Synopsis
Li mubai, a great Xia of the generation, wanted to quit the world and entrusted her confidant Yu Xiulian to bring her Qingming sword to the capital as a gift for Lord Baylor to collect. This ancient sword with a history of 400 years has hurt countless people. Li mubai hopes that such a major decision can show his determination to leave the world. Unexpectedly, the sword was stolen that night. Yu Xiulian stepped forward to stop her from fighting with the sword robber, but at last the sword robber escaped with the help of her accomplices. Some people see a masked man disappear in the house of Lord Yu, the nine door governor. Yu Xiulian also thinks that Lord Yu can't escape. The nine gate governor is in charge of the public security of the capital. Lord Yu has just been transferred from Xinjiang to take up his post. Lord Baylor neither believes that Lord Yu is related to this, nor should he act rashly, so as not to affect the overall situation. in order not to complicate the matter, Yu Xiulian has been secretly investigating the whereabouts of the sword, and she probably guessed that it was Yu Jiaolong, Miss Yu Fu, who did it in a moment of anger. Yu Xiulian conceals the news from Li mubai, who comes to the capital. She just wants to force Yu Jiaolong to return her sword to avoid harming her kindness. However, Yu Xiulian's hard work failed. When the masked man really returned the sword, he inevitably had a positive confrontation with Li mubai. And Li mubai found the trace of the blue eyed fox who killed the master. At this time, Li mubai couldn't stop. Yu Jiaolong was secretly accepted as a disciple by the blue eyed fox who had been hiding in the Jade House since she was a child. She learned the best martial arts of Wudang school from the secret script, and has long been outstanding. When she was in Xinjiang, yujiaolong had a lifelong love affair with Luo Xiaohu, a local bandit named "bantianyun" without telling her father. Now she is in Beijing, and her father wants her to marry. On a spur of the moment, yujiaolong rushed out of the house and wandered in the rivers and lakes. Yu Jiaolong, who is self willed and arrogant, has no place to vent her bitterness in her heart. She is a little devil in the world. Yu Xiulian and Li mubai cherished yujiaolong, and their talent was rare. Their painstaking guidance was always ineffective. In the final fight with the blue eyed fox, Li mubai died of poisoning the needle to save Yujiao's dragon body. Yu Jiaolong went down to Wudang Mountain under the guidance of Yu Xiulian, but she couldn't face Luo Xiaohu. After a long night of love with Luo Xiaohu, she threw herself into the ravine.
