Synopsis

In the early years of the Republic of China, warlords were in power and the country was in chaos. The mysterious treasure, Yu Tai Zhu, which was being pursued by thousands of people, appeared in the world. It was rumored that it contained clues to the "Five Elements Holy Cauldron," which symbolized the emperor's throne.

With the Yu Tai Zhu and the "Holy Cauldron" at the center, a storm was brewing. Revolutionary party members and progressive students launched a movement to protect the national treasure. The Central Plains martial arts community, led by the Five Elements family, actively responded and was determined to eliminate Zhang Si Ye, who was trying to restore the monarchy, and the Japanese Black Dragon Society, who were stealing Chinese national treasures.

Huo Xiaoxie was accidentally involved and protected the national treasure along the way. He faced various difficulties and dangers, relying on his kindness, justice, and intelligence to overcome each obstacle. In the end, he integrated the Five Elements family and made them a reliable force in the revolutionary struggle to "expel the invaders and restore China."
