When a sect tries to melt the dragon saber, another sect tries to steal it. During the chaos, So-so, in a mask, steals the dragon saber, then hides among a crowd with masks. The sect kills the masked people who are actually innocent. Fifth brother (Cheung Tsui-san) & third brother join the fray, and third brother ends up with the dragon saber. Later, So-so and her brother use a trap to injure third brother & take the dragon saber. So-so arranges to transport third brother back home to be treated, but a group of monks break his joints.

Fifth brother watches So-so's sect give a demonstration of the dragon saber. Tse Sun snatches the dragon saber, then uses his lion roar to make most of the audience crazy. Tse Sun wants to bring Tsui-san & So-so to a remote island, but their ship sinks. Tse Sun suddenly becomes insane & So-so makes him blind. Tsui-san & So-so escape from Tse Sun. They end up on a tiny ice berg. They get married. Later, they arrive at an unknown island. Tse Sun arrives at the same island the next day.

So-so gives birth to a son & they name him Mo-kei. After nine or ten years, Tsui-san, So-so, and young Mo-kei leave the island & they board a Tin Yeng Gao ship. Upon reaching the mainland, they first meet So-so's father, then they journey to Mo Dong hill. During the journey, Mo-kei is captured by Yun Meng Yi Lou. Tsui-san & So-so arrive at Mo Dong. Third brother somehow recognizes So-so's voice & repeats what she said when he was injured ten years ago. Tsui-san takes responsibility for the many murders committed by So-so & kills himself in front of multiple sects. Sam-fung & So-so rescue Mo-kei, then So-so kills herself. Mo-kei collapses, not due to grief, but because he is poisoned by a lethal cold touch.

In a separate story arc, Sixth brother is engaged to Hiu-fu. Yeung Siu forces them to get married immediately, but they insist on getting Cheung Sam-fung's blessings first. Yeung Siu brings Hiu-fu to see a rare & beautiful sight. Later, in a separate incident, Hiu-fu is poisoned & Yeung Siu cures her. Hiu-fu falls in love with Yeung Siu. Hiu-fu wants Yeung Siu to promise that he will be a one-woman man but he can't promise that. They separate. After 9 months, Hiu-fu gives birth to a girl & she names her Bat-fui.

The people of Mo Dong are able to keep Mo-kei alive, but he will eventually die due to the cold touch. Mo-kei is now a teenager. Sam-fung rescues Chi-yeuk & Yu-chun from the imperial soldiers. The four of them (Sam-fung, Mo-kei, Chi-yeuk, Yu-chun) board a boat. Later, Sam-fung & Mo-kei part. Wu Ching-ngau is a very clever doctor, but he only treats Ming cult people. He agrees to keep Mo-kei alive. Mo-kei studies Ching-ngau's books & he acquires some medical skills.

Mit-juet defeats Golden Flower Granny. Later, Mit-juet kills Hiu-fu for her defiance & this is witnessed by Mo-kei & Bat-fui. Mo-kei sends Bat-fui to her father whom she has never met, then Mo-kei returns to Mo Dong hill. During his solo journey home, he is injured by a dog. The dog owners trick him to reveal Tse Sun's location. Mo-kei & father of the house fall off a cliff to a ledge. Mo-kei goes inside a cave & uncovers Kow Yong Zhan Keng. He masters it. Kow Yong Zhan Keng allows Mo-kei to cure his cold touch.

Mo-kei is now an adult. Father of the house pushes Mo-kei off the ledge. Mo-kei lands in a house & breaks both his legs. Poison girl (Yan Lei or Ju Yi) helps him.

Six sects go to Kwong Meng Deng to exterminate the Ming Cult. Mo-kei tries to save lives. He reluctantly becomes the new head of Ming Cult.

The 6 sects mysteriously disappear. Sixth brother is found with all joints broken. The Ming Cult people finds out that there are many murders in Siu Lam and Ming Cult is the scapegoat. The same hidden message implies that the next sect to be exterminated is Mo Dong. Mo-kei and his Ming Cult people rush to Mo Dong. Knowing that he might die in combat soon, Sam-fung teaches Third Brother Tai Kek Qun while Mo-kei learns it without revealing his identity. The people who are impersonating Ming Cult arrive at Mo Dong & they are revealed to be Chiu Man, Ah Dai, Ah Yi, & Ah Sam.

Mo-kei receives the list for Seven Insects Seven Flowers & the cure for broken joints/bones from Chiu Man. He uses the cures on third uncle & sixth uncle.

Ming Cult finds out that the 6 sects that disappeared are held in a pagoda in the capital. Just before the rescue, Mit-juet forces Chi-yeuk to make an oath to use Mo-kei to get the heaven sword and dragon saber, never marry Mo-kei, and kill Mo-kei & Ming Cult. Failing to follow the oath has severe consequences for Chi-yeuk's grandchildren. Mit-juet also appoints Chi-yeuk as the next head of Ngo-mei and gives her the secret of the heaven sword & dragon saber.

Everyone is safely rescued except for Mit-juet who refuses to let Mo-kei catch her & falls to her death. Chi-yeuk chooses Mo-kei instead of Cheng-xu & Cheng-xu is very upset.

Chiu Man does not like Peng Nam Wong. Before the wedding between Peng Nam Wong & Chiu Man, she gives a hint to Mo-kei & Mo-kei successfully removes Chiu Man from the wedding. Golden Flower Granny abducts Chi-yeuk & brings her to Leng Se Dou. Mo-kei, Chiu Man, & Siu-chiu disguise themselves as the boat crew. At Leng Se Dou, Mo-kei & Tse Sun are re-united after 20 years.

Bo Si (Persian) Ming Cult people arrive at Leng Se Dou to bring Golden Flower Granny back to Bo Si. After a few rounds of fighting that span a few days, Mo-kei's side loses. Ji-si & Siu-chiu return to Bo Si, with Siu-chiu as the new head of Bo Si Ming Cult.

At the last dinner before their return to the mainland, everyone faints due to poison. When they wake up, Chiu Man, heaven sword, dragon saber, & the boat are missing, while Ju Yi is dead. After a few days, a boat passes nearby & everyone returns to the mainland.

Peng Nam Wong places Chiu Man under house arrest. Chiu Man sends a letter to Ming Cult that results in the death of Peng Nam Wong & his people.

In a separate story arc, Bat-fui falls in love with sixth brother and they are eventually married after a few twists & turns.

Seng Kwan captures Chi-yeuk & Tse Sun. Cheng-xu accidentally kills seventh uncle when he is drunk. Chiu Man uses a trick to make Cheng-xu admit his guilt with the other uncles within hearing distance.

Mo-kei rescues Chi-yeuk. Chiu Man lures Mo-kei away from his own wedding with Chi-yeuk. Chi-yeuk returns to Ngo-mei & claims her position as the next head using Kow Yan Pak Kuat Zhao.

Seng Kwan's attempt to exterminate Ming Cult is reversed by Chiu Man, resulting in a major defeat for the imperial troops. Chiu Man turns herself in & is executed. Later, it is revealed that Chiu Man's father used a trick so that Ah Dai is executed instead. Ju Yi is revealed to be alive.

Seven sects and Ming Cult go to Siu Lam to fight for Tse Sun & the dragon saber. Chi-yeuk is the winner. She almost kills Mo-kei. To free Tse Sun, Chi-yeuk and Mo-kei fight The Three Elders. In a fight between Tse Sun & Seng Kwan, Seng Kwan is blinded.

The imperial troops surround Siu Lam and prepare to exterminate all the sects & Ming Cult. Mo-kei uses Mok Mo Wai Xu & defeats the imperial troops. Chi-yeuk asks Mo-kei, between Chi-yeuk, Chiu Man, Siu-chiu, and Ju Yi, who would he choose. Mo-kei gives his reply.

A Ming Cult general poisons Mo-kei & Chiu Man, then fails to kill Chiu Man because Mo-kei faked his succumb to poison. Since Chiu Man is willing to lose her status as Mongolian Kuan Ju to be with Mo-kei, Mo-kei no longer wants to be the head of Ming Cult, to be with Chiu Man. Mo-kei & Chiu Man have a carefree life. After a few years, Mo-kei & Chiu Man meet Chi-yeuk & her husband (Cheng-xu). Chi-yeuk has lost her memory & martial arts skills.
