![]() Guo Jing was really stupid to not recognize that. Of cause, Temüjin’s sight was not just at the Jin, he wanted the whole Central Plains. The fall of the Jin, as a result, created a power vacuum. Guo Jing helped Temüjin destroyed the whole Jin Empire because of just one Jin person Wanyan Honglie. JY wrote how Guo Jing raged to take revenge had caused the fall of the Song and million of innocent lives. To take revenge for his farther, he was used by Temüjin. His mother always reminded him of who he was and how his farther was killed. Guo Jing grew up on the far north grassland under the protection of Temüjin. A Jin prince Wanyan Honglie and a corrupt Song’s official (Duan Tiande) killed his father. In the setting that JY wrote, the Jin was an archenemy of Guo Jing. The Song had been at war with the Jin and the Song was losing. LOCH started at the time when the Song Dynasty (Southern Song) was very weak, the Song court was full of corrupt officials. Zhang Wuji was engaged to Zhou Zhiruo (Han) but he left her for Zhao Min (Mongol, but to be absolutely correct, Zhao Min’s father was a Turkic who served the Mongol).Guo Jing was engaged to a daughter of Temüjin but he left her from Huang Rong (Han).Zhang Wuji reunited the Ming cult and Wulin martial art experts which eventually overthrew the Yuan Dynasty (Mongol) and restored the ethnic Han as the ruler of the Central Plains.Guo Jing indirectly destroyed the Song dynasty by helping Temüjin destroyed the Jin Empire.They both led the Wulin to fight with the Mongol, but Guo Jing fail while Zhang Wuji succeeded.Zhang Wuji’s parents died at about the same time, because they tried to honor their sworn brother.Guo Jing’s father died because of his own stupidity while his mother died trying to save him.Guo Jing lost his father and later his mother, so did Zhang Wuji.Though, I still love HSDS the most, because I really love the kind of person Zhang Wuji was and whom I wish, I could be like, but I can never be.Īfter I finished all three volumes, I and probably many other readers have discovered that the third volume The HSDS was like a mirror of the first volume The LOCH. I did not like the ending, It felt like JY rushed to finish it, so I wrote the ending that I like. Though I was a bit disappointed at the end. I went slowly for the first few chapters, after that I could not put it down. My friend did not have to encourage me to start the third volume The HSDS. I cried harder when Yang Guo and Xiaolongnü had to be separated for 16 years. 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. ![]() Most people who read the Condor Trilogy by JY tended to like Guo Jing and Yang Guo more than Zhang Wuji. ![]()
