A poisoned mind, a masked avenger, and a mother-daughter death pact in wuxia madness.
Her mind deluded by Elder Three Unsurpassed, Ng Yu-ying is about to surrender the captured Chan Lam to Oh Yu-kan and Ho Yim-wah when his senior master Lee Kei comes to save the day, warding off the conspirators. Restored to sanity by the antidote delivered by her mother, Ng bids a silent farewell and pleads to be made the protege of Black Raksha. With Fairy Crimson Pearl leading the way, Chan rescues Chung Siu-chui and Chor Ling imprisoned at the White-bone Sect and survives the bombings orchestrated by Oh but finds himself cornered by beguiled members of the seven leading martial sects. Ng dons a mask and teams up with 'Little God of Hades' to break the siege, pursuing their nemesis to the Fiery Fire Sect where Chan and cohorts finally eradicate Scholar Four Poisons and Oh, the latter confessing to the murder of Chan's father at his last breath. Ng wields the Raksha Order to avenge her father's death, perishing together with her mother.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Part of the five-film 'Bloody Devil' cycle adapting popular Cantonese wuxia novels, this conclusion exemplifies 1960s Hong Kong cinema's obsession with female swordswomen and operatic tragedy.
Josephine Siao, only 17 here, became Hong Kong's biggest female star—this masked avenger role helped cement her 'girl hero' image before she pivoted to comedy.
