neck in the ground while Xiao and Rue find out that Number Seven is ill and married!  Personally, I think the married part is worse, but that's just me.

Back up on Mt Shi, we get some glimpse as to why Sword Saint captured Ling'er and it has to do with her being the descendant of Nv Wu, so we get the return of Snake chick Ling'er!!!

I had no idea reverting her back to this form also came with a costume change, but whatever.  She's now locked in Mt. Shi's Demon Sealing Tower.

Number Seven's wife is out hunting for stuff to make medicine while Xiao and Rue post up there and Tang Yu and Ah Nu are still buried up to their necks.  

Everyone's accounted for!
