The bloody sun sets, King Yi is dead, and the Holy Sword has changed hands - but the fire of hope for the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom has not yet been extinguished.
On the banks of the Dadu River, Wing King Shi Dakai was defeated and died. Liu Jing, a rebel general under his command, stole the Demon-Conquering Holy Sword and offered the treasure in exchange for the glory of the Qing court.
Shi Dakai's second son, Shi Jizhong, escaped under the cover of loyal general Shi Yan. The uncle and nephew were determined to regroup the Taiping flag and regain the holy sword. They jointly swore to kill the traitor Liu Jing!
