Blood River Episode 8 Reactions
The Patriarch is quite clever... making everyone believe they are fighting for the real Dragon Sword... tsk tsk tsk 👆🤨However, to me it looked like Su Muyu and Bai Hehuai were a bit shocked in a bad way by how the Patriarch had tricked them. I wonder if that will change their relationship in any way. 🤔 And, of course, I could always turn out to be wrong, lol!
Knowing this now, it's funny to think of all those guys believing they have become the Patriarch. Now the Mu family leader has not only a fake sword but also that promise Su Muyu made—to kill him with his own hands. And we all know Su Muyu keeps his word; it's like a personal code he lives by. 👆🤭
But what else caught my attention was the Patriarch's question to the guy from the Soul Reaper Hall: "Who ordered you to kill Second Master Tang?" Does that mean the Patriarch wasn't the one who killed him and Black Tortoise is after the wrong guy? Or did I misunderstand something there? 🤔

Changhe bets Muyu will defeat in one move. I did smirk as a puddle defeated him and washed him back in the building in front of his superiors. Nice move to humble a swordsman that steals souls as well as lives. Muyu gave the master the option to wield the Dormant Dragon sword by allowing Blood River members to decide for themselves whether to remain or leave. Their negotiation is interrupted by the coffin carrying Mu Ciling. He is promised a cure if he brings the sword back to Mu clan. Master Su had an impressive array of moves, but forfeited much sooner than I expected. He admitted defeat and was taking his clan home. Muyu arrives late to find healer with the sword and one of his men dead. The blow he received pierced his heart and was not repairable. The crazy Mu offered the life of a second man if he yielded the sword. Since Muyu values life, he gave up the sword but returned a message of how he would kill with his own hands the Mu leader no matter where he went or how he disguised himself. Muyu definitely made it a promise not just a threat and while the leader laughed the rest of his clan were more nervous. When Mu Ciling left to find the one with his cure, the Xie clan reminded the Mu clan that having the sword was only part of it. They had to return for it to be official. Uncle Zhe is watching from the sidelines expecting a good fight. The patriarch is met by the water rep of the Soul Reaper three. The reaper expects an easy victory and finds out the patriarch is healed. He slinks off for the time being but I am glade the current patriarch wants them gone and has built a peaceful place for members to retire to. I do not know if Muyu knew he had delivered a fake sword or not but the healer was definitely surprised. The battles are getting more intense and it really is a free for all with the clans. I am waiting to see if Mu Ciling has more to do as he is an interesting character. He was impressed with Muyu’s strength and message and did not try to battle him immediately. I find this interesting too. Changhe sets himself apart making it clear he doesn’t want to leave Blood River when Muyu was bargaining with Dormant Dragon sword. This does reverse the positions these two had earlier as Muyu considered it home and Changhe definitely did not. I wonder how long it will take the Mu’s and Xie’s to figure out the sword is not the only one.

The madman Ciling from the Mu family being the highlight of this episode will forever not be funny. Love his and SMY's interaction. Tiger's dead😭
