Twenty years ago, the Zixuan Sword was wielded by a great villain who struck terror into the martial world. Yun Yi, the "Jade Flute Sage," hailed as the "Greatest Swordsman in the Central Plains," was entrusted by the righteous members of the martial world to go to Maoshan and vanquish the demon. The two fell into a deep ravine, their fates unknown. The martial world then returned to the peace of old. Ten years later, the winds of change stirred again, and rumors spread that Zixuan had reappeared. But before long, the waves seemed to recede once more.
Yun Meng and her junior fellow disciple went to Mount Yi, as they did every year, to pay a visit to Uncle Xu. There, they were stunned to learn a world-shaking secret. Carrying the swords they had spent ten years forging, they returned to Yun Mountain to bid their master farewell and set out into the martial world for the first time. Not long after they descended the mountain, they encountered an expert who claimed to be the Zixuan Sword. Pursuing the matter led them to uncover several tangled histories.
Where is the Zixuan Sword, really? Why did she stir up trouble ten years ago? How many Zixuan Swords are there in the martial world? A string of terrible tragedies drives the four brothers to resolve to find the sword manual that can counter the "Wind and Moon Palm."
