Out of the ashes of the temple ruins, Crane rises-with vengeance in his heart.
Revenge is not in Crane’s heart-until a mercenary army storms the temple and slaughters the beloved female Grandmaster Myling.
Among them is the Westerner, White Crane, a spiritual master of the martial arts and protector of the innocent. Only the revered Wudang monks dare stand in Kahn’s way in order to protect the very soul of China.
China is in unrest, as the Republic falls prey to Warlords like Kahn Xin, who holds an entire province hostage to the opium trade-and destroys all who oppose him.
