During the Qing dynasty , during the reign of Emperor Kangxi , the two sons of the emperor, the fourth heir to Yongzheng and the fourteenth - are fighting for the right to become the next ruler of China. In order to tilt the scales to his side, Yongzheng receives help from rebel , whose niece, , helps to find the will of the emperor so that Yongzheng can correct his will and thus make himself the future head of state instead of Inti. Having become a new emperor, Yongzheng expels Inti and “forgets” his promise made to Lyulian, not to be cruel to the people. When Liulyan comes to the palace to remind Yongzhen of the promise, the emperor decides to eliminate the rebel. Having done this, he becomes Xunyan's enemy, who subsequently joins forces with the bodyguard of the fourteenth heir, , to deal with the usurper, who by that time attracted additional assistance in the form of a Japanese martial arts master, nicknamed Cold-blooded.

Reviews
Martin Sandison (easternKicks.com) declares the film “a less well-known gem with non-stop action that combines fencing and proprietary acrobatic exercises from director Lou Jungyu” [6] .
Jim McLennan (Girls With Guns) writes that the film "occupies an uncomfortable position between the old and the new school of Hong Kong cinema , and you can understand why the star Shaw Brothers weakened and more and more was overshadowed by Golden Harvest " [7] .
