Can someone kindly tell me all he details on how she died? Because I don't have a vivid picture in my head cause I was so young. It'd also be very nice if someone can post a video? Thank you.

She fell to her death from the tower Chiu mun used to lock up the six groups. She was fortunate enough for ZWJ to save her in mid air but she refused his help and chose to fall to her death.
Hey Mobyz, thank you so much for replying. But, is there a video that I can watch from any of the series to see her death?
Why don't you read it?
The book was fully translated and available in our wuxia translation subforum.

Chiu Mun deserves to die for all the bad deeds that she had done. She doesn't deserve a happy ending.Quote:

Something, perhaps, that you have neglected to read.Quote:

One thing that comes to mind is that in LOCH, it is repeatedly stressed that Qiu Qianren is only very slightly inferior to the Greats, and Zhou Botong without using his dual hands technique wasn't even able to gain an edge on him. Judging by the fights he's in and comparing him to how other Greats have performed, it really seems that he is not on their level but actually significantly weaker. Adaptations and series usually treat him as such, and he represents that guy clearly weaker than the Greats, but also stronger than Guo Jing and still dangerous.
I think it makes much more sense that way, and explains why Guo Jing can hold his own decently against him at times, and even gain an edge when it was Guo Jing + Huang Rong.
The novel says many times that he is the equal of the Greats, and the adaptions show only events without JY overlay, but I think the story would actually be more consistent (and thus adaption was superior in this aspect for me) if QQR was weaker.
Thanks, Han Solo. I found the novel/translation page but I don't even know where to start. So many different versions....
