Jiang Yi Yan

Yen Shih San (Peter Ho) is a heavily tattooed and critically ill sword fighter who is enlisted by Mi Yung Chiu Ti (Jiang YiYan), the princess of a powerful clan, to help her seek revenge on another highly skilled sword fighter, who has angered her by rejecting her romantic advances. He is told that if he does so, he will become officially recognized as the top sword fighter in the realm. Yen Shih San is reluctant, but when he learns that the rival swordsman has died, he decides to buy a coffin and wait for death in a cemetery.

But Fate isn’t finished with him just yet: Ah Chi (Lin Geng Xin) is a former martial arts trainee with a secret identity. Many years ago, he turned his back on fighting. He is now an odd job man who works in a brothel. But when he rushes to defend Li (Jiang Meng Jie), a prostitute at the brothel, from attackers, the duo finds their lives are now in danger. They flee to a village, but the thugs follow and attack the villagers, too. Mi Yung Chiu Ti is also in pursuit. Yen decides to intervene – but finds he may have to fight an unexpectedly deadly opponent...

This film is based on a 1975 novel by Gu Long, which also spawned a 1977 movie named “Death Duel.”

“Sword Master” is a 2016 Chinese movie that was directed by Derek Yee.

Sword Master

⚔️ Warriors Team ⚔️

Under the rule of Emperor Huizong, the late Northern Song Dynasty found itself in a state of instability and unrest when counterfeit money began circulating widely throughout the capital. Tasked with finding those responsible for the surge in counterfeit currency, the Department Six Constabulary, led by their strict commander, Liu (Cheng Tai Shen), set out to do just that. Following a tip-off, the Department Six investigators rush to apprehend the suspect, only to find both the suspect and the evidence are already being taken into custody by an unknown secret agency commissioned by the Emperor himself.

Known as the Divine Constabulary, this heretofore unknown force has been working on the Emperor's behalf, entirely in secret. But with their presences now known by all, the commander of Department Six takes their existence as a personal threat. Hoping to bring down the rival agency, Liu secretly orders his best man, Leng Xue (Deng Chao), to infiltrate the Divine Constabulary and find a way to bring it down. Little does Liu know that his own agency has recently been infiltrated by agents working for the counterfeit currency mastermind.

With the Divine Constabulary spearheaded by Leng Xue and his comrades, Wu Qing (Liu Yi Fei), Zhui Ming (Ronald Cheng), and Tie Shou (Collin Chou), better known as The Four, a much more sinister plot than simple counterfeit currency is soon uncovered. Will the rival agencies find a way to put aside their differences for the greater good, or will their constant quarrels allow the entire world to fall into chaos?

Adapted from Woon Swee Oan’s novel series, “The Four Great Constables”, “The Four” is a 2012 Hong Kong wuxia film directed by Gordon Chan and Janet Chun.
