In Chaotic Times, Wolf Smoke and Blade-Fanged Heroes

Chen Jian, originally named Chen Jiwu, was born into a declining martial family in Tianjin. Sent from childhood to study under Yang Qiaozhi, the "Ghost Leg" master in the frontier region, he trained exceptional kicking techniques and light-body movement.

At age eighteen, his school was massacred by a mysterious force, and burdened with a blood feud, he was forced to be swept into the grand historical tide spanning from the late Qing dynasty to the founding of New China.
