王重陽
Huang Yaoshi is a fictional character in the wuxia novel "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and its sequel, "The Return of the Condor Heroes", by Jin Yong. He is one of the Five Greats of the "wulin" (martial artists' community) during the Song dynasty, alongside Wang Chongyang, Hong Qigong, Ouyang Feng and Duan Zhixing. He is nicknamed "Eastern Heretic" for being an unorthodox radical who behaves as he wishes without showing any regard for formalities or moral ethics. He loathes the dogma of traditional rites in Chinese society and admires only genuine honour and pure love. As such, he is often regarded by his contemporaries as a cultural heretic. His nickname may be translated to "Eastern Evil" because the character "xié" () in his nickname also refers to "evil" and "unorthodoxy" in "jianghu" terminology.
