Synopsis:

During the Northern Song dynasty, Qiao Feng, the leader of the Beggars' Sect, was a heroic and chivalrous man who was respected by the whole martial arts world. But he was suddenly accused of being a Khitan, which made him isolated by friends and allies. On his journey to find out about his origin and enemies, Qiao Feng met Azhu the maid from Murong family, and they fell for each other. The two went together through events in Juxian Manor, Yanmen Pass, and the Mirror Lake - until Qiao walked into a deadly trap, and the mastermind behind his troubles was revealed.

 

Side note:

Donnie Yen has stated that one of the problems with adapting wuxia is that the genre features many novels and fictional heroes, but lacks a unified universe. His ambition, therefore, is to build a Chinese wuxia universe, using Qiao Feng's story as a franchise starter in order to promote the Chinese wuxia spirit. In the future, the character may also meet other classic wuxia heroes in the universe, just like "The Avengers" in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Hopefully it is focused on good acting and old school Wuxia choreography, rather than trying to cram too much into the movie and a fast-paced mess.

 

None of that quick fight and over craps these days.
