Young Zhang Wuji grows up amid the turmoil, born to parents whose story is intertwined with the legendary blade. Through many trials and tribulations Wuji must develop his martial arts and lead the warring clans toward defending China against the Mongols rather than wasting their lives on senseless attacks and reprisals among the rival clans.
