Lady of Steel is a 1970 wuxia film directed by Ho Meng-hua, and is one of the numerous Shaw Brothers martial arts film starring Cheng Pei-Pei and Yueh Hua as an ass-kicking Battle Couple, released in the peak of their fame.Fang Ying-qi (Cheng) is an orphan who lost her family due to a betrayal twenty years ago. Adopted by a monk who is a retired martial arts master and trained to be an elite swordswoman to someday avenge her family, Fang sets off to Da Kun Mountain, a wretched hive filled with criminals, where her family's killers are expected to be there. Along the way, she will be assisted by a beggar that turns out to be another master swordsman, Shang Yi (Yueh), who had his own reasons for assisting Fang. | |

Retirony | |
| Lady of Steel / int_c8a8c595 | comment |
Retirony: Security Chief Fang Ning, in the opening scene, is stated to be completing one last escort mission for delivering silver for the refugees before he gets to leave the business together, which is why he brought along his wife and his young daughter along for the trip. How ironic is it that this happens to be the same mission where he gets double-crossed and having his whole crew, including himself (save for his young daughter), getting killed. | |

Battle Couple | |
| Lady of Steel / int_db39ccfd | comment |
Battle Couple: Fang Ying-qi and Chin Shang-Yi, respectively played by Cheng Pei-pei and Yueh Hua, two actors who frequently get to kick ass side-by-side in oh so many films of this genre. | |

Contrived Coincidence: Fang Ying-qi and Chin Shang-Yi first meet each other and get into a fight, and it just so happens that it occurs in an inn owned by legions of bandit mooks that are waiting to get the drop on them both. | |

Expy: Chin Shang-Yi is a seemingly buffoonish beggar played by Yueh Hua who turns out to be a hidden kung-fu master, and inevitably helps a heroine played by Cheng Pei-pei to take down a common enemy. Just like Drunken Knight four years ago. | |
