Chapter 988 -916: A Lifetime Mistake on First Meeting Yang Guo (Chu Kuang)

Blue Star has had five epic awkward moments.

The first was due to Xian Yu’s bilingual “Farewell Kiss”;

The second was due to Yi An’s “Lotus Lantern,” where Erlang Shen, Yang Jian, underwent a massive image reversal.

And today-

The third epic awkward moment occurred.

Triggered by Chu Kuang’s “The Return of the Condor Heroes,” which swept across Zhao Continent!

When the data showed that “The Return of the Condor Heroes” was the craziest selling book in Zhao Continent, all Zhao people were embarrassed, their toes could dig another continent right then and there…

Damn, damn, damn, damn, damn!

Do we really have to be slapped in the face like this?

Readers in Zhao Continent instantly blushed.

They were just disparaging “The Return of the Condor Heroes” in their statements, and then the media used professional data to tell everyone:

How popular this book really was in Zhao Continent!

“Meow meow meow?”

“Hahahahahahaha, weren’t they adamant about not watching ‘The Return of the Condor Heroes’? Were all these book buyers fake Zhao people?”

“Slapped in the face on the spot!”

“Zhao Continent: We really don’t care for something like ‘The Return of the Condor Heroes’!”

“Got visuals!”

“Classic case of the mouth saying no, but the body saying yes!”

“These Zhao people are basically the model of tsundere, acting like Lu Wushuang calling Yang Guo an idiot while her eyes are filled with affection!”

“It really is Zhao Continent where martial arts flourishes.”

Netizens from Qin, Qi, Chu, Yan, and Han burst into laughter immediately, poking fun with all sorts of jokes and ironic comments; it was as lively as a party!

Data doesn’t lie.

This blow was almost as harsh as when they found out about Little Dragon Maiden’s loss of chastity in the story!

This made countless Zhao people furious; they immediately organized several waves of campaigns to send razor blades to Chu Kuang!

Damn it!

It all seemed to be Chu Kuang’s fault!

…

Of course, not all Zhao people felt embarrassed.

For example, Mr. Canyang, the “Beidou of Martial Arts World” in Zhao Continent.

In the evening.

Through a social media platform in Zhao Continent, Mr. Canyang published an article, “My Views on ‘The Return of the Condor Heroes’,” speaking highly of the book.

He added a sentimental interpretation of “The Legend of the Condor Heroes”:

“It’s often said that once one sees Yang Guo, one is mistaken for life; hence we’ve mentioned the love regrets of Lu Wushuang, Cheng Ying, Gongsun Lue, and Guo Xiang.

But the depiction of love in ‘The Return of the Condor Heroes’ goes beyond these.

Wu Santong, for instance, actually loved his goddaughter He Yuanjun, but couldn’t confess due to their statuses;

Li Mochou was also madly in love with Zhan Yuan, unfortunately doomed not to have her wishes fulfilled, leading her to mad revenge.

In the end.

Zhan Yuan and He Yuanjun both died.

Leaving behind a half-mad Wu Santong and a venomous sorceress.

These stories are all quite sigh-worthy.

Likewise,

Lin Chaoying was deeply in love with Wang Chongyang, but he frustratingly refused to accept it, preferring to lose rather than embrace love.

The Tomb of the Living Dead and Chongyang Palace thus dumbly faced each other until they both died, turning into stories recounted by others.

It took years after Guo Fu married Yelü Qi to realize she had Yang Guo in her heart; before that, Da Wu and Xiao Wu were head over heels for her, nearly sacrificing their lives for her.

The master of Passionless Valley, Gongsun Zhi, is a tragic figure.

However, his and Qiu Qianchi’s twisted affections are also quite poignant.

In the end, this pair of foes also died together, turned to mush, inseparable by anyone.

So when someone asks me, between ‘The Return of the Condor Heroes’ and ‘The Legend of the Condor Heroes,’ which is better, my answer is that each has its unique merits.

“Although ‘The Return of the Condor Heroes’ failed to recreate the grandeur and expansiveness of ‘The Legend of the Condor Heroes,’ it surpassed it in terms of the bizarre twists and turns of its story and the intensity of its emotional portrayals.”

Shortly after Mr. Canyang published this review,

Qingyun, a prominent figure in the Martial Arts World, just as renowned as Mr. Canyang, reposted:

“Regarding which of ‘The Return of the Condor Heroes’ or ‘The Legend of the Condor Heroes’ is more brilliant, I’ve also considered this question. However, the conclusion I reached actually involves analyzing the characteristics of Yang Guo and Guo Jing.

I had previously read Professor Wang’s comment stating that Guo Jing represents Confucianism.

I agree with this view.

Considering it from the perspective of the various schools of thought, Yang Guo embodies freedom, pursues individuality and unconstrainedness, and has a naturally carefree spirit, which indeed symbolizes the core ideas of Taoism.

The difference between ‘The Return of the Condor Heroes’ and ‘The Legend of the Condor Heroes’ is the difference between Taoism and Confucianism.

Looking at the stories before and after, the conflict between Yang Guo and Guo Jing, or the result of the Taoist and Confucian dispute, really ended in a draw.

In the end, Guo Jing acknowledged the marital status of Yang Guo and the Little Dragon Maiden.

Yang Guo, in turn, accepted Guo Jing’s teaching that ‘the greatest hero is he who serves his country and his people.’

Therefore, there is no superior book.

As neither Yang Guo nor Guo Jing could best the other.”

Zhao Continent’s two towering figures of the Martial Arts World combined the plot of ‘The Legend of the Condor Heroes’ to provide a deeper interpretation of ‘The Return of the Condor Heroes,’ which can be seen as the Martial Arts World’s view of Chu Kuang’s two works.

After monitoring various reviews, Lin Yuan knew that the storm around ‘The Return of the Condor Heroes’ had completely subsided.

However, upon seeing the startling ‘blade chart’ on his blog, Lin Yuan sneezed violently, unable to calculate just how many people were secretly cursing him behind his back.

There were even more severe instances!

More cruel than the dragon princess’s loss of chastity!

Lin Yuan slyly smirked, then suddenly logged into Chu Kuang’s account and posted a status:

“[I actually planned to kill off the Little Dragon Maiden, but later, out of sympathy for their bittersweet fate, I changed my mind…]”

This was not Lin Yuan spouting nonsense.

This was the original words mentioned by Jin Yong in an interview.

Some felt Jin Yong was compelled by reader pressure to let the Little Dragon Maiden and Yang Guo reunite.

The old master refuted this, stating he would not change his plot due to readers’ opinions:

He did not kill the Little Dragon Maiden simply because he was also moved by the love between Yang Guo and the Little Dragon Maiden and felt sympathy, so he couldn’t bring himself to do it.

Whether this is true or not is unknown.

Regardless, readers were terrified when they saw Chu Kuang’s post and immediately flooded his comments section:

“You dare!”

“If you had killed the Little Dragon Maiden, I would really have blacklisted you and never read your books again!”

“Good thing your conscience got the better of you.”

“If the Little Dragon Maiden had died, then what would ‘The Return of the Condor Heroes’ be about? Yang Guo certainly wouldn’t have lived alone!”

“If both the male and female leads had died, then no one would read this book anymore.”

“Okay then.”

“Thank you, old rascal, for sparing her.”

“I’m genuinely amazed by this guy, he writes so torturously, but in the end, we still have to thank him for his mercy?”

“Because he is Chu Kuang!”

“What kind of Kuang?”

“The brutally crazy kind!”

“What do they say about mistaking Yang Guo for a lifetime?”

“It was definitely mistaking Chu Kuang for a lifetime!”

Readers were genuinely frightened because Chu Kuang wasn’t new to killing off main characters!

Other authors might joke about such things, but this guy really could do it!

Lin Yuan glanced at the comments, seeing the fearful messages from readers, and his resentment towards the blades immediately dissipated.

Heh.

You guys use blades to scare me.

And you think I won’t scare you too?
