Late night, ancient dilapidated temple, next to the altar beneath a giant Buddha statue, a middle-aged Wuxia man is resting with his eyes closed. The temple lighting is dim, and candlelight flickers on the altar; the man's clothes are worn, blue-green, with a black cloak, hair tied up, a three-foot long beard, handsome and stern, with a long sword at his waist. A masked assassin leaps down from the rafters to assassinate him. The man flips over, draws his sword to block, sparks fly as the swords clash, he turns and sends the assassin flying with a palm strike, destroying the altar and raising dust; cut to a close-up of the man's sharp eyes beneath his bamboo hat.
