When residing in Taipei, he pursued his academic endeavors in the English Department of Tamkang English Junior College, yet he ultimately elected to forgo completing his studies in order to dedicate himself to a career as a novelist.
In the year 1960, he penned his inaugural novel, "Cangqiong Shen Jian", which subsequently earned him recognition as one of the most distinguished "wuxia" writers of his time.
As of 1971, his literary works began to be adapted into motion pictures, with "Xiao Shi Yi Lang" ("Swordsman at Large"),directed by Chui Chang-Wang, marking the inaugural adaptation.
In the year 1976, renowned film director Chor Yuen embarked on a series of adaptations of Lung's novels for Shaw Bros. Film Company, with the initial installment being "Liu Xing Hu Die Jiang" ("Killer Clans").
The resounding success of these cinematic endeavors, directed by prominent filmmakers such as Lo Wei, Wong Fung, and Chan Fan-Kei, led to an increased demand for Lung's novels, ultimately resulting in their widespread sale prior to his untimely passing due to cirrhosis and esophageal hemorrhage, precipitated by his struggles with alcoholism.
Throughout his prolific career, Lung penned an impressive total of nearly 70 novels, with more than 40 films and several television series subsequently being based on his works.
