Asian Drama

A bizarre case from ten years ago involves the Chong Ming Wei, an organization known as China's X-Men. Three young heroes who are either compelled by ideals, identity or curiosity become embroiled in the mystery.

Legend has it that that the 'thirteenth guard' is in charge of the capture of a violent and bloodthirsty supernatural being. Xu He Qiao is a great Ming Dynasty detective. Duan Rong is the cute at times and serious at times martial arts heroine. Duan Jin is a coroner who indulges in his life's work. For their own reasons, they must face off against the series of supernatural occurrences that take place amidst a huge conspiracy.

The story is set in ancient China during the Southern Song Dynasty. Emperor Gaozong is deceived by the treacherous premier Qin Hui and he puts the patriotic general Yue Fei to death. Qin Hui's supporters dominate the imperial court, leading to widespread corruption in the government. Some righteous ministers oppose Qin Hui, but do not dare to challenge him directly, so they form the secret organization Haoxia to undermine his influence. Eight people with special skills and abilities receive invitations to join Haoxia and their heroic quest begins. The plot's development is based on several loosely-connected subplots and short stories, and ends with a grand finale of a showdown between the heroes and Qin Hui's forces.
