To Pa and several members of his Eagle Claw Fighting Clan are repulsed in their attempt to rob government gold by Chen Chen Chow, the Lightning Whipper. The clan does a second attack and is successful in getting the gold and also fatally wounding the Lightning Whipper. However, Lei Peng executes a surprise move, gets the gold, and plans to return it to the government. But the vengeful To Pa convinces the police that Lei Peng is the robber, and Lei Peng is arrested and jailed. To Pa murders Lei Peng's entire family, with the exception of a son who escapes and is befriended by the mysterious Lady Tieh. To Pa gets the gold again and takes it to his hideout. Then Chen and Mu Lan, the Lighting Whipper's son and daughter, rescue Lei Peng from jail. Lady Tieh, Lei Peng, Chen and Mu Lan band together as the Fearless Fighters and go after To Pa.
