Ling Fung and Tong Bik are a happily married couple belonging to a clan of famous sword smiths, however one night their extended family are suddenly massacred, their riches seized and their reputations ruined. Each believing themselves the sole remaining survivor of the attack, Ling Fung and Tong Bik, each individually plot their revenge.
Ling Fung becomes a masked swordsman, an enforcer for a powerful eunuch faction at court, promised that if he serves loyally he will be aided in his revenge. Tong Bik remarries into a family of caravan guards and seeks to use jianghu connections to find and destroy her enemy.
As the path of the two cross again decades later, Ling Fung comes to realise that he has become the puppet of the man who destroyed his family and happiness. However to take his revenge Ling Fung must now first remove the eunuch's new puppet, Mang Lui, his and Tong Bik's son, who they had both long given up for dead.
