TL;DR
Wu Ying's quiet winter of training ends when his master and Elder Yang return injured. Master Cheng is dying of the Three Seasons poison, so Wu Ying and Elder Yang set out through the state of Wei to gather the rare antidote's ingredients, with enemies waiting and a sect war approaching (retailer blurbs).
