(Synopsis)
It's toward the end of the Ching Dynasty in China and a 200 year old feud known as the deadly Eagle Claw society has eliminated all styles except for the Snake Fist style of martial arts.
An evil Eagle Claw master known as Lord Sheng Kuan (Hwang Jang-Lee) is obsessed with eliminating any member of the Snake Fist schools. Sheng Kuan and his clan go out to hunt down the last practitioner of the Snake Fist, Grandmaster Pai Cheng-Tien ('Simon' Yuen Siu-Tien).
Pai Cheng-Tien goes into hiding disguised as a beggar while searching for his last surviving student (Feng Ke-An) not knowing that he was killed by Sheng Kuan. Pai Cheng-Tien is also unaware that the town he's hiding in is infested with Sheng Kuan's men.
One day, an abused poor orphan named Chien Fu (Jackie Chan) "who can't fight and has no friends except for his cat" finds Pai Cheng-Tien being bullied around by rivals of the Eagle Claw school. He tries to help the seemingly elderly beggar but knows any martial arts which leaves room for him to witness the effective style of combat Cheng-Tien uses against the foes.
After that incident, Pai Cheng-Tien decides to teach him the Snake Fist style so he can defend himself when trouble arrives but will that be enough to stop Lord Sheng Kuan and his clan when they track them down?
