The beautiful twins were the biggest villains in this movie.
And also the two most complex characters.
A pair of martial arts sisters, one skilled in medicine and the other in poison.
At the beginning, when the male lead's entire household was killed, the suspicion was directed straight at the beautiful twins.
For that reason, the male lead once found the deep mountain wooded retreat where the two lived but returned in defeat, his skills inferior to theirs.
In that scene, the two beauties, one in red and one in white, leapt agilely through the bamboo, their stunning, city-overthrowing faces seen only in a brief flash.
And in the final scene, the two still hadn't reconciled, but when the enemy army from the Foreign State ruthlessly attacked and slaughtered the townspeople, they stood back to back, joining forces to repel one enemy after another.
In the end, they died together.
Not until the moment before death did they bow their heads in reconciliation.
