When Gwok Jing initially believed that East Heretic Wong Yerk See had murdered five of his beloved Gong Nam 7 Freaks teachers on Peach Blossom Island, Gwok Jing was understandably enraged at Wong Yerk See and wanted the latter's blood in vengeance. Later, Gwok Jing learned that in fact, it had been Yeung Hong and West Poison Au Yeung Fung who actually murdered the 5 Freaks. Yeung Hong died horribly shortly afterward, so justice was settled there. Au Yeung Fung, however, remained at large and even held Wong Yung prisoner (and let's also not forget that Gwok Jing had a score to settle with Au Yeung Fung for having critically injured Gwok Jing's other teacher, North Beggar Hung 7 Gung, and for having nearly killed Gwok Jing himself in the Sung Imperial Palace a few months earlier). For the rest of Au Yeung Fung's life, however, Gwok Jing seemed to hold no special outrage towards him. When Au Yeung Fung went to see Gwok Jing at the Mongolian base camp near Samarkand, Gwok Jing was *almost* cordial to the fiend who'd murdered his five teachers and had held his beloved Wong Yung hostage. In ROCH thirteen years later, Gwok Jing was downright polite to Au Yeung Fung...even greeting him with a courteous, "Mr. Au Yeung...it's been a long time" before fighting him. Gwok Jing never pursued vengeance against Au Yeung Fung. Why this lenience towards a villain who had taken so much from him?
