The Return of the Condor Heroes
The Return of the Condor Heroes (simplified Chinese: 神雕侠侣; traditional Chinese: 神鵰俠侶; pinyin: Shén Diāo Xiá Lǚ; Jyutping: San4 Diu1 Haap6 Leoi5) is a classic Wuxia novel by Louis Cha. The second part of the trilogy. Set around twenty years after the Legend of the Condor Heroes, the Mongolian hordes are invading China; Guo Jing and his wife, Huang Rong, are desperately trying to save the city of XiangYang from falling to the Mongolians. Although Guo Jing and his wife are featured prominently in the novel, the real hero of the book is Yang Guo, the orphaned son of Yang Kang (sworn brother/enemy of Guo Jing). Yang Guo has had a troubled upbringing, and is more of a rebel of the traditional themes. He meets a beautiful young woman called Little Dragon Girl, who teaches him martial arts. Later they fell in love, but due to fateful circumstances, they have to wait another sixteen years to be finally together.
