I cried when Yang Guo ran around tried to find His GoGo. However this time, once I started, I was hooked. The same friend encouraged me to continued the second one The ROCH. I finished it with mix feeling whether or not if I like it, because I hate Guo Jing, the main protagonist. At the time when I read, I have not watched any adaptations neither movies nor TV (my parents were very strict about TV). ![]() I first read the trilogy when I was in High School. The trilogy comprised three volumes The Legend Of Condor Hero (LOCH), The Return of The Condor Hero (ROCH) and The Heavenly Sword and Dragon Saber (HSDS). The Condor Trilogy was an epic novel by JY. So I wrote the below to explain what I wrote in the title. However I feel the opposite I hate Guo Jing, I feel sorry for Yang Guo and I love Zhang Wuji. At the end of the novel, he is finally reunited with Xiaolongnü and they are recognized as heroes.Most people who read the Condor Trilogy by JY tended to like Guo Jing and Yang Guo more than Zhang Wuji. Yang serves his nation by helping the Han Chinese of Song defeat the Mongol invaders. His adventures gradually mould him into a courageous pugilist, whose prowess matches the Five Greats of his age. While Yang is wandering the land alone, he meets several formidable pugilists and a giant Condor. Finally, after their reunion and marriage, Xiaolongnü leaves Yang again, owing to her belief she cannot recover from a fatal poison, and promises to meet him again sixteen years later. ![]() Throughout the story, their love meets with several tests, such as the misunderstandings that threaten to tear them apart and the encounter with Gongsun Zhi. However, their love is forbidden by societal laws in the Chinese Confucianist society of that time. By then, Yang sees Xiaolongnü more than merely his highly-respected teacher, as he has gradually developed romantic feelings for her. They live together in the tomb for many years until Yang grows up. He is saved by Xiaolongnü, a mysterious maiden of unknown origin, and becomes her disciple. Yang flees and ventures unknowingly into the nearby Tomb of the Living Dead, where the Ancient Tomb Sect is housed. At Quanzhen, Yang is often picked on and bullied by his fellow students and his teacher Zhao Zhijing is biased against him. He is raised briefly by the couple Guo Jing and Huang Rong before being sent to the Quanzhen Sect for better guidance in moral values and orthodox martial arts. The protagonist, Yang Guo, is the orphaned son of the antagonist, Yang Kang, of the first novel The Legend of the Condor Heroes. Alternate English titles are "The Giant Eagle and Its Companion", and "Divine Eagle, Chivalric Companion". Original Chinese title is "Shen Diao Xia Lü". Historially set at the end the Song Dynasty and at the beginning of the Mongol Yuan Dynasty, the story revolves around Yang Guo and his lover Xiaolongnü in their adventure in the Wulin fraternity, which does not approve of their taboo love between master and apprentice. The novel is the second part of the Condor Trilogy (The Legend of the Condor Heroes, The Return of the Condor Heroes, and The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber). Return of the Condor Heroes is a Chinese Martial Arts (Wuxia) novel by Louis Cha (Jin Yong), the biggest-selling author by far in the world of Chinese novels.
