Synopsis:

Tsui Hark's violent retelling of the One-Armed Swordsman comes off as a revisionist spaghetti western set in Ancient China. Zhao Wen-Zhou stars as On, a tormented orphan who has worked at a blade manufacturer since his father died years ago. When he discovers that his father died saving his master from certain death at the hands of Fei Lung (Xiong Xin-Xin), he leaves with intent to gain revenge.
Ling (Sang Ni), his master's daughter, has a decidedly stranger affliction. She imagines the world of Gong Wu to be her own private playground of men who fight over her. On is one of her targets, and he bears a scar she gave him when they were young. When On leaves, she runs after him and is caught by some bandits plaguing the countryside. On saves her but loses his arm in the process, becoming "useless" and unable to seek the revenge he must. He falls into a chasm, lost to his former life.
While On recuperates far away, his rival Iron Head (Moses Chan Ho) and Ling set out in search for On, but instead of getting any real results they find themselves immersed deeper in Ling's Gong Wu. Iron Head "saves" a comely prostitute (Valerie Chow) and then uses her for his own pleasure, which horrifies Ling. Meanwhile, On is persecuted by those around him as a cripple. Fed up, he takes his father's broken blade and trains himself in a dizzying martial arts style utilizing speed and athleticism to compensate for his lost limb.
