SaritaLinda18 A Japanese princess is sent as a gift to a Chinese king in order to bring the peace between the two nations, but she is kidnapped by someone who is impersonating Chu Liu Xiang (Meng Fei) and this one is now chased in all the kingdom as a criminal.
He is helped by his three women and two men friends and the Princess is saved by Abbot White, who seems to be a Chu Liu Xiang's enemy.
During the movie, we learn that the Japanese general who came in order to protect the Princess is in fact the plot instigator and he becomes Abbot White's friend and both of them plot against Meng Fei.
After many twists, the plot is discovered and Chu Liu Xiang wins, as always.
Though the fights are good,I'm a little bit disappointed by this movie : Meng Fei appears only in two or three scenes and David Chiang, who is cast as a guest, only appears in two very short scenes, but we don't know who he is and why he fights on Chu Liu Xiang's side ! He doesn't want this one to fight with Abbot White because he wants to kill this one himself but at the end of the movie, we see him fighting with Abbot White, but we don't see the end of the fight because it's the end credits and we don't know who won !!!
As it often happens with these Gu Long's adaptations, there are a lot of explanations which are missing and we don't know why there is hate between two persons, or when they already fight each other and why...
I only give a 3/5 to this movie.
