    Default What was left of the Ngor Mei Sect by the end of the LSF saga?

    Gu Long wasn't kind to the Ngor Mei Sect in his LUK SIU FUNG stories. At the beginning of story, the Ngor Mei Sect was headed by a powerful grandmaster, Dook Goo 1 Hok, and seven promising young disciples: Cheung Ying Fung, Yim Yan Ying, Soo Siu Ying, Sek Sau Wan, Ma Sau Jen, Sheun Sau Ching, and Yip Sau Chu.

    As the story went on...

    Dook Goo 1 Hok: killed by Sai Mun Chui Sheut in Book 1.

    Cheung Ying Fung: killed by Yip Goo Sing in Book 3.

    Yim Yan Ying: still alive as of the end of Book 3, but never again mentioned. Presumably, the only survivor (?) still active in wulin.

    Soo Siu Ying: killed by Sai Mun Chui Sheut in Book 1.

    Sek Sau Wan: killed by Seung Gwoon Fei Yin in Book 1.

    Ma Sau Jen: MIA (Book 1); Luk Siu Fung speculated that she was betrayed and murdered by her own sect sister, Yip Sau Chu, but no remains were ever found and no definitive conclusions were made about Ma's fate.

    Sheun Sau Ching: married Sai Mun Chui Sheut.

    Yip Sau Chu: fell in with Fok Yau and believed to have murdered her sect sister Ma Sau Jen. Final fate unknown.

    In LUK SIU FUNG, it seemed fairly co-ed. The leader at the time was a man, as were three of the seven key disciples. Yim Yan Ying said that at the time, Ngor Mei Sect numbered 72 members (seems small compared to Jin Yong's Ngor Mei Sect), but didn't specify its gender ratios.

    It's notable that in LUK SIU FUNG, both the Ngor Mei Sect and Mo Dong Sect were left in shambles...by the *heroes*, no less.

    How did her teacher treat her? How could she marry to a man who killed her teacher?

    It's weird. Though we don't know the state of Dook Goo 1 Hok's relationship with his students, particularly Sheun Sau Ching, presumably, he treated her reasonably well. No real reason to think otherwise.

    Sai Mun Chui Sheut killed Dook Goo 1 Hok and Soo Siu Ying. The Ngor Mei Sect must have hated SMCS (we saw evidence in Book 3: THE DUEL). The killing of Soo Siu Ying was a fair duel, and Dook Goo 1 Hok was a misunderstanding in which both DG1H and SMCS were manipulated by others, but even so...
