He is saved by Xiaolongnü, a mysterious maiden of unknown origin, and becomes her disciple. They live together in the tomb for many years until Yang grows up.

Throughout the story, their love meets with several tests, such as the misunderstandings that threaten to tear them apart and the encounter with Gongsun Zhi.

His adventures gradually mould him into a courageous pugilist, whose prowess matches the Five Greats of his age. Yang serves his nation by helping the Han Chinese of Song defeat the Mongol invaders. At the end of the novel, he is finally reunited with Xiaolongnü and they are recognized as heroes.

《神鵰俠侶》在金庸作品之中，有一個十分獨特的地位，那就是金庸的小說之中，固然每一部、每一篇都在寫男女之情，但是卻沒有一部寫得像《神鵰俠侶》那樣錯綜複雜、那樣淋漓盡致、那樣透徹入微、那樣感人肺腑、那樣全面、那樣深入。以楊過、小龍女的感情為中心，引出其他人物在情海的狂波巨瀾之中翻滾掙扎、爭鬥糾纏的經過，幾乎已經可以概括了世上所有男女間各種形態的情愛。

Divine Eagle, Gallant Knight is a wuxia novel by Jin Yong (Louis Cha). It is the second part of the Condor Trilogy, and was preceded by Eagle-Shooting Heroes and followed by The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber. No Condors appear in the book, only eagles, so referencing Condors is simply a poor English translation that has stuck for many years. The story was first serialized between 20 May 1959 and 5 July 1961 in the Hong Kong newspaper Ming Pao. The story revolves around the protagonist Yang Guo and his lover Xiaolong in their adventures in the jianghu (also called the wulin, the community of martial artists), which disapproves of the taboo love between master and apprentice.
