The commoner righteous heroes Guo Xiaotian and Yang Tiexin were betrothed, but were later killed by the Jin troops. The Quanzhen Taoistpriest Qiu Chuji made a bet with the Seven Giants of the South: they would each find the descendants of Yang and Guo and teach them martial arts, and then meet 18 years later at the Drunken ImmortalPavilion to compete.

The "WestePoison" Ouyang Feng sought to have his nephew Ouyang Ke marry Huang Rong, and after multiple competitions Guo Jing emerged victorious, but their five teachers were killed onPeach Blossom Island, leading to a misunderstanding that caused them to separate.

Meanwhile, Yang Kang was seduced by wealth andpower, and allied himself with the Jin. An archery contest led him to fall in love with Mu Nianci, the righteous daughter of Yang Tiexin, but he remained obsessed with evil, repeatedly harming Guo Jing, Huang Rong, and other jianghu heroes, and helping the Jin obtain the "Martial Grandmaster's Legacy."
