Synopsis

Xu Tingyun, an abandoned disciple of the Qingcheng Sect, is twenty-eight years old. He crippled his own martial arts and left the mountain. Usually dressed in a blue robe, he carries a book chest and holds a bamboo staff. His eyes are clear, but conceal old wounds. He records the many sides of life in the martial world with his writing, seeking neither fame nor recognition, only clarity of heart. He is known as the “Swordsman Without a Sword.” In the end, he opens a school in the marketplace and teaches the Way, turning his writing into a boat to ferry others across, becoming a great literary hero of his age. His creed: “Martial arts may be cast aside, but never the heart of the Way. The sword is a weapon for killing; the pen, a boat for ferrying people across.” A wuxia novel that alludes to contemporary social issues.
