Heroes: Who Is the True Hero? 9: Number One Under Heaven

A continuation of The Unrivaled Under Heaven, picking up after Fang Juxia enters the capital, is surrounded, and plunges from a cliff, his fate unknown. Fang Yingkan truly unites the Youqiao Group, Cai Jing's remnants, former members of the Six-and-a-Half Hall, and the Grand Preceptor's assassins. Armed with the Blood River Divine Sword, Dragon Soul Divine Spear, Mountain Scripture, and Art of Enduring Humiliation, among other schools' supreme arts, he becomes the most formidable villain in the Wen-series universe. Wang Xiaoshi escapes the Tang Clan and returns to the capital for the third time with newly mastered martial arts. Qi Shaoshang leads the Golden Wind and Drizzle Tower in a direct confrontation, while the Four Great Constables clear the way from the perimeter. Shen Huchan, Fang Zhenmei, and other characters from across the series are drawn into the conflict. This is the penultimate book in the series, tasked with "putting every piece in place for the endgame." An unprecedented "great battle for the capital" in the Wen-series universe drives the conflict to its climax and lays all the groundwork for the ultimate resolution in the tenth book, The Nemesis.
