Googled the director's name and couldnt find the same movie (on IMDB), sorry Mark. Unrelated but he made a film called The Absurd Brave, followed by Lady 9 Flower.
Looked up one of the actresses (Chang Mei Yao) and HKMDB doesnt list in her filmography :?

I found it interesting though that part of the title is the same as "Xia Nu" (aka A Touch of Zen)

If it was that easy, I would've found it... ;)

I've seen The Absurd Brave, don't think I liked it.

It means Chivalrous Female.
