During the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, due to the decay of the imperial court, Japanese pirates invaded the southeast coast. Thousands of miles of coastal defense were in emergency. Japanese pirates colluded with wealthy families to rob and massacre people. The right deputy governor of the capital, Zhu Wan, the governor of Zhejiang, sent troops to suppress the situation, strictly inspected the smuggling merchant ships, and blocked the Japanese pirates. This move offended the interests of the court nobles headed by the Donglin Party, and he was later forced to commit suicide. From then on, no one dared to ask about the coastal defense matters, and the Japanese pirates became more and more rampant... Based on this, the story tells a story of "a great chivalrous man who serves the country and the people" in troubled times.
Folk heroes Wu Jiyuan and Wu Yueshi were hunted down by Japanese pirates. When they died, they entrusted their orphan Wu Hongyue to the Jianghu warlock Wang Xuan. He followed Wang Xuan to study the "Book of Changes" and the art of war since he was a child. Later, he learned the swordsmanship of Jingchu from Li Liangqin, and from the hexagrams, he learned the unique skill of "drawing the Yao and changing the image" to chase the wind sword. During an ambush on pirates, he rescued Xu Hai, a borderland native who was captured to work as a boatman. Xu Hai was good at witchcraft, and the two became brothers in life and death. Later, Xu Hai fell in love with Xu Xiaoyun, the daughter of Xu Jie of the Hanlin Academy, but Xu Xiaoyun fell in love with Wu Hongyue. Wu Hongyue left Jiayuguan to fulfill her brother's wish. Ten years later, the brothers reunited again, but Xu Hai became a famous pirate leader in Jiangnan. Faced with Xu Hai's frame-up, and between her former lover and brotherhood, Wu Hongyue took over the task at the critical moment, took up the banner of her ancestors, and embarked on a long road to fight against Japan.
