These eight divine kung fu had different characteristics and cultivation methods. Moreover, there were many stories and characters about these divine kung fu in the novel, so it was called "Eight Dragons".

Who was the saddest character in the novel " Demigods and Semi-Devils "?The most lamentable character in the novel,"The Eight Dragons and Dragons", was Xu Zhu.
Xuzhu is a fictional character in the martial arts novel "Tianlong Ba Bu" written by Mr. Jin Yong. He is an innocent, kind and pure boy. He was born into a martial arts family, but he was not a martial artist. He did not have martial arts skills or status. He was originally the son of Emperor Duan Zhengchun of Dali, but because Duan Zhengchun's wife, A'Zhu, framed Duan Zhengchun for political benefits, Duan Zhengchun died. Duan Yu and his mother, A'Zhu, were also demoted to slaves.
Xuzhu was forced to leave Dali and come to the grasslands of Outer Mongolia. He met many interesting people there, such as Zi, Wu Yazi, Duan Yu, and others. He also gradually learned martial arts and became a powerful swordsman. However, he had always felt that he was an orphan without parents or a home.
In the end, Xu Zhu decided to return to Dali to find his biological parents. However, he found that his parents had long passed away, and he could only look for the illusory "Mr. Right" in the wild. After going through all kinds of hardships, he finally found his biological parents, but he found out that they were too old to take care of him. Xuzhu was very sad, but he also understood the impermanence and preciousness of life.

Which version of Demigods and Semi-Devils is better?Tianlong Ba Bu is a martial arts novel written by Mr. Jin Yong. It has been published in many different versions. Different versions of the Eight Dragons and Dragons have different storylines, character settings, writing styles, etc. Therefore, readers can choose which version to read according to their preferences.
If you like Mr. Jin Yong's martial arts novels, then the " Demigods and Semi-Devils " series should be one of the must-read works. Different versions of the series have been tried out, but the most well-known version is the 1984 TV series of the same name filmed and broadcasted by Hong Kong TVB. In addition, there are other versions of the book, such as a TV series of the same name filmed by Taiwan's Eastern Television Station in 1992 and a single edition of the same name published by a Chinese publishing house in 2003.
No matter which version it was, it was a good book that was worth reading. It could bring a different reading experience and feeling.
Was it the Legend of the Condor Heroes? Or was it the [Demigods and Semi-Devils]?The answer to the question of whether Legend of the Condor Heroes came first or Demigods and Dragons came first was not simple because both works were martial arts novels created by Mr. Jin Yong, but their publishing order was not fixed.
Mr. Jin Yong's first martial arts novel, The Legend of the Condor Heroes, was published in 1966, while The Eight Dragons and Dragons was published in 1969 after The Legend of the Condor Heroes. Therefore, if they were to rank them according to the order of publication, then Demigods and Semi-Devils should be ranked before The Legend of the Condor Heroes.
However, this was not absolute. In some reading experiences, readers might find some similarities in the plot and character settings between The Legend of the Condor Heroes and The Eight Dragons and Dragons. Sometimes, they might even treat them as different chapters or parts of the same work. Therefore, the order in which the two works should be read may vary from person to person.
