Based on a popular martial arts novel in the same title by Tu Kwang-chi, a well-known film director and media veteran, this was his first showcase of his directorship since he joined Cathay. The martial art female lead Melinda Chen plays her very first xia nu role (the feminine swordsperson) in it. Charlie Chin, later a famous actor in Taiwan melodramas, just graduated from the First Cathay Acting Training Course, made his film debut as a loyal member of the Golden Dragon School.
