Synopsis
After the son of a demonic cult leader is murdered, suspicion falls on Lu Xiaofeng, who was seen near the scene. Lanhuzi, the owner of the Silver Hook Gambling House, accuses him in public and then offers a deal: he will help clear Lu's name if Lu recovers a lost artefact that belongs to the cult. Lu travels in search of the object while the cult, the gambling house and other powers in the martial world hunt for him, and he has to work out why so many people want a single item and who stands to gain from his accusation.
