The plot summary in this article or section is too long or detailed compared to the rest of the article.
Please edit the article to focus on discussing the work rather than merely reiterating the plot.

In the WuXia World, everyone knows Kung Fu. Usually, there are three types of people: The Good, The Bad and anyone else is neutral. The Good people are known as 正道; in F2F, they are 白道 (The White Force), and are the ones who fight the Bad and bring justice to the people. The Bad people are usually the demons known as 邪道; in F2F, they are 黑道 (The Black Force) who want to bring darkness to the world. These two forces are always at war and in F2F, they are amidst the Golden Seal Battle.

The evil ones always try to destroy the world, and the good ones always try to stop the evil ones. There are also some in between, and they either 'retire' from the WuXia World, or they do not want to be involved. In F2F, Frankie Lam and Raymond Lam are these types of people, as they do not want to be involved but end up helping the White Force.

In the White Force, there are a variety of groups of people, with each knowing a different style of Kung Fu. Each group is very proud of itself, which explains why the White Force does not like to work together often unless the world is in danger of ending. In the Black Force, there is usually just a group of demons who listen to one boss and try to destroy the world while working together.

In a war against the Evil, the White Force and the Black Force have a Golden Seal Battle every five years. Each force selects five people to represent its community. Whichever side wins the battle has control of the WuXia World for the next five years. However, over the years, the Black Force became more evil than before, and their goal evolved to destroy all the Good to allow the Evil power to control the world. This goal is called 魔长道消 (Evil power in control over the good power, meaning the end of the world).

The head of the White Force is the Flying Fish Village with John Chiang as the leader of the White Force. His best students are 四小飞鱼 (Four Small Flying Fish). In the White Force, the five people who were supposed tostupd represent the community were secretly killed, and hence the series, Face to Fate, begins. In order to participate in the next Golden Seal Battle, the White Force has to look for five more talented people to fight the Black Force. Frankie Lam, the physiognomic; Raymond Lam, the doctor; Tavia Yeung, the third fish are on the mission to look for five talented fighters.

During the mission, we also learn the story of each main character. Frankie and the Black Force actually have a secret relationship, Raymond has a deadly disease that makes him looks older, Tavia is the daughter of a demon of the Black Force, etc. As the story progresses, the three do find five more people to battle. Unfortunately, one of them is killed, forcing Frankie Lam's character to replace him.

Meanwhile, Raymond meets the love of his life, Selena Li, who also has a secret identity. Because of this secret identity, the White Force does not like Selena. Because there was a character that deeply wounded Selena, Raymond's feelings became more apparent. And as a result, he joined the Black Force.
