@galvatron it's not that i dislike zhao min; i just don't see her being happy with her decision to leave everything behind to be a hermit with zhang wuji. i think she'd regret it. i can't remember if ZWJ is a handsome guy in the books. i s'pose he is, given how many girls swoon over him. i know TVB did a few "prequels" in the 90s. i'm curious to know if the plots they came up with adhere to the source material or if they went and did their own re-write. i watched bits of Rage and Passion 中神通王重陽 and i KNOW it doesn't follow the story of WCY and LCY--it's TVB's cheezy fanfiction of their story. reinafu legend of the golden lion is based on the character xie xun from yi tian tu long ji. xie xun is zhang wuji's foster father. i have no idea how faithful the series is to the source material. YTTLJ is not one of my fave JY novels, so i've never paid that much attention to the adaptations.

Thanks for the precision regarding Golden Lion.
When I watched Heaven sword and dragon sabre, I had noticed that Shih Kien's hairstyle looked like the one of Golden Lion's character in the other series, and I also heard someone referring to this name when talking about him, but I hadn't realized that the 2 series were related...

I think I got a glimpse of "The Condor Heroes Return" (射鵰英雄傳之南帝北丐) once, which was a prequel of the titular characters. They tried to link TLBB with LOCH with some bits such as the 18 Dragon Subduing Palms being re-discovered (AFAIK mercilessly ripping off from the part where Yuan ChengZhi discovers the Golden Snake Manuscript. Including using a fake poisoned book to kill those that don't do a proper burial.), and Yi Deng being brought up in the Lingjiou Palace.

@galvatron iiiiinteresting re-writes! [3] li xunhuan would snap out of his self-pity and grow some balls can't agree more for this. and if I can re-write the story, I would make LXH became a playboy rather than being a self pity guy with tuberculosis who later ended up with a teenage girl who could be his niece!
