Synopsis:
I-Ching receives an urgent phone call from Hong Kong causing him to rush to find passage that will take him there. Diana joins I-Ching as passengers on a cargo plane piloted by I-Ching's friend Patrick McGuire. Also on the plane is another passenger, Lu Shan.
During the flight a group of armed men emerge from shipping containers on the plane. They attack Lu Shan, demanding that she give them what they are seeking. Wonder Woman and I-Ching fight off the men. After the fight, I-Ching discovers the Lu Shan is in possession of half a broken coin which matches the other half which he carries. This identifies her as his lost daughter.
When the travelers arrive in Hong Kong, Lu Shan invites her saviors to come with her to meet her employer. On the way, the group is again attacked by members of the Tiger Tong. Despite the danger, they safely arrive at Lu Shan's destination only to learn that she is working for Doctor Cyber.
Cyber reveals an extortion plot that she will carry out using devices planted around Hong Kong that can cause earthquakes. I-Ching is then shot by Lu Shan who blames him for the death of her mother. Before the situation can be concluded, they are interrupted by Lum Fong of the Tiger Tong. Cyber kills him, but a stray machine gun blast dumps a brazier of hot coals into Cyber's face. Lu Shan takes the injured Doctor to safety, while Wonder Woman rushes the wounded I-Ching to the hospital with the help of McGuire and police inspector David McLean.
