If you want to know how to read this novel as SCP is down from a long time, you literally have to turn back space and time (a very big hint :)), or you can just message me if you didn't get it (lol)

A good Gu Long novel, not his best ofc. But, it's not a waste of time if you like reading his works. I will rank it 3rd in the flying dagger series (haven't read flying dagger reappears), my ranking:

1. Sentimental Swordsman, Ruthless Sword
2. Horizon, Bright Moon, Sabre
3. Bordertown Wanderer
4. Eagles Flying in the 9th Month

The novel summary is complete BS, never read any summary of a Gu Long novel from novel updates, it literally contains spoilers.

Most of Gu Long's novel contain a theme around which a story is built, the... more>> theme for this novel is revenge and hatred

A proper summary would be:

The leader of a large martial arts organization on the border of China invites martial artists to help resolve a decades-old feud. But as soon as they arrive in the border town, members of the organization begin to be mu*dered. Among the invitees is Ye Kai, a mysterious and enigmatic prodigy. At the same time, Fu Hongxue, a youth carrying a black sabre, enters the town uninvited.

Who is behind these mu*ders? What is the true purpose of targeting this borderland organization? Why does Fu Hongxue never release the sabre from his hand? Why has a proud and free spirit like Ye Kai chosen to remain in the border town? And why do Fu Hongxue’s eyes always appear so cold and lifeless? <<less
