Mount Hua Sect
See also: Mount Hua Sect- Xianyu Tong (traditional Chinese: 鮮于通; simplified Chinese: 鲜于通; Mandarin Pinyin: Xiānyú Tōng; Jyutping: Sin1-jyu4 Tung1), nicknamed "Shenjizi" (traditional Chinese: 神機子; simplified Chinese: 神机子; Mandarin Pinyin: Shénjīzǐ; Jyutping: San4-gei1-zi2), is the promiscuous and immoral leader of the sect. Hu Qingniu once saved his life when he was infected with Golden Worm Poison by Lady Miao, whom he previously had a relationship with. Hu Qingniu's sister Hu Qingyang fell in love with him while he was recovering and eventually married him. However, he forced Hu Qingyang to die so that he can marry the daughter of his predecessor, even though she was already pregnant with his child. Xianyu's wicked deed was discovered by his senior Bai Yuan, but Xianyu killed the latter before the secret was revealed and he framed the Ming Cult for the murder. During the battle at Bright Peak, Xianyu attempts to kill Zhang Wuji, who is aware of his dirty secrets, but is infected with the Golden Worm Poison again. Zhang defeats him and exposes his past atrocities to the wulin (martial artists' community). Xianyu Tong dies at the hands of He Taichong incidentally during the fight.
- Xue Gongyuan (traditional Chinese: 薛公遠; simplified Chinese: 薛公远; Mandarin Pinyin: Xuē Gōngyuǎn; Jyutping: Sit3 Gung1-jyun5) is one of Xianyu Tong's students, who is just as corrupted as his teacher. He and several others were injured by Golden Flower Granny and headed to Butterfly Valley to seek treatment from Hu Qingniu. They are healed by Zhang Wuji, but later betray him and make cannibalistic attempts on him and Yang Buhui. Zhang tricks them into consuming a poisonous broth, which kills them.

Famous quotes containing the words mount and/or sect:
“I mount the steps and ring the bell, turning
Wearily, as one would turn to nod good-bye to Rochefoucauld,
If the street were time and he at the end of the street,
And I say, “Cousin Harriet, here is the Boston Evening Transcript.””
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
“Thus Pyrrhonism is not a sect of people who are persuaded of what they say, but it is a sect of liars.”
—Antoine Arnauld (1612–1694)
