Record of the Returning Swan: A Sequel to The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber

A Sequel to The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber: In the twenty-third year of the Hongwu era, the aftershocks of the Hu Weiyong case reached Xiangyang. On the roster of the remnants of the Ming Cult, there were over a thousand three hundred names from beginning to end—the first was a physician from Xiangyang, Yin Wujiu. He smoothed his washed-white long gown and walked into the government office himself. His son, Yin Guihong, kowtowed before the statue of the True Martial Great Emperor on Wudang Mountain and entered the Daoist order. In this life, he first studied medicine, then martial arts; the Nine Yang, Nine Yin, Taiji, the Holy Fire Token, and half a volume of the poison classic—he learned them one by one, all for the sake of a single word: "save." But healing people is easy; healing the world is hard. From the Daoist paths of Wudang Mountain to the bow of a canal boat, from a tea house in Jiangnan to a lonely isle on the sea, he pulled back a life that could not rise and ferried an old friend who had been mad for years out of his madness; and unbeknownst to him, a woman who was a mole ferried his own life into hers, inch by inch. When the Jingnan troops rose and the Jinchuan Gate opened, the new dynasty's emperor had once met him on a mountain path and lost half a stone to him on a chessboard; the emperor's most beloved daughter was the wife he had waited for in his tea house. Only when the swan isle was surrounded by cliffs and ten thousand armored troops pressed in did he understand: favors and grudges cannot be calculated clearly—only the person before his eyes can be. Some say he died; some say he took the former dynasty's old emperor and fled far away across the sea. The wild goose returns, not for fame, not for favors or grudges, but only for this land that raised it. — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: Record of the Returning Swan: A Sequel to The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
