For as far back as he can recall, nationalist martial-arts expert Hung Hei-Kwun (Yen) has idolized mysterious Sun Moon Sect leader "Red Dragon" -- whose hatred for the Ching Dynasty is well known throughout the land. When Hei-Kwun learns that "Red Dragon" is actually his father, Hung Ting-Nam, he quickly resolves to meet his father and idol face to face. Though Hei-Kwun's plans are thwarted when Ting-Nam's plane fails and the powerful leader is killed, Hei-Kwun vows to travel to the Shaolin Temple and regroup the now disbanded Sun Moon Sect so that he may avenge his father's untimely death.
