襄陽・樊城の戦い
In Jin Yong's "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber", the Emei Sect is founded in the early Yuan dynasty by Guo Xiang around the same time as the Wudang Sect. Guo Xiang is the sole descendant of the Guo family from "The Return of the Condor Heroes" after the Battle of Xiangyang. She escapes from Xiangyang with the Heaven Reliant Sword (), becomes a powerful martial artist and roams the "jianghu" as a "youxia". At the age of 40, she becomes a nun and founds the Emei Sect. Abbess Fengling becomes her successor, who in turn, is succeeded by Abbess Miejue.
