Cheng is murdered by a group of thieves and their leader Titus. They leave Cheng's son, Ethan, wounded and left to die. But shortly afterwards a gravedigger finds him and takes care of him.

Healthy again, Ethan discovers that the gravedigger is a kung fu master and trains with his help to avenge his father's death. The master, Master T., can also raise dead warriors, control them, and make them fight. He uses this ability as training for Ethan as well as a defense against enemies.
In his search for Mason, Ethan occasionally meets the ninja Duncon, who was also a student of Master T. Duncon helps Ethan hold off Mason's henchman and show him the way to his home.
