    After Mr. Liang Yusheng passed away, a friend reminisced: "He said that he wrote most about the Tianshan Mountains in his novels, yet he had never been to Xinjiang; he said that when he wrote martial arts novels, he was actually writing about scholars, because a martial artist without culture is just a brute or a rogue; and scholars are too weak, unable to even kill a chicken. Martial arts is actually the ideal of scholars, shouldering righteousness with an iron will, composing brilliant articles with a skillful pen—the chivalrous dream of scholars throughout the ages."

    New book self-recommendation: Xie Haitang has practiced swordsmanship for many years, yet she has never had blood on her hands. Cold sweat beaded on her right hand, which gripped her longsword tightly. In this desolate landscape, Xie Haitang stood out conspicuously, not only because her wedding dress was redder than autumn maple leaves, but also because her cold, beautiful face was more radiant than the morning sun. Even the black-robed man on horseback, galloping at breakneck speed, couldn't help but glance at her as she passed. However, the instant their eyes met, Xie Haitang moved in an instant! Her figure shifted in a flash, her speed astonishing. With a flick of her wrist, her sword flashed, and amidst the falling fallen leaves, a streak of sword light flew towards the black-robed man. With a loud "thud," the black-robed man, before he could react, suffered this fatal blow and fell heavily from his galloping horse. His expression was one of shock and panic, as if he couldn't believe the reality before him—that he would die at the hands of such an exceptionally beautiful woman. If he had known this would happen, he might not have wanted to take that second glance. Of course, he had no regrets about dying by the sword of such a peerless beauty.
