The rebellious Red Flower Society, led by their charismatic chief Chan Gar-lok (Vincent Zhao from THE BLADE and ONCE UPON A TIME IN CHINA IV and V), attempts to assassinate the Ching Emperor. But a shocking discovery leads to a fierce showdown and Chan's exile to the Western frontier. Together with the nomads, Chan executes a daring return to the capital and an audacious plan to capture the Emperor once and for all.
