    Copy all the text from the abridged version or use the above download in Calibre to convert.

    Thanks for the rar file.
    I did a quick convert to EPUB using calibre.

    Have not had a chance to review and edit the epub to include translators, do cover pix etc...someone can download and feel free to edit it if they want and repost up a new epub.

    Legend of the Longsword Master - Huang Yi

    I don't know anything about it other than that the first "book" of the novel has been translated as of over 2 years ago.
    I'd love to read it if an excellent translator like yourself is continuing the translation.
    Like the guy from boondocks sais... "everybody hard.. everybody horny... somebody gona get some booty". (he was describing life in a mens prison). much the same here everybody wants WUXIA- and to see another awesome book translated :P Jean started with legendary siblings and when she finished that she started this... now u finish this and need to make a start on legend of the long sward master... ready for when the next young energetic translater comes along.

    (btw thank you for the translation and also the positive atmosphere you brought)

    Dear readers...

    Wow... The thread is so quiet now... Guess it is just nature...

    Fortunately or unfortunately, I have to come back because I missed out a section.

    Please come back for it tomorrow.

    Btw, I did Epilogue 2 and 3. My unofficial version to wrap up certain stuff. Anyone interested?

    Hi Justin, I've even stated so a few weeks ago: http://www.spcnet.tv/forums/showthre...=1#post1067160

    Yeah, I'm interested in your 2nd/3rd epilogue...

    Very interested.

    Yup - a lot quieter since XSL retired to the green fields...

    Clenching her teeth, she viciously swore: “Go ahead and kill us! Dad will definitely avenge us.”

    Never in his wildest dream did Xiang Shaolong anticipate the presence of Lu Niangrong. Momentarily, he was stunned into silence. After all, he is still feeling apologetic towards Lu Niangrong and would not extent his hatred for Lu Buwei onto his daughter.

    Jing Jun icily smirked: “Revenge! Humph! Your father can barely fend for himself, how can he hope to protect you? If you are feeling unjustified, you can only blame it on yourself for being his flesh and blood.”  

    Lu Niangrong furiously challenged: “Shut up! Who gave you the right to speak to me like that?”

    Xiang Shaolong extended his hand just in time to prevent Jing Jun from slapping Lu Niangrong. Softening his tone, he examined: “What brings Third Mistress here?”

    Lu Niangrong coldly grinned: “My affairs are none of your concern.”

    The Wu Family Special Forces members instantly flared up and grunted menacing. Once Xiang Shaolong gave the green light, they would hack her to pieces. Simultaneously, the eight legs of the four maids turned into jelly and with a series of ‘ku dong’ sounds, the maids collapse onto the floor and one of them was so shocked she fainted on the spot. The baby started to cry with a high pitch.

    Signaling his men to hold their ground, Xiang Shaolong sighed: “Putting aside all other matters, isn’t Third Mistress worried about the infant in your arms?”

    Lowering her head to pacify her treasured baby, Lu Niangrong’s face is streaming with hot tears. In a pitiful tone, she grieved: “If Zhongxie is dead, life has no more meaning for us, mother and son.”

    At this juncture, someone reported: “Target is reaching the residence soon!”

    Lu Niangrong resolutely raised her head and faced Xiang Shaolong, her pretty eyes radiating with a pleading expression. In fact, Xiang Shaolong’s anguish is not inferior to hers. He had promised Xiao Pan that he will present Guan Zhongxie’s head to him at the coronation ceremony. Now that he is facing Lu Niangrong mother and son, he cannot harden his heart.

    Why doesn't this scene show XSL avenging the death of Gou Xin and some of his guardians by killing Guan Zhongxie Xie. It would be great if he asks Lu Niang Rong if she wants to be part of the Xiang household in return for GZX's life. hehehe

    Dear friends,

    This is the thank you dinner for Justin and the Talented Lady Jean on behalf of a grateful ASTP community. Hope more of you can join us next time. The first picture is all three of us (terrible quality, sorry). The second is Justin presenting the treasured tome of the 18 Dragon-subduing Palms (Xiang Long Shiba Zhang) to the Talented Lady.
