Village
Fu Qingzhu (Lau Kar Leung),
a retired executioner from the previous dynasty,
feels a moral obligation to try and put a stop to
this brutality and decides to save Martial Village.
He convinces Wu Yuanyin (Charlie

Mount Heaven in order to seek help from Master Shadow-Glow,
a hermit who is a master of swords and leads a group
of disciples with unimaginable swordsmanship. Together,
their heroic journey begins known as the SEVEN SWORDS.
Returning to Martial Village, they decide for safety’s
sake to move and lead the entire village to a safer
place. Soon they discover that their food and water
has been poisoned, and that all of the escape routes
have been marked with signs leading the enemy directly
to them. There must be an undercover spy in their
midsts; but who is it? With so many things going
wrong and stuck between a narrow gap of life and
death, the situation is further complicated by the
emergence of an unexpected and unwelcome love triangle…
