''Dragon Swamp'' is a 1969 Creator/ShawBrothers martial arts film directed by Lo Wei, starring Creator/ChengPeiPei, Creator/YuehHua, Creator/LoLieh and also featuring Creator/ChengPeiPei (yes).
A powerful glowing green sword known as the Jade Dragon, forged several dynasties ago and stored in the Lingshan Chunyang Monastery, is the object of desire for many clans in the martial world. When the daughter of the Monastery's Clan Leader, Fan Ying (Cheng Pei-pei) gets seduced and the sword is stolen, Fan Ying is sentenced to exile in the dreaded Dragon Swamp.
17 years later, Fan Ying's daughter, Qing-erh (Cheng Pei-pei) is seeking the Jade Dragon, when she learned about her mother's fate and the Dragon Swamp. Teaming up with a chivalrous hero Xi Zheng Yuan (Yueh Hua) and an opposing clan leader Yu Jiang (Lo Lieh), Qing-erh travels to the swamp to uncover the truth.
