    Default Is there a sequel to Gu Long's Qing Ren Jian?

    I just finished reading Qing Ren Jian and I have to say that I rather enjoyed the novel. The fight scenes are pretty detailed for a Gu Long novel and the main character learns martial arts throughout the book. The ending however seemed to suggest that there might be a sequel, or at least that some of the characters might show up in future novels.

    I was wondering if anyone knows whether Gu Long ever wrote a sequel or if the characters in Qing Ren Jian ever appeared in any of his other novels.

    They make mention of several characters and events from Qing Ren Jian in other novels (i.e. fight between Mr.Blue and Xiao WangSun in Sentimental Swordsman, and I think the arrows were mentioned in White Jade Tiger) but there is no direct sequel.

    Detailed fight scenes and martial arts development of main protagonists are common in early period Gu Long stories. As are stories that tend to keep you hanging unfortunately.

    Thanks a lot. I was hoping to read more about Zhan Meng Bai, Xiao Wang Sun and Lan Da Xian Sheng but I suppose it is not to be.
    I have been going on a Gu Long reading craze for the past few weeks but I have yet to read the sentimental swordsman or White Jade tiger. I am currently reading Yuan Yue wan dao and I just bought Da qi ying xiong zhuan and the first Chu Liu Xiang trilogy. Maybe I should buy sentimental swordsman after I am done with those two, after all I have heard that it is supposed to be one of Gu Longs best works.
