Huanjian Qiqing Lu

Huanjian Qiqing Lu (還劍奇情錄), literally Tale of the Sword Returned and the Unusual Romance, is a wuxia novel by Liang Yusheng, first published as a serial between November 1959 and May 1960 in the Hong Kong newspaper Hong Kong Commercial Daily. It is the first instalment in Liang Yusheng's Pingzong series, followed by Pingzong Xiaying Lu.

The novel has been described as a "wuxia adaptation" of the 1933 play Thunderstorm by Cao Yu. Set in early 15th-century China, it centres on a swordsman who abandons his pregnant first wife and later manipulates his second wife into helping him steal a coveted swordplay manual. Two decades later, his past returns to haunt him when the children from both marriages fall in love, unaware they are half-siblings, leading to a tragedy that destroys his family.
