A question about Ren Yingying
I've only watched the 1996 version of The Smiling Proud Wanderer (aka...State of Divinity), so I don't know how accurate the 1996 version is to the novel. However, in the movie, Linghu Chong asked Blue Phoenix and some of the other followers (before they went and rescue Ren Yingying from Shaolin), why do they respect Ren Yingying so much? What has she done for them, that they will call her their savior? They keep on saying that she had done them a great favor in the past, but they never did mention it to Linghu Chong.
I would really like to know, what did Ren Yingying did to gain so much respect from them (except the fact she is the Sacred Maiden...or something like that)? Thank you so much.
