The Swordsman of Chang'an: Xiao Shusheng Part 3
by 风流萧书生
Set against the backdrop of the Tang Dynasty's golden age, the story follows the growth of protagonist Xiao Yan. Born in Xiliang and raised there, he carries the bloodline of the Xiliang royal family and inherited swordsmanship. Due to internal strife in Xiliang and his family being wronged, he is forced to leave Xiliang City with his family heirloom 'Cold Moon Sword' and a secret token, journeying to Chang'an City to seek the truth, avenge his family, and protect his remaining kin. The plot weaves together three main threads: old grievances from Xiliang, power struggles in Chang'an, and conflicts in the martial world. It follows a narrative rhythm of 'introduction—development—climax—resolution—epilogue,' spanning five volumes of 400 chapters, each volume containing 80 chapters with seven-character couplets as chapter titles, highlighting classical wuxia charm. Xiao Yan evolves from a lone swordsman of Xiliang, through a thousand-mile journey, life-and-death trials, and choices between love and duty, to finally establish himself in Chang'an. He avenges his family's blood debt, ensures his clan's safety, and protects the peace along the border between Chang'an and Xiliang, becoming a legendary chivalrous figure bridging both realms, embodying both solitary courage and tenderness, with growth not only in sword skills but also in humanity and character.
