Good morning readers, its Labour Day today. Well, it is very obvious that today Im going to blog about a joke.... Firstly, I would like to clarify that his joke is not mine and I read it somewhere online ( in case anyone of you have read the same one too ). Now, the joke starts...
A little girl, lets call her Amy went to play with her playmate, lets call him Ben. Both were playing in the playground when Ben started to ask Amy something.
Ben: "Amy, can you do me a favour?"
Amy: "Yea, sure, what is it Ben?"
Ben: "Can you climb the tree at the corner of this playground? I wanna see something"
Amy: "Ok, no problem"
Just as what she was told to do, Amy climbed the tree and being young, she did not notice that she was wearing skirt that day. Ben was at the bottom of the tree and kept looking from the bottom, peeking. Amy made her way home later and told her mother what happened.
Amy: "Mom, today I had fun with Ben"
Mom: "Thats nice to hear, what did you two do?"
Amy: "Ben asked me to climb the tree and I did"
Mom: " Oh, you silly girl. That boy only wanted to look at your underwear"
Amy paused and thought of what her mother said might be right
Mom: "Dont you ever do that again and never let him to peek at your underwear"
Amy: "Ok, sure, Mom. No problem"
Mom: " Clever girl"
The next day, Amy and Ben went out to play again. This time, Ben had the same kinky request. Asking Amy to climb the tree again and she was wearing skirt too. However, Amy climbed the tree too and Ben was immensely satisfied to peek again! When Amy went back home again, she told her mother what happened.
Amy: "Mom, today Ben asked me to climb the tree again and I did"
Mom: "You silly girl, didnt I tell you that all he wanted was to peek at your underwear, why didnt you listen
to me?"
Amy: "Mom, I became clever this time...I din wear underwear today"

Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas
Finally, my mid term is over and I am officially free for a while before throwing myself back into the revision-dungeon. The exam I sat just now was ok overall, I can say. War isnt over, final is around the corner. Well, the blog this time is about 'Have yourself a Merry Little Christmas'. Its a bit inappropriate to blog about Christmas because it is in the end of the year and now its just going to be May. Yes, tomorrow is The Labour Day and I will be off too. No classes tomorrow. Can rest the whole day and then hit the gym as I promised myself before the mid term exam. Alright, back to the topic. 'Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas' is actually a title of a song. First sang by Judy Garland during World War 2 in a movie and this song brought tears to soldiers who were unable to return home for Christmas. The tone is sad and the lyrics is meaningful, asking us to be free of troubles and celebrate Christmas with gay. It also remind us that we will gather again in the golden age where friends and family surround us on Christmas Day. I guess the lyrics itself brought tears to the soldiers. However, this song was popular back then and some even criticized this song for bringing gloom and sadness to the force. This song then had many versions, each with different style and tone. Judy Garland's was a bit old and the music was not too fancy to hear. I like Rosemary Clooney's version. She sang with emotions and able to convey the message of the song to the audience. I first heard this song when I watched Supernatural. It was where both Sam and Dean fought the pagan gods and finally vanquishing them. In the end of that episode, Sam wanted to celebrate Christmas with Dean, something they had not do for ages. Both brothers lost too much growing up and eventually forgot the meaning of Christmas. Dean reluctantly to celebrate, thinking that it was too odd to celebrate after not doing so in years. However, Sam insisted because this will be the last Christmas he was going to spend with his only brother. Dean sold his soul to demons to bring his dead brother Sam back to life in the previous season. He had only 1 year to live before the Hound of Hell dragged him to Hell. In the episode, although both brothers did not say anything, they both knew that they care for each other and spent the Christmas with tearful eyes. At that touching moment, 'Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas' was played and really brought out the blue atmosphere. A must-watch episode. This song was played by Kenny G too. A melodious saxophone that brings the beauty of the song.

Chemistry Paper Tonight
Will be sitting for my last paper for mid term exam, Chemisrty tonight at 8.30pm in DTAMS. Looked at the past year questions and realized that many questions that cannot be found in the slides are actually asked. Was so nervous and stress last night, searching for answers by browsing the net. Indeed, the net provides lots of information and very advance too. Then last night, Anishi suddenly messaged me and asked me out to discuss the questions. It was worth to go out after all. We brainstormed and found many answers to the unsolved questions. Later, she sent me links on the bicyclo nomenclature. I was so grateful that after I read it, I finally know what is it all about. Then, I myself solve another question without being taught...LOL...must say, I was proud of myself. Lets hope for the best tonight...signing off, readers.

St Michael, my Alma Mater
I began my secondary education in St Michael's Institution, best known as SMI by the Ipohans. It is located in the heart of Ipoh city, very near to Ipoh's Taj Mahal (the Railway Station). Situated at the Kinta Valley where it was once famous of tin mining, this school becomes one of the most prestigious schools in Malaysia along with St Victoria; KL, St Xavier; Penang, Chung Ling; Penang and many more. St Michael is founded in 1912 by La Salle Brothers. These brothers wanted to educate the local community and back then, especially the Christian community. No offense but St Michael was once open to Christian students only. Back then, Malays, Chinese and Indians who wish to study in SMI must be loaded. Education dated decades ago was not free and people have to pay for it. Unlike now, the fee is cheap and everyone is affordable to study. SMI was once used as the Japanese Headquarter of Perak state when Japanese invaded Malaya and captured Ipoh ( back then was called Paloh). SMI became the center ground to torture Ipoh folks and one most notable person being tortured was Sybil Kartigesu. She was a nurse who supported the guerrilla force with food and medicine together with her husband who was a doctor. She had 3 daughters but her youngest was killed by Japanese. Despite constant torturing, she never gave up on the guerrilla force and remain silent for their safety. Each time, she got emboldened and her determination was strong. My teacher once told me that a staircase which I always use, was the staircase the Japanese used to push Sybil. In honour of her dedication, a road in Ipoh had been named after her, Sybil Kartigesu Road.
SMI also produced numerous prominent people over the century. Those notable ones are Michelle Yeoh, Lee Loy Seng, Lee Oi Hian, Lee Hau Hian, Lee Lam Thye, Justice Chang and many more. Im proud indeed to have studied in St Michael. One thing that I love about SMI was there is no streaming among classes. You see, some schools, they put the bright ones in a class and the poor ones in another, increasing the gaps. St Michael does not do streaming and distribute the students equally among classes which I think i a healthy education system. No academic gap is felt and no student is left off. St Michael still hold the slogan 'For the Last, the Least and the Lost'. Behind St Michael is the Kinta River and has a breath-taking scenery. The location is so strategic and has been made one of Ipoh Heritage Sites. This year St Michael will be celebrating her 100th year birthday. Consider young compared to MGS and Convent which were founded in 1897 and 1907 respectively. St Michael is always on good terms with Convent because St Michale was part of it. If you happened to pass by Convent, you will notice there is a ST Michael Church opposite to it and this church is next to Same Tet High School, another prestigious school. St Micahel was initially located in the church before moving to the current ground.
Convent is said to be the mother of schools which is why we name her The Main Convent. Tarcisian Convent, Ave Maria Convent and St Michael were all from Convent. In case if you din know, St Michael got its name from the name of a brave and powerful Archangel Michael. His stature remain at the top of the school, The Angel of St Michael. The greatest among 4 archangels, the rest of the 3 are Lucifer(Satan), Gabriel and Raphael. I studied in St Michael from Form 1 until my Upper Six and the teachers there have nourished me and taught me efficiently. I am really grateful to have been admitted into St Michael in the first place. During my time there, I have only encountered two principals who served for the school. One is Mr Louis Rozario and another is Mr Poon Chong Chee. I must say that the former is the best principal ever and because of his dedication, St Michael is well-known especially in debates. Of course, such an old school has many mysteries unrevealed. There were rumours in the city saying that during the Japanese occupation, an underground tunnel was made to connect Convent and St Michael. However, after a long search no tunnel was found or was it a hoax? Some rumoured that the tunnel was situated right under the foor of the Deo Gratias stature located in the foyer. Who knows? Old school is always rich in ghost stories, I have a few myself but lets save them for another blog.
Together with this blog is the school rally...notice the English they used (kinda ancient)

Gothic-like St MichaelConnections of ROCH to the next Sequel
Pheww, blogged Bersih 3.0 really made me pissed off so am blogging movies to balance my emotions. Well, if u have read ROCH in my previous blog, u will know what is it about and I know its super long so I doubt if anyone would like to read it all, probably stop mid-way. Haha, anyway, i will keep this short, ok? The third novel of Jin Yong is Heaven Swords and Dragon Sabre, features Zhang Wuji and a Mongol princess, Zhao Min. Not going to elaborate much on the plot coz dun really like this novel. This novel set in China of Yuen Dynasty, almost 100 years after Song dynasty ended. You are right, the Mongols invaded Xiangyang City in the end and captured the capital, beginning the Yuen, ending the Song. The Yuen was governed by Mongols and many Chinese were mistreated. After Yang Guo and Xiao Long Nu returned to Gumu, they were never heard of anymore. Huang Rong and Guo Jing melted the Junzhi Sword to become the Dragon Sabre and Chunu Sword to become the Heaven Sword. The Sabre had a kungfu script of 18 Ways to Defeat Dragon (Guo Jing's main kungfu) and the Heaven Sword contained The Nine Yin White Skull Claw. In case if you have noticed, I translated directly from Chinese. Lol...then the sabre was given to Guo Puo Luo and the sword to Guo Xiang. When the Mongols invaded the city, Huang, Guo and his son die together as the city fell in the enemies' hand. Guo Xiang made her escape and explored Jianghu. No records on Guo Fu and her husband. Guo Xiang then founded Ermei Sect and developed skillful swordplay. She also saved Zhang San Fung, the founder of Taichi and Wudang Sect. Since then, Ermei disciples and Wudang disciples cannot fight with each other due to the friendly relationship of both founders. It was known that Guo Xiang became a nun, probably she loved only Yang Guo and never opened her heart to others. She also lost her family and decided to become a nun and stayed out of the world matters.
Why Ermei Sect is important? Because it existed till today and has disciples worldwide. Yes, its true that Ermei is real and the founder is indeed Guo Xiang but the real Guo Xiang's background was not fully understood. Zhou Ziruo, the protagonist in this last sequel is a disciple of Ermei and eventually succeeded the position as leader from Nun Mijue. She possessed both Sabre and Sword. Only the leader of Ermei knew the secret of both weapons. After she possessed them, she studied the Nine Yin White Skull Claw and became prominent in her new kungfu. She defeated many experts including Zhang Wuji who happened to purposely lost in the match. She did many bad deeds and clawed Zhao Min before.
Later, a mysterious yellow dress maiden appeared and fought with Zhou. Her kungfu was similar to Xiao Long Nu and people address her Miss Yang. She defeated Zhou with her own orthodox Nine Yin White Skull Claw. Zhou met her only match. During her last meet with Zhang, she gave a hint to him that she was a descendant from The Condor Couples (Yang and Long). Dont know if she was the daughter or granddaughter. Most probably it was their daughter because she told Zhang that her father was related to the Beggar Sect (referring to Yang) but one may asked, 100 years of gap and their daughter was still young and beautiful? The secret may lie beneath the Gumu kungfu which disallow one to have emotions, making them look young forever. Same goes to Long, she still retain her 18 years old look although she was 40s when she reunited with Yang, 16 years later. Okay, thats all...Goodnight.

Yellow Dress MaidenBersih 3.0- A tragedy
It is all over the neews, Facebook, Internet etc. The peace street rally turned to riots! Not the fault of citizens but the government and the frontliners! What is wrong with you people? Cant you see we came with peace? I heard that some Bersih supporters died during the riots. A police car hit him. Why? Why the polices are blind? Or they purposely hit the crowd by speeding the car? Two people were trapped under the police car and the crowd had to over turned the car to save the innocent citizens. The police fired tear gas towards citizens and one of it shot and smashed the back mirror of a citizen's car. They detained over 1600 people for campaigning. They used water canons to disperse the crowd. A different story was heard by both Sabahans and Sarawakians. Our Prime Minister went to the East and told them that the polices will take care of the protesters and when they are thirsty, bottles of mineral water will be distributed. The Eastern people, please open your eyes and see what the force had done to us. They are treating us as terrorists or even worse, as animals. They dispersed the crowd so merciless to the extend of taking someone else life. This is not tolerable. So many were injured this time and i think this campaign is way beyond successful, 100,000 people turn up for this campaign to ask for fair and clean elections. We are just demanding for fairer elections, must you go that far? I am so saddened for what had happened to the supporters, they were violently beaten up by the force, like they were criminals. According to what I read, an Australia senator was in the crowd too and the police fired tear gas towards his direction, this news is on SBS, Australia's network. You can search for this article to read. I thought Bersih campaign was held nationwide but I was wrong, it is a worldwide campaign. Malaysians in overseas also got the message. They are from Japan, Australia, UK, USA and many more. We want change and reformed elections. If you are so convinced that you will win in the next election, why do you have to go to such extend? Why not just follow our plead and reform the election? Or is it something else you were hiding, something that had been true for all this while? If you keep on doing this, it will just prove you wrong. And the further you go, the more Malaysians will not support you. You said it yourself that you have the confidence to win. Hence, reform the election and if u think u will win, u will still do! I am so disappointed, i thought you had learned your lesson and will somehow disperse the crowd in a polite manner. However, u reacted too exaggerated. You treated us like your animals that you can disperse using water and smoke when your pets were about to bite you. Which is why Malaysians want change.

Bryan~Rest In Peace
I have a friend, his name is Bryan Chee. Well, from what you read from the title, u already know that he is gone. I did not use 'I had a friend' because he is always my friend and him being in another world doesnt make any difference. Bryan was my schoolmate, we were never in the same class. From what I saw, he was a very cheerful, happy-go-lucky type of person. Whenever you talked to him, you will know that he had no evil intentions within him. Everything he said was crystal clear, no hidden meaning. Lol, one more thing I noticed was that he loved to gossip. Whenever he had a hot gossip, it was a norm for him to start his sentence this way 'Hey, I tell you ah...'. Really miss him. We were only in the same POL class (People's Own Language), studying Chinese and both of us were banana type and I would say he was a typical one. Whenever i conversed with him, he used only English, its hard to find him conversing in Chinese. We were not so close but I knew he was a naive and good friend. After graduated from Form 5, he went to private college and I resumed my Form 6. We kept in touch via Facebook. One day when I was around Gunung Rapat, I saw he learned how to drive in a small white Kancil and sitting next to him was the trainer. His face was so tense. When I saw him, I was both surprise and deep in my heart's core, I did laugh. Surprise to see him learning to drive after months of not seeing him and laughed at his tense look. After that, we contacted via Facebook again and he told me that he was studying in Australia. I, of course felt happy for him and we both caught up on each others' stories. Never did I know that was the last time I chat with him. After months of not contacting him, one day I was cruising Jaya Jusco Kinta City with my family and I saw Jeremy and his mother. I went over to say hi. Then Jeremy told me...
"Do you know that Bryan had passed away?"
"What? When?"
"Approximately a month ago"
"...How...?" I was so speechless to hear the news...
"I have no idea myself"
After that, we both bid farewell to each other, i still retained the shocked look and I told my parents about Bryan's sudden departure. My parents comforted me. I still remember my mother told me
"Son, I know how you feel...I went through the same thing...I had a friend and we were very close but when we both got married and moved to different places to live, we never contacted...one day I heard from another friend that she died...I was shocked and sad at the same time"
My mother was correct...I was both shocked and sad...I mean how come a nice guy like Bryan will leave so soon? My cruise in Jusco turned out to be moody, I was quiet and in my mind, I was just thinking my times with Bryan. How come I did not catch up his recent stories? What really happened?
When I reached home, I opened my lappy and logged into Facebook. I browsed his name and saw so many people condoled his family. It had been a month and I was clueless...I posted on the wall, somehow he would read, telling him how sorry I was to receive the news so late. Then, i read the comments and found out that he had heart attack. On the day he died, he was supposed to meet his friends for dinner but his friends waited for so long, his aunt called his friends, telling them Bryan died of heart attack. It was a sudden attack. Never did i know Bryan had this disease. I looked at his pictures again and he was fine and made lots of friends there. I was so sad to look at his pictures...at the same time, I was blaming myself for not contacting him and did not know about his death. I logged off and made my way to bed. I couldnt sleep, all I thought was Bryan and his smile, his grin. It was all so fresh in my memories, how he gossiped and laughed loud later on. I could not believe this person had gone. I recalled seeing him in the small white Kancil and I blamed myself for laughing at him that time. Never did i know the last time I saw him was his driving lesson. Suddenly, tears rolled down my cheeks. I was breaking down for his departure. I sobbed and gasped for air and each time I did, it was getting louder. Since my parents were sound asleep, I did not want to wake them up. I went downstairs and saw my younger sister playing Facebook. I broke down in front of her and she felt sorry too. After that, I went upstairs, closed my eyes and tried to sleep. That night, when I closed my eyes, I saw Bryan's face with a grin. The next day, I remained quiet in the office-the part time job. Colleagues asked what happened and I told them, they felt sorry too. I was moody the whole day...things got better as time passed. I never had the chance to visit Bryan in cemetery because I was preparing for Uni admission. I wish to see him again and tell him how kind-hearted he is (always be). Bryan, if u happened to read this, I wanna let you know how you made my life delighted. Whenever I thought of you, I will remember your grin and your eyes made small when you laugh. Have i ever told you, you opened your mouth so wide when you laugh. Keep it this way, Bryan. I wish that you are still laughing and gossiping in Heaven. I like the way you are because you are Bryan. I hope you have found peace and ascended the staircase to Heaven with grace. Rest in Peace, Bryan. I will always miss you.

LOL...can resist to blog...Anyway, will revise after this blog. I wanna blog about The Return of Condor Hero (ROCH), one of my favourite series again. I always watch English movies and series and often get so obsessed by these movies. However, there is one Chinese series that really caught my attention way back in 2007, when i was 16 years old. It was aired on 8TV every weekdays from 8.30 to 9.30pm (still remember). It is based on one of the famous Chinese novels ever written by Jin Yong, a talented Chinese novelist. He wrote 7 famous novels with martial arts genre. ROCH is the second novel and a sequel of the first, The Legend of Condor Hero. This novel is made as TV series and with so many versions...the latest one is the best. It features Yang Guo and Xiao Long Nu. Yang Guo is a very young and handsome guy in the series and his love of life, Xiao Long Nu, who is 5 years older than him.
The story starts when Guo Jing, the main character in the previous sequel brought Yang to Quan Zhen Sect to learn martial arts. Yang's father, Yang Kang was the protagonist in the previous sequel but Guo Jing adopted his son. Huang Rong, Guo Jing's wife never really liked Yang because he reminds her of his father. Guo has a daughter, Guo Fu and 2 disciples the Wu brothers. When they bullied Yang for not being able to fight back because he was clueless about kungfu, Yang used the Toad Stance, taught by his god-father, Ouyang Feng who happened to be the protagonist in the previous sequel too. Upon hurting one of the brothers, Huang Rong and Guo Jing were both shocked to see this deadly stance was performed by Yang. They decided to send him off to the sect so that he will not follow his father's footsteps.
In the mean time, Li Muo Chou, protagonist in this novel and also the senior of Xiao Long Nu spread the rumours about when Xiao Long Nu turned 18, she will offer her hand in marriage to someone who can defeat her. Xiao Long Nu is the most beautiful girl in Jin Yong universe. She is featured as having long black hair, fair complexion, wears white attire and very ghostly-appearance. She had never stepped out of the Living Tomb aka Gumu since she was a baby. Her kungfu is said to have reached a very high level, being able to defeat anyone and equivalent to any martial experts in Jianghu. Upon hearing this, The Mongol prince, Huodu lead his army to the Gumu so that he can defeat her and marry her. Xiao Long Nu's living weapon, the Jade Bees drove them away. The Mongols used this opportunity to attack the Quan Zhen Sect on the Zhongnan Mountain. During the fight, the Quan Zhen disciples encountered Guo and Yang and mistook them as Mongols. A furious fight began where Guo defeated all of them including the eldest senior, Zhao Zhi Jing. Zhao was ashamed for his defeat and decided to avenge for his embarrassment. Seeing Xiao Long Nu did not come out of Gumu, Li retreated because Gumu was a place full of traps and she had not adapted the Gumu when she was young. The master expelled her from Gumu for poor conduct and she was back to claim the Gumu's highest martial art, The Jade Maiden Sutra.
Back to Yang, he was placed under Zhao as a disciple and since then, he was constantly bullied by his master as a revenge to Guo for embarrassing him in the fight. Yang was only taught academically but not kungfu. One day, he was called to have a friendly fight with other disciples. He was beaten and Zhao scolded him for not improving his kungfu. Zhao did not teach him at all. Yang was furious and used his Toad Stance and severely injured his opponent. Seeing this kungfu, everyone was shocked and Yang ran away, thinking that he killed someone. The other disciples ran after him and they reached the restricted area, the Gumu. The Jade Bees drove the rest of them away but stung Yang and he passed out. An old lady came out and took Yang into the Gumu, healing his wounds using Jade Honey. The old lady is Granny Sun of Gumu. Yang told her his misfortunes and Granny Sun felt sorry for him. She loved him as a dear son and wanted him to stay with her but Xiao Long Nu refused to take him in. According to the Gumu's rules, no man is allowed to enter Gumu or else he will be killed. Since Yang was a small kid, Xiao Long Nu spared his life. She wanted Granny Sun to return Yang to the Sect and asked them not to bully him anymore. In return of their favour, she will hand over the Jade Honey to other disciples as some of them were stung.
Granny Sun took Yang to the Sect but later fought with the disciples. Her kungfu defeated all of them abd when an elder of the Sect came to the fight, Hao Da Tong, he mistakenly injured Granny Sun severely. In the climax of the fight, Xiao Long Nu appeared. Her physical appearance charmed all the males present especially Zheng Zhi Ping, Zhao's junior. Granny Sun asked Xiao Long Nu to take care of Yang forever before she died. Xiao Long Nu agreed and she wanted Hao to commit suicide a tooth for a tooth. Hao refused and Xiao Long Nu fought with him. Her maneuver was so enhanced and she defeated Hao with her skills. When Hao wanted to commit suicide, Hao's senior, Qiu Chu Ji came and stopped him from doing so. Qiu and Long fought and this time, they were both equally skillful. Long broke his sword using her long white sash with golden bells before leaving with Yang and Granny Sun. Qiu and Hao were both amazed of her skills that overpower theirs even at such young age. Long was only 18 that time but both Qiu and Hao were 50s.
Back in Gumu, Lng put Granny Sun in the coffin and Yang became her disciple, the first male disciple in Gumu. Zheng waited for Long outside to resolve the problem, Long told him that Yang was no longer belong to QuanZhen Sect and became her disciple. She also handed the Honey to him to cure other disciples. Zheng was madly in love with Long. Long taught Yang weird and unique kungfu. She told him that Gumu kungfu was created by their founder, Lin Chao Ying who happened to be Long's grandmaster. She hated the founder of QuanZhen Sect, Wang Chong Yang who happened to be one of the Greatest 5 in Jianghu. In a fight, Lin won Wang by tricks and got the Gumu. She created the Gumu kungfu to overpower the QuanZhen kungfu. This explains why Long was able to defeat all the QuanZhen disciples. After several years, Yang grew up to be a very handsome guy and finally finished learning all the Gumu stances, the first level. His kungfu was similar to that of Long's. Long told him that the second level is Yunu Xinjing (Jade Maiden Heart Sutra) but she had not master all. Her grandmaster died before teaching her master all the kungfu so Long's knowledge on this second level kungfu is even limited. When Yang read out the QuanZhen's kungfu script and Long tried to practiced it, she felt that her kungfu grew and this convinced them that QuanZhen's kungfu is a must-learn in the second level.
Both of them studied together and this kungfu needed two people to have its maximum potential. During a practice, Long was injured due to distraction from Zhao and Zheng. They both returned to Gumu and Long thought that she was going to die so wanted to kill Yang first and then commit suicide as she had promised Granny Sun to take care of him forever. Yang ran out of Gumu while Li Muo Chou watched on. Li and her disciple, Ning Bo took opportunity and captured Long in Gumu. Yang returned to Gumu, fearing Long's safety. In the Gumu, Li wanted the sutra but Long refused to hand over. Both Long and Yang ran away from Li with the help of the traps. Long told Yang that Li's kungfu was beyond hers. During the escape, Long learned that Yang fell in love with her and she fell in love with Yang too. Long wanted Yang to escape and she will stay in Gumu with her senior forever by closing the main gate of Gumu. Once it was closed, there were no ways of opening it anymore. Before the door was closed completely, Yang made his return back to Gumu and all 4 of them were trapped. Long and Yang once again fought with Li and Ning. When they temporarily escaped from them, Long asked Yang to put her in a coffin and she will lay rest until she die. Yang joined her in the coffin and discovered that the coffin they were laying in was actually a passage to another secret chamber. They pulled the trigger and both dropped to another chamber, a second exit. On the wall of chamber, illustrated the Nine Yin Manual, written by Wang. This manual contained nine powerful kungfu ever existed. Yang and Long learned the kungfu before exiting. Upon learning, Long's injury had been cured. Li and Ning also exited the Gumu via this secret exit.
Outside Gumu, Yang wanted to explore but Long hesitated as she had never been exposed to the world. During their stay in the woods, Yang encountered Ouyang Feng again and both were thrilled. Ouyang wanted to teach Yang kungfu but afraid that Long will learn so he hit her acupuncture point and she fell on the ground, motionless. Yang did not know that Long was hit by Ouyang and left the place with Ouyang. Long lay on the ground until Zheng saw her. Then, Zheng covered her eyes. Long thought he was Yang. Later, Zheng raped Long. After that, he left and Yang went to Long. Long was happy and thought her virginity was given to Yang. When Yang released her from motionless state, she indirectly confronted him but Yang did not understand. Long thought he did not want to be responsible and left him after hitting his acupuncture point. Yang went to look for Long madly after that and in his journey, he encountered some girls, one of them was Lu Wu Shuang and happened to be Li's second disciple but was escaping from Li after stealing her kungfu manual. Both Yang and Lu escaped from Li. Yang then only knew how a girl felt and knew that Long loved him. He blamed for his stupidity. In his journey, he also encountered Ouyang Feng and Hong Qi Gong. Both were of Greatest 5. They fought for days on the peak of snowy mountains and when both were exhausted, they taught Yang with their highest skill to overcome each other's. Ouyang with his Toad Stance and Hong with his Hit Dog Stance. Finally, Ouyang's kungfu defeated Hong's and Hong could not believe it. Both laughed and hugged before dying. Yang was sad that both were dead and buried them on the peak.
Long also searched for Yang because she missed him. Guo and Huang called for heroes' meeting to defeat the invading Mongol army into China. Long and Yang went to the meeting separately. Guo was thrilled to see Yang and apologized for not being able to visit him for years since he was busy defending the country from Mongols. Huang was suspicious of Yang when he told them that he was clueless of kungfu. Jinlun, the Mongol's greatest warrior came with his Mongol team and wanted to win the Jianghu's leader position. The Mongol won the Chinese by tricks and when Long came, Yang was so happy that he reunited with Long. Then, when the Mongols were closed to victory, Yang offered himself in the battle to help Long to win the title as Jianghu's leader. He fought with Huodu and Da Er Ba. His skillful maneuver amazed everyone and no one had seen this kind of swordsplay before. After winning, Jinlun wanted to challenge Long. Initially Long refused to fight but when Jinlun wanted to fight with Yang, Long replaced Yang for the fight. Both fought and it turned out that Jinlun was more powerful. When Long was losing, Yang went to help which made Guo feared for Yang's safety, went to help too. Finally, Jinlun was defeated and left with his team. Long was then made the leader and Guo wanted to discuss Guo Fu and Yang's marriage with Long since Long was Yang's master. However, Long said that Yang will not marry his daughter and she herself wanted to become Yang's wife. Everyone present was shocked to hear this because during Confucian time, master and student's relationship was considered incest. Zhao then insulted both Yang and Long. They fought and when Long used Yunu Swordplay and Yang used QuanZhen Swordplay, they had a very maximum potential. Guo asked them to stop and asked Yang to leave since Yang insisted to marry Long. Both left and explored the Jianghu. Guo Fu was furious because she was rejected in front of many people and left. The Wu brothers followed. Later Huang ran after her daughter. They encountered Jinlun and the Mongols who were resting and all were captured. Huang was pregnant and could not win all of them. Both Yang and Long assisted. They once again combine Yunu and QuanZhen Swordsplay and realized that this was the highest level of Yunu Xinjing. Jinlun was not match to this swordplay and retreated. Huang was grateful to them and during their stay in an inn. Huang told Long to think of Yang's sake. Yang will be bored if he stayed in Gumu forever and will be looked down by others if he stayed with Long. Long decided to leave Yang and Yang was furious of Huang.
Yang went to search for Long again and Long ended in th Loveless Valley. A middle-aged guy by the name of Gongsun Zhi and also the chief of the valley fell in love with Long and persuaded her to forget Yang by marrying him. In the mean time, Yang met Sha Gu and Huang Yao Shi, Huang's faather and also one of the Greatest 5. Sha Gu mistakenly told Yang that his father's death was actually Huang and Guo's fault. Yang was angry and decided to revenge for his father. He teamed up with Jinlun and Mongols to plan to kill Guo and Huang. In the meantime, Zhou Buo Tong, Wang Chong Yang's junior invaded the valley and stole Long's golden bells. He later invaded the Mongol army and Yang found the bells. He recognized those belong to Long and followed Zhou which lead Yang and the Mongol warriors to the valley. Long decided to marry Gongsun Zhi to forget Yang. In the valley, Gongsun's daughter, Lu er fell in love with Yang and assisted Yang to claim back Long. Finally when Long wanted to be with Yang again, Gongsun Zhi revealed his true and cruel self. Yang and Long fought with Zhi and he was defeated in the fight but during the fight, Long was attacked by Loveless Poison by the Loveless flowers in the valley. They lost in the fight and Zhi detained Yang. Seeing only one last cure left, he poisoned Yang by throwing flowers on him and made Long marry him. Later, he pushed both Yang and Lu er to the Crocodile Lake. Both encountered Qiu Qian Che, mother of Lu er and she revelaed how Zhi pushed her down to this lake too. Yang helped them to escape the lake. Yang also stole the last cure and planned to give it to Long. When Long and Zhi was about to get married, Yang, Lu er and Che arrived. Zhi was ahocked to see the alive Che for he thought he had killed. Yang fed Long with the cure and lied to her that he already consume it. When both Yang and Long wanted to fight with Zhi, Yang could not continue because of the poison and Long seek revenge for him and fought with Zhi. Zhi was more powerful than Long and she was losing to him. Che taught Yang how to defeat Zhi and finally, Yang defeated him, Che also blinded Zhi's right eye by shooting an almond seed from her mouth.
Zhi quickly left the valley after that. Che had another cure which she kept before she was pushed into the lake. She wanted Yang to bring Guo and Huang's head for killing her brother in the exchange for the cure. She let Yang ate half of the cure which accelerated the poison attack. Yang and Long then went to Xiangyang City to kill both Guo and Huang. Defending the city, Guo did not know of Yang's intention to kill him but Huang was suspicious. Although Yang wanted to kill Guo several times, he couldnt do it. When Huang confronted Long, Long admitted that they had a mission to kill them. Huang also learned about Yang's poison. Huang agreed to Long that after she gave birth to her unborn child, she will let Long kill her and decapitate her for the exchange for the cure. Finally, Yang decided not to kill Guo and Huang. Both Long and Yang defended the city when the Mongols invaded. Jinlun set fire in the city the day Huang gave birth. Huang gave birth to a twin, a girl and a boy. The girl who was first given birth was named Guo Xiang and the younger baby boy was named Guo Puo Luo. Long carried Xiang to safety because of the fire. Yang distracted Jinlun and then both Long and Yang encountered Jinlun. They fought and Jinlun wanted to snatch the baby from Long knowing that she was Guo's daughter. In the fight, Long handed the baby to Yang so that Yang could exchange the cure with the baby but was later snatched by Li who joined the fight. She left with the baby.
In the quest for the baby, Yang and Long separated and the Wu Brothers were killing each other over Fu's attention. Their father, Wu San Tong, disciple of Yi Deng Monk (one of the Greatest 5), asked Yang's help to resolve the problem. Yang said that Fu and him were together and asked them to give up. He also performed several Taohua Island's Kungfu to convince them that Huang and Guo will be handing over their daughter to him. Upon hearing this, Long was devastated and went to see Guo Fu. She handed over the Couple Swords (Junzhi and Chunu Swords) to Fu so that both Yang and Fu will be together. Fu was confused and ran after Long. Long eavesdrop Zhao and Zheng's conversation and realized that it was not Yang who slept with her but Zheng. Long was again devastated. Fu overheard and shocked. When Zhao and Zheng left Xiangyang City, Long hunted for them. Again, Yang and Long separated. Fu got to know the Wu Brothers gave up on her and left with their father. She confronted Yang and Yang admitted to have drive them away. She was carrying Junzhi Sword with her. In the middle of the conversation, she tarnished Long's name, saying that she was not innocent, slept with men and lost her virginity. Yang slapped her for tarnishing his beloved's name. In fact, Yang had already the slightest idea that Fu might be right since Long indirectly confronted to him about 'the incident at that night'. Fu was furious and slayed Yang's right arm. Then Fu was scared and hide in the room. Huang ang Guo got to know about this and went to see Yang but what was left was his right arm on the floor. Guo wanted to disarm Fu for this but Huang protected her. Both Huang and Fu left the city and in the meantime, searched for the lost Xiang.
Zhao cooperate with the Mongols to take over China but Zheng refused. The Mongols then agreed to promote Zhao as the leader after taking over the sect, one of the most influential sects in China, this aids their conquer on China if they control QuanZhen Sect. Meanwhile, Long was waiting for the right time to strike since the Mongol army had many great warriors. Poor Yang passed out in stranded land but was later rescued by a giant Condor. The Condor fed him with snakes' gall bladder and his wound recovered fast. He later knew that this condor was a friend to a very lonely powerful warrior, Dugu Qiubai (translated-Alone and begged to be defeated). This Dugu's skill is very high and he could even use a stick as a sword. With the help of condor, Yang learned the Dugu's kungfu and picked a very heavy but blunt sword. This sword became Yang's main weapon in the future. Yang successfully master the kungfu and his skills were beyond others, probably Long's too. During the hunt down, the Mongols wanted to use Zhou Buo Tong to control the sect but when he refused, Jinlun poisoned him with spiders. Long came to help and both Jinlun and Long fought equally powerful. Long could not defeat Jinlun and Jinlun could not harm Long too. In the cave, Zhou expelled his poisons and taught Long to use both swordplays by herself. Long, being smart was able to master it. Left hand play QuanZhen Swordplay and right hand play Yunu Swordplay. Long's kungfu reached the highest and advanced form of Yunu Xinjing, becoming the first to utilized two swordplay in a peace harmony. She drove Jinlun and the Mongols with her bees. Zhou was interested in her conjuring-bees technique. Long taught him and Zhou stole the honey bottle from her so that he could conjure bees anytime.
Huang saw Li with a baby and followed her, convinced that the baby was Xiang. Li and Huang fought and finally Huang won. In the middle of the fight, Yang stole the baby and appeared in front of Fu. Fu was scared and told Huang. Yang put the baby in a box near the secret exit of Gumu and looked for Long. Long hunted both Zhao and Zheng until they reached the sect. The 7 elders of the sect was meditating and the Mongols captured the Sect. Zhao killed whoever who disobeyed him and when he was about to kill Zheng, Long appeared and wanted to kill Zheng herself. Zhao bullshit and made Long wanted to kill him first before Zheng. Jinlun protected Zhao but this time, Jinlun was having difficult times due to the advanced swordplay Long had mastered. Finally, Long defeated Jinlun for the very first time. Everyone was shocked to see her great improvement in kungfu. The rest of the Mongol warriors helped to fight with Long but Long was able to fight them all. At the climax of fight, Jinlun threw a sharp -blade-wheel to Long. Zheng threw himself towards the wheel and was cut. Long turned to stab the oncoming wheel but stabbed Zheng instead. Zheng asked her to forgive him before dying in front of her. The elders came out and saw Long killed Zheng. Qiu Chu Ji hit Long and Long flew down the hill. Yang grabbed the seriously injured Long and both were happy to see each other again. Long learned that Yang's love for Fu was fake and she was also saddened that his right arm was slayed. The elders wanted to know why Long killed Zheng but Long only said he deserved it. Jinlun wanted to kill them but Yang was powerful already. Da Er Ba helped his master and stayed faithful but Huodu left his master. Seeing Da Er Ba being so faithful, Yang spared their life. Long and Yang then went to the Chong Yang Palace and Yang asked Long's hands in marriage. Long cried and asked Yang not to treat her so good since she was not 'as pure as he thought'. Yang did not care what happen and only ask Long to be his wife, he wanted to take care of her for the rest of his life. Although the elders prohibit them from getting married in the sacred place, they ignore and proceeded the ritual.
After the marriage, they escaped from the palace and return to Gumu with the baby. Zhou reached the palace and told the elders that Long was a nice lady. It was Zhao who betrayed the country by cooperating with Mongols. Zhao who was trapped in a big bell by Zhou, was forced to tell the truth when Zhou conjured Jade Bees to sting him. He told the ellders that Zheng deserved to die because he broke the fundamental rule of the sect, that was to have intimate relationship (you know what i mean). The elders then decided that Zheng's death was his fault and would not blame Long for that. Zhao died in the bell due to constant bee stinging. Yang helped Long to heal her wound but to no avail. Fu, Yelu Qi, Huang and Li reached Gumu. Since Huang just gave birth, she could not immerse in water. Li went into Gumu with Fu and Yelu. Li left them trapped in the Gumu and looked for Long. When Li was about to kill Yang and Long, Yang borrowed her internal strength to break through Long's acupuncture point. Li's internal strength was poisonous and Long was again poisoned. Yang fought with Li and put her into a coffin. Then, both Yang and Long hide in another coffin but with Yang's clothe exposed. Fu and Yelu found Xiang and when they reached the coffins, Fu mistook the coffin where Long and Yang were hiding was Li. She used Li's poisonous needles and flew them into the coffin. The cure disrupted and Long's poison cannot be cured. Yang was furious and took Xiang away from Fu, never return. Li escaped from Gumu again. Both Fu and Yelu escaped from Gumu without Xiang. Long advised Yang to return Xiang to them, pitied on the child to grow in Gumu. Long wanted to explore Jianghu before her death. Yang and Long went out and enjoyed themselves when they encountered Monk Yi Deng. The Monk promised Yang to cure his poison since his junior was the Divine Doctor but Long's poison was hard to cure.
It was later found out that QuanZhen Sect was destroyed by the Mongols. Huang, Fu, Yelu, Xiang, Monk Yi Deng, Long, Yang, Wu brothers, Wu San Tong, Divine Doc, Zhu, Lu Wu Shuang and her cousin Chen went to Loveless Valley to claim the cure. Che refused to give the cure. Li cooperate with Zhi. Zhi wanted to be the chief again and Li wanted the cure since she was poisoned too. Che asked Lu er to give fake poison to Yang but Lu er secretly gave the real one to Yang. Zhi snatched the cure from Yang and Lu er begged her father to return. Zhi later killed Lu er, her own daughter. Yang was furious and hit Zhi. All ran after Zhi since he had the cure. Che was devastated over her daughter's death. In the mean time, Li killed the Divine Doc but before his death, he lay next to a special herbs, cure to the poison. Monk Yi Deng discovered this. Long fought with Zhi to get back the cure and she won in the battle. She took the cure to Yang and asked him to eat it. Yang threw the cure to the valley since Long's poison cannot be cured, he was planning to die with her. Li was surrounded by the rest and no where to go.Finally, she gave up on her kungfu in front of everyone. The Loveless Valley was then on fire. Li ran towards the fire because she missed her beloved man. Her act was like a beautiful moth flying towards fire, destroying itself. A famous Chinese proverb. Long cried for her senior's death. After that, Che lured Zhi to the Crocodile Lake and die with him. Yang, Long and the rest stay at the valley for a while and Yang named a beautiful flower over Long called Long Nu Flower. That night, Long had something else in her mind and the next morning, Long had gone missing.Yang searched for her madly and accused Huang for driving her away again. Then, they saw a huge stone at the edge of the valley. It was Long's writing. Long said she was gone and would meet Yang again the same place after 16 years. Yang was devastated. Huang comforted Yang that maybe the Nanhai Nun took her away. She was a divine in curing poison and only emerge in Jianghu every 16 years. She did not let men to step on her Nanhai Island or else they will be killed.
Since Yang wanted to meet Long again 16 years later, he consumed the herbs and soon he recovered. He taught Lu the Yunu Xinjing since she was a disciple of Gumu too. By the way, Ning Bo was killed by Li when Li used her to cushion the poisonous flowers. Yang left and wandered around with the Condor for 16 years. He did many good deeds including punishing the Song Dynasty corrupted officials. He met Ke also and Ke told him how corrupted his father was and his death was his own fault. Yang accepted this and never seek revenge for his father anymore. Guo Xiang was a beautiful 16 years old girl. Fu was married to Yelu. Guo Xiang heard of Condor Hero and wanted to meet him. Yang then discovered that she was the baby Xiang and on her birthday, gave her 3 surprising presents. Da Er Ba also killed Huodu for betraying Jinlun, then he went back to Mongol. Jinlun was practicing a powerful kungfu to defeat Yang. Yang met Huang Yao Shi on Xiang's birthday and both had friendly match. Huang was worried and told Xiang that Nanhai Nun story was created so that Yang will stay alive. She reasoned out that Long might be already dead but she wanted Yang to live, so asked him to wait for 16 years. After 16 years, by the time Yang knew Long was dead, he would not be so sad. Huang Yao Shi later told Yang that Nanhai Nun never existed and Yang knew he was conned. He went back to the valley as Long had promised him and waited for Long, hoping that she would come. Xiang also went to the valley to stop Yang from committing suicide. Jinlun saw Xiang and adored her, He wanted her to be her disciple but Xiang refused, for her, Yang was the greatest hero and she fell in love with him. Huang went after Xiang and saw Monk Yi Deng, Zhou Buo Tong and Ying Gu. Zhou was rearing Jade Bees and Huang noticed the bees' wings had writings. It wrote 'I am under the Valley's bottom', making Huang wondered who was under the valley. Yang waited for Long for days and he was devastated. He jumped down the valley, hoping to see Long again in the after life. Xiang followed his steps by jumping down but Jinlun could not stop her. Zhou, Huang, Ying and Mok thought he pushed her down and fought with him. Huang and the rest slowly descended down the valley . Xiang made Yang promised her not to do anything stupid and Yang promised her. Xiang was brought up safely where Jinlun was tied and everyone was down the valley. Xiang was tricked to untie Jinlun and was later kidnapped. When everyone except Yang ascended, Xiang was missing and was used by Jinlun to force Guo to open Xiangyang's door so that the Mongols can invade. On the other hand, YAng found the bees were circulating around the lake, he jumped into it and swam towards a cave. In the cave, he found a hidden place, very beautiful and he could feel the presence of Long. When he turned his back, he saw Long. Both Yang and Long were overjoyed to reunite 16 years later. Long had never changed and retained her 18 years old look but Yang grew old. Long told Yang that after she wrote on the stone, she jumped down to commit suicide but found this cave. She ate fish and bee honey everyday for years and her poison had been cured. She wanted to go out and find him but the cave was slippery and she could not go out. She wrote on the bees' wings and hoping someone will come to look for her here, believing Yang was the one. Yang pitied her for staying so long in this cave but Long told him it was ok since she grew up in Gumu too. Both Yang and Long somehow made their way out and exit the cave to help Guo and Huang in the war. Fu went to rescue her sister but was beaten...Yelu was losing too. Then a giant condor came and swept the Mongol army. Long saved Fu from the enemies and fought the Mongols. Yang saved Xiang and finally defeated Jinlun. Jinlun died protecting Xiang, before his death, Xiang called him Master.
When Fu was begging Yang to save her husband, Yang asked her to kneel before him. She did but was quickly pulled up by both Yang and Long. Yang saved Yelu from the army. Fu realized that she had done so many wrongs in the past and repent on her wrong doings. Yang killed the Mongol emperor, retreating the Mongols for a while. The Chinese celebrated their short victory. Xiang praised Long as the most beautiful woman she had ever seen and a true match to Yang. Yang was considered as one of the new Greatest 5, replacing Ouyang along with Huang Yao Shi, Monk Yi Deng, Guo Jing replacing Hong Qi Gong and Zhou Buo Tong replacing Wang Chong Yang. In the end, Guo Xiang watched both Yang Guo and Xiao Long Nu left together with the Giant Condor. They went back to Gumu and was never heard again. The End.

The story starts when Guo Jing, the main character in the previous sequel brought Yang to Quan Zhen Sect to learn martial arts. Yang's father, Yang Kang was the protagonist in the previous sequel but Guo Jing adopted his son. Huang Rong, Guo Jing's wife never really liked Yang because he reminds her of his father. Guo has a daughter, Guo Fu and 2 disciples the Wu brothers. When they bullied Yang for not being able to fight back because he was clueless about kungfu, Yang used the Toad Stance, taught by his god-father, Ouyang Feng who happened to be the protagonist in the previous sequel too. Upon hurting one of the brothers, Huang Rong and Guo Jing were both shocked to see this deadly stance was performed by Yang. They decided to send him off to the sect so that he will not follow his father's footsteps.In the mean time, Li Muo Chou, protagonist in this novel and also the senior of Xiao Long Nu spread the rumours about when Xiao Long Nu turned 18, she will offer her hand in marriage to someone who can defeat her. Xiao Long Nu is the most beautiful girl in Jin Yong universe. She is featured as having long black hair, fair complexion, wears white attire and very ghostly-appearance. She had never stepped out of the Living Tomb aka Gumu since she was a baby. Her kungfu is said to have reached a very high level, being able to defeat anyone and equivalent to any martial experts in Jianghu. Upon hearing this, The Mongol prince, Huodu lead his army to the Gumu so that he can defeat her and marry her. Xiao Long Nu's living weapon, the Jade Bees drove them away. The Mongols used this opportunity to attack the Quan Zhen Sect on the Zhongnan Mountain. During the fight, the Quan Zhen disciples encountered Guo and Yang and mistook them as Mongols. A furious fight began where Guo defeated all of them including the eldest senior, Zhao Zhi Jing. Zhao was ashamed for his defeat and decided to avenge for his embarrassment. Seeing Xiao Long Nu did not come out of Gumu, Li retreated because Gumu was a place full of traps and she had not adapted the Gumu when she was young. The master expelled her from Gumu for poor conduct and she was back to claim the Gumu's highest martial art, The Jade Maiden Sutra.
Back to Yang, he was placed under Zhao as a disciple and since then, he was constantly bullied by his master as a revenge to Guo for embarrassing him in the fight. Yang was only taught academically but not kungfu. One day, he was called to have a friendly fight with other disciples. He was beaten and Zhao scolded him for not improving his kungfu. Zhao did not teach him at all. Yang was furious and used his Toad Stance and severely injured his opponent. Seeing this kungfu, everyone was shocked and Yang ran away, thinking that he killed someone. The other disciples ran after him and they reached the restricted area, the Gumu. The Jade Bees drove the rest of them away but stung Yang and he passed out. An old lady came out and took Yang into the Gumu, healing his wounds using Jade Honey. The old lady is Granny Sun of Gumu. Yang told her his misfortunes and Granny Sun felt sorry for him. She loved him as a dear son and wanted him to stay with her but Xiao Long Nu refused to take him in. According to the Gumu's rules, no man is allowed to enter Gumu or else he will be killed. Since Yang was a small kid, Xiao Long Nu spared his life. She wanted Granny Sun to return Yang to the Sect and asked them not to bully him anymore. In return of their favour, she will hand over the Jade Honey to other disciples as some of them were stung.
Granny Sun took Yang to the Sect but later fought with the disciples. Her kungfu defeated all of them abd when an elder of the Sect came to the fight, Hao Da Tong, he mistakenly injured Granny Sun severely. In the climax of the fight, Xiao Long Nu appeared. Her physical appearance charmed all the males present especially Zheng Zhi Ping, Zhao's junior. Granny Sun asked Xiao Long Nu to take care of Yang forever before she died. Xiao Long Nu agreed and she wanted Hao to commit suicide a tooth for a tooth. Hao refused and Xiao Long Nu fought with him. Her maneuver was so enhanced and she defeated Hao with her skills. When Hao wanted to commit suicide, Hao's senior, Qiu Chu Ji came and stopped him from doing so. Qiu and Long fought and this time, they were both equally skillful. Long broke his sword using her long white sash with golden bells before leaving with Yang and Granny Sun. Qiu and Hao were both amazed of her skills that overpower theirs even at such young age. Long was only 18 that time but both Qiu and Hao were 50s.
Back in Gumu, Lng put Granny Sun in the coffin and Yang became her disciple, the first male disciple in Gumu. Zheng waited for Long outside to resolve the problem, Long told him that Yang was no longer belong to QuanZhen Sect and became her disciple. She also handed the Honey to him to cure other disciples. Zheng was madly in love with Long. Long taught Yang weird and unique kungfu. She told him that Gumu kungfu was created by their founder, Lin Chao Ying who happened to be Long's grandmaster. She hated the founder of QuanZhen Sect, Wang Chong Yang who happened to be one of the Greatest 5 in Jianghu. In a fight, Lin won Wang by tricks and got the Gumu. She created the Gumu kungfu to overpower the QuanZhen kungfu. This explains why Long was able to defeat all the QuanZhen disciples. After several years, Yang grew up to be a very handsome guy and finally finished learning all the Gumu stances, the first level. His kungfu was similar to that of Long's. Long told him that the second level is Yunu Xinjing (Jade Maiden Heart Sutra) but she had not master all. Her grandmaster died before teaching her master all the kungfu so Long's knowledge on this second level kungfu is even limited. When Yang read out the QuanZhen's kungfu script and Long tried to practiced it, she felt that her kungfu grew and this convinced them that QuanZhen's kungfu is a must-learn in the second level.
Both of them studied together and this kungfu needed two people to have its maximum potential. During a practice, Long was injured due to distraction from Zhao and Zheng. They both returned to Gumu and Long thought that she was going to die so wanted to kill Yang first and then commit suicide as she had promised Granny Sun to take care of him forever. Yang ran out of Gumu while Li Muo Chou watched on. Li and her disciple, Ning Bo took opportunity and captured Long in Gumu. Yang returned to Gumu, fearing Long's safety. In the Gumu, Li wanted the sutra but Long refused to hand over. Both Long and Yang ran away from Li with the help of the traps. Long told Yang that Li's kungfu was beyond hers. During the escape, Long learned that Yang fell in love with her and she fell in love with Yang too. Long wanted Yang to escape and she will stay in Gumu with her senior forever by closing the main gate of Gumu. Once it was closed, there were no ways of opening it anymore. Before the door was closed completely, Yang made his return back to Gumu and all 4 of them were trapped. Long and Yang once again fought with Li and Ning. When they temporarily escaped from them, Long asked Yang to put her in a coffin and she will lay rest until she die. Yang joined her in the coffin and discovered that the coffin they were laying in was actually a passage to another secret chamber. They pulled the trigger and both dropped to another chamber, a second exit. On the wall of chamber, illustrated the Nine Yin Manual, written by Wang. This manual contained nine powerful kungfu ever existed. Yang and Long learned the kungfu before exiting. Upon learning, Long's injury had been cured. Li and Ning also exited the Gumu via this secret exit.
Outside Gumu, Yang wanted to explore but Long hesitated as she had never been exposed to the world. During their stay in the woods, Yang encountered Ouyang Feng again and both were thrilled. Ouyang wanted to teach Yang kungfu but afraid that Long will learn so he hit her acupuncture point and she fell on the ground, motionless. Yang did not know that Long was hit by Ouyang and left the place with Ouyang. Long lay on the ground until Zheng saw her. Then, Zheng covered her eyes. Long thought he was Yang. Later, Zheng raped Long. After that, he left and Yang went to Long. Long was happy and thought her virginity was given to Yang. When Yang released her from motionless state, she indirectly confronted him but Yang did not understand. Long thought he did not want to be responsible and left him after hitting his acupuncture point. Yang went to look for Long madly after that and in his journey, he encountered some girls, one of them was Lu Wu Shuang and happened to be Li's second disciple but was escaping from Li after stealing her kungfu manual. Both Yang and Lu escaped from Li. Yang then only knew how a girl felt and knew that Long loved him. He blamed for his stupidity. In his journey, he also encountered Ouyang Feng and Hong Qi Gong. Both were of Greatest 5. They fought for days on the peak of snowy mountains and when both were exhausted, they taught Yang with their highest skill to overcome each other's. Ouyang with his Toad Stance and Hong with his Hit Dog Stance. Finally, Ouyang's kungfu defeated Hong's and Hong could not believe it. Both laughed and hugged before dying. Yang was sad that both were dead and buried them on the peak.
Long also searched for Yang because she missed him. Guo and Huang called for heroes' meeting to defeat the invading Mongol army into China. Long and Yang went to the meeting separately. Guo was thrilled to see Yang and apologized for not being able to visit him for years since he was busy defending the country from Mongols. Huang was suspicious of Yang when he told them that he was clueless of kungfu. Jinlun, the Mongol's greatest warrior came with his Mongol team and wanted to win the Jianghu's leader position. The Mongol won the Chinese by tricks and when Long came, Yang was so happy that he reunited with Long. Then, when the Mongols were closed to victory, Yang offered himself in the battle to help Long to win the title as Jianghu's leader. He fought with Huodu and Da Er Ba. His skillful maneuver amazed everyone and no one had seen this kind of swordsplay before. After winning, Jinlun wanted to challenge Long. Initially Long refused to fight but when Jinlun wanted to fight with Yang, Long replaced Yang for the fight. Both fought and it turned out that Jinlun was more powerful. When Long was losing, Yang went to help which made Guo feared for Yang's safety, went to help too. Finally, Jinlun was defeated and left with his team. Long was then made the leader and Guo wanted to discuss Guo Fu and Yang's marriage with Long since Long was Yang's master. However, Long said that Yang will not marry his daughter and she herself wanted to become Yang's wife. Everyone present was shocked to hear this because during Confucian time, master and student's relationship was considered incest. Zhao then insulted both Yang and Long. They fought and when Long used Yunu Swordplay and Yang used QuanZhen Swordplay, they had a very maximum potential. Guo asked them to stop and asked Yang to leave since Yang insisted to marry Long. Both left and explored the Jianghu. Guo Fu was furious because she was rejected in front of many people and left. The Wu brothers followed. Later Huang ran after her daughter. They encountered Jinlun and the Mongols who were resting and all were captured. Huang was pregnant and could not win all of them. Both Yang and Long assisted. They once again combine Yunu and QuanZhen Swordsplay and realized that this was the highest level of Yunu Xinjing. Jinlun was not match to this swordplay and retreated. Huang was grateful to them and during their stay in an inn. Huang told Long to think of Yang's sake. Yang will be bored if he stayed in Gumu forever and will be looked down by others if he stayed with Long. Long decided to leave Yang and Yang was furious of Huang.
Yang went to search for Long again and Long ended in th Loveless Valley. A middle-aged guy by the name of Gongsun Zhi and also the chief of the valley fell in love with Long and persuaded her to forget Yang by marrying him. In the mean time, Yang met Sha Gu and Huang Yao Shi, Huang's faather and also one of the Greatest 5. Sha Gu mistakenly told Yang that his father's death was actually Huang and Guo's fault. Yang was angry and decided to revenge for his father. He teamed up with Jinlun and Mongols to plan to kill Guo and Huang. In the meantime, Zhou Buo Tong, Wang Chong Yang's junior invaded the valley and stole Long's golden bells. He later invaded the Mongol army and Yang found the bells. He recognized those belong to Long and followed Zhou which lead Yang and the Mongol warriors to the valley. Long decided to marry Gongsun Zhi to forget Yang. In the valley, Gongsun's daughter, Lu er fell in love with Yang and assisted Yang to claim back Long. Finally when Long wanted to be with Yang again, Gongsun Zhi revealed his true and cruel self. Yang and Long fought with Zhi and he was defeated in the fight but during the fight, Long was attacked by Loveless Poison by the Loveless flowers in the valley. They lost in the fight and Zhi detained Yang. Seeing only one last cure left, he poisoned Yang by throwing flowers on him and made Long marry him. Later, he pushed both Yang and Lu er to the Crocodile Lake. Both encountered Qiu Qian Che, mother of Lu er and she revelaed how Zhi pushed her down to this lake too. Yang helped them to escape the lake. Yang also stole the last cure and planned to give it to Long. When Long and Zhi was about to get married, Yang, Lu er and Che arrived. Zhi was ahocked to see the alive Che for he thought he had killed. Yang fed Long with the cure and lied to her that he already consume it. When both Yang and Long wanted to fight with Zhi, Yang could not continue because of the poison and Long seek revenge for him and fought with Zhi. Zhi was more powerful than Long and she was losing to him. Che taught Yang how to defeat Zhi and finally, Yang defeated him, Che also blinded Zhi's right eye by shooting an almond seed from her mouth.
Zhi quickly left the valley after that. Che had another cure which she kept before she was pushed into the lake. She wanted Yang to bring Guo and Huang's head for killing her brother in the exchange for the cure. She let Yang ate half of the cure which accelerated the poison attack. Yang and Long then went to Xiangyang City to kill both Guo and Huang. Defending the city, Guo did not know of Yang's intention to kill him but Huang was suspicious. Although Yang wanted to kill Guo several times, he couldnt do it. When Huang confronted Long, Long admitted that they had a mission to kill them. Huang also learned about Yang's poison. Huang agreed to Long that after she gave birth to her unborn child, she will let Long kill her and decapitate her for the exchange for the cure. Finally, Yang decided not to kill Guo and Huang. Both Long and Yang defended the city when the Mongols invaded. Jinlun set fire in the city the day Huang gave birth. Huang gave birth to a twin, a girl and a boy. The girl who was first given birth was named Guo Xiang and the younger baby boy was named Guo Puo Luo. Long carried Xiang to safety because of the fire. Yang distracted Jinlun and then both Long and Yang encountered Jinlun. They fought and Jinlun wanted to snatch the baby from Long knowing that she was Guo's daughter. In the fight, Long handed the baby to Yang so that Yang could exchange the cure with the baby but was later snatched by Li who joined the fight. She left with the baby.
In the quest for the baby, Yang and Long separated and the Wu Brothers were killing each other over Fu's attention. Their father, Wu San Tong, disciple of Yi Deng Monk (one of the Greatest 5), asked Yang's help to resolve the problem. Yang said that Fu and him were together and asked them to give up. He also performed several Taohua Island's Kungfu to convince them that Huang and Guo will be handing over their daughter to him. Upon hearing this, Long was devastated and went to see Guo Fu. She handed over the Couple Swords (Junzhi and Chunu Swords) to Fu so that both Yang and Fu will be together. Fu was confused and ran after Long. Long eavesdrop Zhao and Zheng's conversation and realized that it was not Yang who slept with her but Zheng. Long was again devastated. Fu overheard and shocked. When Zhao and Zheng left Xiangyang City, Long hunted for them. Again, Yang and Long separated. Fu got to know the Wu Brothers gave up on her and left with their father. She confronted Yang and Yang admitted to have drive them away. She was carrying Junzhi Sword with her. In the middle of the conversation, she tarnished Long's name, saying that she was not innocent, slept with men and lost her virginity. Yang slapped her for tarnishing his beloved's name. In fact, Yang had already the slightest idea that Fu might be right since Long indirectly confronted to him about 'the incident at that night'. Fu was furious and slayed Yang's right arm. Then Fu was scared and hide in the room. Huang ang Guo got to know about this and went to see Yang but what was left was his right arm on the floor. Guo wanted to disarm Fu for this but Huang protected her. Both Huang and Fu left the city and in the meantime, searched for the lost Xiang.
Zhao cooperate with the Mongols to take over China but Zheng refused. The Mongols then agreed to promote Zhao as the leader after taking over the sect, one of the most influential sects in China, this aids their conquer on China if they control QuanZhen Sect. Meanwhile, Long was waiting for the right time to strike since the Mongol army had many great warriors. Poor Yang passed out in stranded land but was later rescued by a giant Condor. The Condor fed him with snakes' gall bladder and his wound recovered fast. He later knew that this condor was a friend to a very lonely powerful warrior, Dugu Qiubai (translated-Alone and begged to be defeated). This Dugu's skill is very high and he could even use a stick as a sword. With the help of condor, Yang learned the Dugu's kungfu and picked a very heavy but blunt sword. This sword became Yang's main weapon in the future. Yang successfully master the kungfu and his skills were beyond others, probably Long's too. During the hunt down, the Mongols wanted to use Zhou Buo Tong to control the sect but when he refused, Jinlun poisoned him with spiders. Long came to help and both Jinlun and Long fought equally powerful. Long could not defeat Jinlun and Jinlun could not harm Long too. In the cave, Zhou expelled his poisons and taught Long to use both swordplays by herself. Long, being smart was able to master it. Left hand play QuanZhen Swordplay and right hand play Yunu Swordplay. Long's kungfu reached the highest and advanced form of Yunu Xinjing, becoming the first to utilized two swordplay in a peace harmony. She drove Jinlun and the Mongols with her bees. Zhou was interested in her conjuring-bees technique. Long taught him and Zhou stole the honey bottle from her so that he could conjure bees anytime.
Huang saw Li with a baby and followed her, convinced that the baby was Xiang. Li and Huang fought and finally Huang won. In the middle of the fight, Yang stole the baby and appeared in front of Fu. Fu was scared and told Huang. Yang put the baby in a box near the secret exit of Gumu and looked for Long. Long hunted both Zhao and Zheng until they reached the sect. The 7 elders of the sect was meditating and the Mongols captured the Sect. Zhao killed whoever who disobeyed him and when he was about to kill Zheng, Long appeared and wanted to kill Zheng herself. Zhao bullshit and made Long wanted to kill him first before Zheng. Jinlun protected Zhao but this time, Jinlun was having difficult times due to the advanced swordplay Long had mastered. Finally, Long defeated Jinlun for the very first time. Everyone was shocked to see her great improvement in kungfu. The rest of the Mongol warriors helped to fight with Long but Long was able to fight them all. At the climax of fight, Jinlun threw a sharp -blade-wheel to Long. Zheng threw himself towards the wheel and was cut. Long turned to stab the oncoming wheel but stabbed Zheng instead. Zheng asked her to forgive him before dying in front of her. The elders came out and saw Long killed Zheng. Qiu Chu Ji hit Long and Long flew down the hill. Yang grabbed the seriously injured Long and both were happy to see each other again. Long learned that Yang's love for Fu was fake and she was also saddened that his right arm was slayed. The elders wanted to know why Long killed Zheng but Long only said he deserved it. Jinlun wanted to kill them but Yang was powerful already. Da Er Ba helped his master and stayed faithful but Huodu left his master. Seeing Da Er Ba being so faithful, Yang spared their life. Long and Yang then went to the Chong Yang Palace and Yang asked Long's hands in marriage. Long cried and asked Yang not to treat her so good since she was not 'as pure as he thought'. Yang did not care what happen and only ask Long to be his wife, he wanted to take care of her for the rest of his life. Although the elders prohibit them from getting married in the sacred place, they ignore and proceeded the ritual.
After the marriage, they escaped from the palace and return to Gumu with the baby. Zhou reached the palace and told the elders that Long was a nice lady. It was Zhao who betrayed the country by cooperating with Mongols. Zhao who was trapped in a big bell by Zhou, was forced to tell the truth when Zhou conjured Jade Bees to sting him. He told the ellders that Zheng deserved to die because he broke the fundamental rule of the sect, that was to have intimate relationship (you know what i mean). The elders then decided that Zheng's death was his fault and would not blame Long for that. Zhao died in the bell due to constant bee stinging. Yang helped Long to heal her wound but to no avail. Fu, Yelu Qi, Huang and Li reached Gumu. Since Huang just gave birth, she could not immerse in water. Li went into Gumu with Fu and Yelu. Li left them trapped in the Gumu and looked for Long. When Li was about to kill Yang and Long, Yang borrowed her internal strength to break through Long's acupuncture point. Li's internal strength was poisonous and Long was again poisoned. Yang fought with Li and put her into a coffin. Then, both Yang and Long hide in another coffin but with Yang's clothe exposed. Fu and Yelu found Xiang and when they reached the coffins, Fu mistook the coffin where Long and Yang were hiding was Li. She used Li's poisonous needles and flew them into the coffin. The cure disrupted and Long's poison cannot be cured. Yang was furious and took Xiang away from Fu, never return. Li escaped from Gumu again. Both Fu and Yelu escaped from Gumu without Xiang. Long advised Yang to return Xiang to them, pitied on the child to grow in Gumu. Long wanted to explore Jianghu before her death. Yang and Long went out and enjoyed themselves when they encountered Monk Yi Deng. The Monk promised Yang to cure his poison since his junior was the Divine Doctor but Long's poison was hard to cure.
It was later found out that QuanZhen Sect was destroyed by the Mongols. Huang, Fu, Yelu, Xiang, Monk Yi Deng, Long, Yang, Wu brothers, Wu San Tong, Divine Doc, Zhu, Lu Wu Shuang and her cousin Chen went to Loveless Valley to claim the cure. Che refused to give the cure. Li cooperate with Zhi. Zhi wanted to be the chief again and Li wanted the cure since she was poisoned too. Che asked Lu er to give fake poison to Yang but Lu er secretly gave the real one to Yang. Zhi snatched the cure from Yang and Lu er begged her father to return. Zhi later killed Lu er, her own daughter. Yang was furious and hit Zhi. All ran after Zhi since he had the cure. Che was devastated over her daughter's death. In the mean time, Li killed the Divine Doc but before his death, he lay next to a special herbs, cure to the poison. Monk Yi Deng discovered this. Long fought with Zhi to get back the cure and she won in the battle. She took the cure to Yang and asked him to eat it. Yang threw the cure to the valley since Long's poison cannot be cured, he was planning to die with her. Li was surrounded by the rest and no where to go.Finally, she gave up on her kungfu in front of everyone. The Loveless Valley was then on fire. Li ran towards the fire because she missed her beloved man. Her act was like a beautiful moth flying towards fire, destroying itself. A famous Chinese proverb. Long cried for her senior's death. After that, Che lured Zhi to the Crocodile Lake and die with him. Yang, Long and the rest stay at the valley for a while and Yang named a beautiful flower over Long called Long Nu Flower. That night, Long had something else in her mind and the next morning, Long had gone missing.Yang searched for her madly and accused Huang for driving her away again. Then, they saw a huge stone at the edge of the valley. It was Long's writing. Long said she was gone and would meet Yang again the same place after 16 years. Yang was devastated. Huang comforted Yang that maybe the Nanhai Nun took her away. She was a divine in curing poison and only emerge in Jianghu every 16 years. She did not let men to step on her Nanhai Island or else they will be killed.
Since Yang wanted to meet Long again 16 years later, he consumed the herbs and soon he recovered. He taught Lu the Yunu Xinjing since she was a disciple of Gumu too. By the way, Ning Bo was killed by Li when Li used her to cushion the poisonous flowers. Yang left and wandered around with the Condor for 16 years. He did many good deeds including punishing the Song Dynasty corrupted officials. He met Ke also and Ke told him how corrupted his father was and his death was his own fault. Yang accepted this and never seek revenge for his father anymore. Guo Xiang was a beautiful 16 years old girl. Fu was married to Yelu. Guo Xiang heard of Condor Hero and wanted to meet him. Yang then discovered that she was the baby Xiang and on her birthday, gave her 3 surprising presents. Da Er Ba also killed Huodu for betraying Jinlun, then he went back to Mongol. Jinlun was practicing a powerful kungfu to defeat Yang. Yang met Huang Yao Shi on Xiang's birthday and both had friendly match. Huang was worried and told Xiang that Nanhai Nun story was created so that Yang will stay alive. She reasoned out that Long might be already dead but she wanted Yang to live, so asked him to wait for 16 years. After 16 years, by the time Yang knew Long was dead, he would not be so sad. Huang Yao Shi later told Yang that Nanhai Nun never existed and Yang knew he was conned. He went back to the valley as Long had promised him and waited for Long, hoping that she would come. Xiang also went to the valley to stop Yang from committing suicide. Jinlun saw Xiang and adored her, He wanted her to be her disciple but Xiang refused, for her, Yang was the greatest hero and she fell in love with him. Huang went after Xiang and saw Monk Yi Deng, Zhou Buo Tong and Ying Gu. Zhou was rearing Jade Bees and Huang noticed the bees' wings had writings. It wrote 'I am under the Valley's bottom', making Huang wondered who was under the valley. Yang waited for Long for days and he was devastated. He jumped down the valley, hoping to see Long again in the after life. Xiang followed his steps by jumping down but Jinlun could not stop her. Zhou, Huang, Ying and Mok thought he pushed her down and fought with him. Huang and the rest slowly descended down the valley . Xiang made Yang promised her not to do anything stupid and Yang promised her. Xiang was brought up safely where Jinlun was tied and everyone was down the valley. Xiang was tricked to untie Jinlun and was later kidnapped. When everyone except Yang ascended, Xiang was missing and was used by Jinlun to force Guo to open Xiangyang's door so that the Mongols can invade. On the other hand, YAng found the bees were circulating around the lake, he jumped into it and swam towards a cave. In the cave, he found a hidden place, very beautiful and he could feel the presence of Long. When he turned his back, he saw Long. Both Yang and Long were overjoyed to reunite 16 years later. Long had never changed and retained her 18 years old look but Yang grew old. Long told Yang that after she wrote on the stone, she jumped down to commit suicide but found this cave. She ate fish and bee honey everyday for years and her poison had been cured. She wanted to go out and find him but the cave was slippery and she could not go out. She wrote on the bees' wings and hoping someone will come to look for her here, believing Yang was the one. Yang pitied her for staying so long in this cave but Long told him it was ok since she grew up in Gumu too. Both Yang and Long somehow made their way out and exit the cave to help Guo and Huang in the war. Fu went to rescue her sister but was beaten...Yelu was losing too. Then a giant condor came and swept the Mongol army. Long saved Fu from the enemies and fought the Mongols. Yang saved Xiang and finally defeated Jinlun. Jinlun died protecting Xiang, before his death, Xiang called him Master.
When Fu was begging Yang to save her husband, Yang asked her to kneel before him. She did but was quickly pulled up by both Yang and Long. Yang saved Yelu from the army. Fu realized that she had done so many wrongs in the past and repent on her wrong doings. Yang killed the Mongol emperor, retreating the Mongols for a while. The Chinese celebrated their short victory. Xiang praised Long as the most beautiful woman she had ever seen and a true match to Yang. Yang was considered as one of the new Greatest 5, replacing Ouyang along with Huang Yao Shi, Monk Yi Deng, Guo Jing replacing Hong Qi Gong and Zhou Buo Tong replacing Wang Chong Yang. In the end, Guo Xiang watched both Yang Guo and Xiao Long Nu left together with the Giant Condor. They went back to Gumu and was never heard again. The End.

Bersih 3.0
I decided to spend the whole day doing revision for my chemistry paper on next Monday but I cant help to write this because Bersih 3.0 is going to be held nationwide in Malaysia at 2pm. Well, in case if you dun know, bersih is a Malay word which means Clean. It is citizen's campaign to have a 'cleaner' election for this coming Election. In case if you do not get what i mean by cleaner election, Malaysians think that there were conspiracies in the previous elections. Which is why citizens want to have a democratic country by organizing this street rally, not riot. Previously, Bersih 2.0 had been held last year and the number of people turning up for this campaign was huge! Hence, i bet Malaysians turning up for this Bersih 3.0 is even more because more of us are conscious about the current nation-issues.Well, I would like to blog a bit about Bersih campaign. It is hard to deny the fact that all Malaysians must have heard of this towards-better-future move. Even I myself who seldom read paper and just love to log into Facebook know about the campaign. This Bersih thing was started by Datuk Ambiga, an Indian woman who happened to have reach a high status in the community-the title as Datuk, equivalent to Datuk Michelle Yeoh, our famous Hollywood star. A prestigious person who started this campaign shows how seriously bad is Malaysia. For your information, this campaign is NOT a riot...it is just a street rally where public unarmed citizens walk the street, demanding for cleaner elections. They do not hold any dangerous weapons and they rally with peace. Malaysians are very civilized, we have never cause any riots during rally.
Lets see how the government reacted. During Bersih 2.0, troops of police were sent to guard the place where citizens rallied and they demanded the citizens to dismiss. Knowing of their rights, the citizens refuse to leave and stayed for greater good. When the polices' order is disobeyed, they used water canon to shoot the citizens, making them wet and ran. Some of them are even children. Water canon is not enough by the way, they used eye-irritating smoke to dismiss the crowd. What are we? Terrorists? We paid the tax and we support these government officials indirectly and this is what we get in return? We are being treated as terrorists. Malaysian polices are pro-government.
During last year campaign, there were people claiming that polices threw smoke bomb into the Tung Shin Hospital in KL. However, the force denied the fact. Several medical experts who happened to be prominent doctors( there were 8 of them) stood out to clarify the denial. They told the press that the force threw the smoke bomb into the hospital compound. These professionals are not of any political parties, they are just am. Neutral and said what is right and what's not. When the force was accused by these professionals, government promised to probe the accusation but in the end, nothing comes out. It is a norm that in Malaysia, when an issue was constantly debated and becomes hot, the government said they will probe the issue but in the end, it fades and vanishes into thin air.
This time, Bersih 3.0 is a bigger campaign because it is held nationwide in major cities like KL, Ipoh, Penang, Johore etc. Those who are pro-Bersih will be wearing yellow to support the campaign. The government reaction this time is even more exaggerated. They blocked the roads in KL for 4 days until the Labour Day next Tuesday so that citizens will not able to march to the Independence Square (Dataran Merdeka). This kind of act makes Independence Square to have its genuine meaning lost where people have their rights to change have been restricted and stripped off. Since last night, people had already started to gather for today's campaign showing how desperate we are to have a cleaner elections. Isn't it clear that we are having peace rally but not riots? Riots happen when the citizens fight with the force, starting fire, throwing bombs, killing each other and so much more. I cant see anything like this happening here. Get to know the difference between peace street rally and riots. Furthermore, this time we are not even walking the street, we will be sitting on the ground to rally. Lets see if the government will use smoke bombs or water canons to disperse the sitting crowd or not. If they do, Im speechless because we are totally harmless and they are treating us like terrorists. Use them when you fight for the country, not against your own people. Lets stay tuned for today's news. Once again, Bersih 3.0 is gonna be held at 2pm nationwide.

In the mid of Exams
Im currently having my mid term and will end next Monday. Last paper is Chemistry. Did my Fundamentals of Molecular Biology exam last night, and the paper was okay. Whatever i studied came out and was kinda relieved during the 1 hour 30 minutes of the exam. Tomorrow will be sitting for Genetics and hopefully the outcome will be the same. For this sem, my credit hour is not heavy and i have to focus to read on 3 subjects only so no reasons for my grades to be going downhill. Either it maintains at 3.89 as it was for my first sem or higher than this pointer, 4.00 perhaps? Lolx...anyway, i had always put alot of pressure on myself. I have very high requirements especially on academic wise. Well although i dont usually score 4 flat every of my exam, at least I did my best and never regret on that. Anyhow, its time for revision...Jiho signing off now and there will be no pictures in this very blog this time...Ciaoz!

Introducing my Family
Introducing the Yips...the surname of my family is Yip which means Leave in Cantonese or can be pronounced as Ye in Mandarin. Actually, im proud to be a Yip since this surname is easy to remember and unique. Well, how does this surname originated? According to an unknown source, during the civil war in ancient China which is a few hundreds or maybe thousand of years ago...this surname arose in the midst of chaos. Forgotten which dynasty and who was the emperor, probably before China was united as one. There were three brothers with the surname Zhong, ran from enemies and in the middle of their escape, all three were separated. The middle brother climbed on a tree to hide from enemies. He adopted the surname Ye(Yip in Cantonese) to start anew. Youngest brother hide in a cave and adopted the surname Siew, to turn a new leave too. Since then the Zhongs, Yips and Siews are distantly related and marriage between these families is not encouraged. This is from an unknown source and cannot be trusted 100%. In my Yip family, I have two loving parents and 3 sisters (Kay, Yen and Eloise).
Kay used to study in USM (Science University of Malaysia) and now works in Unilever based in Kuantan. Yen is currently studying in UTM (Technological University of Malaysia), now in Johore. I study in UKM (National University of Malaysia) and youngest sis, Eloise studies in Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman, Kampar. Together with this blog, I will upload pictures of my family. Enjoy ya!

Charmed series-My fav
Okay, i blogged a little about The Walking Dead in my previous blog...the reason for the 'little-blogging' is to not reveal too much about the series so tht u guys can find it out ur own. However, in this very blog, i will blog about my favourite series, Charmed. Kinda popular back then, maybe some of you dont know what is it about. Well, here the blogging goes.
Charmed is a series produced and aired in 1998. American-based story that set in San Francisco. It featured about 3 beautiful and young sisters The Charmed Ones, Prue (Shannen Doherty), Piper(Holly Marie Combs) and Phoebe (Allyssa Milano) Halliwell. They reunited in their family manor after 6 months of their grandma's death. At the night of full moon, Phoebe found a huge green leathery tomb in the attic and read the first incantation aloud, summoning their powers. The prophecy is fulfilled when each sister received a power-unique from each other. Prue as the eldest and the strongest, received telekinesis-ability to move objects with your mind, Piper the second sis received the power to stop time and Phoebe received the power to see into the future. The sisters fought various of evil forces while trying to live a normal life in the big city.
Story featured by beautiful ladies will usually be accompanied by charming men. Andy Trudeau (TW King), Prue's love of life was a cop and occasionally got involved in unsolved murder cases which related to the sisters. His suspicion on the sisters grew and finally discovered their secret of being witches. The sisters' powers grew and Prue was able to channel her power via hands instead of squinting her eyes. In the end of Season 1, Andy was killed by a demon, Rodriguez when the sisters were tricked with time loop, manipulated by Tempuss. The sisters vanquish the 2 demons but had to pay the price of losing Andy. There were speculations that TW King left because he couldnt cooperate with Shannen Doherty.
In Season 2, the sisters moved on and Piper was in love with Leo (Brian Krause), their guardian angel although their love is heaven-forbidden. Prue also got her second power-astral projection ( to be in 2 places at one time)In Season 3, the sisters were attacked by a ferocious demon, Belthazor, sent by upper level demons in the Underworld. Belthazor had a human form, Cole Turner (Julian MacMohan) and ended madly in love with Phoebe. Phoebe also got her second power-levitation. When the sisters found out that Cole was Belthazor and tried to vanquish him, Phoebe set him free and asked him not to come back, lying to her sisters that he was dead. When Prue and Piper found out about the lie, they were mad at her especially Prue. Cole came back to the sisters' life but as a close alliance to The Charmed Ones. Piper and Leo got married after several obstacles. In the end of season 3, Piper got her second power and the most powerful among the sisters, molecular combustion. She was able to explode anything including demons. The last episode of Season 3 also marked the departure of Shannen Doherty from the series. Prue was killed by a demon Shax, The Source's personal assassin in the attempt to save an innocent and also from the trick of time loop again. She was never revived. Speculations were made on her departure, it was said that she had cat fight with Allyssa Milano and the producer, Brad Kern. She was to leave or Milano would.. However, Doherty still own percents of Charmed's profit after she left. You see, Prue was featured as a very powerful witch because her death required 3 powerful demons to accomplish it-Shax, Tempuss, The Source.
Season 4 started with devastated Piper and Phoebe trying to conjure dead Prue back to life but instead drew a mysterious beautiful lady to them. This lady is known by the name Paige Matthews and she had connections with the sister's witchcraft. She attended Prue's funeral and mourned her death too. Phoebe had a vision of her being killed by Shax and protected her. Unexpectedly, she had Leo's powers-an angel's powers. She escaped from Shax's deadly attack. When Phoebe asked Leo and Cole to probe further, This lady turned out to be their long-lost half sister. Their mother had her with an angel.
The new sister joined the coven and vanquish Shax once and for all, avenging for Prue. The story continues with the sisters vanquishing The Source and Cole becoming the new Source. Phoebe was turned evil by the demon baby she was carrying but later lost it to another demon. The sisters killed Cole in this season. In Season 5, Cole came back to win back Phoebe but to no avail, he became the strongest evil being ever existed. No known way of killing him. Finally, in the trick of time loop, he was again vanquished by the sisters. Piper gave birth to a very powerful son, Wyatt Matthew Halliwell. In the end of Season 5, they were visited by a young handsome guy, Chris Perry (Drew Fuller) and claimed himself as someone from the future. According to him, the future was turned dark and evil because Wyatt was turned evil. He wanted to save the future by preventing Wyatt from turning evil. Leo also got promoted as an Elder after vanquishing the Titans and Chris became the sisters' new guardian angel.
In Season 6, mysterious Chris had many secrets and made Leo to be aware of him and even suspicious towards him. Wyatt was closed to him and until then, they discovered that Chris was actually the second son of Piper who she had not conceive yet. In an episode where Piper was about to give birth to baby Chris, an evil Elder Gideon killed adult Chris, making Leo devastated over his son's death. However, holding baby Chris in his hands, he promised that he will make sure the future is still there by preventing Wyatt from converting to the other side.
In Season 7, not much on family matters but in the end of the season, the sisters fought against Zankou, a very powerful upper level demon, imprisoned by The Source many years ago. He desired to kill the sisters. With the indirect help from Prue, the sisters finally vanquish Zankou. It was said that Prue taught Leo an Astral Projection Spell before her death, to utilize her second power in a form of spell, in case they needed it. Piper, Phoebe and Paige used the spell and confused Zankou, bought them time before vanquishing him. All 3 sisters then played dead by disappearing from the manor and when the cops invade the house, led by Darryl Moris, they assumed them to have die in the explosion. Piper, Phoebe, Paige and Leo disguised as different people and walked away from the manor. This episode is the last for Morris because the the budget was limiting.
In Season 8, all 3 sisters were assumed dead and funerals were held for them. Only their father knew about the secrets. Paige encountered a new witch, Billie and she has a power sort of same like Prue's. Paige recruited her as an apprentice of The Charmed Ones and taught her spells and potions to help them vanquish demons since they were assumed dead and sorta retired. They did not want any sides to figure out of their existence but still wanna protect innocents. Billie was searching for her lost sister, Kristy, kidnapped by a powerful demon years ago. All Piper, Phoebe and Paige felt of losing identity and decided to resume the identity by cooperating with cops, saying their deaths were fake and they were working for the cops. When Billie and Kristy reunited, Kristy brainwashed Billie by telling her to form their own coven and kill The Charmed Ones to become The Ultimate Ones. Kristy has the power to start fire. When both sisters combined their powers, they could vanquish a demon that even The Charmed Ones couldnt. Seeing them as a threat, Piper, Phoebe and Paige re-emerged as powerful witches. The Angel of Destiny froze the now human Leo (he clipped his wings) to encourage the sisters to fight better. Another reason for budget limiting. In the end of Season 8, Piper, Phoebe, Paige, Kristy and Billie conjured the Hollows on both side. The Hollows possessed both side and two sides became beyond powerful. They fought and finally a massive explosion occur in the manor. Phoebe, Paige and Kristy died in the explosion. Devastated Piper used a cupid, Coop's ring and traveled through time.

It featured about 3 beautiful and young sisters The Charmed Ones, Prue (Shannen Doherty), Piper(Holly Marie Combs) and Phoebe (Allyssa Milano) Halliwell. They reunited in their family manor after 6 months of their grandma's death. At the night of full moon, Phoebe found a huge green leathery tomb in the attic and read the first incantation aloud, summoning their powers. The prophecy is fulfilled when each sister received a power-unique from each other.

His suspicion on the sisters grew and finally discovered their secret of being witches. The sisters' powers grew and Prue was able to channel her power via hands instead of squinting her eyes. In the end of Season 1, Andy was killed by a demon, Rodriguez when the sisters were tricked with time loop, manipulated by Tempuss. The sisters vanquish the 2 demons but had to pay the price of losing Andy. There were speculations that TW King left because he couldnt cooperate with Shannen Doherty.

Prue also got her second power-astral projection ( to be in 2 places at one time)In Season 3, the sisters were attacked by a ferocious demon, Belthazor, sent by upper level demons in the Underworld. Belthazor had a human form, Cole Turner (Julian MacMohan) and ended madly in love with Phoebe. Phoebe also got her second power-levitation. When the sisters found out that Cole was Belthazor and tried to vanquish him, Phoebe set him free and asked him not to come back, lying to her sisters that he was dead. When Prue and Piper found out about the lie, they were mad at her especially Prue. Cole came back to the sisters' life but as a close alliance to The Charmed Ones. Piper and Leo got married after several obstacles. In the end of season 3, Piper got her second power and the most powerful among the sisters, molecular combustion. She was able to explode anything including demons. The last episode of Season 3 also marked the departure of Shannen Doherty from the series. Prue was killed by a demon Shax, The Source's personal assassin in the attempt to save an innocent and also from the trick of time loop again. She was never revived.
