PLOT

Locals are concerned with the growing influence and presence of Westerners and foreigners in Fat-san. General Lau Wing-fuk of the Black Flag Army approaches Wong Fei-hung and requests that Wong helps him recruit and train a local militia of civilian martial artists to help defend the town. Among those recruited by Wong include the butcher "Porky" Wing and an American-educated Chinese called "Bucktooth" So.

Wong meets Siu-kwan, who is around the same age as him, and whom he addresses respectfully as "13th Aunt". Although they are not direct blood relations, her father was a sworn brother of Wong's grandfather and that technically makes her Wong's elder. Romantic feelings between them gradually develop but it is considered to be taboo in traditional Chinese society and their relationship is often restrained.
