The Legendary Sibilings (1999) - 40 Episodes

A story about a pair of twins who are separated during birth. Jiang Xiao Yu is a very intelligent and mischievous boy who grew up under the 4 villains. He was taught all the bad and despicable ways, however, no matter how bad he behaved, he's kind by nature.

Hua Wu Que is brought up in Ying Hua Gong under 2 beautiful but cold-blooded sisters, Yao Yue and Lian Xin. They are powerful and well-known in the pugilist world, and feared by many. Unlike Xiao Yuer, Hua Wu Que grew up in a world with no feelings and doesn't know how to laugh or cry and only knows how to follow orders, therefore he doesn't have a mind of his own. However, he is very highly skilled in martial arts whereas Xiao Yuer is too lazy to master them and preferred to use his intelligence to save himself in times of trouble.

Since young, both of them have some kind of connection with each other. When one of them got injured or ill, the other would feel the pain or fall ill as well for no reason. Often, they would also meet each other in their dreams.

As Xiao Yuer grew older, his foster parents couldn't stand his mischievous ways and want him to go out and face the world on his own. He learnt that his parents were killed by the 2 sisters and a person named Jiang Qing who was previously Xiao Yuer's father, Jiang Feng's servant and betrayed he and his wife, Yue Nu when she was almost giving birth to the twins. Thus, Xiao Yuer's task would be to seek revenge for his parents.

The 2 sisters had a hatred for Jiang Feng's sworn brother, Yan Nan Tian who is still recuperating since he was seriously injured when he brought Xiao Yuer into Villain's village 17 years ago. The 2 sisters had separated the twins without anyone's knowledge and wanted Yan Nan Tian to see the two brothers killing each other in front of him. Therefore, they ordered Hua Wu Que to go out and look for a person named Jiang Xiao Yu and kill him.

In the outside world, Xiao Yuer created a lot of troubles but also found some good friends like, Hei Zhi Zhu and Xuan Yuan San Guang. Hua Wu Que who's known to be the disciple of Ying Hua Gong, was respected by many martial arts pugilists. Finally, Xiao Yuer and Hua Wu Que had met and when Hua Wu Que was going to lay his hands on him, Tie Xin Lan or Xiao La Jiao or both would come to his aid.

Xiao Yuer suspected that the present Jiang Bie He is his parents' betrayer, Jiang Qin and tried to find out more about him. In actual fact, Jiang Bie He and his son, Jiang Yu Lang are very evil and ambitious, hoping to conquer the pugilist world but they pretended to be righteous and kind. They know that Xiao Yuer had suspected them and tried to kill him when they were stopped by Yao Yue who want Xiao Yuer to be killed only by Hua Wu Que and no one else.

Although Hua Wu Que was suppose to kill Xiao Yuer, gradually, he begin to feel some kind of unexplainable feeling for him and found it hard to kill him and gradually became friends.
Finally, they still can't avoid this fate but they know that there's sure to be a reason behind why Yao Yue particularly want Xiao Yuer and Hua Wu Que to fight each other and came up with an idea to make Yao Yue reveal the secret......
