I just noticed on this watch that there’s a new person in charge of the Beggar’s Sect (although it makes sense since Huang He got killed in episode 26).
There is! He's got a cool green jade(?) staff, too.
On my first watch I'd totally assumed Deng Kuan was dead until he showed up here, tbh (I think TYK!Deng Kuan did die)
Right? There was no set-up for Deng Kuan returning here! I wish there had been! Even just a single shot proving that he was alive!
Besides generally injuring ZJ without killing him, I believe WKX hamstrings ZJ the same way his father was.
Yes, I believe so. :)
I’d kinda forgotten LFM also dealing with the poison - now I’m kinda curious if she’d gotten the full cure via WKX and Xie’er’s offscreen negotiations, if LQQ gave her the other full cure, or if she was given the recipe for the monthly cure.
Maybe WKX did bargain for her cure! I just wish it were made explicit, y'know?
That reminds me of the fact that while characters Basil Rathbone played usually lost swordfights, he was one of the best swordsmen in Hollywood and knew how to make the other person look good.
Yes! That's what I was thinking about while writing that bit. :) (And yeah, I also wish LFM had gotten a fight scene...)
