Synopsis

In the early Southern Song, two sworn brothers’ families are destroyed after a Taoist priest names their unborn sons Guo Jing and Yang Kang. Guo Jing grows up on the Mongolian steppe, slow-witted but honest, trained by the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan and favoured by Genghis Khan. Sent south, he meets the brilliant, mischievous Huang Rong, daughter of the Peach Blossom Island master, and falls in love. Yang Kang, raised as a Jin prince, chooses wealth and power over his true heritage. As masters, villains and secret manuals draw both young men into the jianghu’s feuds, Guo Jing’s persistence and Rong’er’s wit shape him into a true hero.
